Han Xiang

Chapter 540: The Army Arrives at Wu Jun, Here Comes the Dragon

Zhu Huan's mind went blank.

who I am?where am i?What am I going to do?
In the blink of an eye, Zhu Huan suddenly woke up.

He turned around to leave, but the sharp blade on his neck shone coldly.

Zhao Fan and Hao Meng, one on the left and one on the right, blocked the way with swords in their hands. Zhu Huan had no time to draw his sword.

"General Zhu, since you are here, why bother leaving in a hurry?"

"what do you want?"

Zhu Huan followed Sun Quan to conquer Hefei. Although he did not recognize Long Xiang on the throne, he recognized Xu Ding standing next to him, so he knew that this was not Han Dang's story, and his heart was shocked like a huge wave.

After hearing this, Long Xiang was noncommittal and replied with a smile: "General Zhu seems to recognize me? Sun Quan was rebellious in Jiangdong and committed many killings. Long was ordered to punish the evildoers. It's time to change the fate of Jiangdong."

"You are a dragon"

Zhu Huan originally thought it was a certain Hefei general, but when he heard that Long Xiang was intimate, his hands trembled with shock.

"So you didn't know me?"

Long Xiang was stunned for a moment, and then added: "Then let me introduce myself. Long Xiang, whose name is Yunqi, is the prefect of Lujiang and the general of Han Polu."

"You took advantage of the situation and attempted to sneak attack Wu Jun? Why didn't you dare to use real swords and guns? This is not what a hero would do."

Zhu Huan swallowed as he spoke. He wanted to slap himself twice.

She secretly blames herself for thinking that there is something wrong. How could Han become a new recruit so quickly? How could she be so stupid?
Long Xiang was not angry when he was rebuffed. Instead, he replied calmly: "Yes, soldiers are crafty. Your master, Sun Quan, often plays sneak attacks. General Zhu also asked this question? If you don't do this, then it's ' "Be strict with others and be lenient with yourself";
Let’s talk about half a year ago.You invaded Hefei with [-] troops. Don’t I have real swords and guns to fight against the enemy?As for the so-called hero, what does it have to do with me?Long had no intention of becoming a hero. "

"Ah this."

Zhu Huan was speechless and suddenly saw Han Zong who was nodding in agreement. He stared at him and cursed sternly: "Han Zong, you actually surrendered to the enemy and tricked me into a trap. You are really just a common man. What do you look like?" Going to see Han Yigong?"

"I"

Long Xiang grabbed Han Zong and replied meaningfully: "General Zhu is so confused. Since I can bring the troops here, it means there are no obstacles on the road. General Han has surrendered. Do you think General Han will resist stubbornly?" As the saying goes, good birds choose trees to roost in. Sun Quan is not a wise ruler and a benevolent king. How about General Zhu working with me to achieve great things?"

"joke."

Zhu Huan snorted coldly and said to him: "With more than ten thousand people, you are still trying to seize Jiangdong? I advise you not to go against the will of heaven. The main force of the Marquis of Wu will come back at any time. By then, the trapped Wu land will be unable to advance or retreat. It is better to retreat to Huainan early." .”

"Hahaha" Long Xiang laughed: "In the past, Sun Ce swept across Jiangdong. I wonder how many soldiers and horses he had? Originally, I didn't know how to capture Wu County because there were more than ten thousand soldiers and horses of Wucheng, but General Zhu was so 'righteous' tonight, Long How can I live up to your hard work?"

"just kill me!"

Emotions such as shame, self-blame, and anger all surged into Zhu Huan's heart.

He didn't want to fall in love with someone like Han Zong, so he turned around and showed that he would rather die than surrender.

Long Xiang winked at Zhao Fan and said with a smile: "General Zhu is in a mood, probably because he is tired from the journey. Bo Chang will take him down quickly and settle him down. Don't neglect him."

"only."

Zhao Fan verbally agreed with Long Xiang and led Zhu Huan out of the tent with one hand.

Long Xiang then encouraged Han Zong: "You have made great achievements today. After I take Jiangdong, I will go to the court to ask for credit for the general. Wuxian will have to rely on your efforts in the future, so go and have a rest."

"only."

Han Zong clasped his fists and nodded in agreement, then left with his thoughts on his mind.

He had no ability to hide his emotions and anger, so not only was he easily spotted by Long Xiang, but he was also clearly seen by Xu Ding who was standing next to him.

As soon as Han Zong disappeared into the night, Xu Ding cupped his fists and reminded Long Xiang: "Yunqi, I don't think Han Zong is sincere, so it's best to be careful with him."

"Haha."

Long Xiang responded with a smile: "Before we parted ways in Liyang, Zijing reminded me that Zhu Huan suddenly followed me today. I thought it was him who had tipped off the news. Fortunately, it was a false alarm. This person has some uses. Let the tiger guards keep an eye on him. ”

"Yes." Xu Ding nodded in confirmation, and said to Long Xiang with excitement: "Yunqi is really blessed. I was worried that Wu Cheng would be hindered, but I didn't expect this result. Now that we have captured Zhu Huan, Wu Cheng The Cheng garrison must also use rat-proof weapons, so that there will be no more trouble from strong enemies in the surrounding area, and the capture of Wu County will be just around the corner."

"I didn't expect it to go so smoothly. This is probably the so-called destiny. The Sun family has been intercepted by me. It's time to end it early."

Long Xiang spread his hands with a very relaxed expression.

Without the worries of the Wucheng garrison, Long Xiang was no longer in a hurry during the remaining days of marching, and advanced towards Wuxian while resting.

In the 11th year of Jian'an, the first day of the first lunar month marked the beginning of the new year.

The city of Wu County was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and the soldiers and civilians were celebrating the New Year. Suddenly, the city defense army began to impose martial law.

The originally relaxed atmosphere suddenly became tense.

When Sun Ce first captured Wu County, many powerful powers such as Yan Baihu harassed him. Later, when Sun Quan succeeded to the throne, Sun Hao seized the throne. Wu County faced many military threats.

Although Zhu Zhi was not good at government affairs, he was proficient in military affairs and paid special attention to the defense of the government office.

So when the officers and soldiers guarding the city reported the military situation, Zhu Zhi immediately ordered the city gates to be closed and the streets to be cleared, regardless of whether they were friendly troops, Shanyue, or bandits.

Long Xiang observed through the telescope and saw the quick response of the Wu County defenders. He lamented that the county seat was indeed unique and different from other cities on the road.

Not long after, the Hefei army marched in formation and slowly arrived at the gate of Wu County.

Hearing that there were nearly [-] troops outside the city, Zhu Zhi had to go to the front line to check. On the way, he met Zhang Zhao, an important minister of Tuogu, and they boarded the south gate tower together.

Looking at it at a glance, the soldiers and horses under the city did not display banners, and their clothes were different from those of Jiangdong soldiers, but the military formation was neat and tidy and did not look like grass bandits.

Zhu Zhi then frowned and asked Zhang Zhao: "Zibu is well-informed, does he know the details of the people on this road?"

"So many soldiers and horses are coming from the south. I really don't know."

Zhang Zhao stroked his beard and shook his head, then murmured to himself: "Ordinarily, if Shanyue was causing trouble, Xiu Mu (Zhu Huan) would have blocked it in Wucheng, and we could only wait and see what happened."

"Well, the soldiers in the city are uniformly dressed, which doesn't look like Xiu Mu's troops at all."

While Zhu Zhi was muttering to himself, suddenly the first few riders of the formation moved forward, and he was surprised to find Han Zong among them.

"Zibu, look at that."

Zhu Zhi was surprised and wanted to ask Zhang Zhao for confirmation, but saw that the other party's expression was even more exaggerated. Zhang Zhao's eyes were wide open, his mouth was slightly open, and his beard stroking gesture seemed to be frozen, and he was hanging in the air in a grasping posture.

Zhang Zhao did not respond to Zhu Zhi, but pointed to the city with his finger and said hesitantly: "Junli, the dragon is coming."

"What? Where is the dragon?"

Zhu Zhi's tone was filled with surprise.

"No. It's Long Xiang."

Zhang Zhao shook his head and corrected himself, then danced and added: "Hefei Longxiang! How could he come here?"

"Long Yunqi?"

Zhu Zhi also opened his eyes like bells and looked at Zhang Zhao in disbelief.
