A century-old family that runs through the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 26
In a wilderness far away from Quzhou City, a large army was marching.

Lu Zhen was sitting on the horse. He had just received a secret report from the inside, confirming the situation in Quzhou City. Zhu Wenzheng's dissatisfaction with Zhu Yuanzhang had really reached its peak, and he had a conflict with two extremely senior veterans, and Zhu Yuanzhang Without knowing it, he actually thought that his nephew was very loyal to him, so he let him lead the army with confidence.

It’s really asking for death.He couldn't help but sigh, it was only fitting that King Wu would gain this world.

Lu Zhen is not a fool. In fact, he is a battle-hardened general and will not fall into the trap easily.

However, the problem is that Zhu Wenzheng really wanted to rebel before, and even leaked some internal information about Xiwu to Zhang Shicheng. His credibility is really high.

The most important thing is that Zhu Yuanzhang had previously focused his main efforts on dealing with Yuan Ting and Chen Youliang, but even so, Zhang Shicheng was defeated repeatedly when he sent out large armies.

Use one hand to hold him down and beat him.

Zhang Shicheng knew very well that if he did not take action and take risks, there would be almost no possibility of a comeback.And Zhu Wenzheng is his only chance.

Therefore, Lu Zhen brought an army of [-], which was quite a large force for the Soochow regime. Zhang Shicheng hoped that Lu Zhen would ruin the belly of Soochow.

The few sentries of the Western Wu Army have been killed by the light cavalry he sent. At this time, Quzhou City has become blind. They are like a blind man. Although they hold a sharp blade in their hands, they do not know where the enemy will appear from. , when to appear.

Moreover, their backs were not safe. Lu Zhen was very confident that she could conquer Quzhou and march into Jiangxi Province.

This also means that he will become Zhang Shicheng's well-deserved number one general!

Night had fallen, and the time agreed with Zhu Wenzheng was coming soon. The Soochow Army finally ended its rest and began to march towards Quzhou City.In order to avoid being discovered, they had stopped a considerable distance away from the city, but now, it was time to set off.

This journey was wonderful for Lu Zhen. Although he tried his best to suppress his restless heart, he still couldn't help but fantasize about what kind of rewards he would receive if he helped King Wu achieve great things.

A horse is treading on Nanchang, and a foot is treading on the sky. Xu Da and Chang Yuchun can only become his stepping stones.

Thinking of the humiliation of being held down and beaten by the Xiwu Army over the years, and thinking that their territory would be turned upside down, Lu Zhen couldn't help but grin.

He seemed to have seen his former enemies Zhu Wenzhong, Xu Da and others being tied up with ropes and pushed under the tent, while he, the No. 1 under the King of Wu, sat proudly in the main seat, looking at these group of his men. Defeated general.

If Zhu Yuanzhang is defeated, King Wu will definitely ascend the throne as emperor.

I've made such a great contribution, so it's not too much to confer a king with a different surname, right?

Just when he was thinking about it, Quzhou City was already in front of him.

They were facing the East City Gate, which was the agreed location for Zhu Wenzheng to open the city gate.

However, even from far away, one can feel the unrest in the city at this time.

There were shouts of killing in the city!Apparently something happened!
However, the sergeants on the top of the city did not resist the approaching Soochow Army. This was very puzzling. It seemed that everything was still going according to plan.

Lu Zhen immediately stopped fantasizing.He ordered his men to gallop forward and shouted to the city:
"We are guests invited by the Governor. Let's get out of the city quickly!" There was a commotion at the top of the city, and then a man leaned out. From his clothes, it could be seen that he was a servant.

"General, enter the city quickly! It has been revealed that the governor of my family wanted to defect to the King of Wu. He is now fighting with the traitor generals Tang He and Yu Tonghai. Please provide support as soon as possible!"

That anxious voice, combined with the killing sound of gongs and drums behind him, was full of convincing power. At the same time, the city gate slowly opened.

Lu Zhen no longer cared about safety at this time. He rode his horse to the front of the army and probed to see clearly what was going on inside the door.As a veteran, he is still very cautious.

That's right, although the night was deep, Lu Zhen could vaguely see the shadows of some houses through the bright moonlight.

At the top of the city, the servant’s urging voice became even more urgent:

"General, my chief governor is almost unable to withstand the situation. The situation is critical, please go to the general to support us as soon as possible!"

This sentence helped Lu Zhen make up her mind.

"Enter the city quickly!" he ordered.With so many houses, it would seem that they are in the city.

There is chaos in the city. Isn't this the time to take the city?You know, this is 7 people!Lu Zhen might not be able to defeat him in a head-to-head confrontation. If he could take advantage of the chaos and annihilate him in one fell swoop, the Jiangxi Province would be empty and he would get twice the result with half the effort!
Following his order, the Soochow Army immediately poured into the city, and the vanguard took the lead bravely!They already knew that the Soochow army was in chaos at this time. After being beaten by them for so many years, the Soochow soldiers also held their breath. Moreover, this long-lost victory, it didn't take much to think about it, and they knew that there would be a big reward!

Now we are not going to fight, but to grab the credit!Even a small soldier knows how much advantage it will have if 10 people of our own enter the battlefield when the other party is fighting internal strife!
The soldiers in the vanguard shouted, with expressions of excitement and fanaticism on their faces, holding weapons tightly in their hands, and marched forward. Even the generals could not restrain their inner joy and kept urging:

"Hurry, faster!" The voice became sharp with excitement.

The soldiers of Soochow rushed towards the place where the fire and noise came from in the distance. That was the place where they harvested their merits. As they went deeper and deeper, their neat steps echoed in the empty city——

wrong!An empty city?What about the people?
Quzhou is a big city. Even if the people hid because of the war, it would not be like the ghost town it is now.

The first soldiers to advance into the city had already marched more than half the distance. However, what puzzled them was that the inner city wall that should have been in Quzhou City seemed to be missing.

Finally, a soldier discovered the clue:
"In front, what is that!"

The fire suddenly extinguished and the noise stopped, but through the moonlight, they saw a tall city wall standing in front of them. At this time, a large group of Wu soldiers holding torches, gongs, drums and various weapons were marching out of the city gate in an orderly manner. Exit.

Looking at the ground again, there are no corpses or blood stains at all!
Fell into a trap!This was the reaction of the leading generals.

But what is this wall?Wengcheng?How big is Quzhou City?They spent most of the day running around in a barbican city?

The Xiwu Army did not leave them any time to think. As the last Xiwu Army soldier withdrew, the city wall in front of him suddenly became brightly lit. Countless sergeants revealed their robes, and there were burning rockets on the crossbows in their hands. The black cannon exuded the aura of destruction.

"put!"
