Three Kingdoms: Heir of Wolong, my father-in-law is Guan Gong

Chapter 131 Lu Xunyi bluffs Deng Zhi, Zhao Yun uses an ambush in Xiling (seeking pursuit)
  Yidu County.

Deng Zhi, the governor of Yidu, who received the order from Zhuge Qiao, strictly ordered the guards of Xiling and Weishan not to leave the city without orders.

Deng Zhi even personally led troops to guard Yidao City Pass.

Most of the soldiers and horses in Yidu County are county soldiers, and their combat effectiveness is not strong.

When Lu Xun saw that there were troops garrisoned at Yidaocheng Pass, he ordered his generals Li Yi and Xie Jing to lead 3,000 infantrymen to capture Xiling.

"Public Security Guard Shiren has surrendered the city; Jiangling City has also been captured by Lu Huwei, why didn't you surrender earlier?"

"I'm waiting for 10,000 soldiers, and your city gate can only have 1,000 soldiers at most. Even if you have a city gate with a favorable location, how can you stop my army from knocking on the gate?"

"My lord, Marquis Wu, is a courteous and virtuous corporal, and has a benevolent nature. I don't want you to die here in vain. If you are willing to surrender, my lord will definitely treat you kindly."

Hearing the call of Jiangdong soldiers, the soldiers at the city gate had different expressions: How could the county soldiers with less than a thousand soldiers at Yidao city gate resist the 10,000 Jiangdong soldiers in the city?

Deng Zhi saw that the morale of the army was fluctuating and couldn't help but sneer: "With Zhuge in charge of Jiangling City, how can Lu Meng take it easily?"

"The Jiangdong soldiers will be here today, as Chief Zhuge expected."

"Although there are many soldiers in Jiangdong, in Baidi City behind us, there are 50,000 soldiers led by the king personally waiting."

"As long as we hold on for one day, we can wait until the king's troops come to our aid. These Jiangdong soldiers are all due to your military exploits!"

When they heard that Liu Bei was in Baidi City, all the soldiers were surprised and happy.

"Prefect, is your Majesty really in Baidi City?" a soldier asked anxiously.

Deng Zhi laughed: "If the king hadn't been in charge of Baidi City, how could I have replaced Fan You as the governor of Yidu?"

"Don't be suspicious, just listen to my instructions and wait for me to deceive these Jiangdong soldiers. I will delay as much time as possible so that you will suffer less from military disasters."

Seeing that Deng Zhi was taking his time, all the soldiers also breathed a sigh of relief.

Deng Zhi looked at the Jiangdong soldiers below the city and shouted loudly: "The matter of surrender is of great importance. Please allow us to discuss it."

When Lu Xun saw this, he did not attack the city immediately.

Lu Meng's order to Lu Xun was to stop Liu Bei, not to capture Yidao City Pass.

"Do you want to wait for Liu Bei's army to come for reinforcements?"

"Hmph, if Liu Bei really had 50,000 troops, why would he stay in Baidi City?"

"How can you hide this little trick from me?"

"I only need to block the waterway so that Liu Bei cannot go to Jiangling City, and Zhuge Qiao's plan will be useless."

Seeing that Lu Xun had not attacked the city, Deng Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and silently calculated the time for Liu Bei's arrival.

Xiling.

Li Yi and Xie Jing arrived with water infantry.

Seeing that no one was patrolling the towers of Xiling City and the city gates were wide open, Li Yi couldn't help but become suspicious: "It's strange, why is Xiling City so quiet when my army has been here all the way? No one is patrolling the city gates?"

Xie Jing smiled and said: "He must have fled after hearing the news. I know Chen Feng, the guard of Xiling City, and he is a coward."

In Jiangdong, Li Yi and Xie Jing had the reputation of being brave enough to be worthy of all men.

Although this nickname was as heavy as the water in Jiangdong, Xie Jing believed it.

If this person relied on his own martial prowess, he would naturally look down on others, just like Pang De looked down on Guan Yu's martial prowess.

Li Yi had been following Lu Meng for a long time and was more cautious than Xie Jing. He said, "Even so, we should not be careless. I will lead the water troops to guard the river, and you will lead the infantry to persuade them to surrender."

"If you encounter an ambush, I will lead the troops to cut off your retreat, and then you will lead the troops to fight back, break the ambush first, and then seize Xiling City."

Xie Jing laughed: "Li Yi, you and I are brave enough to be brave, so how can we be so timid?"

Li Yi looked solemn: "The Governor often says that those who are good at fighting should not be careless unless they fight bravely and ruthlessly."

Xie Jing saw that Li Yi was so cautious, so he picked up the knife and walked away: "Just stay by the river. I destroyed Xiling City, and you are not allowed to share the credit."

Inside Xiling City. The guard Chen Feng was very nervous. When he received Deng Zhi's order, Chen Feng had been uneasy.

There are only 500 county soldiers in Xiling City. Even if we can't defend it, how long can we hold it?

When six large ships appeared on the river, Chen Feng felt that he could no longer hold the knife.

There are at least 3,000 people in each of the six large ships.

Three thousand people came to attack the small town of Xiling where 500 guards were stationed. What's the difference between that and an elephant stepping on a rabbit?
  If Deng Zhi hadn't told Chen Feng that Liu Bei was in Baidi City when he sent the order, Chen Feng wouldn't have known whether he would have the courage to stay in Xiling City.

Under the advice of several grassroots counselors, Chen Feng decided to imitate Zhao Yun's strategy of suspecting soldiers during the Battle of Hanshui.

It's just that Chen Feng didn't have the courage to stand alone at the city gate like Zhao Yun.

So Chen Feng withdrew all the soldiers from the city tower and ordered the residents in the city not to make any noise and not to allow anyone or any livestock to appear in the streets.

Then he opened the city gate wide and removed the gate guards.

"General, will General Wu really be fooled?" Chief Xiling asked nervously.

As the county magistrate of Xiling, if Chen Feng hadn't put a knife on Chief Xiling's neck, Chief Xiling would have wanted to take the money and run away.

Chen Feng suppressed the anxiety in his heart and shouted softly: "You are so cowardly to be a county magistrate. If you say anything else, I will kill you."

After scolding Chief Xiling, Chen Feng suddenly felt less nervous.

now.

The woods outside Xiling City.

Zhao Yun led two thousand soldiers to hide here.

Originally, Zhao Yun was going to enter Xiling City, but the spies said that the gate of Xiling City suddenly opened wide, and then the soldiers at the city gate also withdrew.

However, the strange thing is that none of the people in the city fled out of the city.

As soon as Zhao Yun saw this situation, he understood the intention of the Xiling City defender.

During the Battle of Han River, Zhao Yun played like this.

"This Chen Feng does have some strategy, but he is too courageous."

"If he didn't ride alone at the gate of the city, how could General Wu run away in fear?"

This thought just passed by for a moment, after all, not everyone has Zhao Yun's bravery.

Xie Jing led his troops to the gate of Xiling City. The deputy general said cautiously: "General, I'm afraid there is an ambush in the city. Why don't I lead the troops in first."

Xie Jing sneered: "How many ambushes can there be in the small town of Xiling?"

"If that idiot Chen Feng dares to appear at the city gate, how much more can I hesitate? There is no one at the city gate now, how can he bluff me?"

"Enter the city quickly, take the head of that cowardly little thief Chen Feng, and ask for credit from the right commander."

Following Xie Jing, he drove his troops into the city.

Several grassroots counselors in the city were suddenly stunned.

"Why did Wu Bing enter the city?"

"Aren't they afraid of an ambush in the city?"

"This is wrong. General Huwei scared Cao Bing away. Why are Wu soldiers not afraid?"

Chief Xiling even cried and shouted: "General, we have been harmed by you!"

If we could defend the city gate for a while, we can no longer defend it even if we want to!

Chen Feng was so angry at being scolded that he kicked the head of Xiling away and shouted: "The soldiers are coming to stop me, but I'm not dead yet! Beat the drums and shoot arrows!"

After Xie Jing entered the city, Zhao Yun outside the city also gave a stern order: "Xiang Chong and Zhao Rong, you two form a formation outside the city to intercept; Du Lu and Liu Ning, follow me into the city to kill the general!"
