Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 406 The Second Battlefield
On the seashore a hundred miles east of Xiou, if any Xiou people pass by at this time, they will find the original barren land, but at this moment, hundreds of ships, large and small, are moored densely.

With the dim lights on the boat, I saw a small boat slowly approaching one of the largest ships.

When the people on the big boat saw the small boat approaching, they quickly lowered the ropes and pulled the people on the boat onto the big boat.

"General Zou has worked hard, come with me, Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time." The waiter on the boat said to this man.

This person was Zou An, the General of the East. A month ago, Zou Ling, who was far away in East Vietnam, received a message from Ziying, asking her to send an elite army to assist him in attacking Xiou by sea.

The people of Dongyue live by water. In the past, some of the nine tribes of Dongyue lived on fishing and hunting. Naturally, there was no shortage of sea boats. After receiving the letter from Ziying, Zou Ling immediately selected [-] elite soldiers. , conscripted all the big ships.

And regardless of the strong opposition of the ministers, he insisted on personally leading the team to rush over to the coast.

……

Zou An heard the words and hurriedly followed into the cabin.

Entering the cabin seems to step into another world immediately. The brightly lit interior is in stark contrast to the thick night outside.

He quickly took two steps forward, saluted the pretty woman sitting in the middle, and before he could speak, he heard the woman at the top ask anxiously, "Have you seen him?"

After Ziying wiped out the rebellion of Zou Sheng and others with iron and blood methods, Zou Ling's rule in Dongyue was like an iron pass. With the help of Jiang Ge and other Qin troops, Zou Ling's prestige in Dongyue has also become more and more popular over the years. high.

On weekdays, these people have never seen the superior Yue Jun act like such a little girl.

Upon hearing this, Zou An was taken aback for a moment, but then realized who Yue Jun was referring to.

"King Qin is very good. Compared with the time when he was in Dongyue, he was a bit more elegant." Zou An continued: "Your Majesty, King Qin ordered us to dock at midnight tonight, and launch a sneak attack on Xiou from the rear."

"Did he ask me?" Zou Ling looked at the big man and continued to ask expectantly.

Zou An choked when he heard this.

Zou Ling insisted on coming together, King Qin didn't know at all, and when he went, Lord Yue repeatedly told King Qin not to tell King Qin that she came together. The military situation was urgent, but he hurried back after saying a few words to King Qin. King Qin Then it's time to ask this.

But as a man, and a man with many wives and concubines in his family, he certainly knew that if he could not answer this question well, it might bring "endless" troubles to His Highness King Qin.

"Forget it, let's make Mr. Yue happy." Zou An thought as he turned his head.

"King Qin also misses your lord very much, and asked about my lord's current situation in detail." Zou An said bravely.

Sure enough, after Zou An finished speaking, Zou Ling immediately put on a very happy look.

"By the way, when did you say the war would start?"

Zou An: "..."

……

Now, not only the Baiyue troops who came to help, but also all the troops in Xiou itself overwhelmed the Yushui bank and confronted the Qin army.

In the center of Xiou, there are only a few hundred Lu Jia's guards guarding it.

For the coast in the south, there is not much attention.

In the middle of the night, accompanied by the sound of rolling waves, the Dongyue boat with all lights extinguished slowly approached the shore.

In order to prevent getting too close to be discovered by the South Vietnamese, after lowering the anchor to fix the ship, all the small boats were released, and began to transport sergeants back and forth between the ship and the shore.

That night, although midnight had passed, Lu Jia still tossed and turned on the bed, unable to sleep.

In fact, he hasn't had a good night's sleep for a long time these days, and he is always worried that the soldiers of all ethnic groups on the front line will abandon him and surrender to the Qin army that day.

However, when he thought that his daughter was on the front line, Lu Jia was relieved a lot.

He knew his daughter's ability, and there shouldn't be any major problems with her.

However, as soon as he closed his eyes, he heard a noise coming from outside the house.

Just as Lu Jia was about to get up and go out to see what was going on, he heard a "bang", and the door he had closed was slammed open vigorously.

Taking a closer look, the person who broke in turned out to be one of his most trusted guards, but at this moment he was covered in blood, his entire right arm was cut off at the root, and the blood was still flowing continuously.

"My lord, let's go, the Qin army is coming from the sea." The guard said to Lu Jia, enduring the pain.

After the guard finished speaking, Lu Jia's face turned pale.

"Sea! When did Qin Jun go to sea!"

However, before Lu Jia could figure it out, he heard the guard continue to say anxiously: "My lord, go north quickly and meet with my army. I will wait for the lord's queen!"

Hearing the guard's anxious words, Lu Jia also understood the seriousness of the matter, grabbed his coat, and rushed out of the house without thinking about putting it on.

When he came outside, Lu Jia realized that his stronghold had been breached from behind without anyone noticing.

"Eastern Yue!" Seeing the clothes of the people outside, Lu Jia gritted his teeth and said these three words.

His guards just thought that it must be the Qin army who attacked them, but East Vietnam and South Vietnam had always been at odds with each other. When he was young, Lu Jia even led the West Ou Army and participated in the war between the Cangwu tribe in South Vietnam and the Minyue tribe in East Vietnam.

Therefore, at a glance, he recognized that the clothes of these troops were the unique style of the East Vietnamese Army.

It's just that Dongyue has already surrendered to the Qin State, and it can't be too wrong to say that they are the Qin Army.

However, at this moment, form was better than people, and under the cover of night, Lu Jia leaned down against the corner of the wall and followed the ordinary people fleeing everywhere, and carefully ran out of the settlement.

However, Lu Jia, who had just walked out of the stronghold, found sadly that the outside of the settlement's exit had been surrounded by Dongyue people, and there was no hope of escape at all.

Ever since, the majestic Lord Xiou, together with the ordinary people of Xiou, became the captives of the Dongyue people.

At this time, the hundreds of guards who stayed in the lair were already dead and surrendered. Under the surprise attack of the Dongyue people with overwhelming force, the battle ended with the disastrous defeat of the Western Ou side not long after it started.

However, Zou Ling couldn't be happy when the war was over, because after interrogating several captives, she already knew that Lu Jia, the Lord of Xiou, should be in this camp, but when they rushed into Lu Jia's residence, they had already left. The building is empty.

If Lu Jia hadn't fled in the dark before the East Vietnamese Army blocked all the exits, then Lu Jia must still be hiding among these prisoners.

However, how to find out who is Lu Jialai from this group of people is a problem.

"Whoever can provide information about Lu Jia, the whole family will not die!" After learning about Zou Ling's confusion, Zou An said, "That's easy", and yelled at the captured Nanyue.

There are two meanings in Zou An's words. One is that they are likely to be executed. This is normal in the behavior of the Qin army during the Tu Sui period. Before Ziying, the Qin army had always implemented a policy of exterminating the Nanyue people. .

The second is that as long as you sell your lord Lu Jia, not only can you not die, but you can also save your family.
