Chapter 220 Wan County Falls
The sound of dense footsteps came from the Dabie Mountains.

In a cottage, thousands of armed and powerful bandits are waiting in formation.

"Report..."

A bandit in leather armor hurried forward, walked into the room and did not dare to look around at the leaders, and quickly saluted the man sitting in the first place: "Qi Haoshuai, according to the exact news, the chief of Chaohu is indeed Wanxian Jia. Jia Nian, the third son of the clan"

"Jia Nian?" Anger appeared in Chen Ce's eyes.

He reached out and hammered heavily at the table.

砰

A huge sound resounded in the room, and all the bosses, big and small, couldn't help but tremble.

"Okay, what a third son of the Jia family, what a Lujiang prefect." Chen Ce's face was full of evil spirits.

A leader looked at Chen Ce: "Smart, I heard that this son of the Jia family swallowed thousands of water thieves in Chaohu Lake with a hundred first-level soldiers. Now he is named the head of Chaohu Lake by Lu Kangpifu."

"Judging from the blood feud between us and him, if it goes on for a long time, there may be disasters," the boss said loudly.

A person sitting next to him added loudly: "Chaohu Lake is the only place for the people of the Central Plains to go south. Moreover, where the land is fertile, there are also a steady stream of refugees. The stronger the power, the more it is a sure thing."

"Don't say anything about the future, just say now, I heard that the chief of Chaohu Lake has more than a thousand soldiers and horses in his hands. If it weren't for Ruxukou and a group of water thieves, the sound of fighting might have already sounded in this mountain at this time "A leader said loudly.

All the leaders nodded one after another, and their voices rushed like a tide.

"I still need to work hard to loot if I want people. Not only are there huge casualties, but sometimes I lose a lot of people. Compared with this Chaohu Lake, it's a world of difference."

"The population of Chaohu Lake is constant. If we give this Mr. Jia time, will we have a good life in the future?"

"Great handsome, according to the humble opinion of my subordinates, how about going directly to Chaohu Lake?"

A series of voices rang in his ears, and Chen Ce gradually frowned.

"No way," a burly man dressed as a scribe shouted loudly.

Everyone looked over one after another, showing puzzled expressions.

"Although we have formed a blood feud with the Jia family, the current plan is how to solve the food crisis in the village. After all, winter is about to begin. If there is no large amount of food, the more than [-] people in the village will be killed. Starving to death. It is not a wise move to rush to Chaohu at this time," the scribe said.

All the big and small leaders heard these words, and they all kept silent.

The scribe continued: "Now that the imperial court has failed in its conquest of Gepo, the Lujiang garrison has been ordered to help Runan. If the prediction is correct, the counties in Lujiang County must be empty, and we should attack the counties aggressively at this time. Take the Lujiang government treasury The best way to survive this winter is to save food.”

"As for the Jia family in Wanxian County, there is no threat in a short period of time due to the Ruxu saliva thief," the scribe explained.

Chen Ce nodded slowly, as if he approved of the scribe's words: "Mr.

"Forget it, let's stay with Jia Nian for a while, let's trouble that old man Lu Kang first." Murderous intent appeared in Chen Ce's eyes.

His eyes became sharper: "It's just that Mr. I don't know which county town we should start with?"

The "Wan County" scholar said with confidence.

Chen Ce was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "Okay, I'll start from here in Wan County."

"Send down the order and fix it for a day. Tomorrow, two thousand soldiers and horses will be ordered to attack Wan County with this commander. As for sir, please lead more than a thousand people to sit in the water village and wait for the opportunity." Chen CE ordered.

All the leaders got up from their seats one after another, shouting in unison: "No!"

……

Intensive footsteps came from a continuous military camp outside Runan City.

A soldier in armor ran wildly into the military tent, rushing in before wiping off the sweat from his forehead.

The soldiers of "Newspaper, Lujiang County Emergency Report" walked into the tent and handed the bamboo slips in their hands to Lu Kang.

Lu Kang quickly took the bamboo slip into his hand and quickly opened it.

Looking around, his face involuntarily sank.

砰

The bamboo slips were thrown heavily on the table by Lu Kang, and the anger in his eyes was filled.

"What a Chen Ce, to take advantage of the main force of our Lujiang County rushing to help Runan, suddenly go out to attack Wan County in a big way," Lu Kang said coldly.

Lu Ji, who was sitting on a seat beside him, couldn't help but blurt out in surprise, "Father, the troops left behind in Wan County are only a hundred or so. I'm afraid it will be difficult for Chen Ce to go south this time."

"It's not just Wan County that can't resist, even Shu County, the prefecture, has less than [-] defenders." Lu Kang said, but there was no great worry on his face.

He moved his fingers lightly twice, and slowly put his back on his back: "This Chen Ce has been entrenched in the mountain for a long time, and he has long been a trouble in his heart. If he dares to come out of the mountain now, he will be wiped out in one fell swoop."

"It's a pity that the army was dragged in Runan, and it was difficult to return to help. Otherwise, this time, this disaster will be eliminated in one fell swoop," Lu Kang said slowly.

The indignation also gradually calmed down with the voice.

"Seeing that winter is about to begin, one of the reasons they went out this time is for food, and the other is not because of fear." Lu Kang gradually cleared his mind.

Lu Ji looked puzzled: "Fear? The Lujiang army is far away in Runan, so what is there for him to be afraid of?"

"Father, it's not too late. I beg my father to send two thousand soldiers to help Wan County immediately." Lu Ji stood up from his seat and said loudly.

Lu Kang shook his head: "The army's marching speed is slow, and when we rush back to Lujiang, it's not just Wan County that will fall."

"It's not certain that by then Chen Ce will have swept away most of the population and food in the group, and escaped into the mountains," Lu Kang said.

Lu Ji looked embarrassed: "This?"

"You immediately gallop to Chaohu Lake in a starry night, and let the governor of Chaohu Lake send troops to attack Chen Ce. If Chen Ce can be blocked in the mountains, he will not be able to plunder the Lujiang River. I can give him the post of county magistrate of Wan County" Lu Kang ordered.

Lu Ji asked, "Chaohu chief? Jiadi?"

"Chen Ce and the Jia family have a bloody feud. If Jia Nian is the magistrate of Wan County and guarding the side of the mountain, then Chen Ce must have scruples and dare not send troops to attack the counties. As long as the soldiers and horses in Chaohu Lake are not killed, Then the danger of Lujiang will be solved by itself," Lu Kang said slowly.

Lu Ji thought quickly: "Soldiers and horses in Chaohu Lake?"

"There is a way to kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred. After the battle between the two sides, neither of them will be afraid." Lu Kang's eyes flashed a gleam.

Lu Ji was taken aback: "Father is guarding against him?"

"It's not a defense, it's just that there are too many soldiers in Chaohu, so we have to use this as a last resort to protect ourselves," Lu Kang replied.

No matter who is the prefect of Lujiang, he will not allow an uncontrolled army of more than a thousand soldiers in his own territory.

This has nothing to do with jealousy, it's just an instinctive choice.

"The situation is critical, go quickly," Lu Kang urged.

Lu Ji bowed and said, "No"

Then turned around and walked quickly outside the tent.
