Chapter 477
Danyang County.

Ji Ling stood on the tower and looked directly at the barracks outside, his heart suddenly sank for some reason.I've been a little restless these days, and I don't know why.The battle situation has changed in Lujiang County in the north. If Sun Ce's troops can capture Lujiang County, they can go straight to Wan County and other places, forcing the frontline troops in Chaohu to return to defense.At that time, Liu Ye's troops were scattered, and the Lord could be taken down in one go.

"There may be changes in the soldiers and horses of Yuzhang outside the city"

"My lord has not changed at all"

A personal guard replied respectfully.

Hearing this voice, Ji Ling suddenly felt a little more depressed for some reason.

Looking around in front of him, he ordered without thinking.

"Send scouts to inquire in detail about the movement of soldiers and horses in Yuzhang"

"promise"

The soldier bowed and turned to leave.

Hearing the sound of footsteps gradually going away, Ji Ling fell into deep thought.However, the familiar and hurried voice brought him back to reality.

"General Ji, something is wrong"

"Brother Joe"

Ji Ling hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a middle-aged man holding a roll of bamboo slips profusely in sweat, and the oppressive atmosphere became even more intense.

Qiao Rui handed the bamboo slips to Ji Ling.

"Fall of Kuaiji"

"what?"

Ji Ling didn't realize it, Kuaiji County is in the belly of our army, how could it be attacked.Could it be that the rich family of Wu County rebelled against the lord?If this is the case, it should be Wu County that fell, not Kuaiji County.

"The details are all on this bamboo slip, you can watch it in detail"

"Bamboo slips?"

Ji Ling reacted, quickly dispelled the doubts in his heart, and quickly opened the bamboo slips.

Looking around on the bamboo slips, my heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

After a while, he took a deep breath and spoke to Qiao Rui in a heavy tone.

"Shanyue Pengqing surrendered to Yuzhang prefect Jia Nian? Three thousand Shanyue soldiers and three thousand Yuzhang elite cavalry have swept Kuaiji County and knocked Wu County?"

"This? Where did Yuzhang get the three thousand elite riders?"

Ji Ling asked Qiao Rui, her eyes filled with shock.The fall of Kuaiji County was no less than a thunderbolt.At the beginning, his own defeat had already caused the hearts of Wujun Hao people to fluctuate. Now that Yuzhang has swept across the whole county again, wouldn't that be about to undergo earth-shaking changes.

It can be foreseen that there is already an undercurrent in Wu County, and a huge storm may be brewing.

We must immediately send troops to Wu Jun to sit in town and wipe out Yuzhang and Shanyue soldiers and horses.

"Brother Qiao is familiar with the terrain in the south of the Yangtze River. Now that the war is raging in Kuaiji County, I'm afraid I will trouble you to go there."

"The last general has exactly this intention"

Qiao Rui said to Ji Ling, because the matter was urgent, so he only talked about business affairs and not personal relationships, and claimed to be the last general.

Ji Ling slowly closed the bamboo slips with a trace of sadness.

"Where did General Qiao think the three thousand Yuzhang troops were transferred to Yu Khan?"

"If the prediction is correct, it should be the enemy outside the city."

"Outside the city?"

"General, do you still remember how long the prefect of Yuzhang has not appeared in front of the two armies?"

"The prefect of Yuzhang?"

Ji Ling was startled suddenly, and immediately figured out the joints, and couldn't help feeling a wave of hatred.

Staring fixedly at the outside of the city, everything that happened during this period was connected in series.

"What a prefect of Yuzhang, no wonder, no wonder no trace of him has been seen during this period of time"

"In this way, the soldiers and horses who attacked Kuaiji County were the prefect of Yuzhang."

Ji Ling spoke word by word.

Qiao Rui nodded heavily, with complex expressions in her eyes.

"Jia Nian's success in Changhe Village is not a coincidence, but a real talent."

"It's rare to hear such words from Brother Qiao"

"In today's world, there are many families, and the Jia family in Wanxian County is not well-known, but it is still a bit close to being dilapidated now."

Qiao Rui said to Ji Ling.

At this moment, Ji Ling remembered the relationship between Qiao Rui and the Jia family in Wan County, and a look of hesitation appeared in his eyes.When she thought of Qiao Rui's personality, she felt relieved.

"I believe Brother Qiao, public and private are clearly distinguished"

"Now the situation is critical, Wujun and Kuaiji are empty, we must return to aid before Yuzhang prefect Jia Nian"

"Therefore, I hope that Brother Qiao will lead his five thousand soldiers and horses to go there."

Ji Ling said to Qiao Rui.

Qiao Rui couldn't help being startled, and subconsciously blurted out.

"It's absolutely impossible. There are only [-] soldiers and horses in the city. If our troops leave the city, how can we resist the attack of Yuzhang soldiers and horses?"

"There are no more than [-] soldiers outside the city. The advantage of our troops occupying the strong city can force them back. Besides, Danyang is adjacent to Jiujiang. If our army is not good in the battle, the lord can send reinforcements from Hefei Marquis to gallop there. hinder"

"This?"

Qiao Rui hesitated.

This is indeed the truth when you think about it carefully. The city of Danyang County is high and deep, and [-] soldiers and horses can indeed compete with [-] troops here.Moreover, Jia Nian raised [-] troops, but he stopped here with the momentum of a great victory, so he was afraid of the power of the city wall.

"The war is urgent, brother Qiao, please lead the troops to the headquarters immediately"

"Forget it, after the general wipes out the Yuzhang soldiers and horses that attacked Kuaiji and Wujun, he will definitely bind this son Jia Nian in front of the lord."

"Okay, I will wait for Brother Qiao's good news in Danyang City"

"come"

"exist"

"Holding two altars of good wine, I was going to see General Qiao off"

"promise"

The guards shouted loudly, followed by the sound of dense footsteps.

Not long after, two jars of wine were brought over and handed to them respectively.

Ji Ling and Qiao Rui toasted each other, and then poured it into their mouths.

砰

The wine jars fell to the ground and scattered in all directions, Qiao Rui turned and walked downstairs without saying a word.

Looking at the receding figure, Ji Ling lowered his voice and gave orders to the guards behind him.

"Report this to the lord"

"promise"

A personal guard replied loudly, then turned around and walked down the tower.

Ji Ling turned around and looked at the continuous Yuzhang military camp outside the city, with a serious expression on his face.Peng Qing's rebellion put him in an extremely passive situation. The fall of Kuaiji County has become a certainty. I hope Wu County can hold on, otherwise the situation is over and we can only withdraw from Danyang and stick to Jiujiang.

Yuzhang, who has won the loyalty of the Shanyue clan, is no longer the former Yuzhang. With the wealth of Yuzhang's mansion, it is enough to recruit a Shanyue army with more than ten thousand soldiers.That is to say, the superiority of troops under the lord's command disappeared after Yuzhang gained the allegiance of the Shanyue clan.

The speed must be fast, grab the front of Yuzhang to defend Wujun, and capture Lujiang to regain an overwhelming advantage.

As for this place?

There was a hint of killing intent in Ji Ling's eyes, but then quickly subsided.

After all, there were [-] soldiers outside the city, and they were so strong that they didn't dare to take the initiative to attack. Although the morale of Yuzhang's soldiers and horses has not been as high as before.However, the city has already divided its troops, and it is obviously not advisable to take the initiative to attack if it has an advantage.I hope that Qiao Rui can hold Wu County, and then relying on the momentum of a big victory, he can send his army to defeat the Yuzhang soldiers in front.

"Send more horses and pay close attention to the situation in the Quartet"

"promise"

All the guards shouted at Ji Ling in unison.
