The rebellion in Jiangnan is in full swing, and many major bandit forces have begun to merge. Zhu Xie in Jinling and Lu Kai in Qu'a have also completed their rendezvous in Jinling.
Zhu Xie is the clearest-minded among the rebels and has the clearest goal.
Zhu Xie was born in a wealthy family and received a serious education from a wealthy family. He was well versed in current affairs and practical. He was not comparable to those blind and rebellious fools. He knew very well that although they were making trouble in Jiangnan, they were essentially just a bunch of rabble. Wasn't his master Xie Yi's rebellion bigger than this? As soon as the imperial reinforcements arrived, the uprising of the people in Jiangnan collapsed instantly. If you want to avoid being annihilated by the Sui army, you must block the Sui army north of the Yangtze River and rely on the natural dangers of the Yangtze River to confront the Sui army, and then have more time to develop.
Zhu Xie then discussed with Lu Kai to go north to attack Yanling and block the river.
Lu Kai and Zhu Xie had a good relationship. Both of them came from aristocratic families. In the past, he often followed Zhu Xie for matters, so he heard Zhu Xie's advice and led his troops north to attack Yanling. Zhu Xie divided some of his troops and horses and gave them to his younger brother Zhu Lang to go with Lu Kai.
Lu Kai was born in the Lu family of Wu County and should have some relationship with Huang Mingyuan. However, the Lu family has been passed down for nearly 400 years since Lu Mao (Lu Xun's younger brother, as mentioned earlier, Lu Xun's line has died out) and Lu Ji. It has deep branches and luxuriant leaves, many heirs, and there is no deep connection with each other. .
Lu Kai¡¯s tribe settled in Qu¡¯a and was considered a powerful local family.
Lu Kai himself is even more beautiful and ambitious. He is the leader of all the bandits in the south of the Yangtze River. Lu Kai himself has become a famous ranger in the south of the Yangtze River.
This time Lu Kai took advantage of the chaos and occupied Qu'a, a strategic area. His team soon grew to more than 20,000 people. His troops, plus Zhu Lang's troops of nearly ten thousand people, headed towards Yanling.
Zhao Liuer, the Huyalang general who was located in Yanling, was from Yuwenshu's old tribe and had always been at odds with Ouyan. Although he was only a tiger-toothed general, he oversaw ten thousand soldiers, all of whom were elites from the North. He had more soldiers and horses than Ou Yan, Wang Zengbian, and Yuan You. Therefore, Zhao Liuer is often arrogant and arrogant.
There was chaos in the south of the Yangtze River, and Ou Yan ordered him to go south to hunt down the thieves. Although Zhao Liuer looked down on Ou Yan, he thought this was an opportunity. If the chaos in the south of the Yangtze River could be put down, he could take the position of the hunter instead, and there was no need to do anything. This general was neither good nor bad, so Commander Zhao Liuer led three battalions south.
The Yanling area is surrounded by mountains and the terrain is dangerous, forming a barrier to the south of the Yangtze River. Going south from Yanling, the terrain is flat and densely covered with rivers.
The troops led by Zhao Liuer were all Guanzhong soldiers. Although they were elite, they were not familiar with the fighting patterns of Jiangnan water towns.
Everyone rushed all the way to Zhangguandu. This was the place where Sun Ce defeated Zhang Ying in the late Han Dynasty. The terrain was dangerous.
Zhao Liuer stopped here and prepared to cross the river.
Zhao Liuer was also annoyed all the way south. What kind of place is Jiangnan? Why are there rivers everywhere? Crossing the rivers is too troublesome.
Zhao Liuer ordered General Hu Xu to lead his troops to cross first, and he found a shady place to cool off, preparing to cross the river finally.
What Zhao Liuer didn¡¯t know at this time was that there were bandits waiting for him on the other side of the river.
Lu Kai led nearly 30,000 horses galloping all the way, and then the front army came to report that the Sui army in Yanling had moved south. Lu Kai was overjoyed when he heard that the Sui army in Yanling had nearly ten thousand people and was guarding a fortified city. He didn't know how to defeat the enemy. At this time, the Sui army's march south seemed to be seeking death.
Lu Kai then discussed with Zhu Lang that he could lead his troops to ambush the Sui army, and they would surely win by then.
However, Zhu Lang was not as optimistic as Lu Kai. He believed that his troops were all newly recruited farmers and had little combat effectiveness. If it was a field battle, they might not be the Sui army's opponents. Even if they ambush, they might not win.
Lu Kai relied on his bravery and insisted on carrying out an ambush. Therefore, the two agreed to conduct an ambush on the north side of Qu'a City. This place is backed by Qu'a City, so if the ambush fails, you can successfully escape back to Qu'a City.
At this time, Zhao Liuer led his troops to successfully cross Zhangguandu. After crossing the river, it was getting late, so Zhao Liuer ordered to camp on the spot with his back to the river, and wait until tomorrow to march to Quacheng.
Zhao Liuer was also confused and proud, so he despised the rebels.
Lu Kai and Zhu Lang were ambushing in a hilly area in the north of Qu'a, when a scout came to report that the Sui army did not continue to Qu'a city, but camped at Zhangguandu on the way.
After hearing this, Lu Kai couldn't help but cursed. These officers and soldiers were really useless. Zhang Guandu had traveled more than ten miles to Qu'acheng, so it was worth stopping for a night to repair.
However, the Sui army did not arrive as expected, and it became difficult to stay here to ambush the Sui army. We can't all sleep in the wilderness tonight.
When Zhu Lang heard this, he felt that this was a way to defeat the enemy.When the opportunity came, he advised Lu Kai that instead of ambush here, it would be better to sneak attack the Sui army at night, which would have a greater chance of winning. The Sui army was already exhausted when they came from afar. If they were attacked by a surprise attack and had their backs against a river, they would inevitably collapse.
Lu Kai thought about it carefully and thought it was okay, so he agreed to Zhu Lang's plan.
The two then mobilized the main force of 5,000 troops, led by Zhu Lang as the front army, and headed straight for Zhangguandu. Lu Kai supervised the army behind him.
Zhu Lang fought all the way to the outside of the Sui army's camp in Zhangguandu. The Sui army was indeed unprepared.
Zhao Liuer thought he had a strong force and would flee if the bandits saw him along the way. Therefore, he never thought that he would encounter an ambush or sneak attack. Now he is doing his own fault.
Zhu Lang was overjoyed, so he waved his flag and ordered his troops to attack the Sui army camp.
Sui Jun was sleeping in a daze, and even Zhao Liuer was sleeping soundly. The Sui army was unprepared and was suddenly attacked by the rebels, and the camp was immediately breached by the rebels.
Zhao Liuer was very panicked when he heard the noise. He had climbed to this position just by bribing Yu Wenshu. He had never fought in a war. When he saw the chaos, he was already at a loss what to do and was in a hurry.
At this time, there was a lot of noise inside and outside the military camp, as if there were bandits in all directions. The Sui army was terrified and fled in all directions. In this situation, even a famous general could not reorganize the troops who bombed the camp, let alone the mediocre Zhao Liuer.
Seeing that he was helpless, Zhao Liuer led his army to break out.
General Hu Xu was Zhao Liuer¡¯s confidant and was ordered to lead his troops to cut off the rear.
At this time, everyone fled north, but was blocked by the river. The Sui troops who had no way to escape surrendered one after another.
Zhao Liuer was so frightened that he took off his armor, wore only his small clothes, and swam across the river with his bodyguard. As for the army, they no longer have any worries.
The two sides fought in melee for a night, and Sui general Hu Xu died in the battle. The Sui troops who remained in the camp either died or surrendered.
Zhao Liuer fled to the north bank, but did not dare to stay. In panic, he fled to Yanling. When they returned to the city, they gathered their troops and horses, and most of the six thousand army was lost, leaving only less than two thousand people. As for the front army, it was completely wiped out.
Lu Kai and Zhu Lang were victorious and chased for dozens of miles before returning. The two confiscated the equipment and military supplies of the Sui army. For a time, the morale of the army was greatly boosted, the army became more prosperous, and countless people defected, almost more than 100,000 people. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
