Chapter 1018: Conquering Four Cities
"Alas...all the resources, food, weapons stocks, etc. in the county have been looted by Xu Zhao, Lin Mu and others. There is nothing we can do." Gu Yong sighed.
Wang Lang's face twitched slightly when he heard this. In fact, he was among the so-called "Xu Zhao, Lin Mu and others".
This is also the reason why he was satisfied when Gu Yong asked for assistance twice.
"No problem. I will arrange it later. You can have someone go to the treasury to move it. However, it is only part of it. I am afraid that you can't transport it in time. The rest, you can come to Jiujiang County and get it for you." Wang Lang said softly.
Three hundred thousand people, each person consumes ten units of food every day, that is, three million units of food will be consumed that day, and according to a month, it will take 90 million units of food.
In fact, this is still a small amount. The soldiers under Lin Mu's command consume the highest standard of twenty units.
Such a huge number requires a lot of manpower and horsepower to move. Even if there are a lot of marching bags, it is not possible to move so much food. Therefore, the Great Wilderness Territory traveled in advance and constantly used ships to transport food, soldiers, etc.
That's why the Great Wilderness Territory squandered those tens of millions of gold coins.
"It's okay! Some resources can help the county soldiers survive this difficult period." Gu Yong said gratefully.
"Okay! In addition, you arrange some people to cooperate with some of my elite soldiers, disguised as the Yellow Turban Army, raid Wenyuan Town, and destroy Lin Mu's roots!" Wang Lang whispered, full of murderous intent.
"Yes!!" After tasting the sweetness, you have to pay a price.
However, how to operate it specifically depends on Lin Mu and his operation.
Gu Yong is not worried that Wenyuan Town will be breached because Feng Zhong is guarding it.
"My Lord, Lin Mu is currently in Wushang City. If he rushes to Lujiang County, it will take some time. Why don't we pay for the teleportation array and let him go directly to Moling City, the fortress of Danyang County, and then let him set out from Moling City and attack Lujiang County. What do you think?" Gu Yong said again.
"It's only 200,000 gold coins, okay!" Wang Lang said with wealth and generosity.
In order to destroy Lin Mu and plunder Lin Mu's foundation, he was willing to pay a price, just 200,000 gold coins.
In fact, the reason why he targeted Lin Mu so much, besides the fact that he was in the eunuch camp, was that he wanted to plot against a person and the good things in Lin Mu's territory.
This person's name was Feng Zhong!
What Lin Mu didn't know was that Wang Lang actually wanted to plot against Feng Zhong who was very popular in the Qinglong Secret Realm!
Before, he had captured Xu Huang in the Xu Zhao Rebellion, which greatly increased the foundation of his territory. If Feng Zhong was recruited into it, the military strength would be even stronger!
…
“——Ding!”
“——Yangzhou Announcement: When the time comes, heaven and earth will work together, and when the luck is gone, the hero will not be free! The Taiping Dao plotted rebellion and started an uprising, which was intolerable to heaven and earth. They summoned millions of Yellow Turbans to sweep across Yangzhou, and Yangzhou Governor Wang Lang posted a notice to recruit volunteers! Players who join the Han camp can sign up to join the volunteers and go to Jiujiang County, Danyang County, Wu County, Yuzhang County and other four counties to wipe out the Yellow Turban rebels. Killing the Yellow Turban Army can earn camp points and Han merits. Camp points can be exchanged for rare items at the exclusive exchange envoy. The specific points details can be found on the camp panel. Merits can be exchanged for military positions, and the specific military positions have not yet been announced. "
"…"
"…"Three Yangzhou regional announcements sounded. After that, there were three more regional announcements:
"——Ding!"
"——Yangzhou Announcement: Who will guard the thousands of miles of mountains and rivers? The mainstay tiger general is coming! Lujiang prefect Yang Xu is recruiting volunteers in Shouchun City, Jiujiang County. Players who join the Han camp can sign up for the volunteers and counterattack Lujiang County with Prefect Yang Xu and Fu Bo General Lin Mu!..."
"..."
"..."This announcement was issued by Yang Xu. After all, he is the new prefect of Lujiang, and Lujiang County has been completely occupied by Zhou Cang. If he wants to sit properly as the prefect of Lujiang, Lujiang County must be conquered!
He originally wanted other counties to assist with some troops, but was ruthlessly rejected, because at this time, the situation in each county was more complicated. If the troops were easily released, what would happen if the city was broken by the Yellow Turban Army?
Gu Yong of Kuaiji County wanted to support him with some troops, but was suppressed by Wang Lang, because Wang Lang also wanted to support.
The helpless bachelor prefect Yang Xu could only recruit volunteers and foreign soldiers.
……
……
"My Lord, we have received news that Governor Wang Lang asked you to go to Lujiang County for support. You can take the teleportation array of Wushang City to Moling City in Danyang County."
"The teleportation fee of 200,000 gold coins has been delivered." Xie Fei, the county magistrate of Wushang City, said respectfully to Lin Mu who was sitting on the chair.
"Okay! It's going according to plan!" Lin Mu nodded.
Lin Mu was not surprised at the information of 200,000 gold coins, because it was all within the plan.
……
……
After raising the tent and starting the rebellion, it took 20 days for the Yellow Turban Army to finally attack the southeast fortress city of Wan County.
Wan County is a fortress city leading to Jiujiang County, and it is an important place! The garrison here is obviously different from other county towns.
The full complement of 200,000 county soldiers is enough. Unlike other county towns that are short of food and wages.
"General Gongtu, my army has basically conquered the entire Lujiang area except for the Wanxian city in front of us. In addition to the garrison, we still have 300,000 troops!" Zhou Cang reported to Dian Wei on his warhorse with excitement.
"With the 200,000 troops in the city, we should have 500,000 troops to enter Jiujiang City!" Zhou Cang said in a serious tone.
"According to the plan, when we attack the city, we will let the defenders in the city and the soldiers under the city pretend to attack and defend, and then let some soldiers secretly withdraw and ambush. I have a hunch that Wang Lang's spies should be following us."
"We will pretend to be defeated and retreat first, and then fight with Lin Mu, and I believe we can lure out Wang Lang's ambush." Dian Wei whispered.
"Yes!"
"According to the report from the spies in front, General Fu Bo Lin Mu has gone to the Xiang'an Fortress City in the north?" Dian Wei asked.
"That's right. Lin Mu directly led the army to the northeast of Danyang County Moling Fortress City on the teleportation array. At present, he has left Moling City and arrived in front of the planned fortress city a little earlier than us." Zhou Cang said in a serious tone.
There are two fortress cities to the east of Lujiang County, Xiang'an City in the northeast and Wanxian City in the southeast. The two cities correspond to Moling City in Danyang County and Fuling City in Jiujiang County.
As long as the Yellow Turban Army breaks through Wanxian City and then breaks through Jiujiang County Fuling City, Jiujiang County will be flat and open to the Yellow Turban Army!
And as long as Lin Mu captures Xiang'an City, Lujiang County will be open to him.
"Everything is going according to plan, without any changes. Lin Mu has a deep foundation there."
"There is no movement in the garrisons of Xiacai City, Chaisang City, and Wuhu City at present, right?" Dian Wei asked again.
"Not for the time being, as long as we get Wang Lang's territory and complete the first task, then the three garrisons will be used, the Yellow Turban Army in Quanzhou will be armed, and the battle of Quanzhou will be launched. At that time, the prefectures and counties on the Jingzhou side can be fully occupied, and they can retreat to defend Yangzhou Lujiang, and attack Jingzhou Jiangxia, Yuzhou Yiyang, and Peiguo!" Zhou Cang said excitedly.
It seems that Yangzhou, Yuzhou, and Jingzhou are within reach!
"Beat the drum! Blow the horn!"
"Attack the city!" Dian Wei ordered.
"The blue sky is dead, the yellow sky should be established!" Then a series of roars gathered and echoed in the sky.
The roars of nearly 300,000 people were deafening and loud!
The Yellow Turban Army began to rush towards the city wall like a tsunami.
"Report!!" However, at this moment, a messenger ran in in panic, interrupting Zhou Cang's dream.
"General Gongtu, Xiang'an City has fallen! All 50,000 Yellow Turbans in the city have died!" The messenger said in horror.
"What? Lin Mu ignored the plan? He actually slaughtered our 50,000 elite Yellow Turban Army?!" Dian Wei was furious when he heard this. His eyes were as big as copper bells, and his face was full of anger.
Before the early plan was completed, the two forces should not have torn their faces, so why did this happen? !
Zhou Cang, who was standing next to him, was also furious: "How could this happen? What are the details?"
"General Daqu, in addition to Xiang'an City, Qian County, Yulou, and Yangquan have also fallen! It was the alien army that ambushed in the territory. When we attacked the county, they did not move. After we transferred our troops to the border, they launched a war and captured the four cities in one fell swoop!"
"Lin Mu cooperated with the alien army that suddenly appeared, and attacked Xiang'an City together, killing all his comrades in the city!" The messenger said sadly.
"According to this, Lin Mu has entered Lujiang without any effort!" Dian Wei restrained his anger and said in a concentrated voice.
It turned out that there was another alien army! This situation must have been unexpected by Lin Mu.
