Chapter 201

In May, Liu Yu raised 100,000 troops in Chang'an City. After heading south to Yizhou, he gathered 60,000 troops in Yizhou, with a total of 160,000 troops to conquer the Yi people in the south.

The news reached Jiangling, Jingzhou.

Liu Bei was overjoyed: "Liu Yu, as military advisor Zhuge expected, was personally leading 160,000 Qin troops to the southern expedition of the Yi people. The opportunity to annex the Eastern Wu alone has come. Let's spread the military advisor and the generals come!"

Soon Zhuge Liang and all the civil and military officials came to discuss with Liu Bei.

The news reached Xudu.

Cao Cao also sneered: "Liu Shimin has indeed led his troops to fight against the Yi people in the south. Liu Bei wanted to destroy the Eastern Wu and Jiangdong. If he succeeded, his strength would be almost no less than that of the Gu. However, Sun Quan's son refused to join forces to resist Liu Shimin. It would be a good idea if he could threaten the rear at all times. This time, Liu Bei promised Wu County and Danyang County to support Liu Bei to destroy Sun Quan's son. He only hoped that after Liu Bei destroyed Sun Quan's son, he would keep his promise and hand over the two counties to Gu."

Of course, Cao Cao was not afraid that Liu Bei would be distrustworthy. After all, he and Liu Bei had to deal with Liu Yu together. In order to ensure the reliability of the alliance, Liu Bei would not be so short-sighted.

Cao Cao also invited Sima Yi and other civil and military officials to discuss it.

So Liu Bei and Cao Cao were prepared together, waiting for Liu Yu's army to fight with the Yi people, but were completely dragged down by the Yi people, and Liu Bei and Cao Cao would also start to move.

Shu County City.

Liu Yu's 160,000 Qin troops were all elite in a hundred battles, and Jia Xu and Fa Zheng were also the advisers, Lu Bu, Guan Yu, Gao Shun, Ma Dai and others were generals, and the lineup was strong.

It is said that Meng Huo was defeated by Guan Yu for Zijian. He first fled back to Yueli County and gathered some of the fleeing Yi people, and then returned to Yunnan, the Yi people's old nest. He stayed in Yueli County, Jianning County, Yongchang County and other three counties to defend only some of the Yi people and the Han people who colluded with the Yi people to rebel. In short, the three counties were just a group of mixed forces of soldiers, not Meng Huo's headquarters.

Liu Yu took Lu Bu to lead 20,000 troops as his vanguard and first entered Yueli County.

The leader of Yueli County was named Gao Kai. His father was an Yi person, and his mother was a mixed-race of Han people. In the past, Meng Huo attacked Yueli County, and Gao Kai made great efforts. Later, he married an Yi woman as his second wife. He devoted himself to serving Meng Huo and was highly valued by Meng Huo.

Gao Kai learned that King Liu Yu of Qin personally led the army to the south and the vanguard had entered Yueli County. He snorted and said without fear: "Although there are many Qin troops, I am not afraid either!"

Then he personally led more than 10,000 miscellaneous soldiers to the Qin army to ambush the Qin army on its way south, intending to defeat the Qin army vanguard first.

Lu Bu led 20,000 Qin army vanguards and encountered Gao Kai and other miscellaneous soldiers as soon as he entered Yueli County 60 miles away.

"Kill!" Gao Kai not only did not know that the leader of the Qin army's vanguard was Lu Bu, but also that Lu Bu's reputation was not known. He led his miscellaneous soldiers to jump out directly, and he himself even snatched towards Lu Bu.

"General Qin is killed!" As he approached Lu Bu, Gao Kai shouted with a ferocious look on his face, and the weapons in his hand were about to chop at Lu Bu.

Lu Bu was stunned for a moment. He didn't know that the nameless general was so arrogant?

When Gao Kai approached, Lu Bu Fangtian's painting halberd first knocked off Gao Kai's weapons with a halberd, and then killed Gao Kai with a halberd, only two rounds before and after.

Gao Kai was easily killed by Lu Bu. More than ten thousand barbarian soldiers rushed out of the ambush and should have been aggressive, but at this moment he was suddenly frightened. Not only did he not continue to rush towards the Qin army, but he retreated in panic.

"Kill!" Lu Bu led his army to chase and kill for more than 30 miles until the city of Yueli County, killing more than 6,000 barbarian soldiers.

With the power of great victory, he interrogated the leader of the Yueli County anti-army leader, Gao Kai, who had been killed by himself. Lu Bu went to the city and shouted directly to the city tower: "Gao Kai is dead. If you want to survive, open the city gate and surrender!"

The miscellaneous soldiers in Yueli County saw that Lu Bu was chasing the defeated soldiers to the city, and heard that Gao Kai was dead, so how could he dare to resist, so he opened the city gate. Lu Bu easily recaptured Yueli County.

Liu Yu led the main force of the Qin army to Yueli County City. Without Liu Yu sending people to persuade the surrender, all other counties in Yueli County surrendered in a glance, and the entire territory of Yueli County was recovered.

After a day of rest, Liu Yu led his troops to continue to fight towards Jianning County, southeast of Yueli County.

The magistrate of Jianning County was named Zhu Kang, but he was a pure Han man. At that time, he was just dissatisfied with Liu Zhang's rule and turned to Meng Huo, who also knew that he was guilty. Since Meng Huo was defeated by Guan Yu in Jian's county, Zhu Kang realized that Meng Huo would never last long. When he heard that King Liu Yu of Qin personally went south, Zhu Kang couldn't sleep at night and was extremely panicked.

Now Yueli County has been recovered by King Liu Yu of Qin, and Jianning County is also difficult to resist. There is only one way to die to resist. In order to save his life, Zhu Kang decided to kill the Yi people in the city and surrender to King Liu Yu of Qin, and to make a fortune.

Zhu Kang first ambushed the swordsman, and then invited the Yi people in the city to command on the grounds of discussing good strategies to fight against the Qin army. When the Yi people arrived, Zhu Kang ordered the swordsman to come out together, and killed all the Yi people and took their heads. When the Qin army arrived at Jianning County City, he opened the city gate and welcomed the Qin army into the city.

Seeing Liu Yu, Zhu Kang knelt down on the ground in panic and apologized: "I heard that the King of Qin led his troops to fight south and did not dare to resist, so he killed all the Yi people in the city, surrendered to the King of Qin Xiancheng, and begged the King of Qin to forgive him."

"Get up." Liu Yu smiled and said, "Since you can offer the city to surrender, you will forgive you for not being guilty. You can remember one merit. When the Yi people are conquered this time, you will be rewarded with merit."

"Thank you, King Qin!" Zhu Kang was overjoyed and thanked.

The Yueli County and Jianning County were successively recovered, and the next time was Yongchang County.

Jia Xu made a strategy and said, "King, Yongchang County Ding did not know that Jianning County had surrendered. Take this opportunity to order more than a thousand soldiers to pretend to be defeated soldiers of Jianning County, and ask Zhu Kang to lead the gate of Yongchang County before to open the city gate, and also break the city in one fell swoop and recover Yongchang County."

Liu Yu nodded and said, "Let's use literature to make this plan!"

Zhu Kang was about to come and ask Zhu Kang about his wishes.

It was said that it was an inquiry, but in fact, Zhu Kang had no qualifications to refuse. Since he had surrendered to Liu Yu, how could he dare to refuse Liu Yu's orders? He then took more than a thousand Qin troops pretending to be defeated soldiers in Jianning County to "escape" towards Yongchang County.

The governor of Yongchang County was an Yi man, but this man was not very smart, or even all the Yi man was not very smart. He did not even realize that this was the Qin army's plan to open the city gate.

When Zhu Kang and more than a thousand Qin troops who were defeated soldiers arrived, they saw Zhu Kang and others looking embarrassed and defeated soldiers, so they ordered the city gate to be opened without doubt.

As soon as the city gate was opened, Zhu Kang and Qianwu pretended to be defeated soldiers in Jianning County and quickly captured the city gate.

"Kill!" Then Lu Bu took the lead and brought tens of thousands of Qin troops from afar. It was too late for the Yi people to regain the city gate, and soon the Qin army rushed into the city from the occupied city gate.

The Yi guards of Yongchang County were both shocked and angry, and led the soldiers in the city to fight back, trying to drive the Qin army out of the city. However, he ran into Lu Bu head-on when he was near the city gate and was killed by Lu Bu with a halberd! As soon as he died, the remaining miscellaneous soldiers dispersed one after another. Except for a few who escaped from other city gates, all miscellaneous soldiers in the city were wiped out by the Qin army.

After recovering Yongchang County, other counties in the county also descended in a hurry. In just ten days of the southern expedition, Liu Yu was unstoppable and easily recovered the three counties including Yueli, Jianning, Yongchang, and were about to approach the Yi people's headquarters.
