: Chang Yuchun is intimidating Jingnan

Just as Yang Yanzhao was reorganizing his army in Chaisang, Chang Yuchun, who was in Jiangling, had already prepared his troops and headed south at any time.

In the Jiangling Central Army's tent, Chang Yuchun sat in the main seat, and below were military advisor Pang Tong, generals Huang Tong, Wang Yanzhang, and Pang De.

"Military advisor, are the soldiers, horses, food and grass ready?" Chang Yuchun asked Pang Tong.

Pang Tong replied: "Return to the general, 50,000 troops were ready, and the food and grass were also prepared for three months."

"Three months is enough." Chang Yuchun nodded and said. If it were the past, Chang Yuchun might still be a little worried, but since Murong Ke easily defeated the 30,000 Hunan Army with 10,000 troops in the battle of Jiancheng, Chang Yuchun had a clear understanding of the combat power of the Hunan Army, the five scumbags. Three months to fight Linxiang is enough.

Chang Yuchun straightened his face and said, "Send the order, tomorrow the troops will be sent to Chanling, General Huang Tong stayed in Jiangling and was responsible for the logistics of the army."

"Here!"

On the seventh day of the seventh month of the 14th year of Qianyuan, Chang Yuchun swore to march south in Jiangling and commanded a 50,000 army to head straight to Chanling.

On the fifteenth, under Chanling City, the Hunan Army guards on the top of the city looked at the Deng army with clear flags under the city and were trembling.

"People come to persuade them to surrender." Chang Yuchun said.

"Here!" Soon, a fast horse came to the city quickly and shouted to the top of the city: "Listen to the Hunan Army in the city, the Great Deng Tianshang Army has arrived, so quickly open the city to surrender. Otherwise, the day when the city is broken, the chickens and dogs will be uneasy and blood will flow into a river."

"General, what should I do now?" said the deputy general to the guard.

The guard looked at the city, then looked at the trembling soldiers beside him, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Send the order to open the city and surrender."

"Surrender!" The deputy general stared at the guard and said in surprise: "No, General, are you talking about surrendering the city?"

"What can we do if we don't surrender? Haven't you heard that if we don't surrender, when Deng's army breaks the city, Chanling City will be in turmoil and blood flows into a river. We only have two thousand soldiers and horses, and we can't stop 50,000 Deng's army at all. If we resist stubbornly, if Deng's army breaks the city and starts a massacre, wouldn't we become the sinners of Chanling City?" The guard said helplessly.

"Okay." The deputy general responded.

Chang Yuchun was waiting at the city to find out that he was a little impatient and was about to order the attack on the city. At this time, a white flag was raised at the top of Chanling City, and then the Chanling City Gate slowly opened.

Seeing this, Chang Yuchun raised his mouth slightly and ordered the whole army to enter the city.

Chang Yuchun rested in Chanling City for a day, and immediately led his troops to continue to attack Zuo Tang. Zuo Tang's garrison did not surrender but chose to resist stubbornly. As a result, Chang Yuchun led his army to attack the city, and within one day he captured the city. Chang Yuchun also ordered all Hunan troops in the city to be killed.

As soon as Chang Yuchun killed prisoners, the entire Hunan Kingdom was shocked. The following cities did not dare to resist and directly opened the city to surrender. Therefore, Chang Yuchun only took ten days to break through Lingyang, Hanshou Zhucheng, and rushed to Linyuan City, the capital of Wuling County.

Linyuan City, as the capital of Wuling County, has 5,000 troops stationed all year round, but compared with 50,000 Deng troops, it still uses eggs to hit stones.

Linyuan's garrison was the Hunan general Jin Guo. This man was a veteran of Hunan. He fought for Hunan throughout his life and was loyal to Hunan. He learned that after the Tang Dynasty massacred the Hunan Army prisoners, Chang Yuchun cursed Chang Yuchun. When Deng's army was at the city, he killed several envoys who came to persuade him to surrender, and expressed his resistance to death.

"It's outrageous. This Jinguo really means toasting and not eating the punishment. Do you really think that this general has no choice but to deal with him?" Chang Yuchun cursed at Jinguo in the central army's tent.

"People are worried about it. Jinguo is a veteran of Hunan. If you can perform like this, it is actually being cleaned up." Pang Tong advised Chang Yuchun. In fact, earlier, Pang Tong told Chang Yuchun that Jinguo, the guard general of Linyuan, was a smelly and hard stone and would never surrender. However, Chang Yuchun did not believe in evil and sent several envoys to persuade him to surrender, but they were all killed by Jinguo without any surprise.

"Huh..." Chang Yuchun got angry and felt much more comfortable, and said, "Okay, since this old man Jinguo is ungrateful, then the general is not polite to him. Wang Yanzhang obeys the order!"

"The last one is here!" Wang Yanzhang responded.

"I'll order you to lead your troops to attack the city tomorrow!"

"Here!"

The next day, Wang Yanzhang led his troops to attack Linyuan City, and Jinguo also fought to the death, but the strength of the two sides was too disparate. Although Jinguo had tried his best, it was still useless. Wang Yanzhang only took one day to break through Linyuan City.

After Deng's army entered the city, Chang Yuchun ordered the killing of all Hunan army prisoners, and cut off Jinguo's head with his own hands and hung it on the head of Linyuan City to shock the Hunan army.

Jinguo's tragic ending made the Hunan army, who had other thoughts, completely give up resistance, causing the Hunan army to descend wherever Chang Yuchun went.

The Xiang Kingdom King City is in the Xiang City. Now everyone is in danger. Chang Yuchun is destroyed and destroyed all the way, and the Hunan army dares not resist, especially Chang Yuchun kills prisoners at any time, which makes the people of Xiang even more heartbroken.

In the palace of Xiang King, since Deng's army went south, letters of help from all over the place flew to the King of Xiang like snowflakes. When he learned that Chang Yuchun used cruel means to kill Jinguo, Xiang King fainted directly on the ground. After being awakened by the imperial physician, he was still in panic all day long, fearing that when he woke up, Deng's army would come to the city and become Chang Yuchun's dead soul.

"Your Highness, what should I do if Deng's army is so cruel?" In the imperial study, the King of Xiang asked the important ministers of Xiang with a sad face.

Now in the imperial study, there are Liu Hong, the prime minister of Xiang Kingdom, Xing Rong, Zong Zheng Ma Yuan, and Yang Jing, the general of the cavalry.

"King, now we should concentrate our troops north to resist the Deng army, otherwise, the Deng army will reach Linxiang City in less than half a month." Prime Minister Liu Hong said.

"Yes, send troops, General Xing, how many troops can be dispatched in China now?" King Xiang hurriedly asked Xing Rong.

Xing Rong came out and said, "When King Hui, Linxiang City has 10,000 soldiers and horses, and Xiajun City has 5,000 soldiers and horses. These are all soldiers and horses that can be gathered immediately. Moreover, we still have 15,000 soldiers and horses in Guiyang and Lingling counties. We can gather in Linxiang within ten days. In this way, our army will have 30,000 soldiers and horses."

"Thirty thousand? Enough." King Xiang was overjoyed when he heard that he had 30,000 troops and horses. As long as he defended the 30,000 troops, he could stop 50,000 Deng's army. If he had done it well, he might be able to fight back and kill Deng's army.

I have to say that the King of Hunan still has some military qualities and knows that 30,000 people can hold on to it, but he ignores the combat power of the Hunan Army fighting against the Five Slags.

So he said: "General Xing, you will gather all the troops to fight Deng's army, and General Yang will serve as the deputy general."

"Yes!" Xing Rong and Yang Jingying promised.

"King, we can still ask for help from the Wu Kingdom." At this time, Zong Zheng and Ma Yuan proposed another solution.

"Wu State? He was defeated by Deng's army just now, and Yuzhang is still a mess. The Yue army is still rampant in Yuzhang. Will Wu State send troops?" The King of Xiang had thought of asking for help from Wu State, but Wu State is not much better than himself now, so how could he come to save him?

Ma Yuan said with a bitter face: "King, how can you know that Wu will not send troops if you don't try it? Moreover, the princess is the favorite concubine of the King of Wu, and the princess is on the side to help. Besides, my Daxiang has fallen into such a field, which has something to do with Wu. I believe that the King of Wu will not sit idly by."

King Xiang nodded. This was also a way, worth a try, so he said, "Brother Wang, you will go to Wucheng in person, meet the King of Wu, and ask the King of Wu to send troops to rescue him."

"Here!" Ma Yuan replied.
