Chapter 176: Murong Ke defeated the Hunan Army
"Reported to General Murong, the Hunan Army has left Ai County and invaded Nanchang. The chief general is Xing Rong, the Hunan General, with a force of about 30,000. However, the military discipline is scattered, and several of us approach the Hunan Army many times, but the Hunan Army has not discovered it." In Nanchang City, the scout reported to Murong Ke on the situation of the Hunan Army.
When Murong Ke heard this, he frowned and looked at Li Dingguo Highway beside him: "Can it be the trick of the Hunan Army? It was deliberately for us to see?"
Murong Ke immediately wondered if it was the Hunan Army's trick. Logically speaking, Xing Rong, as a general of a country, should have some military qualities, and there is no reason why the entire army is so scattered.
"General Murong, probably not. The villain watched the Hunan Army's troops and found that they were many old and weak, and they were not very energetic." Before Li Dingguo could speak, the scout who came to report immediately said.
After hearing this, Murong Ke said to the scout thoughtfully: "Okay, you go down first."
After the scout left, Murong Ke said to Li Dingguo Highway: "General Li, what do you think?"
Li Dingguo thought for a while and said, "If it is true as the scout said, then the Hunan Army is not worth worrying, but it is better to be careful."
Murong Ke nodded and said, "That's right, let's do it. I'll bring 10,000 troops to meet the Hunan Army for a while. General Li stayed in Nanchang. Keep in touch with you and me. Whenever there is something wrong, General Li will send troops to rescue him immediately?"
Li Dingguo thought about it, nodded, and it would be fine to let Murong Ke go. After all, if the situation of the Hunan Army is really as the scout said, then with Murong Ke's ability and Deng's elite, ten thousand troops would be enough to defeat 30,000 Hunan Army.
So he said, "Okay, just as General Murong said."
Murong Ke ordered 10,000 troops and marched all the way. He discovered the Hunan Army in Jiancheng area. Murong Ke immediately fled into the mountains and forests with 10,000 troops and hid, and the Hunan Army did not discover it at all.
Murong Ke carefully observed the Hunan Army and found that the situation of the Hunan Army was exactly the same as what the scout said. Moreover, with Murong Ke's military ability, he could tell at a glance that this was the real situation of the Hunan Army and there was no conspiracy.
Murong Ke was overjoyed and hurriedly ordered the army to prepare, but he was afraid that ten thousand troops would not be enough, so he sent people to rush back to Nanchang and notified Li Dingguo to come for reinforcements.
Xing Rong was in a very good mood on the road. He kept hoping that he would defeat the Deng army and capture the general of the Deng army alive. The Princess of Xiang Kingdom was promoted to the position of Queen of Wu because of her achievements. The King of Xiang also promoted him to the title of title. His future was very good and he did not realize that he had already had a great disaster.
Murong Ke looked at the Hunan Army getting closer and closer, pulled out the sword from his waist, suddenly his eyes shone brightly, and he shouted: "Kill!" He rushed out first.
"Kill!" With Murong Ke's lead, ten thousand Deng troops rushed out quickly.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" Xing Rong, who was still dreaming, was shocked when he heard Deng Jun's killing shouts and shouted quickly.
However, the quality of the Hunan Army was too low. After Murong Ke's surprise attack, he was immediately defeated and could not organize any resistance. He could only let the Deng army slaughter. He suffered heavy casualties in just half a day.
Seeing this, Wu Envoy thought something was wrong, so he hurried to Xing Rong and said, "General Xing, this is not a solution. Deng's army is unstoppable. Let's retreat back to Ai County first, let's talk about it."
"Okay! OK!" Xing Rong nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice, and then ordered a retreat. However, the Hunan Army was already in chaos at this time. The Hunan State had been in peace for a long time, and I don't know how many years had it been before. How could Xing Rong organize it when he said that Deng's army was about to rush towards him? Xing Rong gritted his teeth and abandoned the large army directly, and ran away with only hundreds of personal soldiers. Seeing this, Wu Envoy followed Xing Rong, and the Hunan Army was not completely stupid. He found that Xing Rong had run away, and some of them followed him, but there were not many people, only a few thousand people. Most of the remaining ones put down their weapons and surrendered.
This battle was really too easy. Faced with the attack of Deng's army, the Hunan Army had no power to fight back, and was directly killed and captured more than 10,000 people.
When Murong Ke saw Xing Rong running away, he was about to chase him, but when he saw more than 10,000 Hunan Army prisoners, his head hurt. He had only 10,000 people, and he wanted to chase Xing Rong and guard the prisoners. It was a bit difficult.
Just when Murong Ke was in a dilemma, Li Dingguo arrived. After receiving Murong Ke's message, Li Dingguo rushed over without stopping, marched all the way, and finally arrived when Murong Ke was in a dilemma.
When Murong Ke saw Li Dingguo, he was overjoyed and said, "General Li, you are here just in time!" The appearance of Li Dingguo solved Murong Ke's embarrassment all at once.
Li Dingguo looked around and breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the battle had ended. He said to Murong Ke: "General Murong, what's the situation?"
Murong Ke said: "The chief general of the Hunan Army fled with thousands of people. I was about to take people to chase him, but there were so many prisoners here, and I was having a headache. Just come."
After discussion, Li Dingguo took the prisoners back with 10,000 troops, and Murong Ke took 20,000 people to chase Xing Rong.
On the other hand, after Xing Rong escaped, he looked at the team of only a few thousand people left behind him, and was in tears. Wu Qi, who was standing beside him, looked at Xing Rong with a complaint, and the look he looked at Xing Rong even more embarrassed.
At this time, Deng Jun shouted to kill from behind, and Xing Rong quickly turned over and continued to run away.
Murong Ke led 20,000 troops to chase him and chased him directly under the city of Ai County.
Ai County is the western gateway of the Wu Kingdom. The city is strong and thousands of soldiers guarded. Murong Ke also came in a hurry and did not bring siege equipment, so he could only sigh at the city. However, Murong Ke had no regrets. Now that the Hunan Army has been defeated, he can no longer cause trouble for the Deng army. So Murong Ke returned to Nanchang after two days of stockpiling troops in Ai County.
At this time, on the west side of the Wuyi Mountains, teams of soldiers under the banner of "Yue" walked out of Wuyi Mountain. These were the soldiers of Yue. King Yue had long been eyeing the territory of Wu. Now with the help of Deng, how could she not seize the opportunity? So she sent general Ren Long to command 50,000 troops to cross the Wuyi Mountains and enter Yuzhang.
"General Xian, what did Deng's army say?" Ren Long said to the Vietnam General Xian Gong at the foot of Wuyi Mountain.
Xian Gong said: "Go back to the general, Deng's army has just sent people. He said that the main force of Wu's army in Yuzhang is now restrained in Pengze, and the Hunan Army that came to disrupt the situation was also defeated by Deng's general Murong Ke. At the same time, Nanchang City of Yuzhang's headquarters has also been captured by Deng's army. Deng's army sent people to inform us and let us take over Nanchang."
Ren Long nodded with a smile. Deng Jun was still very sincere. Even the largest city in Yuzhang, Nanchang, was given up as soon as he said he wanted. It seems that this time he cooperated with Deng Jun, he would definitely get what he wanted.
So Ren Long said, "Okay, since that's the case, then hurry up and gather troops and set off to Nanchang immediately."
"Here!"
On the tenth day of the 14th year of Qianyuan, the Vietnamese army arrived in Nanchang City. Murong Ke led his troops to leave Nanchang. Even more than 10,000 Hunan prisoners were given to the Vietnamese army, and the Vietnamese army officially entered Nanchang.
The sudden appearance of the Vietnamese army made Zhou Kai realize that the situation in Yuzhang was becoming more and more confusing, and the Deng army took the initiative to give Nanchang to the Vietnamese army, which means that the Vietnamese army was attracted by the Deng army.
Zhou Kai was not worried at all when Deng's army occupied the city of Yuzhang. After all, with the Navy of Wu Kingdom controlling the Yangtze River, it was difficult for Deng Kingdom to occupy Yuzhang. As long as the time goes by, Deng's army will definitely withdraw, and the city it lost will still belong to Wu.
But now that the Vietnamese army is coming, it is very different. Yue has always been the old enemy of Wu. If Yue Kingdom was allowed to occupy Yuzhang, even if it only occupied some cities, it would be a nightmare for Wu. Therefore, the war with Deng cannot continue. Only by cease-and-fighting with Deng Kingdom and expel Yue Kingdom and ensuring that Yuzhang is complete is the top priority. So Zhou Kai hurriedly wrote a letter to the King of Wu and asked the King of Wu to send people to negotiate peace with Deng Kingdom. Otherwise, it would be too late. The Yue army would probably occupy the entire Yuzhang.
