Chapter 597: No speculation

Afterwards, Li Yu summoned Feng Shao and Yuanwai to come over.

Now, Li Yu has changed back to his original appearance.

Yuanwai Feng could not recognize him, but he could recognize his clothes.

Seeing Feng Shao looking at him with shock, Li Yu said, "Mr. Feng, I am Li Yu!"

Feng Shao was shocked, and he knelt down and said tremblingly: "Cao...Cao people pay homage to His Highness the King of Wu!"

Li Yu pulled Feng Shao up and said with a smile: "Mr. Feng, don't be nervous.

We are not monsters, we will not kill people by chance, we will not be bandits, we will not force the people's property.

The village slaughtering and the like mentioned earlier are all lying to you!”

Feng Shao smiled bitterly.

Now he already knows what's going on.

The purpose of the King of Wu was to use the people of Fengjia Town, one was to sneak into Longmen Pass, and the other was to lead Gaoyang Hou away.

Li Yu said: "There is a big battle at Longmen Pass. Mr. Feng takes the townspeople with him. Go back quickly. If it is too late, it will probably be affected by the war!"

Feng Shao kowtowed repeatedly and thanked him. Then, he took the villagers of Fengjia Town and hurried out of Longmen Pass.

After dealing with these trivial matters, Li Yu immediately set out to arrange the city defense.

At the same time, he sent people to Saro and Huaian County respectively.

The person who went to Saro State informed Shen Fang and immediately led his army back to the country and rushed to Longmen Pass.

The person who went to Huaian County informed Jing Yu that he would quickly summon a soldier for himself in the shortest time and rush to Longmen Pass.

How many people can be summoned, even hundreds or thousands.

Li Yu was very busy, and Zhang Huai, the Marquis of Gaoyang on the other side, was searching for the whereabouts of the rebels in Fengjia Town.

When they arrived in Fengjia Town, the building was already empty, but there were traces of the army passing by.

Many people's homes were chaotic and their property was still there, but their food was almost robbed.

Zhang Huai realized that the rebels had indeed come here, but he could not judge when they left, and it probably didn't take long.

He immediately sent a large number of scouts to investigate the whereabouts of the rebels.

Before he could find the rebels, he waited for Wu Ti, who was carried by several soldiers on the door panel.

Wu Ti was covered in blood. When he saw Zhang Huai, he screamed and burst into tears.

Zhang Huai's eyes widened and he asked loudly: "Wu Ti, what's going on?"

Wu Ti quickly told Zhang Huai about how Li Yu and others got into the city, how he accidentally held him hostage, and how he occupied Longmen Pass.

After hearing this, Zhang Huai's head buzzed, his eyes turned black, and he almost fell to the ground.

Li Yu did not catch it, but instead threw away the Longmen Pass he guarded. If this was passed to the court, would he still have a way out?

Zhang Huai's face was red, white, and black.

He roared suddenly, pulled out the sword under his ribs, waved them out suddenly, and with a click, Wu Ti and the door panel under him were cut in half.

Looking at Wu Ti's two pieces of corpse, he stabbed several times in disgust, and then shouted to the soldiers around him: "Go back to Longmen Pass! Come back to Longmen Pass immediately!"

Zhang Huai led his 50,000 troops and hurried back to Longmen Pass.

When they came back, Longmen Pass was firmly controlled by Li Yu.

He raised his eyes to look at the top of the city. The defenders on the top of the city were soldiers wearing military uniforms and armor, and more men in casual clothes.

Those in casual clothes are all flying guards.

Zhang Huai urged the horse to run forward for a distance. As an arrow shot from the city, he immediately stopped the horse, raised his eyes to look at the city, shouted loudly, "I am Zhang Huai, the Marquis of Gaoyang!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an echo came from the top of the city: "Zhang Huai, do you still know me?"

Zhang Huaixun looked at him and saw a person standing in the city gate tower. This person was none other than Li Yu.

Seeing Li Yu clearly, Zhang Huai's heart beat faster and his body leaned forward involuntarily.

He immediately intervened and bowed, saying, "Your Highness the King of Wu should not follow the example of the Eight Kings plotting against rebellion and ruining the hard-earned reputation of a lifetime! I would like to advise Your Highness to bow down to the court as soon as possible, admit your mistakes and repent. This is the right way!"

Li Yu smiled indifferently and said, "Li Guan killed his father and seized the throne. It is better to be a pig or dog. If you bow down to him, wouldn't you help the evildoer to abuse him?

Zhang Huai, Brother Ling Dangyin Marquis sacrifices his life for the country, don’t let Brother Ling’s heroic spirit be covered with dust because of you!”

When Zhang Huai heard this, he was furious and shouted: "Since the King of Wu has said this, I have nothing to say. Today, we can only meet in war!"

After saying that, Zhang Huai looked at Li Yu on the top of the city again, turned his horse's head, and ran back to his camp.

As soon as Zhang Huai came, the 50,000 army sounded the horn of the attack.

At this time, there were indeed not many defenders in Longmen Pass. The flying guards and the soldiers who turned against each other were only 10,000 people.

The attacking Zhang Huai tribe had 50,000 people.

There is a huge gap in the strength of the two sides.

But the attacking party was full of thunder and little rain.

When the soldiers advanced to a hundred steps away from Longmen Pass, they began to slow down. When they were fifty steps away from the city, their advancement stopped.

Very simple.

Zhang Huai led his troops out of the city to encircle Li Yu, and did not carry siege weapons.

Now they want to attack the city. Without the assistance of large-scale siege equipment, they rely solely on manpower to move forward, which is no different from killing.

When Zhang Huai rushed back to Longmen Pass, he had already sent people to nearby cities and urgently transferred siege equipment.

Now he ordered an attack, just to use a feint to hold Li Yu as much as possible.

He was also worried that Li Yu would abandon the city and flee and run into Qinzhou.

Qinzhou belongs to Li Yu's territory. Once Li Yu enters Qinzhou, he will have no chance to take him down.

The soldiers under Zhang Huai's command had a full feint attack for three or four hours. It was not until the afternoon that the siege equipment temporarily drawn from nearby cities arrived at Longmen Pass.

As these siege equipment arrived, Zhang Huai immediately became full of confidence and sent orders to the entire army to change from feint attack to strong attack.

The battle between the two sides ranged from afternoon to late at night.

This battle with huge differences in military strength between the two sides became evenly matched.

The reason for this is mainly because the terrain of Longmen Pass is too unique, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

It is located in a mountain valley. No matter how many enemy troops come outside the city, the only thing the enemy can attack is only one city wall.

Even if a million troops come, they will be held in the mountains and valleys and are difficult to perform.

For the defenders, it is very easy to defend.

The defenders only need to focus on defending a city wall without distraction.

He was worried that his side could not capture him for a long time and had lost his troops and generals. Zhang Huai was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

Just at this moment, a large-scale and magnificent lineup appeared behind him.
