The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 521 Di Qing's Strategy
Because Yichun was too easy to win, Sun Ce didn't listen to Lu Su's advice, and insisted on approaching Xingan to attack Yuzhang.

Sun Ce even let Lu Su and Sun Quan stay in Yichun, and set off with the army himself.

The army arrived at Xingan after ten days of advancing. Pang Ji and Gu Shao on the city wall watched Sun Ce's army below the city.

"Listen to the defenders on the city wall, this is the 'little overlord' Sun Ce, don't hesitate to surrender! Otherwise, the city will be destroyed!"

Maybe Sun Ce wanted to prove his judgment was correct, this Pang Ji was just like Qin Hui, who was greedy for life and afraid of death, and personally beat him immediately to persuade him to surrender!

If it was Grand Master Pang from the Three Heroes and Five Righteousnesses, let alone the very possibility that he would not surrender, it would be a joke to make fun of the majestic grand master, traitors and treacherous ministers who did a good job, what good would it do to surrender you, Sun Ce?
"Whoo! Whoosh! Whoosh!" Arrows shot out from the city wall, and one of them shot directly at Sun Ce's face.

Seeing that many arrows were shot from the city wall, Sun Ce's face turned ugly instantly. Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Chen Wu, Xing Daorong and others who followed Sun Ce opened the arrows with their weapons. The first fire pattern gun sweeps away the arrows one by one!

The guards on the city wall expressed their position by acting on their own, not as soft-boned as Qin Hui.

This time without Lu Su's advice, Sun Ce had no choice but to order the siege of the city, cutting wood and building equipment to prepare for the attack.

As a partial division for a feint attack, Sun Cejun did not bring a death camp this time, and even very few craftsmen, so the methods of attacking Jiangling last year when attacking Xingancheng were useless!

Fortunately, Xingan City is not a fortified city. The city wall is only a foot high, so it should be easy to break through.

However, it was clear that the defender Pang Ji gave Sun Ce a blow in the face. After Sun Ce attacked for a few days, this Xingan still stood firm.

Pang Ji is stubbornly stationed in Xingan, while our southern commander, Di Qing, has already led the army to Yuzhang, joining Zhang Hong, Ling Cao, Gao Huaide and others.

The Huainan army of Ling Cao and Gao Huaide arrived in Yuzhang a few days earlier than Di Qing. It is indeed much faster to rescue Yuzhang from Huainan than Moling. As long as you go from Hefei to Lujiang in the south and cross the Yangtze River by boat, you will be the northernmost point in Yuzhang. Chaisang, continue several hundred li to the south and arrive at Yuzhang City.

On the way here, Di Qing had already received the news that Yichun was lost and Xingan was under siege. At this time, all the troops to rescue Yuzhang had gathered except for Zhang He, Gao Lan and the Hebei army who were still on the way.

At this time, in the meeting hall of Yuzhang City, Di Qinggao was sitting on top, on the left was the mistress Lu Lingji, on the right was Zhang Hong, the person in charge of Jingnan, followed by Yuan Wu and Xun Chen, the two military advisers, and the Huainan army leader Ling Cao, Gao Huaide and the other side were Moling Reserve Commander Yu Jin and Chun Yuqiong, and Jin Yiwei Qianhu Gu Wu and Lu Er.

The rest of the generals lined up with Yuzhang Wenwu, including Sha Moke, Tao Sanchun, Zhao Yu, Hua Xin, Zhao Shen, Wei Jing and others.

Di Qing bowed hands together with Lu Lingji and Zhang Hong to pay respects, and then he bowed to everyone and said, "All of you are elites under the lord's command, relying on great talents, Sun Ce's invasion of Jingnan situation, someone has already learned on the way, soldiers are precious and fast I don't want to be too polite, I hope everyone can help Di and resist Sun Ce! Thank you in advance!"

"General Di is so polite!", "General Di Qing speaks seriously!", "We will do our best!"

Di Qing suppressed the matter and everyone was quiet: "Now that Di has made up his mind to respond to the current situation, may I ask Gu Wu and Lu Er, two thousands of households, whether there are Jin Yiwei lurking in the city of Xingan and Yichun that has fallen?"

"Report to Marshal! Of course!" Gu Wuyi replied, and Di Qing nodded to show that he knew.

"Mr. Zhang Hong has been in Yuzhang for a long time, do you know if there is a dangerous place between Xingan and Yuzhang City, which is a suitable place to set up camp to stop Sun Ce's army?"

Zhang Hong thought for a while when he heard Di Qing's words, and made a point on the map: "There are mountains on both sides of this place. There is only one road in the middle, which is suitable for the Marshal's request!"

"Okay! The mistress and the two generals Yu Jin and Chun Yuqiong are here to build an army camp here, and Sun Ce must not let Sun Ce go one step further."

"Here!" X3
"Pang Ji is a student of Mr. Di, and Di needs Pang Ji to pretend to be invincible, give up Xingan and go to Linru to garrison."

"This? Please tell the Marshal what to do!" Zhang Hong heard that Di Qing was going to give up Xingan. Although the room has been arranged, the army village is still not as strong as the city.

After thinking about it, Di Qing explained: "Mr. Zigang, Di didn't give up Xingan for nothing, he personally led Ling Cao and Gao Huaide's Huainan army to Jiancheng, and then went south to cooperate with Jin Yiwei to retake Xingan and cut off Sun Ce's retreat.

At the same time, after the two generals Zhang He and Gao Lan arrived, they ordered them to attack Yichun together.

Since Sun Ce went so far alone, Di was going to trap Sun Ce to death in this Yuzhang! "

"Marshal Di has a great plan, but the road from Jiancheng to Xingan is very difficult, and there are mountains and ridges to cross. Marshal Di, please be fully prepared!"

"Thank you, Mr. Zi Gang, for reminding me!" After Di Qing thanked him first, everyone had no objection, and asked everyone to prepare.

The next day two armies came out from Yuzhang City, the first one was Lu Lingji leading Tao Sanchun, Zhao Yu, Yu Jin, and Chun Yuqiong to the south, while the second one was Di Qing leading Ling Cao, Gao Huaide, Shamo Ke, Yuan Wu and others, as well as the Huainan army, set off westward.

Di Qing and the others set out, and even buried a hole to wait for Sun Ce to jump, of course the latter didn't know!
At this time, Sun Ce was storming Xingan. After dozens of days, Sun Ce gradually felt that the defense force was getting weaker and weaker. Obviously, Pang Ji's troops in Xingan were insufficient.

Finally, one day, when Sun Ce was about to attack the city, he found that the defenders had almost no resistance, and easily hit the city wall. After entering the city, he found that the defenders had escaped from the east gate last night in the dark.

"Haha! I thought that Pang Ji was a tough guy, but I didn't expect someone who is as greedy for life and afraid of death as Qin Hui! If Lu Heng uses this kind of person, he will die sooner or later!" Sun Ce saw that although Xin Gan was hindered, it was nothing. Pang Ji ran away no matter how hard he tried, laughing at Qin Song, Chen Duan and others!
"Exactly! My lord's words are absolutely true!"

"Retire for three days, and set off this time our army will lay down the Yuzhang!"

"Bofu will take it when he sees it. Yuzhang is the city of Yuzhang County. The city is strong and deep. The news came from the scouts. The enemy general Di Qing has entered Yuzhang with his army. I will not go any further!"

When Cheng Pu saw Sun Ce, he wanted to continue calling Yuzhang to persuade him. This was also Lu Su's request to Cheng Pu.

Coupled with the fact that Cheng Pu is quite strategic and cautious, Lu Su believes that with such an identity, he should be able to persuade Sun Ce.
