Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 457 There's an Ambush

At this time, there were almost no supplies left by Zhou Yu's army in Moling County.

Zhou Yu didn't have much supplies in the first place, and had already taken away most of the things when he retreated before. Although Han Dang retreated hastily now, there was really nothing left in Moling County for Zhu Wei's army to capture.

Therefore, although Wang Yuyan led troops to occupy Moling County in this battle, they only captured some weapons and leather armor from Zhou Yu's soldiers who died in the battle, and then only [-] to [-] defenders were captured.

Most of the captured soldiers were the same soldiers stationed in the two military strongholds outside the city. The other soldiers were basically led by Han Dang to withdraw from Moling County.

In this way, Wang Yuyan quickly cleared up the mess in Moling County and turned Moling County into a military command base for her.

Then Wang Yuyan immediately sent out scouts to track down the whereabouts of Zhou Yu's troops. At the same time, she was also preparing to send people to contact Tai Shi Ci to find out whether Tai Shi Ci had intercepted Zhou Yu's troops who had retreated before.

But not long after Wang Yuyan was sitting in Moling County to deal with affairs, Chen Heng and Yu Fan, who had been sent to hunt down and kill Zhou Yu's remnant soldiers who had fled from Moling County, retreated a bit awkwardly.

It turned out that they chased the defeated soldiers brought by Han Dang smoothly at the beginning, defeated and surrendered many defeated soldiers that Han Dang took away from Moling County along the way.

But after that, as they chased to a hill and forest about two miles east of Moling County, suddenly there was a deafening shout and killing, and they encountered Zhou Yu's ambush here.

At that time, the sky was getting dark, and Chen Heng and Yu Pan were a little flustered when they met suddenly. Seeing Zhou Yu's ambush in the surrounding hills and forests, there was a lot of movement, and they didn't know how many ambush soldiers there were. He could barely stabilize his soldiers and horses, so he withdrew back to Moling County.

According to their afterthoughts, they were lucky to be able to withdraw in this way, but the remnant soldiers from Moling County led by Han Dang also took the opportunity to join Zhou Yu's soldiers and horses who were ambushing there, and now they don't know where they went .

However, Chen Heng and Yu Yu found a safe place to count their losses afterwards, and found that the soldiers and horses they brought with them did not suffer many casualties. They were defeated when they encountered an ambush at the beginning. At the same time, they had captured and surrendered. Zhou Yu's soldiers also ran away a lot that time.

Later, Chen Heng and Yu Fan gathered up a lot of soldiers who had been scattered before, but found that they only lost more than 100 soldiers in the ambush this time, and they still preserved their strength.

So Chen Heng and Yu Fan had no choice but to return to Moling County depressed, and reported to Wang Yuyan about their encounter with the defeated soldiers.

But Wang Yuyan asked them about the details of the ambush, but in the end she smiled and said to them, "I'm afraid the two generals were deceived. Although Zhou Yu set up an ambush, the number of ambushes will never exceed two." Thousands, maybe even only a thousand or so, maybe it was just Zhou Yu who arranged to meet the retreating troops who stayed behind in Moling! It was a false alarm for the two generals!"

"Ah, how is this possible, but..., but at that time, the mountains and forests were full of people, and the ambush was probably no less than [-] people. Otherwise, the two of us would not have withdrawn immediately!"

Yu Fan couldn't believe it. The scene he saw at that time was in the dark sky. There were many figures in the hills and forests in front of him. It seemed that countless ambush soldiers came out of the mountains and forests. He was so scared that he almost jumped off his horse. fell down.

Chen Heng also widened his eyes and said, "Yes, military advisor, how could there be only more than two thousand people, or even more than a thousand people, at least ten thousand people, ten thousand people! Perhaps Zhou Yu's main force was lying in ambush over there. It's also a good thing that X and Yu Ping escaped quickly, otherwise all the soldiers we led would have been wiped out there!"

"Hahaha, there is no way it could be ten thousand people. If there are more than ten thousand people ambushing, how can the two of you return safely? How can the loss of soldiers be only a hundred people! They must have been deceived by Zhou Yu's tricks , but no matter, now that the city of Moling County has fallen, there is no dangerous obstacle to the direction of Danyang City. If nothing happens, Tai Shici should have occupied Jurong County by now, so even if Zhou Yu withdraws early, he may be killed by Tai Shici's soldiers. Intercept!"

Seeing that Yu Fan and Chen Heng still didn't believe it, Wang Yuyan couldn't help laughing at them again, and then went to the Jiangdong map that had just been carried from the big tent of the military camp, and pointed out the area between Moling County and Danyang City.

Now in this area, there are no other dangerous places that can be blocked. Although there are some terrains such as hills and forests in this area, these places can also be detoured, and there is no way to stop Zhu Wei's army. .

However, there is still a small county between Moling County and Danyang City, which is Jurong County.

However, the county seat of Jurong County is dilapidated and not an important military location. There are many rivers in Jurong County connecting the Qinhuai River, Taihu Lake and Yangtze River.

Uh, speaking of it, the most famous place in Jurong County is Maoshan, which is where Maoshan Taoism is located. However, in today’s era, Maoshan is just a wild mountain where Taoists live in seclusion, and it is not as famous as it is in later generations.

Of course, this Jurong County cannot be used as an obstacle to prevent Zhu Wei's army from moving forward. Even if Zhou Yu occupies Jurong County, it cannot prevent Zhu Wei's army from reaching Danyang City like occupying Moling County.

Besides, before Wang Yuyan sent Tai Shici to bypass Moling County by water, Tai Shici was also allowed to occupy Jurong County in the first place.

In this way, Tai Shici can use Jurong County as the base point to rescue Danyang City at any time in the east, and send troops to attack the east gate of Moling County in the west, or intercept Zhou Yu's troops withdrawing from Moling County.

In Wang Yuyan's conception, even if Zhou Yu withdrew his troops early from Moling County, Tai Shici in Jurong County should be able to stop him halfway.

It's a pity that Wang Yuyan couldn't know all this at the first time. If Zhu Wei was here, he would be able to know the location of his army, and even Zhou Yu's army, just by looking directly at the map of the Three Kingdoms game system.

And now, even if Zhu Wei saw this through the game map of the Three Kingdoms, it would be impossible for him to send the news from Nanyang County to Wang Yuyan in Danyang County.

Even if the news was sent all the way down the Yangtze River, by the time Wang Yuyan saw it, Zhou Yu's army had already left the original area and gone to other places.

Therefore, Wang Yuyan can only make a rough guess now, but she can't be sure whether Tai Shici has sent troops to rob and kill Zhou Yu's soldiers. Everything needs to be scouted out to investigate, or to contact Tai Shici to find out.

However, after hearing Wang Yuyan's words, Chen Heng and Yu Fan still couldn't believe it, and looked at each other hesitantly. If what Wang Yuyan said was right, then they were really scared back just now, and not only lost their pursuit. Credit, but a bit embarrassing defeat in vain...
