Rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 452
Seeing that Su Fei couldn't be persuaded, Fei Yi could only sigh deeply as he watched the people leaving the city, and hurried to find Magistrate Wang.

Fei Yi said: "Su Fei will definitely fall into Zhou Yu's plan if he goes here. Anlu may be difficult to defend. Please prepare to retreat quickly."

County Magistrate Wang asked in surprise, "It must be the news from Jingzhou that the Wu army retreated, and General Su took advantage of the victory to pursue him. Will he fall into the trap?"

Fei Yi said anxiously: "Zhou Yu is good at using troops, how can he retreat without fighting when reinforcements arrive?"

The county magistrate Wang was doubtful, but it happened that Fei Boren also came and said: "Although my nephew has never led an army, he has also broken the plan. This matter is suspicious, and it is best to be prepared."

County magistrate Wang panicked, and hurriedly asked, "What should I do?"

Fei Yi said: "Immediately send an order to pile up dry firewood at the four gates and set fire to them, and the troops and horses will retreat from the west gate."

The county magistrate Wang asked, "What about the people in the city?"

Fei Yi said: "Eastern Wu wants to take Jiangxia and seek Jingzhou. It will surely appease the people and buy people's hearts. It will never kill innocent people indiscriminately. It is only necessary for the officers and soldiers to retreat."

The county magistrate Wang hurriedly issued an order, and the government office and military camp were in chaos immediately. Only after the fire was lit, many defeated troops returned to the city one after another, all of them looked panicked.

County magistrate Wang caught one person and questioned him. Sure enough, it was Su Fei who was chasing the enemy and was ambushed by Wu soldiers halfway.

County magistrate Wang turned pale with shock, knowing that Fei Yi's words were true, he hurriedly led people to escape to Yunshe, and Su Fei's life was ignored.

Zhou Yu set up an ambush in the reed swamp ten miles outside Anlu City, pretending to retreat and ambush Su Fei. The Jingzhou soldiers were killed by surprise, and Su Fei was captured alive by Pan Zhang in panic.

Zhou Yu immediately ordered Lü Meng to fetch Anlu. He saw thick smoke billowing in the city from a distance, and didn't know what was going on. Lü Meng was worried that there was an ambush in the city, so he waited outside for Zhou Yu to come to meet him.

Zhou Yu led his troops to arrive, and said with a sneer, "This must be the defenders fleeing, deliberately setting fire to bluff, I advance into the city, and Ziming leads three thousand troops to chase along the river, and there will be something."

Lu Meng looked ashamed and urged his troops to chase the defenders, secretly determined that this time he must capture the county magistrate and save his face.

Speeding up his horse, Lu Meng quickly caught up with the stragglers who fled from Anlu, and arrested two people for questioning. Hearing that the magistrate of Anlu was just ahead, he couldn't help cheering up and urged his horse to chase after him.

County magistrate Wang, Fei Yi and the others were running for their lives in a hurry when they suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes behind them.

The army of Wu came in a menacing manner, and the people and horses were densely packed on the shore, especially the hundreds of cavalry in front, rushing in like a wave. Facing the scorching sun slanting to the west, the armor and weapons gleamed coldly, unstoppable.

"Hurry up, cross the river quickly!" County magistrate Wang was not good at riding, how could he compare with these cavalrymen, and hurriedly called to cross the river.

But at this time, the troops were in a panic, and there was no time to prepare the boats. The soldiers fled separately, and no one cared about their lives.

"We'll stop!" Fei Yi was helpless and sighed up to the sky.

The cavalry came roaring, and the whole army came to a standstill, lined up neatly, staring at the panicked Jingzhou army on the bank.

Lu Meng urged him to go forward immediately, and shouted, "The one who descends will not be killed!"

Rumbling--

Just at the moment of confusion, another group of horsemen suddenly came from the mountain in front of the right, and the sound of heavy hoofbeats could be heard from a distance. Although the distance was far, the sound was louder than that of Lu Meng and the other cavalry.

"Where are the troops?" Lu Meng's face changed slightly when he saw the cavalry.

I saw that this cavalry was all wearing white helmets and white armor. Although the distance was far, it could be seen that the horses were very handsome, and they swept towards the dust like a floating white cloud.
Just as he was wondering, the opponent had already approached and stopped slowly on the upper reaches of the river bank. While slowing down, all the soldiers had already set up their formation, which looked like a formation of arrows ready to charge at any time.

Lu Menggang's cavalry is considered elite, but compared with these people, they are almost the same as those horses pulling carts. The soldiers on the opposite side are not only skilled in riding, but also well-equipped. A random horse is even more handsome than his own mount .

Lu Meng couldn't help but shine his eyes, and then looked at the person in front, with silver helmets and armor, and white robes fluttering in the wind, especially the person in front, with a face like a crown jade, majestic, with a moon-white belt inlaid with a row of pearls, and the horse on his crotch Raising its hooves and neighing like an angry dragon baring its teeth and claws.

"Changshan Zhao Zilong is here, Wu Jun is going crazy!" Under the eyes of all the people, the man shouted.

"Zhao Yun?!" Lu Meng gasped, and Wu Jun behind him was also in an uproar.

In just two days, Yingchuan's reinforcements arrived in Jiangxia. What a speed it is?
"General Zhao, is it really you? Great!"

County magistrate Wang was about to jump into the river to flee for his life. When he heard Zhao Yun's name and knew that the reinforcements sent by Liu He had arrived, he couldn't help being overjoyed and led his people to flee forward.

At this time, Lu Meng had no time to chase the deserters. He was staring at the white-robed general in front of him, and the white-horse cavalry behind him. This was one of Liu He's elites—the Feiyun Cavalry.

In the past two years in Jiangdong, Sun Ce has also been paying attention to Liu He's movements, and has a detailed understanding of his generals, soldiers and horses. Feiyunqi is good at speed, and he came quickly.

Lu Meng looked at the bright silver spear in Zhao Yun's hand, and knew that this man could fight Lu Bu more than a hundred times, and it was by no means a waste of fame, so he couldn't help fighting with high spirits.

The Jiangdong generals, because they are far away from the Central Plains, rarely have the opportunity to fight against famous generals. The veterans who followed Sun Jian all said how brave Lu Bu was, and that the Central Plains produced a large number of talents.

But Lu Meng and others scoffed when they heard it. After all, young people are young and energetic, arrogant, and think highly of themselves. How can they easily admit the strength of others?
Now it was finally time to test his strength, but Lu Meng couldn't help sweating his palms.

Zhao Yun was also observing Lu Meng. Seeing that the opponent was not moving, he was not in a hurry to attack. First of all, he had to figure out the enemy's strength, and secondly, he gave Fei Yunqi a short opportunity to adjust.

Since he was ordered to set off, Feiyun has been riding non-stop from Kunyang to Jiangxia. If it weren't for the excellent mount and the newly built horseshoes, the mountain road is so rugged that the horses might not be able to bear it.

Even so, it was still a step too late. Seeing the deserters from Anlu, Zhao Yun knew that he hadn't arrived in time. After those people were out of danger, he urged him to take a few steps forward and glanced coldly at the Wu soldiers.

Finally, he stopped his gaze on Lu Meng and asked in a deep voice, "Who is here?"

Lu Meng held the saber tightly with both hands, and said loudly, "Lu Meng, the pioneer of Eastern Wu!"

At this time, Lu Meng is a veritable "Ameng under Wu", a passionate young man with passion, following the example of the little overlord Sun Ce, fighting bravely and taking the lead.

Zhao Yun said coldly: "You guys disobeyed the king's orders, violated the frontiers repeatedly, violated the common people, do you want to plot rebellion?"

Lv Meng laughed loudly and said, "We are here for revenge, there is no need for you to interfere."

Zhao Yun's eyes froze slightly, and he said slowly: "Jingzhou has changed hands, if you retreat now, I will definitely not chase after you, please advise Sun Ce to withdraw from Jiangxia early, so that you can take care of yourself!"

"Hahaha, what a big tone!" Lu Meng laughed back angrily, and shouted: "If you want me to retreat, first defeat the knife in my hand!"

"Hmph, I don't know how to advance or retreat!"

Zhao Yun knew that Anlu had been occupied by the Wu army. If Lu Meng was not repelled, those who escaped would also be doomed.
