Chapter 100 Zhuge Liang's 'Negligence'

After breaking through Pengcheng, Lu Bu only left [-] soldiers in a stable place in Pengcheng. At the same time, he won the hearts of the people, distributed grain, and stabilized logistics.The rest of the army continued to advance without stopping, heading towards Yancheng.

~~~

Yancheng, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei arrived first this time.

However, there were only 5000 defenders in Yancheng, and with the 5000 brought by Guan and Zhang, there were only [-].

When Guan and Zhang led the army, they immediately ordered the defenders in the city to abandon Yancheng, and let the people in the city leave Yancheng with money and food, and go to the countryside and forests to hide, leaving an empty city alone.

Immediately afterwards, Guan and Zhang ordered the army to break up into pieces and go to the mountains and forests and villages around Yancheng. Together with the nearby people, they waited for an opportunity to harass Lv Bu's army. It would be very difficult for Lv Bu's army to clean up these small groups of troops.

If these small groups of troops are not cleaned up, then these small groups of troops will not only threaten Lv Bu's logistics at all times, but also can gather multiple troops of more than [-] people at any time to directly cut off Lv Bu's logistics supplies.

The plan is very good, but at this time, Guan and Zhang have not realized that these scattered soldiers have weapons in their hands, and now there is no superior jurisdiction and restraint. After a while, those who are tired of war and fear of death will leave the army, and it is bound to cause harm to the people in the nearby villages, and then there will be troubles because of the food problem, and the entire city of Yan will become smoky for hundreds of miles.Even the army may not be able to gather again in the future.

Zhuge Liang may have expected it, but Zhuge Liang didn't remind the two of them, or this in itself was an effect Zhuge Liang wanted.

Because Zhuge Liang knew that neither the Huns nor the Xianbei could cut off Lu Bu's logistics, and it was unlikely that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei would want to cut off Lu Bu's logistics by relying on Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but it was just a try.

But since Lu Bu claimed that there were immortals to help him, and that he was an army to save the world, he couldn't ignore these stragglers and disrupt the common people, so that his purpose of delaying time would be achieved.

Lü Bu's army is so strong that it cannot be stopped by manpower, but natural disasters can. As long as there is delay, and when the rainy season comes, they can use the power of natural disasters to defeat Lv Bu's army.

The preparations he spoke of were, of course, preparations for making natural disasters even more terrifying, as well as preparations for relief after natural disasters.

It is also because of this that he needs to send Guan and Zhang away.Otherwise, these two people will definitely not agree to this plan that hurts Tianhe, and Liu Bei will probably be shaken if he is persuaded by these two people.

----after one day----

Outside Yancheng in the evening, Lu Bu's army came in formation. Looking at Yancheng, which was empty on the wall and the gates were wide open, Lu Bu frowned, and immediately sent more than 20 elite soldiers into the city to investigate.

"Report to my lord, there are no soldiers or civilians in Yancheng, and all the livestock and food have been taken away. It is already an empty city!"

After a while, a soldier hurried back to report to Lu Bu.

"Empty city!" Hearing this, Lu Bu frowned immediately, and then ordered a general next to him: "Investigate again, and send another 500 people into the city to investigate. Make sure to investigate carefully."

"Yes!" Hearing this, a general beside Lu Bu immediately took orders, and Dang Li personally ordered five hundred cavalry to enter the city.

~~~

After a while, the general's deputy came and reported to Lu Bu: "My lord, there are indeed no soldiers and people in the city, and all the supplies in the city have been removed, leaving an empty city. After careful inspection, no tunnels were found."

Hearing this, Fang Ru frowned and thought about it, and said to Lv Bu: "My lord, this Liu Bei left an empty city alone. I'm afraid it's a fraud. If you don't guard against it, just send [-] elite soldiers to the city to garrison. The cavalry is looking for the nearby villages in units of hundreds of cavalry to investigate the situation."

"Alright!" Lu Bu nodded, and Dang even called the cavalry general to give the task down.At the same time, they ordered to set up camp on the spot and bury pots for cooking.

After the battle between the Xiongnu and Xianbei, and the large number of horses and cattle sent by the Qiang and Hu for peace, the number is in the millions.

Therefore, Lu Bu also has a lot of cavalry in his hands. Among the 20 troops that went to Lu Bu this time, there were a full [-] cavalry.

This is not counting the cavalry responsible for protecting the logistics of transportation.It is also because there are a large number of cattle, horses, vehicles, and cavalry that the transportation volume is greater and the transportation speed is faster. Lu Bu and Cao Cao dared to make up their minds to rescue the victims and people in various places along the road.

Otherwise, the heavy logistics alone would be unbearable for the two of them. After all, this is not only responsible for the logistics of the army, but also the logistics of millions of people in the captured areas.

Of course, as they occupy more territory and gather more people's hearts, they will also have more troops and people responsible for transportation and logistics.As long as the pace is not too big, it will be a virtuous circle.

--------

Changyan Village is a village near Yancheng. There are only about a hundred households in the whole village.

Just the day before yesterday, many relatives who lived in the city came to the village and said that Lv Bu's army was coming, and Yancheng was about to fight, so the people in the city went to the countryside to escape the war.

But yesterday, more than 50 soldiers came to the village. Under the leadership of a centurion, the people in the village gave them support and cooperated with them to resist Lu Bu's army.

In this regard, the villagers naturally did not believe it, and only thought that they were defeated soldiers and deserters.

But seeing that these soldiers were holding weapons in their hands, who would dare to object? The village chief also arranged for some houses to live in in the village and cooked a lot of meals for them.

But something happened last night. Three daughters in the village were raped by these soldiers.Today, the village chief also had to bite the bullet and gather the villagers to ask for an explanation.

Although the village chief also knew that the leading officer would rely on their village for support in the future, and he would probably help them out, but he would only punish them with small punishments, and he would offend those soldiers who committed crimes.

But he has to do it, otherwise these soldiers will only get worse, and the villagers will be completely disappointed in him as the village chief, and even cause even greater disasters.

"Drag these guys down for me, beat them back with twenty army sticks, and if they commit another crime, they will definitely be executed!"

In the village center in the morning, when the leading officer heard the complaint from the village chief, Dang even found out those people and ordered punishment.

Of course, just as the village chief thought, it was just a small punishment and a big warning.

Then the officer said loudly to the village chief and the assembled villagers:

"Village chief, fellow villagers, I'm really sorry. The soldiers under me have been in the barracks for a long time, and I can't bear to break the precept. I am here to apologize to the village chief and all the villagers."

Hearing the officer's almost insincere apology, the villagers didn't dare to say anything, although they were unwilling.He even had to control the three girls and their parents, for fear that they would do something radical here.

"Boom...!"

At this moment, a rush of horseshoes suddenly came from outside the village.

Before the villagers figured it out, hundreds of cavalrymen rushed into the village on horseback, and the villagers panicked for a while.

These cavalry came so fast that even the guards outside the village didn't have time to report back.

What made the villagers even more terrified was that the armor worn by these cavalry was obviously not Liu Beijun's.All the villagers fled in all directions.

"Ready to fight!" Seeing this, the fifty or so members of Liu Bei's army took up weapons one after another and formed a circular formation.To deal with so many cavalry, running is absolutely impossible, it will only die faster, and only one battle can have a chance to survive.

"It's over!"

Seeing this, the village chief immediately sat down on the ground.

The crime of covering up the enemy's deserters may mean that the whole village will die. Even if it is not pursued, after a scuffle between the two sides, I am afraid that many people will be implicated and killed.
