Chapter 858: Occupy North Korea's first step (first update)

Gongsun Kang had to heart-wrenching because he heard what Lu Xun and others said just now.

It was not enough to rob all his navy and loot half of his Liaodong county. It also had to capture the four Han counties, which were the territory of the former guards of Korea.

How can this not make Gongsun Kang heart-wrenching?

Because all his navy was destroyed, it would take at least half a month if he set off from here and arrived at the Yalu River. In addition, it would not include the time to mobilize food and grass and infantry.

After all, if there is a protracted war, it will definitely be assisted by infantry and food supply. On the contrary, Lu Xun and others have sea boats, and as long as they turn a corner, they will be Lelang County.

If Lu Xun first captured Lelang County, then captured half of Xuantu County, and a small part of Liaodong County, you can seize the Yalu River and use infantry to fight against his cavalry.

Moreover, since the Chu army has come, it will come continuously. With the strength of Yan State, how can it compete with it? Now, let alone conquering the large southern islands, even if it captures the three Koreans, it is impossible to move the capital to Pyongyang.

How can this not make Gongsun Kang heart-wrenching?

"Father, what should we do now?" said Gongsun Yuan next to him.

"If you raise an army, you must not let the Chu army gain a foothold. Even if there is a glimmer of hope, I will still compete with him for the four counties of Han." Gongsun Kang said with a ferocious expression when he heard this.

"promise."

Gongsun Yuan agreed to his promise after hearing this.

Immediately, Gongsun Kang and his son led 50,000 cavalry back to Xiangping and prepared for the horse and infantry.

………………………………

On the other hand, after Lu Xun and his men intertwined with Gongsun Kang and his son in Xiping, Yang Fan immediately came to Lelang County.

Lelang is the hinterland, and Gongsun Kang did not garrison here. Therefore, as soon as the Chu army arrived, the cities along the way were heard and surrendered. Lu Xun and others captured Lelang at a terrifying speed.

North Korea City.

At this moment, it has been officially captured by the Chu army. The "Chu"-shaped flag was also hung on the top of the city, and this time it was definitely not a short-term capture or robbery.

But a real occupation.

The power of Chu State met with the Korean county as the center and radiated out a land of about four or five counties, which was equivalent to a state.

At this moment, in the prefect of Korea County, Lu Xun had just appeased the prefects and officials in this area, and summoned Lu Meng and Fang Dao to discuss major events.

"North Korea has been captured now. Lelang is basically occupied. The rest is to lead a large army to capture part of Liaodong and part of Xuantu as soon as possible, occupy the Yalu River system, and Yang Fan to block Gongsun Kang's army."

Lu Xun said with great enthusiasm.

To be honest, it was their luck. Now it is summer, and the rivers on the Yalu River are surging. If it is winter, the snow and the river surface is frozen and Gongsun Kang's cavalry can gallop past, it will be a disaster.

Now the Chu army still has about 32,000 combat power, and the three or four thousand injured when they attacked Yecheng. With just a little time, they can recover their combat power of 34,500.

In addition, the nearly 20,000 troops that were captured from Gongsun Kang were about 55,000 troops.

Therefore, after thinking for a while, Lu Xun immediately said to Fang Dao: "General Fang, you should lead three thousand navy troops as soon as possible and lead one hundred and fifty large ships back to Chu State to ask Lord Situ for help."

Whether it was in the past or now, Lu Xun knew that with their strength, they could only stop Gongsun Kang for a while, so mobilizing reinforcements was the primary task.

"promise."

Fang Dao also knew this truth, so he agreed readily.

After responding, he turned around and walked out. After watching Fang Dao leave, Lu Xun turned his head to Lu Meng and said, "Ziming, please lead 20,000 troops to capture one part of Liaodong and one part of Xuantu, and occupy the Yalu River. Then divide the troops into three groups to deploy defenses. Build beacon towers in the Yalu River area."

The beacon tower conveys messages. As long as Gongsun Kang lands from somewhere, the beacon tower is ignited at once, and the army can hear the wind and resist.

"In this way, the general's army is only 12,000, but he has to control 20,000 surrendered troops?" Lu Meng said a little worried when he heard this.

"Don't worry about this. I plan to distribute the materials seized from Liaodong and Yecheng this time, including gold and silver, to the surrendered soldiers, and then place them on land to win their hearts." Lu Xun said with a smile.

"I promise to be profitable." Lu Meng nodded when he heard this and felt relieved.

Now in the troubled times, the army has very little loyalty. For example, in Liu Zhang's part, only Zhang Ren, Yan Yan and others are loyal and brave generals.

The rest are much worse.

And they surrendered the Yan *** team, killed the main general, and then reorganized it. In fact, they could barely be regarded as the Chu army, but after all, they had no morale.

If they make a profit, they will work hard to protect the benefits they get. There will be no problems in a short time. Lu Xun only needs to do it in a short time.

As long as this period of time is spent and when Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and others arrive, Gongsun Kang will be a piece of cake.

Immediately, Lu Meng bid farewell to leave.

After sitting alone for a while, Lu Xun waved his hand and said, "Beat the drum and accumulate a large army."

"No." The personal soldiers responded to the promise. After a moment, the drum beat was shaking, but the army gathered outside the city. Lu Xun also put on his armor and walked out.

Outside the city, countless camp tents have been erected on a large open space. Fangdao and Lu Meng have led their troops to carry out their missions.

The army left behind now is only more than 9,000 Chu troops with complete combat power, as well as three or four thousand injured Chu troops, and finally 20,000 surrendered troops from Yan State.

It is indeed a bit difficult to rule a 20,000 army with an army of ten thousand.

Soon, Lu Xun came to the schoolyard and stood on the stage. At the first moment, Lu Xun felt a little change in the army.

Although Fang Dao and Lu Meng each led the army to leave, the deterrence reduced, which made the former surrendered soldiers of Yan State seem to have slightly raised their momentum.

It has a bit unruly scent.

Lu Xun had already understood it, so he was not at a loss at this moment. Instead, he turned his head calmly and said to the personal soldiers next to him: "Transfer gold and silver and money."

"No." The personal soldiers agreed and walked down immediately.

In fact, Lu Xun's vocation of a lot of baggage in Yecheng was not necessarily gold, silver and money. For example, cloth can also exist as circulating currency.

Generally, the monarch will give cloth together with gold and silver.

But obviously Lu Xun had no confidence in these soldiers, and he still felt that he would use gold, silver and money as the impact force to attack these soldiers to serve him.

With Lu Xun's order, trucks of gold, silver, copper coins, etc. were quickly pulled over, without a box load or a slight cover.

Just like this, a car of cars were transported over with golden light and silver light.

The soldiers of the Chu army were quite calm. After all, a large part of the gold and silver were transported by them personally. However, the soldiers of Yan State were not so calm, and countless people's eyes were green.

"Our Chu State Koujun is not Gongsun Kang of Yan State. He is clear in rewards and punishments, generous and generous. He will never treat his soldiers unfairly. Here is a little gold and silver. After capturing the city of Sanhan and plundering their land, population, and women, I will report to the king to leave a big family business for you." Lu Xun took a few steps forward, held the hilt of the Chu sword at his waist with his left hand, and said loudly.

Lu Xun is a kingly person. He usually does not kill Han people. Even if he orders to plunder rich families, he will stop at the right time. Lu Xun was originally a gentry, so he certainly did not hate the rich. He just didn't have enough supplies and could not entrust the troops.

However, the disposal of foreign tribes was currently influenced by Kou Feng, and most of them were mainly to destroy the roots. Now, in order to rule the entire North Korea.

Lu Xun could also raise a butcher knife, slaughter a large number of three Korean men, equip these soldiers with women, form a community of interests, and gather the morale of the army in a short period of time, thereby gaining the capital to fight Gongsun Kang.

As soon as Lu Xun finished speaking, the surrendered soldiers from Yan State all started to discuss.

Many soldiers couldn't believe their eyes. They had gold to take as soon as they surrendered? Moreover, Lu Xun also promised to destroy the three Hans to buy their property, women.

What a good thing this is.

In the past, Gongsun Kang was able to lead a large army to pacify some ethnic minorities, but Gongsun Kang practiced the way of benevolence and righteousness, and generally focused on appeasement.

Never, as naked as Lu Xun, he wanted to slaughter the three Han cities to leave women and land.

Most of the soldiers who were employed in the army were suffering. Especially the army of Yan State, they did not have the strong cohesion like the Chu team, and were motivated to fight with Aideko Feng.

And when you meet a beautiful woman with money, you lose your mind and your position changes accordingly.

Therefore, the army of nearly 20,000 people suddenly turned red.

"I am willing to serve the State of Chu and be loyal to the Lord of Chu." I don't know who shouted first.

This sentence spread quickly and finally formed a huge sound. The originally sluggish morale also reached its peak.

"Okay." Lu Xun shouted OK, with a look of joy on his face.

But the soldiers were obviously in a certain kind of fanaticism, and they kept shouting, without any intention of stopping.

Lu Xun frowned a little, as if it was too much.

"Beat the drum." Lu Xun ordered.

"No." The personal soldiers responded to the promise, quickly got off the station and passed the order. After a while, the sound of drums in the camp vibrated.

It covered up the soldiers' shouts and calmed down.

After a while, the drum beat stopped.

"The matter is probably as I said before, there is no falsehood, but one thing should be explained in advance. Before attacking the Three Hans, we must attack Zhenfan and Lintun County first, where there are mostly Han people. There should be no offense, otherwise no matter how many people, I will order all of them to behead them. In addition, after entering the Three Hans, we will let them go when we encounter the Three Hans. If we want to kill them, we will only kill the Three Han people." Lu Xun's voice sounded, not very majestic.

But it makes people feel biting cold. At least these surrendered soldiers from Yan State were very cold.

If the Han people are killed, no matter how many people are killed, even if it is ten thousand or twenty thousand, the surrendered soldiers of Yan State have no doubts.

Because the Chu army is so powerful.

Although the Chu army seems to have divided its troops now, there are not many. However, the two sides have clashed, and these surrendered soldiers in Yan State are very clear that they are not opponents.

Therefore, these surrendered soldiers remembered deeply that the people of the Han Dynasty should not be violated at all. The people of the Three Koreans can be at will.
