Chapter 406: Powering the Twelve Gods of Jiangnan (Part 2)

Lu Shinang, a member of the Xianju family, was in his forties at the time. The Song Dynasty only knew that he was the privy envoy of the East Hall appointed by Fang La, but they did not know that he had another identity, that is, he was one of the four great guardian Dharma kings under Ming Zun.

one.

Fang La asked him to guard Runzhou, which is the key to the south of the Yangtze River. He was entrusted with it, which shows his trust.

Lu Shinang was also a man of some knowledge, and often told people: "Although the Yangtze River is a natural danger, it is also a constraint. If you blindly block the river and defend it, no matter how good you are, you can only be like Sun Quan. Even Sun Quan often wants to attack Yangzhou and Hefei.

?I just hate that guy's life is miserable. He met Chen Deng in Yangzhou and Zhang Liao in Hefei. His ambition was turned into a painting cake, but he had no choice but to achieve other people's achievements."

As he said this, he smiled confidently: "I am not like that fellow. Now, before the soldiers of the Song Dynasty arrive, I have taken Yangzhou and swept across the Huaihe River. When he comes to suppress me, I will divide my troops into two groups and follow him all the way in the Huaihe River.

They entangled on the right, fought all the way from Huaizuo to Shandong, recruited and surrendered the cowardly group from Liangshan, and marched straight to Bianliang. This will be the great cause of the Holy Gong."

His remarks, if there were a wise man like Wu Yong under his command, they might be able to discuss them, but unfortunately there were only warriors like the Twelve Gods. All they could hear was nodding their heads and falling to the ground. Lu Shinang became more and more proud, and immediately ordered his troops.

With 20,000 people, he took eight commanders with him and went to Yangzhou with great momentum.

When Xu Churen, the magistrate of Yangzhou, learned of this, he sent the state's military commander to lead troops to defend the river bank and prevent the Confederate army from landing. The military commander left without saying goodbye. Xu Churen had no choice but to bring his own soldiers and horses to meet the enemy.

The strong bows and crossbows made it difficult for his warship to dock. Unexpectedly, Lu Shinang separated a group of troops and landed while the ship sailed into the canal. They attacked from both sides and defeated Xu Churen. His way back to the city was blocked again, so he had to go west.

Running away.

Lu Shinang sent two commanders to pursue him to prevent him from taking a detour into the city, and then raised his troops to attack the city. However, Yangzhou is a large city with high and thick walls and many weapons. Several people in the city were led by government officials.

The local soldiers recruited strong people and held on to the death.

Lu Shinan made a brief attack, and rolling logs and rocks fell down like raindrops on the city. He was reluctant to lose his troops and horses, so he immediately withdrew his troops and stopped attacking. In a blink of an eye, he came up with a plan.

He ordered the three commanders to each lead 2,000 troops to block the east, west, and north gates. The main force of the lords stayed at the south gate, and slowly built siege equipment under the city. As a deterrent, they also fired countless letters of persuasion to surrender into the city, saying that it was within a time limit.

If you don't open the door and surrender in three days, the city will be broken and the whole city will be slaughtered.

When he thought about it, there were no famous generals like Chen Deng or Zhang Liao in this city. Although the city walls were high, how could they be higher than the purpose of survival? Although there were many equipment, how could they be higher than distracting thoughts?

If we really send troops to attack the city, the people inside will not be distracted but will unite to resist the enemy. If they are surrounded without attacking and intimidated, the people in the city will be in chaos. When the time comes, they will probably surrender.

Just when they were feeling complacent, the more than a thousand soldiers and horses who were chasing Xu Churen came back from defeat, only to find that the Song Army brigade had arrived and the two commanders had been defeated.

Lu Shinang was surprised at first, and then asked carefully, and found out that there were only more than 3,000 people. He felt relieved immediately, waved his hand, and said proudly: "What a fuss, if the imperial court sends troops, even the vanguard will need more than 10,000 people, just two or three

Thousands of people, presumably from nearby military states, have come to help, so when I take the opportunity to kill him, it will save trouble later."

At that time, he dispatched five thousand troops and ordered "Thunderbolt God" Zhang Jinren and "Six Ding God" Xu Tong as generals to go west to defend against the enemy. Little did he know that Lao Cao had already divided his troops and advanced by separate routes. These five thousand people

If you stupidly follow the road to meet him, you are destined to be lonely.

The shadow of the sun moved to the west, and in a blink of an eye it was time to apply for a license.

There was a commander under Lu Shinang, known as "Youyi God" Pan Wende, who was ordered to command two thousand troops and block the north gate of Yangzhou.

He knew that there were no elite soldiers in the city, and he was not afraid of the defenders breaking through, so he only took 500 people with him. They stood in a few rows in a scattered manner just a stone's throw away from the city wall, putting on some ferocious faces, and wanted to point at the city wall and yell.

.

The remaining 1,500 people were sent to cut down trees and set up camp in the woods, forming a posture of long siege. This was also a strategy assigned by Lu Shinang in advance, so as to keep the defenders in panic all day long.

The local soldiers on the city, who had a strong population, were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their hands and feet were weak. At this moment, a young man suddenly opened his eyes wide, pointed at the woods in the distance and shouted: "Ah, come out over there.

Yes, but are they officers and soldiers?"

After hearing this, everyone perked up and stretched their necks to look. They saw countless woodcutters shouting and escaping from the forest in a swarm, followed by a group of officers and soldiers chasing after them, slashing and killing.

There were two big black men at the head. One was as thick as a bear, stripped naked, wielding a double axe, and swept forward like a whirlwind.

The other one is wearing a black helmet and a black face, riding a black horse, wielding two iron maces, and just smashing them around.

These two black men, one on horseback and the other on foot, marched hand in hand, like a black tiger monster with a black bear spirit next to it. Blood and flesh flew everywhere wherever they passed, creating two bloody alleys.

However, Xu Churen followed Cao Cao's plan and led Li Kui and Niu Gao, leading a thousand men and horses to rush into the city. He was a practical official. He had only served as magistrate here for more than half a year, but he was familiar with the roads in and outside the city. He led

Everyone came from the small road and saw countless thieves cutting wood in the forest. They immediately sent out their troops to cover up and kill them. The thieves were unprepared and were not as brave as Li Kui and Niu Gao. They were immediately defeated and defeated.

"Youyi God" Pan Wende was shocked and quickly led 500 of his men to resist.

It's a pity that these people lined up outside the city gate, but it was just a show. The formation was already sloppy. Now they turned around and ran, the formation became more and more scattered. They ran in a chaotic manner, neither horizontally nor vertically.

.

Pan Wen was horrified when he saw the defeated soldiers coming towards him, and shouted repeatedly: "Don't run around, stand your ground quickly, and come with me to kill the enemy!"

However, those thieves had been killed by Li Kui Niugao, and they were just running for their lives. Even if they chopped off their heads with a big axe, and smashed the Tianling with a mace, they never expected to see a single one of them turn back, so he let Pan Wen

He screamed till his throat was broken, but no one paid attention, and Biao Biao rushed into his own formation, completely knocking the formation apart.

Li Kui and Niu Gao took advantage of the situation and led their troops in. Pan Wende felt his head buzzing and thought to himself: In this situation, there is no doubt that we will lose. The only way is for me to kill those two black men with my own skills.

, with one thing going down and the other going up, maybe it can turn the tide.

Having made up his mind, he mounted his horse and swung his sword to attack Li Kui, shouting: "'Youyi God' Pan Wende is here, who dares to fight with me!" He slashed with his sword with all his strength.

Li Kui saw that he was coming very fiercely, so he put his axes in his left hand, stepped aside slightly to avoid the horse's head, grabbed the luan belt around his waist, and shouted: "Grandpa, get off here!"

Pan Wende cut the air with his sword, and then his waist tightened, and he left the saddle like a cloud in the mist. He was slammed to the ground by Li Kui. He couldn't take a breath and rolled his eyes.

Li Kui laughed loudly, put his foot on his chest, took the ax in his right hand, and with one blow he split the good Liuyang leader into two parts and Sanyang Kaitai, just like a gourd turned into two ladles.

, dirty blood and brain matter flowed all over the floor.

At this time, Xu Churen of Zhizhou came up with a bamboo pole, a spear, and a big donkey, panting. When he saw Li Kui beheading the opponent's general, he was overjoyed and shouted loudly: "The thief general is dead, and the one who surrenders will not be killed!"

It was rare for Li Kui to go on a killing spree and he was so happy that he couldn't help but become anxious when he heard these words. He swung the donkey with a big mallet, and the leader of the platoon only focused on killing people, shouting like thunder: "A good man bleeds but not sheds tears. You are a good man."

Don’t surrender.”

Hearing his words, the soldiers and civilians on the city were so shocked that they bit their fingers and tongues and trembled: "Grandpa, this black man is so murderous! I don't know if it was the Heavenly Killer who came to earth or the reincarnation of King Shura.

If you enter the city, you must not throw a bow with him, otherwise the big ax coming to attack you will not be a joke."

Those thieves were not stupid. Who would act like a hero and be killed by him? They all knelt down on the battlefield and shouted: "Young men have surrendered. Please forgive me, grandpa."

Li Kui frowned and glanced at the crossbow, but when he saw that the place was full of thieves, no one was higher than his elder brother Wu, he was so angry that he threw the ax fiercely and said angrily: "Sheng Gong Fangla is such a famous person, how can I accept you guys?"

Doing things that are greedy and fearful of death."

When the soldiers and civilians on the city saw that the dust had settled, people in several prefectural offices were overjoyed and ordered people to open the city gates to welcome the magistrate into the city.

Xu Zhizhou ordered the prisoners to be tied into a string with long ropes and escorted them all into the city. One of his soldiers led Li Kui's horse. Li Kui was not satisfied with killing him. He was so unhappy that he was so angry that he didn't wear any clothes, so he got on the horse naked.

Braving the east wind in February, we entered Yangzhou with great swagger.

The people of Yangzhou were living bravely today. Suddenly they heard that the defeated Zhizhou came back and brought two extraordinary tiger generals with them. They killed the thieves at the north gate to death.

They came to see the victorious soldiers and horses entering the city, and were about to burst into cheers when they saw Li Kui with a tigerish face, sitting high on his horse, without a hair on his back, and the club hanging from the side of the saddle. It was shocking. For a while, the men were silent and the women were crying, needless to say.

Not long after, Lu Shinang learned that the North Gate was defeated, that the commander Pan Wen was dead, and that Xu Churen led his fierce generals into the city. His face changed with anger, and he knew that his plan to force surrender was self-defeating.

He did not expect that Xu Churen only led a thousand men and killed Pan Wende in a great defeat. He thought that he had defeated the Giant Spirit God, and Taibai God's officers and soldiers were among them, so he sent people to chase the "Thunderbolt God" Zhang Jinren.

, "Six Ding God" Xu Tong's five thousand soldiers and horses ordered the troops to step up the construction of siege equipment in order to take Yangzhou by force.

Lu Shinang was busy dispatching troops and generals, but he never expected that behind a hill not far from his camp, Lao Cao and more than 2,000 people were already quietly lurking here.

After a night of silence, the sky became brighter the next day. Lu Shinang ordered the troops to prepare war food and went out after eating well. He led more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to the city. He looked at the city coldly for a few times and then gave the order.

Said: "Attack the city!"

There are different religions: The Heavenly Killing Star is unleashing its murderous power, and the Black Tiger General is showing off his tiger power. Who else is there after shouting loudly? The thieves kneel down and beg for their lives.
