While people were sitting at home, the Qin army came from the sky.

Lu Wen didn't think he was very lucky, even if Yang Ming, the general of the Qin Army, was going to let him serve as the single father. Especially after catching Yang Ming's sight, Lu Wen noticed a trace of it. It seems to be a malicious feeling.

It may not be that simple for Yang Ming to let him serve as the single father order.

What is the reason? Lu Wen recalled his own experience, trying to find out if there was any connection with people like Yang Ming.

The Lu family is said to come from the Jiang Shang lineage, and the lineage can be pushed back even further, even to the period of Emperor Yan, but that was only in the past. Now, Lu Wen's family can barely establish a family business in Shanfu, a small town. He won't be reduced to the head of Guizhou, but his family background is only average. It can only be said that he can afford to study and does not have to work personally.

Lu Wen also traveled to the three kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Wei in his early years. He cherished the dream of every young man and thought about reviving his family. Unfortunately, the opportunity was not so easy to come by. After ten years of wasting, all he could do was to let himself go. The poor family situation made matters worse, and he couldn't make anything. Frustrated, Lu Wen returned to his single father to run the family business, but he never thought that when Qin Jun came, he actually made a lot of money. An official position.

Is this a good thing? Of course it's a good thing, but it doesn't seem to be a good thing. The Qin army is here, but they can still leave, but the people of the Lu family can't leave.

Especially since this happiness came so quickly, Lu Wen always felt that there was some trap in it.

"Do you have any other opinions?" Yang Ming saw Lu Wen's hesitant expression, and his expression became a bit colder.

"No, no." Lu Wen replied quickly. In the Qin army's camp, he really didn't have that much confidence and courage, especially when Shanfu City had been occupied by the Qin army. You know, now There are dozens of people in the Lu family, but they are all under the attack of the Qin army.

The information about the Lu family in Yang Ming's memory is not only the little information about the Lu family in his memory, but also the information from Luowang's investigation. According to Luowang's information, the Lu family comes from a farm family, and was once a farmer. It has a good status, but after several changes in the farm family, the Tian family became the leader, while the main line of the Lu family withered, and only a few weak branches remained, never to be seen again. Prominence in those days.

If Yang Ming wants to deal with the farmer's family in the future, it may be a little troublesome, but if he wants to deal with the farmer's Tian family, it is still possible, and the Lu family alone is a good weapon.

Moreover, among Lu Wen's several descendants, there are still some outstanding talents, such as the eldest son Lu Ze and the newborn daughter Lu Esu, both of whom have been influential figures in the world for forty or three decades.

If Yang Ming had not passed through Shanfu City, he might not have invested too much energy in the Lu family, but now that they are all here, Yang Ming naturally wants to bring the Lu family into the family. Under his command, no matter what Yang Ming gets in the end, he will not lose money.

After sending away the former Shan Fu Ling and the current Shan Fu Ling, Yang Ming devoted his energy to military affairs.

As the saying goes, a big tree attracts wind. Yang Ming's reputation coupled with the invasion of 100,000 Qin troops into Chu State is not a small matter for the Chu State. The Chu army that Yang Ming has to face must be elite.

Moreover, Shanfu had already captured Shanfu, so the Qin army naturally had to choose its next target in order to contain Chu's military strength. This was a strategy that the Qin army had already decided before leaving Qin.

Yang Ming looked at the map on the desk and turned his attention to the Sishui River Basin east of Shan's father. Going down the Sishui River, the names of several cities appeared in Yang Ming's sight: Peixian County and Pengcheng. Both are very famous cities, Peixian because of the people there, and Pengcheng because of the stories there.

"Guard the army, report to the front line." While Yang Ming was thinking, Tu Sui walked into the tent holding a bamboo slip.

"Which army is the Chu army coming from Shouchun?" Yang Ming asked. The military report at this time could only be about the Chu army's movements.

"Looking at its banner, it is a force with the Chu State's Thunder Leopard Legion as the core, with a strength of about 50,000. It is stationed in Pengcheng. Together with the local defenders of Pengcheng, the strength of the Chu army should be 70,000 to 80,000. It's just that except for Lei Bao, Apart from the Leopard Legion, the other soldiers and horses do not look like the elite of the Chu army, and there are even savages from the land of Wu and Yue." Tu Suihui reported.

"Thunder Leopard Legion is a good name." Yang Ming said to himself.

Yang Ming is also no stranger to this army. The Chu army has never been the most elite among the Seven Kingdoms, but this does not mean that the Chu army is weak.

After all, the Chu State has a vast territory and abundant resources. After being beaten several times by the Wei soldiers and the Qin army, it also learned to concentrate its material and manpower to build an elite army, and the Tenglong Army, the Shadow Tiger Army, and the Thunder Leopard Army, plus the members of several major families The combat prowess of clan soldiers is also extraordinary.

"With such a resounding name, I imagine that his combat power must be extraordinary. It seems that the reputation of the guards has become so great that the Chu State has no choice but to gather such a large number of troops to prepare for it." Tu Sui said with a hint of flattery.

"It depends on whether the Chu army has the courage, but they probably don't have the courage. As far as I know, among the elite groups of the Chu State, the Thunder Leopard Army is the strongest and the best at defending. The purpose of transferring these troops to Pengcheng is to defend Pengcheng to the end, continue to stalemate with us, and then look for opportunities to win from the Wei army." Yang Mingdao.

"There are also smart people in Chu State. This arrangement is aimed at people's hearts."

"What do the guards mean by this?" Tu Sui wondered. He was not the captain of the Qin Kingdom who would be ordered by the emperor to go to Baiyue in the future. He was just the leader of the Yulin Guards in the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army. He is only a mid-level general, and the information he possesses is extremely limited. Naturally, his knowledge and vision have not yet reached a very high level.

"We have come all the way. After capturing the city, it is inconvenient for us to defend it except to hand it over to Wei. In the eyes of normal people, we will not attack the city all the way. Therefore, the Chu army only needs to send enough It’s enough to hold us back with their own strength, their real opponent is Wei.” Yang Mingdao.

"But since we came to join forces with the Wei army, can Chu State be sure that we will not help the Wei army?" Tu Sui asked confused.

"Of course they can be sure that the king used the land of the old Song Dynasty to lure the Wei State to cooperate with us, thereby eliminating the possibility of Chu and Wei cooperating again. As long as the Chu State does not prevent us from achieving this goal, why should we use the blood and lives of our own soldiers to help Wei Guo attacked the city." Yang Mingdao.

"Then how can the Chu State help us achieve this goal?" Tu Sui asked, knowing that Yang Ming wanted to give him some advice.

"Of course I will beat the Wei army to death and have an irreconcilable mortal feud with the Wei state." Yang Ming said.

"Beat Wei Jun to death?" Tu Sui was slightly startled, and then he almost laughed out loud.

"If I guessed correctly, the other two elite legions of the Chu State, namely the Longteng Legion and the Shadow Tiger Legion, which are best at attacking, must have been led by Xiang Yan to Suiyang." Yang Ming can already imagine the presence of Wei Jun. Chu Jun's hand was about to be bruised and bloody.

"Gujun, now that we know the Chu army's plan, how should we choose?" Tu Sui asked.

"What do you think?"

"Follow the Chu army's wishes? We won't suffer anyway." Tu Sui asked tentatively.

"Although this is a good choice, it is too petty. We are the Qin Army, and we will not do things where an upright army deceives our allies." Yang Ming said with a smile.

Peixian must be captured, and Pengcheng must be captured as much as possible, although there is a high probability that it will not be captured.

Especially this may not be important to Qin, but it is very important to Chu.

Not to mention anything else, now that the young King of Chu has just ascended the throne, the ruling power that Ling Yin Liyuan obtained through dishonorable means is not very stable. If there is another big defeat, the internal situation of Chu State will inevitably become even more bizarre, and civil strife will begin. Inevitable.

Yang Ming clearly remembered that in the original trajectory, that is, seven or eight years later, a Chu prince would attack and kill Li Yuan and seize the throne. That man's name was Fu Chu.

Civil strife in a country is an opportunity for the enemy. If the civil strife can be triggered in advance, Qin will have more room to play, and it may be much easier to destroy Chu by then.

"The guards mean to attack Pei County and Pengcheng?" Tu Sui asked in surprise.

Is it really necessary to do things that are not very good? Tu Sui was confused. He obviously couldn't see something called the general trend. All he saw was the pros and cons in front of him.

"Attack, we have come, why not attack?" Yang Ming said.

The capable man in Chu State had a good idea and could be said to have insight into people's hearts. Unfortunately, what he met was Yang Ming, an unreasonable Yang Ming.

After Yang Ming left a Qin army to garrison Shanfu, he directly led the army down the Surabaya River, heading all the way towards Peixian and Fengcheng.

The Chu army's defense along this route was not tight. In other words, they focused their defense on Pengcheng, intentionally abandoning the surrounding cities to draw the Qin army's front line, and then used the river navy to threaten the Qin army. In the rear, the goal of holding back the Qin army was finally achieved.

Pei County.

As soon as the young man in red robe ran home in a panic, he was greeted by a burst of yelling: "You haven't been in a straight line all day long. What's wrong? Are you burning your tail?"

"Dad, hurry up and go to the city to avoid trouble. The Qin army is coming to kill you." The young man in red looked at his father who walked out of the room with a sad face and said.

"What did you say?" Sure enough, as the young man in red spoke, the old father no longer cared about scolding his unfulfilled son Liu Ji.

"I heard from my boss that the Qin army captured Shanfu and came all the way to Peixian County, so I hurriedly came back to report the news." Liu Jidao, who likes luxury and vanity, and always wears red robes.

"That's what the farmer said?" Father Liu said in shock. If the credibility of his son Liu Ji's words was questionable, then Father Liu would have to believe what Liu Ji said.
