Three Kingdoms: Hegemony System

More than ten miles outside Linxiang City, Lu Xun and the others ran all the way, and when they saw that no one was chasing behind them, they were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief and stopped here temporarily.

Zhao Fan, Liu Du and the five major leaders counted their men and horses, and under the light of the torches, the faces of these soldiers were still full of panic.

I thought it was an action with a chance to win, but I didn't expect to be ambushed by the other party.

After more than half an hour, the frightened soldiers finally settled down, and Zhao Fan and the others also walked in front of Lu Xun.

"How many men and horses have you each lost?" Lu Xun's face was very unpleasant.

"I lost more than 500 people, and my lieutenant Chen Ying was also beheaded by the opponent's junior general. Zhao Fan sighed and said.

"I don't have any losses, but Jin Taishou's soldiers and horses, and now there are only more than 7,000 people left. Liu Du's face was better-looking, after all, his men and horses were behind, except for some who were trampled to death when they fled, there were basically no big casualties.

"Our five tribes have nothing to lose either. Shamoke raised his voice and asked Lu Xun, "Envoy, didn't you say that Han Xuan is our internal response? "

Lu Xun said in a deep voice: "Now it seems that either Han Xuan betrayed us and fell to Liu Jue's side. Either he leaked out of the horse's feet, and Liu Jue found out that he was our internal response. "

"Now it seems that it should be the latter type, I just realized just now that I have never seen Han Xuan's figure in the city. Lu Xun frowned tightly, a little annoyed in his heart.

"Han Xuan really hurt us this time, I knew that this was the case, it was better to fight Liu Jue head-on, they only have more than 10,000 troops, and they are definitely not our opponents. Zhao Fan said angrily.

Lu Xun glanced at Zhao Fan, and scolded an idiot in his heart, if the war is just a simple comparison of the number of people, then there is no need to fight, just come up and compare who has more people.

Lu Xun took a deep breath and said: "This time we were yin by Liu Jue, except for Jin Xuan's unfortunate fall into the hands of the enemy, our losses are not too big." In the next few days, we will have a good rest and prepare to take Linxiang City down. "

Zhao Fan hurriedly said: "If we want to attack the city, then our casualties will be very large. "

Lu Xun was very speechless and said, "How can there be no casualties in the battle? If Zhao Taishou is afraid, he can lead the troops back to Guiyang now." "

When Zhao Fan heard this, he immediately laughed dryly and said: "Don't be angry, envoy, I don't mean to retreat, I mean, can we surround but not fight, and trap Liu Jue and them to death in the city." "

Liu Du couldn't help it, and said: "Zhao Taishou, Linxiang is a county magistrate, and the food hoarded in it is enough for Liu Jue and them to eat for several months. What we have to do now is to annihilate Liu Jue's army as soon as possible, and then move the army north, so as to attack Wu Hou's side on both sides, dragging it down will only make us more passive. "

Lu Xun breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Liu Taishou is right, we can't delay it now, at the latest in a month, we must break through Linxiang and capture Liu Jue and others." "

Lu Xun saw the situation very clearly, although there were 80,000 troops on his side, but in fact they were just a group of rabble, if Linxiang City could not be attacked for a long time, then this army would inevitably have a change.

Zhao Fan said again: "Now that Jin Xuan doesn't know his life and death, what about those soldiers and horses under him?"

Lu Xun opened his mouth and said: "For the time being, please ask Zhao and Liu to take charge of each part, if Jin Xuan is still alive, as long as Linxiang is broken, we can still rescue him." "

"Absolutely. Liu Du nodded lightly.

Zhao Fan on the side showed a little joy, it was best that Jin Xuan was dead, so that he could swallow his soldiers and horses.

"Okay, let's retreat a few dozen miles for the time being, and when the repair is completed, let's attack Linxiang City again." This was just a minor setback, and we still have the advantage now. Lu Xun boosted everyone's morale.

"Yes! This time we were fooled, and when we reorganize our army and fight again, Liu Jue will definitely not be our opponent. Liu Du also nodded again and again.

"Emissary, the next time you attack the city, you can make us the vanguard. Shamoke actively asked for battle, usually he was unscrupulous in the Wuxi area, and rarely was beaten like just now, and his heart was naturally unhappy.

"Of course it's no problem!" Lu Xun smiled, I'm still afraid that you won't go.

Immediately, the armies of all roads were repaired and prepared to retreat a few dozen miles, planning to attack Linxiang in a few days.

In Linxiang City, the soldiers were cleaning up the corpses in the city, and tonight's ambush was a complete victory, and the morale of the whole army was high.

At this time, Liu Jue was in the Taishou Mansion, with a thick smile on his face, and it was Jin Xuan who knelt in front of him.

"Jin Taishou, you and I meet for the first time, don't come to harm!" Liu Jue said with a smile.

"Childe, the lower official knows that he is wrong, and please spare my life!" Jin Xuan lay on the ground, sobbing and flowing, where is the breeze before?

"Spare your life?"

Liu Jue laughed and said: "Your ancestor Jin Riyan is a Hun and is deeply trusted by Emperor Xiaowu, and your Jin family is favored by the Han family, but now he colludes with Jiangdong Sun Quan and is even with Wuxi barbarians, do you think you should die?"

Jin Xuan trembled and said: "Xiaguan was blinded by lard for a while, and at that time, 50,000 barbarian soldiers surrounded Linyuan, and Xiaguan was also forced to do so." "

Liu Jue smiled disdainfully: "You are also a county guard, with more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and Linyuan has not been broken, and only 50,000 barbarian soldiers scare you like this?"

Jin Xuan's face was full of shame, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Liu Jue continued: "I'm not afraid to tell you, you plus Han Xuan, although there are nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses, but in my eyes, they are all local chickens and dogs, and I can easily defeat you, otherwise why do you think I only brought 15,000 soldiers and horses over?"

Jin Xuan's eyes widened, and his face was full of surprise.

"I'm not afraid to tell you that I have long seen your tricks clearly. "

Liu Jue smiled slightly and said: "You and Zhao Fan and Liu Du met in Hanshou and made it look like they were going north, in fact, it was just to attract the troops of Xiangyang and make them dare not cross the river to the south, and then you and those 50,000 barbarians came over to deal with me, is there anything wrong with what I said?"

"Gong ...... Childe is really clever. Jin Xuan's voice was trembling, he didn't expect that his plan had already been guessed by Liu Jue, and he was proud of himself before.

Liu Jue laughed and said, "I can't talk about god-level calculations, it's just that I'm calm, so I can see through your plan." In addition, let me tell you one more thing, I have already sent someone to send a message to Wen Ping, asking him to cross the river to the south immediately, it is estimated that Linyuan City has been taken by Wen Ping. "

"What...... What!"

Jin Xuan was suddenly shocked, he was so confident before, but he didn't even know that his old nest was taken to someone, and his own family was also arrested!

"It's all over!" Jin Xuan suddenly felt like a mourner, his eyes were dark, and he almost fainted to the ground.

Seeing Jin Xuan's appearance, Liu Jue said happily: "Don't worry too much, in a few days, Zhao Fan and Liu Du will also come to reunite with you." "

"Come, take this person down, and keep him under strict guard. "

"Wow!" The soldiers on the left and right stepped forward one after another, dragging the limp Jin Xuan straight out of the door.
