The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire Chapter 334: Battle of Chuyue 2

Jiujiang County, the prefecture of Panyang City.

At this moment, most of the defenders in the city have already left the city and rushed to Pengdi, which is 1oo miles away from Panyang, where they formed a resistance army with the armies of other counties, with a total of 10,000 people. The first line of defense against the Chu army going south.

This time the Chu army went south, not directly crossing the Yangtze River south to Danyang, Wu County. This is unrealistic.

Let’s not say whether Wu Jun has so many ferry crossings for Chu Jun to board 6, just say that Wu Jun, as the hinterland of Yue State, has heavy troops.

In addition, the people in the county are devoted to the country of Yue, which has a lot of eyes and ears here, plus some suitable ferry crossings, there are some soldiers and horses, and some obstacles are set up, and they want to board 6 here. It's as difficult as reaching the sky.

On the contrary, it is different in Lujiang County.

Since ancient times, Lujiang County has been the place where the land of Wuyue and the land of Chu competed for supremacy. It has been a battlefield for many years.

Naturally, in this place, the people of Wu Yue and the people of Chu both infiltrate and live together, making it difficult to distinguish each other.

However, most of the time, Chu has the advantage. Many places in Lujiang County, more than two-thirds, exist as Chu's territory.

So, this is also the reason why Chu's resistance against the rebel forces here before can persist for so long.

If it hadn’t been for the rebels to suddenly go south and concentrate all their forces to the south of the Yangtze River, suddenly the rebel forces in Lujiang County had swelled several times, and the defenders of the Chu Kingdom, which had been struggling to support, would have been extinguished at once, and Lujiang would also Become under the rule of the rebels.

However, now the Chu State's army is going south, 20,000 troops crossed the Yangtze River, and once again stepped into the homeland of Chu State on the Lujiang River. In contrast, the Vietnamese army was retreating steadily and struggling to support it.

Suddenly this kind of good news made the people of Chu state excited, and many undercurrents surged under Lujiang County.

For example, in Panyang City today.

The defenders in the city originally numbered as high as 50,000, all have been transferred to the front line by the local defenders of Vietnam, just around Pendi. Taking advantage of the mountainous situation there, as well as the Lujiang River's main communication link between counties and counties, they guarded the pass here and blocked the footsteps of the Chu army.

After this round of adjustments, there are only 3,000 defenders left in the city. They can barely maintain law and order in the city and deter the towns and villages within 30 miles outside the city.

However, the majesty maintained by such a strength, after all, could not discourage most people. On the contrary, it made them see through the weakness of the Vietnamese army even more, and their minds couldn't help rolling even more.

In the middle of the night, Panyang City is now facing war, and a curfew has already been imposed. A group of armored soldiers on the street patrolled the surroundings in an orderly manner, staggering each other from time to time, and patrolling back and forth, quite closely.

In the house next to the street, the lights have already been extinguished, and no one can be seen in the dark.

However, in this darkness, bright eyes are closely watching the Vietnamese soldiers on the streets outside, with murderous intent in their eyes.

Take a closer look. There are several or dozens of pairs of eyes staring at the army on the street in the rooms of the whole street, and there is also a faint flash of sword light in the room, shining in the moonlight. Below, tick transparent and bright.

Shoo---squeak.

Suddenly this sharp and loud sound resounded in the city. This sound seemed to be a certain signal. In an instant, it instantly ignited the originally silent city and turned it into a noisy bazaar.

Boom, boom, crackle!

Countless cluttered sounds sounded, but furniture was hit in the room, and the door broke open.

"Kill! Kill all these Yue country dogs, kill all these rebels, and welcome back to the king!"

"Kill! Kill these out-of-town mud legs and regain the dignity of our people in Lujiang!"

I saw countless passionate voices sounding, and there was a burst in an instant, countless people responded, resounding throughout the city.

So, countless soldiers, either with hatred or with other purposes, rushed out of the room with a hula, and rushed over with a hideous face in the surprised faces of the soldiers outside.

Spoof a few times.

That was the dull sound that a sword pierced into the body, the sharp weapon intersected with flesh and blood, and it sounded continuously at this moment.

Shooting.

In the whole city, on the streets, in the rooms, countless torches were suddenly lit, and the transparent firelight illuminates the whole city brightly like daylight.

Countless sharp metal collisions, or roaring screams, or other messy sounds filled the entire city.

On the street, there were originally sparse figures and only some soldiers patrolling. Now it is full of people. Countless people are rushing out of the room, making the already crowded street even more congested.

The seventh year of Emperor Yuan, August.

It has been one month since the Chu army went south, and they fought with the defenders of Pengdi in Lujiang County of Vietnam.

The step of the 10,000 army was blocked, which caused the Chu army's original sharp and unstoppable offensive to stagnate and some decline.

However, afterwards, the remaining 30 million Chu army crossed the river behind Panpengdi, which is to the north of Panyang City. They pressed Panyang City~IndoMTL.com~ for a while, Panyang City was panicked, and inside the city The more the guards were guarded, an undercurrent surged through the city.

Three days later, when the 30th Wan Chu Army had already reached 30 miles north of Panyang City, there was a mutiny in the city at night.

Many local clans in Lujiang County, or the aristocrats who were attacked, united one after another, agitated many people to form a rebel army, anyway, to resist the brutal rule of Vietnam.

I also drove and killed the defenders in the city that night, regained control of Panyang City, and sent envoys overnight to the Chu army camp, surrendered to the commander of the Chu army, and hoped that Mr. Chu would forgive them. The guilt of the city's ineffectiveness.

The Chu army was overjoyed after receiving the news. Early the next morning, they dispatched three thousand war horses and hurried to Panyang City to take over the city defense. By the way, they tested whether the surrender matter was true.

Mid August.

Panyang City has completely fallen into the hands of the 30 Wan Chu Army. The 10 Wan Yue Army in Pengdi has completely fallen into the urn, facing the threat of the 30 Wan Chu Army and the 20 Wan Chu Army on the opposite side. The time seems to die at any time.

At the end of the last ten days, 10 thousand Vietnamese troops were destroyed by a joint attack by the Chu army, slashed to 50,000 ranks, and the rest fled more than 20,000 people and hid in the mountains. After a few months, there were very few survivors. The remaining 30,000 people surrendered and were ordered to become slaves by the King of Chu. They all rushed to Jiangling and other places to rebuild the ancestral tombs for Chu. Under the heavy labor, in the end, there are no more than a hundred people alive.

Early September.

At the time of the autumn harvest, there are not many farmers harvesting on the fields that are already full of rice, but the great fertile fields are deserted, and the millets are rotten in the fields. I don't know how many farmers who live on the fields are heartbroken. .

At the same time, 50 million Chu army soldiers crushed the Wu County of Yue State, and the Yue State was in turmoil, and there was already a fear of subjugation.
