Chapter 667: Continuous Battles and Successful Victories
"However, Hu Chong in Lin County is also a little troublesome. I hope he will be wiser and let himself out of the city."
Wu young man shook his head lightly, and after pondering for a while, he shook his head, let the soldiers go down, lay down again, and continued to sleep.
It's important to recharge your batteries.
Wu Nian slept very soundly. He didn't get up until the rooster crowed the next morning. After washing up, he went to the outhouse and had breakfast.
Although the leading troops are outside now, this is a city after all, with abundant food. The soldiers still prepared a sumptuous breakfast.
There are braised pork, boiled eggs, a duck, half a roast lamb and some vegetables.
Wu Nian finished eating like a storm, walked out of the gate, and was about to take a walk to eat. The soldiers came in from outside with Chen Zhong.
Wu Nian's eyes lit up and he asked, "Mr. Chen. How do you answer Hu Chong?"
Chen Zhong was tired and looked a little haggard. He bowed his hands and said in salute: "Report to the general. That Hu Chong is a madman. He said it was a human head, so he asked the general to go get it himself."
Wu Nian squinted his eyes and felt a little emotional. No matter what, Cao Ting died in the rebellion.
Wu Chongguang was a loyal minister.
I didn't expect that this Hu Chong was also a loyal minister. Although the Chu State was dead, there were still three catties of iron. It's a pity, it's a pity.
"I understand. Sir, you have worked hard all the way. Go down and rest." Wu Nian nodded and waved.
"Yes." Chen Zhong was just a civil servant and did not dare to say more. He turned around and left with fists in his hands.
After Wu Nian stood for a while, he stepped forward and continued walking to eat. After a while, Wu Nian heard the sound of hurried footsteps. He looked back and saw Zhang Jin and Liu Wu each wearing battle jackets and holding on to the hilts of knives at their waists.
, came over.
Wu Nian turned around and stood still, smiling and looking at the two of them.
"General."
The two of them stood still, bent down and cupped their fists towards Wu Nian.
"Brothers, come here together, what can I do?" Wu Nian put his hands behind his back. Although he was asking, his tone was firm, and he guessed the purpose of the two of them.
"General. That Hu Chong is so arrogant. Please allow us to lead thousands of elite troops and go south to attack Lin County. Cut off Hu Chong's head and present it to the general."
Zhang Jin showed an angry face and said decisively.
"That's right. Little Hu Chong doesn't need the general to take action. We will be even." Liu Wu nodded heavily and clasped his fists.
Feng Chong defeated Wang Zhongbi. This news stimulated the two of them a little. That bastard must be very proud now.
They also wanted to kill Hu Chong so that they could gain face.
"I know what you are thinking. But there is no need for it." Wu Nian waved his hand with a smile, turned his head to look, and walked to sit on the bench in the corridor next to him.
Zhang Jin and Liu Wu were confused when they heard this. They followed him from left to right and sat opposite Wu Nian.
"General, please give me your instructions." Zhang Jin cupped his fists and saluted.
"This Hu Chong is a loyal minister. He was originally a trouble. But now I have killed Cao Ting and Feng Chong has defeated Wang Zhongbi. His internal and external reinforcements have been cut off. Hu Chong is determined to die, but what about the others? I don't think so.
I would be willing to die with him."
"There is no need for a large army to conquer him. Just wait and see for a few days. I think someone will kill Hu Chong soon and cut off his head and give it to me."
Wu Nian had a look of confidence on his face and said with a smile.
Let’s not talk about the generals. Let’s talk about the soldiers who were exploited by Wang Zhongbi. Are they willing to follow Hu Chong and serve the Chu country?
Wu Nian didn't believe it.
"This!!!" Zhang Jin and Liu Wu looked at each other and saw the word "bad luck" in each other's eyes.
Wu Nian's analysis seemed to the two of them very reasonable. But on the other hand, there was no need for them to appear. What a pity, what a pity.
"Don't be discouraged. Let's all go down and rest. After we kill Hu Chong, there will be another battle with Wang Zhongbi. After we capture the Nanhai Mansion, there may be another battle with the Mengyuan people. Don't care about Hu Chong's head. He has made many achievements.
Chance."
Seeing the two of them dejected, Wu Nian couldn't help but smile and said.
"Yes." Zhang Jin and Liu Wu suddenly trembled and became energetic. They responded loudly, then stood up and said goodbye to Wu Nian, turned around and left.
"Other than its large size, Chu State has no other advantages. Why should people like Wang Zhongbi, Xiong Wuwo and others defeat me?" Wu Nian looked at Zhang Jin and Liu Wu's back as he left. He was very proud of his brother.
He sneered and said.
............
late at night.
Lin County Town, in the mansion occupied by Hu Chong. Hu Chong tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
"Hey." Hu Chong sighed and sat up cross-legged. He knew that his death was not far away. Only a general with high prestige can lead his soldiers to die and survive.
But he doesn't have such prestige.
Dragging everyone to death will result in backlash.
Wu Nian also saw this clearly, so he didn't attack.
"Although Cao Ting and I have become close to Wang Zhongbi during these days, in our hearts we deeply disapprove of Wang Zhongbi. This money-grubbing guy can't compare to a finger of General Xiong."
"If General Xiong were here, how could our army's fighting spirit be so fragile? Even if we lose, we won't lose so ugly."
Hu Chong clenched his fists tightly, a scowl appeared on his face, and then he let out a long sigh, and his scowl turned into desolation.
"kill!!!!!!"
"Ahhhh!!!"
At this moment, there was a loud roar of killing outside. Then, the screams could not be heard. After a while, a soldier broke in from the outside and reported in panic: "General, someone is causing trouble and they are coming in."
"You all put down your weapons and don't resist. You can still survive." Hu Chong waved his hand and let the soldiers go without any surprise.
He got out of bed and wanted to put on his shoes, but when he thought that he was going to die, it didn't matter whether he wore shoes or not. He bent down and took out a delicate wooden box from under the bed, opened it, and took out a porcelain bottle.
"Hey." Hu Chong sighed quietly, uncorked the bottle, and drank the liquid inside. Soon after, he was bleeding from all his orifices and lay on the bed.
After a while, the rebel soldiers reached Hu Chong's bedroom. After seeing this scene, a general stepped forward and cut off Hu Chong's head.
........
"drive!!!"
“Da da da!!!”
On the road leading to Huping County, a group of ten cavalrymen galloped towards Huping County. One of the cavalrymen had a large wooden box tied to the back of his horse.
Soon after, they entered the city.
In the main hall of a large house, Wu Nian sat on the main seat, followed by Zhang Jin, Liu Wu and twenty thousand households.
On the coffee table next to Wu Nian, there was an open wooden box, and inside it was Hu Chong's head.
"Hu Chong and Cao Ting have been defeated. Next is Wang Zhongbi. He divided the troops of five thousand households, gathered the surrendered troops of Hu Chong and Cao Ting, and sent them to Jiang County and handed them over to Liu Zhixing. The rest of the soldiers followed.
I'll set off together."
"Rendezvous with Feng Chong first, then attack Wang Zhongbi."
"Take Nanhai Mansion."
