In recent years, Lu Meng has gradually become one of Zhou Yu's right-hand assistants. Since Zhou Lang has gradually become tired of military affairs recently, Lu Meng's work has been busier than before. He is obviously a brave and powerful soldier, but he has to coordinate the relationship between the generals all day long and toss some trivial matters. However, it is precisely because of the much energy spent on coordinating the generals that Lu Meng saw a lot and thought a lot. When Zhou Lang ordered the army to raise an army to fight, Lu Meng opposed it in his heart.
Zhou Lang had a big vision. He had the whole world and the great cause of Wu Hou in his eyes, but he was unwilling to lower his head and listen to the thoughts of the generals and soldiers. He was never willing to admit that no one of the civil and military ministers under Wu Hou wanted to fight with Xuandegong like this. After the Battle of Chibi, most of the soldiers were also exhausted. Lu Meng did not understand why Zhou Lang was so paranoid, and he couldn't understand where his confidence came from.
Lu Meng shook his head and drove all these random thoughts out of his mind.
Since he is a warrior, he has to execute the order. Zhou Lang has Zhou Lang's consideration. As a subordinate, he just needs to do his best to complete the task. His current goal is only the public security.
In order to achieve this goal, Lu Meng made some effort. He first allocated most of the navy to Cheng Pu, and used Cheng Pu's troops to attract the main force of the Public Security Guard to the south. Then he used a partial division to attack the oil port and attracted the remaining guard forces to the north. The war between the south and the north was enough to drain the last little force in the Public Security City, while he was directly under the Public Security City.
At that time, you may either capture Gong'an City in one go... Of course, it depends on luck; or you may siege the city and attack the defenders, force the defenders to rescue them, and then attack them from north to south, destroy all the defenders in field battles, and then turn back and slowly clean up the lonely city of Gong'an City. By then, the safety of countless soldiers and families in Gong'an City will be held in the hands of the Eastern Wu. When the news came to the Tang Dynasty, Duke Xuande's main force would inevitably be in chaos. Perhaps Zhou Lang could not defeat Jingzhou without having to fight hard, which was the best.
Unfortunately, this was a sudden action across the surging river. Even with the strength of the Jiangdong naval army, it was difficult for the various troops to contact each other, so Lu Meng didn't know where Gan Ning was now. If the two armies could join forces, they would have a greater grasp.
At this time, the soldiers' combat preparations had been basically completed and the sky was completely bright. Looking at the position where Lu Meng stood, the sunlight penetrated the gaps in the branches and leaves in the forest, and fell obliquely on the soldiers' armor and weapons, faintly revealing the reflection of stars. Chengdang, Xu Gu and the other generals were coming out of the forest and striding towards Lu Meng.
At the same time, Lu Meng's personal soldiers also prepared all the war horses. It is not easy to transport war horses under such harsh conditions. If the war horses hike over and catch a cold, they may get seriously ill in the future.
The personal soldiers led the horse over, and Lu Meng jumped up and leaned over to the two generals and said, "Along this road, we will go thirty miles eastward, and then we will reach the Gong'an City. I personally led fifty cavalry and set out first, trying to kill the soldiers in the checkpoints along the way, and then try to seize the Gong'an City Gate. You are immediately following behind. If I succeed in grabbing the door and sending a signal immediately, you will take advantage of the opportunity to enter and seize the entire city; if you fail to succeed, you two will adapt to the situation and make everything necessary to prevent the Jingzhou army from returning to the Public Security Bureau."
As the chief general of thousands of horses, he actually had to personally lead fifty cavalry to the front of the entire army and attack the police.
Although this was a strategy that had been drawn up before departure, it still made Cheng Dang and Xu Gu Er generals lose their lust. Cheng Dang hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but persuade: "General, why should you take risks in person? I should take the door and the general should be in a calm manner."
Lu Meng smiled.
For Zhou Lang, who was stationed in Baqiu, if he conquered the Gong'an City, he would naturally have a huge shock to Liu Bei's main force; if he took a step back, even if he just surrounded him and failed, it would be enough to shake the fighting spirit of the soldiers of Jingzhou. Therefore, whether to fall into the city is not extremely important. But deep in Lu Meng's heart, he had no confidence in the result of the head-on battle between the two armies of Jingyang; therefore, he hoped to use a beautiful surprise attack to capture the Public Security Bureau at one time, determine the situation, and try to prevent the Wu army from falling into the quagmire of long-term fierce battles.
Thinking of this, the significance of this sneak attack is extraordinary and worth a try himself.
Perhaps it was because his body was born with blood that was adventurous. When thinking about the next sneak attack, Lu Meng was highly excited. As the ancients said, how could he get a tiger's son if he didn't explore the tiger's den?
He lowered his head and checked his dress again. The black turtle, crimson military uniform, black armor, light red martial arts crown, belt, long sword, and the emblem on his back were all very complete. His subordinates were also fully equipped... This outfit was the standard equipment for the cavalry under Xuande Gong. It took him a lot of energy to collect one of them and piece them together.
"Success or failure is here, I will take the lead, and you will urge your troops to follow!" He shouted in a deep voice: "Start!"
Fifty cavalry followed Lu Meng and urged his horse to go east.
The road along the river was in good condition. After walking for three miles, the group of people saw the Wanglou who had reported it carefully before.
The Watch Tower is used to observe the situation on the river surface and guard against the Eastern Wu Navy. There were several soldiers on duty in the building. Duke Xuande obtained the south bank of Nanjun from Zhou Lang. When the Gong's construction of the Public Security City, the Sun-Liu Alliance seemed to be as close as a family. However, after Duke Xuande entered the Public Security Bureau, he immediately opened the Watch Tower and checkpoints along the river. Obviously, he had been in a bad mood for his long time, so he was so wary of his allies.
When the soldiers on the Wanglou saw a cavalry rushing towards him, they just thought it was their patrol cavalry. Someone asked about the pass command of the day, and some people came out of Wanglou to check it out.
Lu Meng was from Runan. He slowed down his pace and responded with a few words in Runan accent. Because Duke Xuande had joined the Yellow Turban Remnants in Runan, there were many Runan people in Jingzhou army, and the sentry came out with almost no precautions. He was talking with a smile. Lu Meng rushed forward and cut off his throat with a knife.
The squirting blood made the other soldiers stunned for a moment. The knights rushed up and quickly slashed and killed them. The few people on the top of the tower were immediately killed by arrows.
According to Lu Meng's understanding, Jingzhou whistle cavalry has been wandering frequently in the past few days. Even if the soldiers stationed in the Wanglou are killed, once the Jingzhou whistle cavalry patrolls nearby, they will immediately find the place of their own army. However, there will be one or two hours between the whistle cavalry. With this time difference, it is enough for Lu Meng to approach the police city.
Lu Meng's face was unchanged and put the knife into the sheath, sweeping away the blood stains on the armor leaves.
