On this side, Liu Feng thought of a way out after conquering Xinye and Fancheng. On the other side, under the mobilization of Lu Su and Zhao Yun.
The army was divided into three parts.
Four thousand of them continued to be stationed locally, responsible for protecting their own population and transportation. Four thousand of them followed Zhao Yunnan to Fancheng, and the last four thousand followed Lu Su to attack Xinye.[
Although there are more than ten cities in the surrounding area, the two largest cities are Fancheng and Xinye. These two cities will naturally become the key garrison cities. Together with the more than ten cities around them, they form Liu Feng's power.
scope.
In the world, a small force within the world has officially appeared.
The first city to be conquered must be Xinye.
On the one hand, Deng Shun, the former governor of Xinye, went to Xiangyang. In addition, many important officials were killed by Lu Su at the gate of the camp.
On the other hand, Lu Su's camp was too close to Xinye, almost only ten miles away.
Like lightning, Lu Su's army appeared outside the city of Xinye.
It's noon now, which is a time for laziness.
The same goes for the guards on the city. Some people were even lazily basking in the sun against the female wall. Xinye was on the front line, but Liu Biao did not station a large army or a strong general.
Coupled with the laziness of the soldiers, it all proves Yi Ji's words. Jingchu's military preparations are lax, and he is destined to be a fat sheep in troubled times, not a lion.
When Lu Su's army arrived, the guards on the city suddenly panicked.
"An enemy attack, it's an enemy attack."
The soldiers could only yell and even forget to close the city gate. In this way, Lu Su and his army entered Xinye City smoothly.
"Immediately send someone to ask Tian Feng to come and take charge of government affairs." After entering the city, he first issued this order, and then led his generals into the prefect's mansion.
At this moment, in the hall of the Prefect's Mansion, Lu Su was sitting on the commander's seat, and below him were the Sima, Marquis and other generals of the left and right armies.
After successfully entering the new territory, Lu Su's expression remained unchanged. When the generals under his tent arrived, they were all gearing up and very excited.
Seeing this, Lu Su smiled slightly and said: "Liu Biao is just a coward, but he has occupied the nine counties of Jingchu. Now I have 12,000 soldiers under my command. With the elite soldiers from hundreds of battles, one can fight against five."

If we don't take advantage of the situation to attack Jingzhou and occupy Jingzhou, we would be really sorry for ourselves. Capturing Xinye today is just the beginning. Capturing Xiangfan is the goal. All officers and men must kill the enemy well and show off our majesty."
"We will do our best." The generals raised their fists and said loudly.
During this period, the generals personally felt the strength of Lu Su. Starting from the eighty elite soldiers, they occupied Chaohu and captured Runan.
Finally, we reached the point where there were 200,000 people, including 12,000 elite soldiers. However, the generals were always a little unsteady.[
Why? Because Lu Su never revealed his goals to them, nor did he have a city to settle down. He was like a duckweed without roots.
And the world is in troubled times. Of course the generals are not at ease.
But now Lu Su suddenly rose up, occupied Xinye, and threatened to conquer Xiangfan and occupy the nine counties of Jingchu. Now he has a city where he can live and work, and he has a sense of great ambition.
