The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 339

[Chapter 334 The Battle of Chu and Yue 2]

Jiujiang County, the county seat of Panyang City.

At this moment, most of the defenders in the city had already left the city and rushed to Pengdi, which was 100 miles away from Panyang. There, they formed a resistance army with the troops in other counties, with a total of 100,000 people, as a defense against the Chu army. The first line of defense going south.

This time the Chu army went south, not directly crossing the Yangtze River to Wujun Danyang and other places, which is not realistic.

Not to mention whether there are so many ferry crossings in Wu County for the Chu army to board 6, it is said that Wu County, as the hinterland of the Yue Kingdom, has a lot of troops.

In addition, the people in the county are more interested in the country of Yue, and the country of Yue has many eyes and ears here, plus some suitable ferry ports, all have some soldiers and horses, and some obstacles are being set up. It is really difficult to board 6 here. ascend to the sky.

On the contrary, it was different in Lujiang County.

Since ancient times, Lujiang County has been the place where Wuyue and Chu compete for dominance. It has been a battlefield for many years.

Naturally, in this place, people from Wu and Yue and people from Chu have penetrated each other, and they are inseparable from each other.

However, most of the time, the state of Chu still has the upper hand. In many places in Lujiang County, more than 2/3 of them exist as the territory of the state of Chu.

Therefore, this is also the reason why the Chu State’s forces resisting the rebels here were able to persist for so long.

If the rebels had not suddenly moved south and concentrated all their forces to the south of the Yangtze River, the rebel forces in Lujiang County would have swelled several times, and the defending troops of Chu State, which had been struggling to support them, were suddenly extinguished, and Lujiang became a rebel. under the rule of the army.

However, now that the army of Chu State is heading south, 20,000 troops have crossed the Yangtze River and once again stepped into the homeland of the State of Chu, the Lujiang River. The opposite of the Yue army, however, has been retreating and struggling to support.

This kind of good news suddenly cheered up the people of Chu country, and many undercurrents were surging under Lujiang County.

For example, in today’s Panyang City.

The original 50,000 defenders in the city had all been transferred to the front line by the local defenders of the Yue Kingdom, in the area of Pendy.

Taking advantage of the mountainous situation there, as well as being the main communication route connecting many counties and counties on the Lujiang River, he guarded the pass here and blocked the footsteps of the Chu army.

After this round of selection, there were only 3,000 defenders left in the city, and they could barely maintain law and order in the city, as well as shock the towns and villages within 30 miles outside the city.

However, the majesty maintained by such a power cannot deter most people. On the contrary, it made them see through the weakness of the Vietnamese army even more, and their hearts couldn’t help but tumble even more.

In the middle of the night, Panyang City is now facing war, and a curfew has already been implemented.

On the street, a group of armored soldiers patrolled the surroundings in an orderly manner, staggering each other from time to time, cruising back and forth, quite closely.

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

However, in this darkness, bright eyes were staring at the soldiers of the Yue Kingdom on the street outside, and their eyes were full of killing intent.

Counting them down, there are actually several pairs or a dozen pairs of eyes staring at the army on the street in the rooms of the entire street, and there are faint flashes of sword lights in the room, under the illumination of the moonlight, Clear and bright.

Huh–a sound.

This sharp and loud voice suddenly sounded in the city. This voice seemed to be a certain signal. In an instant, the originally silent city was instantly ignited and turned into a noisy market.

Bang bang bang bang!

Countless cluttered sounds sounded, but the furniture in the room and the sound caused by breaking the door.

“Kill! Kill all these Yueguo dogs, kill all these rebels, and welcome Master Wang back!”

“Kill! Kill all these foreign mud legs and take back the dignity of our Lujiang people!”

I saw countless passionate voices sounding, and they were connected in an instant, and countless people responded, resounding throughout the city.

As a result, countless soldiers, either with hatred or with other intentions, rushed out of the room with a hula-la, and rushed towards them with a hideous face amid the shocked faces of the soldiers outside.

A few puffs.

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

wow wow wow.

In the whole city, on the street, and in the room, countless torches were suddenly lit, and the transparent fire light illuminated the whole city as bright as day.

Countless crisp metal collisions, roaring shouts, or other messy sounds filled the entire city.

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

In the seventh year of Emperor Yuan, August.

It has been a month since the Chu army went south, and the defenders of Pengdi in Lujiang County of Yue State fought. The battle was lingering.

200,000 troops were blocked from walking,

The Chu army’s originally sharp and unstoppable offensive suddenly stagnated and declined.

However, afterward, the remaining 30,000 Chu troops crossed the river behind Fanpengdi, that is, north of Panyang City, and overwhelmed Fanyang City.

For a while, Panyang City was terrified.

3 days later, when 300,000 Chu troops had already pressed down thirty miles north of Panyang City, a mutiny broke out in the city at night.

Many local clans in Lujiang County, or the nobles who have been attacked, have united and inspired many people to form a rebel army. Anyway, they will fight against the brutal rule of Yue Kingdom.

He also drove out the defenders in the city that night, took back control of Panyang City, and sent envoys to the Chu army camp overnight to surrender to the commander of the Chu army, and hoped that Chu Jun would forgive them who were weak in defending the city. guilt.

The Chu army was overjoyed when they got the news. Early the next morning, they dispatched 3,000 cavalry to Panyang City, ready to take over the city defense, and by the way to test whether the surrender was true.

mid-August.

Panyang City has completely fallen into the hands of 30 million Chu troops, and the 10 million Yue troops located in Pengdi have completely fallen into the urn, facing the power of 30 Wan Chu troops and the opposite 20 Wan Chu troops. annihilate.

In the last ten days, 10,000 Vietnamese troops were attacked and annihilated by the Chu army, beheading 50,000, and the rest fled more than 20,000 people and hid in the deep mountains. After a few months, only a few survived.

The remaining 30,000 people surrendered and were turned into slaves by the king of Chu. They all rushed to Jiangling and other places to rebuild the tombs of ancestors for Chu.

Under the heavy labor, in the end, only a hundred people survived.

Early September.

During the autumn harvest season, on the fields that are already full of rice, there are not many farmers harvesting. The good fields are deserted, and the millet is rotten in the fields. I don’t know how many farmers who make a living from the fields are heartbroken.

At the same time, 500,000 Chu troops overwhelmed Wu County in the Yue Kingdom, and the Yue Kingdom was in turmoil, and there was a fear of subjugation.
