Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 179: The Seizing of the City Comes to an End

As night fell, the world was once again shrouded in darkness.

It had been three days since Yuan Shu led his army to pursue Lu Bu. Hearing that there was a problem in Chang'an, Lu Bu had no choice but to withdraw his troops.

Regardless of the reason, Nanyang is no longer a threat. On the top of Wancheng, the drowsy soldiers were suddenly awakened by footsteps.

Climbing up to the female wall and looking out, I saw a group of men and horses slowly coming here, the torches were all lit, and by looking at their armor through the torches, they seemed to be soldiers from their own side.

"Is this the soldiers and horses that chased Lu Bu back?" The soldiers at the head of the city who saw this scene talked a lot, and some people started to call for the guards.

"It should be, and I don't know how the battle is going?"

Soon, the group of troops came to the city, and a general in bright armor looked at the closed city gate, frowned, and summoned a soldier to come over and shouted at the top of the city instead of him: "My general is Chen Chen. General Lan's general, Pound, why didn't he open the door!?"

The voice was an authentic Jianghuai accent. After speaking, someone shot a sharp arrow under the city, and before the defenders had time to react, it shot on the wooden pillar of the tower. There was a general order hanging on the arrow, and the shaft of the arrow was far away from the head of a soldier. Less than half a foot.

"Arrogance? It's as if you've won a battle. If you have the ability to compare arrows with Nalu Bu, and show off with us?" On the top of the city, the Wancheng defenders were dissatisfied and took off the general order on the arrow, confirming that it was their own army. , In addition, there is no doubt that the person who shouted was with a Jianghuai accent, but he just handed over the order to the team to lead the way.

As the main force brought by Yuan Shu, they are not friendly with the troops stationed in Nanyang. The Jianghuai Army thinks they are the main force and disdains the Nanyang Army. How can you see these so-called main forces.

"Open the door. I think it's a victory this time, and it's slow to open. I don't know how to ridicule me when I come in later." The team leader in charge of defending the city waved his hand. Although he had never heard of Pound's name, this Jianghuai The accent was correct, and no one thought Yuan Shu would lose this battle, so the defenders of Wancheng were not too wary.

"Here!" A few soldiers reluctantly lowered the suspension bridge. They still wanted to make things difficult for this group of arrogant people, but now they can only give up. They just look at these people showing off their power, and they feel somewhat dissatisfied in their hearts.

Under the city, looking at the suspension bridge falling slowly, Pound held Ma Chao, who was about to lose it, and said in a deep voice, "Steady!"

Ma Chao nodded, but the excitement in his eyes was hard to hide. He didn't expect that the gate of Wancheng would be tricked open so easily, and the spear in his hand stuck out twice from time to time, making stabbing movements.

Pound glanced at the hyperactive Ma Chao, and shook his head helplessly. The city gate had opened slowly, and Ma Chao was about to rush in first, but Pang De grabbed him: "Steady!"

It is another word of stability, which makes Ma Chao a little impatient, but now he is not in Xiliang, and Pound's military rank is higher than him. He could listen to Pound, held his temper, and followed the army slowly to the gate of the city.

A Nanyang soldier cupped his fists reluctantly and said to Pang De: "Congratulations, general..."

"Pfft~" Under the astonished gaze of the Nanyang Army, a long spear stabbed like lightning, piercing through his confidant before he could react.

This time, Pound didn't stop him again, and there was no need to stop him.

More than a dozen soldiers rushed out from both sides, met the bewildered eyes of several Nanyang soldiers inside the city gate, swung their knives and slashed.

"Kill!" Ma Chao imitated Lu Bu's way back then, using one arm to pick up the soldier, with a bit of excitement on his handsome face, he threw the soldier's body out fiercely, and then shouted , rode his horse and rushed into the city gate.

The defenders at the top of the city heard the shouts of killing coming from below the city, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. Someone wanted to control the winch to pull up the suspension bridge first, but the ropes of the suspension bridge had already been cut off by Pound's orders!

The siren sounded at the top of the city, and a few people started throwing stones towards the gate of the city, or shooting with bows and arrows.

But the army had already poured into the city, and teams of Xiliang troops began to rush towards the city. The city guards rushed to meet them, but these Xiliang army opponents who crawled out of the dead were only in a stalemate for a moment. , They were killed and scattered.

Ma Chao had already entered the city with a team of troops, but Pang De was not in a hurry. This time he came to steal the city, and Lu Bu gave five thousand elite soldiers. Thousands of people, this number of people is not enough to control Nanyang, after controlling the city gate, he quickly let people shoot a rocket.

After a while, patches of torches appeared one after another in the distance and rushed towards this side. Ma Chao led a team of troops to rush around the city, killing the Nanyang defenders who came to support them, and fled in all directions, but Pang De did not panic. He commanded the soldiers to seize important places in a leisurely manner.

With the arrival of the remaining 4,000 soldiers, Pang De began to attack the city and seized the remaining four gates.

The Nanyang garrison was shot off by Ma Chao. The Nanyang garrison gradually felt that something was wrong. When they started to retreat, they found that the four gates had been captured by Pang De, and the four gates were blocked. It was impossible to get out.

"General Ma, General Pang has an order that those who surrender will not be killed!" Just as Ma Chao was about to rise up, a soldier rushed to find them and shouted at Ma Chao.

Ma Chao was a little annoyed when he heard the words, this Pound is even more annoying than when he was in the Xiliang army!

But there is no way, who let others be the chief general, and he is only the deputy general?

He could only agree, and shouted sharply: "The surrender will not be killed!"

Having said that, Ma Chao was somewhat unwilling. If the opponent slowed down, he would shoot up. The Nanyang City was captured by the Xiliang Army, and its morale was already low. Now it met such a killer. After hearing the opponent's slogan of surrendering and not killing, many Nanyang troops threw away their weapons and surrendered in a hurry.

The situation in the city quickly stabilized with the surrender of a large number of Nanyang soldiers. As for those nobles in the city who wanted to take advantage of the chaos and escape, they were still extremely arrogant even when facing the Xiliang army, but the Xiliang army would not be used to it and dared to resist. Immediately, Yuan Shu's army couldn't stop it, let alone a group of private soldiers from aristocratic families.

The most important thing is that when the Xiliang army killed these powerful families, it really didn't mean to be soft-hearted, and even more ruthless. The families who were used to showing off their power in Nanyang were frightened, and finally had to temporarily compromise, and returned to their respective countries in disgrace. At home, the door is closed tightly and I dare not go out again.

"Trash!" Ma Chao spit dissatisfiedly looking at the private soldiers of the aristocratic family who retreated home and stayed behind closed doors. He wished that these people would resist more.

Now... there was no need to fight, so Ma Chao could only go back to report to Pound with a bit of reluctance.

"General, what should we do next?" Ma Chao looked at Pound and asked curiously.

Wancheng has been laid down, so what should we do next?

"Wait!" Pound replied casually, wiping his long knife.

"Wait?" Ma Chao looked at Pound puzzled.

"When Yuan Shu's defeated soldiers come back, the gates of the city were sealed immediately after entering the city, in order to block the news. Just wait, Yuan Shu will be here soon!" Pang De laughed.

After confirming that Yuan Shu was going out of the city to pursue the pursuit, they reached Wancheng by walking a small road in the mountains. The specific battle over there was not clear, but Pang De believed that Lu Bu and Gao Shun had set up ambushes everywhere. Cool generals make a move, it is impossible to lose.

They won Wancheng, they just need to wait here for Yuan Shu to come back, and throw a surprise banquet for Yuan Shu.

The battle of Nanyang, the moment Yuan Shu decided to pursue Lu Bu, was actually over.

"I hope my lord and the others can hurry up!" Ma Chao said a little bored.

In fact, Lu Bu didn't let Pound wait any longer. In the Qinling Mountains, first Chen Lan was defeated in Zhongfu, then Gao Shun drove the defeated army to attack the Chinese army, and then Lu Bu defeated Yuan Hou's army and Pang De attacked Wancheng. At that time, the three armies on Yuan Shu's side had been defeated.

Under the setting sun, in the Qinling Mountains.

"My lord, why didn't you let me kill Yuan Shu!?" Dian Wei came back with blood all over his body, and looked at Lu Bu with a puzzled expression.

Just now he had a chance to kill Yuan Shu, but was stopped by Lu Bu.

"If we kill him at this time, our army will get as much as Nanyang. Once Yuan Shu dies, Yuzhou, Jianghuai and other places will be cheaper for others." Lu Bu stood on the hill, looked at Yuan Shu's army leaving in embarrassment, shook his head and said .

Killing Yuan Shu is really not difficult for Lu Bu today, but after killing Yuan Shu, he can only get one piece of Nanyang, and places like Yuzhou and Jianghuai will be divided up by other princes. Made a wedding dress for someone else?

Dian Wei scratched his head, probably understood a little bit, turned his head to look at the direction Yuan Shu was escaping from, and still felt a little regretful.

Behind Lv Bu, Xun You listened to Lv Bu's answer and sighed silently in his heart. The nobles in Guanzhong are now completely defeated, and now Lv Bu has defeated Yuan Shu. This is not just as simple as winning a Nanyang!

In the battle of Nanyang, Lu Bu was like rectifying the name of the imperial court. Yuan Shu, as the most powerful prince today, came to attack with hundreds of thousands of troops, but was still defeated by Lu Bu. With the precedent of Yuan Shu, the princes of the world will definitely respect the imperial court. In this way, Lu Bu, who controls the court, will have even greater influence on the world!

A courageous and scheming Lv Bu... Xun You shook his head, but seeing Dian Wei glanced at him, his expression suddenly became serious, and he coughed lightly: "My lord, Yuan Shu has been defeated after this, Nanyang has no place to stay. , the army must be withdrawn, and next, the lord should start to emigrate."

The emigration has been done when there is nothing to do before. The people of Nanyang to the west of Nieyang have been relocated, and the people left are the nobles and nobles from all over the place, but that is a small part after all. Next is the big migration of the whole Nanyang This is different from the small fights before.

Lv Bu nodded, watched Yuan Shu go away and said, "Let him go because I want him to take some away."

Those who will go with Yuan Shu must be wealthy families and scholars from all over the world. If they leave some, it will also free up more space for Lu Bu and leave more resources for the next division of the Nanyang nobles.

Xun You didn't respond when he heard the words. The other princes wished that more gentry would stay, so that there would be talents and resources. But thinking about Lu Bu's new law, it is obvious that for Lu Bu, too many gentry are not needed, at least not now. Need, I don’t know what the situation in Guanzhong will be after returning to Guanzhong this time...
