Six years ago, Lu Su was only sixteen years old and was studying in Xiapi City.
At that time, Lu Su only had a rough understanding of swordsmanship.
The standard of the Han Dynasty's Six Arts of a Gentleman.
They had thought that they would die in the chaos, but the Yellow Turban bandits suddenly retreated. After asking around, they found out that Xu Xiaowan's army had killed the Yellow Turban commander, He Man, in the middle of the battle. This greatly boosted the morale of the Xiapi army and soldiers, scaring the Yellow Turban bandits into fleeing in panic.
The 12-year-old Xu Xiao that Lu Su saw from afar that day, dressed in blood-red clothes, was a heavenly being!
Xu Xiao was overjoyed when he saw Lu Su kowtow.
This feeling of being able to bow down to a famous official and general was actually very satisfying!
There's Mi Zhu in front.
Later, there was Lu Su.
Xu Xiao dismounted and helped Lu Su up.
"To be able to get Zijing to submit is better than killing the traitor Zuo Rong!”
Lu Su was excited.
At this time, Lu Su was only twenty-two years old, the age of youth and vigor.
Lu Su had defected to Xu Xiao, but when he saw that most of the manor had been burned, he abandoned the manor and let his trusted aides escort his family to Peng City.
Lu Su led 500 soldiers and followed Xu Xiao.
On the other side.
Ding Xiaoxiu and the Danyang soldiers also encountered the remnants of Zuo Rong's troops.
Without Zuo Rong's command, the remaining soldiers were no match for Ding Xiaoxiu and the Danyang soldiers.
After a few rounds, he was defeated by the Elixir Yang soldiers.
Xu Xiao led Lu Su and met up with the Danyang soldiers. Then, they headed south in the starry night and arrived at Guangling.
At this moment, Guangling Prefecture Governor Zhao Yu was upset because Xu Xiao had ousted him from his position.
Although he had already put up a notice refusing to acknowledge Xu Xiao's identity as the governor of Xu Prefecture.
However, the aristocratic families of officials in Guangling City were not united.
If not for Zhao Yu having the deterrence of soldiers and horses, he would have long made Zhao Yu scram!
Especially the Official World that hated Zhao Yu, they wanted to take this opportunity to kill Zhao Yu.
"Report! Lord Prefect, a large number of soldiers suddenly appeared outside the city. They claimed to be Xu Xiao, the governor of Xu Prefecture!”
Zhao Yu turned pale with fright.
"Xu Xiao has arrived at Guangling?"
Zhao Yu couldn't help but be surprised.
He had only returned to Guangling for less than three days!
This Xu Xiao's army had already reached Guangling?
"Damn Xu Xiao, did you scheme against me from the beginning?”
Zhao Yu didn't understand Xu Xiao.
He thought that even if Xu Xiao took over as the governor of Xu Prefecture, it would take at least a month or two to conquer Guangling.
At that time.
Zhao Yu had long forged Guang Ling into an iron bucket.
But Zhao Yu never would have thought that he had just returned to Guangling, and it had only been a day since the Xu Prefecture's Provincial Governor's Office's denunciation of Zhao Yu's dismissal, and Xu Xiao's troops had already arrived at the city gates!
"Follow me to the city!"
Surrender was impossible!
If they surrendered now, they would die without any objections!
Zhao Yu immediately put on his armor and came to the city tower.
The moment he saw Xu Xiao, Zhao Yu opened his mouth and scolded,""Traitor Xu Xiao, usurping the provincial governor, I, Zhao Yu, will not rest until you die!”
Zhao Yu knew his disadvantage.
Thus, the moment he opened his mouth, he first defined Xu Xiao as a traitor who usurped the provincial governor.
It didn't matter if it was fake or not.
It didn't matter if someone doubted him.
As long as people believed that he, Zhao Yu, was not a traitor, it was enough!
After all.
Even though Zhao Yu was Guangling Prefecture, not all of Guangling's troops listened to Zhao Yu!
It was also because of this that Xu Xiao's troops arrived at Guangling so quickly.
Speed is the most important thing in war.
Taking advantage of the fact that Zhao Yu had yet to eliminate the dissidents in Guang Ling, to suddenly send troops to Guang Ling was enough to cause Guang Ling to fall into chaos without fighting!
"Guangling's officials, listen up. The Provincial Governor's Office has already removed Zhao Yu from his position as Guangling's prefect, and the denunciation has already reached Guangling. Now that Zhao Yu has disobeyed the order and is supporting Guangling without permission, according to the law, Zhao Yu is considered a traitor!”
"This provincial governor will give you the time it takes an incense stick to burn.”
"After the time for an incense stick to burn, all the officials and generals in Guangling will be treated as traitors and will be severely punished.”
Xu Xiao completely ignored Zhao Yu's curses.
He didn't even look at Zhao Yu. All he could see were the other officials and generals on the city gate tower!
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
Eight hundred Snowy Dragon Cavalry and five thousand Danyang soldiers shouted in unison. Their voices were majestic and the generals and officials on Guangling City couldn't help but feel their hearts tremble.
Zhao Yu saw that the hearts of the people were wavering, and he panicked in his heart. He drew his sword and shouted,"Don't listen to this traitor's lies. Provincial Governor Tao has already been harmed by this traitor. His position as provincial governor was usurped, not appointed by the Imperial Court!”
"Archers, get ready!"
"Today, I, Zhao Yu, will eliminate evil for the country and eliminate evil for the people!”
"Retreat the latter, slash! Those who disturb our morale will be beheaded!"
Zhao Yu's trusted aides all commanded the archers to aim at Xu Xiao's troops.
However, the other generals were hesitant.
Xu Xiao came too quickly!
They couldn't react at all. Who was telling the truth?
Zhao Yu's words made sense.
However, the Elixir Yang Soldiers under the city were not easily mobilized by a fake provincial governor!
When Zhao Yu saw this, he shouted,"Release the arrows!"”
Zhao Yu sneered in his heart.
As long as the war started, even if these people on the city gate tower did not want to fight, they would have no choice.
Because…
The moment they started fighting, the generals of the city gate tower would all be seen as traitors by Xu Xiao!
Or they would be exterminated.
Or follow him, Zhao Yu, and fight to the death!
Arrows rained down.
Some Scarlet Yang Shieldbearers raised their shields to defend against the arrows.
"Damn it! Who told you to shoot arrows!"
Defending General Lu Dai was shocked.
Once this arrow was released, wouldn't they all become rebels?
"But Lord Prefect!"
"The prefect wants to die, but I don't want to die with him!”
Zhao Yu saw that Lu Dai's morale had been shaken, and he flew into a rage."Lu Dai, you dare to disobey orders?"
Lu Dai gritted his teeth." Zhao Yu, don't think that I'm just a boor. The current situation is unclear, so I should discuss it with the generals and schools. However, you started the war without permission. This already shows that you have a guilty conscience! Brothers, only by capturing and killing Zhao Yu will we have a chance to live! Otherwise, we would all be buried with Zhao Yu today!”
Zhao Yu was furious and shot an arrow at Lu Dai, but Lu Dai dodged it!
A chaotic battle instantly broke out on the city gate tower.
But even though Lu Dai saw through Zhao Yu's scheme, he had fewer soldiers and was gradually suppressed by Zhao Yu's personal soldiers.
At this moment.
Suddenly, a general came to report,"Lord Prefect, it's not good! The county magistrate, Bu Zhi, has opened the city gates!"”
Zhao Yu was so shocked that his three souls and seven spirits were gone."Damn Zhao Zishan, how dare you betray me!”
Bu Zhi was the county deputy that Zhao Yu had personally promoted and was trusted by Zhao Yu.
The sudden rebellion caught Zhao Yu off guard!
"My lord, the city gates are already open. Guangling cannot be defended anymore.”
Zhao Yu glared fiercely at Xu Xiao below the city and made a prompt decision, preparing to retreat.
