Chapter 206: Punishing Wu County (4)

In Wuxi city, the backyard of the county government office.

Yan Yu had just fallen asleep. Today he had been tired for a day and kept running around the city to suppress the changes in the army. Yan Yu had a headache. Fortunately, Zhou Yu still did not attack the city today, so he should be able to have a good rest tonight.

Yan Yu lay on the couch, posing in a comfortable position, hoping to let his swelling head rest for a good rest. He had decided to withdraw his troops tomorrow and go to Yuhang to find his elder brother Yan Baihu. After all, he would stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood. At worst, he would go into the mountains and become a bandit again. Brothers work together, will he be the same free and happy day?

Suddenly, a faint noise came into Yan Yu's ears. At first, Yan Yu didn't care. He thought that the people in the city gathered together and made a noise. He gradually couldn't sleep anymore because the noise was getting louder and closer, and occasionally there were sounds of weapons intersecting each other.

"Ergouzi~~Ergouzi~~" Yan Yu turned over and shouted loudly at his closest personal soldiers. Strangely, Ergouzi, who had just arrived at the same time, did not respond at all.

In desperation, Yan Yu had to walk out of the county government alone. In order to defend himself, he took a knife casually. When he went out, he saw that, he saw that, he was amazing. There were countless soldiers and people running around in a panic on the street. There was a fire rising from the sky in the distance. I don’t know who set the fire, which made him feel even more panic.

Yan Yu grabbed a soldier passing by him and asked sternly: "Tell me~~What's going on? Why are you so panicked?"

The soldier struggled hard for a few times, and was about to get angry. Seeing that it was the commander of his army, he hurriedly replied: "Enemma~~The enemy is coming into the city!!"

Yan Yu suddenly felt his head buzzing, and his hands couldn't help but relax. The soldier saw that Yan Yu's expression was wrong, and was afraid that he would kill him in anger, so he sneaked away.

At this time, Yan Yu's personal soldier Ergouzi led several soldiers to come over in a hurry. When he saw Yan Yu, he hurriedly said, "General~ General~ Let's go quickly, the enemy is almost killing the county government!"

Yan Yu shouted: "Coward! Go and get my armor, let's drive the enemy out of the city together!"

"Don't leave the enemy general! Zhao Zilong in Changshan is here!" Suddenly, a loud shout exploded in Yan Yu's ear. Yan Yu turned his head and saw a white-robed general sitting on a white horse not far away, with a gun in his palm. His cold eyes shot on Yan Yu like a knife.

Zhao Zilong? Who is this? Yan Yu did not take him seriously. He raised his knife and rushed towards Zhao Yun with a loud shout. All he used was desperate moves, and he had a draw with Zhao Yun for a moment.

Zhao Yun's face remained unchanged. He shot a spear to make water clear, protecting his people and the horse under his crotch, and constantly using counterattack moves. Gradually, Zhao Yun's offensive became stronger and stronger, and Yan Yu began to be a little unable to withstand it, and sweat faintly emerged from his forehead.

"其~~" Zhao Yun shouted loudly, and the head of the Yajiao Gun turned into silver stars and stabbed Yan Yu quickly. Yan Yu wanted to use a knife to knock it, but the Yajiao Gun suddenly turned and stabbed Yan Yu's body from an incredible angle.

Yan Yu's eyes widened and fell to the ground. At this moment, everything around him had lost its color in Yan Yu's eyes. He felt that his vitality was flying away from the wound like sand...

Zhao Yun pulled out the Yajiao gun with force, and blood immediately spurted out from Yan Yu's wound. Yan Yu's body twitched a few times and then stopped moving. A soldier with a tiger-backed and bear-waisted waist walked out of Zhao Yun, pulled out his waist knife and chopped off Yan Yu's head. Zhao Yun then raised Yan Yu's head with a gun and shouted loudly: "Yan Yu is dead, why don't you surrender?"

Those Yan Yu's subordinates who were still fighting stubbornly saw that the master was dead, suddenly lost the courage to resist. They either raised their hands to surrender or scattered birds and beasts.

An hour later, Wuxi City had changed hands and there was no sound of fighting in the city. Zhou Yu's entire army entered the city. The female soldiers from the female barracks began to maintain order throughout the city. Zang Ba led the soldiers to take charge of the city defense, and at the same time sent the scouts out from afar.

Yan Yu died in battle, most of his subordinates surrendered, and a small number of escaped returned to their hometowns and became farmers honestly. In this battle, Yan Baihu's main force in the Wu army was wiped out, and Zhou Yu took nearly 20,000 troops to collect surrendered troops alone. According to the usual method, Zhou Yu left Lu Dai to be responsible for reorganizing the 20,000 troops. After the reorganization, except for the soldiers who were organized into various units of the army, the rest of the surrendered troops were placed in the military farmland in Wuxi County.

The next day, after resettling the surrendered troops, Zhou Yu immediately rushed straight to Wu County. At this time, Wu County had been under Dong Shi for two days. He was ordered by Zhou Yu to strictly restrain his subordinates. After entering the city, he did not violate any crimes and opened the granary to provide relief to the poor. Seeing that Zhou Yu's army was so strict, it formed a sharp contrast with the rude and cruelty of Yan Baihu's army, he cheered and ran around to tell him. There were still many young people asking to join the army.

After Zhou Yu led his troops to Wu County, he received news that Gao Shun's troops had captured Wu Cheng, so he informed Gao Shun that after a day of rest, the two armies went south separately, with the target of Yuhang, the southernmost county in Wu County.

Zhou Yu knew that Wu County was a place full of talents. As soon as he arrived in Wu County, he asked officials to set up a recruitment hall to recruit local talents. From the information of Jingwuwei, Zhou Yu learned that Gu Yong, a talented man from Wu County, had been thrown into prison by Yan Baihu, so he went to the prison to release Gu Yong himself and invited Gu Yong to sit in the prefect's mansion. The two had a good chat and exchanged opinions on the situation in the world and internal affairs.

Seeing that Gu Yong had no intention of being cold, Zhou Yu expressed his intention to recruit him. Seeing that Zhou Yu was both literary and martial, he had the idea of ​​seeking favors in his heart. Seeing Zhou Yu like this, he immediately turned his head and bowed, saying, "Yong greeted the lord."

Zhou Yu laughed loudly, grabbed Gu Yong's hand and said, "Yuan Tan is a great talent. I have heard of it now in Lujiang. Now that Yuan Tan helps me, it is my luck."

At this moment, Zhou Yu appointed Gu Yong as the governor of Wu County, acting as the prefect, and was responsible for all the internal affairs of Wu County. Gu Yong was moved to see Zhou Yu valued him so much, and since then he has worked diligently to manage the internal affairs of Wu County, governing the Wu army in an orderly manner, and the people are rich and the country is safe.

On the second day, Zhou Yu led a large army south. Because he had placed 3,000 surrendered troops in the army, Zhou Yu temporarily placed the 3,000 surrendered troops in the camp and was led by Dong Xi. The army rushed straight to Yuhang in a mighty manner, and the counties along the way all surrendered.

When they arrived in Yuhang, they realized that Gao Shun's troops had occupied Yuhang County. Zhou Yu led his troops to march quickly. After rushing to Yuhang City, the two armies met. Zhou Yu and Gao Shun met. After the greetings, Gao Shun said with a smile: "Lord, Shun recommends someone for you, but he has made great contributions for us!"
