Chapter 417 Blitz Strikes Zhu Ti City

Chapter 416: Blitz Strike Zhu Ti City

In the 22nd year of Qianyuan, on December [-]th, in a primeval jungle in the northern border of the southern country, Li Pingzhang and Xue Dingshan led their troops to lurk here. It has been three days since they entered the jungle under the order of Deng Zhong. He took the decoction to resist the miasma, but the strong miasma still brought a strong sense of discomfort, and some soldiers died because they could not be cured, but the good news is that after three days of adjustment, Deng Jun finally adapted to the miasma. life under the diffuse.

After adapting to the miasma, Li Pingzhang and Xue Dingshan began to send people to wipe out the southerners in the jungle. Although the Southern Kingdom was careless about the defense of the northern border, the Southern Kingdom still sent many spies in the jungle here, and these spies were all killed. Deng Jun killed, and there are many southern people living in the jungle.

"Dingshan, we have been here for three days, why hasn't the general's marching order arrived yet?" On a flat ground in the jungle, there stands a simple camp. This is the camp set up by Li Pingzhang and Xue Dingshan. Li Pingzhang told Xue Dingshan at the gate of the camp that they had entered the jungle under Deng Zhong's order for many days, and they had already adapted to the discomfort caused by the miasma. Why did Deng Zhong's order to march take so long?
"Hehe, Pingzhang, are you impatient?" Hearing Li Pingzhang's words, Xue Dingshan said with a smile. He and Li Pingzhang grew up together, and they also joined the Freedom Guard. They have a very good relationship, and both of them are relatively powerful It can be said that the relationship between Li Pingzhang and Xue Dingshan is better than that with his two cousins ​​Li Siwen and Li Derang.

"Impatient, of course I am impatient. Your Majesty's decree is for us Wudangwei to take over the Southern Kingdom before the summer of next year. It's almost half of the time now, and we still haven't made any progress. Why don't you feel anxious." Li Pingzhang also frankly admitted that he is a little impatient now, and he can't help but not be impatient. Deng Sheng's order was to destroy the Southern Kingdom before the summer. Counting from the day when he received the order, it was not enough Half a year, but now two months have passed, how can Li Pingzhang not be in a hurry.

Li Pingzhang was in a hurry, but Xue Dingshan was not in a hurry at all, he just laughed and said: "Pingzhang, after so many years, you still can't change your quick temper. You must know that haste makes waste. Although Nanguo is weak, it should not be underestimated. This battle is our first battle without a guard, and it is also the first step to become famous, so we need to be careful every step we take, and we must not be careless in the slightest. It seems that there is no progress now, but it is the best Yes, because the general is waiting for the right moment to strike!"

"The right timing? When is that? There is no reason for us to wait here." Li Pingzhang is not ignorant of the truth that haste makes waste, but Deng Zhong and Deng people talk about timing every day, so what is the timing? When it will come, but no one has ever told him, which makes him upset.

"Nian Guan!" Just when Li Pingzhang was sulking about the so-called timing again, Xue Dingshan suddenly said such a sentence, which made Li Pingzhang puzzled, and asked puzzledly: "Nian Guan? What does year end mean?"

Xue Dingshan said: "If I'm not wrong, the time for the general and the military adviser to wait is at the end of the new year. When the new year comes, it will be the time for our army to march!"

"March at the New Year's Eve? But Nanzhong people don't celebrate the New Year. They have their own festivals. They have never been interested in the New Year's celebration in the Central Plains. Even at the New Year's Eve, they will not let down their vigilance!" This made Li Pingzhang even more uncomfortable. Understood, it’s easy to understand that marching at the end of the new year, in the Central Plains, the Chinese New Year is a big event, and every household celebrates it, praying to drive away bad luck and usher in good luck in the coming year, whenever this time comes, the entire Central Plains will be immersed In the midst of joy, if you suddenly mobilize troops at this time, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

But Nanzhong is no better than the Central Plains. People from Nanzhong don't live in the New Year, so it may not be easier to march at the end of the year than at other times!

Xue Dingshan shook his head and said, "Pingzhang, you don't understand. Yes, the soldiers of the Southern Kingdom celebrate the new year, but the generals of the Southern Kingdom celebrate it. Most of the important ministers of the Southern Kingdom come from the nobles of the Southern Kingdom, and most of the nobles of the Southern Kingdom are from the New Year. The Central Plains people who followed Zhao Tuo to the south, they left their hometowns and came to Tiannan. They must miss their hometown, but they can't return to their hometown, but they can only relieve their homesickness through some hometown festivals, and the New Year is one of them. It is a major festival, and because of this, this tradition has been handed down among the upper-class nobles of the southern country, and it has continued to this day. At the end of the new year, although the people of the southern country will not make a fuss, among the upper-class nobles of the southern country, they are quite Nan Wang’s birthday is even more grand.”

"That is to say, on New Year's Day, the civil and military ministers of the Southern Kingdom will stay at home with their families, and will not appear in the military camp!" After hearing Xue Dingshan's words, Li Pingzhang suddenly realized, as if he had thought of something.

Xue Dingshan nodded, and said: "That's right, at Jieshi, all the generals of the Southern Army stayed at home, and the Southern Army had no one to command, wouldn't it be a god-sent opportunity for our army? When all the generals of the Southern Army arrived, we The army has already dealt with the tens of thousands of southern troops scattered outside the city!"

Hearing this, Li Pingzhang smiled. At this moment, he really admired Deng Zhong and Su Yun. It is really not easy to count even this.

The days passed day by day, and it finally came to the 22nd year of Qianyuan, December, [-]th, and tomorrow is the new year. On this day, all the generals of the Southern Army returned home to spend time with their families. Zhu Ti, who had been disturbed in the past The outside of the city instantly calmed down.

In Deng Jun's camp.Deng Zhong has led all the guards to come here. After nearly [-] days of suppression, this forest has been firmly controlled by Deng Jun, and there is no southerner within a radius of [-] miles.

At this time, Deng Jun had already dismantled the camp, and all the soldiers had assembled. As night fell, a trace of killing intent appeared on the faces of the soldiers without guards. They had been preparing for nearly three months, and it was up to tonight. There are nearly [-] southern troops stationed in Zhuti City, which is two-thirds of the strength of the southern country. As long as they can win a battle, the entire southern country will be exposed to the front of Deng Jun.

"Zishi has passed, the 22nd year of Qianyuan has passed, and the 23rd year of Qianyuan has finally arrived, but what I didn't expect is that on the first day of the new year, we will start killing people. What a crime!" , Su Yun murmured, according to tradition, on the first day of the new year, no blood can be seen, no killing is allowed, but now they are going to welcome the new year with the blood of tens of thousands of southern troops.

"Does the military commander feel a little unbearable?" Deng Han, who was standing beside Su Yun, said to Su Yun.

Hearing Deng Han's words, Su Yun shook his head and said, "Master Hou, I'm not because I can't bear it, but because I'm feeling a little bit emotional, and Lord Hou laughed at me!"

Deng Han said: "But war is like this. For the sake of Deng, even if you offend the gods and devils in the sky, you won't care. This is the fate of our soldiers. It's about fighting against the sky. How can we care about these trivial matters?" ?”

Su Yun didn't expect that one day he would be taught a lesson by a boy who was more than ten years younger than him, so he was speechless. At this moment, a messenger came to Su Yun and Deng Han and said, "Master, military advisor, The general has an order, and the army sets out immediately!"

Deng Han and Su Yun nodded, put their minds together, and set off with the large army.

When Deng Jun quietly touched the Southern Army camp, except for a small group of patrolling soldiers, most of the Southern Army soldiers were asleep, and the patrolling soldiers were also very careless, showing no sign of Deng Jun's arrival. I realized that this gave Deng Jun an excellent opportunity.

after getting ready.Deng Zhong immediately ordered the army to launch an attack. The unsuspecting South Army camp was caught off guard, and was quickly broken by Deng Jun. All the defenseless generals drove straight in and started killing. Even the brothers Deng Han and Deng Yu were unwilling. behind.

"Enemy attack!" After some commotion, a soldier of the Southern Army finally came to his senses, and immediately sounded the drum to inform the whole army, but it was too late. How could the Nanjun who woke up like a dream be Deng Jun's opponent?The army was defeated in an instant. Since the generals of the Southern Army were celebrating the New Year at home, the Southern Army had no one to command them. Even though they reacted, it was nothing more than a mess.
