"However, Hu Chong in Lin County is also a little troublesome. I hope he will be wiser and let himself out of the city."
Wu young man shook his head lightly, and after pondering for a while, he shook his head, let the soldiers go down, lay down again, and continued to sleep.
It's important to recharge your batteries.
Wu Nian slept extremely soundly. He didn't get up until the rooster crowed the next morning. After washing up, he went to the outhouse and ate breakfast.
Although he is leading the troops outside now, this is a city after all, with abundant food. The soldiers still prepared a sumptuous breakfast.
There is braised pork, boiled eggs, a duck, half a roast lamb and some vegetables.
Wu Nian finished eating like a storm, walked out of the door, and was about to take a walk to eat. The soldiers came in from outside with Chen Zhong.
Wu Nian's eyes lit up and he asked, "Mr. Chen. How do you answer Hu Chong?"
Chen Zhong was dusty and looked a little haggard. He cupped his hands and saluted and said, "Report to the general. That Hu Chong is a madman. He said it was a human head on his neck, so he asked the general to get it himself."
Wu Nian squinted his eyes, feeling a little emotional. No matter what, Cao Ting died in the rebellion.
Wu Chongguang was a loyal minister.
Unexpectedly, this Hu Chong was also a loyal minister. Although the state of Chu is in ruins, it still has three kilograms of iron. What a pity, what a pity.
"I understand. You've had a hard journey, sir. Go down and rest." Wu Nian nodded and waved.
"Yes." Chen Zhong was just a civil servant and did not dare to say more. He clasped his fists and turned around to leave.
After Wu Nian stood for a while, he took a step forward and continued walking to eat. After a while, Wu Nian heard the sound of rapid footsteps. Looking back, he saw Zhang Jin and Liu Wu walking over, each wearing a battle jacket and holding on to the hilt of a knife at his waist.
Wu Nian turned around and stood still, looking at the two of them with a smile.
"General."
The two of them stood still, bent down and cupped their fists towards Wu Nian.
"Brothers, come here together, what's the matter?" Wu Nian put his hands behind his back. Although he was asking, his tone was firm, and he guessed the purpose of the two.
"General. That Hu Chong is so arrogant. Please allow us to lead tens of thousands of elite troops and go south to attack Lin County. Cut off Hu Chong's head and present it to the general."
Zhang Jin showed an angry face and said decisively.
"That's right. Little Hu Chong doesn't need the general to take action. We'll be even." Liu Wu nodded heavily and clasped his fists.
Feng Chong defeated Wang Zhongbi. This news made the two of them a little stimulated. That bastard must be so proud right now.
They also wanted to kill Hu Chong so that they could gain face.
"I know what you are thinking. But there is no need for it." Wu Nian waved his hand with a smile, turned his head and looked around, then walked to sit on the bench in the corridor next to him.
Zhang Jin and Liu Wu were confused when they heard this. They followed him from left to right and sat opposite Wu Nian.
"General, please give me your instructions." Zhang Jin cupped his fists and saluted.
"This Hu Chong is a loyal minister. He was originally a trouble. But now I have killed Cao Ting, and Feng Chong has defeated Wang Zhongbi. His internal and external reinforcements have been cut off. Hu Chong is determined to die, but what about the others? I don't think so. I would be willing to die with him."
"There is no need for a large army to conquer him. Just wait and see for a few days. I think someone will kill Hu Chong soon and cut off his head and give it to me."
Wu Nian had a look of confidence on his face and said with a smile.
Let’s not talk about the generals first. Just say that those soldiers who were exploited by Wang Zhongbi were willing to follow Hu Chong and serve the Chu Kingdom?
Wu Nian didn't believe it.
"This!!!" Zhang Jin and Liu Wu looked at each other and saw the word "bad luck" in each other's eyes.
Wu Nian's analysis seemed to the two of them to be very reasonable. But on the other hand, there is no need for them to appear. What a pity, what a pity.
"Don't be discouraged. Let's all go down and rest. After we kill Hu Chong, there will be another battle with Wang Zhongbi. After we capture the Nanhai Mansion, there may be another battle with the Mengyuan people. Don't worry about the head of this Hu Chong. He has made many achievements. Chance."
Seeing the two of them dejected, Wu Nian couldn't help but smile.
"Yes." Zhang Jin and Liu Wu suddenly trembled and became energetic. They responded loudly, then stood up and said goodbye to Wu Nian, turned around and left.
"Other than its large size, Chu State has no other advantages. How can people like Wang Zhongbi and Xiong Wuwo defeat me?" Wu Nian looked at Zhang Jin and Liu Wu's leaving figures and was very proud of his brothers. He sneered and said.
............
late at night.
Lin County City, inside the mansion occupied by Hu Chong. Hu Chong tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
"Hey." Hu Chong sighed and sat up cross-legged. He knew that his death was not far away. Unless a general has a high prestige, he can lead his soldiers to death and survive.
But he has no such prestige.
Dragging everyone to death will result in backlash.
Wu Nian also saw this clearly, so he didn't attack.
"Although during these days, Cao Ting and I have become close to Wang Zhongbi. But in our hearts, we all deeply disapprove of Wang Zhongbi. This money-grubbing guy can't compare to a finger of General Xiong."
"If General Xiong were here, how could our army's fighting spirit be so fragile? Even if we lose, we won't lose so ugly."
Hu Chong clenched his fists tightly, with a scowl on his face. Then he let out a long sigh, and his scowl turned into desolation.
"kill!!!!!!"
"Ahhhh!!!"
At this moment, a loud roar sounded outside. Then, the screams continued. After a while, a soldier broke in from the outside and reported in panic: "General. Someone is causing trouble. Kill them in."
"You all put down your weapons and don't resist. You can still survive." Without any surprise, Hu Chong waved his hand and let the soldiers go.
He got out of bed by himself and wanted to put on his shoes, but he thought that he was going to die and it didn't matter whether he wore shoes or not. He bent down and took out a delicate wooden box from under the bed, opened it, and took out a porcelain bottle.
"Hey." Hu Chong sighed, uncorked the bottle, and drank the liquid inside. Soon after, he began to bleed from all his orifices and lay on the bed.
After a while, the rebel soldiers arrived at Hu Chong's bedroom. After seeing this scene, a general stepped forward and cut off Hu Chong's head.
...........
"drive!!!"
"Da da da!!!"
On the road leading to Huping County. A group of ten cavalrymen galloped towards Huping County. One of the cavalrymen had a large wooden box tied to the back of his horse.
Soon after, they entered the city.
A large house, inside the main room. Wu Nian sat on the main seat, followed by Zhang Jin, Liu Wu and twenty thousand households.
On the coffee table next to Wu Nian, there was an open wooden box, and inside it was Hu Chong's head.
"Both Hu Chong and Cao Ting have been defeated. Next is Wang Zhongbi. He divided the troops of five thousand households, gathered the surrendered troops of Hu Chong and Cao Ting, and sent them to Jiang County and handed them over to Liu Zhixing. The rest of the soldiers followed. I’ll set off together.”
"Rendezvous with Feng Chong first, then attack Wang Zhongbi."
"Take Nanhai Mansion."
Wu Nian took a deep breath, and then finished speaking, his eyes were extremely sharp and his tone was decisive.
