After receiving orders from Jiangdu Palace, Xue Rengui and Yang Rengong led 30,000 elite troops to Huainan, captured Lujiang County with thunderous force, and captured Du Fuwei's general Xu Shao'an.
After Du Fuwei heard the news that Xu Shaoan died in the battle after Lujiang County fell, he was furious and immediately ordered people to invite his sworn brothers, Fu Gongyou, and his adopted sons Wang Xiongdan and Que Leng to come to his Prince Wu Mansion to discuss matters.
Du Fuwei was a native of Zhangqiu County, Qi County. He was frustrated when he was young and had no business making a living. His family was too poor to support himself, so he often stole things by climbing over walls. In the ninth year of the Great Cause, Du Fuwei fled to the Changbai Mountain area, organized bandits, and led an uprising with his life-and-death brother Fu Guo'er. Then he defected to the more powerful rebel army Zuo Cai Xiangbu. Although he fought bravely, he did not get any success. The promotion of Zuo Caixiang.
In the tenth year of the Great Cause, Prime Minister Zuo Cai's troops were encircled and suppressed by the Sui army's famous generals Zhang Xutuo and Lai Hu'er. Du Fuwei sized up the situation and led his troops to fight in the Jianghuai area.
After moving to the Jianghuai area, Du Fuwei successively annexed Miao Haichao, Zhao Pozhen and other rebel army headquarters, greatly increasing his power, and consolidated Liuhe, threatening Jiangdu. He also defeated the Sui generals Song Hao, Gongsun Shangzhe, Chen Leng, etc. one after another. He claimed to be the general manager in Liyang, Huainan, with Fu Gong'er as his long history. He also merged the Jianghuai tribes and occupied the vast area between the Yangtze and Huaihe Rivers.
After Yang Guang's death, Du Fuwei believed that the Sui Dynasty was over, so he called himself King of Wu and made his capital Liyang. He appointed Fu Gongyou as the general, and his adopted sons Wang Xiongdan and Que Leng as the left and right generals. He had more than 60,000 troops and was the leader of Huainan. The largest force in the area.
Liyang, Prince Wu's Mansion.
Although Du Fuwei claimed to be the King of Wu, he was still dressed as a general. He sat behind the big case, looked around the generals in the room indifferently, and asked in a deep voice: "Sui General Xue Li led 30,000 elite Sui troops to attack us. Wu State, what do you think should be done?"
The general, Fu Gongyou Fusu, said: "I have heard that Xue Li is the master of Yang Gao, the young emperor of the Sui Dynasty who recently ascended the throne. I heard that he was brave enough to conquer the three armies and that his archery skills were superb. I have to be careful this time!" "
"Why does the general embolden the enemy's ambition and destroy his own prestige!" Wang Xiongdan said loudly, "Are there not many famous generals of the Sui army who have been defeated by us in recent years? Gongsun Shangzhe and Chen Leng, who are not known as good generals of the Sui Dynasty, are they not? He was beaten to a pulp by us, what's the big deal about Xue Li?"
"Brother is right!" Que Leng echoed, "I think Xue Li has such a reputation among the Sui army just because he is the teacher of the little emperor Yang Gao. If he really fights with real swords and guns, I chopped off his head with a knife!"
"Okay, okay, okay, my son is indeed brave!" Du Fuwei clapped his hands proudly and laughed, "With you here, why should I be afraid of Xue Li?"
Fu Gongyou looked at the complacent Du Fuwei, frowned slightly, and cautiously advised: "King Wu, I think we'd better be more cautious!"
"General, as you get older, why do you become less and less courageous?" Wang Xiongdan curled his lips disdainfully, raised his hands to Du Fuwei and said, "Father, my son is not talented, so I would like to raise an elite army. Taking advantage of the fact that Xue Li had just entered Huainan and was not yet stable, he attacked the Sui camp at night, beheaded Xue Li and presented it to his father!"
Not to be outdone, Que Leng raised his hands and asked for orders: "Father, I am willing to lend a helping hand to Brother Wang!"
Du Fuwei chuckled and said: "Okay, you two princes, I will give you fifteen thousand elite soldiers to attack the Sui camp at night, cut off the head of the traitor Xue Li, and give that little emperor Yang Gao a good show of strength!" "
Wang Xiongdan and Que Leng were overjoyed when they heard this. They raised their hands and said, "I accept your order!"
. . . . . . . . . .
The moon and stars are sparse, and the shadows of the trees are whirling.
The whooshing cold wind blew into the Sui army's camp, rolling the dead leaves all over the ground. There was a Xiaoxiao sharpness hidden in the wind, which was the special sharpness of the sharp edge.
Wang Xiongdan and Que Leng took fifteen thousand Wu soldiers with their titles and horses wrapped in hooves, and secretly approached the Sui army's camp under the cover of night.
When they were about to approach the village gate, there was a sudden sound of bangs, and ambushes suddenly appeared in the trenches, in the grass, and in the woods. The Sui army's crossbowmen, who had been lying in wait for a long time, showed their crossbows and fired thousands of arrows. The Wu army was immediately defeated. The shooting was so chaotic.
"No, the Sui army is ready, retreat quickly!" Wang Xiongdan turned pale when he saw this and roared loudly.
"You fool, you were ambushed by my Governor Xue and you still want to leave?"
Wang Xiongdan turned his horse and ran no more than a few hundred steps away. There were loud shouts of killing in front of him. A group of army horses came out from the thorn slope and blocked Wang Xiongdan's retreat. The leader of the general was riding a yellow gelding, holding a gold-backed seven-star sword in his hand. , eight feet five inches tall, with a voice like thunder and a face like a bell, he is Chang Yuchun, the most powerful general of the Ming Dynasty who was born not long ago.
"How dare a nobody block my way?"
Wang Xiongdan was blocked by Chang Yuchun, and he became furious. He urged his horse and wielded his sword to attack Chang Yuchun.
"Ha, I just want to use your head as a promotion to a certain family!"
Chang Yuchun laughed proudly, clapped his horse and charged forward. The two horses crossed each other, but it was only three times. Chang Yuchun showed his weakness and killed Wang Xiongdan under the horse with one knife.
"Ding dong, it is detected that Chang Yuchun Formation killed Wang Xiongdan. Wang Xiongdan's ability is four-dimensional, with a command level of 78, a force level of 83, an intelligence level of 62, and a politics level of 60. The host has obtained 8 soul points, and the current total number of soul points has increased to 23."
"Brother!"
Seeing Wang Xiongdan's tragic death, Que Leng's eyes spit fire, and he brandished his sword and attacked Chang Yuchun, "I want you to pay for your brother's life!"
"Let me send you to meet your brother!"
Chang Yuchunhu roared, and the golden-backed seven-star sword in his hand slashed towards Que Leng's neck like lightning.
Poof!
There was a flash of cold light, and a streak of blood flashed through Chang Yuchun's eyeballs. Que's big head flew into the sky, and his huge body crashed to the ground. Blood was everywhere on the ground.
"Ding dong, the Chang Yuchun formation has been detected. Que Leng, the commander is 62, the force is 71, the intelligence is 51, and the politics is 49. The host has obtained 7 soul points, and the current total soul points have increased to 30."
The two generals died in battle one after another, and the remaining troops had no intention of fighting anymore because they were intercepted in front and pursued by soldiers. Soon they were defeated and their morale collapsed. They surrendered one after another, knelt down and begged for mercy, "We are willing to surrender, we are willing to surrender, please don't kill!"
Xue Rengui stepped forward and whispered to Chang Yuchun: "Chang Yuchun, you immediately lead your troops to pretend to be the defeated Wu army and rush to Liyang, pretending to open the city gate. Then I will lead the main force to come to meet you. !”
"I will obey your orders!" Chang Yuchun cupped his fists and said in a deep voice.
"Be careful!" Xue Rengui patted Chang Yuchun on the shoulder, "You are a rare general. If you destroy Du Fuwei this time, I will definitely recommend you to His Majesty!"
Chang Yuchun was overjoyed when he heard this and raised his hands in thanks: "Thank you so much, General, for your appreciation!"
