    Sun Lang was about to enter the city when he saw the peace at the city gate.

    Suddenly, I heard a series of rapid horse hooves behind me, and the man was still shouting something, but he was far away and could not hear clearly.

    However, after this hesitation, Sun Lang finally stopped outside the city and did not enter the city immediately.

    The man rushed forward for another distance, and the shouts in his mouth were finally heard clearly.

    "General, retreat quickly! The navy has been destroyed, and there are changes in the city!"

    Sun Lang's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly ordered the entire army to be on alert.

    Ling Tong, who was hiding in the dark, saw Sun Lang's performance and didn't know where he had made any mistakes, but he was discovered by the other party.

    In this case, he no longer hid and finally rushed out.

    "The enemy will die!"

    Ling Tong shouted loudly and slashed at Sun Lang with his sword.

    Because Sun Lang defeated Ling Tong for the first time, he actually still despised him in his heart.

    However, when Ling Tong's sword fell on his head, Sun Lang hurriedly blocked it, but felt his arms suddenly shake, and a numbness suddenly hit his body.

    His expression finally changed.

    Only now do I realize that my initial victory was most likely due to the other party¡¯s deliberate concession.

    Sun Lang is a straightforward person, able to take things and put them down.

    Since Wudang has been lost and the troops in his hands are no match for Ling Tong, there is no point in continuing to struggle.

    So, he made a feint and took advantage of the opportunity to turn around and run away.

    Ling Tong pursued for a while and saw that he was already very deep into Jingzhou and was afraid of being besieged by the enemy.

    So I had to give up on Sun Lang and return to Wudang City again.

    After Ling Tong completely took over Wudang City, he finally received news that Liu Ke¡¯s large army was coming.

    Ling Tong was shocked and immediately went out of the city to greet him.

    Liu Ke was very happy when he heard that Ling Tong had captured Jingzhou and couldn't help praising him.

    For Liu Ke, this Wudang City is more than just the first city in Jingzhou.

    Because all the way from Hanzhong, after leaving the Hanzhong Plain, there are high mountains and steep mountains, and the road is rugged and difficult to navigate.

    And due to the obstacles of mountains, it is difficult for cities to defend each other, and even transporting grain and grass is quite laborious.

    "But Wudang City was the first city at the junction of Jingzhou and Hanzhong. Since then, the mountains have gradually become flatter.

    Going further in, you will reach the Nanyang Basin, so Wudang City has a very important position, and it was immediately used as a base for Liu Xuan's expedition against Sun Ce.

    The grain and grass transported from Hanzhong can be stored here and then supplied to each army separately.

    Therefore, Liu Ke attached great importance to this place, and as soon as he arrived, he began to order his men to start repairing it.

    At the same time, Liu Ke was also discussing the next battle plan in the hall.

    In fact, there is no need to discuss it at all, because if you enter Jingzhou from Wudang, you will reach Fuxian County and Yinxian County, which is less than ten miles away.

    These two county towns are located exactly at the intersection of Hanshui River and Junshui River. From there, going south, you can directly reach Xiangyang, the important town in Jingzhou.

    And if you go north, you can directly threaten the back of Sun Ce's army under Wuguan.

    So strategic value is very important.

    However, Sun Ce also attached great importance to this place and sent General Cheng Pu to guard it.

    Liu Ke was also very cautious about this place, because he understood that as long as Fuxian County and Yinxian County were lost.

    Sun Ce, who was still attacking at Wuguan, was instantly cut off from his contact with the rear and his supply of food and grass.

    By then, even if Sun Ce succeeds in defeating Wuguan, he will surely fall into a situation where he is unable to succeed.

    Therefore, Liu Ke concluded that as long as there was a loss here, Sun Ce would definitely withdraw his troops, and the danger of Wuguan would be resolved.

    This choice is much simpler than traveling all the way to Wuguan.

    Therefore, Liu Ke decided to immediately launch a fierce attack on Fuxian and Yin counties.

    At the same time, Sun Lang fled all night and finally escaped to Fuxian County.

    At this moment, Cheng Pu was in the mansion. Hearing Sun Lang's arrival, he hurried out to greet him.

    However, when he saw the other party's embarrassed look, he was stunned for an instant.

    "Little General, why is this?"

    Cheng Pu was originally a senior general of Sun Lang's father, Sun Jian, so he always called his youngest son "Little General".

    Sun Lang, who grew up in the military, also has a close relationship with Cheng Pu.

      He immediately cried and said: "Uncle Demou, Wudang City is lost!"

    "What?" Cheng Pu was shocked and couldn't help shouting.

    ¡° Then Sun Lang told the whole story of the loss, and he didn¡¯t even hide anything about how he fell into the trap.

    After hearing the description, Cheng Pu frowned.

    After a long while, he finally said: "This Ling Tong is really not to be underestimated!"

    "You, do you know him?"

    Cheng Pu shook his head and said: "I have only heard of his father Ling Cao before. Ling Cao was light and courageous, and he was considered a famous general in Wuzhong.

    However, he later died under an enemy arrow. Later, his followers did not disperse, but all elected Ling Tong to succeed him.

    From this we can also see Ling Tong¡¯s strength.  Now that I see him, he seems to be even better than his father!  Don't underestimate the enemy!  "

    Unexpectedly, Cheng Pu admired Ling Tong so much, which made Sun Lang, who always thought highly of himself, feel a little jealous.

    He thought that Ling Tong was not much older than him and yet he was so famous.

    But I haven¡¯t gained much popularity yet, so my competitiveness has been aroused again.

    Sun Lang suddenly stood up and gave a big salute to Cheng Pu.

    This kind of performance frightened Cheng Pu, and he kept saying: "Why is this, little general? It's embarrassing for me!"

    Sun Lang said seriously: "Uncle Demou, my nephew accidentally lost Wudang today, and I will be severely punished according to the law.

    I am not afraid of military law, I just don¡¯t want to see the city fall into enemy hands.  Please ask my uncle to lend me 10,000 troops so that I can recover the lost territory!  "

    Seeing Sun Lang's performance like this, Cheng Pu felt relieved, as if he had seen the heroic appearance of the late Sun Jian.

    So after a brief hesitation, he finally nodded in agreement.

    "Okay! Young general. I agree to your request, but young general must be careful during this trip and don't show off.

    If things change, return to Fuxian County quickly!  "

    Hearing this, Sun Lang nodded cautiously and saluted Cheng Pu again, thanking him for lending troops.

    Afterwards, Sun Lang no longer hesitated and took the token given by Cheng Pu to the military camp to order troops.

    Half an hour later, he took the borrowed 10,000 troops and the 5,000 soldiers and horses in his own hands to attack 15,000 people and marched towards Wudang City.

    Sun Lang had seen Ling Tong's formation before, and the opponent's total number of troops was less than 10,000.

    And some of them were allocated to guard the prisoners, so there were even fewer people who could defend the city.

    So he was very confident that he would be able to capture and conquer Wudang due to his superior strength.

    But Sun Lang never expected that Ling Tong's army was just the vanguard of Liu Ke's large army.

    Sun Lang didn¡¯t see the real army at all, until he led the team to the outside of the city, he was stunned for an instant.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
