Chapter 199: The War in Nanyang

After ending the call with Liu Bian, Guan Yu said to the stunned Guan Hai:

"Guan Hai, you have heard His Majesty's decree, haven't you!"

After hearing Guan Yu's words, Guan Hai came back to his senses.

Immediately, his eyes toward Guan Yu and the others were filled with awe.

Such heaven-defying means were truly unheard of.

"General Guan, this commoner heard clearly!"

Seeing this, Guan Yu also nodded with satisfaction.

Wasn't the reason he contacted Liu Bian on the spot to intimidate Guan Hai!

Judging from Guan Hai's performance just now, the effect was clearly very good.

"Since that is the case, I will go to Rencheng Kingdom in three days to accept your surrender!"

Immediately, Guan Yu said to Guan Hai with a grave expression.

"Please rest assured, General Guan, this commoner will go back immediately and tell the Sage Maiden this good news!"

After hearing Guan Yu's words, Guan Hai was overjoyed.

He immediately said to Guan Yu gravely.

Meanwhile, Huang Zhong also arrived at the city gates of Ye County in Nanyang Commandery.

"General Huang, let this general go and challenge them!"

Zhuque Army general Wen Chou said to Huang Zhong.

At this time, Ye County City had already been surrounded by the twenty thousand Zhuque Legion troops.

"That's fine, you can go and try!"

"However, that Li Feng will most likely not dare to come out of the city to fight!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Zhong did not stop him.

He just reminded him.

"This general accepts the order!"

Upon hearing this, Wen Chou cupped his hands to Huang Zhong and arrived below the city walls.

However, after he cursed for a long time, Li Feng on the city walls simply would not come out to fight.

"Pah, this Li Feng is truly a coward!"

After failing, Wen Chou returned to the formation and cursed.

"Hahaha, isn't that obvious?"

"With so many of us, as long as Li Feng isn't stupid, he won't come out of the city!"

Hearing Wen Chou's words, Xiahou Dun immediately said with a laugh.

"Alright, tell the soldiers, in half a quarter-hour, if Li Feng still doesn't surrender, we attack the city!"

At this time, Huang Zhong also said to the generals.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the few responded loudly and gravely.

Inside Ye County City.

"General, my lord has not sent reinforcements to support us."

"We only have five thousand men; this simply cannot block Huang Zhong's twenty thousand Zhuque Legion troops!"

At this time, the deputy general said to Li Feng anxiously.

"That's right, General, with just our five thousand men, how is this possible!"

"This is clearly wanting us to die!"

Others on the side also said to Li Feng.

Hearing the words of the crowd, Li Feng's already ugly face became even uglier.

"You are right. Yuan Shu, that old man, I was still fighting for him here."

"Since he is heartless, don't blame us for being unrighteous!"

Li Feng's face turned fierce, and he said to the crowd with full malice:

"Since Yuan Shu doesn't want us to live, then we will do it once and for all and surrender directly to Huang Zhong!"

Li Feng's subordinates, upon hearing his words, all revealed looks of joy.

"General is right. Since Yuan Shu doesn't care about our lives, then we will surrender to the imperial court!"

"Yes, surrender!"

And at this time, Huang Zhong also arrived below the city and shouted loudly to Li Feng in Ye County City:

"Li Feng, I will give you another half a quarter-hour. If you do not surrender after half a quarter-hour, I will order the army to attack the city!"

After Huang Zhong finished speaking, he wanted to leave.

Just then, Li Feng suddenly poked his head out from the city walls and shouted loudly to Huang Zhong:

"General Huang, this general is willing to submit to the imperial court!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Zhong's footsteps stopped.

He turned to look at Li Feng on the city walls and shouted:

"Li Feng, are your words true?"

Upon hearing this, Li Feng immediately replied:

"General Huang, to tell you the truth, Yuan Shu actually told us five thousand men to resist your twenty thousand troops."

"This is clearly wanting us to die!"

"Therefore, this general is willing to submit to General Huang!"

Subsequently, Li Feng led his men to open the city gates and surrendered to Huang Zhong.

And at this time, the person sent by Yuan Shu happened to see this scene.

He was so scared that he turned and ran.

He had to tell Yuan Shu about this immediately.

And Li Feng and the others, only at close range, felt the power of the Zhuque Army.

He felt that every one of these twenty thousand Zhuque Legion soldiers had an aura stronger than his own.

Immediately, he asked Huang Zhong in disbelief:

"General Huang, how come this general feels that the auras of these soldiers are all stronger than this general?"

Hearing Li Feng's words, Huang Zhong and the others all smiled.

"Your feeling is not wrong. My Zhuque Legion, all twenty thousand men, have the strength of First-rate Martial Generals or above."

"How is this possible?"

Upon hearing this, Li Feng was shocked.

"There is nothing impossible. Presumably, you should have heard about martial arts."

"Now, the soldiers of the six great legions of our Great Han Empire have all cultivated martial arts and all have the strength of First-rate Martial Generals."

"Hiss..."

Li Feng was already shocked to the point of numbness.

Calculating this way, soldiers with the strength of First-rate Martial Generals...

That would be over one million.

What a powerful force this was!

"You don't need to worry. All soldiers of our Great Han Empire can cultivate martial arts techniques."

"In a while, I will have someone pass down the cultivation techniques to you."

At this time, Huang Zhong said to Li Feng.

Upon hearing this, Li Feng hurriedly thanked him:

"This general thanks the general!"

At this moment, he was very fortunate that he chose to surrender.

Otherwise, he truly dared not imagine the consequences.

After the group entered Ye County City, Huang Zhong pushed out the civil official dispatched by Xun Yu.

He also appointed Li Feng as the guard general of Ye County.

He continued to lead the army to kill toward Wan County, where Yuan Shu was located.

As for Li Feng, after witnessing the power of the imperial army, Huang Zhong did not think he would rebel.

Moreover, the civil officials of the Great Han Empire also possessed cultivation.

Although their combat power was not as strong as the martial generals',

they were not something Li Feng, with the strength of a Second-rate Martial General, could resist.

Meanwhile, the fifty thousand navy troops led by Gan Ning had also entered the Yangtze River.

In a few days, they would reach the border of Xiangyang.

By then, what awaited Yuan Shu would be a pincer attack from the water and land armies.

And at this time, Zhang Liao's Xuanwu Legion had also finally crossed Yuzhou.

And arrived at Lujiang Commandery in Yangzhou.

On the way, he had already received news from Taishi Ci.

Wu Commandery had already been taken by Taishi Ci.

The two discussed and decided to attack south from Lujiang Commandery, Jiujiang Commandery, Danyang Commandery, and Wu Commandery in the north.

As for Liu Yao's Yangzhou navy, that would be handled by Taishi Ci's fifty thousand Great Han navy troops.

Although Liu Yao had one hundred thousand Yangzhou navy troops under his command,

their warships and soldier strength

were not as powerful as Taishi Ci's Great Sea Navy.

Moreover, Taishi Ci had already taken Wu Commandery.

Thus, the Yangzhou navy no longer posed a threat to Zhang Liao.

After the most important Yangtze River in Yangzhou and Jingzhou was settled,

the rest was just the infantry attacking cities and seizing strongholds. ===== CHAPTER 200 =====
