In the capital of Linyi, after receiving the news of the defeat of the war elephant, the atmosphere was extremely depressed and tense. There were fewer pedestrians on the streets and the defense on the city walls became more stringent. Linyi soldiers were even more worried. Many Linyi people fled from the city of Rinan quietly and took refuge in the jungle.

In the Royal Palace of Sunancheng, Ruan Linfu, the fat king of Linyi, sat on the throne, frowning.

The Elephant Army was the support of Ruan Linfu. After the Elephant Army was defeated, it would be strange if Ruan Linfu could be happy! The important town of Linyi Kingdom, Bitun, was lost, and the elephant soldiers who were working hard were easily defeated. Now Gao Shun's army has arrived at the city and is about to launch an attack on the city.

People in the city of Rinan were panic, and Ruan Linfu was even more suspicious. He always felt that some subjects looked strange and seemed to be whispering non-stop, but he just didn't know what to say?

Ruan Linfu summoned his ministers to discuss dealing with him. After studying for a long time, he couldn't find out what was going on. This made Ruan Linfu extremely depressed. Ruan Linfu once sent ministers out of the city to negotiate with Gao Shun's army, but the envoys sent did not even see Gao Shun's face. Gao Shun just asked his subordinates to tell the envoy that Ruan Linfu must surrender unconditionally so that he could save his life.

Ruan Linfu finally founded the Linyi Kingdom and had to surrender in just a few years to make the established kingdom disappear. This made Ruan Linfu unacceptable, so he had to lead his troops to resist tenaciously.

Ruan Linfu did not surrender, and Gao Shun certainly would not give Ruan Linfu the time to prepare. After breakfast the next day, Gao Shun's army immediately took action, and all kinds of siege equipment were launched. Cast stone chariots, crossbow beds, crossbow chariots, crossbow cannons and other siege weapons were arranged along the Rinan City. Gao Shun's soldiers were murderous intent, lined up in neat formations, waiting for the order to siege the city.

Seeing that the threatening methods were not effective, Gao Shun's eyes shot out a bloodthirsty light and looked fiercely at the Sunnan City Wall.

Gao Shundao: "Prepare to attack the city!"

Just as Gao Shun was about to order the siege, suddenly a gap was opened in the Rinan city gate, and a small official ran out of the city gate, holding up the white flag with both hands, and shouting loudly in his mouth: "Surrender! Surrender! We surrender!"

When Gao Shun saw this, he smiled and muttered in a low voice: "Grandma!"

Then the gate of the Rinan City opened wide, and the King of Linlinyi Ruan Linfu left the city to surrender. Gao Shun was polite with Ruan Linfu. After the gate opened, Sun Li led his army to immediately enter the city, take over all the defenses in the city, and take over the soldiers of Linyi Kingdom in the city.

In the next few days, Gao Shunda Gao dissolved the army of Linyi Kingdom, and immediately started work with civilian officials of the army, looted the valuable things first, and sent them back to Jinyang with transport ships as soon as possible. This matter is too important, not only related to the benefits of the soldiers participating in the war, but also involves the rewards of external conquests.

Under the urgency, Ruan Linfu issued various orders and sent people to the areas under the jurisdiction of Linyi State. In all the towns and villages under the jurisdiction of Linyi State, they sent people to announce their orders to surrender to Gao Shun's army.

Although Linyi King Ruan Linfu surrendered and issued various surrender documents, there were also Linyi people who were unwilling to surrender, such as Wang Er, the general who escaped from Bitun City, was unwilling to surrender. He heard that King Ruan Linfu surrendered to Gao Shun's army, Wang Er did take some of his subordinates to Xicang City.

The lord of Xicang City, Liu Gui, once made a fortune in trade with the Han Dynasty. He had a lot of property and also learned the culture of the Han Dynasty. He was also influenced by the traditional Confucianism of the Han Dynasty. Liu Gui himself had great insights. He heard that King Ruan Linfu surrendered without fighting and was extremely angry. He immediately convened relevant people from the big households, merchants, army and other fields in Xicang City to hold a meeting for research. After the research, everyone unanimously decided to fight against Gao Shunjun to the end.

Xi Cang borders Funan Kingdom (located today's Cambodia to the southern end of Vietnam), with a large unbounded area in the middle. What are those areas? They are all primeval forests, which store countless precious woods and spices. After being sold to the Han Dynasty, the price is like gold. To put it bluntly, it is a treasure land of abundant water.

For their respective economic interests, Linyi and Funan countries had frictions and small conflicts continued one after another. The officers and soldiers of the two countries fought countless small-scale battles over the past decades, and many people died.

The lord of Xicang City, Liu Gui, did not accept surrender, Gao Shun immediately ordered Sun Li to lead 5,000 Marine soldiers to clear the situation, while Gao Shun sat in the Sunnan City to handle various affairs.

Sun Li rode a tall horse, walked arrogantly in the middle of the team, and casually said to the guide beside him: "How far can you reach Xicang City?"

The guide replied respectfully: "It's more than fifty kilometers away!"

Linyi Country is vast and sparsely populated, with dense forests and difficult to walk on the roads. However, Sun Li led the Marines. During training, Gao Shun often conducted jungle cross-country marches. At this time, he didn't feel that the marching was too difficult.

Sun Li's army walked more than ten miles and arrived at an important place. He heard the alarm from the scouts in front of him.

A moment later, the scout came to report: "General, there is an ambush!"

"Ji! Ji! Ji!"

The sharp whistle kept roaring.

The scouts under Sun Li's army were all veterans with the most reconnaissance experience, sharp swordsmen, and were equipped with excellent hunting dogs around him. They had a very sensitive sense of smell. Linyi people were ambushed and had insufficient experience and were too close to him. The hunting dogs who followed the scouts to investigate were smelled. The hunting dogs immediately made a big fuss, alarming the scouts. The scouts immediately grabbed the whistle hanging between their necks and blew the sirens.

Because the distance was close and an emergency occurred, it caught Sun Lijun off guard. Sun Lijun immediately fell into an unprecedentedly dangerous close contact. Linyi people in the dense forest rushed out from all directions. They held swords and spears, and a small number of Linyi people wore leather armor and rushed towards Sun Li's army with their heads.

The terrain in this area is extremely unfavorable. Although the road is not very narrow, it is twisty and turns. It cannot meet at the beginning and end. It cannot gather in formation to fight in formation. It can only fight on its own and at most it can form a small gate flower formation to meet the enemy.

Seeing that the situation had changed, Sun Li immediately jumped off the war horse. If he didn't get off the war horse quickly, Sun Li would be as eye-catching as his inflamed thumbs, and there would be countless archers from Linyi people aimed at him, waiting for the arrows with the raindrops to slam the hats on Sun Li's body.

Sun Li stepped forward as soon as he got off the war horse, waving the short spear in his hand, and stabbed the enemy with the sharp tips. Three Linyi soldiers fell under Sun Li's spear.

The Marine soldiers under Lu Ning have been rigorously trained and countless times of actual combat. They are definitely a well-trained elite marine team. Although the 5,000 Marine soldiers led by Sun Li have been attacked, they have rich experience in fighting. The soldiers immediately moved closer to their nearby comrades, gathered in groups, and turned into small Liuhua round formations to avoid being divided and surrounded by the enemy, and then rolled around to annihilate the Linyi people.

In the Little Liuhua Round Formation, auxiliary troops such as military doctors and crossbow archers are protected.

On a lush green jungle, there was unprecedented chaos at this time, with sounds of anger during battles everywhere, which was extremely noisy. The people of Linyi were extremely furious. Facing Sun Lijun's strong counterattack, they did not shrink at all, and charged forward desperately.

The bravery and diligence of the Linyi people, for a moment, even a brave general like Sun Li could not move forward or break through the human defense line composed of Linyi people. The number of corpses of Linyi people around Sun Li continued to increase, so many that it blocked Sun Li's attack, making it difficult to move away.

Sun Li waved his short spear and cursed the enemy in annoyance. At this time, Sun Li had completely lost command of the entire army and could only go with the flow and kill wherever he went. In the face of such a situation, Sun Li felt helpless, and it was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

In a short while, the Linyi people with superior forces divided the entire Sun Li army into sections and tried to divide and annihilate it.

Linyi was full of morale, brave in fighting, and did not hesitate to any casualties, nor did he die. He rushed forward bravely at Sun Li's army. This is not surprising, after all, the people of Linyi fought for their homes, women and children.

The soldiers under Sun Li's command absolutely have obvious advantages in terms of physical strength, battlefield adaptability, melee skills, etc. Although the Linyi people were huge and fierce, each of the small six-flowered round formations of Sun Li's army was like pieces of stones. The Linyi people's attacks were like waves, wave after wave, but they could never break through the Sun Li's defense line.
