"Liu Bei... is a traitor. I... I have been ordered by the Emperor of Wei to attack you."
"If...if...you know the truth, surrender the city quickly!"
Deng Ai shouted loudly.
Zhang Fei on the top of the city glanced at Liu Bei, and Liu Bei nodded slightly.
Zhang Fei stepped forward knowingly and said disdainfully,
"How dare you, a little stammerer, come to call for formation?"
"Could it be that there is no one left in Cao Wei's army, so he sent this little stammer like you out?"
Although Yang Ling, Jiang Wei and others would occasionally make fun of Deng Ai's stuttering, they were Deng Ai's teachers and brothers.
How could Deng Ai endure being laughed at by outsiders for his stuttering?
He suddenly became furious,
"You...you ring-eyed thief, if you have the ability...come out of the city and fight me to the death!"
If it were normal times, Zhang Fei would have marched out of the city and would have fought Deng Ai for 300 rounds.
But now that Liu Bei, Fazheng and others were there, Zhang Fei could not act impulsively and had to mock,
"If you have the guts, come up here and see if I don't poke ten thousand transparent holes in you!"
"Okay, just... I'll wait, don't run away if you have the guts!"
Deng Ai didn't talk nonsense to Zhang Fei, turned his horse and returned to his own camp.
"Young man, you're just a little stammerer and you still want to talk to me!"
Zhang Fei said proudly,
"Brother, I scolded him away!"
But to his surprise, Liu Bei was not happy, but frowned.
"Brother, why are you frowning?"
Zhang Fei said strangely.
"General Yide, you...see for yourself..."
Fazheng said, pointing to the Wei army outside the city.
Several roads were separated among the Wei army, and ten artillery pieces were slowly pushed out.
Seeing this situation, everyone in Shu Han took a breath of cold air.
At this moment, they all realized that the Wei army had probably been waiting for the artillery from the rear to arrive!
"The city is in danger. Your Majesty, please retreat quickly!"
Chen Dao said quickly.
He followed Liu Bei and saw the power of artillery with his own eyes.
"Walk!"
Liu Bei didn't hesitate at all and ran towards the city.
People like Fazheng and Deng Zhi, who had just joined Liu Bei's camp not long ago, had never seen artillery, but they had also heard of its devastating power.
Therefore, they all followed Liu Bei and retreated towards the city in a hurry!
Only Meng Huo, Meng You and other barbarians were still standing stupidly on the city wall.
"Strange, why did your majesty come down the city wall now?"
"Are they afraid of the Wei army?"
"I do not know."
Mrs. Zhu Rong frowned and said coldly,
"Even His Majesty the Han Dynasty has escaped, why are we still staying on the city wall?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and got off the city wall.
"Brother, my sister-in-law is giving you less and less face now."
Meng You whispered.
"This bitch! I want her to know how powerful I am!"
Meng Huo became angry when he remembered that he had not touched Mrs. Zhu Rong for a while.
However, at this moment, the Wei army outside the city had completed its debugging, and the artillery began to roar!
"Rumble..."
Accompanied by a roar like rolling thunder, several cannonballs roared in and hit the city gate tower heavily.
In an instant, bricks and stones were smashed, and sawdust flew everywhere.
The two barbarian soldiers beside Meng Huo were killed by falling bricks and stones on the spot!
Seeing such a terrifying scene, all the Southern Barbarians were shocked!
No wonder Liu Bei and the others ran away without any shame.
The power of the Wei army's artillery was so terrifying!
"Why are you still standing there, run away!"
Meng Huo called to his clansmen and fled under the city wall.
The rest of the Southern Barbarians came to their senses and followed him closely, escaping down the city wall.
Everyone in Shu Han fled the city wall and returned to the city hall to hold urgent discussions.
"Your Majesty, now that the Wei army has artillery, I'm afraid they won't be able to defend Fucheng alone!"
Chen Dao said in a deep voice.
"Then what should we do? Can we just retreat?"
Liu Bei looked at Fazheng helplessly.
Fazheng also had a headache. Facing such a powerful Wei army, he had no choice.
"In any case, Your Majesty, it's better to leave here first."
Fa Zheng advised.
"Oh, that's fine, I'll just listen to Mr. Xiao Nao."
Liu Bei sighed and nodded in agreement.
After a while, the Shu Han troops gathered up their troops, escorted Liu Bei, and left Fucheng in a hurry.
Let’s talk about the Wei army outside the city.
Although there are only ten artillery pieces, Fucheng is not as strong as Luoyang and Chang'an.
Under the constant bombardment, not long after noon, a part of the city wall collapsed.
Yang Ling ordered his men to aim at the gap and continue to blast.
Before long, the city wall completely collapsed.
When the dust in the sky fell, an angry Deng Ai took the lead and rushed into the city.
"Where is the ring-eyed thief? Come out and fight me to the death!"
However, Zhang Fei had already fled with Liu Bei, leaving only the old, weak, sick and disabled!
Deng Ai held a spear and turned into a god of death and charged into the Shu army. Wherever he went, there was no enemy at all.
Seeing how brave he was, the Shu Han soldiers who stayed behind dropped their weapons and chose to surrender!
In just an hour, Fucheng fell into the hands of the Wei army.
After the Wei army took control of the situation, Yang Ling slowly led the army into the city.
"Teacher, Liu Bei's guy... escaped again!"
Deng Ai said reluctantly with some regret.
Yang Ling, who had fought against Liu Bei for many years and witnessed his countless escapes, was very tolerant and even comforted Deng Ai.
"Don't worry, just let him escape. I'll see where he can escape."
After taking Fucheng, the Wei army was only more than 200 miles away from Chengdu, the capital of Shu Han.
Except for Mianzhu Pass, there are no other dangerous cities.
"The teacher is absolutely right."
Deng Ai cheered up and nodded.
"Okay, let the army rest for the night and continue marching tomorrow!"
Yang Ling ordered.
…
Jiangzhou.
Zhuge Liang was sitting in the military tent, frowning.
Although Wang Ping, Gao Xiang, Xiang Chong and others followed his instructions and tried every means to stop the Wei army.
But Wei Jun's strength was too strong.
If they destroy one ship, they can transfer ten more ships from Jingzhou.
By sacrificing one soldier, hundreds more soldiers can be recruited from the rear.
With such a disparity in strength, even though Zhuge Liang was as wise as a demon, there was a Fengchu Pang Tong who was no less than him on the opposite side.
Under such a situation, the Shu Han army could only continue to retreat.
At this moment, Xiang Chong's voice suddenly came from outside the tent,
"Prime Minister, I have something important to report at the end!"
"Come in!"
Zhuge Liang quickly returned to normal and said calmly.
Xiang Chong opened the curtain and walked in quickly, his face extremely nervous.
"I just received news from Fucheng. Your Majesty and the others have abandoned Fucheng and retreated to Chengdu!"
"What?!"
Zhuge Liang could hardly believe his ears.
"Didn't Your Majesty send the Barbarian King Meng Huo to sneak attack on Cao Wei's grain road?"
"That's true, but Meng Huo and the others were discovered by the Wei army..."
