Outside the south gate of Yiling City,

The middle army of Shu army,

"Good news!"

A member of the Shu Army flew towards Liu Bei on horseback and shouted, "Your Majesty, good news has come from Yiling City."

"Oh!?" Liu Bei's eyes were overjoyed and he couldn't wait to ask, "Say quickly! What's the news!?"

"The west gate of Yiling City has been breached by Li Jun, the leader of the Bailian Army. He also repelled the elite Jiefan Army of the Wu Army and completely took control of the west gate. General Li Jun also divided his troops and broke through the east gate and north gate of Yiling. The entire Yiling Of the city, only the south gate has not been breached, but General Li Jun has begun to assemble Bai Chen's army to attack the south gate."

The Shu Army soldiers who reported the news were panting and talking happily.

"Okay! That's great. This Li Jun is really a good unicorn general who can win every battle in my Han Dynasty." Liu Bei was overjoyed. Even though he was an emperor of the Shu Han Dynasty, he was so excited that he forgot himself at this moment.

Ma Liang clasped his fists in congratulations, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, if nothing unexpected happens, Yiling City can be captured today."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, my big man finally defeated me."

"What a joy, Your Majesty."

"Tonight, we big men can finally settle in Yiling."

The rest of the Shu army generals looked surprised and congratulated each other in unison.

"Hahahaha..." Liu Bei raised his head and laughed, "When Yiling is conquered, I will hold a celebration banquet in Yiling City tonight. It's time for you. My dear friends, feel free to have a good time."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The Shu Han general bowed to Liu Bei.

Ma Liang suddenly thought of something and said, "Your Majesty, our army has occupied three of the four gates of Yiling, leaving only the south gate. However, there are still ten thousand Wu troops in Yiling City. Although Li Jun's three thousand white soldiers are elite, I'm afraid that It is difficult to deal with it. In order to conquer Yiling as soon as possible, Your Majesty can immediately issue an order to attack the city again, and cooperate with Li Junli inside the city to win the battle."

"What Ji Chang is worried about is exactly what I am thinking." Liu Bei nodded in agreement, "Pass on my wishes, and the entire army will attack Yiling City."

"I obey the decree!"

Ma Liang responded and waved to the messenger next to him.

The ordering soldier understood, and immediately held the red order flag high, galloped out on horseback, and went to convey the order.

"Your Majesty has a decree to attack Yiling City."

The shouts of the messengers were heard in the Shu army formation, one after another.

Immediately afterwards.

"boom!"

The sound of beating drums exploded, deafening, resounding throughout the vast land.

…………

On the south gate tower,

Lu Xun, Han Dang and other Soochow generals were discussing how to resist the Shu army's attack on the city.

Suddenly hearing the thunderous beating of drums outside the city, everyone's expressions changed, and Lu Xun's eyes trembled.

"The Shu army began to attack the city again."

A school captain on the tower looked into the distance. A look of panic on his face.

Lu Xun shouted in a deep voice, "Don't panic, be prepared for defense."

"Yes, Grand Governor."

Captain Wu nodded and ran away quickly.

at this time,

A Wu Army soldier came over and said, "The Governor, General Xu Kai has returned with Zhou Yin's consort."

"Oh?" Lu Xun looked happy, "Tell them to come up to the tower quickly."

"yes!"

After a while,

"Captain!" Xu Kai and Zhou Yin walked up to Lu Xun with expressions on their faces.

Lu Xun's heart skipped a beat and asked, "I see that your faces are different. What happened?"

"Grand Governor." Xu Kai said with a look of reluctance and grief, "The general is incompetent and failed to recapture the west gate. I ask the Grand Governor to punish him."

"What?" Lu Xun's face changed drastically, full of panic and anxiety, "Xu Kai, you are known as the spear king of the South in my country, Wu, and your marksmanship is unrivaled in the world. In order to recapture the west gate, I specially sent three thousand of my elite Wu. Why did the Jiefan Army fail to recapture the west gate?"

"Grand Governor, it turns out that the man who attacked our west gate of Yiling City was the Shu thief general named Li Jun. This man was so cunning and cunning that he actually took Zhou Yin's consort hostage and threatened me to retreat, otherwise he would kill Zhou Yin's consort. For the safety of Zhou Yin's consort, he had no choice but to retreat." Xu Kai's face was extremely hateful, and his eyes were flashing with anger.

"It's Li Jun again!" Lu Xun's eyes flashed with a cold look.

"Grand Governor, since this Li Jun appeared, our army has been defeated one after another. If this person is not eliminated, he will be a serious problem for our great Wu." Han Dang's thick eyebrows tightened, with murderous intent in his eyes.

"Grand Governor, what should we do? The west gate has been breached by Li Jun, and we will not be able to secure the east gate and north gate. The situation is very unfavorable for us." Zhuge Jin's face was full of uneasiness.

"Now Liu Bei's army outside the city has begun to attack the city again. Three more gates in the city have been captured by the Shu army. Our army has been attacked from both sides." Pan Zhang, who had always been a man of few words, could not help but express his worries at this moment.

"Grand Governor, how should we deal with the Shu army now?"

Yiling City was surrounded by dangers, and all the Soochow generals looked frightened and asked Lu Xun.

Lu Xun ignored them and said to Zhou Yin, "Zhou Yin, you were captured by the enemy. I feel wronged. Go down to the tower first. There will be soldiers to help you exit Yiling City."

"Yeah!" Zhou Yin responded lightly and left without looking back.

"Grand Governor, what about us?"

When Han Dang saw Lu Xun arranging for Zhou Yin to be sent out of Yiling, he seemed to guess what Lu Xun meant.

"General Han Dang, do you think we can defend Yiling City in this situation?" Lu Xun regained his cold expression and looked at Han Dang with a pair of dark eyes.

Han Dang frowned, thought for a moment, looked solemn, and replied, "Grand Governor, there are still 10,000 soldiers in our army in Yiling City, and they are still capable of fighting."

"Grand Governor, I am willing to lead another 3,000 Jiefang troops to rush to the west gate, destroy Li Junshu's army, recapture the west gate, and atone for his sins." Xu Kai, who had been lowering his head, raised his forehead, and his heroic face was full of that touch. stern.

Lu Xun was silent, seeming to be thinking of a countermeasure.

Zhuge Jin said, "Grand Governor, it's too early to give up on Yiling now. Yiling City not only has ten thousand soldiers, but also tens of thousands of militiamen at our disposal. Liu Bei's Shu army outside the city will not be able to attack as long as we defend. Going up to the city tower is nothing to worry about, the top priority right now is to deal with Li Junshu's army in the city as soon as possible, regain all the gates, and stabilize Yiling, which is the top priority."

"What Ziyu said is true. The Li Jun Shu army is the big problem. As long as the Li Jun Shu army is destroyed, the crisis in Yiling City can be solved." Han Dang nodded and agreed with Zhuge Jin.

"Okay, do you mean that you have chosen to fight the Shu army to the end?" Lu Xun glanced at everyone.

"Yes!" Han nodded solemnly in front of all the Soochow generals without any hesitation.

"What if it fails? How to deal with it?" Lu Xun asked.

"The Commander-in-Chief, Li Jun, has a full attack on the Shu army, but there are only about a thousand to three thousand. The number is not large. How can he be our opponent? It is simply a fool's dream to rely on these thousands of troops to conquer the entire Yiling." Xu Sheng He sneered disdainfully.
