Boom, boom, boom!
War drums sounded.
"Come on!"
"Kill!"
"Fuck it!"
...
The Jiangdong soldiers roared angrily, as if to dispel the fear in their hearts. They bravely attacked the public security county town, and the two sides launched a fierce siege.
The battlefield was filled with smoke and dust, and the sound of swords clashing could be heard endlessly.
Jiangdong soldiers rushed towards the city wall like a strong wind. They were armed with spears and sharp blades and quickly climbed up the ladders and siege ladders of the city wall. Arrows fell like rain, hitting the city wall with a dull crashing sound.
The soldiers were brave and fearless, charging forward and pushing the ladder with all their strength, trying to climb the city wall.
The defenders on the city withstood the fierce offensive from Jiangdong. They fought hard and shot at the enemy with bows and arrows and trebuchets. Arrows were flying, stones were falling, and the city walls were filled with an aura of chaos and death. Soldiers from both sides fought on the city wall, swords and swords clashed, and blood dyed the stone bricks of the city wall red.
The Jiangdong soldiers on the siege ladder continued to climb, but many warriors were shot down by the defenders on the way up and fell into the wall, becoming cold corpses.
The defense line on the city wall was in jeopardy, and the defenders struggled to hold every inch of the ground without leaving an inch.
Pan Jun, the public security guard, walked directly to the top of the city. He was wearing armor and personally bent his bow to kill the attacking enemies below the city.
"Brothers, guard the public security. How dare these Jiangdong rats come to attack the city? When His Highness's army arrives, they will be wiped out!"
Pan Jun took the lead, and the morale of the defenders on the city became strong.
"When Your Highness comes, rush out of the city to kill the enemy!"
"The Jiangdong rats only know how to sneak attack, don't be afraid of them!"
"Guard the police today, and reinforcements from Jiangling will come!"
...
As they cheered each other on, the morale of the police officers gradually increased.
Under the city, siege engines and trebuchets bombarded the city walls, making a huge roar. The stones on the city wall collapsed and smoke was everywhere, but the defenders still stood firm and shot at the attacking enemies with crossbows and spears.
The battlefield was in chaos. The shouts, screams of the soldiers, and the neighing of the horses were intertwined to form a sad and tragic picture. The casualties on both sides became increasingly heavy, but the Jiangdong soldiers attacking the city still did not flinch. They encouraged each other and moved forward bravely, determined to conquer the public security county.
The siege lasted for several hours, and the battlefield was covered with corpses and bloodstains, but Jiangdong soldiers still moved forward without fear of sacrifice.
The defenders on the city wall are not afraid of death.
The small public security county town has become a meat grinder for this battle.
Countless living lives are dying here.
On the mound outside the city.
Jiangdong Yingzhai was stationed on it.
A Zhuziya flag was planted in the camp. Zhu Huan was wearing armor, holding a ring-headed sword, and carrying a long bow on his waist. Looking at the scene below the city, his brows furrowed unconsciously.
The casualties were too great.
After working tirelessly for several hours to attack the city, there were probably more than a thousand soldiers who fell under the city.
This is only the first day!
They are all the old troops who have followed Zhu Huan for many years. They can be said to be the Zhu Jiajun.
Such a huge loss made his heart bleed with pain.
There are at least 5,000 defenders in the public security city, and he has more than 10,000 people. It will not be easy to defeat them.
Fortunately, the police force is not a fortified city. If we want to fight, there is still hope.
If a fortified city like Jiangling were to be attacked by force, the losses would be unmatched by the police.
"General, do you want to pay for it?"
Vice General Zhu Huan stepped forward and said, he saw the distress in Zhu Huan's eyes.
"No, continue to attack. Even if we can't capture it, we will still defeat the defenders on the city. I, the Jiangdong warrior, are not afraid of death. What do these casualties mean?"
"Father, in this case, let the children lead the troops to charge. If the children take action, the morale of the army will be high. It will not be a problem to defeat the police in one battle!"
Behind Zhu Huan, young general Zhu Yi stepped forward to ask for orders.
"Sieging a city is too dangerous. The arrows are ruthless. A young general cannot take risks all his life."
The deputy general stepped forward quickly and said.
"When my father was my age, he was also the one who rushed to the front. I, Zhu Yi, am as good as my father back then. Why can't I rush forward?"
He looked at Zhu Huan sincerely and said, "Please ask father to let me go and attack the city!"
"good!"
Zhu Huan nodded.
"This is Zhu Huan's son. The soldiers are willing to sacrifice their lives to attack the city. Is the life of my son more valuable than the lives of the soldiers on the front line? I, Zhu Huan, treat everyone equally. One son, you can immediately take over the troops and horses of my headquarters. Go and attack the city!”
"promise!"
After what Zhu Huan said, the generals behind him were convinced.
The general even sent his son to attack the city, so how could they not fight to the death?
Zhu Yi led his men to the battlefield. The morale of the Jiangdong soldiers on the attacking side was greatly boosted, and each of them became brave and unafraid of death.
The ladder was set up on the public security wall. Zhu Yi held a shield in his left hand above his head and a long knife in his right hand. He climbed the ladder and rushed up to the public security wall.
"Mom, your Grandpa Zhu, I'm here!"
Zhu Yi was the first to rush to the city wall and immediately started a fierce fight with the defenders on the city.
The swords of both sides clashed, the sound of battle was deafening, and the battlefield was filled with thick murderous intent.
Zhu Yi was blocking the city, and behind him a steady stream of Jiangdong soldiers rushed forward.
Gradually occupy a place on the city wall.
Zhu Yi was wearing iron armor and holding a heavy long sword. With his skillful sword skills and bravery, he led the soldiers to charge bravely, with the enthusiasm for siege burning in their chests. They charged forward, brandishing their weapons, and were unstoppable.
"Where does this rat dare to come to die?"
Pan Jun, wearing silver armor and holding a sharp blade, rushed forward immediately.
The two of them fought, and dazzling sparks burst out from the swords and swords. Facing each other's attacks, the two quickly dodge, parry, and attack with skillful and fierce skills.
After dozens of rounds, Zhu Yi and Pan Jun went back and forth, attacking and defending each other. Their swordsmanship is like lightning, their movements are sharp and fast, and every strike brings huge impact. Their figures quickly shuttled across the battlefield, striking out heavy blows while breathing. Many unlucky ones participated and became cold corpses.
However, as the battle progressed, there were fewer and fewer Jiangdong soldiers in the city, and Pan Jun was no longer the only one to compete with Zhu Yi.
At this time, there is no need to talk about moral principles.
Everyone gets up shoulder to shoulder.
One punch is no match for four hands.
The sword wounds on Zhu Yi's body continued to accumulate, blood flowed all over his body, and he gradually felt exhausted. Zhu Yi's offensive gradually slowed down, and his defense also had some flaws.
Pan Jun seizes the opportunity, pretending to take advantage of your illness to kill you!
With a fierce attack, he broke through Zhu Yi's defense and slashed towards his vital part.
Severe pain spread throughout Zhu Yi's body.
"ah!"
He screamed in pain and fell into a pool of blood. He was seriously injured and struggled hard. The blood couldn't stop flowing out, and he couldn't even stand up to fight.
Pan Jun stepped forward with a sneer.
"Why do you still want to capture the police?"
Zhu Yi was vomiting blood, and the guards beside him blocked Zhu Yi behind him.
"This is the general's son!"
The general's son?
Zhu Huan's son?
Pan Jun sneered and said, "Even if Zhu Huan comes, I will kill him, let alone his son?"
Will I, Pan Jun, surrender?
No!
He will not surrender even to death!
Fu Shiren's fate is still vivid in our minds!
He took the ring-shou knife and first slashed the bodyguard who was blocking Zhu Yi's body with one blow. Then he looked at Zhu Yi coldly, and the knife penetrated Zhu Yi's heart, stabbing him to the core.
The latter twitched twice, his eyes full of unwillingness. He stared at Pan Jun, but he could not stop the flow of life force. Soon, his soul returned to the Lord of Taishan Mansion.
"I, Pan Jun, will live and die with the soldiers, guard the public security, and kill the damn ones!"
Pan Jun's statement was naturally recognized by the Wudang Feijun who defended the city.
They all shouted:
"Keep the police and kill the damn ones!"
"Keep the police and kill the damn ones!"
...
In the Jiangdong military camp outside the city, when he learned that Zhu Yi had died on the city, Zhu Huan's heart hurt as if being stabbed by an awl, and grief and endless sorrow surged into his heart.
His eyes were moist and tears fell silently.
"Huh~"
Zhu Huan took a deep breath and tried to control his emotions.
Although as a general, he was no stranger to war and sacrifice, he could not restrain the pain in his heart when faced with the death of his own flesh and blood relatives.
But he understood that he could not be sad now, because sadness was useless. On the contrary, he wanted to use the death of his son to arouse the morale of the army!
"My son died in battle."
His eyes were bloodshot and he looked around at the generals in front of him.
He roared: "The police will not go down today. Tomorrow, I, Zhu Huan, will personally attack the city and pull out the police to avenge my son!"
Under Zhu Huan's tent, all the generals were filled with indignation. They all stepped forward to receive orders and requested to go to war.
If Zhu Huan is allowed to attack the city.
Then they still have the dignity to serve as generals under Zhu Huan?
Break the city!
Morale is usable, not much to say.
Zhu Huan immediately arranged the siege mission.
Siege the city!
Siege the city!
Take down the police!
Jiangdong's army attacked the city one after another, making Pan Jun feel even more pressure on the city.
He did not expect that Jiangdong's army would come so quickly and have such a strong desire to attack the city. The prepared defensive equipment was actually used up on the first day.
What follows is body-to-body, sword-to-sword hand-to-hand combat.
The casualties on both sides continue to soar!
The public security county seems to be in danger.
...
Nanyang.
Zhuyang County.
Liu Chan held a banquet with his officials in the city.
Today he surrendered to Zhuyang without a fight, and with the good news from Xiang Chong and Liao Hua in Shunyang and Li Kingdom, the whole of Nanyang was basically under his control.
Although there were no garrison troops in some cities, the garrison generals in the cities had already surrendered, killed the officials sent by Cao Cao, and asked Liu Chan to send officials to govern the place.
With the help of the Nanyang nobles, the entire population, army, and material resources of Nanyang are under Liu Chan's control.
Even after experiencing the baptism of the war, Nanyang is the largest county in the world, and its population can be said to be very prosperous compared to Yizhou.
If Liu Chan is given a few years to run Nanyang, he can support an army of 100,000 people. He can do it in Nanyang alone!
pity...
What he lacks most now is time.
Halfway through the banquet, someone came outside the door to tell the news.
"Meng Da, the governor of Yidu, and Liu Feng, the deputy commander of the army, have arrived outside the city."
oh?
Liu Chan stood up immediately. He laughed and said, "My brother and Zidu have arrived. How about you all go out of the city with me to welcome them?"
"I'll wait for the order!"
Liu Chan gave the order, and all the generals and ministers in the hall stood up, followed Liu Chan, and went to greet Liu Feng and Meng Da.
Liu Feng is the adopted son of Liu Bei. Now he has a special status and is often ignored and treated coldly by others.
Meng Da was a capricious person. Historically, he betrayed Shu Han and caused Liu Bei to lose the three eastern counties.
certainly...
Two people who had bad endings in history had to change their endings after meeting him, Liu Chan.
Why did Mengda rebel?
That’s because I feel dissatisfied!
After Liu Bei captured Hanzhong, he ordered Mengda to attack Fangling. Mengda crossed Xiangxi River from Zigui, went down the Fenshui River Valley to attack Fangling, and killed Kuai Qi, the prefect of Fangling.
Liu Bei was privately worried that Meng Da would not be able to take charge alone, so he ordered Liu Feng to take command of Meng Da's army from Hanzhong by Mian River and join Meng Da in Shangyongdi.
Of course, the worry that Meng Da would not be able to hold the post on his own was simply because Meng Da was an old subordinate of Liu Zhang and could not be trusted by Liu Bei.
Not long ago, Shen Dan and Shen Yi of Shangyong and Xicheng looked at the wind and descended. When Liu Bei captured the Three East Counties, Meng Da was credited with the first credit. Unfortunately, he was an old minister of Liu Zhang, so he had to serve as Liu Feng's deputy and assist Liu Feng in managing the Three East Counties.
Naturally, he felt angry.
Historically, because he refused Guan Yu's order, he said that Shangyong and other places had just surrendered and the people's hearts were unstable, so they did not send troops, which led to Guan Yu's death. Especially after the death of his friend and patron Fazheng, Meng Da was frightened and went to Wei Guo went.
In this life, because of Liu Chan's existence, Fa was alive and well, and Guan Yu did not have to ask them to send troops. Even because Liu Chan and Guan Yu were so powerful in Nanyang, the people of Shangyong were very obedient to the powerful.
Now that he, Liu Chan, is trying to regain his composure, Meng Da's reputation for being capricious will end at the hands of Liu Chan.
As for Liu Feng, he had no objections in the first place, and it would be a great help to have him follow suit.
Talents that can be used as generals should not be buried because of political matters.
This is why Liu Chan led his staff to go out of the city to greet him in person.
Make enough gestures to let them feel Liu Chan's sincerity!
Exchange sincerity for sincerity, this is Liu Gongsi's specialty.
...
Outside the city, Liu Feng and Meng Da both dismounted.
The two of them looked at Zhuyang City Gate with emotion in their hearts.
"His Highness is really talented. He made such progress as soon as he came to Jingzhou, and now he has conquered the entire Nanyang. He is truly a hero!"
There are not many people he admires, Mengda. Obviously, young Liu Chan is one of them.
If he were in Liu Chan's situation, would he have achieved such results in Jingzhou?
Meng Da shook his head slightly and denied himself in his heart. He simply couldn't do it.
"Yes, my lord really gave birth to a good son."
When he was in Chengdu, Liu Feng had already thought about it.
The gap between him and Liu Chan is too big.
His Highness's attack on the four counties of Nanzhong was like this before. Now that he has only been in Jingzhou for more than a month, he has achieved results that would be difficult for a famous general in history to surpass His Highness.
admire!
Liu Feng only had admiration in his heart.
"I just didn't know that His Highness summoned the two of us, but there was an appointment."
The three counties in the east have been conquered. Could it be that they want to attack Guanzhong?
It is not unreasonable for Liu Feng to think so.
All because the location of Dongsan County is so important:
The three eastern counties are blocked by Qinling Mountains and Daba Mountain as a whole, and transportation with Guanzhong and Yizhou is also very difficult. Even the three counties are blocked by mountains, making it difficult to travel.
Although it is difficult to travel by land, fortunately there is waterway support.
The Han River basin runs from Hanzhong to the east, passing through Shiquan County and Ziyang County, and then begins to diverge, forming a north-south direction. To the east of the Han River is Xicheng, and then it branches again to the east and west. The section of the Han River between the Ankang Basin and the Xiangfan Basin, the tributaries in the south of the Yangtze River block water and build water in a north-south direction, and the mountain valleys formed by the water blocking and water building basins are Shangyong County and Fengling County.
Precisely because of the existence of the Han River, by waterway, Dongsan County can go directly to Hanzhongyang County in the west; and can go directly to Deng County in Nanyang in the east, which is near Xiangyang.
In other words, Dongsan County is the water hub between Hanzhong and Xiangyang.
For the Liu Bei Group, the strategic value of the three eastern counties is extremely high, especially after capturing Xiangfan.
Zhuge Liang mentioned in the meeting in Longzhong: "Send the army of Jingzhou to Xiangwan and Luo... and lead the army of Yizhou out of Qinchuan."
The most important thing about this kind of two-front battle is coordination and communication. It can never be a separate operation.
Once troops are raised from Hanzhong and Xiangyang at the same time, the Han River waterway in the three eastern counties between Hanzhong and Xiangyang can coordinate the east and west lines. It will be very convenient whether it is transmitting military information, coordinating command, or placing troops and transporting supplies.
With joint communication, the two armies attacking Wei will not be careless about the head and tail.
At the same time, the Hanzhong, Dongsanjun and Xiangfan areas were captured, and the Shu Han army could freely shuttle between Jing and Yi through the Han River.
In this way, the prerequisites for the two-front Northern Expedition were met.
When they thought of the possibility, Meng Da and Liu Feng's hearts became hot.
Attack Guanzhong...
The opportunity to make a great contribution is now right in front of you.
The two of them were about to enter the city when Liu Chan quickly walked out of the city with a group of civil servants and generals.
"Hahaha!"
Just when Liu Chan's figure came into their eyes, the hearty laughter came first.
"Brother, Zidu, I have been looking forward to the stars and the moon for a long time, and finally the two of you are here."
Liu Chan held their hands enthusiastically.
"Your Highness, how can a general be so kind to you? I am really ashamed."
Liu Chan's enthusiastic attitude made Meng Da feel flattered.
This feeling was never experienced by the old master Liu Zhang, let alone Liu Bei.
Liu Bei was more wary of him than trusting him.
But His Highness was sincere to him.
Meng Da was so moved that his eyes were slightly red, and he almost cried when he was old.
"Don't I know that the general has made great achievements?"
Liu Chan looked at Meng Da with a smile on his face and said, "You climbed over the mountains and captured Fangling. You should be the first to conquer the three counties in the east."
"Your Highness..."
Meng Da was moved in his heart, and the grievances that had been buried in his heart for a long time suddenly came to his heart, making him burst into tears.
A man doesn't shed tears easily, but he hasn't reached the sad point yet!
Liu Chan patted Meng Da on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, you kill the prefect Kuai Qi. I have already written a letter to Zhuge Military Advisor to kill the general in front of the battle. There is no grudge. You don't have to worry."
This Governor Kuai is Zhuge Liang's eldest brother-in-law.
Although Kuai Qi was appointed by Liu Biao, he had already surrendered to Cao Cao at this time. It was understandable for Meng Da to kill Kuai Qi. Kong Ming was open-minded and had Liu Chan's letter as a guarantee, which was naturally to reassure Meng Da.
"Your Highness..."
Hearing Liu Chan's words, Meng Da was even more moved.
Your Highness really has my best interests at heart.
He was indeed a little panicked when he killed Kuai Qi. In addition, Liu Feng parachuted down, which made him even more frightened.
Now Liu Chan's words have dissipated the worries in his heart.
"Mengda will definitely remember His Highness's kindness in his heart. Whenever His Highness has military orders, the general will definitely obey them!"
Liu Chan is so trustworthy, what else does Meng Da have to say?
We can only fight to the death.
Such a lord, such a highness, I, Mengda, am willing to serve him!
"Okay, okay!"
Liu Chan said two good words in a row before turning his attention to Liu Feng.
"We say goodbye to Chengdu. My brother is haggard."
It is impossible to crawl around in the mountains of Dongsan County without becoming exhausted.
The smile on Liu Feng's face was very sincere.
"Your Highness is the one who is haggard. What you will do in the end will be no match for His Highness."
"Too modest, too modest."
Liu Chan held Liu Feng with his left hand and Meng Da with his right hand, and said emotionally: "The location of Dongsan County is important. The two of you are not afraid of hardships and have conquered this place. It is a great achievement. It is no worse than me taking Nanyang. Let's go." , a banquet is being prepared in the city, and you and I will not return until we get drunk!"
Liu Chan pulled Liu Feng Mengda and walked towards the city.
The government office lobby in the city.
Liu Chan sat on the main seat, followed by Liu Feng and Mengda.
"Everyone, please!"
Meng Da and Liu Feng were greeted with great courtesy by Liu Chan, and they were all touched. Now Liu Chan raised his glass, and both of them stood up from their seats, holding the wine bottle with both hands, and drank the wine in one gulp.
"Your Highness, please."
The food is over five flavors, and the wine is over three rounds.
During the interplay of intrigues, all the soldiers were enjoying themselves.
Liu Chan was also a little drunk.
However, he was not a bad drinker, so he was only slightly drunk.
"Report~"
Sudden!
The voice of the messenger appeared outside the hall.
The messenger walked into the hall, holding a cloth-wrapped bamboo slip in his hand, and half-knelt down at the foot of the hall.
"Your Highness, urgent report from Jiangling!"
Liu Chan looked at the uniforms of the messenger and frowned slightly.
This is an eight-hundred-mile rush!
Traveling eight hundred miles a day is the kind of person who can outrun a horse.
Guan Yinping went down and handed the bamboo slip to Liu Chan.
As soon as this information came, the sound of silk and bamboo in the palace stopped, and Mei Ji Yuling slowly withdrew.
Everyone in the hall was attracted by the eight hundred miles urgent news.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Liu Chan.
Opening the bamboo slip, Liu Chan just glanced at it and frowned.
His heart was heavy, and the odor of alcohol all over his body was washed away by a surge of energy, making him sober up a lot.
"Urgent report from Jiangling! We lost several cities in a row yesterday. The police and Jialing have cut off news exchanges. Jiangdong's army has already retreated to Jiangling City."
"What!"
Guan Yinping had a look of shock on his face.
"How could this happen?"
Isn't there a large army in this state mausoleum?
Isn't there a deer antler barrier outside Gangneung City?
How could Jiangdong's army arrive at Jiangling City so quickly that the defenders in the city had no response?
As shocked as Guan Yinping was everyone in the hall.
Fei Yi stepped forward and said: "Your Highness, there is no room for loss in Jiangling. I also ask Your Highness to go to Jiangling quickly to support and repel the Jiangdong army!"
"good!"
Dong Yun also stood up and said: "Jiangling has a large army and family members, and it is the hub for controlling the rear of Jingzhou. If it is lost, the way back is not guaranteed. Please hurry up and send troops to rescue!"
When Liu Feng and Meng Da saw this, they immediately stood up and said, "General, I am willing to rush to Jiangling's aid for His Highness!"
Could it be that His Highness had anticipated this?
Did the two of them come here in such a hurry just to rescue Jiangling?
I heard that His Highness has the ability to predict the unknown, and now that Mengda saw it, he already believed it in his heart.
"Hahaha!"
While everyone was panicking, Liu Chan burst into laughter.
When everyone saw this, they were very surprised.
They all had their hearts in their throats, but His Highness laughed?
"Why are you laughing, Your Highness?"
Dou Xiao stood up and asked.
Jiangling was attacked by the Jiangdong army, and the Wei army was watching in Nanyang.
The situation where the Sun and Liu families were attacking the Wei State was suddenly reversed.
Dou Xiao was a little panicked now.
Your Highness has indeed won successive battles against Wei.
But this time Wei and Jiangdong are attacking Jingzhou together. Can His Highness still be as invincible as before?
"There is a large army stationed in Jiangling, and Military Advisor Pang is here, and the city is full of food and grass. Even if the Jiangdong army attacks for a month, he will not be able to defeat it!"
Jiangling City is a fortified city.
Guan Yu reinforced it once.
He, Liu Chan, reinforced it again. If he wanted to chew off this iron lump, how could he do it without breaking a few of his teeth?
Want to become a fat man in one go?
It depends on whether you have the appetite first!
"What do you mean, Your Highness, not to rush to Jiangling's aid?"
Fei Yi's brows furrowed tightly.
Although he also believed in Pang Tong's ability and the strength of Jiangling City.
But they don’t dare to bet!
What if Jiangling is really captured?
Even if there is only a chance, they are not willing to gamble.
There is no room for error in Gangneung!
"Of course we are going to help Jiangling, but it depends on how we go to help."
Jiangdong's sudden betrayal of the alliance really caught Liu Chan off guard.
But to this extent, it is not enough to make him lose his position.
"If my army goes to support Jiangling, Nanyang will be empty. If I send my brother and Zidu your army to Jiangling, the three eastern counties will also be empty. What will happen if Wei attacks Nanyang?"
Without waiting for everyone to answer, Liu Chan said to himself: "Nanyang is obeying now because of my troops. To say that it has completely conquered people's hearts, it has not reached that level. The powerful people of the three counties in the east are obeying because of me." The results of the battle in Nanyang made them dare not make any changes, but the Wei State is attacking from two sides in the east of the Yangtze River, Nanyang's people are unstable, and there is no army to suppress it in the three eastern counties, wouldn't it be unrest?"
Dou Xiao stood up at this moment, and he immediately expressed his position and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, I, Dou Xiao, have absolutely no two intentions."
Liu Chan nodded lightly and said, "I don't doubt your loyalty, but it's normal for people's hearts to fluctuate when the army is approaching. I can't think about the best, but the worst."
By capturing Nanyang, we did gain a lot of land and a lot of material resources.
But correspondingly, the troops were scattered throughout Nanyang.
He can requisition Nanyang's troops, but can these crucial troops be used by you?
Their loyalty is an issue.
At a critical moment, a blow in the back can kill you.
Liu Chan can be said to have captured the entire Nanyang area today, but he hasn't secured his seat yet!
They haven't had time to sort out Nanyang's complicated relationships, and their respective soldiers haven't had time to reorganize and brainwash them.
time!
Not enough time!
"Jiangdong Rats, you really can't be trusted. You betrayed your alliance and you will never swore an alliance with them again in the future!"
Again and again.
Guan Yinping's impression of Sun Quan became even worse.
At this moment, she was so angry that she wished she could lead her troops to Jiangling, fight the Jiangdong rats for three hundred rounds in person, and cut off Sun Zhongmou's head.
"Then according to His Highness's plan, what should we do now?"
Faced with Mount Tai collapsing in front of him, his expression remained unchanged.
My Highness can still laugh now.
When everyone in the hall saw Liu Chan's appearance, their originally nervous, agitated, panicked, and turbulent hearts calmed down.
Your Highness is not panicking, why should we be panicking?
With His Highness here, why are you afraid of Jiangdong's army attacking Jiangling?
Liu Chan was like a needle that calmed the sea, immediately calming the hearts of the officials in the hall.
"Where is Ah Hui Nan?"
"The general is here!"
Ah Huinan immediately stepped forward to obey the order!
"Go to Fancheng, lead 10,000 soldiers and horses, and rush to Jiangling's aid."
"The last general takes command!"
There's work again!
Ah Hui Nan was eager to try. He had previously captured Fancheng to let Wei know that he, Ah Hui Nan, was there.
This time I went to rescue Jiangling and let the Jiangdong rats see the majesty of Ah Huinan!
"Your Majesty."
Liu Chan looked at Yu Jin.
"You lead Fancheng's surrender troops, set out from Zhangling and Suixian County, attack Anlu, and disturb the Jiangdong grain road."
Starting from Anlu, Zhangling County, you can go around from the north and reach Jiangxia.
Liu Chan didn't have much expectations for the ban, after all, he had Jiangjun under his command.
We don't want it to be able to defeat the enemy in the front, but just want it to be able to disturb the land supply route in Jiangdong and make Jiangdong's army exhausted. Then the effect of banning the dispatch of troops will be achieved.
"The last general takes command!"
Yu Jin stepped forward to obey the order, but there was still a slight dissatisfaction on his face.
Your Highness, are you looking down on me, Yu Wenze?
Although I am a reduced general, I have been fighting for a lifetime.
The more than 10,000 soldiers at hand, although they are surrendered, are only used to harass the grain roads. Isn't that killing a chicken with a sledgehammer?
He looked up at Liu Chan and said nothing, but he had already made up his mind.
Either defeat Jiangdong's army from the north, or directly defeat Jiangxia and cut off Jiangdong's retreat.
Your Highness Haojiao knows that although I am old, I can still eat three big bowls of rice!
I'm just old, but not useless!
Seeing that Yu Jin's heart was full of fighting spirit, Liu Chan did not speak.
As long as Yu Jin can achieve the goal he set, as for Yu Jin's ability to achieve that level, it depends on him.
"Send an envoy to Yong'an and order Li Yan, the governor of Yong'an, to lead the navy to support Jiangling!"
As for Wuling...
The distance is too far, and the police are definitely being attacked by Jiangdong now.
If you want to deliver the message, it may take a month or two if you take a detour.
too long!
Distant water cannot quench near thirst.
Wuling has Ma Liang in charge, he should know how to do it.
After all these actions, if no major changes occurred, Jiangling City should be saved.
"Your Highness won't go to Jiangling to take charge?"
Fei Yi was about to order the messenger to deliver the order, but when he saw that Liu Chan had stopped speaking, he hesitated a little, but still asked the questions in his heart.
"Support Jiangling?"
Liu Chan shook his head gently.
"Is it only Jiangdong who wants to attack us?"
Only Jiangdong wants to attack us?
Fei Yi was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately came to his senses.
"Your Highness, you mean that Xu Huang will definitely come to attack Wancheng?"
"good."
Liu Chan nodded.
"As soon as the news of Jiangdong's attack on Jiangling reaches Ye County, Xu Huang will definitely send troops!"
In addition, there are spies such as Zong Ziqing and Dongligun in Wancheng.
I'm afraid Xu Huang is already eager to give it a try?
For the Wei State, Jiangdong's attack on Jiangling will inevitably attract Nanyang troops to support it. At this time, Nanyang is at its weakest.
This is also the time when Xu Huang has the best chance to take back Wancheng.
but...
This is also Liu Chan's best chance to break the situation!
The Jiangdong army and Xu Huang of Wei State attacked at the same time. Liu Chan could go to Jiangling and take charge of the army with his troops.
If he goes to Jiangling, not to mention the 100,000 troops in Jiangdong, even if there are 200,000 troops, Jiangling cannot be captured.
Guan Yu was in charge of Wancheng, and Xu Huang was unable to capture Wancheng for a while.
If there is no progress on both sides, it will be extremely disadvantageous for the Liu Bei Group.
If both sides of the battlefield reach a stalemate, what is at stake is national strength!
The Wei State has the support of the fertile land in the Central Plains, and the troops and grain are continuously transported, so it can naturally afford it.
Jiangdong's army has the support of grain, grass and troops from Jiangdong's rear. Even if Jiangling is not captured, the siege can still afford it.
Who can't afford it?
Of course it's Liu Chan and Guan Yu.
How can the three counties of Jingzhou support an army of more than 100,000 people?
Nanyang Fangxia, under the crisis, can the people's hearts be stable?
Still thinking about Nanyang transporting military supplies?
There was no turmoil in the rear, so thank God.
If it really comes to that situation, even if Liu Chan wants to break the situation, what can he do if the opponent refuses to fight?
That's why...
He wants to break the situation!
The breaking point is in Wancheng!
He was in Xu Huang's army.
Wei State has been defeated again and again. If Xu Huang is really defeated, coupled with Liu Bei's intimidation in Hanzhong, Wei State may not be able to gather a large army capable of threatening Nanyang within a year or two.
However, Jiangdong had just suffered a defeat, and its military strength had not actually suffered much loss.
In addition, they were obviously prepared to attack Jiangling. They even expected that Liu Chan would return to help Jiangling, and they were already prepared for a protracted war.
Hard to win quickly.
Even if he wins, if he cannot win a big victory, Jiangdong will not be seriously injured.
And Xu Huang thought that he, Liu Chan, would go to support Jiangling. Since Nanyang was empty, he would definitely be relatively aggressive.
This is Liu Chan's only chance!
"Spread the news and I will raise a large army to support Jiangling."
In order to act more realistically, Liu Chan said to Fei Yi: "Take my guard of honor and military flag to Jiangling."
Liu Chan thought for a moment and said to Guan Yinping beside him: "Feng'er, you also go to Jiangling."
"I?"
Guan Yinping was stunned.
"You stay with me day and night. Wherever you are, I will be there. Secretly, when people in the Wei Kingdom see you there and see my ceremonial guard and flag going to Jiangling, they must have thought that I really went to support Jiangling."
The truth is naturally this.
But Guan Yinping felt quite reluctant to give up.
Since going to Nanzhong, except for the period when she went to establish households and measure the land, she had been with Liu Chan day and night.
Naturally, he was reluctant to be separated from Liu Chan suddenly.
But she looked at Liu Chan's clear eyes and thought about the current situation. She gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I will just obey your order."
This is about the bigger picture.
What does her little affection count?
His Highness once said, if love lasts for a long time, how can we stay together day and night?
If she wins this battle, she will be able to stay with Liu Chan in the future.
If the battle is lost.
Then don't say it.
Maybe your life will be lost?
Wei Guo can be defeated again and again.
Jiangdong can be defeated again and again.
But for the Liu Bei Group, it can only win, not lose.
They can't afford to lose!
Jiangling can’t afford to lose it!
The country cannot afford to waste it!
"Everyone, let's tide over the difficulties together. After this battle, Nanyang and Jingzhou are all in my hands."
Liu Chan raised his glass, bowed to everyone, and then drank all the wine in the bottle.
"I'm Liu Chan, please help me!"
Everyone stood up, holding wine bottles in their hands.
"Your Highness, why do you need to say this? We regard Your Highness as our leader, so we naturally want to be loyal to you. In times of crisis, a hero is seen, and we will win this battle!"
Liu Feng made an impassioned speech.
"good!"
Yu Jin also stood up and said: "Your Highness has the qualifications of a dragon and a phoenix, is in a great position, and is a noble person in the sky. How can he be defeated by this small setback? The rats from Jiangdong have nothing to worry about. This battle will be won!"
"Wei General Xu Huang is just a general who sells his head by inserting a bid. There is no need to worry about it. With His Highness here, this battle will be won!"
"This battle must be won!"
"This battle must be won!"
...
Everyone bowed to Liu Chan and drank all the wine in the wine bottle.
"good!"
Liu Chan was relieved.
At least Liu Chan's personality charm is pretty good.
Now being attacked from both sides by Wei and Jiangdong, none of his ministers and generals showed any fear in their hearts, nor did they have any intention of defecting.
If the king and his ministers are united, how can we not win this battle?
After the banquet, all parties moved.
Ah Huinan galloped towards Fancheng.
Mengda led his troops back to the three eastern counties.
Fei Yiguan Yinping took Liu Chan's honor guard and rushed to Jiangling quickly.
There is no love between children, no parting.
Liu Chan and Guan Yinping looked at each other, and Guan Yinping rode away.
In troubled times, how can there be personal love?
As Liu Chan said, if love lasts for a long time, how can it last forever?
Liu Chan understands this truth, and Guan Yinping, who knows Liu Chan well, also understands this truth.
In the end, there were only 500 soldiers of Prince Liu Chan, 3,000 soldiers of Liu Feng, 3,000 soldiers of Yujin headquarters, and more than 1,000 soldiers of Dou Xiao left in Zhuyang County.
"Your Majesty, why don't you set off yet?"
Yu Jinyan was obviously full of fighting spirit just now, but he didn't expect that he was the last one to leave now.
Yu Jin stood up, quite embarrassed.
But as a subordinate, it is your duty to share your master's worries.
"Your Highness, the Lady of the Guan family has left, and there is no one who knows how to take care of Your Highness. I have found a beauty. Her appearance is very beautiful, and she has the appearance of a fish and a goose. I hope Your Highness will accept her."
You are so old and dishonest.
This screen is just gone, but you are going to offer me a beauty?
Liu Chan said with a smile: "I will accept your kindness. This battle is difficult. I hope you will act within your ability and not be too aggressive."
Yu Jin immediately handed over his hand and accepted the order.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely do a good job in disturbing the grain road!"
What does it mean not to be radical?
I Yu Jin personally went out to fight those Jiangdong rats. Isn’t that easy to capture?
radical?
nonexistent!
After Yu Jin settled his worries for many days, he immediately set off without any distractions and led his troops away from Zhuyang. He headed towards Fancheng, preparing to reorganize the surrendered troops and attack the Jiangdong grain road.
Liu Chan looked at the remaining people in the hall and said with a smile: "For this big banquet, we are the only ones left, please."
Liu Feng picked up the wine bottle and quickly returned the gift.
"Your Highness, since you are using it as a mystery, can we set off for Wancheng?"
"No, wait a few days."
How many days to wait?
Liu Feng was stunned.
"After the news of my trip to Jiangling reaches Ye County, you and I will set off for Wancheng."
If the news does not reach Ye County, Xu Huang will not send troops, so it is best for him not to show up.
Be careful there are Wei spies in this city!
Moreover, it also takes time to gather soldiers and prepare food and fodder for a large army to conquer.
Liu Chan was in high spirits, with no look of decadence or fear in his eyes.
He held the wine bottle in his hand and looked towards Wancheng.
Xu Huang!
With the situation like this, the fate of our country, Shu Han, rests on you alone.
Come and give me a head!
