When he walked to the entrance of the palace, Sima Xiu raised his head and looked at the front of the entrance. A young man covered in blood was still holding on with a tired army of only a few hundred people.
"That's it. This young boy built fences and used various objects to prevent us from entering the palace. I heard that even the stone slabs in the palace were torn down by these people." Wei Qiu's voice was filled with hatred.
On the entrance to the entrance, the puppy Fu, who had just eaten half a mouthful of rice cake, looked surprised when he saw a new enemy coming, and quickly swallowed it. Holding his sword, he roared with a hoarse voice.
"Everyone, please form your formation again!"
Hundreds of people, whose bodies were crumbling before, heard Xiaofu's order and lined up in formation again, holding their halberds, swords and shields firmly in their hands.
"Teacher, I guess the civilian thieves should have received their pension in advance. Otherwise, these people wouldn't be so desperate."
Sima Xiu sighed, "You are wrong. Xu Buyi's people have always been like this. Don't forget that he takes a people-oriented approach."
"Teacher, don't worry. Starting from the day before yesterday, I have found many craftsmen and asked them to build catapults."
Sima Xiu's eyes were slightly disappointed.
"Wei Qiu, have you ever thought about it. To deal with the bravery of an ordinary man, you only need to do one thing."
"Just one thing?"
Sima Xiu nodded, "You only need to find the water source leading to the outside of the palace, and then poison it inside. The defenders will be defeated without attacking."
Listening, Wei Qiu looked overjoyed and was about to speak again——
Suddenly, a leader of the rebel army hurried over.
"Sir, Mr. Wei, a group of soldiers came out from the direction of the north gate! We can't hold on, the north gate of Chengdu has been lost!"
"What!" Wei Qiu was so shocked that he lost his voice.
"The only military strength in Chengdu is Han Jiusunxun, but these two reckless men only have more than 5,000 people in total. They have already designed the layout! The two thousand people in front of me are almost dead! The remaining common people and weapons are all gone. Nothing, what kind of battle can we fight!”
"On the western side of Shu, there are only some county soldiers left."
Sima Xiu also frowned. The entire Shu was empty, and even the last Pingman camp was blocked by him. At this time, why would there be an extra team of people?
"How many are these thieves?" Wei Qiu suppressed his anger.
"There were about thousands of people... After seizing the door, they immediately transferred the people and burned the alley houses near the north gate."
"Teacher, this is to prevent our army from passing through the fire and attack the gate again!"
"I'm stalling for time." Sima Xiu's foxy eyes showed bitterness for the first time since he entered Shu.
"Wei Qiu, there is no need to worry about damage, and there is no need to use poisonous tactics to slow down the killing. Just move forward with a shield formation and capture the palace."
All it takes is Xu Buyi's princess and heirs to be kidnapped, and the entire Shuzhou will be in danger.
"Teacher, I'm going to go right now -"
"Sir, Sima Military Advisor, there is another army above the king and the palace!"
Listening, Sima Mao walked forward hurriedly with a cold face. When he saw the dense white clothes above the palace, he closed his eyes in pain.
"Xia'erjun... Wei Qiu, you and I have fallen into a trap."
Wei Qiu, who was standing next to him, suddenly became confused and lost all of his previous high spirits.
Above the palace, Li Xiaoyao was holding the puppy Fu with one hand, pointing angrily at the sword with the other hand, looking coldly at the bottom of the entrance.
"My military advisor has said that eight thousand knights will be left with swords in hand, and Mr. Sima will be invited to attack!"
"Ask Mr. Sima to attack!" Following Xiaoyao's voice, the whole palace resounded with a uniform roar.
Actually, not that much. Li Xiaoyao just followed the instructions of his military advisor and acted calmly, taking his time.
The military advisor said that just by mentioning his name, Sima Xiu below would definitely not choose to attack by force. Of course, if Ryoto really attacks, he can only defend with all his strength and delay time. After all, Shangguan Shu had already led two thousand people to take the North Gate by relying on his Qinggong skills.
"May I ask, young hero, who is your military advisor?" Sima Xiu said with a solemn face.
"The Five Strategies in the World, Mr. Poisonous Eagle!"
After a moment of silence, Sima Mao turned his back to the sky and breathed out with difficulty.
"Teacher...what should I do?"
"No wonder there is a young man guarding the palace. The poisonous owl has set up a trap, and even this gang of heroes are waiting for me to join the trap."
"The burning alleyway at the north gate, the plain barbarian camp that has been slow to catch up, and even the reckless man Han Jiu... Poisonous eagle, poisonous eagle, what a strange conspiracy."
"My commander, Matthew, is like a turtle in an urn."
…
As they got closer and closer to Chengdu, Han Jiu and Sun Xun rarely showed expressions of surprise. Unexpectedly, at this moment, several figures on horseback came hurriedly.
"The military advisor gave the order, and the city guard general Sun Xun obeyed the order. He immediately led his people to the official road outside the east gate of Chengdu to set up an ambush to stop the attack——"
"Hey, I'm General Poliang Han Jiu, I'm not dead yet!"
The Xia'er scout who spoke looked startled for a moment, and then added wisely, "General Han forgives me for speaking in a hurry, so I respectfully invite General Han and General Sun to lead the army near the east gate of Chengdu. This is Military Advisor Jia’s order must not be delayed.”
"Since it is the military advisor's order, we will go there immediately."
Chen Que, who was beside Han Jiu, was silent for a while, as if he had figured something out. When no one noticed, he sighed heavily.
The few chivalrous scouts who conveyed the message showed the token again. After Han and Jiu took a closer look, they clasped their fists and said goodbye, riding away again.
"The strategist's plan has turned the enemy chief into a urn!"
"Army, go straight to the north gate of Chengdu! Don't forget that we, the people of Shuzhou, are still under the butcher's knife of Liang Gou."
"Roar!" The more than 4,000 Yuguan defenders rarely left the Xiongguan they were guarding. They were so majestic that their pace speeded up unknowingly.
Sitting on a horse, Chen Zhong held a bow and a sword on his back, his face full of fighting intent to kill the enemy.
…
It's not far from Yuguan.
Jia Zhou's face became calmer and calmer. Behind him, Fan Lu led 5,000 men and horses. Hearing that they were surrounding and killing Liang Hu, their morale was like a rainbow.
"Military advisor, everything is ready! Over at Pingman Camp, they also listened to the advisor's instructions and began to fight their way to Chengdu from the mountain road!"
"This urn is already as big as an iron bucket." Jia Zhou murmured. Under this situation, if Sima Xiu breaks the situation and escapes again, he will really be hopeless.
Several armies surrounded and killed Sima Xiu. It was already a certain death situation.
But Jia Zhou didn't have any carelessness. He knew exactly what kind of opponent he was facing.
"Military advisor, the intelligence says that there is a force of 3,000 Liangqi outside Yuguan."
"Kill anyone who blocks the way." Jia Zhou's eyes were sharp.
"Behead Sima Xiu, then break Liang, and then break An and merge the two states. I, the Shu people, have the ambition to dominate the Western Frontier!"
All around Jia Zhou, the soldiers who were following him, one by two, all showed yearning looks on their faces.
"March!" Fan Lu drew his sword and roared, pointing to the front.
