Liu Chan's soldiers and horses were blocked in Wancheng, and Liu Chan, who could have escaped... was completely unable to escape at this time.
Of course, this does not mean that Liu Chan is really determined to sacrifice his life to serve the country.
The main problem is that while Liu Chan was talking, he was also restricted to within five steps of Sun Qian, with a rope tied around his waist!
It wasn't that Sun Qian was afraid that Liu Chan would run away, but the main reason was that the moment Cao Zhang appeared, His Highness's first thought was... "Let's run!"
Sun Qian looked at the galloping cavalry below. Although he was not familiar with the art of war, he also knew that it would not be easy for the cavalry to attack the city.
Wancheng, not Xiangfan, has been completely destroyed. The city walls have been repaired long ago, and the morale of their soldiers is so high. What are they afraid of?
This time, Sun Qian just reluctantly asked Liu Chan to stop talking, but a few days later Xu Huang came with his troops.
Your Highness will say one more thing.
"Either... let's surrender! Gu also has some experience..."
Fortunately, there were no other people around and Liu Chan's voice was very low, so morale was not affected.
After that, Sun Qian directly tied his and Liu Chan's waists with ropes, euphemistically calling it to protect Liu Chan. Of course... he also wanted to know where Liu Chan came from and what experience he had!
How can the great prince of the Han Dynasty surrender easily?
presumptuous! Nonsense!
However, there was nothing much to say at this time. He could only drag Liu Chan with him to patrol the city every day to boost Wancheng's morale.
At this time, except for Shen Dan, who was relatively old in the military, only Deng Zhi and Ma Zhong had some ability in Wancheng, and the others were nothing more than that.
The opponents in Wancheng are Cao Zhang, who was once known as the number one among the younger generation among the Cao Wei clan, and Cao Wei's famous general Xu Huang, who is known as the "long drive straight in".
There are many reasons why Liu Chan was able to protect Wancheng from the attack of these two people.
One is that although Cao Zhang came first, his cavalry advanced first, making it difficult to attack the city.
The second is that Xu Huang came all the way, but his morale was low and his soldiers and horses were exhausted. In addition, Wancheng was strong and easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Third...the morale in Wancheng is really too high!
At this time, in the waterway from Yizhou to Jingzhou, a fleet of dozens of ships was heading in a certain direction.
There were several people standing proudly on the bow of the leading ship.
If a Jiangdong veteran saw the leader, Yu Fan Lunjin, they would think that his appearance seemed similar to that of Zhou Yu back then, but... he had a completely different temperament.
This person was none other than Zhuge Kongming, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, who was ranked lower than ten thousand people in the Chengdu court.
Behind him on the left is Zheng Du, a famous scholar from Yizhou who was visited by Zhuge Liang several times and finally invited out.
On the right is the commander of the fleet, a famous scholar in Yizhou, and the general of Zhenbei of the Han Dynasty, Huang Quan!
In addition to these three people, there was also a young general guarding Zhuge Liang. He was the lieutenant colonel of Xu Huangjun during the Battle of Hanzhong and the foreign general Wang Ping who was also half Bajian.
In addition, there are several generals from Yizhou, such as the veteran Yan Yan, Liu Xun, son of Liu Zhang, two generals from the Wu family, Wu Yi, Wu Ban...
It can be said that although there are not too many soldiers and horses in the navy at this time, they can definitely be regarded as the elite among them, and they can also be said to be the last elite of the Han Dynasty.
"Prime Minister, the news has come. His Royal Highness is trapped in Wancheng. Should we speed up a little bit..."
"The waterway march is already very fast. It will not be easy for us to gather troops and horses. We must not take it lightly.
This time, I want to help the people of Nanyang migrate first, and secondly, to stabilize the situation so that this battle will not end too quickly, and at the same time, I will not let Cao Pi escape.
As for Nanyang County... His Highness the Crown Prince has Deng Zhi and Ma Zhong beside him, both of whom are capable of being great generals. Given time, they will definitely be able to become my great man's cauldron bearer!
Moreover, there were thousands of soldiers and horses beside His Highness, and their morale was like a rainbow. Along the way, they captured cities and territories, fought and won consecutive battles, and their morale was already a bit like that of Jiangdong Tiger Sun Wentai.
As long as you rely on Wancheng, you don't have to worry too much. "
Zhuge Kongming listened to Huang Quan's worried questions and chuckled to reassure the generals.
From Zhuge Kongming's words, they could easily tell that this battle is still part of Zhuge Liang's plan until now.
"The Prime Minister is very calculating. In this way, I, a big man, can make up for some energy."
Just as everyone was thinking about Zhuge Liang's words, a rather young voice appeared behind everyone.
Following the sound, a young man in gorgeous clothes, with a white face and short beard, and a green and white soap robe came into everyone's eyes.
After seeing this person, everyone present had different expressions.
Some were smiling, while others were showing disdain. Of course...some people took one look at them and then turned away without even bothering to take a second look.
However, compared with these people, Zhuge Liang's look at this person was quite impressive.
"Youchang, what did you discover again?"
If Liu Chan were here, he would definitely find a way to slap this young man and push him into the river.
After all, there are not many people Liu Chan hates in his life, and this one is barely one.
Ma Su and Ma Youchang!
Just half a month ago, he was dismissed from all official positions as the governor of Yueqi because of the Nanzhong Rebellion. This is not because he, Ma Di, has anything to do with the Nanzhong Rebellion. The main reason is that he ran back in the name of delivering a message to Chengdu. to Chengdu.
Then Liu Bei, who was very angry, took him down directly.
If it weren't for his brother Ma Liang's great contribution to the Han Dynasty and his close relationship with Zhuge Liang, Ma Di would have lost his head several times now.
In the end, Zhuge Liang couldn't bear that his old friend's brother would end up in such a dismal end, so he took him to his side and reluctantly joined the army because of his poor abilities.
Fortunately, he did quite well during this period, and Zhuge Liang was somewhat satisfied with him. He felt that although he was not as gentle, courteous, thrifty and sage as his brother Ma Liang, he was also quite scheming.
It can be cultivated.
This time Na Ma Su spoke again, which made Zhuge Liang couldn't help laughing, and stretched out his hand to call him in front of him.
"You Chang, tell me everything you think about."
"The prime minister's thought at this time is probably to use ships to transport the people, and then let many soldiers and horses enter Nanjun, lock the main roads in Nanjun, and suppress Cao Pi's army from the flanks.
Joining forces with Sun Quan made Cao Pi fearful, forcing Cao Pi and Sun Quan to seek peace? "
"Well...then what do you think Ryo hasn't done yet?"
"If you want to do this, then someone must go to Wancheng to inform His Highness that he must guard Wancheng. Only then can Cao Pi be held back..."
