Reborn Duke In Three Kingdoms

Chapter 305

In Nanyang County, Liu Songyang and Nansong are under the control of Nanyang County.

On March 25, the army of 25000 under Liu Bei came to the city.

This time, Liu Bei did not send people to surrender, or even redundant words, directly ordered the siege. Under the command of Liu Xiu, the 25000 troops launched an orderly attack.

In fact, Liu Bei and Sun Quan originally agreed on the first day of May, but finally chose to move ahead.

The longer the delay, the more worried Liu Bei was.

Liu Bei attacked the city, and Liu Xiu's garrison on the city tower firmly defended.

Five thousand barbarians, three thousand elite sent by wenpin, plus more than five thousand soldiers from Xiangyang City. There are more than 13000 soldiers in Xiangyang.

Not only that, Xiangyang City's catapult, rhubarb crossbow, bow and arrow and other equipment are all ready.

Food, too, is enough.

Under such circumstances, Liu Bei attacked Xiangyang City for three consecutive days, but failed to move forward. The most important thing is that Xiangyang City is surrounded by a moat, which makes it difficult for Liu Bei to cross.

For a time, more than 20000 of Liu Bei's soldiers froze outside the city, unable to move forward.

After the war, Liu Xiu took a rest on the tower.

Huang Chengyan, Huang Yueying and others command the attendants, carrying a big pot to the upper floor of the city, and then distribute meat cakes to all the soldiers. Not only Huang Chengyan, but also Pang Degong and Pang's family took action to shuttle on the city tower.

The resistance of Liu Bei's army, Huang and Pang people have moved into the city, to avoid being affected in lumen mountain.

After all the work, Huang Yueying comes to Liu Xiu.

In her hand, Huang Yueying took a bowl of broth and three meat cakes. She looked worried and said, "my husband has been working hard all day. I have something to eat. It's still a while before the dining room starts. "

After Liu Xiu took it, he took three or two stutters, drank the broth and asked Huang Yueying to go back to her house to have a rest.

Then, Liu Xiu inspected the city upstairs.

One day after the battle, although Liu Bei's offensive was defeated, many soldiers under Liu Xiu's command were injured. Liu Xiu needed to appease and encourage them.

The morale inside the city is still high, but Liu Bei outside the city can't wait.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei took their seats in the big account of the army.

This time, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei fought in the south. Zhuge Liang and Chen Zhi stayed in Xinye to take charge of the overall situation and avoid problems in the rear.

Liu Bei looked cold and said in a deep voice: "second brother, third brother, we stormed for three days. In these three days, we lost nearly a thousand soldiers, but we didn't move forward. The city of Xiangyang is solid. If you don't take Xiangyang quickly, it will affect the whole war situation. At that time, it will be us who will suffer. "

Liu Bei was also puzzled about how to attack the city. He sighed and continued: "the military adviser provoked Fu Xun and Liu Xian to make them prepare to capture Liu Xiu, but they were both killed, so that they could not create civil strife for Liu Xiu. Now we attack the city from the outside. The city of Xiangyang is solid. If we want to attack it head on, I'm afraid it will be difficult to succeed in ten days and a half months. "

As soon as Zhang Fei heard about it for ten days and a half a month, he suddenly got anxious and yelled: "not to mention what will happen after ten days and a half a month, the consumption of the ten days and a half a month, and the number of casualties of the soldiers, it's already very terrible. After three days of siege, a thousand soldiers have been killed and wounded. In the long run, it will be us who can't hold on first. Brother, we can't delay. "

Liu Bei was silent when he heard the speech.

Suddenly, Guan Yu said, "brother, I remember lumen mountain is outside the city. Not only Pang Degong lives in lumen mountain, but also Liu Xiu's father-in-law Huang Chengyan lives in lumen mountain, right? "

Liu Bei's sword eyebrows picked and said, "no, I can't do that."

At this time, Liu Bei understood Guan Yu's intention, and was obviously ready to seize these people, and then threatened Liu Xiu.

Guan Yu's eyes narrowed and said, "brother, we won't hurt Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan. However, now long attack, only with the help of them, let Liu Xiu open the gate. As long as Liu Xiu opened the gate, he would let them go. After all, they are famous people in Jingzhou and can't be ignored. But it's a matter of urgency. That's the only way to do it. "

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "once you do this, you will lose your heart."

The soft expression on Guan Yu's face disappeared, and there was a shadow on his face. His eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he said in a deep voice: "brother, if we can't even conquer Xiangyang, what kind of people are there? Brother, have you forgotten how Liu Xiu humiliated us? Have you forgotten the 100000 stone grain? Have you forgotten about Zhao Yun? "

After hearing this, Liu Bei also showed a trace of ferocity on his face.

A moment later, Liu Bei ordered Guan Yu to lead a team of cavalry to mount lumen.

Late at night, Guan Yu dragged his tired body and returned to the barracks with his soldiers.

Guan Yu looked disappointed and said: "big brother, there is only one person left to guard the yard. This is true of the Pang family and the Huang family. No one left. According to Huang's gatekeeper. Liu Xiu not only moved the Pang and Huang families into Xiangyang City, but also brought Xu Shu's mother to live in the city. It's impossible to use Liu Xiu's people as a threat. ""Hiss!"

Liu Bei took a cool breath and looked dignified.

At this time, Liu Bei felt difficult, even such a mean trick would not work, Liu Xiu thought too carefully.

Everything seems to be in Liu Xiu's expectation.

Guan Yu said in a deep voice: "brother, there is another situation that I think is very suspicious."

"What's the situation?" Liu Bei asked.

Guan Yu, with sharp eyes, replied: "according to Liu Xiu's plan, Liu Xiu has deployed the first army in Jiangling County. Now Xiangyang City is under siege, but wenpin, who is stationed in Jiangling County, has nothing to do with it. It seems that he is watching Liu Xiu under siege. What is the intention? "

"Why?" Liu Bei asked

Guan Yu replied: "I think wenpin is waiting for the opportunity. Once the soldiers under the elder brother's command are tired, wenpin may suddenly launch an attack and give the elder brother a fatal blow at one stroke. "

Zhang Fei's expression was serious. On his rough face, he also had a worried expression. He said: "the second brother is right. The situation is very delicate. We must consider another way to break the city."

Liu Bei looked at Guan Yu and asked, "what's your second brother's plan?"

Guan Yu replied, "I suggest that some soldiers be assigned to attack Zhonglu County, Yicheng County and Bian County in the south of Xiangyang. As long as you take these cities, Xiangyang will become a lonely city. "

After hearing this, Liu Bei solemnly said: "the second brother's analysis is reasonable. This time, Liu Xiu must be brewing a plot. It's just that the plot this time is too weird to understand. "

Guan Yu said: "no matter how much, first according to the established ideas, go south to conquer the city."

Liu Bei nodded and agreed, and began to give the order.

Early the next morning, Liu Bei left 15000 elite soldiers and sent 10000 troops south to Zhonglu county. Zhonglu county is not a big county, and Zhonglu County, to a great extent, relies on Xiangyang County, with weak troops and small walls. So that after Liu Bei's 10000 elite arrived in Zhonglu County, he lost only a few hundred soldiers and easily captured Zhonglu county.

Liu Bei's army conquered Zhonglu county and quickly went south to Yicheng County.

Yicheng County has thousands of elites. In addition, the Ma family in Yicheng has done their best to send all the strength of the family to the city to resist. Under the leadership of the Ma family in Yicheng, other ethnic groups in Yicheng County also sent their own private soldiers to resist.

A small city of Yicheng has made up tens of thousands of soldiers.

After one day's attack, Liu Bei's army didn't get any benefits, so they had to camp outside the city.

The news of Zhonglu county and Yicheng County quickly spread to Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu looked serious. He looked at Yi Ji and Kuai Liang and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Ji Bo, Mr. Zi Rou, now Liu Bei's siege forces have been greatly weakened. According to the news from the front, Liu Bei's current strength is only about 15000, or even less than 15000. Under such circumstances, I think we can attack Liu Bei. If you don't want to defeat Liu Bei, at least let Liu Bei get into trouble. "

"Yes! I agree with the Lord's decision. "

Kuai Liang's eyes showed a confident look, and he said in a loud voice: "it's a taboo to divide troops before a battle. Now Liu Bei sent some soldiers to the south to capture other cities as a foundation. But he has forgotten that the Lord's military strength is so strong that he can not only defend himself but also fight. "

Yi Ji also said: "I also agree with the war!" Shamoko has not made any contribution under Liu Xiu's command. Now he takes the initiative to attack, which means that his opportunity has come.

Shamoko didn't even think about it. He said: "Lord, shamoko is willing to be a pioneer."

Five thousand barbarians under his command stayed in the city to guard the city. This way, shamoko doesn't like it. Only out of the city to fight, that's what Wu Xi'er Lang should do.

Huang Hu was also unwilling to lag behind, and said in a loud voice: "Lord, the 1000 Flying Tiger battalion under his humble command has been established for some time. This period of time, has not been on the battlefield. This time, it's time for the flying tiger camp to prove its strength. "

Two tiger generals rub their hands and take the initiative to fight.
