Chapter 317: Shang Yong Succeeds Cai Mao Arrives
Early in the morning of the second day, Liu Yu poured out of the nest and set up a posture at the east gate of Shangyong City.
After a night's rest, Liu Yu's soldiers and horses can be said to have nourished their spirits, all of them are freshly dressed and angry, and they look at the defenders of the Shangyong City Wall with an unruly face.
On the other hand, on Zhang Lu's side, their state is not very good. From Zhang Lu to ordinary soldiers, few of them slept well last night.
Liu Yu rode a high-headed horse and came to Shangyong City and shouted: "Zhang Gongqi, why don't you come out to see this king." ”
Zhang Lu originally wanted to reason with Liu Yu, but someone stopped him.
Yan Pu, Zhang Lu's advisor, suggested: "The lord can't talk to Liu Yu rashly. ”
"Strategist, why is that?" Zhang Lu asked puzzled.
Yan Pu said cautiously: "The lord doesn't know anything. Liu Yu is known for his eloquence. Often watch the sharp teeth and sharp mouth to hit the other party's morale. The lord didn't know about his conspiracy, and he was afraid that he would be calculated by Liu Yu. ”
In fact, what Yan Pu means is Zhang Lu, you can't talk about Liu Yu at all, so don't be embarrassed.
"What the military advisor said makes sense. Fortunately, there is a military advisor, otherwise I would have fallen for Liu Yu's conspiracy. Zhang Lu said with a smile.
Yan Pu smiled bitterly and shook his head, if he had listened to him earlier, Zhang Lu would not have been in such a situation.
When Zhang Lu wanted to send troops to Shangyong, Yan Pu strongly objected, thinking that Hanzhong had too few troops and insufficient self-protection, so he rashly sent troops, if it aroused the disgust of the princes, then Zhang Lu was likely to be invaded by others.
But Zhang Lu didn't listen, and after capturing Shangyong, he also sarcastically mocked Yan Pu. Now that the situation is critical, Zhang Lu thinks of Yan Pu again.
"Lord, let's retreat. Shangyong City couldn't stop Liu Yu's army of 100,000 at all. Yan Pu didn't know what Zhang Lu was thinking, in this situation, he should have withdrawn his troops a long time ago.
Zhang Lu began to hesitate again, he was a little unwilling, and he was afraid that Liu Yu would have to make an inch, and he didn't know how to choose for a while.
Liu Yu waited under the city for a long time, but Zhang Lu didn't come forward, feeling a little offended in face.
"The whole army is ready to capture Shangyong for this king!" Liu Yu angrily gave the order.
With an order, Liu Yu's troops began to move.
"Kill!" Liu Yu's army let out an earth-shattering shout of killing, and the siege troops rushed towards Shangyong City with various siege equipment.
"Cheer me up!" Zhang Lu hurriedly ordered all the soldiers to start preparing.
Liu Yu's archers continued to rain arrows at Shangyong City, and Zhang Lu and the others didn't dare to raise their heads and hurriedly dodged.
Liu Yu's siege troops, taking advantage of this gap, quickly advanced and soon came to the city wall.
"Retreat all!" Before contact, Zhang Lu said a shocking sentence.
"The lord is retreating now, which is very disadvantageous to our army." Yan Pu had a black line, he really couldn't understand what Zhang Lu was thinking now, and it would be too late to retreat now.
"No retreat!? Don't you see a whole bunch of warships on the riverside? Who else is there besides Liu Biao's sailor? If they unite, it will be difficult for our army to withdraw. Zhang Lu pointed to the riverside and shouted angrily at Yan Pu.
Yan Pu took a look, but there was a boat shadow on the riverside, with a big Cai character on the banner, it was Cai Mao, the commander of the Jingzhou Navy Army.
"Lord Wise, our army should move immediately now, otherwise they will be surrounded by Shangyong." Yan Pu hurriedly agreed with Zhang Lu. Yan Pu is worthy of reading the book, and it is much better to say that the retreat is a transfer.
"The whole army immediately moved to Hanzhong." Zhang Lu also reacted.
Zhang Lu's soldiers and horses did not dare to slack off, and all of them came down from the city wall and headed for the west gate of Shangyong City.
Liu Yu wondered, why Zhang Lu would withdraw his troops at this time, it was unreasonable.
Liu Yu's subordinates don't care what you're doing when you retreat, as long as there is no order from Liu Yu to suspend the attack or withdraw the troops, they only have the goal of attacking.
Zhang Lu quickly left Shangyong, looked back at Liu Yu's troops who had entered Shangyong, and thought to himself, Liu Yu, aren't you seeking justice for Liu Biao, now Liu Biao's people are coming, see how you deal with it, Lao Tzu will go back first.
"Lord, Cai Mao is here." Chen Gong ran to Liu Yu's side and whispered.
Liu Yu turned his head to look behind him, the riverside was already full of warships, no wonder Zhang Lu retreated so simply. A middle-aged military general stepped down from a huge warship.
Liu Yu's eyes narrowed, what are you doing here? Did you come here to grab the land?
Cai Mao walked straight up to Liu Yu and said with a smile: "Cai Mao, under the seat of Jingzhou Thorn History, meet the prince." The last general thanked the prince for regaining Shangyong for my Jingzhou. ”
Cai Mao said the purpose as soon as she came, and sure enough, she came to grab the land.
Liu Yu didn't bird him at all, and walked directly to Shangyong City with all his henchmen. Leaving Cai Mao there, it was extremely embarrassing.
Cai Mao did come to grab the territory, Liu Biao's order was to let him hold on to Xiangyang, but Cai Mao felt that Liu Yu attacked Shangyong, and he could take the opportunity to bring Shangyong back. So Cai Mao came here and was ready to reason with Liu Yu, but Liu Yu's attitude had already explained everything.
When Cai Mao was about to follow, a figure stopped him and shouted, "Where is the thing, don't get out of here!" ”
Cai Mao was furious, he had never been scolded by others, he pulled out his sword and looked at blocking his own people, but just one glance, Cai Mao was instigated.
It was Lu Bu who stopped him.
Lu Bu lit up Fang Tian's painting halberd and said coldly: "Hmph, you still want to be rough?!" It's good that Ben hasn't seen blood today. ”
Cai Mao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he knew who was in front of him, even if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he had heard of it.
"General Lu, I want to discuss something with the prince below." Cai Mao put down the sword and said flatteringly.
Lu Bu scolded: "What a noble body the prince is, how can you see a cat and a dog like you." Still discussing? Get out of here, or don't blame Ben for being unkind. ”
Cai Mao's heart was full of anger, but she didn't dare to attack.
At this moment, Dian Wei ran over and said, "Cai Mao, right? The head of my family has something to tell you. ”
"What does the prince command?" Cai Mao said respectfully.
"My lord said that he doesn't have time to deal with you now. You better go back to Xiangyang obediently, otherwise, you will do it yourself! There seem to be a lot of people in the Cai family in Jingzhou. Dian Wei tried to learn Liu Yu's tone to speak.
Cai Mao understood that Liu Yu was threatening him. Cai Mao is the head of the Cai family in Jingzhou, and Liu Yu is threatening him with the entire Cai family.
"The meaning of the prince is understood. I wish the prince a victory. Cai Mao could only choose to retreat, turn around and leave.
Liu Yu stood on the city wall and looked at the departing Jingzhou Navy, sneering in his heart, it is his strength to come out to pick peaches at a critical moment, Cai Mao, you are still a little tender.
