"Kill, kill, kill!" Under Yangzhou Shouchun, the entire city wall of Shouchun was stained red with blood, the sound of fighting never stopped, Liu Bei's tens of thousands of troops kept attacking Shouchun, Shouchun's moat has been filled, and now it is a long drive, as long as the Shouchun city wall is taken, then it can be said that Yangzhou will be broken, as for a small Lujiang County, even Shouchun has been broken Lujiang County, what else can Lujiang County do?
Liu Bei has tens of thousands of elites, and Xu Shu only has 10,000 garrisons in his hands, but Xu Shu has the help of the people, which is a chess game to meet the opponent.
This is already the fourth day of the siege, Liu Bei has lost more than 10,000 people, and more people have died defending the city on the city wall, but Shouchun City still hasn't been able to take it down, "Mingjin collects troops!" Liu Bei took a deep look at Shouchun City, the sky was about to darken, and he could no longer continue to attack the city.
"Whew!" Seeing that the endless flow of Liu Beijun on the city wall finally retreated like a tide, Xu Shu really breathed a sigh of relief, the intensity of this attack is too great, four days, just like that, in four days, Xu Shu's 10,000 garrisons are less than two thousand, and even Xu Shu himself took his soldiers to the city wall to help, if it weren't for the support of the city wall, this Shouchun might have been broken a long time ago. Liu Bei also lost a lot, more than half of the Qingzhou Army and Yuzhou died, nearly 10,000 people, it stands to reason that Xu Shu is the one who gains, but Xu Shu can't laugh at all.
Because Liu Bei's Yuzhou army and Qingzhou army are half killed and wounded, he has the other half, and he Xu Shu still has less than 2,000 garrisons left, and the most important thing is that the grain and grass in the city have begun to be in short supply again, which is the biggest problem.
Xu Shu finally found a resistance on the city wall with the help of his personal guards to rest for a while, and after a while, a general in white armor walked up to the city wall, he went up the city wall and saw that the city wall was full of corpses, and his brows immediately wrinkled, there were only three thousand people really alive on the city wall, and most of these three thousand people had no light in their eyes, not even a thing called hope. Such an army can't be made into a few days, "Military Division, let Yun also join!" Zhao Yun hugged his fist at Xu Shu, Zhao Yun has also seen the siege of the city in the past few days, because there is a lack of fierce generals in Shouchun, whether it is Zhang Fei or Chen Zhi, as long as they rush up to the city wall, it will be a massacre, and the soldiers of the garrison are not opponents at all, and even Deng Yi was injured when he went up to block it. If it weren't for good luck, he might have been killed directly by Zhang Fei on the spot, and finally relied on the remaining two bed crossbows to force Zhang Fei and Chen Zhi to retreat, if there was an extra fierce general like Zhao Yun on the city wall, it would not become like this! So Zhao Yun wanted Xu Shu to let him go to the city wall, how to say that he was also a member of Liu Mang's army.
"No, General Zhao Yun. You still have very important things to do, and your troops must not go to war! Xu Shu said very heavily.
"What's important? Isn't it more important than guarding Shouchun?! Although Zhao Yun would not directly disobey the order, he was also anxious, and wanted Xu Shu to tell him what kind of task he needed to do.
"It's more important than guarding Shouchun!" Xu Shu looked at Zhao Yun, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he didn't want to tell Zhao Yun directly what kind of task this was, because it would be a heavy blow to morale. What Xu Shu wanted Zhao Yun to do was to leave with those drawings and classics before this Shouchun was broken, these things must not fall into the hands of Liu Beijun, if Zhao Yun is allowed to go to the battlefield now, who will leave with those things at that time!
"By the way, does the lord have any news?!" Xu Shu diverted Zhao Yun's attention and asked in order to divert the topic.
"Yes!" Zhao Yun nodded, he didn't go to the battlefield, Xu Shu let Zhao Yun be in charge of things in the city for the past few days. Therefore, the matter of contacting Liu Mang's main force is in Zhao Yun's hands, "The lord sent the last batch of grain and grass, a total of five thousand stones!" “
"Five thousand stones!" Xu Shu smiled and then became sad again, laughing because he had a new horse of grain and grass, he could hold on for a while, and the hatred was that even if he added these grains and grass, he wouldn't be able to last long.
"Where is the lord's army fighting in Yuzhou now!" Xu Shu continued to ask, Shouchun no longer expects reinforcements from Lujiang, and he Xu Shu also got the news, that is, the wolf rider in Bingzhou was ambushed in Hefei, and Lujiang can only protect himself now.
"The news says that Ruyin has been taken!" Zhao Yun didn't dare to hide anything, and said to Xu Shu.
"Ruyin?!" Xu Shu remembered that Ruyin should be a granary, and there should be a lot of grain and grass there! If Ruyin is won, I am afraid that the grain and grass crisis in Yangzhou can be reduced by half!
"Strategist. Most of Ruyin's grain and grass were carried away by Liu Bei's army before! When the lord arrived in Ruyin, Ruyin was almost an empty city! "Most?! Ruyin is a granary, and a small part of the grain and grass is also enough for the military.
Zhao Yun also seemed to see Xu Shu's thoughts: "There is also the remaining grain and grass in Ruyin City, which was also burned by Pang Tongyi, a friend of the military advisor!" There are 20,000 stones, and in the entire Ruyin, the lord has not received any grain and grass," Zhao Yun took out the case and handed it to Xu Shu.
"It's burning!" Xu Shu really smiled bitterly when he took the case, Pang Shiyuan, the Pang Tong outside the city, was really ruthless. 20,000 stone of grain and grass will be burned! It is also written on the case that this is Pang Tong's strategy in order to use Liu Mangjun's knife to kill Sun Gan in Liu Beijun's army! It's really a big arm, this Shiyuan, he Xu Shu is really underestimated.
"Lord, aren't coming back?!" Xu Shu continued to read the case in his hand. It said that Liu Mang's army had reached Ruyin, but the grain and grass were no longer enough to reach Runan, so they could only retreat, but they did not directly return to Shouchun.
"Yes, the lord has changed his course, and they have gone to the Yiyang generation!" Zhao Yun had known about this case for a long time.
"I'm not coming back!" Xu Shu said to himself, a little lost, because after all, he was still waiting for Liu Mang's reinforcements! But now the reinforcements are not coming! But then Xu Shu also laughed: "I shouldn't come back!" "This Shouchun has been dragged down because of the grain and grass, if Liu Mang's army comes back, it can only postpone the time when Shouchun is broken, and sooner or later it will collapse because of the problem of grain and grass, at that time, everyone died together, so it's better not to come back, the case says that they turned to Yiyang.
"Ziyang is really a good strategy!" Xu Shu also saw that this diversion should be Liu Ye's plan, in order to cut off the grain and grass of Liu Bei's army, and Liu Bei has now invaded Yangzhou. took most of the city in Yangzhou, all the way like a bamboo, but he has a huge shortcoming, that is, his battle line is too long, and now Yangzhou is equivalent to a strategic depth, as long as Liu Mang cuts off the grain and grass of Liu Bei's army, then Liu Bei can only retreat.
……
Liu Ye Liu Ziyang? There are also people in Liu Beijun's camp chewing on this name, but this time it is not a compliment to Liu Ye. It's a kind of hatred for Liu Ye, because the information that Liu Bei is getting now is from the scouts in Yuzhou, and dozens of scouts have died for this letter, and finally a scout sent the letter, because what is written on the letter is that the official road from Yuzhou to Yangzhou has been blocked. Most of the trails have also been truncated, and the starting point of the truncation is not Uiyang, but Gwangju! It was Liu Pi who didn't take down Gwangju for four days, but he didn't expect to let go of Gwangju's people, but now it has become a nail nailed behind Liu Bei.
"Liu Ye, Liu Ziyang! is worthy of being the person who can chase Cao Cao out in the middle of the day! Pang Tong is also looking at this information, and he is also sighing, this Liu Ye and Liu Ziyang are really not simple, Liu Ye has appeared in Pang Tong's eyes since Liu Mangjun entered Yuzhou. Liu Mang's ability to take Yingshang and Ruyin so quickly is not only a matter of strong troops, but also Liu Ye's strategy, when Pang Tong cared about Liu Ye the most, it was when he got the news that Sun Gan, who should have been killed by Liu Mang's army in Runan, appeared again, although he was very wolf when he went back, but he really survived.
This made Pang Tong frown, but he wanted Sun Gan to die, it was a series of serial schemes, let Sun Gan go to practice the empty city plan first. If Liu Mang's army is dominated by military generals, then he may attack the city directly, and Sun Qian will not be able to escape! Even if the empty city plan succeeds, Sun Gan will not be able to escape, because the men and horses sent by Pang Tong will trap Sun Gan in one place, and sure enough, Sun Gan was caught, and Sun Gan will definitely confess the remaining grain and grass in Ruyin if he wants to live. And Pang Tongyi burned the grain and grass with the fire, and the pretended name was still Sun Gan's order, so that as long as Liu Mangjun was angry, Sun Gan would definitely die. This is a knife to kill people, and Sun Qian, who was originally stable, will definitely die, but now he has survived!
He can survive is definitely not what Sun Gan said, Liu Mangjun wanted to burn him alive, but he should not die, he finally found a water tank, he hid in the water tank to survive, if Liu Mang wanted to kill Sun Gan, he would definitely give Sun Gan a happy heart, even if he wanted to burn him, Sun Gan found the water tank, such a big fire, there is a water tank, it should also be boiled to death by the boiling hot water in the water tank, but Sun Gan survived, which shows that Liu Mangjun did not mean to kill him at all.
And Liu Mang's current military advisor is Liu Ye, this must be Liu Ye's strategy, Pang Tong will not say this, because he calculates Sun Qian, this is a secret matter, how can he say it clearly! But Liu Ye was remembered by Pang Tong, and now this Liu Ye is here again, seeing that Runan can't be defeated, he doesn't return to the army Shouchun, but goes directly to Guangzhou to cut off Liu Beijun's grain and grass, this is really a desperate plan! This is the rhythm of wanting to keep Liu Beijun in Yangzhou, because the main force of Liu Mang's army is 10,000, if you don't deal with Liu Mang, the grain and grass are not guaranteed, go and deal with Liu Mang, it is impossible to win this victory without 20,000 or 30,000, so as to give Shouchun a chance to breathe.
"Lord, we should open up the grain road first, otherwise once the grain and grass are not guaranteed, this army will be over!" When Chen Zhi heard the news, he immediately stood up and hugged his fist towards Liu Bei, the three armies did not move the grain and grass first, and if there was no grain and grass, there would be a fart fight.
"Yes, brother, give me Lao Zhang 10,000 horses, or give me the white-eared heavy armor to Lao Zhang, I will help you clean up that Shi Laozi Shu King Liu Mang, I not only want to open up the grain road, I also want to give the head of the King of Shu to my brother!" Zhang Fei was directly ashamed.
An army of 10,000? Now Liu Bei's army adds up to only 20,000, and the 35,000 army has lost more than 10,000, so how can you attack the city if you Zhang Fei is given 10,000?
"The last general of the lord thinks that our army cannot be withdrawn!" Liao Hua also expressed his opinion, he is now the chief general of the Yuzhou army, so he naturally has the opportunity to enter the camp.
"Oh?!" Liu Bei is frowning, should he defeat Liu Mang's army first and then clean up Shouchun, now this Liao Hua put forward another idea, which couldn't help but make Liu Bei interested, you must know that the reason why Liao Hua was replaced by Liu Bei and Liu Bi was because Liao Hua ambushed Xiliang Tieqi and was brave and strategic!
"Lord, there is a cloud of military law, one drum and then three and exhaustion, our army fights Shouchun, if Shouchun is captured in one fell swoop, then Yangzhou is at your fingertips. This Lujiang County will also look at the wind and surrender, and then let General Guan in Runan send troops, and the two armies will attack Gwangju, then Liu Mang's army will have no way to escape, only defeat! Liao Hua's words made Liu Bei's eyes light up, which made Liao Hua a little happy: "Lord, if we withdraw our troops." Then the impression left on Shouchun Lu Bujun is not good, they think that if their reinforcements arrive, their morale will be greatly boosted, and on the contrary, the morale of our army may be reduced! And Shouchun Lu Bujun can also rely on this time to rest! At that time, even if our army wins, it will be difficult for Liu Mang to win Shouchun! ”
"That makes sense!" Liu Bei nodded, now the withdrawal of troops has a really big impression on morale, once the soldiers think that there is a problem in the rear, then the morale of the army will be even more unstable. If the battle is decided, then it will be fine, but if Liu Mang is delayed for some time, it will really be uncertain. This moat was finally filled, so it can't be filled again! "Where's the military advisor!" Liu Bei looked at Pang Tong, Pang Tong's opinion was very important, and Liu Bei would basically listen to Pang Tong's opinion.
"My lord, my opinion is to withdraw. And don't withdraw! Pang Tong said what he thought.
Withdraw, or withdraw? Does the military advisor mean to divide the troops? Leave part of it to continue to attack Shouchun, and part of it to deal with Liu Mang's army, "The military advisor is right, it's reasonable, I Lao Zhang likes it, let me Lao Zhang go, I will definitely help my brother take the head of the King of Shu!" Zhang Fei grinned.
"Huh!" Pang Tong looked at Zhang Fei and shook his head with a smile, "Third general, you may not be able to go this time!" ”
"Why?!"
"Because my army cannot be divided!" Pang Tong said with certainty. Liu Bei now has 20,000 soldiers and horses left, how can he divide the troops, the division of troops is the result of being divided and broken, I really think that Liu Mang's army in Gwangju is vegetarian! If he was a vegetarian, he would not have invaded the hinterland of Yuzhou, which made Liu Bei's army restless.
"Regardless of the division of troops, how can we protect the grain road, and how can we fight without grain and grass!"
"yes. Military advisor, without food and grass, not only the army's heart is turbulent, but the soldiers may also starve to death! ”
"Don't be in a hurry!" Pang Tong waved his hand and suppressed the discussion, "We can't divide the troops. But don't forget jì, we still have an ally! Pang Tong said to the generals below: "Our ally, General Zhang Xiu, can divide the army!" Pang Tong said his thoughts, Zhang Xiu has 20,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry, even if it was ambushed by Liaohua, and thousands of people were consumed when he fought the wolf riding in Bingzhou, but there are also about 15,000 people and horses, and it must be no problem to divide thousands of people to protect the grain and grass, and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is fast, and it will be able to return to help soon
"Please Zhang Xiu, don't give benefits, how can he come!" Zhang Fei was still unhappy with Zhang Xiu.
"Hehe, everything you can buy is not expensive!" Pang Tong smiled and told Zhang Fei that even if he could take Yangzhou, it would be worth it to use most of Yuzhou's heritage, and the battle of Guandu would be decided, and time was precious.
"Then the military advisor means that we continue to attack Shouchun? But what if Xiliang Tieqi can't take those Liu Mangjun?! We're running out of food! Is it really necessary to withdraw troops at that time? "If the Xiliang Iron Cavalry can't deal with Liu Mang's army, then the fun will be great, the grain road is gone, and now Liu Bei's army is not enough food and grass.
"We are short of food and grass, do you think they will have enough food and grass in this spring!" Pang Tong smiled indifferently: "We only have tens of thousands of horses!" But in this city, there are millions of people, who can't hold on? And don't forget it, although we don't have enough food and grass, we can borrow it! "There is more grain and grass in Shouchun City than Liu Beijun, but there is not as much as Liu Beijun when it is evenly distributed, and their initial strategy is to make Shouchun Lu Bujun collapse because of the problem of grain and grass!
"Borrow? With whom to borrow?! Zhang Fei asked unreasonably
"Who else, of course it's Zhang Xiu! Zhang Xiujun has a lot of grain and grass, in addition to his own brought, there is also Liu Beijun gave, it can be said that most of the grain and grass are Liu Beijun is raising Zhang Xiujun, Zhang Xiujun's heritage is really a lot, just the last time Xiliang Tieqi was ambushed, Liu Bei gave 10,000 grain and grass to Zhang Xiu, it is okay to lend those for use first!
"Let Zhang Xiu send troops, as well as borrow grain and grass, you may have to do it yourself!" Zhang Xiuke is a master who swallows it and doesn't think about him spitting it out, didn't you see Pang Tong's plan to send gold! Zhang Xiuming knew that it might be a ploy, but he still bit the hook without hesitation, because he was greedy for money, and this time he wanted him to spit it out, so he had to pay three times the price!
"Well, teach me here!" Liu Bei sighed and said, knowing that he might be blackmailed by Zhang Xiu, but he had to do it as a last resort, after all, the whole world is nothing compared to this little bit of interest in front of him.
