In the evening, Liu Bei finally woke up. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is also fortunate that Guan Yu recommended to Liu Bei the divine doctor Hua Tuo, who has a magical medical skill that is not inferior to Bian Que under the command of Tao Shang, and uses medicine and needles for Liu Bei, which quickly suppressed Liu Bei's agitated anger.

Liu Bei, who came to his senses, thought about the spring picture that An Lushan gave him, and he couldn't do it in his heart, but after experiencing the initial anger and blood, at this time, he was finally able to reluctantly calm down his mood, not too impulsive, and caused vomiting blood.

Regardless of his mental exhaustion, he forced himself to dress neatly and announced Zhuge Liang and other important civil and military ministers.

The ministers entered the inner tent, and when they saw Liu Bei's qi and blood recovering, they secretly praised Hua Tuo's medical skills, and they were all secretly relieved.

And the ministers more or less guessed the content of An Lushan's painting, and they all knew each other, and they tacitly agreed not to mention An Lushan's "begging for mercy".

"Your Majesty is the heavy responsibility of the Zhongxing Han, so you must take care of the dragon's body." Zhuge Liang was the first to comfort from the side.

"My body is clear, so you don't have to worry." Liu Bei flicked his hand, "Right now, Yun Chang has retreated to Yijing, the situation in the south is dangerous, and how to survive the current crisis is the most important thing." ”

Zhuge Liang had already prepared how to answer, and said without thinking: "Yun Chang only has 20,000 soldiers and horses left, even if the Yijing defense line is strong, I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist the attack of the 300,000 troops of the Wei army, and it will definitely not work without dividing the troops to rescue." ”

Liu Bei nodded, and without much hesitation, he immediately ordered another 30,000 troops from the 100,000 army to go south, and quickly rushed down Yijing to reinforce him.

"Increasing troops to the south can only solve the urgent need, after all, the pottery thief has an army of 300,000, even if Yun Chang gets the additional troops, I am afraid that it will not last long, and it must be His Majesty to personally lead the troops of the country to the south, so as to have a life-and-death duel with the pottery thief."

As soon as the words turned, Zhuge Liang's gaze glanced to the north, "And the key to whether Your Majesty can personally lead the army south is whether you can recover Jijing as soon as possible and put down the rebellion of the thieves, which is the most important thing related to the life and death of my Han." ”

"Then, according to the Prime Minister's opinion, how can I recapture Jijing as soon as possible?" Liu Bei asked.

Zhuge Liang sighed lightly and said meaningfully: "If you want to recover Jijing as soon as possible and quell the rebellion of the thieves, it is actually very simple. ”

Liu Bei's figure trembled slightly, and his expression fell silent.

He remembered Zhuge Liang's previous persuasion, the so-called Gaozu's courage was nothing more than to let him not care about the life and death of his only son Liu Chan, let go of the shackles, and attack Jijing without scruples.

If it was an hour ago, he would have categorically denied Zhuge Liang's suggestion, saying that he would not ignore his son's life and death to attack Jijing.

But now, he was deeply shaken.

After being humiliated by An Lushan's spring picture, he hated An Lushan to the core, and desperately wanted to capture Jijing, and personally shredded the rebel's corpse into thousands of pieces, humiliating the hatred with snow.

And Guan Yu's defeat and the urgent military situation of the 300,000 troops of the pottery merchant Linyishui also forced him into a desperate situation, making him realize that he had no time and no capital to drag it out like this.

He must make a choice between his son and the country.

"If Zen'er dies, I still have a chance to have another one, even if the chance is slim, but there is still a chance, if this hard-laid foundation is gone, everything will be over......"

Liu Bei's thoughts were racing, and there was a fierce ideological struggle in his heart, weighing the pros and cons, and weighing the gains and losses.

After struggling for a long time, the last trace of hesitation and scruples in Liu Bei's eyes finally disappeared, and all that was left was a cold and iron-like determination.

"The prime minister is reasonable, I am almost a child, and I have missed the overall situation of the world!"

Liu Bei took a deep breath, and a generous look appeared on his face, "Now that the claws of the pottery thief have stolen most of the world, I and my Han Kingdom have become the last beacon of the people of the world, the last hope, if I only care about the love of father and son, and ignore the great love for the people, so that my great Han country will be destroyed under the claws of the pottery thief, and the people of the world will always fall into the poison of the pottery thief, will I not become a sinner in the world!" ”

Liu Bei has a lot of love and little love, finds a theoretical basis for giving up his son, and shapes himself into the embodiment of justice, the last hope to fight against the evil potter, and the savior who saves the world.

Zhuge Liang was busy kneeling down and bowing, and praised with admiration: "Your Majesty is a martial artist, and his heart is for the community and the people of Li, which is really the luck of the people in the world, and the luck of my ancestors and ancestors of the Han Dynasty." ”

As soon as Zhuge Liang took the lead, the rest of Guan Xing, Wu Sangui, Huang Zhong, Yan Liang and other ministers were all relieved, and they all knelt down with Zhuge Liang and praised Liu Bei in unison.

Liu Bei came down from the steps at this time, and his gray face was a little relieved.

After taking a light breath, Liu Bei's face was murderous, and he shouted fiercely: "Spread my will, tomorrow the whole army will attack the city, I will kill all the traitors, and no one will be left!" ”

……

Yijing Line.

The 30,000 reinforcements sent by Liu Bei, who traveled under the stars and nights, finally arrived in time for Yijing.

got 30,000 fresh troops, and the number of soldiers and horses under Guan Yu's command once again reached 50,000.

So Guan Yu calmly dispatched and dispatched all the troops to enter the key points with Yi Jing as the core, and prepared to resist the attack of the 300,000 Wei army.

A day later, the 300,000 Wei troops led by the pottery merchant personally marched to the city of Yijing.

After witnessing the Yijing defense line, the potter was also full of emotion in his heart, knowing how strong this world-famous defense line was.

Thinking back then, Gongsun Chan was in internal and external troubles, and under the rebellion of his relatives, it was with this Yijing defense line that he confronted the powerful Yuan Shao for a year, and finally Yuan Shao was able to capture Yijing after Gongsun Chan fell into despair, had a mental breakdown, and committed suicide by fire.

After Yuan Shao destroyed Gongsun Zan and captured Youzhou, the Yijing defense line lost its usefulness and was gradually abandoned for many years.

Until a few years ago, the pottery merchants captured Jizhou, and after Liu Bei stole Youzhou, he was afraid that the pottery merchants would go north, so he requisitioned a large number of civil and material resources and made great efforts to rebuild the Yijing defense line.

After several years of hard work, Liu Bei's brand-new Yijing defense line is even stronger than Gongsun Zhan's time.

Among them, the main city of Yijing is made of stones, which is both high and thick, enough to resist the wild bombardment of the Wei army's heavenly thunder artillery.

Yi Jing's city gate is wrapped in thick iron sheets, even the most powerful dragon fury city breaker in Great Wei can definitely break through, and Liu Bei also built three urn cities for Yi Jing, even if the Wei army breaks through one city gate, there are still two waiting inside.

In addition to the impregnable main city, Liu Bei also built several sub-cities on the periphery of Yijing, connecting them with the main city with Yongdao.

Inside and outside the main city and vice city, Liu Bei also built countless arrow towers and earth platforms, equipped with a large number of strong bows and crossbows, forming a three-dimensional dense defense network.

In terms of weapons, Liu Bei has Ma Jun, a skilled craftsman with the talent of "Gongshen", so in recent years, he has imitated many advanced weapons of the Great Wei, in addition to the rainstorm crossbow, and the dragon wrath city breaking hammer, such as the heavenly thunder cannon, ballista, Shenwei ballista and other advanced weapons, have been the Han army's weapons.

Although due to the limited national strength, the Han State was unable to produce as many advanced weapons as the Great Wei, but it was barely enough to concentrate the limited weapons on the Yijing defense line as a defensive side.

With the three-dimensional defense system of Yijing City, coupled with advanced imitation weapons such as Heavenly Thunder Cannon and Shenwei Ballista, the solidity of Yijing's defense line has undoubtedly doubled.

It can be said that looking at the world, Yijing City can be called the strongest city that the potters have ever encountered.

Not one of them.

In addition to the central Yijing City, Liu Bei also built two strong ponds in the east, Bacheng and Fanyang City, all of which were backed by Juma Shui, and built earthen walls hundreds of miles long between each other, with three layers inside and outside, and fortresses, moats, traps, and mires in the middle.

It is precisely with such a strong defense line that stretches for hundreds of miles with Juma Water at its back, with Yi Jing as the core, and Bacheng and Fanyang City as the two wing nodes, that Guan Yu has the confidence to rely on the 50,000 army to block the attack of the 300,000 army of the Great Wei.

Of course, it was impossible for the potters to retreat and give up the attack because the Yijing defense line looked impregnable.

The harder the bone to gnaw, the more interested he was in giving it a try.

The 300,000 army forced the city to go down to the village, stretching for more than ten miles, the camp sea could not see the end at a glance, when the wind rose, countless battle flags rolled, as magnificent as the waves.

After the camp was completed, the pottery merchants sent a large army and launched an unprecedented onslaught on the Yijing defense line.

More than 1,000 heavenly thunder cannons, 3,000 Shenwei ballistae, and countless strong attack hard crossbows launched the most fierce bombardment on Yijing City in history.

The stone bullets and arrows in the sky are as dense as flying locusts, covering the sky and the sun, and it is magnificent.

The sound of bombardment one after another, as if the sky was pierced, the ground was shattered, and the entire line of Yijing South City was shrouded in a terrifying saturation blow.

This is already the strongest long-range attack that the potter has used since the conquest of the world.

Yi Jingcheng remained unmoved.

100,000 stone bullets and hundreds of thousands of sharp arrows were shot out, but the surface buildings of Yijing City were damaged, but the city walls were as stable as Mount Tai.

When the bombardment of the city was useless, the potters had no choice but to send a large army to attack with flesh and blood.

Wu Song, Yang Zaixing, Yue Fei, Cao Shen, Shi Dakai, Deng Ai and other generals urged an army of 300,000 to launch round after round of crazy attacks on Yijing City day and night.

After three days of fierce attack, the Wei army paid nearly 5,000 soldiers dead and wounded, in addition to destroying the ten arrow towers of the Han army and destroying several earthen platforms, it still failed to shake the city of Yijing.

It was dusk, and after another fruitless siege, the potters had realized that it was unrealistic to forcibly capture Yijing City, and they could only damage the lives of their soldiers in vain.

The potter decisively ordered to stop the onslaught of the past few days, and the whole army collected its troops and returned to the camp.

After paying for the casualties of more than 1,000 soldiers, the Wei army finally retreated to the camp like a falling tide, leaving only corpses everywhere.

Returning to the camp, the potters summoned Zhang Liang and Liu Ji's civil and military ministers to gather in the imperial tent to discuss the strategy of breaking the enemy.

The monarch and ministers discussed for a long time, and the final result was that Yi Jing could not attack by force, but could only outwit.

"What a way to outwit it, ovary, Berwyn, what do you have a plan?" The potter's gaze fell on the two resourceful gods.

Liu Ji and Zhang Liang, one was silent, the other frowned deeply, but there was no good plan for a while.

At this time, Han Xin's eyes lit up, and he arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, this Yijing City is indestructible, and it is really difficult to break through head-on, why don't we adjust our thinking, divide our troops to capture the overlord city or Fanyang City on the east and west wings, bypass the Yijing defense line from the flanks, and attack Yijing City directly from the north. ”

Han Xin's strategy lifted the spirits of the potters and everyone.

Zhang Liang said again: "General Han's idea is good, but Guan Yu has also been prepared, and has deployed 7,000 soldiers and horses in Bacheng and Fanyang City, and we have fewer troops, which is not enough to break through the second city. ”

Han Xin was asked by Zhang Liang's analysis, and he had nothing to do for a while.

The potter's excitement also subsided, and the sword eyebrows re-froze.

For a moment, there was silence in the big tent again.

After a long time, Yue Fei, who had never dared to interject, suddenly stood up and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, General Han's plan may not be successful, there is an excellent candidate here, if Your Majesty orders him to lead the army to implement General Han's plan, maybe it will have a miraculous effect." ”
