Chapter 725: The Battle of Jingnan 26
Since the Liangzhou army's goal was Lingyang City, Zhou Yu no longer sent scouts, he only needed to prepare for defense.
Even if a scout is sent, he will be assassinated by the Liangzhou army's exploration horses. Rather than wasting the lives of the soldiers in vain, it is better to keep their lives, and perhaps somewhere to use them.
Since the Liangzhou army on the front line of Dongting Lake can raid Yuannan City, it can also come to attack Lingyang City.
That would foreshadow...... The Jingnan Army suffered defeat on the battlefield on the front line of Dongting Lake.
With the courage and ruthlessness of the Liangzhou Army, the Jingnan Army was afraid of heavy losses and great damage to its vitality on the battlefield on the front line of Dongting Lake.
Therefore, Zhou Yu did not intend to ask Sun Ce for help, nor did he ask for help from Linxiang City, he was ready...... Preparation for coexistence and death with Zero Yang City.
Zhou Yu didn't go to Linxiang City for help, not because he had a disagreement with Sun Quan, but because he ...... There are not many garrisons in Linxiang City, and besides, the far water can't save the near fire.
In the absence of reinforcements outside and the lack of food and grass in the city, Zhou Yu still has a firm belief and the determination to die in defeat.
……
Zhou Yu and Zhang Ji hurriedly rushed from the west gate of Lingyang City to the east gate to arrange and inspect the city defense.
By the time it was over, it would be three quarters of an hour later.
Just after the hour, the red sun had climbed over the top of the mountain in the distance, and the mountains and rivers could no longer be stopped.
However, a little thick morning mist is still wrapped around the red sun, making it look very hazy.
"Enlightened Metropolitan Governor...... The enemy is coming from the east......"
"The Metropolitan Governor...... The enemy army is coming, and the front of its army is ...... It's all red armor cavalry"......
At this moment, from the corner towers at both ends of the city wall, there was a ...... The soldiers of the Jingnan Army gave early warnings one after another.
Hearing the soldier's early warning, Zhou Yu and Zhang Ji hurriedly put on their tiptoes and looked in the direction of the east.
Everywhere you look, you can only see ...... On the distant horizon, rows and rows of soldiers of the Liangzhou Army, either on the flat ground or on the gentle hills, were advancing unhurriedly.
Because of the distance, the appearance of the military formation of the Liangzhou Army, Zhou Yu and Zhang Ji, is not very real.
Zhou Yu, who has long regarded death as home, seems to be very patient.
He straightened his waist, his handsome and resolute figure, in the eyes of the soldiers of the Jingnan Army, he was so majestic and tall; It's so reassuring.
At this moment, the hearts of the soldiers of the Jingnan Army were full of fighting spirit.
It is not only their honor and their wish to be able to fight side by side with Zhou Dudu and live and die with Lujiang Zhou Lang.
The soldiers of the Jingnan Army thought so.
They are ready for everything, ready for bloody battles, ready for a different place, and ready to die at any time.
The military heart of the Jingnan Army, at this moment, is really twisted into a rope!
The fighting spirit of the Jingnan Army, at this moment, has really reached its peak!
The iron-blooded, ruthless, and incomparable Liangzhou army, you are not three-headed and six-armed, you also eat grains, you are also mortal in the flesh, and you will also bleed to death.
We, Jingnan Army, are not afraid of you!
We, the Jingnan Army, will not bow down to you!
Come on...... The brave Liangzhou Army!
Just on the banks of this Lishui River, in front of this Zero Yang City, under this firmament, under this round of red sun, let's fight to the death!
Today, let you have a look at the brave Liangzhou army...... Our Jingnan army men are amazing! Peerless Tang Gate fo
The surging fighting spirit of the Jingnan Army was naturally not felt by the Liangzhou Army.
……
At the middle of the day, the Liangzhou army had already marched to ...... Twenty miles outside the east gate of Lingyang City.
It was also at that time that the members of the Liangzhou Army's Tanma and Fengying discovered ...... Scouts of the Jingnan Army who came to spy on the military situation.
Originally, the sixteen scouts of the Jingnan Army had absolutely no hope of survival, and they were either killed by the Liangzhou Army's Tanma or assassinated by the members of the Wind Shadow.
However, I don't know what their lord thinks, he actually wants to leave the lives of two enemy scouts.
They could only carry out their lord's military orders without hesitation.
Obedience to military orders is the first duty of every soldier!
Even if it's ...... With this little episode of the Jingnan Army scouts, the marching speed of the Liangzhou Army will never be delayed, and they can still rush to the designated assembly place at the scheduled time.
I don't know...... Is it intentional on the part of his father-in-law, or is it his father-in-law deliberately slowing down the pace of the march......
Anyway, the end result is ...... When the Liangzhou army came to the east gate of Lingyang City, it was two quarters of an hour slower than the time that had been booked earlier.
In the history of the march of the Liangzhou Army, this situation has never been precedented.
At this time, the place six hundred steps outside the east gate of Lingyang City was where the Liangzhou army formation was located.
In the Liangzhou military formation, under the commander Daxu, Li Mu sat on the red dragon with a leisurely expression, and his eyes were slowly scanning the ...... Defense on Zero Sun City.
Fu Yan, Zhao Feng, and Gan Ling, straddling horses and holding guns, stood on the left and right of the coach Daxu, and they were ready to fight.
Fu Yan, Zhao Feng, and Gan Ling also looked up at the defense of Lingyang City. In the eyes of the three of them, they were solemn and solemn, and their eyes were full of murderous energy.
After a hundred breaths......
"Defense ...... of Zero Yang City"
Li Mu was still standing in the direction of Lingyang City, and he couldn't hear the slightest ripple in his voice, "How?" ”
"Lord!"
Fu Yan already had his own opinion in his heart, and immediately, he replied loudly: "The last general thinks...... The defense of this Zero Yang City is very proper! If you want to storm ...... I'm afraid that the damage is not light. ”
Zhao Feng nodded in agreement, and seconded: "With such careful defense, a strong attack is a last resort.
Lujiang Zhou Gongjin is really worthy of the name! ”
Gan Ling took over the conversation and said in a solemn voice: "Such a proper defense, except in the city of our Liangzhou army, it is the first time for my subordinates to see it!"
"Zhou Gongjin has the talent of a general!"
Li Mu nodded, took his eyes back from the direction of Zero Yang City, and said loudly with a bit of respect on his face: "A little city defense, for him, is just a matter of being caught, it's not surprising!"
Zero Yang City's defense, if it is really commonplace, then it is not ...... It's from Zhou Gongjin's hand!
Wait, be a good student to observe and learn! ”
Although Zhou Yu was an enemy of the Liangzhou army, Li Mu still recognized his strengths.
Fu Yan, Zhao Feng, and Gan Ling nodded yes!
Zhou Gongjin ...... It's an old friend of mine, too. ”
Li Mu looked in the direction of Lingyang City, and said loudly with a smile on his face: "Since you are in a hurry today, you always have to see each other."
Hearing what his father-in-law said, the expressions of Fu Yan and the three of them immediately became serious.
