"General, the enemy army is besieging but not attacking, I'm afraid there is fraud in it?"

"I also know this, but the enemy army is large, and our army is only 30,000 troops, even if I know that the other party has other ideas, we are helpless!" Wen Ping said calmly.

The gap between the enemy and me is so huge, no matter how powerful the civil recruitment is, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. What's more, Wen Ping is not good at attacking, he belongs to the kind of general who is good at defending. Yuan Shu took a fancy to this and put him in Nanyang, an isolated place of four battles, not asking him to be able to destroy the enemy army, as long as he could defend Wancheng, it would be a great achievement.

Yuan Shu knew very well that he occupied the second county of Jingyang, and the battle line was very long, and the easiest places to be captured were two places, one Nanyang and one Jiujiang. These two counties are the gateways to the two states of Jingyang, and once they are taken, the flames of war will be burned into the two states.

Although there is a risk of the Yangtze River, the threat of these two counties being taken is not great, but it is still a trouble. Compared with Jiujiang, which is located in the hinterland and surrounded by heavy guards, Nanyang is even more difficult to defend, according to Jinling, it is a basin itself, the terrain is flat, easy to attack and difficult to defend. Therefore, at the end of the Han Dynasty, the territory of Nanyang County was inseparable from Jingzhou for a long time, and it has been wandering between the three counties.

This kind of place, if it is the center of the world in the peaceful and prosperous times, can be a tasteless chicken rib in the troubled times. After all, it is not as dangerous as Chang'an Luoyang, and it is completely an enclave.

Yuan Shu also knew this, so he sent Wen Ping, the best guard among his subordinates, to garrison this place. In history, if Dongwu and Guan Yu suffered so many losses at his hands, it should be more than enough to hold Nanyang. After all, Liu Bei is restrained by Cao Cao, and Li Yu and Guo Yan can't even keep Chang'an, so the pressure to stick to Nanyang is not too big.

"But General, the other party obviously has an attempt, and we have to guard against it! Why don't you lead the army out of the city to test it? The lieutenant is also a man with brains, proposed.

"There is no need for this, Wancheng has high walls, and the people in the city are attached, and the other party is helpless even if he has a plan. Now the best way is to brake quietly, our troops are insufficient, so we can only hold on, and it may be useless to go out of the city to try. Wen Ping said with a frown.

Today's Wancheng is completely a military castle, and even if it is besieged by 100,000 troops for a short period of time, Wen Ping is not worried at all. Wen Ping is worried about the problem of reinforcements, and the other party is in such a position, and he is afraid that it is not his own calculation. Aside from reinforcements, he really couldn't think of what the other party's goal could be.

But even though there were all kinds of speculations in his heart, he didn't show it at all. A general is a soldier's courage, and the most taboo thing for a general is emotional instability. Now that Wancheng is surrounded by regiments, no matter how much suspicion he has, he can't convey it, and it won't help if he says it, but it will disturb the morale of the army.

"The order was given, and all the defenders brace themselves and monitor the movements of the enemy day and night. Although the enemy army has many soldiers and horses, it consumes a lot of grain and grass every day, and we have already cleared the wilderness, and the enemy army will not be able to hold out for long. Moreover, our reinforcements will arrive soon, as long as you are cautious, the other party will definitely not be able to capture Wancheng. Wen Ping said confidently.

When the surrounding soldiers heard these confident words, their morale rose a little again. However, they didn't know that Wen Ping was worried. The army of 100,000 is consumed here, and the other party's plan is definitely not simple.

……

"Sergeant Yuan is indeed elite, and with this city, I'm afraid it will be really difficult for me to take it in a short period of time." Looking at the tiger-backed and energetic soldiers on the city wall, Liu Ye said with emotion.

The last time he fought with Yuan Shujun, Liu Ye had already felt the elite of Yuan Bing in Guan Yu's army, but he thought that it was only because the lone army was deep, so the soldiers sent were so elite, but he didn't want the defenders of Wancheng to be the same.

"Humph! The earth dog is just rubble, and it can be cut down with a knife! Guan Yu heard this on the side, and snorted disdainfully. However, the jealousy in his eyes was no less than Liu Ye.

"What the second brother said is that as long as the military division gives me 20,000 troops, I can take it today!" Zhang Fei, who has a reckless personality, always speaks so arrogantly.

"Yes, yes, yes. The two generals were brave and invincible, so they naturally didn't care about these Yuan troops. However, our goal this time is not this Wancheng, and we hope that the two generals will be patient and take care of the overall situation. Finding that he was careless in his words, he accidentally provoked these two people again, Liu Ye hurriedly made up for it.

After listening to Liu Ye, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the two tsunderese, calmed their anger a little, and turned to think about it in their hearts.

Seeing that these two were much more obedient than before, and they could be appeased so easily, Liu Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and there was still a faint pride in his heart.

It's not easy! After a lot of hard work, he finally got the approval of these two goods, and he was really afraid that these two people would always rely on what would be unacceptable to the foreign monarch's orders and not listen to the command.

It is really not easy to control Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Guan Yu is proud and Zhang Feimang. Historically, even a person as capable as Zhuge Liang could hardly control these two goods.

When the Five Tiger Generals were divided, in order to appease Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang did not hesitate to surrender his identity to compliment this product, which calmed his heart. Among the five tiger generals, only Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun were barely recognized by him, and the other two Guan Yu were not worthy of being in the same column as him. You must know that Huang Zhong has fought hundreds of rounds without winning or losing, and Ma Chao is a ruthless character who is a fierce opponent of Zhang Fei and Cao Cao, who cut his beard and robe.

"General Guan, you must send more scouts to explore the way, and you must ensure that you get the news of reinforcements as soon as possible."

"Hmm!"

Hearing this undetectable promise, Liu Ye relieved his heart and looked at Wen Ping in Wancheng from afar, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Megatron's Yuan Highway! This time I will give you a taste of failure.

……

A few days later, the news of Zhang Liao's army was finally inquired, and Liu Ye hurriedly took Guan Yu to lead an army of 50,000 to meet the battle, leaving Zhang Fei to continue to besiege Wancheng.

After such a long period of conquest, it is no secret what kind of legion talent the world's famous generals are. To deal with Zhang Liao's legion talent of defeating the strong with the weak, Guan Yu's thunder strike type is more suitable. In other words, Guan Yu's talent is already strong and abnormal, basically able to restrain most of the legion talents in the world, and it is versatile.

Otherwise, why is Guan Yu so arrogant? Why are you proud if you don't have three points? They are all such a handful of people standing at the top of the generals, and everyone knows how many catties and taels they have, even against Lu Bu, Guan Yu also has something to be proud of.

But Zhang Liao was not a simple character, and force and legion talent were not the only factors that determined the victory of the war. The quality of Yuan's soldiers was far from being able to defeat this group of well-trained recruits under Guan Yu's command.

The two sides fought several battles, without a win, and finally a stalemate. After all, both sides have their own thoughts, and no one wants to die. Zhang Liao's side did not believe that if a war of attrition was started, Liu Beijun, who had no foundation, would be able to consume himself. And Guan Yu's side is even more thoughtful and has a plan.

As a result, the situation in Nanyang has reached a strange balance. Neither side was willing to fight to the death, and there was a stalemate.
