Zhang Dingbian garrison Jingling City has been more than three years, under Zhang Dingbian's management, Jingling City has already become a military fortress.

Jingling City is three zhang high, the moat quotes the Han water living water, under the repeated openness of Zhang Dingbian, the moat outside the city is originally several zhang wide, and now it has a width of more than ten zhang, if it does not take some effort, the enemy army even fills the moat outside the city is a problem!

Zhou Yu had already led the army to Jingling City at this time, and Zhou Yu's 20,000 naval troops set up a water village outside Jingling City, and Jingling City formed a corner of each other, as long as one side was enemy, the other side could launch an attack at any time to support.

However, among the 100,000 Xiangyang soldiers and horses, there are also 50,000 sailors, and this navy was handed over by Cai Mao to Zhang Yun to lead, if the enemy army is attacking the city, so that the Jingzhou navy drags Zhou Yu's soldiers and horses, then Zhou Yu's soldiers and horses will be difficult to play a role.

The Xiangyang Xinye coalition army soon came to the outside of Jingling City, 40,000 Jingzhou army infantry armor, 10,000 Jingzhou army iron cavalry, 12,000 Liu Beijun infantry armor, a total of 62,000 troops formed a formation outside Jingling City!

Although the Jingzhou army is a bit like the meaning of a showcase, but the number of its army is as much as 50,000 after all, and the 50,000 army is arranged in five Nuoda phalanxes on the plain outside Jingling City, giving people the impact is also extraordinary, and the boundless killing spirit is impacting the hearts of Zhang Dingbian's soldiers and horses all the time.

Liu Bei's 12,000 soldiers and horses formed three smaller square arrays on the side of the Jingzhou army, Liu Bei accepted Wancheng's armor and ordnance, and after getting a supplement from Liu Biao, the days also passed well, the 12,000 soldiers and horses are also well-equipped and well-trained, although the time to form the army is still short, but under the training of a series of famous generals such as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, it has also shown an elite posture, compared to the Jingzhou army next to it, faintly better!

Fortunately, Zhang Dingbian's soldiers and horses have experienced two sieges of 100,000 troops, and after defeating the Jingzhou army twice, these soldiers have been somewhat immune to such a large array as the Jingzhou army.

On the Han River, 50,000 Jingzhou sailors took large and small warships to pave the entire Han River, at a glance, the entire river, everywhere is the Jingzhou army's warship flags, the boundless warships are like a dragon flying on the river, straight towards Zhou Yu's sailor camp, but also gave Zhou Yu's sailors a lot of pressure.

However, after all, the 20,000 sailors under Zhou Yu's command were reorganized by the Jiangdong sailors, and these sailors were originally the elite divisions that followed Zhou Yu and Sun Ce for a long time, and now after the reorganization and rotation of Yuan Yao's department, the combat power of these 20,000 sailors has reached a higher level!

In the face of 50,000 Jingzhou sailors, Zhou Yu's sailors were also fearless!

……

However, after approaching Jingling City and Zhou Yu's naval division camp, all the soldiers and horses of the Jingzhou Xinye Alliance Army also stopped, and the soldiers and horses of the two roads did not directly attack the city!

Cai Mao rode on the war horse, looking at the Jingling City in front of him, and his heart was also full of emotion!

In just a few years, this is the third time that the two of them have led a large army to attack this city!

As the saying goes, there are no more than three things!

If you can't capture Jingling City in this battle, I'm afraid that Jingzhou will really be over, not only will all the previous plans turn into water, but even Yuan Yao may not be able to get there!

Under Liu Biao, his Cai family is the first wealthy family in Jingzhou, and he alone has mastered most of the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the invisible lord of Jingzhou; If you can successfully raise the land of Jingzhou to serve Prime Minister Cao, then you and Cai's are the prime minister's first heroes to win Jingzhou, even if the prime minister will dislike him, he will definitely reward himself and Cai's to promote his grace!

At that time, he and the Cai family can go one step further and expand their influence beyond Jingzhou, and in a few decades, the Cai family will be able to become a wealthy family in the world!

But what if it is to serve Yuan Yao?

Yuan Yao's soldiers and horses have the upper hand on the soldiers and horses of Shangjingzhou, and he has been defeated by Zhang Dingbian several times, for Yuan Yao, it is a matter of time before he takes the land of Jingzhou, and his importance is not great!

Even if he surrenders to him, Yuan Yao may not be able to continue to reuse himself, and he may even limit his and Cai's power because he was once an enemy of him!

In this way, he and the Cai family will lose the opportunity to rise to become a wealthy family in the world in this troubled world!

If it's your own, it's okay, even if it's not reused, it's okay to be lucky enough to live and enjoy wealth!

But if he can do it, Cai's must not lose this opportunity to rise, otherwise when the world is settled and order is restored again, Cai's will be even more difficult to rise, and it may become food for others to develop and grow!

In order to become a wealthy family in the world, the Cai family has been struggling for more than 100 years, and this is already the best and closest opportunity to success in a hundred years.

Even when Yuan Shao was at his peak, he was not Prime Minister Cao Cheng's opponent, let alone his sons!

What's more, with the opportunity to defeat Yuan Shao, Prime Minister Cao Cheng's power has gone further, but the land of the four northern states has become a plate of scattered sand around Yuan Shao, in this case, the remnants of the Yuan family in the four northern states will definitely not be Prime Minister Cao's opponent, and Prime Minister Cao Cheng will undoubtedly win the battle in the north!

At that time, Prime Minister Cao Cheng will be able to dominate the northern land and turn his attention to the south!

The land of Jingzhou is connected to Jiangdong in the east, Bashu in the west, and the Central Plains in the north, which is a strategic hub in the south.

After the end of the Northern War, Jingzhou must be Prime Minister Cao Cheng's next target!

In other words, as long as he can repel Yuan Yao's army this time, he can wait for the arrival of Prime Minister Cao, and as long as he can successfully hand over the land of Jingzhou to Prime Minister Cao, his task and Cai's task will be completed!

As long as this plan can be achieved, even if it is a sacrifice of more soldiers and horses, it is not hesitating, after all, these soldiers and horses are just pawns for the rise of their own Cai clan, and now it is finally time for them to play a role!

Thinking of this, Cai Mao's heart became more and more firm, even if the Jingzhou army was fought this time, he would definitely break through Jingling City and repel Yuan Yao's army, so that he would not have the ability to attack Jingzhou again in a short period of time!!
