Chapter 323: The Fierce Battle of Wancheng in the Three-Front Battle (28)

?

Liu Bei's army had sixty personal guards, and all of them were finally destroyed.

The entrenched sergeant paid the price of twelve deaths.

The ratio of one to five is very good, you must know that these trapped sergeants are all extremely tired.

Of course, Hao Zhao managed to make Chen Zhi fall from his horse, and that was the most crucial factor. Chen Zhi fell from his horse, which caused the morale of the rest of the soldiers to plummet, and also gave the trapped camp sergeants a great advantage.

Without this stubble, it would not be difficult for the trapped camp to win, but it would be possible to at least pay twice as much damage.

In the current situation, if one less person can be sacrificed, the combat effectiveness will be one point more.

After Chen Zhi fell off his horse, Hao Zhao drove his mount and kept crashing into him, although Chen Zhi dodged again and again at first, but in the end he was inevitably hit by Hao Zhao's crotch war horse.

Chen Zhi was kicked in the middle of the waist by the front hooves of the war horse, and the whole person flew out directly, and after sliding in the air for a long distance, he slammed into the ground.

However, Chen Zhi was lucky, he was just kicked out by the war horse, and although he fell into a fainting, he was not dead. If it is trampled by a war horse from top to bottom, it is estimated that it will really be more auspicious.

Now that the sixty guards were all wiped out, Hao Zhao didn't have the heart to think about whether to make up for Chen Zhi, and now he suddenly had an idea in his heart.

At the beginning, when he saw Liu Beijun on the city wall to attack the reinforcements of the army, he took it for granted that Liu Bei was acting with the army. But now that Chen Zhi led Liu Bei's pro-army to appear in front of him, does that mean that Liu Bei is not in the army, but is located elsewhere alone.

If Chen Zhi was led by ordinary soldiers in Liu Bei's army, then Hao Zhao might not have this idea, but the other party led Liu Bei's personal guards, then the situation would naturally be different.

There is a big difference between the equipment of Liu Beijun's personal soldiers and ordinary soldiers, and Hao Zhao can easily distinguish them.

If Liu Bei and Zhang Fei are together, then as a personal soldier, they will naturally go with Liu Bei. But since Chen Zhi appeared in front of him with Liu Bei's personal soldiers, his inference is likely to be correct, and Liu Bei is very likely to be nearby!

Thinking of this, Hao Zhao's heart was naturally difficult to settle down. You must know that if you can kill or capture Liu Bei, it will be a great achievement.

Although it is not clear how many people Liu Bei has around him, it is estimated that there will definitely not be many, this is a godsend!

As for Zhang Fei's side, as long as Liu Bei is killed or captured, they will naturally become a plate of loose sand, and there is nothing to fear.

"Trap the camp, charge!" Immediately, Hao Zhao shouted an order, and led his soldiers to attack in the direction where Chen Zhi had attacked just now.

————————————————————————————————

Although Liu Bei only had twenty guards left around him, he was not worried about any danger he would have.

Chen Zhi's ability is beyond doubt, although his reputation is not large, but the level of commanding troops is definitely first-class in the world.

Although it is not clear how Chen Zhi's ambush soldiers were defeated so badly, Liu Bei still has a lot of confidence in Chen Zhi. At least, after this previous period of time, Chen Zhi must have the intention of atoning for his sins, and this battle will definitely not be lost.

Beside Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, Chen Gong, Liu Feng, Yi Ji, Mi Zhu, Mi Fang, Sun Qian, Jian Yong and other courtiers also rode their horses and stood on the side, waiting for the news of Chen's arrival.

After capturing Wancheng, Liu Bei naturally couldn't return to Xinye, so this time, he brought out all his civil and military subordinates.

Although Zhuge Liang was in the limelight in this battle, and there was no chance for Xu Shu and others to perform, the rest of the people were deeply convinced of their abilities and had no dissatisfaction.

Only Chen Gong felt that Zhuge Liang was still too young, and his actions may not be thoughtful.

In Chen Gong's opinion, now is not the best opportunity for Liu Bei and Liu Biao to tear their faces. Although Xinye is small, Liu Bei has been dormant here for several years, and he has already developed Xinye City to a good place, in this case, if he chooses to abandon Xinye and capture Wancheng as a new base, Chen Gong feels that it is not wise. Although the scale of Wancheng is much larger than that of Xinye, it is the north-south key point between Jingzhou and the Central Plains.

Cao 'Cao' was able to own Wancheng for many years, and that was because he was strong and did not have to fear other princes at all. And Liu Beijun's strength is weak, even if Wancheng is captured this time, the number of troops is only a few thousand. And Wancheng suffered from the 'chaos' of the war, and the city was invaded by fire, and the people were estimated to have suffered heavy losses. Even if Liu Beijun finally wins the city, he should focus on rest and recuperation, and he will not be able to recruit many soldiers and horses for a while, and he will not be able to expand his strength.

If Cao 'Cao' is defeated, then no matter whether it is Sun Jian or Ma Teng who occupies Xuchang, their recovery speed will definitely be much faster than Liu Bei's. If Cao 'Cao' is fortunate enough to be undefeated under the attack of Ma Teng and Sun Jian, it will be much stronger than Liu Bei. In addition, even if Liu Biao in the south was completely wiped out in this battle, with the huge heritage of Jingxiang Nine Counties, he would definitely be able to recover his strength before Liu Bei.

At that time, Liu Bei will face the situation of the tiger and the wolf, and he is afraid that he will be more than lucky.

If you stay in Xinye, although there seems to be no chance of further development in the short term. However, when Liu Bei met Liu Biao before, Chen Gong also accompanied him, so he had some observations on Liu Biao. According to Chen Gong's observation, Liu Biao is old and sick, and it is estimated that he will die within a few years. And Liu Biao's second son, Liu Qi and Liu Cong, fought openly and secretly for the position of the next Jingzhou pastor. If Liu Biao dies, the two brothers will not give up, and it is even possible to fight each other. As long as it waits until then, it will be a great opportunity for Liu Bei to 'touch' the fish in troubled waters, and if the 'operation' is done properly, maybe he will be able to take this opportunity to let Liu Bei defeat Liu Qi and Liu Cong in one fell swoop, and completely control Jingzhou!

Chen Gong also mentioned his thoughts to Liu Bei, but unfortunately, Liu Bei himself is not young, and now he really doesn't want to wait a few more years.

It must be known that in a few years, Liu Bei will be nearly fifty years old.

What's more, although Liu Biao seems to have a short life, who can say for sure what happens to life and death? If Liu Biao didn't die, wouldn't Liu Bei have to wait in Xinye all the time.

Therefore, Liu Bei did not adopt Chen Gong's suggestion, but followed Zhuge Liang's strategy and set his goal on Wancheng. ~
