Chapter 591: The Liangzhou Army Attacks Lingling
Lu Su's words, everyone didn't think much about it, but after listening to Zhang Liao's words, a few people secretly laughed in their hearts, and said in their hearts This Sun Bofu, you are still a character in the world, but you can't even surrender to Zhang Liao, hahahaha!
But if you really want to count it, it seems that except for Liu Bei, there is no such thing, whether it is Cao Cao or Ma Chao, they all have similar problems, which is no longer a strange thing in the world.
Yes, Cao Cao's side is Guan Yu, they all know this, although Guan Yu said that he did things for Cao Cao and the Yanzhou Army, he never recognized Cao Cao as the main prince. And Ma Chao is the same, but Guan Yu has become Zhang Ren, even if Zhang Ren does things for Ma Chao for him, he can be regarded as contributing a lot to the Liangzhou Army, but he has never called Ma Chao the lord. To put it bluntly, now that he has not stepped over the hurdle in his heart, he is indeed different from Guan Yu.
Guan Yu does not agree with Cao Cao's personality, speaking of which, it can be regarded as different. But because he has the grace of knowing him, and is really good to him, he understands it in his heart. Therefore, he also gave Cao Cao to do things for the Yanzhou army-
But Zhang Ren is obviously not like this. As for Zhang Liao, although he also does not recognize Sun Ce as the master, it is another situation, so although the three of them do not recognize the lord, it is three different situations.
After hearing the words of Lu Su and Zhang Liao, Xu Shu hurriedly said to the two: "This is not the place to speak, the two of you will follow me into the mansion for a while!" ”
"Good. Please! "Please!" "Please!"
With that, Xu Shu and the others invited Lu Su and the two of them into Quanling. Then I went directly to the Taishou Mansion. After the guests and hosts were seated in the living room, Xu Shu smiled at Lu Su and Zhang Liao: "Let me introduce you to the two." A certain is Xu Shu of the Han Army, Xu Yuanzhi, this ......"
After that, Xu Shu introduced Cao Ren and the three of them, and then introduced a few people from his side. After all, Cao Ren and the others are also guests, so Lu Su has finished introducing himself here, so of course he has to introduce Cao Ren and the three of them to Lu Su-
Lu Su and Zhang Liao nodded at Cao Ren, Guo Huai and Niu Jin, after all, both of them were allies of Liu Bei and Hanjun, but Zhang Liao knew Cao Ren, but Lu Su had never dealt with them, so this was the first time they met. Of course, it's polite.
And they don't have any entanglements of interest, at least for now, at this moment, there really isn't. Although it seems that they can be united, this is not bad.
Seeing Lu Su and the three of them nodding to the three of them, Cao Ren and the others also nodded to Lu Su and Zhang Liao, after all, this face is mutual, you give me face, I have to give you a little bit of no.
After that, Xu Shu introduced the people on their side. And Lu Su and Zhang Liao have also seen each other with them, and after this circle, they all know each other, and they all know who is who.
After that, Xu Shu asked Lu Su a few words. That is, to ask about the movements of the Liangzhou Army before-
However, when Lu Su left, he didn't have to be much later than Cao Ren, so he didn't know the movements of the Liangzhou army. But that doesn't mean he can't speak his mind. Therefore, he said to Xu Shu: "What Yuan Zhi asked, in fact, he wants me to say. Now that Ma Chaoliangzhou is in the army, it should have entered the range of Lingling! ”
In fact, in Lu Su's opinion. It was impossible for Xu Shu not to think of this, but he still had to ask himself, thinking that he just wanted to know what he thought. After all, everyone here, that is, him and himself, is considered to be on the same level. It's not that I look down on other people.,The so-called art industry has a specialty.,This is not good at this.,So......
Xu Shu nodded when he heard this, in fact, he did think so, and now where are Ma Chao and them, of course, it is the same as what he thought and what Lu Su said, he has already led his troops into Lingling, and has arrived at Lingling's Lingling City. Yes, it is the county seat of Lingling County, this county and the county have the same name, it is indeed rare in Dahan, but Lingling can be regarded as one. Although Lingling County is not the seat of Lingling County, it can be regarded as one of the largest cities in Lingling, which is not bad at all.
The Lingling guard is Liu Pan, who took refuge in Liu Bei in Jingzhou, and he can be regarded as his nephew, after all, he is Liu Biao's nephew, so of course he is Liu Bei's nephew.
In the past, Liu Bei asked Liu Pan to guard the Lingling Tomb, but after he arrived at Quanling with the remnants of the defeated army, Liu Bei sent Liu Pan to Lingling. After all, it's impossible to let Xu Shu come here. This is not a demotion to Liu Pan, they all know that as long as Ma Chao brings the troops, it will definitely be the first to bear the brunt, so it is definitely to reuse him Liu Pan. If his Liu Pan's ability is stronger than Huo Jun, then he will stay in Quanling, but what the truth is, who doesn't know.
However, in this regard, although Liu Pan was a little reluctant, he finally compromised. After all, his skills are not as good as others, and he has no choice but to accept the orders of his lord. After all, I don't know what I can do, I don't know what I do, it's not as good as Huo Jun, so my lord can be regarded as reusing himself and letting himself come to Lingling, which is also good, isn't it.
So although Liu Pan did have a little complaint in his heart, he didn't blame Liu Bei for anything-
After all, he was also a member of the Jingzhou Army before, so Liu Pan was convinced of Huo Jun's ability. Actually, it's not an exaggeration. And after that, Huo Jun also joined his side, and then made many meritorious contributions. He knows it too. So for Huo Jun, Liu Pan is indeed convinced. And even more so. And Xu Shu and them, how could Liu Pan not know Xu Shu's ability, so although he still had a little complaint before, he slowly got better in the past few days.
Anyway, for him, it would be good if his lord could use himself, and not to mention that he was still reused, otherwise he would not be at the forefront of this. Lingling is not only a big city, but also the only way for Ma Chao to go from Rongcheng to Quanling. So in such an important place, it goes without saying that my lord let himself guard it.
Seeing that Ma Chao's Liangzhou army was already in camp at this time, Liu Pan muttered to himself at the head of the city: "Ma Chao, Ma Mengqi, Liangzhou army, I hope to fight with you!" Use this to prove to the lord that I, Liu Pan, am not as good as Huo Jun. But it's not much different! ”――
There is no first in this article, and there is no second in martial arts, even if Liu Pan is indeed very obedient to Huo Jun, but in his opinion. This is not as good as the other party, but it is not too bad. This is Liu Pan's idea, and he wants to use this to prove to his lord. There's nothing wrong with reusing yourself.
Ma Chao first gathered everyone. briefly talked to everyone, and now this Lingling. It was that Liu Pan who guarded it. Although Liu Pan is not very capable, he must not be underestimated. Everyone also knows this, but he is not Huo Jun after all, so in the eyes of the generals, although Liu Pan is not so despised by himself, it is not enough for his people to treat him like Huo Jun.
On the second day, it was still Ma Dai, with the Liangzhou soldiers, and launched the first tentative attack on Lingling City. Of course, Liu Pan understands everything, after all, he has been in the Jingzhou Army for many years, and he still has this experience. And after joining the Han army, he didn't defend the city-
Seeing Ma Dai leading his troops to attack, Liu Pan naturally organized an effective defense at the head of the city. After all, with the advantage of the city, can't this withstand a mere tentative attack by the Liangzhou army? And the nearly 5,000 people on his side are not vegetarians, Liu Panxin said.
He has confidence in himself, and he has a lot of confidence in Lingling City. Even if he saw that there were tens of thousands of men and horses under the Liangzhou Military City, several times that of his own, he had nothing to fear. For him, it is true that he is not afraid of failure. After all, in today's situation, if you are defeated, there is still the next city, even if you don't defend it yourself, but other people may not be able to stop the Liangzhou army for many days.
And the last Lingling Zhizhi Quanling City, not to mention. Although Quanling is definitely not as good as Jiangling, the first largest fortified city in Jingzhou, nor is it as good as the second largest fortified city of Xiangyang, after all, those two cities, even in the world, are also famous fortified cities. But let's just say that in Lingling, that Quanling is definitely the first strong city, and Lingling City is the second-
Ma Dai led the Liangzhou army and the Han soldiers at the head of the city to fight fiercely, but because it was a temptation, he didn't use all his strength, so after the first charge was repulsed, he retreated. He didn't want to just retreat, but his lord had already let the soldier Mingjin, so he could only do this, and it was impossible to fight again.
Seeing the Liangzhou army under the city retreating like a tide, even if he had the advantage of the first battle, Liu Pan couldn't laugh at all. Because the Liangzhou army is so fierce in a single temptation, and the combat power is so strong, so if you go all out to attack the city, of course you know what the situation will be.
He had to admit that the Liangzhou Army was strong, but he really didn't want the Liangzhou Army to be like this. But the facts are in front of you, but they can't be changed, even a general like Huo Jun who defended the city, in the case of such a fierce attack by the Liangzhou army, also defended a limited time, so what about himself......
Liu Pan really didn't think that he was more powerful than Huo Jun-
After sighing slightly at the head of the city, Liu Pan went down. However, before leaving, he still did not forget to instruct the soldiers. Be sure to pay close attention to the movements of the Liangzhou army, as long as they do make a move. You must report to him as soon as possible.
After the soldier agreed, he saw that Liu Pan had already left the city. And for Ma Chao and the generals of the Liangzhou army. The first attack on the first day was really nothing. He didn't say much when he went back, and then let everyone go back to rest.
A day later, Ma Dai once again led his troops to attack Lingling. The pressure on Liu Pan this time is very different from yesterday, Liu Pan is also stubborn and leading the soldiers to resist the fierce attack of Ma Dai and the Liangzhou soldiers.
For him, these were indeed expected, but after really facing the Liangzhou army, Liu Pan knew how much pressure he was facing.
But anyway. Since his lord has made himself the commander of this Lingling, then he has to use all his strength to deal with the Liangzhou army.
Not to mention that he didn't want to fight for his life, but it was almost the same, so even if Liu Pan's ability was limited, he still took out all his strength to lead his soldiers to resist Ma Dai's attack. Therefore, although the Liangzhou army was indeed much more fierce than yesterday's attack, but in the end it still did not take much advantage, Ma Dai was forced to retreat twice, and finally Ma Chao had no choice but to let the soldiers Mingjin.
After all, it has only been two attacks in two days, for Ma Chao. He could afford to wait. If he was replaced by a general who defended the city like Huo Jun, he might not be as calm as he is now.
No matter how you say that a Huo Jun can refuse the Liangzhou Army for seven or eight days, there is no need to say this. If he and the Han soldiers played well, then on the eleventh or twelfth day. There's nothing wrong with that.
But even so, Ma Chao still has generals in the Liangzhou army, including Ma Dai. They all hoped to fight more battles with generals like Huo Jun. After all, only by fighting them can you make your own progress. As for people like Liu Pan. It's really not much of a help to you.
Ma Dai led his troops to retreat from Lingling for the second time, but even if he was unwilling. But this is only two days, the so-called coming day is long, can't it break such a tomb?
Of course Ma Dai is confident, and in the same way, Ma Chao and the Liangzhou Army all think the same. After all, Liu Pan is not Huo Jun, so he can't deal with him. Even if it is as strong as Huo Jun, what happened in the end, didn't he abandon the city and flee.
Of course, on the side of the Han army, of course they did not admit that they abandoned the city and ran away, but on the side of the Ma Chao Liangzhou army, they just abandoned the city and fled, so there is no need to explain more.
The two-day battle made Liu Pan's pressure more and more, and in this way, he didn't have much confidence that he could hold on to Lingling for several days. At least for six or seven days, it is estimated that it can't be done, three or five days, maybe it can work? I don't know, maybe, maybe, I won't.
And when Ma Chao entered Lingling with the Liangzhou army, and fought with Liu Pan in Lingling City, the information was transmitted to Quanling, and it was known to Xu Shu and Cao Ren and Lu Su and Zhang Liao, but their thoughts were different.
Xu Shu really wanted the Yanzhou Army and the Jiangdong Army to go to help, but he also knew that on his own, he would not be able to convince the people on both sides of them no matter what. Needless to say, Lu Su can't convince him, and as for Cao Ren, it's not good. Not to mention the festival between his own side and their Yanzhou army, even if there is none, his own status is not enough to convince them. If your own lord is here, then it's pretty much the same.
After all, they are indeed here to be reinforcements, and their lord opens his mouth back, whether it is Lu Su or Cao Ren, he will definitely give him face, there is no need to say much about this. But themselves, they won't give themselves face, anyway, in the eyes of the two, what are you Xu Shu Xu Yuanzhi. may have good skills, but after all, that status is not enough for the two to act.
And after Lu Su and Zhang Liao arrived at Quanling, he actually expected Liu Bei to leave Quanling early-
And Liu Xuande and his people left Lingling and went to Jiangling, but now Ma Mengqi has brought people into Lingling, for this, of course Lu Su knows Xu Shu's thoughts. In the same way, he also knew that Cao Ren's thoughts were tacit.
However, Lu Su also knew that Xu Shu must also understand his and Cao Ren's thoughts, so he would never come to persuade the two of them. Of course, he Xu Shu also knows that even if he comes to persuade him, he will return in vain in the end, after all, he is not his lord Liu Xuande, and his identity and status are not enough. So how can you let yourself and Cao Ren do things for their Han army and resist the Liangzhou army. (To be continued......)
