When Liu Zhang learned that there was an army that survived the 'yin' level and successfully attacked the two cities of Jiangyou and Fucheng one after another, he was also surprised and panicked.

Cao Jun might steal the 'Yin' Ping, Zhang Ren mentioned it to him, and Liu Zhang also knew that Zhang Ren had set up an ambush at the exit of the 'Yin' Ping Road in case of emergency.

But what I didn't expect was that Zhang Ren's deployment seemed to be completely useless, and the enemy captured two cities in a row after surviving the 'yin' level, and the troops were directly 'forced' into Chengdu.

The fate of that ambush army, Liu Zhang didn't need to think about it, he knew that it would inevitably be annihilated.

Most of Chengdu's troops were sent to the Sword Pavilion, and the remaining soldiers were only a thousand people, if they were beaten to the city by the enemy, Chengdu was estimated to be difficult to hold!

Of course, now Liu Zhang doesn't know that the number of Cao's troops who have survived the 'yin' level is now less than 1,500, Chengdu City, as the capital of Yizhou, has a high city wall, and if his 1,000 people defend the city, even if Gao Shun's trapping camp is the world's 'elite' division, it will be difficult for him to lead the army to capture Chengdu City.

But Liu Zhang did not know the battle situation on the front line, and Zhang Ren once told him that even if Cao Jun wanted to steal the 'Yin' level, the number would never be large, and it would never exceed 5,000 people.

But the current number of 5,000 people is definitely not a small number for Liu Zhang. Even if the Cao army, who was in charge of the sneak attack, broke through the city all the way from the exit of the 'Yin' Pingdao and arrived in Chengdu with casualties, Liu Zhang estimated that the other party would have about 3,000 troops left. The number of 3,000 people may not be anything in normal times, but for Chengdu City, which is now without soldiers, it is a great threat.

Liu Zhang's 'sexuality' is weak, and now that the enemy is about to hit the city of Chengdu, he suddenly wants to surrender.

It is said that Cao 'Cao' is still very preferential to those who take the initiative to surrender, and now he can be subdued, at least he can be a happy marquis, which is much better than being caught in Xuchang after the city of Chengdu is broken.

However, when Liu Zhang told his ministers that he wanted to surrender, he was immediately met with a large number of opposition.

"Why should the lord be afraid?" Yin's flat road is dangerous, and the people in Shu know it. It was not easy for Cao's army to survive the 'yin' peace, and even if there was still strength left to eliminate the ambush troops set up in advance, it would definitely suffer a lot of losses. After attacking Jiangyou and Fucheng, Cao's army will inevitably have casualties, even if there is a shortage of major generals in Chengdu, Cao's army's situation will inevitably not be much better, maybe it is now the end of the crossbow. What's more, Mianzhu has not yet been lost, in Mianzhu City, there are still 1,000 defenders, and the last general will bring 500 soldiers to Mianzhu, and Cao Jun will not be allowed to advance an inch! "Yizhou general Li Yan asked Liu Zhang for battle.

Li Yan was originally under Liu Biao, and was appointed as the commander of Zigui County, and Cao 'Cao' was exiled to Shu when he attacked Jingzhou. Li Yanqi is capable of civil and military affairs, good at governing the army and good at governance, and is quite trusted by Liu Zhang, and now his status is on par with Zhang Ren.

What Li Yan said is actually very correct, Gao Shun and his trapped camp are indeed in a bad situation now, if they stick to Mianzhu according to what Li Yan said, they can even trap Gao Shun in Fucheng and lose their ground.

However, Liu Zhang was still afraid in his heart, Li Yan said that he would 'draw' 500 people to Mianzhu, so that if Mianzhu could not hold it, then Chengdu would really have to rely on 500 people to resist the offensive of Cao's army.

Seeing that Liu Zhang was still hesitating, Li Yan further said: "If the lord is still worried, he might as well inform General Zhang Ren and ask him to 'draw' back some of his troops and return to Chengdu to garrison." ”

Since Cao Jun divided his troops to steal the 'Yin' level, the number of troops outside the Sword Pavilion would inevitably be reduced, and it would not hurt for Zhang Ren to send a small group of soldiers back to Chengdu.

The number of troops to be called back does not need much, even if only 2,000 people come back, it is estimated that Chengdu City will be impregnable.

Hearing that Li Yan proposed to let Zhang Ren return to the army, Liu Zhang's heart settled down a little.

In the end, Liu Zhang agreed to Li Yan's request and asked him to take 500 people and garrison Mianzhu.

When ———————————————————————————————— Gao Shun led his troops to the outside of Mianzhu City, Li Yan had already entered the city with reinforcements for a long time.

Gao Shun frowned, although he didn't know how many troops there were in Mianzhu City, but roughly looking at the deployment on the city wall, it was estimated that there were more than a thousand people.

The city defense of Mianzhu City is better than that of Jiangyou City and Fucheng, and the number of defenders in the city is not less than their own, and it is really difficult for them to conquer Mianzhu City.

Although he captured Fucheng by himself, firstly, the defenders of Fucheng were already pitiful, and secondly, the defense of Fucheng was also very weak, but Rao was so, and Gao Shun also took some effort to capture Fucheng.

For this reason, Gao Shun also sacrificed the lives of more than 300 soldiers.

It is true that the siege battle is no better than the field battle, and Gao Shun captured a city at the cost of more than 300 casualties, which can be regarded as very perfect. But you must know that the number of people trapped in the camp is not large, and if one dies, there will be one less, and if you are alone, it is even more nonsense to want to replenish the troops.

And now, in front of him, the Mianzhu City, the height and solidity of the city wall are better than Fucheng, and the number of soldiers defending the city is more than Fucheng, what should I do to take this city?

Gao Shun pondered hard about the method of attacking the city, and his frowning brows did not disperse for a long time.
