"This ······" Chen Yu looked at it in surprise. He didn't expect Xiao Maha, who was in charge of attacking Xiangyang, to have such an idea. The coach was worried in his heart, if he wanted to fight this battle, it would be more troublesome than he imagined.

Even in other words, even Xiao Maha, who has always been known for daring to fight, feels tricky in the face of this battle situation, how many conspiracies are there in this Xiangyang?

Xiao Maha narrowed his eyes and did not speak.

He didn't want to fight this battle in Xiangyang, Nan Chen's troops in Jingzhou were actually not sufficient, even if he left the soldiers, horses, grain and grass that should have supported Li Xinchen, it was actually enough to support the defense, and now he forcibly attacked Xiangyang, which was a little greedy.

However, fortunately, there are not as many defenders in Xiangyang City as before, and the one guarding Xiangyang is not the difficult Wei Chi Yuan - although Wei Chi Yuan is not an idle person, at least he will not give too much psychological pressure to the generals of Nan Chen like his father.

However, having said that, Xiao Maha did not feel that this Xiangyang City was a flaw that was inadvertently exposed in the Northern Zhou Dynasty because of the chaos in Bashu.

Whether it is Wei Chi Yuan, who is presiding over the front line, or Yang Jian and Yu Wenxian, who are sitting in the court, will they really sit idly by and ignore this huge strategic gap?

After all, there is only one lone army in Bashu, and the enemy really only plans to make a big move in Bashu? Wei Chi Hui and Wei Xiaokuan are indeed famous, but Xiao Maha also noticed that there are not many soldiers and horses under the command of these two people.

So where did the rest of the main army of the Northern Zhou Dynasty go?

He didn't give Chun Yu face in front of so many people today, in fact, it was also out of this consideration. The generals are not in harmony, and Xiao Maha has enough reason to stop in this Xiangyang City. Now the lieutenant in the city is waiting for him to make a move, then he simply does not move.

The city of Xiangyang is tall and strong, the city defense is well prepared, and there are many grain and grass hoards, which are enough to hold on, not to mention that there is a water village to connect the two cities of Xiangfan and communicate the north and south banks. Xiao Maha participated in the previous battle of Wu Mingche's attack on Xuzhou, and the city of Xuzhou was still inferior to Xiangyang, and at that time, Wu Mingche stayed in the city for so long, and finally had to transfer to Luliang.

According to Xiao Maha's rough estimate, attacking Xiangyang would mean a siege that would last at least half a year, during which it was necessary to ensure a steady supply of soldiers and unhindered transportation of grain and grass, which Nan Chen could not do.

Especially now Chen Ji also intends to open up the situation in both Xiangyang and Huaibei directions at the same time, which means more requirements for grain, grass and soldiers.

What is Nan Chen's national strength, Xiao Maha knows it well, if it is just a siege, Xiao Maha can still try to fight a dozen, at least give Chen Maha a reasonable explanation. But if he had to face the situation that he didn't know when the main army of the Northern Zhou Dynasty would appear, Xiao Maha would never dare to make the decision to attack the city.

He must be responsible for the few remaining main forces of Nan Chen, this army has been transferred from Luliang to Jingzhou, supporting the entire Nan Chen Jiangshan, if the losses are heavy, in a short period of time or even seven or eight years, Nan Chen will not have the strength to launch a counterattack.

Counting up, Xiao Maha looked slightly sideways at the map, and in the three directions of Bashu, Jingzhou and Huaibei on the map, countless arrows indicating the enemy and me were facing each other. And the most obvious difference in the size of the arrows here is Bashu, this war that burned the entire land, in fact, broke out from there.

Bashu, the death or life of Bashu, is too important······

"Let's go, go and meet General Chunyu, and send someone to invite General Ren." Xiao Maha said in a deep voice, "Remember to speak politely." ”

Chen Yu was a little confused by Xiao Maha for a while, but he still hurriedly responded: "No! ”

As long as Xiao Maha knows it in his heart, now Chen Yu is most worried about Xiao Maha, no matter what, Xiao Maha is the core of this army······

Xiao Maha looked at Chen Yu, who turned to leave, and slowly clenched his fists.

Boqing, you must take care of yourself in Bashu. and Li Shizhong, no matter whether Bashu can hold it or not, you must come back alive······

——————————————

The sound of killing came and went, and the small hillside was almost covered with corpses, and the soldiers who rushed up behind could only keep stepping on the bones of the fallen Brother Paozawa, and the blood had unconsciously gathered into a stream, flowing wantonly between the corpses.

"General!" The two generals ran over quickly and threw their hands at Xiao Shilian together.

Now there were only one or two hundred men left guarding the top of the hill, and they were leaning on a few wagons, barely having the slightest strength. In the attack just now, both sides tried their best, and even the general Qi Chi Hui, who had never been as immobile as a needle of the sea god, also began to move forward at the last moment, making the Northern Zhou soldiers, who had not had much fighting spirit, burst out with a roar again, directly breaking through the defense line on the mountainside, forcing Xiao Shilian to retreat to the top of the mountain.

This is the last line of defense, and Xiao Shilian is also the last soldier by his side. Almost all of his lords and generals were filled into this huge meat mill, and now there are only these two generals left.

Cheng Feng reluctantly showed a smile, nodded at the two of them, and then reached out to support Xiao Shilian. Originally, Xiao Shilian had a wound on his leg, and in the later fight, he didn't know how many wounds he had on his body, and the original wound had long been forgotten outside the clouds.

Xiao Shilian waved his hand, didn't need Cheng Feng to support him at all, and said directly to the two generals: "Isn't there any news from Panlong County City?" ”

The general in charge of inquiring about the news shook his head with a bitter face: "I didn't have it half an hour ago, and I don't know now······"

After a pause, he subconsciously took a step forward: "General, let's fill in these scouts, we have more than a dozen people, and everyone is just passing the news back and forth between Panlong County and this Sun family, which is really aggrieved!" ”

"No matter how aggrieved you are, you are not allowed to violate the general's order!" Xiao Shilian simply vetoed it neatly, and immediately smiled bitterly, "If you don't send the news of the retreat, this battle will have to continue." ”

The general's eyes were already a little moist, and he could only respond solemnly. And the neat sound of drums could already be heard from the bottom of the hillside.

Xiao Shilian subconsciously glanced at Cheng Feng, and couldn't help but smile and said, "This Wei Chi Yu really doesn't want to let Lao Tzu take a breath." ”

The troops in Wei Chi Yuan's hands are sufficient, and anyway, there are not many soldiers and horses on the small hillside in front of him, so he simply and neatly adopted the method of wheel warfare, and consumed Xiao Shilian's troops little by little.

Moreover, the tired Nan Chen soldier is now completely supported by the breath in his heart, and he has not collapsed. Xiao Shilian looked at the somewhat empty eyes of the soldiers around him, and he didn't know how long this state could last.

Maybe everyone on this hillside will die in the next attack.
