Chapter 470: Counting Down Pi (1)
Pang Tong was calm when he saw it, which was not surprising to him.
Because this has long been expected, if you are Liu Bian, then you will also use this method.
The flood is like a beast, and in this way, it is better than hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses.
"It seems that in this battle of Xuzhou, I still lost after all." Listening to the sound of this surging flood, Pang Tong couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The time and place are favorable, and they have never occupied it, so what if they don't lose?
The water of Surabaya and Yishui burst the embankment, and quickly went towards Xiapi, and the moat was instantly full of water and had no effect.
The flood that burst the embankment directly rushed into Xiapi City, and except for the east city gate, several other city gates were instantly submerged.
"It's over, we're done."
The soldiers on the tower of the city looked at the flooded Xiapi City, and their faces turned pale in an instant.
Pang Tong glanced at the soldier and wanted to reprimand, but when he opened his mouth, he couldn't say anything in the end, so he could only sigh.
"Don't say this again in the future, if the lord hears it, your life will not be guaranteed."
Pang Tong knew that if Liu Bei heard this, this soldier would definitely not be able to live, which was serious to say that it was a demagogue to the army.
And even if this is a fact, Liu Bei is definitely unwilling to accept it.
"Thanks... Xie Junshi reminded that the little ones didn't dare. When the soldier heard Pang Tong's words, he immediately thought of something, and then his face became even paler.
Pang Tong glanced at the soldier and then nodded, this soldier was afraid that Liu Bei had already reached this level.
In this way, it can be seen that the people's hearts are turned back, and as long as there is an opportunity, I am afraid that these soldiers will no longer do their best.
But despite this, Pang Tong didn't continue to say anything and turned away, and it was not caused overnight to get to where he is now.
It is also impossible to get immediate changes because of himself, and at this point, Pang Tong still understands in his heart.
On the high slope, Liu Wei also went out of the camp, and he could also predict the situation in Xiapi at this time.
Liu Wei also knew in his heart that in this way, many people would inevitably suffer from it, but he had no other choice.
If it continues to be delayed, no one knows what will happen in the next moment, and perhaps more soldiers will be killed on the battlefield.
At this time, Liu Wei also deeply felt the cruelty of the war, because many people would have no choice.
The people of Xiapi, they can't choose who is stationed in Xiapi, so now that the flood is in Xiapi, they are implicated.
But the same is true of oneself, the longer the time passes, the more people will die, so there will always be people who need to sacrifice.
"Your Majesty, whether it is to capture Xiapi or to gain the world one day, please Your Majesty, you must be kind to the people of the world."
Zhuge Liang looked at Liu Wei and then sighed and said, he didn't need to think about it, he also understood that many people were displaced in Xiapi at this time.
Liu Wei nodded, at this point, even if Zhuge Liang didn't say it, Liu Wei knew what he should do.
And this is exactly the goal that I came step by step at the beginning.
"Tomorrow's army will attack the city, and only take the east gate." Liu Wei then looked at the people behind him and spoke.
Now only the East City Gate has not been flooded, and the rest of the gates are no longer able to be defended, and they can't be attacked for a while.
For himself, there is no need to divide his troops to guard against the rest of the soldiers.
On August 5, 196 AD, Liu Wei personally led the army to the east gate of Xiapi.
"Liu Bei, now that you are gone, you will not surrender." Liu Wei personally jumped out of the horse, looked at Liu Bei at the head of the city, and scolded.
If Liu Bei was a stubborn force, he would not have made such a decision.
Only by thinking about it in this way will Liu Wei feel a little better in his heart.
Liu Wei couldn't help but smile bitterly, he had also done Kong Yiji once, but there was no way to do it.
"Surrender?" Liu Bei immediately sneered after hearing Liu Wei's words, "I have so many people with me, why should I surrender?" ”
"Even if you dig all the Surabaya and Yishui, I'm not afraid."
Liu Wei looked at Liu Bei at this time, he was completely in a broken jar and broken posture, and it was even more difficult for him to think about it than to ascend to the sky.
Although Liu Wei also expected it, he still didn't expect Liu Bei to be so crazy.
However, Liu Wei also knows that today's level is the biggest bottom line he can do, and it is impossible for him to completely submerge Xiapi, and it is difficult to do it.
"Siege." Liu Wei didn't talk nonsense, and directly ordered the siege of the city.
Since Liu Bei still plans to defend to the death, then he can only attack.
Tao Ying personally led the men and horses with a spear in his hand, and attacked towards Xiapi.
Liu Wei knew that Tao Ying was going with hatred, because Tao Ying wanted to seek revenge on Liu Bei too much.
The city's arrow rain continued to shoot towards Liu Wei's army, and the shields in the hands of the shield soldiers guarding the front were already planted with a lot of arrows.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that General Tao Ying alone won't be able to take this pi, so it's better to withdraw the army."
Zhuge Liang saw that Tao Ying had attacked for a while, but there was not much effect, so he spoke.
"General Tao Ying, although there is hatred in his heart, but in Picheng now, Liu Bei's army still has the strength to fight."
After listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Wei also nodded.
And with Tao Ying's revenge in such a state, Liu Wei was also worried that Tao Ying was too impulsive and had an accident.
At noon, Liu Biandang ordered the army to retreat.
"Such an attack will take Xiapi, but it will take a while, Your Majesty can use this as news to lure Xiaopei Zhang to fly out of the city and take Xiaopei in one fell swoop."
After returning to the big tent, Zhuge Liang looked at Liu Wei and said, with Tao Ying's ability, the loss of Pi will definitely be not small.
Rather than this, it is better to take advantage of the situation to take Xiao Pei down in one fell swoop, and by that time Liu Bei will already be alone.
Liu Wei quickly understood what Zhuge Liang meant, "Okay, then send a soldier to pretend to be Liu Bei's soldier and send a letter to Xiaopei." ”
Now that the water is flooded, it is already a fact, how can Zhang Fei not believe it at that time.
Overnight, Liu Wei sent men and horses to Xiapi, but he did not relax his attack on Xiapi.
Only in this way can we create a critical appearance at that time, and only then can Zhang Fei take the bait.
"The three generals, the lord sent someone to deliver a letter, Liu Wei flooded, the lord's situation is critical, I hope the three generals can go to the rescue."
Xiao Pei, when the messenger came to Xiao Pei, someone soon came to tell Zhang Fei.
"Where are the people? Bring it in for me. After Zhang Fei heard this, he was also taken aback and immediately got up.
"The man was outside, but he was injured during the breakout, and the general immediately brought the man." After hearing Zhang Fei's words, the general immediately spoke.
"Hmm." Zhang Fei nodded, "Then bring it in." ”
Not long after, a soldier came to Zhang Fei, and traces of injury could be seen on his arms and face.
"In Xia Li Ming, I sent a letter to the general on the order of the lord, Liu Wei flooded Xiapi, and now Xia Pi is in an emergency, and the lord asks the three generals to relieve the siege."
When the soldier saw Zhang Fei, he immediately knelt down, then looked at Zhang Fei and said.
"Really? How do I know if it's true or not, what if you're Liu Wei's person and pretend to lure General Ben to go? ”
Zhang Fei's eyes widened, then he got up and came to the front of the soldier and asked.
"Three... The three generals, the little ones didn't dare to lie to you, and the little ones escaped desperately, so they came to deliver a letter to the generals. Li Ming immediately looked panicked, and then immediately looked at Zhang Fei and explained.
"Yes, what the third general said is right, this person should not be gullible." At this time, after the soldier finished speaking, Jian Yong on the side also frowned and then nodded and spoke.
"If you can't produce evidence, then you can only kill the wrong person rather than let it go." Jian Yong's tone then became even colder, and then he looked at Li Ming and said intimidatingly.
"Sir, that's right, I'll give you another chance, if you can't prove your identity, then I can only kill you." After Zhang Fei finished speaking, he also picked up the Zhangba snake spear on the weapon rack.
"Three generals, if he doesn't want to say it, kill him." After a while, Jian Yong looked at the messenger again and spoke.
