After the breakthrough of Guiyang County, Lingling County guarded Liu Du too much, and suddenly felt a huge pressure, since the Jiangdong Army went out this time, the combat effectiveness it showed was too strong, and it successively broke Jiangxia, Changsha County, and Guiyang County, and the loss of troops was not too much.

Liu Xiandao, the son of Liu Du: "Father, now the Cao army is sending troops to attack Nanjun, if the Cao army can break through Nanjun, the Jiangdong army attacking Wuling County will inevitably retreat, and we can rely on Cao Cao, Cao Cao is strong, and supports Liu Cong to become the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and takes refuge in Cao Cao, it is for Hanchen, and it is a traitor to Jiangdong." ”

Liu Du nodded approvingly, "But the Jiangdong Army is fierce, and it is extremely difficult to stop the Jiangdong Army from attacking Lingling County." ”。

"My lord, why should I worry, the last general thinks that he has some martial arts, if the Jiangdong army comes to attack, he will definitely teach them a painful lesson." The general in the army, Xing Daorong, came out of the ranks.

The voice was full of energy, but it reassured many officials and generals in the Taishou Mansion that they were clear about Xing Daorong's force, and he was good at using a big axe, and he was a fierce general.

"With General Xing here, he will definitely be able to hold Lingling County and repel the Jiangdong Army." Liu Du laughed.

Ten days later, Sun Ce led the army to the outside of Quanling City, the seat of Lingling County, but saw tens of thousands of Jiangdong troops, mighty, banners like clouds, swords and guns, many defenders saw this scene, but showed their timidity.

Sun Cece immediately stepped forward and shouted: "Where is Lingling Taishou Liu Du, don't come out quickly to answer." ”

The city gate slowly opened, and Liu Du, surrounded by soldiers in the army, came to the outside of the city.

"Shameless traitor, dare to invade the territory of the Han Dynasty, your father Sun Jian is a fierce general of the Han Dynasty, but I didn't expect it to be such a rebellion as you, if your father knows it, he will not be blind to death." Liu Du shouted.

Sun Ce's complexion kept changing, and Liu Du's words aroused the flames of his anger: "Liu Du's old man, if Benhou breaks through Lingling, he will definitely kill Ru Manmen." ”

"Could it be that this official is still afraid of the Jiangdong rebels?" Liu Du shouted fearlessly.

Sun Ce was furious, led the cavalry to rush and kill for a while, Liu Du ordered the generals and soldiers in the army to block, but it was an orderly retreat into the city, in the general righteousness, the Jiangdong army is in a weak position, this is difficult to change for the time being, after all, Jingzhou represents the imperial court, the Jiangdong army attacked Lingling County, is to provoke the dignity of the Han, many soldiers and civilians in Jingzhou still regard themselves as the people of the Han, compared with other states and counties, Jingzhou has experienced very few wars, and the soldiers and civilians of Jingzhou still have a certain sense of belonging to the Han.

Although Liu Du's words were ugly, they were reasonable, which made the generals and soldiers look at the Jiangdong Army outside the city with some anger, the Jiangdong Army is a traitor, they are the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, after having such thoughts, many defenders looked at the Jiangdong Army, but they were not as afraid as before, they represented the righteous army.

The next day, the Jiangdong Army launched 3,000 soldiers and horses outside the city.

After the news reached the city, Xing Daorong was excited, this was when he became famous, as long as he could kill the enemy general in front of the battle, why not get more credit.

The city gate was wide open, Xing Daorong led three thousand soldiers to go straight to the Jiangdong army to kill, Sun Ce saw this scene, he was overjoyed, he was most worried that the enemy army was defending the city, in this way, it would bring a lot of trouble to the Jiangdong army, if the enemy generals could be captured alive or killed, the rest of the things would be much simpler.

Xing Daorong has absolute confidence in his own strength, but after fighting with the Jiangdong Army, he felt tremendous pressure, and when the two sides were fighting, Sun Ce led more than 100 cavalry to directly take Xing Daorong.

"The enemy general is not going to come forward and die!" Sun Ce shouted.

Xing Daorong was not afraid, and brandished a double axe to kill Sun Ce.

The situation on the battlefield has changed very significantly, in terms of the elite of the soldiers, there is a big gap between the defenders of Lingling and the Jiangdong Army, and the cavalry of Lingling even scattered and fled under the charge of the Jiangdong Army.

After Xing Daorong and Sun Ce fought a few times, his expression changed greatly, and in a short period of time, if it weren't for his rich experience in fighting on the battlefield, he almost died in Sun Ce's hands twice, Xing Daorong looked at Sun Ce with a trace of awe.

"Withdraw!" Without the slightest hesitation, Xing Daorong chose to retreat, and Sun Ce led the cavalry to rush for a while and led the troops back to the camp.

When the defenders of the city saw this, they fell into a dead silence, and their strongest general led the army into battle, but did not seek any advantage.

"General Xing, the Jiangdong Army is so fierce, what should I do?" Liu Du was worried when he learned that the army had not won outside the city.

Xing Daorong said: "Taishou doesn't need to worry, the Jiangdong Army has come from afar, if it attacks the camp, it will definitely be able to catch the enemy off guard." ”

"Everything will have General Law." Liu Du said.

That night, Xing Daorong and Liu Xian, led the troops to raid the Jiangdong Army, but the Jiangdong Army had a precaution, Xing Daorong and Liu Xian fought desperately out of the encirclement, on the way to withdraw the army, Sun Ce led an army to suddenly kill, the Lingling army was suddenly chaotic, Sun Ce took the punishment Daorong, after the five combinations, a shot stabbed the Xing Daorong off the horse.

Seeing this, Liu Xian's liver and gallbladder were broken, and he turned his horse away, and Zhou Tai rode his horse to kill and captured Liu Xiansheng.

After Sun Ce comforted Liu Xian with good words, Liu Xian expressed his willingness to take refuge in Sun Ce, seeing that Liu Xian did not seem to be a hypocrisy, Sun Ce put Liu Xian into the city and persuaded Liu Du to surrender.

After hearing that Xing Daorong was dead and what Liu Xian had suffered in the Jiangdong Army, Liu Du sighed: "Before, I misunderstood Wu Hou. ”

So Liu Du opened the city gate and welcomed the Jiangdong army into the city.

After appeasing Liu Du, Sun Ce occupied Lingling County, the speed of Jiangdong Army to seize the city is definitely very fast, at this time among the four counties of Jingnan, only Wuling County is still in the hands of the Jingzhou army, if Wuling County can be captured, there is the strength to attack Nanjun, the geographical location of Nanjun is extremely important in Jingzhou, and occupying Nanjun is equivalent to occupying a certain initiative in the future war.

Sun Ce listened to Zhou Yu's words and let Liu Du's son Liu Xian go with the army, and Liu Du was still the Taishou of Lingling.

Outside Jiangling City, 60,000 Cao troops gathered at this time.

The arrival of Cao Jun made the situation in Jiangling City more urgent, even if it was Zhuge Liang, he also felt the huge pressure, the elite of Cao Jun was undoubted, and the hearts of the family in the city were floating, and the people who secretly took refuge in Cao Cao did not know how much, the reason why the army stayed in Jiangling was because there was still a large amount of grain and grass in Jiangling City, and there was no time to transport it away.

Zhuge Liang didn't think that with the thousands of soldiers and horses in Jiangling City, the Cao army that could resist the pigs was like wolves and tigers.
