Chapter 344: Empty City Strategy

As soon as these words came out, Zhuge Liang's court was silent for a while, even Zhang Fei did not immediately refute it.

Xiangyang has always been the most important place in Jingzhou, although Jingzhou is divided by several forces, it is no longer prosperous, but to be able to sit on this Xiangyang land, it is still the pride of Liu Bei and even Zhuge Liang, with Xiangyang in hand, there are endless opportunities to include other counties in the bag, this kind of situation, all show how important Xiangyang is.

But on this day, when Jian Yong proposed to strategically abandon Xiangyang, no one refuted it, it was enough to see that Zhuge Liang was really powerless to fight against the powerful Liu Feng, even Zhang Fei knew in his heart, even if Guan Yu of Xiakou was dispatched here, in Liu Feng's personal conquest and Lu Su's attack in the south, the chance of holding Xiangyang was very small, and this time the mistake of Liu Feng's estimation led to the loss of the mediocrity as a barrier in Xiangyang, which already indicated that the day of the loss of Xiangyang was not far away, so it was really today, Being able to transfer all the merchants and heroes in Xiangyang City to Xiakou or Jiangdong without spending a single soldier is already a good ending.

"Do you have a different opinion?" Zhuge Liang saw that Jian Yong had basically said what he was thinking, and after nodding slightly, he looked at everyone and asked.

Zhuge Liang had already had the intention of retreating in his heart when he withdrew Liu Chan from Xiangyang, but such a statement naturally could not be said from his mouth, and that kind of thing would be a fatal blow to the morale of the sergeants under his command, so he needed an old and serious minister like Jian Yong to say such words at this time, so that giving up Xiangyang could become a logical thing.

In fact, according to Jian Yong's words, if he can take away as many elites and wealth in Xiangyang City as possible in his prime, without losing a single soldier, it is already a commendable result for Zhuge Liang, but with Zhuge Liang's strategy, he still wants to bite Liu Feng fiercely when he leaves, only in that way can he not have such depression in his heart.

Seeing that everyone looked at each other and no one spoke, Zhuge Liang said in a timely manner: "Since this is the case, according to what Mr. Jian Yong said, you will immediately organize troops and escort the elites in Xiangyang City to Xiakou, the wealth in Xiangyang City cannot be left to Liu Feng, and within two days, the evacuation will be completed, General Zhang Fei and General Liao Hua will follow me to the mansion to discuss other important matters!" ”

In a few simple words, Zhuge Liang arranged the most important things here, a cadre of civil ministers and military generals, all of them were ordered to go to the city, Xiangyang is such a scale, among which the elites have been in the city for a long time, and they want to evacuate within two days, how is it easy to achieve, these two days, these people don't know how many words to consume, and under the sorrow in their hearts, they naturally have no time to take care of why Zhuge Liang summoned Zhang Fei and Liao Hua to his mansion to discuss alone.

On this day, Zhang Fei and Liao Hua stayed in Zhuge Liang's mansion until late at night before leaving, and as for what Zhuge Liang discussed with the two, no one knew except the two.

Let's say that Liu Feng led the army to slowly approach Xiangyang, and sent scouts to explore the situation in Xiangyang City, Lu Su had already prepared a team of men and horses in Jiangling to wait for Liu Feng's orders, once Liu Feng gave the order, Lu Su could lead the army from Jiangling all the way north to Xiangyang to cooperate with Liu Feng.

Finally, after a few days of marching, Liu Feng had to report that he could come to Xiangyang City in less than a day, and Zhao Yun was already close to more than 30 miles outside Xiangyang City at this time, according to Liu Feng's general order, Zhao Yun did not go directly to attack the city, but set up camp more than 30 miles away from Xiangyang, while inquiring about the news, while waiting to meet Liu Feng.

If Liu Feng marched at full speed, he could arrive at Xiangyang more than a day earlier than now, but this time Liu Feng just wanted Zhuge Liang to feel the pressure that was coming slowly, and he gave Zhuge Liang enough time to arrange his troops, and then completely defeated him, only in this way could Zhuge Liang's arrogant heart be shattered.

But what Liu Feng didn't expect was that just when he was still a few hours away from being able to meet Zhao Yun in one place, news came from the front, saying that the scouts had found scattered chariots and horses in Xiangyang City, and under the escort of Sergeant Zhuge Liang from the east gate of Xiangyang City, they went out of the city by boat, and then went to the direction of Xiakou by boat, which was like a big move.

As soon as Liu Feng heard such a situation, he guessed a few points in his heart, he looked at Xiangyang City in the distance, and sighed slightly, he didn't expect Zhuge Liang to give up the opportunity to fight against him in Xiangyang City so easily, these so-called carriages and horses, it must be Zhuge Liang who transferred the talents and wealth in Xiangyang City to his power center Xiakou, so that even if Liu Feng can easily take Xiangyang, then what will be left to Liu Feng will definitely be a city with only civilians, such a top-heavy Xiangyang, Liu Feng wants to make it prosperous again, and it really takes a lot of effort.

But in Liu Feng's heart, what he was disappointed was not Zhuge Liang's behavior of transferring wealth and talents in the city, but that he lost an opportunity to defeat Zhuge Liang in person.

Half a day later, Liu Feng, who was already a little excited, finally arrived at the place where he joined Zhao Yun, according to Zhao Yun's observation on this day, there have been chariots and horses in Xiangyang City to transfer items and a small number of personnel in the direction of Xiakou, obviously, these few days of hard work, I am afraid that the real money and silver in Xiangyang City have basically been poured into Xiakou, Zhao Yun said, but also a helpless look.

"It seems that as long as we lead the army into the city, this Xiangyang will change hands when it lands, and if I knew this, I sent General Zilong and I to lead 50,000 horses here, and it is just enough to incorporate Xiangyang, why do you need to work so hard?"

Wei Yan, who came here with Zhao Yun, was also quite helpless at this time, Zhuge Liang would flee from the battle, which he really didn't expect.

"Otherwise, have you ever seen Zhuge Liang's handsome banner set up on the wall of Xiangyang, and there are many defenders standing at the head of the city, among them, I'm afraid it's not so simple......"

At this time, Liu Feng and Zhao Yun, Wei Yan, Pang Tong and others were riding their horses to look at the city head of Xiangyang from a distance. I couldn't help but rekindle a little interest in my heart, which made him think of three words: empty city plan.
