394. Fancheng fell
The water gate connecting Fancheng to the north of Xiangyang City is also an important gateway for ships to enter Xiangyang City.
But since ships can drive directly into the city, then the north water gate of the city is naturally a very wide portal, although now there are several iron gates on the north water gate of Xiangyang City to block the water gate, but if Zhu Wei really has any palm thunder and other means, you can break the iron gate on the water gate, then the water gate is the biggest flaw in Xiangyang City.
To be honest, although Liu Xianzi thought that the Water Gate might be a flaw in the defense of Xiangyang City, he didn't know how to strengthen the defense of the Water Gate, after all, he attacked the city normally in these years, and rarely attacked the Water Gate.
In this way, how to rebuild the second line of defense in the city after the water gate was broken has naturally become an inexperienced aspect of defense.
At this time, Liu Biao blurted out, his expression was also a little flustered, his hands were clenched into fists, and he looked a little unable to control himself, obviously the pressure of Zhu Wei's army on Xiangyang City had made Liu Biao a little unbearable.
These days, Liu Biao is under a lot of psychological pressure, and many things make him very anxious.
"Ming Gong don't worry, the so-called palm thunder technique, some of it is too illusory, maybe it's just a characteristic method in Zhu Weijun, as long as it is ......, as long as it can prevent him from getting closer, it will naturally be fine, and now it's just speculation! Our army only needs to add some water barriers in Fanmen and make some preparations, and that's it! ”
Kuai Liang saw that Liu Biao was already a little distracted, and hurriedly comforted Liu Biao, but he was not sure what kind of means Zhu Weizhen would use if he took Fancheng, whether it was really as Liu Biao speculated, he would use the special secret weapon in the army to attack Xiangyang Water Gate.
But at this moment, seeing Liu Biao's posture, he could only say it like this first, in order to appease Liu Biao's mood.
"Zirou, if Zhu Wei can break the water gate, then he can only think of retreating! Alas, Mo can only retreat into Yizhou, well, it's not proper, it's not proper, or retreat into Hanzhong, alas, Zirou, I think I've been in Jingzhou for seven years, but I've been forced to do this by this little generation, it's really ......"
Liu Biao listened to Kuai Liang's words, but he was still a little emotional, maybe his son Liu Qi's life and death were unknown, which made Liu Biao feel a little touched, and at the same time, Liu Biao also felt his fatigue from the heart, so at this moment he actually considered a way out.
Kuai Liang listened to Liu Biao's words, his brows couldn't help frowning, before he made the final life-and-death decisive battle with Zhu Wei's army, he had lost his fighting spirit, this is not a good state.
The boss has no fighting spirit, so how can the people below fight, and now Xiangyang City can still be regarded as a strong city in Jiangbei, how can he not even fight a battle, so he thinks of retreating.
"Ming Gong, this is a bad word, if Ming Gong loses Jingzhou, there is nowhere to retreat! Yizhou Liu Zhang's initial stable foundation, I heard that although this person has no ambition, but is also a person of mellow filial piety, before Ming Gong had written to impeach his father Liu Yan, and had instigated the people of Yizhou to rebel against Liu Zhang, I am afraid that Liu Zhang has a grudge against Ming Gong in his heart, if Ming Gong goes to Yizhou, he will be in danger! And Zhang Lu in Hanzhong is just a foolish person, with the theory of gods and ghosts, it is impossible to make a place controlled by an evil sect like Wudou Midao, and with the prestige of Ming Gong, if you go to Hanzhong, I am afraid that Zhang Lu will be jealous! And Cao Cao in the north is at odds with Ming Gong, does Ming Gong also want to be controlled by Cao Cao like the young emperor? As for Huainan Yuan Shu, erecting a rebel flag, how can the clan relatives of the Ming Gong and Han families be rebellious, and at that time, Zhu Wei's slanderous words will be confirmed! ”
Kuai Liang looked at Liu Biao's posture, and after a few thoughts in his heart, he began to deliberately scare Liu Biao, blocking Liu Biao's retreat anyway, so that Liu Biao could make up his mind to defend Xiangyang.
Otherwise, Liu Biao can pat his ass and leave, how can a member of the Jingzhou scholar clan like him move his family to another country?
The Kuai clan was originally one of the four major families in Jingzhou, and with the Kuai clan assisting Liu Biao to sit firmly in Jingzhou, it can be regarded as the Jingzhou clan second only to the Cai family, and the two brothers Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue are also regarded as important ministers around Liu Biao who are above 10,000 people under one person in Jingzhou.
In this way, under the control of their two brothers, the Kuai family naturally has more and more powerful status in Jingzhou, and naturally owns a large number of fields and family businesses in Jingzhou, which are not easy to move away.
It can be said that all the property of the Kuai clan depends on Jingzhou, and once they leave the land of Jingzhou, the Kuai clan will be reduced to an ordinary clan.
When the time comes, I am afraid that the Kuai clan will also decline.
Therefore, Kuai Liang must persuade Liu Biao to maintain his determination to defend Xiangyang at this moment, only in this way can Kuai Liang continue to flourish on the roots and branches of the big tree, and continue to thrive in Jingzhou.
Of course, what Kuai Liang said at this moment is not completely unreasonable, for Liu Biao today, there are only Liu Zhang in Yizhou, Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, Cao Cao in Gunzhou, and Yuan Shu in Huainan around Jingzhou, which can allow Liu Biao to defect.
But in Kuailiang's analysis, they obviously can't accept Liu Biao, or Liu Biao can't vote.
Needless to say, Zhang Lu, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shu were originally the same clan relatives of the Han family, and Liu Zhang, who was most likely to accept Liu Biao, was the target that Liu Biao had tried to seek before, so that even if Liu Zhang was cowardly, it was impossible to contain a foreign enemy who had been against his father and had just succeeded to the throne to his own territory.
Therefore, Liu Biao's expression was really stunned when he heard this, and after thinking about Kuailiang's words in his heart, he found that he really had nowhere to retreat, could he really only defend Xiangyang.
Liu Biao glanced at Kuai Liang, his eyes swept in the Sword Pavilion of the City Gate Tower, and suddenly patted the case in front of him, and shouted, "Okay, there is no way out, then you can only fight to the death with that shaft in Xiangyang, how can you let this shaft become famous easily!" If you have no intention of killing Xiangyang with me, you can leave now, and I will never blame! ”
"We will accompany Ming Gong to defend Xiangyang!"
After listening to Liu's words, Kuai Liang and the others naturally followed to express their loyalty, and for a while, they seemed to be united here.
But at this time, suddenly someone came from Xiangyang City to the city gate, and soon ran to the sword pavilion of the city gate tower, "Report!" Report to the lord, Fancheng has fallen, Fancheng has fallen! ”
"What!"
Liu Biao was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at Kuai Liang, although he and Kuai Liang had already guessed that Zhu Wei might have divided his troops to fight Fancheng, but they really couldn't imagine that in this short period of time, Fancheng was actually beaten down silently.
Liu Biaofang had just stabilized his mind and morale, but he was hit by the news again...... 10
