393. It seems a little weird

Faced with the new type of defense system constructed by Xiangyang City, Tai Shi Ci was embarrassed for a while, but quickly let go of his thoughts.

He was originally here to feint, but since he was not the main attack, he only needed to attract Liu Biao's attention.

Therefore, after repairing Fenglin Pass for a day, Tai Shici led his troops from Fenglin Pass to a position about five miles south of Xiangyang City, and stopped here to start building a forward camp with great fanfare.

Tai Shi Ci deliberately made more movement in the rear of the army, as if there was a large army moving slowly in the future, and at the same time, the military camp he built here was also directly connected to the direction of Fenglin Pass in the rear, in fact, he was also deliberately trying to use Fenglin Pass to cover up the actual number of his troops.

After all, there is still a big difference between Zhu Wei's tens of thousands of troops and the existing more than 10,000 regular soldiers and more than 5,000 auxiliary soldiers in the Shenjian Battalion, so only in this way can Liu Biao in Xiangyang City not realize that there is a problem with the number of Zhu Wei's army.

At the same time, on the south gate of Xiangyang City, Liu Biao sat on the arrow tower again, watching the movements of Zhu Wei's army attacking Xiangyang from afar.

It's just that there are no more famous generals around him, and his son Liu Qi has fallen on the Yicheng side, and now there are ordinary unknown generals and military marquis here.

Although Liu Biao still doesn't know Liu Qi's life and death, Liu Biao already has a bad feeling in his heart, whether Liu Qi is dead or caught by Zhu Wei, it is not a good ending.

In addition, at this time, the strategist standing under Liu Biao also became Kuai Liang, to be honest, Kuai Liang was also very anxious about the whereabouts of his younger brother Kuai Yue, after all, Kuai Yue was an outstanding son of the Jingzhou Kuai clan, even he was ashamed of being inferior to his younger brother.

But Kuai Yue actually failed to come back from Yicheng, Kuai Liang was also very uneasy, in Kuai Liang's heart, Kuai Yue should have been his successor to the head of the Kuai family, Kuai Liang's body was actually not very good, so before the Battle of Chibi in the original history, Kuai Liang had already died of illness.

It's a pity that there is no news at the moment, and Kuai Liang can only helplessly help Liu Biao guard Xiangyang City first, and slowly inquire about the news of Kuaiyue.

Of course, for Liu Biao's side, only after holding Xiangyang first and consuming the grain and grass materials of Zhu Wei's army can he have the opportunity to mobilize reinforcements from all over the country to counterattack Zhu Wei.

To be honest, Zhu Wei's raid on Jingbei this time also caught Liu Biao off guard, otherwise Liu Biao would never have divided his troops everywhere and temporarily met Zhu Wei's army on the Yicheng side.

Therefore, Liu Biao will appear as passive as he is now, and can only retreat to Xiangyang City step by step.

However, for Liu Biao, the current situation is only a temporary setback.

Liu Biao believed that if he could use Xiangyang City to drag on for a while, even if he couldn't find regular soldiers to help, he could also use his reputation as a local scholar clan and Haoqiang class in Nanjun County to get the support of the private soldiers gathered by the local Shangshi clan and Haoqiang family.

This is also Liu Biao's background in Nanjun, just to see if he can hold on to Zhu Wei's strong attack in the early stage, and still maintain his prestige in the local area.

Of course, although Liu Biao lost more than 20,000 regular soldiers in the previous battle of Yicheng, he could be regarded as having seen Zhu Wei's siege methods, so after returning to Xiangyang City, he came up with these defense methods, which really gave Liu Biao more confidence to defend Xiangyang and make Zhu Wei hate the city.

Now Liu Biao is playing defensive counterattack tactics, the best thing is to consume a large number of Zhu Wei's troops when Zhu Wei attacks Xiangyang City, and then Liu Biao can find an opportunity to counterattack.

But at this moment, Liu Biao looked at the movement of Zhu Wei's army in the distance, and his eyes couldn't help but be a little complicated, for some reason, he felt that Zhu Wei's army seemed to be a little strange.

"Zirou, I look at this Zhu Wei's army, it seems a little weird, how do you feel, alas, Zhu Wei's son is indeed cunning, he used tricks in the past, but now he lives and dies with Wu'er, he is Deng Yi's handsome backup soldiers, and they are also lost together, I am really a little uncertain about this son's plan now!"

Liu Biao looked at the action of Tai Shici arranging the soldiers in front of him in the distance to protect the construction of the military village in the rear, and couldn't help but look at Kuai Liang, and asked in a somewhat uncertain tone.

Hearing this, Kuai Liang also looked at the changes in Zhu Wei's army in the distance, observing some of the unusual aspects, and suddenly his heart moved, and he said to Liu Biao, "Ming Gong, this time Zhu Wei's army is indeed a little strange, Ming Gong looks, Zhu Wei's front army played the banner of the Divine Arrow Battalion Tai Shi Ci, but the camp is being built later, but this Divine Arrow Battalion is not like the vanguard of Zhu Wei's army!" As for the distance, although it seems to be dusty, there is a statue of the movement of the army, but it lacks the spirit of the soldiers, although there are flags dancing, in fact, it is chaotic, it is not like the image of Zhu Wei's elite soldiers marching, Ming Gong, it is not the main force of Zhu Wei's army is not here! ”

"I also have this intention, but this time it is Zhu Wei's plan again, Zirou, if the main force of Zhu Wei's army is not here, where will it go, is it Liuziguan's side, but if so, I am afraid that it will not be easy to attack the north of Xiangyang City! So where will Zhu Wei's army go? Could it be another ploy to lure my army out of the city? ”

Liu Biao also felt the same problem, but he was afraid that it was Zhu Wei's deliberate strategy, and he was a little frightened by Zhu Wei's tricks.

Kuai Liang thought about it slightly, shook his head and said, "Then Zhu Wei will never attack Liuzi Pass, so if you want to make a detour, you won't get any benefits, as for the plan to lure the enemy, I think that our army will not easily go out of the city to counterattack now!" In this case, is it possible that Zhu Wei is going to transfer troops to fight Jiangling, or to fight Xinye, Wancheng Wenpin, and Zhang Xiu, is he trying to attack these places where our army gathers troops first, and then come to attack Xiangyang? Oh, it's not good, Ming Gong, Zhu Wei may have gone to fight Fancheng! However, even if Zhu Wei defeated Fancheng, it was just a broken arm in Xiangyang, but it was not a big deal! ”

Obviously, Kuai Liang was still a little unfamiliar with the strength of the army on Zhu Wei's side, although he guessed a little bit about the possible actions of Zhu Wei's side, but he didn't understand the significance of Zhu Wei's defeat of Fancheng.

"Hit Fancheng? Well, it's also possible, Fancheng rarely has a defensive position, if that Zhu Wei transfers troops to attack, I'm afraid that he really can't resist, hey, it......'s not good, I heard that Zhu Wei attacked Qiantang in Wu County before, and when he attacked Jiangxia Xiling, what palm thunder technique did he use to break through the water gate and enter, could it be that Zhu Wei wanted to attack the North Water Gate of Xiangyang City? ”

Liu Biao didn't think it would happen if he lost Fancheng at first, just as Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan had discussed before, Fancheng had no geographical advantages to collect, and Liu Biao also had a plan, he could defend it on Fancheng's side, and if he couldn't, he would just return to Xiangyang City.

But soon Liu Biao thought of Zhu Wei's previous two siege battles, and immediately became worried......
