(Congratulations to Brother Sun, Moon and Xingchen for becoming the first deacon of the tyrant, cough cough, continue to ask for recommendation votes, and the warrior will give everyone a look)

Diao Xiong frightened Guan Yu away, so he simply abandoned the axe and used the Qinglong knife as his weapon.

The Chopping Axe is heavy, but when the martial arts are promoted to a certain level, the weight of the weapon is no longer the key, the subtlety of the move is more important, and the heavier the weapon, it is easy to affect the launch of the move.

Moreover, the moves of Diao Xiong's "stealing" are mostly based on knife techniques, using axes as knives, so naturally they can't exert the full power of those moves.

This Qinglong knife is more than 80 catties, not light or heavy, and it is made of fine iron, sharp and unparalleled, and it is an artifact tailored for him.

With the Qinglong knife in hand, the mink male's killing intent was even stronger, urging the war horse to chase and kill all the way, killing the Sun and Liu coalition army is a ghost crying wolf, and the blood flowed like a river.

After three days of exhaustive pursuit, the mink male soldiers re-entered Huainan and fought until the foot of Shouchun City.

Liu Bei lost more than half of his troops in this battle, was killed in fright, and did not dare to stay in Huainan any longer, and immediately led thousands of defeated soldiers to flee back to Xuzhou in embarrassment.

Sun Jian, on the other hand, had less than 5,000 remnants left, and he did not dare to fight again after retreating to Shouchun.

The enemy aid has retreated, Sun Jian lost more than half of his troops, and once again the army came to Shouchun, and Diao Xiong was finally able to complete the siege of Shouchun City with the momentum of a great victory and the advantage of troops.

The siege of the city has been completed, and Mink Xiong summoned all the troops in the tent to discuss the plan to break the city.

"Although Liu Bei retreated, Sun Jian still has more than 4,000 soldiers and horses, and Shouchun City is extremely strong, do you have any good strategy to quickly break through the enemy city?" Mink Xiong asked.

When the words fell, Li Yan immediately got up and arched his hand: "General, Yan has a plan, and he will break Shouchun without much effort." ”

Li Yan has a plan!

Diao Xiong's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "What is the plan of the positive side, hurry up and listen to it." ”

"Outside of Shouchun, there are 100,000 male soldiers available, so why sacrifice the lives of our soldiers to attack the city." The corners of Li Yan's mouth raised a sly smile, and he raised his hand to point to the northwest of Shouchun.

The eyes of everyone in the tent came out invariably, and they all looked in the northwest direction.

Diao Xiong was also stunned, and immediately in his mind, the memory of history suddenly appeared, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a knowing smile.

"The right plan should be to dig up the fertilizer water embankment and flood Shouchun City, right?" Mink Xiong laughed.

Li Yan was stunned, nodded and smiled: "Yes, this is exactly my strategy." ”

The generals in the tent suddenly realized, and they were all excited for a while.

In the past, when Cao Cao attacked Yecheng to break Yuan Shang, and Xiapi broke Lu Bu, he had flooded his plans, all of which worked.

Shouchun is bordered by Huaishui in the north and Feishui in the west, which is the place where the two water systems converge, and it is an excellent place for flooding.

In fact, Diao Xiong had considered the plan of flooding before, but at that time, the enemy army still had a lot of troops, and Liu Bei formed a horn outside the city, and he could not dig the embankment smoothly with his current strength.

And now, Sun Jian's lone army has been surrounded in the city, and the time has come, and it is the time to use the plan.

At this time, Wen Ping said: "Breaking the river to irrigate the city, although it is a ruthless trick, but the damage to Shouchun is also very great, Shouchun is the prosperous place of Huainan, if it is damaged like this, it seems to be a pity." ”

The generals' emotions calmed down a little, and they all began to feel a little pity for the destruction of Shouchun.

Mink Xiong resolutely said: "Sun Ce in the south has taken Jiangdong, and Dong Zhuo in Guanzhong has also pacified Xiliang and is returning to Chang'an, there is not much time left for us, we have no choice but to break Shouchun quickly." ”

The categorical words suddenly woke up the generals, and everyone's expressions became resolute again.

According to the latest information in Jiangdong, Sun Ce has preliminarily broken through Jiangdong, and is now leading an army of about 20,000 people to cross the river, obviously preparing to come to the rescue of Shouchun.

In Guanzhong, Dong Zhuo had killed Han Sui and led the victorious army back to Chang'an.

Once Dong Zhuo returns to Chang'an, he will definitely not be able to tolerate Diao Xiong sitting big, and it is inevitable to turn his face when the time comes, and with the current strength of Diao Xiong, he will not be able to withstand the pressure of fighting on two fronts.

Therefore, Diao Xiong must now capture Shou as soon as possible and capture Huainan, so that he can have the strength to withdraw from the west and return to Nanyang to deal with Dong Zhuo, a giant crocodile.

"The general is reasonable, in order to capture Huainan as soon as possible, he must be ruthless." Even Xu Shu, who was dozing, spoke out in agreement.

The opinions of everyone have been agreed, and Diao Xiong has no doubts, so he immediately ordered to mobilize the sergeants to break the fat water in the starry night to irrigate Shouchun City.

The next day, when the sky was bright, Mink Xiong ordered all the troops besieging the city to move to the high ground near Shouchun, and at the same time, sent 10,000 soldiers and horses to dig the embankment of Feishui day and night.

Shouchun City is quite close to Feishui, standing at the head of the city, you can almost see Feishui, how can Diao Xiong not attract Sun Jian's attention with such a big movement.

Zhiyong is as brave as Sun Jian, and soon realizes that Diao Xiong is going to flood his Shouchun City.

Sun Jian, who realized the seriousness of the situation, immediately sent the soldiers of the three armies, as well as tens of thousands of people in the city, to carry soil and stones, fill and strengthen the surrounding city walls.

At the same time, Sun Jian took advantage of the night to repeatedly send small teams of cavalry to attack the construction site of the mink army's embankment, in an attempt to delay the progress of the embankment.

Mink Xiong had been prepared for a long time, and had ordered Xu Rong to lead 3,000 iron horsemen to the embankment construction site, successfully thwarting Sun Jian's several harassments and ensuring the progress of the project.

Three days later, early in the morning.

After 10,000 soldiers rushed to work non-stop in the starry night, the east bank of Feishui was finally dug through a hole of dozens of feet.

As soon as the embankment broke, the turbulent river surged out and swept towards Shouchun City.

In the afternoon, the breach was expanded to more than 50 zhang, and the water was even stronger, and the boiling water, like thousands of fierce beasts, roared and pounced on Shouchun City.

The boiling water, in all directions, rushed to the lowland Shouchun City, only less than half a day's effort, the Shouchun City except for the higher southeast side, the other three sides were flooded into an ocean.

Although Sun Jian had prepared in advance and strengthened the city walls, his little effort seemed so insignificant in the face of the power of nature.

The ocean of water soon poured into the city from the cracks in various places, flooded the city less than two days, the water in the city of Shouchun has been several feet deep, and several city walls have collapsed under the flood soaking.

The roof leak happened to be cloudy and rainy, and when this flood flooded the city, it rained several heavily, which further fueled the water potential.

The soldiers and civilians of Shouchun City were all soaked in water at this time, and soon the hearts of the people were depressed and complained.

While Sun Jian was suffering from flooding, Diao Xiong had moved to the high ground to sit and watch the flooding of Shouchun.

At the head of the city, Sun Jian stood there stiffly, looking around at the ocean inside and outside the city, his face surging with endless resentment and helplessness

Sun Jian looked up at the sky where the heavy rain was pouring, gritted his teeth and said: "My grandeur Sun Jian was forced to this by a teenager, God, how unfair you are to treat my Sun Jian!" ”

The torrential rain mercilessly hit Sun Jian's lonely and indignant body.

Everyone Huang Gai and other generals also shook their heads and sighed, helpless.

Indignant for a long time, Sun Jian turned his gaze to Zhang Zhao: "Zibu, now that the matter has happened, do you still have a strategy to retreat from the enemy?" ”

"Forgive Zhao bluntly" Zhang Zhao coughed a few times, "The few collapsed places in the city wall can't be filled at all, and the morale of the army in the city has fallen to the bottom. ”

At the head of the city, death is silent.

Sun Jian's brows deepened, and his eyes flashed with displeasure, as if he was dissatisfied with Zhang Zhao's words of "self-inflicted demoralization".

"What should I do in your opinion?" Sun Jian said with a frown.

Zhang Zhao sighed and said slowly: "The only way to do this is to abandon Shouchun and retreat to Hefei in the south." ”

Sun Jian's figure was suddenly shocked.

The Huaishui Basin, where Shouchun is located, is the essence of Huainan, with the largest population and the most fertile grain fields, all concentrated in this area.

If Shouchun is abandoned now, it is equivalent to giving up all the essence of Huainan to Mink Xiong.

In Sun Jian's view, abandonment is not only a fertile soil, but also the dignity of his famous general.

The dignified Sun Jian, who killed Dong Zhuo back then, retreated and dominated the world, but now he was killed by Mink Xiong, a rising star, from Nanyang to Runan, from Runan to Huainan, and now even Huainan can't hold it, and he wants to be killed by Mink Xiong to abandon Shouchun and flee south in a hurry.

Where is Sun Jian's prestige, where is the glory!

When Sun Jian heard Zhang Zhao's plan, the first thought that came to his mind was:

Shouchun must not be abandoned!
