Majestic rain, covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder

As Liu Bowen said, the intermittent heavy rain lasted for more than a month, and the rivers in many places in the south were long, and the water potential was very urgent

Such a water situation naturally worries the fishermen who live on water, however, not to mention the fishermen, even the warships moored by Liu Xiu and the river water village have also suffered a lot of losses!

At this time, in Panyang City, after more than a month of rest, the commanders and troops of several counties under Liu Xiu's command have undergone great changes;

The dilemma when he fought against Sun Ce earlier, Liu Xiu remembered it vividly, because of his own poor scheduling of the generals, which directly caused his side to suffer a great loss in the number of generals in the war, otherwise I am afraid that Sun Ce's forces in Yuzhang County would have been destroyed long ago!

Liu Xiu considered this, and no longer cared about Yang Ye and others who were still under Liu Biao's name, and resolutely transferred Yang Erlang from Wuling County to the north;

Later, he handed over the military and political affairs of Lingling County and Wuling County to several brothers of Yang Gon and Xie Xuan, and transferred Yang Wulang to Xie Xuan, ready to go to Nanchang at any time; As for Xie Xuan and Yang Shilang, who were originally in Changsha, they never had any new tasks!

As for Guiyang and Luling City, Fang Xuanling and several civil and military generals were still in charge;

At this time, a large number of civil and military generals gathered in Panyang City, such as Luo Cheng (97), Zhang Hao (98), Yang Erlang (94), and Yang Sanlang (93); There are also Wei Rui and Yang Liulang to govern the army, Liu Bowen to manage the government, and several female generals of the Yang family to assist, which can be described as full of talents; Liu Xiu is confident that he will definitely not be less than Sun Ce in terms of the number of generals this time;

Not only that, Liu Xiu recruited 10,000 elite soldiers from Changsha who were newly trained by Xie Xuan, and after Xie Xuan's training for nearly half a year, although they were still far less than the strong soldiers of Beifu, they were also much stronger than ordinary soldiers, and they belonged to the elite soldiers; As a result, Panyang County has a total of more than 40,000 soldiers, including 5,000 strong soldiers from Beifu, 10,000 elite soldiers from Changsha, and the rest are ordinary soldiers.

Gathering such soldiers, Liu Xiu was naturally complacent, although he was ready to send troops to Nanchang again to avenge that plan!

For the defeat in the First Battle of Nanchang, Liu Xiu attributed it to his own negligence on the enemy's negligence; At the beginning, because he had not found out Sun Ce's information, he raided Pan Yang; And he himself only brought a small number of generals and soldiers from the beginning, if it weren't for this, how could he make that Sun Ce get such a big bargain;

But now that Liu Xiu plans to send troops to Nanchang again, he will naturally not be as negligent as last time; Although Pan Yang will still leave a large number of soldiers and horses, he will send troops to Nanchang from Luling, Changsha, and Panyang.

Just after the heavy rain, it is rare for the weather to be clear,

Early in the morning, Liu Xiu took a group of civil ministers and military generals to the camp of the 20,000 troops who were about to go out outside Panyang City, and started an impassioned oath meeting!

I saw Liu Xiu wearing a fiery red armor, standing on a high platform, his vermilion cloak fluttering in the wind, pressing the sword in his left hand, and shouting loudly: "All the soldiers are the warriors of our army, more than a month ago, we were carelessly defeated in Nanchang, and this time we will go out again, we will conquer Nanchang, and we will be ashamed!" ”

"Shame on you! Shame on you! ”

Listening to the momentum that was even more powerful than last time, Liu Xiu nodded slightly with satisfaction, waved his right hand, and waited until the whole army quieted down before ordering: "Wei Rui listens to the order!" ”

"Whoa!"

"Pan Yang is the top priority of our army, there must be no mistakes, General Ben ordered you to lead 20,000 troops, supplemented by Yang Sanlang, to jointly guard Panyang, in case of Chaisang, Danyang and other places!" Liu Xiu ordered in a deep voice.

"Whoa!" Wei Rui and Yang Sanlang were ordered to retreat.

"Yang Yanzhao and Luo Cheng listen to orders!"

"Whoa!"

"The position of the vanguard is very important, General Jinben ordered you to be the vanguard general, Luo became an auxiliary, and some cavalry and the strong army of Beifu were the vanguard! Open the mountain and build a bridge when you meet the water, until Nanchang! ”

"Whoa!" Yang Liulang and Luo Cheng were also ordered to retreat.

Liu Xiu ordered again: "In addition, General Ben personally commanded 15,000 soldiers and horses for the Chinese army, Liu Bowen as the military division, Zhang Hao and Yang Erlang as generals, and went straight to Nanchang!" ”

"Whoa!" Everyone answered in unison.

Liu Xiu never stopped, and continued: "In addition, Changsha Yang Wulang led 10,000 troops to the expedition, and Luling Fang Xuanling also led 10,000 troops to the expedition!" This time we will capture Nanchang, and we will not win! ”

"No win, no return!"

Liu Xiu's big move did not deliberately hide from Sun Ce and Zhou Yu in Nanchang, but deliberately released the news in Nanchang City, saying that the 100,000-strong army was about to attack Nanchang, and those who surrendered were not guilty!

As a result, the newly recruited soldiers of Sun Ce and others in Nanchang directly lost much confidence, and only their original army of 20,000 was not affected!

At this time, in the Nanchang City Guard, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and others were also anxious, in their original plan, it was to capture Luling and Nanchang, so that they could be horns for each other, watch and help each other, and not become a lonely city; However, they underestimated Fang Xuanling and others too much, so that the army was defeated, and only the isolated city of Nanchang remained; Although there were forces like Chai Sang asking for help earlier, Yuan Shu is now busy with his own affairs, where can he pay attention to Sun Ce, so he is still no news today

Sun Ce thought hard for a few days, and finally could only say hatefully: "Gong Jin, why don't we wait for Yuzhang to be withdrawn?!" ”

Zhou Yu was also distressed for a few days, after all, he still couldn't do it, and after listening to what Sun Ce said, his heart began to waver: even if he Zhou Yu was conceited and wise, but it was also difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice!

Therefore, Zhou Yu also analyzed: "Now that Liu Xiu is surrounded by three roads, even if we want to withdraw, we need to be cautious!" We have another 20,000 soldiers, once we retreat out of the city, the movement is too big, if we are not careful, I am afraid that we will fall into the encirclement of Liu Xiu! ”

"So what are we going to do?! Gong Jin, teach me quickly! Sun Ce couldn't wait.

Zhou Yu frowned and said calmly: "Now there is only"

On the main road from Panyang to Nanchang, Liu Xiu led the troops all the way to hurry, no matter what conspiracy Sun Ce had, he had already made up his mind to reduce the ten meetings with one force, and pacify Nanchang with the momentum of thunder!

PS: Classification of Sergeant Ranks:

county soldiers, who are occasionally trained as janitors;

Ordinary soldiers, regular training non-commissioned officers, standing army and the like;

Elite soldiers, such as Danyang soldiers, are fierce, brave, or experienced soldiers;

Strong army, specially trained soldiers, such as trapped camps, Beifu soldiers, future tiger and leopard cavalry, etc. (there are strong and weak points), rely not only on the courage of soldiers, most of them have their own special tactics, art of war, and battle formations;

Xiao Xu feels that the more he writes, the more messy it becomes, and he is ready to end this plot quickly!
