Juyong Fortress is not the first pass of Gyeonggi in later generations - Juyong Pass, which was called Xiguan at this time, and is located about 100 miles southeast of Juyong City.

This place was a temporary camp when Qin Shi Huang built the Great Wall, and Juyong means to live in Yong. There were many people living there, and over time it became a county seat, which continued from the Qin Dynasty to the present, and now it exists as the seat of Shanggu County.

The city is not big, there is no urn city, the moat is natural, the Sushui - that is, the Sanli River in later generations is in the west of the city, and the pillow water is in the south of the city. The width of the city wall is not more than 100 steps, and the height is less than two zhang, not to mention the majestic city, and even the fortress cannot be called. The inhabitants of the city will be more than 3,000, and before the battle began, several hundred more have fled, and now with the defenders, there are less than 3,000.

However, it is such a small city, but it has become the last reliance of the three princes of the dynasty, the clan relatives of the Han family, and Liu Yu, the pastor of Youzhou.

The cold wind blowing from the northern wasteland raged on the Saibei Plain, and even the Yanshan Mountain Range could only tremble in the wind, not to mention the small Juyong City.

There was only a wisp of slanting light left in the sunset, Liu Yu stood at the head of the city, looking at the direction of the long wind, as far as the field of vision could see, but only the north wind was Xiao Xiao, the four fields were empty, and his heart was desolate.

The wind is dignified, and the lonely city is bleak.

If there is no miracle, then this is probably the place where he is buried.

"Lord, the wind is strong in the city, the Gongsun army retreats today, but the morale is not a little worse, there may still be a fierce battle tomorrow, and the lord must preside over the overall situation, you still ...... Ahem, ahem, ahem! A violent cough interrupted the visitor's advice, but fortunately the meaning was clear.

Liu Yu stroked his chest and nodded, but what he responded to the other party was a sigh full of feelings: "I regret not listening to Zitu's advice, I ended up in such a situation today, and I am to blame, tomorrow." Is there really a tomorrow? ”

"Lord ......" Wei You was speechless.

Among Liu Yu's staff and subordinates, he is the only one who has always opposed making enemies with Gongsun Zhan.

He persuaded him to persuade him to be small and unbearable, thinking that Liu Yu's reputation and status were very high, but in the troubled times, he still had to have the help of his ministers. He suggested that Liu Yu should not try to subdue Gongsun Zan by force, but should use the method of gentleness to drive and use the other party.

His point of view is quite reasonable, Han Gaozu founded the country not by using the courage of Han Xin and Yingbu. After the success of the rabbit and the dog cooked, the bird was hidden? Liu Yu may not know these truths, but he has a foothold in Youzhou and relies on local forces. Wei's point of view is certainly not supported.

Now that the army is defeated and poor, what else can you say? can only be gloomy, speechless and condensed.

Liu Yu sighed again: "Zitu protects my family here, and has done our master's kindness, when the city is broken, you might as well forbear it for the time being and stoop to it." Leave it useful, thinking that the back picture is yes. ”

"What did the lord say?" Wei You was excited, took a few steps forward, and said in a loud voice: "The Lord is worried." The lord humiliated the ministers and died, and the lord has today's embarrassment, which is to wait for the dereliction of duty of these staff, and the time of crisis. Even if you don't have the strength to save the day, how can you be the one who is greedy for life and afraid of death? Unless the Lord is willing to follow Han Shin's example. Otherwise, you'd rather die than surrender! ”

"Zitu, you don't have to persuade anymore." A sneer appeared on Liu Yu's withered face: "Who am I?" Who is the thief? Although the situation is poor now, even if there is a day when the chaos is set right, the old man will still leave a green history, and the two thieves will be spurned by future generations after all, how can I clean my name in order to survive? ”

"That's what the lord said." This topic is not the first time Wei You has brought it up, and it has become more straightforward each time, and Liu Yu's reaction has become bigger and bigger. Sometimes Wei You also felt that he couldn't figure it out, the lord could make peace with those miscellaneous Hu families and tribal leaders, so why couldn't he deal with Gongsun Zhan, who was also a Hanchen?

In his opinion, the battle between Liu Yu and Gongsun Chan was completely unnecessary from the beginning.

Gongsun Zan is not Yuan Shao, he didn't expect to be the emperor, if Liu Yu arrives, he will treat each other with sincerity, are you afraid that you won't be able to entrap the other party? Gongsun Zhan's force, coupled with Liu Yu's reputation, what a perfect combination? Even if there is no Wang Yu, it is enough to compete with Yuan Shao in Hebei.

But Liu Yu just can't stand Gongsun Zhan's rebelliousness, but can accept Hu Lu's rudeness and rudeness, which is really incomprehensible.

Could it be that the lord was really deceived by Hu Lu's rudeness on the surface, and he couldn't see that the other party had no faith at all? Don't understand the truth that those who are not of my race will have different hearts? Or do you underestimate the other person too much, thinking that you can play the other person on the applause?

Maybe it's a bit of both? In the end, it was a big mistake. Wei You sighed silently in his heart.

As if seeing what the staff was thinking, Liu Yu suddenly explained: "The temperament of the Hu people is not good, but they have not been educated, and after getting along for a long time, they can feel the simplicity in their hearts. Although they don't understand the sage's subtle words, they still attach great importance to faithfulness, otherwise they wouldn't have fought side by side with the old man in Jixian County. ”

"If the battle is lost, they can't be blamed, the main thing is that the old man cares about the safety of the people and fails to let go, and the thief is cunning, in order to win, he even set fire to the people's houses and do great injustice. After all, Ziyu and Shunzhi's soldiers had not experienced many battle formations, and it was reasonable for them to flee timidly when they saw that the Chinese army was in danger. ”

Wei You became more and more speechless.

Hu people are rustic? Xian Yufu and Yan Rou's subordinates have not experienced the battle formation? Seeing that the Chinese army is in danger, it is reasonable for the soldiers to disperse? What kind of reasoning is this? If that's the case, the sows will be able to climb the tree!

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that when Xian Yufu and Yan Rou's gang broke and fled, the troops were almost still intact, and there was no doubt that they retreated as a whole, not scattered and fled!

As long as they have a trace of loyalty, they will not watch the lord with hundreds of remnants waiting for death in Juyong City!

In the battle of Jixian County, the guards trained by Liyi had already lost more than half. pursued all the way, and in the end, there were only more than 400 people who followed Juyong City. If it weren't for the fact that Juyong City was too small and Gongsun Zhan didn't bring siege equipment, Liu Yu wouldn't be able to hold it even for a day. Even if the residents of the city are mobilized to help defend it, it is unlikely to last for three days.

You know, there's an army of 20,000 outside!

And what Liu Yu has been counting on, the Xianbei ministries that are simple in nature and regard credit as greater than the sky, if there is one percent of Liu Yu's evaluation, it should also appear now.

But the result?

If it weren't for the fact that he and Liu Yu didn't have a few days to live. There's no need to be too serious, Wei You really wants to scold Liu Yu and wake him up and make him admit his mistake. But now, there is no need for this, let him comfort himself to the end.

"It's not that the boss refuses to come, maybe the guy who has nothing to do with Qianman is making trouble with him again. Badun, Mika, and Su Li were blocked by Xu Huang and Tian Kai. Or maybe we lost the first two battles so badly that they didn't dare to come......"

may be a relationship that he knows is difficult to escape, and Liu Yu attaches great importance to his reputation. The rambling is endless, and Wei You is regarded as a historian for future generations, and he must persuade the other party to let the other party record the justice and rationality of his behavior in the history books, and be admired and worshiped by future generations.

What else can Wei You say? can only withstand the double torture of cold wind and crooked reasoning. I endured it.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, as soon as it was dawn, Liu Yu was awakened by the sound of drums and horns.

After a trance, he finally woke up a little and realized that he was not in Luoyang City in his dream, and the noise in his ears was not the drum music in the palace, but the signal that the Gongsun army had begun to attack the city.

"Fetch my armor." Prop your arms on the couch. And he shall get up and rush to the head of the city.

Although he knows that the defeat is decided, the birds and beasts are still greedy for life, let alone him? He was also counting on a few more days until reinforcements arrived. Turning defeat into victory. He was confident that as long as he climbed to the top of the city to supervise the battle, it would be enough to boost the morale of the soldiers and the people, and they would compete to the death. If nothing else, just rely on his famous name Liu Yu!

But this opening. He was shocked to realize that his throat was very painful, and the words he spoke were hoarse and ugly, and his whole body was actually soft, and he had no strength at all, which was very similar to ...... Caught in the cold?

At the moment of life and death, I can't take care of the wind and cold, as long as I have a breath, I have to go to the city to supervise the battle. If you get the wind and cold, you won't die immediately, and the city will be breached, but it will be a life and death judgment.

With the help of his close attendants, Liu Yu climbed the city wall and startled Wei You.

"Lord, you are ......"

"Forget it, the thief army hasn't done it yet, isn't it Tianliang who found out?" Liu Yu waved his hand weakly and made a not very clever joke.

Wei You didn't care to agree, and pointed to the distance with a serious expression: "The enemy army has built some siege equipment and is about to transport it, I'm afraid it will start attacking the city soon." ”

“…… I see. Liu Yu was bored, and said a perfunctory word, and when he looked up, he saw the siege equipment that Wei Yu said at a glance. In fact, it is just some ladders, and there is a crudely made rushing car, but it is enough to deal the heaviest blow to the current Juyong City.

"A messenger has come, is it to persuade him to surrender?" At the same time as Wei You's shout sounded, Liu Yu also saw the small group of people approaching the city wall. They held their shields and walked slowly, not like they were here to attack the city, but more like they were here to negotiate.

For a moment, Liu Yu was also a little shaken, but the other party took the initiative to persuade him, if the words were appropriate, should he endure the humiliation for a while?

However, before this thought could sprout and ferment, Liu Yu was shocked, as if he had fallen naked into an ice cave. I saw that the two large shields were opened, revealing a prisoner with a cloak and a large number of flowers.

The escorted soldier kicked the man's ass and threw a dog into the mud, and the other soldier quickly stepped forward, stepped on the unlucky man's waist with one foot, grabbed the other's hair with one hand, and pulled it up, revealing a face covered in blood.

"Liu Yuanjun, do you recognize this person?"

“…… It's General Wang! Liu Yu carefully distinguished, and quickly gasped.

It's the King's Gate!

"My general has an order, and now you have no way to escape, if you are willing to surrender early, kowtow to my general and admit your mistake, it is not impossible to spare your life. If you want to go all the way to the dark, that's fine, as long as you don't regret it......"

As he spoke, the caller waved his hand, and the two escort soldiers each took out a boning knife from their bosoms and leaned down in response. Immediately, the heart-rending screams resounded through the wild, startling the defenders of the city almost unable to hold their swords.

In front of everyone's eyes, those people actually cut the king's gate alive!

No one thinks Gongsun Chan is cruel or anything, this is an era of advocating loyalty and righteousness, and a traitor like Wang Men can't be overstated. It's just that this scene is too terrifying, and the defenders at the head of the city feel cold to the bone.

"Gongsun Pifu, Gongsun Pifu, how dare you be like this, aren't you afraid of the mouths of the people of the world, don't you ......" Liu Yu was angry and afraid, pointed to Gongsun Zhan's general flag, and scolded. It's just that the wind and cold deprived him of most of his strength, and the defenders were terrified, and no one dared to be a microphone for him, where could Gongsun Chan hear his scolding?

Anyway, Gongsun Zhan didn't expect Liu Yu to surrender, otherwise he wouldn't have made such harsh conditions as kowtowing and admitting his mistakes. Seeing Liu Yu's annoyed and embarrassed but helpless appearance from a distance, Gongsun Zhan had a big heart, waved his hand, and shouted: "The enemy's courage has been lost, and the order is to attack the city!" ”

"Woo...... Woohoo......"

In the sound of drums and horns, the Gongsun army rushed to the lonely city of Juyong.
