Chapter 343: Bait and Bait

"Capture Wei Tao alive! Capture Wei Tao alive! ”

Not long after, bursts of loud shouts came from all directions, and the sound was higher than a while, and when they swept away, they would find that Liu Bei's army appeared in all directions.

"Where did Liu Bei come from with so many people?"

Wei Tao was slightly stunned, until the battle has been fought so far, how many people are between the two sides have already understood, Guan Yu and others have led the army, and their total number has accounted for most of Liu Beijun, at this time, Liu Beijun cannot have enough manpower to surround Wei Tao.

It can even be said that if Liu Bei really mobilized such an army, then it would be enough to confront Wei Tao head-on, why bother to get this.

After all, no matter how strong Wei Tao is, he is really not the opponent of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, and Huang Zhong.

"Huh...... I see, no wonder I said that Liu Bei is also a prince, how could he be defeated by our army so easily. ”

But at this time, Zhou Yu let out a laugh, obviously seeing the reality of the other party, and said directly about it.

"These shouldn't be some elite soldiers, or except for Guan Yu, everyone else should just be forcibly arrested to make up the number, I'm afraid this time is to make the Wuxi barbarians and the people of Changsha uneasy. In vain, Liu Xuande is known for his benevolence and righteousness, but in fact, it is really just that. ”

Hearing Zhou Yu say this, Wei Tao also understood, just looking at the panicked expressions of those soldiers, they didn't look like some elite soldiers.

Obviously, these guys are just what they say, and they're being caught on the fly. It's really not a powerful person.

"Humph! So what? Since our army is able to guarantee their lives. It's also able to defeat the army. Isn't it nothing? Under the combined attack of internal and external, General Wei will be defeated for the first time! ”

In the face of Zhou Yu's words, neither Guan Yu nor Zhang Fei could answer, only Ma Chaohao said directly without care.

"As long as you can be defeated, the lord will rule the world, support the Han family, reproduce the majesty of the Han Dynasty, and the world will be happy at that time. All the people live in peace, but it is also the realization of our ambition! ”

I have to say that after experiencing many things, Ma Chao has also become a little slippery.

However, what Ma Chao said is not bad, although Liu Bei sent all the top generals, but there are also many other generals under his command, plus his own command, he is gradually coming towards Wei Tao's oppression, and the outermost soldiers are already unable to resist.

After all, Liu Bei's move was also a surprise attack, and under the enemy's back, many soldiers were panicked. If you are attacked again, it is not a knee-jerk counterattack at all. Instead, step back.

When one person retreats, others will retreat, and so on in a vicious circle, others will gradually retreat.

This is the result of the raid.

"Zhuge Kongming is indeed Zhuge Kongming. Lord, if you want to leave these people behind, then I'm afraid that the lord is also in danger, if the lord takes the first step, I will lead the army to stop it. ”

Wei Tao, who really knew Zhou Yu's plan, only nodded after a slight hesitation.

"Good! And be careful, even if there is an army, it is not as important as Gong Jin, if something is wrong, Gong Jin will retreat immediately! Zilong, you are protecting Gong Jin, don't let him have an accident. ”

"No!"

After Wei Tao finished giving the order, he led the troops away.

Although Liu Bei is also surrounded on all sides, with Liu Bei's strength and the bait of the general, it is naturally impossible to arrange the four sides impermeable, Wei Tao led people to rush and kill, and it is not difficult to rush out.

However, Wei Tao is not the kind of person who patronizes himself and escapes, after killing a passage, Wei Tao is the leader stationed here, but there are those who rush to kill, Wei Tao will not be spared, until Zhou Yu led the others out of the encirclement, Wei Tao led the army and slowly retreated.

"Lord, Zhuge Liang can be regarded as defeating us this time, but fortunately, if this damage can be exchanged for the four counties of Jingnan, it is still hopeful."

Zhou Yu didn't care about being covered in blood at this time, and immediately talked to Wei Tao after leading people to withdraw.

"It is impossible to completely destroy Liu Bei, but please also ask the lord to lead the army with him, and don't let them retreat easily."

"Good!"

Wei Tao nodded slightly, that is, he ordered the troops, although Wei Tao's troops were seriously injured at this time, but it was not a problem to find thousands of soldiers, plus Wei Tao did not want to attack Liu Bei this time, but to delay his action, so everything was very smooth.

Under such circumstances, Liu Bei did not return to Changsha until the second half of the night.

However, although he was tired, Liu Bei's harvest was a lot, although Wei Tao was prepared, but it was impossible for a lot of grain and grass to be the first to be emptied, so if you add this time to kill Wei Tao's corporals, it is really Liu Bei's victory over Wei Tao.

On the way back to the city, Liu Bei was also quite excited, and frequently said to Zhuge Liang.

"This time, thanks to Kong Ming, although this plan is dangerous, the harvest is not small."

"Lord, although Wei Tao is defeated, but the strength still exists, the lord can not be underestimated, after the rest and recuperation, the lord should quickly seize Jiangling, Xiangyang and the two places, and then immediately send someone to unite Sun Quan and form an alliance with him. In this way, it can become a situation from the south to the north, and only in this way can the world be divided. Then when there is a change in the north, the lord will attack in two ways, so that the long-cherished wish of the lord can be achieved! ”

In fact, Zhuge Liang was also faintly uneasy in his heart, but Zhuge Liang was only for Liu Bei.

Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Bei agreed in his heart, went up to the Northern Expedition, supported the Han Dynasty, and then built a glorious Han Dynasty, this is what Liu Bei wanted.

"The general is back, open the city quickly!"

Just in Liu Bei's thoughts, he had already arrived at Changsha, but this time Changsha City did not open the city in advance to greet him, but closed the city gate, as if he didn't know that Liu Bei had returned.

Liu Bei couldn't help frowning slightly, not because he had any suspicions, but because he was a little annoyed.

Although he brought out most of the soldiers, he also left the guards and soldiers in the city, how could no one come?

"Hahahaha...... I don't know who you're calling? It's a pity that no matter who you call, I'm afraid he can't be with you anymore! ”

Just when Liu Bei was angry in his heart, he heard a burst of laughter, and in the laughter, all the flags on the city fell down, and then a strong man appeared on the city wall, and as soon as he stepped on the city wall, he looked down like a bandit leader, and said mockingly.

"Liu Bei, Uncle Ben has been waiting for a long time! I am the general's general Gan Ning, the general of the navy, on the order of the general, came to collect the four cities of Changsha, Lingjun, Guiyang, and Wuling, and if it was thanks to the cooperation of Xuande Gong, all the troops in the city were transferred out, and the city was handed over, thank you here! Hahahaha......"

In Gan Ning's laughter, the soldiers next to him stepped forward to shoot down the arrows in their hands without any orders, and they could see the arrows raining down suddenly.

In the face of such a situation, even Liu Bei had to lead the army to retreat, not daring to face his front, until the whole army withdrew from a mile to avoid the rain of arrows.

At this time, if you want to enter the city, the only way is to attack the city, but it is only for attacking the camp, and there is no siege equipment at all, how can people attack the camp?

Liu Bei's army, which was still happily returned to the city, was as if it had been beaten by frost at this time, which could be described as very depressed, and the high morale plummeted.

"Damn it! Where did he get reinforcements from? These days, the Weitao battalion has long been targeted to death by our army, and it is absolutely impossible to ambush so many troops! As for lying in ambush in the field to avoid the prying eyes of our army, then where will they get so much provisions? ”

Liu Bei was very angry, and rarely yelled at his subordinates.

It's not that Liu Bei's heart is insufficient, it's just that not long ago he was still thinking about how he could win, but in a blink of an eye, the situation changed dramatically, if it weren't for Liu Bei's own good temperament, I'm afraid that he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.

"My lord, the general of Fang Cai claims to be the commander of the navy, and I am afraid that he came from the waterway. Of course, if this is the case, then it will not be able to escape the surveillance of our army, and I am afraid that it will come around the sea. Only from the sea, with the strength of our army, can it be quietly and imperceptibly. ”

Zhuge Liang said with a bitter face, but the more he recounted, the more bitter it became, and the strength between the two sides was already very obvious.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Gongjin was so decisive that day, not only using his own camp as bait, but even using himself and Wei Tao as bait. And our army was at a loss, although it was to break through its camp in one fell swoop, but in fact, in terms of the result, it was just picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons. ”

"Damn! That Wei Tao was so cunning! Although our army broke through its large camp, it was only a small victory, and at most it lost food and grass, but he captured our Changsha ......"

Speaking of this, Liu Bei paused slightly, but remembered Gan Ning's words, and hurriedly asked.

"Then since Wei Tao may want to take away my four counties in Jingnan, can Zero County, Guiyang, and Wuling be protected?"

"My lord, since Changsha is in the hands of the other party, then the lord's seal will definitely be taken by him, so with that seal, as long as the method of defrauding the city is used, I am afraid that the other three counties will also fall into his hands one after another. My lord, I have been defeated for a while. ”

Although Zhuge Liang was reluctant to do this, he finally cleaned up his mood and said bluntly.

"Only now, or uniting that Cao Cao and Sun Quan is also a law, although their two armies are also fighting, but seeing Wei Tao take the four counties of Jingnan will definitely come together, and Wei Tao will definitely have no time to take care of our army at that time, as long as he can seize the opportunity, he must do something!"

"This ......"

Liu Bei was also hesitant for a while, after all, although he said so, who could know what the final result would be?

Liu Bei also temporarily retreated anyway, and after capturing the four counties of Jingnan, Wei Tao almost took half of Jingzhou, and his strength increased unprecedentedly. (To be continued......)
