"Kill...... Kill......"

The shouts of killing sounded again, this was only the second day of the attack on Xiangyang, but wave after wave of waves had already made the entire Xiangyang crumbling.

After all, there is too much difference between the soldiers on both sides, and Wei Tao's subordinates are all brave men who have fought a hundred battles in the province, but Jingzhou has been peaceful for a long time and cannot fight for a long time.

And there is one thing, so that the combat power of the two sides is more distinct, compared to Xiangyang City, only Wen Ping is a general, Wei Tao directly sent several generals to attack from all sides, and there are generals who take the lead, especially a fierce general like Dian Wei directly rushed to the city, which suddenly made the entire Xiangyang City precarious.

This is Wei Tao stimulated by Jia Xu's words, knowing that time is not for himself, if he does not work hard, then it is very likely that he will fall behind the other princes.

After all, Wei Tao knew that what Jia Xu said was naturally not bad.

Especially Cao Cao, even if the ministers of Jingzhou already had the intention of surrendering to Cao Cao, then Cao Cao did not hesitate to order Xiahou Yuan to attack Fancheng directly, but one day to surrender, that is, to attack one day, until Fancheng was captured.

At the same time, Jiangxia has also been like this, and after years of fighting with it, Jiangxia's army and soldiers have been weakened, and Huang's grandfather and son are not Jiangdong's opponents, and Jiangxia is about to be overturned.

In fact, if you really look at it from the perspective of military strength alone, Jingzhou's strength is indeed not weak, and it can be regarded as a very powerful prince in the world, but unfortunately, this is only the strength on paper.

Not to mention that the Jingzhou army has little training and lax armaments, just saying that the morale of their army is unbearable.

Liu Biao in Jingzhou has been sick for several months, and the power in Jingzhou is controlled by Cai Mao and others.

It's a pity that Cai Mao and others have the intention of being in power. But he has no intention of seizing power. They want to take this opportunity to take refuge in one side. In order to win the high-ranking officials.

It will be the courage of the soldiers, and the upper ones will also be effective!

With Cai Mao and others thinking like this, how can other soldiers not think like this?

Anyway, even if you win the battle, you will only surrender to the other party in the end, so why risk your life to fight hard?

Under such an idea, most of the Jingzhou soldiers had no desire to fight at all, and dealt with it as soon as possible, as long as the other party was tougher. They just retreated, and they didn't mean to fight at all.

"Xiangyang is worthy of being a major place in Jingzhou, although it seems to be crumbling, but it has always been unfalling, that Wen Ping really deserves to be the general of Jingzhou, and he can be extraordinary, just this point, I am afraid that there are only Wenyuan, Gongming and a few other people in our army who can compare."

Wei Tao did not attack the city wall in person, after all, it was too dangerous to attack the city in person, even if he knew that Wei Tao was invincible. His men did not allow him to do so, after all, during the siege. A stray arrow may kill Wei Tao.

Today's Wei Tao is the backbone of the army.

"If this battle continues like this, even if Wen Ping is an invincible general of our army, in the end, I am afraid that it will inevitably be the same as the day before, it seems that it is not supported, but in the end I still have to retreat."

The siege battle is not so simple, especially the siege side, without paying a lot of casualties, even the city wall can not be attacked, in fact, the reason why Wei Tao was able to create such a situation is also thanks to the reason why the Jingzhou army has a loose garrison and low morale.

"What the lord said is good, although Wen Ping is already out, but as long as he is still there, this Jingzhou City can be guaranteed, even if he is not there, unless Cai Mao and others immediately abandon the city and flee, otherwise our army may not be able to take Xiangyang easily. Fortunately, our army still has Lu Ziming, as long as he strikes at the inside, he will definitely cut off his morale, and it will be difficult for Xiangyang not to surrender at that time. ”

Jia Xu nodded slightly, it was so hard to let Lu Meng enter Xiangyang City, for this move, five hundred soldiers are indeed not much, but as long as they can cause some chaos, under the impact of internal and external forces, with the current Jingzhou soldiers, they will definitely not be able to resist.

Just by relying on such an attack, Xiangyang will be taken, and neither Wei Tao nor Jia Xu has too much hope.

Wei Tao nodded slightly, then his expression was correct, and he waved his hand suddenly, and gave the order.

"Signal!"

"Woooooooooo......oo Woohoo......"

A horn sounded, blowing back and forth in a situation of three long and two short, which naturally sounded no problem to ordinary people, but after hearing it, Lu Meng in Xiangyang City understood that Wei Tao was ordering him to move!

Lu Meng was very decisive, and he had already prepared, so he immediately led people to the city wall, and naturally there were Jingzhou generals who noticed this along the way, if it was an ordinary time, even if Lu Meng was really the general of the Cao army, they would never allow Lu Meng to go up to the city wall and get close to the city gate.

But this time is not an ordinary time, hearing that the other party has questions, Lu Meng just unceremoniously and directly reprimanded.

"The prime minister wants to save Jing Xiang, but the deployment of the army is not a day's work, and the general is also a famous general, if like me, it is okay to directly lead the tiger and leopard to ride south, but if the prime minister wants to transfer the army down, he has to do a battle with the general. With the strength of the Jingzhou army, when the prime minister arrives, I am afraid that this Xiangyang will already change its name and surname. In this case, what is the point of the prime minister sending me? ”

Hearing what Lu Meng said, those suspicious generals suddenly looked ashamed and didn't dare to say more.

But Lu Meng understood the truth even more, and he understood that this alone was not enough, these words could scare those ordinary generals, but they might not be able to frighten Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue and others, and immediately continued.

"But do you know why I haven't been on the ground for long, leading the troops to attack the general? Don't I know that the general is best at fire attack and camp raids? Even if there is no defense for a while, the arrangement of the general must have countermeasures. Because if not, how could Xiangyang resist the general's offensive? If you weren't for your cowardice, you would have achieved at least ten days! ”

These words made Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue and others who originally rushed over to persuade them speechless.

The facts are right in front of you.

"General Cao, the tiger and leopard cavalry under your command is indeed the elite of the world, but the number of people is still insufficient after all, not to mention the ability of the general to be hired, I believe that he will be able to hold Xiangyang."

Until this time, Cai Mao still said so.

This is not because Cai Mao did not believe that Lu Meng was Cao General's general, but because Cai Mao and others surrendered to get better treatment, so they naturally did not want to lower their impression in Cao Cao's heart.

And they didn't think that only a few hundred people could do anything, and if 'Cao Chun' had any chances, it would be even more difficult for them to explain to Cao Cao.

That's why they came to dissuade them.

"Humph! It's really ridiculous, the general's command has already hit the city wall, and you are still grinding here, as if you are not worried. Xiangyang is an important place in Jingzhou, if the prime minister doesn't attach great importance to it, why did he send me first? ”

Lu Meng unceremoniously directly accused, as if he was really 'Cao Chun'.

"I also know that you still have the Jingzhou Navy army that hasn't moved, just in case. When the time comes, you can advance or retreat, but do you think that if you keep your money, you can keep your wealth? When the time comes, will there be a place for you in the world? ”

Hearing this, even Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue were speechless for a while.

The Jingzhou Navy can be said to be a back road for the Jingzhou family, and it is precisely because of this that Cai Mao and others are reluctant to use it.

"What the general said is very true, Xiangyang must not be lost, I will order the whole army to hold on, and never lose Xiangyang!"

After all, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun are different from Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue, and when they heard Lu Meng say this, they immediately reacted, and they were ready to defend Xiangyang.

And Cai Mao and Zhang Yun are actually in charge of the military after all, at this time, they are determined, and Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue can't stop it.

What's more, even Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue were also persuaded by Lu Meng.

There are a lot of soldiers in Xiangyang, and although Jingzhou has been peaceful for a long time, Xiangyang is the hometown of Jingzhou soldiers after all, as long as Cai Mao can personally lead the army to defend it, then Wei Tao will never be able to go down to Xiangyang in ten days and a half months, and there will be a fierce battle for several months.

This is not what Wei Tao wants, let alone what Lu Meng wants, the reason why Lu Meng blended into the city is because of this.

"The strength of the Jingzhou army is still there, not to mention anything else, just the generals and soldiers are gathered, even if the general's corporal has the ability to be one to ten, it is only on par with the Jingzhou army."

Lu Meng knew that the time had come, so he immediately said slowly.

"The biggest weakness of the Jingzhou army today is that there are no generals who can compete with the Wei army, resulting in low morale. Although in terms of strength alone, I may not be able to defeat the general's command alone, but with the help of the Jingzhou army, I think I can still defend Xiangyang. ”

Having said this, Lu Meng's meaning is already very obvious, that is, he hopes that the Jingzhou army can obey his command.

Needless to say, there is no need to say how difficult this matter is, but Cai Mao only hesitated slightly, and then looked at Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue, who did not mean to object, and immediately nodded and agreed.

"Okay, the remaining elite soldiers in Xiangyang City are still under the command of General Cao Chun, as long as Xiangyang can be kept, then we are all willing to obey the general's orders!"

Lu Meng was slightly stunned, although he asked himself that he had won the trust of the people in Jingzhou, he also didn't expect that the other party would hand over all the military power so easily.

However, it was just a moment, and Lu Meng understood that it was not how much he had won the trust of the other party, but that he was afraid that the people of Jingzhou, who had surrendered to others from the beginning, had already been ready to hand over the power in their hands, so naturally they didn't feel that it was inappropriate to hand over to Lu Meng at this time.

Thinking of this, Lu Meng couldn't help but smile slightly, and nodded quite confidently.

"Rest assured, everyone." (To be continued......)
