Just when he couldn't believe it, Zhou Chao, who was full of anxiety and was looking for him everywhere, finally found his figure and rushed over. The tone was unprecedentedly eager: "General, what's going on?" Why does Liu Yan have so many reinforcements? ”

"I don't know!" Xu Sheng clenched his teeth at this time, and even the blood stains could no longer hide the swelling green tendons on his face.

Zhou Chao seemed to think of something, and suddenly trembled and said, "Could it be ...... Could it be that the lord knew that the other party would have reinforcements coming this morning, so he strictly ordered me to wait until dawn to take down the belly of the fish? Now ......."

Hearing this, Xu Sheng was silent for a moment, but he was suddenly a little depressed, if he was according to the Zhou Dynasty's assumption, it would make sense. It's a pity, the result is unacceptable to him no matter what, as one of the highest-level generals in Jingzhou, he knows very well that the seemingly strong Jingzhou is actually facing an extremely grim situation, and what this four-war place needs most is the rear and time. Such a good opportunity, if even the Yizhou gateway is not broken, you can imagine how difficult it will be in the future!

Even though Xu Sheng at this moment had the idea of fighting to the death here, he was very calm after all, his face changed for a long time, and finally a few words popped out from between his teeth: "You go to the rear and prepare to retreat!" ”

At this moment, the fish-bellied defenders also reacted quickly, and suddenly let out a deafening cheer, and their morale skyrocketed several times.

"Haha! Brethren, reinforcements are coming, kill the ...... of the dog day"

"Fuck the Jingzhou Army."

"Hahaha! Brothers, kill the dog thief Xu Sheng, he is Wang Xu's brother, Wang Xu's wife's brother, there must be a heavy reward. ”

With these unbearable scoldings, Xu Shengzhen's eyes were split, and a roar of anger came out of his throat. "Fuck, where did these bastards learn to be so vulgar?"

Zhou Chao on the side saw him like this, worried that he would lose control, so he couldn't help hugging him and said hurriedly: "General." Leave it alone. These are all gradually spread by General Zhou Zhi in the Yellow Turban Scolding War that year, and they have already learned from the north and south of the river over the years. Haven't you also learned to scold? Don't worry about such a verbal argument, retreat is important. ”

Xu Sheng was persuaded by him like this, but he also reacted, although his anger did not subside, but he also relieved his anger. Seeing that the Jingzhou army was sluggish, it almost completely lost its will to fight. didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and immediately shouted at Zhou Chao: "I will organize everyone to retreat behind the city head, you go to the back to Mingjin, immediately!" ”

"No!" Zhou Chao responded, not daring to slack off. Immediately turn around.

But before the steps could be taken, after such a delay just now, the reinforcements from the west had already shouted in unison. "Haha! The lord's strange plan, we have entered the city, and we are attacked from both sides, and the child will be captured before he is tied. ”

The chorus of tens of thousands of people shouted in unison was extremely majestic, and instantly shook people's hearts. Countless soldiers froze in place, obviously not understanding the situation. And just a step. Zhou Chao, who maintained a turning posture, was even more stiff. Stunned in place. Even Xu Sheng was a little hard to believe, and he didn't understand what was going on. I didn't react for a while.

"The sailor is invincible!"

"The sailor is invincible!"

However, as the next slogan was shouted, Zhou Chao's face instantly became extremely exciting. came back to his senses in an instant, and stood beside Xu Sheng excitedly and shouted: "It's not the Bashu reinforcements, it's the water division, it's our invincible water division in Jingzhou!" Hahaha! ”

His roar instantly spread through the somewhat quiet battlefield, and the fish-bellied defenders who had just risen their fighting spirit went from heaven to hell in an instant, completely occupied by panic and fear. And the Jingzhou soldiers who were demoralized just now and had no fighting spirit were indeed extremely excited, and suddenly burst out with a strong fighting spirit.

"It's Song Qian and Jia Hua, hahaha! God help me! The joy in Xu Sheng's heart is difficult to describe in words, but now is not the time to be happy, seeing that the destruction of the city is a sure thing, with a wave of the black-veined Xuantie gun in his hand, he is already shouting loudly at the top of his throat: "Kill!" Take down the belly of the fish, and all the staff will be rewarded. ”

The current situation shows that victory is in sight, and this sentence undoubtedly poured a basin of oil on the surging anger, and the Jingzhou soldiers were like eating Brother Nasa one by one, they were in high spirits and rushed to the fish-bellied guards like crazy.

There was no suspense in the next battle, and the main force of the 40,000 naval army attacked the exhausted enemy soldiers from behind, and there was no accident at all. Song Qian and Jia Hua deliberately let go of the middle road of Yubelly County and did not pursue them, which almost instantly caused the Yubelly defenders to collapse and flee for their lives.

Faced with this scene, Song Qian and Jia Hua just casually covered up for a few miles, and then retreated to the Fish Belly City.

"Hahahaha, General Xu! It was a night of fierce fighting, and it was really hard. Song Qian and Jia Hua walked into the county hall in high spirits, and saw Xu Sheng sitting above waiting for them, and the two of them had already stepped forward to salute.

Xu Sheng also swept away the feeling of decadence at this moment, and sighed: "It's really thanks to the two of you, otherwise the fish belly wouldn't have won it so quickly!" ”

Song Qian and Jia Hua looked at each other and smiled, but they didn't take credit, and took a step forward and said: "This time to take the belly of the fish, General Xu is the first merit, we just obeyed the lord's order to cooperate, and we have not made any achievements." ”

"Huh?" Xu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and looked at the two of them in a daze. "What the Lord ordered you?"

Jia Hua looked at Song Qian, smiled tacitly, and said: "Yes, the lord's order arrived yesterday evening, let me wait for the rapid rate of the water division to march west along the west, do not form flags, do not beat drums, do not light lamps, advance in the dark with improvised siege equipment, open the way with small boats, and be sure to launch an attack from behind the belly of the fish before the sun rises today, and cooperate with General Xu." The two of us didn't dare to slack off, so we rushed to join in the fun. An hour before dawn, when we spent time in the river of the fish belly, we saw the fierce battle of the fish belly! If it hadn't been for the discovery of a small number of sailors and a few light assault boats in the belly of the fish, it would have taken a little time to annihilate it. ”

As soon as Xu Sheng said this, Xu Sheng also quickly understood, and was amazed for a while, but shook his head with a wry smile: "The lord is really calculated, although the unsuspecting fish belly of the surprise attack can easily climb the city wall, but in the face of the enemy's superior conditions, even if it causes heavy casualties and damage to the other party's city defense, it is powerless to break the city." However, once you retreat, you will have to pay a lot of money to get to the city again. Normal way, such a few rounds of attacks, as long as you are willing to pay the price, you should be able to take it, anyway, it is impossible for the enemy army to have reinforcements in a short time. But in order to reduce losses and gain time, the lord asked me to make a killing move and bait at the same time. so that you can be smuggled in. And bloodlessly slaughtered from the west into the city of the belly of the fish. All of these schemes were interlinked from the very beginning, and it was truly impressive. ”

"Yes! The talent of the lord is unparalleled in the world, and I really can't guess it! However, General Xu is also really extraordinary, in the face of such danger, he has successfully entangled all night without retreating, otherwise it is impossible for us to rush into Xicheng easily, you know. There wasn't even a single garrison in Xicheng. With the severity of the fish's belly, if the opponent is on guard, I am afraid that the attack on both sides may not be able to break in a short time. ”

Song Qian and Jia Hua also sighed, and the three of them then chatted a few words, and Jia Hua saw that the sky was almost dark, so he gave his hand and said goodbye.

"Huh? Why is General Jia in such a hurry. Do you still have a task? Xu Shengqi said.

"Hmm!" Jia Hua nodded. "The lord's letter said that if the attack on Yubelly is successful this time, let me lead 20,000 sailors to Yuzhang to guard against changes in Jiangdong. Song Qian will lead the rest of the naval army to advance with you by land and water, and enter Shu together. ”

"Oh! I see, since the lord has an order, I will not keep you. ”

As he spoke, Xu Sheng got up to see him off. It wasn't until outside the door that he arched his hand: "Take care!" ”

"Take care!"

Bow hands to each other. Jia Hua was not verbose, and shook off his robe. It's already striding away. For them, who have been fighting all year round, this time has never been verbose, and some nonsense is useless. However, as soon as Jia Hua left, before Xu Sheng and Song Qian, who were watching him away, could turn around, a herald suddenly rushed over.

"General Xu, General Song." The visitor fell on one knee and saluted.

"What?" Xu Sheng frowned and asked.

"The three generals Wang Fei, Xu Huang, and Han Meng have just arrived outside the eastern city of Yubei with 30,000 horses, and I have ordered them to pass through Guò Yubei as soon as possible."

"Oh?" Xu Sheng was surprised, glanced at Song Qian, didn't dare to have any slackness, and immediately waved his hand: "Take me to the city to have a look." ”

This kind of thing can not be sloppy, in the war if there is another side of their own army to enter the city, must be confirmed by the commander-in-chief, even if the soldiers know that general, but as long as it is not a subordinate relationship in this war, it cannot be lightly put in, this is the most basic common sense of the army.

Xu Sheng and Song Qian, who hurriedly came to the city, quickly confirmed Xu Huang and his party, and immediately ordered the city gate to be opened.

"How did you get here so fast?" As soon as he saw the three people covered in battle armor, holding sharp blades, and majestic, Xu Sheng couldn't help but ask.

The three of them laughed a few times, and Wang Fei, who was in the lead, replied loudly: "Wen Xiang doesn't know, we have already assembled in batches to the south, just waiting for the sun to rise and set off today, all of which are expected by the lord and the military advisor." Forget it, it's not too early now, let's get together in Jiangzhou another day and talk about it in detail! We waited for the secret order of the lord, and we must take advantage of the lack of reaction in Shuzhong and fight all the way to Jiangzhou. Now that the belly of the fish has been broken, the rest have nothing to fear, which is a great opportunity. ”

Although Wang Fei said it very simply, it was enough for him to understand the general situation, and knowing that the matter was urgent, he didn't ask more. "Release!"

Wang Fei, Xu Huang, and Han Meng all had all the responsibilities with them, and of course it was impossible to delay too much, so they returned to the military formation outside the city one after another, and commanded the army to quickly pass through the belly. Xu Sheng has also been by the side of the three of them, and they are miles away. "Good luck! Take care! ”

"Take care!" With a heavy hand, Wang Fei and the three of them didn't say much, and embarked on the journey again with a grim face, for them, time was extremely precious.

Seeing the three of them go away, Xu Sheng couldn't calm down for a long time, this time in the west, Wang Xu's internal public goal was to only take Jiangzhou. Judging from the current layout, is taking Jiangzhou really the goal? It was impossible to capture Yizhou in one fell swoop, and Jingzhou's preparations were not sufficient. But this outpouring of action has the momentum to win Yizhou, lord, what do you want to do in this battle?

In fact, not only Xu Sheng, who calmed down, thought of this problem, but also Guo Jia and Tian Feng, who were accompanying Wang Xu, and they were all faintly aware that Wang Xu was probably not just as simple as taking Jiangzhou this time, and they inadvertently looked at Wang Xu's gaze, which was also full of confusion......
