Cold ice can't break the water, and dead wood can meet spring again.

"Now that we know all the mechanisms in Yiling Pass, let's attack immediately, as long as we can avoid the water of the Alluring City?" Cui Li's thinking is still a little simple, when the time comes, the overwhelming splash will make people unable to distinguish the direction, and the soldiers of the Shu army will be wiped out. So now we need an answer. An answer that can unravel this 'odd array'.

"Cheng Yin, what are you still hesitating about? Let's hurry up and launch a general attack, shall we? This time, I had to catch the 'mystery man' with my own hands and see who he was. Cui Li couldn't wait to remove the veil of the "mysterious man", all the information was already there, but he didn't know how to unravel these mechanisms yet. Now it seems that the battle plan formulated by Cui Li and Professor Wu before has lost its effect, and it is not easy for them to open up a new path by themselves, but who knows that Fang Shuran and Li Huayi were seriously injured at this time. Although Wang Ningmo's addition has added another strength to us, the enemy general Gan Ning has also arrived, and the generals of other parties are also coming here. We don't have enough time, and if our army can't break into Yiling Pass before the enemy arrives, then we will lose our last chance, and my heart will be depressed and speechless.

"Yiling Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, coupled with the four major organs to block, the defenders in the city are on a par with our army, and even the Eastern Wu general Gan Ning has arrived, so it seems that the situation is really becoming more and more unfavorable for us." Professor Wu lost hope in his eyes.

"What, it was not easy for us to think of the last organ in Yiling Pass, but now there is no way at all, no matter what the result is, at least let's fight with all our might!" Zhao Yuyu didn't want to give up, as a chess player, she would never admit defeat when she still had a son to play.

"But how can we defeat the enemy's heavy organs, and then defeat the tens of thousands of troops led by Gan Ning, the general of Eastern Wu?" Li Ruina named an almost impossible task.

"Maybe there's a way, but we haven't thought of it yet. Cheng Yin, don't you say? "Cui Li desperately needs me to give a definite answer.

"Cheng Yin, why don't you speak. At that time, it was not like this in the Lost Garden, but didn't we give up until the end? What's going on now? Isn't it just a few organs that look a little powerful? Just scared you like this? Cui Li's words were like a slap in the face.

"Cui Li, I understand your current mood, but the facts are in front of us, and if you attack rashly without a plan, you can only be defeated in the end." Professor Wu said.

"What's wrong? One by one, they look sad, but now they know how weak they are, and they hate their incompetent self, right? At the end of the day, you can't change anything, just look at how great you all thought you were before. Okay, now you know, you can't change anything, you can't change anything, you hate you for being too laid-back, too weak. "The 'mystery man' deliberately suppresses our last hope when we are at our lowest.

"Give up, that's the best option for you, ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! "The laughter of the 'mystery man' echoed in the sky.

"Cheng Yin, what should we do?"

To be honest, since entering the "Strange Array", what I have heard the most is this sentence "Cheng Yin, what should we do?" Suddenly, it felt like Liu Bei always liked to ask Zhuge Liang, "For it, what can I do?" "But I'm not a genius Zhuge Kongming, nor do I have a talent of heaven and earth, and the problems I am facing now are really a headache. What to do? What to do? What to do? …… I've asked myself the same question countless times, but this time I really couldn't solve it. I've always thought that there will be an answer to any question, but I was wrong, really wrong, and not all questions will have an answer. Sometimes I can feel that feeling of helplessness in my heart – endless, overwhelming, and I suddenly realize how weak I am.

Everyone didn't say anything more, and there was a hint of helplessness on everyone's face, what could they do if they solved the puzzle? Nothing more than one new puzzle after another awaits us.

I looked at the sky, and it turned out that I was so weak, and everything was so small compared to the vast universe. Time goes by, the stars change, when the mottled time rings the cycle of time and space again, will I still choose to change my destiny as I did at that time? I felt like I was hesitating, I was terrified, I wondered if my choice would be the way I thought, and if what I had been insisting on was really the right thing?

"Report !! Report!!! A soldier hurried towards us, "General, there is urgent military service coming ahead. ”

Urgent military affairs? What could be more urgent than where we are now?

"Tell me, what's the urgent military business?" I asked.

"General, the front probe Malay report, the enemy army has been assembled, Zhu Ran, Pan Zhang, Han Dang, Xu Sheng, Sun Heng ordered 50,000 troops to march urgently to our Yiling Pass, and it is expected that we can reach Yiling Pass tomorrow evening." As soon as the soldier finished speaking, we were all shocked. I didn't expect this exam to take a shorter time than we thought.

Will you be able to reach Yiling Pass tomorrow night? So fast? It seems that even if you count today, there will only be two days at most, which is good. We haven't made even a little progress so far.

"What! What did you say! Cui Li shouted.

"The enemy's army has been assembled, and the generals from all walks of life have ordered a total of 50,000 troops, and they will be able to reach Yiling Pass tomorrow night." Again, the soldier repeated clearly.

Jingzhou, it is generally believed that during the Eastern Han Dynasty, Jingzhou originally had seven counties: Nanyang County, Nan County, Jiangxia County, Lingling County, Guiyang County, Wuling County, Changsha County, after the Battle of Chibi, the seven counties of Jingzhou were divided by Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Sun Quan, Cao Cao occupied the largest Nanyang County in the north of Jingzhou, Sun Quan got Jiangxia County and Nan County, and Liu Bei got four counties in the south of Jingzhou (Changsha, Lingling, Guiyang, and Wuling). Liu Bei's military security was not conducive to development, so he proposed to Sun Quan twice to borrow the southern county of Jingzhou, and Eastern Wu Lusu persuaded Sun Quan to temporarily lend the southern county to Liu Bei, so Liu Bei had five counties of Jingzhou (Nanjun, Changsha, Lingling, Guiyang, and Wuling).
