Chapter 315: Collapsed Military Heart

Xiangyang, the state pastoral house. , the latest chapter access: ШШШ.79xs.БоМ .

In the backyard, Huang Yueying is making a bow and crossbow.

Compared with the big yellow crossbow made before, the bow and crossbow made by Huang Yueying now are even smaller.

The big yellow crossbow needs to be pulled apart by one person and loaded with crossbow arrows by one person, which is a sharp weapon on the battlefield, but it is inconvenient to move and lacks flexibility. The small crossbow made now can be used by ordinary soldiers in the army, and can be equipped on soldiers in batches.

Liu Xiu's plan was to equip the Flying Tiger Battalion under Huang Hu's command first.

A thousand soldiers of the Flying Tiger Battalion are equipped with hand crossbows, and on the battlefield, they may be able to have unexpected effects.

Huang Yueying took the hand crossbow in her hand, took the target to try it, shook her head and said: "Husband, the 'fine' accuracy of the hand crossbow is still a little rough, and the power of the 'shooting' attack is not enough, I will change it again." ”

Liu Xiu said: "Yueying, don't worry, take your time." "Liu Xiu knew that what he persuaded him to persuade must be in the left ear and out of the right ear, once Huang Yueying indulges in it, she must do a good job.

"Step, step!"

There was a sound of footsteps coming from outside the courtyard.

Deng Ai hurriedly walked in and said with a smile: "Childe, General Deng asked to see him, saying that he had something important to report." ”

"I'll go to the study right away!"

Liu Xiu said a word to Huang Yueying, and then went to the study.

The guest and host sat down, Liu Xiu looked at Deng Zhan, and his eyes showed a look of expectation.

Deng Zhan looked excited, and couldn't wait to say: "Childe, Nanyang County has sent back news that the army under Zhang Ren has swept through all counties in Nanyang County, and it is now in Xinye. Zhuge Liang led the crowd to resist, and the situation was in a stalemate. ”

Liu Xiu laughed and said, "Okay, I've finally come to this point." ”

Deng Zhan said: "Lord, Master Pang's plan is successful, and there will be no more suspense in this battle." In this battle, Liu Bei will be defeated. ”

Liu Xiu stood up and ordered, "Immediately spread this news all over Xiangyang City and let the people know." Previously, Liu Bei spread the news of the crisis in Changsha County, which made the hearts of Xiangyang people fluctuate. Although the people's voices were silenced, some people were still worried. The news of Xinye will be a huge blow to Liu Bei, and it will also boost the morale of the people of Xiangyang. ”

Deng Zhandao: "My lord, in terms of Changsha County, although Ancheng County and Chaling County have been lost, General Huang is in charge of the overall situation and has not been defeated, and the situation has not deteriorated. ”

Liu Xiu said: "Well, the situation in Changsha County is fine, don't worry." Okay, you go and get the word out right now. ”

"Yes!"

When Deng Zhan left the Prefecture Governor's Mansion, he sent people to start spreading the news.

In the west of the city, in a wine shop.

A drinker was holding a drink, and across from him sat a burly-looking middle-aged man. The drinker took a sip of wine and immediately said loudly: "In other words, Liu Bei's attack on Xiangyang this time was a complete failure. ”

The burly middle-aged man had a puzzled expression on his face, and said: "Liu Bei has surrounded Xiangyang City, and Lord Zhou Mu has always been unable to defend it, so he clearly looks like he is afraid of Liu Bei, how can it be regarded as a failure?"

The drinker raised his chin and said, "You don't know this, tell you, there is a reason why Liu Jingzhou does not fight." ”

The conversation between the two aroused the curiosity of the people around them.

"This brother, I don't know what the reason for Liu Jingzhou not to fight?"

A thin, handsome middle-aged man asked.

The drinker smiled and swept his gaze, and the people around him also turned their gazes, apparently very interested in the topic he had thrown out.

The drinker flicked his sleeves, stood up, and said loudly: "Anyway, this time the 'engagement' battle, the strategy that Liu Jingzhou began to adopt was the strategy of 'drawing' salaries at the bottom of the kettle. ”

"From the beginning of the 'engagement' war, Liu Jingzhou sent Pang Tong to Yizhou to persuade Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang to send troops. ”

"Now, Zhang Ren, the general under Liu Zhang, led an army of 10,000 into Nanyang County, and took Zhuyang County, Yu County, 'Yin' County and other places. ”

The drinker looked relaxed, and said loudly: "Liu Bei's lair has fallen, you say, Liu Bei is not a grasshopper after the autumn." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar.

One by one, their expressions were surprised, and they had an unbelievable expression.

Liu Bei's nest, Nanyang County, was taken away, which is really amazing.

"Hurry up, hurry up, a notice has been issued at the 'gate' of the city, saying that Nanyang County, Liu Bei's rear, has been breached. We're going to win in Xiangyang, this is great news, let's go. ”

At the 'door' of the wine shop, a middle-aged man's voice was heard.

After hearing this, the people suddenly became ecstatic in their hearts, if they said the words of the drinkers, they had a trace of doubt in their hearts, and now the government issued a notice, which was immediately confirmed.

One by one, the people threw down the money for the wine and went to the city gate.

The news of Nanyang County's ruin was spread in Xiangyang City in a very short time.

As soon as the news came out, the people were greatly encouraged.

At the same time, the news also quickly spread out of Xiangyang City and reached Liu Bei's command.

Liu Beilian was defeated in successive battles, and finally because Zhou Yu conquered Changsha County, he was able to reverse his morale a little. But the news spread all over the army, and all the soldiers had sad faces and depressed expressions.

Guan Yu was patrolling in the army and learned the news as soon as possible.

When he got the news, Guan Yu was extremely shocked.

Guan Yu hurriedly returned to the big tent, found Liu Bei, told the news passed in the military camp, and then said: "Big brother, in order to reverse the situation, Liu Xiu has been frantic to spread rumors to disturb the army's heart. Big brother, the news must be thoroughly investigated immediately, and even the news must be suppressed, otherwise the army will be moved and even mutiny. ”

Liu Bei's expression was extremely solemn, he took a letter and handed it to Guan Yu, and said, "Second brother, this is the news that the military advisor just sent someone. The news of Nanyang County is true. ”

In Guan Yu's heart, he suddenly had a bad premonition.

Could it be that Nanyang County is really lost?

Guan Yu's hands trembled a little, he took the letter in Liu Bei's hand, opened it and looked at it. The handwriting on the letter is indeed Zhuge Liang's, and the content written on it is also the news that the Yizhou Army has surrounded Xinye County.

Suddenly, Guan Yu was stunned.

It's really fallen!

Nanyang County has really fallen.

Guan Yu's heart was cold, he looked at Liu Bei, trembling for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Big brother, what should we do now? Xinye is besieged, which means that it is impossible to transport grain from Xinye. Although there is still more than a month of food in the army, the news of Xinye has spread all over the sky, and I am afraid that the soldiers will not be able to hold on at all. ”

Liu Bei was crying on his cheeks, the current situation was too bad.

Originally, the news of Changsha County saved morale, but now the news spread by Liu Xiu has destroyed the confidence of the soldiers.

Xinye is surrounded, what else can you resist?

Liu Bei's eyes became more solemn than ever, and he said in a deep voice: "Second brother, we must deal with it immediately." Otherwise, the battle will be lost. Once the soldiers in the barracks mutinied, the situation was even more out of control. ”

Guan Yu said: "For a while, I couldn't think of a solution. ”

Liu Bei's eyes flashed with 'fine' light, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Since there is no other way, then I can only take the strategy of a strong man to break his wrist and take the initiative to cut off his own strength." ”

Liu Bei is worthy of being Liu Bei, a veteran in the army, and suddenly thought of a solution.

Guan Yu asked, "How does the eldest brother plan to break the wrist of a strong man?"

Liu Bei replied: "Time is pressing, so I won't go into detail with you." Now, more than 10,000 of your generals have been gathered, and I will speak to all of them. ”

"Yes!"

Guan Yu didn't ask, turned around and went down to carry out the order.

"Knock! knock!"

After the war drums beat and the three drums were beaten, more than 10,000 soldiers in the army gathered in the barracks. It's just that the soldiers in the army have worried faces and panicked expressions.

They followed Liu Bei, but now Liu Bei has lost even Xinye, which makes it difficult for the soldiers in the army to continue to follow Liu Bei, after all, Liu Bei is showing signs of decline.

There was an uproar.

Countless soldiers 'exchanged heads' and talked about each other.

Guan Yu stood at the front of the military formation, he listened to the constant buzzing behind him, and his heart was irritable. Although the three Liu Bei brothers have not risen for decades, they have not fallen into the predicament they are in today.

Could it be that Liu Xiu is really the nemesis of their three brothers?

Guan Yu's heart breeds feelings of loss.

Suddenly, Guan Yu's eyes fell on Liu Bei's body, and he saw Liu Bei wearing armor and an iron helmet, striding with his head held high. As soon as Liu Bei appeared, the voice of discussion quieted down suddenly. Everyone's eyes fell on Liu Bei, looking forward to what Liu Bei would do?
