Chapter Seventy-One: Ling Cao's Son
After a while, I saw Ling Cao being pressed up by the five flowers. Liu Xun immediately feigned anger and said: "Bastard, who tied General Ling like this, don't hurry up and loosen General Ling's ties." β
The attendants on the left and right were stunned for a moment, and hurriedly stepped forward and quickly loosened the rope for Ling Cao.
Under the protection of Gan Ning, Liu Xun showed a hypocritical smile, and enthusiastically stepped forward to take Ling Cao's hand, looking like a good dragon and yang.
"You, you, why are you looking at me like this!" After Ling Cao looked at Liu Xun's expression, he subconsciously wanted to shake off Liu Xun's hand.
It's a pity that I can't get rid of it......
What's going on with this passionate atmosphere?
"Don't get excited, general, I didn't do anything!" Liu Xun was shocked, and then said with some puzzlement, but the hand he was holding never let go.
Ling Cao had never seen any strong winds and waves, even if he was asked to die immediately, he would not frown. He felt that there was no one in the world and nothing to fear him. But at this moment, looking at the look in Liu Xun's eyes, he was a little weak, and he was scared at this moment.
In a panic, Ling Cao shouted, "Stay away from me, don't touch me." β
Liu Xun was stunned for a moment and didn't react, and said in his heart: "Ben Taishou didn't do anything to you, could it be that my hand strength is too strong, wouldn't it, a military general is so afraid of pain?" β
Liu Xun hurriedly let go of his hand and said very gently: "General, don't be excited, can't you if I don't move?"
Ling Cao snorted coldly and took a step back, as if Liu Xun was a flood beast.
"By the way, let me ask the general something, do you have a baby son named Ling Tong? Where is it at the moment? β
Ling Cao was suddenly shocked and said angrily: "What do you want to do? Even if I die, I won't let it happen. β
Liu Xun couldn't help but be depressed and said: "General, don't be excited, Ben Taishou just heard that he is very martial and brave, and he wants to take him under his account and cultivate him well." β
Ling Cao tied the knot and said very incomprehensibly, "Really... It's true? β
Liu Xun couldn't help but scolded with some indignation: "Nonsense, Ben Taishou needs to lie with one of your defeated generals? What a joke. β
Although Ling Cao was so choreographed by Liu Xun, he was not angry because of this, but he was relieved in his heart. "Although I Ling Cao is the general of the defeated army today, you don't have to threaten me with my son, even if I die, I can't be loyal to you. What's more, if this matter is spread out, it will not be a good thing for youγγγγγγ β
Seeing that Ling Cao was so hard-boned, Liu Xun could only say lightly in desperation: "Hmph, how to do this Taishou doesn't need you to point fingers at the future of a defeated army." β
Immediately, Liu Xun instructed left and right: "Someone come, loosen the ties for General Ling, and take him down to serve him with good food and drink." β
Liu Xunxin said, "If you don't dare to yell at me like this in front of Ling Tong, you must be cut down." β
After seeing Ling Cao, Liu Xun had already figured out how to trick Ling Tong. After all, his father was captured after defeat, and I believe that it won't be long before Jiangdong will be known to everyone. If someone is sent to find him, Ling Tong's personality will definitely come. If he really doesn't come, Liu Xun doesn't care.
A person who can even ignore his own father is a white-eyed wolf even if he is trained to become a talent, and it doesn't mean much to himself. After all, no one dared to stand up and rebel when he was in power, and the main reason for accepting Ling Tong was for the sake of his children and grandchildren.
And in this era, can't the powerful and powerful self cultivate some people who are better than Ling Tong? It's just that Ling Tong's foundation is good and easier to cultivate, so he can spend less energy, and that's it.
After dealing with these things, Liu Xun still has more important things to do, that is, to take Moling City. Although LΓΌ Meng and his main force have been destroyed, there are still Jiangdong remnants in the city to defend the city. In order to reduce unnecessary casualties, Liu Xun did not choose to attack the city as soon as possible. Instead, he released the news that LΓΌ Meng was defeated and captured by himself. Let the defenders of the city lose all confidence, and then they can fight down. In fact, Liu Xun sent a large army before he began to attack the city, and the people who originally assisted on the city tower were afraid that Liu Xun would be held accountable and ran out early in the morning.
Moling City is more than seven feet high, and the previous bloody attack and defense of many consecutive battles have already made the city wall mottled with blood, and many stumps that have not been cleaned up are shocking.
In this era, there was an unwritten rule that after the besieging side stopped the siege, it would send Minfu to collect the corpses, and the defenders would not take the initiative to attack Minfu at this time. After all, the offensive and defensive battles will last for a long time, and once the corpses are allowed to rot, it will inevitably cause a plague to spread, and it will have disastrous consequences for both the offensive and defensive sides.
Facing the dense Lujiang army outside the city, as well as the deafening shouts of killing, and the sound of iron hooves that made the houses tremble, a person was panicked and restless. The people in Moling City have never seen such a big battle. If it weren't for the fact that there was still Lu Meng's army pressing them before, they would have run out a long time ago, and they wouldn't have waited until now.
Even the scholars in the city thought that Sun Quan was likely to be defeated by Liu Xun, so they gave up Moling, even if they did not give up voluntarily, they were blocked by Liu Xun's army in the territory of Huiji, in short, there were no reinforcements in Moling in a short period of time. Facing the army of tens of thousands of tigers and wolves, it was only a matter of time before Moling was breached.
It was precisely because of this kind of thinking that many scholars in Moling also refused to help Chen Wu defend the city, so as not to anger the Lujiang army besieging the city. If you climb the city wall to assist the Jiangdong army in defense, it will provoke the Lujiang army to carry out a retaliatory massacre after breaking the city. That would be a catastrophe for the scholars of Moling.
After losing the support of the people of Moling and the scholars, the morale of the Jiangdong army defending the city dropped sharply. This can't help but make Chen Wu worried.
Due to the wrong strategy of taking the initiative to meet the enemy, LΓΌ Meng led 2,000 men and horses to attack the Lujiang army camp and was in LΓΌ Meng. Pan Zhang. Ling Cao's three fierce generals were still defeated when they came out, and the soldiers and horses brought out were almost wiped out. There were less than a hundred people who ran back, and there were less than a thousand people left in the city at this moment.
In desperation, Chen Wu could only change his strategy and defend the city with all his might.
However, in the face of the powerful offensive of the Lujiang Army, the invincible Lujiang Army won successive battles, and its morale was like a rainbow. Chen Wu was very desperate about this.
Before that, LΓΌ Meng asked his guards to bring thirty horsemen to break through to Huiji for help. It's just that after all this time, I still can't see any reinforcements. At this moment, Moling is now completely isolated from the outside world, and no news has been received at all, and only migratory birds returning to the north can be seen flying overhead.
After Liu Xun besieged the city, he launched three tentative attacks in succession. They were all stubbornly repelled by Chen Wu's troops, allowing the Lujiang army to fill in more than dozens of lives under Moling City.
