Chapter 96 Under Xiangyang City, the two tigers compete for food
Hearing this, Mrs. Mi was worried, and Liu Mang's eyes were secretly happy.
"Don't worry, ma'am!"
Zhuge Liang chuckled and said: "Xiangyang City is profound, Cao Jun will not come easily!" ”
"Tell the lord that our army does not have to fight."
Xu Shu smiled: "Cao Cao is suspicious by nature, if we blindly resist, he will choose to storm Xiangyang." ”
"I gave up a lot of strongholds before, in order to show the sincerity of my son, but he will be full of doubts."
Although Mrs. Mi didn't understand the reason, she was willing to believe the judgment of Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu.
As the two said, Liu Beijun's sincerity made Cao Cao suspicious.
I was afraid that there would be some ambush in Xiangyang City, so I chose not to do it for the time being.
The army was stationed in Deng County, eyeing the city at any time.
Now there are only 3,000 defenders in Xiangyang City, and most of the people's baggage has been sent to Lingling.
If it weren't for Mrs. Mi's concern for Liu Mang, she would have followed the families of other officials to take refuge.
"Mother, what are you still doing here? Didn't you let Aunt Gan and you take refuge in Lingling County a long time ago? ”
Liu Mang's voice was a little impatient, and Mrs. Mi stepped forward and knocked on her son's forehead.
"You care about being a mother, how can I let you go?"
Mrs. Mi hugged Liu Mang and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you get married yet, and I am reluctant to die for my mother!" There are two military divisions in Xiangyang, and we will definitely be able to evacuate safely. ”
Liu Mang stayed in Xiangyang, so that most of the officers felt at ease, and they didn't even leave their own son-in-law, they were afraid of a fart?
No one knew that Liu Mang was bent on death.
Cao Junbing is coming to the city?
And such a good thing?
Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu also highly praised Liu Mang's unflattering performance.
"Don't worry, Childe, we will be able to leave Xiangyang safely."
"Sir, I can die, but you must keep my mother safe!"
Liu Mang took a deep breath and went straight to the room.
Lu Qiling was startled and exclaimed, "Why didn't you knock on the door?" ”
Liu Mang said bluntly: "You still owe me one thing before!" Now it's up to you to make good on your promise to come to my mother and protect her! ”
Lu Qiling smiled and said: "I'm a member of Tongque, aren't you afraid that I will arrest Liu Bei's wife and ask Cao Jun for credit?" ”
Liu Mang was a little angry for the first time, "If you dare to do this, I will definitely make your life worse than death!" ”
"Alright, alright! I didn't expect you to be so ruthless to Liu Bei, but you are filial to your mother. ”
Lu Qiling chuckled: "Liu Mang, I will fulfill my promise and protect your mother even if I die!" ”
You don't have to die......
Before Liu Mang could say this, Lu Qiling had already left first.
"Finally a decent request! I know all about the means of the bronze sparrow! ”
……
Deng County.
Cao's army captured several strongholds one after another, and the army was encircling Xiangyang.
The first troops are the tiger and leopard cavalry led by Cao Chun, and the places that can be occupied have common characteristics.
No people, no baggage!
Except for a vacant lot, it is useless!
When Cao Cao heard this, he couldn't help but have a big head.
He personally led a large army to come, and he was ready to fight for war.
Who knew that Liu Bei didn't give him a chance, people left a voice, geese plucked their feathers, and forcibly stretched the battle line of Cao Jun.
As a result, Cao Cao could only let a part of the troops come first, and the army guarded Xinye to prevent the grain and grass from being cut off.
"Prime Minister! If you don't attack the city now, when will you wait? ”
Cheng Yu said anxiously: "I see that the defenders of Xiangyang are only 5,000, and the morale of our army is high, and it is easy to capture this place!" ”
"Then Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu drinks on the city tower every day, but it's just a bluff!"
Xun Yuxun's uncle and nephew couldn't make up their minds, so they didn't choose to speak.
Jia Xu is an old fox, as long as Cao Cao doesn't take the initiative to ask, he directly chooses to play dead.
"Cheng Zhongde! You must have forgotten to burn the new wild! ”
Cao Ren was dissatisfied: "We also went directly into the city that day, what was the result? The soldiers were lost, and even Zilian died! ”
Xiahoudun, who was also a victim, nodded in support.
"Not bad! Zhuge Villager is the best at fire attack, we can't wait for it! ”
Cheng Yu was anxious, the general of the Cao clan spoke, and the generals with foreign surnames such as Zhang Liao, Xu Huang and others, although they wanted to attack, they had to choose to shut up.
"Zhongde, don't panic!"
Cao Cao smiled: "Liu Bei is my stubborn disease!" And you are the cure for the stubborn disease! ”
"When the rear army comes, it will be difficult for Liu Bei to fly!"
"Then Liu Bei is cowardly and timid, if it weren't for Zhuge Liang's design, how would he dare to drink in front of me?"
Cheng Yu couldn't persuade him, so he could only regret and shut up.
After another two days, Cao Cao finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Just because there were already troops leaving Xiangyang City one after another, worried that it was a trick to lure the enemy, Cao Cao's suspicious nature was exposed, and he missed the opportunity to chase and kill again.
Who let Liu Bei still drink on the castle tower?
As long as Liu Bei, the bastard, doesn't leave, he Cao Cao will definitely stay here!
"Strategist! The family has all left. ”
Liu Bei saw that there were more and more Cao Jun, and said in his heart that he was not afraid, it was a complete lie.
"When am I going to evacuate?"
"As the military advisor said, if there are no reinforcements to stop Cao Cao, I'm afraid the other party will soon be able to catch up with us!"
Liu Bei said worriedly: "Especially the tiger and leopard under Cao Cao's command, it is not a problem to travel hundreds of miles a day!" ”
Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu treated them indifferently, and Liu Mang on the side was in good spirits.
The three thousand defenders of Xiangyang will definitely not be able to hold it, and he can finally die where he deserves.
"Lord, Liang is not afraid of Cao Cao's siege, but is worried that he will not come."
"What Kong Ming said is very true, if Cao Cao doesn't come, I'll wait until I am in a hurry."
Before the two of them finished speaking, they saw Zhao Yun come to report.
"My lord! Strategist! Cao's army is ready to attack the city! The vanguard was none other than Xiahoudun and Cao Ren! ”
"Huh! These two? Don't be afraid! ”
Zhuge Liang smiled: "Open the city gate!" ”
Liu Bei and others led the army out of the city, and Liu Mang also rode a horse to follow.
"Childe, if there is a fierce battle for a while, you must not stay too far away from me."
Zhao Yun advised: "Shizai, Huangshan, and you remember to protect the son!" ”
Be!
The two clenched their fists and took their lives.
Liu Mang nodded slowly, he was bent on death, Deng Ai and Huang Shan couldn't stop him!
Xiahoudun took the lead and hurried to meet the battle.
Cao Ren advised him to be cautious, but who knew that Zhao Yun slapped his horse and listened to the gun, and scolded him directly!
"One-eyed dragon! Does Bowangpo make you scared? Come here today, there is one more ghost under the gentian gun! ”
"Zhao Yun! Hugh is going to be rampant! Today I will kill you! ”
Xiahoudun was furious, and the two fought together.
With his brute courage and the will to avenge Cao Hong, Xiahoudun suddenly gained the upper hand.
Zhao Yun methodically saw the moves, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.
"Strategist! Cao Ren led the army to kill! This is Cao Cao's elite Qingzhou soldiers! ”
Liu Bei was in a hurry, but saw Zhuge Liang's feather fan pointing to the rear!
"Your lord need not be worried! Liang makes them the strongest against the strongest, and the two tigers compete for food! ”
Not far away, the Sun family flag was waving, and the person who came was the Jiangdong veteran Cheng Pu!
"Lujiang Shangjia, come to receive Jingzhou!"
Cheng Pu was holding an iron spine snake spear, old and strong, and stood in front of Cao Ren.
"Dare to stop my Qingzhou soldiers? Death to the old fellow! ”
There is no nonsense on both sides, and the big war is about to break out!
