Chapter 17: The Battle of Yiling (1)

Lu Xun stared and looked into the distance,

The mind is heavy, the face is heavy,

At this point,

Han Dang and other Eastern Wu generals knew that Lu Xun was on the city wall early in the morning, so they didn't dare to delay anything, and hurriedly climbed the city wall.

In order to facilitate the effective command of Yiling City, Lu Xun specially ordered the relocation of the Dadu Governor's Mansion to a courtyard not far from the city wall of the South Gate.

Now that Lu Xun has moved, Han Dang and other generals of Eastern Wu are not included, and they are all near Lu Xun.

So they are all clear about Lu Xun's dynamics.

However, although the relocation is convenient for command and more effective to improve morale, but it also buries a hidden danger, usually Yiling City is in their own hands, if Yiling City is broken by the Shu army, they are the generals of Eastern Wu, if they want to escape, I am afraid that it will be difficult.

"The Grand Duke!" Han Dang, as a veteran of Dongwu, spoke first.

Lu Xun didn't look back, he still looked into the distance, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

When all the people stand on the wall,

Long

"Generals, Yidao and various strongholds and Yaoting, Zigui two cities, all broken by the Shu army, my Wu State Yiling, as if it has become a lonely city, the battlefield situation for our Wu State, the situation is not optimistic!"

Lu Xun's face was solemn, and then he let out a long sigh, sighing, full of helplessness.

"The governor of the capital doesn't have to worry, my Wu country has half a year's worth of grain and grass to maintain, but Liu Bei's Shu army is just the opposite, there is a shortage of grain and grass, only enough for half a month's army, as long as we hold on to half a month, the Shu army will naturally retreat, and the siege of my Yiling can be solved."

Han Dang was full of confidence and smiled disapprovingly, after all, the weight of grain and grass is related to morale, if it is in short supply, the soldiers are hungry, they will mutiniate and chaos themselves, and they don't need to attack the enemy at all, they will be in chaos themselves, and what kind of war will they fight.

"General Han Dang, do you also know that the Shu army still has half a month's worth of grain and grass?" Lu Xun turned his head and looked at Han Dang, his eyes were full of coldness.

Han Dang's tiger eyes flashed with a hint of horror, and then he shook his head, "Impossible, my Yiling City has thick walls, except for the flat terrain of the south gate, surrounded by big rivers and steep cliffs, plus the soldiers in my Yiling City, all of them are the elite of my Wu Kingdom, not to mention that the Shu army currently only has 50,000 horses to attack the city, that is, 100,000 horses, if you want to capture Yiling, it is nothing more than hitting stones with eggs, and you can't measure your strength." ”

"General Han Dang, you are too arbitrary, the battlefield situation is unpredictable, until the other party surrenders, no one can guarantee who can always occupy an absolute advantage, so as to win the final victory!"

Lu Xun showed a trace of disappointment on his face, obviously very dissatisfied with Han Dang's answer.

"So, Metropolitan Governor, how should we deal with the Shu army?" Zhuge Jin thought for a moment and asked.

"Pass my military order, order the defenders of the city gates, be vigilant against all movements around, find any abnormal situation, immediately prepare for war and defense, and there must be no slackness, if anyone neglects their duties, I will not forgive, and they will all be dealt with according to military law and sentenced to death!" Lu Xun's eyes flashed with a cold cold light, and he ordered in a deep voice to the generals.

"No, Grand Duke!"

Han Dang and other Eastern Wu generals looked solemn, and bowed to Lu Xun.

"Shu Army..."

"The Shu army is here!"

On the city wall, some sharp-eyed Dongwu soldiers saw the dust in front of them and the military flags standing in a forest, their frightened faces changed greatly, and they shouted in horror.

Lu Xun's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and then he turned around and looked out of the city.

War horses galloping, soldiers and soldiers.

Dense, like that huge pitch-black monster, rushing towards Yiling City with a fierce momentum,

When he saw the banner of the Chinese army, Lu Xun whispered, "Liu Bei, you still came in person!" ”

"Metropolitan Governor, since Liu Bei is here, he must have brought all his main troops out to attack the city." Han Dang pointed to the Shu army outside the city and said in surprise.

"It's good to come, if you don't come, that's called weird!" Lu Xun sneered a few times.

…………

Outside the city of Yiling.

"Whew!"

In the middle of the Shu army, there was a loud and dull horn sound, flickering far and near, as if it was not from the abyss.

It's suffocating.

Followed by

"Kill!"

Shouting to kill the heavens,

Three thousand soldiers of the Shu army carried spears, rushed out of the army, and attacked Yiling City.

On one side, a big "Li" character is written, indicating the identity of this army,

That's right, this army is the 3,000 Wu army that surrendered to the Shu army during Li Jun's battle with Xu Sheng last night, and now, it has been incorporated into the Shu army by Li Jun and has become a new army under Li Jun's command.

Originally, this new army was not qualified to attack the city, but it was sent out by Li Jun.

As for why, Li Jun wanted to see the true strength of this new army in this siege battle?

If it can survive the cruel and ruthless siege battle, then this new army can really be accepted by Li Jun, and it can be regarded as passing Li Jun's test, and vice versa.

This new army, after all, was formerly from Eastern Wu, and now it belongs to the Shu army, and the identity has changed, and there are some worries in my heart, and the siege of the city is not as good as the Shu army.

This is the most deadly, the Wu army defending the city, but regardless of your previous identity, and since you chose to throw yourself into the enemy camp, it is the enemy, the defending Wu army, mercilessly shot arrows at the new army under the city wall,

Six thousand arrows were fired in unison, overwhelming,

All of a sudden,

The whole sky seemed to be shrouded in a dark cloud, and the sky was dark and full of murderous intentions.

"Ahh

"Ahh

The 100 soldiers of the Xinshu Army who rushed to the front were pierced through the heart by the cluster of arrows that flew over, making a miserable and incomparably painful sound, accompanied by countless splashes of blood, which looked weird and terrifying.

A veteran standing at the very edge of the city wall, holding a bow and arrow in his hand, bowed his head deeply, opened his eyes wide, and observed the movements of the besieging army below left and right.

He is none other than Xu Sheng,

Xu Sheng was let go by Liu Bei and fled back to Yiling City, although Lu Xun did not have any suspicions at the time. However, Xu Sheng is a person who is good at observing words and feelings, and from Lu Xun's eyes, it can be seen that Lu Xun has developed a trace of suspicion against him.

In order to dispel Lu Xun's concerns and let Lu Xun regain his trust in him, Xu Sheng decided to search for important generals of the Shu army when the Shu army attacked the city today, and then shoot them with cold arrows after confirming the target.

The first person Xu Sheng wanted to shoot was Li Jun in the Shu army.

He is a veteran of Eastern Wu, and he has never been so humiliated by fighting with countless opponents, but last night, he actually lost to a junior Li Jun, which made Xu Sheng, how can he swallow this evil breath.

Therefore, Xu Sheng can only save a little bit of his remaining dignity by shooting Li Jun to death.

Although, secretly releasing cold arrows, this method is not kind, and it is even more despicable, right now, Xu Sheng doesn't care about it for the sake of face.

It's just that

Xu Sheng searched for a long time, but he didn't find Li Jun's figure.

Where did this man go?
