In Gangneung City, groups of deserters walked briskly through the streets, and when they saw this scene, the people were full of fear and hid in their homes.

Hearing the chaos outside, Huang Yueying was worried, and at this time, the door was pushed open, and the maid who had gone out to inquire about the news before staggered into the house.

Seeing the maid's panicked expression, Huang Yueying's heart sank straight down, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Yue'e, what's going on outside?" Could it be my uncle..."

Huang Yueying didn't dare to say any more, and stared at the maid with a pair of beautiful eyes.

"Not really, but it's bad news... Xiangyang's garrison general Wen Ping, Hanshui Captain Cai Mao and my Jiangling Taishou Huo Jun's three-way army were all defeated by Liu Bei, and now Liu Bei's army has converged into one place, and it is said that they are preparing to march to Xiangyang! ”

"What? Lost them all? Huang Yueying asked in surprise.

"Well, now that the whole city of Jiangling City is under martial law, people are panicking, for fear that Liu Bei will come over!"

"Hey, it seems that my Jingzhou soldiers are really vulnerable, the stability in this troubled world is really like the pavilion in the water, a small stone can make ripples..."Huang Yueying sighed.

"Miss, where are you talking about that? My uncle's side is said to be extremely prosperous, but aren't the troops trained extremely strong? Mr. Storyteller often mentions that Xu Shu's 50,000 soldiers blocked Cao Cao's 200,000 army, and his aunt and Master Zhang's mother broke into Luoyang alone, etc.! The maid said proudly.

"Can Brother Si'an be compared to Liu Jingzhou and others?"

"Yes, yes, our uncle is the best!"

The master and servant just smiled, but thinking that He Si'an was still uncertain about life and death at this moment, the corners of his mouth gradually flattened, turning into a worried look!

In the city guard mansion, Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan looked at Huo Jun opposite and asked about the situation with an anxious face.

"Master Huo, how is the situation outside now?"

"Hey, maybe it's the peace of these years that has caused the army's combat strength to be much worse than before, it was originally able to hold on the day before yesterday, but last night it was suddenly attacked by a night, not only on our side, but even Wen Ping, Cai Mao and the other two armies were also defeated, and at present, Liu Bei's army is gathering, and my side also needs to prepare!"

"Is there any news of King Hongnong?" Huang Chengyan still couldn't help but ask what he was most concerned about.

"Hmm... Mr. Chengyan rest assured, it is said that King Hongnong has arrived in Xiangyang, although we are defeated, but Xiangyang City has thick walls, I believe that Liu Bei is difficult to break!

The two gentlemen are a hundred times more intelligent than Huo, I don't know how we will deal with it next, and ask the two gentlemen to show the way! ”

"How many soldiers and horses are there in Gangneung now?" Pound asked openly.

"Huo's deputy general is counting, I think there should be more than 10,000 people, plus the original city defense army, it should be able to gather 30,000 people!"

"Hmm... It's better than the old man expected..."

"But with such a small number of manpower, in the face of Liu Bei's 150,000 army, there is no way to resist..."Huo Jun was a little unconfident.

"General rest assured, if Cheng Yan is not bad as expected, Liu Bei will not divide the troops at all, and the target will definitely be directed at Luoyang!" Pang Degong directly gave a positive answer!

"Why did Mr. Pang say this?" Huo Jun asked.

"The answer is obvious, although Liu Bei has an army of 150,000, it is slightly insufficient to use it as a siege of the city! Don't say that to seize the entire Jingzhou, it is difficult to conquer Xiangyang alone!

I just heard that General Huo said that King Hongnong is also in Xiangyang, if I change places with Liu Bei, I will definitely concentrate all my efforts to capture Xiangyang, after all, Brother Jingsheng and King Hongnong are there, once captured, you can use the two to blackmail Jing and Yi Erzhou, are you still worried that there is no foothold? ”

Pang Degong closed his eyes and thought about it, and slowly said the above words. At this time, Huo Jun had already calmed down and carefully analyzed what Pang Degong said.

After a long time, before Huo Jun could take the lead in speaking, a scout hurriedly came to the door, and after Huo Jun's consent, he ran into the front hall of the city guard mansion out of breath.

"My lord, Liu Bei and Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Chen Zhi and others rushed to Xiangyang overnight, and they can arrive tonight to see the speed!"

Hearing this, Huo Jun glanced at Huang Chengyan and the others on the side, and a feeling of emotion arose in his heart.

It's no wonder that these two people and Liu Jingzhou can become irreversible friends, and they see things thoroughly! ’

"So what do we do now?" Huo Jun looked at the two elders with hopeful eyes, hoping that they could help him tide over the difficulties.

"How many soldiers and horses are there in Gangneung City now?" Pang Degong did not shirk and asked.

"Although the latest results have not yet been counted, it should not be difficult to get together 50,000!"

"That's good, Jiangling is not far from Xiangyang, and the road is extremely smooth, and according to the distance, it should only take half an hour for us to reach Xiangyang."

"Do you need to send troops immediately?" Huo Jun continued to ask.

"No, our army is newly defeated, morale is low, and it was not Liu Beijun's opponent before, so even if you go now, it will be useless, it is better to take a good rest and always pay attention to the trends in Xiangyang. When it comes to the critical moment of the siege, we will send troops to help Xiangyang, which should get twice the result with half the effort! ”

"Okay, listen to what the two gentlemen say, the time is urgent, Huo will arrange it!" After speaking, Huo Jun turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Huang Chengyan again.

"By the way, General Huo remembered that after ruling out the situation of the scouts going south to explore the four counties of Jingnan, if Zhang Ren's army could come, plus General Huo's 50,000 people.

The 100,000 army and Xiangyang are attacked from both sides, which will definitely make Liu Bei's army come and go! ”

Hearing Huang Chengyan's words, Huo Jun's eyes lit up, yes, if Zhang Ren can come, then it will be foolproof! Thinking of this, Huo Jun hurriedly bowed down and clenched his fists.

"Thank you for your advice! Huo will arrange it! ”

After saying this time, he walked out of the hall quickly, turned on his horse, and hurried towards the barracks not far away!

Seeing Huo Jun walking away, Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Let's go, let's go back to the room and wait first!" As he spoke, Pang Degong instructed one of the guards to go to the residence not far from the city guard mansion to find them, and then the two of them walked out of the council hall one after the other.

On the other side, after Huo Jun went out, he ordered to pay attention to the city defense and carefully check the identity of the deserters, so as not to have enemy spies from mixing in, and then hurried to the barracks, looking at the soldiers who were lying or sitting or wailing, or depressed, Huo Jun had mixed feelings in his heart.

Once upon a time, myself... No, not only himself, but the entire Jingxiang, is so vulnerable.

Sun Jian is only one of the seven counties in Jingzhou, and he is as comfortable as his own back garden, and he can look for He Si'an everywhere.

Later, against Liu Bei, the three-way army was defeated and defeated under the condition of occupying a favorable geographical position.

Looking at the soldiers in front of him, and then thinking of the army that he saw Gao Pei at that time, Huo Jun's face showed a sad expression...
