Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

Chapter 479: Clinging to the green mountains, not afraid of being shattered into pieces——

The torch was bright, and Zhou Tai's body was placed on the ground.

Beside his body, a row of large characters drawn with a gun tip stained with blood stood out:

——"The murderer is Mi Fang from Donghai, Xuzhou!" 』

Sonorous, powerful and magnificent!

Looking at Zhou Tai, there were thirteen holes in his body, as if...the blood had drained out of these holes, and his death was very tragic.

Pan Zhang couldn't bear to look and turned away sadly.

Xu Sheng knelt on the ground, caressed the corpse and cried, "General Zhou, General Zhou... Youping, Youping, that mere Mi Fang? How could he be your opponent? How could he take away your life! You are now alive The head is in a different place, that is my fault, I... I will capture Jingzhou and kill that Mi Fang... I will avenge you, Youping... Youping!"

Behind Xu Sheng, rows of Soochow navy soldiers stood side by side, with deep sorrow in everyone's eyes.

In addition to mourning the death of Jiangdong tough guy Zhou Tai.

The attack was unsuccessful and the generals were defeated in the first battle. This... undoubtedly cast a thick layer of gloom over the raid on Jingzhou.

The other party...is on guard!

Now it’s Zhou Tai, what’s next?

For a time, the Soochow soldiers started talking one by one.

"Are you still going to attack?"

"We originally made a surprise attack, but now we have turned into an enemy waiting for work. Mi Fang, a useless general in the Jingzhou army, was able to kill General Zhou Tai. Obviously... the enemy is on guard!"

"If we attack rashly again, who knows, there might be some ambush?"

At this moment, an aggravated voice chanted, "There is no turning back arrow when you open the bow. If you don't shoot now and retreat, then... what's going on? Are we all Jiang Dong Erlang shameless?"

Well…

These were Ma Zhong's words, and with his voice, the soldiers fell silent.

Yes, they were all attacked and killed, or were they several times the enemy's strength? return to? What kind of attitude are they going to take?

Just when the sergeants looked solemn.

A scout rushed to Xu Sheng's side, "General Xu, we have already investigated. There are no ambushes around the road leading from here to Jiangling City... In addition, it has been found that the Mi family army that won the first battle has already been After retreating into Jiangling City, the entire Jiangling City was lit up with torches, and the whole city was illuminated like daylight, especially the gloomy garrison standing there!"

call…

With a long exhale, Xu Sheng, who was originally squatting, gritted his teeth and stood up.

He raised his head and eyes, looking at Jiangling City not far away, and loudly ordered: "Send my military order to attack the city tonight and avenge General Zhou——"

ah…

Xu Sheng's order stunned all the soldiers.

But then, with a "swish" sound, Xu Sheng pulled out the ancient ingot knife.

"This sword belongs to General Sun Jian. General Sun Jian is a person whom I admire. He always takes the lead in battles and is unparalleled in bravery. I, Xu Sheng, will imitate him today. I will arrive at Jiangling City later. The army will no longer rest and attack the city directly! Attack! When we were in the city, I, Xu Sheng, was at the forefront. If I took a step back, the soldiers behind me would immediately kill me. Similarly, if any of you dare to take a step back, then... the soldiers behind me would kill the deserters on the spot!"

Having said this, Xu Sheng paused for a moment, but raised his tone, "Use offense as defense, defeat the enemy and defend the river. In this battle, we will either break the city, or I will be buried under the Jiangling City together with you all!"

With these cold words, anyone could tell...this was no joke.

——General Xu is serious!

You know, in the battle of Ruxukou, Xu Sheng led a warship to fight against Cao's army.

Unexpectedly, there was a sudden storm and the ship landed on the enemy's shore. The generals were frightened and no one dared to get out of the ship to fight.

Only Xu Sheng took the lead and led his soldiers ashore to kill the enemy. Cao's army was frightened by Xu Sheng and fled, suffering heavy casualties...

Xu Sheng rushed to kill him and did not return until the storm stopped.

This is also the origin of his name "Breaking Formation"!

It was this battle that made Sun Quan look at Xu Sheng sideways. It was recorded in history that "Quan is the most powerful", and it also made Xu Sheng become a famous general in Soochow and the "general" in the hearts of Soochow soldiers!

Now, Zhou Tai is dead, the vanguard army has been defeated, and its morale has been knocked down!

If it were anyone else, he would have set up camp and considered the long term, but for Xu Sheng, it was him who had lost his morale, so... he had to go and get it back in person!

Thoughts on this…

Xu Sheng's loud voice rose again, resounding and echoing in the dense forest:

"Emergency March——"

"Attack the city soon——"

…

…

Mi Yang expressed his joy to his father Mi Fang and uncle Ma Liang. And... Liu Chan, the young master who is talking endlessly about "Journey to the West", narrates.

"——A great victory, a great victory on the front line. General Zhao Zilong killed Wu Army General Zhou Tai in formation, and thousands of Dong Wu's forward troops were almost completely wiped out!"

"Won?"

Mi Fang was listening to "Sun Wukong beats the Bone Demon three times" with great interest, when a piece of unexpected news came back, which made him stand up suddenly.

Ma Liangze asked quickly: "Where is General Zilong?"

"We have entered the city and are resting." Mi Yang replied first, and then explained in detail, "Sure enough, Zhou Tai fell into the trap and was lured into the forest by General Zilong who pretended to be his father, and kept a distance from the army behind him. The army was unable to rush to rescue, and in the end... he was pierced to death by General Zilong's silver spear and white horse. General Zilong You left a line of large characters on the ground - the murderer is Xuzhou Donghai Mi Fang!"

Well…

This time, Mi Yang's words surprised Mi Fang!

It's not because Zhao Yun killed Zhou Tai.

In fact, Zhao Zilong entered and exited seven times, with a white horse and a silver spear... When it comes to martial arts, even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei may not be their opponents. Killing Zhou Tai was just ordinary... ordinary.

What really surprised Mi Fang was the line left by Zhao Yun...

Was he Mi Fang the murderer?

this…

Isn't this a great contribution to Mi Fang?

Thinking of this, Mi Fang couldn't help but chirp, and murmured softly: "General Zilong has never cared about these human relationships, why is he so particular this time?"

Of course, Mi Fang's words were subconsciously asked and did not have much deep meaning.

Unexpectedly, Liu Chan, a tough-headed man, replied without thinking: "It's very simple...because my uncle Zilong has also listened to a round of teachings from my fourth brother Guan."

Uh...this...

Teaching?

Liu Chan's words quickly attracted the attention of Mi Fang and Ma Liang, who were about to ask more.

"Report——"

A voice had already been heard, and a soldier hurriedly ran into the watchtower and reported loudly: "The Soochow Army...The Soochow Army is pressing forward. Judging from the posture, the siege equipment is deployed...mostly...mostly they are going to attack the city at night! "

Because hundreds of torches were lit in Jiangling City, the entire city tower was illuminated as if it were daytime.

Therefore, Wu Jun's actions were clearly seen by the defenders of Jiangling City.

On the contrary... the report of "enemy troops attacking the city" was chanted, causing Mi Fang and Ma Liang's expressions to change suddenly.

——"It came so quickly!" 』

The generals were defeated in the first battle. No matter how much Mi Fang and Ma Liang guessed, they did not expect that Xu Sheng would attack the city tonight.

"Where is General Zilong?" Ma Liang asked quickly.

"Already commanding the sergeants on the tower..."

Following the soldier's report, Mi Fang let out a long sigh and looked at his son Mi Yang, "My son, take Adou to the inner city..."

As she spoke, Mi Fang turned around and planned to go to the city...

Mi Yang will lead Liu Chan and Yu Huan back and forth into the inner city.

"I dont go--"

Who would have thought that Liu Chan directly denied Mi Fang's instructions, "Brother Guan always said, 'What you see on paper will eventually make you realize it, but you will definitely know how to do it.' When I grew up, apart from what I experienced in Uncle Zilong's armor, Apart from the killings on the battlefield, I have never seen combat... But that time, Uncle Zilong and I went in and out of each other. I was too young and had no impression of anything..."

"Brother Guan always taught me, saying that I don't even know what fighting means? How can I understand this battlefield...how can I understand my father, my second uncle, my third uncle, and Master Kong Ming. Thinking about it this way, actually...I'm like It was Tang Monk, who had never seen a monster, and had never even heard of the blind trick. How could he distinguish the true from the false? In the end, he was stuck in his own ways, insisted on going his own way, listened to one thing and believed the other, and could only act like he wrongly blamed the monkey. …I often think that if you always trap me, won’t it make me become as pedantic and self-contained as Tang Sanzang when I grow up…”

"Extraordinary times should be used to do extraordinary things, and extraordinary people should achieve extraordinary achievements. I don't want to shut down Fourth Brother... He can always make achievements and be far-sighted, but... I also want to see and see what the attack on the city is like. How turbulent it is, how cruel it is to defend the city!"

Liu Chan hasn’t finished speaking yet…

But Mi Fang and Ma Liang were stunned for a while.

——So many idioms!

——It’s also...what a profound and penetrating insight!

It stands to reason... Today is an unusual time, with strong enemies pressing down on the situation. They should not be surprised by Liu Chan's words, nor should they pay too much attention.

But... when this well-known naughty boy, this uneducated and unscrupulous boy in Liu Bei's mouth, could say such words that were "instrumental" but full of "genuine insights", both Mi Fang and Ma Liang were shocked.

It seems... makes sense!

"Dad..." Mi Yang also said, "I think Mr. Adou is right!"

"Of course it makes sense." Liu Chan straightened his chest, and his originally tiger-like appearance suddenly became serious, "At least, let me see what is attacking a city and what is defending a city!"

yes…

Just as Liu Chan said, in history, when Deng Ai sneaked into Yinping and Jiang Weishang was resisting on the front line, he directly opened the city gate and surrendered...

This is what Liu Chan is most criticized for.

But in fact, in his life... let alone fighting, he has seen sieges and defenses, has he ever understood these?

If you don't know anything, then you just have a dark eye on this war... except to follow Tang Sanzang's example and let it go, and be stubborn in your own opinions. What else can you do?

It's no wonder... Liu Chan in history would listen to the words of treacherous people. No wonder he would resolutely give up resistance and surrender in Kaicheng during the siege of Chengdu.

He doesn't know anything, so how can he resist? Take your head and your blood?

Looking back at Mi Fang, Liu Chan's words... made him suddenly realize, but he quickly shook his head.

The war was about to begin, and he didn't have time to think about it so much. He simply waved his hand and said, "Since the third brother said so...I won't care about you...you be careful! My son...you must protect Mr. Adou! If things go wrong, , retreat into the inner city immediately!"

"yes…"

Following Mi Yang's agreement, Mi Fang and Ma Liang quickly walked out of the watchtower.

Because they were prepared in advance, and because Zhao Yun was sitting on the tower of Jiangling City.

So... everything was ready. The Mi family soldiers who had just returned quickly changed their tactics from attack to defense. There was... unusual perseverance in everyone's eyes.

Watching...

Wu Jun's siege still requires some ordnance preparations.

Mi Fang began to make final mobilization.

"You are all members of my Mi family. Many of you have been my disciples from Donghai? You have followed me to Jiangling. Others...I, Mi Fang, will not talk about it. You all know that Jiangling City New City But 30% of it belongs to our Mi family. I, Mi Fang, have also given you everyone's share of the income... The less is one yard, the more is three or four yards, there are shops, and there are acres of land... Don't look at you all risking your own money. You are working hard like a dog to guard Jiangling City, but your family can spend all day leisurely collecting rent in the city, and your children are living as carefree as gods!"

Mi Fang spoke, her tone rising a little, "The fourth eldest brother of the Guan family, that is, my third brother, what kind of person is he? No need for me to describe it in detail, right? He owns 70% of the land in Jiangling New City. ...He told me that apart from half of it being used for Mianshui Villa, the rest is used to reward meritorious soldiers! Who is so special that you want your family to collect more rent, and who is so special that your children can live more freely? Happy, just hold your weapons tightly for me... and show me your merits one by one!"

At this point, Mi Fang's tone reached its peak of excitement.

"But there is one thing you must remember. If Jiangling City is destroyed, not only will we be gone, our family will be gone, our land will be gone, and the good old days will never come back. Damn... I was in the East China Sea, and as Uncle Liu Huang climbed out from the pile of dead people, I never want to go back to those ghost days of sleeping in the open air, hungry and full. Brothers... My third brother and I have already settled the world's overwhelming wealth. Once we get out, let’s see if the brothers can hold on!”

As Mi Fang uttered these impassioned words, all the fear and worry in the eyes of all the soldiers of this Mi family army, which was known as "scum-like" in history, disappeared.

Those sharp eyes were suddenly filled with green light.

Although Mi Fang's words didn't sound good, she kept talking about "special mother-in-law" in her speeches, but inexplicably... it made people's blood boil.

Not for myself!

For the family!

This feeling can easily make people excited!

And the cursing "special mother" also reminded these soldiers of their own mothers.

If they were not part of the Mi family army, if their General Mi Fang...had not followed the right person, then maybe...their mother would be like all the other people in this world, sleeping in the open and living in a precarious situation.

But... just because they are from the Mi family army, and because their general is following Guan Lin, all their wives have become big rent collectors.

The kind of days when you wake up naturally and see money when you open your eyes every day, let alone how happy you are.

And my daughter-in-law... As long as she is a member of the Mi family army, at home, she will be treated like a pure man!

But... now, some people want to destroy it all, some want to break through Jiangling City and claim everything they have...

Now, there are only three sonorous words left buried in the hearts of these Mi family members: "No way!" 』

——Absolutely not!

At this time...

I don’t know who shouted out.

"I'm in the city!"

Immediately afterwards, someone changed the sentence and shouted again: "People are in the city!"

Then there was a roar like a mountain and a tsunami, and thousands of Mi family members shouted in unison, "People are in the city, people are in the city!"

After a while, they all screamed "Aoao".

…

Jiangling City, the military fortress in Jingzhou, the siege and defense battle surrounding it officially started.

From the beginning of the war, this battle quickly entered a fever pitch.

Countless Wu troops carried ladders and set them up on the city wall at night. The mighty troops and horses quickly swarmed towards the city under Xu Sheng's charge.

Completely different from Lu Meng's offensive strategy of splitting up troops to test, Xu Sheng's entire army pressed forward from the beginning, and the entire Jiangling City fell into the most tense state in an instant.

Countless Mi family soldiers took turns to defend each gate, and the arrows on the tower were like rain...but most of them hit the Wu army's shield.

Beside the river, the night was extremely cold in the river style, but whether it was the defenders on the tower or the Wu troops charging up, everyone was sweating...

Under the city, Wu Jun found that bows and arrows could not shoot into the city, so... Xu Sheng decisively ordered a trebuchet to be quickly built. Countless stones drew arcs in the sky, destroying the city wall...

You must know that in ancient marching operations, there was no need to move the entire "trebuchet". All the ministries needed to do was to bring some key components of the "trebuchet" and let the baggage team move the frame to the city. It will be set up quickly.

Even though this "trebuchet" was built quickly, its power is not small... A city wall made of ordinary rammed earth cannot stop the offensive of this "trebuchet". In a matter of seconds, it is enough to destroy the earth. The wall collapsed!

"Rumble..."

The "rumbling" sound was like an earthquake, ringing continuously and endlessly.

Can…

What shocked Wu Jun was... no matter how hard the stone was, no matter how powerful the destructive power was, it... still couldn't destroy the city wall.

Different from...Changsha City, it was a city wall built under the supervision of Hao Zhao himself. Every detail was personally considered, and every material used was inspected repeatedly.

Jiangling City was built by Mi Fang!

Considering that 30% of the land in the new city belonged to his Mi Fang, his Mi family, and the money and food used to build the city, not only did he not be greedy for money, but on the contrary, when money and food were tight, he had to pay for it out of his own pocket.

Even when there are many materials that can be chosen between "good" and "medium", Mi Fang will choose the former without hesitation...

In terms of money and conditions, if you don't have money... Then to create money, use Mi Fang's private money... to create conditions!

What Mi Fang built was not the city, but the wealth of his Mi Fang, which was the wealth that his Mi family passed down from generation to generation——

"General... Even the catapult can't destroy this city wall... After several rounds of attacks, this city wall won't move at all!"

Xu Sheng, who was on the front line of the city and was coordinating the command, heard this news, and his thick and bushy eyebrows almost formed an inverted figure.

He doubted... was this city wall made of "iron"?

In anger, Xu Sheng roared loudly.

"If you can't knock down the city wall, then smash it into the city... hit the towers, hit people, hit those thieves, hit that trash Mi Fang to death -"

Following Xu Sheng's instructions...

For a time, Soochow's rock-trebuchets launched an even more violent offensive...

The flying rocks all over the sky were like falling meteors, constantly hitting the top of Jiangling City.

Cooperating with the ladder, rushing the car... Under the moonlight, the battle was particularly fierce.

…

Mi Fang... was uncharacteristically not afraid of these boulders. He was the leader of the Mi family army and the owner of one-third of Jiangling New City. He could feel that he was driven by huge money and interests.

What Zhao Zilong!

Haha, in this embarrassing moment, the Mi family will only regard him as the backbone, and he must show unusual calmness and calmness... even calmness.

There was only one thought in his mind.

——"Smash it, smash it... If you can smash a hole in this city, I, Mi Fang, will cut off my head and give it to you!" 』

That’s right, so confident!

"boom…"

But at this moment, a huge boulder fell from the sky.

The huge boulder fell directly and landed on the observation tower on a city tower. This tower was made of wood and tiles. Suddenly... the rubble flew everywhere, and almost half of the entire observation tower collapsed.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this scene...

Just now they saw that the city wall was motionless in the face of the stone attack. They thought... Wu Jun's catapult was nothing more than that.

But now...this devastating scene happened before our eyes. For a moment, the sky was filled with dust. Some people were wailing, some were so scared that they were pissing, and some were lying on the ground in fear.

What's even more frightening is...more and more flying rocks are constantly hitting the tower.

"boom--"

"Rumble--"

The huge roar made the defenders' ears hurt...

As a result, some unfortunate soldiers were crushed by boulders amidst the roar and turned into a puddle of flesh.

And when the dust in the sky dispersed, all the soldiers saw vague shadows in this crooked ruins.

This shadow was standing on the boulder. He held his waist with both hands, as if he was showing the greatest contempt for the enemy's flying ball. His figure... was like a green pine.

It's more like - don't let up on the green hills!

It's Mi Fang!

His image has been tall and majestic twice in his life. The first time was in Fuhu Mountain in Jiangxia. He single-handedly used a sidecar to stop Wenpin's raid and his warships from burning Jingzhou!

This time, he faced the rubble falling from the sky and stood proudly...like a true god!

Yes, this time he was even more proud than that time in Fuhu Mountain, and his whole body seemed to be shining!

In this era, everyone still doesn’t know what it means to “hold firm on the mountains and never let go”, but... Mi Fang’s image at this moment is probably associated with “not afraid of having his bones broken into pieces”!

"snort…"

Mi Fang, who seemed to be shining in the dust, let out a contemptuous snort.

He pinched his big and round waist with one hand, pointed at the enemies below the city with the other, and ordered the soldiers behind him: "What are you doing standing there in a daze? They have catapults, but we don't have the eight-oxen crossbow. Why haven't we fought back yet?" ?Smash it for me...smash those rock dump trucks——"

"..."

Mi Fang's words stunned everyone.

Including Zhao Yun, he also looked at Mi Fang with a look of shock, disbelief, and strangeness.

For a moment, he seemed to have a feeling...

After all these years, has he never really gotten to know...the lord's brother-in-law in front of him?

Is this mediocre general who is at the bottom of the pack in terms of martial arts and command, and has a lot of shortcomings?

It’s not just Zhao Yun…

Everyone looked at Mi Fang with admiration, including Liu Chan who was in a safe position.

He whispered in his mind.

——"Uncle Zifang, you are so mighty...This is a real man!" 』

——'Sure enough, Fourth Brother Guan is right, as long as the money is in place, life... is not important anymore! 』

Indeed, in the face of sudden disaster, it takes a person... to inspire people with courage.

It is true that in the face of 50% profit, some people will take desperate risks. Similar to this, this kind of huge profit is enough for Mi Fang... to trample all lives, including his own!

undoubtedly…

During Liu Chan's important growth and development stage, being able to see such a scene is extremely beneficial to his growth.

Even, right next to Mi Fang, another big stone fell down. This big stone hit a weapon rack, and the weapon rack was shattered. This scene happened within three steps of Mi Fang's side.

But Mi Fang is still calm and composed...

In the eyes of countless admiring people who "want to kneel down", there is no doubt that... with his own flesh and blood, the Mi family army gradually calmed down under the violent bombardment of huge rocks.

It seems... everyone is suddenly not so afraid of the enemy's stones.

"Prefect Mi... I will launch the eight-oxen crossbow right now -"

"The Thunderbolt Ten Oxen Crossbows have been in place a long time ago. If it hadn't been for Prefect Mi to remind me, I would have almost forgotten -"

"Prefect Mi, let's compete with who can shoot farther. Our Mi family army has never lost yet—"

Mi Fang's cold gaze slowly lowered, and he stepped off the boulder. Facing the eager eyes of everyone, he just faintly chanted two words, "Go quickly -"

Not long after...

"Rumble..."

At the position of Wu Jun's catapult formation, huge eight-oxen crossbow arrows were fired one after another.

It is as powerful as a stormy wave. Once it hits, it will smash Wu Jun's trebuchet into pieces in an instant...

indeed…

Just as Mi Jiajun said, the eight-niu crossbow can shoot much further than the trebuchet.

The power...is also much stronger.

For a time, the battlefield of both sides went from near to far, and from far to near.

The two sides competed with each other on ladders, arrows, and logs up and down the city. On the other hand, in that distant place, "random bombing and smashing" was going on...from a long distance...

The bloody setting sun filled the entire starry sky, and also dyed Jiangling... the city and the city under the night an unusually bloody red!

…

…

In Xiangyang City, inside the official office.

Guan Lin paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back. His hesitating figure was cast on the window. In the past two days, the dangerous scenes of Xiangfan battlefield and the city on fire were replayed in his mind from time to time.

Of course, as news came back one after another.

For example, Xinye City... Niu Gai led 10,000 soldiers to surrender, and all the small towns between Xinye and Fancheng... also gave up resistance and surrendered on the lookout!

For example, after the fierce fire, Cao Ren's death was like the last straw for the Wei army in Xiangfan. A large number of Wei soldiers gave up resistance and became prisoners.

For another example, Xu Huang's 30,000 soldiers were surrounded in Pinglu City.

Originally this was part of the plan, but what was unexpected was that they were trying their best to escape from Pinglu City every day... The number of Wei troops who returned to Jingzhou actually exceeded a thousand.

It seems that whether it is Xu Huang or the Wei army in Pinglu City, their mentality has collapsed and the situation is out of control!

It stands to reason…

Everything is developing in a positive direction.

The situation... is very optimistic!

Next, it depends on Zhuge Ke's performance in Xudu City...

Let's see if Zhuge Liang's stepson can fight with the scholars in Xudu City like his stepfather and win the best for Jingzhou!

certainly…

It is expected that soon, the battle report of the Xiangfan battlefield will be transmitted to Xudu City.

You know, under Guan Lin's instruction, the Jingzhou Army deliberately let go of some of the Wei Army's scouting horses and sentry riders, just to let Xu Ducheng get the news here as soon as possible.

Of course, these are not the reasons for Guan Lin's hesitation.

Spread out in front of him was a map. The location of the Xiangfan battlefield had been marked, as if... that was already in the past tense, and the newly marked location Guan Lin was marking was Jiangxia, south of the Yangtze River.

Up the river from Dongting Lake is Wulin, and on the other side of Wulin is the famous Red Cliff.

After passing Red Cliff is Sun Quan. In the part of the county town of "Jiangxia" he occupied, Shaxian was established as the government seat!

Going deeper...it is Soochow's last barrier - Chaisang!

Guan Lin drew a line from Dongting Lake, and then connected Wulin, Chibi, Shaxian, Chaisang, and then E County, Fankou... and finally Jianye, Wujun...

All of these are connected together by Guan Lin.

This is a winding line!

At the same time, this is also a fatal attack route towards Jiangdong.

It was Guan Lin who instructed his father Guan Yu to give up rescuing Jiangling and Changsha. Instead, when the Soochow army was dispatched and the interior was empty... he rushed to attack Wulin and Chibi and captured Shaxian... The soldiers pointed at Chaisang, directly threatening the heart of Soochow. ground’s offensive line.

Mention this route.

Naturally... Guan Lin would think of the conversation he had with his father Guan Yu a few days ago after learning that the battlefield in Fancheng was "a city full of flames and a sea of ​​hellfire."

Still from Guan Lin’s words...

——"The most dangerous place is often the place with the most flowers and flowers... Dad, the place you should pay attention to is not the front line, but the back... It is the land of Jingzhou bordering Soochow!"

Faced with this reminder, Guan Yu's reply was: "My son means that under the current situation, will Sun Quan definitely stab him in the back?"

"Yes! I'm sure! Definitely! And definitely!"

Guan Lin's words were meticulous and extremely sure, "Jiangdong is a group of rats, and what they are best at is backstabbing. What's more... Sun Quan will not let Jingzhou grow bigger, so he will definitely point his troops at Jingzhou, and based on the geographical location, he The only ones that can make a surprise attack are Jiangling and Changsha! Admittedly, these were originally deduced by Hao'er, but... just now, Hao'er's flying ball soldiers have sent back the information about the troops dispatched from Soochow, which is exactly the same as what Hao'er analyzed!"

Reasonable and well-founded!

That’s true!

this…

Facing his son's words, Guan Yu pondered for a moment, but soon he raised his head and raised his eyes, "Then, father, go to Jiangling and Changsha to repel these Jiangdong rats who can only hurt people with secret arrows!"

"Not good." Guan Lin's denial came so unexpectedly... Guan Yu was also stunned.

"What?" Guan Yu didn't wait to ask.

Guan Lin's voice chanted again, "Father, according to the information brought by the Flying Ball Soldiers, this time Soochow sent out nearly one hundred thousand troops. One hundred thousand... But... I remember that the total number of soldiers in Soochow was only a few hundred thousand. , except for the necessary garrisons in the six counties and seventy-two counties of Jiangdong, that is to say... once this Wu army moves, the entire Jiangdong will be empty! The water village of Dongting Lake is empty, the Chibi and Wulin of Yiyang City are empty, and the south of the Yangtze River is empty. The Shaxian is empty, even Chaisang, Fankou, Jianye, Wujun... these are all empty!"

Well…

Guan Yu is not a fool. How could he not know what his son meant when his son reminded him of this?

He thought for a moment and then asked immediately.

"My son wants to be his father and surround Wei and save Zhao?"

Guan Yu thought he guessed correctly...

However, he still underestimated his son Guan Lin's ambition.

I saw Guan Lin lowering his head to straighten the creases on his sleeves. With a flick of his wrist, his index and middle fingers stretched out directly, cutting through the void and across the Dongting Lake on the desktop map...

The route drawn is the line from Dongting Lake to Chaisang, Jianye and Wujun.

"Father, why bother surrounding 'Wei' to save Zhao? Just attack 'Wei'... As long as we have the skills to save Zhao, Wei will capture it directly!" Guan Lin's eyes were dim and a look of determination flashed on his face, "Soochow Zong A hundred thousand troops are pressing down on the border, but the boy is sure that they can't capture Jiangling or Changsha... On the contrary, it's his father. The boy thinks... Today's Jiangdong is full of elites, and no one can stop his father's thousands-mile attack——"

this…

Guan Yu originally wanted to ask his son, why is he so confident in Jiangling and Changsha?

But... the current situation has developed to the present point, and there is no time to wait and it is imminent.

More importantly... in Guan Yu's opinion, this seemingly rebellious Qilin'er is actually "amazing in ideas" and "unbelievable in his imagination". What he said... is 90% correct!

What happened in the past year and the changing situation have created Guan Yu's trust in his son. He can always do the right thing at the right time.

It must be the same this time.

Immediately... Guan Yu did not ask Guan Lin about the garrison in "Jiangling" and "Changsha", but just repeatedly confirmed the marching route to Guan Lin.

That is... avoid rushing to Jiangling, but instead go down the river from the dock, pointing directly at Dongting Lake, then Wulin and Chibi, which is... Shaxian, Chaisang, Jianye, Wujun...

This is to dig up the roots of Soochow in one fell swoop——

Guan Yu did indeed proceed in this way. While Changsha and Jiangling were fighting fiercely...

Neither Lu Meng nor Xu Sheng would have thought that a naval force from Jingzhou had already conquered Soochow's water stronghold in Dongting Lake.

The Guan family army led by Guan Yu went down the river without stopping. Their next destination was Wulin and Chibi in Yiyang County!

According to the water route, tomorrow... is enough to arrive!

certainly…

Guan Yu could move forward without worrying about the defensive positions of Changsha and Jiangling, but Guan Lin was still worried.

now…

According to the information sent back by the flying ball soldiers, the war between the two cities has already begun.

And according to what Guan Lin mentioned about using fewer enemies to defeat more... "Being able to defend" these two cities is the prerequisite for buying time for his father Guan Yu's "stealing home", no, for the great cause of "changing homes". In fact, there is one, It's not Cheng...but his good second brother Guan Lin - Mi Fang!

With Zhengu——Hao Zhao!

The two of them...are the key to whether the city can be defended!

——"They two...are okay?" 』

With this in mind, Guan Lin urgently asked his bodyguard: "Is there any latest news..."

"No!"

Guan Lin was slightly disappointed, but soon his eyebrows rose, "Pay close attention to all letters! When scouts and detectives arrive, you can drive directly to the official office and report to me immediately!"

"promise--"

Followed by a guard's voice.

Guan Lin's dark eyes, wandering, worried and hesitant figure... were cast on the window as always!

His shadow was stretched extraordinarily long by the moonlight!

The moonlight is lonely, but the man under the moonlight, his heart is boiling and hot——

…

…

——Yiyang City? How to attack?

This is a problem that Guan Yu, who is still on the river, must solve.

Yiyang encompasses Chibi and Wulin, and was the main battlefield of the Battle of Chibi. Its strategic location is not unimportant. For this reason, Guan Yu could sweep in with his warships and capture the Dongting Lake Water Village in Soochow, but... what about Yiyang City? attack?

Of course, the flying ball flying far in the sky is guiding the direction in front, reminding the Guan family army... where is the ambush? Where is the eyeliner? Where are the enemy's weakest defenses?

With these flying balls in front of them, Guan Yu and Guan Jiajun were inexplicably more confident.

"Father, the top priority, the most important thing is... the Guan family army arrived in time, and other than ladders, they did not carry any siege equipment..."

Guan Ping's serious analysis said, "If we cannot capture Yiyang City in one fell swoop, but let Soochow react and report the intelligence, then the city will inevitably have more troops and reinforcements, and the walls will be clear... If that happens, the Guan family army will be trapped. A protracted war goes against the fourth brother’s plan.”

Following Guan Ping's words, Guan Yu nodded solemnly.

Guan Jiajun is good at field warfare and water warfare, but he is not good at attacking fortresses...

It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. If you can't climb up the top of Yiyang City, how can you get down from Chibi and Wulin? How to attack Sha Xian? How could Bing Feng point at Chai Sang?

More importantly, Guan Yu's style of attack this time was "attacking people from thousands of miles away", which imitated the battlefields of Baima and Yanjin before the Battle of Guandu. The enemy had scouts and scouts to report back, but... the speed of Guan Yu's advance, Faster than they reported.

The intelligence received from the front foot...the army from the back foot has already attacked the city. This is the real attack from thousands of miles away, attacking the enemy unprepared!

precisely…

This Yiyang City has become a big mountain blocking Guan Yu. It can be said that if you don't climb over this city, you can't occupy the port or cross the river!

Integrity... Guan Yu was thinking.

"Second General——"

A shout sounded...

Guan Yu heard the sound and was wondering, who could it be?

But Zhou Cang heard the tone first, "It's Liao Hua..."

Sure enough, on the river... Liao Hua met Guan Yu in a awning boat.

"Second General..."

Seeing Guan Yu, Liao Hua first bowed his hands and saluted.

Guan Yu then said: "General Liao is the captain of my son Jiangxia County. He has a very important relationship. How come he is here..."

Following Guan Yu's inquiry, Liao Hua once again handed over: "The last general was ordered by Young Master Yunqi to bring two gadgets to the second general. With these gadgets... it will be easy to defeat Yiyang!"

call…

Following Liao Hua's words, Guan Yu exclaimed slightly in his heart.

——"Have I even got the siege equipment?" 』

Thinking this in his mind, Guan Yu was curious and asked quickly: "What is it?"

Liao Hua gave it up and said, "There is a village nearby. As early as four months ago, Mr. Yun Qi secretly sent our people to buy houses in this village without any secret. Now...this village is full of us." people, and have already prepared the siege equipment, but now... all they need to do is to splice the equipment together! The second general... must have never heard of his name. Mr. Yunqi said that one of them is called a double-hook chariot... and the other one, But he’s a big guy!”
