The army commander who entered the city first loudly ordered the soldiers in the city and cheered. The mood was high.
"bump."
Under the command of Army Sima, the suspension bridge was lowered with a bang. The city gate opened completely with a creaking sound. Surrounded by his soldiers, Huang Zhong entered the city from the city gate.
This moment indicates that Liu Feng's plan is mostly successful. To disrupt Sun Ce's hegemony to the east and to defeat Chu in the south, as long as Cao Ren's attack in the north can be resisted.[
Liu Feng controlled four counties: Xinye County, Nanxiang County, Shangyong County, and Xiangyang County, with a population of more than one million. In terms of power, he had surpassed the power of small princes such as Zhang Lu of Hanzhong.
It is comparable to Ma Teng, Han Sui and other powerful forces, and not far behind the Jiangdong Sun family.
A moment ago, in the lobby of the South General's Mansion in Xiangyang Town.
After receiving the report from the minor official, Kuai Yue came to the hall to join Cai Mao and others.
"Xidu, how is the city defense going?" When Kuai Yue came in, Cai Mao and others immediately asked.
"The city is okay, my lord has done well. If we force ourselves, we might be able to defend Xiangyang. However, that would be too risky, so we should seek stability. Going south to Jiangling will be safer." Kuai Yue nodded and said with a smile.
"That's good. As long as we hold on for a day or two, we can safely transport all the supplies southward into Nanjun. We won't leave any benefit to Lu Su." Cai Hao and others breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Said with a smile.
"Yes." Kuai Yue also nodded with a smile. Then, Kuai Yue said to Cai Hao: "In that case, Degui, you go ahead and wait until tomorrow for my lord and I to break up."
With that said, Kuai Yue raised his fist to Cai Mao and said, "I'll leave it to Degui next. As long as we enter Nanjun, we can thrive again."
"Don't worry, Yidu. This time I promise you that I will never seek personal gain again. Everything will be based on the interests of Jingchu." Cai Mao said to Kuai Yue very, very solemnly.
Because again and again for selfish interests, Cai Mao almost destroyed the entire Jingchu. His own life was even in danger.
Cai Hao, I really don’t dare anymore, I’m scared.
As long as he can go south, enter Nanjun, and protect thousands of miles of southern property, he will be satisfied.
However, at this moment, a guard suddenly rushed in and reported: "My lords, my lord has passed away and the city has been destroyed."
"What?" Kuai Yue, Cai Hao and others screamed on the spot.
Suddenly, there was chaos in the hall.
"My lord is dead? The city is destroyed? How is this possible? A moment ago, I and my lord were guarding the city very well. How could it be destroyed in an instant?" Kuai Yue shouted.
Kuai Yue really couldn't believe it. Wasn't he fine just a moment ago? How could this happen?
"What should I do? What should I do? Xiangyang City has been destroyed so quickly. A large amount of baggage and a large amount of gold and silver have not been taken away. Our clans and children are all piled up in the south of the city. They have not escaped. What should I do?
, what should I do.”[
The ministers also shouted.
"Xiandu, what should we do now?" Cai Hao's face was also livid, but he was still a little calm, and turned his head and said to Kuai Yue.
"Don't panic, my lord still has a son. Let's rush out. As long as we go to Nanjun, we can make a comeback." Kuai Yue calmed down a little. After a brief thought, he finally had a new strategy and shouted.
"Okay, let's go, let's go."
The ministers suddenly shouted.
Immediately afterwards, Kuai Yue, Cai Mao and all the officials in Jingchu began to pour out of the Zhennan General's Mansion and headed towards the south of the city.
