As the saying goes, good fortune never comes in pairs, and misfortunes never come alone.
The news of the destruction of Xiangyang City had just come, but another piece of bad news hit Liu Xiu. Of course, it not only hit Liu Xiu's side, but also hit Zhu Yuanzhang and Yang Su.
Yue Fei was about to retreat from Jiangxia to Xiangyang. Yue Fei's retreat also meant that Xiang Yu had arrived.
Yes, Xiang Yu came and stormed Xiakou for five days, leaving tens of thousands of corpses behind, and broke into Xiakou in one fell swoop. As a result, the people of Xiakou were in tragedy again.
Tens of thousands of corpses were left behind in Xiakou, and coupled with the losses along the way, Xiang Yu had already lost a total of 20,000 troops at this time.
At this time, people like Liu Xiu and Zhu Yuanzhang could tell what was behind Yue Fei's retreat. They were going to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers. But for this, Liu Xiu, Zhu Yuanzhang and others
There is nothing you can do, who knows why Xiang Yu went crazy and chased Liu Xiu to fight alone!
However, although Jiangxia was in trouble, Liu Xiu could only order Wu Han, who came to plead guilty, to return to Nanjun. Liu Xiu only had this little territory in his hands, and he really couldn't lose any more.
get up.
Of course, Wu Han suffered a huge defeat and even lost Xiangyang, so it was naturally impossible for him to continue to be the leader. Wang Liao took over as the leader, and Wu Han could only be temporarily demoted to serve as Wang Liao's deputy.
After Xiakou was captured, Xiang Yu did not rush to take the next step, but quietly waited for Liu Xiu's arrival.
Liu Xiu is Xiang Yu's great enemy, and Yue Fei is also Xiang Yu's great enemy. However, no matter how arrogant Xiang Yu is, he never thinks that he really has the ability to defeat these two people at the same time. Arrogance is arrogance, but it does not mean that he is brainless.
Li Cunxiao and Huang Tianhua on Yue Fei's side, as well as Zhuge Kunlong, Deng Xia, and even Lu Er on Liu Xiu's coalition. Xiang Yu has all fought against these people, so he naturally knows the opponent's strength level.
Therefore, after capturing Xiakou, Xiang Yu was not in a hurry to take the next step.
At this time, Yue Fei temporarily left Jiangxia and went to Xiangyang in order to make room for Liu Xiu and Xiang Yu. With him around, the three parties would directly restrain each other, and it would not necessarily be easy to fight in the end.
Now that he has temporarily left Jiangxia, his intention to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers is clearly shown and not concealed at all, but even if Liu Xiu and Xiang Yu can hold it back for a while, they cannot hold it back for a while. This conflict
It will happen sooner or later.
At this moment, in the coalition camp, compared to the depressing atmosphere at Liu Xiu's place, Zhu Yuanzhang's place seemed much more normal. As Xiang Yu entered Xiakou, the defeated Fu Youde also came to Zhu Yuanzhang's camp.
Not only Fu Youde arrived, but also Ao Moang, who had fought bravely before. However, Zhu Tianpeng, Feng Qianlang, Yang Kan and other generals did not come with Fu Youde. It is impossible to say that there will be others among them next.
The mission is on!
Ao Moang's strength is not simple, even Zhu Tianpeng, who was also implanted as one of the protagonists of Journey to the West under Zhu Yuanzhang, is not his opponent.
Ao Mo'ang's cousin Xiao Long captured Tang Monk in the Heishui River and invited his uncle, the Dragon King of the West Sea, to come and eat Tang Monk's meat. After learning about it, the Dragon King of the West Sea immediately sent Mo Ang to lead his troops to capture the dragon. The cousins fought in a melee at the Black Water River.
In one battle, how could the little dragon resist the superb martial arts of his cousin Mo Aung? After three or five rounds, Mo Aung captured the dragon and brought him to justice.
The strength of the Dragon Dragon is roughly at the same level as that of the Sand Roller Curtain, and it is obviously at the weaker level among the eighty-one demons.
Zhu Tianpeng and Shajuanlian had fought several times in Liusha River, but they were always tied. It can be seen that the gap between the two is indeed very small.
However, the Dragon Dragon, which was roughly on the same level as Zhu Tianpeng and Shajuanyan, was defeated by Ao Mo'ang in three to five rounds. This alone is enough to illustrate Ao Mo'ang's strength.
Of course, Zhu Tianpeng's strength is more subtle. Judging from the Liusha River alone, his strength level is indeed comparable to that of the Sand Roller Curtain, but sometimes it is more than just that.
Outside Yunzhan Cave, Zhu Tianpeng, who was still a pig mane at that time, could fight Sun Wukong all night.
There was also Zhu Tianpeng's battle against King Silver Horn. King Silver Horn had fought Sun Wukong before, and there was no winner in thirty rounds. But this time Zhu Tianpeng met him on a narrow road, and they actually fought for 20 rounds, and not only did he not lose.
, but suppressed the Silver Horn King with his momentum, so that the latter had to call his minions to join the battle, and then captured Zhu Bajie.
However, Sand Roller Curtain could only fight Yinjiao for eight or nine rounds before being captured by him. This shows that compared to Sand Roller Curtain, Zhu Tianpeng's strength is indeed somewhat subtle.
Although Fu Youde lost several battles in a row at the hands of Xiang Yu, Zhu Yuanzhang only reprimanded him symbolically and did not impose heavy penalties. After all, Xiang Yu was indeed not that easy to deal with.
"My lord, now that things have happened, it will be difficult to defeat the Jin army. I'm afraid Jingbei will have to defend it again!"
"Instead of doing this, we might as well ask our two allies to help me with this small favor!" Yao Guangxiao said silently in the big tent.
The failure of the last war was indeed a big blow to Yao Guangxiao, who considered himself resourceful and had a plan to pacify the world.
However, Yao Guangxiao is not a person who will be knocked down by one or two blows. Setbacks will only become nutrients for his growth. After experiencing failure, Yao Guangxiao has become more restrained, and his plans have become more thorough and meticulous.
"The military advisor's intention is to use the power of Yang Su and Liu Xiu to consume the Jin army and Xiang army!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a change of expression.
As Yao Guangxiao said, based on their current strength compared with the Jin army in northern Jingbei, their chances of winning this battle are really low. Since the previous defeat, Liu Xiu has lost Xiangyang again and wants to defeat the Jin army again.
It’s hard to drive out Jingbei! It’s hard to keep Jingbei!
What's more, now Xiang Yu's big trouble has come!
However, even if Jingbei is really unable to survive in the future, they still have many important things to do. It does not mean that they should just give up on Liu Xiu just because the odds of winning have dropped again and again!
Liu Xiu still had some strength in Jingbei, and there were still a few strong generals in Jingbei, and Yang Su also had some strength. Next, they continued to defend the remaining territories in Jingbei city after city, which was enough to consume a considerable part of the Jin army's strength.
Moreover, Xiang Yu's opponent has already arrived. It just so happens that he can use the power of the three princes to give him a severe meal. In this way, it can also provide him with the opportunity to invade the remaining areas of Jingnan and even Jiaozhou again.
