Regardless of whether the people present believe Liu Biao's words or not, it has already reached this time. Five days late or five days early does not make any difference at all, so this group of people are waiting for the time Liu Biao said indifferently. If Yuan Shu does not retreat when the time is up,
Then these people realize that surrendering is what they should do! By the way, they will also severely lose Liu Biao's face, and when the time comes, they will have something to talk about with Yuan Shu.
The day after Liu Biao made the announcement, Jiangling City was almost captured. The entire city defense was crumbling, and many of Yuan Shu's soldiers were killed directly. If Huang Zhong hadn't killed the Yuan Shu's generals who rushed up with several bows and arrows, Liu Pan then led the preparations.
The team blocked up and forced Yuan Shu's army to squeeze out. Maybe Jiangling City was captured by Yuan Shu.
Seeing this scene, all the major families who followed Liu Biao to retreat to Jiangling sneered. No matter whether Yuan Shu retreats or not after five days, whether Liu Biao can hold Jiangling is still a problem.
That night, under Yang Hong's persuasion, Yuan Shu took advantage of the darkness to slowly retreat. However, Yang Hong, who had always been of average intelligence, remembered that he must have an army behind him.
The next day, the entire Yuan Shu camp was silent. Liu Biao's army dragged his tired body to prepare for the battle. After a long time, Huang Zhong, who was very discerning, saw the emptiness inside through the gap in the big tent that was blown open. He was stunned for a moment, and then quickly informed Liu Biao.
It seems that Huang Zhong has gained some fighting spirit in recent times. His son can still regenerate after his death. If Liu Jingsheng can do it, he may not be able to!
After getting Liu Biao's pills, Huang Zhong finally saw hope. He was in a good mood and had some recognition of Liu Biao. At least now he would call Liu Biao "Liu Shijun" fairly when he saw him, instead of being indifferent as before.
As expected, people still need some goals to strive for in life.
"Zhongxing, please inform Liu Shijun immediately that Yuan Gongdao has retreated!" Huang Zhong notified Liu Pan immediately after discovering this situation.
"What?" Liu Pan was stunned for a moment, then ran towards the bottom of the city wall with great joy, and soon the whole Jiangling City was cheering.
"What are you shouting outside..." Kuai Yue's eyes are sunken and his cheekbones are protruding. Ever since he used his spiritual talent that day, Kuai Yue has been lying here. He even needs to be fed by others to eat. He has lost a lot of weight, but Kuai Yue
Yue's spirit became extremely high, even though his head was hurting constantly.
"Master, the Yuzhou army outside has retreated!" The servant said slightly excitedly after hearing the sounds outside clearly. The constant shouts of killing recently made all the servants of the aristocratic families feel fearful, fearing that Jiangling would be broken one day. He is now
life is gone.
"The Yuzhou army retreated. I know." Kuai Yue said calmly, but he was filled with emotion in his heart. After this battle, Liu Biao would be more favored by the Kuai family, and he, Kuai Yue, would also become Liu Biao's most effective subordinate.
arms.
As for those aristocratic families who have been ordered to kill by him, they will probably not be able to continue to interfere in the situation in Jingzhou after this time. After this time, the entire Jingzhou will probably be twisted into a rope. Their strength will not decrease but increase.
"Yuan Shu has withdrawn?" Liu Biao was stunned after receiving the news, and then he was ecstatic. He had said in front of everyone that Yuan Shu would withdraw within five days. He seemed extremely confident, but Liu Biao knew very well that in fact he had no guarantee at all.
Kuai Yue, who didn't have time to tell himself the reason, had fallen into a deep sleep, but at that time he had no retreat. Five days was not only a delaying strategy, but also a trust in Kuai Yue. I didn't expect Kuai Yue's premonition to be so accurate!
"Quickly order troops and send people to pursue you!" Liu Biao wrote the document and handed it to the ordering soldiers majestically. This time he really wanted to raise the butcher's knife. He believed in Kuai Yue's judgment that killing with a borrowed knife is the right thing to do!
This kind of tail-to-tail pursuit harasses the enemy, making it unable to retreat. The only way to survive is to cut off the tail to survive. This is the favorite of all the miscellaneous soldiers who like to make meritorious deeds. The Li family, the Yin family, the Qi family and other families saw Liu Biao's documents.
After that, everyone was overjoyed. They all thought that Liu Biao was showing favor to several families, hoping to appease these families, so they all ordered private soldiers to prepare to kill Yuan Shu who had escaped.
As for the secret communication repertoire of the past few days, they have all been forgotten. The four generations and three princes, and the kindness to the family, are not as important as the military merits that are about to be obtained. In the eyes of these people now, Yuan Shu's military merits are the most powerful for them.
For help, as for the rest, forget it.
Liu Biao stood on the city gate and sneered at the tens of thousands of troops rushing out. He admired the courage of these people, but Liu Biao believed that there was no possibility of these people coming back. As long as five hundred elites were ambushed in the place that Kuai Yue pointed out,
When the time comes, there will be a blockade in front and behind, waiting for Yuan Shu's army to turn back. These are simply soldiers composed of serfs and tenants who have undergone simple military training. Even if there are tens of thousands, they will be killed in minutes!
"Huang Hansheng obeys the order!" Liu Biao turned around and said to the few people around him who had truly surrendered to him.
"Yes!" Huang Zhong hesitated for a moment, then stood up and responded with his hands in hand.
"Lead a thousand soldiers westward along the river to receive Yiling, Yangui and other cities. Yuan Shu, the guard of these cities, did not have time to replace them. He just accepted them all. You receive them all the way, and then integrate the soldiers. After arriving at Wu County, the whole army moves north.
, attack the city when encountering it, pull out the stronghold when encountering it, and approach Xiangyang!" Liu Biao was overjoyed when he saw Huang Zhong bowing his head, and then generous rewards appeared.
Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment. This kind of power surprised him. He looked up at Liu's smile on his face and sighed, "I am willing to follow my lord."
"Hahahahaha, General, you don't have to be like this. Lead your troops quickly. All the supplies and soldiers wherever you go will be mobilized by you!" Liu Biao laughed and said, not because he was willing to give Huang Zhong such great power, but because he was too
I understand that the only one who has the ability to surrender most of Nanjun in a short period of time is Huang Zhong, and Liu Biao is willing to take a gamble that he can convince Huang Zhong with his style!
"Here!" Huang Zhong clasped his fists, exuding a kind of magnanimity. He took Liu Biao's order and prepared to select soldiers to leave Jiangling and attack the cities on the west road. "You treat me as a soldier of the country, and I will repay you as a soldier of the country!"
After watching Huang Zhong leave, Liu Biao began to arrange tasks for Cai Mao, Wang Wei, and Wenpin. The Jiangxia navy in Jingzhou was reduced to pieces by Huang Zu. As for the troops in the Yangtze River that originally belonged to Cai Mao, they still exist, but because of Zhou Yu
The suppression makes it impossible to leave the port.
After all, Zhou Yu, who had absorbed the Jiangxia navy, was no weaker than Cai Hao in terms of military strength and ships. More importantly, Zhou Yu's intelligence far exceeded the limit that Cai Hao could imagine.
As for Wei Yan, he had escorted Jian Yong and Liu Yan back to Mount Tai before. As for when he would come back, he didn't know. After all, Wei Yan was not in Jingzhou's establishment.
Sun Ce, who was squatting in the valley, saw a burst of smoke from a distance, and was immediately overjoyed. Zhou Yu's guess was correct. Jingzhou would indeed pursue him, and he really made it here. Great feat! (To be continued...)
