Although Wei Ba was careful, the incident of sending prisoners out of the city still reached Lu Xun's ears. Cao Rui's reply was not here for a long time, but Lu Xun sent Lu Lan.
As soon as he saw Wei Ba, Lu Lan asked very unhappily: "Is it a matter of joining the army to defeat the alliance? Is it okay to have acquaintance with Wei?"
Before Lu Lan finished speaking, Wei Ba jumped up, splashed a glass of water on Lu Lan's face, pointed at Lu Lan's nose and cursed: "You have the nerve to say that I am going to betray the alliance?"
The remaining warm water flowed down Lu Lan's face, rinsing a thin layer of powder on his face into a ditch on the left and a ditch on the right. He looked very embarrassed, and his gentle and elegant demeanor disappeared.
When Wei Ba insulted him like this, his face suddenly seemed to be filled with blood, his eyes also glared, and he was about to retort. But it was obvious that when it comes to cursing, his skills were simply not worth mentioning compared to Wei Ba.
Before he could think about what to say, Wei Ba criticized him.
"Why did we form an alliance? It is to jointly attack Xiangyang. Everything we do is to seize Xiangyang. As long as you are not stupid, anyone can see that this is good for you, but there is no visible benefit to us.
You should be ahead of you in this way. Now, we are fighting hard and fighting hard, but you are watching the fun in peace. We have done what we should do, and we have done what we shouldn't do, too.
In order to allow you to seize Xiangyang and complete the alliance, we endured everything. As a result, we wanted to ask you for some food, and you only gave you ten days of food. After ten days, will you let us hungry
Go back to Fangling with your stomach?"
Wei Ba became more and more angry as he cursed, and he sweared directly.
"Why did I send the prisoners back? I can figure out why it's a pig. You still have the nerve to ask? **Mother, don't you want to fight anymore? If you don't want to fight, I will withdraw my troops back to Fangling immediately to avoid the cost of doing so.
Send food to say good things to you shameless grandsons." Wei Ba's spitting stars all spit on Lu Lan's face, and finally a more ruthless conclusion came: "I ** the 18th generation ancestor of the Lu family, you still
Are you embarrassed to say that I will betray the alliance? Do you believe it or not, I will slap you two big ears?"
Wei Ba's words were like a cannon, making Lu Lan blush with his face, and those last few swear words made Lu Lan speechless. Wei Ba had no chance to explain Lu Lan at all, and he pointed at Lu Lan's nose angrily.
He said, "Without two days, you will not send the food I want as much as possible, I will immediately withdraw my troops back to Fangling." After that, he bombed Lu Lan without waiting for Lu Lan to refute.
Lu Lan was in a mess. He originally came to question Wei Ba in a fierce manner, but he was scolded by Wei Ba so much that he was bleeding. Until he returned to the camp in a dizzy manner, he did not understand the situation, even he was
I don’t know how to leave Fancheng.
Facing Lu Lan who was incoherent, Lu Xun took a lot of talk to find out what happened. He pondered for a long time, and the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.
Lu Xun couldn't say anything unusual about Wei Ba. He sent back the disabled prisoners of Wei's army due to food shortage. It seems that there is no problem in negotiating with the Wei army to delay time, but Lu Xun still feels uneasy. He always feels that Wei Ba is very
It is possible that he is playing tricks again. For safety reasons, he sent someone to send a message to Wei Ba, saying that the food would arrive soon, and on the other hand, he sent someone to remind Sun Quan, asking him to speed up and arrive in Xiangyang as early as possible to ensure that there is
Enough troops can deal with war. If you want to say a thousand things, only with enough strength will it be difficult to achieve any conspiracy and tricks.
At the same time, he strengthened his reconnaissance of the areas controlled by the Shu army in Xiangyang to prevent the Wei army from smuggling through the Han River. At this point, he was not worried about Wei Ba—although he did not believe Wei Ba very much—but
Because of the grudges between Wu and Shu, he could not hand over his back to the Shu army with confidence.
Just when Lu Xun was suspicious, the Wei army launched an attack. Sima Yi personally led an army of 20,000 to attack Fancheng, and Cao Rui personally led an army of 30,000 to set up a position in the east of Xiangyang, preparing to cross the Han River forcibly.
...
Amid the rumbling drums, the Wei army pushed various siege equipment and slowly rushed towards Fancheng.
The walls of Fancheng were not high and the moat was not very deep. Before that, Mengda filled a lot of moats when he sieges the city. Although he spent a lot of effort to dredge them, it was limited to time, manpower and material resources.
The obstacles to the Wei army are still very limited.
Looking at the Wei army approaching, Meng Da frowned: "Ziyu, do you think Sima Yi will attack Fancheng?"
Wei Ba smiled slightly: "Why, the general is afraid?"
Meng Da stroked his beard and smiled, his face a little unnatural. Of course he was not afraid of Sima Yi, but he was afraid that his losses would be too great. Although Wei Ba and Wu Yi answered to use prisoners to supplement his losses, these newly-defeated people
There is no loyalty among those who have been with him for many years. The Shu army could not occupy Fancheng after all. Since that is the case, it would be meaningless to defend Fancheng to the death. He wanted to persuade Wei Ba to withdraw from Fancheng long ago. Anyway, the goal of the Shu army has been achieved, so why bother
If you hold on here, you will only increase casualties?
"I'm not afraid, I don't think it's worth it." Meng Da looked at the busy soldiers on the city wall: "Who is not born by his parents, and it's not worth it to die here."
"If you say it's worth it, no one is worth dying here." Wei Ba leaned on the battlements, looked at the Wei army getting closer and closer under the city, and said leisurely: "A good man should expand his territory. Even if he wraps his body around, he will die as much as possible.
. Although they belong to the Han and Wei dynasties now, they are not still descendants of Yan and Huang, or the people of the great men? Brothers are fighting against each other, I am afraid that there will be many external troubles in the future."
Meng Da said for a moment. He came to remind Wei Ba that it was meaningless to guard Fancheng. Unexpectedly, Wei Ba extended it so far, which made him embarrassed to say it again. When he thought that the Han, Wei, Wu and the Three Kingdoms of the Han, Wei, Wu and not long ago, they all had them all.
He was a great man, and the people who fought with each other were probably still fellow villagers. He couldn't help but feel a little sad and sighed.
"General, you haven't returned to your hometown for a long time. You probably didn't expect how serious this situation would be." Wei Ba stood up, patted his hands, and dusted off his clothes. "North of Fengyi, there are all Hu people's pastures,
I was not seen in my Han family. Most of the Youbing people have become the territory of the Wuhuan people, the Xiongnu people, and the remnants of the Xianbei people are still wandering on the grassland. Once the vitality is restored, it will inevitably invade in large numbers. At that time, it will not only be the Great Han outside the border.
All, I'm afraid of Guanzhong..."
Wei Ba glanced at Meng Da: "The general's hometown will inevitably be stained with some fishy smell."
Meng Da frowned and shivered involuntarily. Although he was not a clan in clothing, as a Guanzhong native, the distinction between Chinese and foreigners was still deeply rooted, and the pride of the Han people was deeply rooted in his bones. When he thought of his own family, he
His hometown—even if it was a hometown where the memory was already blurred after years of separation—he still felt very uncomfortable to be ravaged by the Hu people.
"Ziyu, are you going to help the people of Wu take Xiangyang, or help the people of Wei cross the river?" Meng Da waved his hand, drove away his personal guards, stood side by side with Wei Ba, lowered his voice and asked, "If it's just
In order to severely damage the Wu people, we don’t have to fight with Sima Yi. Anyway, Fancheng can’t take it, so why don’t we withdraw earlier?”
Wei Ba shook his head: "General Meng, our ultimate goal is to make the Wei State and Wu State fight each other. If we withdraw our troops now and let the Wei army cross the river, the Wu people will inevitably retreat. Once the siege of Xiangyang is lifted, will the Wei army still pursue it?
If they want to fight to the death, they can only let the Wu people take Xiangyang first. Xiangyang is like a bone. If Sun Quan hadn't bitten it yet, facing the tiger of Wei, he might only think about it in his heart. But if he
I've bitten this bone into my mouth, are you willing to give up easily?"
Meng Da couldn't help laughing. Although Wei Ba's metaphor was vulgar, it was also vivid enough. If Sun Quan had occupied Xiangyang, he would definitely not give up easily. Wei and Wu would definitely fight fiercely at all costs.
In this way, the Shu Kingdom can achieve its ultimate goal.
He nodded in agreement and asked worriedly: "But how can we break through Xiangyang?"
"I'm considering this matter too." Wei Ba blinked and smiled, "This is to protect General Meng from Fancheng, so that I can have time to consider it. If General Meng has no confidence, then I can't do anything about it.
Now.”
Meng Da curled his lips and said with a smile: "Boy, don't be foolish in front of me. Since I have to work hard, I still refuse to owe my wife a favor, right?"
Wei Ba touched his nose awkwardly. "The general's eyes are as sharp as a torch, and he can't hide anything from the general."
Meng Da patted Wei Ba's shoulder hard: "Don't worry, don't say that Sima Yi won't really attack with all his strength. Even if he really wants to attack, I can't let him succeed easily. Last year, he hit me in Fangling.
A person caught off guard and his reputation was almost ruined. This time, I will compete with him well. Last time he was not shot to death by you, it was not because he was lucky, but because God wanted him to die in my hands
.”
Wei Ba couldn't help laughing: "Then I think the general has made meritorious service. Then the general should not forget to enjoy a glass of wine."
Meng Da was in a happy mood and laughed loudly, and Wei Ba also chuckled softly. What he was most worried about was that Meng Da refused to do his best. If Meng Da was passive and lazy to maintain his strength, he would withdraw before Lu Xun conquered Xiangyang.
Fancheng, then his plan will be greatly reduced. He said so much, but he wanted to arouse Meng Da's fighting spirit. If Meng Da still refused, he had to replace him and Wu Yi would come to guard the city.
Amid their laughter, the Wei army's crossbowmen crossed the moat, reached a hundred steps below the city, and began to shoot and suppress the city. Meng Da's face turned cold and waved his hand to order the attack. The sound of war drums suddenly exploded, and the crossbow on the city wall was on the wall.
The hand started to fight back.
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
The sound of arrows flying endlessly, the tremors of bowstrings began one after another, the battle began, and Fancheng was once again trapped in the fire of war. (To be continued. Please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!)
