Chapter 126
Huang Zu's head was actually in Liu Bei's hands.
This means that Liu Bei has captured Xiakou.
It's only been ten days since Xiakou was besieged!
Huang Zu is the number one general in Jingzhou, even if it is mixed with water, it will not be so watery, and he can't even hold Xiakou for ten days, right?
Liu Biao's brain was buzzing, his body was frozen on the horse, and he couldn't say a word.
Liu Bei said: "Liu Jingsheng, do you know how I broke through Xiakou?" "
Liu Biao relieved himself a little and said in a trembling voice: "You... How the hell did you break Natsuguchi? "
"You should have heard that Xiao Changsu, our military division, created the Xiangyang Cannon for me, which has the power to destroy the world."
"It was with this Xiangyang cannon that I broke through Xiakou City and killed Huang Zu!"
Liu Bei knew that Liu Biao would know the truth later and would take precautions, so he simply said it himself to deter Liu Biao.
"Xiang... Xiangyang cannon? "
Liu Biao suddenly remembered and asked in surprise: "Is it you who blasted Shouchun Hefei, the rumored amazing trebuchet?" "
Liu Bei sneered and was silent.
Liu Biao gasped, and a layer of cold "077" sweat leached out of his back.
He vaguely remembered that when Sun Quan came to worship him as his father-in-law, he specifically mentioned that Xiao Yuan had built a new trebuchet of the Xiangyang cannon for Liu Bei, which had the ability to destroy the city wall.
Sun Quan was extremely jealous, and repeatedly asked him to thicken the walls of various important towns in Jingzhou.
At that time, whether he was good, Huang Zu, or even the well-informed Kuai Yue, they all scoffed at this trebuchet named after Xiangyang, another state.
Unexpectedly, Sun Quan was not alarmist!
That terrifying thing actually exists.
Liu Bei also used it to break through Xiakou and kill his left and right arm, Huang Zu.
At this moment, Liu Biao regretted it, only regretted not listening to Sun Quan's reminder.
But more than that, it's unbelievable.
"That Xiao Changsu, isn't he your advisor, how can he still create such a siege weapon?"
Liu Biao didn't care about his demeanor, and asked excitedly to express the confusion in his heart.
"You underestimate Xiao Changsu too much, he is not just a mere strategist."
"He is the first strange person in the past, his ability and means are beyond your imagination, even I don't know how unfathomable he is."
"Liu Jingsheng, I, Liu Bei, have the blessing of the heavens, with the assistance of such a god and man, do you really think you can defend Jingzhou?"
Liu Bei highly admired Xiao Yuan, and he did not exaggerate at all.
He wanted to give Liu Biao one last chance, hoping to use Xiao Yuan to deter Liu Biao, so that he could recognize the reality and retreat in the face of difficulties.
After all, everyone's surname is Liu, and as a last resort, he really doesn't want Liu Biao to follow in the footsteps of Yuan Shu and Lu Bu.
Liu Bei's kindness stung Liu Biao's self-esteem.
What does it mean that you are blessed by heaven?
Do you want to say that you are destined to be the second Liu Xiu of our old Liu family?
I, the royal family of the Liu family, don't dare to boast of the Mandate of Heaven, what qualifications do you, a descendant of the grassroots Liu family, boast of the Mandate of Heaven?
"Liu Bei, you are arrogant!"
"Don't you just have that Xiao Yuan's assistance, how dare you treat me Liu Biao as a mustard!"
"Even if you get Xiakou, I still have Xiangyang Jiangling, and the four counties of Jingnan in hand, with 70,000 soldiers in hand!"
"Do you think that with just a few words from you, I, Liu Biao, will be intimidated by you and give Jingzhou to you, a mat weaver?"
"You dream!"
Liu Biao was so stimulated that he was annoyed and angry, completely ignoring the demeanor of a famous man in the world, and directly attacked Liu Bei personally.
Liu Bei's expression was calm, and he only slowly arched his hand: "I'm all I say, since you want to fight to the death, then let's talk with a sword, don't say goodbye!" "
After saying no more nonsense, he turned his horse and left.
Liu Biao looked at Liu Bei's back, his face distorted, and his eyes burned with anger.
After resentment for a long time, he snorted coldly, turned his horse and galloped away.
After a cup of tea, the Jingzhou military camp.
Liu Biao was full of anger, and his face was pale and he stepped into the big tent of the Chinese army.
"Lord, what is the result of the meeting, then Liu Bei can know the difficulty and retreat?"
Kuai Yue asked impatiently.
"Bang!"
Liu Biao slapped the desk on the desk, so angry that his beard blew wildly, but he didn't say a word.
Kuai Yue had a premonition that something was not good, and he was busy looking at Wen Ping.
"Farewell to the driver, Xiakou has fallen, and General Huang has been beheaded by Liu Bei!"
Wen Ping sighed helplessly.
Kuai Yue was taken aback: "Xiakou has only been besieged for more than ten days, how can it be broken so quickly, this is impossible!" "
Wen Ping had to silently pass by and speak gloomily.
Kuai Yue gasped and sat down.
"Xiangyang cannon?"
"There really is such a siege artifact in this world, isn't Sun Quan's reminder an exaggeration..."
Kuai Yue muttered to himself, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Alas, it was the old man who underestimated Liu Bei and Xiao Yuan, which led to today's bitter fruit..."
Liu Biao sighed faintly, and the anger on his face gradually turned into self-blame. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!) ）
Kuai Yue also regained his composure, but his face became more solemn, and he arched his hand:
"My lord, the matter has come to this, and now is not the time to regret it."
"Xiakou has been lost, Liu Bei's army has entered the hinterland of my Jingzhou, we must take immediate action to make amends!"
Liu Biao's body was shocked, and he hurriedly said: "How should the old man make up for the loss, please also make it clear." "
"After Liu Bei breaks through Xiakou, he will definitely trace the west of the Yangtze River, go straight to Jiangling, block the Yangtze River, and cut off the four counties of Jingnan!"
"Huang Zu's navy was annihilated, and Cai Deqi's 5,000 navy army alone was no longer enough to stop Liu Bei's westward advance, and it was a foregone conclusion that the four counties of Jingnan would be cut off."
"So for today's plan, I can only break my wrist to survive, abandon the four counties of Jingnan, and make every effort to surrender Jiangling!"
"If you hold Jiangling, then Xiangyang can be protected, Xiangyang City is here, and Nanjun is here."
"Half of the population of Jingzhou is in Nanjun, as long as the lord holds Nanjun, even if the rest of the counties are lost, this Jingzhou is still the lord's!"
Kuai Yue came to the map and pointed to a plan.
Liu Biao couldn't stop nodding, thinking deeply 0 ...
"So the more I think that the lord should leave about 20,000 soldiers and horses to guard Xiangyang to ensure that the rear is not lost."
"The lord personally led 10,000 infantry troops to Jiangling, and met with the 5,000 sailors of Cai Deqi's retreat, plus the 5,000 soldiers and horses left behind in Jiangling, and 20,000 soldiers and horses."
"At the same time, Liu Pan was left to retreat to Changsha County, and Huang Hansheng led 10,000 Jingnan County to quickly cross the river and come to Jiangling to strengthen the defense."
"In this way, the lord will be able to gather 30,000 soldiers and horses in Gangneung City."
"Jiangling City has enough grain and grass, if the lord requisitions the people, urgently thickens the city wall, and guards against Liu Bei's Xiangyang cannon, plus 30,000 elites, it is enough to wait for work and have a fierce battle with Liu Bei!"
"As long as we fight with Liu Bei for a few months, Yuan Benchu will definitely move south, and Yanzhou and Xuzhou will not be able to escape the iron hooves of the Yuan family."
"Xuzhou is lost, Liu Bei has been attacking Jiangling for a long time, so he can only retreat and save Xuzhou in the north."
"If the lord takes advantage of the victory to pursue again, why worry about not recovering the lost territory!"
Kuai Yue gushed endlessly, and offered Liu Biao a strategy to defend against the enemy with a snap of his fingers.
Liu Biao stood in front of the map, thoughts flying in his mind, and his face gradually reappeared the confident bearing that the lord of Jingzhou should have.
"Okay, good, Xenomorph is really the old man's son!"
"According to your plan, we will join Liu Bei under Jiangling City and wait for Yuan Shao to wave his army to the Southern Expedition!"
...
The next day, Liu Biao withdrew from the army.
Two days later, Liu Bei left Jiang Qin to guard the tomb and led his army back to Xiakou.
At this moment, this Jiangxia County Governance Office has already raised his Liu character banner in four gates.
Inside the county hall.
Xiao Yuan has prepared a banquet to wash the dust for Liu Bei.
"The military division's Xiangyang cannon showed its might again, and gave that Liu Jingsheng a slap in the head!"
Liu Bei was in high spirits, so he told him about the meeting with Liu Biao.
"Liu Biao was bitten by a snake once, and he was afraid of the well rope for ten years, and it is estimated that he has suffered such a big loss, and he will definitely go back to infrastructure 1.1."
Xiao Yuan sneered.
"Ki... Infrastructure? "
"It means frantically mobilizing the people's power and thickening the city wall."
Liu Bei let out an "oh", thinking that the words of this later generation are really concise and to the point, and just two words can have such a rich meaning.
"Strategist, how does it feel like to be the commander of the three armies for the first time?"
Liu Bei smiled and poured Xiao Yuan a glass of wine himself.
"Don't mention it, my lord, I'm too tired to be a commander, I have to take care of everything, I don't know how many hairs have fallen out in the past two days."
"Such a painstaking thing, in the future, the lord himself will come, I will still be my adviser, and professional things should be left to professional people."
Xiao Yuan also added a glass of wine to Lao Liu, and while complaining, he quietly praised Lao Liu.
Liu Bei laughed.
The two raised their glasses and drank them all.
After a few glasses of wine, Liu Bei happily asked: "Strategist, this summer mouth has been broken, how should we use the troops next?" "
"Don't you even think about it?"
Xiao Yuan's wine glass pointed to the west, and said proudly: "The army advances by land and water, directly takes Jiangling, and blocks the Yangtze River!" "。
