It's not that Liu Mang has never seen the scene of being besieged by tens of thousands of troops. In Kaiyang, he was surrounded by Cao Cao's 100,000 troops, but at that time the main general was Lu Bu, and there was no need for Liu Mang to do more with Lu Bu. What, now the main general is Liu Mang himself, his every move will affect the morale of the entire Wancheng, and his behavior determines the fate of the eight thousand defenders in Wancheng. .
Under the city walls are densely packed with enemies, and there are only less than 8,000 people in Wancheng, including the urban management army and Liu's private soldiers, and Wancheng is very big, really big. As the seat of Lujiang, its four walls The city wall is very high and wide, which can be said to be a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the longer the city wall is, the more places to defend.
If Liu Wei has 10,000 more defenders in his hands, he doesn't need to be afraid at all. Even if the enemy has 100,000 troops with 20,000 troops, he can completely repel them, and there is absolutely enough food and grass in Wancheng, so that the people who are full of the city There is no problem for people to eat half a year.
But now Liu Mang has less than 8,000 men, and he has too many places to defend. There is a saying in the art of war, ten is to surround them, five is to attack, and twice is to fight. The 100,000 army besieging the city has only 8,000 defenders. You can know how much pressure Liu Mang is under.
What he needs now is support, even if he fights till the end, the city cannot be broken. Once Wancheng is brought down, Lu Bu's army will have no source of food and grass. No matter how strong an army without food and grass is, it will not be able to fight. That At that time, Lu Bu was really going to be defeated. Now that the main force of Lu Bu's army is in Shucheng, Liu Mang has already sent out a plea for help. Waiting for the return of the main force of Lu Bu's army in Shucheng.
There are not many opponents of Lu Bu's army in the land battle, let alone the Jiangdong Qu, which is dominated by the navy.
"Where is the butcher Liu Mang!" Sun Cejun below began to shout, "Butcher Liu Mang, as a clan member of the Han Dynasty, you are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Lu Bu, the corrupt wolf outside the Great Wall, occupied my city, killed my people, and committed heinous crimes. Now the teacher is not even fast enough to bind himself, roll down the tower and surrender, so that my lord can still look around on His Majesty Wait! Do you want to wait for my army to break through the city and cut off your head!" A scribe came out with no books or manuscripts, and he opened his mouth and talked eloquently.
Surrender yourself? Are you kidding me? Not to mention that Lu Bu's army and Sun Ce's army have become mortal enemies, even in an ordinary attack, no one can capture a city without a single soldier, and Liu Mang can really survive if he surrenders! You can tell by looking at the two heads hanging above Wancheng, one is the head of Zhou Cheng, the nephew of Zhou Yu, the number two figure in the Jiangdong Army, the other is Zhou Tai, a general under Sun Ce, and both were killed by Liu Mang Even if Sun Ce wanted to bypass him, his subordinates would not agree, not to mention that Sun Ce's dead wife was still in Wancheng.
"Who are you!" Liu Mang asked, looking at this eloquent scribe.
"I am Lu Su Lu Zijing, His Royal Highness the King of Shu, come down to the city and surrender! I have a hundred thousand soldiers, and you only have a mere few thousand soldiers and horses. What are you fighting for? Instead of waiting until the city is destroyed, it is better to sacrifice the city of Wan now. My lord, Sun Ce, will surely keep you safe, send you back to Xudu, and govern the country with His Majesty!"
"Lu Su?" Liu Mang saw another historical celebrity, Lu Su, Lu Zijing, a native of Dongcheng County, Linhuai County, an outstanding strategist and diplomat in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Born in a gentry family; lost his father when he was young, and was raised by his grandmother. He is burly in appearance, bold in personality, likes to read, rides and shoots well. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he saw that the court was fatuous, the officials were corrupt, and the society was in turmoil, so he often summoned young people from the village to practice martial arts. He also generously donated money, which won the admiration of the villagers. At that time, Zhou Yu was the head of the nest and asked Lu Su for help due to lack of food. Lu Su generously donated a warehouse of 3,000 Dendrobium grain to Zhou Yu. From then on, the two became friends and conspired for great things.
He is intimidating! This is forcing Liu Mang to a dead end! This Lu Su really deserves to be an honest man. Liu Mang surrendered. Whether Sun Ce hurt Liu Mang is two things. As far as Lu Su said, sending Liu Mang to Xudu is a road of no return. ? As soon as he arrived in Xudu, Cao Cao would be able to take down Liu Mang. Compared with Jiangdong Sun Ce, Cao Cao in Xudu hated Liu Mang no less than Sun Ce.
Without Liu Mang, he would have captured Lu Bu and obtained Diao Chan long ago, how could he have almost lost his life in Xiapi, how could Kaiyang City have been humiliated by Liu Wei in public, how could half of the tiger and leopard riders have been wiped out , Generals Cao Chun and Li Dian fought hard and died.
Surrender is death, do not surrender or die! This Lu Su will really persuade him to surrender.
"Lu Zijing, let me ask you if you are a man of the people!" Liu Mang didn't want to bully the honest man, but now he had to speak up, because the Liu family's private soldiers in the city were a little shaken, and there was no need to fight if they surrendered Bar! Fighting requires the dead, and the densely packed enemies below make people's scalp numb ten times, it's a panic for everyone.
"Huh?!" Lu Su frowned, wondering what the King of Shu wanted to say. Although he didn't understand, Lu Su nodded and answered yes! Although it is a troubled time now, the prestige of the Han Dynasty is still there, so although those princes with real power don't take the Emperor Han seriously, they honestly call them Hanchens. The 800-year-old Han Dynasty's reputation is not just for fun Only Yuan Gonglu, whose mind was lost by greed, became guilty and proclaimed himself emperor directly. Then the ending is certain, that is, they will attack them in groups, and in the end they can only be defeated.
"Then let me ask you again, does Wancheng belong to Lujiang County?! Does this Lujiang County belong to Yangzhou!" Liu Mang asked again.
"Yes!" Wancheng has been the seat of Lujiang since Lukang, and Lujiang County belongs to the entire Yangzhou.
"Okay! Lu Su Lu Zijing, you seem to have forgotten that this king not only has the throne given by His Majesty, but also the position of General Conquering the South, not to mention this Yangzhou, even Yuzhou, Jingzhou and Yizhou are all in my territory! Why do you call this place the city of your lord! What kind of face do you say to kill your people! Is it the land of the king in the world, I am the king of Han and Shu, and I am the guardian of your majesty. This Wancheng is under my rule! Your lord is just a mere Kuaiji prefect, it’s fine if you don’t kneel down when you see this king, but you still want to commit crimes? Seriously treat my big man’s law as nothing!"
Well! Lu Su used righteousness to suppress Liu Mang, expecting Liu Mang to surrender, but was defeated by Liu Mang. Didn't you, Lu Su, admit that you are a man of the people? Didn't you, Lu Su, obey the Han Dynasty? Now the king of the Han Dynasty, the general who was appointed by the Emperor Han to conquer the South is here, not to mention the mere Wancheng, even the whole Yangzhou is under the rule of Liu Mang, what else can you say about Lu Su! Are you dissatisfied with the imperial court and want to rebel!
To be honest, the Emperor Han of the Han Dynasty has no authority at present. The princes everywhere are yin and yang. Except for the governor of the state, other official positions are determined by the princes themselves. How can you pay attention to your Emperor Han? If the Emperor Han is useful , Then Cao Cao doesn't need to raise troops to conquer, just let Emperor Han issue an imperial decree, right
Of course, this is just an unspoken rule. On the surface, he still respects the Han family. Liu Mang is now playing this kind of fairness and making himself a loyal minister of the Han family who is dedicated to the big man. You really have nothing to do with him.
General Zhengnan is one of the four generals, only under the general of chariots and riders. It is really true, but the figure who commands the four continents
"You!" Lu Su is really not a good debater. Lu Su's strategy tends to be prudent. Originally, Lu Su succeeded Zhou Yu as the governor of Eastern Wu. lose.
"The king of Shu has lost his virtue, so he needs to be rectified by his ministers! I'm talking about His Royal Highness the King of Shu!" A familiar voice came from the army.
"Sun Ce!" Liu Mang narrowed his eyes, and the one with phoenix wings and rosy crown who walked out of the battle was Sun Ce who had a banquet with Liu Mang!
"His Royal Highness the King of Shu doesn't know that General Su Fei is still safe!" Sun Ce smiled and looked at Liu Mang on the tower.
"Su Fei!" Liu Mang felt a pain in his heart, he was a handsome sailor, just like that was abolished by Sun Ce, man! Human pig! How can you get rid of such a hand.
"Don't bother General Sun Ce, but the taste of the meatloaf is not bad!" Liu Mang knew that now was not the time to be sad, what he wanted was to avenge Su Fei, and I, Liu Mang, would definitely eat the 100,000 troops.
"Huh, His Royal Highness the King of Shu, your father-in-law thought of me in Lujiang, and offered you several cars of jewels. I, Sun Ce, will not take any money to let you spend it safely. Not only that, but also let the passing cities prepare food, grass and hot food for your army. On the wedding night I even invite you to celebrate together, but how did you treat me, Sun Ce, by the military of Bingzhou? You seized my Wancheng, killed my wife and general, and even caused the entire Wancheng to be devastated. There are thousands of households. How can you do it, His Royal Highness? Go, those are the people of my big man!" Sun Ce was upright, and in his mouth, Lu Bu and Liu Mang were ungrateful villains, who didn't want to repay their kindness, and even seized their cities and killed their generals and Mrs.
If it weren't for the people who knew the scene, they would really be confused by Sun Ce.
"Sun Bofu, when did you become so hypocritical!" Liu Mang showed disdain, "Why didn't our army avenge you after crossing your Lujiang River! Half of Jiangxia above Huangzhou is worth less than your thousands of stones of food and grass ? As for killing your general? You mean that!"
Liu Mang waved the long sword in his hand, and a head hanging on the city wall fell to the ground. The city wall was three feet long, and a thing made of meat fell to the ground and immediately turned into mud and burst open. Assassinating someone else's family is really a big deal, a big deal! Only General Sun Ce is willing to do it!"
It is true that Sun Ce regretted it. It is not so easy to get a martial arts master. Each one is like a treasure. He can be the leader of an army and also the courage of an army. The army led by a martial arts master is a great advantage. An existence whose sword can pierce the enemy's heart.
For example, Gongsun Zan's Baima Congyi originally had the existence of Zhao Yun. Under Zhao Yun's leadership, he was invincible and unstoppable in front of him. Later, Zhao Yun was sent to Qingzhou by Gongsun Zan. The soldiers and the first boarded the camp and returned with hatred.
Sun Ce is regretful or sad, so one person is furious.
"Son Liu Mang, if you have the guts, come down and fight me, Jiang Qin, for 300 rounds, and I will take your head off to honor my elder brother!" Looking at Liu Mang on the city wall, he scolded.
"Jiang Qin!" Okay! The enemies are all here, you are the one who caused General Su Fei to be like this! Even if Jiang Qin doesn't come to look for Liu Mang, Liu Mang will dig Jiang Qin out. Let's use your head to pay homage to General Su Fei today.
"Where is Huang Zhong!" Liu Mang stared at the scolding person below.
"The last general is here!" Huang Zhong stepped forward, clasping his fists.
"Old General Huang, the yelling in the city is the chief culprit who killed General Su Fei. I want you to bring two thousand city management soldiers and give me the first battle to take the head of this bandit!"
"The last general takes orders!" Huang Zhong and Su Fei also had a very good relationship, knowing that the man named Jiang Qin below was the murderer who killed Su Fei.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The war drums started to beat, and the battalion in Wancheng slowly opened up. First there were giant shield soldiers, then spearmen, archers, and the remaining dozens of cavalry were sent out by Liu Mang to ask for help. up.
"Are you ready to go out for a field battle?!" Sun Ce looked in the direction of Wancheng, "If you want to die faster, then I will help you!" Dare to go out to fight in the city, this Shu king Liu Mang is really an idiot looking for death.
It's true that Liu Mang went out of the city to prepare for a field battle, but that's not courting death! He is breaking the deadlock and boosting morale. He is brave enough to be a soldier. A lion can lead a group of sheep to defeat a sheep and a group of lions! why is that? Because a raging soldier will raging in a nest.
Huang Zhong is a trump card in Liu Wei's hands. He is a peak martial artist in refining gods. Except for Boss Lu, I am afraid that no one is his opponent. The first battle is the most testing existence of ancient cold weapons. Hulaoguan, why Dong Zhuo is so confident is because of Lu Bu! In the first battle, Lu Bu beheaded the enemy generals with one combination, and then he came to kill one and two to kill one pair. It can be said that the princes of the Eighteenth Route were completely frightened and frightened, so even if their strength was several times that of Dong Zhuo, they did not dare to step into it. Lei Chi took half a step.
What Liu Mang needs now is victory in the first battle. This will not only hit the morale of the opponent but also improve the morale of his own army. Less than one thousand of the five thousand private soldiers have actually been on the battlefield. The city management army dispersed to give them the sake.
There are so many enemies here that Liu Mang feels guilty looking at them, let alone those who have never been on the battlefield. Liu Mang urgently needs a victory to improve the morale of the entire army.
"Jiang Qin and Jiang Gongyi are here, the enemy will come out quickly and die!" Jiang Qin ran on his horse in front of the moat, stopped and ran, and then stopped, he was provocative.
The urban management army also formed a battle formation, and a figure came out from the battle formation on a horse.
Seeing the person coming, Jiang Qin smiled, and a look of contempt flickered on the corner of his mouth, "There is no one in Lu Bu's army! Send out this toothless veteran!" (To be continued.)
