The Three Kingdoms Fight for the Deer

Chapter 287 Chaos in Xiangyang
Time went back to an hour ago, when Li Yuan was still discussing important military affairs, the city of Xiangyang was already in chaos, because Liu Biao was unprepared for Gan Ning's sudden entry, and he hadn't figured out what was going on. Tens of thousands of troops have poured into the city.

Gan Ning's method of attacking Xiangyang was still exactly the same as when attacking Jiangling, that is, he sent soldiers to pretend to be civilians, took the opportunity to control the city gates, and then he led the army to attack in one fell swoop. This strategy has been tried repeatedly.

Thanks to Liu Biao ignoring the defense on the south side, Gan Ning had an opportunity. The other three gates have been closed, except the south gate. Because the south gate leads to Jiangling, Liu Biao will ignore the defense on this side. From now on Looking at it, it was definitely a clever plan for Xu Shu to attack Xiangyang from behind when Xu Shu proposed a sneak attack on Jiangling. Now Gan Ning is able to attack Xiangyang without any effort because of Xu Shu's strategy.

When Liu Biao heard that Li Yuan's army had entered the city, he thought that Li Yuan had already crossed the river and breached the city gate, but when he went out, he found that was not the case at all. The northern defense had not been breached at all, and Li Yuan's army had not yet Crossing the river, then what happened to the soldiers and horses that rushed into the city?

Liu Biao hadn't figured it out yet, the city was already on fire, the surroundings were in chaos, the people were running away in a panic, and countless soldiers kept pouring in. He didn't know how many enemies there were, but he only knew that the city had become a mess, and the tranquility of the past Completely broken, they were greeted by brutal soldiers.

"Kill!" Gan Ning led the soldiers into the city. He sent people to set fire everywhere to create chaos. After all, he heard that there were many soldiers in the city. The chaos and fire in the city will also attract Li Yuan's attention, and he believes that Li Yuan has already noticed the chaos in Xiangyang City.

Before it was time for a cup of tea, Xiangyang city was already full of killing noise and flames, and scattered teams of Jingzhou troops rushed out to stop Gan Ning, but they were all easily dealt with by Gan Ning. If there were no generals to lead them, Such forces can't deal with him at all.

"My lord, it's too bad, Li Yuan's soldiers and horses are already in sight!" A soldier ran over in a panic.

"Shut up, you hit me right in front of my eyes, I can see it myself!" Liu Biao was rarely angry. Since Li Yuan attacked Jingzhou, he seemed to be a different person, especially He is easy to get angry, and he is also worried all day long, defending day and night, thinking that there is a natural moat on the Han River to rest easy, but in the end he let the enemy kill him in. Looking at the burning Xiangyang, he was already a little crazy.

"My lord! Calm down! Don't forget that we still have [-] soldiers in Xiangyang City. The enemy's strength is absolutely impossible to outnumber us. We still have a chance to fight back, so don't give up!" Kuai Liang shouted hoarsely beside Liu Biao. Roaring, trying to calm down Liu Biao, he couldn't remember how long he hadn't tried to speak so loudly.

Cai Mao, Huang Zu, Yi Ji and others all looked at Liu Biao and Kuai Yue in panic, the crazy Liu Biao, and the hoarse Kuai Yue. In a group, without even issuing an effective order, the enemy who fell from the sky has completely beaten them.

"My lord! It's up to you whether the hundreds of thousands of people in Xiangyang can survive today. You must not give up!" Kuai Yue was about to burst into tears, shaking Liu Biao's shoulders vigorously with both hands.

"Zirou is right. There are hundreds of thousands of people in Xiangyang. I can't just give up." Liu Biao took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, but everyone could see that Liu Biao was really old and full of hair. His white hair was covered with wrinkles on his face. At this time, his eyes were distracted, as if he was helpless. Cai Mao and Kuai Yue glanced at each other, and they both felt a little sad. Liu Biao, who had dominated Jingzhou for decades, might not be able to support him. Living.

Seeing this, Liu Bei knew that the time had come, and he immediately stood up and said, "Liu Jingzhou, I, Liu Bei, have been taken care of by you all these years. A life will stop him, if Liu Jingzhou trusts me, then send the three of us to resist the enemy!"

"Guan Yu, Zhang Fei is willing to accompany Li Yuan to the end!" Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also knelt down and said at the same time.

Liu Biao looked at the three of them, Liu, Guan and Zhang, with expressionless faces. No one knew what he was thinking. In the end, he sighed: "Xuande, I will entrust you with an army of [-] to resist the enemy. You must drive the enemy out of Xiangyang." , can you do it?"

"I, Liu Bei, will do my best and die!" Liu Bei clasped his fists, and then took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to the barracks.

After Liu Bei walked away, Cai Mao said: "Master, let Liu Bei control so many soldiers and horses in Xiangyang City, I am afraid..."

"I know Liu Bei's ambition," Liu Biao interrupted Cai Mao, "but now that the enemy is at hand, we must rely on Liu Bei's hand to fight against Li Yuan. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are brave generals who have won the three armies. With them Only then will it be possible to defeat this sneak attacking enemy army."

Although Liu Biao is old, he is not foolish. He knows how capable Cai Mao is. It is okay to let Cai Mao defend the city for a while. If Cai Mao leads troops to fight the enemy, he will definitely be defeated. What's more, the enemies he has to deal with are Li Yuan Ten lives are not enough to die. Since the first battle in Jiangxia, he has felt the true power of Li Yuanjun, so he asked Liu Bei to lead his troops to resist. This is the only choice.

"Wen Pin, Wang Wei, Zhang Yun, the three of you lead [-] soldiers to garrison the north, east and west gates to prevent Li Yuan from attacking the city." Liu Biao issued another order.

"It's the lord!" Wenpin, Wang Wei and Zhang Yun took orders and left.

"De Gui, Su Fei, Deng Long, Chen Jiu, the four of you lead [-] soldiers to defend the State Shepherd's Mansion, and don't be attacked by the enemy."

"Yes..." Cai Mao nodded, and then left with Su Fei and others.

"Huang Zu, go and call back all the water troops on the Han River to help defend the city."

"My lord, if we withdraw the defenses on the water, Li Yuan's army will cross the river. We can't let them come over." It was rare for Huang Zu to say a nutritious sentence.

"No need, now I don't even know how many enemies are attacking the city. If Xiangyang can't hold it, what's the point of defending Li Yuan on the water? Go ahead." Liu Biao insisted. The most important thing is to drive the enemy out of the city.

"Yes!" Huang Zu had no choice but to accept the order and leave.

"The rest of the people are waiting to rest in the State Shepherd's Mansion. Those who have family members can also bring them here. After all, the city is very chaotic and it's not safe anywhere." Liu Biao decided to bring his family members to the State Shepherd's Mansion.

When everyone heard the news, they all ran back home and brought their family members to the State Shepherd's Mansion. The State Shepherd's Mansion is more secure than other places with heavy guards.After finishing the arrangement, Liu Biao breathed a sigh of relief.

Half an hour later, Huang Zu had already recalled the water army to Xiangyang, but not long after that, Li Yuan's army also began to cross the river to attack the city. This day was destined to be a day of slaughter, and it would be unforgettable for the people of Xiangyang forever.
