Zhang Fei went immediately.

Liu Bei, on the other hand, was in command of the army, and he had to occupy the northern city first. .

Chapter 182

After Sun Liu's army settled in Jiangling City, they did not invade each other. Coupled with the strict orders from Zhou Yu and Liu Bei, they could be considered peaceful.

It's just that the issue of Jiangling City's ownership is difficult to solve in a short period of time.

Whether it was Zhou Yu or Liu Bei, they were reluctant to give up this important city.

So it was so stalemate.

Outside Gangneung City.

Su Chen took more than a thousand Cao Jun remnants and temporarily stationed the troops outside the North City Gate for repairs.

He took Cao Ren and the others and looked at the situation in Jiangling City from a high place.

Seeing that the flags of Sun Liu were raised in the city, Su Chen couldn't help but secretly rejoice.

really.

Neither Liu Bei nor Zhou Yu would let anyone else.

This quarrel continued, and the time was greatly delayed.

"Master Jijiu, now Jiangling City has fallen into the hands of Sun Liu. If Zhou Yu and Liu Bei reach a tacit agreement, will our army be able to retake Jiangling?"

Behind Su Chen, Cao Ren asked worriedly.

"They don't have that chance." Su Chen shook his head and said with a smile, "And Jiangling is the seat of the Southern Commandery, which is very important to Liu Bei and Zhou Yu."

"Even if the two negotiate, it will be difficult to negotiate any results in a short period of time."

"All we have to do now is wait patiently."

Su Chen said.

"What are you waiting for?" Cao Ren asked.

"Wait for Liu Bei to withdraw from Jiangling!"

Cao Ren still frowned: "Liu Bei finally settled in Jiangling, how could he leave?"

"I have my own way." Su Chen said.

"Master Jijiu, did you forget that Zhuge Liang was left in the city by us. If Liu Bei found Zhuge Liang, with Zhuge Liang's ingenuity, he would definitely persuade Sun Liu to reconcile?"

"Will it destroy the plan of Lord Jijiu at that time? If I say it, Zhuge Liang should be brought back to Xuchang and imprisoned."

Cao Ren thought in broken thoughts.

Su Chen shook his head and laughed, "If you don't leave Zhuge Liang, will you wait for Zhang Fei to lead the troops to kill him?"

"If Zhang Fei dares to kill him, we will risk Zhuge Liang's life. If we don't believe him, he will not submit." Cao Ren said fiercely.

"That Zhang Fei can also capture me. How can anyone in our army stop Zhang Fei and the thousands of troops under his command?"

Liu Bei had [-] soldiers and horses under his command, but they only had more than [-] exhausted soldiers.

If they really take Zhuge Liang along, it is estimated that when Zhang Fei arrives with the army, he will be defeated in an instant with a shock of more than [-] people.

At that time, Zhang Fei's army surrounded them, and it was impossible to escape even with wings.

All of them were surrounded by Zhang Fei, how could a Zhuge Liang threaten Zhang Fei?

It is out of this consideration.

Su Chen might as well leave Zhuge Liang in the city, so that Zhang Fei's army will not come after him.

He looked at Cao Ren and explained, "Xingba can threaten Zhang Fei, just because Zhang Fei can't take Xingba in a short time, but it's easy to deal with you and me."

"I can't take that risk."

"Besides, keeping Zhuge Liang in the city has another advantage besides stopping Liu Bei's army from chasing him."

Su Chen said.

He left Zhuge Liang, but he had no good intentions.

Zhuge Liang is such a smart person. Once he gets out of trouble, he will definitely persuade Liu Bei to withdraw his army and return to Jiangxia.

As long as Liu Bei withdraws his troops and returns to Jiangxia, there will only be more than [-] troops of Zhou Yu left in Jiangling City.

It will be easier to deal with then.

What's more, Liu Bei led the army out of the city, and with Zhuge Liang's cleverness, he would definitely use a plan and choose to take a detour.

Only he can take the plan and lie in ambush on the road, right?

After listening.

Cao Ren nodded.

He doesn't understand these things very well, anyway, he only needs to remember one thing, and everything should be done according to the instructions of Jijiu.

Time, two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

In Jiangling City, the city gate was closed, the city was still stable, and there was no turmoil.

Su Chen lay on the weeds, basking lazily in the sun.

Suddenly, a torrent appeared in the distance, Su Chen got up and looked, only to find that it was the army marching.

"Zixiao, go see if Wei Yan's reinforcements are here."

Su Chen shouted to Cao Ren next to him.

Cao Ren nodded, and immediately ordered a few scouts to inquire about the news.

After a while, Cao Ren hurried over.

"Master Jijiu, that is the Liu army of more than [-] led by Pang Tong and Zhao Yun. They should have received an order from Liu Bei, so they withdrew their troops from Yidao and settled in Jiangling."

"As for the reinforcements of Wei Yan and Cao Hong, they are about two miles away from Pang Tong's army. I have already sent people to lead them here."

Cao Ren said.

"Well." Su Chen nodded and continued to ask, "How many people are left in Wei Yan's army?"

"There are about [-] people, but [-] of them are militiamen, so there are about [-] elites." Cao Ren replied.

"enough."

Su Chen smiled.

As soon as the reinforcements arrived, he felt a lot more confident.

soon.

Pang Tong and Zhao Yun led their troops into Jiangling City, while Wei Yan and Cao Hong also came with their troops.

"I've seen Master Jijiu."

When the two saw Su Chen, they knelt down in shame.

Obviously, it was because of Zhuge Liang's trick to lure the enemy that he almost lost Yiling, which led to the current situation, which made the two very self-blame.

"If it weren't for our greed and rashness, we wouldn't have let Lord Jijiu fall into such a predicament. Even Jiangling is now in the hands of Sun Liu."

"Please punish the wine master!"

The two clasped their fists and said seriously.

"Get up first." Su Chen waved his hand and said.

Wei Yan and Cao Hong looked at each other, got up obediently, and stood in front of Su Chen, like a child who did something wrong.

"I think you two have done a good job in protecting Yiling, so I won't punish you for the time being, and now is the time to hire people, you two can be blamed for your merits later."

Su Chen said.

"Thank you, Lord Jijiu." The two hurriedly saluted.

"Okay, now that the army has arrived, listen to my arrangements." After Su Chen finished speaking, he turned to look at Gan Ning next to him, and waved.

Gan Ning came over immediately.

"Gan Ning, you will lead an army of [-] troops and leave the Yangtze River from Jiangling Ferry to intercept Sun Liu's warship."

Su Chen ordered.

"No." Gan Ning cupped his hands and nodded excitedly.

"Wei Yan, Cao Hong!" As soon as Su Chen shouted, the two immediately stepped forward and looked at Su Chen excitedly.

Su Chen immediately said:

"Wei Yan led [-] soldiers and horses to the Zhijiang River to prevent Liu Bei's army from entering the river."

"Cao Hong led [-] soldiers and horses to the main road along the way from Jiangling to Yidao to set up defenses to block Liu Jun's westward travel."

"promise."

Wei Yan and Cao Hong immediately handed over and retreated.

Su Chen looked at Huang Zhong and Zhao Ba again.

"You lead five thousand soldiers and horses to Huarong Road, and ambushed in the forest. When the remnants of Liu Bei's army escaped, you ambush and kill Liu's army."

"promise!"

The two quickly shook hands.

"Cao Ren, you lead the remaining [-] soldiers and horses to garrison here. After Liu Bei's army leaves the city, you can lead the army to cover and kill." Su Chen finally looked at Cao Ren and said.

"promise."

After everyone's arrangement was completed, Su Chen was relieved.

If Liu Bei was dealt with first, Zhou Yu would be unable to support him alone in Jiangling.

It will be a lot easier to deal with then.
