Back to the Three Kingdoms

At this moment, the mountains and the earth shook between the heaven and the earth, and a loud noise even more terrifying than thunder shook the mountains, rivers and the earth! Xu Sheng was shocked to find that the power of that weapon was dozens of times more powerful than before! Before the thought was finished, the Jiangdong army position seemed to have been hit by a storm, and the solid fence was instantly torn apart and flying all over the sky, mixed with the flesh and blood of the human body! The rigorous line of defense of the Jiangdong Army was instantly destroyed by fierce artillery fire!

The Jiangdong Army was so dizzy by the fierce artillery fire that the ground seemed to tremble before it recovered! An officer couldn't help but look out of the camp, his face turned pale, and he saw that countless chariots were rushing from the sky with smoke and dust. The mighty and mighty imposing manner was like a big wave swept in!

The officer exclaimed in surprise: "The enemy!"

The entire Jiangdong Army panicked, and many officers and soldiers turned and fled before they even took the battle! Xu Sheng roared sharply, but how could it be restrained! In an instant, a torrent of iron and steel made up of armored chariots rushed in from the fence that had been destroyed, like a wave breaking through a dam, unstoppable!

Xu Sheng and others roared and fought bravely, only to see a torrent of iron and steel swept past, Jiangdong army generals were like sorghum in the wave of good things, falling down in pieces, and flying flesh and blood!

Xu Sheng was also brave. He swung his sword and suddenly saw the rushing chariot and horse. The chariot suddenly stopped, and then the whole chariot spun forward and flew into the air, and finally fell heavily. On the ground! Xu Sheng destroyed three chariots in a row, and suddenly became a god! The morale of Jiangdong generals was boosted, and they all fought back! I saw flesh and blood flying across the battlefield, and the torrent of rolling steel seemed to be contained by the opponent!

At this moment, a powerful Qin army general, Pegasus, went straight in and rushed in front of Xu Sheng in a blink of an eye, and shouted sharply: "Don't be arrogant! Watch me take your head!"

Xu Sheng saw an enemy general riding his horse straight up, aggressively, and immediately roared and swung his sword to greet him! In a blink of an eye, the two sides met. Xu Sheng brandished a broadsword to cut down the opponent's horse. However, the opponent's speed was faster. Seeing a head suddenly flying up, blood and water filled the sky, Xu Sheng flipped backwards and fell down!

The surge that Jiangdong Army had just bulged up instantly disintegrated, and under the fierce impact of the Qin Army's armored chariot, it was rushed to the ground and defeated like a mountain!

Huang Gai, who was leading the retreat of the main force, suddenly received an emergency report from the rear saying that the Qin army suddenly launched a rush and the Changbanpo line of defense fell, and Xu Sheng was killed! Huang Gai was shocked. Without waiting for Huang Gai to take countermeasures, the chariot and cavalry troops of the Qin Army caught up and attacked swiftly! I saw cavalry like a tide, chariots like a mountain, overwhelmingly overwhelming! The Jiangdong Army hurriedly resisted, and was killed so that the corpse was bloodied and flew back again and again, and the whole army shook!

Huang Gai led the army to fight desperately, and then retreated. Seeing that the army was flooded by the enemy's iron hooves and chariots, he couldn't help but become mad, but there was no way!

The armies of both sides retreated while fighting, rushing and killing. By the evening, corpses were seen everywhere in the field. Huang Gai led the remnants to retreat into the gourd mouth, and the Qin army approached the gourd mouth and temporarily stopped the offensive.

Huang Gai immediately counted the losses and found that there were only less than 30,000 soldiers and horses who followed him back into the gourd. Most of the army lost, and the morale of everyone was low. Everyone's fighting spirit was eliminated by the fierce attack just now. It's gone!

On the one hand, Huang Gai sent people to rush to Jiangdong, and on the other hand, he sent people to Baidi City to ask for help from Liu Bei. At the same time, relying on the steep terrain of Hulukou to build a line of defense, he was ready to stand by for help.

Liu Bei received Huang Gai's request for help and couldn't help but hesitate. The situation changed so fast that he was a little caught off guard.

Zhang Song anxiously said to Liu Bei: "Master, Nanjun has been occupied by the Qin army, and Huang Gai is like a summer dew. No one can save the day. The situation is completely different from what we had previously expected. Without the Huang Gai army, I am afraid that our army will deal with the Qin army independently! For the sake of this plan, we should quickly retreat to central Sichuan for self-defense!"

Xu Shu couldn't help but said angrily: "It's because you waited for pedantic literati to disturb the lord, that would happen! If our army would attack the Qin army early, it will be a different situation today!"

Zhang Song snorted coldly, and said mockingly: "If the lord listens to you, it will indeed be a different situation, but our army is in a desperate situation!" Xu Shu was very annoyed, pointing to Zhang Song and cursing: "You This nonsense traitor!"

Zhang Song ignored Xu Shu, clasped his fist and bowed to Liu Bei: "Thanks to the master's wiseness, our army will not be destroyed!" Liu Bei felt this in his heart when he heard this.

Xu Shu didn’t want to entangle with the villain Zhang Song, and hurriedly clasped his fist towards Liu Bei: “Master, if Jingzhou is occupied by the Qin army at this time, it will be difficult for us to seize Jingzhou again! And once Jingzhou is occupied, we in Sichuan will definitely be taken. In isolation, if Chen Lang uses troops against us in the next step, the consequences will be unimaginable!" Liu Bei couldn't help frowning.

Zhang Song said unhappily: "Don't be sensational. We are in the mountains and rivers in the middle of Sichuan. It is difficult for the Qin army to penetrate into the middle of Sichuan. We can imitate the Han Gaozu of the year and sit in Xichuan to watch the changes in the situation in the Central Plains. When Chen Lang fought hard with the other princes, then seize the opportunity to advance eastward! Isn't this better than the hasty battle with the Qin army now?"

Liu Bei couldn't help but nodded.

Xu Shu showed a look of contempt, and said: "What you said seems reasonable, but you have not seen the development of the world at all. The situation as it is today has formed a situation where Chen Lang, Cao Cao and other vassals confronted each other. At present, Yuan Shao and Sun Jian are attacking from the north to the south. Cao Cao, Cao Cao can be said to be in danger, and defeat is only a matter of time. Chen Lang attacked Jingzhou, the purpose is obviously to encircle Wei and save Zhao, if we can resist the Qin army, then Sun Jian can free up to attack Cao Cao. After Cao Cao is destroyed, Chen Lang It’s hard to sing alone, and defeat is only a matter of time. But if we retreat into Xichuan now, not only will the entire Jingzhou smoothly fall into the hands of the Qin army, but also after the Qin army will occupy Jingzhou, it will definitely threaten Jiangdong. Sun Jian must stop attacking at this time. Shouchun, the army rushed back to help. At that time, the situation of North and South flanking Cao Cao disappeared. Although Yuan Shao was strong, I expected that Cao Cao would be impossible to destroy with his family, and it might even be possible that Cao Cao seized the opportunity to fight back. It is not impossible that the results will be paid off! At that time, the whole world will be in a confrontational situation, and we Xichuan will be the weakest, and the situation will be the most disadvantaged!"

Xu Shu's words made everyone speechless, and Liu Bei frowned tightly.

Xu Shuchao Liu Bei clasped his fist and said: "Master! Although it is difficult to resist the Qin army, it is not impossible! The subordinates have a plan to not only resist the Qin army, but also to seize Jingzhou!"

Liu Bei's eyes lit up immediately, and he asked anxiously: "Will the plan be settled?"

Xu Shu said: "Qin Jun's current attention is on Huang Gai who retreated to the mouth of the gourd..."

Zhang Song couldn't help but sneered, and said in an angry manner: "Are you suggesting that the lord take the opportunity to raid Xiangfan? It's useless. The Qin army has cavalry guarding us in the direction of Xiangfan. We can't make a raid. Once our army takes action, The main force of the Qin army will inevitably return to aid. I'm afraid that when the surprise attack fails, the opponent's cavalry chariot will be killed by the opponent's cavalry chariot.

Liu Bei couldn't help frowning.

Xu Shu said to Liu Bei: "Master, the direction of the raid I mentioned is not Xiangfan, but Nanjun."

Everyone was taken aback, only Pang Tong smiled.

Liu Bei hurriedly asked: "Mister meant to raid South County?"

Xu Shu nodded, "According to the intelligence, although the Qin army prevented us from attacking Xiangfan, it did not prevent us from attacking Nanjun. In addition, the Qin army who occupied Nanjun has already sent most of its troops to the riverside to guard. Actually, it is in the city of Nanjun. Beware of emptiness. Our army can take this opportunity and go down the river to take Nanjun! The whole situation will be reversed in Nanjun. I expect that the Qin army can only temporarily retreat to Xiangfan!"

Liu Bei was overjoyed, and nodded in praise frequently, "Cunning! Cunning!"

Zhang Song said unconvincedly: "This way, I'm afraid Jiangdong won't let it go!"

Liu Bei couldn't help but worry and looked at Xu Shu.

Xu Shu smiled and said, "The lord does not have to worry about this. We are the Nanjun captured from the Qin army, and Jiangdong is emotionally acceptable. Of course, they will naturally not give up and will send someone to ask for it. We only say that it is to recover Liu Biao. In Jingzhou, Jiangdong must have nothing to say."

Liu Bei frowned and said, "This is the truth, but what if Jiangdong doesn't listen? If we send troops to inquire about crimes, wouldn't we be the enemy?"

Xu Shu smiled and said: "The lord does not have to worry at all. Sun Jian and Zhou Yu are all aware of it. Now that the enemy is present, how can they fight with us again? I expect they will temporarily suppress this time, and everything will wait until Chen Lang is resolved. Say it again!"

Liu Beixi said: "After hearing what my husband said, I really became clear!" Then he resolutely said: "I have decided to leave 30,000 soldiers and horses to guard the city of Baidi, and the rest of the soldiers and horses will follow me down the river and take Baidi immediately. City! Zhongxing Dahan is here to do this, and I hope you will work together and don't let me down!" Everyone agreed in unison.

In the evening of the same day, Liu Bei arrived at the riverside wharf. At this time, countless rafts were gathering on the river, and more than 200,000 officers and soldiers were getting on the rafts one after another. Xu Shu and Pang Tongzheng stood in front of a boat and talked. Xu Shu asked inexplicably, "Why didn't Shi Yuan say a word during today's discussion?" Pang Tong smiled and said, "You said it well, why should I make such a fuss?"

Xu Shu looked at Pang Tong's eyes, frowned and asked, "I always feel like you haven't said anything. Why do you and I have good friends, but you want to hide it from me?"

Pang Tong smiled and said, "Yuan Zhi is too worried! I just don't think Yuan Zhi's strategy will be successful."

Xu Shu hurriedly asked, "Did Shiyuan find any problems?" Pang Tong shook his head and said, "No. I just think that facing King Qin, I'm afraid it is not so easy to succeed!"
