    At this time, all the armies were exhausted and hungry. Coupled with the repeated setbacks before, most of the soldiers were unstable.  Cai Mao then ordered the soldiers to rest and go to seize houses and make food.  Cai Mao and the generals rested in the Yamen.

    After the first update, a sudden strong wind came.  The guard sergeant flew to report the fire.  The generals were shocked again, thinking it was Zhuge Liang's plan again.  Cai Mao was calm, thinking that his army was powerful, how could Liu Bei dare to invade rashly, so he talked to the generals.

    "This must be the result of careless cooking by the soldiers in the city. Don't be alarmed."

    Before he could finish talking, several reports were sent out one after another, and the west, south, and north gates were all on fire.  When Cai Mao urgently ordered the generals to mount their horses, the entire Xinye City was filled with flames, and the top and bottom were red and glowing.

    I saw rounds of rockets flying from the west, south, and north gates, hitting the surrounding houses, and immediately bursting into flames.  The Jingzhou troops inside the house fled for their lives in a hurry, and one round after another of shrill screams shook the entire Xinye City.

    It is the fire of night, like the fire of hell, burning in the world and taking away countless lives.  Cai Mao was so frightened that his face turned pale and his mind was in a state of confusion. He immediately led his generals to run away looking for a way out, bursting into smoke and fire.  There were countless people around, and soldiers from each team were scrambling to get out of this hell on earth.  Cai Mao was crazy and ordered his troops to clear the way. He would cut down anyone he saw and kill the blood.  On the way, I heard that there was no fire at the east gate, so I hurried out of the east gate.

    The soldiers trampled on each other, and countless people died.  Cai Mao and other generals fought against their own comrades in the army. They were covered in blood and were able to escape the fire.  Just when his mind was a little calmer, a sudden shout came from behind.  Hua Xiong led five hundred elite soldiers and rushed out to fight in a melee.  Hua Xiong danced his Dragon-Breaking Sword so tightly that it seemed as if he was in a deserted place, rushing left and right, flying towards Cai Mao to kill him.

    "Cai Degui, come and accept your fate!!!"

    Hua Xiong¡¯s eyes widened and his brows stood upright. The firelight made him look like a hellish Shura, flying at the rebels with his horse and sword, and he was about to kill him before he saw it.  At this time, Cai Mao was so frightened that he drew his horse and fled.  Liu Xian and Deng Yi led their troops to resist and killed Hua Xiong.  Hua Xiong slashed his sword and cut through the crowd, rushing to Liu Xian first.  Unexpectedly, Hua Xiong raised his knife and cut his head open, causing his body to fall off the horse.  Hua Xiong's eyes were horrified and he shot at Deng Yi.  Deng Yi didn't dare to offend his power, so he immediately fled.  Hua Xiong chased after him, but was blocked by Jingzhou troops desperately.  Five hundred elite soldiers rushed behind Hua Xiong. At this time, the people of Jingzhou were exhausted and mentally weak. There were many people but chaos. The opponents of Hua Xiong and his tiger and wolf soldiers were immediately killed one after another.  The defeated troops all fled for their lives, but who was willing to turn around and fight.

    Cai Mao's army was short of men and horses, and most of the sergeants were exhausted. They escaped from a slope outside the city.  Suddenly, two cannons rang out, and Chen Shi led an army to the left to kill, while Liu Feng led an army to the right to rush forward and block the slope.  When Jingzhou soldiers and horses saw another ambush, they lost all will to fight and their morale dropped to the bottom as if they were being ambushed from all sides.  Chen Shi and Liu Feng fought bravely, and Jingzhou's troops were defeated like a mountain. Chen Shi was the fastest to kill, and more than a dozen Jingzhou soldiers were under his sharp sword.  Liu Feng was not inferior. He danced with a spear with one arm and killed seven or eight Jingzhou soldiers.  When the surrounding Jingzhou soldiers saw this, they could no longer control their fear and fled in all directions regardless of their orders.

    Seeing this, Cai Hao quickly ordered his troops to turn around and leave.  At this moment, Hua Xiong led his troops to kill them quickly.  When Cai Mao saw Hua Xiong, he suddenly felt a cold air rushing from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He felt that he had been cornered and could not fly!

    At this moment, a group of soldiers around Cai Hao suddenly rushed out bravely.  A general in the team hissed at Cai Mao.

    "Clan leader, run away quickly!!! As long as you can save your life, Jingzhou will belong to me, the Cai family!!!"

    It turns out that this group of soldiers are all members of the Cai clan. In order to repay the prosperity of the family, these soldiers are willing to sacrifice even if they know that they will die.  Hundreds of Cai's dead soldiers swarmed towards Hua Xiong.  Hua Xiong slashed wildly with his sword, but for a moment he couldn't break through.  When Cai Mao saw this, he hurriedly rode away and was able to escape with the support of a group of soldiers and horses.

    Cai Mao fled all the way. No matter where he fled, he was afraid of ambushes. Regardless of his fatigue and life, he ran straight out of the new field. It was difficult for his troops to catch up, and most of them got lost.  When Cai Mao left the new field realm, he was unable to escape anymore and rested at a mountain pass.

    The generals briefly ordered their troops and horses. The mighty 80,000 army that Cai Mao led in the past now only had less than 20,000 left.  The rest of the tribe was either burned to death by the fire in Xinye City or killed by Liu Jun's troops. Most of the rest were captured or lost.

    At this time, there was a lot of discussion among the troops, and a soldier reported to Cai Mao, saying that Zhuge Liang had made a conclusion three days ago, saying that Cai Mao would definitely be defeated and perished. When the soldiers heard this, they all marveled at his miracle and regarded him as a god.  God man.

    After Cai Mao heard this, blood suddenly surged into his heart, and he drank hysterically.

    "Zhuge Villager, how dare you do this!!!! If I don't kill you, I won't return to Jingzhou!!!"

    After Cai Mao finished drinking, he spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground unconscious.  The generals were frightened and rushed to rescue him.  One night passed, Cai Mao woke up leisurely, and all the generalsI advise you to return to Jingzhou first and then make plans.

    Cai Mao's eyes were filled with hatred, and he gritted his teeth and shouted angrily.

    "No! I have an oath to kill the Zhuge villagers, otherwise I will never return to Jingzhou. I still have 20,000 soldiers and horses in Xiangyang County. After I obtain Xiangyang soldiers and horses, I will reorganize them and then go to Fancheng to kill  , I will definitely take the head of that Zhuge villager!"

    When Fu Xun heard this, his mind raced with thoughts, and he quickly raised his hands and admonished him.

    "General, wait a minute, let's listen to what Fu has to say. Now Liu Bei has abandoned Xinye and moved all the people from Xinye into Fancheng. If I join forces with Xiangyang's troops and advance in, all the people in the two counties will be defeated. The reason why Liu Bei is sure to win every battle is because  Rely on Zhuge's plan. Zhuge Kongming is a man who loves the people, so it is better to recruit Liu Bei first. If Liu Bei refuses to surrender, Zhuge Liang will definitely be dissatisfied if he abandons the people and surrenders. The general can first comfort him and seal him off.  Give Zhuge Liang an important position to drive a wedge between Liu and Zhuge. If they are separated, their power will be destroyed!"

    Cai Mao's eyes widened and his expression changed continuously. Seeing that the soldiers around him were still frightened, he had no choice but to suppress the anger and hatred in his heart and asked Fu Xun's words again.

    "Who can be the envoy?"

    Fu Xun Mao then recommended himself, and Cai Mao ordered him to be the envoy.  Fu Xun took the order and left, riding a fast horse with several servants, and rushed to Fancheng at starry night.  The next night, when Liu Bei heard that Fu Xun had come to see him, he seemed to have expected it and was not surprised.  In fact, Zhuge Liang had already predicted this and had already informed Liu Bei.  Liu Bei has also become accustomed to Zhuge Liang's magic.  Immediately Liu Bei met Fu Xun. After Fu Xun finished the ceremony, he opened his mouth and said.

    "Although the emperor's uncle defeated our army in the previous campaign, there were still 30,000 soldiers and horses in Xiangyang and 30,000 troops in Jingzhou. The defeat of the previous campaign was all due to contempt for Zhuge's plan. Now everyone in our army knows that Zhuge is powerful, so we send troops again  , we must act cautiously. Our army will be able to defeat Fancheng immediately, and we will pity the lives of the people. The emperor's uncle is unparalleled in his kindness and love for the people. If he is willing to surrender, General Cai can promise to be exempted from guilt and rewarded with a title.  , the soldiers and civilians were killed together!¡±

    Fu Xun spoke with firmness and righteousness, and secretly looked at Liu Bei's face.  Liu Bei seemed to be indifferent, his expression unmoved.  Liu Bei didn't answer, Zhuge Liang covered his hands and laughed.

    "Hahaha! Good! Good! Good! Mr. Fu's words clearly show that General Cai has a broad mind and is truly a benevolent and righteous man!"

    Fu Xun frowned. He couldn't hear Zhuge Liang's admiration at all. Instead, he felt a bit sarcastic.  Fu Xun knew how wise Zhuge Liang was and did not want to get entangled with him. He turned to look at Liu Bei and bowed before asking again.

    "I don't know what the emperor's uncle wants. There are now people from two counties gathered in Fancheng. Their lives depend on the emperor's uncle's thoughts."

    Liu Bei smiled lightly, then glanced at Zhuge Liang and said.

    "I, Liu Xuande, have been wandering all my life and have been framed by countless traitors. I am still able to survive today, all because of Kong Ming's wisdom. Kong Ming, you can make the decision for me. Whether I surrender or not is entirely up to you!"

    When Fu Xun heard this, his expression suddenly changed.  Liu Bei trusted Zhuge Liang so much that even such a major decision was left to Zhuge Liang.  It can be seen that the relationship between the two is extraordinary, far beyond that of ordinary monarchs and ministers.  Zhuge Liang humbly bowed his hands, thanked Liu Bei first, and then said slowly to Fu Xun with a faint smile.

    "Fu Caopu might as well come with Liang, and we will know immediately whether our Lord will surrender or not."

    Seeing how mysterious Zhuge Liang was, Fu Xun's heart tightened. Just when he was hesitating, Zhuge Liang had already stepped out.  Fu Xun saw this and quickly followed him.  Zhuge Liang took Fu Xun to the county government office. Suddenly, he held a drum hammer and beat the trumpet hard.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Boom!  !  Boom!  !  !

    With such a rhythm, the tong drum is played three times.  After hearing the sound, many people came and gathered outside the county government office, looking at each other.  Fu Xun was surprised again when he saw the crowds of people outside the door.  Zhuge Liang concentrated his attention and shouted loudly.

    "Dear fellow villagers! Although our army defeated General Cai's army last time, there are still 60,000 soldiers and horses in Jingzhou. If it overturns and attacks, Fancheng will be unable to stand alone. Most of them will be trampled by General Cai's army and razed to the ground. Immediately, everyone.  The villagers and elders will suffer a great calamity. How can my lord, Uncle Liu, watch the people suffer, their families be destroyed, and remain indifferent.

    At the right time, General Cai sent Fu Caoyu to surrender.  There is an order!  If Liu Huangshu surrenders, he will be exempted from guilt and given a title.  If you don't surrender, both the army and the people will be killed, and both the jade and the stone will be burned!

    Fortunately, Uncle Liu Huang trusts him, and whether he surrenders or not, he will hand it over to Yu Liang.  Liang knew that the emperor's uncle was devoted to serving the people.  Liang will hand it over to you and let you decide!  "

    As soon as Zhuge Liang finished speaking, there was an uproar around him.  Fu Xun was even more surprised and dumbfounded. When he came to his senses, he suddenly noticed countless sharp and angry gazes coming towards him. Fu Xun felt as if he had been pierced by thousands of arrows.

    Immediately, a roar came out.

    "Uncle Liu is a benevolent and righteous king!!! We would rather die than surrender, and we would like to live and die together with the emperor!!!"

    "We would rather die than surrender, and would like to use the emperor's??Together we live or die together!  !  !  "

    "We would rather die than surrender, and we would rather live or die together as the emperor's uncle!!!"

    I saw a young man raising his arms and shouting angrily, and soon dozens of people around him immediately responded and roared.  After a while of noise, a white-haired old man shouted with his beard blowing and his eyes wide.

    "Uncle Liu is kind to the people and is a wise king of the world. I have never seen such a benevolent and righteous monarch in my life. Although I am old, I am still willing to sacrifice my body to guard Fancheng for my uncle!"

    After the old man finished speaking, the sound became louder and surged all over Fu Xun's body, making his ears ring.  Another old woman with a hunchback struck the ground with her stick and shouted.

    "Please, Mr. Zhuge, don't worry about us and the people. As long as we can follow the emperor's uncle, we and the people are willing to follow you even if you go up mountains of swords and into seas of fire!"

    Immediately, there were shouts and shouts one after another.

    "The emperor's uncle is a righteous man in the world, and Cai Degui is a cruel and rebellious man, and he is the evil thief of the world."
