    "It's absolutely true. When my general saw that the Han army was exhausted, as the saying goes, a good minister chooses his master, so my general wanted to come to your majesty with 10,000 troops and horses. ¨J"

    "Well, very good. Go back and tell your general that he will come by boat at three o'clock tonight and I will personally greet you to show my respect."

    "No! Long live His Majesty the Great Emperor!"

    Lin Nan smiled and said: "Come here, take ten gold coins and reward him."

    "Thank you very much, His Majesty the Great Emperor. May His Majesty the Great Emperor be blessed with great blessings and longevity!"

    "Okay, okay, as long as you do good things for me, after your general surrenders, I will reward you with a hundred gold coins, and then make you a high official. If your general surrenders sincerely, I will use him in a more important way.  Make him a waiter and give him a high rank."

    "Littlelittle" Du San was stunned and admired Lin Nan's generosity.

    "See you off!" Lin Nan waved his hand and asked someone to see Du San off.

    After Du San left, Lin Nan called Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, Wenpin, Zhang Qian and other generals and gave them detailed instructions. After hearing this, the four generals all looked happy and went down to prepare.  .

    ¡­¡­

    "Did he really say that?" Du Xi grabbed Du San's wrist and asked excitedly.

    "Yes, General." Du San took out ten gold coins from his arms, showed them in front of Du Xi, and said, "General, look, he gave this to his subordinates. He also said that after the work is completed,  Small ones also have official positions.¡±

    Du Xi took the ten gold coins from Du San's hand and looked at them carefully. He saw the word Huaxia printed on one side of the gold coins and Lin Nan's head on the other side. He weighed it and found that the ten gold coins had  Weighs half a pound.

    "Well. The Huaxia Kingdom has a strong national power and strong soldiers and horses. It seems like this. If I can serve as an official in the Huaxia Kingdom, I will definitely enjoy endless glory and wealth" With that, Du Xi stuffed the ten gold coins into  In his own arms.

    "General, that gold coin is" Du San saw it.  He shouted hurriedly, but when he saw Du Xi's fierce eyes, he stopped talking, but in his heart he scolded all the eighteen generations of Du Xi's ancestors.  However, after he finished scolding, Du San remembered that he and Du Xi were from the same clan, so he quickly changed his words and only scolded Du Xi.

    Du Xi said: "I will keep this gold coin for you first. When I make great achievements, your benefits will naturally be indispensable. You go and give the order, and I will go see Da Sima."

    "Nuo!" Before Du San left, he rolled his eyes at Du Xi and cursed in his heart: "What a bastard!"

    Du Xi went straight to see Grand Sima Tianyu and immediately paid his respects: "Grand Sima's clever plan, Lin Nan really fell into it. Let me surrender at three o'clock tonight."

    Tian Yu nodded and said: "He is creating rumors among our army. Just for this reason, I will use the trick and send you to fake a surrender. You go tonight and wait until you reach the north bank. Once Lin Nan launches an attack on the south bank,  We will definitely send you to the front. If you turn against us at that time, the Chinese army will be defeated."

    "Yes." Du Xi's eyes rolled, and he suddenly remembered something, and said, "However, Lin Nan also put forward a new condition, saying that the Chinese army lacked ships and needed to bring some warships over. Da Sima, look  ¡­¡±

    Tian Yu thought about it and felt that Lin Nan's conditions were extremely reasonable, so he said: "I will give you one battleship, ten battleships, and if you don't want to bear the child, you will not be able to trap the wolf. After you go, everything will go according to plan."

    "No!" Du Xi chuckled in his heart.

    "If this matter comes to pass, I will recommend you as the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy and let His Majesty make you king." Tian Yu seemed to be worried about something again, patted Du Xi's shoulder and said.

    Du Xi said: "I dare not die in service."

    At three o'clock that night, Du Xi, as agreed, drove a fighting ship and twenty medium-sized warships, slowly sailing from the south bank to the north bank.  The river was very wide. Du Xi stood on the deck of the battleship and looked at the north bank. He saw the bright lights of the water army's stronghold on the north bank, stretching for more than ten miles. He couldn't help but sigh: "People die for money and birds die for food. I, Du Xi, do the same."  He is a talented man who knows the current affairs. The Huaxia Kingdom has such strong soldiers and horses that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei can't resist it, let alone me."

    Du San was at his side at this time, smiling and saying: "General, our glory and wealth are right in front of us"

    Not long after, Du Xi approached the north bank, and was intercepted by a patrol boat on the river. The boats were very small, and each boat could carry twenty people. They must have been vulnerable to the large battleships brought by Du Xi, not to mention the surrounding ships.  There are also twenty medium-sized warships escorting them, which are vast and powerful. Ten thousand soldiers and horses are scattered on these twenty warships, which is also extremely powerful.

    At this time, a larger ship sailed out from the Chinese Navy Navy Camp. Lin Nan stood on the bow of the ship, riding the wind and waves, and soon met Du Xi and others.?.

    After meeting each other twice, Lin Nan howled: "Is this Du Zixu here?"

    Du Xi hurriedly shouted: "It's Du, please see your majesty!"

    When he saw that the man looked very similar to the one on the gold coin, he was sure that Lin Nan was the emperor of China. He clasped his fists and shouted: "Dumou has come as agreed to surrender to Your Majesty. I have offended you many times in the past. Please forgive me."  Tolerance.¡±

    "No problem, please come to the camp!" The warship under Lin Nan's feet was the largest here, but compared with the medium-sized warships brought by Du Xi, it was simply not on the same level. He asked people to get out of the way and let Du Xi and others go.  Enter the navy camp.

    After Du Xi entered Dazhai, Lin Nan was already on the shore. He led all the civil and military officials to welcome Du Xi's arrival, and asked the drumbeating team to start playing music. It was very grand, and Du Xi was deeply moved.

    After the group entered the big tent, Lin Nan personally hosted a banquet for Du Xi and the 10,000 soldiers Du Xi brought. Zhang Qian entertained the soldiers Du Xi brought while he himself chatted with Du Xi in the camp.

    Of course, we only chatted and never mentioned military matters.

    That night, Du Xi was very drunk and was helped to rest.

    When he woke up the next morning, Lin Nan held another banquet to entertain Du Xi again.  Du Xi had never received such courtesy. During the banquet, he immediately said: "Your Majesty, the Emperor, I am guilty! I was sent by the Great Sima Tianyu to pretend to surrender"

    "I know." Lin Nan replied unabashedly.

    Du Xi was shocked for a while, but when he saw that no one sitting with him was hostile, he asked: "Your Majesty knows?"

    "Well, how can Tian Yu's little tricks be enough to deceive me? General Du, since you dare to say these words to me, it means that you have sincerely surrendered to me, right?"

    "I sincerely surrender. Tian Yu made an agreement with me, asking me to trick your majesty into sending troops, saying that I will attack the navy on the south bank today, and then surround your majesty on the river"

    "Haha. Great. Just mobilize the troops and horses in a moment and let Tian Yu get what he wants."

    "But" Du Xi said worriedly.

    "I have made arrangements, General Du just needs to do as I say." At that moment, Lin Nan told Du Xi what to do, and Du Xi felt happy after hearing this.

    "In this way, the navy of Han Dynasty is not enough!" Du Xi said happily.

    After having had enough wine and food, everyone gathered their troops and horses.  They boarded the ship one after another.

    Lin Nan took Jia Xu, Guo Jia, and Xun You to personally board the battleship that Du Xi was riding. All two thousand Chinese troops changed into Han army clothes and stood on the battleship. There were many spears and bows and crossbows.  Seems extremely mighty.

    The large warships of the Han army can only carry 2,000 people, and the other twenty medium-sized warships can not carry 1,500 people, all soldiers.  They were all disguised as Chinese soldiers, and the Han army clothes were ripped off from former prisoners.  There were also some soldiers hiding in the cabin and not showing up. The Chinese flag was hung on the mast of the ship, and the group of people headed towards the south bank in a mighty manner.  In addition, countless small boats followed closely behind the battleship, each carrying hundreds of people.  Or pretending to be twenty or thirty people, half of the soldiers of the Chinese Army stationed on the river bank were dispatched. The 100,000-strong army filled the entire Han River, and the Chinese flags were all over the river that stretched for more than ten miles.

    certainly.  Du Xi had already sent someone to deliver a message to Tian Yu. Tian Yu learned that Du Xi had successfully led the Chinese army to attack, so he quickly gathered troops and horses, and all 100,000 naval troops boarded the ship, preparing to decide the outcome in this battle.  .

    Tian Yu divided his troops into two groups. He led dozens of warships on the left, and assigned 50,000 naval troops to He Xia to lead and assist on the right.  After the Han army boarded the ship, Tian Yu boosted morale and threatened to win the battle, and had already sent people to do damage.  After half a day of motivation, morale improved slightly.

    About half an hour later, the two armies met in the middle of the river. Tian Yu stood on the fighting ship and looked across the way. Seeing the huge momentum of the Chinese army, which was almost overwhelming, he laughed and immediately sent ten medium-sized warships to form a formation.  In a row, all the archers were ready and rushed towards the Chinese army.

    Du Xi stood on the bow of the fighting ship and immediately raised the flag as agreed, asking people to put down the Chinese army's flag, put up the Han army's flag, and began to make gestures to turn the ship's bow.

    After Tian Yu looked at it, he laughed and said: "How can those fishing boats and small boats of the Chinese army be a match for my powerful navy?"

    However, his laughter suddenly stopped, because he saw that Du Xi did not turn the bow of the ship and attack, but directly rushed towards the Han army's warship at high speed.  It was midwinter at this time, the north wind was howling, and Du Xi and others followed the current and the wind. The speed of the ship was extremely brisk, and all the sails on the ship's masts were unfolded. Everyone on the ship also took out their repeating crossbows and pointed towards the Han Dynasty.  The soldiers on the warship fired indiscriminately.

    "Boom"

    With a loud noise, the Chinese army¡¯s shipThen it hit the Han army's ship. After a slight shake, the swordsmen who were waiting in the cabin rushed out and rushed towards the Han army's ship. At the same time, the people on the deck also began to throw flying hooks.  , ropes, tightly trapping the enemy ship.

    "I fell into the trap. Du Xi, the bastard, actually faked it and really joined the Chinese army!" Tian Yu was annoyed for a while, but it was too late to retreat at this time. He could only fight hard and turned to the flag bearer behind him.  , "Give Heqia an order, and the entire army will press forward to fight to the death with the Chinese army!"

    The ten medium-sized warships sent by the Han army previously had all fallen. Du Xi's sudden counterattack achieved very good results. The Chinese army was extremely brave, and the soldiers all moved forward. The power of the serial crossbow was exerted in such a short distance.  Great power.  Du Xi also went to the battlefield in person, holding a sword and showing off his power in front of Lin Nan, demonstrating his personal bravery.

    Du Xi learned deeply about the command system of the Han army's warships. He led a group of people and chopped down the captain on the ship. He cut off his head and held it in his hand. He raised it high and shouted loudly: "The strength of the Han Dynasty is exhausted.  Long live Your Majesty, the Great Emperor of China! If I surrender, why don¡¯t you risk your life!¡±

    An angry shout, with a sound like thunder, rolled into the ears of the Han soldiers. Seeing that the Chinese troops were everywhere in the distance, and their morale had been low earlier, the Han soldiers all laid down their weapons and expressed their willingness to surrender.

    As soon as the front force of the Han navy was defeated, Du Xi made a lot of achievements. He immediately ordered the ship to be turned around and sent the newly surrendered soldiers of the Han state to the front.  Responsible for recruiting the rest of the Han army officers and soldiers.

    When Tian Yu saw this, he was also annoyed. Unexpectedly, he shot himself in the foot. In anger, he ordered more than 40,000 men on his side to line up in a line and sink the anchor to the bottom of the river.  Let the archers start shooting randomly in an attempt to stop the Chinese offensive.

    On the other side, Heqia and his 50,000 navy troops received Tian Yu's order, but he did not move.

    "Change the flag!" He Qia stood at the head of the battleship, wearing thick armor and a bright red cloak swinging in the wind. He raised his hand and immediately ordered.

    The naval forces of the Han Dynasty were all part of the old peace and harmony department.  Although Tian Yu replaced He Xia as the Commander-in-Chief, it was only a matter of three or two days, and it was not as high as He Xia's status in the minds of the navy officers.  As soon as the navy officers and soldiers heard the words of peace, they lowered the Han national flag and raised the Chinese military flag that had been prepared early.

    In fact, rumors are spreading in the army, and it was deliberately arranged by someone. Just imagine that the Han navy's defenses along the river are extremely tight.  How could anyone come here?

    From the time when Sima Yi led his army to sneak across the country secretly, to when the families of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were secretly sent to the north bank of the Han River.  He Qia has been involved from the beginning to the end. Without his orders, the Huaxia Army's move would have been impossible to succeed.  Everything is a big conspiracy, Zhuge Liang is in the light, and harmony is in the dark.  Just waiting for this day.  Otherwise, how could Zhuge Liang leave Xiangyang so easily.

    Of course, Du Xi is not the Han navy, but just a remnant of Guan Yu's army, so from beginning to end.  Hexia did not include Du Xi in the plan.  Originally He Xia wanted to put up a symbolic resistance and then raise the flag to surrender, but seeing that Du Xi was about to steal his limelight, he naturally did not dare to show weakness and gave the order on the spot.

    As soon as the flags on the battleship where He Xia was located were changed, the flags on the other battleships were also removed. The 50,000 Han navy immediately became the Chinese navy.

    Not only that, among the 40,000 naval troops commanded by Tian Yu, defections immediately occurred. Tian Yu was shouting commands to fire arrows, but who knew that four strong men suddenly rushed over from behind and knocked Tian Yu down directly?  On the ground, no matter how hard Tian Yu struggled, he could not break free and was quickly tied up by Wu Hua Da.

    Until this moment, Tian Yu realized that Hexia had already intended to surrender and that he had become a prisoner.

    Lin Nan stood on the fighting ship opposite. He was worried about how to fight when he saw the Han navy was so powerful, because apart from the battleships brought by Du Xi, the largest ship among Lin Nan's men only carried a hundred people.  As long as it is lightly hit by a battleship, it will immediately sink into the river.

    And the navy of Han Dynasty are all warships. In addition, the navy of Han Dynasty is famous all over the world and has many brilliant achievements, so he has no idea about this battle.  Just when he was at a loss what to do, he miraculously discovered that all the warships of the Han Navy were replaced with the Chinese flag.

    He was pleasantly surprised and hurriedly took out his binoculars. When he saw Tian Yu being tied up, he couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha God is really helping me!"

    The battle only lasted for half an hour and ended. One hundred thousand Han naval forces were unified and put on the Chinese flag. This scene was so spectacular.

    "The wind and rain in Zhongshan turned yellow, and millions of troops crossed the river. The tiger is sitting on the dragon's plate and the present is better than the past. The world is turned upside down and generous. It is better to use the remaining brave men to chase the poor bandits, not to pretend to be a famous scholar. If God is affectionate, he will also grow old, and human beings??The right path is subject to vicissitudes of life.  "Lin Nan was so happy that he couldn't help but utter a poem written by Mao Taizu thousands of years later. Not to mention how happy he felt at the moment.

    Thinking back on history, on the eve of Red Cliff, Cao Cao's army marched south, hearing the news and surrendering all the way. All Liu Biao's men surrendered.  At this moment, Lin Nan could finally understand Cao Mengde's mood at that time. Winning without fighting, gaining troops and land, fighting such a war was so damn satisfying.  If every attack on a city and territory is carried out like this, the great cause of unification will definitely be completed within a year.

    Seeing Lin Nan so happy, Jia Xu was worried that Lin Nan would be too excited, so he reminded: "Your Majesty, don't be arrogant in victory and don't be discouraged in defeat. You should guard against arrogance and impetuosity. The collective surrender of the Han navy is indeed gratifying.  Congratulations, but I still have to release him, what if it¡¯s the other side¡¯s trick again?¡±

    A wake-up call!

    After hearing this reminder from Jia Xu, Lin Nan immediately restrained his joyful mood. After a second thought, he felt that what Jia Xu said was very reasonable, so he turned to Guo Jia and said, "Go find Zhang Zhongjing and ask him to do this."  Get some Wangyou Powder out in a few days, the more the better, it will work wonders for me.¡±

    Guo Jia was originally arranged by Lin Nan to serve as Sima Yi's military advisor, but then he changed his mind and realized that Sima Yi had the ability to be independent and competent, so he continued to keep Guo Jia by his side.  He also had to discuss countermeasures with them morning and night.

    "Nuo!" Guo Jia had already seen Lin Nan's intention, turned around and left, letting the flag bearer send the flag message backwards, spreading it continuously to the river bank.

    Half an hour later, Lin Nan's troops all boarded the south bank of the Han River and entered the harmonious navy camp.  originally.  Lin Nan planned to inflict a heavy blow to the Han Navy. He had already ordered Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, Wenpin, Zhang Qian and others to make arrangements and prepare to use the black powder secretly developed in the past few years to sink the Han Navy.  warships, but no one expected that all the Han naval forces surrendered.  In this way, Lin Nan naturally saved a lot of trouble, and the secret weapon was also prepared to be used in the attack on Xiangyang City.

    In the camp, Huang Zhong, Zhang Liao, Wenpin, Zhang Qian and other generals lined up and stood on the left side.  Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Xun You and others lined up in a row, standing on the right side. In the middle were He Xia, Du Xi and Tian Yu who was tied up and kneeling on the ground.

    Lin Nanduan sat there, glanced at Tian Yu, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional. When he was in Liaodong, Tian Yu was just a teenager, but he hadn't been together for so many years.  Tian Yu unexpectedly grew into a general in the Han army, with a strong body.  Full of fortitude.

    "Untie Guo Rang!" Lin Nan raised his hand and said.

    After Tian Yu was released, he glared at Lin Nan angrily, then turned around and spat in the faces of He Xia and Du Xi, cursing: "Slaves who betray the country will not die a good death!"

    He Qia and Du Xi both felt ashamed.  Du Xi raised his hand to strike, but when he saw Lin Nan's sharp eyes, he gave up and had to swallow his anger and wipe the spit from his face.

    "Da Sima. We call those who know the current affairs heroes. The Han Dynasty and its general situation are over. Besides, Liu Bei also captured Jingzhou from the young master Liu Qi. This Jingzhou originally belonged to the young master Liu Qi. We are the old subordinates of the young master Liu, so naturally we cannot  Compared with you." Although He Xia was angry, what he said did make sense.

    After Tian Yu heard this, he couldn't help but be startled. Mr. Liu Qi died suddenly three years ago. How could someone at such a young age die so early? There must be a reason.  At that time, he guessed that it must be Liu Bei.  But there's nothing wrong with cutting the grass and roots.

    "Guorang, you are from Youzhou. The territory of Youzhou has changed a lot in recent years. Your mother is now in Jicheng and has someone to take care of her. After all these years, don't you miss your mother at all?" Lin Nan was still very worried.  Tian Yu was highly regarded. After all, he was also a famous border general in history. He had unique methods in dealing with foreign affairs.

    "Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot have both sides, so I can only"

    Before Tian Yu could finish his words, Lin Nan shouted: "What if we can have both?"

    Tian Yu looked at Lin Nan suspiciously and sneered: "How is this possible?"

    "It's very simple. As long as you surrender to me, be loyal to me, and be filial to your mother, this problem will be solved. Over the years, your mother has missed you very much. She will be at the south gate of Jicheng every day.  Sitting speechless, looking forward to seeing his son return, do you understand this truth? Recently, I heard that your mother has an old illness and is bedridden every day.  Calling your name, can you bear to let your mother be like this Hey, I will let you go now and give you a customs clearance document. You can go back to see your mother unimpeded in China. "

    After hearing what Lin Nan said, Tian Yu's eyes were filled with tears. On the one hand, he was his mother, and on the other hand, he was the monarch he was loyal to. He was in a dilemma and didn't know what to do. After thinking about it,I decided to kill myself to thank the world.

    He suddenly turned around and pulled out the long sword hanging from Du Xi's waist from behind. Just as he was about to behead himself with the sword, he saw a sword light stabbing him, directly blocking the long sword in his hand.

    "You are not afraid of death, are you still afraid of living? Although Liu Bei is your old master, don't worry, I will not kill him, and I will not force you to surrender. All good deeds and filial piety come first. If you want to still be a man, then go back  Meet your mother!" Lin Nan had already expected that upright people would always go to extremes, so when Tian Yu turned around, he drew his sword and jumped over to block it.  Tian Yu's long sword.

    "Iheythat's all" Tian Yu was also in a dilemma. Between the monarch and his mother, he finally chose his mother. Being a filial person, he dropped his sword and immediately worshiped Lin.  In front of Nan, he said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for doing this!"

    After saying that, Tian Yu walked out of the tent without looking back.

    "Give General Tian a horse, some transportation and some food, and send General Tian across the river!" Lin Nan shouted from behind.

    Lin Nan easily climbed to the south bank of the Han River and was rewarded for his merits.  With Hexia as the naval commander-in-chief and Du Xi as the deputy commander-in-chief, he continued to command the Han navy. His Chinese army crossed the river one after another and set up countless camps on the south bank in one day.  It stretches for more than a hundred miles and is huge.

    Hexia and Du Xi surrendered, and the news that Tian Yu's whereabouts were unknown soon spread to Xiangyang City. All the officials were shocked, and Liu Bei was even more furious, ordering the execution of all the family members of He Xia and Du Xi.  However, Hexia's family members were not in Xiangyang City at all, but in Jiangling City, while Du Xi's family members had moved out of Xiangyang City very early.  The butcher's knife was raised, but no one was killed. Liu Bei was furious and killed Han Song, Fu Xun and other people who had close contacts with Hehe. He ordered the city gates to be sealed and no one was allowed to leave the city without permission.  Ten thousand troops huddled in Xiangyang City.

    At the same time, a war also broke out in Jiangling City.  The Wu army surrounded the city with 150,000 soldiers and attacked Jiangling City from all sides.  Zhou Yu assigned Jiang Qin and Xu Sheng to attack the west gate, Dong Xi and Pan Zhang to attack the south gate, He Qi and Song Qian to attack the north gate, and he himself led Ling Cao and Chen Wu to attack the east gate.

    Ling Cao led the troops, holding a hundred steel swords and wearing thick armor.  He carried a bag of sacks on his shoulders and went to the moat. Braving the rain of arrows, he filled the sacks into the moat.  The soldiers behind him also fought bravely. The strong man carried two sacks each and threw all the sacks filled with loess.  Then run back.  After going back and forth several times, thousands of sacks accumulated, filling up the moat.

    The road was filled in here, and Ling Cao once again took the lead, leading three thousand men who dared to die. Each of them held a sword in his right hand, a shield in his left hand, and a repeating crossbow in his waist. He quickly rushed to the bottom of the city wall from the filled-in road.  Three thousand soldiers held shields and formed a line of defense under the city wall.

    Outside the moat, Chen Wu commanded the catapult to hit the city wall of Jiangling City. A large square stone flew in the air and hit the tall and large wall of Jiangling City. The broken stone debris moved with the wind and filled the entire city wall.  , choking the Han soldiers so much that they couldn't open their eyes.

    Zhou Yu was riding on a horse. Looking from a distance, he felt very happy.

    After a while, the soldiers carried the ladders and gathered towards Ling Cao. They set up the ladders at the base of the city wall. The soldiers took advantage of the wall to prevent the Han army from opening their doors and climbed up one after another.

    At this moment, the four gates were attacked at the same time. Zhuge Jin, who was in the prefect's mansion, immediately panicked and hurriedly asked people to beat the war drums. The soldiers in the city rushed towards the four gates.  Zhuge Jin rode his horse out and met Sima Lang. He called out: "Boda is coming with me to the east gate. The Wu army has begun to attack the city."

    Sima Lang was also stunned for a moment. Originally, the answer he got was that the Wu army would not attack the city until spring, but why was it one or two months earlier?  The cold morning was immediately filled with the flames of war, and the people beside the city wall moved closer to the city. Although it was no longer snowing, it was still cold.

    Not long after, Zhuge Jin and Sima Lang both arrived at the east gate. As soon as they arrived at the city tower, they saw the overwhelming Wu army outside. A large group of black people on the white snow. Wu Jun wearing blue uniforms ran back and forth on the snow. Wu Jun  Under the banner, Zhou Yu was commanding the entire army to fight. There were Wu troops under the city wall. The offensive was quite fierce. Huge boulders flew in the air and hit the city wall with a muffled sound. Suddenly, stone debris flew everywhere.

    The city wall of Jiangling City is very thick. The impact of such huge rocks is like a mosquito tickling. The Han troops on the city wall, led by the gate guards, are also brave. These people are from the four counties of Jingnan.  The mountains and forests are tall and strong, and they are as light as a swallow when climbing rocks and walls. At this time, they are used to defend the city, and they also show their bravery. They brave boulders and rain of arrows, and knock down ladders one after another, so that no soldier of the Wu army can climb.  Come up.

    "Fire arrows! Shoot them to death!" Zhuge Jin commanded his men and shouted to everyone in unison.

    ? ?At this time, the city gate reinforcements arrived to reinforce the four city gates and defended the city head with an absolute advantage. Not a single Wu army was allowed to climb the city wall.

    Zhou Yu saw that the Han army's defense was extremely tight, but the Wu army's strong attack had no effect. In addition, the siege troops suffered many casualties, so he ordered the army to withdraw.

    An hour after the Wu army retreated, they attacked the four gates again. This time the attack was more severe than the previous one. Zhou Yu changed the siege plan and concentrated all the catapults on the east gate. There was a fierce bombardment at the city gate.  , smashing the east gate with bruises all over, but the wall of Jiangling City still stands there.

    The infantry of the Wu army once again carried the ladders to attack the city, stepping on the corpses of those killed in the previous battle. Everyone's eyes were red and they wanted to kill all the Han troops.

    However, the walls of Jiangling City are very high and the Han army is tightly defended.  Wu Jun retreated again.

    After two battles to defend the city, Zhuge Jin asked people to carry the injured soldiers down for treatment, and at the same time asked people to carry away the dead soldiers and bury them together.  He personally went among the soldiers to inspect their conditions, and his various deeds made the soldiers defending the city feel warm.

    It¡¯s less than half an hour.  The Wu army launched a third fierce attack. This time, the Wu army only attacked three city gates. They diverted the troops that attacked the west gate and stormed the east gate.

    The east gate of Jiangling City was in a tight situation, so Zhuge Jin quickly mobilized troops from the west gate for reinforcements.

    Zhou Yu was riding on a tall horse. After taking a look, a smile appeared on his lips and he hurriedly ordered: "I will order Dong Xi, Pan Zhang, Song Qian, and He Qi to use all the troops from the north and south gates to attack the west gate."

    The herald went to deliver the order, and Zhou Yu ordered another herald: "Give Ling Cao the order. Let him hold on for a while!"

    "No!"

    Ling Cao and others were all wearing heavy armor and holding shields, and they guarded extremely tightly under the city wall. Every time he charged, the three thousand armored and shield soldiers he brought were at the forefront, although Wu Jun was always at the forefront.  A powerful attack was carried out, but relatively few soldiers were killed or injured. Basically everyone reached the bottom of the city wall.  They all use shields to protect themselves and attack back and forth.  Although the costumes were constantly changing, Ling Cao was always the only one.

    Zhuge Jin saw on the city wall that the Wu army below the city wall was like an ant nest, gathering more and more, each holding a shield, and arrows could not penetrate, and the huge rocks flying in the air were still destroying the city gate.  There was nothing that could be done for a while.

    After a long time, the guard of Ximen sent someone to report that Ximen had been violently attacked by a large number of Wu troops.  Zhuge Jin then realized that the Wu army was attacking from the east and west, and hurriedly ordered the troops from the north and south gates to allocate one gate each for defense.

    From morning to night, Wu Jun launched a total of seven attacks.  Although there was no success, the Han army at the city gate was thrown around. Sometimes they attacked the south gate, sometimes they attacked the north gate, sometimes they attacked all four gates, and sometimes they attacked both gates. The people in Wu's army who were responsible for running back and forth were all Shanyue soldiers.  His running ability was very fast, and his shots to the east and west made the city gate defenders dizzy.

    In the evening, Wu Jun's eighth attack retreated, and the sky gradually darkened. The four gates of Jiangling City were in a mess, and there were dead bodies around the gates. The white snow on the ground was dyed red with blood, and the moat was full of mud and  Floating bodies.

    The soldiers of the Han army who were guarding the city were already exhausted. They were relieved when they saw that the Wu army finally retreated.

    Zhuge Jin ordered the soldiers in the city to be given good wine and meat, which won unanimous cheers from the soldiers.

    After nightfall, Wu Jun did not take any offensive. Zhuge Jin was tired from the whole day and his voice was almost hoarse. Although he knew that Wu Jun was consuming the physical strength of his soldiers in the city, he could not think of any good way for a while.  There are only elite soldiers but no good generals. The only way is to hold on to the city. Moreover, Jiangling City is relatively rich. All the money and food of the four counties of Jingnan are stored here. It is also the county seat of Nanjun. It can be said that half of the money and food of the Han Dynasty are here.  Because of the hoarding, the city defenses are thicker than ordinary city walls.

    In the prefect's mansion, Zhuge Jin and Sima Lang sat across from each other, drinking alone. After drinking for three rounds, Zhuge Jin first said: "Zhou Yu attacked Jiangling City eight times today, but only more than 2,000 soldiers were damaged.  His purpose is not to attack the city, but to overwhelm us. The soldiers can tolerate it for a day or two, but over time, they will be exhausted. Brother Boda, do you have any good plans?  ?¡±

    Sima Lang thought for a while and said: "Zhou Yu has always been a person that your Majesty values ??highly. Your Majesty once said that Zhou Yu is a dragon and a phoenix among people. From the fact that he led troops to attack Shanyue and then pacified Shi Xie's Yue Kingdom, we can see that his  His ability is outstanding. Although Ziyu is also very talented, I am afraid he is slightly inferior to Zhou Yu. In addition, there are no good generals in the city. If it goes on for a long time, it will really be detrimental to me.  There is a plan, all you need is Brother Ziyu¡¯s nod.¡±

      Zhuge Jin asked: "What's the plan?"

    Sima Lang smiled and said: "It's very simple. The Huaxia Kingdom and Soochow have an alliance. As long as the Huaxia Army's flag is hung in Jiangling City, the Wu Kingdom will have to withdraw its troops."

    Zhuge Jin frowned and said with a smile: "Brother Boda, you are plotting against me. I haven't agreed to my younger brother's conditions yet. Why are you so anxious? I think it's better to wait for news about my younger brother."

    Sima Lang said: "It's up to you, that's what I mean anyway. However, I can't guarantee what kind of strategy Zhou Yu will make next. If this continues, I'm afraid Jiangling City will really be destroyed.  Break. Today I saw that although Zhou Yu had people attack, it was just a feint attack and he did not use all his strength. If something like this happens again tomorrow, I will see how you deal with it. "

    Zhuge Jin frowned and said, "Let's take it one step at a time. Anyway, my younger brother will surrender sooner or later. Why are you anxious?"

    "It's not that I'm anxious, it's Zhou Yu who is. Otherwise Zhou Yu wouldn't have attacked Jiangling so quickly."

    While the two people were talking, they suddenly heard loud gongs and drums outside, and shouts of death were heard from all around. Zhuge Jin was so shocked that he dropped the cup to the ground and hurriedly left the prefect's mansion.

    Sima Lang sat there, just sneered, and said to himself: "You are asking for trouble, and you can't blame others. Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu, I really want to thank you. Without you, how could I have obtained this Jiangling City at my fingertips?  "

    The Wu army is constantly attacking Jiangling City. At night, there are fires outside Jiangling City, and it is illuminated like day. The catapults continue to bombard the city wall. However, this time, the infantry of the Wu army did not attack the city. They just continued a single attack.  Attack with a catapult.

    "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

    Loud noises kept ringing in Zhuge Jin's ears. Everyone hid behind the battlements, with stone debris flying above their heads. Every time the city wall was hit, there would be a slight tremor. This was not seen during the day.  .

    "Grand Governor! The general requested to go out of the city to fight to the death with the Wu army!" Finally, someone couldn't help it. There were 100,000 soldiers and horses in the city, waiting to be killed like this. It was indeed not a glorious thing to spread the news.

    Zhuge Jin took a look at the visitor and saw that the visitor was only seventeen or eighteen years old, tall and burly, with a Chinese character face and a mustache. He was General Yamen Fu Tong.  He shook his head, sighed, and said: "Wu's army has many generals, but our army has no good generals and cannot go out to fight. It is better to hold on to the city."

    Fu Tong paid homage and said: "Master Governor, the Wu army has many generals, and our army is not mediocre. Although the last general is not as brave as ten thousand men, he is willing to lead an army and horse out of the city to fight to the death with the Wu people. I also ask the Commander-in-Chief to make it possible."  ¡±

    The soldiers in Jiangling City were all newly recruited by the Han Dynasty in the past five years. They were all soldiers brought out by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Young men are not afraid of tigers since they were born. After guarding the city for a day, all the soldiers in the city were exhausted. Many of them had already  can not watch anymore.  As soon as Fu Tong asked for orders, many young officers surrounding Zhuge Jin began to shout, shouting that they wanted to go out of the city and fight to the death with the Wu army.

    When Zhuge Jin saw this scene, he seemed to see a kind of hope. He looked around and shouted: "Are you really going to go out of the city to fight the enemy?"

    "Please make it happen, the Governor!" Fu Tong and others replied in unison.

    "Not afraid of hardships and dangers, not afraid of death?"

    "We are willing to issue a military order! We will not pull out the enemy's camp and will never return it!" Fu Tong took the lead and said.

    Zhuge Jin said happily: "This is the moment I have been waiting for. General Fu, I will promote you to General Polu and lead an army of five thousand to fight out from the east gate. Wu Jun expected that our army would not have many good generals and would not dare to go out of the city to fight. This time Fu  When the general leaves the city, he will definitely be caught off guard."

    After saying this, Zhuge Jin immediately went to the military camp in person, selected five thousand men who dared to die, and gave Fu Tong and others the best secret equipment in stock in Jiangling City to wear.  After a full meal and a short rest, Fu Tong and five thousand cavalry were gathered at the east gate to wait for orders.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
