"An army of 200,000 people?" Liu Qi and Zhuge Liang both exclaimed. You must know that at this time, Jingzhou had already exhausted all the troops in Jingzhou and only had 100,000 troops. Liu Zhang actually mobilized an army of 200,000 people at once. It is not that Jingzhou does not have an army of 200,000, but Jingzhou is now surrounded by enemies on all sides. Nearly half of the troops need to stay to guard the four sides, and only 100,000 troops can be mobilized. Just like Cao Cao, although he monopolized several states, he could only mobilize nearly 80,000 people for a decisive battle with Yuan Shao. The situation faced by Cao Cao was even more severe than that of Jingzhou. The land occupied by Cao Cao is all located in the Central Plains, which has always been the place where the Four Wars were fought. If you are not careful, there may be a fire in the backyard, and you will be defeated, and you will have to leave most of your troops to guard the rear. Now that Yizhou has gone to war with Jingzhou and has the upper hand, it is not impossible for Yizhou to mobilize all its troops. However, the 200,000 troops were almost all of Yizhou's troops. Before the war with Jingzhou, Yizhou and the surrounding areas were not peaceful. The Nanman barbarians in the south of Yizhou have been at war with Yizhou soldiers and horses all year round. Liu Zhang mobilized all the troops in the territory here. Isn't he afraid that the Nanman barbarians will take the opportunity to cause chaos? The two of them looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. Liu Zhang was either preparing to go all out to fight Jingzhou, or he was so angry that he lost his mind. But the problem is that with so many people under Liu Zhang's command, didn't anyone dissuade him? ¡°And there was no news about this matter in advance. Neither Yang Song nor Jin Yiwei had any news about what happened in Chengdu. Zhuge Liang took a deep breath and looked up at the map of Yizhou behind Liu Qi. Jinzhu is in the northeast of Guanghan County, close to Zitong County. If Liu Zhang ordered an army of 200,000 to attack Zitong County, with the 20,000 soldiers and horses in Zitong County, it would be impossible Just can't resist it. "How many soldiers and horses are there in Mianyang?" Liu Qi frowned as he looked at the map. Mianyang is located in the southwest of Zitong County. It can be regarded as the first city to resist Liu Zhang's army. Next is Zitong where Liu Qi's army is now. Liu Zhang¡¯s 200,000-strong army was approaching fiercely, and Zitong County was the first to bear the brunt. If you want to resist Liu Zhang's army of 200,000, you must defend the three cities of Mianyang, Zitong and Jiangyou, and form a corner to block Liu Zhang's army from Zitong County. This will give Jingzhou time to mobilize its troops and concentrate its forces, so that it can fight against Liu Zhang's army. "Lord, there are only 3,000 soldiers and horses in Mianyang City. Now Mianyang is guarded by Su Fei." Zhuge Liang said with a serious expression. Even if Su Fei has certain abilities, 3,000 people are not enough to resist Liu Zhang's 200,000 soldiers. horse. Zhuge Liang knew all the generals under Liu Qi's command. He had met Su Fei a few times. Although he had some martial arts skills, they were far inferior to Gan Ning and others. Mianyang City could not be defended with three thousand men, and Jiang You The guarding general was even a junior general. If an army of 200,000 pressed against Zitong County, it would most likely be captured within a few days. "My lord, the only plan for now is to support Mianyang as soon as possible. Rely on the three cities of Mianyang, Jiangyou and Zitong to delay for a period of time. Only when the army gathers can we have the strength to resist." Zhuge Liang said, cupping his hands. "Well, Zhao Yun is ordered to lead 10,000 troops and horses to Mianyang quickly, and Huang Zhong is ordered to lead 10,000 troops and horses to support Jiangyou. At the same time, the troops scattered in various places must be assembled immediately." Liu Qi said with a condensed expression. If one of them fails this time, it is very likely that Liu Zhang will be driven out of Zitong County directly. By then, Liu Zhang will be on guard and it will be difficult to attack Yizhou again. "No." Zhuge Liang did not dare to neglect and walked out quickly to deliver the order. ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ Outside Jinzhu City, 200,000 Yizhou soldiers and horses are stationed here. The endless tents are shouting deafeningly. Even the people in Mianyang City could hear the killing sound clearly. "My lord, now that the army has arrived at Zitong County, why not attack Zitong County directly and drive the Jingzhou troops out of Jingzhou in one fell swoop?" Huang Quan said to Liu Zhang in the tent. "Yes, my lord, now the Jingzhou army has just captured Yinping County and Wudu County. It is a good time to attack because the troops are dispersed. Now that the lord has assembled an army of 200,000, it is just right to defeat Zitong County, Yinping County, Wudu County and Hanzhong County in one fell swoop. By conquering the county together, Yizhou will not only regain its power, but also be better than before," Pang Xi stepped forward. "Okay, Zi Qiao has received news that Chengdu's grain and grass are in short supply. Although the 200,000-strong army is massive, the wasted grain and grass is unbearable for Yizhou. Now Zi Qiao has raised grain and grass from various places, but it also needs a certain amount of food and grass. Time. Besides, there is no need to mobilize an army of 200,000 to capture Zitong County. Didn¡¯t Gao Pei lead an army of 20,000 to attack Mianyang? There are only 3,000 troops in Mianyang, so why worry?" Liu Zhang waved his hands impatiently. , Jingzhou¡¯s soldiers and horses here areWith only 100,000 or 200,000 troops, it is more than enough to deal with Jingzhou, and there is no need to send out 200,000 soldiers and horses to attack a city. "My lord, Liu Qi from Jingzhou has always defeated the strong with the weak and will win every battle. My lord must be on guard. Now that General Gao Pei has been sent to attack Mianyang, why not send the general to attack Jiangyou and Zitong, so that Liu Qi's clone can be "I don't have the energy to mobilize the troops." At this moment, a middle-aged man in his thirties suddenly spoke in the big tent. This middle-aged man had a majestic appearance and an air of humility all over his body. It made people feel close to him, but no one present dared to look down upon him. The reason why Liu Zhang was able to mobilize 200,000 troops to attack Jingzhou without any scruples was all due to the contribution of this man. This man is Qiao Zhou, who is now in great power under Liu Zhang. Sure enough, when he heard Qiao Zhou's words, Liu Zhang was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement and said, "Yun Nan's words are correct. A two-pronged approach will definitely make Liu Qi die without a burial place." After speaking, he looked at Yang Huai who was aside and said: "According to Yunnan's words, Yang Huai can lead 20,000 troops to attack Jiangyou, and Yan Yan can lead 50,000 troops to attack Zitong. I don't believe that Liu Qi can save the day." "Promise." Yang Huai, Yan Yan and the others took the order and left. ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ At the same time, there was a lot of fighting in Mianyang City, shouts of killing could not be heard, and there was a tragic atmosphere. permeated the entire tower. When Gao Pei led 20,000 soldiers and horses to the outside of Mianyang City, he was discovered by Su Fei in the city. Although he didn't know why 20,000 Yizhou soldiers and horses suddenly appeared, Su Fei did not dare to neglect and immediately ordered people to Close the city gates and gather soldiers and horses in the city to guard the city. But Gao Pei, who had already rushed to the city, ordered the attack without any hesitation. A fierce and fierce battle suddenly broke out. On the one hand, he was well prepared, and on the other hand, he had strong soldiers and horses, and strong strength. The fight was inextricable for a while. Since following Liu Qi, this is the first time Su Fei has guarded a city alone, so Su Fei is particularly serious. He followed Gan Ning and defected to Liu Qi earlier, which meant that he had earlier and more opportunities to make contributions. Gan Ning has made great achievements under Liu Qi and has led large armies in battle several times. He can be regarded as a first-rate military general under Liu Qi. Although he was not as good as Gan Ning, since he defected to Liu Qi, he had traveled here and there, fought continuously, and made many military exploits. Therefore, he was not too surprised when he was sent to guard a city this time. If you want to gain more power, you must achieve more military exploits. Su Fei knows this very well. Today, 20,000 Yizhou soldiers and horses appeared here without warning. It is very likely that it is a big move by Yizhou soldiers and horses. No matter what, the Yizhou soldiers and horses must be blocked here. If they are blocked, it will be a big achievement. If they can't be blocked, All the efforts made before moving in may be in vain. And everyone knows that he is Gan Ning's brother. Although Gan Ning is now increasingly powerful, he has not alienated them. On the contrary, he is closer than before, which also makes everyone know that they are Relationship. The three leaders of the Jinfan thieves are always connected with each other and share weal and woe. He is not as capable as Gan Ning, but he cannot lose Gan Ning's people. This is the case in both his and Wu Xiong's hearts. idea. Fortunately, he and Wu Xiong had achieved success one after another. Although they were far inferior to Gan Ning, they were already considered honorable compared to their talents. "Kill!" After cutting down a Yizhou soldier in front of him to the ground, Su Fei raised his head and looked at the situation around him. Although there were three thousand soldiers and horses in the city, he was still at a disadvantage under the attack of 20,000 Yizhou soldiers and horses. Downwind, soldiers from Yizhou attacked the city from time to time. "Huh!" Su Fei took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. Although he was not good at defending the city, he had guarded You County with Huo Jun and others. The situation at that time was far worse than now. He assisted Huo Junzhi I also learned some common sense about defending the city. "Fire the arrow!" Su Fei took a few steps back, not bothering with the Yizhou soldiers who were attacking the city, and ordered coldly. ???????????????? Feather arrows were sprinkled down one after another, and accompanied by the screams of the Yizhou soldiers, countless Yizhou soldiers fell down the ladder. Without preparedness, the Yizhou soldiers immediately lost many people. Very few people would choose to order arrows to be fired when the two armies are in a stalemate. Su Fei's actions undoubtedly stunned the Yizhou soldiers on the tower. Ignoring the surprised expressions of the Yizhou soldiers, Su Fei shouted again: "Fire the arrows!" "Whoosh!" Another wave of arrows rained down, and more and more Yizhou soldiers fell down the ladder, and so on for several waves. After the rain of arrows, the number of Yizhou soldiers climbing onto the tower suddenly decreased. "Drive them down!" Su Fei yelled and rushed up to the tower again.The Yizhou soldiers above were fighting together. At this time, there were less than a hundred Yizhou soldiers left on the city tower, but the Yizhou soldiers below the city could not reach the city tower in a short time. The hundreds of Yizhou soldiers were attacked by Su Fei. Below, it quickly disintegrated. "Don't stop, keep shooting arrows!" Su Fei shouted sternly as he saw the Yizhou soldiers appearing on the ladder. After suppressing the offensive momentum of the Yizhou soldiers, Su Fei gradually understood the link. At the same time, he ordered the soldiers to release arrows and ordered someone to prepare kerosene. "Pour it down!" The boiling fire oil spilled down the city, and all the Yizhou soldiers who got even a little bit of it were holding their wounds and wailing endlessly. "Let go!" Huge boulders were thrown down, smashing the Yizhou soldiers under the tower into pulp. "Damn it, send me another 3,000 people up there!" Gao Pei, who was at the bottom of the city, roared immediately when he saw that the offensive was frustrated.
