Text Chapter 661 Liu Bei went crazy with anger

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When Yan Liang led an army of 60,000 to Xuzhou in a mighty manner, thousands of miles away in Liaodong, Lu Meng was rapidly expanding his results.  ,

    After capturing Xi'an Pingcheng, Lu Meng did not take the opportunity to move westward and went to capture Xiangping.

    Xiangping is very close to the Liao River. Once Lu Meng's army moves forward, it is likely to cause the Liaodong Army in Xiangping to collapse. At that time, Liu Bei can easily lead his army across the Liao River and take advantage of the situation to advance eastward.

    Lu Meng did not want to face Liu Bei's troops before he had a firm foothold, so he decided to stay in Xiangping temporarily and let Gongsun Kang block Liu Bei first.

    Therefore, after Lu Meng captured Xi'an Ping, he sent people by sea to report the victory to Yan Liang, and at the same time he recruited local men to build city defenses day and night.

    At the same time, L¨¹ Meng also assigned Zhangzha 5,000 troops and horses, and ordered him to lead his army eastward to capture Lelang and Daifang counties.

    The two counties of Lelang in the south now heard that the Chu army had landed and cut off the connection with Xiangyang. The soldiers and the people were already frightened and their hearts were in turmoil.

    "And the owners of the two counties only have thousands of county soldiers, so how can they resist the elites of hundreds of battles led by Zhang Jia.

    Therefore, Zhang Jiao marched his army southward, making great progress along the way. Most of the counties he passed passed by looking at the wind, and Zhang Jiao took Lelang County with almost no effort.

    After capturing Lelang, Zhangzhao marched non-stop and immediately led his army to the southwest to attack Daifang County.

    Less than three days after entering the army, Zhang Jaw's troops came to the county and led Fang's city. The governor appointed by Gongsun Kang knew that he did not know, so he led all the county officials to surrender. Zhang Jiao's troops captured two southern counties without any bloodshed.

    Opening his jaw to capture the two southern counties not only eliminated the threat from behind Lu Meng's main force.  More importantly, they captured Haiming City, an important port in Daifang County.

    The distance between Haiming City and Xuzhou Haixi is at least one-third shorter than that of Xi'an Pingcheng. This also means that the Chu army's follow-up troops and supplies will be needed.  It can be sent to Liaodong faster to support Lu Meng's expeditionary force.

    ¡­¡­

    To the west of Liao Tunnel City, there is the Yan Army camp.

    In the tent, Liu Bei was staring at the map of Liaodong with a frown on his face.

    The self-confidence that we had before sending troops to win has now mostly disappeared.

    Liu Bei originally thought that even the heroes of Hebei such as Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang were no match for him.  A mere Gongsun Kang, who was shrinking from Liaodong, was nothing.

    But now, the army is blocked under the Liao Tunnel City.  After being besieged for a month without being able to see anything, and facing the surging Liao River but unable to cross, Liu Bei realized that after Yuan Shao captured the four states in Hebei.  Why not take advantage of the victory and capture Liaodong?

    There is no other reason.  The geography and climate in Liaodong are so harsh that even the most elite soldiers and horses will not be able to be used here.

    "Alas" Liu Bei shook his head and sighed, full of helplessness.

    Sima Yi, who was beside him, saw Liu Bei's thoughts and said: "My king, there is no need to worry. It is winter now and the weather is getting colder. I predict that in less than January, the Liao River will definitely freeze. By that time, we can  We pretended to attack the Liao Tunnel, but crossed the ice from Liaoyang in the north and went straight to Xiangping."

    Sima Yi came up with a plan, and Liu Bei's eyes lit up, and his spirit suddenly cheered up.

    At this time, Chen Dao hurried in, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, please report carefully. Yan's army has landed from the sea."

    Hearing the news, Liu Bei's expression only moved slightly, and he did not appear too surprised, as if he had expected it.

    "Hmph, this handsome thief really wants to repeat his old trick." Liu Bei snorted coldly and said disapprovingly: "Immediately send an order to Gao Lan, ordering him to strictly guard the cities along the coast of Youzhou. If he does not fight, the thief army will not be able to take the city.  If we don¡¯t get food supplies, we won¡¯t be able to hold on for long and we will retreat without a fight.¡±

    Liu Bei gave the order calmly and calmly. At this time, he only thought that Yan Liang's maritime expeditionary force had landed on the coast of Youzhou as he had imagined.

    "Your Majesty's response is a master of the art of war." Sima Yi had the same thought and did not forget to compliment Liu Bei.

    Liu Bei stroked his short beard, his gray face filled with a bit of self-reliance.

    At this time, Chen Dao coughed a few times and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the Yan bandits did not land in Youzhou. It was Xi Zuo from the east who sent an urgent report that Chu General Lu Meng was leading his army from Ma Zi Shuikou.  After landing and capturing Pingcheng in Xi'an, the enemy immediately moved eastward and forced the surrender of Lelang and Daifang counties within a few days. "

    The Chu army has landed in Liaodong!  ?

    Liu Bei was shocked, his face was full of astonishment, and his face was full of surprise and confusion.

    Sima Yi was also shocked, but it was like waking up from a dream and suddenly realizing the shock.

    "Yan Yan thief landed in Liaodong, and he actually attacked Gongsun Kang's rear?" Liu Bei stuttered for a moment.

      Chen Dao said in a deep voice: "Yes, Your Majesty, this information is absolutely true. Yan Liang not only failed to help Gongsun Kang, but also took Gongsun Kang's retreat."

    Yan Liang, this thief, is he crazy?

    Liu Bei was shocked, and this thought flashed through his mind like lightning.

    As resourceful as he is, it is obvious that he has not been able to see through Yan Liang's purpose. This is the only explanation he can think of at the moment.

    "The courage and appetite of the thief Yan Liang are indeed extraordinary. I didn't expect that he could have such a plan." Sima Yi, who suddenly understood, couldn't help but admired.

    Liu Bei heard Sima Yi praising Yan Liang, his face suddenly showed displeasure, and he said in a deep voice: "Zhongda, what is the intention of this Yan Liang?"

    Sima Yi cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Yan Liang's intention is very obvious. He is obviously pretending to attack our Youzhou in the name of aiding Gongsun Kang, and deceives Gongsun Kang to relax his vigilance and kill all his troops."  They are gathered on the front line of Liao River, but Yan Liang's real purpose is to take advantage of this opportunity to capture Xi'an Pingcheng. Yan Liang wants to abandon Gongsun Kang and monopolize Liaodong. "

    Yan Liang wants to annex Liaodong!

    Liu Bei woke up suddenly, and endless shock surged into his heart like a tide. For a moment, he was so excited that he could hardly speak.

    As an old enemy, Liu Bei certainly knew that Yan Liangsu liked to take risks and would always use unexpected tricks.

    But what makes Liu Bei unbelievable is that Yan Liang was able to use danger to such an extent, risking the sacrifice of 30,000 troops, going to the sea, and sending troops from Xuzhou to capture Liaodong, which was thousands of miles away.

    Such courage was beyond Liu Bei¡¯s understanding.

    In a daze, Liu Bei had the illusion that the enemy he faced was no longer a human being, but a devil that could no longer be judged using human thinking.

    "Madman, he is a madman" the frightened Liu Bei cursed loudly.

    Sima Yi was also filled with disbelief. Although he saw through Yan Liang's intentions, he could not understand Yan Liang's courage. Like Liu Bei, he could not believe that there was someone in this world who dared to take such risks.

    Liu Bei cursed for a long time, and suddenly he laughed loudly, and his laughter was full of sarcasm.

    Sima Yi was puzzled and looked at Liu Bei blankly, but he couldn't understand how Liu Bei could still laugh at this time.

    Liu Bei saw Sima Yi's doubts and sneered: "Yan Liang is so bold that he wants to capture Liaodong, but he has forgotten that Liaodong is thousands of miles away from Xuzhou and extremely far away from me, Youzhou. Even if he can destroy it,  How can Gongsun Kang stop this king's cavalry?"

    It turns out that this is the reason why Liu Bei turned from surprise to joy.

    "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you have underestimated Yan Liang. Since he dares to do this, he must have a plan against our army. How can he sit back and watch the expeditionary force that our army has destroyed"

    Sima Yi sighed secretly and immediately wanted to speak out to persuade Liu Bei not to be too blindly optimistic.

    Before the words were spoken, another soldier hurriedly came in and said with cupped hands: "Your Majesty, General Tanchengguan has urgently reported that Yan Liang personally led tens of thousands of troops to the north. Today, after Shouchun, they are coming to Xuzhou with the intention of attacking.  I, Xu Bei, General Guan, ask the king to send troops to support quickly."

    Liu Bei, who was laughing wildly to himself, was startled by the urgent report and choked violently, barely able to catch his breath.

    ??Laughing wildly and selling the cigarette, Liu Bei turned to joy and surprise. His gray face was full of shock and surprise, and he murmured: "Yanthe thief is attacking Xuzhou again?"

    ?As expected.

    Sima Yi sighed secretly, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Yan Liang's back attack on Xuzhou is obviously to contain our army and support the enemy troops who landed in Liaodong, so that I will be attacked from both sides and cannot look at each other."

    "Zhongda, thenwhat should I do?" Liu Bei asked anxiously.

    The resourceful Sima Yi has now fallen silent.

    After pondering for a long time, Sima Yi sighed: "For today's plan, our army has only one choice."

    ¡­¡­

    Thousands of miles away, Xiapi City.

    Winter is already deep, and the weather in Xiapi is obviously much colder than that in Yingtian.

    After a first snowfall, Yan Liang stood at the top of the city covered with silver makeup. He raised his eyes and looked into the distance. As far as his eyes could see, everything was boundless.

    Footsteps sounded, and Pang Tong walked up to the top of the city with a bit of joy on his face.

    "Your Majesty, good news from Liaodong. Lu Ziming's expeditionary force successfully landed and captured Pingcheng in Xi'an. Now they have forced the surrender of Lelang and Daifang counties. Everything is starting well." There was a slight tremor of excitement in Pang Tong's tone.

    Yan Liang's emotions were also extremely agitated. She secretly applauded Lu Meng in her heart and wanted to do it herself.As expected, he was right. There was nothing wrong with using L¨¹ Meng as the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force.

    On the surface, Yan Liang was calm. He only nodded slightly and said: "Gongsun Kang and his friends should be stunned at this moment. They don't know what Liu Bei's current trend is."

    "As we expected in advance, Liu Bei learned that the king personally conquered Xuzhou and had already begun to withdraw his troops from the Liao River. Obviously, Liu Bei was more worried about the loss of the Central Plains." Pang Tong said with a smile.

    "Well, very good." Yan Liang nodded, "As soon as Liu Bei retreats, Gongsun Kang will definitely turn his head to attack our army. Send someone quickly to tell Ziming that there is no need to worry about the gains and losses of one city or one place. We must annihilate Gongsun as soon as possible.  Kang¡¯s effective force ensured control of Liaodong before Liu Bei¡¯s eastern expedition again.¡±

    Pang Tong took it for granted and immediately went to convey Yan Liang's order.

    After Pang Tong left, a silent ambition surged in Yan Liang's heart, like an undercurrent.

    At this time, Yan Liang stood with his hands behind his hands, looking to the north, and sneered: "Big-eared thief, I am waiting for you here. The decisive battle failed before, this time, we will fight happily."

    ps: The weather today is really horribly hot. The captain is extremely dizzy and cannot think straight. There will be no third update in the evening. Let the captain collect his thoughts.
