    "Retreat, retreat quickly!" Liao Hua was shocked and quickly ordered the soldiers to retreat.

    But he was too impatient just now. The soldiers swarmed to the city. It is not easy to retreat now.

    Trampling each other, coupled with the ruthless harvesting of arrows from the city head, when the soldiers evacuated beyond the range of the arrows, Liao Hua and Zhou Cang saw that their hearts were bleeding.

    In just the blink of an eye, five to six hundred people were lost!

    "HaLiao Hua Zhoucang, the Honshu Mu has been waiting here for you for a long time!"

    "Liu Cong?"

    Liu Cong, Pang Tong, and Huang Zhong appeared on the top of the city.

    "Liao Huazhou Cang, Liu Bei is gone. I advise you to be practical, lay down your weapons, and surrender to Benzhou Mu. Benzhou Mu guarantees that you two can be married and have a successful career!"

    "Liu Zhoumu, thank you for your kindness, but loyal ministers have nothing to do with the two masters. Since the two of us have surrendered to Uncle Liu Huang, we will only fight to the death for him!" Liao Hua said loudly, "Withdraw!"

    "Lord, let the last generals leave the city and annihilate them all in one fell swoop!" Huang Zhong asked for the order.

    "There is no rush for Han Sheng. Liao Hua and Zhou Cang only have so few soldiers and horses, and it will be easy to annihilate them. But in this case, Liu Bei will probably not return to Jiangxia!"

    "What do you mean, my lord?" Pang Tong didn't understand what Liu Cong meant either.

    As soon as they arrived in Jiangxia, they learned that Wei Yan had captured Xiakou. They thought that Jiangling was now very important to Guan Yu, so they immediately led their troops to attack.  But I didn't expect that Guan Yu would be so careless and Jiangling had no soldiers to guard it.

    After Liu Cong entered the city, Liao Hua and Zhou Cang led their troops and were caught off guard.  Pang Tong also felt that now was a good opportunity to annihilate Liao Hua and Zhou Cang.

    "Liu Bei has a skill that others don't have. Did he know it when he was promoted to the Yuan Dynasty?" Liu Cong smiled and asked.

    "What ability?"

    "Run away!"

    "Escape? Ha" Pang Tong and Huang Zhong laughed almost at the same time.

    "Cao Cao tried to kill Liu Bei many times, but he always let him run away. This Liu Bei, you can ask Liu Bei to run away!"

    "Liu Paopao? What my lord said is wonderful!"

    "Ha" Several people laughed.

    "Liu Bei has been defeated repeatedly in battles, and he has a stubborn character and refuses to give in. In addition, he is hypocritical and can easily confuse people's hearts. If he escapes, it will be very troublesome in the future. Now Jiangxia has become an isolated city, and I am worried that he will directly  escape!"

    "My lord is far-sighted, I can't wait!" Pang Tong once again admired Liu Cong's foresight from the bottom of his heart, "Then we will hold our troops for the time being. After Liu Bei learns the news about Jiangxia, he will definitely withdraw his troops from Nanjun. After he enters Xiling, we will  Encirclement!"

    "good!"

    In Jiangling City, Liu Cong continued to receive messages from the Skynet Camp, keeping track of the trends on the battlefield at all times.

    Liu Bei attacked Nanjun but did not gain any advantage.

    After his army arrived, he first sent people to persuade Huo Jun to surrender, but Huo Jun flatly refused.  Then Guan Ping, Zhao Yun, and Chen Dao were asked to lead their armies to attack the city in turns. However, they all lost their troops and generals, and they could not even climb up to the top of Nanjun City.

    After seeing Huo Jun's ability to defend the city and losing about 5,000 soldiers, Liu Bei finally stopped attacking and adopted various strategies to lure Huo Jun out of the city.

    But Huo Jun issued a death order to stick to the tower and no one was allowed to leave the city, leaving Liu Bei with nothing to do.

    Finally, Liu Bei secretly wrote a letter to Xiang Lang, the governor of Nanjun, trying to drive a wedge between Xiang Lang and Huo Jun.  However, Xiang Lang and Huo Jun had already become close friends and ignored Liu Bei at all.

    Liu Cong was very satisfied after learning about these situations. He knew that the time for Liu Bei to withdraw his troops was coming soon.

    "Report to the lord, Liao Hua and Zhou Cang led their troops to break camp and evacuate to Xiling!"

    "Hurry up and ask the military advisor to come over!"

    "No!"

    After a while, Pang Tong came to the county magistrate's office.

    "My lord, is it because of Liao Hua and Zhou Cang's withdrawal of troops?"

    "Yes, Shi Yuan thinks, what does this mean?"

    "Liao Hua and Zhou Cang thought Jiangling had no troops to garrison, so he came with three thousand soldiers and horses. But after discovering that our Han army had occupied it, it was difficult to get off the tiger. If you want to attack the city, you can use eggs to hit rocks, but if you want to go back, there is no order from Guan Yu. Now  Guan Yu must have received orders from Liu Bei and is preparing to shrink his troops and fight us! And my lord also wants to defeat Liu Bei in one battle, so we will wait a little longer!"

    "Okay, let's wait a few more days, but we must order the soldiers to be ready to march at any time!"

    "No!"

      The next day, Liu Cong received the news that Guan Yu led five hundred soldiers to leave Xiling City and went to Nanjun to join Liu Bei's army.

    On the third day, Liu Bei finally broke out of camp, and his army marched toward Jiangxia.

    Liu Cong immediately sent an order and the army set off, slowly pushing towards Xiling.

    "Lord, this matter is a bit strange. Liu Bei's entry into Jiangxia is a dead end. Even if he can't see clearly, Kong Ming will definitely see it clearly. Why should he get in?" When he was about to arrive outside Xiling City, Pang Tong said his  Confuse.

    "Xiling City is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Liu Bei has more than 10,000 troops. There are still 5,000 in the city. Including those who Liao Hua and Zhou Cang retreated, the total is about 20,000. It is almost impossible to break the city. Do Liu Bei have to stand still and wait for reinforcements?  ?" Liu Cong has been thinking about this question.

    You know, Liu Bei never puts himself in danger!

    "It's possible!" Pang Tong nodded, "Did Kong Ming go directly to Chibi?"

    Zhuge Liang has a good relationship with Lu Su, and his brother Zhuge Jin is also in Jiangdong. It is normal to go to Jiangdong to borrow troops.

    "Are there any troops available in Jiangdong?" Liu Cong has been paying attention to the battle between Sun Quan and Cao Cao.

    In Hefei, Sun Quan's army pressed forward. Zhang Liao, Li Dian, and Le Jin defended the city, but Sun Quan could not attack it for a long time.

    Cao Cao only sent 10,000 reinforcements to Hefei. His purpose became increasingly clear, but Sun Quan had not yet sent more troops to Guangling and Wu Commandery.

    At this time, whether it is Lu Su of Chibi or Zhou Yu of Chaisang, do they dare to send troops to Jingzhou?

    "My lord, let's surround Liu Bei in Xiling City first, and then we'll see what happens in the east of the Yangtze River. When we get there, the soldiers will come to stop him, and the water will come to cover him!"

    "Okay! Send an order to the army to speed up and have Wei Yan's troops leave Xiakou and encircle Xiling!"

    "No!"

    Soon, the army arrived outside Xiling City. Together with Wei Yan's army, there were more than 30,000 people in total. They camped for more than ten miles, with banners covering the sun.

    The next day, Liu Cong ordered five thousand soldiers and horses, and came to the city with Pang Tong and Wei Yan.

    Liu Cong, surrounded by three hundred soldiers, took a few steps forward and shouted loudly.

    "Soldiers on the top of the city, listen, let Liu Bei come out and answer!"

    Zhao Yun, Liao Hua, and Zhou Cang appeared on the top of the city.

    "Liu Zhoumu, my lord is busy with official duties. If he wants to attack the city, I will wait at the top of the city!" Zhao Yun said loudly.

    "Hmph! The big-eared thief is quite arrogant!" Liu Cong was very angry when he heard this. "Zhao Yun, go back and tell Liu Bei that my father conquered Jingzhou with one blow and one shot. What qualifications does he have?"  Let¡¯s go! If that¡¯s the case, then this Jiangxia is his burial place!¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
