According to the previous discussion between Liu Bei and Sun Quan, the army would have quietly moved southward in batches from Zhijiang, then quickly crossed the Yangtze River and headed straight for Lexiang.
After recapturing Lexiang, the troops were divided into east and west, with Sun Quan guarding Lexiang and Liu Bei guarding Yi Dao.
The two sides jointly constructed an iron-clad defense line on the Yangtze River.
However, the plan is perfect, but it cannot be so ideal during the implementation process.
After Liu Ke received Ling Tong¡¯s letter, he was keenly aware of the other party¡¯s plan to escape.
Naturally, they immediately launched a fierce attack on the Sun and Liu coalition forces.
In this way, even if the Sun-Liu coalition forces had already withdrawn part of their troops in advance.
But because Liu Ke¡¯s attack was so strong, the troops who were originally thought to be able to hold on for a long time were quickly defeated.
Especially some teams have been defeated by Liu Ke's army from top to bottom.
In order to survive, they could only follow the soldiers and horses in front of them and run to the edge of the Yangtze River.
So when the front troops of Liu Bei and Sun Quan were still preparing to cross the river, they were horrified to hear the enemy's killing sounds getting closer and closer. Their expressions instantly became serious.
Although they were ready to cross the river, they knew that if they still carried out the original plan at this moment.
I¡¯m afraid it won¡¯t be long before Liu Ke reaches the shore.
By then, except for a small number of people who will be able to successfully board the ship, the others will be blocked by the other party on the riverside and will inevitably lose their way of survival.
Therefore, after intense thinking, they had no choice but to change their strategy.
Zhou Yu said hastily: "Lord, everyone, looking at the current situation, the original plan cannot continue.
The only plan for now is to go downstream along the Yangtze River and go straight to Jiangling.
Jiangling City has a high wall and can definitely block Liu Ke's offensive. Only by waiting for the opportunity to cross the river at that time can we ensure that everything is safe.
Otherwise, the army will be destroyed here! "
Liu Bei and Fazheng looked at each other and could only nod helplessly and accepted the other party's proposal.
Although Liu Bei really wanted to return to Yiling upstream, in the current situation, the troops from both sides had long been mixed together in the process of fleeing.
"If we suddenly divide our troops without explaining it to the rear army, those people will not know how to act."
Instead, they became like headless flies and were eventually defeated by Liu Ke one by one.
So the current situation has forced them to continue to cooperate.
Therefore, after a brief consideration, Liu Bei immediately gave up crossing the river together with Sun Quan's troops and fled to Jiangling.
Although the soldiers who caught up behind him didn't know why their lord changed his mind, they continued to follow him out of instinct.
This finally prevented the army from fleeing in all directions after being attacked by Liu Ke.
After Liu Ke's army defeated the enemy in the rear, they followed the enemy's escape route and continued to pursue Jiangling.
However, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu did not know that the situation in Jiangling was also difficult at this moment.
After Zhang Zhao saw the fall of Lexiang, he was anxious and immediately sent Zhang Ya to lead the few remaining troops in the city to fight for it desperately.
In the end, only two thousand soldiers and horses were left in the city to continue garrisoning.
Originally, he thought that with Sun Quan's main army on the front line, he didn't have to worry about being attacked by enemy troops.
After all, even if Sun Quan was defeated, they were the ones who arrived first, not the enemy.
But Zhang Zhao only considered the enemies in the direction of Zhijiang, but did not pay attention to other directions.
It turns out that at this moment, there is a more powerful army coming here above the Han River.
This is the land and water coalition of Lu Bu and Gan Ning.
After they successfully captured Jingcheng, they continued to pursue the fleeing Xu Sheng and Huang Gai to Jingling.
However, the conditions in Jingling are much worse than those in Jingcheng. There are dense water networks everywhere here, and Lu Bu's cavalry has no conditions to deploy.
But the opponent can rely on the city's advantage to concentrate on dealing with Gan Ning's navy.
Therefore, the two sides fought here for many days, but it was still difficult to break through Jingling.
Just when Lu Bu and Gan Ning had helpless expressions and were discussing the next step, they suddenly received an important piece of information.
They investigated and learned that Sun Quan¡¯s main force had left Jiangling and headed for Zhijiang.
The reason why Jiangling was not provoked originally was because this city, as Sun Quan's base camp, was very tightly guarded.
?But now that all the elites are out, the city must be empty.
Therefore, Lu Bu took the initiative and said: "Xingba, in my opinion, otherwise we would not waste time in Jingling.
Simply turn to attack Jiangling. This will not only exceed the opponent's expectations, but also cut off Sun Quan's retreat and help Zhijiang's battle.
As long as Sun Quan's main force is defeated, won't the little Jingling surrender? "
After all, Gan Ning, as the main force attacking Jingling, had been spending a long time outside the city.
He was suddenly asked to give up, and he still felt a little unwilling to do so.
But I heard that Lu Bu's analysis was reasonable, and even if Jiangling could not be captured, it could threaten the opponent's retreat and force Sun Quan to retreat.
Considering all this, the benefits of attacking Jiangling are far greater than those of Jingling.
Therefore, Gan Ning finally agreed.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????mbeffmbllyance
Lu Bu's cavalry immediately marched to Jiangling first, arriving in less than two days after a journey of hundreds of miles.
"But he has been following Liu Ke for so long, and he is surrounded by resourceful people, and he has learned to be smart even through what he has heard and seen.
Therefore, Lu Bu did not attack immediately, but sent people to check the situation first.
However, when he got the information, Lu Bu was overjoyed.
"Hahahaha! God helps me, Xingba, I won't wait for you this time. I looked at the performance of your navy before, but this time it's finally my turn, Lu Bu!"
So, Lu Bu immediately launched an attack on Jiangling.
Zhang Zhao is currently wandering around the city anxiously, waiting for good news from the direction of Lexiang.
He not only sent Zhang Ya out, but also mobilized the garrison from Jiangjin downstream to Lexiang.
The army has been out for a few days, so there should be some news.
Just when he was worried, a soldier suddenly ran over.
Zhang Zhao thought the other party was here to announce the good news, but when he heard his words, he was immediately horrified.
Zhang Zhao hurriedly ran to the top of the city to check, and sure enough he saw Lu Bu's army arrayed outside the city.
After seeing him, Lu Bu pointed his halberd at Fang Tian and shouted: "The defenders in the city listen, I am General Pingdong, Marquis of Wen, Lu Fengxian.
If you are wise, quickly open up the city and surrender, otherwise the day when the city is broken will also be the day of certain destruction! "
Hearing the other party announce his home address, Zhang Zhao was so frightened that his whole body trembled.
He had heard of Lu Bu's name a long time ago. Although it was the first time they met him now, he could still see the overwhelming murderous intention in the opponent's military formation.
Zhang Zhao also knew that he could not stop such soldiers and horses. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
