If the defense line that has been built with great effort is to try its best, or even shoot the last arrow and fight to the last person, then there will be no regrets if the position is lost.

But the Shu army only took a nap and the position was lost. All their efforts were wasted. What else would be less depressed?

At this moment, Hu Lie's expression was indeed extremely depressed. He originally boasted about Haikou in front of Sima Lun and vowed to guard the Eagle-billed Cliff and would never allow the Wei army to step onto the top of the mountain. People are in positions, and people are in positions and positions are dead.

But the result was an extremely slap in the face. Not to mention guarding the Eagle-billed Cliff, the Wei army did not even delay the Wei army for a while. The Eagle-billed Cliff was so straightforward that Hu Lie looked ashamed when facing Sima Lun, and he didn't even dare to raise his head.

In fact, the words cannot be said too much. If there was a crack in the ground at this moment, Hu Lie would have wished to get in. He would have no face to face Sima Lun again.

However, Sima Lun did not hold Hu Lie responsible anymore. First of all, there are objective reasons for the loss of Yingzui Cliff. Hu Lie only bears secondary responsibilities at most and does not kill him.

Secondly, now the enemy is in the right place, and it is time to use people. As one of the few generals under Sima Lun who can take on major responsibilities, Sima Lun still has a lot of reliance on him.

So Simalun did not deal with Hu Lie, but dispatched him a new position to guard the high ground on the left side of Guiniupo. If he fought well, he could lose his merits. If he was not fought well or even lost the position, Simalun would punish him for two crimes.

Hu Lie originally thought he was going to be in trouble this time, but he didn't expect that Sima Lun was so magnanimous that he did not hold him accountable at all. This naturally made Hu Lie extremely happy. He hurriedly thanked Sima Lun and made another bold statement.

Sima Lun snorted softly. Hu Lie was as brave as a fire and was brave in war, but one thing was not good, that was that he was too arrogant and talked too much. In fact, Sima Lun was too lazy to listen to his swearing here to show his loyalty, and he swung his back to him, so that Hu Lie immediately rushed to the high ground on the left.

The loss of Yingzui Cliff made the situation in Yanting suddenly become tense. Although the Wei army did not immediately launch an attack on Guiniupo after taking Yingzuiu Cliff, everyone knew that the Wei army's attack would come soon and the war was about to begin. Even if the Shu army was not fully prepared for combat, they had to be put on the shelves, and they had to fight if they didn't fight.

That's why Sima Lun did not bother with Hu Lie. It was important to ask him to quickly reach the left wing's position. Hu Lie brought back 1,500 people this time. Although not many, he could at least strengthen the left wing's defense.

Originally, the defense of the left wing was Sima Lun's most worried about. After Hu Lie rushed over, he could have filled such a loophole, and Guiniupo's defense was also back to the regular level.

The best-effect of Yingzui Cliff is actually just to delay the attack of the Wei army. Sima Lun never expected that Yingzui Cliff could block the Wei army. The biggest battle in this battle of Yanting will be carried out on Guiniupo. Whether the Guiniupo can be defended is the key to the Battle of Yanting.

The Battle of the King Ting will become the most critical part of the entire Battle of the Xiling. At this point, Sima Lun is responsible for Jiang Wei and does not tolerate any mistakes.

However, the defeat of Yingzui Cliff has a relatively large blow to the Shu army, especially in terms of morale, which does have a great impact. The best way to boost morale is naturally to win a battle and be able to repel the Wei army's attack, so as to boost the low morale.

But it is not easy to win a battle. This time, the Wei army launched a large-scale attack, and they had a great advantage in terms of military strength. Moreover, Sima Lun had many years of experience in fighting with the Wei army and had a clear understanding of the true combat effectiveness of the Wei army.

The army brought out by Cao Liang was very powerful in combat. When Sima's army fought against him, they lost the city and lost the land, and were defeated thousands of miles away, and they were no match for him at all. Otherwise, Sima Lun would not have been able to get the position of a loser.

Although Xiling has a dangerous terrain, it is definitely not easy to block the attack of the Wei army. However, Simalun is not a person who can be easily frightened by difficulties. When he surrendered to Shu in Longxi, he wanted to use the power of Shu to regain lost territory. Although he failed to do so, Simalun was still determined and still searched for opportunities, dreaming that one day he could really recover the Central Plains.

At this point, Sima Lun, Jiang Wei and Lu Kang were in common, so they were able to unite with sincerity. Although the three of them had different goals, Jiang Wei thought of supporting the Han Dynasty, Sima Lun thought of national hatred and family hatred, and Lu Kang thought of restoring the Wu Kingdom, but they had a common enemy, Cao Liang, and it was precisely because of Cao Liang's existence that they were closely connected.

The three of them obviously cannot hide their thoughts from others, but they are all smart people and do not need to point out this point, because at this stage, they have a common enemy, and only after defeating the enemy can they talk about their ideals.

It was normal for the three of them to break up with each other at that time, because at this moment, they were using each other. If they didn't do this, the three of them would be defeated by the Wei army. Now only by uniting and uniting, can they be qualified to compete with Cao Liang.

Even if it is a three-party alliance, if you really want to beat Cao Liang, there is not much hope. However, whether it is Jiang Wei, Lu Kang or Sima Lun, there is an obsession in your heart. It is this obsession that gives them the courage to move forward and the confidence to face dangers and difficulties.

Whether it is for Jiang Wei or Lu to resist Sima Lun, this battle is of extraordinary significance. If they win, they will be closer to the small goal in their hearts.

But if they lose, everything will be over. They will have no place to stand in Jingzhou. If they want to make a comeback, they will really be able to make a comeback.

Therefore, no matter who among the three, they were very hard-working. The attitude of the upper class determines everything. The army, which originally seemed like a storm, has now greatly improved its cohesion, and correspondingly, its combat effectiveness has also been significantly improved.

This is a good thing for Simalun. After all, what he is under his command is not only his direct troops, but also the army of Shu and Wu. How to integrate the troops in the three places is a problem that Simalun must consider, as well as the statements of Jiang Wei and Lu Kang, and these armies are completely under the command of Simalun.
