175. Inside and outside the city (please subscribe for a monthly ticket)

Cai Mao held great power in Jingzhou.

Except for being polite to Liu Biao, he never knew how to be polite to others.

Nowadays, Liu Bei has only a few generals. Even though Liu Bei has the title of General Zuo, he still looks down upon Liu Bei.

Are there too few generals without real power and Yuzhou pastors without real power in this world?

Of course, Huang Yueying also knows what Cai Mao is thinking, and she can only hope that there will be a way to ease the relationship between the two in the future.

…

The so-called etiquette before fighting is actually just common etiquette nowadays.

The main thing is to ask to see the emperor in the name of Liu Bei to see if the emperor can be released from the palace. If so, their hopes will be greater.

Xun Mansion.

Xun Yu saw the letter in his hand and said with a smile, "What a great general Zuo! At that time, I didn't know Liu Jun had such courage!"

"General Zuo is an extraordinary person. Otherwise, how could two brothers be so close to each other?" Jia Xu sighed. In fact, he quite admired Liu Bei.

The other party has worked hard all the way to achieve his current reputation and status. After all, he has a little more courage.

However, the Jingzhou Army and Liu Bei are involved... After this battle, Jingzhou may not be peaceful.

"Xunjun, how are you?"

"You are just a traitor and a traitor!" Xun Yu said.

The current situation in the world is so chaotic that it cannot be decided by the Ming Dynasty. As a result, these people all jumped out to oppose...

But, Concubine Dong Guifei, the Emperor...

Xun Yu thought for a while and then suppressed his thoughts.

It is difficult to pacify the world, so others should not hold back Cao Cao. He believes that Cao Cao can tolerate some problems, and everything can be discussed after the world is pacified.

"Where is the emperor..." Jia Xu asked.

"How can rebellious ministers and traitors meet the Emperor?"

…

By the afternoon.

There was still no movement on the top of the city.

Seeing this, Huang Yueying knew Xun Yu's choice.

Since the other party recognized Cao Cao, she could only give it a try. If she could really welcome the emperor to Jingzhou, I wonder how Xun Yu would deal with himself.

"According to the established plan, attack!"

Suddenly, the war drums sounded.

Huang Yueying directly handed over the battlefield command of the southern army to Liu Bei. After all, Liu Bei had two big killers, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Furthermore, she had no battlefield experience.

Emperor Zhaolie never relied on his brothers to achieve his future achievements. The other party himself was very capable of fighting.

Much more powerful than her little arms and legs.

The plan had been made long ago, so of course she could just wait.

…

"Trebuchet ready!"

"put!"

"put!"

"put!"

Countless stones, large and small, flew towards the Xuchang city wall like cannonballs, some falling inside the city and some outside the city wall.

Liu Bei was not in a hurry. He knew the plan and what he wanted was to disrupt the morale of the troops in the city.

Trebuchet, just right.

There is no need to let the soldiers go up and fight desperately at this time.

"Brother, when will this stone be struck?" Zhang Fei asked anxiously, holding a spear.

"Just hit it until people inside are panicked." Liu Bei smiled, "Third brother, do you want to play?"

"If I, Lao Zhang, go up, I must go directly to the city wall!"

"Don't worry." Liu Bei shook his head and did not agree.

…

On the city wall.

"General! Except for the trebuchets on the south side, there are enemy ladders climbing up the city on the other three sides!"

"Hmph! You're trying to be mysterious! How are the battles going on the other three sides?"

"It's very intense, we are short of manpower..."

"Deploy a hundred people each to go to the other three sides. Go quickly!"

"promise!"

Then, another stone fell in front of the person in charge of the city defense, and he had to continue squatting. At least for now, the attack from the south was not very powerful.

…

Liu Bei saw the movement on the south wall and immediately patted Zhang Fei on the shoulder, "Third brother, go ahead."

"Okay! Brother, be optimistic! I will definitely get this skill back for you!" Zhang Fei said excitedly, and then he rushed out, led his troops and horses, pushed the ladder, and rushed towards the southern city wall.

.

Next to him, Guan Yu was just stroking his beard.

He knew that the current situation meant that he was not really going to attack.

Since Wang Can has entered the city, it is better to wait for news about Wang Can.

"Brother, if the third brother really comes to the city..."

"Then go to the city." Liu Bei sighed, "However, it is not that easy."

"In the past two days, I asked Mr. Xiao why the plan was to surround Xuchang on all sides..."

"Why?"

"The young gentleman said that if one side is left, although it can induce all the famous families to flee from that side, Xun Yu will definitely not lead the emperor from that side."

Guan Yu frowned, then nodded, "Yes."

"Surrounded on all sides and attacking fiercely, it can actually provide opportunities for Mr. Zhongxuan to act, and... it can also allow these 'Hanchens' in the temple to clearly feel the power of the war. Otherwise, how can we let them

Are you anxious?"

Guan Yu nodded again without refuting.

Originally, their plan was to cooperate inside and outside.

Only by attacking fiercely from all sides can we deal with the people inside.

"When the third brother comes back later, the second brother, you can bring our troops and horses to pick him up."

"Listen to big brother!"

…

Outside Xuchang Palace.

Several officials joined forces and stood outside the palace gate to invite the emperor.

However, he was stopped by guards.

"Get out of the way! You know that stopping us will delay important events!"

The guard said nothing.

"Now the war is breaking out outside the city, but the emperor doesn't know about it. General Zuo wants to see the emperor! If the emperor comes forward and listens to General Zuo's statement of grievances, this battle may be avoided, you know!"

"The troops outside the city are almost ten times as many as ours! Get out of the way! If the war is delayed, the city is destroyed, and tens of thousands of people are exposed to the flames of war... it will be your fault!"

"Get out of the way!"

"Get out of here quickly!"

Although these officials were not very good at fighting, they were quite sharp-tongued, which frightened the guards.

There was indeed a fight outside, and they knew it.
