Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1462

Chapter 1460: Cai Mao's Rebellion

This was already the third time Yue Fei attacked Jiangling. After the previous two failed, Yue Fei studied Jiangling's city defense seriously and meticulously, and his understanding of Jiangling City was absolutely terrifying.

Deng Yu was the prefect of Nanjun appointed by Liu Xiu, but even his understanding of Jiangling City may not be as good as that of Yue Fei who is an outsider.

After Deng Yu took over Jiangling's defense, he immediately made changes to the defense. After all, Yue Fei had already seen the arrangement last time. If he didn't change it, he would definitely be targeted by Yue Fei.

Deng Yu's thinking was not wrong, the fault was that he didn't change it thoroughly enough, he just made adjustments according to Liu Xiu's arrangement, but the core was still what Liu Xiu left behind.

Not only does Yue Fei know Liu Xiu's arrangement well, but he already knows a lot about it, and Deng Yu only adjusts the defense, but does not change the core arrangement left by Liu Xiu, which is also falling into Yue Fei's hands .

Under Yue Fei's personal command of the siege, the Qin army often pointed at the weak points of the Chu army, and there were a group of fierce generals to carry out assaults, as well as many sharp weapons such as catapults, kerosene bombs, etc. One to one record.

Deng Yu also noticed that there was a problem with the defense. Yue Fei knew Jiangling's defenses very well. If he hadn't set up the defenses himself and hadn't told anyone, he would have suspected that there were spies from the Qin army around him.

Now that the battle has begun, it is impossible for Deng Yu to change his defenses before the battle, not to mention that it will be too late, even if it is too late, Yue Fei will not give him a chance, and the result will definitely be even worse.

Under the fierceness of the Qin army for fifteen consecutive days, the Qin army suffered a total of [-] casualties, [-] auxiliary troops were lost, and the Chu army was also uncomfortable, losing nearly [-] troops.

The Qin army with a rich family has a total strength of 60 troops, and the loss of [-] to [-] troops will soon be able to make up for it.

But the Chu army is different. The Chu army, which has a total of only 15 troops, is now fighting against the four princes at the same time.

There were only [-] defenders in Jiangling City, and a quarter of them were lost in just fifteen days of defending the city. The strong men who helped defend the city also lost a lot, and this also caused the morale of the entire army to drop.

Deng Yu realized that this was not going to work. If he didn't think of a way to solve it, Jiangling City would be destroyed sooner or later. After all, the Chu army couldn't compete with the Qin army.

Before the war, Liu Xiu gave Deng Yu an army of [-] and asked Deng Yu to stick to it for a year.

Originally, Deng Yu thought that with a main force of [-] troops and a fortified city like Jiangling, it would not be a problem to hold Yue Fei for a year under the defense of the city.

A year later, the lord Liu Xiuding had occupied Jiaozhou, and reinforcements would naturally come to rescue Jiangling.

Deng Yu admitted that he thought the problem too simply, and never expected Yue Fei to attack so fiercely from the beginning, and he was determined to use this kind of play that hurts both sides to fight him.

If he continued to consume like this, Deng Yu might not be able to hold on to Jiangling City for a year, not even for three months.

As a last resort, Deng Yu had to take a risk and change the core defense layout overnight, and this change was carried out by the whole city.

It's okay to talk about it for a day or two, but if it takes a long time, how can it be possible to hide it from Yue Fei.

After realizing Deng Yu's intentions, Yue Fei attacked the city overnight, hoping to take advantage of Deng Yu's arrangement and directly smash Jiangling City in one fell swoop.

Deng Yu also noticed Yue Fei's intentions, and personally led all the generals and death squads to defend the city overnight, and completed the defense changes before all the death squads were killed.

Although Jiangling City has been replaced with a new defensive layout, many of the defensive equipment on the towers have been destroyed by the Qin army in the previous process.

Now that Jiangling has changed its layout, although its defensive power is stronger than before, it is only a little bit, and it does not matter whether it can completely reverse the war situation, but it also increases the loss of the Qin army.

Outside the city, Yue Fei was still directing the onslaught, but inside Jiangling City, a conspiracy was plotting.

In Jiangling City, in a certain courtyard of the Cai family, some Jingzhou families gathered together, and the leader was Cai Mao.

"Everyone, Liu Xiu overestimated his capabilities and started a war with the four princes at the same time. He was doomed to be destroyed, but we can't bury him with him. We should have made plans earlier." Cai Mao said with a gloomy face, regretting the past Support Liu Xiu's decision to fight against Qin Hao.

What did the Jingzhou family help Liu Xiu so much?Isn't it just to keep the land in your hands.

But what about Liu Xiu?Immediately turning his face and denying his account after the matter is done, not only wanting to take away the hidden population of the family, but now even wanting the land, this is simply a white-eyed wolf.

Cai Mao was once Liu Xiu's biggest supporter, that is, he united with the dissatisfied family of Qin Hao to help Liu Xiu, but he never thought that Liu Xiu not only was ungrateful, but even his Cai family was also cleaned up together, and he was even allowed to do it himself. Host it yourself.

At that time, Cai Hao wanted to rebel, but he didn't dare, because Liu Xiu dared to hand over the power to him, and there would be countermeasures. If he rebelled, the Cai family would definitely be wiped out.

Cai Mao resisted the idea of ​​rebellion, and personally went out to suppress those families who were supported by Liu Xiu because of his wooing, which also made him, the former leader of the Jingzhou family, turn against most of the Jingzhou family.

Cai Mao endured the humiliation until now, in order to wait for today's perfect opportunity to personally destroy Liu Xiu, whom he personally promoted.

"Everyone, express your opinion, whether to bury Liu Xiu with him, or find another way out."

Hearing what Cai Hao said, these families were also very moved, but due to Liu Xiu's long-standing prestige, when his defeat was not yet a foregone conclusion, no one dared to make arbitrarily bets.

"Humph……"

Seeing this, Cai Mao snorted dissatisfiedly, and said coldly: "Have you all forgotten how Liu Xiu treated us?

In order to help Liu Xiu, our Jingzhou aristocratic family invested more than half of our family property in money, food, and people, but how did Liu Xiu repay us?
Suppress, suppress, or suppress. "

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately aroused the indignation of many people present.

"Lord Cai is right. Our Jingzhou family didn't feel sorry for Liu Xiu, but Liu Xiu did it for our Jingzhou family."

"Yes, we can't go on like this, we must resist and let Liu Xiu know how powerful our Jingzhou family is."

……

Seeing the excitement of the crowd, Cai Mao also showed a smile, and then smiled wryly: "At the beginning, I, Cai Mao, was blind and mistrusted Liu Xiu, which harmed all the families. Now the opportunity has come, and I, Cai Mao, must correct this mistake."

"Master Cai, just say what to do? We all listen to you."

"Yep……"

A cold light flashed in Cai Mao's eyes: "Concentrate the clan soldiers, open the city gate, and give Jiangling City to the Qin army."
