Chapter 963 The Prestige of Xiangjiang

However, Your Majesty doesn't need to be too concerned, if you can capture Pan Wushuang and Zhang Yide right now, as the two of them, you can force Zhuge Kongming to throw a mouse! "

When Cao Cao heard the words, his eyes flickered, and he looked at the high mountains not far away, and murmured.

"If you can get Pan Wushuang and Zhang Yide, two peerless generals, you can win 20 soldiers alone. But I'm afraid I'm willing to do it!"

When I was young, the big ship leaned against the mountain.Cao Cao led a group of civil and military soldiers to disembark slowly.

Let's say, Le Jin was chasing and killing Pan Ping with his troops, when he reached the halfway up the mountain, suddenly a general galloped towards him and shouted after him.

"Wen Qian doesn't need to chase anymore, the king ordered the whole army to rest. Half an hour later, the three armies went up the mountain and captured Pan Wushuang, Zhang Yide and other thieves!!"

Hearing the words, Le Jin stopped abruptly, looked back, and saw that Yu Jin was galloping on his horse, and turned around resentfully, thinking to himself.

"Little thief, you are already a turtle in the urn, sooner or later I will teach you how powerful I am, Le Wenqian!"

Le Jin followed Yu Jin and rushed back to the foot of the mountain.At this time, there was no fighting at the bottom of the mountain, and all the Jingzhou army's resisters had been wiped out.The foot of the mountain was densely packed with soldiers and horses of Wei, and Cao Cao came out slowly under the support of the generals.After Dian Wei and Xu Chu reported, Cao Cao turned his eyes to Le Jin.Le Jin knelt on the ground and reported the past.Hearing this, Cao Cao grinned.

"Haha! I didn't expect that there would be such a brave young major general in the Jingzhou army, and this time they happened to be captured together!"

At this time, Guo Jia, who was riding a four-wheeled vehicle, drove out of the crowd under the support of a group of soldiers, and laughed.

"Hehe. I'm afraid this is not what the king expected. Both Pan Wushuang and Zhang Yide are loyal men, and they are also sworn brothers with big ears. These two will definitely fight to the death. They would rather die in battle than become a king. The prisoner!"

Cao Cao was not angry when he heard the words, he laughed.

"If so, Gu is using this to threaten Zhuge Kongming!"

Cao Cao's eyes suddenly flashed, and he looked at Guo Jia. The two eyes were secretly communicating, and they seemed to have the same idea.

Let's say that Pan Ping led a group of remnant soldiers to catch up to the top of the mountain, and just after walking out of the dense forest, suddenly a thunderous roar rang in his ears.Before Pan Ping came back to his senses, he saw Zhang Fei thrusting the spear fiercely.

"Third Brother, stop quickly, the one who comes is Frank!"

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Fei stopped the snake spear suddenly, and looked around, and it was indeed Pan Ping.Zhang Fei's face showed a bit of joy. Seeing that Pan Ping's armor was in tatters and there were many bloody mouths all over his body, he could tell that he had experienced several fierce battles.Zhang Fei then showed a little surprise, thinking that Pan Ping was able to escape under the attack of so many Wei soldiers, he really was a young hero.Pan Ping broke into a cold sweat when he was attacked by Zhang Fei. If his adoptive father hadn't called out in time, he might have died under Zhang Fei's snake spear.Pan Ping concentrated his attention and stabilized his mind, then bowed to Zhang Fei respectfully.Zhang Fei silently nodded, then looked at the hundreds of remnants behind Pan Ping, his thick eyebrows furrowed, and he asked in a low voice.

"Frankly, are these soldiers and horses left in our army to escape?"

When Pan Ping heard this, his eyes showed a bit of guilt, and he apologized.

"The last general is incompetent, the bandit army is numerous and powerful, the last general can only lead these hundreds of troops out of the encirclement, most of the rest have surrendered to the bandit army, those who do not want to surrender must have been wiped out by the bandit army!"

Zhang Fei's face turned cold when he heard the words, and he gritted his teeth angrily and shouted.

"Those unrighteous bastards, if I see them in the future, I will teach them to die!!!"

As soon as Zhang Fei finished speaking, Pan Feng stepped forward, his face was calm, his eyes were shining brightly, and he said in a concentrated voice.

"This is the end of the matter. We don't need to care about those unjust people. Most of the bandit army is at the foot of the mountain. I think they will be besieged and killed up the mountain soon. We need to make early preparations to prepare for a protracted battle with the bandit army until The military division sent reinforcements to come!"

Even with the current situation, Pan Feng still has not given up.At this time, together with the hundreds of remnants brought by Pan Ping, there were only about [-] Jingzhou soldiers on the hill.

The dark sky was gradually driven away by the bright sun, and at dawn, the sun shone on the water of the Xiangjiang River everywhere, reflecting the bright and colorful brilliance of Taoism.At first glance, it looks really good.But for Pan Feng and other Jingzhou generals, dawn is far more dangerous than night.When daylight comes, it will be difficult for them to hide, and most of the Wei army will be surrounded and slaughtered up the mountain soon.

The lives of Pan Feng, Zhang Fei and other generals were hanging by a thread, and it was at five o'clock last night.In Xiangyang City, Zhuge Liang stayed up all night, waiting for the return of the troops on the top of the city.Suddenly there was a huge sound of dike collapsing, and the huge sound wave rushed straight to Xiangyang City, and then there were waves of sweeping water waves one after another.In Xiangjiang, if something terrible happened, the defenders on the city heard of it, and all of them changed their expressions drastically and panicked.Zhuge Liang's eyes widened, his face was full of infinite horror, and then he seemed to sense something extremely frightening, and he cried out in surprise.

"Xiangjiang!! Xiangjiang!!!"

Zhuge Liang drank twice, and immediately thought in his mind that half a month ago, there was continuous heavy rain, and the water in the Xiangjiang River must have been high.At this time, the bandit army must have used the water of the Xiangjiang River to flood [-] soldiers and horses of their own army!

Zhuge Liang's brain turned, and ripples appeared in his bright eyes. The news of Guo Fengxiao's death came from the news of Guo Fengxiao's death in the past month, and he recalled them one by one.Zhuge Liang quickly figured out Guo Jia's plan, and cried out again.

"Guo Fengxiao is indeed not dead! Such a profound strategy must be what he thought!"

Zhuge Liang knew in his heart that Cao Cao's repeated victories within half a month were deliberately done by Cao Cao to make him relax, thinking that Guo Jia was really dead.And he would take it for granted that Cao Cao was blinded by hatred and attacked Xiangyang City at all costs.Then he thought that Cao Cao's troops had suffered a great loss and the situation became difficult, so he regained his sanity and withdrew his troops.

In an instant, Zhuge Liang came to his senses, his face full of remorse.Ma Liang, who was behind Zhuge Liang, just heard loud noises coming from the Xiangjiang River, and then heard Zhuge Liang's exclamation repeatedly, seemed to have guessed it, and his expression changed drastically.

"Could it be!!"

Ma Liang's eyes widened, his heart twitched, and his face was full of horror.Suddenly Zhuge Liang turned around suddenly, his face was full of impatience, how could he be as calm as usual, and hurriedly said to Ma Liang.

"Ji Chang quickly pass my order, gather [-] troops, and prepare to rush to help!!!"

As soon as Zhuge Liang's order fell, Ma Liang confirmed what he was thinking, turned around and ran away in a panic, and conveyed Zhuge Liang's order to the defenders on the city.

After a while, the whole Xiangyang city seemed to be in turmoil, and a group of troops gathered quickly. Zhuge Liang rushed in front of the army, ordered the soldiers to open the city gate, and wanted to lead the army out of the city.Sun Qian, Yi Ji and other counselors rushed over. Seeing that Zhuge Liang wanted to lead the army, Sun Qian hurriedly persuaded him.

"Wait a minute, military commander! You are the leader of the three armies, how can you personally risk yourself!? If there is an emergency, who will guard Jingzhou!?"

When Zhuge Liang heard the words, his bright eyes narrowed, and he shouted sharply.

"The thieves released the water of the Xiangjiang River, flooding my [-] troops. At this time, most of the [-] soldiers will be wiped out. The two generals Pan and Zhang are in danger. The two generals Pan and Zhang are sworn brothers. , live and die together, if he is captured by the old thief Cao, what face will he have to see the lord in the morning!!?"

Sun Gan's face was shocked when he heard the words, he seemed to understand the pros and cons of it, and he didn't dare to speak again.At this moment, Ma Liang was very calm and persuaded Zhuge Liang.

"Military commander, don't be impatient, and listen to Liang's words. The old thief Cao has planned so hard that he didn't hesitate to sacrifice nearly [-] soldiers and horses. If he sets up this situation, he will definitely lay a net and destroy our army in one fell swoop. I'm afraid that at this time, even if Pan The two generals, Zhang and Zhang, have not yet been captured, and they are also heavily surrounded by the old thief Cao. If the old thief Cao sees the army division and the reinforcements rushing to him, he suddenly wakes up and orders the soldiers to surround and kill them. What can I do? , the Xiangjiang River was flooded for ten miles around. Our army has no wings, how can we rush to rescue!?"

After Zhuge Liang heard this, he came to his senses and quickly dispatched several soldiers, ordering Sun Qian to lead them to prepare the ships.Sun Qian took the order, not daring to neglect in the slightest, and went quickly.

When he was young, Zhuge Liang slowly settled down, calmed down, and sat under the horse, pondering.Although Yi Ji, Mi Zhu, Mi Fang and others were very anxious, they did not dare to disturb them.Ma Liang saw Zhuge Liang calm down, and the worry in his eyes faded a bit.

Immediately, Xiangyang City fell into a strange dead silence.I don't know how long it took, Zhuge Liang's bright eyes became clear, and he was no longer anxious.Seeing this, Yi Ji's face brightened, knowing that Zhuge Liang must have come up with a plan, he hurriedly asked.

"The military division has a plan to rescue the two generals Pan and Zhang?"

Zhuge Liang shook his head silently when he heard the words, and spoke in a concentrated voice.

"As Ji Chang said, the Xiangjiang River was flooded for a radius of ten miles. The old thief has been preparing for a long time. He must have prepared more boats earlier to sail in the flood without hindrance. But our army was not prepared. Although Gongyou is leading my life now, Going to prepare ships, but time is tight, I am afraid it will be difficult to find too many ships for our army. In this way, fighting in the water will be very disadvantageous to our army. If we want to prepare adequately, it will take at least half a month. In this way, I am afraid The two generals Pan and Zhang died long ago due to food shortages. The current battle situation is extremely unfavorable to our army, and there is nothing we can do for a while."

Hearing the words, Yi Ji's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed in surprise.

"If that's the case, why don't we just watch the two generals Pan and Zhang being captured and killed by the old thieves!?"

Zhuge Liang's eyes sank, and he said to Yiji with a calm face.

"Uncle Ji, be safe and don't be impatient. According to Liang's prediction, the old thief Cao has always loved his talents as much as his life. If it is not a last resort, he will not kill the two generals Pan and Zhang. The two generals Pan and Zhang are both extremely brave. If old thief Cao wants to capture him, it will not be easy. We still have time to think of a plan to rescue him!"

Seeing that Zhuge Liang suddenly became unhurried, Mi Fang said to Zhuge Liang as if he was in a hurry.

"But right now, the two generals Pan and Zhang are bound to be heavily surrounded by bandits. Both of them are bloody heroes. If they see that the reinforcements are coming late, it's hard to hold on. They will fight to the death with the bandits, what should I do?"

As soon as Mi Fang said this, all the officials in Jingzhou also echoed.Zhuge Liang slowly closed his eyes, pondered for a while, then suddenly opened his eyes again, looked at the ministers, and said in a concentrated voice.

"You don't need to worry too much. Liang has already made up his mind. When Gongyou finds the boat, Liang will go there himself for a while, old thief!"

Let's say that on a high mountain near the Xiangjiang River, all the troops and horses of the Wei Army have finished resting.As soon as Cao Cao's order fell, the Wei army from various ministries spread all over the mountains and fields, encircling the top of the mountain in groups.There were bursts of stomping sounds like heaven and earth cracking, and there were continuous violent noises.

Pan Feng, Zhang Fei and other defeated generals rested on the top of the mountain for a while, when they suddenly heard loud shouts of killing coming from the bottom of the mountain, and they approached at an extremely fast speed.Zhang Fei's spirit was shaken, his facial features became distorted in an instant, and he immediately ordered eight hundred soldiers to throw the huge boulder he found not long ago down the mountain.Eight hundred soldiers listened to the order, and one after another lifted huge boulders and cast them down the mountain road.

At the same time, Xu Chu and Dian Wei each led a thousand spearmen as the vanguard and galloped up the mountain.

All of a sudden, there was only the sound of rumbling animals rolling, and there were bursts of bangs from the mountain.When Xu Chu heard this, his complexion changed drastically, and he shouted loudly to order the soldiers to avoid.After a while, I saw huge rolling stones rushing towards me.Wei Bing dodged hastily, many soldiers couldn't dodge in time, they were knocked over and fell on their backs, screaming incessantly.Cao Cao, who was waving his army forward behind him, heard a loud noise, and his expression changed immediately. He quickly ordered the army to stop, and ordered two teams of swords and shields to form a shield wall to block it.As soon as Cao Cao gave the order, the swords and shields of the two teams moved quickly, holding shields one after another to build huge shield walls.Dozens of boulders rolled towards and hit the shield wall, making a huge metallic roar. One by one boulders burst open, and then pieces of Wei soldiers' swords and shields flew away.Cao Cao's face was gloomy, and he muttered in his mouth that he was dying and struggling, and then he ordered the army's swords and shields to rush forward, forming a shield formation to cover the advance of the army.

The [-] Jingzhou soldiers on the mountain kept throwing stones under Zhang Fei's orders.Hearing the constant roar at the foot of the mountain, Pan Ping rushed to the foot of the mountain to have a look. Seeing that Wei Jun was covering with swords, shields and hands, his face became anxious, and he rushed to report to Zhang Fei.Zhang Fei's face changed when he heard the words.Pan Feng's face was resolute and calm, and he spoke harshly to Zhang Fei.

"Third brother, you guard the position. Tan Zhi and I lead two hundred soldiers to attack!"

After Pan Feng finished drinking, he and his adopted son Pan Ping led two hundred soldiers into the dense forest beside the mountain road.Seeing this, Zhang Fei ordered the soldiers to throw stones quickly with a thunderous voice.The soldiers listened to the order, and each of them used all their strength to throw huge boulders down the mountain road.
