New Lubu War

Chapter 240
Jian'an eight years, March.

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun held a stalemate with Liu Bei for more than a month in Nanyang's Xinye and Yiyang areas, and finally broke it.

In the service, Liu Beijun used many intrigues and tricks.

Set up ambushes along the road, lure the enemy deep, etc., do everything possible.

But Zhang Liao and Gao Shun fought steadily all the way, and humbly listened to Li Ru and Chen Gong's suggestions, and finally went away one by one.

In the end, he passed Bowangpo without any risk, and fought Liu Bei's main force in Xinye County, and the first battle established the victory.

Liu Bei's army retreated to Xiangyang, Zhang Liao led his army in pursuit, and Gao Shun divided his troops with [-] troops, and went straight to Jiangxia.

Lu Bu, who was sitting in Xudu, soon received the battle report.

"Xu Shu is very resourceful!"

Looking at the battle report, Lu Bu laughed.

Xu Shu is indeed worthy of being one of the top strategists in the world, and the various strategies used in this battle are dazzling.

It's a pity that in the end, war requires a master and a strange assistant. Of course, the combination of the right and the odd is needed, but the front is weak, and no matter how surprising the victory is, it is useless.

Neither Zhang Liao nor Gao Shun are impulsive people. As long as they don't make mistakes, there is nothing Liu Beijun can do under the push of the army.

"what?"

The battle report described the beginning and end of this battle in detail. When Lu Bu continued to read, he found an interesting thing.

On the same day, in the decisive battle in Xinye, the two sides will fight in front of the battle.

Guan Yu and Zhang Liao fought Lily, and the outcome was even!

This is a bit abnormal.

Ten years ago, this result was not surprising, but it is very surprising now.

It should be noted that under the guidance of Lu Bu, Zhang Liao was born with spiritual power, and he is a half-step master!
It stands to reason that to resist Zhang Liao, at least two of Guan, Zhang, and Zhao should be dispatched!
But just one Guan Yu resisted Zhang Liao.

"Could it be?"

Putting his hand on his chin, Lu Bu thought of a possibility.

"Could it be that Guan Er also broke through the realm of a master and became a half-step grand master?"

If you think about it carefully, it's not impossible.

In the original time and space, it is hard to say whether Guan Yu became a half-step grand master, but in this time and space, it is possible.

Back then, outside the city of Luoyang, Lv Bu once called Guan Yu on a whim.

Even, he had personally signaled in front of him that the grand master could freely wield the trihalty of lightning.

Guan Yu's martial arts talent is a 'peerless genius'!
On the same level as Lu Bu.

With this kind of talent, coupled with the aptitude of "extraordinary talent", the understanding of "drawing inferences from one example", and the foundation of a pinnacle master.

In this way, it is reasonable and reasonable to study for more than ten years and go further after Lu Bu taught and demonstrated.

"Good pass two!"

After thinking about it, Lu Bu praised.

To be able to give birth to spiritual power and be promoted to a half-step grand master with only one's own efforts in this mere mortal world is remarkable.

For now, apart from himself, Lu Bu has only met Wang Yue.

……

After the First Battle of Xinye, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun parted ways.

Under the deterrence of Zhang Liao's [-] elite cavalry, Liu Bei did not dare to stay in Jiangbei, and soon abandoned Xiangyang, retreated to Nanjun, crossed the river to Jiangling, and joined Liu Biao.

Gao Shun's [-] troops began to attack Jiangxia.

Huang Zu, the prefect of Jiangxia, was the number one general under Liu Biao, and he made great contributions to Liu Biao.

Sun Jian was shot in ambush by him.

He also repelled Sun Ce's attacks many times.

Although there are chances and coincidences in these credits, and some are due to the solidity of the terrain, there is no doubt that they are all facts.

Therefore, under Liu Biao's command, Huang Zu's status is unique.

Because of this, Huang Zu developed a proud and conceited character.

Therefore, facing Gao Shun's [-] army to invade, Huang Zu, who had [-] troops and guarded the city, did not pay much attention to him.

At this time, because Liu Bei retreated to Jiangling, Zhang Liao's army went all the way unimpeded, occupying Xiangyang and the entire Nanyang, as well as Jiangbei Nanjun.

In the face of Zhang Liao's menacing army in Jiangbei, Liu Biao did not dare to neglect and put all his strength on guard.

Therefore, it was impossible to divide troops to support Huang Zu in Jiangxia.

Therefore, Liu Biao sent Kuai Yue to Jiangdong and asked Sun Ce to send troops to support him.

Compared with Jingzhou, Jiangdong is facing much less pressure.

Only Lujiang is attacked by the Lu army, and there are only [-] people. The Jiangdong army can divide troops to support Jiangxia.

In fact, Sun Ce has already fought against Wen Chou, Zhang Yang, and Zhang Xiu.

Although known as the "Little Overlord", in terms of force, Sun Ce suffered defeat for the first time.

He was defeated by Wen Chou.

Of course, it was only a small defeat, and it happened after the battle against Lily.

In the original time and space, the force of the two people was at the same level, they were both 'thousand army generals', and their strength was equal.

But now Wen Chou is a 'super fighter' on the same level as Zhang Fei and Ma Chao.

Therefore, it is normal to lose to Wen Chou.

Not only Sun Ce himself lost to the chief general of Lu Jun, but Jiangdong's soldiers and horses were far inferior to the elite Lu Jun.

Army soldiers, the combat power of the two sides is completely disproportionate.

Almost as soon as Fu made contact, the Jiangdong Army was defeated.

The general Tai Shici was brave, but Zhang Yang and Zhang Xiu, the two "formation-breaking generals", joined forces, and they were enough to stop him.

So, in Jiangbei, Sun Ce was defeated and returned.

However, back in the south of the Yangtze River, with hundreds of thousands of sailors patrolling the river, Wen Chou and others couldn't help Sun Ce.

After receiving Liu Biao's request, Sun Ce was very reluctant to respond.

What should I do?
Sun Jian died at the hands of Huang Zu!
Do you think Sun Ce should respond?
But there is no way, national affairs are the most important thing, and Sun Ce is not a person who is arrogant.

At Zhou Yu's suggestion, Sun Ce sent Cheng Pu to Jiangxia with an army of [-] and hundreds of warships.

But on the way, they got the news that Huang Zu was defeated and killed.

It turned out that Huang Zu had many soldiers on his own, so he sent out an army of [-] to fight Gao Shun to the death outside the city.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the two armies came into contact, Jiang Xia's soldiers and horses were defeated.

He personally led the [-] brave "cavalry battalion", Gao Shun rushed into the Jiangxia Army's middle army, and shot Huang Zu off his horse.

Then he settled in the city, set up a list to calm the people, and took over Jiangxia.

Upon receiving the news, Cheng Pu had no choice but to return with his army.

Jiang Xia's fall made Liu Biao panic.

Fortunately, it was Jiangbei that was lost, the Jiangnan part was still there, and the most important city of Xiakou was still there.

The location of Xiakou is very critical. It is located at the protruding point of the Yangtze River, with Chibi and Jiangling on the left and Lujiang River in the east of the Yangtze River on the right. It is a strategic point and must be garrisoned by generals.

After much deliberation, Liu Biao decided to let Liu Bei enter Xiakou.

But at this moment, a major event happened in Jingzhou.

Xu all.

"what?"

Lu Bu was stunned, looked at Cao Cao, and asked:

"Cai Mao held Liu Biao hostage and wanted to offer Jingzhou to me, but was killed on the spot by the enraged Zhang Fei?"

"During the chaos, Liu Biao was killed by Cai Mao's men?"

"Liu Bei led Jingzhou Mu, took over Liu Biao's troops, sent Guan Yu to garrison Xiakou, continued to ally with Sun Ce, and stick to Jiangling?"

"Exactly!"

Cao Cao smiled bitterly and said:
"Cai Mao is Liu Biao's brother-in-law. Liu Biao can't be on guard, and he is caught off guard by him!"

"Cai Mao wanted to kidnap Liu Biao to surrender, but unexpectedly Zhang Yide killed Cai Mao regardless of Liu Biao's life, and this happened!"
