Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

However, the nearly 100,000 Jingzhou troops marching along the plank road were like a long snake falling into a hunter's trap.

However, this "long snake" could only twist, struggle, and hiss in the terrain carefully selected by Liu Yan...

At this moment, the advantages of the terrain were magnified to the extreme.

Countless Jingzhou soldiers tried to hide, but saw casualties everywhere and there was nowhere to hide; some were brave enough to die together with their companions, holding spears, but could not reach the enemies on the mountain wall; some wailed and begged for mercy, fell to the ground injured, and then were trampled into meat paste by their companions.

The cruelty of war is vividly displayed.

Many of the Yizhou soldiers who were continuously attacking on the mountain wall witnessed this tragic scene and felt so sorry for it that they couldn't help vomiting.

If there was a place that could be considered a pure land in that cruel hell that spread for nearly ten miles, it was where the personal guards who were protecting Liu Biao as he retreated were.

Under Liu Yan's command, the Yizhou soldiers took advantage of the terrain to launch continuous attacks and bypassed Liu Biao.

Even though Liu Yan felt that the jade seal was more likely to be carried by Liu Biao, he would not safely hand such an item over to other people or keep it somewhere else.

However, Liu Yan did not dare to gamble, nor did he want to gamble.

Jingzhou and the jade seal were both what Liu Yan coveted.

Liu Yan wants both!

Moreover, Liu Yan was not in a hurry at all. The distance from this place to Jingzhou was nearly four hundred miles, and the road was mostly ups and downs, narrow and difficult to walk on.

More importantly, Yu Fucheng and Weiguan, who had previously surrendered to Liu Biao, were actually Liu Yan's true confidants.

Even if Liu Biao had the ability to lead the remaining troops to escape 400 miles back to the vicinity of Weiguan, as long as he controlled Yufu City and Weiguan, Liu Biao would still be a dying fish.

The ambush from the mountain wall actively avoided Liu Biao's position, which was also noticed by many alert Jingzhou soldiers.

Driven by the instinct of survival, without Liu Biao giving any orders, a large number of Jingzhou soldiers subconsciously gathered around Liu Biao and continued to flee to the rear.

The wailing sounds that kept echoing in the valley, contrasting with Liu Biao's pale and gloomy face, made Liu Biao feel even more unwilling.

He was full of vigor and energy when he came, but now he is like a lost dog.

However, Liu Biao still retained a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping to use the jade seal to threaten Liu Yan and then escape back to Jingzhou.

If only we could get there...

As long as we can return to Jingzhou, there is still hope!

Liu Biao even had a preliminary idea in his mind on how to break the impasse after returning to Jingzhou.

Nearly 100,000 troops from Jingzhou were killed here. It was difficult for Liu Biao to keep Jingzhou, let alone the imperial seal.

"After returning to Jingzhou, I will abandon Xiangyang and the Imperial Seal. I will temporarily retreat to Jiangxia County and devote all my efforts to the management of the four counties in southern Jingzhou..."

'After recovering a certain amount of strength, I will try to find a chance to turn the tables in the fight between Yuan Shu, Liu Bei, and Liu Yan!'

Even in such a low point, Liu Biao's mind was clearer than ever before, and he found a way out of the impasse.

and many more……

Suddenly, Liu Biao, who was fleeing in a hurry, paused and his eyes widened. Try to make Yuan Shu, Liu Bei, and Liu Yan fight each other for Xiangyang and the jade seal?

This suddenly reminded Liu Biao of the meaning expressed by Liu Bei's envoy when he sent him before, and Liu Biao was always puzzled about this.

But considering the current situation, Liu Biao suddenly felt that Liu Bei seemed to have anticipated this, anticipated that he would be defeated, and anticipated that he would personally beg Liu Bei to enter.

In this way, in the eyes of the people of the world, among the three of Yuan Shu, Liu Yan and Liu Bei, Liu Bei's every move was undoubtedly highlighted for the greater good of correcting the chaos, rather than starting a war purely for his own selfish desires like Yuan Shu and Liu Yan.

"Liu Xuande..."

"No, Guoshihou! Is this the man who dominated the world with his strategy? Could it be that he judged Liu Yan's treacherous plan with just a little information, and guessed that I would end up like this?"

"They even regarded me as a chess piece, a chess piece that made me, as the governor of Jingzhou, personally invite Liu Xuande to rule Jingzhou..."

For some reason, a pair of deep and distant eyes appeared in Liu Biao's mind, as if they had seen through everything long ago.

Even though Liu Biao had never seen Li Ji in person in his life, he felt that Li Ji's eyes might be like this at this moment. While chatting and laughing in Chaisang thousands of miles away, he was watching the direction of the Yijing battle...

Suddenly, another shrill wailing sound brought Liu Biao, whose mind was unconsciously scattered, back to his senses. He quickly moved his legs again and continued to flee under the cover of his personal guards.

Even though those were just flashes of guesses in Liu Biao's mind and there was no further evidence, Liu Biao had already vaguely concluded that this was the idea of ​​Li Ji, who had been watching the situation in Chaisang.

However, Liu Biao knew that even so, he would have to invite Liu Bei to join after returning to Jingzhou.

Perhaps Liu Biao did not understand the Pythagorean theorem, but he knew that the most stable relationship was a triangular relationship.

The three parties check and balance each other to prevent one of them from quickly becoming dominant in Jingzhou and seizing the imperial seal.

Only by allowing Yuan Shu, Liu Yan and Liu Bei to continue the chaotic battle centered on Xiangyang, and then Liu Biao, who had retreated to Jiangxia County and the four counties of southern Jing and recovered some of his strength, would have the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and regroup.

When Liu Biao thought of this, he had no time to think about it further and continued to flee to the rear in the chaos.

And driven by their instinctive desire to survive, many Jingzhou soldiers also realized that the area where Liu Biao was located was actually a rare safe place.

Therefore, as Liu Biao continued to flee, there were also many soldiers from Jingzhou who instinctively gathered around Liu Biao.

However, the narrow terrain in the valley was destined to form a long snake-like formation.

Even if they approach Liu Biao, how many people can get close to Liu Biao?
On the contrary, the constantly gathering crowd continuously improved the killing efficiency of the ambush and even greatly hindered Liu Biao's escape speed.

Seeing that the speed was getting slower and slower, Liu Biao gave the order fiercely.

"Kill anyone who stands in the way!"

Immediately, the personal guards who had received great favors from Liu Biao and were willing to fight to the death for him drew their swords and killed the Jingzhou soldiers who were blocking the way and pressing towards Liu Biao.

This was like a trigger, causing the already desperate and tense nerves of the Jingzhou soldiers to completely collapse, and many of them drew their swords and fought against their colleagues.

Some crazy Jingzhou soldiers even attacked Liu Biao with weapons, intending to die together with him.

This made Liu Biao both shocked and angry, and he had no choice but to urge his personal guards to clear the way.

Liu Biao, who always paid attention to the appearance of a famous scholar, lost his shoes, hair crown, and long gown in embarrassment, and then retreated to the entrance of the valley blocked by a huge rock. (End of this chapter)
