Soldiers come to the world

Chapter 1061 The situation changes suddenly

In the early morning of this day, the defenders at the head of Panyu City who had been patrolling all night were exhausted, and were ready to take over their shifts and return to the camp to rest as usual. Most of these soldiers were militia soldiers from Nanhai County. The drudgery of watching the night.

Suddenly, a piercing alarm bell sounded from the highest observation tower on the top of the city. This was an alarm for the arrival of enemy troops. Thousands of defenders on the top of the city were suddenly in chaos, and they rushed to the north battlement one after another, but the defenders After only a few dozen steps, it was discovered that something was wrong. The alarm came from the observation tower at the head of the south city.

The defenders turned around again and rushed to the head of the South City. Although they were very surprised in their hearts, the south was the sea, how could the enemy army come from the south, but the soldiers standing on the head of the South City were no longer puzzled, and everyone's face became pale. Very serious, staring blankly at the sea.

I saw a huge fleet appeared on the sea in the distance, the smallest was a thousand-stone warship, there were nearly a thousand ships, the sails covered the sky and the sun, and they were sailing towards Panyu City.

But the shock of the soldiers was only for a short time. After a while, the city was once again in chaos. Some soldiers ran down the city to the barracks, and some soldiers dropped their weapons and ran back home. Killing several people stopped the chaos of the militia soldiers.

Liu Feng was also extremely nervous, so he urgently sent someone to report to his father Liu Bei, and at the same time ordered the city gate that had just been opened to be closed immediately, and the suspension bridge to be pulled up. The surroundings of the gate first started to become chaotic, crying for their parents and calling for their mothers. It was a chaotic scene. The women who bought vegetables on the street ran to their homes one after another. The shops that had just opened for business were frightened and closed their doors again. Soon, every household in the city closed their doors. The entire Panyu City was shrouded in an inexplicable panic.

At this time, Liu Bei also came to Nancheng surrounded by dozens of guards. Thousands of soldiers were already covering Nancheng. Everyone's eyes were full of shock. Liu Feng stepped forward and reported in a low voice, "My lord, it should be The Han army is coming."

As if Liu Bei didn't hear what he said, he stared blankly at the warships covering the sky in the distance, his eyes were full of despair, Ma Su beside him was pale, and his heart was full of fear and shame, he knew he had committed a crime. Big mistake.

At this time, the warship was moored outside the mouth of the Dongjiang River, waiting for the warships behind to converge. After a long while, Liu Bei sighed, "Heaven will kill me!"

His eyes darkened, and he fainted at the top of the wall. The guards were so frightened that they supported him, and Liu Feng shouted: "Father! Father!"

Liu Bei woke up after a while, and couldn't help crying loudly, "I regret that I didn't listen to the advice of the military adviser, and today's disaster is the result!"

Huang Quan, the attendant next to him, said anxiously: "My lord, calm down first, and don't affect the morale of the army."

Liu Bei came to his senses, wiped away his tears quickly, and asked the left and right officials, "What should we do now?"

Zuo Shizhong Wang Lei said: "I suggest that you send out the water army first, try to intercept the enemy's warships, don't let them enter the Dongjiang River, and then quickly send people to order General Guan and General Zhang to come back to help."

The Jiaozhou army also established a water army, with hundreds of warships of various sizes. It was originally commanded by the general Chen Dao, but now Chen Dao led the reinforcements to Cangwu County, and the water army was temporarily commanded by the deputy general Mi Fang. Liu Bei nodded and looked at the general Mi Fang looked over, "General Mi, would you like to share my worries?"

Mi Fang was also afraid in his heart, but at this moment he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "The final general is willing to solve the Lord's worries and problems."

Mi Fang hurried down the city to the barracks, and Liu Bei sent people to inform Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to return quickly, and at the same time he ordered Liu Feng to send someone to notify the army division to come back.

After an emergency response was arranged, Liu Bei returned to the Yue Palace with the support of his guards. Liu Bei was also experienced in many battles, so he would not be intimidated by the mighty Han army. He was desperate because of his heart. .

Liu Bei is well aware of the situation in the city. Although there are 9000 defenders, 6000 of them are militia soldiers with extremely low combat effectiveness. Half of them have no armor, while there are only 3000 regular soldiers, and militia groups from all over the country are on their way to Panyu. Whether they can catch up is still a question. More importantly, the size of the Han army is tens of thousands. How can they hold Panyu City?

Now he can only hold a glimmer of hope, maybe the Han army will implement the tactics of besieging the city and fighting for reinforcements, and they are not in a hurry to attack the city, so that Yunchang and Yide's troops can come back in time.

Liu Bei was so anxious that the ants on the hot pot ran back and forth in the lobby, stopping from time to time to pray to God, begging God to help him again

The main force of the Han army arrived as scheduled. Gan Ning was the chief general, and Lu Xun was the Sima. The two men led [-] warships from Kuaiji County. Borrowing the north wind, the fleet sailed along the coast. After walking for more than a month, I finally arrived at Lingdingyang.

At this time, the [-] warships of the Han army had assembled. On the leading ship of [-] stone buildings, Gan Ning and Lu Xun looked at the city of Panyu several miles away. After a hard journey, they finally arrived at their destination. Everyone was very emotional, Gan Ning asked with a smile: "Should we attack Panyu City in one go?"

Lu Xun served as Sima, and was in charge of the fleet's expedition to Hainan, and at the same time established the route. On the other hand, he was actually the military adviser for the southern expedition. Liu Jing had given orders, and Gan Ning was in charge of the army, but Lu Xun was in charge of the offensive strategy.

Lu Xun smiled and said: "Don't be too anxious, let's see Liu Bei's reaction first, and send an army north to prevent Liu Bei from abandoning the city and fleeing."

One sentence reminded Gan Ning, and he immediately turned his head to lieutenant general Shen Miling and said, "You can lead five thousand troops ashore, block the way to the north, and prevent Liu Bei from abandoning the city and escaping!"

"Follow the order!" Shen Mi saluted, turned around and left.

At this time, a soldier came forward and reported: "General Qi, there is an army going out of Nancheng to the dock, about 3000 people."

Gan Ning was startled, not understanding what the other party meant. He looked at Lu Xun, who smiled lightly and said, "It can be guessed, it should be that the Jiaozhou Army is going to intercept us by water. I heard that they also have hundreds of warships. He probably wants to fight us!"

Gan Ning smiled contemptuously, "Don't overestimate your own strength, do 3000 people also want to come and shake the chariot?"

Gan Ning then ordered: "Beat the drum and attack!"

'Boom!Boom!Boom! 'The huge attack drum sounded, and five hundred Han warships lined up in three rows and slowly sailed towards the mouth of the Dongjiang River, preparing to enter the Dongjiang River.

However, due to the lack of troops, the Jiaozhou Army could only drive a hundred warships to intercept them. Most of them were small boats of about [-] shi, and the largest warship was only [-] shi. Seeing the mighty Han army warships ahead As they approached, Mi Fang's eyes showed fear, and she brandished her knife and shouted, "Rush forward and fight the enemy to the death!"

Liu Bei locked himself in the quiet room, waiting quietly for the news from outside. He also had the intention of running away at first, but this idea was quickly dispelled. He knew that he had nowhere to go, and even appeared on the sea. With the overwhelming fleet, where else can he escape?

He knew that the general situation in Jiaozhou was over, not to mention that they were few soldiers, and they were far from being the opponent of the Han army. More importantly, Jiangdong was destroyed, and the unification of the south was unstoppable. Under the general situation, what should he do?Liu Bei himself didn't know.

At this time, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the quiet room, followed by a guard reporting, "I want to report to the emperor, the situation is not good, Mi Fang is no match for the Han army, and has already hung the white flag to surrender."

Liu Bei felt a pain in his heart, a mouthful of blood spewed out, he swayed a few times, supported the wall, and managed not to fall, after a while, he whispered: "I know!"

Even Mi Fang, who has followed him for many years, has surrendered. God is going to kill him Liu Bei!

"Father!"

Ten-year-old son Liu Chan appeared at the door. Seeing blood on the ground, he was so frightened that he hurried forward to support his father, and couldn't help crying: "Father, how are you?"

Liu Bei smiled, "I'm fine, but I'm so bored, you help Dad go for a walk in the garden!"

Liu Chan carefully supported his father, and walked slowly towards the garden, "Father, I heard that the Han army has already killed the city, are we going to die?"

Liu Chan asked with a sad voice.

Liu Bei looked at his son sharply, "Are you afraid of death?"

"The child doesn't know?"

"Tell me the truth, are you afraid of death?" Liu Bei's tone became more severe.

Liu Chan finally cried, "My child doesn't want to die!"

The son's cry made Liu Bei's heart soften again, yes!He was only ten years old, why did he criticize him so harshly?He sighed and said, "Actually, no one wants to die. There is nothing they can do about it. You had a few brothers and sisters before, and they all died in the rebellion. I know they don't want to die either. It's a pity that Dad can't keep them. But Daddy will definitely keep you, and will not let you be like the brothers and sisters before."

"Daddy, the child knows it's wrong."

Liu Bei stroked his son's head affectionately, and said with a smile, "Stop saying such silly things, and help daddy to sit in Fengyi Pavilion."

As Mi Fang led the Jiaozhou navy to surrender to the Han army, the already insufficient defenders were even more stretched. There were only 6000 soldiers left in the city, all of them were militia soldiers, and their equipment was insufficient. Half of them had no armor. , can only hold all kinds of weird weapons, such as wooden sticks, hoes, hatchets, kitchen knives, etc., and has no armor, and can only wear short clothes and cloth shoes.

What's more terrible is that Panyu City has never considered that it will be besieged. There is no defensive preparation, no large-scale defensive weapons, all weapons such as trebuchets and stone cannons are invisible, and there are no experienced generals defending the city. Only Liu Feng led 5000 people Siege the city.

However, Panyu City is still considered a strong city. The city is tall and strong, and the moat is connected to the Dongjiang River. The water is two feet deep and more than thirty feet wide. For ordinary attacking troops, such a wide moat is indeed a big problem.

It's a pity that Xiao He defeated Xiao He, but the moat with a width of more than [-] feet gave the Han army warships the greatest convenience. Hundreds of Han army warships sailed into the moat from the Dongjiang River and swaggered around the city. The stone building boat was higher than the city wall, and the soldiers on the warship condescended to shoot arrows at the top of the city, scaring the defenders to flee.

Liu Feng stood in the city tower, looking at the huge Han army warship, he was also full of despair, he couldn't hold Panyu City at all, and no one could hold it.
