The Three Kingdoms are invincible

As a springboard to attack Jingzhou, Sun Jian naturally would not ignore Jiang Xia's defense.

Jiangxia City is now jointly guarded by Sun Jian's powerful general Chen Wu and capable minister Zhu Zhi. There are [-] elite soldiers in the city and sufficient food and grass. Even if the city is besieged, the food and grass can last for half a year.

It can be said that although the combined strength of Cai Mao and Liu Bei is [-], which is twice that of Jiangxia City, it is still extremely difficult for the Jingzhou Army to capture Jiangxia City.Not to mention that Liu Bei and Cai Mao are bound to be inconsistent, which makes it even more difficult to capture the city.

However, although Liu Bei and Cai Mao have their own thoughts, at least on the surface it seems that the relationship between the two is very harmonious.Although Cai Hao looked down on Liu Bei and thought that Liu Bei was a general who had been repeatedly defeated, he still called him the emperor's uncle when they met, which gave him enough face.

As for Liu Bei, let alone, pretending to be a grandson is his special skill. No matter what he thinks of Cai Mao in his heart, at least his attitude towards Cai Mao on the surface is respectful.

Cai Hao originally wanted Liu Bei to lead his 1 horses to die at the forefront when he attacked the city. As a result, Liu Bei behaved so politely that it was a bit difficult for him to speak.

But I'm sorry, but I still have to say what should be said.Let Liu Bei's men act as human shields. This is a policy that has been formulated from the beginning, and it is also a strategy decided by Liu Biao.

After Cai Mao euphemistically expressed the meaning of letting Liu Bei lead his troops to be the vanguard, Liu Bei himself was still figuring out how to respond, but Zhang Fei behind him couldn't bear it anymore and started muttering loudly.

If it weren't for the concern that Liu Bei was here, he might even be violent directly.

Zhang Fei has been feeling upset for the past few days. After he learned that his brother Guan Yu had voted for Cao, he fell into extreme anger every day.It is not uncommon for Zhang Fei to use alcohol to relieve his sorrows and flog his soldiers. He drank alcohol without restraint, and flogged his soldiers without mercy. Almost every day, soldiers died under Zhang Fei's flogging. .

Although Liu Bei has advised Zhang Fei many times, but with little effect.Fortunately, Liu Bei wiped Zhang Fei's ass every time, and Zhang Fei whipped the dead soldiers, and Liu Bei compensated the other's family members with a lot of money, so there was no trouble.After Zhang Fei knew the inside story, he restrained himself, but that was only to reduce the rate of killing a soldier in one day to three days in three days.

Zhang Fei has been in an extremely unhappy mood for the past few days, but now Liu Biao has asked Liu Bei to lead an army to attack Jiangxia, which is like adding fuel to the fire for Zhang Fei.Although Liu Biao did not use any inappropriate words when passing the order to Liu Bei, but in Zhang Fei's view, he always felt that Liu Biao was bossing him around.

You, Liu Biao, want to attack the city and plunder the land, so send troops to save it yourself.Why should the army brought out by my elder brother to die for you, Liu Biao!Zhang Fei was very angry.

It's just that while Zhang Fei was upset, he didn't consider at all that if Liu Biao didn't give Liu Bei this piece of Mianyang to live in, Liu Bei might still be wandering.

Although Zhang Fei was unwilling to obey Liu Biao's order to conquer Jiangxia, but Liu Bei insisted on marching, so Zhang Fei had no choice but to follow.

Zhang Fei was already fighting with anger, but at this time Cai Mao proposed to let Liu Bei's troops serve as vanguards to die, which made him even more furious and flew into a rage on the spot.

Zhang Fei's voice was like thunder, and his temper was like a raging fire. When he got angry at this moment, it really made Cai Mao and others all change color.

Although he was unwilling to be suppressed by Zhang Fei like this, Cai Mao did not dare to refute at this time.Zhang Fei is not a good person at first glance. If he provokes him, if the other party loses control of his emotions and stabs him to death with a spear, then he will have no chance to regret it.

Although face is important, it is not as important as life.

But no matter what, Cai Mao secretly hated Zhang Fei in his heart after all. He had a high position in Jingzhou, even Liu Biao himself spoke politely when facing him.No one has ever dared to be so rude to himself and make himself ashamed.

The so-called hating the black and the house, Cai Mao secretly hated Zhang Fei, and even brought Zhang Fei's brother Liu Bei to hate.

No matter how respectful your attitude is, if your younger brother is so reckless and rude, you are definitely not a good person.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Wen Pin, the deputy general of Jingzhou, hurried out to smooth things over.Wenpin is a loyal and upright person, and he couldn't stand the act of letting the friendly army die.Moreover, Wenpin believes that just letting Liu Bei's troops be the vanguard will definitely attract dissatisfaction from the opponent, and it may even be negligent during the battle, which will definitely be detrimental to the war.

Under Zhang Fei's oppression and Wenpin's mediation, Cai Mao finally had to withdraw his order. After repeated discussions, Liu Bei sent 4000 people, Cai Mao sent 6000 people, and a total of 1 people were formed to serve as the vanguard of the siege.

The siege battle was very fierce. The Jingzhou army attacked the city several times, but was beaten back several times by the Jiangdong army. There were corpses strewn all over the city, and the situation was horrible.

Although Jiangxia is difficult to attack, it is not a fortified city unparalleled in the world, and the Jiangdong Army is at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, so it is very difficult to defend.

Zhu Zhi, an important minister in Jiangdong, even died in battle while defending the city.

However, although the Jingzhou army's offensive was fierce, it was still unable to take the city too late. This is due to the fact that Liu Bei and Cai Mao did not work together.

On the sixth day of Jiangxia's siege, Jiangdong reinforcements arrived.Seeing that there was no hope of attacking the city, Cai Mao withdrew his troops.

In this battle, Jingzhou lost a total of more than 5000 people, of which Liu Bei's troops lost more than [-] people.

It can be said that for this battle, Liu Bei lost more than half of some of the family assets he had worked so hard to save at once, and the loss in his heart can be imagined.

After the retreat, Cai Mao met Liu Biao and told Liu Bei that he was not working hard and delayed the opportunity to fight, so that he failed to win Jiangxia.Regarding Cai Mao's responsibilities, Liu Bei will naturally write a letter to fight back, which is not listed for the time being.

On Jiangdong's side, although Jiang Xia was saved, Sun Jian was still angry.

Zhu Zhi's death in battle drove Sun Jian mad.

Zhu Zhi, like Han Dang, Cheng Pu and others, was the first group of people to follow Sun Jian.Although Zhu Zhi is not very good at martial arts, he has good abilities in both military and political affairs, which won Sun Jian's trust.

In the original history, Zhu Zhi was worshiped as the prefect of Wujun, granted the general of Anguo, and granted the title of Marquis of Piling, and was favored by Sun Quan.Zhu Zhizhi's adopted son, Zhu Ran, served as the governor of the state of Wu after Lu Xun's death.

The anger that Zhu Zhizhi's death aroused in Sun Jian's heart was no less than that of Han Dang's death last time. It can be said that Sun Jian completely hated Liu Biao.

Although the Jiangxia battle had no effect on the situation in the north, it was precisely because of this battle that Cao Cao was now feeling very embarrassed.

Without him, through this battle, Guan Yu finally knew Liu Bei's current whereabouts.

Liu Bei previously kept a low profile in Mianyang, so many people didn't know that he lived under Liu Biao's tent.But in the battle of Jiangxia, since Liu Bei participated in the battle, it is impossible for his whereabouts to continue to be hidden, and he will definitely be known, and Guan Yu is no exception.

After learning that his elder brother was with Liu Biao, Guan Yu immediately asked Cao Cao to resign, hoping that Cao Cao would let him return to where his elder brother was.

Facing Guan Yu's request, Cao Cao is now having a headache.
