Rise of the Heavens

Chapter 543
"Hey!" Zhuge Liang watched Pang Tong's body fall to the ground helplessly, with an expression of great regret on his face. In Lumen Academy, he and Pang Tong were called together, and they were hailed as the talents of the future.

Unexpectedly, before the two of them left the army, Pang Tong died in battle.The peerless genius who fell in the middle is no longer a genius.At this time, Zhuge Liang could only look at the opponent, and had no choice but to make another move.

Gao Cheng casually stabbed Pang Tong to death with sword energy, without the slightest fluctuation on his face, as if he was killing an irrelevant person.He has stayed in this world for such a long time, and any famous character from the original timeline appeared in front of his eyes, and his heart would be as peaceful as a lake.

Killing Pang Tong is nothing, Pang Tong's reputation is relatively large in the history of his original world, but his reputation is all set off by Zhuge Liang.After Zhuge Liang made great achievements and fully demonstrated his abilities, other people were interested in knowing Pang Tong, who was as famous as Zhuge Liang, and regretted his untimely death.

To be honest, Pang Tong's status is much weaker than Zhou Yu's.Now that even Zhou Yu is under his command, Gao Cheng certainly wouldn't regard beheading Pang Tong as a big deal.

After Pang Tong was beheaded, a strong force of fate gushed out of him.The Southern Sky Fire Phoenix Banner in Pang Tong's hand seemed to sense the dissipation of his master's breath, and there was a phoenix cry, and then the Fire Phoenix Flag moved in the wind, and flew towards the sky with great spirituality, wanting to find his next master .

"Fall for me!"

How could Gao Cheng watch the prey in his mouth run away, he urged the power of Chuanguo Yuxi, and slapped it on the fire phoenix flag, the jade seal that can suppress all vitality and magical powers emitted a golden light, and the fire phoenix flag seemed to be pinched The big bird stuck in its throat could no longer flutter.

Crunch!

The city wall of Xiangyang City was suddenly opened, and Cai Mao and Zhang Yun took the initiative to lead the soldiers out of the city gate.expressed willingness to surrender.I only hope that after Gao Cheng's army enters the city, they can guarantee the safety of their family.

After repeated defeats and loss of troops, the strength of Xiangyang City fell to the lowest point. Now that the formation of Lumen Academy was broken, as long as Gao Cheng activated his supernatural powers, the city walls could be smashed down, and the army would not have any difficulty in entering the city.

Once the army is allowed to enter the city, a family like the Cai family will not have enough confidence to protect their family property and personal safety in the midst of the chaos.

Since the destruction of the city is inevitable, don't blame him for being ruthless.

"The guilty general has met the right general!" Cai Hao and Zhang Yun asked their subordinates to tie themselves up, and came to Gao Cheng with the appearance of pleading guilty.Standing not far away, Zhuge Liang saw the faces of these two people with high status in Jingzhou, their faces trembled slightly, and he couldn't help but fell silent.

Gao Cheng laughed, and hurriedly stepped forward to lift the two of them up, and said with a smile, "What is the general's fault? Brother Degui and General Zhang help me, and Jingzhou can be brought back to stability!"

Cai Hao showed a trace of shame when he heard the words, and said: "The general praises me, I am ashamed to take it."

He paused for a moment, observed Gao Cheng's expression, and then continued: "I have a merciless request. Mr. Liu is already ill and unable to manage affairs. Please be merciful to the right general..."

"Oh? Liu Jingsheng is already sick in bed?"

Gao Cheng's expression moved slightly. Liu Biao's mental strength is not weak. He was a celebrity who was famous all over the world. He reached the state of soul refining for a long time. not too good.

A thought flashed in his mind, if according to the original timeline, Liu Biao could still live for more than ten years, now he should have been severely hit by Jingzhou's repeated defeats and finally lost all his foundations, that's why he couldn't afford to be seriously ill.

"Brother Degui, don't worry! Liu Shijun is a relative of the Han family and a famous person in the world. How can I attack him? Come, send medical officers to Liu's mansion to see a doctor for Shijun. At all costs, we must keep Liu Shijun." Your life!" Gao Cheng said immediately.

Cai Hao and Zhang Yun's faces were moved when they heard the words, and they said repeatedly: "The general is benevolent and righteous, and we thank the general for Liu Shijun's kindness!"

When Gao Cheng was talking to them, Xi Zhicai looked like a smile but not a smile.

Cai Mao and Zhang Yun opened the city gate and sold Liu Biao and hundreds of thousands of people in the city. Now they are still hypocritically worried about Liu Biao's safety.The acting is not bad.

At this time, there was a commotion at the city gate, and the capable Yangzhou soldiers quickly lined up in battle formation, exuding a strong murderous aura.Soon Zhou Yu, who commanded the army, came to report with a strange expression.

"My lord! The heads of the Kuai, Huang, and Pang families in the city are here to serve as soldiers!"

Gao Cheng laughed when he heard the words, and exchanged a glance with Xi Zhicai. The aristocratic families in Xiangyang saw the situation and finally accepted the reality, and had no choice but to take the initiative to welcome the Yangzhou Army.

If he refuses to accept the reality, Gao Cheng will definitely not have enough patience to give them the treatment of the four surnames of Wu County.It is inevitable to launch a large army to wipe out these people.

……

After Gao Cheng entered the city, he did not visit Liu Biao in the Liu Mansion. To him, Liu Biao was no different from other people who had been defeated by him.After the annexation of Jingzhou, Liu Biao's dragon energy and the boundless power of fate were quietly swallowed by the gate of fate. Even if Liu Biao regained his health now, he would not expect to achieve anything in the future.

The nearly one million army did not all enter the city, so Zhou Yu mobilized the navy and infantry and began to attack Dengxian, Shandu, Caiyang, Zhuyang and other cities near Xiangyang.

After the city of Xiangyang was broken and Cai Mao surrendered, the magistrates and lieutenants of these cities lost their square inches. They were very frightened by the Yangzhou army.

There were still some cities that were unwilling to surrender. Cai Mao took the initiative to write many letters to persuade them, and finally opened the city gates to welcome Yangzhou soldiers to enter.

Gao Cheng didn't pay attention to the movements of these small counties. After he settled down in Xiangyang, he immediately focused on Xinye.At this time, the Yangzhou army should have taken the city.

"My lord, there's news from Xinye!" A day later, Xi Zhi hurriedly found Gao Cheng with his messengers.

"General Dinggong has captured Xinye, but just after taking the city, an army of [-] troops came from Wuyin, led by General Xia Houyuan under Cao Cao's command!"

Xi Zhicai quickly explained the current situation.Gao Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and said lightly: "Cao Cao has indeed come! As we expected before, he did not just sit back and watch Liu Biao fall, but took the initiative to send reinforcements!"

"However, he came too late. Both Xiangyang and Xinye are in my hands. How can Xiahouyuan's [-] troops resist my millions?"

Xi Zhicai nodded again and again, and said, "My lord is right. If Cao Cao gets the news that Xiangyang City has been destroyed, he has only two choices. Either attack our army while our foothold is unstable, or retreat on our own initiative!"

Gao Cheng laughed, and said: "The military adviser is wrong. Cao Cao has no two choices. The army under his command has only one end, and that is to be wiped out by me. I will not give him a chance to choose."

"Send an order to Gongjin to lead the army north to Xinye. This time, I want to take down the whole county of Nanyang, invade the Central Plains, and annex Yuzhou!"
