The last three kingdoms

Chapter 268 From Fucheng to Luocheng
Guan Yi was soaked in blood, swung his knife thousands of times, and his physical strength was also exhausted very quickly, but Guan Yi's belief was very firm, and he would not back down even half a step.

Guan Yi stood in the front, and the auxiliary soldiers behind had the opportunity to fill the gap with sandbags. Hundreds of sandbags were not a small number, and a sandbag wall as high as a man was quickly formed.

"Your Majesty, quickly retreat into the wall!" A Du Bo who was in charge of filling the gap said loudly to Guan Yi. If the sandbag wall was built higher, Guan Yi might not be able to come back.

Guan Yi fought bloody battles to the end in order to buy time to plug the gap. Now that he was done, he didn't dare to fight any more. He immediately turned over and retreated, flying and rolling behind the sandbag wall. However, none of the soldiers survived, and all died in battle under the city wall.

Wu Bing chased after him, but was shot back by a flurry of arrows.

With the concerted efforts of the Shu soldiers, the city wall built with sandbags has reached a height of about two feet, and Luocheng has survived a crisis for the time being.

"Governor, do you want to bombard the city wall again with catapults?" Liu Ping, who was used to sweet things, suggested again.

Lu Kang looked at Dongfang's white belly, and shook his head gently. He understood the principle of one effort, and then the biggest opportunity appeared, but Wu Jun didn't grasp it. Once the opportunity passed, Wu Jun's Morale was visibly slumped.Originally, the Wu army had already traveled for a day, and arrived at Luocheng before dark. After arriving, they did not take a rest and immediately went into the siege operation. After a night of tossing, the Wu army was already extremely exhausted. The body is not made of fine steel, and the continuous marching and fighting is supported by a spirit of energy. It is normal for morale to be low after being unable to attack for a long time.

"Order the troops to rest for two hours before attacking the city!" Lu Kang ordered in a deep voice.

Wu Jun left like the ebb tide, and Guan Yi realized that his arms were filled with lead and he couldn't lift them up. There were more than a dozen wounds all over his body, and Zheng's clothes were soaked in blood.However, Guan Yi was quite satisfied with being able to withstand such a fierce offensive from the Wu army.

Guan Yi ordered the soldiers to take a break on the battlefield, eat some dry food and drink some water, to replenish and restore their physical strength. He knew very well that the retreat of the Wu army was temporary, and the next battle would only be more brutal than last night.

Wu Jun's barracks rose with smoke and the smell of food. The exhausted Wu Jun gobbled up the food, not caring about whether today's food is delicious. It is their greatest luxury to fill their stomachs. Many soldiers threw away their rice bowls. , fell asleep, probably almost exhausted.

Lu Kang looked energetic, he didn't close his eyes all night, and he didn't look too tired. His eyes fell on the military map on the case. If everything went well for Wei Jun, he should have reached Guan County by now. I don't know what kind of resistance they will encounter, but it can be foreseen that Zhong Hui will definitely be able to break through the defense of the Shu army and advance towards Chengdu. Therefore, Lu Kang cannot fall behind the Wei army. Take Luocheng inside.

Although Lu Kang is confident in winning Luocheng, this is not a war of attrition but a tough battle, and it must be won as soon as possible. Peach, so Lu Kang is quite cautious.

While the soldiers of the Wu army were eating and sleeping, Lu Kang was already planning the next stage of attack.

"Report! Report to the governor that the main force of the Wei army was found in the west of Luocheng, and it is advancing towards Luocheng. It is already [-] miles away." The scout's detection radius is more than [-] miles. The focus of scouting and reconnaissance is to be able to grasp the movement information of the Wei army in detail.

Lu Kang couldn't help being a little surprised, Zhong Hui crossed mountains and ridges, and his goal was Chengdu, but he suddenly turned to Luocheng, what kind of purpose he was serving, Lu Kang was a little hard to understand.

No matter how important Luocheng is, it is not the last dangerous pass leading to Chengdu. No matter Wu State or Wei State, the ultimate goal is Chengdu. What is the intention of the soldiers from the West Road to force Chengdu so far away?
However, although Lu Kang had doubts, it did not prevent him from arranging troops. Now that the Wei army has appeared in the west of Luocheng, it is destined to be a bad comer. Lu Kang can only temporarily put down the plan to attack the city and deal with it comprehensively Wei Jun, after all, compared to Guan Yi, Zhong Hui is a strong enemy.

Wu Jun's rumbling drum sounded, and Wu Bing, who was still asleep, woke up and immediately assembled.

┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄

Zhong Hui was also a little depressed. Originally, he had no plan to detour to Luocheng. He went south from Wenshan County and pointed directly at Guanxian County. After passing through Guanxian County, he could see Chengdu.

This was originally a perfect marching plan, but there was an unforeseen situation. The sudden heavy rain the day before yesterday caused the only mountain road leading to Guan County to be buried by landslide mud and rocks. A section of the mountain road nearly ten miles away needs to be cleared. , it will take at least ten days.

ten days?The day lily was cold, and Zhong Hui didn't have the leisure to delay here, so he immediately ordered to divert to Luocheng, hoping to open another road to Chengdu.

Walking to a place more than [-] miles away from Luocheng, Zhong Hui received a report from the scouts. It turned out that Wu Jun had arrived at the city of Luoxian one step earlier than them.Zhong Hui was secretly surprised, and thought to himself, this Lu Kang really came very quickly.But looking at the situation, Lu Kang hadn't conquered Luo County yet, and Zhong Hui's eyes lit up. Could this be an opportunity given to him by God?
Wu Jun was trapped under the city of Luo County. If Wei Guo launched an attack at this time, Lu Kang would be attacked by the enemy, and it would be easier to eliminate him.

After defeating Jiang Wei, Zhong Huizhi was full of complacency, thinking that there was no opponent in the middle of Shu, and the conquest of Chengdu was just around the corner, but the real opponent of the Wei army in Shu was the State of Wu.Since sooner or later he will have to fight a fierce battle with Wu Guo for Yizhou, it should be easy to get rid of him in Luo County.

After hearing the news of Wu Jun, Zhong Hui immediately swung his army eastward and attacked the land of Wu Jun, posing an aggressive posture and aggressive.

At this time, Lu Kang was already not to be outdone, and he was ready to compete with Zhong Hui.

A new round of fighting between the two sides moved from Fucheng to Luocheng.
