Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 676 The Situation of Shouchun

The land of Shouchun.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, when the princes were divided, it was the territory of Yuan Shuyuan Road.

At the same time, it was the place where Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, and the place where Yuan Shu was defeated in the end, and died by slaying himself in Shouchun City.

Since then.

The land of Shouchun also fell into the hands of Sun Ce and became the territory of Wu State.

After going around and around, it was finally captured by the Han army and became the territory of the Han Dynasty. The Han army took over all affairs in the land of Shouchun.

now. ,

In Shouchun City, there used to be more than [-] soldiers of the Han army. Because of an order, Chen Dao, Ma Dai, Zhuge Liang, Fazheng, and Chen Deng led the army to leave and march towards Jizhou. Ten thousand soldiers are stationed in the city.

It turned out that Shouchun was captured without a single soldier.

Liu Qi left heavy guards in Shouchun, and also let Chen Dao and Ma Dai station there, one is to prevent the Wu army from retaking the land of Shouchun;

Now the army has been transferred away, leaving only a few soldiers and horses to guard.

This caused the emptiness of Shouchun.

Chen Dao and others led the army to leave Shouchun City.

There hasn't been much change in the city. As always, the city gates are wide open, and people come in and out through the city gates.

The city gates were also guarded by soldiers of the Han army, checking some vehicles coming in and out, but they were not too strict, just some routine inspections.

above the city wall.

Black flags were planted everywhere and fluttered in the wind. A soldier in black clothes and armor held a spear and stood straight beside the city wall, looking at the situation outside the city wall.

The law and order in the city is also very stable.

At a certain time, there will be a group of 20 soldiers, holding long guns, walking through the streets, inspecting the situation in various places in the city, and dealing with various disturbances or various trivial matters.

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

It seemed very stable and peaceful.

however.

at noon.

The sun that hangs high above the sky, looking very dazzling, also walked from the eastern sky to the center of the sky.

Exuding a hot breath, shining on the ground, making the air seem a little dull.

However, the soldiers of the Han army stationed in Shouchun City did not leave their original places, but they still devoted themselves to their duties and guarded their posts. After all, this was their responsibility.

changed.

That is, the number of people entering and leaving the city has decreased a lot, leaving only people who sometimes enter and leave the city in twos and threes.

It can be said that it is time to be free.

But right now.

A fast horse came running from a distance, looking very fast.

"Quickly, close the city gate, the Wu army is coming!"

I see.

A soldier on the fast horse was the spy of the Han army who was probing outside, and when he was about to approach the city gate, he shouted loudly.

Loud.

It is also for the defenders on the city wall and the defenders at the gate to hear.

I heard the soldier shouting.

The defenders at the city gate did not hesitate to let the few people who were still entering and leaving the city leave, and quickly walked into the passageway of the city gate, preparing to push the two thick gates to close them.

The spy who came to deliver the report had no intention of entering the city. He watched the soldiers guarding the city gate close the city gate, and didn't care. He stopped the horse when he was still 100 meters away from the city gate.

"How long will Wu Jun arrive!"

above the city wall.

There was a soldier who looked like a general shouting towards the city.

This general was one of Chen Dao's personal guards. He was left behind by Chen Dao and led the remaining [-] defenders. He was also on the top of the tower all the time. When he heard the scout's shout, Just walked out of the tower.

"Wu Jun is still six miles away from here. According to Wu Jun's marching speed, he can reach it in less than a stick of incense!" The Han army spy under the city replied.

"It's enough time for a stick of incense!" the soldier murmured.

Immediately, he shouted to the scouts under the city, "It's alright, let's go!"

"promise!"

The scout didn't hesitate, and as soon as he cupped his hands, he turned his horse's head and left in another direction. He was a scout, not a combatant.

What's more, he still needs to continue to convey the news.

and so.

He won't go to the city, because there is no need for that, and he can't waste time here.

And this time.

The city gate was originally wide open, but it was also closed under the push of the city gate guards.

The action is also very fast.

Wait until the scout rides away.

The general on the city wall said to the left and right: "Let the soldiers get ready!"

"promise!"

After clapping hands left and right, they went down to make arrangements.

They all knew what was going on, and they had made arrangements for them before Chen Dao and the others led the army away.

Now that Wu's soldiers and horses have arrived, it's time to proceed.

Zhuge Liang and the others knew that Wu Jun would come to attack Shouchun City after they led the army to leave, and they would definitely not let the [-] soldiers who stayed behind die.

not to mention.

Since Wu Jun dared to attack, he must have great confidence.

Then it is possible to make some small arrangements.

At least the [-] soldiers left behind can be saved alive. As for Shouchun City, that is another matter.

"It's finally here!" the general on the city wall murmured.

Several days have passed since the army left.

It was so long that he thought that Wu Jun would give up this chance to recapture Shouchun City, and the army had already left for a long time, no matter how much delay it took, they had already entered the land of Yuzhou.

Done.

Then he left with his sword in his hand.

Now that Wu Jun has come, he still has to make some arrangements, and there are still things he needs to do.

And it must be completed before Wu Jun's complete arrival.

Nothing to lose.

When Shouchun City knew that Wu Jun was coming, he started to get busy.

It is far away six miles away from Shouchun City.

As the coach who recaptured Shouchun City this time, Lv Meng is leading an army and is heading towards Shouchun City quickly. Just in case, after recapturing Shouchun City, he can resist the turning back of the Han army.

This time.

Lu Meng led an army of [-] to come.

There are [-] soldiers and horses.

Lu Meng was also confident enough to take back the land of Shouchun in one fell swoop, and finally resisted the returning Han army, firmly controlled Shouchun City in his hands, and would not let the Han army take it away.

of course.

The Han army in Shouchun City suddenly withdrew to support Wei.

He also felt that there was a problem, so before going to Shouchun City, he also made arrangements and sent out a spy report to find out the whereabouts of the Han army.

After confirming that the Han army has reached Yuzhou, there are indeed only [-] defenders in Shouchun City.

The last hesitation in my heart disappeared, and I accelerated my march to capture Shouchun City.
