Reborn Duke In Three Kingdoms

Jianshui ferry, also known as the lower ferry.

As the name suggests, with the lower ferry, there is naturally the upper ferry. Only when you go to the ferry, you can get to Chaoyang County. Then you go south to Shandu county and enter Xiangyang.

Liu Xiu's position is the lower ferry.

At the North ferry, all the boats have been demobilized, leaving only the boats on the south bank.

"Wow!"

In June, the water rises and the river is wide.

The wide river course is nearly 15 feet long.

Under the impact of the turbulent River, the river is like a natural moat.

In fact, compared with the rivers in other places, the flow at the lower ferry is relatively gentle at this time of year. Because of the winding water, many places are full of whirlpool and it is not easy to sail. The situation at the lower ferry is quite good.

Across the river, a man in black suddenly appeared.

The man in black, with a crossbow in his hand, aimed at the south bank, whistled and pulled the trigger.

"Bang!"

The crossbow shot out, crossed an arc in the air, easily swept over the river bank and then fell.

"Poof

The bow and arrow hit the ground, just inside the camp.

At this time, the royal guards in the camp jumped out. He picked up the crossbow and quickly went to the big bank of the Chinese army. Entering the tent, the royal guards handed over the crossbow.

A note was tied to the crossbow.

Liu Xiu took down the note and looked at the information recorded on it. His face suddenly changed.

Cao Jun encircles Xinye, Deng Xian surrenders!

The nine words on the note, reflected in Liu Xiu's eyes, set off a storm in Liu Xiu's heart.

"Somebody

Liu Xiu put down the note and called.

A soldier came in and saluted, "my Lord!"

Liu Xiu said, "please ask Pang Tong, Wei Yan and Zhang Ren to come to the big account for discussion."

"No!"

After boxing, the soldier turned and stepped down.

Liu Xiu looked at the royal guards standing in the barracks and said, "continue to inquire about the news and pay close attention to Cao Jun's movements."

"No!"

The royal guards bowed to salute and retired respectfully.

Soon, Pang Tong, Zhang Ren and Wei Yan came to the big account.

After the three sat down, Pang Tong couldn't wait to ask: "Lord, do you have any new news?"

Liu Xiu, with a dignified face, replied: "just after receiving the news, Cao Jun surrounded Xinye County, and then Deng Xian surrendered directly."

"This son of a bitch!"

Zhang Yiren gritted his teeth when he heard Xinye fall.

Xinye county is the place where he garrisons. In order to defend Xinye County, almost all his soldiers died in Xinye. Now Deng Xian actually chose to surrender directly, which made it difficult for Zhang Ren to suppress his anger.

Pang Tong, with a dignified face, said slowly, "the fall of Xinye means that Cao's army will soon go south. In one day at most, he will arrive at the Jianshui ferry. The war has spread to this direction, and the prelude to the war is finally about to begin. "

Wei Yantian was not afraid of the ground. He had a high morale in his eyes and said, "this battle is doomed to be a great defeat for the Cao army."

Liu Xiu looked at Wei Yan and asked, "chief Wen, are you ready?"

Wei Yan said: "Lord, don't worry. Everything is ready."

Liu Xiu nodded and said, "it's certain that Cao Jun will go south. We'll just wait."

After that, Liu Xiu looked at Zhang Ren and said, "General Zhang, Deng Xian surrenders and Xinye falls. It's bound to make waves in Nanyang County. Even in Yin County, Ying County, Zhangling county and other places, the morale of the troops will fluctuate. Now, we must stabilize the morale of the soldiers in all counties, so that they will not be swallowed by Cao Cao. "

Zhang Ren asked, "what is the Lord going to do?"

Liu Xiu said, "in your name, I reprimand Deng Xian for selling his main business. Then, he fought to the death against Cao Cao and called on the troops from Ying County, Yin County, Zhangling county and other places to gather in Chaoyang County. "

"At this point, if we divide our forces to guard the counties, the final result will only be defeated by Cao Cao."

"Rather than that, we should concentrate all our forces."

Liu Xiu said: "save people and lose land, save land and lose people. As long as we keep our troops, it's worth giving up counties for the time being. If Cao Cao is willing to divide his forces to guard these counties, let him go. "

Zhang Ren brightened his eyes and said, "my Lord is right. I'll arrange for people to gather the soldiers."

With that, Zhang Ren left.

……

Xinye County, in the city.

Cao Cao lived in the Yamen and discussed business in the hall.

At first, Cao Cao decided to gather all the soldiers to go south within half a month. In fact, it took only 12 days to complete the assembly of 200000 troops.

The 200000 troops are already the vast majority of Cao Cao's troops.Cao Cao had great ambition and great hope to solve Jingzhou and Jiangdong at one stroke and completely pacify the world.

Cao Cao looked at Xun you and asked, "Gongda, where is Liu Xiu?"

Xun you replied, "report back to the prime minister. Liu Xiu led his troops to camp at the underwater ferry. Looking at Liu Xiu's appearance, he intends to use the natural danger of the underwater ferry to stop the prime minister from going south. "

"It's just shaking the tree!"

Cao Cao's big sleeve is full of spirit.

Deng Xian of Xinye County voluntarily offered his city to surrender, which means that the situation of Yizhou in Nanyang County was broken. The Yizhou garrison in other counties will lose their fighting power completely after they get the news.

Jia Xu said: "prime minister, there is another news. After Deng Xian surrendered to the prime minister, Zhang Ren said that Deng Xian was a small man. In addition, Zhang Ren also sent letters to Ying County, Yin county and other places, calling on the soldiers of all counties to give up their persistence and go to Chaoyang County to meet and resist the prime minister together. "

Cao Cao asked, "how many troops are there in each county?"

Jia Xu replied: "before, Zhang Ren was determined to defend Xinye and took out some soldiers from various counties. Before that, Deng Xian also took out some soldiers. There should not be many troops left in the counties. "

Cao Cao said: "I want data!"

Jia Xu was silent for a moment, and said: "the total strength of all counties is expected to be about 6000 soldiers."

"Six thousand!"

Cao Cao's eyes, showing a light.

At this time, Deng Xian stood up and said: "prime minister, I don't think the 6000 soldiers gathered in each county are enough to worry about. Today's plan is to wipe out Liu Xiu's soldiers. As long as Liu Xiu is defeated and Liu Xiu withdraws from Nanyang County, the troops of each county will be without leaders, and the enemy will be destroyed. "

General Cao's words are quite reasonable

Suddenly, Cao Cao said, "Deng Xian, listen to the order!"

"The end will be here!"

Deng Xian straightened up and answered in a loud voice.

When Cao Cao's army besieged the city, Cao Cao sent troops to surrender. Without any hesitation, Deng Xian surrendered directly. He didn't resist at all and surrendered, so that many of Cao Cao's generals looked at Deng Xian with a trace of contempt and disdain.

Zhang Ren stayed in Xinye for seven days without surrendering.

All of us admire Zhang Ren's ability and personality.

Deng Xian is different. In the eyes of all people, he is a soft bone. Even Cao Cao did not give Deng Xian any official position for the time being, but only received the support from the army. Deng Xian was naturally aware of this situation.

Therefore, Deng Xian wanted to express himself and change his impression of Cao Cao and his generals.

Cao Cao ordered: "general Deng, in this attack on Liu Xiu, the prime minister has given you the position of pioneer. There were nearly ten thousand soldiers in the original garrison of Xinye county. These soldiers have never been adapted, and they are still under your command. Now, you lead this army to the underwater ferry to attack Liu Xiu and make way for the prime minister. If Liu Xiu is defeated, the prime minister will be rewarded. "

"No!"

Deng Xian holds his fists and has high morale in his eyes.

Cao Cao let him be a pioneer, which meant to consume this force, but more tests. If Deng Xian really defeated Liu Xiu and successfully occupied the underwater ferry, under the command of Cao Cao, Deng Xian would have a smooth foothold, which made people dare not despise.

Cao Cao's big sleeve flicked and said, "go down, I'm your good news."

"I'll leave at the end of the day!"

Deng Xian nodded and turned to leave the government.

He galloped his horse to the camp to mobilize soldiers to fight. Ten thousand soldiers followed Deng Xian and left Xinye county. They went all the way south to the underwater ferry.
