Chapter 131 Liu Bei knelt down.

Chapter 131: Liu Bei knelt down.

"kill!"

"My lord has ordered that all enemy leaders be killed, dead or alive!"

"Don't let Liu go...Don't let the enemy chief go!"

Inside the Xiling camp, the roars and shouts of killing shook the earth.

More than 10,000 Xiling troops,
Like mountains and seas!

The overwhelming force surrounded Liu Bei's remaining few hundred cavalrymen tightly!

Swords, spears and lances were thrust at them from all directions like a violent storm...

Puff! ~
Xilulu! ~
The war horses were wailing and neighing incessantly. The elite cavalry of the Public Security Army were trapped and the horses could not run at all.

A large number of horses had their legs cut off, and the riders on the horses fell to the ground one after another.

More cavalrymen were forced to dismount and fight on foot.

At this point in the battle, only a few hundred of the thousand elite cavalrymen around Liu Bei and his men were left.

"kill!!"

"Block it...Ah!~"

Several spears fiercely stabbed at several dismounted cavalrymen! Before they could resist, several ring-handled swords had already chopped at the cavalrymen from behind!

In an instant,

Screams and howls were heard.

These cavalrymen were already exhausted, and now they were surrounded and strangled by troops that were several times their number. Not to mention fighting back, even parrying and resisting was extremely difficult.

"kill!"

A thunderous roar.

The Zhangba spear is like a black dragon's claws! The iron spear is like a green python turning over!
Zhang Fei and Liu Feng tried their best to use their spears, and the sharp blades of the spears pierced deep into the flesh of the enemy soldiers!
A large number of Xiling soldiers fell around the uncle and nephew. The blood of the Xiling soldiers dyed their hair and beards red and soaked their clothes and armor.

The enemy troops in front began to hesitate.

They were killed so fast that the pile of corpses under their feet almost reached their calves!

But even so, the hands of the two men holding their weapons began to tremble uncontrollably.
too tired,
They are too tired.

Although Zhang Fei and Liu Feng are extremely brave, they are still mortals after all. They have been fighting and chasing since the beginning of the war, and now they have reached their limit!
At this moment, they caught a glimpse of a figure in danger, and their faces suddenly changed.

"Brother be careful!"

"Father, get out of the way!"

A spear suddenly stabbed towards Liu Xuande's chest!

Liu Bei had no way to escape, and when his life was at stake, a huge force suddenly pulled him back...

It was Zhang Yide and Liu Feng who acted in time that saved Emperor Liu from the fatal blow!
Puff! ~
The two men raised their spears and stabbed them into the abdomen of the owner of the long spear.

Zhang Fei and Liu Feng had no time to ask Liu Xuande about his well-being. They just kept him firmly behind them and tried their best to fight with the soldiers around them.

Their speed is getting slower and slower.

The encirclement around us is shrinking.

Looking at this scene, Uncle Liu's hair was disheveled and he looked dazed...

Is it true that Liu Xuande is going to be murdered by his rebellious son today?

Is it true that Liu Xuande's great cause of revitalizing the Han Dynasty will really come to an end today?
Could it be that Liu Xuande really has no destiny?
Thinking about how I have been displaced for so many years, struggling for half my life, and trying my best to build this foundation, and finally seeing a little hope of reviving the Han Dynasty after going through untold hardships, but now I have ended up like this...

Bang! ~
As thoughts surge,
The double-edged sword in Liu Huangshu's hand fell to the ground.

His face was full of fatigue: "Liu Xuande, your luck has run out..."

……

"Liu Xuande, your luck has run out..." Zhou Gongjin let out a long sigh from a high place in the camp.

The Jiangdong generals around him also had complicated expressions on their faces when they heard Zhou Yu's sigh.

Everyone could see clearly that if there were no changes, Liu Xuande would be strangled here in just a few sticks of incense.

Uncle Liu, who was known for his benevolence and righteousness, had a life of wandering, was praised by Cao Mengde as a hero of the world, but was also Cao Mengde's lifelong enemy. Today, he was finally going to die here.

"kill!"

At this moment,

Outside the Xiling camp, shouts of killing suddenly rang out again!
About three thousand soldiers, dressed in Gong'an City armor, rushed towards the encirclement surrounding Liu Bei and his party.

"Go in! Go in!"

"Uncle Liu must be rescued!"

"We have received great kindness from our lord for a long time, and we will repay you today!"

"Where did Liu Xuande's remnants come from?"

"Want to save Liu Xuande? Dream on!"

"I think you can't protect yourselves!"

The army that was besieging Liu Bei immediately separated some of its troops and lined up to attack Liu Bei's reinforcements.

Three thousand soldiers tried their best to break through the encirclement and rescue Liu Bei.

However, the enemy's strength was several times theirs, and they could not break through at all. They were even entangled by the Xiling soldiers. Even if they wanted to escape at this moment, it was too late.

It looked like it was about to be in danger...

The Jiangdong generals who were watching the battle from a high place were all stunned. Han Dang asked in astonishment, "I didn't expect that Liu Xuande actually had a backup plan?"

"What's the use of having a backup plan? It's just like a mantis trying to stop a chariot." Huang Gai stroked his gray beard and said in a complicated tone: "The situation today is determined, Liu Xuan must die! Once Liu Xuande dies, Liu Wu will definitely win this battle..."

"At first, he fled to Gong'an City because of the matter of Liu Huangshu establishing a crown prince. He never thought that after going through so much trouble, Gong'an City would eventually fall into his hands."

"It's not just Gong'an City?" Zhou Yu shook his head. "Gong'an is now owned by Liu Zilie. He has monopolized the four counties in southern Jing and the thirty-six counties in northern Jiang. His dominance is complete..."

At this point, Zhou Gongjin's voice gradually became low:

"He occupies Xiling and holds Jiangdong's throat."

"He controls Hefei, making it difficult for us from Jiangdong to go north."

"He also controls Jiangling and holds the key road to Sichuan..."

Zhou Yu took stock of Liu Wu's assets, and the generals around him were stunned.

Before you know it,
Liu Zilie, who had occupied Xiling, kidnapped the princess, and was called a thief by the ruler and ministers of Jiangdong, has grown into such a giant.

"When we were on Shenting Ridge, I knew that this boy was no ordinary person!" Veteran General Han Dang was in a trance, as if he remembered the childish face on Shenting Ridge again: "Now that he has entered the world, he has soared to the sky and occupied southern Jing..."

"Fortunately, Liu Zilie is on good terms with Jiangdong and has also made an alliance with the Marquis of Wu. Otherwise, with such a powerful neighbor sleeping soundly beside their bed, I'm afraid that everyone in Jiangdong would be unable to sleep or eat peacefully."

The powerful neighbor is sleeping soundly beside your bed!
Although Lao Han had not read many books, this metaphor was so brilliant that many people nodded subconsciously.

Zhou Yu's eyes flashed with worry: "With such a powerful neighbor next to us, even if he is a relative from Jiangdong, it is hard not to feel uneasy. Fortunately, there are people in this world who can suppress him..."

"What I'm worried about is that in the future, apart from Cao Mengde in the north, no one in the world will be able to suppress Liu Zilie!"

The voice has not fallen,

Suddenly, an abrupt voice sounded from behind Zhou Yu: "Is the Cao Mengde that Gongjin is talking about the same Cao Aman who was captured alive and taken to Jiangling and ceded land to seek peace?!"

Who?
The Jiangdong generals suddenly turned around.

A figure wearing a feather fan and a blue scarf suddenly stood behind the people from Jiangdong.

"Mr. Kong Ming?" Zhou Yu was stunned, and so were the other Jiangdong generals.

The visitor was none other than Mr. Wolong, Zhuge Liang.

Liu Zilie should have entered Gong'an City by now. How could he let the famous Mr. Wolong out?
"ridiculous!"

"What a pity!" Zhuge Liang's eyes were sharp, as if he could see through everything: "How could Cao Mengde suppress Liu Wu?"

At this point, Zhuge Liang suddenly raised his voice, as if to slap someone in the face: "Gongjin! Ask yourself, can Cao Mengde really suppress Liu Wu?!"

Can Cao Cao really suppress Liu Wu?
Can you suppress it?
Can’t suppress it?
Zhou Yu subconsciously analyzed: "If it was just the thirty-six counties in northern Jiangnan, it would not be difficult for Cao Cao to suppress Liu Wu..."

"But now, the four prefectures and forty-eight counties in Jingnan are in Liu Wu's hands, and Jiangxia is also..."

"If Cao Cao wants to suppress Liu Wu again, it will be... difficult!

"What's more, Cao Cao is nearly sixty years old, very old, while Liu Zilie is only twenty years old, rising like the sun. He..."

Yes!

Cao Cao was nearly sixty years old, while Liu Zilie was only in his early twenties!
In today's world, sixty is considered a long life. How could Cao Mengde outlive Liu Zilie? Even if Cao Cao could live to seventy, Liu Zilie would only be thirty at that time, in the prime of his life!
What can Cao Mengde use to suppress Liu Zilie?
Thinking of this, Zhou Gongjin felt a chill on his back. Doesn’t that mean... no one in this world can suppress Liu Zilie anymore?
"No!" As if he had seen through Zhou Yu's thoughts, Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan fiercely, his voice trembling uncontrollably: "There is still one person in this world who can suppress Liu Wu!"

"What a pity! This person will soon die here!!"

Is there anyone else who can suppress Liu Wu?

Zhou Yu turned his head suddenly and looked at Liu Xuande who was surrounded and on the verge of death.

Liu Xuande?

Liu Bei has always had great ambitions and is not someone who can be easily managed. Now that the world is in chaos, he will surely be able to accomplish something.

Moreover, he hated Liu Zilie to the core. Now Liu Zilie personally ordered an attack on him. All the ties between father and son were severed, and there was no chance of recovery!

Zhuge Liang saw that Zhou Yu was thinking, and he said quickly: "How could Gongjin and the other generals not know about Liu Zilie's ability?"

"Haven't you heard that the lips and teeth are interdependent? Today's Jingnan is the future Jiangdong!"

"If Uncle Liu dies, Liu Wu's power will grow, and the Marquis of Wu will surely perish! Jiangdong will surely perish!!"

Liu Zilie's ability...

Lips are dead and teeth are cold...

"Generals!" Zhou Yu no longer hesitated and turned to look at the Jiangdong generals: "For the safety of Jiangdong, how can we just sit there and watch today?!"

……

"kill!"

"I can't get in. I can't get in at all!"

"Uncle Liu is still alive! Charge again! Charge again!"

Ding ding ding! ~
Poof! ~
"what!!!"

Swords clashed,
The sharp blade enters the flesh,

The screams continued.

After leaving behind hundreds of corpses, the reinforcements that came to rescue Liu Bei were completely in despair.

The troops besieging Emperor Liu were too strong. They charged countless times but could not get in at all!
"kill!"

A loud shout of killing came from the other side.

Wow! ~
Fourteen figures in armor,
With the force of thunder,

Like a gust of wind, it suddenly rushed to the front of them!

Poof! ~
Fourteen kinds of weapons were used to attack the Xiling siege!
These fourteen people were like a powerful crossbow arrow, tearing open the iron-like siege!

"It's torn! It's torn open!!"

"The lord is saved!"

"Charge them in! Charge in quickly!!"

Amid cheers, the reinforcements rushed in along the opening created by the fourteen figures...

From a high place in the camp, Zhuge Liang witnessed with his own eyes Zhou Yu leading the Jiangdong generals to charge towards the encirclement.

He watched helplessly as the Jiangdong generals tore open a hole in the encirclement that surrounded their lord!
The lord is saved!
The Han Dynasty is saved!
Zhuge Liang was already in tears at this time: "My lord, my lord!!"

"Liang, I have never let you down..."

……

……

Inside the Public Security City.

A large map was hung on the wall. Liu Wu held a wolf hair brush and slowly outlined his current territory.

Because of the obstruction of the river and Dabie Mountains, it can be roughly divided into three major areas.

The largest area is naturally the four prefectures and forty-eight counties in southern Jing. This is the rear base and strategic depth for Liu Wu in the future whether he goes north to compete with Cao Cao, or attacks Jiangdong or advances west to Bashu.

The second is the fertile land west of the Dabie Mountains in northern Jiangsu, which is 300 miles long from Xiling to Jiangling.

The smallest area is located east of the Dabie Mountains, consisting of more than a dozen counties centered on Hefei, namely part of Huainan.

Liu Wu's wolf hair brush fell down,

The point was in Hefei city.

Hefei was under great pressure, with Cao Cao in the north and Sun Quan in the south, and only Gao Shun could hold out. Hefei needed to have at least 10,000 troops stationed there to be safe.

Fortunately, he has now taken over the four counties of Jingnan, and the 20,000 Jingnan navy in Liu Bei's hands are also in his hands. This can greatly relieve the pressure on Hefei.

The navy will be stationed in Xiling, so that they can be high up and form a position to control Jiangdong...

There are also the twin cities of Gong'an and Jiangling facing each other across the river, which can be regarded as the most prominent places. In history, Lu Meng crossed the river in white clothes and attacked Gong'an, and Guan Gong, who was still feared by the world a second ago, died instantly.

After careful consideration, Liu Wu still felt that it was safer to leave it in Wei Yan's hands.

In history, Liu Bei established Shu Han in Bashu, and gave Jingzhou to Guan Yu and Hanzhong to Wei Yan. As a result, he killed people indiscriminately and shocked the whole of China. However, he was careless and lost Jingzhou in the end. From then on, Shu Han went downhill.

However, Wei Yan, the prefect of Hanzhong, guarded Hanzhong in obscurity for more than ten years without losing an inch of land.

Wei Yan and Guan Yu were both good at swordsmanship. Wei Yan was naturally far inferior to Guan Yu in terms of martial arts, but he was much stronger than Guan Yu in terms of character.

Public Security and Jiangling are combined into one, and 20,000 people can be allocated.

Liu Wu's headquarters had 20,000 men in Gong'an, Gao Shun had 3,000 men in Hefei, and 5,000 Chaohu navy troops were heading to Jingnan.

From the moment he stepped into Gong'an City, the outcome had already been decided. Now, the majority of the troops have surrendered. There are 20,000 naval troops from Jingzhou alone, and nearly 30,000 infantry.

In other words, Liu Wu now has an army of 80,000 under his command.

Of course, it still needs to be reorganized and a series of rectifications need to be carried out, which takes time...

Just as Liu Wu was feeling depressed and taking stock of his current assets, a soldier rushed in hurriedly.

ba da~
Liu Wu put down his wolf-hair brush and said calmly, "How is it outside the city? Is Liu Bei dead?"

The soldier knelt on one knee and said: "The army surrounded us, and a troop of two to three thousand suddenly rushed out, they wanted to rescue Liu Bei..."

"It's Kong Ming..." Liu Wu's eyes darkened.

Mr. Zhuge is truly worthy of being a teacher for all ages.

At this point, we can still recruit another two or three thousand people in the city to rescue Liu Bei.

Do not!
After he entered the city, the situation was already determined and people's hearts were on his side. Kong Ming could not even recruit two or three thousand people to rescue Liu Bei, let alone two or three hundred people...

Liu Wu suddenly realized that the two or three thousand people could only be the troops that Kong Ming had anticipated and placed outside the city in advance.

Moreover, this force is isolated from the outside world and is not affected by the situation!
What a great Zhuge Kongming!
Liu Wu sat down slowly and asked, "What happened next?"

"My lord, our army laid siege, and those two or three thousand men could not get in at all. Seeing that Liu Bei was about to die, Jiangdong Grand Commander Zhou Yu and Taishi Ci took action. The fourteen of them were extremely brave and acted as the vanguard. They led that group of people to tear open the gap and took Liu Bei and his men away..."

Liu Wu's face darkened: "What happened next?"

"Later, they rushed to the dock. Although the guards at the dock were Liu Xuande's former subordinates, they did not let them go directly. Instead, they persuaded Liu Xuande to return to Gong'an and admit his mistake to you, my lord..."

Liu Wu: "What do you mean by not letting them go directly?"

"The guards at the docks persuaded Liu Xuande to return to Gong'an, but Liu Xuande was unwilling. Later, Liu Xuande knelt down before the guards at the docks..."

"Liu Xuande burst into tears, saying that he would rather the world betray him than he betray the world. But the heavens were so cruel to him. Heaven helped Cao but not Liu. Since Heaven helped Cao but not Liu, how could we be prepared if we were prepared?"

"It was all this kind of talk. He knelt down and cried while saying..."

"Then the guards at the dock couldn't bear it any more, so they didn't stop him. He took his men on board the Jiangdong Navy's ship, sailed down the river, and went to Jiangdong to seek refuge with Sun Zhongmou..."

Enough said.

Liu Wu was in a bad mood.

Jiangdong rats, Jiangdong rats...

What a Jiangdong rat!
Be cautious and attack from both ends, stab in the back!
If Zhou Yu and his men had not taken action, Liu Bei would have died today.

Even if Kong Ming's more than 2,000 people could rescue Liu Bei, they would have nowhere to escape and would only become their own prisoners.

But now he has boarded a ship from Jiangdong to join Sun Zhongmou.

When Liu Bei was defeated by Cao Cao in Jingzhou, he went to Jiangdong to seek refuge with Sun Zhongmou. Now that he was defeated by himself in Gong'an City, he also went to Jiangdong to seek refuge with Sun Zhongmou...

At this time, Pang Tong, who had just returned from Jiangbei, suddenly rushed into the hall. He was holding a bamboo slip that should be a military report, and his face was red: "Zi Lie! A great victory in Hefei!"

"Sun Zhongmou has been captured alive and is on his way here!!!"

"Sun Zhongmou was captured alive!!"
