At the beginning Liu Bei swore that this would work, but now he still can't fight against Xu Ding's men.
It feels very uncomfortable to capture the eastern part of Liaoxi County, the vassal state of Liaodong County, and the western part of Liaodong County without a fight.
Gongsun Zan was a lunatic, he felt comfortable when he had an opponent, and he felt insulted when he won without an opponent.
Liu Bei pointed at the Xiandu city and said, "Isn't Bogui still having a Xiandu city now? Let's check it first. It has been a few days since the Xiandu city has not surrendered. I guess there is some reason, or maybe Xu Shu had Thinking that we will come, maybe there are heavy troops deployed in this city, and they want to defend it to the death!"
Gongsun Zan shook his head and said, "There aren't many soldiers in the city. I've been besieging the city for so many days, and there are only a hundred or so people patrolling the top of the city. I feel like I'm attacking the city, and they will open the city and surrender immediately."
Gongsun Zan laughed at himself when he said this.
Because people surrendered not because they surrendered, but because Xu Shu had already given the order. This kind of victory came too easily, and there was no sense of accomplishment.
So it's a stain on his honor as a fighter.
Liu Bei was silent for a while, and then said to his subordinates: "Siege the city, let our soldiers go up, let me see how long Xu Shu will endure? What the hell is he doing? Is it true that we have to wait for Xu Ding to come out?" As a result, he was willing to fight."
Soon Liu Bei's troops will line up and attack the city with shouts. The soldiers rushed to the city, but they were not counterattacked by the arrows, but the city gate was pushed open.
Then Yiqi rushed out and said to Liu Bei's army: "I am willing to surrender to Tinghou!"
Liu Bei's people stopped one after another, their faces twitching unnaturally.
Gongsun Zan was granted the title of Marquis of Duting because of his service in Youzhou. Although he was the lowest Marquis, he was still a Marquis.
It was obviously the city attacked by Liu Bei's troops, but people said they would vote for Gongsun Zan.
This made Liu Bei's subordinate boss unhappy.
"Look, Xuande, I'm right. They surrendered again. I don't know whether to be happy or happy." Gongsun Zan glanced in the direction of the gate of Xiandu City, then turned his head and walked away. He didn't want to enter the city, feeling It doesn't make sense.
He used to like this feeling of victory very much, he was obsessed with the joy of defeating others, he liked the feeling that others worshiped him and made him a hero.
But after Liu Yu's death and the attack on Xu Ding, all this has been quietly changing.
The victory came so quickly, it must not be commendable.
Back at the barracks, Gongsun Zan stared in the direction of Liaohe for a long time, didn't he know what he was thinking?
Liu Bei was also stunned for a while, and Liu Yan, his adviser, said: "My lord, since General Gongsun Zan won't enter the city, let's go in."
Liu Bei nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Okay, then let's enter the city."
Gongsun Zan felt burdened, but he, Liu Bei, did not.
Gongsun Zan had a good face and loved vanity, but he, Liu Bei, was practical, so he led people into the city happily.
No matter what conspiracy Xu Shu has, this lost city cannot be faked. If you, Xu Shu, want to throw it out as bait, then I will unhook you first and slowly eat the meat.
Chapter 648 Xu Shu's Counterattack
"Wei Shuo, do you think Xu Shu will continue to retreat?" After entering Dandu City, Liu Bei stepped on the city wall and looked at Liaodong County to the east of the Liaohe River. Liaodong County is a big county.
I heard that Liaodong County is developing very well now.
If the population has a population, it will no longer be as barren as it used to be.
I heard that there is a factory or something like that here, which can make a lot of good things.
As long as he wins here, he can ruthlessly break Xu Ding's arm.
And take away some goodies.
Liu Yan said: "My lord, Xu Shu will not be retreating anymore, he has put all his forces in the upper, middle and lower cities of Liaohe River, and he intends to fight a protracted war with us.
If we want to cross the river and fight in the hinterland of Eastern Liaodong, I'm afraid it will be difficult.
Of course, it is still easy for General Gongsun’s cavalry to cross the river, but without the infantry to follow, his cavalry is easily besieged by Xu Shu. After all, the seventh school’s cavalry has never appeared. I don’t know where Xu Shu hid them. When will it come out, we have to guard against it. "
"Is it no wonder that this is the only way to go? There is no chance to take down Liaodong? Then our dispatch of troops this time is of little significance."
The territory we have set up right now is huge, but if we can’t win Liaodong and deal with Xu Ding’s hoarding of heavy troops in Liaodong, if Zhonglu Lunanlu fails and Xu Dingshi leads his troops northward, then he and Gongsun Zan will have to be obedient Return the occupied land to Xu Ding.
So Liu Bei was not reconciled.
Liu Yan said: "My lord, it's not that there is no chance. Do we still have an ally? Budugen should be able to get results soon. If he can't even kill the mixed cavalry of the Guiyi Army, then they are from the Xianbei grassland. The position of hegemony ceased to exist.
I think he will do his best. As soon as the Guiyi army is over, the Xianbei army will definitely attack Xuantu County, which will pose a threat to Xu Shu's north side. By then, Liaodong County, which seems to be a monolith, will no longer be an insurmountable place. "
"So, we still have to wait for those barbarians to open up the situation." Liu Bei said a little unhappy.
Liu Yan said: "My lord, there is nothing we can do. After all, Xu Shu still has a naval force in his hands, and Xu Ding has more than one naval force under him. Apart from Lu Su, we can't ignore the fact that there is also Qingzhou in Pingzhou." navy.
It is possible for these navy troops to go north to support Xu Shu. "
Speaking of Xu Ding's navy, Liu Bei frowned slightly.
The reason why Xu Ding is the most powerful to all the princes in the world is because he has an invincible navy in his hands.
Ask all the states in the world, how many have no big rivers, and how many cannot pass through ships.
Although the amount of water in the north is not as abundant as that in the south, and the river network is not densely distributed, there are many big rivers.
Many are more barrier-like than those in the South.
Of course, this is during the wet season, and during the dry season and severe winter, the flexibility of the boat will be poor.
But the problem is that it is mid-spring now, and it will be spring before early summer in a while.
In Liaodong, this is the flood season, the river is soaring, and it is easier for warships to enter and exit the river, which is more effective in fighting emergencies.
Therefore, Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan had to leave a large number of troops to control the river and deal with Xu Ding's navy.
Of course, in the days that followed, Gongsun Zan would still take cavalry to the upper reaches of the Liao River from time to time, looking for opportunities to cross the river and enter Liaodong.
But along the river, all the shallows that could be suitable for cavalry to cross the river were guarded by Xu Shu's people, and a large number of blocking devices were set up on the east bank of the river.
Gongsun Zan saw that the upstream was not good enough, so he ran downstream again.
Although the lower reaches of the Liaohe River were wider, the water was stable, which was actually more suitable for large troops to cross the river. Moreover, once the river was crossed, there was no main road to block it on the east bank, and the cavalry could go straight to Xiangping City.
Even if you can't attack Xiangping, you can attack other nearby cities. You must know that these cities are also factories set up in Liaodong by Guangbu Xu.
Especially what is called the railway, two parallel thick rails erected with a width of more than one meter, the car can walk in front of it, and it can pull people, goods or convenience.
This is a good thing to guarantee logistics.
Of course, it doesn't matter even if you get Sun out of his transportation, just those long and thick rails can make a lot of sharp weapons.
