The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

After Xu Huang and Sun Jian's troops went down, Liu Zheng led Zhou Yu's [-] troops to Xiangyang.

Not long after, the [-] troops led by Liu Zheng arrived at the city of Xiangyang.

At this time, Xiangyang City was under martial law.

The city of Xiangyang is actually not particularly tall, because it has only been a few years since it became the seat of Jingzhou. The previous seat of Jingzhou has always been Jiangling City.

Until Liu Zheng appeared and occupied Changsha, Changsha was too close to Jiangling, and the threat was too great. In addition, Liu Biao was more optimistic about Xiangyang, thinking that it was a must-fight for military strategists. Lived in the throat of Jingzhou.

That's why the general government office was moved to Xiangyang.

But Liu Biao never thought that Xiangyang City would not be enough to stop Liu Zheng's army.

The [-] troops arrived in Xiangyang, and there was already a guard on the city tower of Xiangyang. Li Yan, as the guard, boarded the tower again.

After a few years, Liu Zheng came to Xiangyang again, and Li Yan was still the guard here.

Liu Zheng glanced at Xiangyang City, and instead of taking the initiative to stand up, he asked Sun Ce and Zhou Yu to speak up.

"Listen, people in the city, you have only one hour to open the city and surrender, otherwise our great Han Heavenly Army will attack the city, and you will not be able to bear the anger!"

Zhou Yu had become a general in his own right. He rode a horse and stepped out of the team, shouting towards the tower with a voice that was not childish.

Li Yan on the top of the city tower glanced down the city, seeing that Zhou Yu was just a half-grown doll, he felt a little contemptuous.

"Hahaha, I don't know who they are, they are just a group of baby soldiers."

Of course Li Yan knew that the people under the city were Liu Zheng's soldiers. How could Liu Zheng's soldiers be the baby army? Their strength was strong enough to make Li Yan terrified.

But Li Yan always wanted to cheer up the soldiers on his side. Saying it this way, it would appear that he was not that afraid of the enemy troops under the city.

It can also take the opportunity to anger the enemy generals under the city, so that the enemy army can be confused and directly launch an attack on Xiangyang City.

However, Zhou Yu was not fooled by Li Yan. After hearing Li Yan's words, he just sneered.

"Baby Army, haha, Baby Army will also let you rebels go around. Since you don't know how to praise, then this general will not give you any favor."

"Little baby, if you don't give me any favors, it's possible that you still want to rely on your little manpower to take down my city of Xiangyang."

"Hmph, what are you, you deserve to call me, and call your state shepherd Liu Biao to come out."

Zhou Yu didn't tell Li Yan much at all. From Zhou Yu's point of view, he was the leader of the first battalion anyway, and he didn't even like a young general like Li Yan.

Of course, the reason why he said this was that Zhou Yu wanted to despise Li Yan, and counterattacked that Li Yan despised him just now.

Sure enough, when Zhou Yu said this, Li Yan held his breath and almost couldn't catch his breath.

"Haha, Mr. State Shepherd, you little baby can see you whenever you want. If you have the ability, you can fight to the city, and if you don't, you can get out. I wonder if that guy Liu Zheng has no one under his command? Maybe he looked down on us in Jingzhou, and actually sent a little baby to attack Jingzhou."

Zhou Yu and Li Yan scolded each other for a while outside Xiangyang City. Both sides were sharp-tongued people. Although they didn't use vulgar words, they did not show weakness at all.

After a few quarrels, it attracted the attention of Liu Biao and other Xiangyang officials.

These people appeared one after another on the Xiangyang City Tower.

Liu Biao hurriedly went up the tower, poked his head out, and looked outside the city.

He shouted angrily at the people outside the city.

"You thieves, you dare to bring troops to invade my territory!"

The last time Liu Zheng's army attacked Xiangyang City, he had already frightened Liu Biao. Now that Liu Zheng sent troops to attack Xiangyang City, Liu Biao couldn't stand it anymore, as if his own backyard had become Where others came and left as they wished, he had no choice but to hide in the city.

Although Zhou Yu didn't know Liu Biao, he recognized Liu Biao when he saw Liu Biao's outfit on the tower.

"Is your Excellency Liu Biao and Liu Zhou Mu? I have come to recover Jingzhou under the order of my Majesty. Liu Biao Zhou Mu is of the same clan as my family's Majesty. My Majesty is willing to accept Liu Biao Zhou Mu's surrender. If the Zhou Mu is willing to open the city and surrender, my family Zhou Mu He will definitely treat Zhou Mu generously, why don't Zhou Mu think about it."

Zhou Yu looked at Liu Biao. He had already heard about Liu Biao, but he didn't show any concern. Although Liu Biao was a bit courageous, he was able to ride into Jingzhou alone and control the power of the intricate and powerful family in Jingzhou.

But Liu Biao is limited to this, he does not have the ability and courage to fight for world hegemony.

He also did not have the ability to enter Luoyang to assist Emperor Han, which made Liu Biao only a stepping stone on the road to success for others.

After Liu Zheng defeats Liu Biao, his power will inevitably increase greatly. At that time, the situation of the three kingdoms will be formed, and the power of the Han royal family will only become thinner day by day.He was gradually replaced by Liu Wu.

Of course, this is only what the civil servants and generals under Zhou Yu and Liu Zheng saw.

From the point of view of Liu Biao, the ministers who have always been loyal to the Han Dynasty, Liu Zheng is a rebellious minister, a traitor, and a target who should be wiped out.

At this moment, being ridiculed by Zhou Yu like this, Liu Biao couldn't help but get angry.

Immediately, he stood on the top of the city tower and cursed at Zhou Yu who was under the city.

"Rebellious ministers and thieves dare to proclaim themselves emperors. They simply don't know what is good or bad. Don't be too happy. You rebellious and arrogant will not last long. The court has been re-controlled by General Lu Zhi. Soon the court will count the soldiers and horses. Come to Jingzhou to help me! At that time, you rebels will die!"

Of course Liu Biao was not afraid. At this time, he was not worried about these people in the city. When he saw that there were only 2 people besieging Xiangyang, Liu Biao calmed down a little.

Although Xiangyang City is not strong, it cannot be defeated by 2 people.

Liu Zheng had been hiding in the army all this time and didn't speak a word. Now that Liu Biao came out, Liu Zheng didn't want to hide his identity anymore.

He took the initiative to walk out of the army under the protection of Dian Wei.

Before Zhou Yu answered Liu Biao, Liu Zheng coughed and took the initiative to answer Liu Biao on the tower.

"Long time no see Liu Jingsheng, don't come here to be safe."

Liu Zheng's opening made Liu Biao's eyes on Liu Zheng on the tower.

The moment he saw Liu Zheng, Liu Biao's expression immediately tightened, and then his expression changed drastically.

Liu Zheng's face was too familiar to Liu Biao. Ever since Liu Zheng besieged Xiangyang last time, it had become Liu Biao's nightmare.

Chapter 796 Battle and Surrender

The moment Liu Biao saw Liu Zheng, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak for a while.

It was Liu Zheng who took the initiative to speak, and said again to Liu Biao on the tower.

"Liu Jingsheng, you must be waiting for reinforcements from the imperial court, but I think your plan will come to nothing. The imperial court's troops are now only worried about Yuan Shao in Jizhou, not you!"

Compared with Liu Biao, Liu Bei's situation is serious, and I'm afraid it will not be much better than Liu Biao. Yuan Shao's massive attack on Yanzhou, and his soldiers pointing directly at Liu Bei are enough to shock the court.

In addition, Lu Zhi, who is in power, loves his student Liu Bei, so naturally he will not send the only army to Jingzhou. There are more or less tens of thousands of soldiers and horses guarding Jingzhou, and Lu Zhi will not think that Jingzhou will easily lose here.

As soon as Liu Zheng opened his mouth, Liu Biao's face darkened again. He was wondering at this moment, no wonder he had sent troops to Luoyang for help a few days ago.

However, there is still no sign of Luoyang's reinforcements so far, which makes Liu Biao suspicious. Is this really what Liu Zheng said?

Liu Biao didn't know the situation in Jizhou yet. After hearing Liu Zheng's words at this time, he realized that Liu Zheng was acting together with Yuan Shao this time, taking advantage of the internal turmoil in the court to launch an attack on the court.

"Liu Zheng, hum, so what if there is no reinforcement from the imperial court, I still have reinforcements from General Ding Yuan, they must have received my call for help, and they are on their way to Xiangyang at this moment, when their troops arrive, Our soldiers and horses have besieged you under the city of Xiangyang, let's see where you can escape."

"I was still worried about where to arrest you, but since you came to the door yourself, you have solved your big hidden danger for the court."

Liu Biao forced himself to calm down and was not intimidated by Liu Zheng.

Liu Zheng laughed twice.

"Hahaha, Liu Jingsheng, I only persuade you for the sake of our clan. Don't be ignorant of flattery. Do you think that if I dare to attack your Xiangyang City, I will be unprepared?"

"I brought [-] troops here. What you see outside Xiangyang City is only [-] soldiers and horses. The rest of them have already ambushed on the road from Jiangling to Xiangyang. As long as your reinforcements pass by, You must be ambushed, and when the time comes, do you still think that your city of Xiangyang will be saved?"

Liu Zheng once again threatened those people in Xiangyang City.

At this moment, those people on the gate tower who had some hope were frightened.

Even Liu Biao himself was startled by Liu Zheng's words.

"what!"

Li Yan, who was in charge of guarding the tower, was the first to come out in panic.

He still had some ideas of defending Xiangyang. After all, he knew that there were reinforcements in Jiangling and Hanyang. As soon as Ding Yuan and Zhang Liao's troops arrived, the matter in Xiangyang would be resolved.

But after hearing Liu Zheng's words, they felt that something was impossible.

"It's over, it's over, my lord, if what Liu Zheng said is true, then our city of Xiangyang will be very difficult to defend!"

Li Yan panicked and immediately looked at Liu Biao.

Liu Biao's face turned dark again, and he didn't dare to stay here any longer. He was also afraid, afraid that if he said a few more words to Liu Zheng, he would be persuaded by Liu Zheng, and he would collapse without fighting.

So, he retreated from the tower to appease Li Yan, who was already a little flustered.

Liu Biao took Kuai Yue, Cai Zhong and others back to his mansion.

State Shepherd House.

Liu Biao looked at the staff below in a panic.

"Everyone, what should we do now?"

Liu Biao was indeed flustered at this time and didn't know what to do. He was not afraid at first because he still had two sustenances and hopes in his heart.One is to think about sending him to Luoyang for help. Lu Zhi has just taken office, and he has heavy troops under his command, so he should be able to come to support him.

In addition, he still has soldiers and horses in Jiangling and Hanyang, which is completely sufficient to deal with the temporary crisis in Xiangyang.

But now I heard what Liu Zheng said, these two places are unreliable, only the manpower in Xiangyang is left, which is enough for people like Liu Biao to keep Xiangyang.

They are very clear about Liu Zheng's siege ability. The last time Liu Zheng attacked Xiangyang, they had already experienced Liu Zheng's power.

Liu Biao looked at Kuai Yue, Cai Zhong, Zhang Yun and others.

These few people are currently Liu Biao's most staunch supporters.

Of course, Cai Zhong is only a marginal figure, and Kuai Yue and Zhang Yun are the two.

"Alien, can you do it?"

Different degree is Kuai Yue's cousin, in Liu Biao's heart, Kuai Yue's elder brother Kuai Liang is the one he trusts the most, but now that Kuai Liang is no longer there, Liu Biao can only rely on Kuai Yue.

Kuai Yue remained silent for a long time, he couldn't think of any solution in this desperate situation.

"My lord, if what Liu Zheng said is true, then we really have nothing to do now."

Originally, he had hoped that Kuai Yue could help him find a solution, but now when he heard Kuai Yue's words, Liu Biao's face became even more unsightly.

"It's not a solution to be helpless, you can't wait to die here."

Liu Biao began to feel a little angry at this time.

"My lord, for now, there are only two choices."

"What choice?"

Liu Biao looked at Kuai Yue, wanting to hear some useful advice from Kuai Yue.

"Fight and surrender."

"If your lord is sure, then continue to fight Liu Zheng here and hold on to the time. We may not be sure that what Liu Zheng said is true. We can't say what he says. Let's believe it. As long as we stick to it, we may not be without hope. .”

"If your lord is unwilling to fight, then you can simply surrender. Liu Zheng these days, we also know that he is not a bloodthirsty person. If your lord surrenders, he may not be able to die well. At least Liu Zheng is now fighting with the court. It is also playing the banner of a big man, just seeking an orthodox status."

Kuai Yue has no backbone in history. After Liu Biao's death, both the Kuai family and the Cai family supported Liu Cong's surrender to Cao, and they didn't even have the courage to fight.

Although Liu Cong lost Jingzhou after surrendering to Cao Cao, it can be regarded as a good end.

It's just that after that, these celebrities and rich families in Jingzhou didn't have any real influence in Cao Wei's camp.

But considering Kuai Yue and Cai Mao's identities, it's normal. It doesn't matter who surrenders. Anyway, it's just a change of ruler, and it doesn't matter to people like them.

Should they be a noble family or a noble family, who cares about the life and death of the lord.

When Liu Biao heard Kuai Yue's description, he fell into deep thought for a while.

Is it war or surrender?

For these years, Liu Biao himself was a little tired from guarding Jingzhou.

Chapter 797 Taking Ding Yuan Alive

Liu Biao himself was not from a big family. Although he was a member of the Han family, he would not have much influence in Liu Biao's generation, otherwise he would not be able to be a Jingzhou shepherd.

Liu Biao, who is over [-] years old now, always feels that he is old and has lost the vigor that he had when he first came to Jingzhou.

Being attacked by Liu Zheng one after another, Liu Biao didn't even have the courage to stop Liu Zheng. Instead of living and dying with Xiangyang City here, surrender may be something Liu Biao can accept.

But just relying on Liu Zheng's few words to make him surrender, Liu Biao seemed too spineless.

Even if he agrees, what will the other princes think of him in this world in the future.

Liu Biao couldn't bear this kind of infamy.

So in the end, the United States can directly choose to surrender with Liu Zheng.
