Chapter 844 Zitong was defeated and attacked
When Zhuge Liang rushed to Zitong County, he found that Yuan Tan had captured the city first, and he felt something was wrong.

If he could come here early, Zitong probably wouldn't have fallen into the enemy's hands so easily.

Now if he wanted to take Zitong down again, he had no choice but to attack the city.

And if they attack the city directly, they will inevitably have to pay a considerable price.

The current state of Shu cannot accept such a huge consumption.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang hesitated a little. At this moment, his mind was like a high-speed engine, and it started to run rapidly.

Want to come up with a good countermeasure immediately.

Yuan Tan in the city was also a little afraid of Zhuge Liang in the Shu army.

After all, this person is really touted as a bit deified by later generations.

As a result, Yuan Tan couldn't help being extremely vigilant.

Who knows if Zhuge Liang will come up with some clever strategies to defeat him.

Although Yuan Tan has invaded Zitong City now, with the help of the grain reserves in Zitong City, the army can persist for a few more days.

But after all, these are numerous, and they may be consumed by the well-prepared Shu army.

But if he wanted to go out and defeat Zhuge Liang, Yuan Tan was also beating the drum in his heart. After all, according to intelligence, Zhuge Liang had an army of 50.

This number is more than twice as many as his own. How can he defeat them head-on?
It is precisely because the commanders of both sides have their own concerns that the battle that should have been fierce has also been in a period of silence.

Since this war has been delayed for a long time, it is now entering summer.

The weather is getting hotter.

But it is even more uncomfortable in this land of Sichuan, and there is a little water vapor in the air now.

And Yuan Tan's leaders were all northern soldiers, who had just adapted to the water and soil in the middle of Sichuan.

Now it's hot again, which makes it even more difficult to adapt.

This made Yuan Jun's combat effectiveness gradually weaken again.

Yuan Tan is also particularly worried, this is simply a wave of ups and downs.

But when Zhuge Liang saw such a scene, he came up with a plan in his heart.

Immediately, the soldiers were asked to cut off the surrounding rivers, in order to cut off the water supply in Zitong City.

And this method also had immediate results, and soon the water level in Zitong dropped.

As a result, it is difficult for many people to cook.

Everyone complained, and the only friendship they had with Yuan Tan was wiped out because of this.

Many of them organized themselves spontaneously, causing unrest in the city.

As a result, there was a little bit of chaos in Zitong City.

Yuan Jun is also a little tired to deal with it.

Yuan Tan also did not expect that Zhuge Liang would think of this strategy of cutting off the canal and water.

This was simply a fatal blow to him.

Yuan Tan felt that he couldn't go on like this any longer.

Then he decided to retreat as an advance, thinking that Zitong City could no longer be defended with his current self.

So he reluctantly ordered to retreat.

Yuan Jun also gathered at this point and escaped from the city at night.

At night, Yuan Tan was particularly distressed when he saw the soldiers who were tortured by the scorching heat in the middle of Sichuan.

This situation had already occurred when he attacked Zitong.

But the soldiers gritted their teeth and persisted.

Just now they successfully entered the city, but now Yuan Tan is forced to abandon the city that the soldiers have worked so hard to build.

This simply failed the good intentions of these soldiers.

But now there is only this strategy of retreating troops available, Yuan Tan is also very helpless.

It was also at this moment that Yuan Tan also received a report that the soldiers in front were blocked.

Now they are at war with the Shu army.

Yuan Tan also had expected it a long time ago. He knew that Zhuge Liang must have planned this trip. After all, this person has no plans, so how could he ignore him and leave.

Thinking about it, there would be resistance, and Yuan Tan had already made this plan in his heart.

That's why I chose to retreat in the middle of the night, so that I could take advantage of the darkness and hide something.

The second reason is that the temperature in the middle of the night is more comfortable, which allows his soldiers to recover some combat power.

It will not be powerless to resist when encountering the Shu army.

But now that he encountered the resistance of the Shu army, Yuan Tan hurried forward on his horse.

At this moment, the former army was also extremely fierce when they fought against the ambushes of the Shu army.

Although the current combat power is relatively weak, the Shu army is not an elite generation.

This allowed the two armies to fight back and forth.

And Liao Hua, the general of Shuzhong, rushed back and forth in front of this.

That day I received Zhuge Liang's order to ambush Yuan Tan here.

So after seeing Yuan Jun, he immediately launched an attack.

At this moment, he didn't want to let any Yuan Jun let go of his defense line.

And when Yuan Tan arrived, Liao Hua just hacked one of Yuan Tan's soldiers to death.

Then I saw Yuan Tan's general's flag coming here.

Then I was overjoyed, if the Yuan Jun commander could be taken down this time, I think the Yuan family should retreat.

Then he left the crowd behind him and rushed straight to Yuan Tan.

Yuan Tan never panicked when he saw someone killing him.

Then he went forward on his horse and fought with him.

When Yuan Jun saw that Yuan Tan had also joined the battlefield, he was also encouraged by him, and his combat power increased a bit for a while.

And Liao Hua didn't care about Yuan Jun's change at the moment, and immediately fought with Yuan Tan.

But after a round with Yuan Tan, he gave up his previous stupid idea.

He never imagined how this Yuan Tan could be so powerful.

In just one round, he almost lost his life.

Afterwards, he made a clear decision that he should not even think about defeating Yuan Tan.

It's better to deal with Yuan Jun honestly, after all, he only needs to complete the blocking.

Zhuge Liang who wants to come now has also received the news, and is now bringing an army.

As long as Zhuge Liang's army arrives, his danger can be lifted.

At that time, when the two sides attack, Yuan Jun will break himself.

Liao Hua thought of this and started to gallop his horse back, but how could Yuan Tan let him go so easily.

Although he only passed one move, Yuan Tan also tried out the depth of this person.

Even this skill will not be unknown in the Shu army, and he should also be a general.

Yuan Tan didn't want to let him go easily. After all, such a character would be killed one by one.

Your own ordinary soldiers can also reduce a lot of casualties.

Liao Hua also didn't expect that Yuan Tan would actually be following him, so he panicked at this moment, and then kept asking the soldiers to make up for him, trying to stop Yuan Tan's footsteps.

But even Liao Hua couldn't resist Yuan Tan's blow.

How could these small soldiers stop Yuan Tan's footsteps.

Therefore, these people fell down without getting close to Yuan Tan.

Seeing that Yuan Tan was about to chase him down.

At this time, one person shouted: "General Liao, don't panic, I'll help you."

And from behind Yuan Jun, another person rushed up and killed him.

Seeing this, Liao Hua also understood that Zhuge Liang's reinforcements had arrived, and he was very excited.

It seems that the counterattack is about to begin.
