The Supreme Call of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 413 Soldiers Surround Danyang City

Yanling Ferry fell, and Wu County fell, and the news spread to Danyang City and Moling Ferry almost at the same time.

Just two days after Liu Bei arrived in Danyang City, he was devastated by these two bad news and lost the Yanling Ferry. , That means that Yue Fei's army can get a stable supply of food and grass, not only a stable supply of food and grass, but also a steady stream of reinforcements will come from Yanling Ferry.

Now Yue Fei no longer has to worry about being alone and helpless. With a stable supply of grain and grass and reinforcements, who can stop Yue Fei from looking at the entire Jiangdong?

"Yuan Zhi, Yuan Zhi, what should we do now?"

Liu Bei asked anxiously.

Xu Shu smiled wryly and said: "My lord, our only chance now is to defend Danyang City, hoping that Cao Cao will attack Liu Xiao's back. Only relying on Jiangdong and Jingzhou, we can no longer turn the tide of the battle. If we lose all our elites, how can we still be Yue Fei's tiger and wolf division?" Even Shi Yuan has little chance of winning against Liu Xiao and Zhou Yu on the north shore."

The corner of Liu Bei's mouth twitched. He and Pang Tong had calculated a lot, but they missed Yue Fei's sneak attack on Yanling Ferry. One wrong move, and the whole game was lost, but even if the calculation came true, so what?Facing Xue Rengui's elite army of [-] Beiwei, even if Guan Ping leads tens of thousands of troops, he may not be able to defend the Yanling Ferry. Where can he find tens of thousands of troops for Guan Ping?
Although the city was lost, it was really not Guan Ping's fault. It was impossible for three thousand troops to resist Xue Rengui or Zhao Yun.

"Cao Cao, Cao Cao..."

Liu Bei's face was full of bitterness, and he finally murmured that he had just pissed off Cao Cao, but Cao Cao had pissed off himself several times, and it was really extravagant to expect Cao Cao to save his life at a critical moment...

"My lord, although the situation in Jiangdong is tight now, Jingzhou is still in our hands. We must prepare for the fall of Jiangdong. Once Jiangdong is defeated, then we have to go to Jingzhou. I mean, absolutely not Huang Zhong was ordered to lead the army back to aid, but to recruit troops in Jingzhou to strengthen our strength. Once Jiangdong falls, we can still lie dormant in Jingzhou, recuperate, and prepare for a comeback. If something happens in Jingzhou at this time, then we will be There is no way back..."

Xu Shu said in a deep voice.

Liu Bei suddenly woke up, that's right, let Huang Zhong come back to help, but Huang Zhong doesn't have many troops in his hands. Jingzhou's elite forces have already been mobilized by him, and now the entire Jingzhou can gather [-] to [-] troops. Now, we have to defend the entire seven counties of Jingzhou, obviously insufficient troops. At this time, Huang Zhong is being recalled. If Cao Cao in the north is breaking his promise and sending a general to lead the army into Xiangyang, then he will be really miserable. I'm afraid I won't be able to keep it!
"Yuan Zhi is right, Huang Zhong cannot be allowed to rush to help Jiangdong, Jingzhou must be firmly guarded!"

Liu Bei said anxiously: "Immediately send an order to Jingzhou's Ji Yue and Han Xuan to recruit troops with all their strength, order Huang Zhong to lead the main force to station in Xiangyang, guard the front line between Xiangyang and Jiangxia, and prevent Cao Cao from going south!"

While talking, a pawn ran in quickly!
"Report! Report to the lord!"

The pawn knelt down on the ground and said anxiously: "Yue Fei led the army to attack the city again, and I ask the lord to make a decision!"

Liu Bei's heart was shocked, and he shouted: "Yuanzhi, Yide, follow me to the top of the city!"

Liu Bei led the civil and military officials all the way to the top of the city, only to see Yue Fei's army under the city was stronger than before!
Yue Fei stood in the center at the front of the army, holding the Lingzi flag, Xue Rengui and Gao Shun were on the left, Zhao Yun and Tai Shici were on the right, and behind the five generals were countless elite cavalry!
There are more than 1 elite cavalry and nearly [-] elite infantry. Together, the force has exceeded [-], which is more than twice the force of Danyang City.

Now Yue Fei is full of confidence. It was difficult to win Danyang County. It was because there were too few infantry in his hands, only [-] infantry. It was not so easy to capture Danyang City, which was heavily occupied by troops. As for the cavalry, among the elite cavalry , when attacking the city, it can only be a display to increase morale. You can't let the cavalry charge against the tall city wall, right?

The natural mission of the cavalry is to fight in the field. To wipe out the enemy's vital force in the wilderness, to attack the city or to defend the camp is not what they are good at. It is not easy to train cavalry. That's a waste of money.

It's different now, Zhao Yun and Taishi Ciyi brought [-] infantry in one go, and they went out to take command of Wu County, and there are still [-] troops to support them, and they are all elite troops brought from the Central Plains. Powerful.

"Since there are enough troops, what are you waiting for? Attack!"

Under the urging of Xue Rengui and others, Yue Fei launched an attack on Danyang City. Wave after wave of Central Plains infantry, under the cover of archers, began to launch a crazy offensive towards the city head!

However, this Danyang City does not need Wu Jun. Although Wu Jun's city is also strong, it cannot be compared with Danyang City. This is Liu Bei's lair. The entire Danyang City has been rebuilt and strengthened in the past two years. , the moat is wide and deep, it is really solid, even if the Central Plains is extremely powerful, facing this Danyang City, there is nothing to do, battering rams, ramming cars are useless, and it is almost impossible to leave the slightest trace when they hit Danyang City. trace!
Yue Fei attacked for three consecutive days, and his mood suddenly became heavy. No way, after three days of strong attack, he lost troops and lost generals. He could not shake Danyang City at all. This Danyang City is too strong!
"Order, the army rests for three days, and fights again in three days!"

Yue Fei shouted in a deep voice.

"Take a rest?"

Tai Shici said urgently: "Governor, is there any mistake? We have only attacked for three days, and our combat strength is not damaged, and our morale is high. How can we rest at this time?"

Yue Fei shook his head and replied: "Danyang City is extremely strong, and there are Xu Shu, Zhang Fei and others sitting in the city, and there are still more than [-] troops. It is impossible to forcefully break through the city, even if it is a fluke. Danyang City, do you want to throw our tens of thousands of elites in Danyang City?"

Everyone fell silent, stormed for three days, and the casualties of the army exceeded 2000. Although the casualties in Danyang City were not small, no one could afford such consumption. An elite teacher who has just worked hard!

Zhao Yun pondered and said: "Pengju, you have to think of a good strategy, and a strong attack won't work; but waiting like this is not a long-term solution..."

Yue Fei sneered and said, "Why not keep waiting? We have completely cut off the connection between Danyang City and the outside world. Although there is a lot of food and grass in the city, it cannot withstand the consumption of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians. At most three months, they Food and grass will be cut off, and they will starve to death in four months! I don't believe Liu Bei can support him!"
