Liu Yu, who was given the good guy card by Liu Xie, is now lying in a carriage, enjoying the massage and backbeating of two beautiful palace ladies. Liu Yu is now on his way back to Luoyang, and he has no choice but to stay in Xuchang.

What's the meaning.

The two palace maids gently massaged Liu Yu's back. They looked at Liu Yu eagerly and deliberately opened their clothes a little to cover them up, hoping that something wonderful would happen with Liu Yu.

If you want to do something, you can fly up a branch and become a phoenix. Moreover, Liu Yu's appearance is very attractive, which makes the two palace maids feel like deers.

This thought can only be buried in my heart, because there is another man in the carriage, that is Li Gui. The two palace ladies looked at Li Gui angrily at the same time. He is really an ignorant person. He is too much trouble here. They

It is a rare opportunity for the two of them to get close to Liu Yu. With Li Gui here, they can't do anything else. If they waste this opportunity, God knows if they will have the chance to get close to Liu Yu. The two beautiful palace ladies hope

Li Gui hurry up and get out of the carriage.

Obviously the hopes of the two palace maids were dashed. Li Gui took out a piece of parchment and said, "Your Majesty, this is important information collected by the Anbu recently. Please give your approval!"

"Yes." Liu Yu took it over leisurely and looked at it slowly.

The intelligence was compiled by the "secret department" and was the result of some previous arrangements.

First of all, the "Anbu" has successfully established its own branch within the forces of Liu Zhang and Liu Biao and has gradually penetrated into the core areas. It will probably not take long to form a large scale in their two territories.

Liu Yu was very satisfied with this. He knew that intelligence was a very important factor. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you be victorious in every battle.

"Why hasn't Picheng been conquered yet!?" Liu Yu saw the information that made him very unhappy.

Li Gui had already collected intelligence, and even took the battle reports of Guan Yu and Zhao Yun, and said: "Your Majesty, Xiapi City is the strongest city in Xuzhou. Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren gathered a large number of soldiers and horses for defense in the city. Guan Yu and Zhao Yun both

The general failed to attack many times. Sun Ce's army only hovered in the territory promised to them by His Majesty, and occasionally sent troops to attack for a while without investing much troops. In addition, the ANBU also discovered that this time Liu Xie had a son, and Sun Ce also sent

I gave Liu Xie a gift. I guess Sun Ce wanted to have both sides."

Of course Liu Yu knew what Sun Ce was thinking, and snorted coldly: "Let this boy Sun Ce be proud for a while. When I am free, I will deal with him and teach him how to behave for his father! Order Guan Yu, Zhao Yun wants to

Attack Xiapi City as soon as possible, our army wasted too much time in Xuzhou."

Li Gui felt Liu Yu's anger, "I understand, I will send your Majesty's orders to Generals Guan Yu and Zhao Yun right away!"

"Remember, let them not worry, just attack Xiapi City!" Liu Yu warned.

Li Gui hurriedly wrote it down and handed the order to Liu Yu. Liu Yu took out his big seal and pressed it directly.

Liu Yu thought of Liu Bei in Xuzhou. It seemed that there was no information about Liu Bei in the intelligence, and asked: "Why is there no news about Liu Bei?"

Li Gui said: "Reporting to your Majesty, Liu Bei went from Xiapi City to Xiaopeizhong for some reason. Then during this time, he ran to Shouchun. I heard that he went to celebrate Liu Xie's son in person.

"

Liu Yu secretly praised Liu Bei's strong ability to predict danger, and chose to run away so quickly. No wonder he could survive for so long in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, dragging Cao Cao to death.

"Tell the ANBU to pay more attention to Liu Bei's situation from now on. If possible, kill Liu Bei!" Liu Yu gave the order.

Liu Yu's murderous intention was already obvious, Li Gui said with a ferocious smile: "I understand, little one!"

Liu Bei, who was rushing to runan to take up his post, suddenly felt a chill and couldn't help but panic.

Liu Bei has an innate sense of danger, and his current feeling tells him that danger is approaching him, but this feeling is fleeting, and Liu Bei cannot figure out what danger he is in.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Fei came to ask with concern.

Liu Bei shook his head and said: "It's okay, let's continue on our way!"

Liu Bei took Zhang Fei and others and ran towards Runan, where there was still a mess that he needed to deal with.

Guan Yu and Zhao Yun, who were ordered by Liu Yu to capture Xiapi as soon as possible, were now looking at Xiapi City, which they could not capture after repeated attempts.

Xia Houyuan and Cao Hong used various defensive strategies to defend Xiapi City and blocked Guan Yu and Zhao Yun's attack. Sun Ce, on the other hand, had no intention of marching. Occasionally, he would send an army to help, but there was no

There was too much effort, and at most he just meant it, performed his duty as an ally, and then left.

Due to various factors, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun once again withdrew their troops from Xiapi City.

Returning to the Chinese army's tent, Hou Cheng, who was in charge of the siege this time, threw his helmet on the ground and said: "This kind of battle cannot be fought! If we continue to fight like this, our losses will be too great."

Guan Yu frowned. Hou Cheng felt a little helpless by doing this, and his face couldn't help but turn livid.

Zhao Yun knew Hou Cheng's resentment and said softly: "General Hou, please calm down. We need to consider the long term."

Hou Cheng calmed down and realized that he had just offended the two generals. He apologized and said, "I was reckless just now. Please punish the two generals."

Hou Cheng's apology made Guan Yu's expression improve, and he said: "Don't do this next time."

Hou Cheng bowed his hands and found a seat in the Chinese army tent to sit down.

In the big tent, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Guo Tu, and Hou Cheng began to study how to break Xiapi City.

"Our army has launched many attacks on Xiapi City, but it has been unable to shake Xiapi City. If this continues, our army's strength and morale will be greatly affected." Zhao Yun said worriedly.

"It's all Sun Ce who has been cheating. If he had been able to help, our army would have captured Xiapi long ago." Hou Cheng said angrily.

Guo Tu said: "What is Sun Ce's strategy? We already knew it when we bought the alliance with him. The main reason is that Xiahou Yuan has reinforcements in Xiapi City. Xiahou Yuan is a wise and brave general, and he guards Xiapi City.

, I’m afraid it won’t be easy for our army to conquer Xiapi.”

"Military advisor, can you use the strategy of luring a snake out of its hole to lure Xiahou Yuan out of the city, and our army will kill him in the field?" Zhao Yun proposed a strategy.

"It's difficult, let's not talk about whether we can defeat Xiahou Yuan in a field battle. With Xia Houyuan's wisdom, the best choice is to stick to Xia Pi. I estimate that Xia Houyuan will not be tempted by our army." Guo Tu did not agree with Zhao Yun's strategy.

After Zhao Yun finished listening, he lowered his head and began to ponder again, but he could not think of any other strategies to break the city.

Guan Yu, who had been silent until now, suddenly said: "I have a plan to defeat Xiapi City, but it will only hurt Tianhe."

Guo Tu and others were overjoyed and said, "Since Guan Yu has a good strategy, why didn't he make it clear earlier?"

After Guan Yu was silent for a while, he said calmly: "Dig the water from Si and pour it into Pi!"

Zhao Yun, Guo Tu, and Hou Cheng finally understood why Guan Yu said before that it would hurt Tianhe. Water and fire are ruthless, and no one can control the consequences.

They were all silent. If there were troops on the other side, they would use this strategy without hesitation. But there were countless unarmed people in Xiapi City. They were all innocent. As generals, they really couldn't do that.

Seeing that Zhao Yun and others were silent, Guan Yu said: "This general knows that this strategy is too cruel, so I can't bear to speak out."

Zhao Yun and others had expressions of approval. If they had thought of this strategy, they would not have dared to implement it.

One of Zhao Yun's soldiers came in and said, "Generals and military advisors, Your Majesty has a decree."

Guan Yu and others hurriedly stood up and took over Liu Yu's order.

Liu Yu asked Guan Yu and the others to capture Xiapi. Only by capturing Xiapi could they form a multi-faceted attack on Yanzhou.

After reading Liu Yu's decree, Guan Yu said to Zhao Yun: "Zilong, your Majesty's decree requires us to capture Xiapi. Perhaps the only way is the one I just mentioned."

Guan Yu and Zhao Yun are the two major generals. If Guan Yu wants to implement the water attack strategy, he must obtain Zhao Yun's consent.

After Zhao Yun struggled for a while, he said: "For your Majesty, this is the only way!"

After Guan Yu saw that Zhao Yun agreed, he looked at Guo Tu and Hou Cheng. Hou Cheng had no problem at all. He was promoted from a lower level by Liu Yu and fully recognized any order given by Liu Yu.

Guo Tu expressed his worries and said: "The weather has been dry recently, so I'm afraid there won't be enough water in Surabaya."

Guo Tu was right to worry. It didn't rain at all during this period, and the amount of water in Surabaya alone was not enough to carry out a water attack.

As soon as Guo Tu said this, the big tent fell into silence again.

A dull sound followed, and Guan Yu and others stood up in surprise, and then ran out of the tent.

Guan Yu saw a group of dark clouds slowly drifting from the horizon, and the sound just now was the sound of thunder.

"Haha, God help me! Zilong, now is the time for us to implement our strategy." Guan Yu said with a smile.

Zhao Yun nodded firmly, now is the best opportunity to attack Xiapi City.

"Instruct the whole army to move to the right side. Hou Cheng led five thousand infantry and immediately went to the Sishui river embankment. When the river water rose, they dug the embankment and attacked Xiapi with water!" Guan Yu immediately issued the order.

"General, I obey!" Hou Cheng immediately obeyed Guan Yu's order.

Guan Yu looked at Xiapi City. This city had a beautiful memory before, but now he wanted to destroy it with his own hands.

Zhao Yun knew what Guan Yu was thinking, so he walked up to Guan Yu and patted him on the shoulder.

Guan Yu smiled slightly and expressed his gratitude.

Xiahou Yuan and Cao Hong from Xiapi City were drinking tea in the presence of the old god. They were very confident in the defense of Xiapi City.

"Miaocai, now I know the difference between me and you. Xiapi City is as stable as Mount Tai in your hands." Cao Hong thought of Xia Houyuan and complimented him.

Xia Houyuan said modestly: "I just took advantage of the strong city. It would be the same if you were Zilian to guard it."

"I don't have your ability. Without you, Pi City would have been captured by the enemy troops outside the city." Cao Hong said with a smile.

The two complimented each other and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

"What do you think the enemy will do next? Do we need to make any other preparations?" Cao Hong talked about the next thing.

"In my opinion, the enemy army may use provocation to lure us out of the city to fight in the field. As long as we hold back, the enemy army can only look at the city and sigh. Although Liu Jun and Sun Ce are united, but Sun Ce's side

But he is not sincerely cooperating with Liu Jun. According to the scout report, Sun Ce's army is stabilizing the occupied area in the south of Xuzhou. I think Sun Ce probably wants to sit back and watch our army fight to the death with Liu Jun, and then he will make another fisherman's profit.

"It's a pity that he overestimated Liu Jun's combat power and underestimated the strength of our army. As long as I wait and stay in the city, they can only watch." Xia Houyuan had already made plans in his mind to defend Xiapi City against him

Said there was no problem.

What Xia Houyuan said was similar to what Cao Hong thought. Cao Hong also believed that Xiapi City was not something Liu Jun and Sun Ce could capture.

Several thunder sounds were heard, and a heavy rain suddenly fell.
