The first thousand three hundred and fifty-eight chapters, but the moon city is desperate
Chapter 1,358 Queyue City’s Desperate Situation
The reason why Sun Shangxiang didn't come out is very simple.
Because just now, Zhao Yun came back, bringing with him a group of female jackal guards and...
"Ying'er! Ning'er! I...wuwuwu...I thought...I thought I would never see you again...wuwuwu..."
Sun Shangxiang's cry was particularly special among the noisy sounds of the military camp.
Ying'er and Ning'er burst into tears when they saw Sun Shangxiang. Even if they received rigorous training, they would inevitably burst into tears.
Zhao Yun just watched quietly for a while, then quietly left, leaving a separate space for them.
No one wants to see a warm reunion, but... the deep melancholy between Zhao Yun's brows will not dissipate.
He had more important things to tell Yi Xiaotian.
Also just now...
Yi Xiaotian met Zhao Yun and learned that he had completed his mission, and also learned that the enemy's reinforcements were coming.
"Isn't there less than 20,000 people..."
Hearing that the other party would have an army of no less than 20,000 people rushing to aid Wancheng, Yi Xiaotian confirmed his guess.
Now is the decisive battle...
Once Liu Bei and others are dragged over, they will never have a chance to keep each other.
At this time, Yi Xiaotian couldn't help but worry about Cao Ren, who was far away in Jiangxia.
Twenty thousand - this number is very sensitive. According to Yi Xiaotian's knowledge, before the flood came, there must be at least 10,000 of the opponent's troops left in Wuchang and even near Chaisang.
Now that this number has increased, it is not difficult to realize that it is due to the help of others.
Combined with the subsequent loss of contact with Jiangxia, the answer is ready to come out as to who assisted.
Guan Yu…
"My dear friend...you must be safe and sound..."
Yi Xiaotian couldn't think too much anymore and could only pray that Cao Ren could avert the danger.
What he can do is directly defeat Liu Bei's army in Wancheng.
Let the other party's purpose of rushing to help be in vain.
——
"Then...how are the others doing?
If not, if you give me some more of those grenades, I will definitely be able to lead people to break through the South City Gate... and capture the big-eared thief alive!"
Sun Quan said anxiously
He knew he wasn't helping much, but since there were still grenades——
That's what he thought, but Yi Xiaotian shook his head and pointed to the wooden box behind him.
Sun Quan took advantage of the situation and looked around, but couldn't help being stunned for a long time by what he saw.
empty…
That is to say…
"Yi Xiaotian...could it be possible...we can't attack Wancheng today..."
When he said this, Sun Quan's voice was trembling.
Without grenades, for Sun Quan, it meant that the opponent's city gate could never be breached.
If you can't reach the city gate, how can you defeat the enemy?
However, Yi Xiaotian's explanation made Sun Quan reluctantly breathe a sigh of relief:
"No, I have already given the last grenades to Zhang Liao."
"If nothing else happens, the East City Gate..."
Everything went as planned by Yi Xiaotian. Just as they were talking, they were galloping together from a distance.
"Report! Report sir! The east city gate has been breached! The general is leading an army to occupy the outer city!"
"I know, tell Zhang Liao... and make a quick decision!"
"yes!"
The cavalryman didn't even get off his horse, but he knew that Yi Xiaotian would never accuse him of being rude.
Sure enough, Yi Xiaotian immediately gave the next step of instructions, and the cavalry hurriedly agreed and turned around and left without even looking at Sun Quan.
"The east city gate...is broken?
Really or not! Yi Xiaotian! No... eh... where did Zhang Liao get his troops? Aren't his troops all in the south of the city? "
But after hearing Sun Quan's doubts, Yi Xiaotian didn't explain anything.
Because just at that moment, he suddenly felt a twinge of heart palpitations.
This feeling was just like the sudden dizziness he felt when he doubted his own influence on history and the laws of the world's operation.
Sun Quan looked at Yi Xiaotian with a blank expression, but saw Yi Xiaotian suddenly covering his chest with his hands, his expression looking very painful. In just a blink of an eye, cold sweat broke out on Yi Xiaotian's forehead.
This frightened Sun Quan. He thought he had frightened Yi Xiaotian by speaking too loudly in excitement, but then he thought about it...how could it be possible...
"Yi Xiaotian! Are you...are you okay?"
"gentlemen?
What's wrong with you, sir?"
Huang Yueying and Lu Lingqi, who were next to them, also noticed something was wrong with Yi Xiaotian and hurriedly approached him to ask.
only…
Yi Xiaotian gently pushed them away, turned around amid everyone's worried and doubtful eyes, and looked far to the west.
That is the direction of Jiangxia.
For some reason, Yi Xiaotian had a bad premonition.
——
Yi Xiaotian roughly guessed that Cao Ren's current situation was not very good, but he didn't know what Cao Ren was facing now.
The water level is rising again... The rain in Jiangxia is erratic. There was a trend of clearing up yesterday, but half a day later, this morning, it suddenly turned into a violent storm.
The location of Queyue City is barely at a high place, but it is not quite safe.
As part of Xiakou, Queyue City was abandoned before. One reason was that Huang Zu was killed and Sun Ce vented his anger and massacred the city. Another reason was that Queyue City itself was located in an area affected by floods.
Even...even if there wasn't this once-in-a-hundred-year flood.
Previously, Cao Ren and Wenpin were able to retreat to Queyue City because the river partially changed its course due to the increased impact, causing the terrain near Queyue City to rise.
But obviously, this is only a temporary change.
Cao Ren and Wenpin, who did not know much about Jiangxia, misjudged the situation and refused to give up this perfect location to block Guan Yu's attack after the flood. Instead, they fell into complete trouble after the instantaneous rise in water.
Queyue City is about to be flooded.
The water outside the city has spread to the vicinity of the city gate. If this trend continues, within two hours, the city will be flooded with water.
Wenpin, who noticed this, suggested to Cao Ren that he abandon the city. Cao Ren also knew that if he did not abandon the city, he would be seeking death.
In two days, they relied on scraps in the city to build several ships that were barely able to sail.
If there were no enemy obstacles, they might be able to escape from this predicament.
but…
How could Guan Yu give them this opportunity?
On the day when Wancheng was in a fierce battle, Guan Yu also led 10,000 naval troops and took a warship to attack Queyue City, vowing to block Cao Ren's only way to retreat.
This... can be regarded as a heavy blow to Cao Ren and others.
If the flood does not recede, they will all be annihilated by Guan Yu soon.
In order to survive, Cao Ren had to choose to fight Guan Yu again at an absolute disadvantage.
Although the total number of people participating in the battle was not as large as that of Wancheng, the brutality of this battle was no less brutal than the battle of Wancheng.
Especially when the soldiers of Cao Renjun bravely rushed towards Guan Yu's huge warship in a small boat, but were smashed to pieces by the warship, just to delay Guan Yu's time to block their retreat, this battle was doomed.
