Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu led the soldiers down the tower and soon joined Zhang Xian's soldiers.
Zhang Xiu scanned around and didn't see Lei Xu, so he hurriedly asked: "Where is Lei Xu?"
Zhang Xian replied: "My lord, when the general saw that the city gate had fallen, he asked Lei Xu to lead his troops back to the governor's house and take out the lord's family first to avoid being surrounded by the Han army."
Zhang Xian also used a long spear and his marksmanship was very good.
After Zhang Xiu heard this, he looked at Zhang Xian approvingly.
Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect.
After the city gate was breached, Zhang Xiu was also worried about his family, but Lei Xu led the troops to rescue the family members of the county governor's house, which made Zhang Xiu relieved. Together with Zhang Ren, he led the soldiers to fight and retreat, and kept going.
The city retreated. The defenders in the city also gathered together and twisted into a rope.
Zhang Fei led his soldiers to pursue him, but still could not wipe out the soldiers led by Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu.
At the city gate, Liu Bei led his army to fight in. After entering the city, Liu Bei did not continue to fight into the city. Instead, he reined in his horse and stopped at the city gate, shouting: "Where is Mi Zhu?"
"The end is here!"
Mi Zhu immediately stood up, cupped his fists and shouted.
Liu Bei ordered: "You and Mi Fang, together, immediately organize the soldiers in the army to transport grain, grass and other ordnance into the city. The speed must be fast and it must be completed within half an hour."
"promise!"
Mi Zhu shouted loudly and agreed immediately.
However, a trace of regret flashed across Mi Fang's face.
Although he and Mi Zhu came from merchant families, Mi Fang practiced martial arts all year round, and her martial arts skills were not bad, and she was also a good fighter on the battlefield. However, he was left by Liu Bei to take charge of logistics, which made Mi Fang feel very disappointed. Their brothers gave their best to each other.
Food, money and the family's private soldiers were all used to support Liu Bei, but what they got in exchange was management of logistics, which made Mi Fang feel resentful.
It's just that the younger sister Mi Huan is Liu Bei's wife, so the two of them endure their unhappiness.
Mi Zhu worked conscientiously, but Mi Fang wanted to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds.
However, it seems that because of Mi Huan, Liu Bei believed that Mi Zhu and Mi Fang were relatives and unfit to hold important official positions and hold great power. Therefore, the two brothers seemed to be favored by Liu Bei, but they were far less prosperous than outsiders imagined.
Mi Zhu took Mi Fang and immediately executed the order.
All grain, grass, baggage, etc. had to be transported into the city, and Mi Zhu had to handle them carefully.
Liu Bei didn't pay attention to Mi Fang's expression. All he was thinking about was how to defeat Wang Can. So he changed his mind and ordered: "Gongtai, ask the lieutenant general to organize soldiers and enter the city as soon as possible."
"promise!"
Chen Gong agreed, and then ordered the lieutenant general to bring the soldiers from the rear army into the city. After arranging everything, Chen Gong asked: "My lord, Ma Chao still led 6,000 soldiers to resist the vanguard of the Shu army. How could they?"
manage?"
Liu Bei's eyes were cold and he said in a deep voice: "Let Ma Chao hold back the Shu army, and we will first close the city gates to eliminate internal troubles."
Chen Gong nodded and did not object.
In about half an hour, all the grain, grass and baggage of the Han army were transported into the city. At the same time, all the soldiers led by Liu Bei also entered the city. At this time, Chen Gong's expression was very heavy, because he saw many soldiers rushing into the city with crazy laughter.
, and yelled that he wanted to steal women. Such words made Chen Gong unbearable.
Liu Bei's expression was serious, his command was determined, and he shouted: "Close the door!"
"Clang!"
The thick and heavy door was immediately closed, and Chen Gong's eyes were slightly closed.
Liu Bei ordered some soldiers to guard the city gate, and then ordered some soldiers to follow Zhang Fei to kill Zhang Xiu and others. Liu Bei led the soldiers to the top of the city tower.
On the tower of Wancheng, corpses piled up in mountains, and blood flowed into rivers, staining the ground of the tower red.
Liu Bei and Chen Gong stood on the tower and said proudly: "Gongtai, we finally captured Wancheng. Once the remnants in the city are wiped out, if we hold on to Wancheng, we can wait for reinforcements to attack Wang Can." After a pause.
After a pause, Liu Bei asked: "Gongtai, how are you doing in sending people back to Runan to recruit soldiers?"
Chen Gong bowed slightly and said: "Reporting to my lord, I have already sent soldiers to Runan to recruit soldiers, and I have also sent soldiers to Jingzhou to try to get Cai Hao to lead troops to kill again."
"good!"
Liu Bei praised him with an expression of approval on his face.
…
Outside the city, Ma Chao and Ma Xiu led an army to resist the incoming Shu army.
When Liu Bei led his army into Wancheng, Ma Chao and Ma Xiu were unable to enter the city and had to block the Shu army. Once the Shu army entered the city, the situation would immediately change.
In order to take revenge, Ma Chao and Ma Xiu also tried their best to resist the incoming Shu army.
While Matthew was fighting, he suddenly found that the city gate was closed.
He felt a thump in his heart, feeling that the situation was not good.
Ma Xiu didn't care to lead his soldiers to hold Huang Xu back. He quickly rode his horse to Ma Chao and said loudly: "Brother, Liu Bei asked his soldiers to close the gate of Wancheng. We are still resisting the Shu army and have no time to withdraw."
The city. If Wang Can leads a large army to attack, Liu Bei will be even less likely to open the city gate and let us enter the city. We may be left outside."
While resisting the Shu army, Ma Chao said: "Third brother, you ride to the city gate and ask Liu Bei to open the city gate."
Ma Xiu looked at Ma Chao in confusion, and then heard Ma Chao say: "Go quickly and test Liu Bei."
"okay!"
Ma Xiu used the cover of the Han soldiers to quickly rush into the Han army and ran towards the rear of the military formation. When he retreated, he did not encounter any obstruction and easily withdrew from the military formation.
The war horses galloped, and Matthew came to the foot of the tower.
He looked up at Liu Bei and shouted: "King of Han, open the city gate quickly and we will lead our troops into the city."
Liu Bei put his hands on the city wall, showed an unhappy expression, and shouted: "Ma Xiu, you and Ma Chao seize the time to destroy the Shu army outside the city, lest they follow into the city. After you destroy the Shu army outside the city, I will
Open the city gate immediately." Liu Bei did not refuse Ma Xiu directly, but asked Ma Xiu and Ma Chao to kill Lu Meng and others before opening the city gate.
This condition is simply as difficult as reaching the sky.
At that moment, Ma Xiu shouted again: "King Han, there are too many Shu troops and they cannot be destroyed!"
Liu Bei looked cold and stern, and shouted loudly: "I have already captured Wancheng, but you can't even destroy thousands of Shu troops? Go quickly, I am waiting in the city to help you wash away the dust."
When Ma Xiu heard Liu Bei's excuses, his heart suddenly sank.
At this time, Matthew would be a fool if he didn't understand.
Ma Xiu rode back to the military formation, ran to Ma Chao's side and said, "Brother, Liu Bei abandoned us outside the city and wants us to hold back the Shu army for him. What should we do?"
Ma Chao looked cold and said: "Liu Bei is unkind. You can't blame us for being unjust. Let our people gather together!"
"Yes, I'll go right away!"
Ma Xiu immediately rode away and gathered dozens of soldiers brought by Ma Chao.
The Shu army and the Han army have been fighting until now, but none of the soldiers brought by Ma Chao were injured, because they were all waving flags and shouting behind the Han army and did not go into battle, and Ma Yunlu was also among them. Ma Xiu sent Ma Yunlu and dozens of soldiers
Gather them together, and then lead the people to run to Ma Chao's side.
After Ma Chao saw everyone gathered, he left the Han army behind and hid among the Han army with dozens of soldiers.
After Ma Chao and his party avoided the Shu army, he immediately opened his voice and shouted: "Brothers, Liu Bei has abandoned us. He will not open the city gate again after he closes it. Let's all run for our lives!"
After saying that, Ma Chao took Ma Xiu and others and fled.
Ma Chao and others escaped, immediately causing a chain reaction.
Especially when the Han soldiers heard Ma Chao say that they could not enter Wancheng, their thoughts of fighting suddenly disappeared. The situation on the battlefield immediately collapsed, and no soldiers were willing to continue to resist.
Han soldiers fled in all directions, while Ma Chao and others took advantage of the chaos to escape.
Lu Meng, Huang Xu and Dian Wei relaxed and rushed forward quickly.
Dian Wei was about to lead his soldiers to chase Ma Chao and others, but he heard Lü Meng shout loudly: "Uncle Dian, Ma Chao is just a lost dog, don't worry about him. Let's deal with the Han army outside the city first, and then prepare to attack the city."
When Dian Wei heard this, he immediately changed his defense line and began to destroy the Han army.
On the city tower, Liu Bei saw Ma Chao escaping, and his army collapsed in an instant, and he was so angry that he cursed.
However, if Liu Bei is unkind, how can we blame Ma Chao for being unjust?
