After severely scolding the South Gate garrison, it was already late at night when I returned to the Prefect's Mansion.
Liu Bei lay on the battle map without feeling sleepy, and continued to assess the situation until dawn.
If nothing unexpected happens, Surabaya City can definitely hold on for more than four months.
This judgment shows Liu Bei's self-confidence.
If Lin Feng used the strength of the two states to attack with all his strength, Liu Bei would not dare to resist lightly no matter how conceited he was. He would even lead his army to retreat to the direction of Xiapi long ago, not daring to show off his strength.
At this time, most of the Jizhou army was fighting in full swing with Gongsun Zan in Youzhou, and the remaining troops did not dare to use it at will. They had to be placed on the front line bordering the Chenliu Group for defense.
Only part of the Qingzhou Army invaded Liu Bei's territory, even the three most elite battalions under Lin Feng. Although Liu Bei did not dare to claim victory, he still had the confidence to hold on for a long time.
After standing up and stretching, Liu Bei planned to go around the city to inspect the defenses and rest after lunch.
He stepped out of the room and turned to look out at the eastern sky.
A hint of fish belly white appears on the horizon, and the courtyard gradually becomes brighter. Although the sun has not yet risen, it still makes people feel a little warm.
Liu Bei casually made a few chest-expanding movements, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
As long as the sun still rises from the east, there is still hope for everything, right?
There were bursts of noise from the direction of Xicheng. Liu Bei frowned slightly and said displeasedly: "Go and ask what happened?"
Before he could send his men, a messenger came over and reported: "The Qingzhou Army is moving to the west of the city and seems to be preparing to attack the city."
"Idiot, even if the Qingzhou Army wants to attack Surabaya City, it won't be today. They just arrived at the city yesterday, and they don't even have the siege equipment ready. How can they attack the city?"
After Liu Bei scolded the ordering soldiers, he found that his right eyelid kept beating.
Jump right eye jump Choi disaster.
Unable to calm down at this moment, Liu Bei decided to rush to Xicheng as soon as possible to take a look at the situation.
Without even bothering to eat breakfast, Liu Bei ordered the five hundred white-eared soldiers he had with him, got on his horse, and galloped along the main street toward the west of the city.
While rushing on the road, bursts of killing sounds gradually came from the west direction of the city.
Liu Bei, who was experienced on the battlefield, understood that the Qingzhou Army had really begun to attack the city.
This is really unscientific. Unless the Qingzhou Army is prepared to lay waste to Sishui City with human lives, they should not launch a siege so recklessly.
While thinking deeply, he ordered the Bai'er soldiers to speed up. He wanted to see with his own eyes whether the Qingzhou army outside the city was attacking by force or feinting.
Turning onto Chengxi Street, you could already see the city gate tower with fluttering flags. Suddenly, an alarming shout of death erupted from the west direction of the city.
The sudden cry of death startled Liu Bei. Before he could rein in his mount and ask what happened, the screams carried by the wind already told him the correct answer.
"Run quickly, the city is broken, the Qingzhou Army is coming!"
"withstand
, hold on to me!"
"Don't be afraid, your reinforcements will be here soon!"
"Put down your weapons and kneel down without killing!"
"Anyone who refuses to listen and still holds a weapon will be killed!"
Liu Bei reined in his horse, and the white-eared soldiers took advantage of the situation to form a defensive formation around him.
"Send two people over to ask what happened in the west of the city?"
From the sounds coming, Liu Bei judged that the west side of the city had most likely been breached, but he still didn't know how many Qingzhou troops had entered the city.
Two white-eared elite soldiers clasped their fists and accepted the promise. Before they could move, a rout of troops came running from the west direction of the city.
Seeing this, Liu Bei urged his horse forward and shouted loudly: "Hold on, who will tell me what happened in the west city direction?"
A junior officer in the defeated army recognized Liu Bei, fell to his knees with a thump, knocked his knees as his feet, and walked up to Liu Bei's horse step by step.
"Your Majesty, Lord Qi, we lost so unjustly, and our brothers died so unjustly!"
"What happened?"
"Just after daybreak, there was a sudden movement of the Qingzhou Army outside the city. The two traitors Liu Pi and Gongdu sent all the people from our Lujun Army to climb the city wall and arranged for their own families to guard the city gate. At that time, we thought that the two traitors Liu Pi and Gong were
It was just to preserve the strength of our own legion. Although I felt uncomfortable, no one spoke out against it."
"But when the Qingzhou Army lined up and approached the city wall, many commanders on the city wall realized something was wrong."
"The Qingzhou Army's cavalry is in front and the infantry is behind. It doesn't look like they want to attack the city, but it looks like they want to enter the city directly."
"Before we could react, the two thieves Liu and Gong opened the city gate, and the Qingzhou Army rushed into the city without encountering any obstruction."
"At this time, our army had basically been dispersed near the west gate of the city. The brothers failed to organize effective resistance, so they were divided and dispersed by the thieves and defeated each one."
"Your Majesty, you must avenge your brothers!!"
Liu Pi!
Gongdu!
Liu Bei clenched his teeth, and the tendons on his face pulsated.
Good on you, Mi Zhu!
I trust your Mi family so much that I will not hesitate to fight against the Xuzhou Chen family for your Mi family.
When you two brothers came to Surabaya, I undressed you and gave you food.
Why, is this how your Mi family repays me?
I never expected that Mi Zhu, a guy like you with thick eyebrows and big eyes, was actually an internal agent of the Qingzhou Army.
Thinking of this, Liu Bei felt a chill in his heart.
Mad Dog Lin is also very calculating.
When did he become the Mi family brother who instigated rebellion?
Thinking that Lin Feng might have planted the two Mi brothers in Xuzhou before Liu Bei arrived in Xuzhou, Liu Bei's body trembled involuntarily.
Ordinary people say that one step counts three steps. For Lin Feng, it is no longer a matter of counting five or ten steps. It is almost equivalent to counting in advance.
A hundred steps, okay?
After listening to Xiao Xiao's story, Liu Bei knew that Xicheng was no longer accessible.
If he had deployed heavy troops in the west of the city in advance, he would still have a chance to regain control of the west gate from the Qingzhou Army.
Now everything is done in a hurry. By the time Liu Bei gathers his troops, the Qingzhou Army will have all entered the city and completely controlled the west of the city.
If Liu Bei had the confidence to defeat the Qingzhou Army in the field, he would not retreat back to the city and rely on high walls to stop the enemy.
Now that the western part of the city has been lost, the fall of Surabaya City is only a matter of time, and Liu Bei needs to prepare his own retreat.
He turned his horse and led the white-eared elite soldiers towards the prefect's mansion. Liu Bei needed to return to his mansion to pack up important materials and documents, so he took the time to escape to Xiapi.
If you take a step slower, you may not be able to walk even if you want to.
On the streets of Surabaya City, Liu Bei led his troops to fight like flying horses, not caring whether it would affect the pedestrians and vehicles on the road.
Most people in the city still don't know about the Qingzhou Army's entry into the city. After all, Liu Pigong is on the west side of the city, and most of the Lu County Army have not yet reacted. They were either killed or captured, and basically did not escape.
How many people came out.
Unfortunately, the largest group of defeated troops who had escaped now was still closely following Liu Bei, with no chance to inform others.
Seeing the Governor's Mansion in sight, Liu Bei suddenly narrowed his eyes and involuntarily reined in his horse. He also quietly reached out to the winning hook of the bird's wing ring with both hands and grasped the hilts of the male and female swords.
At the gate of the prefect's mansion, Mi Zhu was leading nearly a hundred private soldiers, looking at Liu Bei from a distance and smiling.
Mi Zhu didn't know anything about Liu Pi's dedication of the capital of Gong. He was not experienced enough in commanding troops and could not tell the war situation in the west of the city from the shouts of killing.
He came to the Prefect's Mansion at this time just to discuss the matter of defending the city with Liu Bei.
It happened that as soon as I arrived in front of the mansion, I saw Liu Bei coming on horseback from a distance, so I naturally greeted Liu Bei with a smile on his face.
Little did he know that the smile on Mi Zhu's face was filled with sarcasm in Liu Bei's eyes.
When did Liu Daer'er suffer from such insults?
At that moment, Liu Bei's eyes became bloodshot and turned red.
The male and female swords were raised high above their heads: "All my sons, follow me to kill the enemy!"
After saying that, Liu Bei took the lead and came straight to Mi Zhu like a whirlwind.
Poor Mi Zhu hadn't figured out what was going on when she saw Liu Bei rushing forward with a ferocious look on his face.
Mi Zhu, who didn't know where the trouble came from, had no time to react. He just hugged the horse's neck with both hands, buried his head deep in his arms, and shouted: "My life is at stake!"
Liu Bei's eyes were filled with blood and his anger was rising. He wanted to cut the entire Mi family into pieces. Now that Mi Zhu was right in front of him, he naturally refused to let go of the culprit.
Getting closer and closer to Mi Zhu, Liu Bei raised his male and female swords high.
At this critical moment, a sharp shout erupted not far away: "Hey, Liu Daer'er doesn't want to be so arrogant. Lin Feng is here, how can I allow you to wreak havoc again?"
