Zhuge Liang couldn't help but frown and murmured, "Can my dream come true!" Shaking his head, stalked over, and opened the door. When the two standing at the door saw Zhuge Liang, they immediately bowed and saluted. Then Ma Su said anxiously, "Sir, you really got it! The lord was ambushed by Lu Bu's army while crossing the water, and lost a lot!..."

Zhuge Liang's face changed drastically and he asked anxiously: "What's the situation? Where is the lord now?"

Ma Su said: "Mi Fang has escaped, and the subject matter has to be asked!" "Where is the person?" "It's in the hall!" Zhuge Liang immediately took no time to put on his coat and walked out of the bedroom and ran straight to the front hall. Ma Su followed closely behind.

After a while, the two entered the hall one by one. At this time, Mi Fang was standing there uneasyly when she suddenly saw Zhuge Liang coming and said to Zhuge Liang: "Military advisor! Save the lord quickly!..."

Zhuge Liang raised his right hand and comforted him, "General, don't panic. Let me first tell me what happened? How did you encounter an ambush?"

Mi Fang calmed down his thoughts and clasped his fists and said, "The lord's army was attacked when crossing the water supply land! Lu Bu's army suddenly came overwhelmed, and our army was caught off guard and was beaten up in chaos and suffered heavy losses! After a fierce battle, the lord led a part of the troops to retreat to a hilly hill east of Hefei to build a defense line to resist. Now Lu Bu's army is surrounded by heavy forces, and the lord is in danger!" Mi Fang originally didn't know the situation of Liu Bei's side, but on the way to escape, he met several cavalry officers and soldiers who fled from Hefei. They learned about the rough process of the battle in Hefei from them, so he could tell Zhuge Liang at this moment.

Zhuge Liang breathed a little relieved because his lord was still alive and some of his troops were still persevering, so things might still have room for improvement.

Ma Su couldn't help but curse: "This is all caused by Pang Tong! He was determined to compare his husband, so he put the army in a desperate situation!"

Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice: "Don't say this!" Then he asked Mi Fang: "How many troops does the Lu Bu army have? How many troops are there in the lord's hand? How much food and grass are there?" Mi Fang was stunned and said: "This, Lu Bu army is coming here overwhelmingly. I don't know how many people are! The lord's hand's force and food and supplies are really hard to know!" Zhuge Liang was not surprised by Mi Fang's answer. I guess the situation was very chaotic at that time. It would be great that Mi Fang could escape. How could he know the specific situation on the battlefield?

Ma Su said: "According to General Mi Fang's description, the army may suffer serious losses..."

Zhuge Liang frowned and shook his head and said, "The heavy losses of the troops are not the worst case. I am only worried that in such chaos, I am afraid that all the food, grass and supplies will be lost!..." Ma Su and Mi Fang couldn't help but look shocked when they heard this. Mi Fang hurriedly clasped their fists and said, "The military advisor must find a way to rescue the lord! If the lord has a few good and two bad things, we, we..."

Zhuge Liang raised his right hand and said, "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. At this moment, you should be more calm and calm..." He paused, "In the worst case, all the food is destroyed, so only the food carried by the officers and soldiers can last for about three days, but if you save food, you can last for five days. Now that the battle has passed, the lord and the others can still last for four days..." Zhuge Liang frowned with a very serious expression.

Ma Su couldn't help but say, "Even if we want to gather all the troops in Xichuan, it will take at least half a month. They still have to obey the orders of the gentleman! It's simply..." He wanted to say, 'This is simply impossible.' But it was not good to say this, so he held back when he spoke.

Mi Fang looked at Zhuge Liang with hope and said, "Military advisor,..."

Zhuge Liang frowned and paced back and forth, but he didn't say anything for a long time. The two of them looked at Zhuge Liang, not knowing what to say.

Zhuge Liang suddenly stopped. Seeing this, both of them were happy. Mi Fang asked hurriedly: "Do you already have a clever plan?" Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Even a god, there is no way to do this situation!" Mi Fang was disappointed when he heard this. Zhuge Liang suddenly showed a determined look and said firmly: "Even if it is impossible, I must do it. As a subordinate, how can I ignore the death of the lord?

!" Then he said to Ma Su: "Young Chang, immediately ordered Nanjun and Jiangnan counties to gather in Xiling immediately, waiting for my orders, and at the same time, he ordered the magistrates of each county to summon the local people to me as much as possible." Ma Su frowned, "Sir, I'm afraid that this will only sacrifice the lives of the soldiers and civilians in vain!" Zhuge Liang said sternly: "I have decided, go do it immediately!" Ma Su had no choice but to run away.

As soon as Ma Su left the hall, he met Zhuge Liang's two sisters and bowed to salute. Zhuge Mengxue glanced at the hall and asked, "It's right? Why is General Mi Fang here?" Zhuge Ruoxue sneered and said, "Look at Mi Fang in such a embarrassing manner, and Kong Ming and General Ma Su were solemn. If I expected it, it must be the lord who suffered a great defeat?" Ma Su looked at Zhuge Ruoxue with surprise, then clasped his fists and said, "I just received the news that the lord was defeated in Hefei and was in a critical situation." Although the two Zhuge sisters had expected it for a long time, they could not help but look at each other when they heard Ma Su's answer so precisely, and looked quite shocked.

Ma Su remembered something and whispered to the two women: "Two ladies, it is difficult for us to use our strength in the battle situation except for the lord himself who can break out! But the gentleman wants to gather the soldiers and civilians of Nanjun and Jiangnan counties to make a desperate bet! Alas! Isn't this the lives of hundreds of thousands of people to bet on the lord's fortunes and lives? This is really not a wise move. Please advise the lord." After saying that, he bowed and was about to go.

It has been three days since Liu Bei and 200,000 officers and soldiers were trapped. However, Lu Bu's army has always been stationed at the foot of the mountain on guard but does not attack directly. After three days, Liu Bei's army was unable to seek war and was in trouble, and his morale inevitably became very low.

In the big tent, Liu Bei was discussing the current situation with Pang Tong and Guan Yu. Guan Yu frowned and said, "Lu Bu's army did not come to attack. Obviously, he knew that we were not well-fed and wanted to trap us to death! Now his plan is to take the risk of breaking through!"

Liu Bei frowned and was undecided. It was not that he didn't know the current situation, but he was extremely afraid of the fighting power of the Lu Bu army. He was only worried that this attack would not only not break through the encirclement of the Lu Bu army, but would cause heavy losses to himself. He couldn't help but look at Pang Tong and asked, "Shi Yuan, what do you say?" Pang Tong frowned and said, "There is no good idea at the moment. Even if Kong Ming and the others received the news, it would take at least half a month to assemble the army. We can't hold on at that time at all, so we can only take the risk of breaking through! If we can fight a bloody road, the situation will turn around. After observing, the troops used by the Lu Bu army this time are not particularly large, about 200,000. They have to guard against Cao Cao, which is the largest force they can mobilize! With our 200,000 troops, the chance is still great. The key is that the soldiers can sacrifice their lives to fight! It depends on the lord!"

Liu Bei frowned and nodded, then said to Guan Yu, "Chang Yun, gather the troops immediately." Guan Yu clasped his fists and agreed, and then ran down.

After a while, 200,000 troops gathered and covered a large hillside. Everyone looked up at the mountain and looked at their lord Liu Bei.

Liu Bei stood on his sword in a armored cloak, glanced at the army that was still huge in front of him. The panic in his heart disappeared without a trace, and a sense of confidence surged out of his heart. He felt that he had such a large army in his hands, so why not be afraid of him Lu Bu?

Pang Tong, who was standing behind Liu Bei, couldn't help but admire this scene secretly. Guan Yu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. Perhaps he felt that the 200,000 soldiers who were fighting spirit were there, and it would be no difficult to repel the Lu Bu army in front of him and return to Jingzhou.

Seeing that the morale of his soldiers was aroused by him, Liu Bei was secretly happy and immediately said, "No need to delay, let's go down the mountain now and fight to the death with those beasts!" "Fight to the death! Fight to the death!..." The huge roar rushed to the sky with endless fighting spirit.
