Chapter 737 The real battle
Everyone present was moved when they heard this. Zhuge Liang suddenly felt a little strange in the atmosphere and couldn't help but feel strange.
Liu Bei smiled slightly and asked again: "I wonder how many troops we are going to send to reinforce?" Zhuge Liang said: "I think the enemy will not send too many troops to attack Changling, so this is a fighter opportunity for our army. What the subordinates mean is that it is better to send the main force guarding Chang'an to Changling and strive to defeat Zhao Yun in one step with the Changling defenders inside and outside!..."
Zhang Fei could no longer bear it, so he jumped out and pointed at Zhuge Liang and shouted sternly: "Good you, Zhuge Villageman! He is so shameless! My brother has a great kindness to you. It would be fine if you didn't repay you, but he actually colluded with Lu Bu to try to kill my brother to take me Chang'an! It's a real crime to die!"
Zhuge Liang was only inexplicably asked in confusion: "Why did Yide say this?" Zhang Fei felt that Zhuge Liang was still pretending to be garlic, and was furious. He pulled out his sword and wanted to kill Zhuge Liang, but was stopped by Liu Bei. Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and said with great pain: "Kong Ming! I originally thought you and I were loyal to each other to support the Han Dynasty! But I didn't expect that you, you were actually a traitor who forgot about profit and betrayal! It really disappointed me!" Zhuge Liang was completely confused and had no idea what was going on, and asked anxiously: "What are you saying? What kind of tyrannical things did I, Zhuge Liang?"
Liu Bei sighed and murmured to himself: "When the letter was placed in front of me, I should have made a quick decision, but I thought Kong Ming would not let me down! Finally, it caused a disaster, causing Gan Ting to fall!..." This was the first time Zhuge Liang heard this, and was shocked and couldn't help asking, "Is Gan Ting missing? When did this happen?" Zhang Fei was furious and cursed: "You are still pretending! Are we all fools?"
Liu Bei stopped Zhang Fei and said to Zhuge Liang: "Even if such a serious incident occurred in Ganting's fall, even if there is so much evidence that you betrayed me! But I still choose to believe you and want to give you a last chance! But you finally disappointed me!"
Zhuge Liang said anxiously: "What's going on with lord?"
Liu Bei laughed mockingly, nodded, and said, "Since that's the case, I'll make it clear. Actually, I've already obtained information and learned that the Qin army planned to attack Changling and set up an ambush near the Weihe River floating bridge. You will take the opportunity to instigate me to send heavy troops to support Changling. At that time, the ambushing Qin army can annihilate our reinforcements in one fell swoop, and then turn around to seize Chang'an in one fell swoop! What a cruel plan!"
Zhuge Liang was shocked and hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Lord, we have all been trapped! This is, this is the enemy's counter-split plan! Lord, don't fall into the trap!"
Liu Bei sighed, glanced at Zhuge Liang, and said coldly: "It's time for the matter, you still have to make excuses!" "Lord!..." Liu Bei didn't want to listen to Zhuge Liang and waved his hand and shouted: "Immediately take Zhuge Liang and Ma Su and their confidants to the prison and take care of them closely!" Liu Feng immediately summoned his personal soldiers and ordered them to take Zhuge Liang and Ma Su down. The traitor storm finally came to an end.
Zhang Fei couldn't help asking, "Brother, why didn't you kill them immediately?" Liu Bei said, "It's time for a great war, and it's really ominous to slaughter his subordinates!" Zhang Fei felt a little funny and said, "Brother, he actually believed in these things!" In fact, Liu Bei was not afraid of ominousness. He had his own plans. He felt that Zhuge Liang's identity was extraordinary. He was the younger brother of Lu Bu's two wives. Maybe he could use this to threaten Lu Bu at critical moments. Of course, what he did not look like a hero or a benevolent master cannot be said no matter what.
Mi Fang clasped her fists and said, "Lord, for the military advisor, no, should you adjust Zhuge Liang's previous arrangement?" Liu Bei nodded and said, "It should be like this!"
As night fell, there was a sound of pleading in Ailang's tent. Several officers dressed in Liu Bei's military armor knelt in front of Ailang and cried: "King of Qin, please save our sir! He was imprisoned by Liu Bei!" Ailang asked in detail about the situation and finally asked: "How did you escape?" An officer said: "Our team happened to be on duty on the city wall. I heard that the sir and the others were arrested, and I was worried about being implicated, so I came down from the city wall to join the lord of Qin!" Ailang nodded and smiled: "Don't worry when you come to me, I will protect you!" Several officers thanked him quickly. Then Ailang asked a personal officer to take them down and settle them down. The personal officer replied with a promise and took the escaped officer out of the tent.
Ailang smiled and said to Guo Jia, "Fengxiao, your plan is really amazing! Liu Bei's treacherous guy actually fell into the trap!" Guo Jia smiled and said, "It is because Liu Bei is treacherous and suspicious that he fell into the trap. If he changed his lord, his plan would be useless!" Ailang laughed and said, "I feel comfortable listening to this!" Then he frowned slightly and asked, "Fengxiao, could this be the other party put a trick on us?" Guo Jia thought for a while, clasped his fists and said, "My wise, I can't rule out this possibility!" Then he laughed and said, "But there is no need to worry about this! We just need to act according to the plan!" Ailang nodded and smiled and said, "Okay! Pass it down immediately, the army is ready to attack Chang'an tomorrow! In addition, I will also send Zilong to attack Changling!"
Early the next morning, with the rumbling of war drums, the Qin army set up military formations on three sides of the southeast, north and south of Chang'an City. The arrow towers were like forests, flags were surging, and the mighty power seemed completely different than the previous few days! And Liu Bei's army was ready to fight and was ready to fight!
Liu Bei stood on the city gate tower and looked at the Qin army formation outside the city with murderous aura, and couldn't help frowning. Mi Fang, who was beside him, couldn't help but say, "It must be that Lu Bu knew that the traitor was arrested, so he was ready to launch a real strong attack!" Liu Bei frowned and shouted, "If you pass the order, all military affairs must stick to the city and be loyal to the great man!" Mi Fang held his fists and ran down quickly.
After a while, the sound of Qin army drums roared. Countless heavy catapults were pushed straight towards the city wall. After a while, they entered the range of Liu Bei's army's catapults, and the catapults were mounted on the top of the city to fire together. Countless stones flew into the sky, and raindrops flew towards the Qin army pushing the catapults! There was a loud bang, and the earth and rocks were flying, and the earth seemed to be boiling! Suddenly, a catapult was hit by a huge rock and suddenly split into pieces. The Qin army officers and soldiers around were also shocked by the huge force of the huge rock and flew backwards!
The Qin army officers and soldiers stared at the opponent's throwing rocks and bombarded dozens of steps, and then stopped. With the roars, the Qin army's throwing cars also began to show their power and bombarded the head of the opponent's throwing rocks! The huge rocks hit the head of the city, and the flesh and blood flew across the city wall, and the sky and the earth moved! The catapults on the head of the city quickly reloaded and fired again! The huge rocks fired by both sides flew interlaced in the air, and the scene was spectacular. Suddenly, with a loud bang, two huge rocks flying in the air collided together!
At the same time, the Qin army's attacking troops shouted, hugging various siege equipment like a tide. On the city wall, Liu Bei's crossbowmen began to shoot, while the Qin army covered the army with wooden raft shield curtains. The dense arrows hit the wooden raft shield curtains in waves, making loud noises like heavy rain hitting banana leaves!
In a short while, the Qin army was approaching under the city wall. At this moment, the shield curtain suddenly retreated, and countless crossbowmen who had been ready to go suddenly emitted a dense rain of arrows on the city head! Liu Bei's officers and soldiers who were caught off guard on the city head were immediately knocked down! At the same time, the baffle in front of the arrow tower that had approached the city wall was suddenly put down, and the Qin crossbowmen who were in the arrow tower were sniping from a high place to snipe Liu Bei's army. The arrows were as chaotic as locusts, and Liu Bei's officers and soldiers were shot to the ground one after another!
Liu Bei opened his eyes wide and pointed at the arrow tower and shouted, "Concentrate the crossbow and shoot the arrow tower!" Liu Bei's crossbowmen fired arrows at the Qin crossbowmen in the arrow tower. For a moment, the densely flying arrows seemed to wrap around the Qin army's arrow tower. The Qin crossbowmen were shot and fell from the arrow tower, like raindrops!
A number of ladders had already rushed to the city wall and they were put on the top of the city. The Qin army warriors bit their long swords and began to climb the city wall. The officers and soldiers of Liu Bei tried their best to lift huge wooden wooden pieces and rolled down the wall. The huge roar like a mountain torrent immediately sounded. The Qin army warriors who were climbing the city wall from the cloud ladder were knocked down by the rolling stone wooden pieces, and a tragic scene of flesh and blood flying everywhere!
Zhuge Liang heard the sound of a war outside in the dungeon, and couldn't help but show a worried expression on his face, muttering to himself: "Listen to this movement, the Qin army's offensive is extremely fierce!..." Ma Su next to him said with some gloating: "What do they do? Treat the gentleman as a villain, let the good people they think of to save them!" Zhuge Liang couldn't help but sigh, and his expression seemed extremely lonely. At this moment, the sound of a war outside became even more violent and shocking. Ma Su couldn't help but say: "It seems that the Qin army has attacked the city!"
Ma Su's guess was right. The Qin army's siege troops had already rushed to the top of the city at several places. The officers and soldiers of both sides launched bloody battles on the top of the city! The Qin army officers and soldiers rushed like tigers to kill before they sacrificed their lives. They killed Liu Bei's corpses and blood! The Liu Bei army officers and soldiers fought to the death, one after another, desperately blocking the Qin army's fierce attack! On the top of the city, they could see flesh and blood flying across the city, and the red-eyed officers and soldiers holding their opponents and falling from the city! Crazy roars and shrill screams, and the sword lights flying all over the sky raised blood rain!
Bang! Bang! Bang!…The huge and heavy impact sounded loudly. It was the Qin army’s heavy city-rushing car that was ramming the city gate!
...
Before we knew it, the sun had set westward, and the sky and the earth under dusk seemed to be stained with blood! The corpses were piled up above and below the city, and the air was filled with disgusting blood! The Qin army had stopped attacking, and a fierce offensive and defensive battle was temporarily concluded! There were waves of wailing on the city, which were the wounded Liu Bei soldiers screaming. The exhausted Liu Bei soldiers sat in the blood of the corpse, panting, exhausted, physically and mentally! Today's bloody battle far exceeded the previous intensity and the expectations of Liu Bei soldiers, making them feel a terrible pressure of landslides collapse, tsunami, sky and earth collapse!
Although Zhuge Liang was arrested, Liu Bei's basic strategy did not change. He still stood firm in the city and waited for the crisis in Luoyang when Lu Bu had to retreat to return to Luoyang. However, today's bloody battle shook Liu Bei's confidence in this strategy. He was not sure whether he could stick to the time when Lu Bu returned to Luoyang. However, this thought flashed through Liu Bei's heart. In his opinion, he had no way out and had to persevere to the end. Chang'an must be in the hands of Lu Bu!
