Chapter 62: Liu Biao's Attack
In the battle of Linyuan, Huang Zhong retreated, and Wu Shun returned to the rescue in time. After the war, more than 30,000 defeated troops were captured.
After the battle, Linyuan was seriously damaged and countless houses in the city collapsed. The people spontaneously helped defend the city, which was also damaged.
Wu Shun ordered the reward of the three armies and the people guarding the city! He ordered Wenqian to preside over the restoration and reinforcement of Linyuan City, and Yang Youcai was responsible for handling the aftermath of the war.
In this battle, the soldiers guarding the city suffered heavy casualties, and more than 5,000 troops remained in Dongfangqiang's troops. But in the end, they won. After the reorganization, the number of Wuling Army increased instead of decreasing! The strength was even better than before.
On this day, Wu Shun was handling the government affairs of Wuling in the study. Qu A came in to report: "Miss Tian brought Wuxi barbarians outside the city and said she wanted to see you."
"Oh, see me? Do you know what she is saying about leading troops to come?" Wu Shun asked.
"The last general asked, and Miss Tian said that she heard that Lin Yuan was attacked, so she specially led her troops to rescue the siege." Qu A replied.
Tian Qian'er was helpful, and although she came a little slower, she had to accept her affection, Wu Shun said intimately. So she asked Qu A to invite Tian Qian'er into the city to talk.
"Big bad guy! I'm bringing troops to save you! Why do you thank me?"
Before the person arrived, he heard Tian Qian'er's proud voice first. It seemed that Huang Zhong was defeated by her.
"Why are you laughing? Tell me how to thank me."
Seeing Wu Shun staring at her and smiling, Tian Qian'er couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Auntie couldn't weaken her momentum, Tian Qian'er thought.
"Thank you for this time! Although you came a little slower!" Wu Shun teased.
"What do you mean? Don't you know, is the road difficult to walk? I have been rushing from Wuxi to Linyuan, just because I'm afraid that your Linyuan City will not be able to defend!"
Seeing Wu Shun teasing her, Tian Qian'er was a little unhappy. She was determined to rescue her. The Wuxi barbarians even traveled day and night. Although they didn't catch up with the war, was Wu Shun's expression?
"How many barbarian troops have you brought this time?"
"There are five thousand!"
"Okay, stay here first, go and talk to Xiaobai about the past!"
Wu Shun sent Tian Qian'er to find Xiaobai. They were close friends and had disappeared for a long time. It was also good to go and talk about the past and make contact with each other.
After handling official duties, Wu Shun went to the city to inspect. The battle had passed, and Linyuan City returned to normal life, and the prosperity remained.
Wu Shun took Qu A around the city, and suddenly a team of soldiers rushed over. The leading team leader reported to Wu Shun: "Lord, Sun Ce, the son of Wu Chenghou, is asking for a meeting in the mansion!"
Sun Ce was not staying in Changsha, so what was the so-called thing when he ran to Wuling? Wu Shun didn't understand why, so he went back home, trying to ask for the reason.
"uncle……"
Seeing Wu Shun return, Sun Ce hurriedly bowed.
"Why is Bo Fu like this?"
Seeing Sun Ce wearing filial piety clothes, Wu Shun couldn't help asking. Could it be that Sun Jian was dead? Didn't he go to save him? How could he die?
"Short after my uncle returned, Liu Biao sent a large army to attack Changsha. My father died in battle. Changsha County was now under Liu Biao's hands! Please ask my uncle to borrow troops to help me avenge this great revenge!"
Sun Ce said sadly, but his revenge is as hard as iron!
"I didn't expect Brother Wentai to suffer a great disaster, but why didn't he notify me?"
Wu Shun was also inexplicably sad and said in tears. Seeing this, Sun Ce, Cheng Pu and others couldn't help but think of Sun Jian who died in battle. They all had tears in their eyes and were extremely heartbroken.
"Just because my father also knew that Lin Yuan had a war, he didn't dare to distract his uncle!"
"Brother Wentai, brother, I'm sorry to you. Don't worry, I will definitely help Bofu, take back Changsha, and avenge you!" Wu Shun wiped his tears and said confidently.
Sun Ce is young and is very fooling, but there are still three veterans who follow him. Wu Shun cannot accept Sun Ce as a general. What's more, Sun Ce has a great hatred with Liu Biao and helps Sun Ce, which can cause trouble for Liu Biao, and Wuling County has a chance to breathe.
After Liu Biao conquered Changsha County, Lingling County gave up resistance and joined Liu Biao's wishes. Only Wuling's family was left in Jingzhou. At this time, Wu Shun was already a thorn in Liu Biao's side, and he wanted to pull it out quickly!
After appeased Sun Ce and his party and allowed him to recruit two thousand soldiers in Wuling, Wu Shun gathered all the generals to discuss military affairs. Just because he received news from the Black Guard, Liu Biao wanted to send troops to attack Wuling, thus unifying the entire Jingzhou!
"Who said that Liu Biao is a guardian dog? I want to kill him! Isn't this ambitious?
The form is not good, Lin Yuan City is built on the Yuan River, and there is no danger to defend! Liu Biao attacks with all his strength, but Wu Shun's troops cannot stop him! What's more, Liu Biao has a naval army, but he can still come from the Yuan River, and Wuling County has no naval army, which is very passive!
"Everyone, Liu Biao wants to attack our Wuling County, how should we deal with it?" Wu Shun asked.
"Lord, this battle is extremely unfavorable to our army! The enemy soldiers are several times more numerous than me. We only need to besiege Linyuan City, and our army will be defeated without fighting! The last general only saw him, and he could only give up Linyuan City, retreat into the boundary of Chenyang, and defend with danger! Our army has a chance of victory!" Dongfang Qiang replied.
"Is there no complete solution to give up?"
Wu Shun asked again, Wu Shun was unwilling to accept that the city that had finally developed had to be handed over to others. Naturally, the mood would not be good. However, Linyuan City is surrounded by plains and is open, but it is not good for defense.
"Okay, that's all!" Seeing that all the generals didn't say anything, Wu Shun had to follow Dongfang Qiang's advice and evacuate Linyuan.
When fighting with Liu Biao's army, you can fight, but you can't fight for a long time. You can't afford to consume troops or food or grass. Liu Biao lives in Jingzhou, with countless soldiers and piles of food and grass, and he has the help of aristocratic families and suggestions! No matter how you look at it, Wu Shun has no chance of winning!
Unexpectedly, the bamboo basket was useless and had no corresponding strength, and even the territory could not be maintained! Wu Shun understood that there was a big gap between him and the princes. The princes each had their own advantages. Wu Shun had neither a deep background nor a broad connection, and had only a innocent heart. However, this was challenging.
At the official residence of Liu Biao in Xiangyang, all the civil and military officials were present. Liu Biao decided to send troops to collect Wuling County, in the name of the governor of other states! Wuling County has not been taken back yet, and the name of this governor of this state is always flawed! Only by killing Wu Shun and taking back Wuling County can Liu Biao’s name as the governor of the state is legitimate!
"A different degree, can you have a clever plan to teach me this time of attacking Wuling?"
Liu Biao still believes in Kuai Yue the most. In the Battle of Changsha, Kuai Yue’s plan made an indelible contribution!
"Hahaha... Congratulations to the lord! My subordinates think that our army will win a great victory in this battle!"
Kuai Yue said firmly, as if victory was right in front of him, Linyuan City was at his fingertips!
"Oh, sir, please tell me in detail!"
After Kuai Yue said this, Liu Biao became interested!
"Linyuan City has no danger to defend, and it is adjacent to the Yuanshui River. General Cai Mao can lead the navy to attack from the Yuanshui River. By land, general Wenpeng can be sent to lead a hundred thousand troops to besiege Linyuan. In this way, he can win without fighting!"
