Chapter 161: Crowded

Liu Yi and the soldiers of the two counties sent troops south and sent troops to the company. After Ling Ling ’s guard Liu Du got the news, he quickly recruited his son Liu Xian to discuss countermeasures.
In the four counties of Jingnan, Liu Yi had already acquired the land of Changsha and Wuling, and it only took two months to add up, which made Liu Du feel a little bit confused. I did n’t know if he could hold it. Discuss whether to surrender or continue to resist.
After all, Liu Bei ’s army has been crossing the river for more than two months. Even if the news is blocked, such a long time has been enough to let the news of the defeat of Chibi have passed. Even if Liu Yi repels, for Liu Du, the only thing waiting for him is It was the next fierce attack by Liu Bei Group.
It is not necessary to continue to fight, but if you surrender, the position of too defending may not be guaranteed, so Liu Du is very entangled.
"Father." Liu Xian looked at Liu Dudao after reading the letter from Han Xuan. "It seems to Yier that Liu Yi was able to capture Changsha so quickly because Han Xuan was not well prepared and his troops were scattered in various counties. Let Liu Yi break through all of them, but due to luck, then Liu Yi will cheat before he has the momentum of today. "
Liu Du nodded his head, and he felt the same way. If Han Xuan was ready at the beginning, Liu Yi was only two or three thousand soldiers, not to mention attacking Changsha, maybe he could go back alive.
Anyway, no matter what tricks, if you look at it afterwards, it is actually mediocre, but at the right time, you did the right thing. On the other hand, it will feel stupid as a loser. He is doing well, this is the general mentality of people, not to mention Liu Yi is unknown, and his background is not high. Liu Xian, who came from a family and noble family, looked down on Liu Yi in his heart, not only him, including Liu Du, to Liu Yi did not have much awe, but was more at a loss and at a loss about the current situation.
Seeing Liu Du nod, Liu Xian smiled and said, "Father, although Prime Minister Chibi failed, it was not Liu Bei who defeated Prime Minister. Even if we wanted to surrender, I should surrender to Jiangdong. What should I do with Liu Bei? One letter from Guiyang Taishou Zhao Fan, surrender to Jiangdong, Jiangdong is invited to receive the land of the two counties. "
Liu Du said with a bitter smile: "My son's words are deeply in my heart, but now that Liu Yi is handsome and the army army soldiers, Jiang Dong promised, and it is difficult to rescue in time."
Where are the soldiers and horses of Jiangdong? do not know.
Sending a messenger, Jiang Dong promised, to prepare soldiers, horses, food and grass for assistance. It will take a month or two at the earliest. Can he stop it?
"My father is too high to see Liu Yi." Liu Xian heard, disdainful: "According to the sentinel, Liu Yi's soldiers and horses are only six or seven thousand people. Although I have only four thousand soldiers and horses in Lingling, they are everywhere. The clan clan is always based on his father ’s head. In addition, the Shanyue tribe is also good with his father. As long as the father sends someone to inform, he can gather tens of thousands of soldiers at any time. Why fear Liu Yi? "
Liu Du is different from Jin Xuan. He has a good relationship with the local giants and even Shanyue. His own power is not too strong, but in Lingling, the appeal is very strong. In this regard, Liu Du is in The hidden strength of the four counties in Jingnan is one of the strongest. Liu Xian said this is not without confidence.
Seeing that Liu Du was still hesitant, Liu Xian continued: "What's more, the person Liu Bei is relying on, but Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's courage, but Lingling also has General Xing Daorong, who has improper courage, that is, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are close. It is not necessarily an adversary. Besides, Liu Yi and Guan Ping will not be around him. What is the fear of his father? "
It can only be said that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are too famous. Liu Feng and Guan Ping are actually good military generals, but standing next to these two people, they look a bit eclipsed under the aura of the two.
After his son's persuasion, Liu Du finally decided to fight against the soldiers. Of course, he still had to pay attention to the rules of the law. First of all, he wrote a letter to Liu Yi, denounced Liu Yi's unethical behavior, and secretly sent someone to contact the Sifang Zong. , Shanyue, please help them to prepare for a battle with Liu Yi. After all, looking at the ancient and modern times, I have never seen a battle that will really be dismissed because of a letter. may.
Lian Yi said, looking at Liu Dutong ’s unethical behaviors in the letters, Liu Yi put down the bamboo slips and looked at the generals and said with a smile: "If it were not for Liu Du ’s letter, I did n’t know that he was so powerful. . "
"Sir!" Huang Zhong went out and bowed his hand to Liu Yi, saying: "Liu Du this is a plan to slow down the soldiers. He must be in contact with the sect thieves and Shan Yue. It ’s better to send troops immediately, and take advantage of the fact that their army has not yet assembled, and defeat them in one fell swoop! "
"No need!" Liu Yi shook his head, playing with the knife in his hand: "The general's words can solve the temporary problems, but here in Lingling, there are rampant gangsters. If Liu Du is defeated, those thieves will look bad and inevitable. The anti-Ge Yi flag is to occupy this Lingling, and the troubles of the sect thieves will still be difficult to solve in the future. It is better to take this opportunity to let Liu Du gather all these scam thieves together. "
This is different from the situation in Changsha. First, the trouble of the Changsha thief was not too severe. Second, Liu Yi was really a major general and had no choice, but now it is different. There are seven thousand soldiers and horses under his hand, and Generals like Huang Zhong, Liu Feng and Wei Yan can also be on their own. Guan Ping is a good assistant. On Lingling ’s side, the gangsters are too powerful and have reached the point where they must weaken the crackdown. Do n’t fight now and get zero. After the mausoleum, it is more difficult to have an excuse to suppress it. Now it is up to each one to live and die. If you win Lingling, it is your own. It is not as convenient as it is to do it now.
Huang Zhong frowned: "It's just that our army has no more than 7,000 troops. According to the detailed report, Liu Du has now gathered more than 10,000 people and is still gathering, I am afraid ..."
"Many people are an advantage." Liu Yi nodded. This is an objective fact. In the cold weapon era, the advantage of the number cannot be ignored. Looking at Huang Zhongdao: "But according to today's information, the assembled thieves now have More than a dozen, not to mention Shanyue soldiers and horses, the general thought, can these people share one heart? "
"This ..." Huang Zhong shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not easy, but also depends on how Liu Du dispatches."
"If you can't be concentric, you are a crowd of people. If you are in a good situation, you will be able to disperse. If you encounter some setbacks, you will be disbanded. Moreover, the large number of people means that the consumption of grain and grass is also large. I do n’t need time now. Camping and training everywhere, there are many people, it will not last long, he will see us not attacking, he will lead the army to attack, when the offense and defense are translocated, I wait for the camp, and the general can confidently guard? "Liu Yixiao Road.
"The battalion set by Mr. is quite strong, and our army has sufficient strength, although the attack is insufficient, but the defense is more than enough." Huang Zhong nodded, the power of the army camp built by Liu Yi, he had seen it in the past two days, I am afraid it was With enough troops, let him lead his troops to attack, as long as Liu Yi does not make any big mistakes, it is difficult to break through, not to mention a group of rabble.
"As long as we can hold it, we will win. Just waiting for the enemy's self-disruption is the time for our army to fight back!" Liu Yi smiled.
Liu Yi actually did n’t say anything. He was waiting for news from Guiyang. Wei Yan had been dispatched for a long time, but there was no movement. Obviously, Zhao Fan did not send troops, and now Han Xuan also arrived in Guiyang. Zhao Fan will respond somewhat, and Wei Yan is a wolf who secretly peeks and waits for his prey to reveal weaknesses. Once Zhao Fan takes action, Wei Yan will definitely shoot. No matter whether it succeeds or fails, Guiyang is unlikely to support Lingling.
Of course, the best result is that Wei Yan successfully defeated Zhao Fan, and quickly seized Guiyang. In that way, let alone get immediate support from Guiyang, but at least trapped Lingling. There is time to play with Liu Du.
Even if Wei Yan's attack fails, Guiyang's men and women can know that their situation is not safe, and naturally they dare not send troops easily.
Liu Yi naturally hopes that the best situation will appear, but things in this world cannot be smooth, and he is not Zhuge Liang, he has the ability to foresee the future, but as long as the worst result is determined, there will be no loss to himself. That ’s enough. Now you can let go of your hands and feet to get along with Liu.
On the other side, Liu Du gathered more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and his heart was more courageous. Seeing that Liu Yi was only recruiting soldiers on the road, but he had always been in the future. I could not wait for Liu Yi to come over to fulfill his reputation, but Liu Yi was as steady as Mount Tai Liu's sitting in the town did not mean to send troops at all, which made Liu Du somewhat dissatisfied and summoned the generals to discuss the matter.
"What does Liu Yi's troops mean, neither attack nor withdraw their troops?" Liu Du asked, frowning as he looked at the generals.
"It must be because of my strong military, I dare not attack." A general said with a smile.
This is also the idea of ​​everyone here. Liu Du looked at Liu Xian and said, "My son knows, how many soldiers are there in our army now?"
He only knows that there are many people, but all the sect thieves come to help, each with soldiers and horses, and at a time it is not possible to count how many people there are.
Liu Xian said with a smile: "Father rest assured ~ EbookFREE.me ~ There are only more than 10,000 soldiers gathered by the clan of all parties, plus my guardian soldiers, there are 15,000 people, and Shanyue Soldiers and horses, now our army is afraid that there are no less than 20,000 people. Then Liu Yi is afraid of our army ’s might and he dare not come over. "
Liu Duwen said that his heart was relieved a lot, 20,000 troops, this is not a small amount. You must know that Jiang Dong had resisted Cao Cao before, and Zhou Yu had no more than 30,000 horses.
But immediately, Liu Du frowned again: "These horses and horses consume a lot of grain and grass every day. If Liu Yi does not come to attack slowly, I can't afford to raise these horses!"
People came here to help, and Liu Du should handle this grain and grass, but Lingling is not a rich county. Although some grains have been stored in these years, it ca n’t stand 20,000 people like this. Worry about not being able to afford it.
Liu Xian thought for a moment and said: "Since he doesn't come, how about waiting for my troops to attack?"
Liu Du thought and thought it reasonable. Anyway, they had many soldiers and were afraid of anything. They immediately agreed to order Liu Xian to lead the army with Xing Daorong and send troops to join forces. Liu Du sat in the rear to provide logistical support for the army.
