    In Xiangyang City, Ma Liang has been feeling uneasy since Liu Pan led his army out of the city.  How talented is Zhuge Liang?  He knew clearly that if it was just to attack and defend the city, he would not be worried, but now that Liu Pan was out fighting in the city, he was unsure.

    "My lord, look"

    Ma Liang looked in the direction pointed by the soldier and saw a group of soldiers and horses, about six to seven hundred people, rushing towards the city in a chaotic manner.

    "All soldiers, prepare to fight!"

    "No!"

    On the top of the city, there were immediately numerous swords and spears. Shields protected the crenellations of the city wall. Archers and crossbowmen placed arrows on their strings. Strong men also stood beside the rolling logs and thunder stones.

    "Sir, they are ours!" When this group of soldiers approached, everyone saw clearly that they were wearing Han army clothes and armor, and they all looked embarrassed.

    After arriving at the city, they stopped and saw a centurion, holding a knife in one hand and covered in blood, staggering to the city.

    "Quickly notify the governor and open the city gate. General Liu is injured!"

    "Who are you?" Ma Liang asked.

    "I am Zhao Cheng, the centurion under General Liu. We went to assist Zhang Ling, but we were ambushed by Liu Bei's army on the way. Almost the entire army was wiped out. General Liu was seriously injured and was unconscious!" Zhao Cheng finished,  Several soldiers carried a general wearing armor and covered in blood and appeared under the city.

    "My lord, it seems to be General Liu. Do you want to open the city gate?"

    "Wait a minute!"

    "Zhao Cheng, who is the centurion of your team?" Ma Liang looked at the group of soldiers under the city, then looked at the centurion, and asked, "Where is the commander of General Liu Pan's soldiers?"

    "This" Zhao Cheng hesitated, "I don't know the captain, but the commander of the soldiers has died in the battle!"

    "Kill" At this moment, a group of soldiers and horses suddenly appeared in the distance.

    "Sir, the enemy is coming, let us in quickly, otherwise General Liu will be in danger!" Zhao Cheng shouted anxiously when he saw it.

    Ma Liang looked into the distance and saw about five thousand soldiers and horses rushing towards him. A sneer appeared on his face and he lowered his voice and said, "Archers, follow my orders and prepare to release arrows!"

    "No!"

    "You guys come down to the city!"

    "Quick, come here!" Upon hearing this, Zhao Cheng hurriedly said to the people behind him.

    Five to six hundred soldiers soon arrived at the city.

    "My lord, open the city gate quickly!"

    "Ha" Ma Liang burst out laughing, "You are all Liu Bei's soldiers, don't lie to me and shoot arrows!"

    The crossbowmen on the top of the city are already ready, their arrows are like locusts!

    "Ah" A scream came. Zhao Cheng was at the front and was shot into a hedgehog. A large number of the soldiers beside him also fell.

    "Run!" Someone shouted, and then the soldiers reacted, turned around and ran back.

    But how could the crossbowmen on top of the city let them go so easily?  Moreover, there is no threat to the city from below, because they are here to deceive the city, not to mention siege equipment, not even bows and arrows.

    By the time they escaped beyond the range of the bow and arrow, there were less than a hundred people alive.

    At this time, Liu Bei's army also arrived, led by the general Liu Feng.

    "Generalwe"

    Liu Feng waved his hand and asked these soldiers to go down. He seemed a little disappointed.

    He didn't care at all about the death of hundreds of soldiers, but he didn't pretend to open the city gate, so that he could not perform any meritorious service.

    "Ma Liang, Liu Pan has fallen into the trap of our military advisor and the entire army has been wiped out. Fancheng has also been captured by us, and Wang Wei died in the battle. Liu Cong was defeated in Shangyong. You are now outnumbered, so surrender obediently!"

    "The noisy people in the city, please report your name!" Liu Feng's words surprised Ma Liang. Liu Pan's defeat had already occurred to him, but the defeat of Wang Wei and his lord Liu Cong surprised him.  But he didn't panic and was very calm.

    "I am Liu Feng, the general under Emperor Liu's command!"

    "Liu Feng?" Ma Liang smiled, "I seem to have heard that your name is Kou Feng. When did you sell your ancestors?"

    "Ha" When the soldiers on the city heard this, they all laughed.

    "Ma Liang, you" Liu Feng was so angry that he could hardly speak.

    Liu Feng was originally the son of the Kou family of Luohou and a native of Changsha County. His original name was Kou Feng.

    When Liu Bei first arrived in Jingzhou, he learned that Kou Feng was highly skilled in martial arts, had a fierce personality, and had extraordinary strength. He liked him very much because he wasAt that time, Liu Bei had no heirs, so he adopted Kou Feng as his adopted son and changed his name to Liu Feng.  In order to have a successor for his career and win the hearts of everyone.

    But unexpectedly, when his son Liu Chan was born, Liu Feng¡¯s identity would become a bit embarrassing.  At this moment, Ma Liang was poking his sore spot, how could he not be angry!

    "Siege the city!" Liu Feng shouted.

    "Kill!" The soldiers rushed forward.

    Ma Liang looked at it with a sneer on his face.  Although Liu Feng had a lot of soldiers, he didn't have many siege equipment, not even a few ladders. Do you want to fly up?  Moreover, Ma Liang is still waiting for work.

    "Give me an arrow and shoot them to death!"

    Ma Liang gave an order, and all the crossbowmen fired arrows at the city, and the strong men also threw down the rolling wood and thunder stones.

    The city immediately turned into a meat grinder, with constant cries and howls, and it was too miserable to watch.

    "Quickly retreat!" Liu Feng finally came to his senses. He had been hit by Ma Liang's provocation. How could this be an siege?  It¡¯s just a matter of death!  He was ordered to seize the city, not to attack it at all. Even if there were few soldiers in the city, Xiangyang City was tall and strong, so how could his five thousand soldiers and horses be able to break it.

    However, by the time they withdrew, nearly a thousand people had died under the city, which made Liu Feng very upset. He had to retreat three miles, set up camp, and wait for Zhuge Liang's order.

    Outside Jiangxia City, in the woods about fifty miles away, Liu Cong's 40,000-strong army was secretly stationed here.

    Pang Tong, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan and others were much more familiar with Jingzhou than Liu Cong, so the hiding place they found was not only close to Jiangxia and Xiakou, but also difficult to find.

    In Liu Cong¡¯s commander¡¯s tent, just as he was about to give the order to go out, he received several messages from the Skynet Camp, which suddenly disrupted Liu Cong¡¯s plan.

    "Zhuge Liang, I can't spare you!" Liu Cong gritted his teeth, "Send the order quickly and return to Xiangyang. I want to move all Zhuge Liang's army!"

    "My lord, what happened?" Pang Tongyi was surprised when he heard this. Didn't they agree to attack Jiangxia?  Why has it suddenly changed now that he has to return to Xiangyang again?

    "Old General WangOld General Wang died in battle!" Liu Cong's voice was trembling as he handed the information to Pang Tong.

    "What?" Pang Tong, Huang Zhong, and Wei Yan were all shocked.

    For Wang Wei, Liu Cong has almost never met, but he knows that this is a veteran who is loyal to their Liu family.  In previous history, in order to save their mother and son, he led an army of dogs and sheep to defeat the tigers and wolves, but was killed by Yu Jin.  But in this life, Liu Cong changed history, but he did not change Wang Wei's fate. He still fought for himself to the last drop of his blood.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
