    Sun Jian also knew that the city of Xiangyang was strong and could not be captured in a day or two, so he was prepared for a protracted war.

    So he divided his troops into four groups and surrounded Xiangyang City, using the east gate as the main attack.

    "Hahaha! Sun Jian, come up if you can!" Cai Hao shouted.

    Relying on the city's defense, he repelled Sun Jian's numerous attacks.  So, he is very proud now.

    He had long forgotten all about the previous defeat.

    But it¡¯s Cai Mao¡¯s villainous behavior that makes people irritated.

    " He is obviously a loser, but you can't do anything with him. It would be unbearable for anyone else, let alone the arrogant Sun Jian.

    ??Could Xiangyang¡¯s city wall be higher than Sishui Pass?

    Fuck you!

    Sun Jian's army climbed up the city wall again and again, and Cai Mao felt very comfortable with each blow.

    From morning to night, the siege did not stop.

    But Cai Hao persisted.

    After repelling the siege again, Cai Mao appeared in the main hall covered in blood.

    "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life!" Cai Mao said loudly.

    Liu Biao ordered his servants to show Cai Hao his seat, and Cai Hao felt very happy.

    "Degui, thank you for your hard work!"

    "No hard work! No hard work! For the Lord, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!" Cai Mao said loyally.

    Kuai Liang was very disdainful of this, but Liu Biao was in high spirits, so he did not ridicule him.

    "Sun Jian has not withdrawn his troops yet, it is too early to be happy now."

    "I defeated Sun Jian, and you are not happy. Do you have to be happy if I lose?"

    Cai Mao felt extremely unhappy.

    "It's okay, I just don't know how Zhongxuan is doing." Liu Biao sighed.

    Wang Can¡¯s mission is the most important thing.

    If reinforcements are invited, the siege of Xiangyang can be solved.

    "My lord, don't worry, Marquis Dongyang will definitely come." In order to disgust Kuai Liang, Cai Mao began to support Wang Can.

    Liu Biao nodded, unwilling to say more.

    Cai Mao continued: "What's more, even without reinforcements, we can still win in Jingzhou. Yuan Shu's army doesn't have much food. How much can we lend to Sun Jian?"

    Liu Biao¡¯s eyes lit up, it was indeed the case, persistence is victory.

    The food in Xiangyang city is not a problem for two years, all thanks to the trade with Yangzhou.

    After many days of attacking, Sun Jian's army was exhausted.  Of course, the situation is the same in the city.

    Suddenly, a strong wind blew up, and the flag of Sun Jian's army broke.

    The flag bearer immediately knelt down and said: "Lord, please spare my life!"

    Sun Jian led his troops with kindness, and the soldiers were willing to die for him. How could he blame his subordinates for this?

    "This matter has nothing to do with you." Sun Jian said, as if the flag bearer had been granted amnesty.

    People in this era always believe in some theories about ghosts and gods, so Han Dang said tactfully:

    "This is not a good sign, we should withdraw our troops."

    Victory is right in front of you, how can you lose your energy just because of something?

    Sun Jian said loudly: "Since I sent out troops, I have won many battles. No one can stop me. Xiangyang will be captured soon. We cannot give up all our previous efforts. The broken flag is just an accident."

    Sun Ce also agreed with his father¡¯s view. After all, man can conquer nature.

    Han Dang could only sigh, but he still fought hard: "My lord has to guard against it!"

    Sun Jian didn't take it seriously, but nodded in agreement. After all, this was a veteran, and he had to give him some face.

    " Han Dang has followed Sun Jian for so many years, how could he not know that he was perfunctory, but for a while, he had no suitable reason to persuade him and could only give up.

    However, he kept an eye on it and sent a document to Huang Gai, who was guarding the ship, asking him to pay attention to what was happening on the shore.

    Huang Gai was baffled when he received the document.

    The next day, Sun Jian attacked the city more aggressively, causing Cai Mao to complain endlessly.

    "Sun Jian, you thief, I will not give in to you!"

    Cai Mao yells from time to time, which is annoying.

    "Damn it! I will kill this thief!" Sun Ce secretly made up his mind.

    However, every time Sun Ce wanted to challenge him, Sun Jian blocked him.

    Nonsense, siege warfare is very dangerous, how could Sun Jian not know?

    Once you get to the top of the city and you can't capture it, it will be extremely difficult to get down.

      It is rare to see people climb up the city wall and still come back.

    With such battle losses, how could Sun Jian let his son play?

    Therefore, Cai Mao became even more arrogant and said: "Sun Jian, you must be afraid, haha!"

    Strangely, because of the ridicule of their general, the morale of the Jingzhou soldiers was greatly boosted, and they drove Sun Jian's army off the city wall again.

    "Old thief Sun Jian, your people are useless. Since you are afraid, let your son come up in your place. I promise not to hurt his life!" Cai Mao's throat became hoarse from shouting, but he never tired of it.

    Sun Ce was so angry that he asked for a fight again.

    "Father, let me go!"

    Sun Jian grabbed his hot-blooded son and whispered: "Don't be arrogant. Look at me, dad. I fight bravely, but it also depends on the timing! If I can take Xiangyang in one go, I will definitely let you go."

    Sun Ce had no choice but to give up. After returning to the camp, he couldn't help but think of the unparalleled hero Liu Dingfang.

    I heard that the Marquis of Dongyang must take the lead in every battle. Even if his close friends continued to die in battle, he was still unscathed.

    In front of Sishui Pass, Hua Xiong single-handedly challenged the entire Allied forces, and all of them died in the battle.  Only Dongyang Hou rode out alone and captured Hua Xiong alive.

    I heard that when he came back, the wine that Cao Cao warmed for him was still warm.

    This kind of life is what I want!

    Fight!  fighting!  Keep improving yourself!

    The inspirational work of young Sun Ce.

    On the other side, Liu Ke sat on the bow of the boat, riding the wind and waves.

    Because the river is too narrow, it is inconvenient for sea ships to move, so they use building ships to fight.

    Therefore, Liu Ke¡¯s naval forces are all built with large ships.

    This time, he only led 30,000 naval troops and headed straight for Jingzhou along the Yangtze River.

    The general only took Gan Ning and Dian Wei with him, and his adviser was Liu Ye.

    As for why Liu Ye was brought along, it was because he was also a member of the Han clan, although he has very little status now.

    Liu Ke planned to take him to meet Liu Biao.

    This time, Liu Ke had only one goal, which was to prevent Sun Jian or Yuan Shu from occupying Jingzhou.

    As for combat, it depends on the situation.

    Yangzhou¡¯s naval force cannot be said to be number one in the world, but it is firmly ranked among the top two.

    As for number one?  I'm afraid Jingzhou doesn't dare to snatch it either.

    So along the way, Gan Ning was domineering and no one dared to stop him.

    "Lord, we met three waves of scouts along the way." Gan Ning said, he had observed them all.

    "Is it possible that we have been exposed?" Liu Kedao said, their naval force is huge and there are hundreds of ships. As long as they are not blind, they can definitely see clearly.

    "The first wave of scouts should belong to Yuan Shu, and the second and third waves of scouts are from nearby Jiang bandits." Gan Ning said.

    "Well, even Jiang bandits cannot take it lightly. Most of them will collude with the local government, and maybe they are their eyes and ears." Liu Kedao.

    "Yes!" Gan Ning said, "Then, for this battle, we will formulate a battle plan based on the premise that our army has been discovered."

    "Okay." Liu Kedao said that he knew nothing about water warfare, so he could just leave it to Gan Ning.

    "Do you really think Gan Ning is a reckless general because he is so tanned?"

    This battle will definitely suffer.

    Gan Ning is a man who fights his way through a hail of guns and swords. He is brave, fearless and lawless.

    History is recorded like this:

    "Although Ning is rough and fierce and easy to kill, he is cheerful and strategic, and he values ??wealth and respects people.

    Gan Ning was born in a scholarly family and was familiar with hundreds of schools of thought!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
