    Zhang Zhao also had a helpless expression after hearing Zhang Ya's words.  After all, when he saw Zhang Ya in such a miserable state, he could guess how hard the blow was.

    Being able to escape alive and come back is already very rare. How can we expect him to find out more information?

    However, what is 100% certain is that Lexiang has been lost, and we don¡¯t know whether the guard Zhan Qiang is alive or dead.

    Zhang Zhao had to pay special attention to such a result.

    Although Sun Quan and Zhou Yu did not explain the follow-up strategy to him before, Zhang Zhao was able to judge it based on his more than ten years of experience.

    This Lexiang is more than just an inconspicuous small county town.

    Liu Ke is now confronting Sun Quan and Liu Bei with their respective armies in Zhijiang. Both sides are eager to continue to increase their troops and send generals.

    If you really want a decisive battle, how can you do something like dividing your troops to weaken your own strength?

    "Then the other party could, at such a critical moment, split its troops hundreds of miles away to sneak attack on a small county town. It's self-evident.

    Therefore, Zhang Zhao immediately returned to the government office and personally wrote down everything that happened here.

    Whether it was the current situation in Lexiang or the news brought back by Zhang Ya who he sent out, he did not hide anything.

    Then he gave it to his personal attendant and ordered him to immediately deliver the letter to Zhijiang Camp where Sun Quan was located.

    After watching his entourage ride away from the west gate of Jiangling on fast horses, Zhang Zhao felt a little relieved until his back disappeared from sight, and slowly returned to the city.

    He was still shaking his head and laughing at himself on the way back.

    "Well, as I get older, even my mental endurance is not as good as before. These things actually make me, an old man, so flustered!"

    But after he sent the letter, although he relaxed a little, his heart was still beating fast and he was still uneasy.

    The opponent has already captured Lexiang, but what will they do next?  Will they take the opportunity to continue attacking other cities?

    "It's just that everything is unknown, but it makes people have to guard against it.

    Therefore, on the way back, Zhang Zhao urgently summoned Zhang Ya.

    "General Zhang Ya, I am still uneasy about this matter, and it seems that I still need to trouble you!"

    Hearing this, Zhang Ya looked stern and said hurriedly: "Sir, if you have any arrangements, just give me your orders. I will just obey your orders!"

    Seeing how cooperative the other party was, Zhang Zhao finally revealed his arrangement.

    It turns out that he was worried that the other party would make big moves later. In order to avoid such danger, the best way was to trap him in Lexiang City.

    ???????? Actually, if you calculate it carefully, from the time you saw Lang Yan to Zhang Ya¡¯s return, it didn¡¯t take long in total.

    So what can be expected is that even if the opponent wins Lexiang, their foothold is not stable.

    So taking advantage of this opportunity, maybe there will be a chance to take it back again.

    Even if you can't get it back in a short time, you can still block the opponent in the city to prevent it from threatening other places.

    But after Zhang Ya heard this, her face became a little embarrassed.

    He hurriedly said: "My lord, it is not Xiao Xiao's intention to shirk. But now all the main troops have been taken to Zhijiang by the lord.

    We only have a total of 10,000 defenders left in Jiangling who can be mobilized. These numbers may not be enough to take over the heavily guarded Lexiang!  "

    When Zhang Zhao heard what the other party said, he did not blame the other party for shirk.

    Instead, he frowned and thought for a moment before slowly saying: "General Zhang Ya, I don't expect you to take Lexiang this time, you just need to block the opponent.

    As for what you said about the lack of troops, there is no need to worry.  I have already sent someone to quickly send a letter to Zhijiang asking for help.

    "In addition, I will send a letter to Jiangjin's garrison, instructing him to take all the garrison in the city and go straight to Lexiang to support you.  "

    Hearing Zhang Zhao¡¯s words, Zhang Ya couldn¡¯t say anything more.

    He could only express with a solemn face: "My lord, after careful consideration, I will definitely die through fire and water!"

    Afterwards, he led most of the troops in the city towards Lexiang again.

    "There are only 2,000 people garrisoned in Jiangling City.

    After Zhang Zhao¡¯s letter, he rushed to Zhijiang urgently, but here, a fierce fight was also taking place.

    In the first few days of the battle between the three armies, it was true that only the generals of each party were fighting in formation, but this was just to test each other.

    As the confrontation lengthened,Casualties inevitably occurred during the battle, and the anger of the soldiers on the three sides continued to increase.

    In the end, the gun went off and a war finally broke out.

    Early that morning, Liu Ke saw that all the soldiers were filled with indignation and took the initiative to ask for a fight.

    He first estimated the time in his mind. Ling Tong should have started to take action in the past few days.

    Therefore, there is nothing wrong with adding a fire to Zhijiang at the right time.

    Therefore, he no longer had any scruples, and immediately arranged for the four armies of Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Dian Wei, and Xu Huang to launch a formal attack on Zhijiang.

    At first, the other party thought that he was repeating the routine of the previous days, and he didn't care yet.

    But it wasn¡¯t until the four armies quickly advanced towards Zhijiang that Sun Quan and Liu Bei finally became nervous.

    Liu Bei immediately made arrangements: "Yide, you return to Zhijiang City to garrison. Yun Chang and Wen Chang, each of you lead your own troops to guard outside the city.

    As long as you seize the opportunity, you will launch a fierce attack on the opponent and cover the defenders in the city!  "

    Sun Quan¡¯s arrangement was similar to Liu Bei¡¯s. He divided his army into two groups, one inside and one outside, fighting on both sides.

    Therefore, a war that affected the world and brought together three of the four heroes finally broke out.

    The troops of the three parties refused to give in to each other, and the battle was very fierce.

    And this time Liu Ke took out all the heavy siege equipment in his hand and started bombarding Zhijiang City.

    In the last attack by Zhao Yun and others, Zhijiang's city wall had already withstood a bombardment.

    It was already on the verge of collapse at that time. If the reinforcements from Guan Yu and Sun Quan had not arrived in time, they would have completely fallen.

    After Sun Quan and Liu Bei arrived and Zhao Yun's troops temporarily retreated, they immediately began to repair the city wall.

    Who would have thought that just a few days after it was repaired, it would suffer a greater attack.

    The intensity this time was far greater than the last time. Zhang Fei and Cheng Pu in the city were beaten to the point of screaming.

    And under the strict orders of their respective lords, the armies of Guan Yu and Han Dang, who were fighting on the move outside the city, launched attacks on the other side's positions again and again regardless of casualties.

    Dian Wei and Zhao Yun, who were responsible for the defense here, saw that the opponent's offensive was so fierce, so they could only defend and block it desperately.

    The battle continued until evening. The three parties saw that it was getting late and each retreated.

    After paying a heavy price, the armies of Sun Quan and Liu Bei finally stopped the opponent's siege troops.

    Although the city was already riddled with holes, fortunately it was not completely defeated by the opponent.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
