Chapter 315
“Kill!” The walls of Shouchun had been stained with blood The sound of killing did not cease Liu Bei’s soldiers attacked continuously Once Shouchun is captured, Yangzhou would be theirs The s
Liu Bei has tens of thousands of soldiers while Xu Shu only had ten thousand soldiers However, Xu Shu had the help of the people,on for four days Liu Bei’s Army had already lost more than ten thousand soldiers while even more people had died on the walls However, Shouchun was still not yet captured “Order a retreat!” Liu Bei said as he looked at Shouchun The sky was turning dark They could no longer attack for the day
“Phew!” Xu Shu breathed out a sigh of relief when he saw Liu Bei’s Army leave The intensity of the attack was too powerful In four days, he was only left with less than two thousand men If it was not for the walls, Shouchun would have already fallen Liu Bei also suffered heavy casualties as zhou Army was killed It was reasonable to say that Xu Shu ca said, Xu Shu was unable to feel happy as Liu Bei still has half of his army while Xu Shu only has two thousandprovisions
With the help of his bodyguards, Xu Shu found a place on the wall to take a rest After a while, a general in white armor walked onto the wall He saw the dead bodies and furrowed his eyebrows He only saw a few thousand ht in their eyes They had already lost hope “Military advisor Let me join in the defense!” Zhao Yun cupped his fist He had seen the battle in the past few days Due to the lack of fierce generals, the battle beco Fei or Chen Dao cliarrison soldiers were not aYi was also injured and would have been killed if it was not because of his good luck They so two ballistae to chase Zhang Fei and Chen Dao away The battle would not have become like this if Zhao Yun was also there This hy Zhao Yun wanted to join the fight on the walls In the end, he was also one of Liu Mang’s men
“No General Zhao Yun, you still have other is to do Your troops cannot be on the battlefield” Xu Shu replied heavily
“What other i Shouchun?” Although Zhao Yun would not violate a direct order, he was also anxious He wanted Xu Shu to tell hiShouchun!” Xu Shu looked at Zhao Yun with a small smile He did not want to tell Zhao Yun what it was because it would becoe blow to theall the drawings and blueprints with his must not fall into Liu Bei’s hands There was also no one else that could accoht Is there news froe the subject
“There is” Zhao Yun nodded As Zhao Yun did not participate in the battle, Xu Shu let Zhao Yun deal withLiu Mang’s point of contact “Milord sent us five thousand provisions”
“Five thousand provisions!” Xu Shu laughed and then felt down again He laughed because they would be able to last longer with the provisions He felt down because they would not be able to hold out ht now?” Xu Shu continued to ask Shouchun no longer hoped for reinforce They had already received news that the Wolf Cavalry had been a could only protect themselves now
“Reports tell us that we have captured Ruyin!” Zhao Yun did not dare to hide anything from Xu Shu
“Ruyin?” Xu Shu reranary with lots of provisions With the provisions frozhou would be able to stop their food crisis
“Military advisor Most of the provisions from Ruyin had been taken away by Liu Bei When Milord’s ar twenty thousand provisions in the city had been burned by Pang Tong’s et any provisions fro Tong was truly ruthless to simply burn thatto have Sun Qian killed Xu Shu had truly underesti?” Xu Shu asked again As Liu Mang’s Arht their way to Runan, they could only retreat However, they could not immediately return to Shouchun
“Yes Milord has ” Zhao Yun already knew the answer
“So they are not returning!” Xu Shu said to hi a bit lost This is because he had still been waiting for Liu Mang’s reinforcements Now, he found out that the reinforcehed “No He should not be co back!” Shouchun was already out of provisions If Liu Mang were to return, he would only delay the inevitable In other words, it was better for Liu Mang not to return
“Ziyang This is truly a good strategy!” Xu Shu saw that this move was planned by Liu Ye in order to cut off Liu Bei’s supply route Liu Bei has struck deep into Yangzhou However, the disadvantage was that his front lines was too far in front If Liu Mang were to cut off his supply routes, Liu Bei would be forced to retreat
___
‘Liu Ye Liu Ziyang?’ The people in Liu Bei’s ested this name However, this was not in admiration to Liu Ye but one of hatred This was because of the intelligence brought by the many scouts that sacrificed their lives to deliver it This was because the route frozhou had been blocked The location of the block was not Yiyang but Guangzhou The same place that Liu Pi had failed to capture They did not expect Guangzhou to beco! He truly deserves to be a person Cao Cao personally chased after!” Pang Tong felt that the man was not such a simple person when he saw this infor this person thecould capture Yingshang and Ruyin so quickly was not only because of superior y Besides that, he also received news that Sun Qian, as supposed to be killed by Liu Mang, had survived although he was in a sorry state
This e’s Are in and that would be the end for Sun Qian Even if it was not, Sun Qian would still be unable to escape because of Pang Tong’s dispatched subordinates As expected, Sun Qian was captured and then wanted to exchange his life for the provisions Pang Tong then had the provisions burned and tried to pin it on Sun Qian As long as the Liu Mang’s Arry, Sun Qian would die He was supposed to die but somehow survived
Sun Qian’s testi wanted hi’s Arive hi fro believed that this was Liu Ye’s stratege’s current military advisor However, he could not say this out as it would ainst Sun Qian However, Pang Tong now reain As they were unable to capture Runan, they went to Guangzhou to block Liu Bei’s supply routes Their intention was to keep Liu Bei at Yangzhou and ive Shouchun a breather
“Milord We should first secure the supply route If we cannot protect our provisions, ould be finished!” Chen Dao immediate stood and cupped his fist at Liu Bei the moment he received this information
