LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 357
Good guy.
Zhang Song's words are scary enough.
Wang Lei shuddered and didn't bother to ask any more questions, and quickly ordered the city gate to be opened.
Zhang Song hurriedly entered the city. Before he could get off his horse and take a breath, Wang Lei took three steps at a time and rushed down from the city.
"Zhang Biejia, what's going on?"
"You just said that I will definitely die. Why is that?"
Wang Lei asked impatiently.
Zhang Song, however, had a mysterious and solemn face. He first pulled Wang Lei up the tower, then pushed back all the soldiers on the left and right, and then closed the door of the tower himself. The more mysterious he became, the more Wang Lei felt in his heart. the more uneasy
"Do you know why Guan Yu stayed outside Yuwei City for three days and refused to leave for the west? Zhang
Song asked in a low voice.
Wang Lei was startled and shook his head:
"This is also what I am puzzled about. Guan Yu has not left for a long time. I am only worried about what he has planned!"
"you guessed right! Zhang
Song nodded heavily and said in a deep voice:
"That fellow Guan Yu didn't stay because he wanted to attack our Fish Belly City!"
As soon as he said this,
Wang Lei's expression changed and he asked hurriedly:
"Zhang Biejia, why did you say this?"
Zhang Song was about to speak, but hesitated. He went to the door and looked carefully. He was sure that there was no spy from the Han army outside, and then he walked back.
"In fact, I was not just a guide in the Han camp. I secretly bribed many Han soldiers to act as my eyes and ears."
"Yesterday I found out that Guan Yu was in the mountains to the north, logging wood for timber, and secretly building ladders and trebuchets."
"In three days at most, after these siege equipment are built, he will suddenly launch an attack and attack our Fish Belly City!"
Wang Lei changed his face in shock, jumped up, and rushed out of the door in a few steps.
He wanted to lie down by the city wall and look at the Han camp, and wanted to see what was going on.
"There's no need to go and see it. Didn't I tell you that Guan Yu sent troops to secretly build it in the mountains? I didn't even notice it, let alone you."
Zhang Song pulled Wang Lei back.
Wang Lei believed it more and more, and couldn't help but grit his teeth and cursed:
"Okay, what Zhang Gongyi, Huang Gongheng and the others were worried about was indeed correct."
"In the name of helping us resist Cao Cao, Liu Bei really took the opportunity to cross our Three Gorges natural barrier, raid our Fish Belly City, and take advantage of the opportunity to enter the hinterland of Yizhou!"
Zhang Song nodded and acquiesced to his speculation.
Wang Lei then glared at him and complained:
"I said Zhang Biejia, Liu Bei is very ambitious and wants to devour Yizhou!"
"How can you and Fa Xiaozhi and the others urge Guan Yu to lead his army into Shu? You are trying to kill the Duke of Shu!"
Zhang Song sighed helplessly, with a look of shame on his face.
"We also have good intentions and want to help Duke Shu resist Cao Cao. Who would have thought that Liu Bei would have evil intentions?"
"Xiaozhi was deceived by Guan Yu, and we were all deceived by Liu Bei."
Zhang Song stumbled and sighed, blaming himself.
Wang Lei wanted to accuse Zhang Song, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back and could only sigh.
After all, Zhang Song's official position was higher than his own.
If Zhang Song admits that he made a mistake, that is his business.
As a subordinate, if you continue to make accusations, then you are doing the wrong thing and being ignorant.
"Fortunately, Zhang Biejia discovered it in time. It's not too late for us to make up for the situation before it's too late."
"I now order the whole city to be on alert and prepare to face the Han army's siege."
"Zhang Bie, please return to Chengdu immediately and report to Shu Gong to move troops. Come quickly to reinforce Yuwei City."
"As long as the reinforcements arrive within ten days, I can keep the city intact."
Wang Lei is also very confident that he can hold on to the fish belly for ten days.
After all, there are nearly 7,000 elite Shu troops in the city.
The fish belly is the east gate of Yizhou, and it is a veritable strong city.
Zhang Song was shaken. Shaking his head, he said in a deep voice:
"It was too late. By the time I brought in reinforcements, Guan Yu had already captured the belly of the fish."
Wang Lei frowned.
To him, it was obvious that Zhang Song was despising his ability to command troops, thinking that he could not hold the fish belly for ten days.
"Zhang Biejia, although I, Wang Lei, am not a famous general, I do have some general talents."
"Yubelly City is our strong city in the east of Shu. Don't I even have the ability to hold it for ten days? Wang
Lei raised the corner of his mouth and asked displeasedly.
Zhang Song smiled bitterly and had no choice but to explain:
"I do not underestimate the ability of your king in commanding troops."
"But you don’t know, the trebuchet Guan Yu is building is actually the rumored Xiangyang cannon."
"With the strength of the walls of our Fish Belly City, there is no way it can withstand it."
Xiangyang Pao! (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
These three words made Wang Lei tremble.
"Is it the legendary trebuchet that Deng Mu built for Liu Bei, which was so powerful that it could even blast through city walls?"
"'It's the artifact."
Wang Lei took a breath and couldn't help but shudder.
Although he is in Shu, he naturally has ways to obtain information from the outside world.
Regarding the rumors of Xiangyang cannon, they, the civil and military officials in Shu, have heard a lot. He was afraid.
But he didn't expect that the artifact of fear actually existed.
And Guan Yu secretly built such an artifact and prepared to use it to forcibly break through his city wall.
"Is this thing really as powerful as rumored?"
Wang Lei still had some luck in his heart.
Zhang Song nodded heavily and said with determination:
"To tell you the truth, when I was on my mission to Jiangling, I personally saw the Han army practicing the trebuchet."
"That thing is so powerful that it's beyond all our imagination."
"I dare to guarantee with my life that the walls of our Fish Belly City will never be able to withstand the bombardment of the Xiangyang Cannon!"
Wang Lei took a breath again. The confidence and confidence he had just now were completely blown away by Zhang Song's few words.[]
(Okay) Think about it, if you had followed your countermeasures, Guan Yu would have conquered Fish Belly City before we even arrived in Chengdu."
"At that time, the gate to the east of Shu was wide open, and the Han army marched straight in to kill Jiangzhou, and then took Chengdu directly."
"I, Yizhou, are in danger!"
The more Zhang Song spoke, the more critical he became. Wang Lei felt his heart tremble after hearing this. After being stunned for a long while,
Wang Lei could only grit his teeth and said generously:
"Even so, we have no other choice. I, Wang Lei, have no choice but to risk my life and die for Duke Shu to seize Yuwei City Za!"
"Even if I have to live and die with Fish Belly City, I will never hesitate!"
Zhang Song rolled his eyes a few times, but lowered his voice and said:
"Wang Zheng, I have a plan. We don’t need you to die. Not only can we hold the belly of the fish, but we can also drive Guan Yu and his Han army out of the east of the Three Gorges in one fell swoop!"
Wang Lei's eyes brightened, his face showed joy, and he asked hurriedly:
"What's Zhang Biejia's clever plan?".
