Xiang Xun sneered: "Yo? Are you still impatient?"

Lu Meng suppressed the anger in his heart, then took out the edict from his arms and shouted: "Open your dog eyes and see clearly. This is the emperor's edict to grant rewards. My lord is now the Hussar General, Jingzhou Mu, and Nanchang Marquis, and has been ordered to conquer the self-reliance."

Liu Bei, the traitor who is the king, and Guan Yu, the minion who is entrenched in Jingzhou, why don't you immediately surrender the imperial edict?"

"My lord also received an imperial edict from the Emperor to join the King of Hanzhong, and General Guan also received an edict to go north to the King of Qin. How dare you show off your edicts and show your disgrace?" Xiang Xun winked.

"Liu Bei pretended to be the king and pretended to be king. You are a traitor and don't distinguish between black and white. You really are bastards and deserve to die." Lu Meng gritted his teeth.

"Who is this common man in the city? He spoke so loudly. Could it be that he just came back from going to the toilet?" Xiang Xun continued to tease.

Han Dang couldn't help it when he heard this. He shouted angrily with a strong voice: "This is General Lu Meng, the governor of Jiangdong. How can you and other unknown people recognize him?"

"Lu Meng? You are the rat that flatters you in front of General Guan? He really does have a sharp mouth and a monkey's cheeks, and his face is disgusting. I don't care if the general doesn't look at such a clumsy face." Xiang Xun sneered.

Lu Meng almost exploded with anger, and Han Dang followed up and yelled: "The garrison in Jiangling City is only two or three thousand, and our strength is ten times that of yours. If you don't know the current situation and resist stubbornly, we will all be destroyed after the city is broken. Liu Bei claims to be a member of the Han Dynasty, benevolent and righteous."

Wushuang, general, why don't you open the city and surrender in accordance with the emperor's edict? That way the people will not suffer."

"Hahaha, do you still know that my lord is a clan member of the Han Dynasty? Will the emperor issue an edict to the clan members, or will he issue an edict to the rebels who invaded Jiangdong? Isn't this a judgment from above?" Xiang Xun laughed heartily.

.

"Bastard, who is your surname? Do you dare to tell me your name? You have repeatedly despised and slandered my lord. I will definitely kill you after the city is broken." Lu Meng's face was full of anger.

Xiang Xun pointed at Lu Meng, "Is this magnanimous enough to be the governor? This general is Xiang Xun of Nanjun. Although he is only a junior captain, he still has to show his real ability if he wants to kill me.

But is it wrong for the Sun family to be a thief? In the past, Sun Jianqiang took the Wu family as his wife, his son Sun Ceqiang took Da Qiao as his concubine, and Sun Quan took Yuan Shu's daughter as his concubine. This is how they treat women, let alone those who do not belong to the family.

Their Kodong?”

"Grand Governor, it's useless to talk any more, let's attack by force." Even Han Dang couldn't bear it anymore.

"Xiang Xun, I've remembered you. Just wait for my wrath."

After Lu Meng finished speaking, he was escorted back to the battle. Soon Jiangdong's soldiers and horses launched an attack on Jiangling. However, Jiangling's city was tall and strong, and Xiangxun had made sufficient preparations. After several rounds of offensives, Jiangdong's side suffered heavy losses, but Xiangxun seemed to be at ease.

The Jiangdong side fought from afternoon to evening, and finally dragged their exhausted bodies to camp outside the city to rest. They originally thought that the opponent's defenders would surrender after hearing the news, but they encountered a tough guy like Xiang Xun.

After dinner at night, Lu Meng was lying in the tent to take a nap, when Han Dang suddenly walked in with his armor.

Hearing the noise, Lu Meng sat up and said, "Old General, it's hard work. These people under Liu Bei are so scheming that they might rob the camp at night. It won't hurt for us to be careful."

"The Governor is thoughtful and considerate."

Han Dang nodded in agreement on the surface, but in his heart he did not believe that Xiang Xun dared to go out of the city to rob the camp. After all, the opponent only had two or three thousand defenders. Lu Meng was so cautious now entirely because of his humiliating experience in Jiaozhou. He was beaten by Gan Ning and Samoko

After being educated at night, at this time, it became like "Once bitten by a snake, I will be afraid of well ropes for ten years."

"Old General Han will make some arrangements before going to bed. Tomorrow we will divide our army into three parts. Then we will attack from the east, west and south at the same time. As long as the noise is big enough, those in the city can take advantage of the situation to cause chaos. I don't believe that Xiang Xunxing

A person can hold on to this." Lu Meng showed a gloomy expression.

"Grand Governor, please rest early, General Mo will take care of it now." Han Dang clasped his fists and exited.

The next day, Lü Meng divided Jiangdong's army into three parts, and nine groups took turns to attack from three sides at the same time. The purpose was to use wheel fighting to consume the defenders' physical strength, and when the defenders were too tired, they would have a chance to break the city.

Due to the limited number of defenders, Xiang Xun had to go between the city gates to supervise the battle. He found that the Jiangdong soldiers were shouting loudly, but under the intensive attack of bows and arrows, falling rocks, and rolling logs, very few were able to climb up the city wall through ladders.

few.

Lü Meng's wheel battle lasted for a day. The soldiers who defended the city slumped down and fell asleep. The opponent hardly stopped for a moment, so the intensity of the defense was very strong. Xiang Xun also arranged for soldiers to be on duty at night. He didn't know if this kind of day would continue.

How long, but fortunately there are enough military supplies and abundant food reserves in the city. As long as he can persist for more than ten days, he believes that Jiangdong's offensive will weaken. After all, the defenders have a huge advantage.

That night, while Lan Ji and Guan Xing were patrolling the city, they arrested dozens of people who violated the curfew and took to the streets. The two did not have time to interrogate whether they were careful, so they were all imprisoned and planned to be dealt with after the war.

Most of the internal agents sent by Lu Meng in advance were arrested that night. They mistakenly thought that the city defense army was too busy, so they planned to set fire to cause chaos, deliberately causing the people of Jiangling to panic, so that they could take advantage of the fire to rob and seize the city gate. Unfortunately, they were finally killed by that person.

Five hundred young soldiers took care of it.

In the next two days, the offensive outside the city continued unabated, and the defenders on the city wall were very tired.

In order to buy rest time for his men, Xiang Xun asked Lan Ji for some prisoners of Cao's army to help defend the city. This time, in addition to carrying military supplies, they had to stand on the city wall and throw down rocks and logs.

Worried that the prisoners would take the opportunity to cause rebellion, Lan Ji sent a hundred young supervisors to each city wall. They sharpened their swords and stood behind the prisoners. Once they found signs of mutiny, they could kill them on the spot.

The prisoners had been tortured by Lan Ji for more than a month, and their original sharpness and arrogance had all disappeared. In front of these 'demon' teenagers, they could only passively choose to obey. It was better to walk up to the city wall and throw stones than to be beaten. After guarding the city for two days, they

It also filled my stomach.

At night, Lan Ji asked the young soldiers to patrol the streets again, completely blocking the way for those who slipped through the net, and the pressure on Xiang Xun's side was reduced by half.

At this moment, Xiang Xun finally understood the intentions of Guan Yu and Xu Shu. The five thousand prisoners Xu Shu left behind had indirectly become Lan Ji's tools to defend the city.

Xiang Xun felt that Lan Ji was born for war, and was more skilled at mobilizing troops than he, a captain, but Xiang Xun didn't know that Lan Ji had been exposed to it since he was a child, and some things had already been written in his blood.

The offensive and defensive sides were in a state of decline. The easier it was to defend Jiangling City, the more distressed Lu Meng was outside the city.

Five days later, the Jiangdong Army's losses had reached 30%, and the nine groups responsible for the wheel battle were getting smaller and smaller. Upon seeing this, Lu Meng had to weaken the attack, and then sent people to Sun Jiao to continue drawing troops.
