Chapter 2061 Xiangyang falls, thorns block the way(1/2)
Since serious health problems occurred, Liu Biao has almost never gone to the city wall to watch the battle. Although Liu Biao did his best in his own mansion, after all, there are some differences from leaders who go to the front line to fight in person.
.
When Cao Jun and the Cai family joined hands to sneak into the city and seize the south gate of Xiangyang, Liu Biao was sitting in the front yard of the mansion. When the first shout was faintly heard, others had not yet heard clearly what was going on. Liu Biao
But he suddenly straightened his neck and looked towards the south...
In an instant, the chaotic sounds of shouting and fighting erupted in the south like thunder and went straight into the sky. In the blink of an eye, these mixed sounds of shouting swept from south to north, sweeping through the whole city, inside and outside the city, and they were mixed together.
, with overwhelming murderous intent, shaking the entire Xiangyang City, impacting the hearts of everyone inside, spreading fear, which means death.
"Xiangyang has been destroyed! Xiangyang has been destroyed! Only kill Liu Biao, and those who surrender will avoid death!"
The frantic shouts of death and exclamations from outside became even louder. The whole city, the neighbors, and the surrounding deep mansions and courtyards seemed to be in commotion because of this.
Liu Biao's face was very pink, so he couldn't see any changes in his expression. He just swayed slightly, then stood still and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, please don't panic! It's just Xiaoxiao!"
Pang Zhizhong temporarily takes over the military post and strictly guards the north gate! Order Wen Zhongye to quickly lead troops to quell the chaos in the city!』
After Liu Biao finished shouting, his breath was inevitably short for a moment. He took a few sharp breaths and continued to order: "Get a certain weapon! Close the front and rear doors! Soldiers go up to the turret! If any thieves approach, they will be killed without mercy!"
On the long street of Xiangyang, there was already a chaos, with cries and cries. Everywhere in the streets and alleys, there were helpless people running around. There were also some scattered Jingzhou soldiers, holding weapons, but
Like a headless fly, being pulled around by the flow of people and not knowing which direction to go.
In Xiangyang City, some fires have started to rise. In any troubled times, it is inevitable that there will be some people who, no matter what, only think about themselves, and will take advantage of the chaos, becoming a beautiful scenery.
Liu Biao stood on the high platform, raised his sword and shouted: "This is Liu Biao, the herdsman of Jingzhou! The Cao thieves are greedy and ruthless, and they robbed and plundered Jingzhou! As my loyal fellow citizens in Jingzhou, don't be deceived by them! Let's fight against foreign enemies and defend our homeland!"
The guards standing near the Mufu Yamen in Jingzhou also shouted: "Together we will defend against foreign enemies and defend our homeland! Together we will defend against foreign enemies and defend our homeland!"
In the midst of the panic, Liu Biao could be heard making such a sound, which naturally had some effect. Many scattered Jingzhou soldiers also found their way and moved closer to Liu Biao.
Amidst the billowing black smoke, Liu Biao held his sword high and roared over and over again until his voice became hoarse. Beads of sweat fell from his forehead, and the thick powder on his face was washed out into ravines.
At this moment, the fighting near the south gate of Xiangyang has reached its most brutal stage.
Although Cai Jiu and others initially took advantage of the surprise and killed the soldiers on duty in Jingzhou by surprise, the rest of the Jingzhou soldiers quickly reacted and attacked with all their strength, blocking Cai Jiu and others in the city.
After all, in order to pretend to be refugees working, Cai Jiu and others naturally cannot wear any armor. In the era of cold weapons, whether or not there is armor are two completely different concepts. Under swords and guns, blood will flow when touched.
Once the skin is broken and there are too many casualties, the momentum will naturally suffer some loss and it will no longer be as fierce as before.
During the fierce fight, people from both sides continued to fall. Some died on the spot, but some were injured, but they were trampled under their feet by unknown members of their own family or opponents, and they screamed miserably. The injured ones were still struggling.
Climbing to the corner of the road, I unluckily stepped down a few times, and gradually lost my breath...
Suddenly, Cai Jiu, who was leading his team to attack the winch of the city gate, heard a huge shout erupting from the city. A battle flag with the word "文" came from the north and rushed straight towards here!
"Damn it! Damn it!"
Cai Jiu yelled and quickly ordered his men to move faster. There was some panic in his tone that could not be concealed. Wenpin's martial arts was well known in Jingzhou. If Wenpin really got here,
I am afraid that if I fail to seize the city, I will not even protect my own life!

Success or failure, now it seems that the only thing left is who can be faster!
Wenpin led his men and ran southward, his spear tilted to guide the door.
Cai Jiu danced his sword crazily and turned his head to urge his men.
Xiahou Dun in the north of the city stood under the flag of the Chinese army and beat the huge war drum himself.
The Cai family in the south of the city stood outside the gate of Xiangyang, anxiously waiting for the gate to open.
Black smoke billows.
The flames are fierce.
Howling and crying all around.
Liu Biao stood on the high platform, showing his pale and withered arms, holding up a long sword.
Liu Cong huddled under the corner, holding his knees with his frightened and helpless eyes open.
Everything seems to be in turmoil, and everything seems to be still.
The winch at the south gate of Xiangyang was finally turned, and the iron fence closing the city gate was slowly raised...
Suddenly, near the south gate of Xiangyang, both above and below the city, whether Cao Jun or Jingzhou soldiers, could not help shouting, either with despair or with ecstasy! And the Cai family outside Nancheng came to help.
, eagerly pulling at the city gate, eager to rush in at the next moment!
Cai Jiu was ecstatic and shouted: "Xiangyang! Xiangyang City has been taken! The first victory, the first victory is ours!"
Wenpin raised his arms and shouted: "Go up! Hold up the city gate!"
The fire rolled, and black smoke filled the sky. The remaining clouds rolled in the sky and seemed to be connected with the black smoke on the ground.
Cai's reinforcements rushed into the city, but were blocked by Wenpin and others at the city gate. Cai's soldiers attacked again and again, but with Wenpin's blessing, Jingzhou soldiers stood tightly in one place.
Even though Cai's soldiers fought inside with red eyes, they still didn't make much progress, and there were even signs of being pushed out of the city gate!
At this moment, the sound of horse hoofbeats was faintly heard again. Cao Hong and other Cao cavalry who were hiding in the south of Xiangyang saw the agreed signal and ran out of their hiding place and headed towards Xiangyang City with a ferocious look!
Before Wenpin could react, he suddenly heard another loud commotion in the north of the city!
Wenpin, who was usually calm and composed, finally changed his expression. After a while, increasingly loud noises and uncontrollable chaos spread in Xiangyang City...
Pang Ji, who was in charge of the defense in the north of the city gate, was killed by Han Song. Then Han Song ordered the city gate to be opened and the city surrendered.
Cao Jun poured into the city like a raging tide!
Wenpin looked up to the sky and roared, but there was nothing he could do. Liu Biao vomited blood on the balcony and died.
Xiangyang City has finally fallen...
The sun sets in the west.
The chill of the night gradually came.
Sometimes, the same news has different flavors in different places. Liu Biao's death may be the result of a series of complex interactions among the Han Dynasty, but from the perspective of the event itself, it is
There are basically no people who feel happy about Liu Biao's death, or "pleasant".
In the main hall of the Xu County Palace, the lit oil lamps drew a circle that made people feel a little warm. Although the eunuchs and maids were standing around, some in the hall and some outside the hall, Liu Xie still made Liu Xie
I felt extremely lonely and endless helpless.
Even though Liu Biao had problems of one kind or another, or Liu Biao also acted arrogantly, Liu Biao was, after all, the last member of the Han clan who held real power in the Han Dynasty!
After Liu Biao, there was no longer a prince in the world whose soldiers carried a banner with "Liu" written on it.
The emperor Liu Xie sat silently in front of the chessboard. The hall was quiet, with only the sound of occasional moves. Opposite Liu Xie, there was nothingness. Liu Xie seemed to be playing chess with himself, and also seemed to be playing against the future.
.
"I, this step... is the right one, or..."
Liu Xie murmured in a low voice, his voice too soft to be detected. He held a chess piece in his hand and did not put it down for a long time.
"Some of the things I did were right, and some... were wrong... It was inevitable, and I knew this, but no matter whether it was right or wrong, what I did was..."
Liu Xie gently dropped the chess piece on the chessboard.
"Just like in a game of chess, if you don't make a move, you lose..." Liu Xie raised his eyebrows slightly, and after a moment, he smiled bitterly, "But after you make a move, you can't change it..."
The chessboard is filled with black and white colors, but under the light of the oil lamp, some other colors seem to appear, flowing and hovering on the chessboard.
"Dong, Wang, Li, Guo, Yuan..." Liu Xie slowly picked up the bag, then pinched the last one, "Liu...hu..."
"I have never failed the world...why the whole world...has failed me..."
"Why?!"
"Why……"
Liu Xie gritted his teeth, the muscles on his cheeks twitched, and the pain in his heart was unspeakable.
As early as Dong Zhuo's death, Liu Xie had great ambitions in his heart. These ambitions came from his father and his blood. He also wanted to become the overlord of ZTE like Guangwu, so he chose to leave
Feiqian's Bingzhou came to Yuzhou because this was the land of Guangwu's Longxing. Liu Xie hoped to embark on Guangwu's road to rejuvenation from here again, but now it seems that although he has stepped on the legacy left by Guangwu
There are footprints, but the road back then has disappeared.
What's left is a land full of thorns.
Liu Xie struggled, and he fought against Cao Cao, trying to activate some people close to him to build a new Han Dynasty structure, and then he could regain control of the world and bring the Han Dynasty to normalcy, but in the end he failed and was discovered by Cao Cao...
…
Liu Xie's son died.
Cao Cao's son also died...
died.
Then both Liu Xie and Cao Cao realized that if the two of them fought, they would only gain the advantage of the other guys who were standing around and watching eagerly, so they stopped each other, with their respective wounds, and temporarily put aside their hatred. Then Cao Cao took
After moving to Jizhou, Cao Cao controlled a larger territory, but at the same time, this also meant that the power that Cao Cao originally concentrated in Yuzhou would be spread out. Even Cao Cao himself focused his main energy on Jizhou and stayed in Ye
city.
