Chapter 52

Liu Paopu, who received the news of the arrival of reinforcements, was completely relieved at this time. He followed Liu Xie's instructions and placed flags on Yu Chengqiang. Then he arranged for the former imperial guards brought by Liu Xie to leave the city at night, and then entered the city with drums and drums the next day, creating a illusion of more and more reinforcements in Jiangzhou City.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Wei was confused by this move. In fact, it was normal for Zhao Wei to be confused, because even some noble families did not know about this matter. For his own sake, Liu Paopao was completely handled by himself.

He did not believe in some of the prominent families in Jiangzhou City, but he did not want to start a massacre like Liu Xie, so he could only spend more time on his own. Fortunately, this kind of thing would not defeat him. Although he had few confidants, his loyalty was still available for the former imperial guards left by Liu Xie.

When Zhao Wei was hesitating whether to attack Jiangzhou City, Liu Paopu was indeed worried about himself. After all, the real guards in Jiangzhou City, plus the three thousand former imperial guards, were only six thousand. Zhao Wei's troops were four or five times that of his. If he really wanted to attack, he didn't know when he could last.

But now it is different. There are not many real reinforcements outside the city. Although there are not many, there is no problem to restrain Zhao Wei. Moreover, news of Pang Xi's great defeat and loss has been heard. Some prominent families who were hesitating before have also contributed money and strongly, as if they were swearing to resist the rebels to the death.

Seeing these people, Liu Paopao sneered in his heart. Liu Paopao didn't know about some things, but didn't want to do them. How many people in Jiangzhou City really care about Liu Xie? He didn't know? He just didn't want to hear what Liu Xie said and did.

He does all the bad things, but Liu Xie is the good one. Liu Bei is not so stupid!

Before, he ran from Xuzhou to Bashu to join Liu Xie, which was the stupidest thing he did in his life. Can he continue to do stupid things now?

After thinking about it carefully, Liu Bei felt that he was angry and he couldn't vomit.

Now he is the real lonely man! His second and third brothers were abducted from the sky, Jian Yong and Sun Qian also stayed in Chengdu, not to mention Mi Zhu, this guy was originally a businessman, and his interests with Liu Xie must be better than with him! Now he can be said to have no chance.

Liu Xie has grown up, so what opportunities does he have besides looking for other opportunities? If the two of them change their ages, maybe he can still wait slowly, but now, can he continue to wait slowly? There is no hope at all!

Since you can't see hope, why not make a fuss with Liu Xie?

Therefore, he was somewhat hesitant in his heart.

The worst thing is that he didn't even dare to test what the two brothers thought! A large part of his achievements today was because of his two sworn brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. If it weren't for them, Liu Bei would probably have been a dead bone in the tomb.

If neither of the two brothers had that kind of meaning? OK! These two are now following Liu Xie, and they don’t know how happy they are. If they have battles and achievements, will they still be willing to wander around with him? And he has always regarded himself as benevolent and righteous. Can he say that? Can he do rebellious things in front of the two righteous brothers?

In the past, he could have used the excuse of being young and cowardly Emperor of Han. Now? The more Liu Bei thought about it, the more he felt how stupid his original decision was!

But these are not important for the time being. What matters is that your life is important! Zhao Wei besieged the city, how can he do without reinforcements!

"Soldiers, our reinforcements have arrived! Zhao Wei's doomsday is not far away!"

"Oh...oh...oh..."

Liu Bei's words greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers guarding the city.

...

In Zhao Wei's military camp, Zhao Wei's two deputy generals Li Yi and Pang Le, as well as several other generals, looked at Zhao Wei with a worried look on his face, hoping that Zhao Wei would make an idea.

Li Yi said worriedly: "Lord, if you don't make any decisions at this time, you will have too late! The reinforcements heading south means that Pang Xi is really finished. Once Pang Xi finishes, the entire Brazilian county will definitely fall into the hands of Emperor Xiaoxian. If Emperor Xiaoxian directly advances eastward from Brazilian county..."

Li Yi's words made the faces of the generals present shocked. Pang Le frowned and said, "It shouldn't be so fast!"

Zhao Wei's face was not very good-looking. He looked up at Li Yi, as if he wanted to continue listening to what Li Yi said.

Li Yi sighed, "My lord should also know that the abilities around Emperor Xiaoxian are quite good. The seemingly weak military advisor, Guo Jia, did not know his name before? But as soon as he took action, Pang Xi's vanguard army suffered losses and generals. Pang Yue and Pang Qi's brothers were all killed. It can be said that they became famous in one battle. Such a person cannot see the principle of speed of troops? We are surrounded by Jiangzhou here, and the last general is worried that they have already divided their troops into Qunin, Yu Fu. Badong is our base. We can attack and defend when we retreat. If we lose these two places, we will be surrounded by them!"

Zhao Wei gritted his teeth and finally clasped his hands and said, "Retreat! Stay with the green mountains here, don't be afraid of no firewood!"

Pang Le shouted: "Lord, no! When you retreat at this time, Liu Bei will lead the army to pursue him. Guo Jia will definitely not sit idly by. If this happens, we will wait..."

Zhao Tuo said, "I'm not afraid that he won't come. If they dare to come, I can do this..."

"Lord is wise!" Pang Le laughed and said, "In this way, maybe we can still enter Jiangzhou City and directly capture Jiangzhou!"

Li Yi shook his head and said, "The last general thinks it is inappropriate to capture Jiangzhou. Just let him lose his troops and lose his generals. Taking Jiangzhou is like sitting and waiting for death!"

"Well, this statement makes sense!"

...

That night, Guo Jia and Liu Bei both received news that Zhao Wei's army had retreated. Liu Bei fought a lot of defeated battles and knew that the enemy would not pursue him. So after he breathed a sigh of relief, he ignored him. But Guo Jia was different. He directly asked Taishi Ci, Liao Hua, and Chen Daodian to pursue the enemy.

"Military advisor, don't pursue the enemy. I believe the military advisor will not know it!" Taishi Ci directly expressed his thoughts. Compared to Liao Hua, Taishi Ci was much more direct. "If the enemy ambushed in the middle of the road, what should we do? It is important to know that the rebels only had small-scale battles in Linjiang, Pingdu, and Zhixian. Even if their troops are not very complete, they cannot be easily defeated!"

Guo Jia looked at Chen Dao and Liao Hua, shook the folding fan and chuckled, "The two generals think the same way, right?"

Liao Hua smiled bitterly, but nodded. Only Chen Dao frowned, and after a while, he raised his head and said, "Military advisor, where is Your Majesty?"

Chen Dao's words made Taishi Ci and Liao Hua shudder and looked at Guo Jia one after another.

Guo Jia sighed: "For Jia's understanding of Your Majesty, if Jia expected it was not wrong. Your Majesty should have taken down Qunin at this time, and the troops advanced to Yufu, and might even divide his troops south to Linjiang, preparing to seize Zhao Wei's retreat. The three generals just imagine, can we sit back and watch at this time?"

Liao Hua whispered: "Maybe, Your Majesty is not like this?"

Taishici said at this time: "We can't afford to bet! Without saying much, we will order all the troops and chase the rebels!"

Guo Jia stopped Taishi Ci and said, "Don't be anxious. After hearing Jia finishes his words, he will go to pursue him. Zhao Wei is very likely to ambush the middle. So, Ziyi doesn't need to send a scout. You just need to do this... As long as we cooperate with Yuan Jian and Shuzhi, we can make a plan..."

Chen Dao was a little worried and said, "Military advisor, we only have 4,000 soldiers and horses, and Zhao Wei's army said at least 28,000 to 30,000, we..."

Guo Jia smiled and said, "Don't worry, Jia will go to Jiangzhou City in person to explain to the prefect Liu. At the same time, he will also let Gan Xingba cooperate with you on the water route..."

"In this way, I'm busy with military advisors, let's take the lead!"
