Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 395 The Fall of Fan City
The water gate connecting the north of Xiangyang City to Fancheng is also an important gateway for ships to enter Xiangyang City.

But since ships can directly enter the city, the north water gate of the city is naturally a very wide gate. Although there are several iron gates and fences blocking the water gate at the north water gate of Xiangyang City, if Zhu Wei really has a palm Such methods can open the iron gate fence on the water gate, and the water gate is the biggest flaw in Xiangyang City.

To be honest, even though Liu Biao thought that the water gate might be a flaw in Xiangyang's city defense, he didn't know how to strengthen the water gate's defense.

In this way, after the water gate is broken, how to rebuild the second line of defense in the city naturally becomes a lack of experience in defense.

At this time, Liu Biao blurted out his words, and his expression became a little flustered. He clenched his hands into fists, and looked a little uncontrollable. Obviously, the pressure of Zhu Wei's army on Xiangyang City had already made Liu Biao a little unbearable.

These days, Liu Biao is under a lot of psychological pressure, and many things make him very anxious.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ming. The so-called Lightning Palm Technique is too illusory. It may just be a special method among Zhu Weijun. As long as..., as long as it can prevent him from approaching, it's fine. Besides, it's just speculation now! Our army Just add some water barriers to Fanmen and make some preparations, and that's it!"

Seeing that Liu Biao had lost his mind, Kuai Liang hurriedly comforted Liu Biao, but he was not sure what kind of means Zhu Weizhen would use after taking down Fancheng, whether it was really as Liu Biao speculated that he would use the special secret weapon in the army to attack Xiangyang Watergate.

But at this moment, seeing Liu Biao's attitude, he could only say this first to appease Liu Biao's mood.

"Zirou, if Zhu Wei can break the water gate, then he can only think of retreating! Oh, could it be that he can only retreat into Yizhou, um, no, no, or retreat into Hanzhong, alas, Zirou, miss me It has been seven years since I entered Jingzhou, but I was forced to do this by this little generation, it is really..."

After listening to Kuai Liang's words, Liu Biao was still in a low mood. Perhaps it was because his son Liu Qi's life or death was unknown, which made Liu Biao feel a little bit more. At the same time, Liu Biao also felt his own exhaustion from the heart, so at this moment he actually thought about it. retreated.

Hearing Liu Biao's words, Kuai Liang couldn't help frowning, he lost his fighting spirit before the final decisive battle with Zhu Wei's army, this is not a good state.

The coach has no fighting spirit, so how can the people below still fight? Now Xiangyang City is still regarded as a strong city in the north of the Yangtze River. How can they think of retreating without even fighting a battle?

"Duke Ming, this statement is wrong. If Duke Ming loses Jingzhou, he will have nowhere to retreat! Liu Zhang of Yizhou has established a solid foundation. I heard that although he has no ambition, he is also a filial person. Duke Ming has written a letter of impeachment before. His father, Liu Yan, once provoked the people of Yizhou to rebel against Liu Zhang. He was afraid that Liu Zhang would have resentment towards Duke Ming. If Duke Ming went to Yizhou, he would be in danger! Zhang Lu in Hanzhong is just a fool For generations, according to the theory of gods and ghosts, it will not last long to create a place controlled by an evil sect like Wu Dou Mi Dao. Besides, with the reputation of Duke Ming, if he goes to Hanzhong, he will be feared by Zhang Lu! And Cao Cao in the north, and Duke Ming are originally Discord, does Ming Gong also want to be controlled by Cao Cao like the young emperor? As for Yuan Shu in Huainan, if he raised the flag of rebellion, how could Ming Gong's Han clan members be rebellious? At that time, Zhu Wei's slander will be confirmed!"

Kuai Liang looked at Liu Biao's posture, and after a few thoughts in his mind, he began to deliberately scare Liu Biao. Anyway, he blocked Liu Biao's escape route, so that Liu Biao could make up his mind to defend Xiangyang.

Otherwise, Liu Biao could pat his ass and leave. How could a Jingzhou gentry like him move his family to another place?
The Kuai family was originally one of the four major families in Jingzhou. As the Kuai family assisted Liu Biao to stabilize Jingzhou, it can be regarded as the second largest family in Jingzhou after the Cai family. The important ministers around Liu Biao.

In this way, under the leadership of their two brothers, the Kuai family naturally gained more and more powerful status in Jingzhou, and naturally owned a large amount of land and family business in Jingzhou. These things are not easy to move away.

It can be said that the entire family property of the Kuai family was born on Jingzhou. Once they left the land of Jingzhou, the Kuai family would become an ordinary family.

At that time, I am afraid that the Kuai clan will also decline.

Therefore, Kuai Liang must persuade Liu Biao to maintain his determination to stick to Xiangyang at this moment. Only in this way can the Kuai clan continue to thrive and thrive in Jingzhou by relying on the big tree.

Of course, what Kuai Liang said at this moment is not completely unreasonable. For Liu Biao today, there are only Liu Zhang in Yizhou, Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, Cao Cao in Gunzhou, and Yuan Shu in Huainan around Jingzhou. defected.

But in Kuai Liang's analysis, they obviously couldn't accept Liu Biao, or Liu Biao couldn't vote.

Needless to say, Zhang Lu, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shu, who originally belonged to the clan of the Han Dynasty and who were most likely to accept Liu Biao, Yizhou Liu Zhang, happened to be the target that Liu Biao had tried to pursue with all his heart, so even if Liu Zhang was cowardly, It is also impossible to take a foreign enemy who once opposed his father and wanted to seek his own territory when he first succeeded to the throne, and take it into his own territory.

Therefore, Liu Biao was stunned when he heard the words, and thought about Kuai Liang's words in his heart. He found that he really had nowhere to retreat, could it really be that he could only stick to Xiangyang.

Liu Biao glanced at Kuai Liang, then glanced at the gate tower and sword pavilion again, suddenly slapped the table in front of him, and shouted, "Okay, since there is no way out, then we can only fight to the death with that Zhuzi in Xiangyang, how can it be?" Let this Zhuzi become famous easily! If the gentlemen have no intention of fighting with me in Xiangyang, you can leave now, and I will never blame you!"

"We will accompany Ming Gong to defend Xiangyang to the death!"

After listening to Liu Biao's words, Kuai Liang and the others naturally followed suit to show their loyalty, and for a while they seemed to be on the same side.

But at this time, someone suddenly came from Xiangyang City to the city gate, and quickly ran to the sword pavilion of the gate tower, "Report! Report to the lord, Fancheng has fallen, Fancheng has fallen!"

"what!"

Liu Biao was taken aback when he heard the words, and then turned his gaze to Kuai Liang. Although he and Kuai Liang had already guessed that Zhu Wei might have divided his troops to fight Fancheng, they really did not expect that Fancheng would be silently captured in such a short period of time. laid down.

Liu Biao just focused on stabilizing his mind and morale just now, but he was shocked by this news...
