The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

However, he still had no expression on his face, trying to maintain a calm posture.

"Don't panic, generals, everything can be carried out according to the agreed plan!"

Because in order to strengthen the defense in Xiangyang City, Sun Quan shrank all the soldiers and horses on guard outside.

So Liu Ke didn't encounter any obstacles on the way, and he came to the city of Xiangyang smoothly.

This is Liu Ke's first close observation of Xiangyang.

I saw that the city wall was three miles long, and it was completely black. It was all made of stones from Xianshan Mountain, exuding a breathtaking deterrent force.

Moreover, the moat in front of me is diverted from the Han River, so the excavation is extremely wide, a full 150 meters.

Now the suspension bridges outside the four city gates are all raised, and this wide moat is like an insurmountable moat, blocking Liu Ke from outside the city.

As the largest Jingzhou government in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Xiangyang has a very important geographical location.

To the northeast, you can enter Wan and Luo, and in the northwest, you can go to Guanzhong, and go downstream to Jiangxia and Huaiyang, and go upstream to go directly to Xishu.

It can be said that it is the thoroughfare of nine provinces in a practical sense. If you can get it, you can instantly level the world.

And because of such an important geographical location, Xiangyang also became the place of the Fourth World War.

Whether it was the Yellow Turban turmoil that year or the subsequent battle between Liu Biao and Sun's father and son, they all revolved around Xiangyang.

Sun Ce, in particular, paid almost two generations of effort to take advantage of Liu Biao's death from illness, and the young master Liu Cong listened to the slander and won Xiangyang.

Otherwise, I am afraid that even if they get this city, they will suffer heavy losses and be devastated.

Therefore, this battle, whether it is for Liu Ke, who is committed to sweeping the world, or Sun Quan, who inherits his father and brother's foundation and prepares to carry it forward, is a crucial battle.

The outcome of the war is currently unpredictable.

The only thing we can know is that due to the strong city, Liu Ke, who is the attacking side, must have suffered heavy losses.

Therefore, when Liu Ke saw the magnificence of Xiangyang City, he immediately changed his mind.

For capturing such a fortified city, it is by no means impossible to fight quickly, but the losses are bound to be huge.

Then according to Zhuge Liang's previous plan, the best strategy is to encircle but not attack, and take the opportunity to conquer the surrounding area.

Therefore, Liu Ke was not in a hurry, and simply set up camp outside the city first, and slowly figured it out.

The first thousand and 680 five chapters of small punishment

Liu Ke's move alarmed Sun Quan instantly.

When the other party heard that Liu Ke had arrived, instead of taking the initiative to attack, they set up camp outside the city.

Such behavior reveals an indescribable abnormality.

Some generals even suggested to take advantage of the opportunity when the opponent set up camp to take the initiative to attack, and they would definitely be able to annihilate them in one fell swoop.

But of course the cautious Sun Quan would not agree, he decided to go and check it out himself.

Therefore, Sun Quan also came to the top of the city under the guidance of his subordinates.

When he saw the army outside the city with his own eyes, he was immediately stunned.

I saw that the army was neat and tidy, although they were camping, but there was no chaos at all, but revealed a trace of indescribable deterrent force.

Therefore, Sun Quan had to be thankful that he did not act hastily, otherwise he would not be able to get good results.

In this way, the soldiers in Xiangyang City could only watch Liu Ke set up the camp in the open space outside the city.

And not only on one side, but on all three sides with large troops stationed.

The only remaining north, because it is close to the Han River, there is still a navy docked on the shore, which is also ready.

"Inspector, look at Liu Ke's posture, he is going to surround our army to death!"

Zhou Yu saw through the opponent's plan in an instant, and pointed it out directly.

Sun Quan nodded solemnly, approved the other party's words, and at the same time involuntarily stretched out his hand to support the parapet in front of him.

It seems that only by touching it with his own hands and feeling the hardness from the city wall, Sun Quan will have confidence in his heart.

Their actions on the top of the city also alarmed Liu Ke.

Accompanied by several people, Liu Ke came to the bank of the moat under the city with only ten riders.

Because the moat is too wide, it is impossible for the arrows at the top of the city to threaten Lu Bu, so Liu Ke is so relieved.

He yelled, "Zhongmou, I haven't seen you for a long time, you've grown up so much!"

Liu Ke had seen Dong Zhuo by Sun Jian's side when they were discussing Dong Zhuo together.

At that time, Sun Quan was still a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was even patted and killed by Liu Kelai.

So even if he holds the power of Jingzhou now, he still feels a little timid after seeing Liu Ke.

He couldn't help taking a deep breath, and finally said: "Liu Ke, back then you were also the hero who led the army to defeat Dong Zhuo.

Why did you offend me, Jing Xiang, for no reason today? "

Liu Kewenyan couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Zhongmou, Zhongmou, are you still that childish child? It was your elder brother who invaded Wuguan, and I personally raised the army to punish him.
