Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 643 Xiaopingjin

Sizhou.

Under Tongguan.

"My lord, there is a message from General Zhang Liao!" After a day of siege, just as Li Xiang was discussing the military situation with Yue Fei, Wang Meng and others, a messenger suddenly broke in.

The messenger had just entered the big tent when he lost his footing and fell to the ground. Looking at his embarrassed appearance, Li Xiang knew that this person must have traveled day and night and was overworked.

"What happened!" An ominous premonition came, but Li Xiang forcibly calmed down and asked the soldier.

"My lord, Xiao Pinglu has fallen, and General Zhang Liao is sticking to Mengjin, and I am here to ask the lord for help!" While speaking, the messenger took out Zhang Liao's autographed letter from Li Xiang and handed it to Li Xiang.

Hearing this, all the generals in the big tent were shocked.Xiaopingjin lost, this is definitely not a good thing.Fortunately, Mengjin Pass is still there, so things have turned around.

For Li Xiang, Xiaopingjin and Mengjin are not only the northern gateway of Luoyang, but also the key to contacting the division.

In the land of Luoyang, although there are eight gates to protect each other, once these eight gates fall into the hands of the enemy, it will be a huge constraint for our own side.Once Baguan is gone, the connection between Luoyang and other places will be cut off in an instant, just like the loss of Xiaopingjin today, which will seriously affect the communication between the two places.

Even with Hulao Pass heavily under attack, if Mengjin Pass is lost again, Si Bing Erdi will be directly divided into two parts.

"Come on, send him down to rest first!" Li Xiang pointed at the tired-looking messenger while opening the letter in his hand, and said to Dian Wei.

In Zhang Liao's letter, although the contents were not much, it also described in detail what happened.

That night, Cao Generals Cao Gui and Cao Shen descended from the sky like magic soldiers, and the army of water and land cooperated to attack Xiaopingjin, and the defenders in Xiaopingjin were caught off guard in an instant.

Not only that, on the one hand, Cao GUI and Cao Shen ordered the two brothers Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan to attack openly, and on the other hand, the fierce general Cao Ning and Yuan Shaojun's general Jiao Ying secretly entered the city among the soldiers.

Because no one in Xiaopingjin could match Cao Ning and Jiao Ying, the two peerless peak-level figures, the battle between Cao Ning and Jiao Ying completely collapsed when they climbed the city wall.

The two peerless peak-level figures completely let go of their hands to attack. The casualties of the soldiers guarding the pass increased rapidly.

Xiaopingjin's defenders Xu Huang, Pei Renji, Pei Yuanshao, and Pei Yuanfu fought desperately, but the difference in strength was too great.Xu Huang was the only one who managed to escape with injuries, while Pei Renji, Pei Yuanshao, and Pei Yuanfu all broke out, even though they were brothers and father and son attributes, but they all died on the spot.

Of the [-] soldiers in charge of guarding Xiaopingjin, [-] died in battle, and [-] were captured.

Afterwards, Cao GUI and Cao Shen wanted to repeat the same plan and rushed to Mengjin Pass, but fortunately, after Xu Huang fled, regardless of his own injuries, he flew past Mengjin Pass on a flying horse, which made Zhang Liao ready.

In the end, not only did Cao GUI and Cao Shen fail to capture Mengjin Pass, but they also fell into Zhang Liao's tricks and lost more than a thousand soldiers. Even Jiao Ying's brother, Jiao Chu, was captured by Zhang Liao's lieutenant general, who was able to shoot well. Li Zongtang of bow and arrow shot and killed on the spot.

Afterwards, Cao GUI believed that the Xiaopingjin Ferry had been lost, and the defenders in Mengjin City must be terrified. At this time, if they go to surrender at this time, they will surely succeed.Therefore, lobbyists were sent to persuade Zhang Liao to surrender.

However, Zhang Liao was also one of Li Xiang's earliest generals, one of the veterans who started his career, and he was already a diehard faction. Naturally, he would not be persuaded so easily, and directly killed the lobbyist with a single sword. The head was sent back to Cao GUI.

At this time, Xiahoudun came ruthlessly and forced the two thousand soldiers captured in Xiaopingjin to attack the city.However, for Meng Jin's safety, Zhang Liao could only choose to kill him in this situation.

Even though these people were his own people before, Zhang Liao still coldly gave the order to release arrows. Whether it was these captured soldiers or the Cao Yuan coalition army, as long as they dared to approach Mengjin Pass, they would all be shot and killed on the spot.

"Interesting, Shui Jun?" Li Xiang said expressionlessly while handing Zhang Liao's letter to Yue Fei, Wang Meng and others to read.

"My lord, in the north, except for my lord, only Liu Xuande in the Qingzhou Plain has a navy!" Wang Meng said with some headaches.

The fall of Xiaopingjin this time actually involved the princes of Qingzhou. Now, things are even more complicated.

"Liu Xuande's navy team helped Cao Cao and Yuan Shao to attack Xiaopingjin. It's such a big news that I didn't receive any news before. Mao Xiang, should you rectify your floating water house!" Li Xiang turned his head to look Said to Mao Xiang, who was on the side, with a flat expression on the surface.

"My lord, this subordinate is guilty of dereliction of duty!" As soon as Li Xiang said this, Mao Xiang was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground.

"Dereliction of duty? Guilty?" Li Xiang whispered softly, not knowing what else to think.

However, Mao Xiang was so frightened that he didn't dare to move. When he knelt down, his head was lowered even lower.

Mao Xiang knelt there, and Li Xiang didn't answer him for the time being. Some things need to be explained.Moreover, the Floating House grew stronger these years, and Mao Xiang became more and more powerful. Li Xiang just took the opportunity to beat him, so as to save him from drifting away one day.

After all, over the years, Li Xiang has gotten used to using Mao Xiang, and beating him will save Li Xiang from attacking him one day.

"By the way, what's the situation in Qingzhou?" After a little thought, Li Xiang suddenly thought.Before, under the lure of Li Xiang, Dou Jiande had already sent troops to Liu Bei.

This Dou Jiande, at any rate, also got many thunder generals to join in the balance of these two times, so he won't be defeated by that big-eared thief so soon!

"My lord, this is the news I just received. I wanted to hand it over to the lord later!" Mao Xiang took out a letter and said cautiously.

"It's really interesting that Liu Xuande and Guo Wei have teamed up!" Li Xiang said in surprise.

However, this also explains why Liu Bei can free up his hands to mobilize the navy to support Yuan and Cao. With Guo Wei on the side to help, Dou Jiande will naturally not be an opponent when the two princes of Qingzhou deal with the remaining one.

Now, Dou Jiande has already shrunk his soldiers and horses, not to mention sending troops to attack Liu Xuande on his own initiative, and is ready to defend the last territory to the death.

As for the dispatch of Liu Bei's navy this time, in fact, Mao Xiang can't be blamed for this incident.The surprise attack on Xiaopingjin was planned by Cui Hao, Yuan Shao's top strategist, and the measures Cui Hao should take are naturally impeccable.
