UGB Chapter 808
Chapter 808
Chapter 808
Like a farce, Fancheng was easily returned to Yuan Jun's hands.
But Lu Meng, who took over Fancheng, was not happy at all.
After all, Fancheng is still silent in this stench.
Even if it was ventilated around, it did not dissipate immediately.
As a result, Lu Meng also lost his appetite.
His complexion was also slightly pale.
Deng Ai, who escaped, never showed up again.
It seems that this Fancheng was dumped to Lu Meng.
Lu Meng was also in great pain.
Now it can only stay here for the great cause.
Guan Yu also rushed to the city of Xiangyang after leading his troops in a hurry for several days.
Once here, everyone is ordered to launch a fierce attack.
However, the guards in Fancheng were not as bad as the intelligence said, they were actively defending.
Guan Yu was also a little confused.
Why is Xiangyang so difficult to attack now?
This is a bit different from its intelligence, isn't it that there is only one sick Pang Tong in the city now?
So why is Xiangyang's military spirit still so stable.
This doesn't make sense, because Guan Yu also has a bad premonition.
Maybe I was caught in the trap, I am afraid that Yuan Jun tricked him out of Fancheng.
Then the target of its attack must be the land of Fancheng.
Thinking of this, Guan Yu felt a chill in his heart.
And at this moment, news came that Fancheng was lost.
This also coincided with Guan Yu's conjecture.
Guan Yu also had a headache for a while.
Thinking about this time, my army has no way out now. If they are attacking Xiangyang, they will be surrounded by Yuan Jun sooner or later.
Immediately let the army that has not set up the camp retreat.
Now the base camp Fancheng is also lost, and the military supplies and food are also lost.
The current army has also lost the power to fight for a long time.
Withdrawing the troops back to Shu is the best plan.
So the army rushed to Huimapo.
Hope to reach Maicheng in a short time.
However, Guan Yu's idea was already in Pang Tong's plan.
Pang Tong knew that after Guan Yu learned that Fancheng had fallen, he would definitely not attack Xiangyang.
Therefore, no generals were arranged to help around Xiangyang.
Thinking about it, I just need to put on a posture of active resistance, which is enough to frighten Guan Yu and make him retreat.
And Pang Tong arranged for the army to intercept Guan Yu's only way early.
This move is not only to defeat Guan Yu, but also to capture him.
However, Guan Yu is also extremely unfortunate.
Encountered several sieges on the way.
If his son Guan Ping hadn't tried his best to protect him, he might have died on the way before reaching Maicheng.
And after experiencing all kinds of hardships, he also arrived in Maicheng with a small number of wounded soldiers.
And this city of Mai is well-known, and it was an extremely important military location during the Warring States Period.
It is the gateway to the south of Dangyang.
It is adjacent to the Juhe River on the Han River, and it is an important place for Xishu to attack Jingzhou.
After Guan Yu lost Fancheng, he now relies on this place for repairs.
In order to retreat, Shuzhong is plotting.
But how could Pang Tong let Guan Yu go back so easily.
Seeing that his ambush had not achieved great results, he didn't know who to send to go at this moment.
Lu Meng, who was in Fancheng, was about to be driven crazy by this place, so he asked people to apply for the battle many times.
It was also inconvenient for Pang Tong to refuse, so he changed a new person from Xiangyang to garrison Fancheng first.
It also allowed Lu Meng to escape the clutches of Fancheng's poisonous gas.
When Lu Meng received the appointment, he was also in a happy mood.
Let alone let Lu Meng go to fight Maicheng now, even if he is asked to go to Chengdu now, he will go there with a small boat.
After all, this Fancheng is too tortured.
Immediately, he entrusted his confidants to wait here for the handover.
He also hurriedly led his troops to Maicheng.
Now Lu Meng also does not want to stay in this stinking Fancheng for a long time.
The soldiers who followed him out of the city also had this intention.
Therefore, after leaving the city, everyone fled here like a gust of wind.
Even the speed of infantry must catch up with cavalry.
Its marching speed is also like lightning.
But Guan Yu hadn't gained a firm foothold in Maicheng when he ushered in the army led by Lu Meng again.
Although there are only a few thousand people, Guan Yu can't fight against them now.
After all, his escape all the way also caused the morale of his army to be low.
If they took the initiative to attack this time, the number of victories would only be half.
Guan Yu didn't want to take any risks, so he could only stay in the city until his morale recovered.
But Lu Meng's desire to win was extremely urgent.
Although Deng Ai said that he would give him the merit of Fancheng, after all, it was not obtained by his own ability.
Even if it will be counted as his own military exploits in the future, he will be worthy of it.
You can stop everyone's mouth, but you can't soothe your own heart.
Therefore, in this battle, I have to fight a beautiful victory without relying on others.
But I have no more than a thousand people, if I attack the city directly, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get the effect.
But this wheat city has a fatal weakness, which was left over from its Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period.
That's even the saying in the proverb, when a donkey grinds east, a wheat city breaks itself.
Lu Meng didn't think too much about other things, so he took the donkey city and mill city on both sides into his own hands.
All of a sudden, the two cities were at odds with each other, and the city of Mai was crushed tightly.
Lu Meng was not in a hurry to attack the city at the moment. Although he urgently needed a victory, he couldn't make fun of the lives of his soldiers.
Therefore, the best way now is to suppress this wheat city, and then wait and see what happens.
Based on his understanding of Guan Yu, he would definitely not allow himself to be on top of him.
It will definitely show his feet.
That's when it's time to make your own move.
And Guan Yu also felt extremely uncomfortable when he took the second city, just as Lu Meng thought.
But at this moment, Guan Yu has also lost his vigor, and he has nothing to do with Lu Meng.
Originally, Guan Yu was still thinking that since Lu Meng chased after him in such a hurry, he would definitely take the initiative to attack the city.
Who would have thought that it turned out to be a siege tactic.
This made Guan Yu extremely uncomfortable.
The pressure brought to him by the current Lvmo Ercheng does not need to be as small as siege.
Even if the enemy army is close at hand, it is difficult for his own army to take a good rest.
No one knew how the war would start, and Guan Yu's army was under tremendous pressure for a while.
Seeing that even if Lu Meng didn't come to attack the city, he could still bring such pressure to himself.
Guan Yu didn't know how to solve it for a while.
Even if he asks Shuzhong for support now, it may be too late.
After all, his own troops will definitely not be as fast as Yuan Jun's support.
If I procrastinate for too long, I am afraid that the pressure on myself will increase.
Immediately let the whole army pack up their armaments and prepare to escape at night.
This trip must be done secretly, so that Lu Meng cannot see through.
Otherwise, it will be very troublesome.
Guan Yu also wanted to play a golden cicada to escape his shell, and wanted to leave this place without anyone noticing.
But it's so easy there.
Although Lu Meng surrounded Guan Yu, he did not relax his vigilance at all.
It also sent a number of spies to observe Guan Yu's every move.
