Feng Chu's advice to Liu Bei was good. Zhang Xiu, who was also far away in Wancheng, was slowly fooled by Feng Chu. Although Jia Xu, who was beside Zhang Xiu, had seen it, he had become lonely and speechless since he surrendered to Cao last time. It was his idea, which also led to Aunt Zhang Xiu being talked about her life ideals by Cao, which was also unrelated to Jia Xu. So in order not to be too resentful to Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu now won't say anything even if he sees it!

Just as Liu Paopu and Feng Chu were in high spirits and preparing to do a big fight for a better future, good news came! Guan Yu lost Shouchun! Within one day, all the city defenses in the entire Shouchun City were completely lost!

"Second brother, how is that possible!" Liu Paopu was stunned. His second brother Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang, was not an ordinary person. Not to mention his martial arts, there were not many people in the world who could beat Guan Yu, not to mention Guan Yu's one move to kill a person who was even stronger than Guan Yu! Although Guan Yu was very strong in martial arts, he was not much higher than Zhang Fei. However, Guan Yu was handsome in Liu Paopu's mind. Guan Yu could stand alone. This can be seen from Liu Paopu that Guan Yu was the chief general. On the original trajectory, Guan Yu was even the chief minister of Jingzhou. Although he lost Jingzhou in the end, it was undeniable that Guan Yu was very strong in commanding troops!

A military general is not scary, just fear that a military general is educated! No matter how strong a person is, as Xiang Yu said, he is only a thousand enemy, and a person who truly knows how to command military forces is the real enemy of ten thousand people. Guan Yu, who has always held the Spring and Autumn Period and studied military tactics, is such an enemy of ten thousand people.

Guan Yu had 10,000 troops under his command. These 10,000 soldiers were all elite Qingzhou soldiers. In addition, Shouchun, a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, no matter how hard it is to fight, it cannot be lost in one day! You must know that Wancheng, which is also a major city, Liu Mang, the King of Shu, resisted the attack of Sun Ce's army by 100,000 troops. Now the attacking party is Lu Bu's army. How many troops can Lu Bu send to attack Shouchun! Ten thousand or twenty thousand?

"General Guan, where are the people now?" Pang Tong frowned. Even if he had 30,000 soldiers and horses under his command, he would not be able to break the city within one day. Pang Tong had already counted all the troops under Liu Mang, including more than 10,000 naval troops, three thousand city management troops, and three thousand black chess troops. Pang Tong also considered the recruitment order of Hefei. At most, he would add 10,000 troops to him, which would be only 30,000!

Thirty thousand people fought a major city guarded by 10,000 elite troops. Even if they were lost, they should have to last for ten days and half a month! Even a pig could protect it. There was nothing in Shouchun, military rations, weapons and even Pang Tong nailed Lu Bu's army like a nail to Shouchun. He also allocated almost all the arrows in the army to Guan Yu to defend the city! But now the city is lost!

"The second general is on his way back to the army. The 10,000 troops did not bring much food and grass, so the speed is very slow!" The messenger gasped and explained to Pang Tong and Liu Paopao.

"Ten thousand army?" Guan Yu brought a total of 10,000 people, and now he still has 10,000 people. What does this mean? It means that Guan Yu was not destroyed at all, but a city he gave up. Otherwise, how could there be a 10,000 army!

"Nonshu, Nonshu! Why did this second brother become like this!" Liu Paopuo was a little angry. If he had been worried about Guan Yu's safety because the city of Shouchun was broken, then he would be really angry now. The plan given by Pang Tong was to nail it to Shouchun tightly and use Shouchun as a bridgehead to prepare for the next sweep of Yangzhou. This is also the preparation for the Lu Bu army to defend along the Yingshang Huai River!

But now Guan Yu gave up Shouchun without fighting. What was he thinking? Pang Tong didn't say anything, and he didn't understand what Guan Yu was thinking! Although he received Liu Bei's attention and became a military advisor, Liu Bei even respected himself and called himself a gentleman! But Pang Tong knew that he was still an outsider compared to Guan Yu, so he couldn't explicitly say that Guan Yu was not good!

Fortunately, just as both of them were in deep thought in the hall, there was a movement outside the hall, "Second General, wait, wait!" The guards rushed forward to stop the visitor, but the visitor pushed apart. The leader was a green robe and red-faced general. The black beard on his face was dragged to his chest, and a big knife in his hand was held aside.

"Second brother?" Liu Paopu and Feng Chu, who were sitting at the table, hurriedly stood up. The person who came was either Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang who were discussing just now!

"Brother!" Guan Yu immediately knelt down when he saw Liu Paopuo. "Brother, Guan Yu was entrusted by his elder brother to lose this Shouchun City! Please punish him." Guan Yu knelt down in front of Liu Paopuo with a look of shame.

"The last general and the generals failed the lord's entrusted, so they asked the lord to punish him!" The generals standing behind Guan Yu saw that the lord Guan Yu knelt down. They had no reason to stand, so they knelt down one by one and asked for punishment at Liu Paopao.

"Second brother, second brother! It's good to be back, and there are people when they come back!" Liu Paopu is worthy of being able to win the world in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. He has studied the psychology of using people very thoroughly. According to the general lord, he will be very angry even if he doesn't say anything. However, Liu Paopu did not ask Shouchun why he lost it from the beginning! Instead, he cared about Guan Yu's safety at the beginning, and this care was used very well!

"Get up quickly and get up quickly, let your brother have a good look!" Liu Paopuo is the sissiest friend of Taoyuan, but this kind of sissy is the most capable of making tough guys like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei feel a sense of warmth and softness, because this is a kind of concern that other brothers do not have.

"Brother!" Liu Paopuo's more concerned, the more he felt bitter in his heart, and he was also very ashamed.

"Second General, what happened to Shouchun?" Liu Bei didn't speak, so naturally Pang Tong came to be the inquirer. Liu Bei interrupted and asked Yun Chang to rest for a while before talking. It was very tired all the way! Although Liu Bei said this, his eyes were always staring at Guan Yu. He wanted to know more urgently what Shouchun was like.

"Brother! Let Guan Yu talk first!" Guan Yu stood up with the help of Liu Paopuo. His army was brought back by Guan Yu. Guan Yu wanted to discuss matters with his elder brother first, so he left the army early and rode back to Runan first.

"Brother. This time it was not that Yu was willing to leave Shouchun. But this Shouchun City could not be defended!" Guan Yu's mouth was full of bitterness. Since Guan Yu followed his elder brother Liu Bei, this war of wars of no less than a hundred times have been fought. In the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the eighteen princes attacked Dong Zhuo, and there was no sign of Guan Yu Guan Yunchang. The reason why Guan Yu was called the Martial Saint is that Guan Yu not only knows martial arts but also knows military skills! So after learning about Hefei

When Shu King Liu Mang sent troops to Shouchun to attack Shouchun, Guan Yu was not worried at all. He had 10,000 elite Qingzhou soldiers under his command, and even had the tall city wall of the important town of Shouchun. It can be said that Guan Yu even disdained the King of Shu King Liu Mang. Guan Yu had been understanding Liu Mang. He had also seen Liu Mang in Kaiyang City. Guan Yu had seen Liu Mang. Liu Mang almost vomited blood, but Guan Yu had a good impression of Liu Mang!

Later, Lu Bu's army left Xuzhou, and the battle at Wancheng at the foot of Bagong Mountain pushed Liu Mang to the front. It can be said that His Highness, the King of Shu, is also a soldier-knowing person! But what if it is this? With Shouchun, without a 50,000 army, don't want to break Shouchun City!

Guarding the city is nothing more than preparing military food and materials, and all the fallen wood-rolling stones are ready! There are 30,000 stones in Shouchun City, which is enough for ten thousand troops to use for a year, and the arrows are supported! There are 200,000 arrows in the city, and these are allocated by the military advisor Pang Tong to Liu Bei! The fallen wood-rolling stones are even more uncountable! With the military supplies, the rest are all men and horses! Guan Yu's Qingzhou soldiers are also elite!

These former Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army were adapted from, even if they encountered Lao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry, they would dare to charge back, so their combat effectiveness was amazing. Just as Guan Yu was always preparing to wait for the arrival of His Highness of Shu King, Liu Mang's vanguard troops arrived!

As soon as the vanguard set up a formation outside the city, Guan Yu laughed. Is this Shu King exaggerating? Haven’t fought a war before? How many people did Liu Mang bring? It made people laugh. He brought the two battalions of the City Management Army and the Black Chess Army. Even if the City Management Army and the Black Chess Army have expanded their troops, the total number is only 10,000 people. Do you use 10,000 people to attack another city defended by the 10,000 troops? This is joking!

Originally, Guan Yu thought it was a fraud because Liu Mang should have 30,000 people, but now there are only 10,000 people, where are the others going? However, the information sent by the scout was that the 12,000 naval troops of Gan Ning under Liu Mang were directly taken to Lujiang County! Guan Yu was really relieved now. This Shu King was definitely a ignorant of military affairs. I am afraid that the battles he fought before were helped by the generals under Lu Bu’s army, and finally brought his name!

Guan Yu has seen too many things that are not worthy of his name among those gentry!

Liu Mang had only ten thousand people under his command, among which the Black Chess Army was still heavily armored infantry. The heavy armor on them was not the alloy armor worn by the city management army, but real iron products. Those heavy armors were more than 100 kilograms. Isn’t it a joke to wear these ladders to climb up the city wall! What kind of ladder can hold on!

So Guan Yu was very calm about watching Liu Mangjun's joke, but he couldn't laugh after a while! Because Liu Mang's troops stopped five hundred steps away from the city wall, the distance was exactly where the arrows shot on the city wall could not shoot!

At this time, a golden armored general emerged from the city management army, followed by a veteran in armor. This was Liu Mang and his proud assistant Huang Zhong. What did Liu Mang do before he came to the army? Of course he persuaded surrender! Liu Mang was very rude. He told Guan Yu and his Qingzhou soldiers on the city to give them half an hour to consider, either withdraw the troops now or just wait to be beaten away by himself.

Liu Mang's words really made Guan Yu happy. If he didn't understand military affairs, he wouldn't say anything. Now he dared to speak wildly! Guan Yu had already made up his mind. After waiting for less than 10,000 people to attack the city, he pulled out his troops to fight outside Shouchun. He wanted to teach His Highness the King of Shu a lesson! The battle was not what he fought like. Guan Yu politely used a giant five-stone bow that pulled Manxuan to tell Liu Mang his answer.

"I'm not comfortable to lift up!" Liu Mang looked at the red-faced Guan Gong on the city wall with a hint of anger. The reason why he called out so politely was because Guan Gong was a man with high evaluation in both the late Han Dynasty and in history! This person is loyal and righteous, and has high martial arts skills, and is very popular with everyone. People who have no business to respect Guan Gong's loyalty and righteousness. People who have no business to worship Guan Erye's clergyman, the God of Martial Wealth!

You are polite to Liu Mang and Guan Yu, Guan Yu doesn’t want it, then forget it! Let’s talk with the facts! A bunch of people came from behind the city management army and the black chess army. These people were not soldiers but a lot of craftsmen. Some of them were transporting food and grass and taking care of their families! These people were the people who settled in Shouchun in the future. Liu Mang brought them all at once, because he was determined to win this Shouchun and decided to fight!

There are piles of good things in the things that these craftsmen help transport, that is, a derivative version of the crossbow, the crossbow!

To put it bluntly, it is a catapult. This catapult is not an ordinary catapult that uses dozens of people to force human power. The catapult has small arm strength and the heavy objects that are thrown are also small, and the distance is not far!

The one Liu Mang now uses gears, lever principles, mechanisms, and even metal springs.

The original trenchers were a group of people who used human power to press down the stones, but they threw the stones onto the city wall with these human powers! Such trenchers have sometimes large power and sometimes small power, and can only shoot a hundred steps, and the weight of the heavy object is definitely not more than 100 kilograms, and the accuracy is still tenth. If you want to shoot a person, it depends entirely on the character. If you have good character, you will naturally have a good harvest. If you have bad character, that is infinite deviation!

But it is different to use gears now. Just shake the handle below the catapult and press the roller and gear bowstrings deeply for him. As long as the arm can hold it up, even half a ton of rocks can be shot out, and his range has been greatly increased. Within three hundred steps, you can throw a half ton of rocks, within five hundred steps, and within seven hundred steps, you can throw a hundred kilograms of rocks, and now you can throw a hundred kilograms of rocks, then Guan Erye in Shouchun is ready to accept the impact of the stones!

More than 10,000 craftsmen, plus the family and relatives of these craftsmen and the people who migrated with them, there were nearly 50,000 people, with many people and great power, and big stones filled with crossbows!

At Liu Mang's order, the crossbows began to roar, and all the huge stones of hundreds of kilograms were placed in the throwing basket and smashed into Shouchun City. This month in Hefei was made by craftsmen day and night. There were 50 crossbows here. There were fifty big stones in Shouchun City Wall in one breath, and those were 300 kilograms of big stones. These big stones were placed on the projectile platform and threw them in the air. They fell according to gravity, and fell on people, whether they were heavy armor or giant shields, just two words torn apart! Some of them were hit directly, and they died even more miserable and were smashed into meat pie! Not to mention people! Even the city wall was very uncomfortable. The huge stones hit on it and smashed the wall bricks on Shouchun City to splash, and big pits formed!

"What is this!" Guan Yu was really confused! Five hundred steps away from this attack, a huge rock suddenly drew a parabola from mid-air and fell towards the direction where Guan Erye was.

"General, be careful!" The guard next to him rushed towards Guan Erye and pushed Guan Erye out. The guard was directly smashed into a meat pie by falling rocks, and there was no way out. Such a scene happened on every side of the city wall.
Chapter completed!
