If you ask Liu Bei why he killed Liu Pi, there are other reasons, besides Liu Pi offended Zhang Xiu, there are other reasons. One of them is that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. Although Liu Pi welcomed Liu Bei to Yuzhou, Liu Pi had a great influence in Yuzhou. Many Yellow Turban bandits in Yuzhou were instigating Liu Pi to make a comeback and take back Yuzhou. Even if Liu Pi didn't want to, his subordinates might force him to do so. Just like Cai Mao and Zhang Yun offered Jingzhou back then, Cao Cao didn't want to know that Liu Biao's youngest son could not have the possibility of rebellion at all, but in order to prevent problems, he still disappeared after being appointed as the governor of Qingzhou before. Liu Bei was even more vicious. He treated Liu Biao's eldest son Liu Qi, relying on Liu Qi's reputation to get the support of Jingzhou, and he was appointed as the governor of Jingzhou, but Liu Qi died the next year!

The second reason why Liu Bei killed Liu Pi was the issue of military power. If Liu Pi handed over the military power in his hands as soon as he welcomed Liu Bei into Yuzhou, then there was nothing wrong. Liu Bei could even give Liu Pi a civil servant and a prefect Dangdang, but Liu Pi was greedy for power and was unwilling to teach the military power in his hands. If you don’t teach, there would be nothing as long as you are obedient. However, this time Liu Pi’s private dispatch of the army really touched Liu Bei’s bottom line. You can hide it from Liu Bei and directly dispatched the army to ambush the Western Liang Iron Cavalry. You may be able to ambush him Liu Bei. You must know that when Liu Bei went to ambush the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry this time, there were not many soldiers and horses around him, and only one personal guard camp. If Liu Pi had evil thoughts at that time, Liu Bei would be finished.

How could Liu Bei keep such a disobedient subordinate? This time Liu Pi happened to come across an idea and gave Liu Bei an excuse to kill Liu Pi, ambush friendly forces to seize credit, and shoot black guns at friendly forces. No one would say much more if he killed Liu Pi, because what he feared most on the battlefield was that such people attacked their robes for military merits and were most intolerant of the war generals.

Liu Bei also considered the possible rebellion of Liu Pi. Liao Hua in front of him was Liu Bei's method. He did not arrange for the new generals in Liu Bei's army to command the troops in Yuzhou, but directly promoted Liao Hua from the troops in Yuzhou.

Liu Bei, the commander of Liao Hua, saw that he dared to ambush two thousand heavy armored cavalry with five thousand horses, and almost destroyed all of them. This shows that this person is a good general. Seeing Liao Hua's gratitude to him, Liu Bei knew that this person would not betray him. He directly made him the chief general in the army from a five thousand general. This kind of promotion is grateful.

After a long night of talks, Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei once again became good friends. Pang Tong also made a plan at night, which was to make a plan. Xu Shu played such a plan just to make Zhang Xiu's army and Liu Bei's army turn against each other. If it was the best to fight. Even if it couldn't fight, the two armies might part ways. Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei made such an illusion, allowing Zhang Xiu's army to first depart, and finally attacked Shouchun, caught the defenders of Shouchun off guard and directly took down the Shouchun city gate.

Almost, almost this plan was successful. Fortunately, Xu Shu had another mobile power in his hand, Zhao Yun's 200 white horse Congyi. With these 200 white horses Congyi, he discovered that the surprise attack of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry also successfully relied on the sniping of the white horse Congyi, causing the speed of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to slow down, which made Shouchun close the city gate and put down the suspension bridge, but the industrial area could not be saved. Xu Shu could only endure the pain and burn the entire industrial area to ashes.

"Military advisor, I'll let Baima Congyi go up to the city wall to help defend the city!" Zhao Yun looked at Xu Shu's battle hard. After all, the garrison troops under Xu Shu were all second-tier units, while Liu Beiyong's siege army was first-tier units. Moreover, Xu Shu had only 10,000 people, while the enemy troops at the foot of the mountain had tens of thousands of people. If it weren't for the city wall of Shouchun, it would have been finished long ago.

"No, General Zilong, you and your white horses go down to rest from the righteous. I need to use you in a more useful place!" Xu Shu would not let the cavalry guard the city, and it has not reached that level yet. So it is impossible to use heavy armored cavalry for the time being, and with this heavy armored cavalry, Xu Shu can do other things. "By the way, General Zilong, you go down and let the people help me burn golden water! Maybe it will be used later!"

"Well. I understand!" Zhao Yun nodded and got down the city wall. The golden water was not made of water made of gold, but made of rice fields, as well as some poisonous mist of arsenic and water. The most important thing about this thing is to be used on arrows. Such arrows are simply simple versions of biological and chemical weapons. As long as they hit people, if they are not treated well, they may die, because there are many bacteria on the rice fields. Once they enter the human body, an infection may occur. Xu Shu didn't want to use this, but he was forced to do so.

"If you take this Shouchun, Lu Bu's army will be finished in Yangzhou!" Liu Bei looked at this important town and thought to himself that as long as he captured this place, Liu Bei would be able to occupy the two states of Yuyang. After the difficulties, he would destroy Lu Bu with Zhang Xiu, Sun Ce, Wancheng, Jiangdong. Then there would be no one in the entire Central Plains who could stop him. Just wait for the end of the battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. No matter who wins, Liu Bei could occupy the Central Plains and march into Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, and Qingzhou. At that time, he really had the cause of dominance.

"Soldiers, cheer up your spirits, pick up your weapons, and see if you see it before, that is Shouchun, which was where Yuan Shu was the second emperor dreamed of being an emperor. As long as we take it down, we will win. The lord will definitely reward merits and get promoted and get rich. You must know that there are millions of people in Shouchun! There are hundreds of thousands of people, and it is not a problem for one person to come to join two or three!" This kind of morale-boosting method is the only way to boost morale in the Yuzhou Yellow Turban Army. This is the first time that Liao Hua was encouraged by his commander as the chief general. They were originally the Yellow Turban Army. Liao Hua said that this was already very gentle. At least he would marry someone. Originally, the Yellow Turban Army broke the city and was directly burned, killed, robbed, and those women were ruined. How could they marry them home! But Liu Bei had a good reputation. This time he came here to make the decision for the people. If he burned, killed, robbed, his reputation would be really over!

"Take Shouchun and get promoted and make money!" Liao Hua shouted loudly and started to attack the city wall with his subordinates.

"Soldiers, we only have this kind of Shouchun City. If Shouchun City is broken, then we will have nothing. Imagine your parents in the city, imagine your children and wives in the city. Once the city is broken, you can imagine what kind of treatment they will encounter. It will definitely be a family and a person. Don't have any fantasies about the army under the city. I tell you that they are from Yuzhou and what Yuzhou was like before. You won't know! That's a bunch of Yellow Turban thieves, but they have changed their heads and faces. Don't you know the cruelty of the Yellow Turban thieves!" Xu Shu naturally used the Yellow Turban Army to make a fuss. If these new guards had a high morale, they had to let them know the importance of defending the land.

"I'm the only one to kill me. Save the whole family!" Xu Shu roared, and the soldiers of the garrison in the city also began to be excited. Those who pulled the bows, those who pulled the bows, and those who carried the falling rocks and rolled the wood were also busy.

"Shoot, shoot arrows!" Under Xu Shu's order, the garrisons shot the bows and arrows in their hands towards the enemy below like rain. There was a moat outside Shouchun. This was not the small ditche outside Guangzhou City. This was a moat with a width of more than ten meters. The depth must be at least seven or eight meters deep, and it also attracted living water. There were suspension bridges on the moat. If you could not fill the moat, you would not even think of attacking Shouchun and taking Shouchun. Therefore, the first wave of Liu Bei's army was used to fill the moat. Every soldier in Yuzhou held one or two bags, and the bags were filled with soil, throwing these mud bags away.

Go to the moat to fill them up. In order to fill these moats quickly, they put their weapons aside and transported them hard. The people were not running fast. The back and forth and the sandbags were also very heavy, which made the speed even more unfast. Once they ran slowly, they became targets. With just a few round trips, the moat was less than one-tenth, and Liao Hua's Yuzhou Yellow Turban Army lost thousands of people. If this continues, the moat will be filled, and his Yuzhou Yellow Turban Army will no longer be completed. This is not what Liao Hua wants. He became the leader of the Yuzhou Yellow Turban Army. You can't let him be the commander of the Yuzhou Yellow Turban Army!

So Liao Hua stood in front of Liu Bei very pitifully. Liu Bei also knew that the losses of the Yuzhou army were a bit huge. With a wave of his hand, he wanted Zhang Fei's Qingzhou army to replace Liao Hua's Yuzhou Yellow Turban Army. However, whether it was the Qingzhou army or the Yuzhou Yellow Turban Army, the things they encountered were the same.

The city of Shouchun was built very well by Yuan Shu, the daydreaming person. The city walls were all convex. The advantage of this was that most of his arrows could cover the moat. Liu Mang also added some things to it, such as the extended archery platform, which made the coverage of the arrows wider. Therefore, the Qingzhou Army was shot back when he came on the field.

Zhang Fei was really furious when he was on the side of the moat. Because such a river could not be crossed and could not attack Shouchun, he could only watch his subordinates being shot to death by archers without any power to fight back. Liu Bei had not thought of using archers to fight back, but when he was at a high place and you were at a location, how much force could his arrows have even if they flew to the city wall? And if someone was shot at the acceleration of gravity, you would have to be killed or injured.

If he continues to fight like this, even if he fills the moat, he will have to lose one army among the Yellow Turban Army in Yuzhou and the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou. In addition, he will attack the city walls, and the casualties may be even worse. After fighting this Shouchun, Liu Bei will become the commander of the barely-armed commander.

"Duke Xuande, let me do it!" Zhang Xiu looked at Liu Bei's embarrassment and smiled at Liu Bei and took the burden.

"General Zhang Xiu? How can you fill the moat under your command?!" Zhang Xiu's command is full of heavy armored cavalry. Once you dismount, you will have nearly 100 kilograms of heavy armor on your body, and it is impossible to run. With the sandbag, it may be difficult to walk back and forth. How can you fill the moat?

"Don't worry! Xuande Gong, Xiu naturally has a clever plan!" Zhang Xiu smiled at Liu Bei. He was a glutton. He had been using Liu Bei for so long, so he should do things. Moreover, Liu Bei could not take Shouchun, so Zhang Xiu was also unlucky. Once Lu Bu's army had a breath, he might have to pay a greater price. If Liu Bei helped Liu Bei take Shouchun as soon as possible, this Shouchun city is the base camp of Liu Mang's army. I heard that Lu Bu transported most of the resources and materials in Lujiang to this Shouchun. If he attacked, the money and food would be less!

"Hu Cheer, come and show off to Duke Xuande!" Zhang Xiu shouted loudly to his deputy general and confidant Hu Cheer.

"Yes! Lord! Brothers, it's time for you to show that we are not eating vain~" Hu Cheer loudly didn't care about the feelings of others. Before, Liu Bei's army had always complained that Zhang Xiu's army was just eating vain, and just taking military food and money would not work. You see, we did the siege, we did the siege, we did the siege, and we did the siege, and we did the siege to take down the city, and we did the siege to prevent the enemy from counterattacking. What did the Western Liang Iron Cavalry do? Just cared about guns, do you think this Liu Bei's army can balance it!

"Qiang tribe barbarian!" Zhang Fei cursed angrily, but fortunately the voice was not loud and he was not heard by Hu Cheer, otherwise the two of them would have crossed their eyes again.

"Boom boom boom!" Zhang Xiu's command of Xiliang Iron Cavalry finally started to move. Hu Cheer led a total of 10,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry troops to start slowly leaving the camp with war horses from the camp.

"Hmm?! General Zhang Xiu, you are?!" Liu Bei was a little confused because these Western Liang cavalry did not dismount, but put sandbags on the horse's back.

"Duke Xuande looks at it, Xiu will even deceive Duke Xuande!" Zhang Xiu was a little proud. This is a master skill of their Xiliang Iron Cavalry. Don't think that heavy armored cavalry can't conquer the city and territories. That's because heavy armored cavalry is too poor to conquer the city and territories. A cavalry needs to train for a long time to train, but in Xiliang there are many ethnic groups, there are many Han people, and there are even more war horses. Basically, one outside the border can't ride and shoot, so most of them are cavalry units. There are few infantrymen, but there are also battles and cities to attack. Naturally, these Xiliang Iron Cavalry have their own methods of siege, and they also have their own methods to destroy him when dealing with such moats.

"Boom boom boom boom!" After everyone had a sandbag, Hu Cheer waved his double hammers in his hand, and the entire Xiliang Iron Cavalry moved. This huge steel giant beast began to exert his horror that was different from ordinary people. The roar of cavalry running made Xu Shu feel shock when he stood on the city wall.

Ten thousand cavalry rushed towards the guard city, and Xu Shu frowned. What is this? I'm not alive? I want to use cavalry to raid the city wall? Or do I want to cross the moat with my cavalry? It's more than ten meters away. What kind of war horses can be picked up? I'm really unable to think about it and ready to jump into the river together. Xu Shu felt a little uneasy in his heart.

How could Hu Cheer's Xiliang Iron Cavalry jump into the river to commit suicide? They were all thinking about when to open the Shouchun city gate and let them rob a person of fullness and robbing their brother! How could they commit suicide so easily?

The vanguard of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry left only three hundred steps away from the moat! Two hundred steps, one hundred steps, fifty steps, and thirty steps, the cavalry's speed was very fast, and the distance of thirty steps was extremely fast. As these heavy armored cavalry were about to rush into the river.

Among the cavalry center Hu Cheer roared, "Flange, change formation, swirl!" The cavalry of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry seemed to have spirits, and the war horses were part of their bodies in their hands. The Xiliang Iron Cavalry, who was about to rush into the moat, suddenly turned around. The entire Xiliang Iron Cavalry brigade, led by the vanguard, charged directly against the river bank to turning around along the river bank. At the moment of their detour, one sandbag after another was thrown into the moat. Ten thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry was ten thousand sandbags, and they filled a lot of moats in one go.

"Arrow, shoot arrow!" Xu Shu was anxious. If this continued, the moat of Shouchun could withstand several times like this. Xu Shu wanted to drive away these Western Liang cavalry with arrows, but it was that easy.

"Haha!" Hu Cheer looked at Xu Shu on the city wall with disdain. The Xiliang Iron Cavalry was a heavy armored cavalry, and the one who was most afraid of was the arrows. Although these arrow rains were dense, they could not hurt much when they fell on the heavy armor. Only a few were unlucky. The war horses were shot to death and then fell off the horse. The cavalry behind would not stop, so the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, which had fallen into the horse, were all crushed to death by the war horses.

"Duke Xuande, how about me, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry!" Zhang Xiu looked at Liu Bei very proudly, and also looked at the generals under Liu Bei's command. If the moat was filled, he would not bother to listen to these generals saying that their Xiliang Iron Cavalry was just a waste of time.

"Haha, General Yangwu is really a good method, a good method!" Liu Bei was really happy. Don't say that Zhang Xiu's method is really useful. A large group of heavy-armored cavalry rushed over and turned back. Just throw the sandbags from the war horses down. It would be no problem to go to the moat after a while. In just a while, it was enough to catch up with the contribution of the Qingzhou Army and the Yuzhou Army.

If Liu Bei sent his Qingzhou Army and Yuzhou Army to fill it out, he would be completely consuming his lives.

"At least ten rounds, the Shouchun moat can be filled all!" Zhang Xiu said with great confidence. When his uncle, Li Jue, Guo Si and others attacked Chang'an, this method was used to fill the moat that was said to be tens of meters deep. Within half a day, the reason why Zhang Xiu could make Liu Biao and him make an alliance instead of directly ordering was also the reason. Jingzhou has many waterways, so the city walls will not be too high. Once the moat is filled, there will basically be no dangerous place.

"You can't go on like this!" Xu Shu looked at the moat in front of him. If this continues, how can Shouchun defend the moat? It's a great natural danger to Shouchun. When Cao Cao attacked Yuan Shu, Shouchun was still relying on the four dams. The four dams have not been repaired now, so it is impossible to flood Shouchun. This moat is the biggest obstacle to blocking the siege.

Now that the moat is filled, Xu Shu will face Liu Bei's elite army, relying on the ten thousand garrison troops in the city? How could it be impossible to defend it?

"The person comes to push those things out for me!" Xu Shu gritted his teeth and shouted loudly.

"Military advisor? Are you going to use that thing now? But now!" Deng Yi next to him was very puzzled. How long has it been? This is Liu Bei's first day of siege, so he needs to use that thing? He is preparing to use it when the city wall is unable to defend it!

"You don't have to wait for the time now. Should you wait until the moat is filled and Shouchun is broken?" Xu Shu didn't want to use that thing. After all, the arrows are limited, and using him with high intensity may cause him to be damaged as soon as possible, but now he has to use it.

"Okay, I understand!" Deng Yi went down directly, and with his help, a series of wooden objects were pulled onto the city wall.

Twelve city walls in Shouchun are lined up side by side.

"What is that?!" Liu Beijun below could not have noticed such a big noise on the city wall, and they were all looking at that strangely.

"Bed crossbow?!" Zhang Xiu came from Xiliang and was located on the border, naturally known about bed crossbow.

"Bed crossbow?" Liu Bei was stunned by the side. "This is the magical bed crossbow that was passed down in Liu Mang's army?!"

"That's the crossbow!" Pang Tong's eyes narrowed, because he was the first person among Liu Bei's army to suffer from a crossbow. The famous Huainan dish is still vivid in my mind.

"So what about the bed crossbow! Do you think I'll be afraid of taking this thing out?" Zhang Xiu came from Xiliang naturally knew that the shocking power of the bed crossbow was stronger than the actual lethality, but it was just a shooting function to scare those foreign races. It would be useless to face him, Zhang Xiu.

"Roar over, rush over, fill the moat!" Hu Cheer had the same idea.

The Western Liang Iron Cavalry was getting closer and closer. Standing on the city wall, Xu Shu could even see the expression on the leader's face with the telescope in his hand.

"Win the string!" Xu Shu also stood up!
