Chapter 58: Ding Yuan Makes His Move! (Seeking Recommendation Tickets)

  Too lazy to smoke, so I decided to implement a more update task plan to whip myself into working hard on writing, so I need the cooperation of book friends.

  The plan is as follows: currently, the total collection is 2451 and the total recommendation votes are 1762. If by this time tomorrow, the collection increases by 150, I will add one more chapter. If the recommendation votes increase by 120 or more, I will also add one more chapter. This can be cumulative. If the collection and recommendation votes double, I will also double the additional chapters, which can also be cumulative. Whether or not to add more chapters depends on you book friends!

  And if there are more than five update tickets, add one more, double the fun, and decide to fight together. Book friends, are you willing to fight with Dian Yan together?

  …………………

  A captured general of the Upper Di was rescued because Lü Bu fled from his last battle, and a small general named Liu Tu became the hero of the Upper Di Castle in a dramatic turn of events.

  At this time, the Taishou Liu Dai sat upright in the main seat of the Taishou Mansion in Shangyong City, his face turning blue and purple, lost in deep thought.

  He didn't understand why Lü Bu could have won by just looking at him, but suddenly gave up at the last moment.

  Although Liu Dai's intelligence is still acceptable, with his level, he cannot think everything through in a short period of time, so he is always puzzled and feels that there must be something crucial here that makes him torture himself alone.

  At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed in and shouted loudly, interrupting his train of thought.

  "Report!"

  Liu Dai emerged from his contemplation and looked at the person in front of him, who was actually his trusted aide, the leader of the vanguard team in Xiangyang City. His expression calm, he asked, "What is it?"

  The captain of the guard knelt on one knee, his face slightly pale and uneasy, saying: "Report to Governor Taishou, that Lü Bu did not escape back to Xinye after his defeat, but...but..."

  The captain of the vanguard team, Mi You, continued speaking.

  Liu Dai felt that the riddle was about to be solved, so he ignored his own embarrassment and suddenly stood up from his seat and said: "And what is it?"

  "Zhilü escaped to a place about five kilometers north of Shangyong, on the way to Hanzhong!"

  "What did you say? Lü Bu didn't escape back to Xin Ye, but instead went north!"

  Liu Dai's expression suddenly changed, and then seemed to remember something, saying: "So is there any change in the direction of XinYe?"

  The leader of the scout team looked even more flustered and said: "In the direction of XinYe, according to the news from the scouts, a cavalry is rapidly moving out of CaiYangGuang City. Judging by their intention, they are obviously going to attack our ShangYong City!"

  Upon hearing this, Liu Dai's buttocks heavily sat down, his eyes lost their luster, and he muttered to himself: "This is going to block our army's path!"

  Looking at the listless and dispirited commander, the leader of the scouts' team looked pale. With his intelligence, although he was not a general material, he could also think clearly about what was going on. He understood that Upper Yang City was finished, and even these high-ranking generals would all become Ding Yuan's prisoners!

  At this moment, Cai Yang is on the road to Shangyong City, where a large army is marching. The commander's flag is raised high, with a single character "Ding" written on it, and behind it is the military advisor general flag, with a single character "Zhang" written on it. This army has 200 soldiers and two generals. It is indeed Ding Yuan and Zhang Liao's army. They are going to attack Shangyong City this time, take the victory fruit, and cooperate with Lv Bu in the north of Shangyong City to capture all the defenders of Shangyong City, making Ding Yuan's power soar. Moreover, there is another very important role, which is to let Ding Yuan gain sufficient combat experience and upgrade to become a powerful second-level general!

  At this moment, Ding Yuan's heart was also somewhat excited. His current strength had been severely weakened, with a martial arts value of only 16 points, not even comparable to that of the worst dragon suit general. His intelligence value was also very low. If it were a normal battle, he wouldn't be able to defeat even one general. But now it was different. Lü Bu had already reduced the strength of Chang'an City to its lowest point. In this way, Ding Yuan could easily defeat all ten generals of Chang'an City.

  And just in case, there is also this invincible general, Liao, sitting firmly on this seat!

  Zhang Liao alone could only be considered a first-rate fierce general, but if he had soldiers to assist him, Zhang Liao would be even more formidable than the war god Lü Bu, for his command would be like an art, and would be the nightmare of all enemies!

  Don't forget, Zhang Liao's military uniform, the morale of the soldiers will never be low, and it is more likely to activate passive skills to reach a super morale state, making the soldiers under his command like they have taken stimulants, with excellent combat effectiveness and greatly increased defensive capabilities!

  Moreover, in this expedition, Zhang Liao commanded the flexible and remote attacking troops of archers, so his combat effectiveness will reach an extremely terrifying level!

  Of course, Zhang Liao was just taking precautions, the real purpose is still to let Ding Yuan come out and fight, in this way it can make Ding Yuan level up at the fastest speed, this is also the main reason why Lv Bu, who is as proud as him, is willing to lose.

  Promoted to secondary general, Ding Yuan can summon Lü Bu in the real world, allowing him to show off his prowess and unify the entire Shengxiao Valley!

  Thinking that the Three Kingdoms space and the real world are about to have a double harvest, completing the same great achievements, Ding Yuan's heart is naturally overjoyed and excited!

  At this moment, the whole city of Xiangyang is filled with gloomy clouds. The ten generals are all in a state of disability, the morale of the soldiers is low, and more importantly, there are only over 130 soldiers left. Where is the strength to deal with the new enemy who has come to attack? More importantly, the retreat route from Xiangyang to Hanzhong has been blocked by Lü Bu, so these people will not be able to escape and will all become prisoners of Ding Yuan, the governor of XinYe!

  Other generals are not important, but as a member of the Han royal family, General Liu Dai has many ambitions and intends to revive the Han dynasty. He is deeply grieved in his heart, and the four household generals also have a sense of loyalty and duty to die for their lord.

  "Gentlemen, the city of Changyang has reached its most critical moment. To be honest, I myself have no hope of winning in my heart, but we cannot give up and must fight on. I have already contacted General He Jin, who will send a strong general to support us. Therefore, please ask all of you to delay for as long as possible!"

  Liu Dai put away the sadness in his heart and said in a low voice.

  "Promise!"

  The four generals of the Liu family shouted loudly, while the other five generals had different ideas in their minds.

  Liu Dai didn't mind, now he could only try his best to hold on, although he knew that the ten of them would be completely captured, and General He Jin wouldn't dare to let the Han Zhong general come to rescue. Because there were only fifteen generals in Han Zhong, with He Jin's cautious personality, it was unlikely that he would send troops from Han Zhong to reinforce. The most likely possibility was that he would dispatch troops from Hongnong City to attack Xinye, intending to let Ding Yuan give up the occupation of Shangyong City!

  But how is this possible? Hongnong City is too far from Xinye, and by the time He Jin's reinforcements arrive, Xiangyang will have already been occupied by Ding Yuan.

  And Hongnong City doesn't have a strong general, whether the attack on Xinye will be successful or not is still uncertain!

  Liu Dai's thoughts would naturally not be announced to the main general, and at this time, the various ambitions and ideals in his heart had already begun to loosen up in the face of cruel reality.

  "Alas! My younger brother is indeed wise. I was laughably self-deluded, thinking I could serve in the central court and turn back the tide of chaos. If I were to be demoted and become a provincial governor instead, it would likely not be so!"

  Liu Dai sighed inwardly and then perked up, thinking about how to delay things as much as possible.

  After some thought, Liu Dai had a plan. He intended to send out other generals to fight and delay the enemy while he and his four household generals focused on restoring the morale of their soldiers, as well as their own vitality and internal energy within the city.
