"Mr. Yuanzhi is very talented. With this, Xiangxian city can be defended. I ask Mr. Yuanzhi to think of the common people of the city and take full control of Xiangxian city's defense. I hope Mr. Yuanzhi will not refuse."
Liu Bei's expression relaxed when he heard this. Then, he clasped his hands and said to Xu Shuyan.
"Xu Shu will not dare to go against Milord's instructions. I will do my best!"
How could Xu Shu accept Liu Bei's courtesy? He hurriedly helped him up and then continued, "However, the King of the East Sea's army might not necessarily come to this county. The vanguard might just be a cover."
"Oh? What does Mr. Yuanzhi mean? Will the King of Donghai attack the other cities first? "
Hearing Xu Shu's words, Liu Bei frowned.
"That's possible. That's why Xu Shu is not afraid of the King of Donghai coming here. I'm only afraid that he won't come to this city!"
Xu Shu said confidently. This was his true thought at this moment.
"Reporting! The scouts at the front reported that the two to three hundred thousand soldiers of the King of Donghai's army had already arrived a hundred miles outside the city. At this moment, they are converging with Zhang Liao's army! "
Before Xu Shu could finish his words, a soldier rushed over to Liu Bei and reported in a loud voice.
Just now, Xu Shu had said that he was worried that Yang Rui would not come. Unexpectedly, news of Yang Rui's army coming came. Both Liu Bei and Xu Shu were surprised when they heard the report. They then looked at each other and smiled.
"At this time, the army of the King of the East Sea has arrived. If you need to defend the city, just say the word. I will pass the order to let the soldiers know that during the defense of the city, seeing your order is like seeing my face. If not, the Venerable will be severely punished!
I will go and prepare for the defense of the city. At the same time, I will order all the soldiers to be ready to defend the city and listen to Mister's orders at any time … "
Buying people's hearts was Liu Bei's forte. Moreover, Liu Bei's greatest strength was that he would not suspect people if he did not use them. He had already tested Xu Shu earlier. At this time, he delegated authority to Xu Shu very neatly. Love ↑ go △ little ↑ say △ w

As he spoke, Liu Bei turned around to leave, showing his trust in Xu Shu. However, before Liu Bei could finish his words, Xu Shu stopped him.
"My Lord, don't be anxious. At this time, the King of the Eastern Sea's Middle Army has just arrived here. Looking at the arrangement of the cavalry in front and the infantry at the back, ninety percent of it is to first create a deterrent with the rapid arrival of the cavalry, and then the infantry will rush over to besiege the city.
At this time, the King of Dong Hai's military strength was equal to the number of guards in the city. It was not suitable to launch a siege in a hurry. There were many capable people under the King of Dong Hai's command, so they naturally knew this.
Therefore, my lord does not need to panic about defending the city. You only need to order the soldiers to deal with the situation, take turns to eat and rest, and be ready to be dispatched at any time. "

.......................................................................
As such, Liu Bei nodded and stayed behind. He continued to observe the situation outside the city with Xu Shu. He followed Xu Shu's instructions and ordered the soldiers to split into two groups. They would eat and rest normally and wait for orders at any time.
"Reporting! After the King of the East Sea's army has rested for a while, they are moving toward Xiang City. They are closing in from all directions as if to attack. "
A quarter of an hour later, the messenger returned to Liu Bei, Xu Shu, Zhang Fei, and Mi Fang and nervously reported.
"Oh? Is that so? What does Master Yuanzhi think? "
Liu Bei originally agreed with Xu Shu's point of view. He believed that the King of the East Sea's army would first set up camp before thinking about attacking. He did not expect the other party's actions to be different from what he expected.
"Milord, there is no need to worry. The King of the East Sea's army has just arrived and has not rested. I believe that the other party is just putting on a show and will not really attack.
Perhaps it is unavoidable that the King of the East Sea will challenge us to establish morale. At that time, Milord only needs to send out General Zhang Yide to fight. He will be able to suppress the King of the East Sea's spirit and break his momentum. "
When Liu Bei asked again, Xu Shu's face was still calm. He did not believe that Yang Rui would immediately launch a direct attack that would pose a threat. He had considered all kinds of situations.
When Liu Bei saw Xu Shu's calm expression and his third brother, Zhang Fei, who was also ready to fight, Liu Bei nodded his head.
The next actions of Yang Rui's army seemed to be as Xu Shu had expected. The army stopped far away from the archers' shooting range. Not long after, a cavalry emerged from the crowd and stood at the north gate.
"Liu Bei, Liu Xuande. I, the King of the East Sea, Blazing Sun, am here.
This King recognizes you as a hero and has always supported you. However, you have acted shamelessly by detaining the carriages and horses of the caravan. Today, I have come to crusade against you. I do not wish to implicate the innocent people. I hope that you will give up resistance and surrender. This King can spare you … "
Just when the defenders thought that the King of the East Sea was going to challenge them to a duel, Yang Rui unexpectedly persuaded them to surrender. This surprised everyone, including Xu Shu.
Actually, Yang Rui didn't have to say these words. On one hand, Yang Rui wanted to buy time to set up the catapults, God Armaments Sky-Piercing Crossbows, and other equipment. On the other hand, Yang Rui wanted to stand on the side of public opinion.
Liu Bei had always been known for his benevolence among the Liegeman. In contrast, Yang Rui's reputation was no less than Liu Bei's. That was why Zhang Liao's actions and Yang Rui's pressure on Liu Bei not to implicate the innocent.
While they were talking, Yang Rui's troops had gradually placed the trebuchets and the Divine Armaments Heaven Piercing Crossbows outside the attack range of the defenders on the walls. As for the trebuchets and the Divine Armaments Heaven Piercing Crossbows, their range was enough to cover the inside of the walls.
In addition, Yang Rui was able to know that Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, Xu Shu, and Mi Fang were at the north gate. In fact, he had already spread out many flying pets. He knew the situation inside the city like the back of his hand. He had also captured the figures of Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, two acquaintances.
At this time, most of the flying pets had been summoned back by Yang Rui. They were concentrated behind the troops and mounted 'aerial bombs'. They were ready to baptize Xiaxiang County.
At the same time, Yang Rui's newly subdued Imperial Patrol Guards had already entered Xiaxiang County through their escape techniques. Without the interference of the formation, a single city wall would not be able to stop the Imperial Patrol Guards' escape techniques.
Moreover, the Imperial Guards were near the north gate where Liu Bei was. They were waiting for an opportunity to deal a fatal blow to Liu Bei. Regardless of the probability of success, this was one of Yang Rui's new powerful methods.
"Fire!"
"Hu! Hu! Hu! "
"Creak! Creak! Creak! "
"Boom! Boom! Boom! "
"… …"
Following Yang Rui's order, the trebuchets and Divine Armaments Heaven Piercing Crossbows were the first to fire. Bolts and stones as thick as an arm flew toward the north gate where Liu Bei was.
