The game world respected historical facts and scenes very much. There were even all kinds of reliable miscellaneous records and unofficial histories. Therefore, in the background setting, Liu Qi's appearance and personality were very similar to his father's. He was definitely not a person without talent.
In comparison, Liu Cong seemed to be much worse. Now that Liu Qi had besieged the city and launched a psychological attack on him, Liu Cong was so scared that he became dispirited. Every now and then, he would go to see Cai Mao to ask for a plan.
Cai Mao was also very angry. The secret letter he sent to King Dong Hai had not been answered yet. He did not know if it was because Liu Qi had besieged the city before King Dong Hai could reply, or because King Dong Hai did not want to talk to him at all.
"Hmph, sister, you're just surprised. Where's Cong 'er's intelligence? Is there no way to solve this? Outside the city, Brother Ru is extremely powerful … "
Facing his frightened nephew Liu Cong, Cai Mao was even angrier. He could not help but mock him. He even blamed his sister, Lady Cai, who was Liu Biao's second wife.
What was the relationship between Liu Cong and Cai Mao? Cai Mao was Liu Cong's uncle. What he said just now was actually because he expected better from Liu Cong and because he was in a bad mood.
However, Liu Cong did not think so. The situation outside the city had almost made him collapse. After being scolded by his uncle, Cai Mao, he was very unhappy.
At this moment, Liu Qi outside the city was very proud. Hearing the thunderous cheers of his troops, Liu Qi, who was a man of striking appearance, also felt a sense of disdain for the world.
A person's mentality could easily change in an external environment where there were ups and downs. Ever since Liu Qi set out for Jiangxia, he had won almost every battle and had never suffered a defeat. Therefore, it was very normal for him to have a little momentum and confidence.
On the battlefield, this kind of confidence and momentum was also very important. And after a virtuous cycle was formed, it would be even more terrifying. At this moment, Liu Qi and his troops had reached this level of momentum and could not be easily met.
Not only the depressed defenders of Xiangyang City, but even Yang Rui's troops had to use their absolute strength or formations to suppress the enemy. Once they failed to suppress the enemy, the result would be terrifying.
Liu Qi's ambition suddenly grew to the point that he believed he could have conquered Xiangyang by himself, even though he knew that Lord Lieyang of the East Sea had played a big role in it. However, there was one thing that remained the same — one's mentality would change with the change of environment.
One's state of mind could even change to the point where one could subconsciously deny anything that had happened in the past. One could even assume that something that had never happened had happened in the past …
Under such a burning aura, Liu Qi's subordinates roared in batches for an entire night. However, most of the soldiers who had changed shifts could actually fall asleep under the loud roars. Only a few of them could not fall asleep.
The effect of mentality and momentum was very obvious during sleep and rest. The contrast was very obvious.
At the very least, most of Liu Biao's troops in Xiangyang City could not sleep because they were on tenterhooks. More importantly, the various factions in the city were still acting strangely. Their mentality was already very unstable, let alone when Liu Qi's troops were "besieged".
The next day, at dawn, Liu Qi only sent a messenger to inform Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu who were 100 miles north of Xiangyang City. Then, they immediately began to attack the city.
Xiangyang City was one of the strongest cities in the game world. Liu Qi and his troops maintained their previous confidence and momentum and were confident that they could take it down in one battle.
"Young Master Liu Qi is also not an ordinary person. He has taken after his father and even surpassed him …"
100 miles north of Xiangyang City, Jia Xu stroked his white beard and said to Zhang Xiu.
After receiving the news that Liu Qi had launched an attack on the city of Xiangyang and that Liu Qi's messenger had come to the camp to deliver the message, Jia Xu had already suggested that Zhang Xiu withdraw his troops back to Wusheng Pass. The result of his communication with the General Staff Headquarters in Luoyang was the same.
Jia Xu praised Liu Qi for shouting "besieged" the entire night and the momentum of the siege. He only said that to Zhang Xiu before leaving.
In fact, Jia Xu knew very well that this was all Liu Qi could do. If he was a little more brilliant, he might not necessarily be in this situation, but he still had a bright future ahead of him. But now …
Although Jia Xu did not participate in the core discussion regarding Liu Qi, he seemed to know Yang Rui and the others' plans like the back of his hand. He could already see Liu Qi's future.
Of course, someone like Jia Xu who could see the situation of the Three Kingdoms could more or less see the situation Liu Qi would face in the future. It was normal for Jia Xu to be able to straighten out some things more thoroughly.
"Creak! Creak! "
"Huff! Huff! Huff! "
"Bam!"
“.....”
On the battlefield of Xiangyang City, Liu Qi gave the order to start the siege. At the same time, he stopped the clamor that lasted for an entire night. There was only the creaking of the siege weapons and the sound of rocks hitting the city walls.
Liu Qi knew how tough Xiangyang City was, so he did not order his soldiers to charge at the city directly. Instead, he used the siege weapons to attack first.
Even so, the sudden silence of the battlefield was still very touching. The shock it gave people was no less than the noisy battlefield.
Liu Qi knew that he had limited siege weapons and knew the situation of Xiangyang City. Therefore, he mobilized all of them to the west gate of Xiangyang City, where the moat was the narrowest.
"Creak! Creak! "
"Huff! Huff! Huff! "
"Bam!"
“.....”
The quiet battlefield was also deliberately created by Liu Qi. In this quiet environment, the originally ear-piercing but not noisy sound of the siege weapons was highlighted, and it lasted for more than two hours.
It turned out that the defense of Xiangyang City was very strong. Even though the west gate tower had been cut off by several meters, the top had been flattened, and there were a lot of rocks piled up inside and outside the gate, it did not have much impact on the defense of Xiangyang City. Liu Qi's troops still could not enter the city.
"The King of the East Sea's troops are here!"
"The King of the East Sea's troops are attacking the city!"
“.....”
At this moment, smoke and dust rose from the north side of Xiangyang City as if a torrent was rushing in. The people on the city wall could clearly see that it was the Sea King's Army rushing toward Xiangyang City with fluttering flags.
The corner of Liu Qi's mouth curled up slightly. In fact, it was not the King of the East Sea's army. The messenger reported that Zhang Xiu's troops had retreated to Wusheng Pass. More than two hours had passed, and they were probably halfway there.
At this time, the troops flying the King of the East Sea's flag were naturally arranged by Liu Qi in advance. Moreover, his backup plan was not only to pretend to be the King of the East Sea's troops.
