two days later Outside Jianning City, camps are now standing, with flags fluttering, and the Nanman army is gathered in front of Jianning in an endless and mighty formation.
Countless soldiers in armor walked around the camp from time to time.
In contrast.
On the Jianning city wall, although there were also flags fluttering and the west wind blowing, the flags were fluttering and whistling in the wind, but the number of people was much different compared to that.
The soldiers standing on the city wall looked at the endless camps outside the city.
Although there was fear in their eyes, they still stood upright on the edge of the city wall with spears in their hands, watching with vigilance.
There were also many soldiers walking back and forth, carrying stones and other tools for defending the city from the city to the city wall, preparing to defend the city.
The passage in front of the tower.
Liu Cong, who was fully clothed, put one hand on his sword and the other on the edge of the city wall, staring at the enemy camp not far away.
Before nightfall the day before yesterday, he had already led 20,000 troops to Jianning City and had only been preparing for one day.
However, early this morning, he heard news of the enemy's arrival.
Moreover, when the Nanman soldiers arrived, they did not immediately organize their troops to attack, but instead set up camp three miles away.
Looking at the endless enemy camps.
Liu Cong also frowned.
Faced with such a situation, no one can relax.
"Gong Yan, how many of the people in the city and the surrounding areas have migrated?"
Liu Cong turned to look at a young scribe and asked.
Seeing the young scribe, facing the mighty barbarian soldiers, he only frowned, without any fear in his eyes, and nodded in agreement.
And that young scribe was Jiang Wan and Jiang Gongyan, the prefect of Jianning.
"Back to the general, except for some fallen places, and most of them have been moved to the rear yesterday, the rest can now be moved away at once," Jiang Wan said.
Liu Cong nodded and said: "In this case, let's prepare for the final move.
The sooner the better.
Once the enemy attacks, there will be no time to think too much."
"promise" Jiang Wan did not refute.
This was also a fact.
If the barbarians launched an attack on the city, they would not have time to move the people.
They could only move all the people out before the barbarians attacked the city.
As for Jianning and the surrounding areas, except for the two armies, there is no human habitation anymore.
This is the plan to strengthen the walls and clear the country.
"Generals Yong Kai, Zhu Bao, and Gaoding offered the land of Zangda County and Yuexi County as guides for the Southern Barbarians to seize Jianning, and the people of the two counties were unable to escape; Wang and his wife, the prefect of Yongchang, and Lu Kai, the meritorious officer, knew about the situation in Jianning, organized the recruitment of two thousand soldiers and horses, and asked people to deliver letters.
They are coming to Jianning and will arrive tonight at the latest," Jiang Wan said.
Yongkai, after Yongchi, the Marquis of Shifang, was the former prefect of Jianning.
Due to improper management and greed, he often exploited the people and made the people of Jianning miserable.
Liu Biao also demoted him to Zangda County and asked Jiang Wan to take over Jianning and take office.
Although he was appointed as the governor of Jianning, he did not expect that he would directly rebel after the Nanman army rose up.
This was just Liu Biao's kindness.
If Liu Qi had done what he did, he would have killed him directly, and there would have been no trouble, and the land of the two counties would have been handed over to him in vain.
Liu Cong nodded.
He also knew about this.
If Yong Kai, Zhu Bao, and Gao Ding hadn't given up the land of the two counties without even resisting, the Southern Barbarian army would not have reached Jianning so quickly. , at least it can delay it for a day or two.
A fierce look flashed in his eyes, and he said: "When the three of them made such a decision, they had already decided their outcome.
They are just clowns.
It is nothing to worry about.
Our army's opponent is the Barbarian King Meng Huo. " Hear the words.
Jiang Wan also fell silent.

After all, it was useless to say anything now.
Everything had happened.
Even if he wanted to kill the three traitors Yong Kai, Zhu Bao, and Gao Ding alive, the primary enemy he had to face now was still Meng Huo, the barbarian king.
"Gong Yan, you should also move with the last group of people.
On the way, let the Yongchang prefect and the meritorious officers lead the two thousand soldiers and horses to escort the people away.
There is no need to come for support."
Liu Cong's voice changed. said.
The words fell.
"The general thinks that I am someone who is afraid of death."
Jiang Wan stared at Liu Cong and frowned.
Liu Cong didn't pay attention, shook his head, pointed to the barbarian camp in the distance, and said: "Gong Yan thinks that with the strength of our army, how long can we guard Jianning?"
"this" "Gong Yan is a talented person and should not be buried here.
It is enough for me and 20,000 soldiers to be here," Liu Cong said firmly.
After coming to Jianning, he also discussed with Jiang Wan how to defend the city.
He also knew that Jiang Wan's talent was beyond his comparison.
He was a man of great knowledge and did not want Jiang Wan to be compromised here.
"My subordinate is the Grand Administrator of Jianning" Jiang Wan also expressed his attitude in one sentence, with a firm look on his face.
Looking at Jiang Wan's expression.
Liu Cong was silent for a moment and said: "It's up to you.
I estimate that the Nanman army will launch an attack on the city soon.
Before that, arrange everything.
Remember to send an order to the Yongchang Prefect and ask him to lead his troops to escort them all the way."
There is no need for the people who have moved to Jianning to come to Jianning because there is no need."
Finished.
He ignored Jiang Wan again, turned around, held his sword in his hand, and walked away, preparing to leave the city wall.
He also needed to arrange various matters and prepare to resist the Nanman army from attacking the city.
"promise" Jiang Wan bowed to Liu Cong's back.
He also understood the reason why Liu Cong did not let Yongchang Prefect Wang and his wife and meritorious Cao Lu Kai lead their troops to support him.
Just like Liu Cong's last words, it was because there was no need.
Yongchang only had 800 soldiers, and the remaining 1,200 troops and horses were also improvised.
If two thousand soldiers and horses are thrown in, it can be said that not a single wave will rise.
Then why continue to let them come to support?
It is better to escort the people who are already on the road to leave, rather than come here to die.
It can be said that it is the same whether it is supported or not, so there is no need for it.
As for what will happen if he stays in Jianning, he won't think about it, and he doesn't want to think about it.
He just needs to do the things in front of him well, and that will be enough. immediately.
Jiang Wan also turned around and left.
He also needed to arrange the last things, send away the last remaining people, and send Liu Cong's order to the Yongchang prefect Wang and his wife.
As for the soldiers on the city wall, they didn't have any thoughts about Liu Cong and Jiang Wan leaving.
Except for standing upright by the city wall with spears in their hands, staring at the barbarian camp in the distance, the other soldiers were busy and had their own responsibilities.
The war is about to begin.
There was no time for them to relax
