When Wang Can led the army to Shangyong County, Liu Bei continued to approach Wancheng.
But the closer he got to Wancheng, the more troops Zhang Xiu had and the stronger his resistance became.
Even when Liu Bei led his army on the road, soldiers under Zhang Xiu would suddenly come out to harass and attack, or when passing a certain village, a large army would come out of the village.
The continuous attacks caused Liu Bei to suffer a lot.
Seeing that the distance to Wancheng is getting closer and closer, the resistance is getting bigger and bigger, making it difficult to reach Wancheng in one step.
When Liu Bei was most annoyed, Wang Can led his soldiers to Shangyong.
This time, Wang Can did not lead his soldiers into Shangyong County, but camped directly outside the city.
After all, the battlefield is not in Shangyong County, and there is no use entering the county.
In the end, the army stayed in Shangyong County for two days and had to continue on its way.
In fact, Wang Can was planning to rest in Shangyong County for some time, but the situation did not allow him to stay in Shangyong County, so he could only move forward.
The army marched eastward and arrived at Fangling County, then crossed the Han River and stopped at Fuxian County.
Fuxian County was established in the 26th year of Qin Shihuang's reign and is subordinate to Nanyang County.
This is already Zhang Xiu's territory.
Wang Can led his army to stop outside the county seat of Fuxian County.
Before he sent troops to attack Fuxian County, the county magistrate of Fuxian County had already surrendered directly to the city and surrendered to Wang Can.
A small county town the size of a sesame seed with few people and few troops was unable to resist an army of more than 60,000 people led by Wang Can.
In addition, Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei were at war, and all the troops in Nanyang County were mobilized to resist Liu Bei.
Fuxian County was also mobilized by Zhang Xiu, making its strength even weaker, so it simply surrendered.
Wang Can took Fuxian County and did not stop.
After he removed the county magistrate and county magistrate of Fuxian County, he allowed them to serve as officials in Shu, and then replaced them with his own people to control Fuxian County.
In this way, Wang Can continued to advance.
Compared to Liu Bei, Wang Can's speed is much faster.
However, it was because Liu Bei held back all Zhang Xiu's army that he gave Wang Can the possibility of an unimpeded journey.
Along the way, Zhang Xiu's troops were resisting Liu Bei, so Wang Can encountered little resistance and left Fuxian County, then crossed the Xiangjiang River and finally stopped in Deng County.
Wang Can led his troops to occupy Deng County, but did not enter the city and stationed outside the city.
At this time, Wang Can was very close to Wancheng.
Nanyang County, Wancheng.
In the hall of the spacious and quaint Sheriff's Mansion.
Zhang Xiu sat directly above, holding news about Liu Bei's army in his left hand, and news about Wang Can's army in his right hand.
Both armies have approached Wancheng and have shown obvious motives.
At this time, Zhang Xiu was no longer the spear king of the North.
In the past, Zhang Xiu was full of energy and sharpness, and no one dared to stop him.
Today, Zhang Xiu has passed his thirties and has three short strands of beard under his chin.
However, Zhang Xiu, who is in his prime, has a weathered look on his temples, which makes people feel sad.
In the face of Liu Bei and his army pressing forward step by step, although Zhang Xiu came up with a way to send troops to intercept and harass on the road, in the end he could only delay Liu Bei's army on its way and was unable to completely defeat Liu Bei and save Nanyang County.
For more than a month, Zhang Xiu stayed up late every day and had no time to fall asleep.
The mountains of military affairs and news made Zhang Xiu very hard.
Days like this are already a torture.
Zhang Xiu took a deep breath, glanced at the generals in the hall, and said slowly: "Wang Can and Liu Bei led their armies to attack at the same time.
Wancheng is in danger.
Lei Xu, what do you think?"
Lei Xu is a talented general under Zhang Xiu with superb martial arts.
Upon hearing Zhang Xiu's question, Lei Xu immediately clasped his fists and said, "My lord, it doesn't matter if he is Wang Can or Liu Bei, just kill him back."
After Zhang Xiu heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and the expression on his face was as gloomy as water.
If he could really lead his troops to fight back, he wouldn't have to be so sad.

Zhang Xiu sighed in his heart, turned his eyes, and asked: "Xian Zhang, what do you think?"
Zhang Xian is also a talented general under Lei Xu, who is good at using spears and has superb marksmanship.
Hearing Zhang Xiu's question, Zhang Xian avoided answering and asked: "My lord, can we stop Liu Bei?"
Zhang Xiu frowned when he heard this.
It was clearly him who was asking the question just now, asking Mr.
Zhang.
However, now it was Zhang who asked him first, which made Zhang Xiu feel a little unhappy.
Zhang Xiu stared at Zhang Xian and said slowly: "Liu Bei is leading an army of 60,000 to attack.
With Chen Gong planning by his side and Zhang Fei as a general, it will be difficult for this general to resist."
When speaking, Zhang Xiu's tone changed.
But Zhang Xiu was still realistic and did not exaggerate that he could stop Liu Bei.
Zhang Xian's eyes rolled around a few times, and he asked again: "May I ask, my lord, if you can stop Wang Can?"
Zhang Xiu coughed twice, his expression frighteningly gloomy.
His eyes were like lightning, and he stared at Zhang Xian with his eyes wide open, as if he wanted to see through Zhang Xian's inner thoughts.
But Zhang Xian's expression remained unchanged, without any change, which made Zhang Xiu feel frustrated again.
If Zhang Xian had not been a direct general under his command, Zhang Xiu would have directly asked the soldiers to drag Zhang Xian out and kill him.
After a long time, Zhang Xiu replied in a deep voice: "Wang Can is powerful and unrivaled."
Zhang Xian did not restrain himself and continued to ask: "May I ask my lord, which one of Wang Can and Liu Bei is stronger?"
Zhang Xiu felt a little impatient as he listened to Zhang Xian's series of questions.
He was full of anger and almost roared: "Two years ago, Liu Bei, Yuan Shu and Lu Bu joined forces to attack Wang Can with three armies.
In the end, they were defeated by Wang Can.
Lu Bu was killed and Guan Yu was killed.
You Can Liu Bei defeat Wang Can by leading his troops alone?"
After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "It's all nonsense."
Zhang Xian smiled, but his expression remained the same.
Zhang Xiu saw Zhang Xian's expression, and a flash of light suddenly flashed in his heart.
Then he stared at Zhang Xian and asked tentatively: "Xian Zhang, do you mean to ask me to surrender to Wang Can?"
Zhang Xian immediately said: "My lord resisted resolutely, and the general will follow my lord to fight on the battlefield, and his body will be wrapped in horse leather."
Zhang Xian did not answer Zhang Xiu directly, but expressed his loyalty to Zhang Xiu.
Of course, Zhang Xian used a trick to avoid Zhang Xiu's questioning.
Zhang Xiu also understood what Zhang Xian meant and did not pursue or criticize Zhang Xian.
After listening, he nodded slightly, understanding that if he chose to resist to the death, Zhang Xian would also die with him.
If Zhang Xiu chose to surrender, Zhang Xian would also surrender with Zhang Xiu.
How to make a decision depends entirely on Zhang Xiu's thoughts.
Shu army camp, inside the Chinese army tent.
Wang Can was sitting in the tent, handling official business.
At this time, Guo Jia hurried in with an eager look on his face.
He walked into the camp, bowed his hands to Wang Can, and said, "My lord, it's bad, Liu Biao has sent troops."
Wang Can didn't seem to believe it and asked again: "Liu Biao has sent troops."
Guo Jia said with certainty: "Yes, Liu Biao really sent troops and came to kill our army."
Wang Can looked surprised.
Could it be that Liu Biao was given the ecstasy soup by Liu Bei?
In the past, Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao became allies and depended on each other.
But after Liu Bei and Liu Biao formed an alliance, Liu Biao sat back and watched Liu Bei attack Zhang Xiu, abandoning Zhang Xiu as an ally.
Wang Can and Liu Biao are also allies, and Wang Can and Liu Biao formed an alliance very early, much earlier than Zhang Xiudu.

Now Liu Biao sent troops to kill Wang Can, which is really strange.
For Liu Bei, Liu Biao abandoned Zhang Xiu and severed his relationship with Wang Can.
It must be said that Liu Biao did a rare and important thing.
Wang Can smiled and asked, "Where is Liu Biao's army?"
Guo Jia replied: "It is only a few hundred miles away from our army.
We can catch up with our army in a few days."
Wang Can took a cold breath.
Liu Biao was so powerful.
He was unexpected. s: The fourth update is completed, it’s time to call it a day and rest
