Rebirth: I’m Lv Bu

Chapter 403: Bad news spreads

Zhang Liao glanced at Wen Chou and said with a smile: "Brother Wen Chou, this Danyang battle may be our last battle...." Wen Chou laughed loudly, and said arrogantly: "That's not a big deal! I can fight General Zhang Liao. It is my honor to fight to death together on the battlefield!" Zhang Liao laughed and said: "It is also an honor for Zhang Liao to be able to fight to death with Brother Wen Chou! I only hope that you and I can fight side by side in the next life!" Wen Chou laughed and said: " I mean it too!"

Zhang Liao turned to look at the sky, and saw that the sun had risen a lot. I couldn't help but feel strange, because Sun Jianjun had already launched a fierce attack a few days ago, and the entire city had become a pot of porridge! But why Sun Jianjun hasn't appeared today? At this point, I couldn't help but look at Sun Jianjun's camp outside the city. Suddenly, a strange feeling arose in Zhang Liao's heart, and he couldn't help asking Wen Chou, "Brother Wen Chou, look at the enemy camp, is it too quiet?" Wen Chou immediately looked towards the enemy barracks outside the city. After a while, he nodded and said: "Yes! It's too quiet! It shouldn't be so quiet at night! What's the matter?"

Zhang Liao's heart moved, and he said with joy: "Brother Wen Chou, maybe we won the Danyang battle!" Then he ordered the soldiers to call the scout officer, and said: "You immediately take two scouts to the enemy camp outside the city to investigate! "The scout clasped his fists and promised, then he hurried down the city wall. Not long after, the north gate opened, and the scout led several scouts rushing out of the gate. Why did the scouts leave the city through the north gate? Isn't that a long way around? Why not just leave the city from the west gate below? It turned out that the main battlefield of the fierce battle in the past few days was near the West City Gate. The war was full of dangers. In order to save a bit of worry, Zhang Liao had ordered people to completely block the West City Gate with wood and stones. So now you can only go through other gates to get out of the city, and you can't go through this west gate temporarily.

I saw a few scouts galloping towards the Sun Jianjun camp outside the West City Gate. Soon they rushed to the opposing camp. About half an hour later, a scout rushed back and reported with joy: "Tell the general, the enemy camp has long gone to the camp and no one is seen!" Zhang Liao laughed, and then made Wen Chou. Defending the city, he himself led hundreds of riders to Sun Jianjun's camp to investigate.

At this time, Sun Jian's army that had retreated overnight was already thirty miles away. Faced with the dilemma, Sun Jian finally did not dare to risk Chaisang's fall and chose to abandon the attack on Danyang, who was about to succeed, and the whole army returned to aid Chaisang. Chai Sang is not only the current capital of Sun Jian, but also hoarding almost all of Sun Jian's money and food. If Chai Sang loses his defense, the consequences for Sun Jian will be disastrous.

Sun Jian and Sun Ce led the army all the way to the west, and soon returned to Chaisang. The officials and people of Chaisang who had been in fear for many days saw their lord leading the army back, and couldn't help being ecstatic, and flocked to the streets to welcome their lord. The crowded alleys in Chaisang City are full of hustle and bustle. This scene is as if Sun Jian and Sun Ce have returned from a triumphant victory.

In the lobby of Sun Jian's General Mansion, Sun Jian and all his subordinates who were always civil and military gathered together, and Zhou Yu, who was seriously ill, also lay on a soft bed and was carried into the lobby. Zhou Yu was not injured this time, it should be said that he was sick. When they were going north to Jingzhou and everything was going well, suddenly there was the bad news that Lu Bujun crossed the river and seized Wujun and other places in Danyang. An arrogant Zhou Yu felt that he had been calculated by Xu Shu and others, and he couldn't feel it. Accepted, spurted blood on the spot and fainted. Although Zhou Yu was rescued and awake later, after this stimulation, his body became very weak. Therefore, when Sun Jian and Sun Ce led an army to urgently aid Danyang and other places, Zhou Yu was sent to Chaisang to recover. Even today, although Zhou Yu's condition is much better than before, it is still difficult to walk on the ground.

Sun Jian asked Zhou Yu and Lu Su: "Can the Lu Bujun on the opposite side take any action?"

Zhou Yu sighed and looked very badly and honestly: "It seems that we have been caught again! This is just the opponent's suspicious strategy!" Sun Jian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, but he immediately changed his mood when he thought of Danyang, which was about to be attacked. I didn't get up well, frowned and didn't speak. I want to attack Danyang again, but thinking of the delays on the road these few days, I am afraid that the main force of Lu Bu's army is not far away, and the chance of regaining Danyang is finally lost. Sun Jian couldn't help sighing, his expressions looked a little depressed.

Seeing Sun Jian's appearance, Zhou Yu blamed himself, holding a fist and said, "It was all due to the incompetence of his subordinates, which caused the main official to fall short! Subordinates..." Speaking of this, Zhou Yu coughed violently. Sun Jian, Sun Ce and others couldn’t help but rushed to Zhou Yu’s side. Sun Jian pressed Zhou Yu’s shoulders and comforted him: “Gong Jin, don’t blame yourself! It’s my decision to return to the army to defend Chaisang! I can’t risk Chaisang. The risk of losing your defense! Gong Jin must take care of your body. The next battle will depend on Gong Jin’s wisdom!" Zhou Yu smiled bitterly and murmured: "I have been calculated by Jia Xu Xu again and again. The lord is making suggestions!" Sun Ce hurriedly said, "Gong Jin must not say that! You and Jia Xu Xu Shu are just winning each other! This is like a game of chess with a top chess player, the number of wins and losses depends on many times. God's will!" Zhou Yu felt better when he heard these words.

After a pause, he clasped his fist towards Sun Jian and said: "Lord, I think that soon, Lu Bu will lead his army directly across the river to fight me Chaisang! Our navy will be the key to determining the outcome of this battle!..." Jiang Dong In the previous battle of Chibi, the navy was almost annihilated. However, the Jiangdong navy has a profound background. Although it suffered heavy losses, it quickly recovered a part of the navy after the war. At present, there are more than 10,000 people in the Jiangdong navy, but there is a shortage of warships, and they are basically warships converted from civilian ships.

When Sun Jian heard Zhou Yu's words, he couldn't help frowning, and said, "Gong Jin, the navy only has a little more than 10,000 people, and most of them are recruits, and there is a shortage of warships. How can you be the opponent of Lu Bu's navy!"

Zhou Yu said: "Lord, our advantage is that Lu Bu doesn't know that our navy has recovered a bit. This is like the battle of Chibi when the Lu Bu navy was comparable to Cao Jun navy. In terms of strength, Lu Bu How can the navy be compared with the navy of Cao Jun, but because Cao Cao had no idea that Lu Bu would have a navy, he was caught off guard by Lu Bu and completely lost the battle of Chibi..." Everyone heard This words could not help but suddenly realized, Sun Ce couldn't help but said: "So it is!" Then he said with a look of admiration: "I originally thought that Gong Jin was firmly opposed to the navy going to fight with the enemy. I thought that doing so was just a waste of troops but not much use. Jin is still preparing for the final counterattack!" When other people heard this, they couldn't help expressing their admiration.

Zhou Yu smiled bitterly: "Brother Bo Fu thanked you!" Then he clasped a fist towards Sun Jian and said, "Master, if the enemy wants to attack Chaisang, they must first start a war across the river. At this time, our navy must not appear because of this. At that time, the use of mariners was not only useless and increased losses, but it would expose our cards. Let the enemy cross the river. After the enemy crossed the river, they formed a land and water village outside Chaisang City to attack Chaisang. Infantry horses must rely on horses. The city was resolutely guarded, and at the same time, Huang Gai's navy had to prepare more sulfur and other fire-catching objects at any time to prepare for attack, and only waited for the northwest wind to attack the enemy's land and water camps by night, and let the battle of Chibi Cao Jun's fiasco is repeated here!..." Zhou Yu couldn't help but gasp, looking very pale. After hearing Zhou Yu's arrangement, everyone felt their eyes bright. Originally everyone was very pessimistic about the next battle, but Zhou Yu's words made them see the dawn of victory. Seeing Zhou Yu panting badly, Sun Jian quickly said, "Gong Jin, take a break!..."

Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "The subordinates are fine, don't worry about it." After a pause, he continued: "If this battle is successful, the main force of the enemy will be wiped out. If we can capture Lu Bu, this situation will be very beneficial to us. If you can’t capture Lu Bu and be escaped by him, you don’t have to worry about the Lu Bu army invading again in a short time. And our army should take advantage of this opportunity to recover the three counties of Danyang, Wu County, and Huiji. At this moment, our military strength is already there. No longer before, it will be very difficult to fight against Lu Bu and Liu Bei alone. Therefore, it is necessary to unite with Cao Cao and take advantage of Cao Cao's power to compete with Lu Bu and Liu Bei. At that time, there should be a chance to take the world by storm." He stopped talking, and gasped for breath.

After hearing Zhou Yu's words, everyone felt that the road ahead had already appeared under their feet, and they were not confused anymore. Seeing Zhou Yu's expression in pain, Sun Jian hurriedly called a doctor to treat Zhou Yu.

At this moment, a personal officer rushed in, clasped his fist and said: "Master, General Jiang Qin has sent someone here."

Sun Jian frowned and murmured: "Jiang Qin? Is something wrong with Jiang Xia?" Then he said to the soldier officer: "Bring people in." The soldier officer promised and ran down, and soon saw him. Leading an army officer with an anxious face came in. As soon as the officer saw Sun Jian and Sun Ce, he immediately bowed: "The villain pays respects to the lord, to the major general!"

Sun Jian said, "You don't need to be polite. What's the matter with Jiang Qin sending you here? Isn't Jiang Xia an accident?"

"Return to the lord, the three counties of Jiangxia, Changsha, and Wuling were all lost not long ago!" When everyone in the hall suddenly heard this, they suddenly exploded. Sun Jian shouted angrily: "How could this be? I have left more than ten thousand defenders in the three places. Liu Bei has not many soldiers and horses in Jingzhou. How can I take my three counties in an instant?"

The officer said: "A few days ago, Guan Yu led an army of 20,000 across the river to reach Jiangxia City. General Jiang Qin ordered the officers and soldiers to board the city wall to prepare for the defense. But that night, the defending army and some of the residents in the city turned into a mutiny and opened the gate of the city. The army was put into the city. Our army was caught off guard and was defeated...." Sun Jian frowned, his expression very embarrassed. Zhou Yu looked a little better at this time and frowned, "It seems that the army gathered by the prisoners has long been instigated by Zhuge Liang, as well as the gentry and common people of Jiangxia. They are really planning for a long time!" Then he asked the officer: "Afterwards, did Guan Yu send his men to make up our soldiers and flee to Changsha County and Wuling County, open the city gates and seize the city in one fell swoop?" The officer clasped his fists in admiration and said, "Just as the governor said! That's how it is!"
