Chapter 190, Confrontation

Sun Ce didn't think about it for too long, or he didn't even think about it at all. After only a slight pause, he believed Zhou Yu's judgment and led the soldiers into the camp. The tent was empty, except for a table in the main tent with a jug of wine and two glasses.

There is a chapter of paper pressed under the wine jug, which is Zhuge Liang's book.

"Please Sun Bofu and Zhou Gongjin take a break here, we have finished the delay, and we will wait for the two of you outside Luoyang City. ”

Sun Ce took the note and read it over and over again, and said with a smile: "Zhuge Liang's handwriting is good! Gong Jin, it's not worse than you!"

Zhou Yu knelt down on the table and filled his glass with wine. pushed a cup to Sun Ce and said, "Zhuge Liang's talent, how can he be weaker than me." In terms of strategy, I didn't have the confidence to overcome him, not to mention that there was also a Chen Ping. Now even Xun Yu and Xu Shu are in the Han camp, and Cao Cao is not a school teacher."

Sun Ce pursed his lips and said, "Together we are weak everywhere, it's just an addition." ”

Zhou Yu said with a smile: "The four hundred years of accumulation of the Han family can not be compared for a while. I have a Yangtze River trench in Dongwu, and there are many talents, and in time, it will not be weaker than the Han family. Let's drink a glass of wine first, the wine prepared by Zhuge Liang is good, I have been in the underworld for so long, and it is the first time I have drunk such a fine wine, I don't know if it was made by Du Kang. ”

Sun Ce drank a glass of wine, rolled his eyes, and said: "Otherwise, let's form an alliance with the Han family first, and bully Cao Cao together! Isn't it still the Sun-Liu alliance in the world! During the Northern Expedition of Shu and Han, Zhongmou didn't lag behind!"

Zhou Yu hammered his head and said: "Dispel this thought for me, the matter of the old general's private possession of the jade seal is not a secret in the underworld! We have long been the enemies of the Han family, and in the world, Cao Wei is powerful, and there is no way." If you break the covenant, aren't you afraid of Fusu's anger?"

Sun Ce said with a smile: "Fusu can't take care of so many things, we have taken over the business, what are you afraid of!"

Zhou Yu said coldly: "Don't forget, before we came to the grassland, it was the Qin army chasing the Han family to fight! The sharp soldiers and iron cavalry of Great Qin have not been disbanded, and now they are just guarding the caravan going to the west in the name of the underworld." If you transfer some people back, you can bulldoze Jianye. ”

"If you do this, we can only be bullied? You help Su Gongzi to have so many capable people, can you borrow two? Even if you bring Bai Qi or Han Xin here!"

Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "It's unlikely, the Qin Dynasty withdrew from the grassland very simply, and Fusu will not directly intervene in the battle in the future." Bear it honestly, if you really can't hold it anymore, then ask Fusu for help. With the Qin Dynasty as a backer behind us, the Han family can't destroy us. ”

Sun Ce was a little embarrassed, he didn't want to be beaten all the time. How can a dignified overlord keep being an angry bag, he just wants others to be afraid of him. But Zhou Yu is the truth, at this stage, there is really no hope of turning over, and I can only hope that the world can develop better and die more talents.

The wine had been drunk, and the army set off again, this time without encountering any obstacles, and it was very smooth to Luoyang City.

Five miles from Luoyang, the Wu army set up camp. Sending scouts to investigate, the Han army has surrounded Luoyang City, and the total number of troops sent by the three parties is more than 100,000, and a circle of big pits has been dug around Luoyang. And the Han army has not stopped, still doing the work of excavation. The excavated earth was piled up together into many high platforms, which were scattered around the camp of the Han army.

The arrival of Sun Cejun did not make Cao Cao feel the slightest joy, and during this time he had already let the tiger and leopard ride out of the city several times, but each time he was beaten back. Liu Che personally went into battle to command the Yulin Army, and Liu Xiu took the half-finished five schools of the Northern Army, and the combat effectiveness that erupted made Cao Cao envious. The Xiliang Iron Cavalry was not so fierce back then, and the Yulin Army and the Fifth Colonel of the Northern Army in their heyday launched a ruthless attack, which really exceeded all Rao estimates.

Even Liu Bang didn't expect the two troops in his hands to be so powerful, Liu Che and Liu Xiu are very handy, and they are worthy of being two of the better ones among their grandsons.

Sima Yi was also shocked, he didn't know much about Yulin Army, but he had seen the fifth school of the Northern Army. Although the five schools of the Northern Army led by Huangfu Song back then were strong, they were definitely not as strong as they were in front of them. When Liu Xiu recovered, the soldiers under his hands were so capable of fighting.

After calming down his thoughts slightly, he turned his head to look, where was Zhang Chunhua? Hasn't she been staring at herself? Where have you been running now? After looking around, she finally found her in front of the formation, as well as the handsome young man beside her. Sima Yi was angry from his heart, hooking up with a man here in front of him, did she Zhang Chunhua not save face for him?

His face was very long, and he leaned over with his hands behind his back and said, "Chunhua, who is this?"

Zhang Chunhua turned a blind eye to his face, smiled and hugged Liu Qi's arm, and said, "This is my Emperor Xiaojing of the Han Dynasty, old thing, don't hurry up and pay homage!"

Sima Yi's face froze, and the weather was uncertain. Zhang Chunhua's actions made him very unhappy, holding the arms of other men in front of his husband, did he really think that he didn't exist? But if he wanted to be angry with Liu Qi, he was a little jealous, everything at the moment depended on the assistance of the Han family, if Liu Qi was evil, it was difficult to guarantee that there would be no trouble.

Liu Qi pulled his arm out of Zhang Chunhua and said: "You are Sima Yi, very good, Gaozu is very optimistic about you, Sima is also a Hanchen in the past dynasties, although you helped Cao Cao when you were in the world, you can also get lost and return to the Cao family, which is very good." ”

Sima Yi's face was slightly better, and he bowed down and said, "Emperor Xiaojing Miao Zan, I'm just conforming to the will of the people." ”

Liu Qi nodded slightly, and said, "What do you think of the formation of my Han army? Can the Yulin Army be seen? Is the fifth school of the Northern Army strong?"

"The Han army is brilliant and mighty, it is really the only one I have seen. The Yulin army is as prosperous as the forest, and the five colonels of the Northern Army are strong, and if the emperor has such a strong army, there will be no chaos. ”

"It's a pity that the descendants of later generations are not angry, and such a strong army cannot be maintained, and eventually Tai'a hangs upside down. Liu Qi sighed deeply, the situation in the world is not very good, after Zhuge Liang died, Adou began to indulge, with Liu Hong's posture back then, making them deeply worried.

Sima Yi looked at the array, the position where the Han army dug the pit was closer to Luoyang Chengqiang, it was already within fifty steps, if the Wei army did not release the arrows, I was afraid that it would soon dig into the city.

"Chunhua, follow me to see Wu Jun's movements, and see what Sun Ce and Zhou Yu look like. ”

Zhang Chunhua looked at Liu Qi and saw Liu Qi bowing slightly. Only then did he reply: "Okay, let's go." ”

Sima Yi and Zhang Chunhua walked to the back of the camp with a gloomy face, and the smoke in the Wu army's camp tent could be seen from a distance, and looking at the scale, there should be about 50,000 Wu troops coming to support.

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang are leading the Han army in Chengdu City to deploy defenses, there are no tricks, and they are also digging pits. It was a horse trap dug to restrain the cavalry. Densely packed, all over the front mile. Seeing Sima Yi and Zhang Chunhua coming over, Liu Bei took Zhuge Liang forward to talk.

"Zhongda, why aren't you in front of the battle?"

Sima Yi changed his smile and said to Liu Bei: "Xuande Gong, I have been advancing according to plan before the battle, nothing went wrong, I heard that Wu Jun was coming, so come and see what kind of characters Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are." ”

Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "It's not an ordinary character, Sun Ce is brave and diligent, the tiger general of the world, Zhou Gongjin is elegant and elegant, and he can be called a generation of celebrities." ”

Sima Yi looked at Zhuge Liang with a little surprise, there are not many people who can make Zhuge Liang have such an evaluation. Although Zhou Yu was only four years older than him, he died too early and failed to communicate. In the Wei Kingdom, the evaluation of him is also uneven, and it is difficult to be pertinent. Therefore, Sima Yi's understanding of Zhou Yu is not too much, and now listening to what Zhuge Liang said, he can't help but be a little jealous of Zhou Yu in his heart.

Liu Bei agrees with Zhuge Liang's evaluation, Zhou Yu has a magnificent personality and has Wang Zuo's qualifications. He is also proficient in music and rhythm, which can be described as a talent for a while. It's a pity that Juncai can't dig it up from Lao Sun's family.

Liu Bei and others were looking at the camp of the Wu army, and Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were also looking at the camp of the Han army. The Han army's digging of horse pits fell on their eyes, but they didn't care much about this kind of thing, as if they had many cavalry in their hands.

Sun Ce had already exchanged letters with Cao Cao and exchanged information about Pets. The situation is really not good, the Han army is now digging pits in a circle outside Luoyang City, and the tiger and leopard riders are beaten back once. How capable the Yulin Army and the half-finished Fifth School of the Northern Army were to fight this matter, Cao Cao did not hide it in the letter. To belittle such an enemy is to belittle one's own tiger and leopard rider. Being sincere with your allies will also help you get better support, and deceiving your allies will only drag you to get beaten up with you, and will not benefit the situation in the slightest.

Sun Ce was surprised by the introduction in Cao Cao's letter, according to the content of the letter, the Yulin army fought tigers and leopards, and the comparison between them was about 1 to 10. That is, if the Yulin Army retreats by one, the Tiger and Leopard Rider will retreat by ten. And the fifth school of the Northern Army is weaker in terms of data, which also reached one to six. The fifth school has only been trained into two battalions now, and the other three battalions are all semi-finished products. Sun Ce could already foresee how strong the fifth school of the Northern Army was, and it was simply the second in the Yulin Army.

This battle can't be fought, the Han army has put so many elites here, and the current Wei and Wu armies are not opponents at all.

Sighing, Sun Ce said slowly: "This battle can't be fought, the difference in strength is too great, I also said that the Han family has been a lot more honest in recent years, and he has not come out to pick anything, and he has been accumulating capital together." Write a letter to Cao Cao, let's withdraw. ”

Zhou Yu's eyebrows moved, and he said, "The current situation is like this, but you can't withdraw your troops easily." The army poured out, and if a battle was not fought, it would inevitably hurt morale. What's more, the Han army is close to me, and if the intention is seen through, it is easy to be pursued by the tail. ”

"What then? You can't make the boys refuel. ”

Zhou Yu turned around a few times before he said: "The Han army came out to fight a few battles, and during the war, let the infantry secretly retreat to Luoyang fifty miles away, leaving the cavalry to pretend to be infantry, and after the fight, get on the horse and meet the infantry, feign retreat, and then decide whether to advance or retreat depending on the situation." If there is a turnaround, you can also march again, and if it is not harmonious, withdraw the army back to Jianye. In any case, we have done our part as allies. ”

"Okay, just according to what Gongjin said. ”
