"Brother Yi went to Hefei?"

Sun Ce, who was patrolling the camp, was excited, and hurriedly said: "Quick, chase him back!"

Zhou Yu said: "Bo Fu, it's too late. ”

"This kid!" Sun Ce's fist clenched and clattered, "Do whatever you want, be bold!"

Zhou Yu said: "Actually, this is not necessarily a bad thing. ”

"Huh?"

Zhou Yu said: "We can't imagine that Sun Yi dares to do this, then the enemy should be even more unexpected." So what we should do now is to gather a large army and be ready to break the city at any time!"

Sun Ce said: "But Brother Yi is under siege, even if he has three heads and six arms, he can't stop so many Yuan soldiers!"

Zhou Yu said calmly: "So we should attack the city and let the defenders in the city be busy defending against the enemy, so as to create the greatest chance of survival for him." ”

At that moment, Zhou Yu ordered Gan Ning to lead an army to Dazhai in the west of the city to block Zhang Liao, and Tai Shici to lead an army to Dazhai in the east of the city to block Xu Huang. Sun Ce led Zhou Tai, Cheng Pu, Han Dang and other generals to Hefei City.

An army of 40,000 people, carrying soil and grass, came to the moat.

At this time, it was spring, and the moat was shallow; in addition, a few days ago, the Sun army's army attacked the city, and the moat had already been filled.

In the city of Hefei, the flames are soaring, and the voices of people are boiling, which is obviously also a mess.

"The city gate is open!" Zhou Yu said excitedly to Sun Ce: "Bo Fu, quickly attack the city, seize Hefei, and you can open the gate of the Central Plains!"

Sun Ce raised his spear, and Zhou Tai and other generals led the army into the city. Sun Ce led the Chinese army and pressed forward in a big way.

Yuan's army was obviously more tenacious than Sun Ce had imagined, and although the city gate was lost, he still insisted on fighting in the streets.

The fierce battle lasted for most of the night, and Sun Ce occupied the city of Hefei. The defender Cao Ren abandoned the city and left.

Zhou Yu was a little strange and said: "How can the strength of the Yuan army guarding Hefei not match the numbers in the intelligence? The Yuan army we eliminated and the captured Yuan soldiers only add up to a few thousand. ”

Next to him, Zhou Tai said, "Did they all flee with Cao Ren?"

Zhou Yu shook his head and said nothing.

At this time, Gan Ning came to hand over the order and said: "A certain and Zhang Liao fought fiercely and could not win. Later, when Zhang Liao saw the fall of Hefei, he withdrew his troops directly. If there is no military order, there is no pursuit. ”

Zhou Yu said: "Poor Kou Mo chase, General Gan did the right thing." ”

said so, but between Zhou Yu's handsome eyebrows, it was even more suspicious.

After a while, Tai Shici also came to hand over the order, saying that Xu Huang had no love for war and also retreated.

Sun Ce waved his hand and said: "The Yuan army is all gutless bandits, and Hefei is such an important gateway, and it can't be held to the death." If I were Yuan Xi, I would definitely cut off the heads of these shrimp soldiers and crab generals...... By the way, did you see Brother Yi?"

Zhou Tai and other generals who participated in the attack on Hefei shook their heads and said they didn't know.

Sun Ce's heart sank, and he said: "Order the whole army, dig three feet into the ground, and find Brother Yi." You have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death!"

Zhou Yu persuaded: "Bofu, now that Hefei has just been captured, you should immediately inspect the city defense, restore the garrison, and at the same time send people to Anhui City in case of accidents." ”

Sun Ce shook his head and insisted: "If Brother Yi loses, I would rather not want this Hefei City!"

The Jiangdong army searched the streets and alleys of Hefei City.

Suddenly, it was reported that the gates were on fire. Sun Ce had just arranged for the soldiers to put out the fire, but before the military order was issued, the four gates caught fire together, and the fire raged and ignited the houses in the city.

This fire was obviously planned for a long time, and the fire burned half of the sky.

Zhou Yu exclaimed: "It must be Yuan Jun who set fire to the city! I don't know who planned to offer such a poisonous plan." Bo Fu, quickly order the withdrawal from Hefei!"

Sun Ce was unwilling, but he could only lead the army out of Hefei City.

After the burning Sun army left the city, it encountered the return horse gun killed by the Yuan army. Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Cao Ren and other generals of the Yuan army led their troops to intercept and kill, while Sun's army was hit by the burning of the city, and its morale was greatly frustrated, and the formation was chaotic, and it had already shown a trend of rout.

The three Yuan soldiers all came towards Sun Ce's banner, shouting one after another to capture Sun Ce alive.

Zhou Yu was beside Sun Ce and said in a low voice: "Put down the handsome flag and take the path back to Jiangdong!"

Sun Ce raised his gun and said loudly: "The courage of the soldiers." If I flee in fright, how can these 50,000 Jiangdong soldiers deal with themselves? Raise the handsome flag, and the generals will rush with me to kill the enemy!"

In the midst of the chaos, Sun Ce bravely rushed into battle and killed seven generals of Yuan's army in a row, but no one dared to be everywhere he went.

The morale of the Jiangdong army was revived, and Sun Ce's personal troops were the lead and regrouped.

Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Cao Ren and other generals, seeing that the situation was not good, after fighting for a while, they withdrew their troops again and actually threw themselves to the southeast.

Sun Ce regrouped his army and saw that only half of the 50,000 troops were left, and most of them died in the fire in Hefei. Most of the remaining more than 20,000 sergeants were wounded.

This time he fell for Yuan's plan and lost his soldiers and horses. However, Hefei City is already a blank land, and when our army returns to Anhui City, we will regroup and take the Central Plains!"

Sun Ce was still very reliable at the critical moment, and his impassioned rhetoric rekindled the confidence of the gray Jiangdong generals.

However, Zhou Yu was not optimistic, and said to Sun Ce in a low voice: "I'm afraid that Wancheng will be difficult to defend. Look at the generals of the Yuan clan, why didn't they go to the northwest when they retreated, but went to the southeast? There is only Wancheng in the southeast, do they want to throw themselves into the net?"

Sun Ce was taken aback: "You mean, Wancheng is lost?"

Zhou Yu nodded and said, "I have estimated that the Yuan army that fought fiercely with us tonight will not exceed 30,000 people. And the defenders of Hefei have at least 60,000 or 70,000 troops! Where did the remaining half of the soldiers and horses go? I am afraid that they took advantage of the great battle of Hefei to seize the city of Anhui!"

Sun Ce narrowed his eyes and said, "Having said that, if you don't take a look in person, you can't be reconciled." ”

......

Anhui City.

Jia Xu stood at the head of the city, looked ahead, and saw the banner of the three-way Yuan soldiers coming from afar, and couldn't help shaking his head and said: "Zhang Liao, Xu Huang and Cao Ren are all fierce generals, can't they take a Sun Ce who has been hit by the fire scheme? The strength of the Jiangdong army is really strong." ”

Qiao Rui was right behind him, and said with a smile: "Sir's strategy is really eye-opening. The fire burned Hefei, secretly seized the city of Anhui, and the serial strategy was completed in one go. No wonder the lord holds the sword together. ”

Jia Xu shook his head: "My wisdom is far worse than that of the lord." ”

Qiao Rui could see at a glance the smugness that Jia Xu hid in the corner of his eyes, and couldn't help but smile: "Thank you, sir, for leaving me the exploits of attacking Anhui City." ”

Jia Xu shook his head and said very seriously: "General Qiao is the most suitable candidate to capture Anhui City, and when I deployed, I didn't have the slightest selfishness." ”

“...... What the sir said is. Qiao Rui nodded.
