After Xu Sheng entered the city, he hurriedly came to see Sun Quan, and Lu Ju also reported the matter to his father Lu Fan, although Lu Ju had already issued a gag order so that the sergeants could not talk about it, but Zhu Zhi's defeat may have wiped out the whole army Such a big thing, how could the soldiers not talk about it?

Not to mention that there are 5,000 soldiers and horses under Zhu Zhi's command, which are soldiers and horses under Lu Fan, and many of the relatives and friends of the 5,000 defenders of Wanling City are among the 5,000 soldiers and horses, and Zhu Zhi's army is all wiped out, which means that their relatives and friends have also died!!

The generals and soldiers in the army discussed this matter, and the scholars in the city soon got the news, and after the Wanling scholars learned about it, they all began to panic, and the Wanling scholars also knew that when Yuan Yao's army attacked, the troops in the city were insufficient, and Sun Quan and others would definitely call their strength to defend the city, so this matter would become a problem.

If Sun Quan ordered to mobilize their forces to defend the city, should they send troops to cooperate? If they sent troops to cooperate, what should happen if they held the city at that time, what should happen if they didn't hold the city, and would Yuan Yao's army retaliate against them? If they didn't follow the orders of Sun Quan and the others, would the defenders in the city take the lead in attacking them? If the defenders of the city moved, how would they prepare for it?

After a panic in the Wanling clan, they all began to contact each other, and before Yuan Yao's army arrived, there was already some turmoil in Wanling City.

Wanling City, Sun Quan's house.

Xu Sheng took a carriage to Sun Quan's mansion, at this time Sun Quan had already received a message from Pegasus, knowing that Zhu Zhi's army might be defeated Xu Sheng was injured and had just entered the city. Chen Wu saw Xu Sheng step out of the carriage with a slow step, and there was a trace of emotion in his eyes, if it wasn't for Sun Quan ordering Xu Sheng to go with the army, maybe it would be him Chen Wu who was injured and returned to the city at this time!

Chen Wu stepped forward and bowed, and said, "Wen Xiang, Jun Hou has been waiting for you for a long time, come in with me." ”

After Chen Wu finished speaking, he ordered the sergeant to pick up Xu Sheng with a pole, and Xu Sheng replied: "Thank you Zilie for greeting, please!" ”

When everyone entered the mansion, Sun Quan was already waiting in the front hall, and when he saw Xu Sheng coming in, Sun Quan hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and said, "Wen Xiang, this hard work, please sit down!" ”

Xu Sheng bowed guilty and said: "The last general is incompetent, and he will return after being wounded and defeated, and please wait for the guilt!" ”

Zhu Zhi may have finished playing, Sun Quan naturally won't condemn Xu Sheng anymore, took a few steps forward to help Xu Sheng, and said: "Wen Xiang is too worried, you are just a deputy general in this battle, and it is not your idea to march and fight, it is not easy for you to be injured in the battle, how can I blame you?" ”

If Zhu Zhi knew that Sun Quan threw all the black cauldrons on his head, I don't know if he would be angry!

"The last general has thanked you for your grace!"

Xu Sheng bowed again, and then leaned on the top of the collapse, Sun Quan returned to his position, looked at Xu Sheng and said: "There were only sporadic military reports before, and we don't know what the battle situation in Xuancheng County is, and I also ask Wen Xiang to explain it to us in detail." ”

"This is the duty of the last general."

Xu Sheng bowed his hand slightly, and then replied: "Back to the king, after the departure of our army, the last general led three thousand soldiers and horses as the vanguard of the army, and when our army arrived at Hulu Valley in Xuancheng County, I found that Gan Ning, the general under Yuan Yao, had led the Chaisang Water Division of his department to choke the pass of Hulu Valley and cut off the waterway of the Shuiyang River!" ”

After General Zhu led the main force of the rear army to arrive, he ordered the last general to lead a thousand troops to take medium-sized warships and small warships to test the water conditions of the waterway and the enemy's situation. Just when our army was about to turn around and return, the enemy had already buried many large stones in the waterway, and our army could not turn around in a hurry, and it was at that time that the last general was wounded by an arrow. ”

General Zhu saw that the waterway was cut off by the enemy and impassable, and the sky was already dark and unable to attack the enemy's camp, so he led the army back to Xuancheng County and set up a water village. That night, the envoy sent by Wu Jing, the Taishou of Danyang, rushed to Xuancheng County, and after General Zhu talked with him, he decided to let Wu Taishou lead the soldiers and horses of Danyang to come to Xuancheng County, and the army of our army flanked the Chaisang water division before and after. ”

"On the second day, our army only feinted to attack the enemy's camp to test the enemy's reality and wait for the arrival of Danyang soldiers and horses, so the battle was not fierce and the soldiers suffered many casualties, after the army returned to the camp, at midnight, Wu Jing's envoy came to our camp again, claiming that Wu Jing had led the army to the rear of the camp of the Chaisang Water Division, and made an appointment with General Zhu, so that our soldiers and horses went to raid the camp of the Chaisang Water Division in the early hours of this morning, and the Danyang soldiers and horses would attack the enemy camp from the rear flank after the main force of the enemy army was entangled by our army. and our army flanked and destroyed the Chaisang Water Division before and after! ”

"Today near the early hours of the morning, General Zhu led his troops to raid the Chaisang Water Division, so that the last general commanded 500 troops to stay in the camp, but General Zhu's army just set off not long ago, there were thousands of Tiger Ben soldiers and horses to raid our water village, the last general was injured and could not move in the main tent to recuperate, 500 sergeants are also on duty patrol around the water village, thousands of soldiers and horses rushed up, our soldiers and horses were outnumbered and unable to retreat from the enemy, and were defeated by the enemy in a battle, and the last general was incompetent and could only lead some of the remnants to escape from the water village in a small boat."

"After the last general left the water village, he wanted to go to meet with General Zhu's troops and horses, but the last general just escaped from the water village, and saw the fire rising in the direction of the camp of the Chaisang Water Division, and the shouting and killing howl was also shocking to all directions, and the last general guessed that this must be the army of General Zhu in an enemy ambush, and the last general only had more than 100 remnants around him, and he was injured and had no combat power, and he didn't know what the situation of the enemy army was, so he could only return to Wanling first to report this matter to Jun Hou, so as not to know that Jun Hou would be attacked by the enemy army when the time came!"

"The last general is incompetent, and he failed to save the main force of General Chu's army, and he asked Jun Hou to surrender !!"

When Xu Sheng said this, he bowed his hand again and remained silent for a long time.

Sun Quan listened to Xu Sheng's words, and his brows became more and more wrinkled, especially when he heard that thousands of tiger soldiers and horses were attacking and the camp of the Chaisang Water Division was on fire, Sun Quan's expression became more and more ugly, it seems that the main force of the army led by Zhu Zhi is already more and more auspicious, otherwise how could the camp of the Chaisang Water Division catch fire? Zhu Zhi led the army to raid the enemy's camp, it was to carry out a front and rear attack with the Danyang soldiers and horses, and he would definitely not set fire to the camp, this fire must have been set by the Chaisang sailor himself! This must have been an ambush by the enemy in Zhu Zhi's army, otherwise how could the Chaisang Sailor set fire to his own camp!

In particular, there are thousands of soldiers and horses of the Tiger Ben army around the back of Zhu Zhi's army, if you think about it like this, I am afraid that the Danyang soldiers and horses should not exist, this is just a ploy of the enemy army!!

Sun Quan's character is Yin Ren and indomitable, after two defeats, Sun Quan has learned some strategies for using troops, and now it can be regarded as a rough military strategy, the most critical place is the thousands of tiger soldiers and horses!

Is the army of 15,000 gone?

Sun Quan was really a little afraid in his heart, and continued to ask: "Wen Xiang, I don't doubt your eyesight, but you really see it clearly?" The enemy army that came to raid our army was the soldiers and horses of the Tiger Ben Army under the command of Yuan Yao, not other soldiers and horses? ”

Xu Sheng also knew what Sun Quan was thinking in his heart, but he had dealt with the Tiger Army, so naturally he would not mistake the Tiger Army's armor banner!

Xu Sheng smiled bitterly a few times and replied: "Back to the monarch, when the last general followed the first main attack on Yuzhang County, he had confronted the Tiger Ben Army of the garrison Chaisang at that time twice, and he would definitely not mistake the armor banner of the Tiger Ben Army of Li Siye's department!" The 20,000 soldiers and horses of my Wanling City have been garrisoned in Wuhu all the year round, and they have also dealt with the Tiger Ben Army of Li Siye's department, and they will definitely not mistake the clothes and armor of the Tiger Ben Army. ”

"If it is really what General Xu said, since it is the soldiers and horses of the Tiger Ben Army who appeared in the water village of our army, it seems that the Danyang soldiers and horses should have had an accident, and I am afraid that the main force of the army led by General Zhu is already more auspicious! Fifteen thousand soldiers and horses were defeated like this, so what should I do!! ”

As soon as Xu Sheng's words fell, he saw Lu Fan walking in while talking.

After Lu Fan finished speaking, he bowed to Sun Quan and said, "After listening to what General Xu said, the last general really can't help it, please don't blame you!" ”

"What did the general say, General Lu is the pillar of my Wanling, how can I blame the general for just words? General, please take your seat! ”

Sun Quan replied to Lu Fan with a wry smile, and then asked: "I think the general already knows the course of the battle of Xuancheng, most of General Zhu's troops and horses have been destroyed, if the enemy army takes advantage of the victory to attack, I wonder if the general can be sure to defeat the enemy army and hold Wanling City?" ”

After Lu Fan sat down, he thought for a moment, and then replied: "Back to the king, my Wanling City is high and deep, the city defense is strong, the money and food in the city are sufficient, not only thousands of soldiers and horses, but also nearly 100,000 people, if these forces can be mobilized, if you want to defend Wanling City, it is just leisure!" ”

"But ......"

When Lu Fan said this, he suddenly stopped speaking, Sun Quan frowned slightly, and said, "The general is worried that the people in the city are unstable and someone will take advantage of the situation to make trouble?" ”。

Lu Fan smiled slightly and said, "Yes! The art of war is cloudy, the siege is the bottom, the heart is the top, Li Siye is the heavy general under Yuan Yao, he will not know this truth! ”

"The last general is not worried that the enemy will take advantage of the victory to attack my Wanling City, if this is the case, there is still a large army in my city to deal with, and the last general is even more worried that the enemy will besiege and disturb the hearts of the people in my city!"
