Sun Ce's words made Liu Bei's heart beat wildly, and Liu Bei was excited to escape for his life, but he was still silent on the surface.

"I don't know who this hero, who my father is?"

"My father is Changsha Taishou, Sun Jian, Sun Wentai."

"It was originally the Jiangdong Tiger Sun Changsha, no wonder Sun Haojie is so brave and worthy of being the heir of the tiger. It's just that if you let me go. Afterwards, Yuan Highway learned that he must be guilty of you. You teach me this...."

Liu Bei's vision was constantly changing, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Sun Ce.

Liu Xuzhou has no need to worry. Sun has his own measure. However, Sun has a secret letter here, and he hopes that after Liu Xuzhou escapes, he will take a closer look. ”

Sun Ce took out a secret letter from his sleeve, Liu Bei originally wanted to pick it up, but Pan Feng was afraid that Sun Ce would take advantage of this to get close to Liu Bei and it would be unfavorable to him, so he hurriedly walked forward to take the letter in Sun Ce's hand.

Then Liu Bei was about to thank him, when suddenly there was a sound of galloping horses' hooves on the mountain road. Sun Ce was startled and hurriedly urged.

"It must be Ji Ling's soldiers and horses chasing after him. Liu Xuzhou, you quickly retreat. I'll lead them away! ”

"Today's kindness, Liu will definitely repay it in the future. There will be a period after General Sun! ”

After Sun Ce and Liu Bei nodded, they led their troops to retreat quickly and rushed down the mountain. Soon Sun Ce met the Ji Ling troops who rushed in, Sun Ce shouted that there was no big-eared thief here, and the Ji Ling troops all believed Sun Ce's words, and withdrew from the mountain with Sun Ce, looking at another mountain to find it.

Liu Bei hid in one place, and when he saw that Sun Ce had really led away the pursuers for him, he immediately panicked a little in his heart. At the same time, he thought that his army of 30,000 was wiped out by Zhou Gongjin's tricks, and he thought that he would die nine times this time and it would be difficult to be saved, but he didn't expect Sun Ce to let him live.

Although Liu Bei didn't know what Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were planning, Liu Bei couldn't help but sigh at their demeanor.

"Sure enough, it's a hero out of a teenager. Sun Wentai has such a tiger and a son, what more can a husband ask for. Moreover, Zhou Gongjin was extremely scheming, such a peerless strategist, and he was willing to assist the Sun family. It seems that the Sun family will rise inexorably in the world in the near future. ”

Liu Bei sighed silently, he had always hoped that there would be a strategist who could give him a great strategy and win thousands of miles away. It's just that this level of strategists is not only hard to find, but also has their own way of choosing the master, even if you meet it, if you don't meet the requirements of the Lord in their hearts, even if you are swords and guns, they will never bow their heads. Just like Chen Deng, Liu Bei worked hard, but Chen Deng was still lukewarm to him.

"In such troubled times, if I can't find a peerless advisor, no matter how many fierce generals and elite soldiers there are, it will be difficult to gain a foothold!"

After this battle, Liu Bei's desire to seek a peerless advisor has reached an unsurpassed level. After that, Liu Bei, under the protection of Pan Feng and hundreds of remnants, fled all the way, and finally fled back to Guangling County, Xuzhou a few days later. Soon after they fled back, Zhang Fei escorted Mi Zhu, Sun Qian and others, and also fled back to Guangling. Zhang Fei originally thought that Liu Bei was separated, or encountered an accident, and searched for a long time in the battlefield to no avail. Mi Zhu saw that Pan Feng was not seen in the battlefield, so he persuaded Zhang Fei, saying that Liu Bei must have been rescued by Pan Feng and was able to escape, perhaps he had fled back to Guangling. Zhang Fei knew the ability of his second brother Pan Feng, if it was really as Mi Zhu said, Liu Bei was protected by Pan Feng, and it would be foolproof, so he fought his way out of the encirclement and rushed back to Guangling.

As for Liu Bei, he has always been worried about the safety of Zhang Fei and others, and met Zhang Fei and others again in Guangling, Liu Bei saw that Zhang Fei was safe, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

Under Zhou Yu's offering, Ji Ling flooded Liu Bei's 30,000 army, and his morale was like a rainbow, and he went straight to Guangling. When Liu Bei heard that Ji Ling's army was coming, he hurriedly transferred soldiers from the East China Sea, gathered 20,000 troops, and fought against Ji Ling's 100,000 army in Huaiyin, Guangling. Huaiyin is the county seat of Guangling, originally attacked by Cao Ren, Chen Deng with the prestige of the Chen family, gathered the Guangling giants, and contributed manpower and financial resources to build Huaiyin City into a solid city. Among them, many things that defended the city, such as arrows, boulders, and logs, still exist.

At the beginning, Chen Deng had no fierce generals in his hands, and he was able to block Cao Ren's tens of thousands of troops. At this time, in Huaiyin City, not only was the garrison complete, but also Pan Feng, Zhang Fei and other fierce generals were guarded, and Chen Deng had more room to play. And whether Chen Deng has the heart to invest in Liu Bei or not, he will help. For Chen Deng, although Yuan Shu has the family background of the fourth and third princes, as well as the grand power, Yuan Shu is stubborn and self-serving, does not listen to the words of the ministers, and is extremely arrogant, which is even more unbearable than Liu Bei. Chen Deng naturally would not let Xuzhou fall into the hands of Yuan Shu.

Chen Deng assisted Liu Bei in defending Huaiyin, and 20,000 soldiers and horses were deployed by Chen Deng to hold the strong attack of Ji Ling's 100,000 army. Ji Ling couldn't attack strongly, and he lost a lot of soldiers and horses. After attacking for several days, although the two urn cities of Huaiyin City were broken, they also paid the price of 20,000 soldiers.

Ji Ling saw that the loss was huge, so he found Sun Ce and Zhou Yu overnight to ask for advice.

In Ji Ling's tent, Ji Ling's face was solemn, and his eyes were full of anticipation when he looked at Zhou Yu.

"Military division, Huaiyin City can't be attacked, and the loss of troops in the past few days has been huge. If this continues, even if Huaiyin is breached, we will have to pay the price of nearly half of our troops. I don't know if the military advisor has a strategy, can he break this Huaiyin City? ”

Zhou Yu squinted, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.

"General Ji. I heard that the person in command in Huaiyin City was a famous man in Xuzhou, Chen Yua

Dragon. This man is resourceful and has the ability to command troops. At the beginning, Cao Cao's general Cao Ren was also under this person, and there was nothing to be done. Shu Yu is incompetent, and he can't think of a good plan at this time. If you act rashly, you are afraid that you will be used by them. ”

Ji Ling frowned when he heard this. He had also heard of Chen Deng's deeds, and it was understandable that Zhou Yu was so cautious.

"If we can't break through Huaiyin, then our army will be blocked here. I can't fight for a long time, but I'm afraid that the army will be unstable. ”

Zhou Yu's bright and deep eyes secretly cast a look at Sun Ce, and Sun Ce understood it, and he spoke.

"General Ji, Huaiyin has Chen Yua

Guarded by the dragon. For a while, it will be difficult to capture. At present, we waited for the army, the strong attack was fruitless, the daily consumption of grain and grass was huge, and the soldiers were exhausted from repeated fierce battles. Why don't you retreat back to Huainan for the time being, and then make a decision after discussing with the lord? ”

"What General Sun said is reasonable. It's just that if you withdraw your troops in a hurry, you are afraid that the big-eared thieves will take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill. ”

"It's easy. I've got my own plan for it. If the big-eared thief dares to chase after him, I will teach him that there is no return! ”

Zhou Yu smiled indifferently, exuding wisdom all over his body, and couldn't help but give people a sense of stability, as if as long as there was this person, any difficult matter could be easily solved.

"Hahahaha! The military advisor has the wisdom of the heavens and the earth, and the lord can be assisted by the military advisor, so why worry about the great cause! ”

Ji Ling's face was happy, and his worries were reduced a lot.

Subsequently, Ji Ling ordered the soldiers to rest at the suggestion of Zhou Yu, and did not attack the city the next day, and at night, Zhou Yu ordered the two soldiers and horses to retreat at night. Then in the coming day, Ji Ling ordered the army to begin to withdraw from the camp.

Ji Ling withdrew his troops, and a soldier came to report to Liu Bei. When Zhang Fei heard this, his face was suddenly happy, and he laughed.

"Hahaha. Pifu couldn't capture Huaiyin and wanted to withdraw the army. Now is the time to pursue! Brother, give me 3,000 fast rides, let me kill the pleasure! Come to avenge the revenge of Xuyi in the past! ”

When Liu Bei heard that Ji Ling had withdrawn his troops, he also intended to send troops to cover up the killing, but when he was about to speak, Chen Deng on the side said.

"Never. Yesterday, Ji Ling did not attack the city, and the soldiers were able to recover, and on this day, I don't know what arrangements he made in secret. Attacking rashly is extremely vulnerable to ambushes. ”

Chen Deng's words were like a plate of cold water poured on Zhang Fei's head. Zhang Fei didn't like it, so he shouted.

"How can there be so many tricks! I think you are cowardly and afraid, you can't miss the opportunity and don't come again, such a good time, if I don't wait to chase and kill, won't it make the world laugh at me for being brave! ”

Being reminded by Chen Deng, Liu Bei unconsciously remembered Zhou Yu's extremely beautiful handsome face, and hurriedly scolded Zhang Fei.

"The third brother must not be rude! What Yuan Long said is reasonable, you have forgotten that there is still a Zhou Gongjin in Ji Lingjun. This man's strategy is so high that a man like you who has no plans can know it. The order goes down, so that all the troops can only defend the city, and no one should attack rashly! ”

"Brother! Ay! ”

Zhang Fei was very angry, and glared at Chen Deng fiercely, as if saying that Chen Deng had ruined his good deeds.

Outside Huaiyin City, Ji Ling's army gradually withdrew ten miles away. Zhou Yu saw that there was no movement in Huaiyin, his face was slightly shocked, and then he smiled in his heart.

"Hehe, it seems that this Chen Yua

The dragon really has some ability. That's fine, if Liu Xuzhou's soldiers and horses have too many casualties, it won't have much use value. ”

Zhou Yu stood calmly for a while, and then returned to the army, preparing for retreat.

A few days later, Ji Ling's army withdrew from Guangling County and rushed back to Huainan. Although Ji Ling did not capture Xuzhou in this campaign, he eliminated nearly 30,000 elite soldiers of Liu Bei in the battle of Xuyi. After this battle, Liu Bei's vitality was greatly injured and there was no longer a threat to Yuan Shu. In this way, Yuan Shu also felt quite relieved. Reward Ji Ling, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and other meritorious people. Later, Ji Ling reported that the plan for flooding was still from Zhou Yu's hands, and Sun Ce's resistance to Zhang Fei and Pan Feng's courage was also reported in detail. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce are very brilliant in their literature and martial arts, and with such a military general, Yuan Shu is naturally overjoyed, and he also attaches more and more importance to these two people.

Yuan Shu defeated Liu Bei, and the outstanding performances of Zhou Yu and Sun Ce made Yuan Shu's ambition to become emperor even stronger. One day, Yuan Shu summoned Zhou Yu and Sun Ce to discuss. Zhou Yu saw that Yuan Shu couldn't wait to be the emperor, and with the urgency of the current situation, the imperial court seemed to have noticed that Yuan Shu was the emperor, and suggested that Yuan Shu stabilize the rear as soon as possible.

Yuan Shu felt justified and asked Zhou Yu again. Zhou Yu suggested that Yuan Shu send another 20,000 elite soldiers and 100,000 grains and grass to fund Sun Jian to fight the thieves, so that within a month, he would be able to stabilize the overall situation in the rear. At this time, Yuan Shu was already convinced of Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, and there was no doubt that at the moment, according to Zhou Yu's words, he would send another 20,000 elite soldiers and grain and grass to Sun Jian.

Sun Jian originally got 30,000 soldiers and horses from Yuan Shu, and then in the war of Huiji, Jiujiang and Yuzhang, he had to surrender 20,000 soldiers, and at the same time, with the funding of the major wealthy families in Jiangdong, he recruited 10,000 new soldiers, and now he got 20,000 elite soldiers from Yuan Shu, and the number of troops under his command skyrocketed to 80,000 in an instant. More than double the number of troops Sun Jian had a year ago! Of course, among them, 50,000 soldiers were Yuan's soldiers, and not all of these soldiers were loyal to Sun Jian. Although Sun Jian's power is great, it still needs time to stabilize, otherwise once he and Yuan Shu turn their faces, these soldiers will defect, then Sun Jian will be destroyed!
