Chapter 580: The Battle of Destroying Cao (42)
From this moment on, Jiang Wei and Zhuge Liang frequently fought each other within a hundred miles of Hanzhong and Yangping Pass. Yuan Xi also helped many times, but Zhuge Liang was as cunning as a fox and could always get out of danger.
Sometimes, he can still have the upper hand.
It wasn't until Jiang Wei's 20,000 infantry troops arrived in Hanzhong that Zhuge Liang realized that it was impossible to capture Hanzhong. After leaving more than 1,000 soldiers to feint and break off, he led his army back to the Sword Pavilion at night.
...............
The battle of the Central Plains entered a phase of stalemate.
Cao Cao and Liu Bei were both trapped and unable to move.
Zhang Liao, who originally went to Xuchang to rescue Cao Cao, led 60,000 elites to go, but was also blocked by Hao Zhao. Although the battle was difficult, Cao Cao was still not rescued.
At this time, there was a breakthrough in the battle situation in Yangzhou.
The 50,000 Yuan troops who confronted Li Tong in Huainan successfully attacked Huainan.
Kill Li Tong and capture Huainan.
This means that Zhou Yu, who is attacking Shouchun, will face the threat of 50,000 Yuan troops. Yu Ban, Li Dian, and Le Jin, who are stationed in Shouchun, will also have an easier time defending the city.
Zhou Yu's camp.
Lu Su was ordered by Sun Quan to come to give the order. Let Zhou Yu retreat to Hefei.
In other words, let Zhou Yu give up this war.
The reason is very simple, because Huainan has been lost, and Yuan's army has 50,000 more troops. And Zhou Yu has a total of more than 40,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and the disparity in strength is too great.
"Governor, judging from the current situation, it is indeed not suitable to fight with the Yuan army, and it makes sense for the lord to let you withdraw from the army." In the tent, Lu Su persuaded.
"What's the point? DID YOU KNOW... This is our last chance. If we can't capture the whole territory of Yangzhou, when Yuan Xi destroys Cao Liu, we will no longer have the possibility of winning. Zhou Yu said.
"But the lord's military order..."
"I, Zhou Yu, have made great achievements, repeatedly committed crimes, and have disobeyed the lord's military orders more than once. Why not one more time now? Zhou Yu said.
"The Governor of the Metropolitan must not." Lu Su persuaded: "The lord's military order must not be done. What's more, Huainan has been lost, and there are 50,000 Yuan troops coming to Shouchun, if you insist on it, I am afraid that there will be a great disaster. ”
Zhou Yu smiled: "Isn't it just 50,000 Yuan Jun, why be so alarmed?" Zijing, to tell you the truth, if there were no 50,000 Yuan troops to help, I might not be able to capture Shouchun. But when they came, I had a chance. ”
Zhou Yu seems to have a strategy to break the enemy.
Lu Su asked puzzledly: "Why is this?" ”
Zhou Yu said: "You want to." Before Yu Ban fought with us, he knew that he was invincible, and he retreated in the city. According to my inquiry, he even sealed the city gate, and he should have planned to defend Shouchun and never go out of the city to fight. For us, this is the most annoying, because Shouchun Castle has thick walls and is really difficult to overcome. And now it's different, with 50,000 Yuan troops here, I can have many opportunities to lure Yu Ban. It is impossible for him to sit idly by and watch the 50,000 Yuan army outside the city be wiped out by me. Are you right? ”
"That's true."
Lu Su agreed with Zhou Yu's view.
"But the lord's military orders must not be violated..."
"Zijing, don't tell me about the military order again. will be outside, and the king's orders will not be accepted, not to mention that I, Zhou Yu, have never listened to orders. Zhou Yu walked to the map and punched Shouchun: "This time I send troops, I have to take Yangzhou, no one can stop me!" ”
Lu Su couldn't persuade Zhou Yu.
He can only return to Jianye to resume his life.
During this time, Zhou Yu fought fiercely with Yu Ban and tens of thousands of Yuan troops who came from Huainan.
.......
Zhou Yu deserves to be a famous general in the world.
In just a few days, the Yuan army that had arrived from Huainan was defeated, and Yu Ban was also trapped in a low valley in order to go out of the city to rescue. Zhou Yu dug the reservoir and dispersed the forbidden army.
After that, attack Shouchun.
This time, there is no forbidden, no army.
It only took a few hours for Zhou Yu to break through the city.
Since then, Shouchun, the Yangzhou Governance Office, has fallen into the hands of Zhou Yu.
A few days later.
The battle report spread to Huainan.
Yuan Xi led 30,000 troops to help, but unfortunately he was a step late: "Zhou Gongjin actually defeated my 100,000 army one after another, and also captured Shouchun City. Yu Ban, Li Dian, and Le Jin were all captured by him. ”
"I didn't expect Zhou Yu to have such a strategy, I underestimated him before." Judge the way.
"I never underestimated Zhou Yu, but I didn't want to fight Sun Quan head-on, so I didn't lead the main force to come." Yuan Xi stared at the map and said with some annoyance: "This time I came to Yangzhou in person, I will definitely defeat Zhou Yu!" ”
"I'm willing to listen to the Lord's command." The generals said.
"Good. We are in Shouchun, give Zhou Yu a little bit of a good look. Yuan Xi said: "Immediately send orders to all battalions and march towards Shouchun to meet Zhou Yu." ”
"No..."
Yuan Xi led 30,000 troops to Shouchun.
This is about the same as Zhou Yu's current strength.
However, Zhou Yu seized Shouchun and obtained the resources in Shouchun City, not only with many equipment to defend the city, but also with a large amount of grain and grass. If he insists on not fighting, it will be quite troublesome.
Arriving in Shou Chun soon.
Jia Xu admonished: "This attack on Shouchun may not necessarily be a hard battle. ”
"What does Wen He mean?"
"The minister knows that Zhou Yu and Sun Quan are at odds, and they have repeatedly committed crimes, if the lord can take advantage of this to make Zhou Yu be removed from the army, then Shouchun will be at his fingertips." Jia Xu said.
"Is that possible?"
"I don't think it's difficult..." Jia Xu smiled and said: "When we arrived outside Shouchun City, we besieged but did not attack, confronted Zhou Yu, and then the lord wrote to Zhou Yu to induce him to say something rebellious. Zhou Yu has always been arrogant, and if he doesn't take Sun Quan in his eyes, he will definitely not be defenseless. After that, we try to send these letters to Sun Quan, and Sun Quan will be furious. Even if Zhou Yu is not dismissed, there will be many gaps, resulting in discord between the generals and commanders in the army, and the lord will take advantage of the situation to attack the city and win the battle. ”
Yuan Xi nodded and said, "It's not a hassle to write a letter, when I get to Shouchun City, I'll try it." ”
............
Lu Su returned to Jiangdong Jianye.
He reported all of Zhou Yu's words to Sun Quan.
Sun Quan knew that Zhou Yu was disrespectful to him, and often disobeyed military orders, but he didn't seem suspicious, but at the moment of the great enemy, Yuan Xi had already arrived in Yangzhou, and seeing that a big war was about to start, Sun Quan couldn't help but worry.
"Zijing, I want to dismiss Gongzun, what do you think?" Sun Quan said suddenly.
"Never. If the lord rashly recalls, first, no one can replace respect, and second, the soldiers are not satisfied, and many things will happen, so it is better to wait for the end of the war in Yangzhou, and then it is not too late to recall. Lu Su said.
"But I just received the news that Yuan Xi has personally led the army to Shouchun, and I am worried that Gong Jin is not Yuan Xi's opponent, once defeated... Do you know that the tens of thousands of soldiers in Zhou Yu's hands are all the elites of my Jiangdong. Sun Quan said worriedly.
"Even so, you can't dismiss respect, now only he can fight against Yuan Xi. Please also think twice. ”
"Ugh...."
Sun Quan now regrets it in particular.
If Zhou Yu had been dismissed earlier, Jiangdong would not have been in danger.
"Do you really want to fight Yuan Xi?" Sun Quan sat down slowly, really worried.
