Chapter 1302: The Fierce Battle of Nanchang (8)
"Lu Ziming, if you want to escape, I will take your head today!!"
Seeing that Zhang Jaw was about to chase closer, Lu Meng suddenly turned around and stabbed out, as if he was fused with the blue-armored giant god, and the momentum was so strong that he actually killed a move back to the horse pistol. Zhang Jaw's complexion changed drastically, and he couldn't expect it. Suddenly, a violent sound of breaking the air erupted. I saw an arrow burst out, and Huo Ran showed a Jinpeng spreading its wings on the arrow. There was a loud bang, and the sudden arrow shot Lu Meng's gun away for a few minutes, and then burst instantly. Lu Meng stared widely, twisted the gun and stabbed it over, and opened his jaw to take advantage of this gap and flash suddenly. The hurricane hit, and when it was a desperate moment, the jaw opened and narrowly avoided it. Lu Meng was furious, and hurriedly put away his gun and retreated. Zhang Jaw had just escaped, and the palpitations were still gone, Jiang Wei rushed over and asked eagerly.
"General Zhang is in a big trouble!?"
Zhang Jaw looked at Jiang Wei, nodded to Jiang Wei with a solemn face, and said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry, Boyo. I'm fine. That Lu Ziming is brave and mighty, and he is also strategic, it is really a big trouble for our army, you and I will go quickly and work together to kill it, so as to prevent future troubles!! ”
Jiang Wei's face froze, and he drank sharply. So Zhang Jaw and Jiang Wei walked side by side, and the two weapons came out together, which was extremely powerful, like two dragon Jiao Tengjiang coming out, killing Wu Bing in a row!
However, it was said that Sun Quan was beating drums in the city to help the battle, and suddenly saw the Wei soldiers all over the mountains suddenly killed, and the battle situation changed dramatically in an instant, and the soldiers and horses of the army were defeated like a mountain, and the dead were countless, and there was a thrilling and terrifying blood in front of him. Sun Quan trembled when he saw it, and the drum stick in his hand fell to the ground, falling into a stupor. Lu Su hurried over, his face was full of sadness, and he persuaded quickly.
"Your Majesty!! At present, our army is lawless, and when we quickly withdraw our troops, we will teach the soldiers in the city to prepare to respond!! ”
Lu Su drank it, and Sun Quan suddenly came back to his senses, looking like crazy, and drank violently. The generals in the city received orders one after another, and hurriedly lowered the suspension bridge and opened the city gate. Suddenly, the sound of the golden horn sounded. The Eastern Wu soldiers retreated in embarrassment, looking at the opening of the Nanchang City Gate and rushing over. Seeing this, the Wei generals immediately led their troops to cover the killing, and the shouting of killing shook the world in an instant, accompanied by bursts of miserable screams. Wu soldiers suffered countless casualties, had no power to fight back, and were wantonly killed and tortured by Wei soldiers. Seeing that the Wu soldiers of all departments rushed into the city, Zhang Jaw and Jiang Wei glanced at each other, shouted loudly, and led the troops to rush wildly, and wanted to seize the city gate. Seeing this, Lu Su's face was cold, and he hurriedly urged the soldiers and horses under the city to enter quickly, and waves of Wu soldiers rushed into the city. Jiang Wei took the lead and rushed to the suspension bridge, and the crescent silver halberd slashed and stabbed, killing the surrounding Wu soldiers and falling into the moat. Suddenly, an order was given from the city, and the arrows fell wildly. Seeing this, Jiang Wei's face was shocked, and he hurriedly danced the crescent silver halberd to resist, and there were many casualties among the Wei soldiers and Wu soldiers in the city. Sun Quan saw that one by one the soldiers of Eastern Wu were shot to death by his own army, and suddenly thundered and roared, and shouted at Lu Sudidi!
"Lu Zijing!! There are still many soldiers in our army who have not entered the city, how dare you give orders without authorization!? ”
Lu Su's face was solemn and ruthless, but a bit of extreme pain flashed in his eyes, and he shouted coldly.
"Wei Kou's soldiers are coming to the city and want to seize the city gate, if they don't give an order, Nanchang will be difficult to protect!!"
After Lu Su finished drinking, he saw that Zhang Jaw led the troops to kill again, and immediately ordered the crossbowmen in the city to send arrows. The rain of arrows covered the sky and fell, and the Wei soldiers and Wu soldiers under the city were shot to death, and the screams, angry shouts, and curses were endless. Seeing this, many Wu soldiers defected and surrendered. Ding Feng, Lu Xun and other generals hurriedly stabilized the morale of the army and led the troops to flee in the direction of the east and west gates. Xiahou Yuan immediately divided his troops to pursue, and taught Wang Ping to lead an army to chase to the east gate, and Xiahou Yuan killed at the west gate. Seeing this, Lu Su quickly sent an order to teach the guards of the east and west gates, be careful, if it is a last resort, do not worry, order to shoot and kill, force Wei Kou back, and do not let Wei Kou take advantage of the chaos to take the city gate. So under the city of Nanchang, there was a scuffle everywhere. Under the north gate, it was particularly intense, Jiang Wei and Zhang Jaw repeatedly raided, and they were forced to retreat by random arrows from the city when they were about to kill at the city gate. Lu Meng led his troops into the city in the rain of arrows, and when Lu Su saw it, he immediately ordered the city gate to be closed. Dozens of Wu soldiers hurriedly pushed and hugged, and there was a loud 'bang'. The north gate is closed. The crossbowmen in the city no longer had any worries, and arrows, flying stones, and rolling logs kept falling. The Wei soldiers were unable to regain momentum, and there were many casualties. At the same time, the east and west gates were also blocked, and the armies of Xiahou Yuan and Wang Ping were repelled by the random arrows in the city.
Cao Cao was on a high mountain somewhere outside the city, watching the battle situation coldly, and seeing everything that happened in time, he saw that Wu soldiers withdrew one after another. Cao Cao showed a bit of a different color and exclaimed.
"This Lu Zijing is just decisive, he understands the overall situation, and he is not a general! ! However, after this battle, the battle situation in Nanchang is decided!! ”
Cao Cao admired Lu Su even more, sighed, and then ordered the flag to wave left and right, and ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops. The sound of the golden horn sounded, and all the Wei soldiers listened to the order and immediately withdrew. The Wu soldiers on the various gates of the city were frightened by the Wei soldiers' momentum, and they were all like losing their souls, seeing the Wei soldiers withdrawing one after another, their tense nerves were loosened, and many of them were paralyzed, crying in grief. In this battle, I don't know how many flesh and blood brothers died, and the situation of Dongwu is becoming more and more critical!
That night, the whole Nanchang City was filled with heaviness and uneasiness, and bursts of wailing and crying sounded from time to time. In the county office, Sun Quan's face was extremely cold, and there was even more grief in his eyes. According to the statistics of the generals, most of the 15,000 soldiers and horses who went out of the city to attack today were lost, and now there are less than 30,000 soldiers left in the city, of which there are nearly 2 or 3,000 wounded soldiers, and there are more than 7 or 8,000 volunteers, which means that there are less than 20,000 elite soldiers and horses left in Sun Quan's hands. Although the Wei soldiers suffered repeated losses, there were still nearly 200,000 soldiers, and there were even siege weapons such as thunderbolts. The Wei soldiers were nearly twenty times the strength of Nanchang City, how could Eastern Wu resist the offensive of the Wei soldiers!?
Sun Quan took a big breath, and swallowed that breath into his abdomen, so cold that he was as cold as cutting off the meat of the intestines, and he was silent. Lu Su, Lu Meng, Lu Xun and other generals all had lonely faces, and their eyes were gloomy. The rest of the generals also bowed their heads and remained silent, almost a thought flashing in their minds.
"In today's situation, Dongwu still has the power to return to heaven!?"
At this moment, a person beat his spirit, slowly came out, and under the eyes of everyone, he gave up.
"Your Majesty! Our army folded this battle, and the strength was greatly reduced, and Wei Kou held a thunderbolt and other siege weapons. I'm afraid that Nanchang City will be difficult to continue for a long time. In Yong's opinion, he could temporarily avoid its edge, withdraw his troops and retreat to Wu County, integrate the soldiers and horses of each county, as well as the volunteers, and fight to the death with Wei Kou. At the same time, he taught a general to rush to Changsha, Guiyang, Jiaozhou and other southwestern places, urging soldiers and horses, and quickly came to Wu County to rush to help, after attacking Wei Kou. In this way, Soochow still has a glimmer of life!! ”
When Sun Quan heard this, he fixed his eyes and looked at it, and the person who gave advice was none other than Gu Yuan, the great Sima of Eastern Wu. A few months ago, Sun Quan had already ordered the generals He Qi and Zhu Zhi to go to the southwest to recruit soldiers and horses. By the time of this calculation, the two have probably completed the collection. Sun Quan was sure in his heart, showing a little joy, and said with his head bowed.
"What Yuan Si said is very true, so according to Yuan Si's opinion, who can go!?"
When Gu Yong heard this, his mind was racing, and after muttering for a while, he said with emotion.
"Lu Boyan is both wise and brave, and he is proficient in strategy, and he can teach him to command the southwest soldiers!!"
After hearing this, Sun Quan and Lu Su and Lu Meng each cast their eyes, and both of them secretly bowed their heads and expressed their agreement. So Sun Quan's expression froze, and he ordered in a deep voice.
"Where is Lu Boyan!?"
Lu Xun heard Sun Quan's call, his eyes lit up instantly, he came out angrily, and he answered.
"Back to the king, Lu Boyan is here!"
"You hold the order of Lonely, quickly lead 3,000 elite soldiers to the southwest, urge the soldiers and horses, complete the preparation as soon as possible, and lead the three armies to Wu County to help!! No mistake!! ”
Sun Quan shouted loudly, and Lu Xun was indignantly ordered. Sun Quan then revised a letter and handed it to Lu Xun along with the military order, and the order was completed. Sun Quan ordered him to pack up and set off that night. Lu Xun's face was solemn, and after saying goodbye to everyone, he quickly withdrew. Not long after Lu Xun left, Lu Su condensed, his eyes shone, and he attended to talk to Sun Quan.
"Wei Kou is fierce, his troops are huge, and he wants to encroach on Eastern Wu, and the ambition of the wolf is obvious. Although we are at a disadvantage nowadays, the king should not worry. We have received the grace of the country and eaten the country's wealth, so we will naturally die for the country. According to Su's opinion, Wei Kou did not have much baggage, and when his baggage was exhausted, his army would inevitably be self-defeating. At present, people can be sent to Wu County along the road, and the officials of each county can be notified all the way, and the baggage of each county will be transferred to Wu County to be gathered, so that Wei Kou will have a hard time supply. But we gathered our troops, duel with Wei Kou in Wu County, and poured all the people of the country into one mind, how can we be afraid of Wei Kou!? ”
As soon as Lu Su said this, Sun Quan's heart was shocked and he was strong. Lu Meng, Ding Feng and other generals also came out one after another, responding sharply. When the generals in the hall heard this, they were all shaken spiritually, and the color of Xiyi was rekindled in their dead eyes. Sun Quan sank his complexion, his energy was vibrant, and his blue eyes suddenly brightened, and he asked in a condensed voice.
"Wei Kou scouts are inquiring outside the city day and night, and if our army wants to withdraw now, if Cao Lao Thief learns about it, he will send troops to attack. Do you have a plan!? ”
As soon as Sun Quan's voice fell, Lu Meng's eyes were full of light, and he said sharply.
"There is a large family of Zhou in the city, and its patriarch is named Zhou Qiang. The king can summon him to see him, and teach him to send the traitors of his clan to work carefully, sneak out of the city, and surrender to the old thief, but inform the old thief that our army will be withdrawn soon. ”
Before Lu Meng could speak, Ding Feng's face suddenly changed when he heard it, and he shouted.
"General Lu taught people to report the movements of our army to the old thief! Do you want to bring down the old thief!? ”
Ding Feng's eyes widened wildly, pointed at Lu Meng angrily, and roared. When Lu Meng heard this, he shook his head and smiled, but he was not angry. Lu Su, who was beside him, realized in his heart, and said to Ding Feng in a condensed voice.
"Cheng Yuan must not be presumptuous!! Ziming is loyal and martyrless, how can he descend to the old thief!? Cheng Yuan didn't know. The old thief has always been suspicious. If you hear that the Zhou clan people report that our army wants to withdraw, they will definitely think it is a fraud and do not move. By the time he found out, we had already evacuated Nanchang!! Zi Ming's plan and the understanding of the old thief's heart are really wonderful!! I might as well too. ”
Lu Su smiled at Lu Meng, but Lu Meng was not arrogant, humbly bowed his hands, and praised falsely. Ding Feng came to his senses and hurriedly apologized to Lu Meng. Lu Meng waved his hand, he had always been good friends with Ding Feng, and he also knew that Ding Feng was impatient, so how could he blame him.
So Sun Quan then summoned Zhou Qiang to meet according to Lu Meng's plan and ordered them one by one. Zhou Qiang received the order, and that night he sought his cousin Zhou Cong to discuss secretly. It is said that this Zhou Cong is cunning and secretly committed adultery with Zhou Qiang's concubine. Zhou Qiang has long had the intention of getting rid of it, but Zhou Cong's line has a lot of influence in the clan. Zhou Qiang didn't dare to act rashly, he heard what Sun Quan said earlier, and he realized in his heart, so he took this opportunity to get rid of Zhou Cong. Zhou Cong saw that the Great Wei army was strong, and he had already had the heart to surrender to the clan, how could Zhou Qiang be pedantic, and when he saw that Zhou Qiang finally opened his mind, he was overjoyed, and he was even more refreshed, thinking that this time he had made a great contribution, Cao Cao must have a reward, and then he would have an official and a half position, and if he wanted to kill Zhou Qiang, wouldn't it be easy to turn back!
