Chapter 928: Zhou Yu fights Xiangyang
Zhuge Liang understood that Zhou Yu would definitely not attack Xiangyang, but his large formation would not be in vain.
Zhou Yu wants to win Jingzhou and divide the decisive battle with himself, so if it is a tough battle, it is obvious that Zhou Yu's chances of winning are very low.
The result of such consumption and price is obviously very unworthy, and this is definitely not the result that Zhou Yu wants to see.
If Zhou Yu chooses such a result, then he may prefer to withdraw his troops directly, at least in this way, for Zhou Yu, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses can be saved.
If these soldiers and horses were used to defend Jiangdong, they would be much more useful than using them to storm Xiangyang.
Then if this is the case, there is only one choice for them, and that is to find a way to make themselves have to go out of the city to fight.
It's just that this time Zhou Yu will use what method, Zhuge Liang is not good at judging for a while.
After all, it has come to this point, and for Zhou Yu, there are naturally a lot of places to choose.
Outside Xiangyang City, the camp of Zhou Yu's army at this time was almost double the size of the previous one.
However, it is precisely because of this that Gan Ning and them can see a rough outline.
As for the situation inside the camp, it is naturally impossible to see it.
Otherwise, wouldn't they all know every move of Zhou Yu's army, obviously Zhou Yu would not be so stupid.
In fact, even now, it is something that Zhou Yu did intentionally.
The reason why Zhou Yu did this was naturally because he had his ideas.
Zhou Yu did this, he deliberately wanted Zhuge Liang at the head of Xiangyang City and those soldiers at the head of Xiangyang City to be able to see and understand.
Of course, Zhou Yu's main purpose is to let those soldiers at the head of Xiangyang City see clearly.
In the past few days, Zhou Yu has been constantly transferring troops from Jiangxia, and some of the soldiers who were considered half of the recruits who were not needed were transferred over.
So in the past few days, Zhou Yu's army and camp have been expanding, and every day it seems that there are countless people and horses going there.
In this way, for those soldiers guarding the head of Xiangyang City, what would they think in their hearts when they saw that Zhou Yu had so many soldiers?
The more people in Zhou Yu's army, the greater the pressure on their hearts.
Although Zhou Yu's army did not attack the city, even they knew that Xiangyang was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
However, there were more and more people in Zhou Yu's army, as if they would storm Xiangyang at any time.
It is true that Xiangyang is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, which does not mean that there is no way to break through.
So gradually, in the hearts of some soldiers, the more soldiers Zhou Yu had, the more afraid they were in their hearts.
This Zhou Yu's army is getting sharper and sharper like a knife hanging over his head, and he doesn't know what is falling.
And these are all what Zhou Yu wants to see, and they have indeed achieved a certain effect.
"Governor, now our army outside Xiangyang City has nearly 50,000 people, if we plan properly and storm Xiangyang, I'm afraid it is not impossible."
Zhou Tai looked at Zhou Yu and said with a smile, with a little excited.
After listening to Zhou Tai's words, Zhou Yu glanced at Zhou Tai, and it was not surprising that Zhou Yu could say such a thing with Zhou Tai's character.
It's just that for Zhou Yu, of course he just listens to it, such a suggestion, it is simply to treat Zhuge Liang as a fool.
If the person guarding the city is not Zhuge Liang, perhaps he has a clever strategy, and the enemy army will be self-defeating.
But for Zhuge Liang, it is very difficult, almost impossible, to use this close method to lure the enemy to attack Xiangyang.
"General Zhou, the Metropolitan Governor does not intend to storm Xiangyang, and now there are Tai Shici and Gan Ning in Xiangyang leading the men and horses into the city."
"If we attack Xiangyang, I'm afraid that our army won't be able to conquer it even if it is completely lost."
"What's more, forty or fifty thousand horses, once they are lost, just to get a Xiangyang, this must not be a cost-effective thing."
Although Zhou Yu didn't speak, Han Dang on the side followed Zhou Yu's side.
These days, he more or less understands what Zhou Yu wants to do?
If Zhou Yu wanted to storm Xiangyang, then it would not be so fanfare.
Isn't this clearly telling the other party, it's better to hide it and not send it, and then you can attack Xiangyang by surprise.
Surprise them by surprise, and the effect may be much better.
"Then the Metropolitan Governor, what do we want when there are so many of us?"
Zhou Tai was stunned for a moment after listening to Han Dang's words, and then after he reacted, he immediately looked at Zhou Yu and asked.
Zhou Tai always thought that there would be a hard battle to fight, and with so many people, it would inevitably be very fierce at that time.
Compared with those twists and turns, Zhou Tai felt that it was still a real fight, which was more enjoyable.
"Xiangyang is naturally going to attack, but it's a feint, not a strong attack, and I have my own arrangements for the rest."
Zhou Yu glanced at Zhou Tai and then said lightly, this can be regarded as an explanation.
It is not cost-effective to storm Xiangyang, so it can only be the most reliable to lure Zhuge Liang's army out of Xiangyang.
When the time comes, there will be no city walls to rely on, and once the battle starts, the casualties will be more evenly balanced.
As long as the soldiers and horses of Xiangyang and Fancheng are wiped out by themselves, then how can the soldiers and horses in other parts of Jingzhou be their opponents.
So the most important thing now is to defeat Zhuge Liang's soldiers and horses.
Nanjun fought with the public security, but he still underestimated Zhuge Liang, thinking that if he was trapped in Xiangyang, then he would have no room to play.
But the result is that Zhuge Liang has already made arrangements, so there is the current situation.
The next day, Zhou Yu officially launched an attack on Xiangyang according to the plan.
Although this time it was a feint and just a show, acting, Zhou Yu was also very dedicated.
Besides, this feint, although it is said to be a feint, can only be done by relying on the soldiers to pay for their lives.
So to some extent, this can't be considered acting, because there is no chance to start over.
"Zhuge Kongming, today our army is pressing the border, if you know each other, hurry up and surrender, my lord will definitely treat him with courtesy, how about it?"
Zhou Yu looked at Zhuge Liang at the head of the city and immediately spoke, as if everything was already in his calculations.
"Kong Ming understands what the metropolitan governor means, but for Kong Ming, these are not what I want."
"I understand your lord's kindness, but if the Metropolitan Governor wants to take Xiangyang, it depends on the Metropolitan Governor's ability."
Zhuge Liang looked at Zhou Yu and replied with a smile.
Of course, Zhuge Liang is clear, Zhou Yu said this on purpose, and his siege today is just a show.
Since Zhou Yu wants to act, then of course he wants to act with him.
Anyway, he doesn't suffer a loss, and no matter whether he acts or not, it can't change the situation that Zhou Yu wants to attack Xiangyang today.
However, for Zhou Yu's attack this time, Zhuge Liang was originally expected, and this means that Zhou Yu will have other actions soon.
"Siege." Zhou Yu didn't say anything after listening to Zhuge Liang's words, and directly ordered the siege of the city.
It's useless to say more at this point, and it's a part of the plan that has to be taken.
The drums of war began to sound, and the morning, which had been somewhat quiet, suddenly became murderous.
Zhou Tai took the lead, risking the arrows and stones, and launched an attack on Xiangyang.
In Zhou Tai's opinion, there is no feint or not, if he can work hard to conquer this Xiangyang, then this so-called feint will become real.
Of course, Gan Ning and Tai Shici will not be idle at the head of the city, and the two of them are also fully armed, and when a soldier climbs to the top of the city, the two of them will take action.
Zhuge Liang quietly looked at the head and bottom of the city.
"Come on, take out the prepared repeater."
Zhuge Liang gave an order, and then some soldiers obeyed the order.
Gan Ning and Tai Shici have some expectations. This is finally going to be used.
