Zongyang is a small city.

The city was low, and the number of defenders in the city was far inferior to that of the Jiangdong army that came to crusade.

The one who led the Jiangdong Army to Zongyang was the fierce generals Zhou Tai and Tai Shici under Sun Ce.

Since coming to Zongyang, Zhou Tai and Tai Shici have taken turns to personally lead troops to attack the city almost every day.

Although the soldiers under Li Shu's command fought hard, there were still Jiangdong troops who often climbed to the top of the city.

Once again, the attack of the Koto Army was repulsed.

Li Shu stood at the head of the city, looking at the Jiangdong Army camp.

The city was besieged continuously, and the walls were already stained with blood.

was bored in his heart, and a lieutenant ran up, lowered his voice and said to Li Shu: "General...... Oh no......"

"How?" Li Shu frowned and asked the captain.

"There's no food in the city." The lieutenant said: "At most, the grain storage is only enough for the army to eat for half a month, and it is still completely without rations for the people." ”

The Jiangdong Army's siege of the city was already very fast, and Li Shu already felt that it was difficult to parry.

Now that there was no food in the city, he slowly closed his eyes and sighed in despair.

"Pass the order, and leave all the rations for the soldiers." Li Shu said: "The people in the city let them figure it out on their own. ”

"But in this way, the people may be in chaos." The lieutenant reminded.

"Whoever dares to mess around, kill!" Li Shu said: "If there is really no ration, it is better to let the people get some bark and grass roots to feed their stomachs than to starve to death." ”

"Bark and grass roots have been eaten for a long time." The lieutenant said, "The trees in the city are almost stripped, and where is the grass on the ground......

Li Shu was upset by what he said, and glared at the lieutenant fiercely: "Go and give the order." ”

Knowing that it was useless to say too much, there was no food in the city, and Li Shu couldn't change anything, so the captain had to retreat.

Looking out of the city again, Li Shu's face became even more ugly.

He somewhat regretted betraying Sun Quan.

Therefore, he rebelled because he thought that Sun Quan's inheritance of Sun Ce's position was incomprehensible.

Sun Ce is not without heirs.

Although he is dead, it should be Sun Ce's son who inherits Jiangdong, but the partial lord of Jiangdong is Sun Quan.

I want to get an answer from the Sun family, but where will the Sun family look at him as a little general?

With a long sigh, Li Shu shouted to the soldiers at the head of the city: "Soldiers, reinforcements are coming, hold the city for me, and when the Jiangdong Army withdraws, I will celebrate with the soldiers." ”

No one responded.

Li Shu has already said the same thing two or three times.

When I said it for the first time, the soldiers were still excited for a long time.

But they waited left and right, repelled countless attacks by the Jiangdong Army, but there was still no trace of reinforcements.

The heart is cold and the heart is discouraged, and many people are willing to defend to the death, which is nothing more than understanding that once the city is broken, they will be cut off by the Jiangdong Army.

In order to survive, even if they knew that Li Shu was lying, they could only assume that reinforcements would really come.

There is no food in Zongyang City.

When Li Shu was disheartened, Pang Tong, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and Ju Yi led 10,000 soldiers and were rushing to Lujiang.

Ju Yi took the lead in the camp to open the way, and Yan Liang and Wen Chou accompanied Pang Tong.

"Li Shu is also true, if he doesn't ask for help as soon as possible, he will not ask his son for help until the city is broken." Yan Liang said as he walked: "When we feel Lujiang, we don't know what Zongyang has become. ”

"He first sent someone to ask Cao Gong for help, but only after being rejected did he think of Gongzi." Pang Tong said: "The people who reported the news came and went, and it would take a month to say the least. According to Huowu's report, the commanders of the Jiangdong Army are Zhou Tai and Tai Shici, both of whom are fierce generals in the world, and it is not easy for Li Shu to hold on for so long. ”

"Fortunately, the son values affection." Wen Chou said: "If Gongzi doesn't care about him, I'm afraid that Li Shu will definitely die this time." ”

"How could Childe leave him alone." Pang Tong said: "Zongyang is north of the Yangtze River, if it falls into the hands of Jiangdong people, it will cause a lot of trouble for Gongzi in the future." ”

"It seems that Li Shu still bargained for a big bargain." Yan Liang asked: "General Ju led the lead to the camp first, they only have eight hundred people, will they be too thin when they arrive outside Zongyang City?" ”

"I have already agreed with General Ju that when I reach the outside of Zongyang City, I will not attack the enemy army." Pang Tong said: "General Ju went there, the most important thing is to let Li Shu know that Gongzi has sent someone to help. In addition, I also asked Captain Chen Wu of the Fire Dance Battalion to sneak into Zongyang and inform Li Shu that our army is heading towards the Lujiang River, and I ask him to hold it! ”

"The Jiangdong Army is besieging Zongyang, and Captain Chen Wu has such great ability to sneak into the city without being detected by the enemy?" Wen Chou shook his head and said, "Why don't I believe ...... so much?"

"Chen Wu and Liu Shuang, the two lieutenants, were the first to follow Gongzi." Pang Tong said: "The two of them don't know their skills yet, let alone the little Zongyang, even if Chang'an and Luoyang are besieged by the army, as long as they want to go in, isn't it like entering their own courtyard wall?" ”

There were also some days of working with Pang Tong, Yan Liang and Wen Chou until he didn't like to exaggerate much.

The two looked at each other in amazement, and Yan Liang said: "No wonder they all say that the fire dance is good, with such a skill, it is difficult to think of it." ”

Pang Tong led the army to Zongyang, and Ju Yi led the first camp all the way to the south.

Li Shu, who was already desperate, didn't know this yet.

Since the Jiangdong army attacked the city, he has not gone down the city wall, and his spirit is extremely tense every day.

After staying up for many days in a row, Li Shu finally couldn't hold it anymore.

Leaning against the battlements, he fell asleep.

The food and grass in the city were gone, and the soldiers were also in despair, so in order to prevent someone from tying him up and handing him over to the Jiangdong army while he was asleep, when Li Shu was asleep, several soldiers he trusted were fully armed and guarded aside.

In the shadows, a figure jumped up the battlements and jumped onto the city.

"Who?" A soldier guarding Li Shu hurriedly shouted, and several soldiers all raised their weapons.

The soldiers on the city wall opened their eyes one after another, stood up one by one, and put on a posture ready to face the battle.

"I'm Chen Wu, the captain of the Fire Dance School under the command of the Cao family's son." The black shadow said a word: "I specially came to see General Li at night and informed the general that Gongzi had sent a large army to come to help, and asked the general to guard for a few more days." ”

The noise had already woken Li Shu.

Hearing that Cao Shuo had sent someone to come, he hurriedly stood up and shouted ecstatically: "The envoy of Zirong Gongzi, please show up and see you!" ”

Chen Wu walked out of the shadows, clasped his fists at Li Shu and said, "Fire Dance Captain Chen Wu, I've seen General Li!" ”

"Captain Chen!" It was already a matter of life and death, and Li Shu didn't care about distinguishing the truth from the fake, so he stepped forward to hold Chen Wu's hands, and said with tears in his eyes: "I finally looked forward to you!" ”

"It's useless to hope for me, the army will arrive in two days." Chen Wu said: "General Ju Yi led the lead to the camp and is almost outside the city, and early tomorrow morning, General Li should be able to see the battle flag of our army." ”
