Back in the camp, Zhou Yu saw that the Jiangdong ministers were all depressed, and his heart was also sad, now Cheng Pu is dead, the old ministers in the army who fought with Sun Jian in the past, only Huang Gai is left, and life and death are uncertain, such bad news, for the next attack on Hefei, quite unfavorable, and this less than two hours of siege warfare, Jiangdong military horses were not small, a large number of siege equipment was burned by the Cao army, Zhou Yu's original unwavering belief in capturing the city, but also shaken, but now, if you storm the city again, it is only in vain to send the lives of the soldiers, it is better to calm down, Think again.

Counting the battle damage, Zhou Yu couldn't help but sigh, 50,000 military horses attacked the city, more than 20,000 dead and wounded, and Cao Cao's military horses at the head of the city were almost uninjured.

Seeing that all the generals in the camp had no fighting spirit, Zhou Yu sighed lightly and was silent.

Lu Su saw that Zhou Yu was at a loss, thought for a moment, and said to Zhou Yu: "Don't worry about Gongjin, if you occupy Hefei, you can also mobilize military horses from Lujiang, this time to conquer Cao Cao, Zhongmou General Zhongzhong, all the power to hand over Gongjin, a battle of victory or defeat, does not affect the overall situation of my Jiangdong expansion!" ”

When Zhou Yu heard this, his face improved slightly, but he remembered that the general of this army had been defeated by Zhang Liao several people in a row, and he was depressed and angry, Zhou Yu also knew that in this army, it was difficult for a general to be able to defeat that Zhang Liao's might, in Zhou Yu's view, Jiangdong could fight against Zhang Liao immediately, except for Tai Shi Ci, it was Zhou Tai, how could these two have military affairs, Tai Shi Ci had to pacify the mountains and make chaos, and Zhou Tai had to guard the Lujiang River to prevent Jingxiang military horses from taking advantage of the weakness.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but regret in his heart, he knew that this was the case, so he didn't use the advantage of the more soldiers to storm the city.

Diametrically opposed to the dull Jiangdong camp outside the city, in Hefei City, Cao Ying's military horses were all jubilant, that is, Guo Jia was also excited about the previous results, if it was not for the opportunity to change, send Zhang Liao out of the city to kill, this Jiangdong military horse is afraid that it has entered the city at this time, thinking of the scene of many Jiangdong soldiers boarding the city before, Guo Jia is also difficult to calm, cold sweat.

Anyway, it was a victory, more precisely, it repelled Zhou Yu's first wave of attack, Guo Jia knew Zhou Yu's plan in his heart, this time against Hefei, Shouchun and Jiangdong, although he killed a lot of Jiangdong soldiers in the previous battle, but Zhou Yu would not stop because of the defeat in the first battle.

Seeing Guo Jia's thoughtful expression, Zhang Liao was puzzled in his heart, and said to Guo Jia: "This big victory, why is Fengxiao depressed?" ”

"Although he won a game, he should not underestimate Zhou Yu's scheming, this person has extraordinary skills in the way of commanding troops, Wen Yuan has ever remembered that this guy only beat drums and cheered in front of the camp, and the Jiangdong soldiers under his command are not afraid of death?" Guo Jia's face was deep, and he sighed lightly: "With Guo's understanding of Zhou Yu, the next time he attacks me in Hefei, I am afraid that the means will be even more powerful, and now Guo is not sure, to ensure that Hefei is not lost, and he has to do his best to defend the city and obey the destiny of heaven." ”

When Zhang Liao heard this, he nodded slightly, and said to Guo Jia: "It's better to send someone to get along with Cheng for help." ”

"It's Xu Du's military horses, and they are also stretched, how can the prime minister have military horses to help me Hefei?" Guo Jia smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said to Zhang Liao: "Fortunately, there are a lot of materials in my city, and now I can order soldiers to repair the city defense, and prevent the army outside the city from coming again." ”

The news of a big war in Hefei, just a few days, was learned by the princes of various families, Sun Quan knew that Cheng Pu was dead, and cried bitterly in the hall, Cheng Pu was loyal to the Sun family, and made countless meritorious deeds, but now he swore to die in Hefei, and died from falling into the city, Sun Quan gritted his teeth, wrote a letter, sent it to Zhou Yu, and informed Zhou Yu, but in a few days, Jiangdong had military horses crossing the river, and the person who led the team was the general Tai Shici, as for Shanyue taking the opportunity to make trouble, Sun Quan led the army to march in person, although he was not allowed to fight with Cao's army in Jiangbei, but Sun Quan also decided blatantly, For the soldiers to go on the expedition, to relieve their worries.

Changsha Taishou Mansion, Pang Shanmin learned the news of Hefei, sighed, before letting Cheng Pu a way out, never thought that this was only a few months, Cheng Pu still died on the battlefield, Zhou Yu is difficult to break Hefei, for Pang Shanmin, although it is a good thing, but Pang Shanmin's heart, there is no trace of joy.

Pang Tong saw Pang Shanmin's sad face, his heart was strange, and he said to Pang Shanmin: "Cheng Pu's death is a happy event for me Jingxiang, but why is my brother worried? ”

"Spare his life before, General Cheng did not fall in Jiangxia, but died in Hefei, Pang Mou sighed in his heart, this general's death is regrettable." Pang Shanmin said, but Pang Tong couldn't help laughing, and said to Pang Shanmin: "How can there be immortals on the battlefield?" Now the situation in Hefei, in the heart of the Tong is very good, Guo Jia and that Zhou Yu stalemate, this Hefei, the two princes' military horses must die more and more, and I Jingxiang, you can sit back and watch the two princes grudge, in the long run, whether Hefei is finally obtained by Jiangdong, or Guo Jia under the guard, solid as gold, to my Jingxiang, are beneficial. ”

What Pang Tong said was true, but Pang Shanmin still felt a little pity in his heart, Cheng Pu died a heroic death in Hefei City, such a loyal minister, if Pang Shanmin had known that he would end up like this, how could he let him go after the first battle of Jiangxia?

Although Pang Shanmin is also like Pang Tong, hoping that the battle of Hefei will make the Sun Cao family have a long-term relationship, but they do not want to hear the news of the death of the generals in the two armies.

When Pang Shanmin and Pang Tong said something in front of him, Pang Tong couldn't help laughing, and said to Pang Shanmin: "Brother is in such a mood, Pang also understands, but looking at today's troubled world, there are many heroes, and my brother can make friends with them all?" At the time of the group of heroes, Pang Tong knew his brother's preferences, and now it seems that his brother fought the world on the long march, in addition to wanting to calm the troubled times, he also wanted to meet the heroes of the world. ”

Hearing this, Pang Shanmin nodded slightly, and said to Pang Tong: "As Shiyuan said, all the princes have respectable people, Pang can't wait to get them all, although Pang knows that this kind of greed is not advisable, but if you can't be friends with it, you can compete with it on the battlefield, and look at its demeanor, which is also a long-cherished wish in Pang's heart." ”

Just as he was sighing, another soldier entered the hall, and after seeing Pang Shanmin, he bowed down and said: "General, someone from Xichuan is here, and there is a letter to send!" ”

When Pang Shanmin heard this, he took the letter, spread it out, and smiled at Pang Tong: "Kong Ming's army has passed the Jiameng Pass, Zhang Lu is really defenseless, and now he has broken through several cities in a row, and the momentum is like a bamboo!" ”
