Chapter 308: The General Loses Harmony
Zhou Yu's words aroused the dissatisfaction of many people present.
Zhang Zhao has been conscientious and conscientious over the years, working tirelessly for the Sun family, and even in order to help Sun Quan recruit troops to resist Jinfan's invasion, he also hollowed out most of his family wealth, and a few days ago, he even put his eldest son in, it is no exaggeration to say that Zhang Zhao has done everything he can for the Sun family.
But Zhou Yu even questioned Zhang Zhao's loyalty, which is obviously unacceptable to many people.
Zhou Yu smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, he was just a momentary outspokenness, in fact, he himself still respected Zhang Zhao very much.
"Gong Jin, you should have made enough trouble, right?" Sun Quan's face was like frost, and a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes, "Since you insist on staying in Wu County to defend against Jinfan, then I will leave five thousand soldiers with you to see if you can help me Jiangdong defeat Jinfan!" β
Zhou Yu was taken aback: "Five thousand!?" β
"What? Is it too little? Sun Quan sneered, "Fighting a war is not something that can be won by numbers alone, this is what you said yourself, I think with your wisdom, with the advantage of the city, five thousand men and horses should be enough to win, right?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Hearing this, Zhou Yu was speechless for a while.
He knew that Sun Quan was ironizing himself with his own words, and he also regarded him as an outcast.
What can 5,000 troops do?
Of course, it was to buy time for Sun Quan to evacuate, and from another aspect, it could be regarded as a disguised withdrawal of military power in his hands.
"What? Don't have faith? Or are you reluctant to stay? Sun Quan pressed step by step.
At this moment, Zhou Yu's heart was as dark as ashes. smiled dismally, and replied expressionlessly: "Since this is what the lord wants, then I will do my best to protect Wu County." β
Sun Quan smiled triumphantly. He also deliberately stepped forward to hold Zhou Yu's hand, and said with a fake compliment: "In this way, the safety of my Jiangdong depends entirely on Gongjin......
Zhou Yu glanced at Sun Quan's hypocritical smiling face lightly, withdrew his hand, and without saying anything, he turned around and left the hall.
Sun Quan's smile froze there instantly. The look in Zhou Yu's eyes when he left was like a dagger stabbed into his heart, almost tearing his arrogant self-esteem to pieces.
What kind of look was that? Disappointed. Contempt, disdain, disgust...... Good Zhou Gongjin, am I in your heart. Is it really that unbearable?
Sun Quan clenched his fists. The eyes were gloomy, and he already hated Zhou Yu to the bones.
"I don't know why you are so arrogant and domineering, you can completely ignore me as a lord, but you wait and see, time will prove that I am right and you are wrong, it's a pity. Maybe that day, you will never be able to wait! β
Sun Quan didn't think that Zhou Yu could defeat Jinfan's 30,000 lions with 5,000 troops in his hands. He left Zhou Yu to garrison Wu County, one to gain time, the other to regain military power, and the third to purely out of sight.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Wu County is the seat of governance in Jiangdong, and almost all the family members of officials are in Wu County, not only a large number of personnel, but also many old and weak women and children.
Fortunately, Sun Quan had given the order a few days earlier, so every household had already packed up in advance.
Sun Quan appointed his uncle Sun Jing as the lieutenant general, and the general Zhu Ran and his cousin Sun Jiao as the captains, commanding an army of 15,000 and escorting more than 3,000 officials' families out of the south gate of Wu County, and marching towards Youquan County in the south.
On the city wall, Zhou Yu looked at the crowd in the distance, and inexplicably remembered the late Sun Ce in his heart, and couldn't help but feel sad......
"Governor ......" Zhou Yu was on the side, and the general Ling Cao wanted to speak and stopped.
"Aren't you really going together?" Zhou Yu interrupted Ling Cao and asked lightly, "You must know that if you stay here, you may be in a big disaster soon!" β
LΓΌ Meng, Deng Dang, Ling Cao, and Wu Cang, these are the only four civil and military forces in Jiangdong who are willing to stay with Zhou Yu.
Lu Meng smiled: "The governor said that he laughed, why should the eldest husband die?" Where the governor is, I will wait! β
Wu Cang said: "What Ziming said is also what I think, although Cang is not good at leading troops to fight, but he can also share the internal troubles for the governor!" β
Ling Cao sighed: "The lord's move is too cold-blooded and ruthless, if Wu Hou (Sun Ce) is still here, why is my Jiangdong so down?" β
"Alright, don't say any more!" Zhou Yu waved his hand and said, "Since the four of you are willing to stay and help me, you should try your best to compete with me Jinfan, so that you can live up to the spirit of Bo Fu in the sky!" β
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
In the evening, Wang Chong led his army to camp dozens of miles north of Wu County.
Although from the information sent by Wu County, Wang Chong learned that Sun Quan had moved south, but he was not in a hurry to attack the city, one was late, and the other was that Wu County's guard was Zhou Yu, and this alone was enough to make him cheer up the spirit.
The handsome will be out of harmony!
Sun Quan and Zhou Yu had a complete falling out, which made Wang Chong feel very good, because it was too beneficial to Jinfan, after all, as long as they could capture Zhou Yu in this siege battle, the remaining Jiangdong army would no longer be a threat in Wang Chong's eyes.
5,000 centaurs? No matter how god Zhou Yu is, he is also a human being, as long as he is vigilant enough to not let the other party have a chance to sneak attack, the other party will not even have a chance to win.
Day 2.
On the empty field, the drums were noisy, and the 30,000 sails with neat military appearance were lined up outside the city of Wu County, and the soldiers who were as dense as ants made the defenders in the city tingle.
Wang Chong knew that with Zhou Yu's loyalty to the Sun family, it was useless to persuade him to surrender, and the other party would definitely not agree, so he was not prepared to waste time, but directly issued the order to attack the city.
"Get on the Thunderbolt!!"
Click......
With Wang Chong's order, nearly twenty thunderbolts were slowly pushed into front of the battle by Jinfan's soldiers.
Bang Bang -
But at this moment, an unexpected scene happened.
Jinfan's thunderbolt car had not yet started, but countless boulders flew out of Wu County first.
Boom Boom Boom Boom !!
"This ......" watched the boulder that fell from the sky crash in front of the formation, not only killing a lot of Jinfan soldiers, but also damaging several thunderbolts, which suddenly made Wang Chong's face change greatly, and he gasped, "How is this possible!?" How could the opposing party's catapult have such a long range!? (To be continued.) )
