Chapter Thirty-Six: Re-plotting, Deception

The coldest part of the winter has passed, the weather is gradually getting better, and the snow is not so heavy anymore.

At this time, in the Guiyang County Guard's Mansion, Zhang Yi paced back and forth in the hall with a gloomy face, but in his heart he was thinking about what Liu Xiu said on the battlefield: Indeed, there is no free lunch in this world, Zhou Yu helps himself so much, it is absolutely impossible to say that there is no purpose at all, but Zhou Yu did not say this purpose clearly, only to prevent Liu Xiu from unifying Jingnan, which is very fraudulent.

Zhang Yi thought about it, his trust in Zhou Yu has decreased a lot, and he has allocated thousands of people to Tai Shi Ci in recent days, if they really plan again, then he is really in danger.

Just when he was thinking about it, someone outside the door came to report,

"Report! Zhou Yu asks to see! ”

Zhou Yu came so soon, Zhang Yi was still very worried about what Liu Xiu said, and secretly decided to take back the thousands of troops in his heart, so he said: "Let him in!" ”

Zhang Yi was obviously no longer as polite as he had been a few days ago

"I've seen General Zhang!" Zhou Yu greeted politely.

"Yes!" Zhang Yi replied flatly: "I don't know what Mr. Zhou is here for?" ”

As soon as Zhou Yu saw Zhang Yi's attitude, he already knew in his heart that this Zhang Yi had already begun to mind what Liu Xiu said, but with Zhou Yu's arrogance, he naturally wouldn't explain much, and began to talk about the purpose: "General Zhang, now Liu Xiu not only has many soldiers and horses, but also a lot of fierce generals, and we can't be the enemy head-on."

When Zhang Yi heard this, his expression changed, and he was obviously attracted by this matter, and he no longer thought about Liu Xiu's discordant words, but said in fear: "Then I don't know what to do now?" Does the gentleman have a clever plan? ”

Seeing Zhang Yi's panicked look, the corners of Zhou Yu's mouth curled slightly, and he said lightly: "There are three methods that are feasible now."

"I don't know which two methods they are?" Zhang Yi didn't care about Zhou Yu's cold tone, and hurriedly asked.

Zhou Yu still said coldly: "One is naturally to hold on, just take some more time, Liu Xiu's troops will be very tired of marching in this winter, and they will definitely not be able to fight for a long time, and they will naturally retreat if they can't attack for a long time, and then after the beginning of spring, Liu Xiu will definitely come again, and then I'm only afraid that the city will be ruined."

Zhang Yi slowly calmed down, he had considered this method of perseverance, and he was worried that Liu Xiu would come again after the beginning of spring next year, so he asked, "What about the second one?" ”

"The second is a plan to surrender by fraud," Zhou Yu said directly, regardless of what he thought: "General Chen Ying has already been defeated by Liu Xiu twice, this time he can be ordered to fight again, pretend to be defeated again and be ambushed, and then he will surrender by fraud, and join forces inside and outside to annihilate Liu Xiu; It's just that if this method is discovered by Liu Xiu, I am afraid that under the calculation, General Zhang will never turn over! ”

Zhang Yi thought about this plan carefully, and asked again: "I don't know what the third plan is?" ”

Zhou Yu continued: "The third is to serve my lord Sun Bofu, retreat to Yuzhang County, and then only need to defend in Yuzhang County for a while, and then you can join forces with my lord, Liu Xiu will definitely not dare to do it again!" ”

When Zhang Yi heard this, he was shocked: I didn't expect what Liu Xiu said to be true, Zhou Yu's fox tail was finally revealed, it seems that he simply wanted to take his military power without blood, and then use this man to defend against Liu Xiu, so that he could defend against Liu Xiu before Sun Ce freed up.

Zhang Yi is naturally not a person who is willing to serve in his heart, otherwise, he would have already demoted Liu Xiu! Therefore, after only a moment's thought, he said, "Then act according to the second plan!" ”

When Zhou Yu heard this, he sighed and said, "Since General Zhang has already decided, I won't say anything more; Yu has been in Guiyang for many days, it's time to leave! Tomorrow Yu will be gone! ”

When Zhang Yi heard this, he also knew that Zhou Yu would not serve Sun Ce, so he no longer helped him, so he left, so he no longer kept Zhou Yu, and said: "Since this is the case, then Zhang will not keep Mr. Zhou much!" ”

Zhou Yu was not polite, flicked his sleeves, and strode out, as if he was still talking about something from a distance.

"Lack of erection and conspiracy!"

Not long after, the next person came to report to Zhang Yi and said: "General Yu, Mr. Zhou took General Tai Shici and led 3,000 men and horses out of the east gate, saying that it was the order of the lord to be frightened!" ”

"What!" When Zhang Yi heard this, he shouted loudly: "You actually let him lead the troops out like this?!" Rubbish! ”

Zhou Yu also kidnapped his 3,000 soldiers and horses before leaving, and now there are less than 20,000 people in his city.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yi couldn't help but be annoyed

Not to mention Zhang Yi's plot, Liu Xiu has already planned in the camp.

Liu Xiu first opened his mouth and sighed: "Today's battle, although it was won, but I really don't know what to do next!" If Zhang Yi can't hold on, won't we have to return in vain?! ”

Liu Bowen smiled and comforted: "The lord doesn't need to worry, Zhou Yu can only know that even if he can't hold on, he won't be able to escape the destruction of the city in the spring of the next year, so if it is Zhou Yu, he will definitely think of breaking the enemy, or persuade him to abandon the city and retreat!" ”

Liu Xiu's eyes rolled, and after thinking about it, it seemed that this was indeed the case, and then asked, "Then I don't know what do you think we should do now?" ”

Liu Bowen shook the feather fan and said slowly: "The lord doesn't have to do anything, just wait for work, presumably it won't be long before there will be some action in the county, and then the lord will deal with it!" ”

Liu Xiu thought about it, and it could only be like this for now.

Before Liu Xiu and the others could negotiate, the soldiers outside came to report and said, "Lord Qi, Zhou Yu and Tai Shici led three thousand men and horses out of the city from the east gate!" ”

"Do you know where they're going?"

"I'm going in the direction of Yuzhang County!"

When Liu Xiu heard this, he laughed proudly: "Haha, could it be that my few words of discord in the morning were successful?!" ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Liu Bowen and the others.

Liu Bowen smiled and said: "The lord's words must have played a role and caused a disagreement between the two, but I didn't expect that Zhou Yu took away and stole Zhang Yi's 3,000 soldiers and horses, it seems that Zhang Yi must be very angry at this time!" ”

Wei Rui also opened his mouth and said: "Congratulations to the lord, the unification of the four counties of Jingnan is just around the corner!" ”

Liu Xiu was also overjoyed, and said happily: "Hahaha is true, after all, it will be successful!" However, we can't relax these days, General Wei still has to work hard for a few more days, don't let Zhang Yi have a chance! ”

"Whoa!" Wei Rui shouted yes.

Immediately afterwards, there were many military preparations and other matters, and the generals were ordered to go one after another.

As for Liu Xiu himself, he dozed off in the big tent heartlessly.

Until the middle of the night, he was awakened by the sound of shouts and killing!
