Xiahoude was trapped in the camp by Jiangdong soldiers and horses, rushing left and right, and met Cao Chun and Niu Jin halfway, and the three of them joined forces and led the defeated army to flee to Nanjun together. The three of them killed to the fifth watch, not far from Nanjun, at this time, a drum sounded, and Ling Cao led another army to block the way to intercept and kill for a while. Xia Houde took the road and left, not wanting to be intercepted by Zhou Tai halfway. Seeing that there was an ambush all the way to Nanjun, Xiahoude did not dare to return to Nanjun, so he changed his route to Xiangyang. Zhou Yu's generals chased and killed for a while, and when they saw Cao Bing walking away, they each led their troops back.

Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu gathered all the troops and came to the city of Nanjun, and just about to give the order to attack the city, they saw the head of the city and said: "Governor Zhou and slow to attack the city!" ”

When the people in Jiangdong heard the sound and looked at the city, they saw a big knife with a face like a heavy jujube, which was Wei Yan, who had shot and injured Zhou Yu before. Zhou Yu pointed at Wei Yan and asked, "Who are you?" Dare to stop my army? ”

Wei Yan smiled at the head of the city and said: "I am Yiyang Wei Yan, I know that I am not the opponent of the governor, and now I have abandoned the secret and returned to the Guanghua National Teacher." If the governor doesn't believe it, there is Chen Jiao's head here as proof. "After that, throwing down a human head, it is the head of Cao Jiang Chen Jiao.

Zhou Yu listened to Wei Yan in the city and almost died of anger. He really couldn't figure out what kind of logic Wei Yan was, why he wanted to vote for Nan Ye even though he was not against him. Zhou Yu questioned Wei Yandao: "Since you have been defeated by me, why don't you come to vote for me?" ”

Wei Yan said with a smile: "Doesn't the governor hear that good birds choose trees to perch, and virtuous ministers choose their masters." Guanghua National Teacher is famous in the world, and the four counties of Jingnan are close to Nanjun, so it is natural for me to vote for the national teacher. What's more, the governor and the national teacher joined forces to fight against Cao, and my vote for the national teacher and the governor are the same. ”

Even though Zhou Yu was elegant, he couldn't help but scold at the moment: "It's the same fart!" Give me a siege! I don't believe that once the army goes, the defenders of Nanjun will still be able to stop me. ”

Wei Yan heard that Zhou Yu was going to attack the city at the head of the city, and his face sank and said: "Don't regret that the governor wants to attack the city of the national division!" ”

Zhou Yu sneered: "You dare to fight the banner of the national teacher once you surrender to the general?" Whether the national teacher has been surrendered or not is still between the two, as long as I capture this city and behead you, who can prove that you have surrendered? Can the national teacher still turn against me if you die? ”

Wei Yan laughed and said, "The governor is really wise. In this case, the Governor is attacking the city. ”

Zhou Yu would hesitate when he heard this, and immediately ordered the siege of the city. Wei Yan ordered the defenders to start firing arrows, rolling logs and stones. Zhou Yu only said that there were not many soldiers and horses in the city, but Wei Yan and Lu Xun had already prepared and hid a lot of soldiers and horses in the city, and even Xia Houde didn't know. Moreover, there is no shortage of arrows in the city, and there are enough rolling wood and stones, but Zhou Yu lost his troops but could not enter the city.

In siege warfare, the defending side always has an advantage over the attacking side, and this advantage can often compensate for the lack of troops. Wei Yan and Lu Xun's guards did not have as many men and horses as Zhou Yu, but it was still possible to prevent Zhou Yu from entering the city in the short term. Just when the battle between the city and the city was inextricable, a battle song came from the south.

The song was faint at first, and the men on the battlefield shouted and the horses neighed and the swords clattered, completely muffling the song. When Zhou Yu, who was commanding the battle, heard the singing, the singing was already very loud, and the sound of rumbling horses' hooves came along with the singing. This made Zhou Yu's face change, because the army that sang war songs during the march and battle, there was only one army in the whole world without a semicolon, and that was the Jiaozhou Army under Nan Ye.

"The clouds are from the dragon, the wind is from the tiger, and the dust and earth are fame. Looking at Shenzhou, the people are bitter, and thousands of miles of fertile land are barren. Smell the world, sound the golden drum, and make up for the defects of heaven. Good boy, don't be a parent, just for the common people, not for the lord......"

The loud war song resounded throughout the world, announcing the arrival of the Jiaozhou army. As the army approached, the generals of Jiangdong and Wei Yan and Lu Xun in the city also heard the battle song. The rhythm of the besieging side suddenly slowed down, and the defending side stepped up to release arrows.

Zhou Yu could already see the army in the distance, the bright armor and swords and guns were dazzling, and the neat and uniform pace of the march was like a person. Zhou Yu, who had led the troops for many years, could see at a glance that this army was definitely an elite force, better than most of the soldiers in Jiangdong. The most terrifying thing is that this Jiaozhou elite can see the head but not the tail, and I don't know how many people there are. Zhou Yu judged from experience that this team was more than 100,000 people, which was not much more than the number of people under his command.

"Mingjin retreats!" Although Zhou Yu's face changed from pale after being seriously injured to iron blue, he had not forgotten to give the military order. In front of Nan Ye's army to attack the city that surrendered to Nan Ye, Zhou Yu did not have the courage to do so.

Wei Yan and Lu Xun looked at the retreating Jiangdong soldiers at the head of the city and couldn't help but smile at each other. The biggest reliance on their daring to start a war with Zhou Yu was not the hidden soldiers and horses in the city, but the Jiaozhou expeditionary force that came from the four counties of Jingnan. This army commanded by Zhang Liao, Jia Xu as the military division, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Yang Xiong and others as the generals, at the beginning of the war was stationed in the four counties of Jingnan, until this time Cao Cao Chibi was defeated, this army showed its minions and went straight to the south of the county.

Lu Xun and Wei Yan thought that it would be some days before this support army arrived, and they were ready to fight a protracted battle with Zhou Yu, but they didn't expect the Jiaozhou soldiers to come so quickly. As a result, the siege battle launched by Zhou Yu not only did not have any results, but also lost many soldiers. The defenders of the city only paid some arrows and rolled wood, and did not even have a chance to suffer casualties in hand-to-hand combat.

These defenders who followed Lu Xun and Wei Yan were originally Jingzhou soldiers, and except for a small number of cronies, they didn't know that Lu Xun and Wei Yan had already voted for Nanye, so when Xiahoude defeated Lu Xun and Wei Yan changed their banners, they were still a little strange why their main general would vote for Nanye National Division. At this moment, these Jingzhou soldiers realized the foresight of their own coach and cheered one after another.

Different from the joy of the soldiers guarding the city, the Jiangdong soldiers are like dead fathers and mothers. This battle was fought in vain, everyone died in vain, and Zhou Yu was also shot in vain. The young general Ding Feng was so angry that he burst into tears, and said in his mouth: "Damn! It's disgusting! Governor, I am willing to fight to the death. ”

Zhou Yu shook his head when he heard this: "Nan Ye...... The world looks down on you. Anyway, I can't get Nanjun, Kong Ming can't think about it, and it's not a shame to lose in the hands of the Great Dao Saint. ”

Lu Su originally wanted to persuade Zhou Yu not to be impulsive, but seeing that Zhou Yu was very calm, he asked, "How does the governor plan to deal with it?" ”

Zhou Yu snorted coldly: "Let's see whether Nan Ye is there or not, it is not a day's work for the army to gather, I have to ask him why he is here." ”

Just as Zhou Yu spoke, the Jiaozhou army had already arrived in front of him. "The Great Dao Sage", "Guanghua National Teacher", "General" and "Jiaozhou Mu" all kinds of flags are displayed in the wind. The first three handsome flags were "Huang", "Zhao" and "Yang", and they were the three vanguard officers of Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and Yang Xiong.
