Seeing the 300,000 Praetorian Guards leaving, a smile appeared on Zhou Yu's face. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"If you don't even have this tacit understanding, then don't blame the loss." He thought to himself.

At this moment, Zhou Yu has only 3,000 people left around him, compared to Lu Su and Zhang Hong, there are only more than 1,000 people left around him.

But unfortunately, that was impossible, in order to ensure the progress of the plan, within dozens of miles around the east gate, Liu Feng's cavalry swept over, and there was no way to hide the army.

Now Liu Feng's cavalry, in the intelligence of the Yuan Shu Praetorian Guard, is moving in the direction of Xicheng outside the north gate, and if the battle goes well, they can end the war at the east gate before the cavalry gets the news. Even if it is slightly beyond the scale, it doesn't matter, General Yuan has already arranged a blocking plan.

When Yuan Shu's Praetorian Guards entered the battlefield from the side, the situation suddenly changed, and just because of the little advantage brought by Ling Cao personally leading people on the field, they were immediately pressed down again. Facing an enemy twice as large as himself, Ling Cao could only struggle to support.

When Yuan Shu's Praetorian Guards were dispatched, Zhang Hong and Lu Su, who were watching the battle in the rear, finally had a smile, so the order flag waved, the drum sounded again, and Ling Cao, who heard the signal, began to slowly retreat after engaging the Praetorian Guard.

"Want to escape? It's a pity it's too late! General Yuan immediately saw Ling Cao's purpose, and the offensive became even more fierce.

……

As soon as the Yuan Shu Praetorian Guard was dispatched, Liu Feng received the news from the Yiren, so he immediately made a decision and ordered Bai Jian, who was commanding on the front line, to strengthen the attack, and did not hesitate to use the medium-sized catapults that had been prepared for a long time.

......Dozens of medium-sized catapults and hundreds of small catapults launched an attack on Shucheng as soon as they received the order, directly suppressing Shucheng's catapults and not daring to show their heads.

Liu Ye has the ability, and the catapult he commanded far surpassed the Jiangdong Army in terms of speed and accuracy, but he had no choice but to lack throwing objects in the city, and he barely collected some, and he was also exhausted in the daily non-stop battle.

"What, the South Gate has been attacked? Damn, I must have received the news from the East Gate, this is Wei Wei saving Zhao. Liu Xun, who was watching the battle at the East Gate Tower, was shocked when he got the news, "The city wall has suffered serious losses, and the Jiangdong Army is ready to forcibly attack the city, what is Liu Ye going to eat, why don't you suppress the enemy's catapult...... Damn, it's a lack of throwing objects...... "Getting the bad news one after another at the south gate, Zhang Xun was angry and a little overwhelmed.

"General Zhou (Zhou Shang), the south gate is being forcibly attacked by the Jiangdong Army, and the situation is critical, please ask for instructions on what to do." Finally, Liu Xun remembered that he was no longer the supreme commander of Shucheng.

"The leader of the enemy army has a very accurate vision, and he knows that we are not strong enough to dare to act like this." Zhou Shang sighed, "The plan now is to compete with the enemy for time." Liu Taishou, you have always been responsible for the defense of the south gate, so let's do it, you rush to the south gate now to command the defense of the city, as long as you hold on for an hour, wait for the enemy to return to the city here, and immediately go to support the south gate. Rest assured, Ben will urge them to fight quickly, otherwise if the enemy army at the south gate takes advantage of the loophole, even if we encircle and annihilate the enemy army at the east gate, it is meaningless, I think not only we know, but also General Yuan. ”

"Also, as long as this wave of attacks is held, General Ben will personally ask Liu Taishou for credit, or he can also send Liu Taishou to Pengcheng to state the benefits and disadvantages to His Majesty, and Qinglai will come to reinforce the army." Zhou Shang thought about it for a while, coerced and lured, and gave Liu Xun a task.

"Okay, this official received the order, and asked General Zhou to urge him to end the battle here as soon as possible. Also, don't break your word. "It is not uncommon for Liu Xun to ask for credit or something, but if it is to leave Shucheng as soon as possible, Liu Xun is still willing to reconcile with the Zhou family temporarily.

"Of course, Liu Taishou can rest assured that Ben will vouch for the general's life." Zhou Shang assured.

The situation was critical, Liu Xun didn't talk nonsense anymore, and got Zhou Shang's assurance, and immediately took his own soldiers to the south gate.

Zhou Shang watched Liu Xun leave in a hurry, and also smiled.

The last stumbling block is also gone, and it's time to act.

……

Liu Xun left, and the battle outside the city had reached its climax, and the battle was raging. Under Ling Cao's gradual retreat, he had almost retreated outside the camp, but was finally surrounded by the defenders of Shucheng.

At this moment, it has been a quarter of an hour since Zhou Yu said before the battle.

Just when General Yuan wanted to further strengthen his attack and completely solve these people, a change finally appeared.

Behind Ling Cao's camp and on the left and right, a dense army appeared, which was rushing towards him.

"Anti-encirclement, fooled!" This thought sprung up in General Yuan's heart. At this point, he had no time to wonder why the scouts he had dispersed hadn't noticed anything unusual.

"Returning to the city, only by returning to the city immediately can we preserve the vitality and let Shucheng hold on for a while under the attack of the Jiangdong army." General Yuan thought, "This Zhou Yu is really a waste, he doesn't know if he falls for the enemy's tricks, and he must look good when he goes back." ”

"Behind the front line, the back team turns to the front team and slowly retreats." Looking back at the city gate that had been opened, General Yuan began to issue military orders, directing the retreat, "Tell all captains and Sima to pay attention, and let the defenders of Shucheng block the enemy for our Praetorian Guard." ”

……

"Reinforcements, start a counteroffensive, hold off the enemy, don't let them escape." At the same time, Ling Cao also gave orders to his subordinates.

In the siege of the army, even as a seventh-order general, he had some respite, if the reinforcements in ambush did not appear again, he didn't know if he could hold on.

……

"Uncle, the family should be ready, pass the order, let Yuan Shu, the 300,000 Praetorian Guards, become a gift for us to get rid of Yuan Shu's control!" Zhou Yu had already entered the city and came to the city tower.

If General Yuan knew about this, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood. When Zhou Yu went home, he accompanied him all the way, and never let Zhou Yu leave his eyeliner. But even in this case, Zhou Yu still delivered the news to his family, so that the Zhou family was ready to respond.

……

"Ladies and gentlemen, the moment of life and death has arrived, today is the time when the city is broken, the army of the traitor Yuan Shu has ended, this is a good time for our Zhou family anyway, there is an army of our Zhou family outside, and they will also join in the rebellion together. Now, it's time for us to serve the court, are you willing? "In the Zhou mansion, tens of thousands of people gathered together. The person at the head is Zhou Yu's brother Zhou Jin.

Today's Zhou family, although the older generation is still in power, has gradually delegated power to the third generation. Even Zhou Shang, who was still young, felt a lot of pressure.

"Serve the court! Serve the court! The cry of the sky resounded throughout half of Shucheng.

……

General Yuan's retreat plan finally failed, and when the Praetorian Guard was ready to leave the Shucheng defenders to evacuate first, they suddenly found that the Shucheng defenders had "defected" and waved a butcher's knife at his subordinates.

"What's the situation, a battlefield rebellion? Aren't these people afraid of being killed by the enemy in the chaos? This was General Yuan's first thought.

But when he accidentally saw the closed gate of Shucheng, he finally realized that he had become an outcast. Although I don't know when it happened, it is an indisputable fact that Zhou Yu's uncle and nephew and even the entire Zhou family betrayed Yuan Shu.

……

In October of the second year of Jian'an, Liu Feng broke Shucheng, and the Zhou family turned away from Yuan Shu.
