The Chu army set up a solid camp five miles away from the city, and the big village stretched for several miles. Due to the rush of time, several trenches dug during the siege of Jingzhou to defend against the night raid camp in the city were buried in the future. In this way, the Chu army occupied the magpie's nest, and quickly set up a large camp with the original fortifications of the Jingzhou army.

At night, the camp is brightly lit, and the fire that rises to the sky illuminates the land outside Luoyang City for miles away from the camp as bright as day. Sima Fan, who originally wanted to take advantage of the Chu army's first arrival in Luoyang and his unstable foothold to rob the camp, saw such a scene, so he naturally completely dispelled his thoughts.

In the big tent of the Chinese army in the camp of the Chu army, the candle flame reflected the corners of the tent. Sima Ting sat on top of the handsome seat, and Sima Yi and Zhou sat on the left and right. The three of them were assigning siege tasks to the dozen or so strong and murderous Chu army generals standing in the tent. All the generals are in armor, majestic, resolute, and all of them are battle-hardened generals!

Sima Ting looked at the general of the Chu army with satisfaction, and waved his big hand: "That's it." Let's all go down. Tomorrow, the fourth watch will get up to make food, and the fifth watch will attack the city! ”

A group of Chu army generals bowed down in unison and rushed out of the tent. After waiting around for a group of generals to go out, he hesitated for a moment, but still sighed: "Lord Chu, Prince Yi." I don't know if you've heard of the current rumors in the army? ”

Sima Ting and Sima Yi glanced at each other, both of them were a little strange. Sima Ting was puzzled: "Lord Zhou, have you heard anything?" ”

Zhou sighed again and said slowly: "Both of you also know that most of our army was drawn from the various armies in Jingzhou back then. More or less in the Jingzhou army in the city, there are people with old acquaintances. The former comrades-in-arms will be divided under Luoyang City tomorrow, and they have just come all the way to the Chinese army's big tent, and I have seen many people who are related to each other, and I am very emotional! ”

Sima Ting and Sima Yi couldn't help but be silent after hearing this. Aren't the two of them going to face each other with the eldest brother who has lived together since childhood?

Sima Ting was silent for a moment and said, "The military heart is like this. I'm afraid that tomorrow will attack the city, and the soldiers are not willing to serve their lives! ”

Zhou Chu shook his head firmly and said, "At this point, the prince of Chu can rest assured. The officers and men of our army are the elite of the elite and have strict discipline! Even if the other party is their closest relative, once the military order is given, the soldiers will definitely carry it out! ”

Sima Yi also nodded approvingly, although he felt that the examples given by Zhou were a bit excessive, but the Chu army was indeed such an iron-blooded army. After leading the Chu army to fight for more than seven years, he could fully feel the huge willpower of the Chu army. The military flag points to the indomitable and unscrupulous! And this, because Sima Ting has not led this Chu army, he is a little ignorant.

Zhou Shi paused, and changed his words: "It's just, after all, the troops inside and outside the city are the troops of the prince of Xianchu back then, and everyone is out of the same team, if it is not a last resort, there is really no need to fight for both defeats." After all, after the fall of King Xiangyang in the future, these people will become our descendant forces in the Quartet. ”

Sima Ting nodded and said, "Lord Zhou is reasonable. Today, I promised to leave the South City Gate, not only for the people of Luoyang, but also for the Jingzhou army to survive. After all, everyone is the soldiers and horses of Jingzhou and Chu, and I don't want to force each other too much. As long as they are willing to give up Luoyang City, they will be allowed to return to Jingzhou. ”

Zhou Chu chuckled, he naturally understood that Sima Ting's promise to stay at the South City Gate for the sake of the people of Luoyang and the Jingzhou army was secondary, mainly to let Sima Fan have a way to live, right? It's just that everyone knows this fact, but no one wants to break it. And to be honest, even if Sima Fan was caught, he didn't know what to do...... It's just that in this way, it is another time to let the tiger return to the mountain, and if you want to deal with Sima Fan again, I am afraid that it will be more difficult...... I don't know what Sima Ting plans in his heart.

Thinking of this, the smile on Zhou's face suddenly condensed, his heart jumped suddenly, and a bold idea came out of his heart: if Sima Fan was not captured alive, but died directly in the chaos, then all the problems would be solved!

Zhou couldn't help but glance at Sima Ting and Sima Yi, and said secretly: These two brothers will definitely not agree to do this. It seems that this time I can only be a villain around me, presumably the master of the Governor must also be happy to help, with his skills, it should be easy to kill Sima Fan in the chaos of the army, right?

Sima Ting found that Zhou's face was different, and he couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong with Lord Zhou?" ”

He shook his head lightly and said with a smile, "It's okay." I'm just wondering what happened to the current Governors in Luoyang City. ”

Sima Tinghu glanced at Zhou Chu suspiciously, he naturally knew that Zhou Chu was just a perfunctory remark, but since Zhou Chu was unwilling to say it, it was inconvenient for him to force him too much. Sima Ting didn't think much about it, and thought that there was something unspeakable about Zhou, so he just smiled and said, "Lord Zhou may not know yet, right?" The master is now in the barracks. ”

Zhou Chu let out a soft "oh", he knew that Sima Ting and Du Jue were rare masters in the world. For them, each other is simply a dazzling lantern in the vast darkness, and they can feel each other's presence from afar. Since Sima Ting said that Du Jue has come to the army, then Du Jue must not be far from the Chinese army's big tent.

A strange smile appeared on Zhou Chu's face, and his eyes were blazing: "Really? That's good. When the Overseer comes, we'll discuss tomorrow's siege in detail. He had already made up his mind, and before Du Jue sneaked back to Luoyang City, he would discuss with Du Jue how to let Sima Fan die in the chaos!

In the Taiji Hall of the Imperial City of Luoyang City, Sima Fan sat in the dragon chair. Under the golden ranks, the generals of the Jingzhou Army led by Zhao Desheng stood in two columns.

Zhao Desheng was full of worry at the moment and said, "Your Majesty." Sima Ting agreed to our conditions so easily, but I was afraid that there would be fraud. We really have to guard against it! In case the Chu army sends an army to infiltrate the city, wanting to capture Luo! Or maybe Sima Ting reversed course and cut off our south gate! Or ......"

Sima Fan glanced at Zhao Desheng, and sunk his whole body in the wide dragon chair, although he felt that the dragon chair was a little too hard, and his body felt not very comfortable, but he enjoyed it very much in his heart. Sima Fan smiled secretly in his heart: The third and the seventh, you are really too tender. Don't say that you are bullied as a big brother.

Sima Fan waved his hand, stopped Zhao Desheng's tirade, and said, "I understand what General Zhao meant. Inform the defenders of Nancheng to strengthen their defense, across the Luo River, the Chu army just wants to sneak attack, how easy is it to talk about? As for going back on his word, hehe, Lao Qi is not that kind of person. He will not put the lives of millions of people in Luoyang City alone. ”

Zhao Desheng was speechless for a moment, and he retreated, but the gloom in his heart lingered. He had heard of the lack of one in the three walls, but it was beyond his imagination to build three walls and leave one side for the people in the city to enter and leave freely. Does this still look like a siege? With such a way of playing, Chu Jun will never want to enter Luoyang City in his life! Unless the Chu army is sure to break into Luoyang City from the other three city walls, where is Sima Ting's reliance?

Sima Fan didn't look at Zhao Desheng again, but just smiled and looked around at the generals standing at the foot of the stairs and said, "The generals have been following me for more than ten years, and the shortest ones are five or six years. We were able to take Luoyang City, and all the generals contributed a lot! After the retreat of Lao Qi's army, the generals will be added to the knighthood, and the wife and shadow will naturally be fine! ”

All the generals were overjoyed, and they bowed down to Sima Fan in unison, and the sound of singing praises and virtues resounded. They knew that Sima Fan was rebellious, but they still followed Sima Fan, in addition to the life of the whole family in Sima Fan's hands, what else was they trying to do? The picture is that I hope that one day Sima Fan will really be able to ascend to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and he will also have the skill of being a dragon, and since then he has been in power, and the scenery is unlimited! And this day is finally coming.

Sima Fan stretched out his hand and pressed down, and the sound of sycophants in the hall suddenly disappeared. The smile on Sima Fan's face also disappeared, and he was replaced with a fierce expression, and said in a deep voice: "However." I'm talking about it. Coming down from the city today, I heard a lot of gossip, and many veterans and even officers in the army were saying that they couldn't bear to fight with the Chu army outside the city. But now people don't think so, they have already fallen under the city, and they just want to kill us all! Do we still have to talk to them about brotherly righteousness?! The generals turned around the battalions and conveyed their meaning to me clearly! Since tomorrow we are all going to fight each other, we are enemies with them! To be merciful to one's enemies is to be cruel to oneself! Remember! Defend the city tomorrow, let the Chu army outside the city be killed! Feather! Whereas! Return! ”

Sima Fan's loud roar echoed in the empty Taiji Hall for a long time, and all the generals of the Jingzhou Army leaned down to obey orders, and their hearts were awe-inspiring.
