Chapter 42: It was my father's relic, a stone
"Strategist, the lord asked us to build a city defense equipment overnight, why is this? Could it be that Yuan Shu's army can break through the frontline battlefield and attack Pengcheng? Zang Ba looked puzzled, "It stands to reason that Cao Cao and Sun Ce shouldn't be so weak!" ”
"Haha......" Chen Gong laughed a few times, "You don't understand the mind of the lord!" I didn't understand it before, but now I do, it turns out that the lord thinks more long-term than us! It's a big chess game! ”
"It's ...... Big? ”
"That's right, it's big!" Chen Gong took a deep breath and raised his head slightly, "Lord, Lord, you are becoming more and more unpredictable to me!" What the hell is going on, make you have a mental epiphany! It's like a different person! I, Chen Gong, am I still qualified to assist you and give you advice? ”
"Huh? What do you mean? ”
"General Zang Ba, don't care what you mean! Hurry up and do what the lord says, be sure to prepare for five days, no, fifteen days of defensive equipment! ”
"Fifteen days? How many arrows, wood, oil, and rolling stones are consumed! The corners of Zang Ba's mouth twitched, and his face was full of bitterness, "Strategist, where are we going to find so many things?" ”
"I don't care, you have about five days to prepare! Within five days, no matter what method you use, you must find sufficient supplies, otherwise, Pengcheng will be breached, and the whole city will die! Chen Gong frowned, "You haven't seen Cao Cao's methods, you don't understand!" Listen to me! ”
"Yes!" Zang Ba replied, and then turned away!
Chen Gong came to the eaves and looked up at the sky, only to see that the sky was full of starlight, which was very gorgeous.
"Fengxian, Fengxian, what is it that makes you feel like a different person! If you had been before, you wouldn't have thought of such a countermeasure! ”
"You don't seem to have any other strategists around you, could it be that Ziyu's guy had a whim to make you have such a decision?"
"By no means, this kind of decision is not one or two, but for a long time, all decisions have been made for the same purpose! To be able to make such a decision, it must be very far-sighted and strategic! ”
"Fengxian, do you have the help of heaven and man?"
……
The original three battlefields evolved into two after Zhang Fei withdrew from the battle!
After Xu Chu and Xiahoudun were defeated, they led the army to flee to Xiyang!
And Zhang Xun, Lei Bo, and Zhang Ji set up camp next to Yingshui!
Although Sun Ce did rescue Tai Shici, he also suffered heavy losses and led the army back to the base camp next to Pengze Lake!
Qiao Rui and Chen Lan immediately waved their divisions and fought with Zhang Xun and others next to Yingshui!
After the first battle, of the 170,000 or 80,000 troops, only more than 100,000 remained.
At this moment, Zhang Xun also learned the fact that Han Xian and Yang Feng had defected to the enemy.
After Zhang Xun and other generals cursed, they began to prepare for the fortifications!
The joint operation of Cao Cao and Sun Ce made Zhang Xun a little confused!
Originally, it was just to capture Xuzhou, but unexpectedly, it was Cao Cao and Sun Ce who 'picked up'.
Although Zhang Fei and Chen Deng of Xuzhou also participated in the battle, the party Lu Bu has never been seen.
Zhang Xun and others discussed, thinking that although the first battle was won, the loss was too great and it was not suitable to attack!
And Cao Cao and Sun Ce came, they must want to plot Yangzhou, in order to ensure that Yangzhou is safe, Cao Cao, Sun Ce and others came from afar, and the grain and grass they brought will inevitably not be able to support for a long time, Zhang Xun and others decided to turn attack into defense!
As long as it takes ten days, Cao Cao and Sun Ce will retreat, and then they will make a plot!
……
Pengze Lake!
Sun Ce was sitting next to the bed, and the medical officer was bandaging Sun Ce's wounds.
"Lord, why are you so embarrassed?" Zhou Yu frowned, looking worried.
"Originally, we were victorious, but for some reason, the enemy still has reinforcements!" Sun Ce's face was full of anger, and the roots of his teeth itched with hatred, "How is General Ziyi?" ”
"Back to the lord, General Tai Shici is in good health!" Zhou Yu stepped forward to check the injury, "Please also ask the lord to take care of his injuries, don't be angry!" ”
"Gong Jin, my evil breath, if you don't destroy Yuan Shu, it's really hard to eliminate!" Sun Ce gritted his teeth, "Gong Jin, you have always been resourceful, do you have a plan for this battle?" ”
"Lord, I took a boat to Xuyi in the afternoon, and found that Xuyi was heavily guarded, and if we forcibly attacked, we would inevitably suffer great losses!" Zhou Yu frowned, "Today's plan, it is best to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and let Lu Bu and Cao Cao attack!" ”
"Xuyi?" Sun Ce frowned, "Gong Jin, if you want to attack Xuyi, how much does it cost?" ”
"Huh?" Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, his expression tense, "I observe the Xuyi defenders, I'm afraid there are fifty or sixty thousand, according to the concept of three times the siege of the city, as long as nearly 200,000 troops!" ”
"Two hundred thousand?" Sun Ce's face was like ashes, and he sighed deeply, "Is there no other way?" ”
"Lord, this attack on Yuan Shu, we don't need to rush forward so much!" Zhou Yu sighed lightly, "As for that thing, it's just something outside the body, and I hope the lord won't care!" ”
"Go down!" Sun Ce raised his hand and asked the medical officer to leave.
The medic replied, and then turned to leave.
"Gongjin, that's my father's relic!" Sun Ce's eyes were blazing, "You're going to let me give it up now?" Do you think it's possible? ”
"My lord, it's just a stone, is my lord going to build on the foundation you have worked so hard to build for it?" Zhou Yu clenched his fists and arched his hands, "Please don't lose a big one because of a small one!" Today's plan should focus on hegemony! ”
"Gong Jin, have I lost so many soldiers in vain?" Sun Ce's eyes were as hot as fire, and his expression was cold, "Those are all Jiangdong disciples, how much territory have they won for me, but I want to abandon them now?" Not to avenge them? ”
"Lord, I don't suggest that the lord forget the hatred, but don't rush forward so much!" Zhou Yu sighed lightly, "This is not our battle in the first place, we don't need to waste our troops for Cao Thief and Lu Bu!" ”
"Alas!" Sun Ce sighed deeply, "Gongjin, then listen to you!" There's no need, I'm not going to fight, let them consume! It's just that our grain and grass, not a lot! ”
"Don't worry, my lord, I have asked General Cheng Pu to transport grain!" Zhou Yu clenched his fists and arched his hands, "Please forgive the lord for his sins and issue orders in vain!" ”
"Gong Jin, we are like brothers, and Jiangdong also has half of you!" Sun Ce raised his injured arm and patted Zhou Yu's shoulder in pain, "Gong Jin, you did the right thing!" You're right! After that, wait for the opportunity to move and see what Cao Cao does! ”
……
Two days have passed!
Cao Ying!
The Great Tent in the Center!
Except for Cheng Yu, all the ministers are here!
Cao Cao paced in the lobby with his hands in his hands!
"Report! Lord, the sentry rode back, but he didn't find Cheng Yu's whereabouts! ”
"Let's go down!" Cao Cao stopped and let out a long sigh, "Zhongde, where have you been?" ”
"Don't worry too much, lord!" Xun Yu stepped forward and clenched his fists, "Cheng Yu is the envoy of the Han Dynasty, and the princes must be respected as guests, and they will definitely not do anything to Cheng Yu!" ”
"Lord!" Guo Jia frowned slightly, "In the past two days, Lu Bu seems to have disappeared!" I'm worried that Lu Bu will attack Shouchun! ”
