The confidence that Huang Zu got was actually given by Liu Pan.

Liu Pan brought more than 10,000 soldiers from Changsha, and he has been participating in the counterinsurgency in Jingnan all these years, and he is an elite soldier sharpened by real battles.

After failing to gain an advantage in a few battles in the field, Zhou Yu's originally calm mood fluctuated slightly.

The season enters November, and the temperature in Yuzhang plummets.

Zhou Yu was not as well prepared as Huang Zu, and the Jiangdong soldiers did not have sufficient winter clothes to protect themselves from the cold, so it was extremely unfavorable to continue to hold on.

Standing on the boat and looking south, Nanchang can already faintly see the shadow.

Huang Zu and Liu Pan occupied the favorable terrain first, and they could not break through the defense line of the Jingzhou army in a hurry.

As the sun sets, it's the end of the day.

Seeing that there were still countless tough battles to be fought and it would be possible to pay a big price to relieve the siege of Nanchang, suddenly a bold idea fell into Zhou Yu's mind.

A gust of river breeze blew, and the hairs on Zhou Yu's body stood up, which also made him make up his mind to take an adventure.

After getting off the boat and coming to Xu Kun's camp, Zhou Yu put forward his own ideas.

"Guangdehou, the damage on both sides in the past few days is not small, but Huang Zu has no intention of withdrawing the army, continuing to fight may be detrimental to our army, and the winter clothes of the soldiers are also insufficient."

"What does the Metropolitan want to say?"

Seeing Xu Kun frowning, Zhou Yu said with a straight face: "A change must be made, I am ready to encircle Wei and save Zhao." ”

"Wai Wei to save Zhao? Wai where? Huang Zu's grain land and sea dusk? That city is unusually strong." Xu Kun began to shake his head after asking questions continuously.

Zhou Yu shook his head at the same time and added: "Huang Zu is besieging Nanchang, I want to turn my head and go to Jiangxia, his main force is here, and the rear must be empty." ”

Xu Kun's eyes widened like copper bells, and he hurriedly reminded: "Jiang Xia? That's a siege! ”

Zhou Yu said contemptuously: "It's not that the soldiers haven't fought, where is the weakness of Shaxian City, I still remember it vividly." ”

"Boyang is thirsty for help, if we withdraw our troops at this time, can the army in the city be maintained? Where will Nanchang be able to hold at that time? Xu Kun obviously disagreed with Zhou Yu's plan.

Zhou Yu said in a deep voice: "Guangdehou can stay contained, I will lead the headquarters to attack Shaxian, and by the way, send people to the rear to mobilize winter clothes, as long as I can hold Huang Zu for twenty days, I have the confidence to defeat Shaxian." ”

Xu Kun saw that Zhou Yu was resolute, and reminded him seriously: "Gong Jin, aren't we saving Nanchang?" What is the use of laying down the sand envy? ”

Zhou Yu replied: "At present, there is no way to break through the front, so I can only bet that Huang Zu will withdraw his army, and he has left a small number of sailors in Chaisang, and he will definitely be able to find out that my warship is advancing westward, and maybe it will soon be chaotic." ”

"If Huang Zu doesn't withdraw, what can he do? A few months ago, Bohai (Sun He) was not saved, and if Nanchang fell this time, the lord's face would be dull. ”

Xu Kun had no choice but to move out of Sun Quan, but Zhou Yu had already prepared words to deal with it.

"At the moment of national crisis, why care about face?"

Zhou Yu's face was full of perseverance, and he said: "Boyang is a child of the Sun family, you should know the difficulty of starting a business, do you have to polish the old department of Bofu in order to help Nanchang?" ”

Seeing that Zhou Yu insisted on his own opinion and was determined to eat the scales, Xu Kun did not persuade again.

Zhou Yu was about to leave with the main force, and Xu Kun immediately adjusted his strategy and faced Huang Zu and Liu Pan across the river on the east bank of Ganshui, but he did not take the initiative to launch an offensive.

The sudden disappearance of hundreds of warships immediately made Huang Zu vigilant, and he thought that Zhou Yu had gone upstream in the dark, but it turned out that there were only Jingzhou warships near Nanchang.

It wasn't until the next morning that Huang Zu received a warning from Chen Zuo that Zhou Yu's warship was heading for Jiangxia.

Huang Zu was directly stunned after hearing the news, and said in his heart that I have been fighting for so many years, and it is the first time I have encountered such a tactic.

I'm going to encircle the point to send reinforcements, but the reinforcements run to steal my house?

"Master Pan, right now that Xu Kun is on the east coast, Zhou Yu may have gone to Jiangxia, what good can you do?"

"Before sending out the army, my uncle asked me to listen to your orders, how to fight this battle now, I have to be too shou to get an idea, but you can ask Liu Ziyang."

Liu Panxin said that my family is not in Jiangxia, and the current situation naturally fights Nanchang without scruples, but it is impossible for him to say this, so he pushed Liu Ye, who joined the army, out.

"Liu Ziyang asked me to surround the point to send reinforcements last time, and now the main force of reinforcements is running to steal my house, so I have to find someone to ask for clarification"

At the end of Huang Zu's words, he suddenly denied it and added: "Others may not be able to say clearly, I still go to Haiduan in person, and I will give full authority to Gongzi here." ”

Liu Pan patted his chest and said, "Taishou don't worry, I promise to block Xu Kun on the other side." ”

"Hmm."

Huang Zuyan said that he directly hit the horse and ran to the sea dusk.

Liu Ye had just received a report from Chai Sang, and Gan Ning had specially told him.

Zhou Yu's departure made Gan Ning feel frustrated, because the potential enemy ran away by himself, but Liu Ye showed a heavy expression, and said that Zhou Lang also has a dangerous side?

Gan Ning was bored and stood at the head of the city, and suddenly saw a team of people and horses from the south galloping over, and when he got closer, he found that it was actually Taishou Huangzu.

Is he here to send troops to reinforce the front line, or will he let us go back to Jiangxia? In short, there should be a battle to be fought?

Gan Ning ran down the city tower excitedly, and found that Huang Zu had already led people away, so he immediately got on his horse and chased the dust, and finally stopped outside Liu Ye's residence.

Silently crossed the threshold and came to the room, Gan Ning happened to see Huang Zu questioning Liu Ye: "Mr. asked me to save my strength to surround the point and send reinforcements, deliberately delaying the rhythm of the siege, but Zhou Yu has not fought a few battles with me, so he secretly went to Jiangxia behind me, you have to be responsible for this strategy." ”

Huang Zu's tone was heavy, and he could hear his unkindness.

Liu Ye's expression was like this after hearing this, and he asked indifferently: "Dare to ask Huang Taishou, how is the combat effectiveness of the Jiangdong soldiers?" And how many troops are there? ”

Huang Zu replied disappreciatively: "The combat strength of the two sides is equal, and the strength of the troops is not equal. ”

"Isn't that right? If the general attacks the city with all his might, he may not be able to go down at this time, and then he will face the battle with a tired body, and the Taishou will still be able to maintain his strength? Liu Ye smiled happily.

Huang Zu swallowed his saliva, obviously thinking that Liu Ye was right, so he asked: "In Mr. Opinion, am I advancing or retreating now?" ”

Liu Ye asked rhetorically: "I don't know how Shaxian City is defended?" Did all the reinforcements go to Jiangxia? ”

Huang Zu replied: "Shaxian experienced the last defeat, I have asked Su Du Governor to strengthen the city defense, the other party only Zhou Yu led the warship away, Xu Kun's more than 10,000 soldiers are still on the east bank of Ganshui. ”

"Then what are Huang Taishou waiting for?" Liu Ye smiled bitterly and reminded: "You only need to send a small number of soldiers and horses to keep an eye on Xu Kun, and the rest of the people will attack Nanchang with all their might, and now you don't have to worry about Jiangdong coming to reinforce the army, and Sun Quan can't transfer it in a short time." ”

"But the Sha envy defenders are mostly old and weak"

Seeing that Huang Zu was still hesitating, Liu Ye shook his head and reminded: "No matter how old and weak there are, there are 10,000, and the Nanchang defenders are only 5,000, and Zhou Yu brings reinforcements to come first and then leave, shouldn't you use the strategy of attacking the heart?" ”

"Scheming? Sizzle"

Huang Zu heard a stirring spirit, and hurriedly hugged his fists and thanked: "Thank you, Mr., for mentioning something, so that I can suddenly open my mouth, then I will compete with Zhou Yu for speed, and there are few people in Shaxian and many people in Nanchang, so I won't lose anything." ”
