The early morning sun shines down through the sparse clouds, reflecting on the ruins of Hefei City, as if wearing a warm and glorious clothes.

Tufuzi and a group of craftsmen and strong men shuttled through the ruins, filling the gaps in the city walls with wood and stones, and repairing the city's defenses brick by brick.

The craftsmen rolled up their sleeves, took the tools, and worked together to carry out the construction in an orderly manner.

Some are repairing the walls, some are repairing the gates, and some are building defensive towers.

With the unremitting efforts of the craftsmen, the northern part of Hefei City gradually regained some defensive strength.

Newly built houses stand proudly, sections of city walls rise into the sky, and Hefei, an impregnable fortress, stands in front of Sun Quan again.

Merely...

Before, he was looking at Hefei under the city, and when he saw Hefei Jiancheng, he was helpless to take it, but now it is different.

He was in the city, and he wished that the walls were so strong that they could hold back an army of millions.

"The Wei army in the north, is there any movement?"

Sun Quan's face was solemn and confident, and his eyes were bright, revealing wisdom and decisiveness.

His movements are confident and calm, his gait is steady, his demeanor is majestic, and every step appears sonorous and powerful. His gestures are natural and appropriate, sometimes waving his hands, sometimes clenching his fists to show determination, showing his leadership style.

Three days ago, he made a major decision to let Lu Xun go and attack the Wei camp.

Outcome...

Victory!

That's Wei Jun!

Many of my Jiangdong courtiers are afraid of them like tigers, but now?

It's not that I'm not defeated by my Sun Quan, and I obediently wait north of Weishui, and I don't dare to come to attack the city.

The grievances and anger that have accumulated for many days have been vented once, not to mention how comfortable Sun Quan is now.

"Zhang Liao and Cao Hong have not moved, but after hearing the news, Cao Pi, the king of Wei, is approaching in an instant, and it is only a few days away from me."

Cao Pi?

"How many men does he have?"

"I heard that there are 200,000 troops!"

Two hundred thousand?

Sun Quan estimated in his heart that even if the 200,000 were counted as the auxiliary soldiers, the number of soldiers would be seventy or eighty thousand.

That's still the minimum.

This is a great enemy!

Defend this wave of offensive, this Hefei is really in his hands.

"Hefei is a heavy land, since it is successful, there is no reason to lose it, I don't know what you can do?"

Sun Quan looked around at the generals, and his main gaze was fixed on Lu Meng and Lu Xun.

"Lord, the Wei State is full of people, we should repair the city, build a defensive line, focus on defense, and not fight with the Wei army out of the city, after all, our troops are insufficient."

Insufficient troops is naturally a problem, but the most important thing is that field warfare is not a sneak attack, it is a hard encounter.

The strength of Jiangdong's foot soldiers is still not as good as those of those tall Central Plains Hans.

Build on your strengths and avoid your weaknesses.

Since Hefei has taken it and won the time to build the city's defense line, it is natural to defend the city well.

"What do you think?"

Lu Xun's eyes flickered, and he said: "The words of the Metropolitan Governor are certainly reasonable, however, if you blindly defend it, I am afraid it will be difficult to hold Hefei, even if you have time to repair the city, can the repaired city really block the Wei army from attacking the city?" ”

"What do you mean?"

Guard, guard!

He, Sun Quan, is also fed up with the days of being a wreck.

I, Jiangdong Jian'er, am not inferior, am I born to hide in the city and be a turtle with a shrunken head?

"My lord, your subordinates are still the same, keep the Wei army out of Hefei!"

The enemy is outside.

The idea is good, but...

How can this strategic goal be achieved?

Sun Quan's suspicious eyes were naturally seen by Lu Xun.

"The water diverter enters the water, unites with the infantry army, strikes Chengde, and wins Chengde, then Hefei will be in the hands of the lord!"

After Zhang Liao and Cao Hong were burned in Wei Village, they had already withdrawn into the city of Chengde.

With nearly 10,000 soldiers, although Chengde City is not a strong city, it is not easy to capture it!

Even if you use a water master, it is only possible to attack the city.

Sun Quan's eyes flickered, and on the side, Gu Yong immediately got up and said: "Bo Yan's plan is very dangerous, there are 10,000 Wei troops in Chengde City, how to take it down before Cao Pi's army comes?" It's too risky, my lord, according to the opinion of his subordinates, I still follow the strategy of the Grand Governor! ”

After Gu Yong got up to express his position, several more people came forward later, and the meaning expressed was not much different from Gu Yong.

Sun Quan sat on the main seat, and when he saw everyone's expressions, most of them were afraid that they would choose a safe way like the governor.

He remained silent, and just said: "With the strength of Jiangdong alone, I really can't compete with the Wei State, but what if there is the help of the heir of Liu Gongji of Jingzhou?" ”

Liu Gonghei?

Everyone was stunned.

While everyone was thinking, Sun Quan clapped his hands and gave the attendant beside him a look, and the latter immediately understood, and shouted at the top of his throat: "Summoning Sima Zhuge Jin into the hall!" ”

Zhuge Jin?

Gu Yong gasped.

This man has returned from a mission, and I don't know it.

Cold sweat unconsciously broke out on his forehead.

Lu Meng frowned slightly, but he didn't speak.

Lu Xun is always an old god, and he has known this news for a long time.

In a moment, Zhuge Jin, who was dressed in a strategist's robe, walked in slowly from outside the hall.

"Minister Zhuge Jin, meet the lord!"

"Get up."

Sun Quan waved his hand, helped Zhuge Jinxu up, and then asked: "This time as an envoy, can the heir of Liu Gonghe, the prince of Hanzhong, agree to send troops?" ”

The two were already good words last night, Zhuge Jin immediately got up, raised his head and said: "Lord Qi, the prince of Hanzhong, Liu Gonghei, admires the majesty of the lord, and hates His Majesty being humiliated by the Cao thief. ”

This rainbow fart made Sun Quan's smile openly.

"Hahaha! Hahaha! ”

Sun Quan first laughed twice and said: "Then Gonghei Liu is my son-in-law after all, so polite, but he is willing to send troops, how many soldiers can he send?" ”

Zhuge Jin said on the side: "Do your best to serve the soldiers of Jingzhou, guard Jiangxia in the forbidden town, and send troops to Lujiang County at any time, and the prince of Hanzhong, Liu Gonghei, has already gone to Xiyang City in person, and can send troops into Runan at any time. ”

After listening to Zhuge Jin's words, everyone didn't dare to speak for a while.

It's not that I don't dare to speak, but for a while, I don't know what to say.

This said...

How does that sound a bit fake?

"Then the heir of Liu Gonghe, the crown prince of Hanzhong, will really do as promised? Didn't you lie to me Koto? ”

Gu Yong's face was especially disbelieving.

Zhuge Jin's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he said very calmly: "Gu is the truth." ”

"It's just... The prince of Hanzhong, Liu Gonghei, is very cunning, why does he want to help me Jiangdong? ”

I can't figure it out, he Gu Yong can't figure it out!

"Because of the righteousness of the lord, coupled with the concerted efforts of Miss Xiaohu, Mrs. Sun, and Mrs. Bu, this is why the heir of Liu Gongji has been moved."

Three people working together?

Why does that sound weird?

Feeling the strange gazes of the ministers in the hall, Sun Quan suddenly felt that the martial crown on his head had changed color.

"Humph!"

He immediately snorted coldly and said, "I believe in Ziyu's character, he will not be targeted for no reason." ”

Zhuge Jin opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say a word.

What Fang just said, the truth is mixed, Liu Gonghei and his Jiangdong alliance is true, but...

Sending troops, but it was fake.

That Liu Gonghei is as cunning as a fox.

He won't do things that he suffers, and if he wants this kid to suffer, he doesn't have the ability.

"With the help of my good son-in-law Liu Chan, will you be afraid of his Wei army?"

"This..."

Gu Yong's eyes rolled slightly, but he still said: "Far water can't cure your thirst, please think twice." ”

These of his own ministers are really too cautious.

"Papapa~"

He stretched out his hand and slapped it twice, and the attendant beside him hurriedly shouted: "Summoning the envoy of Zang Ba into the hall!" ”

Zang Ba messenger?

Gu Yong was shocked again.

He didn't know when Zhuge Jin returned, why did the Zangba envoy come, but he still didn't know?

Is it true that all the reports I have been reporting on the side of the lord have disappeared?

Not for long.

Dressed in the envoy's robe, Zang Ba's envoy slowly walked into the hall.

"The foreign envoy pays a visit to Wu Hou!"

"No need to be polite."

Sun Quan went straight to the point and asked, "What are you doing when you come here this time?" ”

The envoy of Zang Ba had only been listening outside the hall for half an hour, and he didn't know Sun Quan's intention to see him again this time.

In order to convince his subordinates, let Jiangdong send troops!

This coincides with the purpose of his mission, so Zang Ba's envoy also tried his best to cooperate with Sun Quan.

"My lord Zang Ba, raise an army of 100,000, has Chen soldiers outside Shouchun City, stopped the 200,000 army of the Han thief Cao Pi, not only that, but my lord also invited the prince of Hanzhong to attack the Wei State on three sides, plus Jiangdong help, don't say that Cao Pi brought 200,000 troops over, that is, brought a million troops over, what are you afraid of?"

"What?"

"Is that so?"

"Then Zang Ba can really gather an army of 100,000?"

...

As soon as Zang Ba's envoy said this, the Jiangdong ministers in the hall talked about it.

The envoy smiled lightly and said, "If you don't believe it, you can send an envoy to investigate the information, and if the information obtained is different from what I said, you can take my head!" ”

The fact that this person dares to say such a big thing shows that this matter is true.

It was the most stable Gu Yong, who heard that Jiangdong was in alliance with Liu Chan and Zang Ba at the same time, and his mind was a little shaken for a while.

If this is the case, then there is really a chance to send troops to become virtuous at this moment.

"My lord agreed that if this battle can be won, Jiujiang County will be sent to Jiangdong."

Jiujiang County?

"What?"

Gu Yong exclaimed in surprise and asked, "Really?" ”

The envoy of Zang Ba nodded heavily and said, "This matter really can't be more true!" ”

Jiujiang County, not only Hefei, but also Shouchun!

Guarding the river must guard the Huai.

Guarding Shouchun, he Jiangdong can not only keep the current foundation, but also push the rule to the Huai River area, if such a goal is really achieved.

The scope of this rule is directly expanded by hundreds of miles!

It was Gu Yongdu's heart that was moved, not to mention the ministers under the hall.

Especially the generals, they immediately screamed and asked for battle!

This is a real benefit, take advantage of it, and have merit, this newly acquired land, isn't it for them to share?

There is a battle of hope, and they naturally have to fight hard.

This is in one's own vital interest.

"In this case, you still want to prevent me from sending troops?"

Gu Yong's eyes rolled slightly, and he immediately stepped forward and saluted: "The lord is so well prepared, this matter must be nine out of ten, since this is the case, then why should we stop it?" ”

"Send troops, send troops!"

I don't know who made a noise below, and then, in the whole hall, there were only two words left:

"Troops!"

"Troops!"

"Troops!"

...

Looking at the appearance of the generals who were about to fight, Sun Quan also showed a smug smile on his face.

That's right!

Listen to my Sun Zhongmou, yes!

And in the hall, Lu Meng looked at the complacent lord Sun Quan, and then at the obedient Gu Yong, and the calm Lu Xun, and his brows furrowed even deeper.

Although this Gu Yong has been working against the lord in the hall, maybe it is the double reed played by Gu Yong and the lord?

Whether it's Zhuge Ziyu or Zang Ba's envoy...

Today, the Lord's Church gathered all the people, not like they came to discuss things, but like they came to put on a show.

And...

This scene is really beautiful.

Lu Meng was a little worried in his heart: I hope that the development of the situation will really be as the lord thinks.

It's just that this idea didn't last long, and Lu Meng laughed self-deprecatingly.

What did he think about these questions?

Although he is the governor of Eastern Wu, it seems that he has not been sitting in this position for a long time.

The lord cannot be trusted, and this position will be someone else's sooner or later.

Ay~

Lu Meng sighed.

He was thinking about avenging the revenge of Gangneung that day, but...

In this life, is there really a chance?

...

Three days later.

The east bank of the river.

A few days ago, the Xuzhou soldiers led by Zang Ba set up a camp, which was majestic and covered a vast area.

The flags in the camp are fluttering, and the flags are embroidered with Zangzi patterns, flashing with cold light.

The gate is majestic and tall, reinforced with solid wood, like a huge copper wall, which makes people daunting.

There are many arrow towers in the wall, and each arrow tower has soldiers living in it, holding longbows, and arrows are full of arrow towers, ready to fire at the enemy at any time. The guardrails on the city wall were lined with iron plates, protecting the entire wall, enough to withstand any attack.

Along the inside and outside of the wall, there are dense traps, deep pits, spikes, tripwires, and bow and arrow traps hidden in the deep grass, and any enemy who tries to get close will fall into them and lose their combat effectiveness.

Arrow towers and beacon towers were set up around the camp, standing high on the wall, overlooking the surroundings, and once the enemy army was attacked, the alarm was immediately raised.

The atmosphere of the whole camp was tense and solemn, and the soldiers, dressed in armor and armed with weapons, stood guard on the city walls, waiting for them.

Obviously, Zang Ba intends to stay here for a long time.

However, he wanted to stay, but some people didn't want him to be an eyesore here.

Cao Xiu led the tiger and leopard cavalry, and came to Zang Ba's camp with great momentum, shouting loudly, provoking the Xuzhou soldiers to fight.

"Traitor, dare to go out of the city and fight to the death with your grandfather Cao Xiu?"

"A guy with no eggs, still called a hero? I think the bear is about the same! ”

"Aren't the men in Xuzhou bloody? Will only be a turtle with a shrunken head? ”

"Xuzhou rats?"

...

Cao Xiu's voice was almost hoarse.

However, the Xuzhou soldiers closed the gate of the village and were unmoved, just quietly guarding the wall, without the slightest intention of attacking.

Seeing that the Xuzhou soldiers did not come out, Cao Xiu had to decide to personally lead the tiger and leopard cavalry to storm the camp.

He charged bravely and rushed into the trap area of the camp first, but he did not expect that the archers of Zang Ba who were lying in ambush in the fortress in the trap area were already ready.

With an order, the archers of the Xuzhou soldiers fired thousands of arrows in unison, and dense arrows flew like black clouds, covering the entire charging area. The tiger and leopard rider was overwhelmed by the rain of arrows, unable to advance or retreat for a while, and fell into a state of embarrassment.

Cao Xiu found that the situation was not good, so he had to order a retreat, leading the remnants of the tiger and leopard cavalry to rush out of the camp.

The rain of arrows continued, and the tigers and leopards fled in the rain of arrows, embarrassed.

Zang Ba, who was in the camp, spat fiercely.

"Haw Par ride? I don't go out to the field, I see what you can do with me? ”

He dared to stay here, it was because the line of Xiquyang, Yinling, and Huailing had been opened up by him, and the transportation of grain, grass and materials was smooth, otherwise the back road would be cut off, how could he dare to stay in the encirclement?

Of course...

Staying here is definitely risky.

Cao Pi's army of tens of thousands is around him, and the green land behind him may also be unstable.

The alliance of Liu Gonghei, the crown prince of Hanzhong, and Sun Zhongmou of Jiangdong may not be reliable.

But...

If you want to be extraordinary, you have to risk your own death.

King...

It's not that easy to do!

He is a bully, and now he can only gamble with his life!
