Stay until dawn, at dawn.

With Zhang Liao leading eight hundred tiger horsemen back to the city, the Wu army camp finally returned to tranquility, to be exact, it should be dead silence!

Countless skeletons, piled up with the truth in the camp. A large number of burned baggage was still crackling and burning.

In the camp, there has been silence for a long time! Long!

I don't know who suddenly cried, and then, countless hoarse cries of grief and bitter cries resounded over the Wu military camp.

When Sun Quan, whose face was covered with smoke and dust, fled and returned, and returned to the camp, he felt as if a large piece of flesh and blood had been cut off.

But Sun Quan deserved to be a hero in troubled times after all, and in an instant, he supported his tired body, took the initiative to climb the high platform, and raised his arms.

made an impassioned speech in an attempt to arouse the fighting spirit of the Wu soldiers.

But the Wu army, which was killed by Zhang Liao, has long been demoralized, so how can it be said to rekindle the fighting spirit.

The result is obvious, no matter how hard Sun Quan spares his lips, those Wu soldiers are still demoralized and can't give up all day long.

Seeing that he could not arouse the fighting spirit of the soldiers in the battalion, Sun Quan couldn't make a plan, so he made another plan.

100,000 Wu soldiers, although nearly 10,000 were slaughtered by Zhang Liao and others, and thousands of soldiers and horses took advantage of the night to lose their armor and escape to the mountains and forests to become deserters and bandits.

Even if two out of ten are gone, Sun Quan has 80,000 Wu soldiers under his command.

Therefore, Sun Quan wanted to rely on the tactics of the sea of people to quickly capture Qu'a City, so as to avenge the blood feud of the attack camp and revive the morale of the Wu army.

Unexpectedly, when it was time to attack the city, he found that Zhang Liao had already been deployed in Hefei City for a long time, and prepared a large number of rolling wood and stones, arrows and gold juice.

Even if Sun Quan forcibly attacked the city with 80,000 Wu soldiers, it was difficult to capture Hefei City for a while.

This fierce offensive and defensive battle in Hefei has been fought from dawn to dark, and from dark to dawn, over and over again, after three days and nights.

For each other, there are heavy losses.

The east gate tower of Hefei City was captured by a large number of Wu troops several times, but it was repeatedly recaptured by Zhang Liao's army.

The bones of both sides were piled up like graves.

The blood of both sides flowed like a river, and the blades were still bloody.

The whole city of Hefei shrouded in war is like a ghost and blood city, with the wind howling during the day and the ghosts crying wolves at night.

In the large array of the Wu army, Sun Quan raised his eyes and looked at the city of Hefei that was shrouded in blood.

He felt physically and mentally exhausted, because he knew that his opportunity to go north to the Central Plains had almost been completely cut off.

Even if he now exerts all his forces, at all costs, he will finally seize Hefei City.

But what about after that?

How many men do you have left?

Sixty thousand?

Or fifty thousand?

Or 40,000?

With this bit of soldiers and horses, he wanted to cross the river and march north to invade Gaoyi's Xuzhou, which was tantamount to seeking his own death.

Zhang Liao, who guarded Hefei City, was only an unknown person in the Gao Yi Army.

What if you run into Gao Shun's trapped camp, or Yuan Zuozong's big snow dragon horse, or Chu Lushan's three thousand light horses?

After weighing the pros and cons, Sun Quan finally relented and decided to preserve his strength and withdraw from Jiujiang County for the time being.

But before that, Sun Quan thought of a brilliant idea to minimize the losses of this expedition, or even a slight surplus.

Thinking of this, the corner of Sun Quan's eyes couldn't help but secretly sweep towards Liu Kai next to him.

"Lord Liu, Hefei City is an important town in Huainan, and the city is high and Chijian, which is really easy to defend and difficult to attack. Now that we have been fighting fiercely for days, we can't attack for a long time, and the morale of the army is low, so why don't we withdraw for the time being? ”

Liu Kai smiled bitterly and said: "Wuhou, Hefei City is the fortress of Jiujiang County, adjacent to Lujiang County. If we abandon it, the enemy army will inevitably take Hefei City as the foundation and invade our Lujiang County in a big way! ”

Sun Quan shook his head and smiled: "Lord Liu, don't misunderstand. Ben Hou means to temporarily abandon Hefei City, and our two armies will cross the Huishui River together and go to Qu'a City. ”

"At that time, we will merge with Zhou Yu, just besiege but not attack, and adopt the strategy of encircling the point to send reinforcements, we can wait for work and annihilate all the reinforcements of the high thieves."

"When the thief is isolated and the grain and grass in the city are exhausted, it is the time of the thief's death. When the time comes, don't say that it is to seize Hefei City, even if it is to seize the entire Jiujiang County, or even the entire Xuzhou, it will be easy. ”

After listening to Sun Quan's flickering, Liu Kai suddenly felt like an enlightenment and realized it.

"Good! Then, according to Wu Hou's words, let's cross the Weishui River together tomorrow, go to Qu'a City, surround the point to send reinforcements, and kill the high thieves. ”

……

In the early morning of the next day, Xiaoyaojinkou.

Sun Quan sat on his crotch war horse, standing on the rocky beach, looking at the tens of thousands of horses preparing to cross the river.

The river crossing was divided into 10 batches.

When Liu Kai arranged for the Lujiang soldiers in the camp to cross the river by boat, Sun Quan suddenly invited him to go, saying that he had something important to discuss.

"Wu Hou, you just ordered someone to send a message saying that there is a military consultation, I don't know what is important?"

didn't wait for Liu Kai to finish speaking.

I saw that hundreds of soldiers of the Wu army around had taken the initiative to come up and form a circle, surrounding Liu Kai and his group.

Liu Kai's heart suddenly burst into a heart, and he suddenly felt bad.

"Wu Hou, what do you mean by this? If there is nothing important, then return to the camp and organize a large army to cross the river. ”

Sun Quan smiled warmly: "Crossing the river is a major event in the army, how can you rush it for a while?" I heard that Lord Liu has a treasure and often takes it with him. It just so happens that Ben Hou has been shy, I wonder if you can be generous? ”

"Wu Hou said that it doesn't matter, as long as it is an item that he owns, he will definitely give it to him. Don't say it's a treasure, even if Wu Hou wants to be a concubine in Xia Xinna, it's okay! ”

"That's it, a concubine! What Ben Hou wants is not anything else, but the head of Your Excellency. ”

Hearing this, Liu Kai suddenly felt a piercing chill, and instantly surged into his heart.

He just wanted to open his mouth to shout for help, but unexpectedly, a cold light suddenly appeared, passing through Liu Kai's neck.

Suddenly, a dead head rolled off Liu Kai's corpse and slammed into the ground.

Looking at Liu Kai's head, Sun Quan said with a sinister smile: "Lord Liu, in fact, Ben Hou doesn't want to kill you, but he blames the high thief's soldiers for being fierce, and he can't beat it, he really can't beat it!" ”

"Wait until Ben Hou subdues the more than 30,000 Lujiang soldiers under your command. In the future, every year of Qingming and Chongyang, Benhou will give you a few sticks of incense to thank you for your gift today. ”

"Herald, you hurried to the camp of the Lujiang soldiers, and said that a small group of enemy troops had just come to attack. Lord Liu Kai was unfortunately killed, and his body was already in a different place. ”

"Let all the generals in their army come to collect the corpse for Lord Liu."

Just after the herald had left.

Sun Quan put on a gloomy face and shouted to the hundreds of guards around him:

"Later, you'll all have your bows and crossbows ready. After those generals in the Lujiang soldiers arrived in this open area, they directly fired arrows and shot them all here. ”

"Remember...... Not a single one to stay! ”

Just when Sun Quan was plotting to kill the generals of Lujiang.

But I don't know what they did, but they have already been seen by the wolf rider scouts hiding in the shadows.

It didn't take long for Zhang Liao to learn the news after a gallop all the way to report.

I want to attack, but I'm afraid that there will be deception.

In the end, Zhang Liao decided to lead the eight hundred tiger horses first and go to Xiaoyaojin to go again.

When Zhang Liao came to the Xiaoyaojin ferry.

happened to see many generals in Lujiang County, who were led to an open area by Sun Quan, and were collecting the remains of Liu Kai.

During this period, a Lujiang general felt that something was wrong and was about to ask Sun Quan, but found that Sun Quan had sneaked away while they were collecting the body.

Only the remains of them and Liu Kai remained.
