Xiaoguangong

Chapter 363 You have to solve this matter
Sun Quan gathered an army of [-] this time, and basically gave up the defense to the west.

Because he was very aware of the abilities of Ma Liang and the Jingzhou family. They had already controlled Le Jin, and the upstream army was no longer a threat.He is also very clear about Guan Yu's character. This person is dedicated to the Northern Expedition, and Guan Yu will never join the Eastern Expedition before he flattens the Central Plains.

So he boldly sent troops to attack Hefei. The [-] troops first broke through Dangtu, which had been difficult to take down before, and cut off the connection between Hefei's north and Shouchun, making Hefei completely isolated.

Sun Quan is still a brave man after knowing his shame. He summed up the previous mistakes and decided to start a bloody battle with the enemy here. If Cao Pi's reinforcements dare to come, they will be killed in rivers of blood.

And the vanguard is now under the command of Zhuge Jin, and began to surround Hefei on three sides and began to launch a fierce attack.

Zhang Liao and Li Dian fought bravely and tried their best to command the defenders to resist.The soldiers guarding Hefei used to trust Zhang Liao, who had been invincible in many battles before, and Sun Quan often used massacres to vent his anger on cities that had been difficult to break into. For their own wealth and lives, the defenders in the city were extremely determined to resist , Repeatedly repelled Zhuge Jin's attack.

Although Zhuge Jin was a well-known and trusted gentleman, his commanding skills really needed to be improved. Seeing that the defenders in the city were resolute in their resistance, he could only stand on the watchtower and worry.

Others Gan Ning, Ling Tong, Lu Meng and others also stood on the watchtower and watched. Although they saw many flaws in the city, they were afraid that Zhuge Jin would stretch out his fingers and let them attack the city after telling them, so they all chose to keep silent. Without saying a word, I just watched Zhuge Jin's army continue to consume.

When Zhang Fei was under Zhou Yu's command, he saw that Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu were constantly attacking Jiangling City with troops, and he once went up to the watchtower to take a look, and soon discovered that there was a problem.

The soldiers under Zhou Yu's command did not replenish after losing their troops. Every time they went to the city, they were half-novice people who were not familiar with the situation of the city's defenders, so they fought very hard.

At that time, Zhang Fei asked a question of the soul—why not add some soldiers and horses to the few garrisons and teams that had lost their troops in the city before, and let those soldiers who had survived the battle bring recruits to fight, and replenish them after losses, at least when fighting There are a few veterans with combat experience leading them. At least some people can know what to do at critical moments when fighting.

But Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu glanced at Zhang Fei, saying that Zhang Fei was not good at fighting, and said that Zhang Fei, who had fought all his life, was depressed, and dared not make any ideas for a long time.

In fact, it cannot be said that Zhang Fei cannot fight, it can only be said that Zhang Fei does not understand this very complicated Soochow Army at all.

The Sun family's father and son are from Jiangdong, but the local clans in Jiangdong don't want to see these landowner-born fighters at all. It started to split gradually.

Except for the Huaisi elite soldiers, Gan Ning, who is the most capable fighter, has a very bad relationship with everyone. He always does his own thing, and he fights by himself, and he is not willing to cooperate with others in fighting.

Zhuge Jin dispatched the army to attack the city for a while, and he was already a bit out of support, but he knew that if he retreated voluntarily and handed over the main attack position, he would not use his subordinates as the main attack to seize the Central Plains in the future, which would seriously affect his follow-up interests.

If you can't let your side seize more benefits, it's better to get nothing at all.

Zhuge Jin's face was heavy, and he kept urging his subordinates to increase their troops, trying to send all the insignificant soldiers under Zhang Liao's command to the underworld as soon as possible.

Sun Quan was still calm on the surface, but on the third day of the siege, he couldn't help standing on the watchtower and looking into the city.

He looked at the tall and mighty man holding a pair of halberds standing on the enemy building in the south of the city, and his uneasiness gradually grew.

He clearly remembered that Zhang Liao's name appeared frequently in Hefei's handwriting in the bible book that Sun Ben handed him.

This fierce general has indeed become a stumbling block on his way forward. He only regrets that when he was not defending the city before, he was actually scared away by Zhang Xi's so few troops and missed a good game.

This further proves that Hefei must be his destiny, as long as he breaks through here, everything will be different.

He was about to personally command the siege, and his subordinates hurriedly sent Zhang Zhao's letter for help. After reading Guan Yu's letter to Zhang Zhao, Sun Quan was full of anger and threw the letter on the ground.

"Zijing, look at it, look at it, is this Guan Yu speaking human language!"

Lu Su's right eyelid has been twitching for the past few days, as if he had a premonition.Seeing Sun Quan talking about Guan Yu, he seemed to understand immediately. He quickly bent down to pick up the letter, took a closer look, and smiled wryly again.

Guan Yu told Zhang Zhao in the letter that he already knew what Sun Quan had done. This was obviously an act of treachery. Guan Yu was very angry. Of course, they will not attack directly with troops, but they still have to express a firm protest to Sun Quan and demand an apology from Sun Quan.

At the end of the letter, Guan Yu also said that he had learned that Le Jin was going to send an army of [-] to the east. Guan Yu would definitely try to stop it considering the kindness of the Sun-Liu alliance. Whether he can stop it is another matter.

This has almost clearly slapped the threat on Sun Quan's face. If Guan Yu and Le Jin joined forces, and the [-] troops went directly to the east of the river, Zhang Zhao would not be able to stop it even if he tried his best, and he might directly penetrate Sun Quan. All defenses, directly to Jiangdong.

This shocked Sun Quan to the core.

Guan Yu didn't say it clearly in the letter, but everyone knew how Sun Quan had offended this fierce general, but the more so, the more Sun Quan couldn't admit it, and he simply took the blame on Lu Su's face.

"This Guan Yu has always been arrogant, and his words are not condescending. Previously, Gu had always tolerated big things, but I didn't expect him to threaten me with this now."

"Gu used to be quite tolerant to the coalition army before, and Zijing also said that although Guan Yu is arrogant, he will not do anything to destroy the coalition army. Look, what is he writing!?"

Lu Su was silent. He was a loyal promoter of the Sun-Liu alliance. The success or failure of the alliance was closely related to his honor and disgrace. He was powerless to prevent Sun Quan from betraying Guan Ping before.

But now is the critical moment of the Hefei War, and Lu Su is unwilling to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

After thinking for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said:

"I didn't expect Guan Yu to be so treacherous, it really made the world laugh.

It's just that the general is now at the juncture of the Northern Expedition, and he should be patient for the time being, not to expose his crimes, so as not to disturb the morale of the army and disturb the soldiers. "

Lu Su said not to expose Guan Yu's crimes, but in fact he advised Sun Quan not to go up, lest the two argue, and the Northern Expedition fails, and the Sun-Liu allied forces take the lead in fighting, which makes the world laugh.

Sun Quan snorted coldly, feeling more and more annoyed.

Isn’t it just uncovering the matter of Guan Ping? Sooner or later, this is also for our army’s Northern Expedition to use some means. Why did you, Guan Yu, overreact so much, and now you are threatening me with Le Jin.

How could most people know that Guan Yu and Le Jin were actually together? If Le Jin really went east as Cao Jun, Sun Quan really had no choice but to admit defeat.

He thought for a long time, but his eyes finally locked on Lu Su.

"Zijing, now Le Jin has mobilized all the troops, so we have to guard against it.

Divide the troops alone... [-] are with you, you must guard Xiakou, and you must not let the powerful enemy advance eastward. "

"Supreme?!"

Lu Su's heart skipped a beat, and his face was filled with pain.

The [-] army has decreased by [-], and it still looks unstoppable on the books, far exceeding the number of Hefei defenders.

But all the way to the west and all the way to the north, the supply of luggage and the recruitment of civilians will cost a lot, which may directly affect the morale of the Jiangdong Army's Northern Expedition, and it is very likely that the entire battle will fail.

This dispatch of troops is related to the success or failure of the Northern Expedition, and it is also the lifelong wish of Zhou Yu, Lu Su and others. If this incident leads to the failure of the battle, it will be a great pain that Lu Su will not be able to erase in his life.

If I had known earlier, when Sun Quan wanted to spread Yunshan's identity in the army, he should have tried to stop him, but now...

"The subordinates only need [-] soldiers and horses, and they will definitely stop Yun Chang." Lu Su said decisively.

But Sun Quan still refused to rest assured.

"With 1 people, if there is a mistake, our army will open the way.

On that day, Gongjin needed 3 people, Qing and I needed [-], and Xiakou's defenders added [-] to make Gu feel at ease.

If there were fewer troops, Gu would have trouble sleeping and eating even in Hefei.

Go now, before there is any further delay. "
