Under the Pingyu City in Runan, it has become a meat grinding ground.
Jiangdong's 100,000 troops besieged Pingyu for more than a month, but they were still unable to enter Pingyu County!
Man dotes on this guy, he is so good at guarding! It even made Jiang Dongjun feel a little desperate.
In terms of military ability, Man Chong is not inferior to those famous generals of Cao Wei at all.
Historically, Man Chong defeated the invasion of Soochow five times while guarding Huainan. Even the famous Soochow general Lu Xun was just a younger brother to Man Chong, and could not escape the fate of being chased away in despair. Man Chong also deliberately
He built a new city and took the initiative to provoke and lure Sun Quan to attack. As expected, Sun Shiwan fell into the trap and came to visit, and then he was pampered and rubbed...
Although it is not Sun Quan or Lu Xun who is leading the army now, when it comes to commanding land battles, Zhou Yu is actually not much better than them. In history, when Zhou Yu led the army to attack Nanjun, he was beaten up by Cao Ren, and even almost
I risked my life in it.
Facing Man Chong, who is more defensive and calm than Cao Ren, Zhou Yu experienced for the first time what it means to be unable to bite a hedgehog when it is bitten by a dog.
Jiangdong Army, inside the Chinese Army tent.
Zhou Yu sat on the main seat, while his generals gathered together.
But both Zhou Yu and other generals were frowning and speechless at this moment.
The veteran Cheng Pu couldn't stand it any longer. He took the initiative and asked: "I never thought that a man with a low reputation could be so powerful. Gong Jin, what should we do next?"
Zhou Yu did not answer Cheng Pu's question, but sighed: "I should have thought of it earlier...sigh..."
"What should I have thought of earlier?" Cheng Pu asked with some confusion.
Zhou Yu closed his eyes for half a second, then opened them again. His dark eyes looked extremely deep, and he fell into a state of memory.
"According to detailed information, Na Manchong once followed Lu Yan for more than a year, and his relationship with Guo Jia is also extraordinary... How can such a person be an unknown person?"
Zhou Yu sighed and continued: "We were all careless and underestimated Man Chong! I should have given him enough attention a long time ago. After all, who can be mediocre next to Lu Yan..."
When Cheng Pu heard this, he smiled bitterly and said: "Man Chong has always been a civil servant before, who would have thought that he would also make great achievements in the military."
Huang Gai also said bitterly, "The traitor Cao has so many talented people!"
A prefect, with 8,000 defenders, actually blocked 100,000 of their soldiers outside the city...
Shame? Maybe... Anyway, Huang Gai felt a little hot on his face.
After being dragged in Pingyu for more than a month, the original plan to quickly raid Xuchang was probably ruined. One can imagine Zhou Yu's mood.
But now they are riding a tiger and cannot get off, and have to continue to besiege Pingyu.
Lu Meng, the first general of the younger generation, stood up and said: "Actually, if we can capture Pingyu and occupy Runan County, we can be connected with Jingzhou. As long as our two families join forces, we can continue to deter Cao Cao."
Zhou Yu said nothing, not knowing what he was thinking...
Jiangdong Army has already captured Lujiang County. If they capture Runan County again, they can form a pincer attack on Huainan.
If Jingzhou, Xiliang, and the grassland aliens work harder to hold off Cao's army for a year and a half, maybe they can really seize Huainan and further encroach on the Central Plains.
But the idea is always beautiful, but the reality is often very cruel.
When Cao Cao discovered that Jiangdong Army and Jingzhou Army were causing trouble under his nose, how could he remain indifferent?
It's just that Cao Cao doesn't have any soldiers or generals, so he's really embarrassed...
...
The night is getting darker, but the lights in the Prime Minister's residence are still brightly lit.
In the meeting hall, everyone was at a loss.
Seeing that Cao Cao's face was very ugly, Xu Chu, who had always been "understanding", stepped forward and said: "My lord, how about the last general leading the five thousand Tiger Guards to support Runan? After all, if Runan County is lost, we can
My butt is bare!"
"Bad thing!" Xun Yu glared at Xu Chu and couldn't help laughing and scolding: "You and Dian Wei didn't learn anything, but you learned these vulgar words?"
"Who said that!" Xu Chu of course gave up and retorted: "I also learned the words of the sage!"
"Oh? Do you also know the language of saints?" Cao Cao couldn't help but become interested after hearing this, so he asked: "Say a few words and listen!"
Xu Chu coughed twice, cleared his throat, lifted his belly, and then said in a pretentious manner: "The cannons are firing to blast his mother, and we are returning to our hometown across the sea. The heroes are here to live forever, and the giant whales are here to swallow the fusang."
"..."
Shocked!
Everyone, including Cao Cao, was shocked!
"This... this is so weird..." Cao Cao felt a little dizzy, and his temples were beating suddenly... He rubbed his temples for a while, and then he finally returned to normal.
Lao Cao took a few deep breaths and then asked Xu Chu: "You said you learned it from Dian Wei?"
"Yes, my lord, how is my carrying?"
"Fool!"
"What's wrong? Isn't the sage's words wrong?" Xu Chu still looked confused.
"What a saint's words!" Xun You finally couldn't help but burst out. He pointed at Xu Chu's nose and shouted: "Which saint can say 'bang his mother'? Which saint can know about Da Pao and Lu Changsheng? Also,
, where is Fuso? Isn’t this full of nonsense!”
Xu Chu shrank his head and did not dare to say anything. He looked aggrieved like a little daughter-in-law.
Xun You finally managed to straighten out his tone, and finally asked: "Tell me, who did Dian Wei learn it from?"
Cao Cao didn't want to dwell on these things anymore. He waved his hand and said, "No need to ask. I probably heard this from Mr. Lu and pieced it together..."
"..."
At this time, Xi Zhi asked: "By the way... Speaking of sir, my lord, you should have sent several urgent letters, right? Why haven't you heard anything from me yet?"
Cao Cao was also puzzled. Even though Lu Yan usually fished for fish, he was never ambiguous in matters of right and wrong, life and death.
But this time, why did he go out of his way and send six urgent and confidential letters, but there was still no word from him?
Thinking of this, the familiar figure of Tiandao's diary immediately appeared in Cao Cao's mind, and he thought: "Today's diary should have been updated... I hope there is some useful information today. I really want to see what Mr. Lu is doing.
Fame."
Thinking of this, Cao Cao could no longer restrain his restless mood.
He pretended to meditate for a moment, and then said to several of his close advisers: "Gentlemen, it's getting late today, so you should go back and rest first. I will write another letter tomorrow. I believe Mr. Lu will get a reply."
Since Cao Cao has issued an order to expel guests, Xi Zhicai and others will naturally not force them to stay.
They stood up one after another and said goodbye with their hands in hand: "Master, please rest in peace, my subordinates say goodbye!"
"Farewell!"
Cao Cao glanced at Xu Chu, who was still standing there, and asked, "You idiot, why aren't you leaving yet?"
"That lord...you really don't want me to rescue Runan?" Xu Chu asked still unwilling to give up.
Cao Cao replied unceremoniously: "Go back and sleep!"
"Here!" Xu Chu clasped his fists and took the order and left.
