When Taishi Ci came out of the canyon, he looked back and saw that the veins on his arms were pulsing with tears in his eyes and his hands were tightly holding the sword. His heart was filled with sadness. When he came, there were ten thousand troops, but now there were only a thousand soldiers and horses left. This made him
How to accept it.
Although he has suffered defeats since he became a general, he has never been defeated since he followed Sun Ce. In the past half month, he has experienced his previous defeats again, and now his entire army was almost annihilated.
.
Taking a breath, Taishi Ci took another look at the injured thousand soldiers and horses behind him and waved his hands to leave. He knew that if he didn't leave now and wait until the soldiers and horses above the canyon arrived, they would never be able to leave again.
Su Fei on the canyon looked at Tai Shi Ci who opened the mouth of the canyon and left. He immediately led his troops to the mouth of the canyon, but Tai Shi Ci and others had already left. Although he was a little unwilling, thinking of Xu Shu's instructions, Su Fei could still hold back the restlessness in his heart.
Orders were given to sort out the battlefield, and at the same time the soldiers were ordered to go up the mountain to cut trees and set up a camp at the mouth of the valley. An hour later, a camp had been established at the mouth of the valley. This camp happened to block the mouth of the valley and no one could quietly go to Ai County.
Inside Zhou Yu's big tent in Xiushui County, Zhou Yu was planning to attack Xiushui County tonight. He didn't have to go to such trouble at first, but the plan seemed perfect, but he was a little uneasy. He looked at the plan over and over again to confirm that there was no problem. Zhou Yu shook his head and said to himself
I think too much.
"Grand Governor." Han Dang walked in quickly and said anxiously: "Oh no, there's a fire in the camp."
Zhou Yu looked at Han Dang and asked doubtfully: "Where is the fire?"
Han Dang pointed in the direction of Jianchang and said: "There is a fire in the Jianchang camp."
Zhou Yu immediately stood up and said with disbelief: "What?" Then he shouted: "No." After saying that, Han Dang immediately left the camp and looked to the east, only to see that half of the sky in the east had turned into
Red, brighter than the sunset in the west.
Zhou Yu looked at the sky in the distance and finally realized what was wrong. He had always thought that Xu Shu was pretending to surrender, but only now did he remember that Xu Shu did this on purpose. A simple strategy led him out of the camp, divided his troops, and then destroyed them.
He had always thought that Xu Shu's talent could not reach high even if he was high. Now he saw that Xu Shu's talent was probably no less than his own. Thinking of this, Zhou Yu felt a little annoyed and angry that he had underestimated the world's heroes. In the past few years, he had underestimated the world's heroes.
The smooth sailing made him relax his vigilance.
Now that he knew Xu Shu's plan, it was of little use to stay here. Zhou Yu turned his head and glanced at Xiushui County Road: "Beat the drum."
Han Dang knew that Zhou Yu had something to do and asked him to go and deliver the order. After a while, the sound of low drums rang out, and the soldiers above and below the city got into high spirits. Twenty thousand soldiers and horses in Xiushui County quickly gathered together. Zhou Yu,
Han Dang was always on horseback wearing armor.
Xu Shu, Huang Zhong and others on the city also rushed to look at the Jiangdong soldiers and horses below the city. Huang Zhong looked at the high-morale soldiers below the city and said, "Is it possible that Zhou Yu is going to attack the city now?"
Xu Shu shook his head and said, "No, they didn't bring ladders or other siege tools when they came today. Zhou Yu may have seen through my plan this time."
Zhou Yu slapped his horse and stepped forward to shout to the city: "Is that Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi?"
Xu Shu was stunned and came to the city wall and said to the people: "I am Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi. I wonder if the governor has any advice?"
Zhou Yu looked at Xu Shu and said: "I didn't expect that I, Zhou Yu, who prides himself on being unparalleled in knowledge, would be defeated by you today. Meeting me today can be regarded as fulfilling a wish. I am convinced that I lost today and will compete with you again in the future. I will say goodbye."
"After speaking for a while, the 20,000 troops behind him slowly retreated without any panic.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu is also a wonderful person this time. Xu Shu was a little surprised by Zhou Yu's performance. After all, people like them who are not arrogant will not admit failure easily. Zhou Yu admitted failure in public this time because of Xu Shu's talent.
The second is to declare a challenge to Xu Shu. He will come to compete with Xu Shu in the near future. Only then will the real fight between dragons and tigers begin.
Now that Zhou Yu has left, it is useless for Liu Pan to stay outside. Xu Shu said to the messenger behind him: "Send the order for General Liu Pan to return to the city immediately."
"No." A soldier turned and left.
Half an hour later, Zhou Yu's army returned to Jianchang. After re-camping, Zhou Yu called Han Dang and said: "General Han, you bring three thousand troops and horses to meet General Taishi."
Han Dang was shocked and said hurriedly: "No." Then he stood up and went to mobilize his troops.
Before they even left the camp, they saw a thousand soldiers coming back supporting each other. One of them was Taishi Ci. At this time, Taishi Ci didn't look as majestic as a thousand soldiers. His helmet had been left somewhere, and his hair and shoulders were disheveled.
The bright red blood wrapped in a piece of white cloth stained the entire chest red, and the armor was also covered with blood.
Looking at Taishi Ci in front of him, Han Dang couldn't believe it and stepped forward to help him. Before he could ask what happened, he shouted to the camp: "Go and ask for the doctor quickly." There was no scruple in this voice, and he was worried even in his anxiety.
It wasn't that much, but the loudness of the sound directly alarmed Zhou Yu in the tent.
Zhou Yu walked out of the tent and looked at Taishi Ci in front of him in disbelief. Just as he was about to ask, Taishi Ci suddenly knelt down in front of Zhou Yu and choked with sobs: "I will not be able to defeat the Governor. I did not complete the tasks assigned by the Governor.
There were heavy casualties.”
Zhou Yu helped Tai Shi Ci and said, "Zi Yi does not need to blame himself. This time it is all Gong Jin's fault and has nothing to do with Zi Yi. Zi Yi should recover from his injuries first."
When Taishi Ci wanted to say more, Zhou Yu waved his hand, helped him into the tent, and ordered people to go and ask for the doctor.
Half an hour later, Taishi Ci's wounds had been re-wrapped, and the thousand soldiers and horses he had brought back had also been treated. Zhou Yu called the doctor and asked, "How is General Taishi?"
The doctor shook his head and said: "General Taishi is not in fear of his life, and the governor does not need to worry. It's just that General Taishi needs to rest for a while, and I'm afraid he won't be able to recover."
Zhou Yu breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Taishi Ci is fine, that is more important than anything else. "From now on, you will be responsible for taking care of General Taishi. You must not neglect him in the slightest."
The doctor hurriedly said: "Please don't worry, Commander."
Seeing that the doctor had retired, Zhou Yu asked someone to invite Han Dang. Zhou Yu had never seen Xu Shu before. This was the first time they fought, but he lost. If you want to defeat your opponent, you must first understand him, and Mo Mo knows Xu Shu best.
Too much for Han Dang and Tai Shi Ci. Now that Tai Shi Ci needs to rest and cannot be disturbed, he has no choice but to start with Handang.
Not long after, Han Dang arrived at the tent, and Zhou Yu asked Han Dang about every matter between him and Xu Shu in detail before letting Han Dang leave.
Liu Pan of Xiushui County returned to Xiushui County with his soldiers with a depressed look on his face. This time, both Zhou Cang and Su Fei fought, but he was the only one who failed. Not to mention fighting against Zhou Yu, even seeing Zhou Yu.
Not seen.
Xu Shu is naturally aware of Liu Pan's thoughts, but he has no time to comfort Liu Pan now. Zhou Yu's talent is not in vain. This time, because Zhou Yu did not understand him and looked down upon himself, he was defeated. But Jiangdong
It didn't hurt his muscles and bones. Zhou Yu still had 20,000 troops under his command, so he had to worry about it.
The most important thing is that there is no news about the lord Liu Qi until now, as if he has evaporated. Chen Qi has been exploring Jiangdong for a long time but has not found any trace of Liu Qi and others.
