Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Zhou Yu also had some guesses about Cao Cao's plan. Using the battlefield to train troops is also common in the army. It does not mean that soldiers in the army can show strong strength on the battlefield after training.

Only after being tempered on the battlefield can the soldiers in the army truly grow up. Especially in big wars, it will be of great help to the improvement of the strength of the soldiers in the army.

This is also the terrifying part of the Chang'an Army. Among the armies under the princes, Lu Bu's army has experienced the most wars. The battlefield of tens of thousands of people has also been experienced by the elites of the Chang'an Army. Yizhou

The battlefield is coming to an end, which means that Lu Bu's army will become even more elite.

Chang'an's army captured Yizhou, which would pose a certain threat to Jiangdong. However, Jiangdong had no other choice at this time. Only by defeating Cao's army on the battlefield in Jingzhou could Sun Quan stabilize the situation in Jiangdong.

But through the crazy Cao Jun, Zhou Yu saw the difficulty of this war. The Chang'an Army would not provide assistance to the Jiangdong Army at this time. If Lu Bu returned to Chang'an, there would definitely be another change, and the war in Yizhou

There is no real end, which means that Lu Bu will not send troops easily.

If the Chang'an army sends troops at this time, it will be equivalent to destroying the balance on the battlefield. If this affects Cao's army's attack on Jingzhou, it will definitely bring Cao Cao's anger.

Although there are a lot of troops near Chang'an, Qingzhou and Sili areas are likely to become the targets of Cao Cao's venting.

Until the war in Yizhou has completely stabilized, Lu Bu will not anger Cao Cao.

Even if Lu Bu couldn't see it, his counselors could definitely see that it would be most beneficial to the Chang'an Army to allow Cao's army to engage in greater attrition against Jiangdong's army on the battlefield in Jingzhou.

The princes had united to attack Chang'an before. When Lu Bu's power affected the princes, it was likely that the princes would unite again.

At present, all Zhou Yu can do is rely on himself.

Two months of offensive had made the soldiers in the army nervous. However, the soldiers in the army had full confidence in Zhou Yu. They believed that as long as Zhou Yu was in the army, he would lead them to victory on the battlefield.

"Captain, King Wu sent someone to pass the order. If Jiang Xia can't hold it, give up." Lu Su said in a low voice.

Zhou Yu nodded slightly and said: "General, I understand, but these words must not be mentioned to the soldiers in the army."

"My subordinates understand." Lu Su said with cupped hands. On the battlefield in Xiling, Lu Su saw a different Zhou Yu. The methods Zhou Yu showed when dealing with Cao Jun's attack made Lu Su even more admired. Lu Su often

Zhou Yu already had a plan that he didn't take into consideration, and that's why Cao Jun's raids ended in vain one after another.

"If Jiang Xia gives up, Jiang Dong will lose the capital to compete in the world." Zhou Yu said slowly.

"Our soldiers suffered a lot of casualties on the battlefield in Jingzhou. If we do not withdraw our troops, I am afraid it will cause unrest in the people of Jiangdong." Lu Su said.

The war lasted for a long time, and Jiangdong's army could only passively defend on the battlefield. Jiangdong was already talking about whether Sun Quan didn't want to defend Jiangxia. However, on the battlefield in Jingzhou, Sun Quan could no longer see the hope of victory. The strength shown by Cao's army was too great.

Too strong.

However, if Jiangdong's army retreats, Cao's army will definitely not pursue it. In terms of naval forces, Jiangdong's army has an absolute advantage. Just relying on the strength of the naval forces, it can prevent Cao's army from advancing even an inch. Sun Quan has such confidence.

"Zijing, after withdrawing from Jiangxia, the bloodshed and sacrifice of the army officers and soldiers on the battlefield were truly in vain." Zhou Yu said.

Lu Su was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning of Zhou Yu's words. Zhou Yu treated the soldiers in the army very leniently on ordinary days, but he was extremely harsh on the battlefield.

"Captain, the army in the city at this time is the most elite force of the Jiangdong Army. If something goes wrong, has the Commander thought about the situation in Jiangdong?" Lu Su asked.

Occupying Jiangxia does have a huge advantage for Jiangdong, but for the sake of Jiangxia's city, Lu Su thinks it is not worth it to let tens of thousands of soldiers die in the city.

"We will discuss the withdrawal of troops in the future. Cao Cao's army wants to conquer Jiangxia. It is not that simple. Now the King of Jin has killed Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. After Yizhou is pacified, Cao Cao is the most anxious." Zhou Yu

road.

The next day, the defenders discovered that the army outside the city was constantly digging.

After Zhou Yu learned the news, he rushed to the east city wall. After seeing the scene outside the city, his expression changed slightly. At this time, Cao Jun still had nearly 80,000 troops. Cao Jun was able to continuously transport the army to the battlefield in Jingzhou.

They have an absolute advantage in numbers. Once the east wall collapses, it will be extremely difficult to fight against Cao's army with the army in the city.

Cao Jun's attack method made Zhou Yu feel helpless. If Cao Jun launched an attack from the front, it would be basically impossible to break through Xiling City, unless there was a shortage of supplies in the city. For this battle, Zhou Yu carried out

With sufficient preparations, the city now has enough food, grass and baggage to consume the army for three months.

"Commander, if Cao Jun attacks like this, our army will be in danger." Lu Su said.

Zhou Yu walked down the city wall, but his mood was a little heavy. Since following Sun Ce, the two brothers worked hand in hand to build a huge foundation in Jiangdong. They finally captured the counties in Jingzhou. How could Zhou Yu be willing to lose it so soon?

There was no incident of Sun Ce encountering an assassin in Jiangdong, so the current situation would definitely not be like this.

After all, Sun Quan's time as King of Wu was short-lived. He lacked sufficient control over Jiangdong and lacked prestige in the army.

In Jiangdong, news about the battlefield in Jingzhou continued to spread to the palace. Sun Quan was in a very irritable mood. If possible, he would not give up the city of Jingzhou. After losing Jingzhou, he understood what it meant and stuck to the land of Jiangdong.

It was very different from conquering the world. Sun Ce gave him a good start, but soon after, he lost the counties in Jingzhou.

Jiangdong has natural dangers, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. At the same time, Cao Cao also cut off the Jiangdong army's way of attacking the Central Plains and competing with the princes. This was the most uncomfortable thing for Sun Quan.

When the war came, Sun Quan chose to trust Zhou Yu, hoping that Zhou Yu could lead the Jiangdong Army to defeat Cao Jun on the battlefield in Jingzhou. However, Cao Jun was too powerful, resulting in the loss of Jingnan counties and successive betrayals, which made Sun Quan dizzy.

Many of the officials in Jiangdong were loyal to Cao Cao. On this point, Sun Quan had a clear understanding.
