Chapter 756

On the vast surface of the river, a fleet came chopping waves, loaded with soldiers who were slightly tired after the war, and returned to this land.

Danyang County, Jing County.

"Dudu, our army has arrived in Jingxian county."

"Well?"

Zhou Yu looked up at the familiar scenery, but his heart was heavy.

Not only Zhou Yu, but most of the generals and men of the Jiangdong army are looking dejected. After going out this time, they have lost the battle. What kind of face can they have to come back to see Jiang Dongfu?

While most of the Jiangdong soldiers were silent, the sound of gongs and drums came from outside.

Dong Dong Dong Dong!

Zhou Yu frowned and looked forward. The gate of Jingxian county was opened, and then thousands of people came out. They were jubilant and came out with pigs, sheep and other things. Two young men were carrying a pole, which was upside down and tied with a fat pig. The pig struggled desperately and screamed. However, the four hoofs were firmly bound and could not break free.

There are also some young people holding wine jars in their hands. Drinking is forbidden in the army. These military men have long been greedy for wine. When they see the wine, they almost spill out of the wine on the spot.

"Ha ha, the governor and the children have been working hard. The prefect specially came to work."

A middle-aged man with a slight thin figure came over with a smile on his face and said with a smile to Zhou Yu.

"It turned out to be Duke Youtai. How did you know Zhou returned to Danyang?" Zhou Yu did not understand.

Sun Jing smiles: "Gongyi has already sent someone to inform sun. When sun learns that the governor of Dadu returns, he naturally wants to bring people to reward him."

Zhou Yu sighed: "if you want to punish a defeated general, how can you reward the army?"

Sun Jing shook his head and said seriously: "this is a big change in Jiangdong, but Cao Cao came to join in. I also think Gong Jin is right to give up Lujiang County. After all, Cao Cao has no navy. When our army calms down the rebellion of the remaining five counties in Jiangdong, there is no chance to take back Lujiang."

"How can I not get a reward for my 20000 Jiangdong children fighting with blood?" Sun Jing said seriously.

"Come on, send the pigs, sheep and wine to the barracks, and let the Erlangs have a good meal."

"OK!"

"Carry this pig in quickly, but don't let it run away. This pig can run very fast."

"Come on, this jar of wine is very fragrant. Come and have a taste."

Jingxian father and sheep and wine have been sent to the barracks, see a lot of Jiangdong army greedy can not.

Zhou Yu sighed, but did not say anything. Because of the defeat in the war, the morale of his officers and men had been damaged. Now Sun Jing has come to reward the army and increase the morale is also a good thing.

"Gongjin, winning or losing is a common thing for soldiers. Even heroes like Han Gaozu and Chu Bawang, there are times when they fail. One failure is nothing. The one who laughs at the last is the hero."

Sun Jing patted Zhou Yu on the shoulder and then said, "advanced city, let's discuss what to do next."

Zhou Yu nodded. He ordered Cheng Pu to lead his army to stay outside. He and some of his relatives and generals took hundreds of people to Jingxian.

Jing county looks a bit depressed, and there are not many pedestrians on the main streets. Because Jing county is not the seat of Danyang County, it's only close to Lujiang County. Therefore, Sun Jing comes here to wait for Zhou Yu.

County government.

"Gongjin, how many soldiers are left in our army?" Sun Jing opens the door to see the mountain road.

Zhou Yu said in a deep voice: "at present, there are still more than 15000 soldiers left to fight, and there are more than 2000 wounded soldiers. They can be put into the battle after half a month's training."

Sun Jing breathed a sigh of relief: "the main force exists in the majority, there is still something to be done."

He then said, "Gongjin, what are you going to do next?"

Sun Jing is staring at Zhou Yu with bright eyes. Now Jiangdong is in a state of turmoil. The only thing that can be mobilized is Zhou Yu's army.

Zhou Yu did not think of the cableway: "someone has already thought about it. After a little rest, he immediately sent his troops to the east to help Wujun, and he should fight with the main kilometer to break down XiaHouYuan. Then he went south to help Heqi, smashed the Shanyue people, and transferred people from the Shanyue people to supplement their forces. "

At first, Zhou Yu did not agree that the Shanyue people should be replaced by troops, because he felt that the Shanyue people were not easy to mobilize, and it was difficult to get along with the Han soldiers and soldiers. It was better to completely conquer the Shanyue people and put them into the Han people's household for a period of time before they could be used.

But I can't think of so much now. Jiangdong soldiers are seriously depleted. These mountain and Yue soldiers are born fierce and good at fighting, so they have to catch the strong men in a hurry.

Sun Jing nodded approvingly: "some agree with Gongjin's decision, the more ups and downs, the more mature and prudent."

"Gong Jin."

He suddenly stood up and made a bow to Zhou Yu. He bowed down and looked solemn.

Zhou Yu was a little surprised and reached for Sun Jing: "why should you do this? If you have something to say, it is. ""This is the time when our Jiangdong army is still alive and dead. Please Gongjin for everything!" Sun Jing said solemnly.

Zhou Yu nodded his head and said in the same way: "please rest assured that Yu is dull and will try his best to protect Jiangdong."

"Good."

Sun Jing nodded slowly, got up and said: "in this case, a will not disturb Gongjin's rest. Jingxian's Treasury has already prepared ten days' grain and grass, and some has ordered to prepare enough grain and grass in several counties along the way of Danyang. Gongjin only takes charge of leading the army and does not have to worry about logistics."

Having said that, Sun Jing went out, while Zhou Yu was a little overjoyed. He was worthy of being the Duke of Youtai. He did the preparatory work in silence.

The next thing we need to do is to defeat XiaHouYuan and recover Wujun. XiaHouYuan is not easy to deal with. How to deal with him still needs long-term consideration.

However, before that...

"I don't know what will happen at the end of Dudu's summoning?"

Jiang Qin stood outside the door, holding fist to Zhou Yu.

"Gong Yi, sit down."

Jiang Qin was not affectated. He knelt down and looked at Zhou Yu.

"Gongyi, when you go to Wujun, don't follow your navy."

Jiang Qin frowned: "Dudu, what do you mean?"

"We have enough troops to deal with XiaHouYuan. You still have more important tasks."

Zhou Yu then said, "you lead your troops to garrison in Wanshui and stop Cao's troops crossing the river. As long as you can stop Cao's army, I will ask the Lord for your help."

Cao Jun is covetous for the east of the river. Fortunately, there is a natural barrier of the Yangtze River, which blocks Cao's wild prospect of eastward March. Once Cao's army crosses the river, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"One can leave half of the Navy, enough to intercept Cao's army." Jiang Qin was dissatisfied.

Zhou Yu shook his head.

"Gongyi, don't despise Cao Cao. He is a hero."
