In order to fight for property, two mountain Yue soldiers have already aroused a real fire. They even fought each other in front of the battle.
Not only this pair of Shanyue soldiers, but also a large number of them captured and killed before the battle. They fought with each other for the gold and silver on the ground.
Peng hu couldn't help but get angry when he saw this scene: "you fools, you only know how to rob property and let the Jiangdong army go?"
Although peng hu repeatedly ordered, Shan Yue soldiers were still fighting for property. They could not catch up with Jiangdong army for a moment, and could only sit and watch Jiangdong army go west.
"Hum!"
Cao Cao frowned as he watched the vanguard of the mountain and Yue army stop fighting for the gold and silver property abandoned on the ground.
"Mountain Yue soldiers can't use much, hum!"
Cheng Yu also shook his head: "when Jiangdong is calmed down in the future, these mountain Yue soldiers will be collected for their own use and trained. Then it will be easy to say."
Cao Cao frowned and said, "he ordered the whole army to speed up the pursuit of the Jiangdong army and not to let Sun Quan go."
"Here it is
Cao's army pursued all the way forward, biting the Jiangdong army to death. The Jiangdong army was familiar with the terrain, and those who had made seven or eight turns disappeared. Moreover, many Jiangdong Army soldiers died in battle, which naturally provided help for the main force to escape.
Cao Ren led the cavalry back and rushed to Cao Cao for dozens of steps before he stood still.
"Report to the prime minister that he will be ashamed if he fails to catch Sun Quan." Cao Ren reported to Cao Cao.
"Well, first appease Kuaiji and other counties. Now Sun Quan is just a rootless duckweed. Without Jiangdong several counties, he will not be able to stir up any storm." Cao Cao waved his hand.
Cheng Yu eyes a pile, all kinds of stratagem suddenly rushed to the heart.
"Prime minister, I have a plan. Without our army's help, we can send Sun Quan's head to the throne."
Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and seemed to have thought of something. He said with a smile, "you'll tell me the plan in your heart."
Cheng Yu said with a smile: "in the past, Sun Jian died under the inkstone mountain, and Liu Biao in Jingzhou and the sun family in Jiangdong were mortal enemies. Now Sun Quan has been in trouble. Surely after Liu Biao learned about this, he would not let Sun Quan go. Can we still use our army's help?"
Cao Cao clapped his hands and laughed: "Zhongde is very right. Who do you think is better to send an envoy?"
"Mao Xiaoxian can take this responsibility." Cheng Yu thought a little and then replied.
"Well, I'll send Mao to Xiangyang." Cao Cao nodded.
...
in a mountain road, thousands of Jiang Dongjun troops walked among them, but they were all dejected. They had just lost the battle, and naturally their morale was not high. What's more, some of the soldiers' families are still in Wujun and Kuaiji counties, so many of them fled together on the road. Now, there are less than 8000 soldiers left in the old 20000 strong army, which can be said to be greatly damaged.
As proud as Tai Shici and as calm as Zhou Yu, they can't help but look gloomy and quietly ride on their horses all the way.
"Ziyi, how far away is Chaisang Zhou Yu asked.
"Dudu, you will be here within 80 Li." Tai Shici said in a deep voice.
"You send someone to remove the armor and go to inquire. If you are weak in defense, you will take Chaisang city and take a shelter for our army. Do you understand?" Zhou Yu ordered.
"Here it is
Tai Shici led dozens of riders to Chaisang city to get rid of his armour. Chaisang city is located in Yuzhang county. At that time, Sun Fu was in charge of guarding Yuzhang county. However, he turned to Cao Cao and took away thousands of Yuzhang troops. Therefore, the defense of Yuzhang County today is empty.
The gate of Chaisang city was open, and Tai Shici was bold again. Seeing this situation, he led the cavalry to kill him from the south gate without saying a word. The city was weak in defense and had few guards, so the city was soon captured.
Later, taishici sent someone to invite Sun Quan and the East army of Yigan River into Chaisang City, and cleaned out the chengshoufu, and asked Sun Quan to live in it.
In the Chengshou mansion, a maid served food and wine, but Sun Quan did not think about food and tea, and his appetite was poor. He ate a few chopsticks casually and ordered him to withdraw.
Just at this time, a soldier came in: "my Lord, the governor of Dadu asked to see you."
"Well, please come in Sun Quan was powerless.
The soldiers retired and Zhou Yu came in.
"Zhou Yu visited the Lord."
"Well, governor Dadu, please get up, but I don't know what the governor is here for?"
Sun Quan was lazy.
"Yu wants to apply for the Lord."
"What's the matter?"
"Please send an envoy to invite Liu Biao as an ally."
"What?"
As soon as Zhou Yu said this, Sun Quan was shocked: "if you invite Liu Biao as your ally, don't you tease me?"
It can be said that there is a deep blood feud between the Jiangdong army and the Jingzhou army. Sun Jian, the father of Sun Quan, died in the hands of the Jingzhou army. Moreover, since the two armies have repeatedly fought, they all want to annex each other. Now that the Jiangdong army's power is greatly reduced, the Jingzhou army can't come here to be a wet dog. How can we become allies and friends with Jiangdong army?Zhou Yu's face was as usual: "my Lord, how is the relationship between Cao Cao and Liu Biao today?"
"They are allies. Are they confused?" Sun Quan said strangely.
"Ha ha, it may have been an ally before, but not now."
Zhou Yu said in a deep voice: "now that Cao Cao is in the East with hundreds of thousands of armour under his command, his influence is far better than Liu Biao. He has never wanted to annex Jingzhou. However, Liu Biao will not pay attention to the weakness of our Jiangdong army. If our army is willing to be the vassal of Jingzhou army and resist Cao Cao for Liu Biao, does the Lord think Liu Biao will agree?"
Sun Quan thought a little, and frowned: "governor Dadu has some truth, but even if Liu Biao is willing, his generals and ministers will obstruct him."
The Jingzhou army and the Jiangdong army had a deep resentment. They attacked and killed several times between the two armies, and many soldiers died. Even if Liu Biao agreed, his civil and military ministers would obstruct him.
"No matter what, you can send Lu Zijing. Zi Jing is very eloquent and eloquent. If he is alone, he is afraid that none of the people in the Jingzhou army will accept it. " Zhou Yu suggested.
"Well, send Zijing to Xiangyang."
Sun Quan followed Zhou Yu's advice and sent Lu Su, a military officer, to Xiangyang.
For a while, the envoys of Cao Cao and Sun Quan were sent to Xiangyang, but it was not known who could persuade Liu Biao that the Jingzhou army would eventually become an ally.
Xiangyang City, in the middle of the prefecture.
"Zhou mu, Cao prime minister's emissary Mao Xuan, has come to the post house and asked to see Zhou mu." Kuai Yue bowed to Liu Biao.
"The emissary of Cao mengde?"
Liu Biao nodded: "OK, let him...
" Zhou Mu! Lu Su, the emissary of Sun Quan of Jiangdong army, also went to the post house to meet Zhou mu. " Liu Liang and Kuai also said.
