Chapter 2164： : Zhou Yu Assassinated (Part 1)

They don’t want to be the ministers of the revitalization of the Han. As for the overthrow of the current Han’s rule and the establishment of a new court, the family will not support it for the time being. They don’t want to give up their interests. Once the dynasty changes and the family’s strength is not enough to affect the monarch , The loss of the family will be even greater.

The different attitudes of the princes toward the aristocratic family determine what kind of mind the aristocratic family will have. What the aristocratic family under Lu Bu wants most is to enable the family’s children to have greater deeds in the officialdom or the military, so that the family’s The influence is greater, and the members of the aristocratic family are developing toward business. In Chang'an, there are many business opportunities. With the strength of the aristocratic family, as long as you choose to do business, you can have considerable development in a short period of time. The aristocratic family has enough Capital, which allows them to go further on the road of business.

The reason why Cao Cao was afraid of Lv Bu was precisely because of the cohesion under Lv Bu's rule. Now he has Shouchun and Jingzhou in Xuzhou, Yuzhou, Yanzhou, Yangzhou, but the officials under his rule are not so pure, mainly because of the influence of the family. It's too big, and Cao Cao can't ignore the influence of the family like Lu Bu did.

Confronting the aristocratic family, only Lu Bu did such a thing. The other princes comforted the aristocratic family more often. The influence of the aristocratic family could change the status quo under the rule. If Cao Cao and Lu Bu had the same choice, the war in Jingzhou had already happened. No need to proceed.

The strength of Lu Bu made the family feel the urgency. With the expansion of Lu Bu's army, the living space of the family will be greatly compressed. This situation makes the family feel the urgency.

"Master, if the assassin fails to succeed, Zhou Yu's revenge will be drawn." Cheng Yu said.

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Is this Hou still worried that Zhou Yu's children's revenge will not be successful? Zhuge Liang had the reputation of Wolong in the world. However, he was not defeated by Ben Hou on the battlefield of Jingzhou. He repeatedly failed on the battlefield of Yizhou. "

Xun You nodded slightly. Even if these so-called resourceful men became famous when they were young, it would be very difficult to do something if they could not be tempered on the battlefield.

Any counselor does not mean that they can have such abilities after learning. They need to respond in time according to the situation on the battlefield. Just as they cannot handle the situation on the battlefield well, they will fail. Zhuge Liang is Very good description.

It was late at night, and the Chinese Army’s Great Tent in Xiling City was still brightly lit. Cao Jun’s continuous siege for half a month caused Jiang Dong Army to pay a considerable price. Facing Cao Jun’s thunderbolt attack, Jiang Dong Army could only be passively defensive. This situation is extremely unfavorable for the Jiangdong Army.

However, what Zhou Yu needed was security. On the battlefield of Jingzhou, the Jiangdong Army experienced a disastrous defeat. The city originally belonged to the Jiangdong Army has now fallen into the hands of Cao Cao. If Xiling was broken by the Cao Army, the Jiangdong Army would have to retreat back to Jiangdong sadly.

Cao Cao is not comparable to Liu Bei. It is very difficult to seize control of Jingzhou from Cao Cao's hands. The battle between the princes has gradually become clear. Zhou Yu's defeat is inevitable in Zhou Yu's view. Unable to obtain sufficient benefits in this battle, Jiangdong Army will be the weakest among the princes, and it will exist at the discretion of others. This situation is not what Zhou Yu wants to see. He and Sun Ce are brothers. , For Jiangdong, even if he died on the battlefield, in Zhou Yu's view, he would not hesitate.

"Now the Cao Jun’s attack on Xiling is fierce. All the generals need to do is to guard the city when the Cao Jun is attacking the city, and take the opportunity to prevent the younger generations in the city from taking the opportunity to cause chaos. It fell into the hands of Cao Cao." Zhou Yu said solemnly.

Although the generals in the army were a little puzzled about such orders, they did not dare to violate Zhou Yu's orders. Zhou Yu had absolute prestige in the army, and now he is even the commander in the army.

"Captain Cao, the Cao army has attacked the city fiercely. Although the loss of our army is not much, the morale of the generals in the army is low. If the fighting continues in this way, it will be even more disadvantageous for our army." Lu Su said.

Zhou Yu smiled and said: "You don’t need to be impatient. Cao Jun is more anxious than Jiangdong Army. There is news from Yizhou that Liu Bei led the Yizhou Army and the Chang’an Army in a decisive battle. The loss of 50,000 elites was exhausted. There are only a few who followed Liu Bei back to Chengdu. Ten people, once the King of Jin pacifies Yizhou, how can Cao Jun easily break through Jingzhou."

Although the generals in the army rarely considered these things, Zhou Yu's words still made sense. In any case, what Jiangdong Army needed was victory. Only a victory can wash away the humiliation of Jiangdong Army on the battlefield of Jingzhou.

Zhou Yu didn't want to send an army out of the city to fight Cao Jun. However, through the siege of Cao Jun during this period, it can be seen that Cao Jun is extremely tight in defense, even though the cavalry in the army is on guard when attacking the city Although the Jiangdong Army has a certain strength in the cavalry, there is still a big gap compared with Cao Jun's cavalry, which can be seen from the previous battles between the cavalry of the two sides.

The existence of Cao Jun cavalry is the greatest deterrent to Jiangdong Army, otherwise Zhou Yu would have ordered the soldiers to go out of the city and burn the enemy's thunderbolt.

What Zhou Yu did not expect during the Cao Jun’s siege was that this kind of Thunderbolt, which could reach 400 steps in range, completely suppressed the defenders. If it were not for the competitive relationship between Lu Bu and Cao Cao, Zhou Yu even It is suspected that Lu Bu gave Cao Cao the method of building the giant Thunderbolt.

"The Governor, if our army is defeated on the battlefield of Jingzhou, Cao Cao will take the lead. Why doesn't King Jin send an army to contain Cao Cao at this time? There are still tens of thousands of troops near Chang'an. As long as the Chang'an army makes a slight gesture, Contain more power from Cao Jun." Lu Su said in confusion.

Zhou Yu said: "The King of Jin is plotting Yizhou and wants to completely defeat Liu Bei. Before he can completely occupy Yizhou, King Jin will definitely not send an army to contain Cao Jun. If it attracts Cao Cao's terror, he then sends troops to attack Qingzhou or Hanoi. , It will inevitably make Chang'an shake. At this time, King Jin needs stability."

The generals nodded and said yes. Zhou Yu's analysis of the situation on the battlefield made them feel very reasonable. Many generals in the army even hope that Lv Bu can calm Yizhou as soon as possible, making it difficult for Cao Jun to be in Jingzhou. There is greater action on the battlefield.

After discussing the defense, the generals of the various ministries left one after another, but Zhou Yu kept Lu Su down. The situation in the Jiangdong army was indeed not optimistic, and Jiangdong attached great importance to Jiangxia's war.
