Chapter 877 Zhuge Liangs follow-up strategy
As Zhou Yu saw, those foreign tribes attacking from the west were Wuling barbarians.
In recent years, through the policy of cloth and preferential treatment of the barbarians, coupled with the blessing of the barbarian king's policy of sharing the land, the relationship between the Han people and the barbarians in Jingzhou has become closer and closer, although for most Han people,
They still looked down upon the barbarians, but compared to before, the life of the barbarians under the rule of the Han was getting better and better.
In recent years, the relationship between Jingman and Liu Qi has become closer and closer. Now that Jingzhou has given an order, it is completely reasonable for Wulingman and Xiangjiangman to send large armies to support them.
With Nanjun's pursuers, Jiangxia's pursuers, Jingman's pursuers, and Taishi Ci's intercepting troops heading north, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were now completely surrounded by the remaining enemy forces.
"Capture Sun Ce alive! Capture Zhou Yu alive!"
"Capture Sun Ce alive! Capture Zhou Yu alive!"
Soldiers and horses were shouting for kill from all directions. Coupled with the rain of arrows in the darkness and enemy attacks, the morale of the Jiangdong Army was completely lost. Many soldiers did not obey the commands of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, but fled in all directions.
"Don't be chaotic! Don't be chaotic!" Colonel Jiang Qin was walking around in the military formation, scolding the chaotic enemy troops.
But unfortunately, it has no effect.
At this moment, Taishi Ci rode his horse and led his troops to rush out of the thorn. The halberd in his hand covered Jiang Qin's face in the air and he greeted him.
Jiang Qin heard a voice next to him, turned around quickly, and used his spear to block Tai Shici's halberd.
Just hearing a loud "clang", Taishi Ci and Jiang Qin fought together.
Taishi Ci looked at Jiang Qin with a sneer and said: "You are dead this time!"
"Nonsense!" Jiang Qin roared angrily, and used his strength to push away Taishi Ci's halberd, and then stabbed Taishi Ci in the face with his spear: "You can't succeed for a while, so don't be arrogant! Sooner or later, I will let you know that I am
Jiangdong Yingjie is so awesome!"
Taishi Ci dodged Jiang Qin's spear on the left and right sides of his horse, and said jokingly: "When the three armies were performing martial arts, you were the first general who went out to shoot arrows on behalf of Sun Jian, right? Haha, you dare to do it in front of the two armies with only trivial means.
Show off?"
"Show off or not, I'll kill you more than enough!"
"Really?" Taishi Ci used his halberd to fiddle with the general's spear, then suddenly threw his shoulder hard and counterattacked Jiang Qin with his halberd.
Jiang Qin was counterattacked by Tai Shici, and was in a hurry for a while, with no time to fight back.
Taishi Ci's offensive became more and more fierce and faster, completely suppressing Jiang Qin.
"Jiang Qin, I think you are also a good general. If you are willing to surrender, I would like to introduce you, how about it?"
"Fart! I am a general of the Sun family, how can I surrender Liu Gou?"
After hearing this, Taishi Ci's eyes suddenly flashed.
"If that's the case, then go die."
As he finished speaking, Taishi Ci's halberd struck Jiang Qin in the chest.
The halberd penetrated Jiang Qin's chest, and the tip of the halberd poked out from his back.
A mouthful of blood spurted out from Jiang Qin's mouth. He glared at Tai Shici fiercely, with deep hatred in his eyes, and at the same time, he seemed to have regret.
Taishi Ci suddenly drew his halberd, watched Jiang Qin's body fall from the horse, and loudly ordered the guards behind him: "Cut off his head!"
At the same time, the troops of Wei Yan and Huang Xu attacked Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's main formation from two directions, dividing their troops into several sections. The Jiangdong Army's formation was in chaos and was about to be defeated, with numerous casualties.
Many soldiers were desperate and panicked and even threw themselves into the Xiang River. Some soldiers even surrendered to the Jingzhou Army.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu led their troops to break through the siege and headed east of Jingzhou.
Naturally, the various soldiers and horses in Jingzhou could not let them go and pursued them closely!
…
After a night of bloody fighting, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce finally broke out of the siege and temporarily escaped the Jingzhou Army's pursuit.
Sun Ce suffered four stab wounds on his body and was already half a bloody man. He was barely marching now, but his body was already swaying on the horse and he was in danger of falling off the horse at any time.
Seeing Sun Ce like this, Zhou Yu was naturally very anxious.
"Is there a place to rest ahead? Go check it out quickly!" Zhou Yu ordered the scouts.
The scout hurriedly went to investigate and came back to tell Zhou Yu that Jun County was ahead.
Zhou Yu made a prompt decision and asked his soldiers to escort Sun Ce to Jun County to rest and replenish food.
After arriving in Jun County, I found that it was almost an empty county at the moment.
There is no one in the county office, and the treasury has been emptied.
Zhou Yu didn't think about anything else. He stationed his troops and horses in Jun County and placed Sun Ce in the county office to recuperate from his injuries.
After the medical officer bandaged Sun Ce, he asked him to have a good rest, but Sun Ce refused and had someone call Zhou Yu back.
Zhou Yu came to the county office and saw Sun Ce sitting on the edge of the bed. He whispered: "Bo Fu, why don't you have a good rest?"
Sun Ce smiled weakly: "It's just a minor injury, nothing worth mentioning... How much food is there in this county?"
Zhou Yu shook his head and said: "There is no food. After the people from the county office evacuated, they emptied the treasury, leaving nothing behind... We can only steal food from the people."
Sun Ce pursed his lips, his face seemed unwilling.
"How many troops do we have left?"
Zhou Yu sighed: "Three thousand..."
"There are only three thousand troops?" Sun Ce's face suddenly tightened.
Zhou Yu sighed and said, "Yes."
"There is no food, and there are still so few soldiers and horses..." When Sun Ce said this, he stood up in a hurry and said, "No, we have to leave quickly!"
But as soon as he stood up, he felt dizzy, sat back, and fell back on the bed.
Zhou Yu said helplessly: "Bo Fu, don't be brave. Look at you like this...how can you go away? We can only..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw a guard rushing into the room.
"Captain, something bad has happened. The Jingzhou army has set up camp in the county!"
Sun Ce's expression changed and he shouted: "What?"
Zhou Yu waved his hand and signaled the guard to go out first.
Then he said to Sun Ce: "Bo Fu, you are well rested. I will go out and take a look."
…
Zhou Yu followed the guard and observed outside the county along the Tucheng walls surrounding the county.
As expected, Jun County was surrounded by Jingzhou Army and Wuling Barbarians... He and Sun Ce were completely trapped here.
"This time, there may be no chance of survival." Zhou Yu looked at the layout of the Jingzhou Army, and his heart felt like it was falling into an ice cellar.
Zhou Yu was observing the outside in the county, while Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong outside were also observing the county.
"What do you think?" Pang Tong looked at Zhuge Liang and asked with a smile.
"It's a caged bird." Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan and said, "But we are not in a hurry to attack yet."
Pang Tong wondered: "I just don't understand this. It can be decided in one battle, so why don't we rush to attack?"
Zhuge Liang pointed to the county seat with a smile and said: "Forget it about Zhou Yu, Sun Ce is Sun Jian's eldest son! If he falls here, how can Jiangdong not rescue him? There are not many opportunities to surround the point and rescue him."
Pang Tong suddenly realized what he said.
"Haha, you have so many ideas."
