Xiangyang City, Cishi Mansion.
Zhou Yu had sent troops to attack Jiangxia. As the ruler of Jingzhou, Liu Biao could not ignore the war in Jiangxia.
Moreover, the one fighting Zhou Yu this time was his youngest son, Liu Jue, whom he had high hopes for. Jiangxia could not afford to lose to Jingzhou.
"Zhou Yu's army is approaching Wuchang City and using the navy to harass Xiakou. The situation doesn't seem optimistic.”Liu Biao looked at the battle report sent by Liu Jue and frowned at Cai Mao and the others.
"My lord, you don't have to worry. Third Young Master, it's the best policy for you to defend Wuchang City and not fight Zhou Yu head-on.”Cai Mao cupped his hands and said.
"There is a problem with Shan Yue in River East. Although Zhou Yu is aggressive, if he can't take it down for a long time, the fighting spirit of the soldiers will definitely be greatly affected.”Kuai Yue also said.
"I don't know if Jue 'er can defend Wuchang. Order the soldiers of Xiangyang to be ready to reinforce Jiangxia at any time.”Liu Biao said in a deep voice.
"Here!" Everyone below replied in unison.
If Jiangxia fell into Jiangdong's hands, Jingzhou would be a piece of fat meat in Sun Quan's mouth, and he could eat it whenever he wanted.
……
Jiangxia, Wuchang City.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.
During this period of time, unless it rained, Zhou Yu would definitely lead his troops to attack the city.
Even Liu Jue felt physically and mentally exhausted from the feint attack, let alone the soldiers under him.
Fortunately, he was the commander in chief. Every time the enemy attacked the city walls, Liu Jue would always take the lead and charge forward, so the morale did not fall.
And this time and time again, Liu Jue's body also had a bit of iron-blooded aura!
The sky had already darkened. Zhou Yu once again sounded the bell to withdraw his troops and retreated more than ten miles away.
In the prefect's mansion, Liu Jue had gathered Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, and the other generals to discuss how to deal with the enemy.
Huang Zhong's expression was very solemn as he said,""Young General, Zhou Yu has been using this feint tactic for more than half a month. I believe the time for the real siege is coming soon.”
Actually, even without Huang Zhong's words, Liu Jue knew that Zhou Yu was about to make the final battle.
However, as long as they could beat back Zhou Yu's final attack, the Jiangdong army would not be able to fight anymore. Zhou Yu would definitely retreat back to Chaisang.
However, could Wuchang City really withstand Zhou Yu's full-powered attack?
After these days of fighting, Huang Zhong and the others could clearly feel that the quality of Zhou Yu's soldiers could indeed be considered elite soldiers. They were not so easy to defeat.
The atmosphere in the hall was heavy. Gan Ning suddenly said,"Young General, it just so happens that the sky is already dark. Why don't you let me lead a group of people and sneak attack Zhou Yu's camp at night?”
Liu Jue shook his head and said," Zhou Yu is a famous general in Jiangdong. Since he dares to attack Jiangxia, he will definitely guard against our night attack. If we go rashly, we will probably fall into his trap."”
Huang Zhong also nodded." A night raid is too risky. What we need to do now is to boost the morale of our soldiers and block Zhou Yu's last wave of attack."”
Everyone fell silent. They knew very well that if they could block Zhou Yu's fiercest attack, Wuchang City and the entire Jiangxia would be safe.
However, it was foreseeable that Zhou Yu's final attack would be extremely fierce.
At that time, corpses would be strewn all over Wuchang City, and blood would flow like a river.
Liu Jue saw that everyone was worried, but he wasn't too worried. He still had a trump card in his hand, so he would definitely be able to defend Wuchang City.
However, Liu Jue was very unhappy that he had won this war just like that.
In the past half a month, Zhou Yu had been feigning attacks and sending his subordinates to curse at the front of the battle. Liu Jue had long been holding back his anger.
Hiding in the city like a turtle, Liu Jue would not feel happy even if he managed to defend Wuchang City.
Only by making Zhou Yu suffer a crushing defeat could he completely quell the anger in his heart.
Liu Jue kept thinking as he looked at the map in front of him to see if there was any way to defeat Zhou Yu.
Soon, Liu Jue noticed a place called Yang Zhen.
Yang Town was located in the east of Wuchang City, less than 40 miles away from Wuchang. It used to be a prosperous town, but because it was plundered by River East a few years ago, it was now deserted.
From the map, Yang Town was located between Wuchang and Chaisang, right behind Zhou Yu's army.
When Liu Jue thought of this, an excellent idea instantly flashed through his mind. His eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Zhou Yu, oh Zhou Yu, not only will you fail this time, you will lose miserably!
When everyone saw Liu Jue suddenly laugh, they could not help but look at each other.
"Why are you laughing, Young General?" Huang Zhong asked.”
"I'm laughing because I already have a way to defeat Zhou Yu!" Liu Jue said with a smile.”
Everyone could not help but be shocked. Huang Zhong hurriedly asked,"Young General, do you have any good ideas?"
"I'll keep the method a secret for now!" Liu Jue smiled and said. General Huang, please select a hundred elite soldiers when you return later. It would be best if there were people who were familiar with the terrain.”
Huang Zhong was puzzled, but he still replied,"Please rest assured, Young General. I will definitely go and make the necessary preparations.”
"Everyone, rest well tonight. Tomorrow will be Zhou Gongjin's crushing defeat," Liu Jue said confidently.”
Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Su Fei, Chen Jiu, and the others were less worried when they saw Liu Jue's confident expression.
However, everyone was very curious. What method did the young general have to defeat Zhou Yu in one fell swoop?
That was the famous Duke of Zhou Jin!
After Huang Zhong and the others left, Liu Jue went back to his room to wash up and sleep.
Liu Jue lay on the bed and thought of the grievances he had suffered in the past half a month. He could not help but clench his fists and think fiercely,"Zhou Yu, you've been arrogant for more than half a month. It's time for you to have a taste of defeat!”
The night passed quickly.
The next day, just as the sky was about to brighten, Liu Jue had already woken up. He had put on the Red-refined Treasure Armor, and the Green Sparrow Saber hung at his waist.
In front of Liu Jue were 100 lightly armed soldiers with ring-headed sabers. Among them were more than a dozen scouts who were familiar with the terrain.
Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Su Fei, and Chen Jiu were all present, and they all looked at Liu Jue.
"General Huang, I'll leave Wuchang City to you. We'll counterattack Zhou Yu at noon."”
Huang Zhong cupped his fists and said,"Please rest assured, Young General. Huang Hansheng swears to live and die with Wuchang City!"”
"Very good!"
Liu Jue nodded. He turned to Gan Ning and the 100 soldiers and shouted,"General Gan and the other soldiers, follow me out of the city.”
"Yes, sir!" Everyone shouted in unison.
The gates of Wuchang City opened. Liu Jue rode the Sea Dragon Stallion rewarded by the system, leading Gan Ning and a hundred soldiers toward the south.
