Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 742 I, Sun Quan, are the Lord!
Before arriving at the camp at Fankou, Zhou Yu's personal guards saw from a distance that the flag on the top of the camp had changed, and they all couldn't help complaining secretly.

In desperation, they had no choice but to carry the dying Zhou Yu to the south, trying to return to Chaisang City from the more concealed mountains and forests.

Zhou Yu was lying on a stretcher, his eyes were dull and his expression was dead.

Since Zhou Gongjin started his army, when has he suffered such a big defeat that he was so embarrassed?

A series of schemes that he was proud of were all seen through.

It's like a young child, no matter how clever he is in front of adults, it's nothing but trivial skills after all.

How could Zhou Yu, who had always been proud and arrogant, bear this?
"Cough, cough, cough!" Whenever Zhou Yu thought of all these things, he would feel depressed and painful.

Hearing Zhou Yu's cough, one of his soldiers quickly came to Zhou Yu with a water bag and asked, "Governor, you are awake! Come, drink some water!"

Zhou Yu barely lifted his head and drank a few sips of water, his dry lips and throat finally got some moisture.

"Where is this?" Zhou Yu looked at the dense forest around him, and couldn't help asking in a hoarse voice.

The guards looked at each other, and finally decided to hide the real situation for the time being, after all, if Zhou Yu got angry twice, he would ascend to heaven
"Great Governor, we are now on our way to Fankou Camp, and we should be there in two days."

When Zhou Yu heard that the Fankou camp was still there, his eyes regained a gleam, and he asked, "Is the Fankou camp still there?"

"Still!"

"That's good, that's good!" Since the Fankou camp hadn't been completely lost, it meant that Sun Quan had rescued the besieged soldiers, or even better, they had blocked Cao Jun from crossing the Yangtze River.

"The situation is not too bad. Finally, I can feel more at ease." Zhou Yu felt better. The exhaustion from the past few days hit him again, and he fell asleep again drowsily.

Looking at Zhou Yu's already disfigured face, the guards had an infinite shadow in their hearts, "Mother, how should I confess to the governor when I go back?"

The others didn't know what to do, they were all silent.

After a long while, someone finally had a flash of inspiration and suggested, "Why don't we hide the situation from the governor, and then report the situation to the lord? With my lord's brilliance, I will be able to appease the governor!"

"Forget it, that's all." The others couldn't think of a way, so they could only agree with this person's way.

After one night and more than half a day of fierce fighting, Cao Jun successfully defeated the Jiangdong Army who came to attack, and took the opportunity to capture the two camps of Chibi and Fankou.

The specific casualties and captured prisoners have not yet been calculated, but in addition to the warships that Cao Jun took out to be burned, two three-masted warships and a dozen small boats were sunk.There were more than 1000 people who died on the boat and those who fell into the river and disappeared. The casualties did not seem to be large, but it sounded the alarm for the sailors and soldiers.

Three-masted warships are not invincible with artillery, and Sun Quan's trebuchets can still cause damage to them.

The two three-masted warships that were sunk this time were sunk because they underestimated the enemy, got too close and then were blown up by the catapult.

However, in the battle from last night to today's daytime, Cao Jun wiped out tens of thousands of Wu Jun's main forces, and he himself suffered more than 1 casualties. In the center of the most intense battlefield, this level of casualties is inevitable.

General Cao Ying came to return.

It is estimated that their soldiers have gained a lot, so all of them have bright smiles on their faces.

Fankou camp, Sun Quan's camp has now been occupied by Su Fei.Cao Cao did not relax his vigilance, and ordered his army to cross the Yangtze River immediately, and he was relieved until he established a complete cross-river supply line.

Until this time, Cao Cao ordered a big celebration banquet, which completely relaxed the soldiers for three days.

……

Sun Quan, Cheng Pu and his party did not return to Chaisang City until midnight.

Along the way, they were silent. Although they were all exhausted, they did not force themselves to rest until they got to the city, where they barely rested for one night in the rebuilt Chaisang city.

At dawn the next day, the county government office in Chaisang City was already full of civil and military officials.

Sun Quan sat on the throne, ready to discuss with everyone the next strategy to deal with the enemy.

I am afraid that there is no need to say more about the current situation. Everyone knows that Zhou Yu's life and death are unknown now, and Cao Jun's crossing of the river is already a certainty.

The natural danger of the Yangtze River no longer exists, so they now have to focus on how to stabilize the situation and how to block Cao Cao's further attacks.

In the hall, there was no sound.

All the civil and military officials bowed their heads in silence, not knowing what they were thinking.

Only Lu Meng's face was obviously anxious, and he was very worried about Zhou Yu's safety.

But Sun Quan didn't open his mouth, and Lu Meng couldn't ask directly. After all, he, like Huang Gai and Zhou Yu, was the planner and participant of Zhou Yu's plan, and from the current point of view, only him, Lu Meng, is still alive and well.
At this time, everyone selectively ignored Lu Meng's existence, which was actually another kind of protection.Otherwise, such a major strategic mistake will definitely be held accountable.

In the hall, the highest rank in the army is another governor, Cheng Pu.

Cheng Pu looked at Sun Quan's expressionless face, knowing that Sun Quan was the scariest at this time, but other people could keep silent, but he couldn't stay silent for a long time.

Cheng Pu sighed inwardly, then stood up and said: "My lord, for the current plan, we should block the river mouth on the Chaisang line as soon as possible to prevent Cao Jun from going down the river.

At the same time, fortifications must be built on land to resist Cao's advance from land.

Our army is newly defeated, and there will definitely be turmoil in the rear. Those Jiangdong aristocratic families suppressed by the lord may take the opportunity to collude with Cao Cao, alas..."

As Cheng Pu spoke, he couldn't help sighing.Without it, the current Jiangdong is like a warship riddled with holes. One hole is blocked, only to find that there will be more holes.
After hearing Cheng Pu's words, Sun Quan's face changed a little, but his face became even uglier, "In your opinion, Chaisang can still hold on?"

Hearing this, Cheng Pu replied with a wry smile: "It should be possible to hold on now, but it probably won't last long.

Even a fortified city like Xiangyang can't stop the artillery attack. Although the newly built Chaisang city wall is tall and thick, it can't compare with Xiangyang city.
And even if I wait to defend for a long time, Cao Cao only needs to attack from other places, and our army may be defeated one by one.

If the governor is not here, there will probably be rebellions in Yuzhang and Luling."

It’s okay not to mention Zhou Yu, but Sun Quan’s face immediately changed when Zhou Yu was mentioned.

It is extremely rare for Sun Quan to lose his composure in public like this.

Everyone was silent in Sun Quan's anger, not even daring to take a breath.
