Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 2229: Fu Gongyou surrendered to Jin, Zixu's helplessness

Speaking of the Jinwu brothers, in the original novel, they were killed one by one by Yang Jian with his axe.

But at that time, Yang Jian was clearly at the peak of his anger, which did not mean that these Golden Crow brothers were as vulnerable as they looked.

Each of these Golden Crow brothers has reached a peerless level.

Especially the strongest boss, whose strength has reached the peak of the world.

After all, although the other Jinwu brothers were killed one by one by Yang Jian's axe, this one almost turned the tables.

The five men joined forces and killed the brothers Yang Shikui and Yang Shipeng as soon as they appeared. Generals Li Tianchang and Li Ping once joined forces to fight, but facing the siege of the five brothers, in less than ten rounds, not only did they kill Li Ping, but they also made Li Tiancheng seriously injured and fled.

After this, the Jin army began to pay attention to the Jinwu brothers and sent out four people including Fei Peng, who was at the level of a god general, to fight, but the result was still not ideal.

When the five brothers joined forces, they definitely had the combat power of a god general. Fei Peng alone could hardly defeat these five people, and he was even injured by them.

In the Battle of Nanjun, Li Mu took advantage of the fact that the troops from northern Jing were moving towards Jiangxia and that Nanjun was weak, and mobilized most of the main forces of the Jin army from northern Jing to attack fiercely for ten days. A series of generals represented by Tan Tai Yu fought hard and finally captured Nanjun.

During this battle, the Jinwu brothers and the general Fu Gongyou were left behind by the Nanjun commander Du Fuwei to cover their retreat.

Since Xu Da was preparing to move the focus of Jingbei eastward to Jiangxia, he brought Lu Er and other generals to Jiangxia to take charge. As for the affairs of Nanjun, he handed it over to General Du Fuwei to guard it, and he was assisted by General Fu Gongyou.

The Jinwu brothers who were left behind, under the command of Fu Gongyou, took advantage of the geographical location and successively repelled the three generals Deng Feng, Geng Gong and Geng Bing who were chasing them, and killed the Jin general Jiao Tonghai in the process.

However, the three generals Deng Feng, Geng Gong and Geng Bing led only a small force of the Jin army, and repelling them meant nothing at all.

Soon, General Fu Cunshen, after joining forces with the remnants of Generals Deng Feng, Geng Gong, and Geng Bing, gathered a large group of troops and attacked all the way. Although the Jinwu brothers fought desperately, the troops responsible for the rearguard had no reinforcements and could only be consumed bit by bit.

During this period, Shi Jingsi, Yang Dayan and Hou Yi teamed up to fight against the Jinwu brothers. However, even with the three of them joining forces, they could not do anything to the five brothers.

However, although the three men joined forces could not do anything to the five brothers, the five brothers could not harm the lives of the three men in a short period of time.

As a last resort, the three men resorted to a strategy of feigning defeat. The second brother of the Jinwu brothers was so eager to kill that he easily chased out. During this process, Houyi discarded his sword and replaced it with a bow, and shot the second brother of the Jinwu brothers to death with one arrow.

Seeing their brothers die, the third and fourth brothers of the Jinwu brothers were filled with grief and anger. They each brandished their weapons and rushed forward to kill, but were easily shot dead by Houyi.

Fortunately, the eldest of the Jinwu brothers was relatively calm. Although three of his younger brothers died in front of him in succession, he still suppressed the grief in his heart and did not rashly fight with Houyi again.

Hou Yi holding a bow and Hou Yi holding a sword are definitely not opponents of the same level.

As the strongest among the Jinwu brothers, he fought desperately to carve out a way for his younger brothers, but he himself did not have time to run away. He was blocked by the troops led by Geng Gong and Geng Bing. Finally, after a hard battle, he was shot and killed by Houyi who was chasing him.

As for Fu Gongyou, who was also appointed as the last general, after the Jinwu brothers died in battle, he probably knew that there was no way to heaven or hell today. At the last moment, he thought about drawing his sword and committing suicide, and even put the sword on his neck. But until the last moment, no one knew whether he had the courage to face death!

Obviously, Fu Gongyou still lacked a little courage. His face struggled again and again, and his hands, which were holding the sword, were even a little blue because he used too much force.

After struggling again and again, and gritting his teeth again and again, he still couldn't make up his mind. After a long sigh, he finally threw away the sword in his hand helplessly.

"Hey! I really thought I met a tough guy!"

"After all this time, this is all you put on for me!" Shi Jingsi, who was enjoying the show, said with disdain.

If he really drew his sword and committed suicide, Shi Jingsi would still regard him as a man, but after all this time he ended up doing this, which made Shi Jingsi despise him even more.

At least most of the warriors on the battlefield look down upon such cowards.

Fu Gongyou could clearly hear Shi Jingsi's disdainful tone.

But when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. When you are afraid of death, your bottom line is determined and you will only retreat again and again in the face of death.

However, the person who was most affected by the defeat in Nanjun was not actually Xu Da.

But it was Wu Zixu's troops.

Nanjun is one of the most strategically important counties in Jingzhou. It controls the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, controls the throat of the Nanyang Basin into the Jianghan Plain, and holds the lifeline of the Yangtze River's east-west traffic.

The focus of Wu Zixu's defense against Wang Jian's troops was that the infantry units would take advantage of the terrain in the areas of Yiling and Baidi City to build countless strong camps and fortresses to block Wang Jian's infantry troops layer by layer, while the main force of the navy would control the Yangtze River waters in the Nanjun area to cut off the possibility of the enemy's main force crossing the river.

If Wang Jian's infantry troops broke through too quickly and Qi Jiguang's main navy could not keep up with Wang Jian's speed, then Wu Zixu could order the main navy to harass Wang Jian's back along the Yangtze River.

Therefore, this is why, because of the Jin army’s navy’s successive unfavorable battles, Wang Jian was forced to fight with restraint on land.

However, Wu Zixu and his men finally defeated Qi Jiguang, and it could even be said to be a great victory.

In this way, Wang Jian would be forced to retreat for a while.

But now that Nanjun was lost, the main infantry forces in Yiling and Baidi City were no longer safe. After Li Mu completely captured Nanjun, he could attack their rear at any time and cooperate with Wang Jian and his men to attack from the front and back.

Therefore, although he finally won such a big battle against Qi Jiguang, because of the sudden news from Nanjun, Wu Zixu had no choice but to abandon all defenses in Yiling and Baidi City areas, and with the cooperation of the navy, transfer the troops here to Jingnan and Jiangxia areas.

From now on, Wang Jian's troops will soon join forces with Bai Qi's troops in victory.
