Lu Dynasty

Chapter 809 Jiangdong withdraws troops?

Just when Guo Jia and Liu Xian were chatting happily, there was a sudden shout of killing outside, it turned out that the Jiangdong Army had begun to attack the city!Originally, Guo Jia wanted to chat with Liu Xian for a while, but when the shouts of killing sounded, Liu Xian's expression turned miserable and his body began to tremble.Seeing how frightened he was, Guo Jia couldn't help shaking his head, and picked up the teacup to taste the tea carefully.In fact, it's not Liu Xian's fault. In the past, the Jiangdong army always lost at Jiangxia, and never hit Jiangling.And even if Jiangdong loses, Jiangxia will only defend the city!Every time Jiangdong attacked Jingzhou, a large number of people would always be taken away.Although Liu Xian has lived in Jiangling for a long time, he knows very well what happened to Jiangxia.Now that Liu Bei actually gave the important town of Jiangxia and Xiakou Port to Soochow, and he was in Jiangling, so he had confidence in Guo Jia and Zhou Buyi, so he was inevitably a little frightened!You know, in the eyes of Jingzhou people, Jiangdong is a tiger and a wolf!
The shouting didn't last long before it subsided. Liu Xian was so frightened that he almost collapsed on the chair!Guo Jia didn't want to embarrass him by inviting him, so he arranged for him to go down to rest.As for the fear of hearing the shouts of killing again during the rest, that is not Guo Jia's business!After Liu Xian left, Wenpin and others came to the prefect's mansion to report the military situation to Guo Jia.Seeing the generals covered in blood, Guo Jia smiled and said, "You lazy fellows, don't wash off the blood!" Of course, what he said was to Huang Xu and Pang De.

"The military commander doesn't know. We wanted to go to wash up at first, but we suddenly remembered something and didn't go!" Huang Xu and Guo Jia have a good friendship, and they are also sick and sympathetic, so they are naturally closer, Guo Jia's joke , and only he dared to take it.

Guo Jia laughed and said, "I'd like to see what excuses you have for being lazy!"

"The military commander didn't know that Ling Ming was going to take a bath! But I said: 'It's noon now, unless the Jiangdong army doesn't come, or you will get blood all over your body, why don't you let someone wash your armor first, as for taking a bath? Naturally, it will be late at night. Ling Ming came here in blood!" Huang Xu said with a smile: "Besides, we are all generals. If we get a little blood, we have to take a bath. What if we turn into a bad face? , General Zhang Fei is so rough, but he used to be a poor-faced scholar!"

"Lazy!" Guo Jia laughed and said, "If the Third General hears what you said, he will definitely fix you!"

"Cut! I'll call him uncle anyway, how could he blatantly bully me! Besides, with my martial arts, it's really not so easy for him to deal with me!" Huang Xu said with a smile: "The military master has never heard that sentence As the saying goes? Hit the young ones, come the old ones! If General Zhang is not afraid that my father will make trouble for him, just clean me up!" Huang Zhong, a veteran, followed me a long time ago. Although he is now old, his prestige has long Already forged.Both Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have seen his martial arts when he was young, and even Lu Bu dared not underestimate him. As for Guan Yu who once said Huang Zhong was an old soldier with disdain in history, now he can only admire him!And Huang Zhong's love for this only son is not ordinary.Of course, they are very measured, and my military law must not be violated!

"It's really a rascal!" Guo Jia said with a smile: "This is the end of the joke. Now the Jiangdong Army should be testing. Have you found anything?"

"Jiangdong Army is a very orthodox method of warfare, encircling three and missing one! But they don't have several times as many troops as ours, so it's strange to do so!" Wen Pin frowned and said: "In the past, Jiangdong Army always picked a city gate when they attacked Jiangxia. However, there has never been such a situation, it seems that Zhou Yu and Sun Ce are determined to win Jiangling City!"

"Not necessarily!" Guo Jia said with a smile: "Now it's just a probing attack, I really can't see anything. After the two sides fight for a long time, we will definitely see the tricks in it. What we have to do now is to keep Jiangling City!"

"Military teacher!" Huang Xu is Huang Zhong's only son. Although he has shown extraordinary abilities after recovering from his illness, in order to keep Huang Zhong alive, I have always asked Huang Xu to lead troops to guard the pass. Even if he arrives in Jingzhou, it is because of Huang Xu His wife gave birth to him a big fat boy.First, there are Huang Zhong's successors, and second, as a general, no one wants to be idle!Now that we finally encountered a great battle, Guo Jia actually insisted on holding on, Huang Xu immediately said: "Military Master, the Jiangdong rats took advantage of the king's recovery of Xichuan to attack, obviously disobedient to Wang Hua! If we just stick to it, wouldn't we fall into the king's ranks?" The prestige of our army? Also ask the military adviser to design a big breakthrough in Jiangdong, so as to promote our army's military prestige!"

"It's to show your prestige!" Guo Jia said with a smile: "Don't worry, if Jiangdong's army has a flaw, I will let it go, but if not, I really can't do anything! After all, the lord has no intention of taking Jiangdong. , just relying on us, at most we can guarantee that Jingzhou will not be lost! If we are eager for quick success but lose Jingzhou, then we will live up to the high expectations of our lord!"

"There is a military adviser here, so the Jiangdong rats will run away with their heads in their hands?" Huang Xu regretted it as soon as he finished speaking, seeing that Guo Jia was a little worried, he quickly smiled and said: "The king often said that a lion fights a rabbit with all his strength, I will never forget it. However, I also believe in the ability of the military division!"

Guo Jia rolled his eyes and said, "Don't flatter me. It's a credit to defend the city well. Don't say anything! Before I died, everyone listened to General Wen's command. If Jiangdong Army has any changes, report it quickly Me! If there is nothing else, the generals should go to have a rest and eat in preparation for the big battle!" All the generals clasped their fists and retreated, leaving only Guo Jia sitting in the hall alone, with the corners of his mouth curled up, he said silently: " Zhou Yu? Zhuge Liang? Let me show you what I, Guo Jia, are capable of!"

In the afternoon, the Jiangdong Army arrived as scheduled. After a fierce battle, countless corpses of the Jiangdong Army were left on the ground.On the second day and the third day, the Jiangdong army attacked Jiangling City as if they were going crazy. The generals who fought were miserable, but Li Yan, who was guarding the south gate, was quite relaxed. This made Guo Jia see the problem.If it is really encircled and lacks one, the north gate should be released to let the defeated army retreat to Xiangyang, but Zhou Yu released the south gate.Guo Jia looked at the information, and the Jiangdong Army should have gone all out. If they said that they still had an army ready to raid the South Gate, then the number of troops exceeded the number in the information. After all, a certain number of troops is needed to attack the West, not a hundred. 80 people will be able to succeed!
Guo Jia put down the information in his hands and rubbed his temples. He really couldn't see what Zhou Yu wanted to do.Suddenly, there was a loud cheer, and then a small school came to report that the Jiangdong army retreated and asked Guo Jia if he would pursue.Guo Jia just wanted to give an order, but he blocked the words in his throat. He speculated in his heart: It is impossible for the Jiangdong Army to retreat so easily. Could there be an ambush?Guo Jia pondered for a while and said: "Don't chase! Let Tanma watch from a distance, I suspect this is Zhou Yu's plan!"
