The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 445
Although Zhou Tai was reckless, his words hit his heart.After all, if Wu Jun really attacks tomorrow, it can also be regarded as a test of the current situation of the Jingzhou Army, and it would be good to find out their specific situation.

Sun Quan turned his head to look at Lu Meng, and asked, "Captain Lu, what do you think of General Zhou's suggestion?"

Lu Meng had his own opinions, at least he didn't think that the morale of the Jingzhou army had recovered from Guan Yu's death.

Lu Meng cupped his hands and said, "My lord, the general also thinks that the Jingzhou army's attack this time is probably not a simple purpose behind the scenes. Moreover, from the general's point of view, the current situation of the Jingzhou army should not have recovered. Even if our army attacks now , it may not be useful."

Sun Quan pondered for a while, and seeing Zhou Tai's face looked a little annoyed, he asked Lu Meng, "If you really want to attack, what should you do?"

Lu Meng thought for a while and said, "Maybe we can start with the fallen Yiling City. In fact, the general just thought about it. The geographical location of Yiling City is very important, but it guards the throat of Yizhou. The Jingzhou Army I'm afraid I saw this in advance, so I suddenly sent troops to capture it."

As soon as Lu Meng said these words, he also gave a concise explanation for what he said just now - I am afraid that the purpose behind the scenes is not simple.Although Lu Meng misunderstood Liu Chan's intention to kill Jiang Qin, he saw the importance of Yiling City, and it was indeed not easy.

Sun Quan nodded and said, "Very well, General Zhou Tai will lead an army to Liao Hua's camp tomorrow to challenge. General Zhu Huan will lead another army to attack Yiling City."

The next day, Zhou Tai led his army to challenge Liao Hua's camp according to Sun Quan's order.But at this moment, the gates of the Jingzhou army camp were closed and they did not go out to fight, so Zhou Tai was so angry that he could only yell loudly outside the camp.

Later, Zhou Tai felt that he was not interested in yelling and scolding alone, so he asked the soldiers to come forward in turn to yell and scold in groups of 100, trying to lure out the enemies hiding in the village.It can be seen that the reckless man is not completely stupid sometimes.

The morale of the Jingzhou soldiers has just recovered because of the killing of the three generals of the Wu army.Now that Zhou Tai's men and horses were yelling and cursing outside the village so arrogantly, they were also scolded one after another.What's even more useless is that now he can only hide in the house, being scolded by others and not daring to go out!There was some commotion in the camp.

Therefore, the soldiers came to see Liao Hua one after another, asking him to let everyone go out to fight Zhou Tai.

Liao Hua's thoughts were similar to those of the soldiers.Although the Jingzhou Army had already killed the three generals of the Wu Army, Liao Hua was still brooding over the killing of Guan Yu by the Wu Army.Therefore, seeing Zhou Tai's behavior was really too arrogant, now that the soldiers came to ask for a fight again, he was going to raise troops to fight immediately.

But before Liao Hua gave the order, he was stopped by Liao Sheng.

Liao Sheng said: "Brother, don't be so impulsive. You need to ask the prince and the two military advisers before deciding on this matter."

Liao Hualue pondered for a while, the prince and the two military advisers had already ordered not to fight.If I lead troops out without permission like this, I'm afraid I will be punished.

But he was always suffocating in his heart, feeling very impatient, so he said: "That bastard Zhou Tai is too hateful, whether it is tolerable or unbearable, I will go and ask the prince for orders to fight! You and I will fight now! The handsome account of the dead son."

Liu Chan was discussing matters with Shi Guangyuan and Wang Fu at this time, seeing Liao Hua and Liao Sheng coming to see him suddenly, he couldn't help feeling a little strange.Because Liu Chan has given them an order to do a good job in the management of Dazhai, and not to let the soldiers cause commotion due to external challenges.

Liu Chan let Zhao Fengchuan and the two come in.

After the ceremony between the two of them, Liu Chan asked, "General Liao, you two are not watching outside, how did you come to see my son?"

Liao Hua stepped forward and cupped his hands, and said: "Your Majesty, Zhou Tai's yelling outside was so unbearable that the soldiers could hardly bear it, and they all came to challenge the general. Please give me a team, and the general will definitely beat them to death. No piece of armor left!"

Just now, Liu Chan, Shi Guangyuan, and Wang Fu both heard the commotion of the soldiers outside.But he didn't go out. After all, there were Liao Hua and Liao Sheng outside, so he still felt relieved.

Now hearing Liao Hua say that the soldiers are going to call for battle, Liu Chan couldn't help but secretly rejoice.Because this shows that the morale of the Jingzhou army is recovering now, and it is not as sluggish as it was a few days ago. This is definitely a good thing.

But the reality is that the morale of the enemy army is at its peak, so there is no need to go out and fight with them.

A strange sneer suddenly appeared on Liu Chan's face, and he said to Liao Hua: "You don't need to fight. Zhou Tai is just a reckless man, why should we bother with his unreasonable troubles?"

How could Liao Hua be persuaded by Liu Chan's understatement, and argued, "But son, aren't you angry that Zhou Tai is yelling like that outside?"

Liu Chan looked at Shi Guangyuan, his face was also calm.Liu Chan said: "If Zhou Tai wants to scold, let them scold. This can only show one point, Zhou Tai became furious because we didn't fight, and he was actually more angry than us in his heart."

How can you even justify this?Liao Hua shouted in his heart, this son's eloquence is too good, but is he also deceiving himself?

Liao Hua immediately said: "Your Majesty, you can bear the anger in your heart for a while, but what should the soldiers do? Using such an excuse will not convince them, and it will only make them feel angry at you, Majesty, thinking that you are too serious to do things. Too weak."

Liu Chan frowned, Liao Hua's words were a little too extreme, and Liu Chan couldn't help but feel a little angry.

Liu Chan said slightly angrily: "I didn't intend to persuade them. You just need to convey it. If you are not allowed to fight, you are not allowed to fight! This is an order issued by this prince himself. If you cause trouble and stir up the prince's emotions, all military laws will be served!"

It seems that Shizi is going to take high-pressure measures.But what makes Liao Hua, especially Liao Sheng feel strange is that this is not the son's usual style.Although the prince has strict requirements on military discipline, he never adopts high-handed tactics. As long as soldiers do not violate military discipline, they are very free in speaking and doing things.When the generals are in meetings, Shizi always lets everyone speak freely, and they can say anything out of line.

Liao Sheng asked, "My lord, if this is the case, is it still useless?"

Seeing that even Liao Sheng seemed to be beating around the bush to fight, Liu Chan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, why are these people so restless now?Maybe there will be big battles in the next month or two, so what should they do?
Liu Chan had no choice but to say: "If it's useless, we'll talk about it later. Go out and help me calm down the soldiers."

Liao Hua and Liao Sheng looked at each other, saluted Liu Chan helplessly, then turned around and left the tent.

At this time, Liu Chan reappeared and continued to discuss the matter with Shi Guangyuan and Wang Fu.

Liu Chan said to Shi Guangyuan: "Sir, I think we should send someone to negotiate with Sun Quan in the past two days, and exchange the corpses of my second uncle, brother Dingguo and Zhou Cang back."

Shi Guangyuan nodded and said: "That's true, lest it's a long night with many dreams. I just don't know who you plan to send, my son?"

Liu Chan didn't answer, but just smiled at Shi Guangyuan.Shi Guangyuan immediately understood, waved his hands and smiled: "This is not appropriate. You know me, sir, and I am really not suitable for this job. I think Mr. Wang Fu is the most familiar with Jingzhou affairs and has assisted Guan Jun. Hou Niannian also knows about Jiangdong's affairs very well. Why don't we let him negotiate with Sun Quan."

Liu Chan nodded, feeling that Shi Guangyuan's words were actually very reasonable.This kind of thing does not depend on how good the person who handles it is, but how suitable the person who handles it is.

Liu Chan immediately looked at Wang Fu.Wang Fu's expression was rather resolute, as if he was doing his part.It seemed that he really wanted to do one last thing for Guan Yu in his heart.

Liu Chan asked Wang Fu, "Mr. Wang, what do you think of Mr. Shi's proposal?"

Wang Fu immediately cupped his hands and said: "My son, please leave it to me at this time. I will definitely handle it properly and welcome Guan Junhou and his son back!"

Liu Chan nodded, feeling moved by Wang Fu.He immediately took up a pen and wrote a letter to Sun Quan himself, nothing more than calling Sun Quan at the same time in advance.

Not long after, Liao Hua suddenly came to see him again.

As soon as Liao Hua came in, he said to Liu Chan: "Your Majesty, Zhou Tai yelled too much outside the camp, and the soldiers became even more agitated. What do you think we should do now?"

The soldiers refused to listen, but of course it was impossible for Liu Chan to suppress them.In fact, in Liu Chan's concept, there has never been a talk about repression, let alone thinking about it.

At this time, Liu Chan suddenly remembered how in another time and space, Sima Yi could not shrink from the important position facing Zhuge Liang's army, which was in the limelight.

Liu Chan smiled slightly and said, "General Liao, go and call some guards. Everyone will stand inside the camp with gongs and beat the gongs for me. I want to see if Zhou Tai's voice is louder, or our army's The gong is loud!"

Liao Hua was a little stunned when he heard that, Shi Zi was thinking too fast!
Shi Guangyuan and Wang Fu laughed when they heard this.Shi Zi's method is really not very clever, but it is very practical...

Liao Hua had no choice but to take orders to go out immediately.

So for a while, there was a loud sound of gongs in Dazhai, which completely drowned out the yelling and cursing of Zhou Tai's men and horses.
