Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 721

After Pang Tong took Xiapi, he sent people to Houqiu and Siwu to inquire, and the news came back three days later that Pang De and Zhang Xi led their troops to storm the second county, and each lost more than a thousand to take the two counties.

When the news of Pang Tong's victory reached Liu Wei, Liu Wei felt relieved and let out a long breath.

Guo Jia was puzzled and said, "My lord, why do you make such a gesture?"

If Guo Jia didn't mention it, Liu Wei said angrily: "Pang Shiyuan really doesn't know self-love. He is a literati, how can he lead the army to fight in person? It's not a big deal if he can't take down Xiapi. Didn't he lose an arm!"

Guo Jia defended Pang Tong, saying: "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. Although Pang Shiyuan does not practice martial arts, he is proficient in the six arts of a gentleman. His swordsmanship is very good. Although he cannot fight the enemy, he is enough to protect himself. Ordinary soldiers can't do anything to him!"

"Hmph! I'm afraid that he will rush in greedily and fall into the enemy's ambush. Don't you know that it's easy to hide with a clear gun, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow!"

Liu Wei snorted, ignored Guo Jia, and said in a low voice, "I won't deal with him when he comes back!"

……

"My lord, news has come from our spies in Xiapi that Xiapi City has been taken down by Liu Wei!"

In the Jiangdong Army camp, Lu Su reported to Sun Ce.

"what?"

Sun Ce's face turned pale with shock, and he was stunned for a long time before he asked, "Could it be that Liu Ziyan personally led the army to attack Xiapi?"

"No, it was Tan Ma who said that it was Pang Tong, a military advisor under Liu Ziyan's command, who took down Xiapi with only [-] troops!"

"what?"

Sun Ce stood up abruptly, stared at Lu Su and said, "Are you kidding me? Can 10 soldiers take down the Xiapi? I didn't take down the Xiapi with 1 soldiers. He can take [-] soldiers." Take Xiapi?"

"My lord, Pang Tong drained the water of the Si River and the Yi River, and flooded Xiapi City with water, so that Xiapi City can be taken down!"

Lu Su explained.

Sun Ce: "..."

"Report!"

"Houqiu County was captured by the Hebei Army!"

"Report!"

"Siwu County was captured by the Hebei Army!"

Two soldiers rushed in and reported to Qunar.

"what?"

Lu Su stood up, his face pale.

"Hmph! It's just that you won three counties, so it's useful to get down. If you lose it, you lose it. Zijing doesn't have to be like this!"

Sun Ce didn't take it seriously, but he was quite unhappy in his heart.

"My lord, this is not just a problem of the three counties!"

Lu Su pulled Sun Ce to the side of the map, pointed to the three counties of Xiapi, Siwu, and Houqiu on the map, and said, "Look, my lord, these three counties together form a wall, which can block our way to the north." , Liu Ziyan is really treacherous!"

"Oh!"

As soon as Lu Su finished speaking, Sun Ce punched the table, startling Lu Su.

"Well, you Liu Ziyan, you don't allow me to drink soup even if you eat meat, Zijing, go find Gongjin, a mere [-] Hebei troops want to block my way of Sun Bofu, Liu Ziyan is daydreaming!"

Still angry, Sun Ce kicked over the table in front of him.

Lu Su didn't dare to persuade Sun Ce, so he quickly exited Sun Ce's tent, and trotted all the way to find Zhou Yu.

After a while, Zhou Yu and Lu Su came together and entered Sun Ce's camp.

Once inside, the two saw Sun Ce beating the guard who brought him water.

The two knew that Sun Ce was throwing evil fire, and they whipped the soldiers to vent their anger.

Zhou Yu hurried forward to grab Sun Ce, and said, "What is Bo Fu doing!"

Sun Ce said angrily: "This guy is so rude, the tea he brought me is already cold, he bullies me like this, if I don't give him some color, where should I put my face?"

"Okay, just hit it a few times to vent your anger, let him go down!"

Zhou Yu waved his hand and told the soldiers who delivered the tea to go down first. After the soldiers who delivered the tea went down, Zhou Yu asked, "Bo Fu, you came here to let me watch you beating and scolding the soldiers, right?"

Sun Ce curled his lips: "Gongjin, are you asking knowingly, or is it because Zijing didn't tell you the situation?"

"Zijing told me everything, what does my lord want to do?"

Zhou Yu asked back.

"What should I do? Cold salad! I will kill anyone who dares to stop me. If only [-] Hebei troops want to block my way, then my title of little overlord will be in vain!"

Sun Ce raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes, and said angrily.

"No, it's not about the 30 Hebei Army. Liu Ziyan still has more than [-] soldiers in his hands. Now we can't afford to mess with Liu Wei!"

Zhou Yu shook his head, denying Sun Ce's decision.

"Why not? Liu Ziyan is confronting Cao Mengde. How can he have time to deal with us? By the time he kills Cao Cao, we have already wiped out the [-] Hebei army and captured the entire Xuzhou!"

Sun Ce asked.

"Cao Mengde? Cao Mengde is finished, it can't be done. I heard that Cao Mengde has already vomited blood in anger and is lying in bed. All the military and political power has been handed over to his second son Cao Pi. Cao Pi hasn't even fought a few battles. How could it be Liu Wei? opponent!"

Zhou Yu said helplessly.

"Not necessarily. If Cao Pi is really as bad as you said, why didn't Liu Ziyan send troops to attack Xuchang? Why did he stagnate in Guandu?"

"Heh, if my guess is right, Liu Ziyan is waiting, but I don't know what he is waiting for, maybe he is waiting for Cao Mengde's death, or Liu Ziyan wants to take over the territory around Wei State first, and then deal with Cao Cao in the end! "

Zhou Yu guessed.

"Then I just wait like this?"

Sun Ce asked tentatively.

"No, no, my lord must not wait here. You should write a letter to Liu Wei and ask what Liu Wei means?"

Zhou Yu suggested.

"it is good!"

Sun Ce immediately wrote a letter to Liu Wei and sent someone to Liu Wei's camp in Guandu.

After Liu Wei received Sun Ce's letter, he saw in the letter: "My sister-in-law Yan Qinqi, brother-in-law, Brother Yu heard that my brother-in-law led an army to attack Cao Mengde, and specially led an army of [-] to help my brother-in-law restrain Cao's army in Xuzhou. My brother-in-law actually sent troops to capture Xiapi and other counties. I don’t know what my brother-in-law means. If my brother-in-law thinks about relatives, then let Xiapi and other three counties be handed over to Brother Yu. My brother-in-law only needs to lead the army to deal with Cao Jun in Xuchang The main force is enough! I don’t know what my brother-in-law wants, but if my brother-in-law agrees, our two families will still have a good relationship between Qin and Jin. If my brother-in-law insists on stationing troops in Xuzhou, then blame me, Sun Bofu, for not thinking about the benefits of Qin and Jin!”

"Hehe, you dare to threaten me?"

After Liu Wei finished reading the letter, he threw Sun Ce's letter aside, sneered, and said to himself, "It's wishful thinking if you want to reap the benefits of being a fisherman!"

"Zhao Yun and Li Yan, you two will lead 3 troops each to help Pang Tong and the others!"

"Here!"

As soon as Li Yan and Zhao Yun bowed their hands, they were going to help Pang Tong.

Liu Wei added: "If Sun Ce is merciless and dares to use troops against us, tell Pang Tong that there is no need to show mercy, and I will beat his mother hard, so that he will remember it long!"

"Here!"

That night, Li Yan and Zhao Yun led an army of [-] to station in Xuzhou.

When Sun Ce learned that the Hebei army had increased his troops, he became angry from embarrassment. He mobilized all his troops to attack Xiapi, but was defeated by Pang Tong's plan to kill him.
