"Please take a seat."

Zhou Yu pointed to the side.

"Thank you, Great Governor." Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang handed over at the same time.

The rest of the generals shook their heads.

There was nothing else to say, so I returned to my seat and sat down.

"The military situation is urgent, so I won't detour."

"I rashly invited Uncle Huang and Kong Ming to come back this time, in fact, I wanted to ask how many troops are left in Jiangling City?"

"How is the defense in the city?"

Zhou Yu asked.

Zhuge Liang raised his head, looked at Zhou Yu, and replied, "Captain, in this Jiangling City, there should be two or three thousand remnants of the army, but at most four thousand."

"So little?" Zhou Yu frowned and looked at Zhuge Liang, "Kong Ming, is the news conclusive?"

"Naturally sure." Zhuge nodded, "Yide led [-] troops into the city to investigate. Although he was defeated, he also saw with his own eyes that the number of troops deployed in the city should only be about [-] or [-] people."

"Even if there are still some troops that haven't shown up, it won't exceed a thousand."

"It's full of nonsense!" Lü Meng shouted angrily, "Then Cao Ren just brought five thousand troops into the city, which adds up to at least ten thousand people. How come there are only four thousand people in your mouth?"

"Hahaha……"

Zhuge Liang laughed and shook his head slowly.

"What are you laughing at!" Lu Meng shouted angrily.

"General Lu doesn't know that the five thousand soldiers and horses that Cao Ren brought are just disguised by the militia in the city, and they have no combat power at all. With all due respect, with only five hundred people rushing into the formation, the five thousand can easily be taken out. The troops and horses are defeated." Zhuge Liang replied with a smile.

"How did you know?" Lu Meng asked back.

"When our army retreated, I met with Cao Ren's army. Although the two armies were far apart, I went to check their army formation, a large army of [-] people, but only after marching seven or eight miles, all legs and feet became weak. , to help each other, such an army, isn't it a turkey and a dog?"

After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, Zhou Yu's eyes lit up.

"Come on, let the camp guard come."

Soon.

At that time, several generals who were in charge of guarding the camp walked in.

Seeing that all the generals in the tent were there, I suddenly became a little nervous.

"Let me ask you, how was Cao Ren's troops?" Zhou Yu asked.

"Reporting to the Governor, when Cao Ren's army came, his subordinates looked around and looked tired. If it wasn't for Cao Ren's strict shouting, many people would have been sitting on the ground." The general replied. .

"Go down."

Zhou Yu has led the army for many years and has a deep knowledge of the art of war, so he naturally knows what is going on.

Only the untrained and weak people will do this.

"I didn't expect that Cao Ren would actually use a bunch of militiamen to deceive me."

Zhou Yu snorted coldly, but at the same time he was relieved.

That being the case, it seems that there are at most [-] soldiers and horses in the city.

Although the number of those militiamen is large, five thousand people can display the strength of five hundred elites at most, which is not worth mentioning at all.

Full reckoning.

In Jiangling City, there are still [-] people left.

In his hands, there are currently more than [-] people.

A full six times that of Gangneung City.

It is enough to take down Gangneung.

After thinking about it, Zhou Yu immediately got up and looked at Liu Bei: "If that's the case, then you must take Jiangling in one go."

"Uncle Liu!"

He shouted, and Liu Bei groaned in his heart, knowing that Zhou Yu was going to use the soldiers and horses in his hands, but he couldn't refuse at all, so he got up immediately, "What's the matter?"

"Also ask Uncle Huang to lead his troops to block Wei Yan's reinforcements."

"After I take Jiangling, I can call the shots and allow Uncle Huang to take Wuling and Lingling."

Zhou Yu knew that he would not give Liu Bei any favors.

It is estimated that Liu Bei will not work hard.

Wuling and Lingling counties, although their locations are a little off, they are two big counties anyway. He doesn't believe that Liu Bei is not moved.

As for the other two counties in the south of Jingzhou, Changsha and Guiyang counties, Zhou Yu naturally planned to pick them up himself.

Once these two counties are taken, Jiangdong will be joined together, and then Jiangling and Xiangyang, which will be taken in the future, will be taken.

Then you can either attack Cao Cao from the north, or attack Xichuan from the west, so as to gain the world!

Zhou Yu can think of this, and Liu Bei can also think of it.

He didn't want to agree.

He also wanted Changsha and Guiyang counties.

Even if there is only one Xiangyang, he is willing.

But Liu Bei also knew that Zhou Yu would definitely not agree, and when he was hesitating in his heart, Zhuge Liang, who was beside him, suddenly laughed.

He cupped his hands and said, "Then I would like to thank the Governor General."

"it is good!"

Zhou Yu nodded, "I hope this time, Uncle Huang and Kong Ming can block Wei Yan, don't let me down."

"' 々 This is nature."

Zhuge Liang surrendered again.

"Then ask Uncle Huang and Kong Ming to hurry up and mobilize the army," Zhou Yu said.

"If that's the case, then I'll take my leave." Liu Bei handed over.

"Farewell."

Zhuge Liang also bowed his hands and left with Liu Bei.

"Captain, do you really want to trust Liu Bei?" Lu Meng asked after the two left.

"Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang are not stupid, as long as they still want to unite with Jiang Dong, they will definitely not dare to do stupid things again." Zhou Yu said, beckoning, "Okay, it's not too late, quickly follow my previous instructions, and immediately Siege!"

"promise!"

There were [-] troops in Jiangdong, only [-] soldiers and horses were left to guard the camp, and the rest of the soldiers and horses were all pulled out of the camp.

Go to Gangneung City.

Not long after Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang left the camp, seeing this scene, Liu Bei frowned and said, "Kong Ming, it seems that Zhou Yu is determined to take Jiangling this time."

Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice, "Yes, Zhou Yu has raised his entire army, but even his own camp has only [-] guards. If there are another [-] Cao's troops in Jiangling City and they go out of the city and burn Zhou Yu's camp, then Zhou Yu's three I am afraid that the large army of Wan will be defeated in an instant."

"It's a pity that in Jiangling City, even five hundred people can no longer be dispatched."

"But this is also Zhou Yu's cleverness. If you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent person."

"It's the only way to boost the morale of the entire army and win Jiangling City."

Zhuge Liang couldn't even sigh, Zhou Yu's ruthlessness was indeed ruthless.

Doing so is risky, but also very rewarding.

"What if Cao Jun could send such a force? Wouldn't it be possible to change the situation in an instant?" Liu Bei (Nuo Li's) was surprised.

He did not agree with Zhou Yu's approach.

Too risky.

"Hehe, lord, Cao Jun is already a drop in the bucket, where can he send people?" Zhuge Liang said, suddenly stunned, and then he couldn't help but feel a chill on his back, and the feather fan in his hand stopped, his face full of astonishment.

"Master, what's wrong?" Liu Bei was also surprised and asked quickly.

"No, my lord, Zhou Yu and you have always forgotten one person. This person has never been seen since we attacked Jiangling!" Zhuge Liang reminded.

Liu Bei also reacted instantly and stared at Zhuge Liang with wide eyes: "Prefect of Jiangxia, Gan Ning!"

As soon as they finished speaking, the faces of the two became extremely ugly.

"Gan Ning is not in Jiangling, so where is he?" Liu Bei asked anxiously.

"Gan Ning is called the Jinfan Thief. He is very good at water warfare. If he is not in Jiangling, he can only be in one place..."

Zhuge Liang said, raised his head and glanced at Liu Bei, and said, "Outside Jiangling City, the Yangtze River waterway!"

"Gan Ning can attack our warships in the river, and he can also land at the Jiangling Ferry at any time. Such a strange army is too much of a threat."

"My lord, we need to quickly inform Zhou Yu of this news."

Liu Bei nodded.

The two had no choice but to take their troops and go back to find Zhou Yu.

Only two people walked halfway, and the Jiangdong camp in the distance ignited a raging fire, and the fire burned into the sky, even if it was far away! .

Chapter 172

Under the city of Jiangling.

The Jiangdong army had just arrived and was preparing to attack the city, and even Zhou Yu was ready to go to the battlefield in person.

But right now.

A swift horse came from behind with a face full of embarrassment, and knelt down in front of Zhou Yu.

"Captain, it's not good, our army camp was set on fire by Cao General Gan Ning. Now, with the help of the wind, the fire stretches for hundreds of meters, and it is about to burn to the central army camp."
