Chapter 545: Massacre Another City!
Gu Rubing smiled when he heard this.
"Third brother, we had a five-day agreement at that time. The sneak attack in the middle was just a small trick at most. It didn't hurt Cao Cao, but you have to really kill Cao Ren and Cao Zhang. One is his son, and the other is He is one of his clan members, why won’t Cao Cao fight with us?”
Zhuge Liang was on the side and nodded with a smile.
"We don't have much time to prepare before the war. Although the number of famous generals in the Quartet Alliance is not as good as ours, their overall strength is stronger than ours. General Zhang is not curious, why can we hold on for so long?"
Zhang Fei looked at Zhuge Liang doubtfully and asked curiously: "Isn't it because of the military advisor's eight-door golden lock formation?"
"Haha, if the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation is so useful, why do we still need so many people? Wouldn't it be great to just rush into Cao Jun's camp and destroy them?"
Zhuge smiled, and then the smile on his face gradually faded.
"The real reason is that each of the four coalition forces has their own thoughts. Sun Jian appears to obey Cao Cao, but it is a fierce tiger that Cao Cao has to guard against. Moreover, Sun Jian does not intend to do anything, he is just watching from the sidelines. Although I don’t know why, I can feel that he has his own purpose, which is to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.”
"As for Cao Cao, he doesn't really want to settle us all in Nanjun. He just wants to drive us out of Jingzhou. Cao Cao doesn't have such a big appetite and wants to swallow us whole."
Gu Rubing nodded. This was how he analyzed it at the beginning.
The four coalition forces each have their own thoughts, and no one is willing to use their full strength. This is also an opportunity for Gu Rubing. As long as Zhao Yun's injury can be fully recovered, Nanjun will be completely in his hands.
"Once we kill Cao Cao's son and clan members, Cao Cao will abandon everything and attack us fiercely. At the same time, he will also order Sun Jian to use all his strength to face the four-party coalition and launch a crazy attack. It won't take long for the city walls to collapse. At this time, we will no longer be able to hold on and have no choice but to withdraw from the battlefield in Jingzhou. "
Zhuge Liang analyzed everything clearly and logically. Zhang Fei also understood what Gu Rubing and Zhuge Liang meant. He smiled awkwardly and said nothing more.
After Zhuge Liang said this, he looked at the map.
"Lord, on the battlefield in the rear, Cao Cao has sent too many people. We need to put some pressure on Cao Cao from the front, otherwise, the pressure on the rear will be too great."
Gu Rubing thought so too.
Soon, the city gate opened, and Zhang Ren and Wei Yan led 50,000 cavalry and rushed directly into Cao Cao's camp.
Cao Cao sent Xu Chu, Huang Gai and Cheng Pu to fight against the two.
This is already the last lineup that can be produced by the four-party coalition.
As soon as the two sides fought, an arrow shot at Huang Gai.
Huang Gai waved his whips and looked at the person who was shooting the arrow, it was Tai Shi Ci.
"Boy, I'm telling you to hide behind and shoot cold arrows. It's not a manly thing to do. Do you dare to come out and fight me for 300 rounds?"
Taishi Ci sneered, opened the city gate, and rushed towards Huang Gai.
Wei Yan faced Xu Chu. As soon as they met, Wei Yan knew that he was definitely no match for Xu Chu.
My White Tiger Sun-Eating Sword Technique was completely ignored in front of Xu Chu, and Xu Chu could easily resist it.
"Take my move and try it!"
Wei Yan was so angry when he was looked down upon by Xu Chu that he directly used the last move of White Tiger to Devour the Sun, and his attack power increased by 600% in an instant.
Xu Chu was still resisting with ease.
But after feeling Wei Yan's move, Xu Chu finally looked at Wei Yan.
As Xu Chu became serious, Wei Yan's expression suddenly changed.
With the bonus of the characteristic Tiger Chi, Xu Chu became more and more brave as he fought, and the chaotic cloak sword technique he used also made Wei Yan retreat continuously.
Half an hour later, Xu Chu finally reached the final state of Tiger Chi, with all attributes increased by 400%, and Wei Yan could not resist it at all.
In just three rounds, a wound appeared on Wei Yan's body, and even his own armor could not block Xu Chu's sword.
Until he was no longer his opponent, Wei Yan turned around and left without thinking.
Upon seeing this, Gu Rubing quickly ordered his troops to retreat.
Now that Gu Rubing has sent out most of his famous generals, none of the remaining famous generals are really any match for Xu Chu. If Ma Chao or Huang Zhong were here, maybe it would be okay.
"Okay, lord, after this one time, we have achieved the effect. This Cao Cao is a little too relaxed. It's time to make him tense up."
Zhuge Liang didn't care about Wei Yan's failure.
Gu Rubing nodded.
Cao Cao returned to the camp and called Sun Jian and the others over directly.
"Three of you, we have sent too many people to the rear battlefield, and the camp is a bit empty. Liu Bei made a casual surprise attack and asked us to send out all the famous generals in our hands. Sun Zhoumu, don't you have Gu clan in your hands? ? Haven’t they already gone to support? Why hasn’t it ended yet?
"Prime Minister, I will urge you now and ask Zhou Yu to come back to strengthen the strength of our camp."
Sun Jian knew that he could no longer delay. Cao Cao obviously didn't have much patience anymore.
In just one day, the order reached Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu frowned instantly when he heard that he was leaving.
Now the only person who can stop Miao Moqing here is herself. Once she leaves, Miao Moqing will not really take action and turn these three counties into dead cities.
But it was difficult to disobey Sun Jian's orders.
Looking at Gan Ning who was still injured, Zhou Yu immediately had an idea.
"Xingba, my lord needs help, please go back and provide support. You are injured now and you can't be of much help."
"Grand Governor, why can't I help? I didn't..."
"I said if you can't help, you can't help. Go back quickly."
Zhou Yu's face didn't look good at this time either.
Gan Ning had a pretty good relationship with Zhou Yu in private, and he naturally knew that Zhou Yu was really a little angry now, so he didn't dare to say anything and turned around and left Huarong.
"General Zhou, according to the wishes of the lord, is already urging me to speed up. Judging from the current situation, it is impossible for you to capture Huarong. It is better to give up and hand Huarong to me. I promise to take half a day to capture Huarong. "Xia Huarong."
Take Huarong? You have slaughtered Huarong.
Zhou Yu frowned and said in a deep voice: "The situation on the front line is not that serious. Besides, hasn't Gan Ning gone back? Why are you anxious? If the clan leader is anxious, you can go back and tell the lord, leave this to me, you go Support the front line.”
Miao Moqing looked at Zhou Yu, but didn't say anything, but returned to her position.
Early the next morning.
Zhou Yu once again led the crowd to besiege Huarong.
This was also the last day Miao Moqing gave herself.
If I still can't take Huarong, then the whole Huarong will really become a dead city.
This time Zhou Yu also had to play because Gan Ning was missing.
Zhou Yu went directly to Huang Zhong.
Just when Huang Zhong was curious, although Zhou Yu was also a famous general, his combat effectiveness was still much weaker than that of real generals like them. Even if he really wanted to go on the field, he should go to Xu Rong for comparison. You are so weak, how could you find yourself?
Zhou Yu swung his sword and struck Huang Zhong's red blood knife.
After Huang Zhong blocked it, just when he was about to continue his attack, Zhou Yu suddenly whispered: "There is no one at the south gate, you should leave quickly."
"What? Are you giving in to us? Do you think we need you to give in?"
Huang Zhong was very disdainful of Zhou Yu's words.
"Do you think I want to let you go? If it weren't for the people of Huarong, do you think I would let you go?"
Zhou Yu didn't want to say too much to Huang Zhong. After all, he was surrounded by people from Cao Jun's camp. Once someone heard the conversation between the two of them and told Cao Cao, he would definitely be in trouble.
"People? What do you mean?"
"It's not interesting. Only if you leave will the people be fine. If you don't leave, it will be the people who will suffer. You decide for yourself. You still have one day."
After saying that, Zhou Yu directly called for gold and retreated his troops.
After everyone returned to the camp, Miao Moqing walked forward directly.
"General Zhou, you have failed again this time. Is it time for me to take action?"
"Wait a moment."
Zhou Yu immediately stopped Miao Moqing.
"Don't General Zhou be honest?"
"Of course not, but I remember that our agreement was for two days. Isn't there still half a day left? So what if we wait for half a day?"
Miao Moqing looked at Zhou Yu, hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "I hope the Governor will remember what he said."
Zhou Yu looked at Huarong City in the distance and didn't know what to do for a moment. If Huang Zhong didn't compromise, would he really want Miao Moqing to take action?
Huang Zhong returned to the city and told everyone what Zhou Yu said to him.
"Retreat? Where are we going to retreat to? The Lord's order to us is to hold on for four days. It's only the third day now. Do we really want to leave?"
Zhang Liao was obviously very resistant to retreat.
Xu Rong on the side thought about Dangyang's situation and his expression was not very good.
"Otherwise we withdraw and go to Zhijiang, which is only one day away. There shouldn't be any problem, right?"
Hearing that these words came from Xu Rong's mouth, Zhang Liao looked at Xu Rong with confusion.
Zhang He on the side didn't say a word. He was also hesitating whether to retreat or not.
Huang Zhong was silent for a long time.
"General Xu, if you are afraid, just leave by yourself, don't take us with you!"
Zhang Liao looked at Xu Rong with an unhappy expression.
"Am I a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? Since Zhou Yu took the risk to tell us secretly on the battlefield, there must be a reason, and there is something unspeakable."
"The unspeakable secret of fart is that it is the enemy. What if it is the enemy's plan?"
Huang Zhong frowned after listening to the two people's words.
"Okay, stop arguing. Let's retreat, but we won't go to Zhijiang. We will guard the only way to Zhijiang. Anyway, there is still one day. Isn't everything the same?"
Several people nodded after hearing this.
Soon, Huang Zhong organized an army and quietly evacuated Huarong late at night.
At dawn, Zhou Yu looked at Hua Rong nervously.
When he discovered that there was no longer a martyred military flag on the city wall, he breathed a sigh of relief.
When Zhou Yu was about to send people into the city, the scene that followed immediately made Zhou Yu blush.
A stream of green gas slowly surrounded the entire Huarong.
Zhou Yu is very familiar with this scene.
This is the method of the Gu clan.
Zhou Yu quickly found Miao Moqing.
"Clan leader, what are you doing? Huang Zhong and the others have left Huarong. Now Huarong is ours. Are you still going to massacre the city?"
"Otherwise? General Zhou, what are you talking about?"
Miao Moqing sneered and looked at Zhou Yu, whose eyes were red in front of her.
"Have you forgotten our agreement when we got the clan leader? In two days, I captured Huarong. Now Huarong is ours, and you don't need to take action anymore."
"General Zhou, I'm afraid you have forgotten. My lord ordered me to deal with the three cities. I have carried out our agreement. I did not take action for two days. Is there a problem now on the third day? I am just obeying my lord. Just an order.”
It was Sun Jian's order again.
Zhou Yu is now doubting whether following Sun Jian is the right choice.
Today, Sun Jian and the entire Yangzhou seem to have become something he does not recognize.
"Then, Chief Patriarch, are you going to continue and turn all cities into hell? A hell without a single living person?"
"Then I don't care. I'm just following the lord's orders. If you are not satisfied, you can go directly to the lord and tell him."
"I……"
Zhou Yu even wanted to curse at this time, but when he thought of Miao Moqing's weird methods, he finally endured it.
The sound of screams sounded again in Huarong City.
In order not to listen, Zhou Yu hid in the tent and looked at the map.
After a long time, there was finally no movement outside. Zhou Yu clenched his fists and looked at Zhijiang next. He was unwilling to accept that everyone died like this.
Even Zhou Yu is wondering, what's the point of being here now? Just one Miao Moqing is enough.
Zhou Yu has already made plans to leave here and return to the front line.
Not far away from Huarong City, Huang Zhong and the others also heard screams in the city.
Huang Zhong's expression suddenly changed when he saw that Huarong City was surrounded by green poisonous gas.
"Zhou Yu, son, actually used such means to massacre the city."
Huang Zhong clenched his fists, veins popped out, and he released a faint murderous aura. The soldiers around Huang Zhong felt that the temperature dropped a bit.
"It seems that this is what Zhou Yu is talking about. Doesn't Zhou Yu not want us to die?"
"How is this possible?"
Zhang Liao smiled helplessly at Xu Rong's words. He didn't think Zhou Yu had such good intentions.
"Forget it, now is not the time to talk about this. Everyone, get ready. I'm afraid they will arrive here soon."
Everyone nodded immediately.
However, this time, Huang Zhong guessed wrong.
Because there was already a problem in Zhou Yu’s camp.
"The matters here are left to the clan leader. It's time for me to return to the front line."
Zhou Yu felt extremely disappointed at this time. He was already a little disappointed with Sun Jian's decision. At this time, he couldn't show any fighting spirit.
"You want to leave?"
Cao Ren looked at Zhou Yu with a puzzled look. After all, Zhou Yu was also a famous general, so just leaving like this was a big loss for them.
