Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 446 Contradictory Zhou Yu

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu hesitated a little. Now that the morale of the army is so high, if he raises such an objection, it will inevitably be suspected of pouring cold water, and it will be more likely to cause displeasure to the king, and it will be considered as self-defeating.

But after much thought, Zhou Yu still made a decision.

After all, among the 1000 or more than [-] cavalrymen who were the main charge in the Wangzheng plan, [-] of them were the most valuable combat power of the Hefei defenders.

When the camp became quiet, Zhou Yu stood up suddenly, and said to Wang Zheng, "Wang Zhoumu, I have something unclear."

As soon as he opened his mouth, the turbulent crowd in the tent stopped immediately, and the voices of the people became even quieter. Wang Zheng saw it in his eyes, and his heart shuddered.

Zhou Lang is worthy of being Zhou Lang, and his current position is only a mere district and county magistrate, but he already has such prestige?

Thinking this way in his heart, Wang Zheng didn't show his face, instead he smiled and looked sideways at Zhou Yu, and said: "If Zhou County Prime Minister has any doubts, it's okay to speak up."

"In the plan, the two cavalry troops march forward side by side and can meet at the gate of Sun Ce's barracks."

Zhou Yu said: "But if Sun Ce's army sees the opportunity quickly, based on the central army and separates our army from the left and right, and then focuses on attacking any of the cavalry troops with all its strength, wouldn't there be a danger of defeating each of them?"

"Haha." Wang Zheng clapped his hands violently when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "The county magistrate is a man who knows how to fight, and this is indeed a hidden danger in this plan, but there is a saying in the art of war: 'Make a decision before moving, and then fight. Lazy, since the siege of the city, the cavalry of your army has been useless, just like the blade of a new knife, our heavenly army is also eager to fight, ready to go, the spirit of this army is strong, and it can be called harmony."

"Kuang Sun Ce's army has been besieging the city for a long time. Seeing that our side has always stood firm, he must have thought that we dare not go out of the city to fight. To strike tonight is not only a surprise attack, but also to take advantage of the arrogant soldiers' negligence. It can be called the right time."

"Hefei is in our hands. We have already got the right location, and now we have the right time, the harmony of people, and all three. Wouldn't it be a pity if we missed it?"

Wang Zheng smiled and said: "There is some risk, but when two armies are fighting, there is never one side that is [-]% sure. If you give up food because of choking, in a few days, the news that the general will lead the army into the city will spread like wildfire. We will definitely strengthen our vigilance, and then this trick will no longer work.”

Zhou Yu still shook his head, disapproving: "Now the Xuzhou Army with Zhou Mu in the city has only 1000 men and horses. There are more than [-] soldiers, and they are cavalry. How could the one who took the risk be the Zhou Mu? How much risk is it?"

"It's really unwise to take such a big risk, Wang Zhoumu, I think it's better to have a long-term plan on this matter."

Hearing that Zhou Yu was still insisting on his own opinion, Wang Zheng couldn't help raising his sword eyebrows, and looked at Zhou Yu suddenly became cold.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu was not a soft persimmon like He Hong, but he didn't take this kind of trick at all. Not only did he not dodge or dodge, but he also raised his eyebrows and looked straight at him without any fear.

Zhou Yu's reaction was beyond Wang Zheng's surprise, and he was taken aback for a while.

You must know that since he started the incident, he has won every battle, conquered every attack, and even defeated a powerful enemy in a row. How great the prestige he has established, coupled with the loyalty lock given by the system, when Wang Zheng has not made a decision, the soldiers under his command Naturally, everyone expresses their own opinions and disputes endlessly, but once the king's government is finalized, it is absolutely uncompromising, and Gan Gang is arbitrary!

Even some people who are not kings and ministers with him are often persuaded or completely suppressed under the high charm of Wang Zheng
Like today, some people persisted in disagreeing with Wang Zheng, and even contradicted him face to face. Speaking of which, Wang Zheng hadn't seen each other for some time.

Is it because high charisma is useless against a character like Zhou Yu, or is it because my charisma is not high enough?
No matter what, Zhou Yu's attitude completely dispelled other thoughts and hesitation in his heart!

Because it is for the sake of face, for the sake of his family's prestige, Wang Zheng has to insist on seeing to the end!
"Prime Minister Zhou, when the two armies meet, the brave will win. You don't have to be too cautious, so as to delay the opportunity of the battle."

Wang Zheng's expression became calm again, and he said softly: "However, what Zhou Xiancheng said can also be referred to. This matter should be done sooner rather than later. It is necessary to have an elite soldier in charge, and the general will be in charge, so as to ensure nothing goes wrong!"

"The Heavenly Punishment Battalion under my general's command is full of experienced warriors, and most of them are cavalry. How about this, I will personally lead the Tianzhu Battalion to lead the charge of the left side tonight."

In fact, there is a more suitable method. When Wang Zheng passed by Shouchun, Yuan Shu had arranged for a courier to bring an edict, stating that he would be in charge of all the military and horse power in the frontline cities temporarily. Wang Zheng could use this to force Zhou Yu to obey his orders.

It's just that Wang Zheng also agrees with Zhou Yu's view in his heart, which is not unreasonable. In this case, he doesn't want to use Yuan Shu's edict to suppress Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu was startled when he heard that Wang Zheng wanted to go out in person, and just about to speak, he saw that He Hong, who had been silent for a long time, had already yelled "ah", and immediately got up and said anxiously: "This matter must not be done! "

"Wang Zhoumu is a man of gold, how can he directly lead the troops to charge into the battle? If there is a slight mistake, the consequences will be disastrous!"

He Hong actually didn't care about Wang Zheng, he was afraid of Wang Zheng's unexpected consequences.

The current Heavenly Army in Hefei City only has 2000 troops, so naturally there will be no troubles, but there are still 3000 troops from Huang Zhong in Linhu, and even Wu Sheng's [-] Xuzhou Army is on the way here.
If something happens to Wang Zheng, who knows what this group of arrogant soldiers will do?
If he only hated Sun Ce, then he would be happy to hear it, but what if he blamed Hefei and even the Yangzhou Army?

after all
The predecessor of the Xuzhou Army was the Yellow Turban bandits!
Zhou Yu also said in a deep voice at this time: "Wang Zhoumu is the commander-in-chief of the three armies. He should strategize and issue orders. Don't put yourself in danger and show off your courage."

Why have you been blatantly contradicting me?
Finally, Wang Zheng's face changed a little, and a mocking smile appeared on his face: "What Zhou Xiancheng said, does it mean that he is going to charge himself, so he is brave and foolish?"

"Don't dare to go down."

Zhou Yu raised his head and said, "Although Yu is a lowly official, she is now fighting side by side with the soldiers of the two armies. There are some things I have to say. It is absolutely inappropriate for Wang Zhoumu to go into battle in person. It is better to leave this matter to a wise and brave general who is prepared. "

"Zhou Yu!"

Wang Zheng seemed completely annoyed. Not only did he call Zhou Yu by his name, but he stared at him coldly, and said solemnly, "What do you mean by saying that this general has no wisdom or courage?"

This stern shout was like Jiao Lei rolling past, the sound shook the roof tiles, and the dust fell from the beams that shook directly. It even made the ears of the people beside him, including He Hong, ring with thunder, their hearts beat faster, and everyone was terrified.

And the generals led by Wang Xiong in the Tianjun didn't even dare to take a breath. You looked at me and I looked at you, and they all saw the same thought in the eyes of each other.

The general is really angry this time!

But Zhou Yu was still unmoved, just clasped his fists neither humble nor overbearing and said: "Wang Zhoumu's status is so valuable, how dare Yu be rude, Wang Zhoumu came to help Yuan Gong, this is an act of benevolence and righteousness, only great wisdom can be benevolent, and great courage can be righteous , Wangzhou Mu is naturally a hero with both wisdom and courage, and this is the consensus of the world."

"It's just that although Yu is young, he knows how to be a general. He has both fighting generals and strategic generals. Now that Zhou Mu is the commander of the three armies, he has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. It is more appropriate to sit in command rather than personally charge. "

After finishing speaking, he took half a step back slightly, leaned over and lowered his head, and said word by word: "I hope Zhou Mu will think twice."

Wang Zheng was still looking at Zhou Yu coldly at this time, but the anger in his heart had actually subsided. According to common sense, Zhou Yu's words were indeed reasonable, but he didn't know that he and the Tianjun were not members of other generals and armies. relationship, and under the influence of the system, the effect of Wang Zheng taking the lead is far from being comparable to that of ordinary brave generals charging.

But at this time, Wang Zheng was more concerned about another point.

His stern shout just now not only used his high charm, but also lit up his talent of persuasion. Zhou Yu in front of him was the first to bear the brunt, and it seemed that it had no effect at all?

This is a bit of an exaggeration.
You must know that not only Pan Zhang, Huang Zhong and others, but also Sun Ce, who was in such a short distance, was put into a state of trance by Wang Zheng's talent + charm, although it was only for a moment.

Zhou Gongjin, you are really extraordinary!

With a deep sigh in his heart, after a long while, Wang Zheng breathed out lightly, nodded to Zhou Yu in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "The suggestion of Zhou Xiancheng is not unreasonable."

"However, since the general has said this in front of the generals, there is no reason to withdraw the general order."

Seeing that Zhou Yu and He Hong on the side were still waiting to persuade, Wang Zheng frowned, flicked his sleeves, and cut off his voice in a deep voice: "There is no need to say more about this matter. Next, we should discuss the candidates for the general on the right." '

"That's it."

Zhou Yu suddenly clasped his hands again and said, "Zhou Mu, Yu begs to be the leader of the right side!"

"You?" Wang Zheng was startled when he heard the words, and hesitantly said: "The Prime Minister of Zhou County is a civil servant."

Night raids are indeed prone to accidents, even if the relationship between Zhou Yu and Sun Ce is extraordinary, but in the midst of chaos, would Sun Ce's subordinates pay special attention not to accidentally injure Zhou Yu?
Moreover, Wang Zheng has no idea about Zhou Yu's martial arts skills and whether he can protect himself.

He glanced at He Hong, and was about to ask him to speak out on his behalf, but Zhou Yu said loudly, "This battle is to solve the siege of Hefei. As the commander of the friendly army, Wang Zhoumu takes the lead. Yu is an official in Hefei, so he should not be afraid of swords and guns."

"Okay." Seeing that He Hong didn't stop him, and Wang Zheng didn't want to continue arguing with Zhou Yu, since he chose it himself, he nodded and said, "That's it, Zhou Xiancheng, let's join forces to attack the enemy tonight!"

"It's not too late, let's hurry up and get ready, the general will dispatch another [-] cavalry from the Celestial Army to you."

Looking around at the crowd again, he said in a deep voice: "The rest of the princes, except those who defended the city directly, the rest will join He Gong in the formation. This battle only needs to be successful, not to fail!"

"Here!"

Before nightfall, the army was fully prepared. As a county, even Hefei, which is of great strategic significance, actually does not have many real cavalry. Many of the so-called [-] cavalry are proficient in riding skills, but have never fought After the battlefield, the experience and combat power are actually open to question.

Knowing this well, Zhou Yu was very worried, but when he came to the camp and saw the 700 horsemen standing in front of the camp, no, it was another [-] strange cavalry, he was stunned.

This is naturally the cavalry of the heavenly army arranged by Wang Zheng to come to the right, or more accurately, it is the second-tier light cavalry.

In the last moment before Zhou Yu came, this group of strong soldiers actually scattered around, or whispered to each other, wandering around, most of them had lazy expressions on their faces, it seemed that in their eyes, the moment of assembly before the war was like Holiday outings are as easy as can be.

But the next moment, when Wang Xiong saw Zhou Yu's figure, his expression straightened, and he waved the flag in his hand violently.
Almost instantly, horses from all directions rode straight to gather behind Wang Xiong, and all of them reined in their horses and stood still in a short period of time, forming a neat formation.

This made Zhou Yu, who witnessed the process with his own eyes, and several Hefei generals behind him, all dumbfounded.

Have they ever seen such cavalry?

It is not difficult to rein in the horses and form a formation. More than 400 horses are not many, but the moment a flag is waved, these two things can be done at the same time in a short time. What does this mean?
A word popped out of Zhou Yu's mind immediately.

That is the highest evaluation of a general's ability to command and dispatch, and it is also the greatest compliment to an army's military discipline and cohesion.
Like an arm and a finger!
Zhou Yu is more aware of what it means for a general to have an army, even cavalry!
Concentrating on the immobile phalanx of the Celestial Army in front of him, and then at the Hefei cavalry who hadn't formed their formation yet, Zhou Yu felt ashamed for a while.

A Yangzhou army that has been trained by him for half a year, a regular Han army, next to a yellow turban bandit, it looks like a patchwork army of mobs
As for Wang Zheng's six hundred cavalry, if they are all of this quality.
At this moment Zhou Yu suddenly understood why in Wang Zheng's previous plan, he had to divide the left and right teams to attack together, and let the pawns all hold the battle in the distant city.
This son has absolute confidence in the army under his command!

He firmly believes that Xuzhou's cavalry alone, raiding at night, is enough to step into the joint battalion!
Just as Zhou Yu was in a state of confusion, a voice suddenly came from the front: "Zhou County Chancellor?"

Ok?
As soon as Zhou Yu raised his head, he saw that the Xuzhou general named Wang Xiong in front of him showed a hint of anxiety on the horse. He looked around again and found that all the soldiers had looked over at this time, and suddenly woke up.

Oops, why did I lose my mind at this moment!

The soldiers on both sides have assembled now, and now they are all waiting for the general to say a few words to mobilize before the battle!
It doesn't matter what you say is bad, but if you think about it like this and don't say a word, won't it make the soldiers guess wildly?This is a taboo for leaders.

Thanks to Zhou Yu's quick reaction, he immediately cleared his throat, coughed twice, pretending that he was about to speak just now, and immediately raised his voice, looked around the crowd, and said with emotion: "We are soldiers, living on the state's salary, and following the expectations of relatives and friends. It is the responsibility of defending the family and the country!"

"Now that the enemy is at hand and soldiers are approaching the city, our weapons are being sharpened for today!"

"Going out of the city to fight tonight, you must fight the enemy bravely, you will not be able to triumph, and if you don't break the enemy camp, you will never return it!"

Zhou Yu wanted to say a few more bold words, but suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and his throat seemed to be choked up, and he couldn't continue.

He has imagined countless times that one day in the future, he will command thousands of troops, squat across the battlefield, and return with countless enemy heads in exchange for the greatest glory and wealth for the Han family, military merit!

But what Zhou Yu never imagined was that the first field battle in which his family really took the initiative to lead the army. The so-called enemy turned out to be a part of Sun Ce!
At this time, Wang Xiong on the opposite side looked at the silent Zhou Yu, frowned, but suddenly shouted: "Kill the thief and defeat the enemy for the general, and die without regret!"

As soon as he shouted, the four hundred heavenly troops behind him immediately shouted: "Kill the enemy and kill the general for the general, and you will die with no regrets!"

Although the Hefei army on the side was half a beat behind, they also followed closely: "Kill thieves and defeat the enemy for the general, and die without regret!"

More than 700 voices yelled together, and there was no one to direct them, so it was a mess, but such yells kept coming and going, but it also made people's blood boil.

It's just that the faces of the Hefei officers behind Zhou Yu turned gloomy.

Those soldiers didn't understand what was wrong with these words, but they immediately heard it. Who else could that general be?Naturally, it is kingship.

And a group of Yangzhou soldiers, Hefei soldiers, shouted to kill thieves and defeat enemies for Wang Zheng?
It just doesn't make sense!
