The Three Kingdoms become stronger when they get treasures

Chapter 174 Sun Quan can't bear it

When the Jiangling navy rushed to the battlefield, the Jiangdong navy retreated, rearranged their formation, and prepared to make a decision depending on the situation. Afterwards, Su Fei also brought [-] Jiangxia navy to rush over, and the morale of the Jingzhou army was greatly boosted.

Zhou Yu said to Sun Quan: "My lord, I'm afraid our plan will fail. Cao Jun's navy has been defeated, and we can't break through the enemy's obstruction. I even have a premonition that something will happen to Cao Ren's attack on Jiangxia City. It's better to retreat and wait. Let’s find out more clearly, I’m afraid there will be a change.”

Sun Quan still couldn't believe it, Gan Ning had already brought out Jiangxia's navy, even that Su Fei appeared here, how many soldiers are left in Jiangxia City?
"Gong Jin, is this impossible? Then Cao Ren and Li Dian led [-] troops to attack a nearly empty city in Jiangxia and still couldn't defeat it? Isn't Cao's army known as the most elite infantry?"

Zhou Yu also felt a little emotional. It should be like this, but Zhang Wu could come up with this method of chaining ships to block the Jiangdong navy. Who knows what method he could come up with to deal with Cao Ren?Besides, Cao Jun is just cooperating with his side to take Jiangxia. Who knows if they will attack the city desperately?
This Zhang Wu is really full of tricks. When he attacked Jiangxia last time, he came up with a new type of catapult and poisonous smoke, which caused the Jiangdong Army to be defeated. Now he has come up with this iron chain ship. What else can he come up with? How many tricks come?
Zhou Yu also thought of the two poems that were very popular in Jiangdong recently. It is said that they were also written by Zhang Wu, especially the line "I still think of Xiang Yu, but I refuse to cross Jiangdong", which resonated with many Jiangdong children.There are also rumors that Zhang Wu once singled out Cao Cao's six generals, and now many Jiangdong people secretly admire Zhang Wu very much.

Unexpectedly, a bandit who gathered a crowd to become a bandit at the beginning has grown to such an extent. Not only is he capable of both civil and military skills, he is quite strategic, and he also has a large number of civil servants, advisers, and elite soldiers.Pang Tong and Xu Shu, the two major military advisers under him, are not weaker than himself in terms of talent. Gan Ning and Huang Zhong are both powerful generals in the world, and they have the support of most of the big families in Jingzhou.

Zhou Yu felt that as long as Zhang Wu was there, Jiangdong would no longer be able to capture Jingzhou. The current Jingzhou is no longer the Jingzhou in Liu Biao's time.

"My lord, since Zhang Wu was able to defeat Cao Cao and blocked our army with this iron chain and chain of boats, I'm afraid he already had a countermeasure against Jiang Xia, otherwise it would be impossible for the three major naval forces in Jingzhou to gather here. Although Cao's army was defeated, It's only a loss of some sailors, there are still more than [-] troops, and the outcome is still unknown, so it's better to retreat, and it won't be too late to come back after we figure out a way to break the iron chain connecting the ships."

Sun Quan was still a little hesitant, because Zhou Yu had guessed all of these, and he hadn't gotten the exact information yet. What if Zhang Wu was bluffing to force him to retreat and go to rescue Jiangxia City?Although the Jiangxia navy had iron chains and boats to rely on, after all, there were few people. After two days of desperate attacks, they were almost unable to hold on. As for the Jiangling navy, they didn't know how to fight water battles at all.

Zhou Yu felt helpless when he saw that Sun Quan had not given the order to retreat. Although the Jiangdong navy was powerful, Jiangdong soldiers were also human beings. The Jiangxia soldiers suffered heavy losses, and the Jiangdong army was also having a hard time, losing more soldiers than the Jiangxia navy.

During the critical time of these two days, the Jiangdong army did not eliminate the Jiangxia water army and then appeared in the predetermined position, which led to the defeat of the Cao army water army, and did not capture Jiangxia City. Cao Sun's joint plan to destroy Zhang had failed.Without Cao Jun holding back Xiangyang, Jiangdong would not be able to destroy Jingzhou on his own. After all, Jingzhou is also a big state with a population no less than Jiangdong.

There is no way, the lord never allows himself to lead so many soldiers to battle alone, the final command of this army is not in his hands!
The scouts who inquired about the news finally came back and reported the battle that took place in Jiangxia City to Sun Quan.

When Sun Quan heard from the scouts that Zhang Wu had come to Jiangxia City in person, he led his troops out of the city to fight back, defeated Cao Ren and Li Dian, and captured Cao Ren alive.Unexpectedly, when Zhang Wu was facing such a crisis in Xiangyang, he would leave Xiangyang and rush to Jiangxia to defeat Cao Ren. It seems that he had already planned it!

At this time, there was a burst of more violent cheers from the Jingzhou army. All the Jingzhou soldiers shouted "We must win!" The word handsome flag.

After a while, the cheers in the Jingzhou army stopped, and Zhang Wu stood on the deck of the big ship and said loudly: "Brothers, you have defended our relatives, friends, and our home with your blood and lives. I will forget you! Sun Quan's children have repeatedly violated our Jingzhou, and this time they took advantage of the fire to rob me and attack from behind. This feud is irreconcilable. Sooner or later, we will flatten Jiangdong and capture Sun Quan alive!"

"Tamp down Jiangdong and capture Sun Quan alive!"

"Tamp down Jiangdong and capture Sun Quan alive!"

Jingzhou soldiers shouted excitedly.

When the voice came, Sun Quan was so angry that he was so loud that he wanted to flatten Jiangdong and capture Sun Quan alive!
The lord humiliated his minister and died. The generals in Jiangdong saw that the Jingzhou army insulted their lord, and they all asked for a fight, but Zhou Yu didn't say a word.Zhou Yu was in favor of withdrawing the troops. Their morale is high now, and the iron chains and boats are difficult to deal with. If the fight continues, at most, both sides will suffer, and it will be of no benefit to anyone.But he can't say it now, otherwise, when you see the lord being humiliated, you, as a subordinate, don't think about venting your anger on the lord, but instead persuade the lord to endure it first, what do you make Sun Quan think?
Sun Quan glanced at Zhou Yu and knew that the governor wanted to retreat, but if he just retreated like this, wouldn't it mean that I was afraid of Zhang Wu?Am I shameless?Gongjin, Gongjin, I know you have a great talent, I know that you and my brother love brothers, but now I am the Lord of Jiangdong, I am not the emperor of Xudu, I am not Liu Qi, this Jiangdong can only I alone have the final say!
"Send the order, the whole army will attack, and fight to the death with the Jingzhou navy. Whoever takes Zhang Wu's head will be rewarded with a thousand gold and promoted to three levels!" I was defeated by him once, and now he is clamoring to flatten me, Jiangdong, and capture me alive?What a shame and humiliation this is, if I endure it like this, what's the point of being the Lord of Jiangdong?
Now some families in Jiangdong privately despise him, saying that he only inherited Sun Ce's legacy and was more than capable of defending the city, but not enough to attack it. After so many years, Jiangdong is still nestled in this area, unable to defeat Cao Cao to the north and even Jingzhou to the west. Can't beat it either.It doesn't matter if you can't defeat Cao Cao. He has a vast territory, a large number of people, and strong soldiers and horses. Jiangdong has poor infantry and no cavalry. That's okay, but it can't be justified if he can't even defeat Jingzhou, right?The Jiangdong navy is in vain called it invincible!
