Crossing the Battle of the Three Kingdoms

After Zhou Yu finished talking about the affairs outside the city, he opened his mouth to suggest: "Li Jun's generals are already complacent, so the soldiers must be too."

"Yu believes that tomorrow we can lead our troops to fight Li Jun. If we lose, we will follow the previous plan. If we win, we will continue to leave the battlefield outside the city. After all, fighting in the city will cause great disaster to the people."

Zhou Yu didn't want to fight in the same city, because as long as they entered the city, they would suffer regardless of whether they defended it or not.

Moreover, in the battle in the city, when the situation is not right, it is very difficult for soldiers and horses to gather. If one is not careful, they will lose contact and fight in chaos.

However, seeing that Yuan Shao was afraid of Li Jun at that time, Zhou Yu did not raise any objections. Faced with embarrassing Yuan Shao, he was under the rule of others after all.

At this time, Zhou Yu can be said to have won a game against Li Jun, so he is naturally qualified to raise different opinions.

Hearing that Zhou Yu led his men to retreat in Li Junzhong, Yuan Shao was shocked, and at the same time had the idea of ​​recruiting him.

But now that Mi Zhu and other idlers are present, Yuan Shao will not openly poach someone, so he can only smile and say: "Well, what the governor said makes sense."

"But our army doesn't have a strong general to lead us. We fear that if we fight outside the city, we may be divided and surrounded by Li's army."

Seeing that Yuan Shao uncharacteristically agreed, Zhou Yu murmured in his heart, but he still said, "You can rest assured about this. Yu can let his subordinates and others lead the armies. I am afraid that Yuan Zhoumu will not be at ease."

"Hahaha." Yuan Shao said with a smile: "What's the matter, right now we are all on the same boat, and the soldiers and horses under our command are at the disposal of the governor."

Yuan Shao was so polite, but Zhou Yu didn't dare to take the lead, so he could only smile and said, "Yuan Zhoumu is being polite. Since that's the case, the generals under Yu's command, Zhou Yu, are in charge of the task."

"Okay." Yuan Shao was waiting for this sentence, and as soon as Zhou Yu said it, he quickly responded, for fear that he would go back on his word.

Seeing Yuan Shao's appearance like this, Zhou Yu already understood what he meant, but he was not worried, because these generals were all veterans who followed Sun Ce, and they would not be easily incited to rebel.

Seeing that the topic was off track, Zhou Yu pulled back and said, "Testing today, I found that when Li Jun fought, most of them formed a group of three, and nine formed a circle. Yuan Zhoumu knew what he meant."

The three-man formation is the basic formation for Li Jun's training, and it is also a common formation for combat. It must be strange for Zhou Yu to fight against each other for the first time.

However, Yuan Shao has been fighting with Li Jun for many years, and he has known it for a long time. He said: "The governor does not know, this is the formation created by Li Huiyi, and it is the usual formation of Li Jun."

"Oh?" Zhou Yu asked curiously: "Then, can Zhou Mu understand this formation?"

Yuan Shao paused, and said awkwardly: "This is really not true. Although Li Jun's ordinary soldiers know it, they can only talk, and they don't have specifics at all."

"Shao Zeng sent generals to use it in the army for some days, but the effect was not good, and it was useless again."

Yuan Shao's words made Zhou Yu startled and frowned slightly. Li Huiyi and Yuan Shao had been at war for at least several years.

But Yuan Shao didn't even understand Li Jun's situation clearly, isn't that funny.

Zhou Yu would not believe that Yuan Shao had no talent. After getting along with each other these days, Yuan Shao’s words and deeds can be said to be a hero, but there is only a little problem. No one is perfect, and everyone has it. This is normal .

So there is only one reason for all this, that is, Li Jun has not yet had a senior general captured by Yuan Shao, and he has not lost to Yuan Shao once. How can this not be surprising.

Zhou Yu paused for a moment, pretending to be indifferent, and said, "Oh, if that's the case, how about capturing a few prisoners in this battle and asking them to see what's the secret?"

Yuan Shao shook his head and said: "It's useless, Li Jun's captives are all stubborn people, they won't speak."

Most of the people who fought against Yuan Shao were foreign recruits from Goguryeo and Wuhuan, and they all knew what the Han did to foreigners.

Chapter 622 Decisive Battle (24)

Since the left and right are going to die, why not die more heroically, so that their home in the north will also receive special care from Li Huiyi.

This was also a means for Li Huiyi to buy and sell them. At the beginning, Li Huiyi promised to marry a Han woman to start a family after three years in the army. This was his purpose. After all, family affection was sometimes greater than his own life.

On the one hand, they are giving favors, and on the other hand, they are morally kidnapping with weak ribs. These soldiers and horses of the foreign race can be said to be completely devoted to Li Huiyi, because they have no better choice.

Zhou Yu rubbed his chin, showing the same expression that everyone had when they heard about this, trying to figure out how Li Huiyi turned the evil into a useful one.

Seeing his appearance, Yuan Shao said, "Most of Li Huiyi's subordinates are of different races, and let them settle down in the north and live with the Han people, all of them are treated equally."

"Huh?" Zhou Yu opened his eyes slightly, and suddenly thought of one thing, why Sun Ce has been slow to take action, is because there are hundreds of thousands of foreign races, Baiyue, watching under the rule.

Listening to Yuan Shao now, Zhou Yu wondered if they could also use this method to subdue Baiyue and recruit the clansmen into the army.

If this method is successful, then Sun Ce will be able to increase his troops by [-], and the population of Yangzhou will also exceed several million, and his strength will be able to squeeze into the top few by then.

When Zhou Yu thought of this, a smile appeared on his face, but he stopped it in an instant, and put on a look of sudden realization.

Zhou Yu nodded and said: "This Li Huiyi is really a talented person. If he can think of such a method, if he spreads it to various places early, the strength of the great man will surely be as high as the sky."

Yuan Shao snorted and said, "Even if someone raises such a matter of collusion with other races, the emperor will not use it. If a hundred years later, the alien race rebels, the world will be in chaos, and the Han people will be in dire straits. Li Huiyi will be a sinner."

This is a typical case of not being able to eat grapes and saying that grapes are sour. You must know that the Han people are several times that of the foreign races. After a hundred years, the foreign races will also be Sinicized. It is impossible for them to assimilate the Han people.

With Zhou Yu's wisdom, of course he understands this principle, otherwise he would not appreciate it, let alone implement this method in Yangzhou.

But at Yuan Shao's place at this time, Zhou Yu didn't want to argue about this meaningless matter, so he nodded and said: "The state shepherd is right. Since Li Jun is fierce, we must kill their vigor even more."

"Otherwise the soldiers in the army are afraid, even if they are put into the city to fight hand-to-hand, I'm afraid they won't be able to gain the upper hand."

Zhou Yu led the battle, while Mi Zhu, Yuan Shao and others chose a conservative approach, because they had fought against Li Jun before and knew the pros and cons.

The alliance was most afraid of different voices, so Ju Shou remonstrated at this time: "Since Governor Zhou insists on fighting, the first battle will be outside the city. If you can't win, you will turn to defend inside the city."

To persuade a person who is in charge of the battle, it is best to let him fight a battle to break his heart, otherwise he will always have a warlike heart.

Yuan Shao heard Ju Shou's words, thought for a moment and said: "Okay then, let's go to battle with the whole army tomorrow, let's see how the situation is, and Zhou Dudu, do you think it's possible?"

Zhou Yu clasped his fists and said, "That's very good. Tomorrow our troops will be the leader, Yuanzhou Mu and Mi Zhu Bo will be behind, if Yu wins, everyone will immediately wave your troops to cover up the kill."

No need to start, what Yuan Shao, Mi Zhu and the two said, they will definitely agree.

After discussing with each other, everyone came to a fairly satisfactory answer, and went back to each department to prepare for tomorrow's affairs.

When Zhou Yu returned to his residence, he immediately sent someone back to Yangzhou, preparing to let Sun Ce treat Baiyue like Li Huiyi and take it for his own use.

Right now, both sides have to deal with it. As for the result, the conclusion of tomorrow's battle on the battlefield will naturally be clear at a glance.

The next day, it was a cloudy day, the sky was covered by dark clouds, the armies of both sides started early, and they lined up outside the city by coincidence.

The two sides watched each other for a while, seeing that the formation was all on defense and waiting to attack, they both knew in their hearts that this was to test the truth.

As Yuan Shao was the master, he was the one to say the opening remarks. He led Zhou Yu and others to the two armies.

"Xu Shu, today we are waiting for the allied forces to fight you to the death. I don't know whether we dare to respond."

Hearing the shout, Xu Shu patted his horse and led a group of generals to answer. "Yuan Zhoumu, it's been a few days since we left each other. I miss you very much."

Xu Shu's words were to expose people's scars. After hearing this, Yuan Shao's face showed a bit of stiffness, but his tone did not stop.

"Xu Shu, what you planned that day will not work today, so just say whether you dare to fight."

Xu Shu smiled and said: "I am willing to accompany you, no matter whether you are fighting or fighting, it is up to you to decide."
