Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

Chapter 494: Zhou Yu's determination

After hearing Lu Su's words, Zhou Yu was unable to breathe and apparently fainted.

He suppressed his fear and reviewed the whole incident.

In the end, Zhou Yu finally figured everything out.

It turned out that from the moment Liu Yu deployed his troops in Jiangbei to confront him, he had never intended to use the navy to fight him.

Whether it was the shouting and screaming during the whole day's training or the plan of connecting the boats with iron chains, they were all just smoke bombs released by Liu Yu.

His real purpose is actually Wu County!

"What a great plan! Uncle Liu's plan is truly ingenious!"

Zhou Yu could not help but admire him. He had to admit that Liu Yu did have extraordinary wisdom and courage.

"He is really cunning. He knew that the Jiangdong navy was extremely elite and difficult to resist, but he came up with such a trick to avoid a head-on confrontation with us."

Lu Meng's voice was filled with endless sarcasm and anger, and he was very dissatisfied with Liu Yu's strategy.

They originally thought they had the overall situation under control, but they didn't expect that they would be tricked by Liu Yu in the end.

"Using your own weaknesses to attack the enemy's strengths is not a wise move! Uncle Liu is a wise man of the time, how could he not understand this truth? Now it seems that I underestimated the enemy."

As the few people talked in low voices, the scouts from Wu County were also brought into the tent. The intelligence they brought was exactly the same as what Lu Su said.

After Liu Bei led his army to land in Jiaxing, the cavalry galloped across the country, invincible and no one could resist.

The army quickly approached Wu County and surrounded the entire city in a short time.

However, what is strange is that although the city had been under siege for many days, Liu Yu did not order his soldiers to force an attack on the city.

"General, Uncle Liu did not order his soldiers to attack the city. He must be afraid of the strong defense of Wu County. If I lead the troops back to rescue Wu County, I will definitely be able to rescue the lord before Wu County is breached."

Zhou Yu was extremely intelligent. After a moment's contemplation, he understood Liu Yu's intention.

"Combining with Emperor Liu's past military strategies, the reason why he has been delaying the siege is probably not because Wu County's defense is impregnable, but because he is waiting for the arrival of our reinforcements."

"Why is this?" Lu Meng was still confused.

"Waiting for the enemy to tire themselves out and besieging a point to attack reinforcements are all tactics that Emperor Liu is always good at using. If you, Ziming, lead the army back now, you will definitely fall into the trap he has carefully laid."

"The Lord is now under siege, how can we not send troops to rescue him? Is there any other better solution?"

Zhou Yu gave a bitter smile, his eyes full of loneliness and helplessness.

There was nothing wrong with what Lu Meng said. At the moment, it seemed that they had no better solution than to return to rescue.

This is exactly where Uncle Liu's brilliance lies. Even though they knew there was a trap ahead, they had no choice but to jump in without hesitation in order to rescue their lord.

At this time, Cheng Pu and Huang Gai had a dazed look on their faces, as if time had gone backwards, and their thoughts involuntarily returned to the Hulao Pass of that year.

At that time, Liu Yu did not have as many soldiers and powerful army as he does now, but his unparalleled wisdom had already been fully demonstrated.

In front of Hulao Pass, facing Li Ru, who was known as the best strategist under Dong Zhuo, Liu Yu was not afraid at all. He confronted him head-on and did not lose the upper hand at all.

It can be said that if Liu Yu had not carefully planned it, the Guandong coalition forces would have been wiped out by Dong Zhuo long ago.

Compared with the other two, Zu Mao had an extra indescribable emotion. This emotion was very subtle and made Zu Mao feel relieved.

At the beginning of the war, he tried his best to persuade Sun Quan, hoping that Sun Quan would listen to Liu Yu's request and send the hostages away on his own initiative.

Many people believe that the reason why he was so persistent in persuading Sun Quan was because he was grateful to Liu Yu for saving his life and wanted to repay Liu Yu.

However, only Zu Mao himself knew that his persuasion was not out of gratitude, but came from deep-seated fear and awe.

This fear was like a seed rooted in Zumao's blood, taking root, sprouting, and gradually growing into a big tree.

Lu Su sincerely advised: "Gongjin, Wu County has been surrounded now, and it is only a matter of time before the city is broken. The reason why Emperor Liu did not launch an attack was not just to besiege the city and attack the reinforcements, but he could not bear to see the people of Wu County suffer the devastation of war.

Gongjin, you have great vision and intelligence. How could you not see the current situation in the world?

Liu Huangshu dominated one side with great strength, and swallowed up several states in the north. His trend of unifying the world was unstoppable.

If you can follow the will of heaven, know how to judge the situation, and take the initiative to surrender to Emperor Liu, then this world dispute can be settled soon, and the people can live a peaceful life soon. "

Zhou Yu looked solemn and sighed slowly, his eyes showing deep helplessness and grief. He raised his head and looked into the distance, as if he saw the days when he and Sun Ce had fought side by side and pursued world hegemony together.

At that time, they were full of vigor and ambition, and their friendship was as deep as that of brothers.

However, now, facing Liu Yu's wisdom and power, Zhou Yu was in trouble.

He knew in his heart that if he fell into Liu Yu's trap and surrendered without a fight, he would not only disappoint Sun Ce's trust and expectations in him, but would also become a shame in the history of Jiangdong.

Therefore, Zhou Yu decided to fight to the end and defend this precious friendship with his perseverance.

"I have known Bofu for many years and have always regarded him as my lifelong confidant. If I cannot defeat Uncle Liu today, how can I surrender so easily?

I am willing to repay our friendship with my own death!"

Zhou Yu's tone was firm and his eyes were full of determination.

"Grand Commander, you must not do that! Although Liu Huangshu's soldiers are strong, they are by no means invincible. The most urgent task now should be for you to lead the soldiers back quickly and form a force of internal and external support with the defenders in the city. This will surely defeat him."

Lu Meng seemed very confident. In his opinion, there was no battle in this world that could guarantee an absolute victory, and naturally there could be no invincible soldiers.

Therefore, the same must be true for Liu Bei's soldiers, and there would be no exceptions.

However, Zhou Yu did not agree with Lu Meng's point of view.

Because at this moment, the two sides were no longer in a stalemate, but Liu Huangshu successfully besieged Wu County, thus completely taking the initiative on the battlefield.

In this situation, perhaps only by using some unusual tricks can we reverse the current unfavorable situation.
