Facing Xiahou Yuan's proposal, Taishi Ci knew what Xiahou Yuan meant.

Cao Cao sent an army this time. To put it nicely, he came to help Jiangdong, but in fact he came to Lujiang City for the food and grass. Sun Ce had already agreed to give the food and grass to Cao's army the food and grass to Cao's army.

Xiahou Yuan's troops were not as many as Taishi Ci's, and he left room for his attack on Lujiang. He did not send out elite troops, with the purpose of reducing unnecessary casualties. When siege, once Xiahou Yuan found that the casualties were a little large, he would call out gold to withdraw his troops, causing the attacking troops in Jiangdong to be affected and retreated. This has been several times.

Now in this way, Xiahou Yuan no longer wants to take risks with the lives of Cao's soldiers. If he is anxious, he will jump over the wall. Zhang Liao of Lujiang City is probably ready to fight to the death. If he continues to launch an attack, there will definitely be many casualties. Cao Cao is trying his best to defend Liu Jun. Every soldier is very precious. Of course, Xiahou Yuan thought of his own interests.

Now the two armies are joining forces, Cao Cao and Sun Ce are in the honeymoon period, and Lujiang City is the city of Jiangdong. Taishi Ci really should not reject Xiahou Yuan's proposal.

After thinking about it, Taishici said: "The previous period was General Xiahou Yuan's subordinates who had done a lot of efforts. Now that Lujiang City can be put in an instant, we won't bother General Xiahou. We also asked General Xiahou to lead his troops to rest for a while and see my Jiangdong soldiers defeat Zhang Liao in this way."

"Okay, I am waiting for General Taishi to show his power." Xiahou Yuan's face was full of smiles. "Maybe I can give this general the courage of Jiangdong."

Taishici despised Xiahou Yuan in his heart. What's the use of saying it so nicely? But it is undeniable that the combat effectiveness of Cao's army in siege is much stronger than that of Jiangdong Army. When Taishici saw that the Jiangdong Army was not as good as Cao's army in siege, Taishici was full of embarrassment.

Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou En and his troops gathered together and gave the attacking position to Taishi Ci, doing a very straightforward way.

Taishici ordered his Jiangdong army to assemble immediately. The Jiangdong army was reluctant. Not long after retreating, but judging from Taishici's posture, they were about to start the siege again. They were willing to obey Taishici's orders, but they just retreated and at least they had to take a break.

Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou En retreated to the other side and waited to watch the show.

"Uncle, the Jiangdong Army's offensive power is so weak, no wonder Liu Yu beat him like this." Xiahou En thought he knew why the Jiangdong Army continued to fail.

"If you think so, you're very wrong." Xiahou Yuan did not agree with Xiahou En's statement.

"What's wrong with my nephew? Please ask my uncle to teach me." Xiahou En was very modest, hoping to get Xiahou Yuan's teachings.

Xiahou Yuan is a core figure in Cao Cao's army. He has experienced countless battles of all sizes, and his experience is certainly not comparable to young people like Xiahou En.

"The reason why Jiangdong has been defeated repeatedly is not because they are weak. It is because the Liu army is too strong. Sun Ce swept across Jiangdong, which is enough to prove that Sun Ce is capable. Strong generals have no weak soldiers. Sun Ce is the leader of the army and will not let his soldiers be so weak. Jiangdong has always been a hero, and the quality of the soldiers is not weaker than that of the northern part. This situation is because Jiangdong's elites were almost consumed by Liu's army. A large part of the Jiangdong army led by Taishi Ci was temporarily allocated by Sun Ce from the Jiangdong family. In the battle of Chibi, Jiangdong almost lost most of its elites and had to draw strong men from the aristocratic families and the people to serve as troops. It is already very good for such troops to have such combat power. Taishi Ci is indeed a good general."

"So it's a miscellaneous army, no wonder it looks so weak." Xiahou En suddenly realized.

Xiahou Yuan didn't say another sentence, that is, the Cao army on his side is different now, and most of the elite troops were killed by Liu's army. The Cao army led by Xiahou Yuan is incomparable to the previous fierce Cao army.

The situation is stronger than that of others. Cao Cao has been suppressed by Liu Yu, and now he has shrunk to the point where only Yuzhou is left. If the battles on the battlefield, there will be casualties. After all the elite soldiers under his command are gone, Yuzhou will probably no longer be able to defend.

"It's just a hundred steps to laugh." Xiahou Yuan was full of wry smiles. "The situation here is not much better. Now the lord is relying on defending his life to barely protect the safety of Yuzhou."

"Uncle, now there is only the troops left in Lujiang City, and it can hardly resist it for long. Why did my uncle give up this beautiful thing to Jiangdong? Why not let our soldiers break through Lujiang? This will greatly increase the morale of the soldiers." Xiahou En still couldn't understand that Xiahou Yuan gave up the last opportunity to Jiangdong.

Xiahou Yuan educated: "You must not underestimate any enemy, especially the generals under Liu Jun. Do you think Zhang Liao in Lujiang City is a person who can be defeated easily? If you are forced to death, the Liu army in Lujiang City will fight to the death and fight to the death. We cannot risk this danger. Lujiang is a city in Jiangdong, so we don't need to sacrifice our brothers. Every soldier in Yuzhou is precious and cannot be wasted on recapturing the city for others. Nephew, think more about everything, so that the soldiers who follow you will not suffer losses."

Only then did Xiahou En know what Xiahou Yuan had planned. It turned out to be such a plan. However, Xiahou Yuan had the right plan and conquered Lujiang. He only got money and food on his side, and the city still had to be returned to Jiangdong. With this calculation, there was no need to fight the last attack.

"Thank you, my nephew, for your teachings! My nephew has received the teachings." Xiahou En seemed to have benefited a lot.

"You can see more later to see how the Jiangdong Army attacked the city. Taishi Ziyi is a man of wisdom and courage, and there are many things worth learning from." Xiahou Yuan said.

Xiahou En obeyed Xiahou Yuan's instructions and stared at the battlefield.

On Taishici's side, Lu Meng and Sun Quan did not understand why he assembled the troops, so Sun Quan came over and asked: "General Ziyi, why did he assemble all the troops."

Lu Meng was also confused.

Taishi said with a wry smile: "It's not the Cao army yet. Xiahou Yuan said that the Liu army in Lujiang only has a little force left, so we will capture Lujiang City next. I thought it makes sense, so I summoned the troops."

"What does Xiahou Yuan mean? He actually disregarded the righteousness of his allies?" Sun Quan was very dissatisfied. Xiahou Yuan was obviously unwilling to do his best.

"The Cao army is still unreliable. They have seen that in the last attack, Zhang Liao will definitely fight to the death. Many soldiers will be killed and injured. They are waiting to watch on the wall." Lu Meng rarely said a few cultural words.

Taishici was very happy with Lu Meng's growth, because after being attacked by Zhang Liao, Lu Meng felt his shortcomings. When he attacked Lujiang, he often asked Taishici for advice. Lu Meng was born with lack of knowledge, but only he had this diligent and studious heart. Taishici believed that Lu Meng's future would be limitless in the future.

"Hmph! I'm talking about allies, but in the final analysis, they are all selfish guys." Sun Quan saw through the joint relationship between Cao Cao and Sun Ce.

Lu Meng knew that Sun Quan was unhappy, so he persuaded: "Lord, there is no need to get angry with people like Xiahou Yuan. If you get angry, wouldn't you just fall into their tricks? Are they looking at us at this time?"

After being reminded by Lu Meng, Sun Quan looked back at Xiahou Yuan and found that Xiahou Yuan was smiling at them at this time.

Sun Quan regained his mentality, and he didn't want to be laughed at by others.

The reason why Xiahou Yuan smiled was really because of Sun Quan. Sun Quan's appearance was different from ordinary people, not only with thick hair, but also purple-red. Xiahou Yuan had met Sun Jian, but Sun Quan did not look like Sun Jian at all. Xiahou Yuan even suspected that Sun Jian's wife stole someone when Sun Jian was out. Otherwise, how could Sun Quan not look like Sun Jian at all?

Xiahou Yuan’s smile was because of the dirty little in his heart.

Taishi Ci waved his hand, not wanting to waste more time on this topic, and said, "Zhongmou, Ziming, let's not talk much. Lujiang is our city in Jiangdong, and our Jiangdong things should be taken back by my Jiangdong children!"

"General Ziyi, you said it well! Let the Cao army turtle grandsons led by Xiahou Yuan see how powerful my Jiangdong children are! Take down Lujiang City!" Sun Quan was very encouraged.

Taishi Ci nodded, then walked out of the conversation between the three of them and said to the Jiangdong soldiers who had assembled: "Soldiers, Lujiang City is within your control. Zhang Liao's troops suffered heavy casualties. As long as we launch this attack, Lujiang City will return to my Jiangdong's hands. Soldiers, pick up your swords and take back the city belonging to me! Kill Zhang Liao without leaving any armor!"

Sun Quan and Lu Meng were beside Taishi Ci and said loudly: "Take back Lujiang! Kill Zhang Liao without leaving any armor!"

The soldiers of Jiangdong were inspired by generals such as Taishici, and their morale was high.

"Kill!" Taishici pointed at Lujiang with a big gun in his hand.

The soldiers of the Jiangdong Army formed an attack formation and slowly rushed towards Lujiang. Their previous attacks were stubbornly blocked by Zhang Liao. This time they had learned their skills.

Zhang Liao on the Lujiang City Wall heard the loud shouts of Jiangdong Army, and knew that a new wave of attacks was coming.

"I wonder if I can keep it this time!" Zhang Liao was very worried. "Forget it, at worst, you can live and die with Lujiang City!"

After eating something and having a short rest just now, Zhang Liao recovered a little energy. Now he really wants to lie down and have a sleep. However, the severe reality cannot satisfy Zhang Liao's small wish.

Zhang Liao had the intention to fight to the death. Even if he was very tired now, he didn't care. Isn't there a saying? Why sleep for a long time before death? You will definitely sleep forever after death.

The other Liu Jun soldiers stood up one by one. The gap just now had already restored their strength, and now they are about to start fighting again.

Zhang Liao carried his big sword and slowly came to the city wall. Looking at the formation of the Jiangdong Army slowly approaching in the distance, he knew that the opponent was going to launch the last attack.

"Haha, soldiers, the enemy is now ready to launch the last attack! Are you afraid?" Zhang Liao said high.

"Not afraid! At worst, you will be a hero again in 18 years." The remaining Liu Jun soldiers had long put life and death aside.

"Okay, I am worthy of being my subordinates of Zhang Wenyuan, and they all have a good temper!" Zhang Liao was very proud of his subordinates. It was not easy for him to persevere until now.

"Soldiers, the enemy thought this was going to make us frightened? They didn't look very good, but they thought beautifully!" Zhang Liao joked.

"Haha!" Liu Jun soldiers all laughed.

Zhang Liao then pointed his face at Jiangdong Army under the city wall and said, "Soldiers, let these wastes know about our power! I will listen to our general's orders and kill them fiercely!"

"Kill!" Liu Jun soldiers' fighting spirit was also high.

When the war reached this point, the Liu army soldiers had already killed many enemy troops. They all knew that they might not be able to leave Lujiang alive. Since they could not live, it would be better to kill a few more enemy troops. His Majesty will definitely remember the contributions of these soldiers and let their families receive better pensions.

The high fighting spirit expressed by the Liu army soldiers made the Jiangdong army, who were ready to attack the city, feel it.

Taishici's face was a little pale and sunk. With such a high fighting spirit, the Jiangdong Army might suffer a lot. But the arrow was on the string and he had to fire. Taishici couldn't let the Jiangdong Army retreat. Xiahou Yuan of Cao's army was still watching from behind. If he retreated, he would be embarrassed.

Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou En kept watching Zhang Liao on the city wall. The fighting spirit that Liu Jun burst out deeply shocked Xiahou Yuan.

"At this moment, Liu Jun was still so warlike. Liu Yu was indeed good at governing the army. It was also the place where we wanted to learn." Xiahou Yuan said with emotion.

Xiahou En was attracted by Liu Jun's aura. He felt that if the soldiers under his command were all like Liu Jun's soldiers, they would definitely be invincible.

Cao's army can no longer satisfy Xiahou En's wish.

The Jiangdong Army slowly advanced, and Zhang Liao and others on the city wall were ready. The archers pulled the bow and raised the arrows, and the infantry were all holding wood, stone, and turbulent oil to fight against the enemy.

"The soldiers, let me see it!" Zhang Liao stared at Jiangdong Army.

Taishici immediately ordered: "Arrower, shoot me!"

The Jiangdong Army was the first to launch an attack, trying to use long-range strikes to cover the infantry's siege. Since Zhang Liao had blocked the city gate, the Jiangdong Army had to climb the city wall if they wanted to attack Lujiang. Countless Jiangdong infantry carried cloud ladders and mixed in the large army.

Zhang Liao and the others had prepared shields and were waiting for the enemy's attack.
