Zhou Yu discussed some details with Guo Tu, and the two sides agreed to launch an attack on Xiapi City in three days.

After the conversation, Zhou Yu left Donghai. He wanted to go back and tell Sun Ce to prepare to attack Xiapi.

After Zhou Yu left, Zhao Yun asked Guo Tu: "Mr. Gongze, has your Majesty really agreed to Sun Ce's request?"

Guan Yu felt very uncomfortable. Liu Yu agreed to Sun Ce because he looked down on their ability to capture Xuzhou.

Guo Tu said: "Your Majesty has great ambitions, so he naturally has arrangements. Xiapi City is the largest city in Xuzhou. The city is high and the ditch is deep. It may not be easy to attack Xiapi City. Although our army has the strength to fight, but

This loss will be huge. In addition, Sun Ce has already occupied Guangling County. If two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. It is very likely that Sun Ce will take advantage. It is better to give some benefits and let Sun Ce be the vanguard to share the pressure for our army."

"That's it!" Guan Yu finally felt a little more comfortable.

Zhao Yun looked worried and said: "I'm afraid Sun Ce won't be so stupid, and Zhou Yu won't send troops so happily."

"Sun Ce will definitely not be so happy, but His Majesty verbally promised them to give them the counties south of Xiapi. Even if they don't want to take action against Xiapi, they will seize the counties they want, so they will share the burden invisibly.

Our pressure has created opportunities for us. Two generals, please be prepared to launch the attack on Xiapi in three days," Guo Tu said.

Guan Yu and Zhao Yun nodded, now is the time to attack Xiapi.

Zhou Yu returned to Guangling and said to Sun Ce: "Bo Fu, I have made an appointment with Liu Jun to launch an attack in three days. And Liu Yu also agreed to our previous conditions!"

"Liu Yu is so generous?" Sun Ce is not that simple.

Zhou Yu said: "Of course Liu Yu will not be so happy. He is only talking verbally. As for the possibility of taking action against us in the future."

Sun Ce said dissatisfied: "So shameless! Let's just not join forces with them! Let's do it alone. I, Sun Ce, have never been afraid of anyone."

Sun Ce wants to go it alone!? Zhou Yu would not agree and said: "Bo Fu, I know you are brave and not afraid of any opponent. But Xuzhou now has three pillars. If our army does not join forces with Liu Jun, then Cao Jun and Liu Jun will attack us.

Take action. By then our army will be driven out of Xuzhou, and all the previous efforts will be in vain."

"Then we can't let Liu Yu take advantage of us!" Sun Ce was very unhappy.

"Bo Fu, whoever has the biggest fist in this era has the right to speak. We can't compare with Liu Yu's strength now, so we can only swallow our anger and slowly accumulate strength. As long as we are strong enough, Liu Yu won't dare

What about us! And this time I saw Liu Yu’s troops and horses in the East China Sea. They were commanding and forbidding, exuding a tough atmosphere. Our troops are all from the south, Xuzhou has many plains, and Liu Jun’s cavalry is strong. These are not our troops.

It can be compared now. Bo Fu, you have to keep your composure!" Zhou Yu persuaded him earnestly.

Sun Ce was unhappy. Except for being a bit arrogant from Yuan Shu, he had been going smoothly over the years since his debut. He couldn't accept such a big change all of a sudden.

But Sun Ce is also a competitive person. When he heard that Liu Yu had strong soldiers and horses, he became resistant. Just because he can't defeat Liu Yu now doesn't mean he won't be able to win in the future. He, Sun Ce, is still young and has plenty of time and energy.

Come and fight against Liu Yu.

After understanding the situation, Sun Ce regained his fighting spirit and said, "Gong Jin, what should we do?"

Zhou Yu was very happy that Sun Ce could accept his suggestion, and he also believed that Sun Ce would not be scared by Liu Yu.

"Liu Yu planned to let us be his pawns, so we did as he wished and threw all our troops into it. However, although we were attacking Xiapi City, we first attacked the counties and counties south of Xiapi.

Let's talk about occupying it. If Guo Tu and others come to urge us, we will have to go on an expedition without enough food and grass. I think they will understand us." Zhou Yu said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"You are good or bad, but I like you!" Sun Ce said, putting his arms around Zhou Yu's neck.

"Let go! I can't breathe!" Zhou Yu's brain was congested.

Just when Sun Ce and Guan Yu reached a consensus, Liu Bei in Xiapi City was in extreme worry.

Liu Xie, the news that Cao Cao abandoned Xuchang and moved the capital to Shouchun has spread, and Liu Yu has captured Xuchang. Moving the capital sounds good, but it sounds bad and means running away. Liu Bei, who understands this well, naturally understands the meaning.

Liu Xie has no hope, and the Han Dynasty is no longer the Han Dynasty it used to be.

Liu Bei now knew that he was on the wrong team. He made one wrong step and one wrong step. He should have joined Liu Yu's team earlier. If that were the case, he would now be a high-ranking official with high authority.

The past has become a thing of the past, and Liu Bei is a generous man and doesn't care so much. What he is thinking about now is how to find an excuse to leave this dangerous place.

Yes, Liu Bei was thinking of running away again. Sun Ce occupied Guangling County, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun and Chen sent troops to Donghai Kingdom. Liu Bei lived in fear every day in Xiapi City.

Cao Hong kept saying that he could drive a wedge between Liu Jun and Sun Ce. All they had to do was defend Xiapi City and sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.

Liu Bei sneered at this statement. Cao Hong was too arrogant. Let alone sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. If the two armies joined forces, with the current strength, it would be a question whether Xiapi City could be defended.

Once he is caught by Guan Yu, he will definitely not end well.

Thinking of Xiapi City being breached and having no excuse to leave, Liu Bei's face felt like a bitter gourd. Liu Bei thought about it for a long time but could not think of a suitable reason, which made him very worried.

"Xuan De Gong, as long as we defend Xiapi City, Sun Ce and Guan Yu will definitely have conflicts. Then we will take advantage of the situation and regain the lost territory in one fell swoop!" Cao Hong encouraged Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was almost calloused by Cao Hong's words. Just as he was about to speak, a guard of Cao Hong rushed in from the door and said cheerfully to them: "Reporting to you two adults, the reinforcements sent by the Prime Minister from Yanzhou have arrived.

!”

"Haha, great. Xiapi is as stable as Mount Tai!" Cao Hong said happily.

Liu Bei's eyes lit up and he asked: "How many soldiers and horses are there? Who is leading the army?"

Cao Hong's personal soldiers replied: "It's General Xia Houyuan, coming with 10,000 troops! He is waiting at the west gate of Xiapi."
