Zhou Yu said: "In the decisive battle, the Wu army led by this governor will definitely defeat the more than 20,000 people led by Zhang Liao'er. Is it possible that Zijing does not have confidence?"

"My subordinates are naturally confident that the governor can win, but the Jizhou Army is brave and good at fighting and has experienced many battles. You should be more cautious when fighting against the Jizhou Army." Lu Su said, cupping his hands.

"I understand the meaning of Zijing's words. The Jizhou Army is indeed terrible, but I will ask the Jiangdong Army soldiers to tell the Jizhou Army that the majesty of the Jiangdong Army is also inviolable. Not only the Jizhou Army is elite, but the Jiangdong Army is also a battlefield.

Elite soldiers." Zhou Yu said slowly.

From Zhou Yu's tone, Lu Su felt absolute confidence. If the commander had no confidence in the military region, what would the military generals think when facing a war?

As for Zhou Yu's true inner thoughts, it is unknown.

Zhou Yu naturally knew the purpose of Zhang Liao's large-scale arrival of the Jizhou army. When it came to other generals, they would have focused on defeating the Cao army led by Xiahou Dun. But here, Zhang Liao turned out to be like this.

.

In fact, Zhou Yu's initial guess was that the Jizhou army would attack Cao's army. After all, Cao's army was closer to Yecheng and would threaten the safety of Yecheng after breaking through Chaoge. But now it seems that the situation is opposite to his guess.

The direction was developing, and the arrival of the Jizhou Army put the Jiangdong Army into a situation where it had to fight.

If the Jizhou army can engage in a large-scale battle with Cao's army, it will be of great help to Zhou Yu's plan to capture Jizhou. After the two armies fight, even if the Jizhou army can win, it will definitely lose troops and generals. In this case, no one can stop the Jiangdong army from occupying Jizhou.

At the same pace, after possessing Jizhou, Jiangdong Army has capital.

But now the situation seems to be in trouble. If Cao Jun breaks through Chaoge City as soon as possible, it will be beneficial to Jiangdong Army. If the war at Chaoge lasts, Jiangdong Army will inevitably be under a lot of pressure. The same thing will be done to Zhou Yu.

, At this time, the priority must be to deal with it. The alliance between Cao Jun and Jiangdong Army was forced by the situation. If possible, the officers and soldiers of both sides would be at odds with each other.

The depletion of Jiangdong's army was what Xiahou Dun wanted to see. In this case, it would not take much effort for Cao's army to occupy Jizhou.

The generals on both sides have the same idea. Jizhou is a hot spot in their eyes, but this hot spot does not seem to be as easy to deal with as it seems.

If you want to control this hot cake, you have to pay a big price.

The Jiangdong Army's attack on Nanpi has obviously weakened a lot. The vanguard of the Jizhou Army is stationed thirty miles away from Nanpi. According to the speed of the Jizhou Army's march, all the Jizhou Army will arrive in two days at most.

At that time, the real test for Jiangdong Army will come.

"General, look, it's the flag of our army." A general pointed at the army in the distance and said excitedly.

General Qianzhao hurriedly used the fairy mirror to watch. After seeing the big banner with the word "Jin", Qianzhao's eyes turned red. He guarded Nanpi.

During the battle, it was even more difficult to get news from the outside. Qianzhao also understood the current situation of the Jizhou Army. With Xiahou Dun leading an army to harass Chaoge City, the Jizhou Army would definitely not act rashly. But now it seems that the Jizhou Army is not.

It is to prepare to stabilize Nanpi first.

No matter what decision the leader of the Jizhou Army made, Qianzhao would always stick to Nanpi and make it difficult for the enemy to enter Nanpi City. This was the persistence of a general, and it was also Qianzhao's trust in his own strength.

After Jiangdong Army launched a crazy attack from three walls, the number of casualties of the defenders in the city increased significantly. Although the soldiers on the remaining two walls performed bravely during the defense, they suffered many losses.

At this time, there were about 2,600 soldiers in the city who could fight. The injured soldiers were recruited and allowed to leave temporarily.

In the process of resisting the Jiangdong Army's attack, the Jizhou Army led by Qian Zhao caused considerable damage to the Jiangdong Army. At least 6,000 troops lost their combat effectiveness.

When the soldiers in the army can gradually adapt to defending the city, it will be more beneficial to the Jizhou Army in the next battle, which is inevitable.

Moreover, in the process of defense, the Zhaozhao did not rely solely on the strength of the defenders. There were many young people among the people, and among these young people, there were not a few who had been trained before. When the order of the State Mufu was conveyed

After that, a training craze started among the people of Jizhou.

The power of the people is weak, but when the weak forces are gathered together, the power generated is impossible to ignore. From Qianzhao's point of view, the most important force in defending the city is the people in the city. Among the people,

Qingzhuang, since the beginning of the war, have often been active on the city wall, and Qianzhao has selected elite men from them and incorporated them into the army. However, the number of young Zhuangs is not very large. They assist the army in defending the city, and there are soldiers in the army who are responsible for this.

teach.

This kind of teaching is taught under the flames of war, which can leave a deeper impression on the people. These young men are also extremely attentive when learning. Behind them is their home. If they fail to fight against the enemy, it means

Their relatives will be killed by enemy troops.

The life of the people in Jizhou has been greatly improved after Lu Bu's arrival, and the people must have remembered it. Even though the young and strong among the people were damaged from time to time in the process of defending the city, the people were not afraid of it.

The people do not long for war, they are extremely afraid of war, and now in order to preserve everything in their hands, they must stand up and fight.

Under the propaganda of officials, the people understood their situation. Once the armies of other princes entered the city, their current lives would undergo earth-shaking changes. Jiangdong's army would definitely deprive them of everything they had in their hands.

The fields will be returned to the hands of the aristocratic family, and they will still have to live their old lives.

After getting the fields, the people will definitely not give up easily. Even if the road ahead is bumpy, the people will work hard to persevere. As long as the fields in their hands are still there, there is hope.

After Jiangdong's army broke through the city, the land deeds stamped by the government in their hands would become useless paper. In order not to lose their current life, the people also worked hard.

In the process of defending Jiangdong Army, Qianzhao truly felt the power of the people. The enemy's offensive was not unreasonable. However, with the help of the people, Qianzhao led the army to resist the attacks from Jiangdong Army again and again.

The attack made Jiangdong Army's attack in vain.
