Chapter 760 (1/2)
Xia Houyuan barracks in a cry, the prime minister's army is about to arrive, take small Wu county is not easy?
Compared with the cheers of XiaHouYuan's army, the atmosphere in Wu County suddenly became solidified.
Palace City, Wu County, in the conference hall.
Sun Quan was sitting on the throne, his young face frowned and his face heavy.
”Governor, is this news true?”
Sun Quan asked Zhou Yu at the top of the left.
Zhou Yu nodded and confirmed: ”this is a letter jointly signed by Gong Yi and Youtai Gong. It should be true. Moreover, Cao Cao is afraid that the Bing Feng has already pointed to Danyang and will arrive in Wujun in a few days.”
”That is to say, there are at least 560000 Cao soldiers gathered in Wu County?”
”My God, what can I do?”
”It's over. This is really a disaster.”
Many Jiangdong civil and military officials were frightened. Today, a letter was sent from Wanling City, Danyang county. It was signed by Fu Bo Zhonglang, Jiang Qin and Danyang prefect Sun Jing.
It is said that there were 100000 Cao troops coming through Yuzhang county. Sun Ben, the prefect of Yuzhang County, had already surrendered to the enemy. Therefore, Yuzhang county was directly in the hands of Cao's army, and Cao's army, which marched eastward with great fanfare, is now storming Danyang county.
Sun Jing resisted with difficulty and sent the letter to teach Sun Quan to make a decision early.
”You can rest assured that a certain army once fought against Cao's army in Lujiang River. The number of Cao's troops is between 30000 and 40000 at most, and there is absolutely no possibility that there will be as many as 100000.” Zhou Yu said.
After listening to Zhou Yu's words, some people are relieved. After all, 30000 or 40000 people are better than 100000 people.
Some people are still worried. There are 340000 Cao Cao and 15000 XiaHouYuan people outside Wu County. The total strength of Jiangdong army is only about 20000.
What's more, Danyang county's military strength is weak, so it can't resist the fierce attack of Cao's army, which means that most of Jiangdong's territory is now in the hands of Cao's army.
It can be said that this is the biggest crisis in Jiangdong.
”Lord!”
Tai Shici suddenly stood up and clasped his fists. His eyes were firm and he said, ”you Tai Gong is holding fast in Danyang county. No matter how fast Cao's army is, it will take at least a few more days before we can reach Wujun. Our army is not without a chance!”
”At present, our troops in Wu County are more than Xia Houyuan's, and the people's hearts are against him. We can completely defeat Xia Houyuan and cut off one of Cao Cao's arms.”
”Once the main force of Cao Cao arrives in Wu County and joins forces with Xia Houyuan, then even if our army wants to fight against Xia Houyuan, we will not have this opportunity.”
”Please order the Lord to personally supervise the army to attack XiaHouYuan's barracks. The last general is willing to be the vanguard and defeat XiaHouYuan in one fell swoop!”
Tai Shici said boldly.
He said so, many Jiangdong army generals applauded one after another.
Chen Wu got up and said, ”my Lord, order me. Even if Chen Wu is going to spare this life, I will break through the camp gate of XiaHouYuan.”
Huang Gai clasped his fist and said: ”Huang is not old enough. Please give me an order. I'm willing to lead the troops to rush into the array.”
”My Lord, it's better to fight with Xia Houyuan than to wait for death!”
Hearing so many calls for war, Sun Quan couldn't help but shake his fist. After all, he was a young man, and his heart also gave birth to the idea of fighting to the death with Xia Houyuan.
