    The sky is getting slightly brighter.

    The injured soldiers gathered together to bandage their wounds, but no one spoke.  Although Jiangdong's army chased Xiangyang's city last night, the city gate unexpectedly did not open. The arrows raining down while killing all the defeated Jingzhou soldiers also caused certain casualties to Jiangdong's army.

    Zhou Yu took a deep breath, turned the horse's head, waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Go back to camp." Under the Tigers, Zhou Yu's face was uglier than anyone else's. After the battle last night, he felt that his  An inexplicable emotion filled his chest, making him unable to breathe.

    Seeing that Zhou Yu looked unhappy, Gan Ning did not dare to say anything.  He jumped on his horse and let the horse follow the army slowly towards the camp.  Gan Ning sat on the saddle, unable to stand the silent atmosphere around him. Out of boredom, he had no choice but to lift up the hem of his shirt and carefully wipe the blood on his sword.  Seeing that the blade was slightly chipped due to multiple cuts, Gan Ning bared his teeth in distress and took a breath.

    Tai Shici also got on his horse, holding an iron halberd and saying nothing.  He looked back at Kuai Yue standing on the city with a gloomy expression, and gritted his teeth.  Last night, Taishi Ci rushed to the front of the pursuit team. He only hoped that he could be the first to scale the city wall of Xiangyang and cut off Kuai Yue's head to express his bad breath that day when he bit the beggar. As a result, Kuai Yue was ruthless.  After all, it was beyond his imagination.

    "After solving these problems, how many soldiers do you think there are left in the city to fight?" Gan Ning finally couldn't help it anymore and approached Zhou Yu and asked.

    "Thousands? Tens of thousands?" Zhou Yu shook his head, "It's just that it will be more difficult for Kuai Yue to leave the city now."

    Gan Ning retracted his head, stuck out his tongue, and continued to lower his head and wipe the sword in his hand.

    Zhou Yu shook his head and closed his eyes.  Rubbing his temples vigorously, Zhou Yu couldn't help feeling that his head hurt.

    At this time, the person who was more troubled than Zhou Yu was Kuai Yue who was standing on the wall of Xiangyang.  The 10,000 elite soldiers Cai He brought out of the city this time were all young men recruited from the Xiangyang people. After the entire army was wiped out, half of the households in the city had died. The city of Xiangyang was suddenly deserted, and the sound of crying was loud.  In addition, after discovering that the number of defenders was insufficient, Kuai Yue issued a strict order that all men over the age of twelve in the city had to go to the city to defend. This bleak scene of wives and children scattered and families destroyed was nothing compared to the corpses littering the fields outside the city.  Not to mention giving in too much.

    But the above is not what bothers Kuai Yue the most. What really makes him flustered is that after Zhou Yu returned to the army, he pushed the camp to a place only a stone's throw away from Xiangyang City.  The range of the Jiangdong Army's crossbows was much higher than that of the Xiangyang defenders. For several days, the Jiangdong Army would fold their arrows and fire a salvo at the city every day.  In addition to the arrow shafts that were shot into the city, there was also a notice tied to the arrow shafts:

    Zhou Yu, the governor of Jiangdong, raised his eyebrows at Xiangyang Prefecture and announced to the world: Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou, is now ignorant and ignorant, causing harm to the people. He also abuses his official position and abuses the power of officials. Therefore, under the orders of the Han Wuhou and the rebellious general Sun Ce, I am here.  Come to conquer.  The former governor of Xiangyang, Kuai Yue, killed ten thousand soldiers in the city. Every time I think about this, my heart aches.  Now among the people in the city, if there is anyone who can offer the head of Kuai Yue, he will be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households.  If they continue to resist stubbornly, I will break out the stronghold and raise troops.  Soldiers are everywhere, and they are all dead.  Heaven and earth support each other, and ghosts and gods bless us.  Eliminate treachery and destroy foolishness and stubbornness.  Talking and laughing into the city, there is no mercy.  In the city, there are righteous husbands and chaste wives, filial sons and grandsons, righteous and good people, and honest and prudent officials. Do not panic and keep their jobs.  This is a special edict for everyone to know.

    When Kuai Yue was reading this notice in the prefect's office, a group of deputy generals were already kneeling on the ground in the hall, not even daring to raise their heads from beginning to end.  Kuai Yue glanced at the generals kneeling below and couldn't help feeling a little irritated.  These people were all his confidants who he had single-handedly promoted, but since Jiangdong's army invaded the country, their performance had really disappointed him.  However, thinking that he had to rely on these generals to defend the city, Kuai Yue suppressed his anger and said with a forced smile: "Zhou Yu, my son, has underestimated our talents in Jingzhou. Generals, do you have any good strategies to defeat the enemy?  You might as well talk and listen.¡±

    A lieutenant general walked forward tremblingly: "Master Taishou, basically everyone in the city has seen this letter. Now the people's morale in the city is floating, and the military's morale is unstable. I think this city cannot be defended, so it is better to abandon the city."  ¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡±

    "Bastard!" Kuai Yue didn't have the patience to continue listening, so he grabbed the inkstone on the desk and smashed it down.

    In his rage, Kuai Yue smashed the hard inkstone into pieces.  The deputy general was trembling with shock and kept kowtowing.  He knew that saying these words would probably anger Kuai Yue, but in the past few days, soldiers and civilians in the city had been constantly climbing over the high wall to surrender to the Jiangdong Army.  The lieutenant-general was full of words to excuse himself, but under Kuai Yue's anger, he couldn't say a word.

    "Abandon the city? Abandon the city for youWhere are you going to escape to?  Or are you going to abandon the city and beg for mercy from Zhou Yu?  "Kuai Yue slapped the table and cursed, "Who do you think Zhou Yu is? A comrade who wears the same pants as you and pays to drink and whore women together?  "

    Fu Xun, who had been standing behind Kuai Yue, stepped forward and whispered: "Prefect Kuai, there is no need to be angry. All generals are telling the truth."

    Fu Xun came to Xiangyang from Jiangling a few days ago. While bringing Liu Qi's order ordering Kuai Yue to defend Xiangyang, he also assisted him in defending the city as a supervisor.  Kuai Yue looked back at him, not wanting to be angry with the nominal supervisor, so he could only snort heavily and look for something else at hand that he could throw down to vent his anger.

    Fu Xun smiled faintly and waved to everyone in the hall: "Generals, please go down first. The military situation is urgent these days. Prefect Kuai will inevitably be a little anxious. Please don't take it to heart. Do your duty faithfully and you will be able to survive the current situation."  Difficulties.¡±

    When the generals heard what Fu Xun said, they all kowtowed as if they had been granted amnesty, and then crawled out of the prefect's office.  Fu Xun looked at the backs of everyone leaving, shook his head mockingly, and said: "Xidu, we are all officials in the same court, and they are your cronies, why should you be angry?"

    "My lord, you have also seen that in their words they clearly told me to abandon the city and surrender." Kuai Yue said bitterly, "I have been receiving salary from Jingzhou for a long time, how can I give Xiangyang away?"

    "There are no absolute enemies and no absolute friends in the world." Fu Xun still had a calm smile on his face, "Have you ever heard this sentence before?"

    Kuai Yue raised his head and glanced at him, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, if you have something to say, just say it. There is no need to beat around the bush."

    Fu Xun lowered his voice and said: "Friends and enemies can transform into each other. Maybe the friend you think will become your enemy in the next moment. In the same way, the mortal enemy you think may not become your enemy."  Your allies. The key to this is not the other party, but you."

    ¡°What Gongti means is Fake surrender!?¡±

    Fu Xun nodded and said coldly: "Yes, Yidu can write a letter of surrender first and send someone to deliver it to Zhou Yu. The letter of surrender uses the excuse of calming the people's hearts and implores him not to bring a large army into the city. We will wait in the city again  There are heavy troops ambushed on both sides of the gate. When Zhou Yu enters the city lightly armed with his simple servants, they will take advantage of his unpreparedness and ambush all around. They will certainly kill Zhou Yu's son. Now that Zhou Yu is dead, Jiangdong's army is leaderless and can be defeated with just one drum!"

    "Zhou Yu is an extremely sophisticated person, I'm afraid this plan won't be able to be hidden from him." Kuai Yue said worriedly.

    Fu Xun saluted solemnly and said with confidence: "Please write a letter of surrender immediately, the prefect, and I will personally deliver it to Zhou Yu's camp. With my sharp tongue, Zhou Yu will definitely fall into my scheme and lose his life."  Under Xiangyang City!"
