It took Yuan Jun a full night's work to clean up the battlefield, mainly because the fire was difficult to extinguish. In this battle, the entire 5,000 Jingzhou army was wiped out, and Yuan Jun surrendered more than 2,000 people. The rest were all killed, and most of them died in the fire. It was extremely tragic. At dawn, Zhou Tai came to see Zhou Yu. "General! Our army won a complete victory in this battle, and all five thousand Jingzhou troops were wiped out." Zhou Tai said happily. After a pause, Zhou Tai said with admiration: "The general is really a master of calculations! Before the expedition, the general brought a lot of Jingzhou army soldiers. I didn't know what they were used for. It turned out that the general had already planned everything." Zhou Yu waved his hand and said: "Bring them with you." Those soldiers and armor are indeed meant to confuse the enemy, but how to implement it will be decided after arriving here. "This strategy is similar to the previous attack on Chaisang. The difference is that the attack on Chaisang is a disguise. They became common people, and this time they were disguised as soldiers and horses of Jingzhou. Zhou Yu first ordered people to pretend to be Su Fei's messengers and go to the Jingzhou military camp. He lied about the arrival of reinforcements and lured them to Yuan Jun's camp. The Jingzhou army was short of food and could not last long. Even if he had doubts, he would take the risk. However, in order to strengthen the Jingzhou Army's resolve, Zhou Yu also made some arrangements. First, Zhou Yu ordered Zhou Tai to lead a group of troops, all wearing Jingzhou army armor, and found a person who looked similar to Su Fei to pretend to be Su Fei. As expected, the Jingzhou Army sent people to find out the truth. The night was hazy, and the appearance of the two sides was similar. The fake Su Fei easily got through. After seeing "Su Fei", the Jingzhou Army was convinced and without any doubts, they rushed directly into the Yuan Army's camp. In the camp, Zhou Yu had ordered his people to hide a large amount of kerosene, sulfur and other fire starters in advance. He was just waiting for the Jingzhou army to enter, and the hidden archers and crossbowmen around them fired rockets together. So, it¡¯s done. This plan is interconnected, seemingly simple, but actually difficult. As long as one of the links has an accident and is discovered by the enemy, it will completely fail. Zhou Tai said: "Even so, the general is great. If the general didn't tell me, I, old Zhou, would have been deceived." "Haha!" Zhou Yu chuckled and said, "Okay! Don't talk about this, I have sent an envoy. , Inform General He Qi of the situation on the other side. I think General He Qi will cross over soon. With General He Qi's help, we will be invincible." "Then shall we stay here to receive him? "Introduce General Qi's troops and horses?" Zhou Tai asked. "No!" Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "We will go back to Chaisang first! Count the days, Jiangxia reinforcements are coming soon. Chaisang is our foundation, there is no room for failure, we need to prepare early!" "Okay! I will pass on the order and order the troops to prepare and return to Chaisang." Zhou Tai said loudly. "Yeah! Go ahead." Zhou Yu nodded. Zhou Tai clasped his fists and turned around to leave the tent. After Zhou Tai left, Zhou Yu said to himself: "What will follow is a fierce battle!" On the east bank of Poyang Lake, 10,000 Yuan troops were stationed here, waiting for orders. In the main tent, He Qi sighed, with a depressed look on his face. When He Qi first took this post, he was very excited, thinking that Yuan Shu planned to send him across Poyang Lake to attack Chaisang. This was a huge task, and He Qi was naturally delighted, thinking that after accomplishing great feats, he would have great success. Unfortunately, there was no news from Yuan Shu as soon as he left, as if he had forgotten He Qi, and there was no order to march for a long time. "If I had known this, it would have been better to go to Yuzhang City." He Qi complained. Suddenly, a long roar was heard outside the tent. "Report!" The herald broke into the tent. He Qi put away his thoughts and asked casually: "What's the matter?" "Report to the general! The lord's envoy has arrived and has something to convey." The messenger said. "Huh?" He Qi was stunned at first, then he was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Please come in quickly." "No!" The herald took the order and left. After a while, the herald came to the tent with Yuan Shu's envoy. "What are your orders, my lord?" He Qi asked nervously. "My lord has an order! The general is ordered to be ready to cross Poyang Lake and rush to Chaisang." The messenger said. "Huh?" He Qi keenly noticed something wrong in the envoy's words and said in confusion: "Rush to Chaisang? Aren't you going to capture Chaisang?" "My lord has something to say. Chaisang has been captured by General Zhou Yu, and he ordered the general to go and assist." Defend the city," the messenger explained. "What? Chaisang has been captured?" He Qi was shocked. It wasn't that he didn't want Yuan Shu to capture Chaisang, but it was just too sudden and unacceptable. He Qi¡¯s faceUncertain, He Qi took a deep look at the envoy and asked: "Where is the lord marching from? Why do I know nothing about this?" Obviously, He Qi had some doubts about the authenticity of the envoy. "Could it be a trick by the enemy?" He Qi guessed. The envoy did not hear the distrust in He Qi's words, and said honestly: "General Zhou Yu sent troops from Chaohu, went down the river, and captured Chaisang in one fell swoop. This matter was extremely secretive, and even the generals around the lord did not "I know." "Oh!" He Qi suddenly realized that he came from Dajiang. No wonder he didn't know. At this time, He Qi finally realized that Yuan Shu ordered him to station troops here not because he wanted him to capture Chaisang, but to confuse Liu Yao and others. "Alas! It turned out to be a suspicious soldier." He Qi felt disappointed. After thinking about it, He Qi asked curiously: "Who is Zhou Yu?" "This my subordinates don't know, I only know that General Zhou seems to be a navy general." The envoy said. "General of the navy? I see, I didn't expect that my lord had already formed a navy." He Qi's face showed relief. It turned out to be a navy. No wonder they came along the river. The envoy continued: "My lord ordered the general to be ready at all times. When General Zhou receives news from the other side, he will march immediately. After arriving at Chaisang, the general will obey General Zhou's orders to act." He Qi stood up and faced the direction of Yuzhang City from a distance, clasping his fists. He said: "General, take your orders!" As soon as he finished speaking, another loud roar came from outside the tent. "Report!" "Why are you in such a hurry today?" He Qi joked in his heart and asked, "What's the matter?" "There is a man who claims to be the envoy of General Zhou Yu and says he has something important to tell me." "Here he comes!" He Qi Qi's eyes lit up and he waved, "Come in quickly." "No!" After a while, envoy Zhou Yu entered the tent, bowed and said, "Meet the general!" "No courtesy!" He Qi waved his hand. The messenger stood up and stood still. "What is General Zhou's order?" He Qi asked. "General Zhou has wiped out the Jingzhou soldiers and horses by Poyang Lake. I hope General Zhou will arrive at Chaisang as soon as possible to help defend the city." "What a fast speed!" He Qi was secretly surprised, thought for a moment, and asked: "General Zhou has already Just take Chaisang and guard the city. It should be innocuous when our army arrives. Why be so anxious? " "The Jiangxia army is coming soon. General Zhou is afraid of losing something. Please send troops as soon as possible." "What? "He Qi was shocked, turned to the envoy Yuan Shu, and asked: "Has the Lord ever known about this?" "This I don't know." He Qi frowned for a moment, and said: "Please do this quickly. Tell the lord what happened so that he can be prepared." "After a pause, he turned to Zhou Yu's envoy and said seriously: "If you report back to General Zhou, I will immediately order the army to set off for Chaisang to reassure him." "Nuo! " "No!" Both of them accepted the order. After all the envoys left, He Qi immediately ordered the army to prepare food, grass and ordnance, and prepare to set off tomorrow. The next day, He Qi led an army of 10,000 people to board the ship and sailed to the other side. ¡¡
