I was the emperor in the Three Kingdoms

Zhou Yu said,"This needs to be considered in the long term."

"Is there any long-term plan for this? The Yan army is almost at the gate of Pengcheng. Commander, please don’t forget that there are people from Wu State who are still staying in Pengcheng."

Zhou Yu said,"What I mean by this governor is not to take risks, not to rush in easily, but to be cautious. Maybe the Yan army is luring us out of the city, and their real purpose is to deal with us.

Cao Ang suddenly said from the side,"How about we attack Juling?""

"Attack Juling? Zhou

Yu was thoughtful, while Cao Hong looked at his nephew and asked,"What's the use of attacking Juling?""

Zhou Yu said,"This is also a good idea. The place where Gongsun Zan finally settled in Juling is Gongsun Zan's last lair. Without Juling, Gongsun Zan can be declared dead. If we besiege Juling, we will definitely allow Gongsun Zan's people to quickly return to defense, which can reduce a little pressure on Pengcheng. Even if we defeat Gongsun Zan and force Gongsun Zan to ask for help from the Yan army, we can also force the Yan army to return for help. This is..."

Zhou Yu wanted to say that this was the one who besieged Wei and rescued Zhao, but he remembered that Cao Hong, Cao Ang and the others were from Wei. Although this Wei was not that Wei, this word was inappropriate to say here.

Cao Hong also understood, and he said," Then attack Juling and send troops quickly."

After the decision was made, Guangling City was ready to send troops.

Cao Hong, Cao Ang and the others took all the 20,000 people this time, and Zhou Yu also personally led 20,000 people out of the city. A total of 40,000 people headed towards Juling.

On the Juling side, Gongsun Zan asked Gongsun Yue to lead five thousand people to follow Liu Xin to attack Pengcheng. He stayed here to guard Juling himself.

When Gongsun Zan received the enemy's message and led the army towards Juling , although he was a little panicked, he felt a lot more at ease when he remembered what Liu Xin sent someone to say to him.

Liu Xin asked him to guard Juling and hold off the Wu army for at least ten days.

There are still 30,000 people in Juling. Faced with the siege of the enemy's army, it is still possible to defend for ten days, but the problem is that the enemy's commander is Zhou Yu, and Gongsun Zan does not have that confidence. But now, Gongsun Zan can only bite the bullet and defend, although it is not He knows what Liu Xin is planning, but Gongsun Zan also knows that what Liu Xin is planning is not just Pengcheng or Guangling City. All he can do now is to listen to Liu Xin and do his duty.

As for other things Yes, Gongsun Zan was not qualified to know or participate in it.

Zhou Yu and Cao Hong led the army towards Juling and set up camp less than twenty miles away from Juling.

When they arrived here, the camp had not been built yet, Cao Hong Cao Ang wanted to launch an attack immediately, but Zhou Yu disagreed. He said,"You two, don't take risks in a hurry and act with caution.

Cao Ang asked strangely,"Is the Governor still afraid of something?""

Cao Hong said,"Yes, I asked about it when I came here. Juling only has about 30,000 people, less than 40,000 people. We have 40,000 people here, and Gongsun Zan's people are weaker than ours. At a point, don’t worry about them at all.

Zhou Yu said,"Don't worry about Gongsun Zan's people, but what about the people of Yan?"

Cao Hong said again,"People from Yan State?" Is there anyone else here?"

They have already found out this. The Yan State has also dispatched about 40,000 soldiers and horses, claiming to be a hundred thousand troops to attack Pengcheng. It is not far from Pengcheng now. Even if they want to come back at this time, it will take seven or eight days. Only then can they rush back.

If the Yan army comes back, the crisis in Pengcheng will be lifted. They will most likely have to retreat to Guangling City at that time, and the Yan army will be unable to do anything to them.

Therefore, both Cao Hong and Cao Ang felt that they should attack immediately and not delay here. Zhou Yu said,"The large force of the Yan army is indeed in the Pengcheng area now, but don't forget that this is not far from the prime minister, and there are also Yan troops staying in the prime minister."

Cao Hong sneered and said,"The soldiers and horses left by the Yan army are definitely not many, and they are not strong. If they dare to come, I will make them unable to come back. Zhou Yu said,"

So it's best to be careful.""
