"Then let’s take action as the Grand Governor said."

After everyone discussed it, they decided to send out about 10,000 men to hold Zhao Yun down. According to the intelligence obtained, the number of men and horses Zhao Yun brought this time was only 10,000.

Apart from the soldiers and horses guarding the camp, Zhao Yun could The soldiers and horses brought were not many, ten thousand were enough.

Cao Hong led Quan Cong and He Qi, the two generals sent by Zhou Yu, to deal with Zhao Yun and prevent Zhao Yun from interfering with the coalition's siege.

Zhou Yu was commanding the soldiers Launching the attack on Juling, a steady stream of soldiers were like ants, with the help of newly-made siege equipment. They rushed cars and rammed doors, climbed ladders to climb the city, and suppressed the well railings. The coalition's offensive was wave after wave. Gongsun Zan of Juling felt great pressure.

Gongsun Zan's relatives were in command and commanded his soldiers to constantly resist the attacks of the coalition forces. The two sides fought fiercely. From the afternoon to the evening, the coalition forces did not capture Juling, but gave Juling a victory. Gongsun Zan caused a lot of casualties. After all, the coalition soldiers were much stronger than Gongsun Zan's soldiers. The battle was fierce on Zhou Yu's side, but there was no movement on Cao Hong's side because Zhao Yun did not come to interfere with the coalition forces. According to the news, Zhao Yun didn't even leave the camp, so he took his people there without any movement.

What happened? Zhou Yu and Cao Hong were surprised.

Zhou Yu asked,"Zhao Yun really didn't send out troops?""

Cao Hong also said depressedly,"No, it's strange. What's going on?"Cao Hong waited stupidly for a whole day today, but Zhao Yun didn't come, not even a few spies. It seems that Zhao Yun didn't know that they were going to attack Juling, but this is impossible. What does

Zhao Yun want to do? It's not just Cao Hong. , even Zhou Yu is thinking about it. It stands to reason that the purpose of Zhao Yun's appearance here is to contain the coalition forces, help Gongsun Zan share the pressure, and allow Gongsun Zan to better guard Juling.

Today, the coalition forces stormed Juling, but Zhao Yun did not appear. This behavior is very abnormal and completely different from before.

In the past, even if the coalition forces were testing the attack, Zhao Yun would come out, but he did not come out today. This had to make Zhou Yu and others doubt whether Zhao Yun was brewing some conspiracy.

They thought I couldn't figure it out. I thought about it for a long time, but in the end I couldn't come up with a reason.

Finally, Zhou Yu said,"Send more people to guard Zhao Yun to see what he wants to do. If there is any trouble, report it back immediately.

Cao Ang asked,"Then, is it an attack if we go tomorrow?""

Cao Ang's question made both Zhou Yu and Cao Hong stunned for a moment, but Cao Hong thought for a moment and said,"Of course we have to continue the attack. It would be best if Zhao Yun didn't interfere. We can put more pressure on Gongsun Zan, and we can also let Gongsun Zan know that even Zhao Yun will not help him now. It would be best if Juling could be captured. Then Juling would be captured directly and Gongsun Zan would be destroyed. Zhou

Yu had a different opinion. He said,"It's not appropriate. If we attack by force, the losses will be too great and it's not worth it." Even if Juling can be captured by force, the loss of soldiers will be too great. Once Princess Ninghe brings her people back, how can we defend it?"

Although they were able to cause a lot of damage to Gongsun Zan today, Zhou Yu and the others did not feel comfortable. The number of people they lost was almost the same as that of Gongsun Zan.

After all, they were the attacking side, and Gongsun Zan's people could rely on the city wall to defend them. It caused a lot of damage.

Zhou Yu meant that the loss of success was too great and not worth it. It was better to continue to maintain an offensive posture here and create pressure on Gongsun Zan.

Zhou Yu added,"We captured Juling, and Princess Ninghe There will be no point for her to return aid. By then, she may simply make up her mind to take down Pengcheng, which is not in line with our purpose."

The purpose of the coalition forces coming here is to force Liu Xin to retreat, return to Juling, and resolve the danger in Pengcheng.

If they defeat Junlin, then there will be no point for Liu Xin to return to aid, and Pengcheng will still be in danger. In.

Cao Hong said,"In this case, although we won't attack by force, we can continue to harass Ju Ling tentatively, and at the same time, we still have to see what Zhao Yun wants to do. The general did not believe that Zhao Yun would really watch Ju Ling fall."

Zhou Yu nodded,"This method is feasible."
