As Jia Xu expected, the Jiangdong Army had few troops in the corner of the west wall and could not resist the sudden attack of Zang Ba's elite. In less than a stick of incense, Zang Ba led the elite troops to the city wall.

Ailang saw this scene from afar and couldn't help but be very happy and shouted, "Okay! The attack is coming!" Then he urgently ordered the frontal attack troops to step up the attack so that Zang Ba's troops could seize the city gate and enter the city in one fell swoop.

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred on the city wall in the west, and a raging flame suddenly ignited on the top of the city. The elites who climbed the city were immediately trapped in the sea of ​​fire and were sobbing strangely. Many people were panicked to avoid the flames, and the sound of falling from the city was heard. Zang Ba was also on fire, but he was still calm and calm, jumped to the wall, grabbed the burning rope and quickly slid down the city wall. Even a few soldiers rushed forward and used their battle robe to extinguish the flames on his body. The remaining nearly a thousand soldiers quickly retreated.

Seeing this, Ailang was shocked and angry, and kept greeting Zhou Yu's women. Annoyed, he rushed his army to attack and fought all day, but there was no progress.

That night, Ailang paced back and forth in the tent, looking very irritable.

Jia Xu couldn't help but sigh: "I really underestimated Zhou Yu! I didn't expect that he deliberately left a flaw but it was a trap!" Then he apologized to Ailang: "Because his subordinates failed to investigate the opponent's treacherous plan, General Zang Ba was seriously injured, and nearly a thousand elite soldiers were wiped out. Please punish the lord!"

Ai Lang waved his hand and said angrily: "What crime is cured? It's just that Zhou Yu has made a move! Damn, I must make him look good!" Thinking of Zang Ba's injuries, I was worried and said: "Go and see Zang Ba." As he said that, he had already walked outside the tent, and Jia Xu and his men quickly followed.

Ailang came to Zang Ba's military tent. The medical officer had just finished bandaging Zang Ba, but he saw circles of white cloth wrapped around Zang Ba's body, like a mummy.

When the medical officer saw Ailang coming in, he hurriedly bowed and said, "Lord!" When Zang Ba heard Ailang coming, he tried hard to sit up.

Seeing this, Ailang was startled and rushed forward to hold Zang Ba down, saying angrily: "Don't move!" "General!"

Ailang asked him to lie down and said, "Recover well!" Zang Ba was moved and said, "I'm not moving anymore."

Ailang turned around and asked the medical officer: "How is Zang Ba's injury?"

"Report to the lord, Zang Ba's injuries are very serious, but he is not in danger of life. One or two cultivation should be cured. But, just..." The medical officer looked like he was eager to speak but stopped.

Ailang said angrily: "It's just what?"

The medical officer hurriedly said: "It was only after healed the injury, the burning scar was reclaimed on his face and body, but it was difficult to remove it!"

When Ailang heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said angrily: "Isn't it just because he has become ugly? Men don't need to be beautiful! Scars are the glory of men!" This hit the hearts of the officers and soldiers present, and everyone showed excitement on their faces. Zang Ba couldn't help but say: "The General is right! Scars are our glory!"

Ailang came out of Zang Ba's military tent, and Jia Xu and others followed him. Ailang frowned and scolded: "Damn Zhou Yu, he is really cunning!"

At this moment, a personal soldier officer led a dusty scout. The personal soldier officer clasped his fists and said, "General, there is an emergency military situation." As soon as he finished speaking, the scout behind him immediately came forward and said, "General, Yang Feng, Han Xian, the two generals, were defeated by Huang Gai and Wu Jing outside Guangling City, and the remaining defeated generals were retreating to Gaoyou in the north."

Ailang was startled and shouted, "What did they do?" Then he asked, "How much did they lose?"

The scout said: "More than half of the loss!"

Ailang was very angry and cursed: "Isn't Yang Feng and Han Xian very powerful? Why are they beaten so badly by others?!"

Jia Xu said: "I'm afraid no wonder they are. The two subordinates are all surrendered Yuan Shujun. These officers and soldiers lack training and are depressed. It is normal for them to fight against the elite Jiangdong led by Huang Gai." Ai Lang only felt that there was nowhere to vent his anger.

The scout said again: "There is also Jiangnan. The subordinates have heard from Jiangnan that Danyang County and Wu County have been captured by Sun Ce. Now only Liu Yao's general Taishi Ci leads five thousand troops to resist in Dantu."

Ailang felt unbelievable and shouted, "Why is it so fast? Liu Yao also has 50,000 or 60,000 people and horses. Are they all pigs? Even if it is a pig, 50,000 or 60,000 pigs, it would be impossible to catch them all in such a short time!"

The scout said: "I heard that Sun Ben suddenly turned against him during the Battle of Danyang and attacked Sun Ce's army with Liu Yao's army and Liu Yao's army were defeated and lost. Danyang's army!..."

Ailang asked angrily: "Why did that Sun Ben do this?"

The scout said: "I heard that Sun Ben is Sun Ce's cousin, probably because of this."

Ai Lang couldn't help but curse, "Liu Yao is really an idiot! Why should we use the Sun family's relatives?" Jia Xu said, "It's no wonder Liu Yao. I have heard of Sun Ben. Although he was a cousin with Sun Ce, he defected to Yuan Shu back then. He didn't hear that he had contact with Sun Jian and his son. Moreover, Liu Yao treated Sun Ben very well and married his daughter to him. With such favor, Liu Yao probably never dreamed that he would betray him."

Ailang smiled and asked the scout again: "How did Wujun be compromised by Sun Ce?"

The scout said: "I heard that Sun Ce and Sun Ben led a large army to the city of Wujun. Sun Ben used a secret letter to instigate the garrison in the city. The garrison opened the city gate at night, and Sun Ce and Sun Ben captured Wujun!"

Jia Xu asked, "Then what? Where is Liu Yao now? Where is Sun Ce and Sun Ben's army?"

"I heard that Liu Yao was captured, but the specific situation is not clear. After Sun Ce captured Wu County, he ordered Sun Ben to lead the surrendered army to clear the local collapsed Liu Yao's army. He himself led the main force in Jiangdong to go north to fight Taishici. I heard that the war was going on very fiercely. Although Taishici didn't have many troops, he resisted Sun Ce's fierce attack."

Jia Xu said to Ailang: "Lord, it seems that Taishici is not a simple person. But with his limited troops and only an isolated city, I am afraid he won't last long."

Ailang said anxiously: "If Sun Ce conquered Taishici and rushed to Lujiang, we will be in great trouble!"

At this moment, a personal soldier rushed to report: "Report to the General, General Lei Bo arrived with food and grass." Ai Lang said impatiently: "I understand!"

Jia Xu suddenly said, "Lord, there is a way to seize Lujiang."
