After hearing Guan Yu's words, Zhang Fei suddenly realized and couldn't help but praise him, "Second brother, you think so much!"

Guan Yu laughed and scolded, "Third brother, are you praising me?" Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Of course!" Then he said with a suspicion: "I don't believe that Cai Mao can come up with such a strategy to divide the troops and attack. This must be Sun Jian's idea, and Cai Mao took it over as a strategy. It's really shameless!" Guan Yu smiled, and Liu Bei shouted, "Third brother, don't talk nonsense!" Zhang Fei curled his lips, looking disapproving.

The army headed north and two days later to the east bank of Shaobi. The so-called Shaobi, about sixty or seventy miles south of Shouchun, was actually a very famous water conservancy project in ancient times. According to legend, in the Spring and Autumn Period, Sun Shuao, the prime minister of Chu, led the Huai River tributary, into the Baishaoting Lake, forming a vast water surface of more than a hundred miles, making hundreds of miles of Shouchun a rich land of fish and rice. The reason why Yuan Shu set up his capital in Shouchun was because he was attracted by the rich environment here, but he made the people live in poverty. It was no one else.

The army stopped here, and Sun Ce came to Cai Mao. Cai Mao was puzzled by the stopping of the army. Seeing Sun Ce coming, he hurriedly asked, "Young Master, why did you stop moving forward?"

Sun Ce smiled and said, "Grandmaster, division of troops to attack Shouchun is just one of the strategies. In fact, our real purpose is to surround Shouchun and attack Hefei reinforcements." Cai Mao widened his eyes and did not understand for a while.

Sun Ce looked at the vast Shaopi in the west, then at the rolling hills in the east, and said, "This is the only way for the enemy to go north to reinforce. I am going to ask Zhou Tai to lead 10,000 elite troops to ambush here, and ask the Grand Commander to leave some troops to ambush here."

Cai Mao understood the other party's plan at this time, and was amazed secretly, but his face was as calm as usual, as if I had known it a long time ago. Cai Mao called his younger brother Cai Zhong and ordered, "You lead the 5,000 infantry troops to ambush here with General Zhou Tai." Cai Zhong was puzzled and asked with his fists: "Brother, what's the point?" Cai Mao shouted angrily: "Idiot, don't you know this. We have besieged Shouchun, and the enemy in Hefei must send troops to support us. At that time, you will be here to annihilate them in one fell swoop!" Cai Zhong's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but exclaim: "Brother is such a clever plan!"

When Sun Ce heard this, he smiled and didn't tell the difference. He smiled and said to Cai Mao: "Grandmaster, General Zhou Tai has been in Huainan and is very familiar with the terrain of this area. Why don't you let Zhou Tai be the commander of the ambush troops? What do you think?"

Cai Mao didn't care much about this. What he cared about was to seize Shouchun and seek credit from his brother-in-law. When he heard Sun Ce's words, he nodded and said, "Okay. That's it." Cai Zhong was not happy, but since Cai Mao had already decided, he didn't dare to say anything.

Soon after, the army re-emerged, while the 10,000 elite Jiangdong Army led by Zhou Tai and the 5,000 Liu Biao Army led by Cai Zhong remained.

Not long after, the coalition troops arrived at the city of Shouchun. At this time, the gate of Shouchun was already closed, and the soldiers on the city wall were arranged in a tight position. Now the two were responsible for guarding Shouchun, with less than 20,000 troops.

Sun Ce ran to the city gate and shouted, "I am Sun Ce from Jiangdong, and you and others, who dares to come out to die?"

Ju Yi stood on the city gate tower and frowned at Sun Ce. The war general Li Feng next to him asked for a fight: "General, the last general is willing to kill his head and offer it to his command!" Li Feng, a general under Yuan Shu, who had previously occupied Huainan, surrendered to Ai Lang. His status has been much lower than before when he was under Yuan Shu, and he has always wanted to find an opportunity to prove his value.

Ju Yi shook his head and said, "No. Sun Ce is very skilled in martial arts and is known as a little overlord. All the generals in the city are not his enemies." Li Feng was very annoyed and couldn't help but say, "The general is afraid of him, but the last general is not afraid!" Ju Yi glanced at Li Feng and said seriously: "The entire army cannot fight. This is a military order. If you dare to disobey the military order, even if you win, you will be severely punished and not lend it to him!" Li Feng was very depressed, thinking that Ju Yi was worried that he would make contributions to kill the enemy and make contributions, so he deliberately made things difficult for him.

Sun Ce shouted outside the city for a long time, and his voice was hoarse, but he saw that the city gate was always closed and no one came out to respond. He cursed: "It turns out that Lu Bu's subordinates are all turtles that are afraid of death! Since he is so afraid of death, he should open the city gate early to surrender! This general can guarantee that you can spare your life!" Sun Jianjun and Cai Maojun burst into laughter. Lu Bu's officers and soldiers were indignant, but the military order was in the face, but they could only endure it.

Seeing that his opponent didn't go to fight, Sun Ce had no choice but to turn his horse and run back to his army, shouting, "These turtle grandsons of Lu Bu are as timid as mice and dare not fight! Let's let them go, rest for a night and then seize Shouchun in one fell swoop!" The soldiers of the coalition army shouted one after another, and their morale was greatly boosted. The coalition temporarily retreated, set up camps, and began to rush to make various siege equipment.

Li Feng rushed to the hall of the capital and saw Ju Yi looking at the map. He immediately stepped forward and asked for a fight: "General, the enemy is tired from afar. If our army attacks tonight, we will definitely win a great victory! The last general is not talented, please lead the army to attack!" Ju Yi said: "It is very rare for you to have this heart. But Sun Ce and his wise and brave all over the body, how could he not beware of our army's sneak attack? I can assert that if he attacks, he will definitely be defeated! The whole army should not move rashly!" Li Feng felt that Ju Yi was simply a timid and incompetent turtle with his head shrunk, and turned around and left.

Li Feng came to the military camp and mobilized 3,000 troops to prepare for attack. An officer said with some concern: "General, General Ju Yi has an order. The entire army must guard against the enemy and not fight without authorization. If General Ju Yi knows about this, I am afraid..." Li Feng said with no angrily: "I am afraid that he will do much! When I followed the general, he was still in Yuan Shao's army, and he deserves to instruct me. When this general defeated Sun Ce in one fell swoop, he would immediately complain to the general. At that time, his position was not guaranteed, what else can he do to me?" Then he ordered: "The whole army obeys the order and follow me to attack!" The officers looked at each other, and did not dare to disobey the military order, and they all held their fists to respond.

Ju Yi was standing in front of the map thinking about the current situation between the two sides. Ju Su hurriedly arrived and said anxiously: "It's not good General Ju Yi! Just now, the city gate came to report that General Li Feng led his three thousand men out of the south gate! He must be going to raid the enemy!"

Ju Yi was shocked and furious, shouting, "Why didn't the captain of the city gate stop him?" Ju Su said, "The captain of the city gate is low and has no choice but to stop Li Feng! Li Feng is eager to make contributions, but Sun Ce is not easy to be with him, so he must be prepared. Li Feng will definitely be in danger of going there!"

Ju Yi thought for a moment and hurriedly called his personal soldiers and shouted, "Immediately send an order to gather in the black-clothed camp and prepare to fight!" The personal soldiers rushed down with a loud voice. The black-clothed camp, Ju Yi trained an elite force with his own philosophy,

Ju Su said anxiously: "Ju Yi, are you going to fight? This is an unwise move! If what I expected, Sun Ce decided not to destroy Li Feng's troops in one fell swoop, but to use it as bait to lure our army to attack and rescue. He would destroy our army as much as possible in the wild! It would be much easier to attack the city later! For the current plan, it would be to resist the city's persistence, and Li Feng and the others had to leave it to fate!"

Ju Yi said resolutely: "No! Seeing that his comrades fell into death and refused to save him, it was not a real man's job!" Ju Su couldn't help but feel shocked.

Ju Yi said to Ju Su, "Don't worry. I only took the black-clothed camp to pick me up. Sir, guard the city. If you don't see me coming to the city, you must never open the city gate!" Ju Su sighed, nodded, and said, "General Yibo Yuntian, what else can I say!" Then he clasped his fists and said, "General, don't worry! With me here, the city will never fall!" Ju Yi nodded.

At this time, the personal soldiers rushed in, clasped their fists and said, "General, the black-clothed camp has gathered together!"

Ju Yi immediately left the hall. At this time, two thousand officers and soldiers wearing black wallets, black cloaks, bows, arrows and shields, and long swords were gathered in the open space in front of the hall. Two thousand officers and soldiers were silent, as dark as the night. Ju Yi glanced at the soldiers. At this time, a personal soldier led Ju Yi's mount, Ju Yi turned over the horse and shouted loudly, "Go!" Then he ran out of the capital, and the two thousand officers and soldiers of the black-clothed camp quickly followed and disappeared at the gate. Ju Su watched them leave, and then led a few personal soldiers to the city gate tower. Looking out of the city, he could not see Ju Yi and the officers and soldiers of the black-clothed camp. It was probably that the officers and soldiers of the black-clothed camp were invisible in the night.

Suddenly, the sound of earth-shaking war drums came from the camp of the Allied Forces outside the city, and the shouts of the army and the fierce fighting sounds. From a distance, the lights flashed and the figures were everywhere. Ju Su frowned and murmured: "It's true! Sun Ce had long expected that there would be a raid!"

Not long ago, Li Feng led 3,000 officers and soldiers to the outside of Sun Jian's army camp. Seeing the silence in the camp, Sun Ce was indeed unprepared and excited, so he rushed into the enemy camp. However, as soon as he entered the enemy camp, there were suddenly earth-shaking shouts and war drums. Before he could react, dense rain of arrows flew from three sides. The officers and soldiers were caught off guard and were shot down countless times! Then the torch shone the light into the night, and more than 10,000 enemy troops surrounded them from all directions.

Li Feng was shocked and hurriedly led the officers and soldiers to turn around and break through. At this time, Sun Ce had already led thousands of troops to block their retreat. Li Feng led his army to attack fiercely, but countless spears flew towards him. The officers and soldiers who rushed in front were shot down. Li Feng himself was shot in the arm, and blood was poured out! However, the officers and soldiers of Lu Bu were very fierce and rushed forward and crashed into the row of shield walls formed by the opponent! The officers and soldiers waved their swords and guns and attacked fiercely, with a roar. The swords and guns hit the shields and made a tingling sound, but they could not hurt the enemy's hair behind the shield wall at all!
