Chapter 853: Cao Jun Arrives
"Would I call you General Sun Shang or Miss Sun Shangxiang?" Wu Shun asked the restrained Sun Shangxiang.
"Are you here to save me?" Sun Shangxiang asked.
When she was in danger, Wu Shun happened to come to save her, and the little girl thought of many things.
"After the personal guard camp kills Cao's army, let Lu Meng send you back to Jiangdong!" Wu Shun said.
Did you come to save her specifically? In fact, it was just by the way. The reason was that Wu Shun wanted to kill the enemy himself.
Two soldiers were left to look at Sun Shangxiang, and Wu Shun once again broke into the Cao army's crowd. The five thousand vanguards of Cao's army were no match for the two thousand personal guards. With the shock of the beast cavalry, Cao's army had already fled.
It was not very meaningful to chase a vanguard army. Knowing that Cao Hong had arrived, he could stay the Jiangdong Army successfully, and Wu led his soldiers back.
"Lu Meng, does your lord know that his sister ran out?" Wu Shun asked.
"General, the lord doesn't know..." Lu Meng replied. Sun Shangxiang came secretly, and it was only when Sun Quan knew about it.
At this time, Lu Meng certainly would not tell the truth.
"Send someone to send your eldest lady back to Jiangdong." Wu Shundao.
"Don't worry, General, the Grand Commander will make arrangements." Lu Meng could not make decisions. In Xuzhou, only Zhou Yu could decide everything big and big.
"I won't go back..." Sun Shangxiang said angrily.
I finally got out, but I didn’t know how to do it.
It is said that the Wuling Army is fighting so much. He has only seen cavalry and other famous legions, but she has never seen them.
Sun Shangxiang was angry there and no one paid attention to her. Lu Meng was her general and dared not say much.
Wu Shun was too lazy to say that he would not return anyway. By chance, he saved himself once, but Wu Shun would not have the chance to lead his troops to kill the enemy next time.
Halfway through the way, a large army appeared in front of the guard camp.
"alert!"
Wu Shun ordered that the soldiers immediately stopped. Seeing this, the Jiangdong Army quickly assembled into a formation.
"Lord, it's the White Tiger Legion!"
Qu A had good eyesight, and he saw the flag opposite him clearly.
"White Tiger Legion, why are they here?" Wu Shun was a little confused. Twenty thousand people were dispatched. Who would be scared to death with such a large battle?
When Zhang Xiong came close, Wu Shun couldn't help asking: "Second brother, you led the army out of the camp, but what mission did the military advisor give?"
"Brother, how can you not call me to kill Cao's army? " Zhang Xiong said.
I was still feeling a little wronged, but after seeing Wu Shun, the injustice disappeared, and Zhang Xiong would not really have any objections to Wu Shun.
"Second brother, the personal guard camp is a cavalry and runs fast. The vanguard of Cao's army has been defeated, but Cao Ren has arrived and went back to discuss it. Liu Bei has helped him, and it is difficult to fight Xuzhou City."
After Wu Shun finished speaking, he led the army back.
The White Tiger Legion mobilized the troops, but it turned out to be a waste of time! However, in the minds of the soldiers, as long as Wu Shun is safe, it is more important than anything else.
Back at the camp, Wu Shun ordered the drums to gather the generals, and even sent people to notify Zhou Yu. Soon the generals and counselors of the Wuling Army gathered in the general's tent. Of course, Zhou Yu also came.
Attacking Xuzhou City was one of the purposes of this war. Now that Cao Hong has arrived, the difficulty has increased a lot.
"I have to thank the general for his righteous rescue today, otherwise none of the soldiers surrounded by our Jiangdong Army might be able to escape." Zhou Yu thanked sincerely.
"When Gongjin is out, we are allies, so we should watch over each other. I believe that one day our Wuling army will fall into a siege, and the Jiangdong army will not sit idly by." Wu Shun said.
"This is natural!" Zhou Yu answered quickly.
"General, I wonder how many soldiers Cao Hong brought? How is the general ready to deal with it?" Zhou Yu asked.
"According to the scout report, Cao Tao sent 30,000 troops this time, led by General Cao Hong. As for how to deal with it, there was actually not much adjustment. It was just that Jiangdong led to various parts of Xuzhou and might be counterattacked by Cao's army." Wu Shundao.
When Cao Hong came, Liu Bei still wanted to hide in the city. After 30,000 people were added, Liu Bei did not have the courage to fight the Wuling Army.
Therefore, the Cao army's entry into Xuzhou did not have a great impact on the Wuling Army, but for the Jiangdong Army, the impact was a bit great.
The Cao army has cavalry. If they dare to attack cities and plunder land without scrupulously, the Cao army will not sit idly by. If they are really caught by the Cao army's cavalry, the Jiangdong army will not be able to escape.
"Since Cao's army has reached the level, Xuzhou City's defense will be stronger. How will the general be prepared to capture Xuzhou?"
The Jiangdong Army was not in a good situation, but it was not difficult for Zhou Yu. He understood that as long as the Wuling Army was willing to add pressure to Xuzhou City, they would still do whatever they wanted.
Since the last strong attack, the Wuling Army has not organized any decent siege battles, which is what Zhou Yu is really worried about.
The Wuling Army cannot afford the energy consumption, but the Jiangdong Army cannot afford it. Compared with Yizhou's logistics, Jiangdong's supply is insufficient.
This is all because of the Wuling Army's attack on Jiangxia. Many of their food and supplies were swallowed up by the Wuling Army.
Zhou Yu asked for it, but was told that the Wuling Army did not find the large amount of food and grass that Zhou Yu mentioned.
What can Zhou Yu do if the Wuling Army cheats on him?
Since Sun Ce's accident, Jiangdong has been in a turbulent tide. Now Sun Quan has not completely taken power. He needs Yizhou as an ally to shock those inside Jiangdong.
Therefore, when Wuling Army attacked Xuzhou, Jiangdong gritted his teeth and sent 30,000 troops to assist the boxing, and he still brought the food and supplies himself...
"Gongjin, Liu Bei used the people to defend the city, which made our army afraid of being attacked. There is no good way to attack the city at present. Cao Hong's arrival can help Liu Bei to raise confidence and take the initiative to fight." Wu Shun said.
If the problem of Liu Bei using the people to defend the city in one day, the Wuling army would not attack the city in one day.
In comparison, Zhou Yu had no good suggestions. If he was from Wu Shun's perspective, he felt that he would order the city to be broken without hesitation.
Compared with the lives of some people, the latter is significantly more valuable than the capture of Xuzhou.
However, the Wuling Army's measurement of value is different from that of Zhou Yu.
"Lord, the black-clothed guard has sneaked into the city. After a while, the effect will appear." Guo Jia said.
There is no better way to break the city, so Wu Shun had long authorized Guo Jia to send people in to spread rumors. It was just to highlight the effect that the Black Guard had not started to take action.
"Well, we can afford to wait." No matter how powerful the enemy is, it cannot stop the internal collapse, not to mention that Liu Bei's Xuzhou army was not strong.
Liu Bei has been governing in Xuzhou over the years, and the lives of the people have not changed much. It is just a little relaxed.
