Zhu Huan now believed that Wu Qi really had the possibility of conquering Spring Valley. It turned out that he had found out the news that Cao's army was about to withdraw. But why didn't this poor guy tell him earlier?

The top priority is to conquer Chungu and at the same time block the news that Cao's army is about to retreat, so as not to attract Li Qi's attention.

Therefore, Zhu Huan led his army forward, all kinds of siege equipment were pushed under the tower, arrows were fired, and drums were beating with thunder.

Le Jin deliberately attracted Jiangdong soldiers to attack the city this time, so defensive measures were in place. The defenders obviously had a natural geographical advantage, so they repelled Jiangdong soldiers' attacks time and time again.

Just when Zhu Huan was confident about conquering Spring Valley, Wu Qi hesitated.

Is this so different from what I expected?

Didn't Cao Wei want to make a good alliance with Jiangdong and take the initiative to give up the city? Why was there such stubborn resistance?

Wu Qi even believed that he had fallen into Le Jin's trap: Le Jin had no intention of giving up the city at all, but deceived himself in an attempt to eliminate the main force of the Jiangdong soldiers.

But if he retreats now, Le Jin might take advantage of the situation and rush out. If his formation is in chaos and he doesn't have many people, he might be captured alive again.

Just when Wu Qi was extremely entangled, Zhu Huan led his army to kill him.

Wu Qi was overjoyed and said: "General Xiu Mu has arrived at just the right time. This is the critical moment to conquer Spring Valley. It is fitting that General Xiu Mu will make such a great contribution!"

Zhu Huan waved his command flag and ordered a group of soldiers to push the manhole railing and push under the city tower. At the same time, he asked Wu Qi: "Isn't Wu Xiaowei aware of the defenses in the city? I should tell Zhu Huan to avoid unnecessary casualties."

Wu Qi said casually: "This city wall is the weakest point in Spring Valley. However, our army has too few troops and has been unable to conquer it, which gave Cao Jun enough time to mobilize the defense troops from other places."

Zhu Huan glanced at Wu Qi and thought that he was very good at blaming the blame. Didn't he just blame himself and Xu Sheng for not fully cooperating with him?

But why did this poor guy still keep silent about the news that Cao's army was about to withdraw?

Zhu Huan said: "So, the defense in other places is weak?"

Wu Qi was excited and thought of a good opportunity, so he said to Zhu Huan: "What General Xiu Mu said is absolutely true. I will leave it to General Xiu Mu to lead the enemy's main force here, and I will lead my troops to the rear to attack their weak point.

"

Zhu Huan: "..."

Although he is not willing to let Wu Qi take the big hit, in all honesty, his own army is more reliable than Wu Qi in attracting firepower here. Wu Qi has fewer troops, so he is more advantageous in speed and stealth when attacking the rear.

Advantage.

Zhu Huan was relatively clear on the important matter of taking over Spring Valley City, so he withstood the stone on the tower and allowed Wu Qi to retreat.

Wu Qi was so happy that Zhu Huan withstood the pressure. After retreating, he really retreated...

In other words, he did not attack the weak points of Chuntu at all - because in Wu Qi's view, he had fallen into Le Jin's trap, and there would be no weak points in Chungu at all.

The so-called "one general is incompetent and the three armies are exhausted" was perfectly explained by Wu Qi.

But on top of the Spring Valley Tower, Le Jin was wondering: Ni Ma Jiangdong's soldiers have been attacking here for a long time, why is there no movement from Li Qi? Are all the spies dead?

After investigation, it was not that all of Li Qi's spies were dead, but that all of Li Qi's and Le Jin's spies were dead!

Le Jin ordered Zang Ba to arrange the ships needed for the retreat along the river, and deliberately leaked the news. The purpose was to attract Li Qi's attention. However, the people who deliberately leaked the news, including the spies sent by Li Qi to inquire about the surrounding news,

They were all intercepted and killed by Zhu Huan's ambush troops. Therefore, Li Qi had no idea that Cao's army was about to withdraw.

Zang Ba asked Le Jin: "The preparations for retreat have been completed. Do you want to withdraw the troops?"

Le Jin said angrily: "Our withdrawal has already caused a great loss. If we cannot use the withdrawal to provoke a conflict between Li Qi and Sun Quan, this Jiangdong campaign will be completely in vain."

Haozhou said: "But the Crown Prince has a clear order from the general, asking us to withdraw our defense on the north bank, so that Li Qi and Sun Quan will attack each other because there is no external threat. If we delay in withdrawing our troops, I'm afraid it will affect the Crown Prince's layout."

Le Jin hesitated for a while and asked: "Can our army resist Zhu Huan's attack?"

Haozhou said: "No problem. Our defense is to deal with the siege of Li and Sun. Now that Li Qi has not arrived, Sun Quan only has Zhu Huan to attack the city. Xu Sheng is in a wait-and-see state, so he has to stop Zhu Huan.

There is absolutely no problem with this round of attack.”

Le Jin said: "Then, let's find a way to lose Chungu to Li Qi. Jiangdong soldiers have already lost a lot to capture the city. If Li Qi finally takes the city, how can Sun Quan give up? Besides, Chungu and Wuhu are surrounded by Jiangdong Lai.

With the geographical advantages of separatist rule, Sun Quan will never be willing to see Spring Valley fall into Li Qi's pocket. And Li Qi is not a loser. The two families will definitely have disputes over the ownership of Spring Valley."

Haozhou asked: "But Li Qi has not moved yet. How can we let him capture this city?"

Le Jin frowned, this was a problem.

It would be more convenient if it were given to Zhu Huan, because Zhu Huan is under the tower.

But if we give it to Li Qi and no one else comes, how can we give it to him? Send a messenger to Li Qi and say: Brother, the city is under siege, we will give it to you?

He believes in me!

Haozhou said: "It's better to defeat Zhu Huan's attack and we take advantage of the opportunity to cross the river. As for who the Spring Valley belongs to, it depends on their own fate. According to the prince's plan, as long as there is less pressure from us, Sun Quan and Li

If anything happens, there will be disputes. Even if it does not develop according to the prince's expectations, it is not our responsibility. If our delay delays the prince's plan, then our sin will be great."

What Le Jin Xin Dao Hao Zhou said is not unreasonable.

Now that Zhang Liao, the head of the Eastern Theater Command, has surrendered to Li Qi, he is very likely to become the next head of the Eastern Theater Command. At this time, it is better to be active than to be quiet. If you make no mistakes, you can make a smooth transition. If you make a mistake, you will lose this opportunity.

, then I’m afraid it will be difficult to “turn into a full-time official” in this life. You must know that Le Jin has always existed as a deputy general, and this is indeed a good opportunity.

But he said that Zhu Huan had been attacking the city for a long time, but he didn't see any sign of the defense loosening, so he couldn't help but secretly curse.

To be fair, if Wu Qi really attacked the weak link in Spring Valley, shouldn't Le Jin send troops to reinforce it? If Le Jin didn't reinforce, Wu Qi should have invaded the city, right? Why is there no change at all?

Zhu Huan was about to send someone to find out the truth, but suddenly a spy came to report: "Wu Xiaowei led his troops and fled south."

Zhu Huan was shocked: "What?"

Knowing that he had been tricked, Zhu Huan quickly ordered the withdrawal of his troops, but Le Jin, who was unwilling to accept it, took advantage of the situation to cover up and defeat Zhu Huan.
