Chapter 941 Don't Enter the City

He first climbed the camp to repel the Jiangdong Army's first attack, and the defenders who were watching the whole way at the city were immediately inspired.

"Look, look, the young master's soldiers are powerful." An officer said to the veteran beside him: "The Jiangdong army was beaten like a dog. Fortunately, General Li led us to rebel against Jiangdong. Otherwise, we would have to go against the young master in the future, which would not be like seeking death."

"That's it." The veteran said with a smacking mouth: "That little man has actually repelled several times the Jiangdong army. If they were asked to defend the city, let alone such a little bit of the Jiangdong army, even if they were a few times more, they would probably not be able to defeat Tongyang."

The soldiers were discussing the battle outside the city, and Li Shu was also full of joy.

The first battle of the camp was won, which greatly encouraged the soldiers. Even if the food and supplies in the city were gone, they could at least last for three or two more days.

Xiandeng Camp outside the city was already cleaning the battlefield. Li Shu turned around and shouted to the soldiers on the top of the city: "Soldiers, have you seen that the reinforcements sent by the young master have won! I have another good news to tell you that in two days, a 10,000 army will come to Tongyang, and Taishici and Zhou Tai will be unable to escape."

"Capture Zhou Tai alive and catch Taishi Ci!" A captain shouted with his weapon high.

The cheers of "Capture Zhou Tai alive and catch Taishi Ci" immediately sounded on the top of the city.

The soldiers guarding the city were inspired, and the corresponding morale of the Jiangdong Army was depressed.

In the handsome tent, Taishi Ci sat there with a pale face, while Zhou Tai sat opposite him.

"Ziyi, how about it?" Zhou Tai asked, "Have I lie to you?"

After looking at Zhou Tai, Taishi Ci said in a boredom: "It's really great to go to the camp first, Ju Yi's martial arts are not bad either. Even if the two armies did not fight, I just fought with him alone, and I'm afraid I won't be able to beat him in a short time."

"The horse exploration is a reward, saying that Pang Tong led Yan Liang and Wen Chou led an army of 10,000 to Tongyang." Zhou Tai said: "We have no chance of winning anymore."

"General Zhou means" Taishici asked: "withdraw the troops?"

"That's right." Zhou Tai said: "When Pang Tong and others arrive, our army will no longer have an advantage. Instead of waiting here, it is better to withdraw the troops safely."

"No!" Taishi Ci said: "We led our army to Lujiang, and we couldn't even take over a small Tongyang. When we returned to Jiangdong, how could we have the attitude to meet the generals in Jiangdong?"

"This is not a question of whether we are face or not." Zhou Tai said: "This is a question of whether we will be wiped out."

"How did General Zhou know that our army will definitely be defeated?" Taishici said: "Not all the 10,000 troops will be admitted to the camp first."

"Ziyi has never fought with them." Zhou Tai said: "Cao Zirong's subordinates have always fought for life, and our soldiers are simply incomparable to them."

"Who said I hadn't fought with them?" Taishici said, "Didn't we fight Xiandengying just now?"

"That's just going to the camp first. The real army has not arrived yet." Zhou Tai said anxiously: "Ziyi can't be confused at this time."

"If Li Shu is not destroyed, in the future, all parts of Jiangdong will rebel. As long as you surrender to Cao Zirong, you will be spared from death. What prestige does the Sun family in Jiangdong have?" Taishi Ci said: "This time we come to Tongyang, we will have to bring back Li Shu's head no matter what."

Taishici insisted on staying here, but Zhou Tai could not withdraw with his own troops. He just sighed long: "Since Ziyi decided to stay here, I have to accompany him. But before the main force of the enemy arrived, we have to make a comprehensive response."

"What is a comprehensive response?" Taishici asked: "How to withdraw after failure?"

"We have to consider how to withdraw after failure and how to advance after victory." Zhou Tai said: "Actually, I don't have any hope for this battle. It's just that Ziyi wants to fight, so I will fight with you."

"The general doesn't have hope, how can he fight?" Taishici said: "If General Zhou thinks he will lose, he can lead his troops to retreat to Jiangdong first."

"Who does Ziyi think of me?" Zhou Tai said with a bad face: "No matter whether it wins or loses, I am willing to fight this battle with Ziyi. With me here, Ziyi can also have a support."

He bowed to Zhou Tai, and Taishi Ci said, "I would like to thank you for this!"

First Dengying stationed outside Tongyang City.

Not far from where they were stationed, some newly built small bulges were very eye-catching.

The soldiers on both sides who died in battle were buried there.

The casualties of the camp were very small, and most of the ones buried in the bulge were killed in battle.

Night falls quietly.

The military camp was quiet.

Ju Yi patrolled the army and explained something to the soldiers from time to time.

When they arrived at the side facing Tongyang, several soldiers from the camp first stood up.

"How is it?" Ju Yi asked, "Is there anything unusual?"

"No, after the morning battle, the Jiangdong Army should have been afraid of being beaten." A soldier replied.

"If they were really scared, they would have left long ago." Ju Yi said: "It means they are not really scared. They are all open their eyes tonight and cannot underestimate the enemy."

Several soldiers responded.

The soldiers who responded to his question asked: "General, we have come to Tongyang, why don't we just enter the city? With the city wall, there is no need to worry about the Jiangdong Army coming to rob the camp in the middle of the night."

"Enter the city?" Ju Yi said, "What else is there in the city? After being surrounded for so long, the granary in Tongyang City may have reached the bottom. If we don't go in, we should beware of the Jiangdong Army coming to rob the camp, but we don't have to distribute the rations to the defenders. You must know that the rations we brought are only enough for two or three days, and we will go hungry ourselves."

"How did the general know that there was no food in the city?" the soldier asked.

"General Pang told me." Ju Yi said: "He didn't say any reason, and I didn't ask much. Anyway, you know, it's right that what he said wouldn't be wrong."

While talking to the soldiers, a guard ran over from behind: "Report to General Ju, Captain Chen of Huowu Camp asked for a meeting."

"Which is the Chief Chen?" Ju Yi asked.

"Chen Wu." The guard replied.

Chen Wu was once Cao Shuo's close guard, and now he is the captain of Huowu Camp. Of course, Ju Yi did not dare to neglect and said to the guard: "Go and invite Captain Chen to come over and speak."

Shortly after the guard retreated, he came with Chen Wu.

After saluting Ju Yi, Chen Wu said, "I was still in Tongyang City. I saw the general fighting with the Jiangdong Army this morning. I felt that there were some things that I had to say, so I went out of the city to see General Ju."

"The news brought by Captain Chen must be useful." Ju Yi said: "I would like to ask the Captain to make a clear statement."

"There is no food in Tongyang City, so the general should not enter the city rashly." Chen Wu said: "Once you enter the city, the soldiers who first enter the camp will have to go hungry with them."
