    After Sun Quan heard that his food and grass had been attacked, he was so angry that he cursed repeatedly.

    He sent Cheng Pu to monitor Xiahou Dun, with the purpose of preventing Xiahou Dun from sending people to sneak attack on his grain and grass, but Cheng Pu failed.

    Although Cheng Pu later said that he led people to take revenge and severely damaged the navy in Chao County, was this useful?  Even if the navy in Chao County cannot come out for a while, Sun Quan will still lose a lot of food and supplies.

    There are still about three days of food and grass left in the Wu Army. Cheng Pu has urgently transported food and grass from the rear, but it will take time to get here. If they are attacked again, the soldiers of the Wu Army will really be hungry.

    It has been more than 20 days since Sun Quan brought his people here. He has consumed countless supplies of food and grass and has not taken any advantage. Instead, the Wei army's people burned part of his food and grass behind. How did Sun Quan suffer from this?

    "And Xiahou Dun can send people to sneak attack for the first time, then there may be a second or third time.

    Even if Cheng Pu sent someone to pat his chest and tell Sun Quan that he would never let such a thing happen again, Sun Quan would not believe it.

    Lu Su said to Sun Quan, "King Wu, this matter cannot be concealed."

    "Why?" Sun Quan expressed puzzlement. He said, "How could this matter be leaked out casually? If the soldiers knew about it, wouldn't it cause even greater chaos?"

    Lu Su explained, "King Wu, Cao Cao also knows about this. If we conceal it, he will take the initiative to tell it. In this case, the soldiers will be even more confused." Lu Su's meaning is very clear.  It is better to hide it than to tell it openly. Anyway, Wu Jun is not worried about the problem of food and grass now.

    Ruxuwu, where Wu Jun stored grain and grass, is not far from here, and the transportation is convenient.  Traveling by water is also fast and there is enough food and grass.

    The Wei army secretly attacked the Wu army's grain and grass, but it did not cause any injuries to the Wu army. Taking the initiative to spread the news may make the soldiers worried, but at least it will not cause too much chaos to them.

    But once Cao Cao is unable to get out, the meaning will be different. This will cause greater confusion and worry for the soldiers.

    "Cao Cao dares to say it?" Sun Quan said very unhappy, "Chao County was also attacked by my men, and his losses were no better than mine. If he dares to say anything, let's see who will be more embarrassed."  Sun Quan's meaning was also very clear, that is, Cao Cao was also attacked. If he told it, Cao Cao would be embarrassed, so he thought Cao Cao would not take the initiative to tell it.

    "King Wu, I think you should be more cautious and not suppress it like this." Lu Su persuaded, "After all, food and grass are more important"

    What Sun Quan said was basically two different things. Cao Cao's Chao County was attacked by surprise. There would be losses and humiliation, but it would not cause chaos among the soldiers in Hefei.  The issue of food and grass can cause confusion among Wu Jun's soldiers.

    "Okay, that's it." Sun Quan waved his hand and did not let Lu Su continue to talk about this issue. He said, "Tell me what I should do now. Should I also retreat? How should I retreat?"  Sun Quan can still act relatively strong in front of Lu Su.

    Sun Quan asked this question, which proved that he had the idea of ????retreating in his heart.  Because he feels that there is no hope if this continues, and staying here will make him suffer continuously.

    He had vowed not to retreat before, but Cao Cao's sneak attack on his grain and grass let him know that his rear grain road was not as safe as he imagined, and his grain and grass were always under threat from others.

    If Xiahou Dun succeeds in another sneak attack, the tens of thousands of Wu soldiers under him will go hungry.

    What would be even more serious would be if his Ruxuwu was attacked by surprise.

    Then Chaohu Lake is in danger of being lost. You must know that Cao Cao has always been eyeing Chaochuhu, and has always wanted to take Chaohu Lake as his own.

    If Chaohu falls into the hands of Cao Cao, Cao Cao can send troops from Hefei to cross Chaohu at any time and enter the Yangtze River to directly threaten Jianye.

    This is absolutely unacceptable to Cao Cao. He can tolerate Hefei being temporarily in Cao Cao's hands, but he cannot tolerate Chaohu falling into Cao Cao's hands.

    "We can only retreat." Lu Su said, but at the same time, he felt helpless again.

    He found that since Cao Cao came to Hefei, it seemed that the initiative in all matters was not with Wu.

    Every time Sun Quan said he would not retreat, something would happen.

    But no matter what, now that things have developed to this point, retreating may be the best choice.

    butThere must be regulations for withdrawing troops. Lu Su said to Sun Quan, "The withdrawal of troops must be carried out carefully, and the king of Wei, Cao Cao, cannot find out."

    Cao Cao has rich experience in battlefield battles. If the Wu army's retreat is known to Cao Cao.

    Then Cao Cao will definitely find a way to harass and attack, and he will definitely find a way to bite Sun Quan.

    In order to avoid greater losses, the retreat must be done carefully and not let outsiders know, let alone Cao Cao on the opposite side.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
