    Liu Ke¡¯s army marched quickly, and finally arrived outside Zhijiang City on the third day after the battle.

    Liu Ke is not as reckless as Dian Wei, who will fight with the opponent when he comes up.

    He was much more cautious. When he came outside Zhijiang City, he did not attack immediately. Instead, he sent people to explore the reality here.

    After the army set up camp, the scouts also returned one after another. From their mouths, Liu Ke finally understood the situation in Zhijiang.

    Now Zhou Yu¡¯s army of fifty thousand is stationed on a high slope five miles east of Zhijiang City.

    Zhijiang was garrisoned by Zhang Fei. Since the city gate was always closed, he didn't know much about the military strength in the city.

    However, judging from the size of Zhijiang City, it will never exceed Zhou Yu's troops.

    In other words, the total number of troops on both sides would not exceed 100,000.

    There is a huge gap between the troops in Liu Ke's hands.

    However, Liu Ke was not completely relieved after hearing the news.

    ¡°After all, there are only Zhou Yu and Zhang Fei here, but their lords Sun Quan and Liu Bei haven¡¯t come forward yet?

    " Moreover, the troops and horses in the hands of Sun Quan and Liu Bei will definitely not be less than those of these two people.

    Therefore, in front of Liu Ke at this moment, it seems that there is only the small Zhijiang City, and Zhou Yu and Zhang Fei who are trying to use their arms as a chariot.

    But the main forces of Sun and Liu lurking behind them are what Liu Ke needs to worry about most.

    So facing the situation at hand, Liu Ke summoned all the ministers to discuss it.

    "Your Majesty, our army has a strength of 300,000, far more than Zhou Yu and Zhang Fei. In my opinion, we should use the autumn wind to sweep away the fallen leaves.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? captured Zhijiang in less than a day, and the likes of Zhou Yu and Zhang Fei either captured or beheaded, and instantly pulled out this nail!  "

    "Yuan Zhi, although this plan is good, it ignores one problem."

    After Xu Shu finished speaking, Xun Yu couldn't wait to add while twirling his beard.

    Under the suspicious gaze of the other party, Xun Yu expressed his worries about Liu Bei and Sun Quan who had not shown up for a long time.

    At this time, Zhuge Liang stepped forward, gently shaking his feather fan, and spoke slowly.

    "Haha, Your Majesty, Wen Ruo and Yuan Zhi, what you said makes sense. But in Liang's opinion, Zhou Yu, Zhang Fei, Sun Quan, and Liu Bei have nothing to fear!"

    "Oh? What's the clever plan Kong Ming has?" Xu Shu asked immediately with a moved expression.

    "This plan is simple. Zhang Fei is defending the city and it is not suitable to attack. You can target Zhou Yu first.

    Zhou Yu is in a tough battle, and the city will definitely not sit idly by. Zhang Fei will definitely go out of the city to rescue him.

    At that time, after Zhang Fei left the city, Yue Lai led a wave of troops to ambush the roadside and make a sudden attack.

    Without Zhang Fei to rely on for the city, his strength will be greatly reduced. At worst, he will be in a stalemate and will no longer be able to rescue Zhou Yu.

    Zhou Yu will definitely not be able to hold out for long in the face of a powerful attack from our army.

    At that time, he had only two choices, either to escape back to Jiangling or to flee into Zhijiang.

    However, no matter what choice he makes, he cannot escape from our grasp.

    Fleeing back to Jiangling, not to mention the long distance, our army can pursue along the road, but I am afraid that most of them will be killed or injured before they arrive.

    If he escapes to Zhijiang, he and Zhang Fei will not be able to survive for long.

    And after the army surrounded Zhijiang City, Liu Bei and Sun Quan would definitely come to help.

    By then, we can wait for work and gather around to call for reinforcements.  "

    When Liu Ke heard this, he was instantly delighted.

    "Hahahaha! Kong Ming's plan is exactly what I want! I have decided and will proceed according to this plan!

    Wen Yuan and Zilong, I order you each to lead an army of 30,000 to attack Zhou Yu's camp.

    When evil comes, lead an army of 30,000 to lie in ambush on the roadside. When Zhang Fei leaves the city, launch an attack immediately.

    Remember, even if you can't defeat the opponent, you must still hold him back!  "

    "Your Majesty, don't worry! If I don't win this time, I will commit suicide and apologize!" Dian Wei was full of confidence and patted his chest to confirm.

    Except for the 90,000 soldiers and horses that the three of them took away, the rest were led by Liu Ke himself and stayed at their current position to guard against the sudden appearance of Sun Quan and Liu Bei's armies.

    After all arrangements were completed, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao each led their troops towards Zhou Yu's camp.

    The location where Zhou Yu is located is called Qifeng Terrace by the locals. It is a high platform that is obviously higher than other places.

    Choosing to set up camp here not only avoids flooding in the rainy south, it is also easy to defend and difficult to attack, so as to prevent the enemy from suddenly attacking the camp.

      So when Zhang Liao's scouts discovered the specific situation of Zhou Yu's camp, they couldn't help but feel a little troubled.

    "Zhou Yu is indeed a great military master. The camps he has set up are so high-quality. If we attack by force, we will probably have to pay a lot of casualties!"

    Unexpectedly, Zhao Yun said indifferently: "Haha, Wen Yuan, you are worrying too much!"

    Under Zhang Liao¡¯s puzzled gaze, Zhao Yun continued: ¡°Although Zhou Yu¡¯s military camp is arranged in a way that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

    But why do we have to attack by force?  In my opinion, just suppress it with firepower as His Majesty often said!

    First, pull out a giant sling cannon and bombard him for a day to see if Zhou Yu's camp can withstand it?  "

    Hearing this, Zhang Liao finally showed an expression of sudden realization.

    "Zilong, seconds! I deeply admire your ability to recognize variables and be resourceful!

    "Just do as you say, you will be responsible for the bombardment of the giant catapult, and I will lead people to ambush on the side."

    "As long as Zhou Yu can't withstand the bombardment and goes out to fight, I will immediately lead the army to attack from the side. Together, we can definitely defeat Zhou Yu!"  "

    After hearing this, Zhao Yun nodded in agreement.

    So, in less than an hour, Zhao Yun completed assembling the giant catapult.

    The range of this big killer weapon is extremely long, so even if Zhou Yu realizes the discovery, he has no countermeasures. He can only watch the opponent assemble it and start bombarding it.

    When the boulder roared into the camp, the soldiers in the camp were instantly killed and injured and fell into chaos.

    Even Zhou Yu was quickly escorted out of the camp and came to the open space.

    Otherwise, if you are not careful, the boulder falls, I am afraid that death will not know how to die.

    All the generals also rushed out and ordered their troops to take shelter in various places. For a while, the camp was running around and shouting, and it was a mess.

    But the opponent's giant catapult was very accurate, and all the huge rocks fell into the camp.

    ¡°Besides, this camp is only so big, where can I hide if I want to?

    Therefore, Lu Dai rushed to Zhou Yu anxiously and said: "Grand Governor, the enemy's attack is too fierce.

    We absolutely cannot continue to sit here and wait for death.  Please allow the commander-in-chief to lead the troops to rush out and destroy the enemy's weapons!  "

    Zhou Yu was a little hesitant when he heard this.

    He understood in his heart that the other party's bombardment was actually to force him out of the strong camp.

    If you go out now, you will definitely be ambushed by the other party.

    However, Lu Dai said helplessly: "Grand Governor, why don't my subordinates know about this plan? But if we don't take action, won't we be able to escape death?" (Remember this website's website address: www.hlnovel.com
