Faced with the attack from two armies, Cheng Pu was in dire straits, and his situation became increasingly dangerous.
Forced by armies from both sides, Cheng Pu could only escape in other directions along the hillside. Finally, after going through a lot of hardships, he finally turned to the north and fled for his life.
Therefore, when he returned to Zhou Yu, he was also the worst one.
From Cheng Pu to the most ordinary soldier, almost everyone was injured, and the number of troops was reduced by one-third from the beginning.
After seeing the other party, Zhou Yu's face was so gloomy that it almost overflowed with water.
Because this strategy was all made by him alone.
Especially before tonight, Zhou Yu still made a sworn promise in front of Sun Ce.
But now it has ended up with a loss of troops and generals, and nothing has been accomplished.
How can Zhou Yu, who is so arrogant and arrogant, swallow this sigh of relief?
Zhou Yu¡¯s face suddenly turned red, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing this, the generals rushed forward together.
"Grand Governor, it was all because of our incompetence that we were defeated by our enemies. Please don't be angry!"
"That's right, Commander-in-Chief, if you want to be beaten or punished, it's up to you. If you have any anger in your heart, just vent it all on us!"
"Grand Governor, take care of yourself! Woo hoo hoo"
However, after Zhou Yu spurted out the blood, his complexion became slightly better.
He waved his hand to stop the generals from talking, and said slowly: "It doesn't matter to me, the failure of this plan is all my fault.
Generals, don¡¯t blame yourself, I will go to the king to apologize! "
"With that said, Zhou Yu resolutely returned to Wancheng and went directly to Sun Ce to plead guilty, regardless of the generals' dissuasion.
When Sun Ce heard that the plan to attack Zhishan at night had failed, his face became very ugly.
However, when the generals heard that Zhou Yu vomited blood because of this incident, they hurriedly walked forward anxiously.
"Gong Jin, if this plan fails, we will just come back later. You must not hurt your body because of this!"
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu have been friends since childhood, and their relationship has long gone beyond that of a monarch or a minister. Therefore, Sun Ce is naturally more concerned about Zhou Yu's safety than the current war situation.
After everyone tried to persuade him in unison, Zhou Yu's mood gradually improved.
However, he still couldn't let go of this in his heart, and secretly made up his mind to win back the victory one day.
Not long after the battle at Zheshan ended, the sky finally grew bright.
At this moment, Liu Ke finally led his army to march from the south to the southern foot of Zheshan Mountain, completely cutting off Zhou Yu's thoughts of recapturing Zheshan Mountain.
The arrival of Liu Ke's army immediately alerted the defenders in Wancheng.
Now that the location outside the city has been occupied by Liu Ke, it is unwise to attack the city again, so Sun Ce can only tighten the defense inside the city and prepare to fight the opponent again with the strong Wancheng.
Liu Ke stood on top of the mountain and looked down. Except for a few hills outside the city, there was a flat plain with no other obstructions.
However, all the troops originally stationed on those hills have been recalled to the city by Sun Ce.
After all, now that Zheshan has been lost and the southern gate is wide open, there is no point in guarding other key points.
On the contrary, they will be defeated by each other one by one, and the gain outweighs the loss.
Looking at the scenery in front of him, Liu Ke said to the counselors beside him: "Now the Wancheng barrier has been lost, and only a lonely city is left.
????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of all the ministers, is there any way to destroy the city? "
"Your Majesty, since this is an isolated city, everything is easy to handle. I have two strategies, please ask your Majesty for your judgment!"
When Liu Ke heard this, his eyes lit up: "If Wen has any clever ideas, just say so."
¡°Your Majesty, Wancheng is strong and cannot be easily broken down, so attacking by force is only a bad idea. If you kill one thousand enemies, you will suffer eight hundred losses.
The best strategy is to besiege but not attack. Even if the city is rich in reserves and Sun Ce has gathered so many troops, it will not last long.
Therefore, it can take as long as one year or as little as half a year. After the city runs out of food, it will surrender without fighting! "
Hearing this, Liu Ke nodded slowly and said, "The best strategy Wen Ruo mentioned can indeed reduce our army's casualties.
"It's just that although this siege strategy is good, it is extremely time-consuming. Now that the world is not at peace, how can I keep my army here for a long time?
So although it is the best policy, it cannot solve my urgent need! "
After listening to Liu Ke¡¯s words, Xun Yu could only retreat.
His strategy is from a tactical perspective to ensure thatReally good.
But for Liu Ke¡¯s grand strategy of planning the world, it took a little too much time, so it was not adopted by Liu Ke.
The others frowned and said nothing, and they seemed to have no idea of ??a good way to break the city.
So Liu Ke could only sigh and temporarily adopt a costly strategy.
Therefore, after a day of preparation, the army finally slowly started to move and formed a formation under Wancheng.
Sun Ce also quickly put his troops on top of the city to prepare for the coming battle.
The city of Wancheng is tall and solid, comparable to ordinary county towns, so Sun Ce's confidence is quite high.
¡° Moreover, he has a backup plan. As long as he can hold on for a few more days, the situation will definitely change dramatically.
After the army set up the array, following Liu Ke's order, they finally began to attack.
The first round of attacks was still an invincible giant catapult.
There were five catapults, under the skillful operation of the soldiers, and they roared and threw the huge boulders towards the top of the city in a moment.
However, this time Sun Ce and Zhou Yu had already expected this move from the other side.
Therefore, the soldiers in the city were prepared early.
Most of the troops are hiding behind the roots of the city wall. As long as the city wall does not fall, they will not be harmed at all.
Some people even sneaked into the underground fortifications dug before. Now there are not many people in the city.
As for the ones on the city wall, you can only rely on your quick eyes and quick hands.
Fortunately, the stone thrown is huge, so as long as the direction is predicted well, it will not be hit.
Therefore, in this way, Sun Ce's army did not suffer much losses in the first round of attacks.
Even the city wall, because it was extremely strong, only scattered stone chips and had no major impact on the main body.
However, Liu Ke never gave up. As soon as the first round of attack ended, he immediately started the second round.
Huge boulders were continuously thrown into the city, and almost the entire city had been baptized by them.
It¡¯s just that with the other party¡¯s careful preparation, the impact of the boulder became lower and lower, until in the end not even a single person was affected.
When the general responsible for operating the giant catapult saw this, he hurried to Liu Ke to report.
"Your Majesty, the city is strong and the impact of the giant catapults is getting smaller and smaller. It seems that there are no results anymore."
Liu Ke nodded noncommittally. He had witnessed the whole process, how could he not see it?
The current situation made him feel agitated for no reason. He didn't expect that the giant catapult that had been invincible before would fail here.
