    Shi Qian initially looked down upon those famous generals and attributed their achievements entirely to good luck.

    The reason why I am trapped in a corner is simply because I am not a direct descendant of Sun Ce and Sun Quan, so I have never been reused.

    So when I first saw Sun Quan retreating and one of his generals being chased, he was as panic-stricken as a lost dog.

    There was even a hint of joy in Shi Qian's heart, thinking that these people finally showed their true colors under the opponent's powerful offensive.

    At the same time, I also thought that it was finally time for me to show off.

    So during this period, Shi Qian even hoped in his heart that the enemy would attack quickly.

    As long as you defeat him head-on, compared with those who have been defeated repeatedly, you will definitely attract the attention of the lord in an instant.

    By then, his status will naturally rise.

    In fact, you can¡¯t blame Shi Qian for thinking this way. After all, there are only those high-ranking officials and nobles, but there are so many people staring at these positions.

    If you have the chance to fight, you will not hesitate to lose your life.

    "Don't tell me that Shi Qian thinks that his strength is pretty good.

    But after ten rounds, he finally felt a little regretful.

    Because although I have great strength, I can't hold on for so long.

    However, every attack from Dian Wei forced him to defend with all his strength.

    It was easy to pay it back once or twice, but after too many times, Shi Qian finally couldn't hold on anymore.

    Shi Qian only felt that his arms were numb, his eyes were in a daze, and the qi in his body was blocked, and he almost couldn't breathe.

    When he looked at Dian Wei, he saw that the other person's complexion was as usual, his face was not red, he was not out of breath, he seemed to be just warming up slightly.

    Such a scene instantly defeated the last persistence in Shi Qian¡¯s heart.

    Dian Wei has forced himself into such a embarrassment, but he is still so relaxed. It is obvious that the opponent has not used all his strength, otherwise he may really die on the spot.

    Therefore, Shi Qian finally had the intention to quit.

    I saw him break away from the battle group and say: "Stop, stop, stop! I have occasional discomfort in my stomach today, please allow me to go back and come back when it is convenient."

    "Otherwise, even if you win, you will be taking advantage of others' danger. If you win without force, you will be embarrassed if word spreads!"  "

    After saying that, regardless of Dian Weitong's disapproval, he turned around and fled back to the city, closing the city gate tightly.

    Dian Wei was left with a dull look on his face.

    It was only at this moment that he finally reacted and immediately cursed: "This person is so shameless, he even ran away at the slightest thought!"

    Although Shi Qian is proud of himself, he is not pedantic. In other words, he has no idol baggage.

    Seeing that the situation is not good, it is a shame to turn around and run away from others, but Shi Qian is very open-minded.

    He even once taught his subordinates: ¡°If you don¡¯t run away if you know you are outmatched, aren¡¯t you asking for death?

    The world will only remember the winner, but not the fool. Even if you lose, you must save your life, only then will you have a chance to win back!  "

    So, how could Shi Qian, who had returned to the city, come out to seek death again?

    He murmured to himself: "This Dian Wei is indeed very powerful, even this general is slightly inferior to him.

    Originally, I wanted to repel the enemy army by myself, but now it seems that it is impossible.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????? together out of ??calling Chief Cai). We are about to write a letter to the governor asking for help.  "

    ???????????? Then, Shi Gan said, the chief clerk just took notes and wrote it in a while. Then, before Dian Wei surrounded Zhijiang, he sent someone to deliver the letter immediately.

    The afternoon after Zhou Yu returned to Jiangling, he received a letter from Shi Qian.

    But after watching it, Zhou Yu felt a little dumbfounded.

    It turns out that Shi Qian spent almost two-thirds of the letter describing his battle with Dian Wei.

    In the end, there is only a short paragraph that is about asking for help.

    Although what Shi Qian said was unclear, Zhou Yu understood that Liu Ke would definitely use a lot of troops to attack Zhijiang this time.

    I had finally managed to convince Liu Bei to fight together, so I would not let go of such an opportunity.

    So Zhou Yu simply gathered all the troops and brought them up one by one.

    Only in this way can Liu Bei truly believe it and use his full strength.

    "However, more than half of these soldiers and horses have just been recruited, and some are still in training.

    It is unrealistic to set off immediately, but if you wait until all the troops are gathered before setting off,Zhijiang may be in danger again.

    In the end, Zhou Yu had no choice but to kiss 20,000 brave men and take the lead himself to help Zhijiang.

    After the army at the back was assembled, Cheng Pu brought him again.

    Under Zhou Yu's support, the army gathered and could set off early tomorrow morning, and he felt relieved.

    However, during the process of delivering the letter, Dian Wei's army had already surrounded Zhijiang.

    And no matter how much Dian Wei yelled and scolded him the next day, Shi Qian never went out again.

    He had no choice but to immediately launch an attack on the city.

    As the last city within the Yangtze River from Dangyang, Zhijiang is naturally more heavily guarded than other places.

    After Sun Quan withdrew, Shi Qian has been working hard to build defensive equipment. He built this city airtight and heavily defended.

    At the beginning, Dian Wei¡¯s attack did not bring any benefit at all, and was even repelled by Shi Qian many times.

    As a result, Shi Gan became even more complacent, and he simply rushed to the top of the city to command his men to defend.

    But if it hadn¡¯t been for his quicker reaction, he would have almost been hit by Dian Wei¡¯s arrow.

    Shi Qian was so frightened that he could only huddle back and command the army to defend, never daring to venture out too far.

    But he had two brushes, and his defense was airtight. Ling Dianwei never got any benefits, so he had to withdraw his troops temporarily and attack again after lunch.

    In the afternoon, as soon as the battle started, the situation in the morning changed drastically.

    It turns out that after trekking along the road, Dian Wei's siege equipment finally arrived.

    Originally, these equipment were set out with him, but because they were heavy and difficult to walk, it was very time-consuming.

    So Dian Wei had no choice but to come here first, but the equipment was late for a day and a night.

    However, now is the official time.

    The person in charge of the escort quickly apologized for being late, but Dian Wei waved his hand indifferently and said: "No need to be polite.

    Since you are here, let¡¯s get started!  "

    At his order, all kinds of siege equipment were immediately pushed to the edge of the city and began to be debugged.

    This time, not only came the giant catapult, but also the newly built Lu Gong chariot.

    Lu Gong's car is several feet high. The inside is made of wooden frames, and the outside is covered with cowhide for protection. There are four wheels underneath for push.

    When it was pushed to the edge of the city, the ladder on the top instantly stretched out and firmly grasped the Zhijiang city wall.

    Immediately, a group of people rushed from the inside, holding a crossbow to shoot, and instantly wounded the defenders on the city's head and killed a vacuum area in front of the eyes.

    Then there was a loud shout, and Dian Wei jumped out from inside.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
