The dejected Liu Yao was defeated with his remaining troops.
With low morale, he returned to the outside of Qu'a city.
But they found that the city was completely empty.
No flags waved, no figures flashed.
A guard came forward and shouted:
"The lord returns with his army, open the city gate quickly!"
After shouting three times in a row, there was still no one on the top of the city.
Liu Yao's face instantly darkened, and he subconsciously thought of the worst:
Could it be said that Zhou Yu has already conquered Quacheng?
However, the Jiangdong Army had a total of more than 10,000 troops.
And what Zhou Yu led was just a partial army of Jiangdong's disciples.
How many soldiers and horses can there be?
How could he possibly hit Qu'a?
Just when Liu Yao was in shock and doubt, thousands of strong bows were set up on the top of the city in an instant.
They all aimed at Liu Yao's location.
Zhou Yu, dressed as a Confucian general, appeared at the end of Liu Yao's gaze.
He scolded Fang Qiu coolly:
"Liu Yao! Quacheng is already the territory of our Jiangdong Army! I advise you to leave as soon as possible to save your life."
"If my lord leads his troops here, we will make sure you die without a burial place if you cooperate inside and outside!"
It seemed to confirm Zhou Yu's threat.
Two generals, Yang Miaozhen and Jiang Qin, appeared on the top of the city.
Female general Yang Miaozhen lowers her eyebrows like Guanyin.
General Jiang Qin looked like a vajra with angry eyes.
Two pairs of eyes focused on Liu Yao from a distance, with unspeakable killing intent!
There is a tendency to fight if there is a disagreement.
Liu Yao was immediately frightened.
Taishi Ci, the most capable of his men, had been captured alive by Sun Ce.
With the 1,700 remaining soldiers and defeated generals around him, how easy is it to recapture Qu'a?
Even Arabian Nights would not dare to write such a fantasy!
What more bikes do you want?
Qu'a, no more!
No more reputation!
No more dignity!
The most important thing is to keep your old life.
run!
Liu Yao took the people around him and embarked on the road to escape again.
He left Qu'a City in embarrassment.
Watching Liu Yao gradually go away, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Yu's mouth.
Jiang Qin breathed a long sigh of relief and gave Zhou Yu a thumbs up:
"Gong Jin, your 'empty city tactic' was so easy to pull off! You scared Liu Yao away with just a few words."
Why did he say that Zhou Yu was playing an "empty city strategy"?
Yang Miaozhen gave the answer in the next second.
Turning to look at the hundreds of Jiangdong soldiers on top of the city, Yang Miaozhen smiled delicately and waved her hand:
"Take it all, don't let Liu Yao come back and see any flaws."
Hundreds of disciples quickly put away their strong bows on the city walls.
Most of these powerful bows are mounted on the scarecrow.
Due to the height difference.
Liu Yao, who was under the city wall, couldn't see the back of the city wall. Is it a living person or a scarecrow standing there?
He could only see the strong bow sticking out of the crenel.
Coupled with Zhou Yu's verbal threats, how could the frightened Liu Yao have the energy to make a careful distinction?
I was directly frightened by Zhou Yu!
In fact.
There are only more than 1,000 Jiangdong soldiers in Qu'a City.
The strength of the troops is not as good as the remaining defeated generals around Liu Yao.
The Yangzhou Army had called continuously before, but no one answered from the top of the city.
It's because Zhou Yu is commanding the soldiers and arranging the scarecrow in place!
Just now, if Liu Yao launched a ruthless attack and led his troops to attack the city, it was not certain who would win!
It's a pity that Liu Yao doesn't have the courage.
After Zhou Yu calculated this, he dared to play the empty city strategy blatantly.
Then, follow Zhou Yu to cross the Yangtze River at night.
Where did the Jiangdong soldiers who came to attack Qu'a go?
Liu Yao found the answer on the way to escape.
When he fled to Dantu in panic.
I found Fu Xin, the goddess of martial arts of Jiangdong Army, standing on the top of the city holding a big ax.
Just waiting for Liu Yao to come.
He stared at the large ax weighing more than 50 kilograms in Fu Xin's hand for a few seconds.
Liu Yao still failed to muster the courage to order an attack on the city.
His confidence and courage had long been destroyed by Sun Ce's anus explosion.
Frightened by Fu Xin's strong aura, Liu Yao turned the horse's head again without saying a word.
He led his men and rushed to the city further south.
After finally arriving at the place after a long journey, they saw that General Zhou Tai had already deployed defenses at the top of the city.
Seeing Liu Yao coming, he commanded his Jiangdong soldiers to shoot at random.
Liu Yao was so frightened that he did not dare to fight, and he fled again in frustration...
turn out to be.
After Zhou Yu led his army to conquer Qu'a.
Tactics were adjusted in a timely manner according to the situation.
He sent Fu Xin and Zhou Tai to each lead a part of their disciples, and took advantage of the situation to attack Dantu and other places.
Echoing Quacheng from afar, it formed an iron triangle.
Qu'a is Liu Yao's base camp.
Take this place and hold it.
It has important strategic significance for Jiangdong Army.
Similarly, it was a great shock to the Yangzhou Army.
After Zhou Yu captured Qu'a, Zhou Yu, who was flexible with his troops, found that there were not many troops stationed in the city.
Most of the soldiers were transferred to the north bank of the Yangtze River by Liu Yao.
Therefore, Zhou Yu made an immediate decision and divided his troops into three groups.
The situation in Qu'a and surrounding counties was completely stabilized.
The Qu'a market was opened for Jiang Dongjun.
Monopoly completed!
Liu Yao, who was constantly on the go, finally found a place to stay in Wucheng.
The day I entered Wucheng, the tight string in my heart relaxed.
Liu Yao could no longer hold on.
The unspeakable depression made him so scared that he couldn't even get sick.
Lying down.
But even though he was lying on the hospital bed, he still couldn't get rid of the continuing nightmare.
There is news from the north.
Sun Ce led the Jiangdong Army and marched straight in.
Wherever the soldiers went, they defeated three counties in a row!
In addition, Qu'a, Dantu and other places were suddenly attacked by Zhou Yu.
Jiangdong Army swallowed up 6 counties!
Liu Yao, a Yangzhou shepherd, did not have much territory to begin with.
Yuan Shu seized Shouchun and other places.
In the south, Wang Lang, the prefect of Kuaiji, and Yu Fan, the prefect of Yuzhang, returned the favor.
Those who work hard but don’t work hard.
Now Liu Yao has become a fallen phoenix.
There is no need to expect them to obey Liu Yao's orders and lead troops to support.
Under the dual influence of grief, anger and depression, Liu Yao's condition rapidly worsened.
He couldn't survive more than a month, so he died and died in the west.
Sun Ce took advantage of this time.
They pushed their troops forward and occupied the large area left by Liu Yao.
Not only did they capture Poyang County, they also extended their tentacles to the edge of Wu County.
The governor of Wu Commandery was named Xu Gong.
Compared with Wang Lang, the prefect of Kuaiji, Yu Fan, the prefect of Yuzhang, and others.
Xu Gong was relatively loyal to Liu Yao.
Considering the limited strength of Jiangdong Army, there is no way to extend the front too long.
Sun Ce decisively issued an order to stop the march.
The troops were transferred back to Wucheng, where Liu Yao died of illness.
Wucheng is not a military powerhouse, and its strategic significance is not that prominent.
But for Sun Ce, this is a landmark that he must conquer.
Don't forget, Sun Jian's title during his lifetime was Marquis of Wucheng.
Later, Sun Ce inherited the title left by his father.
How can the dignified Marquis of Wucheng allow the place of Wucheng to be in the hands of others?
Wucheng must be the private territory of Marquis Wucheng!
only if.
Only then can I comfort my father’s spirit in heaven.
