Three days later, at the head of Qu'a City.
Smoke and dust filled the air, and the shouts of killing shook the sky.
This important town that once made countless talents from Jiangdong proud, has now been soaked in red with the blood of countless Jiangdong children.
On the city wall, thousands of Jiangdong soldiers, holding steel knives in hand, were rushing towards the city wall along the ladder, densely packed like a colony of ants.
Gao Yi's eyes were as bright as a torch, and he was holding the Tianlong city-breaking halberd in his hand, commanding the battlefield calmly and calmly.
Whenever an enemy army rushed to the city from Gao Yi's defense line, they would suffer an unprecedented violent blow.
Today's Gao Yi is no longer the Gao Yi he once was, after killing Liu Bei, Sun Ce, and Yuan Shu.
Gao Yi's own overlord power increased by a full 60%, and his strength increased dramatically.
Although he cannot soar into the clouds, he dares to shake the five mountains.
Even though the cauldron weighs thousands of pounds, Gao Yi can easily lift it with one hand without any effort.
On the city tower, every time the dragon halberd flew in Gao Yi's hand, a large number of enemy troops were smashed into a pile of blood-fog and minced meat by the fierce and domineering halberd.
At the beginning, there were some arrogant and powerful generals from Jiangdong who tried to kill Gao Yi by relying on the large number of people.
And the corpses of those arrogant soldiers eventually turned into pieces of flesh and blood and mud all around them.
"Lord, there are hundreds of thousands of enemy troops now. We cannot fight for a long time! Let's break out of the encirclement as soon as possible, right?"
Cheng Lian brandished his sword and killed several Jiangdong soldiers before running to Gao Yi panting.
"In the past, on the banks of the Surabaya River, I regarded hundreds of thousands of Cao Cao's troops as nothing more than a piece of grass. With just a hundred cavalry, I killed Cao Cao's thieves and cut off their beards and discarded their robes."
"Now I still have 20,000 wolf soldiers under my command, why should I fear a mere 100,000 Jiangdong rats?"
While Gao Yi responded contemptuously, he still did not forget to kill the enemy.
The Heavenly Dragon Halberd danced in his hand and hit the steel knife stuck on the ground at will. The steel knife was directly knocked away towards an enemy soldier who had just climbed onto the tower.
Before the Jiangdong soldier could react, the flying steel knife had already pierced the man's body. The blade came out of his body and stabbed into the chest and abdomen of another person behind him.
Gao Yi put away the Tianlong city-breaking halberd, calmly looked at the battle situation in front of him, and said with a mocking smile: "Surrounded?"
"This is not a siege, but a bloom in the center! As long as we defend Qu'a City, reinforcements from all walks of life will be on the periphery, forming a huge encirclement network and eating up these 100,000 enemy troops in one bite."
"General Cheng Lian, save some energy! We will have to counterattack then."
Before he finished speaking, a wolf soldier was seen galloping from the city.
"Lord, I have a message from a flying eagle: Zhang Liao led an army of 800 tigers and soldiers to defeat a hundred thousand Wu soldiers outside Hefei City. In this battle, more than 20 enemy generals were killed, 20,000 enemy troops were wiped out, and 30,000 surrendered troops were subdued. .”
Just as the wolf soldier finished speaking, another wolf soldier suddenly arrived and announced:
"Lord, General Zang Ba has just sent a military report: 30,000 wolf soldiers and 8,000 wolf cavalry have been mobilized from Xuzhou and are crossing the Yangtze River south. They will arrive at Quacheng at noon the day after tomorrow."
After hearing the two military reports, Gao Yi raised his head and laughed, and said to Cheng Lian: "How is it? The center is blooming! As long as Zhou Yu dares not to retreat, I will make him never come back."
At the same time, in the Jiangdong camp outside the city, Zhou Yu had also received information about the Battle of Hefei.
And we learned that there are already a large number of enemy troops in the direction of Xuzhou, and they are crossing the river in batches to go south. They are only more than 200 miles away from Qu'acheng.
"High thief, I, Zhou Yu, are at odds with you!"
"Pass my military order, no matter what the cost, we must seize it before nightfall..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Su tried to dissuade him.
"Grand Governor, don't act on your own arrogance! In the battle of Hefei, we have been defeated like a mountain. On the other hand, the high-ranking thieves are holding the power of victory and their morale is as bright as a rainbow. How can we fight head-on?"
"Let's...hey! Let's negotiate peace with the high thief!"
"Negotiating peace?" Zhou Yu murmured like a deflated ball in an instant: "Negotiating peace?...But how can I be willing to accept so many Jiangdong's disciples who died in the battle outside Qu'a City!"
"If we can't wipe out the high-ranking thieves in this battle, they will become a serious problem for me in Jiangdong in the future!"
Zhou Yu's heart was bleeding. Unlike Sun Quan, who had a cold nature, he valued the lives of his subordinates.
In order to kill Gao Yi this time, many of Zhou Yu's old soldiers who had followed him across Jiangdong had died in the battle at Qu'a City and could not sleep forever.
Now if Zhou Yu is asked to make peace with Gao Yi, he really can't do it!
But if he chooses to fight Gao Yi to the end, Quacheng will inevitably become a huge cemetery and the burial place for more Jiangdong disciples.
Seeing Zhou Yu's slightest move, Lu Su hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and continued to persuade:
"The difficulties of life are like the endless river. Although we have the ambition to go east to the sea, the process is slow and the journey is difficult. However, the water of the river will always enter the sea."
"Gong Jin is a talented person in this world, how can he belittle himself because of a mere defeat? A temporary concession is by no means cowardly, but to make better progress in the future."
"Now that our Jiangdong has been settled, everything is in ruins, and the eldest son has suffered the jealousy of God, and died in the sea of fire. We, Jiangdong, have few soldiers and few people, and the land is barren. We really have no energy left to continue fighting with the high-ranking thieves to the end."
"For the current plan, we can only endure the moment of anger, secretly develop and accumulate strength, watch the right time, and then strike boldly to give the high thief a fatal blow."
Zhou Yu has been extremely intelligent since he was a child. How could he not know the truth of Lu Su's words? However, he could not hide the pain in his heart. He turned around and sighed softly:
"Zijing, I'm tired. I'll leave the peace negotiation to you with full authority!"
"Quacheng is our gateway to the northeast of the Yangtze River. We must protect it at all costs, otherwise we will have no chance of advancing northward to the Central Plains."
Looking at Zhou Yu who had lost his soul.
Lu Su also suddenly felt a headache.
Save Quacheng?
Are you kidding me?
How to protect it!
It’s not watermelon!
Who dares to keep it safe?
Lu Su secretly had a headache, and felt regretful about why he had so much to eat that he would propose peace.
Isn't this just shooting yourself in the foot?
Suddenly, Lu Su glanced out of the corner of his eye and noticed Bu Zhi, who was silently eating melon and watching a show next to him.
After tidying up his appearance a little, Lu Su walked towards Bu Zhi and said kindly with a smile on his face:
"Brother Zishan, you just heard that the Grand Governor has left all the peace negotiations to me, so can you please serve as an envoy and go to Quacheng for a visit?"
Bu Zhao's heart suddenly thought, and he secretly exclaimed that something was wrong!
Just when he was about to find an excuse to evade, Lu Su interrupted with a sinister smile: "Brother Zishan, you are new to our Jiangdong camp. You won't refuse your first mission just because of this trivial difficulty, right?"
Hearing this, Bu Zhao's face was covered with black lines!
Astonished, I was speechless.
