As Zhou Yu expected, Cao Cao and Cheng Yu had already made preparations to send troops when they formulated this plan.
Although Cao Cao was arranging his troops and horses with great fanfare and threatened to attack Yuan Shu, in fact, most of those troops and horses were disguised as recruits and county soldiers. The real elite troops had already quietly marched in batches to the junction of Cao Cao and Sun Ce's forces. move.
When the news from Tian Ji came back, the Cao army that had arrived happened to split into two groups and attack quickly. This attack caught Sun Ce's forces off guard. The cities at the junction of the two forces were almost completely destroyed before they could react. Cao Cao captured it with lightning speed, and both Sun Bi and Sun Fu, who were from the Sun clan, died in the battle.
Brothers Sun Bi and Sun Fu are the sons of Sun Jian's half-brother Sun Qiang, and cousins of Sun Ce and Sun Quan. With this blood relationship, the status of these two people in the Sun family will naturally not be low. Moreover, due to Sun Qiang's early death, Sun Jian always loved these two nephews very much and regarded them as his own.
Even two such important figures of the Sun family have been killed in the battle, which shows that the situation has become extremely bad for the Sun family.
Although at this time, Lu Su mobilized troops and recruited new soldiers on a large scale, he still could not avoid the situation of continuous defeat. There is no way, most of the Sun family's troops are with Sun Ce and Sun Wu. Lu Su's clever woman can't make a meal without rice. Being able to fight the war to this extent already shows Lu Su's ability.
At the same time, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were under considerable pressure. Lu Su was dealing with the troops of Cao Ren and Wei Wuji, while Sun Ce and Zhou Yu had to deal with Cao Cao himself after reuniting with Tian Ji.
"Why on earth, why did such a big change happen in just a few days!" Sun Wu walked into the tent angrily. Before he knew it, the situation had deteriorated to such an extent. Thinking about what happened to the Sun family in the past year or so, Sun Wu couldn't help but feel tired.
Poor Sun Wu, he was an old man. After receiving Zhou Yu's letter and hurriedly arranging military affairs, he flew over without stopping for a moment. He was no better than a young man. He had been running wildly for two days and two nights. By now, even his body and bones were falling apart. Even entering this big tent was helped in by Luo Hongxin.
Moreover, as soon as he entered the big account, the originally majestic Sun Wu found a seat and collapsed on it, which showed that he was indeed extremely exhausted at this time.
Zhou Yu naturally cannot tell all the complexity of things here with just one letter, but even so, just through Zhou Yu's little story, Sun Wu can also imagine that this time the Sun family really has reached a critical moment of life and death. If not, how could Sun Wu be willing to commit such a huge crime and forcefully come here.
"Grand Governor, this is what happened..." Cheng Gai, who was still the last in seniority, introduced to Sun Wu what had happened in the past few days.
"Uncle!" A shout came. Although it sounded very loud, if you taste it carefully, you may find a sense of weakness and powerlessness in it.
"Bo Fu, why are you here!" As soon as he saw the visitor, Sun Wu stood up despite his tiredness.
Even if he was not on Sun Ce's side before, Sun Wu knew very well that Sun Ce's physical condition was not very good now, but now Sun Ce has actually started to wear armor. This is because he really doesn't want his own life!
In fact, the little bully Sun Ce is far more tenacious than others think. As Cao Cao launched an all-out attack, the Sun family was defeated one after another. After all, everything could not be hidden, and it was inevitable that it reached the ears of the little overlord Sun Ce.
A series of bad news came, both about his father and the recent series of defeats. However, Sun Ce did not suffer from the recurrence of arrow wounds like before. Instead, he ignored everyone's dissuasion and put on the armor himself. Although he did not go into battle, this move Still boosted the morale of the soldiers.
But although the little bully Sun Ce is mentally strong, his willpower cannot make up for his current physical condition. His face becomes paler day by day. If this situation continues, if he does not continue to recuperate, one day he may be exhausted.
"Uncle, now my Sun family is on the verge of life and death. The only one who can save our Sun family now is my uncle!" Sun Ce actually gave a big salute to Sun Wu and then said.
"Bo Fu, get up quickly. What are you doing? My uncle will do his best." Sun Wu hurriedly helped Sun Ce up. Although he is Sun Ce's uncle, after all, there is a difference between monarch and minister, and he cannot afford such a great gift from Sun Ce.
Hearing this, Sun Ce's intense melancholy for days finally subsided. As a nephew, he was very aware of his uncle's talents. In fact, the stage for the Sun clan was too small to allow Sun Wu to fully display his talents.
"Master, you came here in a hurry, I'm afraid that Xian Zhen took advantage of Master's absence and came in!" Zhou Yu interjected with some worry.
Previously, Sun Wu had been leading troops to defend against Xian Zhen. Now that Sun Wu is gone, I'm afraid Xian Zhen will not miss such a great opportunity once he finds out.
"Don't worry! When I left, I had handed over the affairs to Sun Chengzong, and with the help of Wang Jian who is good at guarding, there will be no problems in a short time!" Sun Wu explained.
What Zhou Yu could think of, Sun Wu would naturally think of. After all, regardless of the gap between the two men, Zhou Yu is not yet in a complete state at this time, and is much worse than Sun Wu in this regard. Therefore, when Sun Wu left, he had arranged things as properly as possible.
Speaking of Wang Jian, Sun Wu had to lament that this disciple of his was quite deficient in all aspects compared to his other disciple Zhou Yu. However, if we just talk about defense, then Wang Jian is very powerful and a real expert.
Wang Jian, his most famous battle was the Battle of Diaoyu City.
In 1259 AD, Mongolia claimed to have hundreds of thousands of troops and besieged Hezhou Diaoyu City on Tongchuanfu Road in the Southern Song Dynasty, but they were never able to conquer it. During the war, even the Mongolian Khan Meng Ge died in the battle. The defender, General Wang Jian, can be called a Chinese hero.
Afterwards, Kublai Khan established the Yuan Dynasty with the support of Han officials. It was not until the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty that the situation was over. Kublai Khan promised never to harm the people in the city, and the defender of Diaoyu City abandoned the city and surrendered in 1279 AD. After abandoning the city, no one begged for mercy. All the 32 generals who defended the city drew their swords and committed suicide. They can be said to be loyal and loyal throughout the ages.
In fact, although Sun Wu mentored many generals of the Sun family in daily life, the only two people he actually accepted as his disciples were Zhou Yu and Wang Jian.
