Chapter 717 Attack on Chaisang

"What does Mr. mean by finding a new way?" Ouyang Shuo asked.

"Go straight to the Yellow Dragon and attack Chaisang." Jia Xu was unequivocal, "Chaisang is currently empty of troops. If you use your troops properly, you can defeat them with one blow. If Chaisang falls, the danger of Yiling will be resolved."

Ouyang Shuo smiled, nodded and said, "Sir, I agree with Gu. Pass down the order, quickly clean up the battlefield, go to Chibi to rest for a day, replenish supplies, and then dispatch firewood!"

"No!" Zheng He took the order and left.

Ouyang Shuo summoned a courier and asked the courier to bring a secret letter to Feng Prisonhuang. There were only eight words in the letter: stick to it for ten days, and the situation will change.

*************

Xunyang County, Chaisang.

The water of the Yangtze River flows to the foot of Lushan Mountain and meets Poyang Lake, which is the Chaisang of Dagu. This place gathers the beauty of Yansuo Jiangnan, with corridors, pavilions, empty mountains, and misty waters.

Chaisang, now named Jiujiang, is the thoroughfare of Jiushui, guarding the throat of the Yangtze River, and it is a battleground for military strategists.

Before the Battle of Chibi, the Jiangdong Group took Chaisang as its headquarters, stationed troops here, and watched Jiangxia with the eagle eye, with the goal of killing Huang Zu. Zhou Yu has been training the Jiangdong Navy in Poyang Lake for a long time, showing the elegance of the times.

Huang Zu is dead, but Chaisang is still the focus of all parties.

After five days of sailing, the ocean-going fleet finally arrived outside the city of Chaisang. The fleet appears and disappears in the cage of fog and smoke. Ouyang Shuo is wearing armor and a horizontal sword.

"Send someone to inform Sun Quan and persuade him to go out of the city and surrender. I just want to exchange Zhou Yu with him, and I don't want to increase the number of killings. If you don't want to, let the people of Chaisang accompany him to be buried!" Ouyang Shuo said lightly.

"Understood!" Jia Xu took the order.

Jia Xu believed that the king would do what he said, but he hoped that Sun Quan would be tougher.

Chaisang City was built with water and surrounded by water on all sides. For the army, Chaisang is a tough nut to crack, but for the ocean-going fleet, it is the easiest city to win.

As long as the fleet arrives at Chaisang City, the artillery can directly hit the city wall. Because of the natural gun mounts like battleships, the shells can even cross the city wall in one fell swoop and explode in the city.

That kind of lethality is something Chaisang can't stop no matter what.

Therefore, when the Golden Dragon Flag fluttered outside Chaisang City, the interior of Chaisang City was shaken.

"The visitor is not good!"

"What kind of battleship is that? It's almost unheard of!"

"I guess they were the ones who defeated the army of Governor Lu Su and General Huang Gai."

"Then we are not in disaster!"

People in Chaisang City were panicked.

After a while, the special envoy of Shanhai City sent a letter of persuasion.

Sun Quan saw it, and immediately tore it into pieces: "Zhuzi deceived me that no one in Jiangdong called me?!"

...

City Lord's Mansion, Council Hall.

The young Sun Quan sat on the head, with a dignified expression: "The enemy chieftain is coming, do you have a good plan?" Qi returns to Qi, Sun Quan really dare not underestimate the invading enemy.

But it is absolutely impossible for him to go out of the city and surrender like this. A king has the dignity of a king.

Facing Sun Quan's questioning, the civil and military ministers looked at each other in blank dismay. All the real generals in Jiangdong have gone on an expedition, and there are only three or two kittens left in Chaisang, so there is no good strategy to talk about.

Zhang Zhao, the only important minister, is still a surrender faction.

It was also Sun Quan's bad luck.

The mainstay of Wu Guozhong in the later period, Lu Xun, a generation of great talents, was not yet used by Sun Quan at this time, and he was thousands of miles away to scan the copy of Shanyue, slowly accumulating experience, and he has not yet emerged.

Jiang Dong was no stranger to the Shanhai City fleet. Both Lu Su's army and Huang Gai's army fell into the hands of this fleet. Recently, it was reported that even Liu Bei's army fell into the hands of this fleet.

No matter how you look at it, there is no chance of winning.

"Why, are you all scared stupid by the enemy?" Sun Quan was dissatisfied and overbearing.

The young king can't restrain his spirit yet.

The officials in the hall were anxious and uneasy, but they dared not say anything, "My lord, forgive me!"

"Hmph!" Sun Quan was very dissatisfied.

At this moment, a young man stood up, "I can try!"

The youth suddenly became the focus of the audience.

At first glance, it turned out to be the only alien lord in the camp - Xunlong Dianqiu.

"Oh, what's your plan?" Sun Quan's expression softened slightly.

"How can I tell a stranger that I have no clothes and old clothes? You can give it a try and persuade him to retreat." Xunlong tapped his acupuncture points and patted his chest and said, but looked at Zhang Zhao who stood at the top of the group of officials.

The battle of Xunlong Dianxue did not end, it did not get mixed up with Xiongba and the others, but found another way, leading the army to Chaisang alone, intending to subdue Zhang Zhao.

Although Zhang Zhao took the lead in the Battle of Chibi, his reasons are valid and he is not really a softie. When Sun Ce started his business, this person was already a senior official under Sun Ce's account, with both civil and military skills.

Zhang Zhaoshi is a rare talent, especially for Xunlong City, Zhang Zhao's all-round talent in civil and military affairs is more suitable, and can greatly improve the military and political level of Xunlong City.

On this point, Xunlong acupuncture is not confused.

During this period of time, Xunlong Dianxue took advantage of his talent for doing tasks to bombard Zhang Zhao and made good progress. However, Zhang Zhao was still not sure what to say, so Xunlong secretly worried.

The current predicament in Jiangdong is an opportunity for Xunlong acupuncture.

Xunlong Dianxue believes that in order to help him subdue Zhang Zhao, Ouyang Shuo will sell him this face. The two just took this opportunity to eliminate their suspicions, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Sure enough, Xunlong's words made Zhang Zhao turn his head to look at him and nodded.

Seeing Xunlong's acupuncture point made me feel even more determined.

"Then go and try it!"

Sun Quan heard the method of Xunlong acupuncture, but his expression was indifferent. One thing Sun Quan didn't expect too much about this, and the enemy army came all the way, how could they retreat just because of a word? Put it on Sun Quan, I'm afraid he won't agree. The second is that Sun Quan always had some resistance in his heart to this "begging for perfection".

Sun Quan is a fierce tiger.

"yes!"

No matter what Sun Quan thinks about Xunlong acupuncture points, all he wants is Zhang Zhao.

...

Outside Chaisang City, board the Dragon Head.

"Your Majesty, Chaisang said that an old friend is visiting." The personal guard reported back.

"Old man?" Ouyang Shuo was puzzled, what was Sun Quan doing, "Let him in."

"yes!"

Leaning slightly, a mysterious man in a black robe followed the guard and walked into the study.

"Ah!"

Ouyang Shuo really doesn't like such tricks.

The guards retreated, and the mysterious man lifted his hood, naturally he was looking for dragons and acupuncture points.

"Xunlong, it's you!"

This was indeed beyond Ouyang Shuo's expectation.

"It's me." Xunlong smiled.

He didn't want to be recognized by the soldiers of Shanhai City, so he had to wear a black robe to see him.

Then again, it's not a good thing.

Seeing Xunlong acupuncture, Ouyang Shuo felt relieved, he was really worried that this person would be entangled with Di Chen and others. In that case, it will be difficult.

"What is the purpose of Sun Quan asking you to come?" Ouyang Shuo asked.

Immediately, Xunlong tapped his fists, bowed and saluted, and said sincerely, "Please help me!"

"How to say?"

Ouyang Shuo's face was calm, but his heart was already vigilant.

"Is such that……"

Xunlong's acupuncture point explained the cause and effect of the incident in detail.

After hearing this, Ouyang Shuo no longer smiled.

"People's hearts, after all, have changed!"

Ouyang Shuo collected his emotions and said patiently, "Jiangling has fallen, and Yiling is in a hurry. Baihua and Fengyuhuang may collapse at any time. I must ask Sun Quan to recall Zhou Yu. Xunlong, do you understand?"

"That's easy, just ask Sun Quan to issue a military order." Xunlong said.

Ouyang Shuo shook his head, "With Zhou Yu's ingenuity, how could he not understand the principle of 'the king's life will not be accepted'. Zhou Yu can definitely break through Yiling, and come back to ask for orders."

"Zhou Yu will come back only if Sun Quan is captured."

Xunlong Dianxue is speechless.

After a long time, Xunlong's acupuncture points showed a bit of hostility, and he said with a little dissatisfaction: "Brother, can't you really help me once? I have promised Zhang Zhao, if I break my promise, it will be completely ruined. "

"It's not that I won't help you, it's that I can't do anything." Ouyang Shuo said calmly, "Sun Quan surrendered, I can capture Zhang Zhaoyi and hand it over to you, how about that?"

"In that case, how can Zhang Zhao return to his heart!" Xunlong was dissatisfied with acupuncture.

"Then what do you want me to do? Retreat? Watch Bai Hua and the others be defeated by Di Chen?" Ouyang Shuo was a little angry.

"You're biased!" Xunlong Dianqiu also lost his temper, as stubborn as a bull, "You protect Baihua and the others so much, why don't you think about my feelings?"

"I have been with you for the longest time, but you don't help me at all. You said that Shanhai City will not intervene in alliance affairs during the journey, and let us fight on our own. But why do you station an entire army in Obstinate Stone City, but you don't care about Xunlong? Don't care about the life and death of the city?"

"Could it be that my position in the heart of the eldest brother is not as good as that boy's?" After speaking, Xunlong Dianxue was already roaring, venting all the dissatisfaction accumulated in his heart.

Ouyang Shuo's expression remained unchanged, but his face trembled. "Okay, it's good to talk about it! You have finally spoken your heart, and you still can't let go of it after all, can you?"

"That's right!" Xunlong's point acupuncture was completely desperate.

"Let me just ask, is Shanhai City obliged to help you?"

"Hmph!" Xunlong's acupuncture point didn't listen at all.

"Take other people's help as a matter of course. If you don't help, you will be treated badly and even complain. Xun Long, you are really my good brother!" Ouyang Shuo's tone turned cold.

"Don't make yourself so noble." Xunlong's eyes were full of anger, "You help us, don't you want us to be your shield, to fight against [Yanhuang League], just to use each other."

Ouyang Shuo shook his head and didn't want to say anything more.

Speaking of this, brother can't do it.

"Since what do you think, I have nothing to say." Ouyang Shuo paused for a moment, then warned secretly: "You can do it yourself!"

"Don't worry about it, goodbye!"

A trace of remorse flashed in Xunlong's acupuncture point, but the expression on his face was unrelenting, he didn't put on his hood, leaned his neck, and left angrily.

"Your Majesty!" Jia Xu walked in.

"Notify, bombard Chaisang!" Ouyang Shuo ordered coldly.

"yes!"

Jia Xu nodded, turned and left.
