Chapter 655 No Chance to Play

Next to Zhou Yu, Deputy General Zhou Ning said softly: "General, do you think these two people are really loyal to you? Or do they have ulterior motives?"

Zhou Yu sneered: "Whether they have evil intentions or not, they have no chance to show it!"

Zhou Ning was stunned: "Huh?"

Zhou Yu said softly: "Send the order, the army will withdraw from Moling tomorrow and set up camp in Hushu!"

Zhou Ning became more and more stunned: "Huh?"

Zhou Yu: "Ah what, hurry up and execute the order!"

Zhou Ning bowed and cupped his hands: "No."

next morning.

Cheng Pu led the army to Moling, but found that the defenders of Moling had all retreated, leaving only an empty city.

On the main hall, Cheng Puduan sits at the head, with a thousand civil and military personnel next to him, lined up on both sides.

report!

There was a report from outside the hall, and a small official entered the hall, clasping his fists and cupping his hands: "Report to the general, come to the horse to report, Zhou Yu's army has set up camp in Hushu!"

Cheng Pu was stunned: "Familiar with the lake?"

The soldiers were even more indifferent.

Veteran Han Dang pinched his beard and said softly, "Hushu? Zhou Yu, what does this mean? He even abandoned the strong city of Moling and retreated to the small county of Hushu. Maybe there is some plan."

Cheng Pulue pondered for a while: "I heard that Zhou Yu is resourceful and resourceful, and he is the youngest of the five generals under Ye Feng's command. This man is proficient in soldiers and horses, and has good plans in his belly. There must be deep meaning in this move."

"General Zhu!"

Cheng Pu turned to look at Zhu Zhi, who surrendered last night, and said softly, "You have been in the enemy camp before, what do you think of Zhou Yu, a thief?"

Zhu Zhi stepped forward, cupped his fists and cupped his hands: "General, Zhou Yu is indeed a handsome talent, and he is generous, broad-minded, and has good plans, which is admirable!"

"Oh? How can you get such an evaluation from the general?" Cheng Pu was surprised.

"If Zhou Yu really has this ability, why did he retreat to Hushu?" Han Dang was even more puzzled.

"What is it, this is completely unreasonable." Dong Xi muttered to himself.

"perhaps……"

Zhu Zhilue pondered for a while, and confided his inner thoughts: "Perhaps Zhou Yu didn't want to be an enemy of our old Sun family, so he chose to retreat and stay in Hushu!"

Cheng Pu was a little confused, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Only then did Zhu Zhi tell Cheng Pu everything that happened in the Zhou camp last night.

Similarly, he also told Cheng Pu about Ma Zhong and Tan Xiong's undercover work in Zhouying.

Si!

Cheng Pu couldn't help but gasped, and fell into deep thought.

He recalled the conversation with Lu Su in prison that day.

I have to admit that Zhou Yu's analysis is very reasonable, or this is really just Liu Yao's plan to slow down the army. Once the bandits are repelled, the tragedy of the Sun family will be staged in another way.

Han Dang let out a long breath: "If it's really because of Bo Fu that Zhou Yu's son backed away, it would be awe-inspiring!"

Jiang Qin held his fists in his arms: "I don't comment on how Zhou Yu is, but our Majesty, I'm afraid it's really what Zhou Yu said. If Zhou Yu didn't hit Wanling soon, he probably wouldn't have issued an edict!"

Zhou Tai snorted coldly: "It's fine to suppress me in normal times, but you want me to work for you in wartime. Our Majesty, it's really a good plan!"

"Shut up!"

Cheng Pu sternly stopped, and fierce eyes shot out from his eyes: "Your majesty, this is a serious crime that will lead to beheading. Don't you know that walls have ears and you need to be cautious in your words and deeds?"

All the soldiers were indifferent.

quite a while.

Han Dang said: "Demou, let's continue to lead the army forward and see how Zhou Yu will react.

Zhu Zhi tentatively said: "What if Zhou Yu continues to retreat?"

Cheng Pu breathed out: "That will prove that he is sincerely for the Sun family, and we can garrison Hushu, and at the same time send a report to His Majesty, requesting to find the general as soon as possible and preside over the Yangtze River water battle!"

Han Dang nodded his head: "After all, the water battle is handled by the general alone, and the coordination of various battleships is also commanded by him himself. We just have a reason to force His Majesty."

Cheng Pu gritted his steel teeth tightly: "We have paid absolute sincerity, this time we want to see how His Majesty will react, if the general comes back safe and sound, it will be fine."

"if……"

Cheng Pu took a deep breath and didn't continue talking.

But everyone present knew what Cheng Pu was going to do next.

Everyone was speechless.

Because they have formed a tacit understanding.

make up one's mind.

Cheng Pu led the army and set off from Moling on the same day, heading straight for Hushu.

Sure enough, before Cheng Pu's army arrived, Zhou Yu led the army towards the banks of the Yangtze River and retreated to the surface of the river.

At the same time, a report was rushed to Wanling Palace.

Chongde Hall.

With the sound of bells and drums, the court meeting officially began.

Emperor Liu Yao sat on top of the dragon with a happy expression on his face. Since Cheng Pu led the army to set off, he was finally able to sleep peacefully.

The little yellow gate next to him raised his voice and said, "Play early if you have something to do, and leave the court if you have nothing to do!"

Lu Su flashed out from under him, cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, the edict has been issued for three days now, and it has spread to all the counties and counties in Danyang, and even some nearby counties and counties have been involved, but there is no news about the general at all."

"My minister is worried."

Liu Yao frowned, "Huh? Didn't Cheng Pu lead the army out?"

Lu Su was slightly stunned, and said softly: "Although we have already gone to war, and we have taken back Moling, but..."

Liu Yao waved his hand: "Tell Cheng Pu to let him fight on the front line with peace of mind, and I will do my best to search for the general."

Lu Su took a deep breath.

He was quite angry, but he couldn't show it.

As a last resort, he could only open his mouth and say, "Your Majesty, according to this offensive, Cheng Pu will drive Zhou Yu back to the Yangtze River sooner or later, but the battle on the Yangtze River requires a general!"

Liu Yao frowned: "Why?"

Lu Su explained: "Because the previous Yangtze river water battle was all controlled by the general, command, dispatch, and formation, no one can replace it. Therefore, I believe that we should hurry up and find the general!"

"I know!"

Liu Yao responded, and then said, "Haven't I been sending people to look for it all the time? But in this world, finding someone is like finding a needle in a haystack. It's not that easy."

"His Majesty……"

Just as Lu Su opened his mouth, Liu Yao waved his hand and stopped immediately, saying, "Zijing, not to mention that Cheng Pu has not pushed Zhou Yu back to the Yangtze River, even if he has already pushed Zhou Yu back to the Yangtze River, why can't he command the water battle in the east of the Yangtze River?"

report!

Just as Lu Su was about to say something, there was a hurried report from outside the hall.

Liu Yao took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly, waved his hand and said, "Xuan!"

Little Huangmen Buddha dust flicked: "Xuan."

A messenger turned into the hall, cupped his fists and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty, General Cheng Pu has sent a battle report!"
