    Chapter 348: Mizhouro, dead?

    Zhou Yu, are you dead?  !

    Yan Liang thought his ears were deceiving him until the scout excitedly repeated the shocking information.

    There was silence for a moment in the big tent, and then cheers erupted like a mountain roar and a tsunami.

    On the occasion of the battle, the enemy's coach suddenly died suddenly. This was simply good news sent from heaven. How could the generals present not be excited.

    Even Yan Liang had to admit that at this moment, he was excited about Zhou Yu's death.

    Zhou Yu, a genius Confucian general, is the sharpest weapon in Soochow. Once Zhou Yu dies, Soochow will be of no use.

    Lu Su was good at running the army and was good at strategy, but he was far inferior to Zhou Yu in commanding troops in combat.

    As for Lu Meng, who was once one of the four commanders of Soochow, he has now become his favorite general, while Lu Xun, considering his age, is just starting out at this time, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

    Zhou Yu¡¯s death will wipe out Soochow, and the entire Yangtze River will lose one of the biggest stumbling blocks.

    For a moment, Yan Liang also fell into ecstasy.

    At this time, Xu Shu asked calmly: "Did you witness Zhou Yu's sudden death with your own eyes?"

    The scout replied: "You guys did not see Zhou Yu's sudden death. The news came from the Wu army."

    Xu Shu nodded and turned to Yan Liang.

    Yan Liang, who was in excitement, immediately understood what Xu Shu meant. He was reminding Yan Liang that it was still unclear whether Zhou Yu was really dead or fake. It was too early to be happy at this time.

    Yan Liang calmed down quickly and calmed down to think carefully. It was indeed a bit strange that Zhou Yu died so suddenly this week.

    During the battle in Jiangxia, Zhou Yu suffered from a heart attack due to qi, blood, and heart disease. He returned to Wuzhong to recuperate for more than half a year. Yan Liang naturally knew about this.

    Therefore, this time he heard the news of Ling Tong's surrender. Under this stimulation, his old illness relapsed, and it was not impossible that he died in a rage. This was also the reason why Yan Liang was overjoyed after hearing the news of Zhou Yu's sudden death.

    However, in the past, Zhou Yu had faked his own death to deceive Cao Ren. With this "criminal record", Yan Liang could not rule out that Zhou Yu's death was also suspected of taking advantage of the situation.

    Thinking of this, Yan Liang said: "This Zhou Yu is very cunning. Before there is any conclusive evidence, you can't take it lightly. Send an order to all camps to strengthen their vigilance and send out twice as many scouts and agents to investigate."  Wu people are false and true.¡±

    Faced with the news of Zhou Yu¡¯s death, Yan Liang chose to be cautious.

    While the camps were on alert, the scouts also sneaked into the Wu camp nearly twenty miles away to closely monitor the movements of the Wu people.

    ? ######

    Twenty miles east of Wuping, there is the Wu army camp.

    There was an atmosphere of sadness throughout the Wu army. The soldiers gathered around the fire in twos and threes, all of them with sad faces, and many of them had tears in their eyes.

    The news that Governor Zhou was so angry that he vomited blood and fell off his horse the day before yesterday quickly spread throughout the camp.

    Now a few days have passed and Governor Zhou has not inspected the camps. Although officers at all levels have repeatedly claimed that Governor Zhou is fine, the news that Governor Zhou has died of illness has spread like wildfire.

    Zhou Yu cherishes his soldiers and has always been respected by Wu soldiers. Now that they learned that Zhou Yu died of illness, how could the soldiers not feel sad about it.

    "Besides, the battle between the two armies was imminent, but the commander died suddenly. How could the soldiers not be uneasy and sad?

    If Yan Jun takes advantage of this moment to attack the camp, what should we do?

    Cheng Pu passed by military tents one after another and looked around at the depressed soldiers, the worry on his face getting heavier.

    The curtain was lifted, and Cheng Pu entered the Chinese army's tent with heavy steps.

    As soon as Fang entered the tent, the gloom on Cheng Pu's face disappeared.

    When I turned into the inner tent, I saw the handsome man sitting around the fire, quietly reading the slips.

    Although his face was a little pale and he would cough lightly from time to time, his handsome face still shone with vitality.

    "Captain, your injury has not healed yet, so you should rest more." Cheng Pu advised with cupped hands.

    Zhou Yu raised his head and saw that it was Cheng Pu, so he put the slip down and said with a smile, "I'm not that delicate. If I vomit a few mouthfuls of blood, I won't die."

    With that said, Zhou Yu motioned for Cheng Pu to come forward and take a seat.

    Cheng Pu sat down around the fire and sighed: "To be honest, when I heard the news that the governor vomited blood and fell from his horse, I was really shocked. I thought that if the governor had something wrong with him, I really didn't know what to do.  "

      "When I heard that Ling Tong actually surrendered to Yan Liang, I was so angry that I vomited blood. But at that moment, I thought of a plan. When the opportunity came, I pretended to fall off the horse."

    Zhou Yu¡¯s words were quite proud.

    Cheng Pu sighed, "I never expected that Ling Tong would be such a greedy person and afraid of death. When Lord Yi died under the arrows of such people, his reputation was really tarnished."

    "Leave it to the lord to deal with Ling Tong's surrender of the enemy. What we have to do now is how to turn this situation around. Old general, is there any movement from Yan Liang?"

    Cheng Pu suppressed his sigh and said, "I came here this time just for this matter. The governor's plan of cheating death is certainly a clever one, but in the past few days, Yan Liang has not taken the opportunity to come here.  Instead, they strengthened their vigilance and sent out scouts to approach our army. I think this thief is very suspicious, and the governor¡¯s plan may not be able to lure him into taking the bait.¡±

    Hearing Cheng Pu¡¯s words, Zhou Yu¡¯s brows gradually knitted together.

    He stood up and walked around the tent, his eyes revealing a flood of thoughts.

    Taishi Ci was defeated, Ling Tong surrendered to the enemy, and he himself vomited blood and fell from his horse. These losses were not small. If Yan Liang could not be induced to take advantage of the opportunity to rob the camp, wouldn't all the losses be in vain?

    How good is my reputation as Zhou Yu?

    "Yan Liang is a thief, and he has many wise and resourceful people under his command. It seems that if you want to trick him into falling into the trap, you will have to spend a lot of effort"

    Zhou Yu kept pacing, clapping his fists, and thinking hard about strategies.

    Suddenly, Zhou Yu stopped suddenly. When he turned around, Cheng Pu could see a strange and confident sneer on that handsome face.

    "Since Yan Liang is so cautious and wants to deceive him, he must make this trick of cheating death more realistic."

    Cheng Pu looked happy and said hurriedly: "Does the Governor have any clever ideas?"

    Zhou Yu then moved closer and told Cheng Pu his strategy.

    After hearing this, Cheng Pu couldn't help but have a cryptic look on his old face. He raised his thumb and praised: "The governor's plan is really brilliant. Even if Yan Liang has ten heads, he will definitely fall into the trap."

    Zhou Yu looked proud and smiled slightly.

    ? ######

    Three days later, Wu people finally had new news.

    Overnight, the Wu army was covered with white flags. Tens of thousands of Wu soldiers were all wearing linen and mourning for their dead Zhou governor.

    The mourning of the Wu people further proved the fact that Zhou Yu was dead, which made all the generals of the Yan army happy and excited.

    The passionate generals asked Yan Liang to fight and led his troops to attack. Taking advantage of Wu's leaderless army and low morale, they attacked his camp in one fell swoop.

    However, Yan Liang was not in a hurry to launch an attack.

    Although the chance that Zhou Yu is dead is very high, Yan Liang knows that there is still Cheng Pu in the Wu army, a veteran with rich operations.

    With the sudden death of the coach, Cheng Pu will definitely be wary of Yan Liang taking the opportunity to attack. At this time, it is obvious that the time is not yet ripe to launch a full-scale attack.

    Yan Liang suppressed the generals' desire to fight, remained stationary, and continued to closely observe the enemy's situation.

    A few days later, the scouts reported back, and the Wu army began to break out of camp and retreat toward Ku County.

    Facts have proved that Yan Liang's judgment of Cheng Pu's ability is still very accurate.

    Cheng Pu did not lead the army to evacuate in a hurry. Instead, he sent troops to the lower reaches of the Whirlpool River to prepare the next battalion. Then the army retreated to the new camp in an orderly manner, and only retreated ten miles a day.

    Cheng Pu¡¯s move was naturally to prevent a hasty retreat and an unstable military situation, which Yan Liang took the opportunity to use his troops to cover up.

    Although Yan Liang admired Cheng Pu's sophistication, Yan Liang did not give up hope of pursuing the Wu army. After all, this was a God-given opportunity. If he could take this opportunity to annihilate the Wu army, Sun Quan's strength would definitely be severely hit.  , at that time, it would be much easier for Yan Liang to destroy Wu.

    So Yan Liang led his army and followed the Wu army all the way, trying to find an opportunity to launch an attack.

    Three days later, Yan Liang entered every third camp left by the Wu people.

    Although the entire camp was empty, Yan Liang could still see from the remaining traces that the camp was set up in a very orderly manner, which shows Cheng Pu's ability to manage the army.

    "Cheng Pu is indeed a seasoned expert. I have been following you for so long. Is it possible that Cheng Pu really has no flaws at all"

    Looking around at the ruins, Yan Liang sighed secretly.

    This place is only more than forty miles away from Ku County. After a few more days of following this, after the Wu army retreats to Ku County, he will return to Ku County.There was no opportunity to attack.

    While I was thinking, the sound of horse hoofbeats sounded, and Zhang Liao came riding his horse.

    "My lord, now is the time to launch an attack. Please order the attack quickly." Zhang Liao shouted excitedly.

    Yan Liang's expression perked up. He knew that Zhang Liao was quite resourceful. He must be confident enough if he dared to take charge of the battle like this.

    Yan Liang asked happily: "Wen Yuan, what tricks have you seen?"

    Zhang Liao glanced around, moved his horse a few steps, and pointed the whip at a military stove on the ground. "On the surface, the Wu people seemed to be retreating in a very orderly manner, but these military stoves exposed their weakness."

    "What do you mean?" Yan Liang stared at the military stove on the ground, vaguely seeming to have guessed something.

    "On the way here, I counted the military stoves in each Wu camp. I found that the number of military stoves was decreasing camp by camp. The decrease in military stoves means that Wu soldiers are constantly fleeing and decreasing.  The military morale of the Wu people has been shattered. This is a God-given opportunity. If our army does not take the opportunity to launch a full-scale attack, how long will it take? "

    Zhang Liao¡¯s excited words revealed his reason.

    The basis for his judgment was indeed the same as what Yan Liang had guessed.

    Zhou Yu died suddenly, the people of Wu mourned, the army retreated, the soldiers fled, and the army was reduced sharply

    Various signs flashed through Yan Liang's mind. He stared at the small earthen bed and murmured: "Could it be that it's really time to attack"

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    Brother Feng is afraid that he won't be able to get the 12,000 update tickets yesterday. There are three updates in a row this week, and he didn't go out on the weekend.
