Chapter 1947: Center of War

The atmosphere in the middle of the coalition was a little panicked. At this moment, all of them knew that the main force of the opponent had arrived. They only felt that the current situation was quite unfavorable to their side, and everyone felt at a loss in their hearts.

The main force of the Wu army quickly arranged defense lines in the streets and alleys near the Dongchengmen. They demolished many houses and blocked the entire streets and alleys with the demolished wood and stone construction, connecting them with the buildings on both sides, forming an inaccessible barrier.

On the city walls on both sides of the Dongcheng Gate Tower, Wu and Cao's army were also carrying out similar operations. They quickly transported wood and stones from the city and built high walls on the walls connected to the city gate tower to prevent their opponents from breaking through the city gate!

While the coalition forces were busy with their homework, the main army led by Zhao Yanran finally arrived outside the East City Gate.

Surrounded by Ma Yunlu and Wang Yi and others, Zhao Yanran rode into the East City Gate and then arrived at the city gate.

Seeing this, Zhao Yun immediately stepped forward to pay homage: "The last general will pay homage to the Grand Commander!"

Zhao Yanran smiled and nodded. She looked at her brother, her eyes full of admiration. Then she looked into the city and saw a busy and busy scene in the city not far away.

What a character Zhao Yanran is? He saw the other party’s intentions at first glance and smiled and said, “They don’t plan to give up Chaisang! This is going to be stalemate with us for a long time!”

Zhao Yun said: "What the Grand Commander said is very true. The reason why the enemy had this idea was because of the importance of Chaisang, and they believed that they could fight against our army with the nearly 600,000 troops in their hands and numerous civilian troops!"

Zhao Yanran smiled and nodded, looked at Zhao Yun, and asked, "What's going on with Mr. Shi Yuan?"

Zhao Yun clasped his fists and said, "I received the news not long ago that they have successfully retreated into Jiangxia and are currently not moving."

Zhao Yanran frowned and said, "The report I received earlier said that they were poisoned by the enemy and suffered heavy casualties, so they had to give up the Fushui River line. What is the casualties?"

Zhao Yun shook his head and said, "I have not received any relevant reports, and the situation is not clear. Mr. Shiyuan should have sent a letter to Luoyang to ask for help. As long as the master arrives, he should be able to escape danger!"

Zhao Yanran thought for a moment, looked into the city, and said to the messenger beside him: "The messenger vanguard, the heavy armored infantry, and the rest of the troops set up camp outside the city."

The messenger held his fists and ran down.

Zhao Yanran thought for a while and said to another messenger beside her: "The command of General Wei Yan, the Yellow River Navy, to come to Chaisang as fast as possible to join our army, and to instruct Ganning's Jingzhou Navy to advance eastward and join us immediately, and at the same time, ask the logistics and logistics team to arrive as soon as possible."

The messenger clasped his fists and agreed and walked quickly.

Zhao Yanran walked into the city gate tower and asked her personal soldiers to bring pens, ink and silk to spread them on the table. She sat down behind the table and quickly wrote two letters of flying pigeons, handed them to the female official next to her, and ordered: "One letter is sent to Jiangxia, and the other letter is sent to the husband!"

The female official ordered her to take the silk and then quickly walked away with a promise.

Wuxi, a camp outside the city.

It was already late at night, but Liu Xian was still standing in front of the map and looking at the Chaisang on the map. Not long ago, Liu Xian received a letter from Zhao Yanran and learned about the battle situation on the Chaisang side, so his current thoughts were all on the Chaisang side.

Liu Xian looked at Chaisang and murmured: "Chaisang! The plan really cannot keep up with the changes! Unexpectedly, Sun Quan and Cao Cao planned such an attack. The original plan to seize Wujun has to be completely changed!"

Dian Wei quickly stepped in and presented a book of Fei Ge's letters, saying, "Brother, Fei Ge's letters sent by Wenpin!"

Liu Xian turned around, took the letter, opened it and looked at it, frowned and said, "The Wu army's defenders are being mobilized, and they may want to launch an attack on Wenpin and others!"

Liu Xian frowned and murmured: "The situation of the battle changed. The original surprise weapon now seems to be in a cocoon! Our army has difficulty mobilizing reinforcements, so we can only ask them to guard against each other and not be careless!"

Then he returned to the desk, picked up a pen and wrote an order. After thinking about it, he took another blank piece of silk and wrote a second order. This order was for Zhao Yanran, giving her full authority to preside over the Battle of Chaisang, and at the same time, he ordered Jiang Xia's army to be unified under her command.

After writing two orders, he picked them up and checked them, then handed them to Dian Wei, and told him: "This order was sent to Wenpin, and this one was sent to Yanran."

Dian Wei took the next two pieces of silk, and with a promise, he quickly walked down.

While Liu Xian was making arrangements, Sun Quan and Cao Cao also ordered the opponent's army that Sun Quan had already ordered Sun Jing and Lu Meng to guard against each other and not to go out rashly.

At the same time, it was ordered that the Kuaiji County and other places in the south of Wu County, as well as Danyang County City and Yuzhang County in the south of Chaisang be quickly summoned civilian troops. No one is allowed to disobey, otherwise it will be punished as a communist enemy.

Cao Cao ordered Cao Ren, Li Dian, Sima Yi and others to strictly guard the Lishui defense line and cooperate closely with the Wu army guarding Danyang County, and not to go out rashly.

While issuing these orders, Sun Quan and Cao Cao discussed and sent a message to Liu Bei in Guiyang County, asking him to wait for an opportunity to counterattack Changsha to support the main battlefield.

Before he knew it, Zhao Yanran's main force had arrived in Chaisang for more than a day, but Zhao Yanran still had no intention of launching an attack.

Sun Quan stood on the pavilion of the King of Wu's Mansion and looked at the direction of the East City Gate without any movement, feeling quite uneasy.

He couldn't help but say to Cao Cao on the side: "King of Wei, why didn't Zhao Yanran attack yet? Could it be that he was preparing for some conspiracy?"

Cao Cao thought, "Don't worry, King Wu. Zhao Yanran must be waiting for the arrival of heavy equipment, so he will not move for the time being. We have made all preparations, so we can respond to changes in the same way as we remain unchanged!"

Sun Quan felt that what Cao Cao said made sense and nodded.

Zhou Yu thought, "The enemy's heavy weapons are very sharp. If the enemy is allowed to launch an attack, it is probably not good for our army. It is better to take the initiative to counterattack before the enemy's heavy weapons have come up!

Even if we cannot defeat the enemy, as long as we can suppress the opponent's agility, it will be very beneficial for us to defend Chaisang!"

Thinking of the previous attack, Sun Quan not only did not work at all, but also suffered a lot of losses. He couldn't help but frown and said, "Although what Gongjin said makes sense, it may be inappropriate to do so!

The enemy's combat power is strong. Although our army has the advantage in number, if we take the initiative to attack, we may be..." Sun Quan looked very unconfident.

Cao Cao said: "I think what Gongjin said makes sense. Instead of waiting for death, it is better to give it a try. If this battle can be successful, even if it cannot reverse the situation in one fell swoop, it will be very beneficial for our army to defend Chaisang!"??
