Chapter 40 Cao Shuang captures Jingzhou (Part 2) Cao Shuang wants to pretend to be sick and imitate Lu Meng in white clothes to capture Jingzhou!

 After Wen Qin returned to the camp, he reported the situation of today's battle in the Chinese army's tent. Wen Qin's face turned slightly red and said: "General, the last general is no match for Ding Feng'er today.

It’s all because I am older than Ding Feng and not as physically strong as him. We fought fiercely for a day, and finally I was knocked off the horse by Ding Feng who relied on his youth and physical strength.

At the end of tomorrow, the general must be defeated quickly. Within a hundred moves, he must be beheaded and tens of thousands of holes must be poked in his body!”

Cao Shuang said with concern: "How is General Zhong Ruo's injury? I think you should rest for a few days before helping our Wei army!"

Wen Qin had a bandage on his chest, his upper body was bare and he cupped his hands and said: "General, the last general's injuries are not serious. Although there are minor injuries, they are nothing to worry about. We will definitely capture that Ding Feng tomorrow!"

Zhuge Dan smiled and said: "Zhong Ruo, don't talk nonsense. Why don't you ask someone or Zhong Gong to fight for you tomorrow? I will kill Na Ding Feng under the horse within a hundred moves!"

Cao Shuang patted Wen Qin on the shoulder and said with a smile: "General Zhong Ruo should go down and rest. Tomorrow's battle will be left to the public. General Zhong Gong! Zhong Ruo has been fighting for these days and it's time to rest."



Wen Qin wanted to get another chance to fight tomorrow, so he said eagerly: "General..."

Wang Ling twirled his beard and said from the side: "Zhong Ruo, go down and have a rest. It won't be too late to fight again after you recover from your injury!"

Wen Qin had no choice but to retreat unwillingly, returned to his tent, blew out the oil lamp, and rested gloomily.

Cao Shuang smiled and said: "Generals, what do you think we should do to break this strong city?"

Zhuge Dan cupped his hands and said: "General, I thought I was pretending to be Jingzhou and Honghu to fight against the Dongwu troops, so I pretended to open the gates of Jingzhou at night. By then I will be able to defeat Jingzhou in a single battle!"

Deng Ai said sternly: "General, I think that Zhuge Ke is a man of extraordinary intelligence, so I will use this strategy at this time. If, if other people from Soochow come to defend Jingzhou, we can still try it. However, the one who is guarding Jingzhou now is

Zhuge Ke, however, there is absolutely no way you can deceive him!"

Cao Shuang nodded and said with a smile: "Shizai should be more thoughtful. This strategy cannot be used anymore. We have to think of another strategy!"

Wang Ling stroked his beard and thought for a moment and said: "At this moment, the Wu army has suffered a new defeat, and its morale must be extremely low. If it is not possible, we should take advantage of this opportunity to attack the city in a large scale.

Although the city of Jingzhou is high and fortified, the morale of the defenders is low. We attack it with several times the strength of the Wu army. In a few days, Jingzhou will be defeated!"

In Wuchang City, two defeated generals, Sun Jun and Quan Cong, led 3,000 remnants of the Wu army, which were destroyed by the smoke and fire of the Wei army. The ship was somewhat dilapidated and no longer as majestic as it used to be. The "Yuhuang" ship finally arrived at the first moment of Youshi.

Fanchuan Port outside Wuchang City.

After that, they ordered three thousand soldiers to rest at the naval camp in Fanchuan Port, while Sun Jun and Quan Cong picked two fast horses, put on "smoky makeup", and marched to Wuchang City sixty miles away overnight.

Go.

An hour later, the fast horses under them were so tired that they were frothing at the mouth. They just arrived outside Wuchang Palace. The two dismounted and entered through the east gate and went straight to Taiji Hall. Sun Quan and a group of civil and military officials had already arrived.

Waiting for the two of them to arrive.

After all, the fires among the rivers and lakes in Jingzhou last night were visible across the river, so they had already alerted Sun Quan.

When the chamberlain He Ding woke him up from his sleep, a moment ago he was holding the graceful Mrs. Pan, who was as beautiful as a fairy and as white as snow, while she was doing the great victory in Jingzhou, capturing Cao Wei General Cao Shuang alive, Sikong Wang Ling, and two hundred thousand Jiangdong.

The dream of the younger generation marching northward to dominate the world.

The chamberlain He Ding said anxiously in a high-pitched voice outside the dormitory: "Your Majesty, something serious has happened. Please come out and take a look!"

Sun Quan was awakened from his sweet dream and said angrily: "Why are you so alarmed that you want to disturb my sweet dream!"

He Ding panicked and said: "Your Majesty, at the beginning of Haishi, a fire broke out in the direction of Jingzhou, the Yulin Guard who was on night watch in the city.

It was vaguely visible on the walls of Wuchang Palace. Yu Linwei came to tell the slave about this. The slave did not dare to neglect, so he immediately came to report to His Majesty."

When Sun Quan heard this, he hurriedly sat up from the bed and exclaimed: "Oh no, something happened to the men I sent to ambush the Wei army. Gongxun mistakenly missed me and missed Soochow!"

Sun Quan said again: "My dear concubine, please serve me and change my clothes!"

After a cup of tea, Mrs. Pan helped him put on his clothes. She came out of the South Tower bedroom and looked north in the direction pointed by the chamberlain He Ding. She saw that the fire in the direction of Jingzhou was raging, no less than the fire in Chibi that year, and even

Even better.

Sun Quan murmured to himself in an old voice: "It's really reincarnation and retribution. The fire attack that was inflicted on Cao Wei and Shu Han back then was returned to Cao Jun exactly as it was.

Our 200,000-strong Soochow army is estimated to be finished, and I will probably never have the chance to go north again in my lifetime!"

At this moment, he was ready to accept that all of Soochow's 200,000 troops would be buried in Jingzhou, but there was still a trace of fantasy in his heart, hoping that there would be some leftovers of the 200,000 troops. After all, it was still not possible to save 200,000 troops.

Easy.

The chamberlain He Ding said from the side: "Your Majesty, do you want to send another troop to take a look?"

Sun Quan thought for a while and said: "Let's wait for a while. The current situation is unknown, so it's better to be cautious. After all, I have already sent an army of 200,000 troops, and I still have to use the remaining wealth to defend Jiangdong!"

At the You hour of the next day, Zhuge Ke, the governor of Jingzhou, sent a message to report that Sun Quan's false surrender was no longer possible and that the 200,000-strong Soochow army had been completely wiped out.

When the Jingzhou troops under his command saw the fire set up outside the city, they immediately rushed out of the city to help. However, the Wei army had already prepared on the outside. He had lost thousands of troops and could not save Sun. The two generals Zhang

When the troops were out of trouble, they had no choice but to return to Jingzhou and wait for help. Also sent was Zhuge Ke's tearful apology letter.

When the news of the defeat came back, most of the Manchu civil and military officials in Wuchang submitted a memorial, recommending that the three generals Zhuge Ke, Sun Jun, and Quan Cong be dismissed from their posts and severely punished for the crime of losing 200,000 troops. Only Lu Dai,

Lv Ju and Lu Zhi wrote to each other that victory or defeat is a common thing for military strategists. Now that the Wu army has suffered a new defeat, it is the time to recruit people. They suggested that he should be punished slightly.

At the first moment of the garrison, the Wuchang Palace was brightly lit. In the Taiji Hall, Generals Sun Jun and Quan Cong, wearing "smoky" makeup, knelt in the palace to plead guilty and told the tragic situation of the battle. Sun Jun did not forget to

The blame for the defeat was placed on Zhuge Ke as much as possible. During this period, Sun Quan did not say a word, but listened carefully to the argument between the two and the officials.

Finally, Sun Quan said slowly: "Everyone, please go back and rest first. As for the punishment of the three generals, I will make my own decision. I will issue an edict in a few days!"

The meeting at Cao Shuang's office to discuss how to capture Jingzhou was still going on. Cao Shuang thought for a moment and said, "Why don't I follow the example of Amen under Wu, who pretended to be ill to confuse the Wu army. After that, Wang Sikong temporarily took over my position as the head coach.

Every day I called for a fierce attack, so I secretly imitated him by crossing the river in white and marching into Jingzhou!"
