Sun Yi glanced at Zhou Yu, then at Taishi Ci, and said: "General Taishi, give the order to attack!"
Zhou Yu stared at Dong Xi and Sun Yi, and finally his eyes fell on Taishi Ci. He admonished: "General Taishi, we are leading the army to pursue Wang Can. It is a matter of great importance and we must be cautious. Sun Yi and Dong Xi have just surrendered.
It is better to defend the city. Even if we fail to pursue successfully, there will be someone guarding Jiujiang so that we will not lose an inch of ground."
Taishi Ci raised his eyebrows. This statement sounded wrong.
Looking at Zhou Yu, he saw Zhou Yu nodded slightly.
Zhou Yu looked at Taishi Ci, but thought in his heart: "If you take Dong Xi with you in pursuit, maybe Dong Xi will be a disaster. If Dong Xi and Sun Yi stay in Jiujiang, even if there is a problem in Jiujiang, it will not be a big problem."
.
In Zhou Yu's mind, Wang Can was seriously injured and on the verge of death, so the pursuit would definitely succeed.
Even if Dong Xi had any impact on Jiujiang, there would be no problem.
Seeing Zhou Yu's insistence, Taishi Ci said: "Sun Yi, Dong Xi, you two stay in Jiujiang. Governor Zhou and I will lead the army to pursue Wang Can."
Sun Yi suddenly became anxious and said loudly: "General Taishi, I also want to pursue Wang Can."
Taishi Ci said: "Master Yi, Jiujiang is our foundation and there is no room for failure. You and Dong Xi will stay and guard our foundation. This is the most important thing and there is no room for failure."
Seeing Tai Shici's insistence, Sun Yi scratched his head, and finally nodded helplessly in agreement.
Taishi Ci looked at Dong Xi and asked, "Dong Xi, I want you to stay in Jiujiang. What do you think?"
Dong Xi simply cupped his fists and said: "I will obey your orders!"
Taishi Ci said: "In that case, you and Mr. Yi go and make preparations to get familiar with the situation in the city. Gong Jin and I still have some matters to discuss and determine the strategy for dealing with Wang Can."
"promise!"
The two of them clenched their fists in response, turned around and left the hall.
After Dong Xi left, he looked gloomy and said in a deep voice: "Third Young Master, it was the last general who dragged you down. If the last general did not escape, you would definitely follow General Taishi to pursue Wang Can and achieve great military exploits. Alas, it is a pity that the last general has not escaped.
You will have been captured and looked down upon by Governor Zhou, otherwise the situation in front of you would not have happened."
After hearing this, Sun Yi felt infinite anger rising in his heart.
Dong Xi was a prisoner, so why not Sun Yi?
At this moment, Sun Yi's resentment towards Zhou Yu was rising steadily.
Dong Xi's few words made Sun Yi angry.
Sun Yi sighed and said, "Dong Xi, don't worry. I promised to ask for merit for you in front of my father, and it will definitely come true. I will never break my promise. If Zhou Yu and Taishi Ci want to pursue Wang Can, let them go. We are in the city
Watch the show."
The two of them whispered quietly and slowly left the prefect's mansion.
In the hall, Tai Shici said: "Gong Jin, you are worried about Dong Xi!"
Zhou Yu said: "It is a major matter to pursue Wang Can, so we must be cautious. Wang Can was shot by your bow and arrow and was seriously injured and on the verge of death. If we lead the army to pursue the Shu army, we will definitely win. If we take Dong Xi with us, we will not be able to win."
There is no guarantee of victory. More importantly, even if there is any problem with Dong Xi, as long as we defeat Wang Can and Dong Xi stays behind, we will not dare to act rashly."
Taishi Ci said: "What you said makes sense."
…
The Shu army retreated, and Wang Can rode in a carriage without revealing the specific situation.
The carriage was also surrounded by soldiers, all used to protect Wang Can's safety and ensure that the news that Wang Can was not injured would not leak out.
Everything is for revenge.
Unfortunately, they still failed to break through the defense line organized by Lu Meng and Wei Yan, and were still chasing the lagging Shu army.
Two and a half hours passed quietly, and we were already dozens of miles away from Jiujiang City.
Taishi Ci and Zhou Yu fought with great excitement.
However, just when the Wu army was in high spirits, Lu Meng and Wei Yan suddenly stopped and stopped the retreating Shu army. Wei Yan turned his horse's head, raised his sword towards Taishi Ci and Zhou Yu, and shouted: "Zhou Yu, Taishi Ci
, you guys really had a great time killing me all the way, now it’s our turn, I want to take revenge.”
Lu Meng shouted: "Tai Shi Ci, you secretly fired an arrow, thinking that you hit the lord, but you didn't know that it only hit the armor under the lord's armpit. The lord pretended to be shot, just to lure you to attack. You and Zhou Yu led the army to kill him.
You've fallen into a trap. The tide has turned, it's your turn to flee, and we're in pursuit. This battle will make it impossible for you and Zhou Yu to come back."
After hearing this, Zhou Yu and Taishi Ci's expressions changed drastically.
