The news that Sun Ce attacked Wu Jun had already been reported to Yan Baihu by Tan Ma. After Yan Baihu heard the news, he was extremely frightened, like an ant on a hot pot, rushing around in a hurry. Although he also had 50,000 troops, Yan Baihu still knew what his army was like.
Yan Baihu has long heard of Sun Ce's bravery. Moreover, Sun Ce's subordinates are fierce generals, and no one in his army can match them.
"I heard that Sun Ce is leading his army to attack Wucheng," a sturdy man said hurriedly before entering the door. The person here is Yan Xing, Yan Baihu's younger brother. Although this man is short in stature, he is extremely brave and bold. Yan Baihu can occupy Wu County, and Yan Xing has half the credit.
Yan Baihu sighed deeply, "I heard that Sun Ce is extremely brave and victories in all battles. Our army is definitely not their opponent. How can this be good!" Yan Baihu seemed to be very worried, a drop of sweat. Drops shed one after another, wiping them continuously, as if Wucheng was about to fall.
Seeing Yan Baihu's panic, Yan Xing felt very ridiculous, and said to Yan Baihu: "Wucheng is strong and has sufficient food and grass. We only need to prepare more defensive equipment and guard Wucheng strictly. Sun Ce will definitely not be able to attack our army. Over time, Sun Cejun will inevitably be unstable, and our army can seize the opportunity to annihilate them in one fell swoop.
It seems that Yan Xing is very confident in this battle, and he is already confident. Yan Baihu breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.
"The report, it's not good, it's not good... Sun Cejun came to attack the city." The soldiers in Wu Jun had heard of Sun Ce's name, and they were shocked to see Sun Ce personally leading the army to attack the city.
"Whatever you panic, follow me to the city to defend!" Yan Baihu rushed to the city wall with strong fighting spirit. Looking down from the city wall, I saw that Sun Cejun was overwhelmed and neat, and he was well-trained.
Under the city, Sun Ce stood on the chariot and shouted loudly, "Listen in the city, Yan Baihu, you are just a grass bandit. How good are you, how dare you to occupy Wu Jun, hurry up and surrender, I can consider sparing you. ."
Sun Ce's tone was very arrogant, Yan Baihu was furious when he heard it, and ordered the soldiers to throw arrows down the city.
"Swish, swish, swish..." With the sound of howling arrows, one arrow shot at Sun Ce.
It was dangerous, and the driver of the chariot hurriedly drove out of the range of the bow and arrow.
Sun Ce was very angry and ordered the soldiers to attack the city with all their strength.
After Sun Cejun heard the order, he rushed towards the city wall like a galloping wild horse. In a blink of an eye, the ladders set on the walls of Wucheng.
Han Dang dashed up, holding a shield, and climbing the ladder desperately towards the city wall. It seems that he wants to be the first general to attack the city.
Here, Huang Gai didn't show weakness, even threw the shield, holding a big knife constantly waving, and the arrows shot from the top of the city fell one after another.
"Yan Baihu, you thief, I have to kill you today." Zhou Tai was angry with the roots of his teeth, and he was naked, even without armor, which was very exaggerated.
It seems that these three pioneers are striving for the first victory today, and everyone is desperate.
Zhou Yu next to Sun Ce, riding a brown horse, carefully observed the situation on the battlefield. The soldiers suffered heavy injuries and took less than half of the advantage. Zhou Yu was very worried and hurriedly persuaded Sun Ce to retreat.
"Our army has come from afar, and it is not a wise move to rush to attack the city without rest. Moreover, the enemy has been prepared for a long time. If this attack continues, our army will suffer heavy losses. Please retreat for the time being."
Although Sun Ce was very reluctant in his heart, the current situation is indeed not optimistic, so he had to follow Zhou Yu's suggestion and Mingjin to retreat.
The army was stationed twenty miles from the city.
The first battle was not going well, and Sun Ce was very depressed. Looking at the moon in the sky, Sun Ce sighed for a long time. Even Wucheng is so difficult to attack. Then when can the six counties of Jiangdong be unified, and how can the revenge of killing his father be avenged.
The more I thought about it, the more bored and irritable Sun Ce was.
"It's so late, the lord hasn't slept yet."
Zhou Yu walked towards Sun Ce with a calm expression, as if he was not worried at all.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are like brothers. They met at the beginning of Shouchun that year, and the two became brothers alive and dead. When he first came to Jiangdong, it was Zhou Yu who ran away his wealth to help Sun Ce.
"Oh, the war is stuck, and I can't sleep." After that, Sun Ce sighed for a long time. Zhou Yu had never seen Sun Ce worry so much.
"Yan Baihu has no ambitions. He just wants to guard his one-third of an acre. It is not a concern. It is just that his younger brother Yan Xing is quite strategic. However, Yan Xing is arrogant and defiant. Xing draws out of the city and takes the opportunity to get rid of it, and then Wu Jun will decide what matters."
It seemed that Zhou Yu had already considered it well, and his strategy was still very important for fighting with soldiers.
After Sun Ce heard this, he was overjoyed, and the worries in his heart had gone for half a minute. He went back to rest and prepare to fight again tomorrow.
Early the next morning, Sun Ce sent teenager Lu Meng to challenge him and told Lu Meng that he could only lose, not win.
Although Lu Meng was reluctant in his heart, he had no choice but to act according to the order. Lv Meng led three thousand soldiers and horses to the city of Wucheng, yelling.
Yan Xing originally didn't want to play, but when he saw an unknown teenager scolding himself in the city, he was furious. Seeing that there were not many troops under the city, he wanted to attack suddenly and eat the enemy troops under the city.
After making up his mind, Yan Xing led five thousand troops and horses out of the city to kill Lu Meng. Lv Meng pretended to resist for a while, then pretended to retreat, leaving behind hundreds of corpses and fleeing.
Seeing Yan Xing's victory on the wall, Yan Baihu jumped up happily. They all say how powerful Sun Ce is and how brave Sun Ce's soldiers are. Today, it looks like that. It seems that I was deceived by rumors before. The Yan brothers have since despised Sun Ce.
After Yan Xing came back from victory, Yan Baihu personally picked up Yan Xing from the wind and washed the dust, and put on a feast banquet in Wujun City to celebrate Yan Xing's victory.
Yan Baihu usually likes to be praised by others, so there are flattering people around him.
"The King De (Yan Baihu calls himself "The King of Soochow") is wise and martial, Sun Ce Xiaoer is definitely not the opponent of the King."
"Yeah, yeah. Sun Ce's army has been defeated for two consecutive battles. Now it must be shocked."
"General Yan Xing's martial arts and outstanding strategy will surely destroy Sun Ce's children."
"Today I saw that young general escape from wasteland, it was a real laugh..."
Yan Baihu and Yan Xing were dizzy by their praise, and the little caution in their hearts disappeared.
Especially Yan Xing, after a few drinks, he forgot who he was.
"The moon and the black wind are high tonight, which is just right for the robbery camp. The new defeat of the enemy army will inevitably make the army unstable. I will go and solve them tonight."
With that said, Yan Xing asked his entourage to put on his armor, and he was really going to the robbery camp.
"Well, my brother will succeed tonight and establish immortal merits. When you come back, I will let you be the prefect of Wu Jun."
Yan Baihu was also drunk and lost the stability of the past.
Yan Xing left only five thousand men and horses to guard the city, and then led all 45,000 men and horses to Sun Ce Camp, as if victory was beckoning to him...
