Chapter 674 Governor Zhou Is Here!

"Thank you Cao Lifeng."

After breaking a finger, Zhou Xing turned pale and whispered.

Cao Ren's face calmed down and he said warmly: "Zhou Xing, you are also a veteran, don't blame me. Military discipline is strict and must not be violated. Even if I violate military regulations, I will be severely punished."

"I will ask my servant to send two pieces of silk cloth to your mother-in-law later." Cao Ren said again.

Zhou Xing said gratefully: "I understand, thank you very much Cao Lifeng."

Seeing that Cao Ren was clearly rewarded and punished, dozens of Cao Jun's cavalrymen around him were in awe of Cao Ren. When Cao Ren was young, he was a knight-errant and lived a wild life. However, after serving Cao Cao, he changed his previous attitude. He always carried military regulations with him and acted strictly in accordance with them, so everyone respected him.

"Yes, Old Zhou, Li Feng has always been like this." Niu Jin beside Cao Ren said loudly: "I forgot to patrol the camp a few days ago, and I asked Cao Lifeng to beat me with twenty army sticks."

"Talk too much!" Cao Ren's face darkened, and he was so frightened that he dared not speak.

"Be careful in the future." Cao Ren warned: "This move affects whether our army can capture Lujiang County and then sweep across Jiangdong. Don't be careless."

Hearing that their mission was so important, dozens of Cao Jun's infantrymen looked stern and clasped their fists together.

"promise!"

Outside Shu County City, the ground suddenly shook, as if something major was about to happen.

And in the wilderness, a black line suddenly appeared, and became thicker and thicker. Finally, as the distance got closer and closer, it changed from a huge black line to small black dots. These small black dots turned out to be warriors. , there are at least tens of thousands of people at a glance.

This large army formed a formation, divided into four phalanxes, and advanced rapidly, each with about 5,000 people, close to 20,000 troops. All the soldiers in the army were wearing red armor, as if they were burning flames. Even the sky seemed to be dyed red, and the momentum was exciting.

The banners of the 20,000-strong army were fluttering, and the flags of various generals were colorful and eye-catching. However, in the central army, there were two large banners erected on a wooden chariot at the same time. They made a hunting sound as the strong wind blew.

One of the poles was embroidered with the image of a red water unicorn representing the Jiangdong Army. It showed its teeth and claws when blown by the wind, as if it was about to break away from the flag and fly out.

Next to the water unicorn battle flag is a large Chinese army banner with a red background and a large Chinese character embroidered with fine workmanship.

week!

Zhou Yu stood on the chariot, leaning on the railing and looking at Shu County in the distance, with great pride in his heart. He would lead the Jiangdong army to recapture the Lujiang River, shocking both the inside and outside. Even if Bo Fu is gone, he, Zhou Gongjin, will do his best to protect Jiangdong's foundation.

Nearly 20,000 troops marched in in a mighty manner, in strict formation, and the ground shook. Zhou Yu deliberately looked back at the square formation of five thousand Chaisang recruits. Compared with the Jiangdong elite soldiers who had experienced battles for a long time, the five thousand Jiangdong new troops were naturally inferior. After a long period of rapid march, the formation was slightly scattered. Showing fatigue, but the overall formation is relatively strict.

Zhou Yu nodded slightly, obviously approving of the performance of this new recruit.

Nearly 20,000 Jiangdong troops came in force with great momentum. Li Shu's rebels at the head of Shuxian City saw it from a distance. They all opened their mouths and informed each other. For a moment, an atmosphere of fear of war enveloped Shuxian City.

When the Jiangdong Army in the camp outside the city saw the arrival of large reinforcements, they were all excited and rushed out of the camp, cheering loudly.

"Our army will win!"

"The Governor of Zhou is wise and mighty!"

"A warm welcome to the Governor!"

More than 6,000 Jiangdong troops came out of the camp in formation, divided into two lines, with a gap in the middle. Nearly 20,000 Jiangdong troops passed through the gap in large formations. The comrades on both sides raised their arms and cheered. The Jiangdong Army marching in formation naturally did not dare to disrupt the formation. Instead, they held their chests and heads higher and walked over openly.

Every time Jiangdong Army passed by, a burst of cheers broke out from the Jiangdong Army on both sides. When Zhou Yu passed by in a chariot, the Jiangdong Army on both sides all turned red, raised their arms and shouted, and the cheers were like thunder from the sky. Rolling, tidal waves are coming.

"The Governor is here!"

"Welcome the Governor!"

"The Commander-in-Chief is wise and mighty, and our army is invincible!"

Zhou Yu looked at the high-spirited Jiangdong Army on both sides with a smile. He also raised his arms and shouted loudly: "The soldiers are invincible, and the Jiangdong Army is victorious!"

"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!"

The cheers continued, and many Jiangdong soldiers shouted until their voices were hoarse, but they still refused to relax and waved their arms desperately, hoping that the governor would look at them.

"My dear, the Governor is more impressive than the Emperor on patrol." Chen Wu touched his head and smacked his tongue.

"Zi Lie, what are you talking about?" Huang Gai scolded, and then said: "The Commander-in-Chief has won the hearts of the troops. If he accepts orders in times of danger, all officers and men of the three armies will naturally obey his orders."

Zhou Yu's reputation spread far and wide in Jiangdong. Because of his handsome appearance, he was called "Zhou Lang". Moreover, Zhou Yu was strict in running the army and had clear rewards and punishments, so the Jiangdong Army officers and soldiers were willing to serve.

Zhou Yu entered the military camp with a smile on his face, then stepped off the chariot, and walked towards the central military tent under the protection of Chen Wu, Pan Zhang, Huang Gai and other generals.

Cheng Pu, Tai Shi Ci, Xu Sheng and other generals were lined up on the left and right. When they saw Zhou Yu walking in, they immediately stood up and raised their hands, saying in unison.

"See the Grand Governor!"

"Generals, please take a seat."

Zhou Yu waved his hand and sat unceremoniously on the vacant main seat, while Huang Gai, Han Dang, Chen Wu, Pan Zhang and other generals found their own seats and sat on the left and right seats.

"General Cheng, is there any movement in the city recently?"

Zhou Yu had just taken his seat and immediately asked Cheng Pu, who was on the left.

Cheng Pu clasped his fists and said: "Back to the governor, Li Shu's dog thief has no courage. Ziyi has led Qingqi to besiege the city and scold him these days, but the rebels dare not leave the city. After dozens of people were killed by Ziyi's divine arrows, they dare not show their heads. If not The governor ordered not to attack the city, for fear that Shu County would be captured."

Zhou Yu smiled slightly: "The morale is strong and the morale of the army is available. This is a good thing. However, the old general only has 6,000 men under his command. If we attack the city by force, we will inevitably suffer heavy casualties."

"This time, the governor came with an army of 20,000 people. The purpose is to surround the city on all sides and level Shu County in one go!" Zhou Yu said decisively.

After hearing Zhou Yu's words, all the generals on the left and right showed excitement and laughed.

The majestic-looking Taishi Ci stood up, clasped his fists with a "pop" sound, and said loudly: "Captain! Ci is willing to attack the city first. If Shu County cannot be captured within three days, I will come to see you!"

When Chen Wu heard this, he became anxious and stood up to ask for a fight: "Captain Zhou, Ziyi is brave and brave, and I am not bad at all. He will go to Shu County in a couple of days. If we fail, please behead someone."
