"General, it looks like we are going to set up camp again." Looking at the smiling face of his master, Jia Xu stroked his beard, and then looked at the camp that had been basically burned to ashes. Said to Bai Ren with emotion.

"Xu Sheng, go and tell your soldiers to find an open space to set up camp for the time being." Bai Ren nodded silently after listening to Jia Xu's words, looked at the burnt camp, and then turned to Xu Sheng who was beside him. commanded.

On the other side, Sun Quan quickly fled back to his camp under the escort of Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin.

At this time, Lu Su was at the gate of the camp, waiting for Sun Quan's return with a serious expression on his face. Seeing the way Sun Quan and the other three returned in a state of distress, Lu Su seemed to know what happened.

"I welcome the return of Marquis Wu!" Lu Su watched the three of Sun Quan return to the barracks on their horses. There were no other soldiers behind them. Said to Sun Quan indifferently.

Sun Quan looked at Lu Su with a calm face and looked at himself.Looking at his embarrassed appearance again, he sighed helplessly, then got off his horse, and said to Lu Su with some emotion: "I didn't listen to Mr.'s words at the beginning, so I lost today. Now it is the fault of this Marquis." Already!"

Lu Su looked at Sun Quan's serious face and sighed helplessly, not knowing how to persuade Sun Quan.

Looking at his empty camp, Sun Quan wanted to cry without tears. None of the [-] soldiers and horses he brought back came back with him, and now he lost [-] soldiers and horses in vain. This made Sun Quan very distressed!

Sun Quan looked at Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, who were already very tired under his command, and suddenly thought of Chen Wu who died fighting for him, and tears rolled down the corner of his eyes.

"I'm afraid our army has suffered heavy losses now. It's better to return to Jiangdong temporarily and fight again in the next year." Lu Su looked at Sun Quan with a serious expression at the side, and hesitated for a while with a dejected look. Then he spoke calmly. Following Sun Quan said.

Sun Quan looked at Lu Su silently, and then said to Lu Su with some hesitation: "If our army returns to Jiangdong, I don't know when we will be able to move to Huainan?"

"But our army can't fight for a long time, and now we have captured Lujiang City. We can temporarily turn Lujiang City into our army's stronghold in Huainan, and Wuhou will take his soldiers and horses back to Jiangdong temporarily. Wait for some time to rest, and then Let's fight against the Bai Zifu in the north." Lu Su looked at Sun Quan's reluctance, then looked at Sun Quan with a serious face, and said to Sun Quan in a hoarse tone.

After listening to Lu Su's words, Sun Quan stayed where he was silently, with a heavy expression on his face. At this time, he was frowning and thinking, weighing the pros and cons, and considering whether he should retreat back to Jiangdong.

"Marquis Wu, there will be a word at the end that I don't know whether to say or not." Zhou Tai looked at Sun Quan with some hesitation, stroked his beard, and said to Sun Quan calmly,

Sun Quan looked at Zhou Tai who was usually silent and suddenly spoke. He looked at Zhou Tai with strange eyes, and then said calmly to Zhou Tai: "Youping, just say what you have to say."

"Although our army has initially gained the upper hand, at first the Baizifu attacked our vanguard and beheaded General Dong Xi. Later, with the defeat of the fighting generals, important generals of our army, such as Gan Ning and Both Ling Tong and Ling Tong were seriously injured in this battle, and they were unable to continue fighting. The morale of our army has also declined with the defeat of the fighting generals. Tonight, Marquis Wu led his troops to attack the enemy camp, but he did not expect to hit the enemy camp. Bai Zifu's treacherous scheme not only defeated General Chen Wu, but also basically lost all of his men and horses. Now, although our army still has an army of nearly ten thousand people, but with the current morale, I am afraid it will be difficult to match Bai Zifu's. The army is here!" Zhou Tai looked at Sun Quan with a serious expression at this time, with a trace of helplessness in his eyes, and said to Sun Quan with some emotion in his tone.

After hearing Zhou Tai's words, Sun Quan's face immediately became more depressed. Finally, he shook his head helplessly and said with some emotion: "It seems that our army is powerless to fight any more, so we can only retreat to Jiangdong obediently. Wait until the next day to return." Go north for revenge!"

After hearing what Sun Quan said, Lu Su and all the civil and military officers were a little bit emotional. They thought that there was a great chance of winning to pacify Huainan, but the final outcome was like this, which is really unacceptable.

"Wu Hou, I have an idea now, I don't know if I should say it or not." Seeing Sun Quan's dejected expression, Lu Su suddenly thought of something, so he said to Sun Quan with a heavy tone.

Sun Quan turned his head, looked at Lu Su on the side, looked at Lu Su with some doubts and asked, "Zi Jing, you and my monarch and ministers know each other, so just speak up if you have anything to say!"

Chapter 736 It's all right

"I think Marquis Wu should invite Zhou Yu and Zhou Gongjin to return to Soochow. After all, I think the only one in Soochow who can compete with Bai Zifu is Zhou Gongjin." Lu Su looked at Sun Quan's eyes, helplessly. Sighing, he spoke calmly to Sun Quan in front of him.

After hearing what Lu Su said, Sun Quan's expression sank immediately, and finally he sighed helplessly, seeing the eyes of the generals around him, he said to Lu Su with a serious expression, "Gong Jin has already set his sights on Shan Shui, I'm afraid it will be difficult to invite him to come out?"

"Wu Hou, Cao Cao specially invited Bai Zifu back from a remote place in northern Saibei to deal with us in Jiangdong. Why can't Wu Hou put down his body and go to Shu County and ask Zhou Gongjin to come back to deal with Bai Zifu?" Lu Su looked at Sun Quan as before. He looked hesitant, and his complexion became a little heavy, then he looked into Sun Quan's green eyes, and said to Sun Quan in a hoarse tone.

Sun Quan listened to Lu Su's words, looked at Lu Su's eyes staring at him straightly, and finally thought for a while, and said with some emotion: "I see, if I return to Jiangdong, if I have time, I will definitely go to Shu County to invite Zhou Gongjin out of the mountain!"

"Wu Hou Yingming!" Lu Su listened to Sun Quan's words and saw that Sun Quan finally agreed to himself verbally, so he said to Sun Quan in a respectful tone. Although Lu Su knew that Sun Quan was forced to do so by himself, but At any rate, Sun Quan agreed in front of so many people, and he couldn't go back on his word in the end.

"Pack up your things and go back to Lujiang! Wait for a few days to rest, and then return to Jiangdong with the army." Sun Quan looked at Lu Su at the side, and then looked at the eyes of his generals, and said with some emotion, and then silently He walked to his military tent and prepared to pack his things.

"Zijing, is it really okay for you to persecute Marquis Wu like this?" At this time, Zhou Tai slowly came to Lu Su's side, saw that Sun Quan had entered the military tent, looked at Lu Su beside him with a calm expression and asked road.

After hearing Zhou Tai's words, Lu Su looked at Zhou Tai's cold face, and said to Zhou Tai in a heavy tone: "If I don't force Marquis Wu, who can give Marquis Wu a better way?" ?”

After hearing Lu Su's words, Zhou Tai smiled helplessly, then silently looked at the wound on his arm, and said to Lu Su calmly, "I'll deal with the wound first, there are two more wounds in this battle." The wound is really uncomfortable!"

Lu Su looked at the back of Zhou Tai leaving slowly, touched his chin silently, and looked at the sky with some emotion. Was his choice right or wrong?

Bai Ren was sleeping in the barracks right now, he was exhausted from the battle last night.He is still lying on the bed and sleeping soundly.

"General, it's not good, it's not good!" At this moment, Xu Sheng broke in from the army tent with a serious expression on his face, looked at Bai Ren who was sleeping soundly, and shook Bai Ren quickly, his tone a little bit Said heavily.

"What's going on?" Bai Ren woke up from his sleep, looked at Xu Sheng who kept shaking his arms, and asked with a dazed expression.

Xu Sheng looked at Bai Ren in front of him, and said to Bai Ren with some emotion: "General, Sun Quan's army retreated from his camp overnight and headed towards Lujiang City."

"What, I retreated to Lujiang City. It looks like I'm fully prepared to retreat back to my hometown in Jiangdong." After listening to Xu Sheng's words in front of him, Bai Ren regained consciousness a little bit, his mind turned quickly, and suddenly he seemed to understand. Seeing what Sun Quan meant, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said to Xu Sheng calmly.

"Sun Quan is going to retreat?" Xu Sheng looked at Bai Ren who was lying on the bed with his eyes open, with a surprised expression on his face, and said in a surprised tone.

"He lost so many troops last night, he doesn't have the energy to continue fighting with me, why not retreat?" Bai Ren slowly got up, got up from his bed, took He came and put on a simple dress, looked at Xu Sheng at the side with a calm expression and said.

"General, should we do something?" Xu Sheng looked curiously at Bai Ren who had changed into a simple scholar's uniform after hearing Bai Ren's words, and asked in a tentative tone.

"All we have to do now is to pack up and return to Shouchun. As for other things, we have to wait until Sun Quan leaves Huainan." Bai Ren looked at Xu Sheng's curious look, touched his chin, and the corner of his mouth Said with a faint smile.

Seeing Bai Ren's appearance, Xu Sheng suddenly became a little puzzled, but looking at the meaningful smile on the other side, Xu Sheng still felt that he should not ask. After all, he asked the question himself, and Bai Ren might not necessarily answer it. .

So under Bai Ren's order, the soldiers in the barracks began to pack their things, and then slowly headed towards Shouchun City.

The two parties seemed to pack up their things in a regular manner and return to their respective cities. These days, both parties have maintained a rare quietness, and neither has disturbed this relative balance.

"Marquis Wu, General Ding Feng, came to support with [-] soldiers and horses under him." At this time, in Lujiang City, Sun Quan was sitting in his mansion with a serious face, dealing with official duties, when suddenly he came running out. He picked up a soldier and said to Sun Quan cautiously.

"I'm afraid this is a waste of time for them." Sun Quan said with some emotion when he heard what the soldier said. However, Ding Feng came just in time. There are indeed no soldiers in Lujiang City to guard him, and he will return when the time comes. Jiangdong will definitely take away some soldiers, so that the defense of Lujiang City will be weakened.

But now that General Ding Feng is waiting for the reinforcements to come, he can just add soldiers to Lujiang City, and then use it to guard against Bai Ren in Shouchun City to the east.

"Go and bring General Ding here." Sun Quan looked at the soldier who was still waiting, stroked his beard a little, and then said to the soldier in a flat tone.

Not long after, the soldier brought Ding Feng to Sun Quan's room.

Ding Feng was wearing a battle armor at this time, looking at Sun Quan who was handling official duties on the main seat, he said to Sun Quan in a respectful tone: "The future is late, and I hope Marquis Wu will forgive me!"

Ding Bong knew what was going on long before he arrived.After entering the city, he also got the news that Sun Quan was about to retreat.Looking at Sun Quan in front of him at this time, Ding Feng always dealt with Sun Quan cautiously, for fear that Sun Quan would get angry at that time.

"What's your fault? It took so much time for you to come here. If you want to blame, you can only blame me. These days, you have fallen into the trap of Bai Zifu because you are proud and complacent!" Sun Quan looked at the cautious Ding Feng in front of him, Bi There was a trace of sadness in the green eyes, and he said with some emotion in his tone.

After listening to Sun Quan's words, Ding Feng could only stand aside silently, not knowing how to answer Sun Quan.

"I heard that Bai Zifu is your master?" Sun Quan looked at Ding Feng who had been silent all this time, stroked his beard, and asked Ding Feng curiously.

"Exactly, I have studied in my master's hands for almost eight years!" Ding Feng looked at Sun Quan's gaze, and replied to Sun Quan in a somewhat respectful tone.

"Zhou Gongjin and your master, who do you think is more capable?" Sun Quan looked at Ding Feng with a calm expression at the side, hesitated for a moment, and asked Ding Feng in a hoarse tone.

When Ding Feng heard Sun Quan's question suddenly, he stood there with a bit of surprise on his face, not knowing how to answer Sun Quan's question.

"Just tell me the truth, tell me what's on your mind, and I won't blame you." Sun Quan looked at Ding Feng who was a little difficult to answer, and said to Ding Feng in a calm tone.

Ding Feng looked at Sun Quan's emerald green eyes, stared straight at himself, hesitated for a moment, and finally said to Sun Quan with a heavy tone: "I think my master and Zhou Dudu are probably on par, but I think my master should win in a real fight."

"Why?" Sun Quan became a little surprised when he heard Ding Feng's answer, and asked Ding Feng with a heavy tone.

"Because my master always uses troops by surprise, you often can't guess what he will do next, and often you think he can't win the war, but he can turn defeat into victory. That's why I think so." Ding Feng Seeing Sun Quan staring at him at this time, he replied to Sun Quan with a heavy tone.
