Chapter 917 Unification of the world
Remember in one second, read wonderful novels for free without pop-ups!
Finally, I realized that I had too many gaps with those who were ambushing people and could not resist them. Baidu, more good novels can be read for free.
So he issued an order to retreat immediately, without any hesitation, and even left without even having time for Sun Ce's body.
It is precisely because of this that it can be seen from this aspect that the ambush they encountered this time was really miserable. They even had no time to clean up their lord's body and fled.
If it were to be like this in daily life, the civil and military officials in Jiangdong would definitely not want to do so, and would definitely not give up.
But now things are too far apart, everyone is stunned, and only a few generals are still relatively sober. Therefore, even though they are very unwilling to give up, they have to abandon Sun Ce and run away first.
This does not mean that they are all very timid, or that they are all very ungrateful.
If they were asked to die on the battlefield, then these old generals would never say anything, and would even laugh and serve generously.
But the situation is different now, because they not only need to take care of themselves, but also the ship full of soldiers and the only war horses in Jiangdong.
It is precisely because of this that although they felt extremely heartbroken, they had to bear the heartache and ordered their retreat and leave this place directly. As long as they arrived in Jiangdong, they could find ways to continue to maintain their victory.
Although today's incident was their defeat, and they were very thorough, under a certain situation, as long as they still have power and as long as they are still alive, it is impossible for anyone to underestimate it. Baidu, more good novels can be read for free.
Under such circumstances, what they could think of was to preserve Jiangdong and preserve some of the seeds of Jiangdong.
Everyone knew what had been born, so they had no objection. Even the soldiers were eager to leave the place quickly, and they were already scared.
Zhou Yu took everyone down the river to Jiangdong, preparing to avoid this ambush, but Zhuge Liang, who was ambushing on the shore, waved his hand so that his subordinates would not have to chase after him.
They had already achieved great victory, but in the face of Zhou Yu's escape, Zhuge Liang did not take the lead in chasing, but instead waved his hand and asked his subordinates to leave the place quickly.
A lieutenant stood beside Zhuge Liang, looking at Zhuge Liang with the look of looking at the gods.
He had underestimated this scholar, but now in his eyes, this scholar was like a god, who could calculate and predict things like a god. Not only did he calculate, but the time when Sun Ce came, he also calculated the method of Sun Ce's choice and the place where he logged in.
Just like a god in the sky, he was the first to know everything about Sun Ce. It is precisely because of this that this adjutant admired Zhuge Liang so much.
Therefore, when Zhuge Liang waved his hand, he immediately issued an order to evacuate everyone.
In fact, from the beginning, Zhuge Liang did not intend to attack Jiangdong. They were not fools, so they naturally knew that Jiangdong was the base of Sun Ce. Even if they attacked for a while, they would not be able to gather all people's hearts on their own side.
On the contrary, as long as Sun Ce was alive outside, they could return to Jiangdong at any time. Under such huge risks, Zhuge Liang was not a fool, so he could not directly attack Jiangdong.
However, not attacking Jiangdong does not mean that he cannot attack. Therefore, he led his troops to kill all Sun Ce's left-behind personnel, and then created an illusion of sneak attacking Jiangdong.
For this reason, he deliberately let several soldiers go and informed him. They originally wanted to lead Sun Ce to rescue Jiangdong.
In Zhuge Liang's eyes, although Jingzhou is very important now, if it can destroy the logistics supply in Jiangdong, then Jingzhou will be like an isolated island. Without any supply, it will sooner or later be their pocket.
It is precisely because of this that he chose to attack Sun Ce first, rather than sneak attacking Jingzhou with Lu Bu. In fact, if he and Lu Bu went to sneak attack Jingzhou with Lu Bu, he might succeed.
But Zhuge Liang knew very well what kind of person Cao Cao was. He would definitely not do it, and he would not be able to do it. If they could really conquer Jingzhou, then Cao Cao would definitely interfere with it and help Liu Bei defend Jingzhou.
It is precisely because of this that Zhuge Liang did not attack Jingzhou with Lu Bu, but instead brought an army to ambush Sun Ce.
At the same time, in order to have no one else to disturb the situation, Zhuge Liang specially asked Lv Bu to lead a car in Jingzhou. Liu Bei and Cao Cao's two families had the power.
Before coming, Zhuge Liang had already explained to Lu Bu very clearly that it would be very good to have a sneak attack successful in Jingzhou, but it would not matter if the sneak attack failed. As long as Lu Bu was holding it, Liu Bei and Cao Cao were all restrained.
So when Lu Bu rushed to the Jingzhou battlefield with a quick horse and then found that he could not attack Jingzhou, he was very honest and attracted the attention of Cao Cao and Liu Bei and others on the surface as Zhuge Liang's instructions.
In fact, Zhuge Liang had no worries about Lu Bu's strength, and even if all their plans were exposed to Liu Bei and Cao Cao, there was nothing wrong, because the two of them could not beat Lu Bu now.
Now Lu Bu is a tiger. Although Liu Bei and Cao Cao are two hungry wolves, they have been exhausted because they have fought for a long time and are no match for Lu Bu's tiger.
If the two sides were just confrontation, it might be a peaceful result, and no one dared to provoke anyone, but if the two hungry wolves couldn't help but take action, the tiger would definitely not be jealous and would directly press the other party to the ground and slap them to death.
So it is natural for everyone to be at peace. If they cannot be at peace, then someone will definitely be eliminated, and the person who is eliminated is likely to be a hungry wolf in a mess.
Because of this, Zhuge Liang's ambush has achieved his goal this time. In fact, he was ambushing this time just to harass the other party, but now Sun Ce is dead, and for them, the task has been completed.
Next they can take advantage of the situation to use troops, and then they can officially declare war like Cao Cao and Liu Bei, because now the two families basically have no combat ability, and when facing Lu Bu's millions of troops, they basically have no resistance.
