Xuzhou, Pengcheng.
After Xu Shu led his army to capture Xuzhou, he stationed himself in Pengcheng, the seat of Pengcheng State.
Since Wang Can led the army to the north and transferred all the civil servants and generals such as Gan Ning, Taishi Ci, Zhang Liao, Huang Xu, etc., there were not many people left for Xu Shu.
The only one who was good at fighting was Zhou Tai, and most of the other generals were people who had served under Sun Quan before.
Even though they were brave, they were unable to bear heavy responsibilities.
On the tower, Xu Shu, Zhou Tai and Zhu Huan were sitting in the room.
Zhou Tai had an angry look on his face and said angrily: "Master Xu, Xia Houyuan has led his army to Xuzhou, and has attacked Pengcheng again and again.
If we defend to the death, it is not an option if we continue like this."
Xia Houyuan left Yecheng and returned to Qingzhou.
After that, he led his army south to attack Xuzhou.
Because the main force of the Shu Kingdom was in the north and the troops remaining in Xuzhou were slightly weaker, and Xu Shu had only two capable generals, Zhou Tai and Zhu Huan, under his command, he did not go to war and instead defended Pengcheng.
As long as Xu Shu defends Pengcheng, Xia Houyuan will have to stay here.
Zhu Huan looked serious and said in a deep voice: "Master Xu, there is a war in Xuzhou.
I am afraid that Cao Ren of Yuzhou has also moved, so the situation in Yuzhou is not stable.
We can hold it, but the situation in Yuzhou is worrying."
Xu Shu did not look panicked and said with a smile: "Don't worry, General Zhu.
I have ordered the governor of Lujiang, Lu Xun, to go north and temporarily take charge of the overall situation in Yuzhou.
Although Lu Xun is young, he is full of strategies and can stabilize the situation."
Zhou Tai still didn't believe it and asked, "Can you stop Cao Ren?"
Xu Shu said: "Lu Xun is the governor of Lujiang appointed by His Majesty, and Lu Kang is behind him.
It is absolutely possible.
Besides, the lack of news from Yuzhou for so long shows that Yuzhou has not been captured by Cao Ren.
What I am worried about is not Yuzhou, but This is a war situation in the north.
I hope your Majesty will put an end to the war outside the Great Wall as soon as possible."
Zhou Tai sighed and said, "We still have to defend.
This battle is really frustrating."
Hearing this, Xu Shu had a look of helplessness on his face.
He also wanted to send his troops to fight, but without results in the north, he could not send out all his troops.
"Report" Outside the house, a soldier suddenly ran in.
The soldier held a note in his hand and quickly ran to Xu Shu and handed the note to Xu Shu.
Xu Shu waved the soldiers away, then quickly read the contents of the note, with a bright smile on his face, and said: "Good news, your Majesty has defeated Xianbei and achieved a great victory.
Zhao Yun also led his army to defeat Wuhuan and achieved victory. .
Now your Majesty and Zhao Yun have led their troops to sweep Youzhou and begin to attack Jizhou."
Zhou Tai raised his eyebrows and asked, "What about Lao Gan?"
Xu Shu shook his head and said: "There is no news yet, I guess he is still fighting with the Huns."
Zhu Huan's eyes flashed and he said: "Master Xu, your majesty has achieved a great victory, and the war in the north has come to an end.
We don't need to consider sending troops north to support your majesty.
We can mobilize the army to fight Xiahou Yuan for a tough battle."
Xu Shu nodded and said: "General Zhu's words are exactly what I want.
I have been worried about the unfavorable situation in the northern war, so I left some soldiers not to go out to fight, ensuring that they can support your majesty at any time.
Now that we have no worries, let's have a good fight with Xia Houyuan.
Let's see At first glance, Xiahou Yuan’s Qingzhou soldiers are more powerful, or our Xuzhou soldiers are more powerful.”
"Dong dong" Suddenly, the sound of powerful war drums came from outside the city.
Zhou Tai suddenly stood up, chuckled, and said, "Xia Houyuan has brought an army to attack the city again.
Mr.

Xu, please order the mobilization of the army stationed in the city.
This time, I, Zhou Tai, will lead the army to attack.
I must kill him."
Take off Xia Houyuan’s head and use his head to pay homage to the dead hero’s soul.”
Xu Shu ordered: "Zhu Huan, you follow me to seize the formation on the city tower.
Zhou Tai will lead the soldiers in the city to meet the enemy."
The three of them left the house and came to the tower.
Zhou Tai turned around and got off the tower and ran towards the city.
Xu Shu and Zhu Huan stood above.
They looked around and saw Xia Houyuan leading the army to slowly kill.
The drums were beating like thunder, and the shouts of killing were everywhere, showing an indomitable momentum.
Xu Shu was extremely excited, now was the time to counterattack.
Zhu Huan stared at Xia Houyuan's position and was quite excited.
I have been suppressed for a long time, and now I can finally fight a hard battle without having to endure it like before.
"crunch" Under the city tower, the city gate is wide open.
Zhou Tai led a vanguard army to rush out and rushed out quickly.
Zhou Tai yelled excitedly and kept waving the big knife in his hand.
The soldiers behind him were also very excited.
The Wei army continuously attacked the city, but these soldiers could only stay in the city to practice and could not go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and perform meritorious service.
Many soldiers held their breath.
Now being able to follow Zhou Tai to fight out is like a wild horse running wild.
Xia Houyuan led his army towards the city tower and was surprised when he saw the city gate open.
Unexpectedly, Xu Shu, who had been defending, took the initiative to fight.
Xia Houyuan immediately ordered the soldiers at the front holding the ladder to retreat, and asked the soldiers behind to rush forward.
At this time, a burly man stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Grand Governor, I will go and kill Zhou Tai."
This man was in his early thirties, with twinkling eyes and a strong fighting spirit in his eyes.
This man's name was Zang Ba, who was originally a tyrant in Qingzhou.
He was later recruited by Cao Cao and became a general under Cao Cao.
Historically, in order to save his father, Zang Ba led his men to hijack a prison car and fled to the East China Sea with his father.
During the Yellow Turban Uprising, Zang Ba surrendered to Tao Qian, but he, Sun Guan, Wu Dun and others gathered in groups and refused to obey the rules, settled in Kaiyang, and became the overlord of the area.
When Lu Bu entered Xuzhou, Zang Ba surrendered to Lu Bu and became one of Lu Bu's eight strong generals.
Later, Lu Bu was destroyed by Cao Cao's army, and Zang Ba surrendered to Cao Cao again.
Because of Wang Can, Lu Bu died early, and Zang Ba became Cao Cao's general early.
Xia Houyuan looked at Zang Ba who was eager to try, and ordered: "Xuan Gao, Zhou Taiwu is brave and fierce, you have to deal with it carefully."
Zang Ba smiled and said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, the general will definitely take Zhou Tai and present it to the Commander-in-Chief."
After the words fell, Zang Ba led his army and rushed forward to meet Zhou Tai's army.
Both of them are fierce-tempered, strong-willed and domineering, and their martial arts are also on the line of fierceness.
The two armies fought, and Zang Ba and Zhou Tai also fought with each other.
Zang Ba brandished his big gun and roared with all his strength: "Zhou Tai, son, Zang Ba of Mount Tai is here, and I will take your dog's head today."
When Zhou Tai heard this, he became furious and slashed at Zang Ba with his sword.
A silver-white bolt passed by and collided with Zang Ba's big gun, making a loud clang.
When the two fought against each other, they were evenly matched, and there was no winner.
Zang Ba held the big gun, licked his lips, his face showed excitement, and shouted: "As expected of a general of the Shu army, he has some skills, just watch the gun."
Zhou Tai sneered twice and faced him with a sword.
The two of them killed each other with great joy.

After killing more than thirty people, they reunited, but the winner has not yet been determined.
The soldiers who were fighting in a melee not far away from Zhou Tai and Zang Ba were also furious and fought hysterically.
The soldiers on both sides were strong and brave, and they were even more bloody when they killed people.
Although the fighting was very simple, either slashing with swords or killing people with sneak attacks, it was fierce and fierce.
"I killed three people.
That's enough money.
I've made a profit."
A Shu soldier covered his left chest that was bleeding continuously, roared, and fell to the ground with a bang.
The same thing happened to Cao Jun.
Soldiers on both sides roared and kept slashing with their swords, all in an effort to kill a few more people.
The two armies were evenly matched, and the situation on the battlefield was extremely stalemate, with no winner in sight.
In addition, Xiahou Yuan did not send more troops to fight, and Xu Shu did not ask anyone to support Zhou Tai.
It was just Zhou Tai and the soldiers led by Zang Ba fighting in a fierce battle, but the impact was not large.
"Dang Dang Dang" When Zhou Tai and Zang Ba were fighting fiercely, the excited sound of gongs was heard.
Zang Ba forced Zhou Tai to retreat with one move, and shouted: "Zhou Tai, I will spare your life this time, but I will kill you next time."
He didn't understand why Xia Houyuan withdrew his troops, but he carried it out resolutely, leading his soldiers to follow in an orderly manner. withdraw.
Zhou Tai led his army to pursue and kill him, then withdrew his troops and returned.
A great war has come to an end for the time being.
Zang Ba was extremely depressed.
After he returned with his soldiers, he quickly came to Xiahou Yuan's side, clasped his fists and asked: "Grand Governor, when the last general and Zhou Tai are fighting fiercely, why did you order the withdrawal of the troops?"
