Zhu Di personally led 50,000 troops to Pingzhou.
Currently outside Youzhou City, it is under close surveillance by Li Mu's soldiers.
Therefore, the enemy knew his movements very well.
In the Jin army camp.
Li Mu said to his generals, "Zhu Di only brought 150,000 troops to Youzhou.
Not long ago, 50,000 soldiers came to support Yunzhou.
Now, Zhu Di took away another 50,000 people to support Pingzhou.
Our plan has been initially achieved.
Youzhou is now empty inside, which is perfect for our army to capture it!"
His initial idea was to force Zhu Di to divide his troops.
If it is not divided, Pingzhou will be in danger.
If the troops are divided, Youzhou will be in danger.
So, no matter what, Li Mu can gain the advantage.
This is a case where the army has an advantage in numbers.
However, Li Mu's best battle was to defeat the enemy with superior numbers.
Such a rich war is almost non-existent except when fighting against foreign races.
"General, what do you think we should do now?"
A Jin army soldier asked.
Li Mu said decisively: "Order the entire army to assemble quickly and attack the city!
This commander will capture Youzhou City within seven days!"
He estimated the time.
It took Zhu Di about half a day to reach Yunzhou.
The army will have to rest by then.
Two days passed.
The round trip takes four days.
The 100,000 troops he sent out could at least hold Zhu Di back for four days.
Moreover, the crisis in Yunzhou has not been resolved.
Therefore, Li Mu had to take Youzhou within seven days.
Afterwards, he joined forces with the 100,000-strong army led by Sima Shang to completely defeat Zhu Di's army.
Two hours later.
After having a full meal, the soldiers of the Jin army gathered outside the city of Youzhou.
This time, they moved almost all the siege equipment here.
Yao Guangxiao was shocked when he saw this scene. He quickly said to Chen Heng, "General, the Jin army is coming with great momentum. It seems they are about to launch a general attack on us."
Chen Heng had been through many battles and had his own way of dealing with this situation.
"Light the signal fires and gather all the arrows, incendiary oil, rolling logs, and fallen rocks in the city. Order all soldiers to be fully armed and ready for battle!"
Everyone knew that war was about to begin again.
After several days, they have become accustomed to this high-frequency scale of war.
Yao Guangxiao said: "General Chen, we must hold on until the crisis in Yunzhou is over."
Chen Heng said: "Master, please rest assured, I know what to do!"
Only then did Yao Guangxiao feel relieved. He hurried down the city and went to Prince Yan's Mansion, where he met Xu Miaoyun and told her all about the current situation outside Youzhou City.
Xu Miaoyun immediately said, "Master, please rest assured. I know what to do. I will contact the women in the city to prepare food and supplies, and quickly make arrows and armor.
I will encourage all the young and strong men in the city to go to the top of the city and help the soldiers defend the city.
Please rest assured, Master, I will do my best to help the soldiers and defend Youzhou City!"
At this moment, Xu Miaoyun perfectly demonstrated her wisdom and calmness.
Hearing her say this, Yao Guangxiao felt much more relaxed. "If all the people in the city help us, Youzhou City will surely be safe!"
Immediately afterwards, Xu Miaoyun went to arrange those things.
During this period, the Jin army attacked the city like crazy.
Both the enemy and our side suffered heavy casualties.
Late that night.
Princess Xu Miaoyun, wearing armor, climbed up the city wall with Zhu Gaochi.
At this time, Yao Guangxiao and Chen Heng stayed on the top of the city wall, discussing the next plan for defending the city.
When they saw the princess approaching, the two immediately stepped forward to greet her. The former frowned and said, "Princess, this is dangerous. You should go back to the mansion and rest first."
The latter echoed, "Yes, Princess, we don't know when the Jin army will attack again. You can't stay here."
Xu Miaoyun shook her head and said, "I came here to see the wounded."
Yao Guangxiao wanted to say something else.
After all, before Zhu Di left, he repeatedly warned the princess to ensure her safety.
If anything unexpected happened to the princess, Zhu Di would fight the enemy to the death at all costs.
However, when he was about to say this, he saw Xu Miaoyun asking about the well-being of several soldiers who were lying on the battlements.
Seeing this, Yao Guangxiao smiled and said, "Having such a princess in Youzhou is enough to ensure decades of peace in Youzhou."
Chen Heng nodded sincerely and said, "That's right. I hope that Youzhou can survive this disaster."
"It's Daqin."
Yao Guangxiao said solemnly, "It is my Great Qin that must survive this catastrophe. As long as the Great Qin can remain safe and sound this time, the Chu State will no longer be my Great Qin's opponent in the future."
Xu Miaoyun was squatting and carefully treating the injuries of a wounded soldier. She skillfully applied herbal medicine and then tied a white cloth. The whole process was no less skillful than that of a military doctor.
At first, the wounded man thought that it was the military doctor who came.
When he saw the other person's face, he suddenly became excited and wanted to get up, but his wound suddenly hurt at this time, so he had to lie down quietly.
Seeing this, Xu Miaoyun said, "Rest well. Don't move for an hour."
The wounded man hurriedly asked, "Princess...why...why are you here?"
