Bai Feng's speed was very fast. He had arrived a day earlier than he had expected.
A journey that would have taken seven days was completed in six days.
Don't underestimate this day.
On the battlefield, being a minute faster could change the outcome of the battle.
And this difference of a day could magnify this effect without limit.
Most importantly, arriving a day earlier meant that they could set up camp near the city gate of Wu Jun's army.
After finishing all the preparations, Bai Feng did not choose to attack the city immediately.
Instead, he chose to rest for a day to sort out the soldiers' arrogance.
After all, the soldiers had been on the move for a long time. It was very tiring. Naturally, they needed to rest.
Bai Feng stayed in the tent and said slowly.
"We are only ten li away from Wu Jun's territory. You can say that we are in someone else's territory."
"But don't worry. I believe that this place will be mine soon."
"Of course, I can't be too cautious. Otherwise, I will be the one to lose in the end."
"As the saying goes, an arrogant army is bound to lose."
"Complacency leads to arrogance. Pride leads to regret."
"Even if those old guys from Dong Yue Wu don't come out, I have a way to deal with them."
"As long as they come out in the end, it will be the moment of my victory."
"However, I have to work harder in the end."
"After all, I didn't bring a lot of rations for this expedition."
"Therefore, my army can't last for long."
"That old guy Zhang Zhao must have noticed this weakness of mine. That's why he chose to defend the city instead of fighting."
"Otherwise, if I had enough rations, I could just use strong firepower to suppress them."
"In that case, I believe that no matter how strong the Wu Jun's defenses are, they won't be able to withstand our attacks."
"It's a pity that I don't have a lot of rations. Obviously, I can't form a long-term firepower."
"Therefore, this time, I have to get rid of this so-called Dong Yue Wu within a limited time."
"Otherwise, I will be the one to be killed."
"You have to know that this is also my biggest weakness."
"I don't want to do this either. Unfortunately, there's no other way."
"As for what I should do now, I'm not very sure either."
"I don't have any good ideas. I can only do my best."
"There's no need to doubt that."
The news that Bai Feng had come to Kuaiji to set up camp quickly reached Wu Jun.
When Zhang Zhao and all the other officials of Dong Yue Wu heard this news, they were all shocked.
"What? Bai Feng is coming so soon? Didn't he say that there was still one day left?"
"Sigh, man proposes but God disposes. It seems like God is on Bai Feng's side."
"Don't talk nonsense. I don't think Tian is on Bai Feng's side."
"That's right, that's right. Whether this Bai Feng dares to attack or not is another matter."
"But what should we do now?"
"Bai Feng arrived a day early. We didn't expect that."
"After all, according to my previous calculations, there were still seven days to travel. Now, this guy is here in six days."
"It's been brought forward by a full day. This is indeed unexpected."
"Now, this bastard Bai Feng must be thinking of how to attack us. What should we do now?"
"Who knows? Our Dong Yue Wu's Great General and Governor have been transferred away by the Lord."
"Right now, there are only a few minor generals in the city. They still need us, the minor strategists."
"What can we do when faced with this Bai Feng?"
"Why don't we just surrender?"
"This Bai Feng might spare our lives. At least he won't kill us directly."
"That's right. Although this is very disgraceful, dignity is not as important as life."
"Yes, that's not unreasonable. Why don't we talk to Lord Zhang Zhao?"
"I think it's fine. After all, Lord Zhang Zhao asked the Lord to surrender during the Battle of Red Cliff. I believe it will be the same this time."
"That's right. I think we can try now."
Who knew that the whispers of the officials below had already been heard by Zhang Zhao?
Especially when he heard that these fellows were choosing to surrender, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"Bastards! You bastards, are you trying to betray Dong Yue Wu by saying these words? "
"Although we might not be Bai Feng's match now, it's not certain if we really fight."
"The two armies haven't even started fighting, and you traitors are already acting like this."
"No wonder the Lord didn't put you in an important position. Now you know why."
"A bunch of traitors. How shameless."
"Don't forget that the Chief Steward of the Kuiji is now me, Zhang Zhao."
"Right now, I have the final say in where we go."
"As long as I say we won't retreat, we definitely won't retreat."
"As long as I don't say we surrender, even if we all die in battle, we will never surrender."
"Don't forget that we are the powerful children of Jiangdong. We are not cowards who will surrender to just anyone."
"It's just that the Lord isn't here now. If the Lord was here, he would have killed all of you."
"Of course, if the Lord was really here, this wouldn't have happened."
"In any case, the Kuiji is the headquarters of Jiangdong. We definitely can't allow others to invade, and we definitely can't lose it."
"Otherwise, even if we managed to escape, how would we be able to face the Lord?"
"If we really can't, then we can only use the previous method to close the city gates tightly and prevent Bai Feng from attacking."
"As long as we wait until Bai Feng's provisions run out, that will be the time for us to counterattack."
"Only then can Dong Yue Wu survive this crisis."
"Everything else aside, if the Lord knows that the Kuiji is lost, he will definitely be in despair."
