Shouchun is the prefecture of Yangzhou, Wei State, and is also the number one important city in Huainan. Its gains and losses are related to the situation in Huainan. Therefore, both Sun Chen and Wang Chang regard Shouchun as the top priority of offense and defense.

Wang Chang transferred Zhuge Liang from the new city back to Shouchun, and the tens of thousands of people who were aided from Qingzhou, Xuzhou and Yuzhou were all put into Shouchun's defense.

Although luring the enemy into the depth was Cao Liang's strategy, luring the enemy into the depth was not a silence of giving up without a bottom line. The bottom line of the Wei army in Huainan was Shouchun City, which would be the last line of defense that the Wei army adhered to, and there should be no mistakes.

Sun Chen was determined to win Shouchun. The large-scale retreat of the Wei army made Sun Chen think that this was a manifestation of the Wei army's cowardice. After all, the Wei army had only 30,000 to 40,000 troops in Huainan, which was a huge gap compared with the 130,000 Wu army's 130,000 troops. As long as the Wu army seized this opportunity, it would not be difficult to win Shouchun or even the entire Huainan.

So Sun Jing concentrated all the troops of the Wu army and rushed to Shouchun City in one breath, surrounding Shouchun City and was in a mess.

This time, Sun Qian no longer played the trick of surrounding three que 1 and directly surrounded Shouchun City. He not only wanted to take Shouchun, but also wiped out Shouchun's defenders. Only in this way can he annihilate the main force of the Wei army in Huainan. After taking Shouchun, the entire Huainan was also under Sun Qian's control.

A 130,000 army was stationed at the city of Shouchun, with a rainbow of momentum. Sun Qian looked at the army under his command, which was so powerful that the flags covered the sun, and a sense of heroism arose. Once upon a time, Emperor Sun Quan of Wu also wanted to lead his troops to come to the city of Shouchun, but the new city was a hurdle that he could not overcome in his life, let alone Shouchun?

Now Sun Feng is complacent and arrogant, and he is not without capital. At least the place that the great emperor Sun Quan has never reached has been trampled by him. If he can take Shouchun, he will undoubtedly become the first meritorious figure of the Wu Kingdom and be supported by the people of Jiangdong. Then it will be a natural thing for him to abolish the emperor and establish himself in the future.

So Sun Feng was more eager for this victory than ever. After completing the siege of Shouchun, Sun Feng concentrated his strength and launched an attack on Shouchun City with all his strength.

Standing at the head of Shouchun, you can see the dense crowds of people from Wu Jun, like a flood of dam breaking the dam, swarming in all places outside Shouchun City. As long as you can see, they are covered by crowds, like locusts passing by or ants moving in. In addition to the abortion, there are also abortions. If a patient with dense phobia is suffering from this scene, he will be dizzy.

Wang Chang was not dizzy. After all, he was a famous general who had been through the battlefield for a long time. He had never seen any big scenes before. It is not surprising that he saw this situation.

Although the Wu army was fierce and powerful, Wang Chang had already made sufficient preparations for combat in Shouchun. Shouchun was a prefecture city. Whether it was the size of the city or the height and thickness of the city wall, it was beyond the reach of ordinary cities.

This time, Wang Chang transferred back the troops from Hefei, and the troops supported by other states, Shouchun's defenders also reached more than 30,000. With soldiers and food in his hands, Wang Chang was naturally unhappy. Faced with the Wu army's swarm, Wang Chang seemed calm and calm, and ordered the troops guarding the city to fight with all their might and to block the Wu army's attack even if they fought to the death.

Wang Chang implemented a plan to lure the enemy into depth, otherwise he would not easily give up an important town like Hefei New City. However, Shouchun was the bottom line of the Wei army. If the Wu army lures the Wu army to the city of Shouchun, Wang Chang's mission was completed. However, he must guard Shouchun before Cao Liang's army arrived. He must not lose Shouchun. Otherwise, it would not be called lure the enemy into depth, but would give the enemy a big gift.

However, Wang Chang still has great confidence in the defense of Shouchun City. Although he had just been transferred from Jingzhou to Huainan, he had worked on the southern front for a long time, especially in many battles with the Wu army, Wang Chang still had extremely rich combat experience.

This is probably also the intention of Cao Liang to transfer him from Jingzhou to serve as the governor of Huainan. Cao Liang hopes that Wang Chang has many years of experience in fighting with the Wu people, preside over the overall situation in Huainan, resist the attack of the Wu people, and win time for the main force of the Wei army to fight back.

Wang Chang knew that Cao Liang had great plans, so before Cao Liang's counterattack troops were in place, he had to drag the Wu army to the city of Shouchun. Only in this way could Cao Liang's counterattack plan be implemented smoothly.

As for how many days Cao Liang needed Wang Chang to stay in Shouchun, Cao Liang did not say it, so Wang Chang was not sure how many days it would take, but there was one thing that was undoubtedly, no matter how many days it would last, Wang Chang could not let Shouchun lose, so Wang Chang made a long-term preparation for perseverance.

The walls of Shouchun City are high and strong, with all defense facilities, rich reserves of food, grass and weapons, and 30,000 garrisons came to defend the city, so Wang Chang had no reason to be afraid of the Wu army coming to attack.

Although Shouchun's defenders were basically the county and state soldiers of each state, and did not have the most elite field troops of the Wei army, the strength of these county and state soldiers was precisely the defense of the city. Their ability may be weaker in field battles, but when it comes to defending the city, it is unattainable.

On the other hand, the Wu army was their shortcomings in siege. This was not the first time Wang Chang and the Wu army had dealt with. He knew the shortcomings and strengths of the Wu army. If it were a water battle, the Wei army was indeed not a match for the Wu army. They were all across the river, and the Wei army could only sigh and could not match it. This was also an important reason why the Wei army had an absolute advantage but could never cross the Yangtze River.

But when it comes to the ability of land warfare, the Wu army is far from each other. Whether it is infantry or cavalry, whether it is field or siege, the Wu army is actually not good at it. Especially in the direction of siege, they do not seem to use other tricks except using the siege method of ants. Therefore, although the Wu army repeatedly invaded Huainan and Jingzhou, they were defeated without exception. Moreover, in decades of competition, they had never even fought a city, and at most they would only get some advantage in field warfare.

Moreover, this cheapness is very limited. If the Wu army had not been supported by the navy at any time, the Wu army that penetrated deep into the Wei Kingdom would probably have no way back.

So although they used a large number of troops and horses to attack Shouchun this time, they were crowded with people and aggressive, Wang Chang knew very well that the Wu people were just strong outside and the middle. As long as Shouchun defenders were united and united, the Wu people could not even step into Shouchun City.
