Chapter 280: Response
"This ......"
The ministers of Eastern Wu had just heard the news of Lu Xun's defeat and the destruction of the Yiling camp, and everyone was stunned by this sudden news.
Hearing that King Wu asked about the strategy to deal with it, they didn't have any good solutions.
Zhuge Jin saw that Sun Quan's face was very gloomy, and he couldn't help but come out and said: "King Wu, now that Yiling has been lost, the gate on the west side of Jiangling is wide open, and General Zhu Ran only has 5,000 troops in Jiangling, so we must send troops to support as soon as possible!"
"Of course, this king knows that reinforcements should be sent as soon as possible, but apart from this, do you have any other strategies to deal with it?"
Sun Quan's expression was a little impatient.
The generals Zhu Huan and Lu Fan and others are all people who know the soldiers, and they are very clear about the current situation facing the state of Wu. If Jiangling is lost, then Jingzhou will fall into the hands of Liu Bei.
Liu Bei occupies the upper reaches of the river, advances and retreats freely, and can pose a great threat to the downstream Eastern Wu. It can even threaten Wuchang and Jianye.
Now, all they can do is what Zhuge Jin said, sending reinforcements as soon as possible to protect Jiangling.
"Now there are more than 10,000 troops in the hands of the Metropolitan Governor, if they can converge with the soldiers and horses of Buzi Mountain, they can also block the speed of Liu Bei's eastward advance, with the ability of the Metropolitan Governor, Liu Bei will definitely not be allowed to easily capture Jiangling!"
At this time, Zhuge Jin could only comfort him with two words.
"The Metropolitan Governor...... Hehe, this king trusts Lu Boyan so much, this is how he repays this king? Lu Xun misunderstood me!"
Sun Quan regretted using Lu Xun as the governor of the capital at this time, after all, Lu Xun was not very old, and he had never led troops alone before, so it was still too reluctant for him to go against Liu Bei, who had been defeated in the past ten years.
When the ministers of Eastern Wu heard this, they could only bow their heads and remain silent.
Since the death of Zhou Yu, Lu Su and Lu Meng, the three major governors, only Lu Xun was left who could command the army in Eastern Wu.
"Alas......"
Sun Quan let out a long breath, his city was extremely deep, and he was very dissatisfied with Lu Xun just now, so he said such a thing, and now he forcibly calmed down and began to think about what the consequences would be if he was defeated in this war.
"Ziyu, you say, once Jiangling is lost, will Liu Bei continue to advance eastward?"
Zhuge Jin pondered for a while and said: "Liu Bei's expedition to the east is nominally to avenge Guan Yu, but judging from the ministers, he actually wants to seize Jingzhou and plot Jiangdong. ”
Sun Quan's face changed, and he asked, "So, will Liu Bei continue to go east?"
"This ...... The minister is not sure, the minister heard that Liu Bei was on this expedition, Kong Ming, Zhao Yun and others all spoke strongly to persuade him, if he could let Kong Ming come forward, maybe he could make Liu Bei change his mind!"
Sun Quan sighed and said: "I hope so! If Jiangling City is broken, I wonder if Ziyu is willing to send another envoy to the Shu army? As long as the Shu army is willing to call off the army and truce, this king is willing to cede the four counties of Jingnan and return Fu Shiren, Mi Fang and others!"
Zhuge Jin was silent for a moment and gave up his hand.
For Eastern Wu, the best situation is to keep Jiangling, if Jiangling can't be kept, then the four counties of Jingnan will also lose their barriers and fall into the hands of the Shu army.
Sun Quan's idea is to decisively stop losses once nothing can be done. Anyway, it didn't take long for Jingzhou to arrive.
......
After a day of rest, Huang Zhong and Guan Xing were the forwards, leading 8,000 men and horses to open the way in front, and Yang Yun took Ma Tan, Zhang Bao and Chen to the Chinese army. The Beidao march quickly towards Gangneung.
When the land army was advancing eastward, the naval army led by Wu Ban and Chen Shi also occupied the water village that originally belonged to the Wu army, and began to send a large number of warships to patrol the upper and lower waterways of the big river, and also sent spies to Yidao City to check the movements of the Wu army.
"Your Majesty, there is news from Tanma, Lu Xun led his troops south, and Sun Huan should join forces outside, General Zhang Nan can't resist, and leads the remnants of the army and the Wuxi barbarians to join forces and retreat into the mountains and forests!"
After Ma Tan joined the army, he sorted out all kinds of information about the Shu army, and at this time, he urged him to come to Yang Yun's side to report the latest battle situation.
"Well, Zhang Nan's troops are not as good as the Wu army, although he was defeated, it is excusable, I don't blame him!"
"Pass the order, let Ji Chang gather his troops and horses, don't fight Lu Xun head-on, or follow the previous strategy to attack and harass the Wu army, as long as it can delay the speed of Lu Xun's return to Jiangling!"
For the Shu army, the most important thing now is to break through Jiangling as soon as possible.
Ma Jian nodded slightly, and immediately called the herald and asked him to find an opportunity to pass Yang Yun's order to Ma Liang's hands.
From Yiling to Jiangling, except for the Huya Mountain in the middle, there is no precipitous terrain, and the Shu army marched all the way east, and the news has already reached Jiangling.
By the time the Shu army came to the outside of Jiangling City, Zhu Ran, the general of the Wu army, was ready to defend the city.
Looking from afar, Jiangling City is more than ten zhang, such a strong city, there are few in the world, as an important town in the land of Jianghan, easy to defend and difficult to attack. With just a few thousand soldiers and horses, tens of thousands of troops can be stopped.
"However, in this world, the role of fierce generals is extremely great! I have four first-class innate generals in my hands, especially Huang Zhong is even more congenital, and one person can withstand tens of thousands of soldiers. ”
"The Wu army, which only has thousands of troops, is attacking the city with a fierce general, and it is difficult to support it for too long!"
Yang Yun looked at the towering city wall in the distance, and the thought in his heart turned.
"Your Majesty, are you going to attack the city immediately?" asked Huang Zhong as he rode his horse.
"Well, let's build siege equipment first, and as soon as the equipment is complete, attack immediately!"
Yang Yun gave the order. Tens of thousands of Shu troops immediately went into action, and some soldiers went to cut down the big trees outside the city and make ladders to hit the wood. There are mountains outside Gangneung Fortress, and the grass and trees in the mountains are abundant, and these plants and trees are quickly cut down.
When the army was preparing to storm the city.
Yang Yun was bowing his head and groaning, his gaze swept over Huang Zhong, Chen Zhi, Guan Xing, Zhang Bao and others, he was thinking about whether to pass on the method of condensing acupoints to them.
In this world, the martial arts have not formed a too strict system, even if they comprehend the realm of the innate great master, they only have one more ability to return qi with an extremely fast recovery speed, and can affect the qi of heaven and earth to perform a lore move in a short time.
What limits the strength of the innate great grandmaster is naturally the true qi in the body.
With Huang Zhong's ability, if he condensed forty-nine acupuncture points, and the acupuncture points were always connected with heaven and earth, his strength would increase dozens of times, and he could even collapse the city wall with his own strength. Become a transcendent being.
If there is no condensation of acupoints, Huang Zhong's performance, just like the day before yesterday when he attacked the Wu army camp, performed a killer move, and after consuming most of his strength, even Han Dang could fight him back and forth.
"Once the method of condensing the acupuncture is passed out, the strength of the generals of this world will skyrocket, and even in the future, there will be one enemy and one country!"
However, Yang Yun thought about it, now that the Shu Han side was in a disadvantage among the Three Kingdoms, if he didn't want to find a way to enhance the strength of Shu Han, the task of the Sanxing Han family would not be completed at all.
