Husband war, courage also. One blow of strength, then decline, three and exhaustion.

This is a passage said by Cao Di, a military master in the Spring and Autumn Period. Sun Jian may not be a master of tactics, and even Cao Cao and Wang Li in the world cannot be compared, but he also understands the truth of being vigorous.

Lu Xun had already led three thousand iron horsemen to break into Lu'an, but his Jiangdong army was still fleeing in the sea of fire, and it was obviously more difficult to break the city than to move the two mountains of Wangwu and Taihang, so he had to spit on the city head angrily and put down a cruel word to go home, and set up a camp in the dense forest a few miles away from Lu'an.

The dead soldiers who died in the fire were naturally brought by some lieutenants and lieutenants to deal with them, but he was not in a hurry to enter the account, but sat in front of an open space with Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and other old brothers, as well as Zhou Yu, Sun Ce, Lu Meng and other juniors.

Don't forget the past, the teacher of the future, this is the precept left by the ancestors. Where you fall, you get up from there, this is what the old Wang who steals vegetables next door to Sun Jian's house said.

Anyway, no matter what he said, Sun Jian felt that there was some truth, and if he wanted to stand up again, it was always necessary to make a post-war summary.

"Righteousness, morality, and public refuge, this time General Ben can be said to have thrown this old face to his grandmother's house. Originally, I thought that this Lu Kang Lao'er would be difficult to make any waves in this acre and three points of land with Lu's own strength, but who knew that we were firmly controlled by him here.

Moreover, today's Lu Xun Xiaoer's surprise attack on our army made the brothers suffer a lot, and the damage was as high as three or five thousand, which was enough to withstand the casualties of our ten years. Brothers, what can you do to break the deadlock here? ”

Sun Jian's words are very level, not only self-criticism, but also the meaning of seeking advice from Cheng Pu and others.

It's a pity that Cheng Pu or Han Dang, both of them may be regarded as famous generals in Jiangdong for a while, but the conspiracy is not what the two of them are good at, and their reputation comes more from their bravery, toughness and loyalty.

As for Huang Gai, although he is a little more strategic than Cheng Pu and the others, this place is not a red cliff after all, and he can't offer the whimsical plan of waiting for Zhou Yu to fight Huang Gai and be willing to fight.

Sun Jian turned his gaze to Zhou Yu on the side, with a little encouragement in his eyes.

A long time ago, he had included Zhou Yu in his account, but he just wanted to obtain Danyang through Zhou Yu's uncle Zhou Shang, he didn't take Zhou Yu to heart, and even when he arranged the troops, he only ranked Zhou Yu, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai and others as ordinary generals, and did not regard them as any of the strategists of Jiangzuo.

It wasn't until today that the twelve words that Zhou Yu shouted in the chaos made Jiangdongjun stabilize his position, and made him start to reflect on whether he had always underestimated Zhou Yu's talent.

Zhou Yu coughed lightly, hugged his fist to Sun Jian and said: "Lord Qiqi, today's defeat is not due to Lu Xun's surprise attack, nor is it because my Jiangdong warriors lack war horses, but because I Jiangdong does not have a powerful information agency. ”

Sun Jian nodded, although Zhou Yu's words meant to excuse him, they were not completely unreasonable.

After all, if the Jiangdong Army had a powerful and fast information network like Wang Li, not to mention that Lu Xun only had 3,000 iron horses, even if Lu Xun had 10,000 iron horses, he Sun Jian could still overturn Lu Xun under the horse.

Cavalry is of course the nemesis of the infantry, but as long as you can grasp the enemy's information in advance and make some arrangements appropriately, such as deer, iron thistle and other things, the infantry can't become a nightmare for the knights?

Seeing that Sun Jian was finally willing to put his words in his heart, Zhou Yu's heart perked up slightly, and he continued: "Lord, although I said that I suffered a big loss today, the last general thought that the future would be long.

The temporary delay in communication may be remedied in the future, but there is another matter that is imminent, even related to the safety of tens of thousands of warriors in Jiangdong and the future of Jiangdong, which needs to be decided immediately! ”

"What?"

Sun Jian was startled, just after saying two words, Cheng Pu had already jumped up and scolded.

"The ignorant boy is boastful, and he dares to say wildly, this battle is obviously because of the lack of information about our war horses, so this defeat was caused, you actually said that there are more important things than this, and even related to the lifeblood of my Jiangdong, what is the reason? Hmph, if it weren't for Zhou Taishou's face, Cheng would have made you ugly today! ”

It seems that in history, Cheng Pu and Zhou Yu are not at odds with each other, not necessarily because Zhou Yu is above Cheng Pu, maybe because Cheng Pu has always looked at Zhou Yu unpleasantly.

Zhou Yu just said a word, and was scolded by Cheng Pu for being a bloody dog.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu is a person with a magnificent bearing, and he is also a hero who is praised by Fan Cheng as "a heroic hero in the world, a beautiful husband in Jiangzuo", he didn't care about Cheng Pu's angry words, after all, he was indeed a small character in front of Cheng Pu and them.

Zhou Yu hugged his fist apologetically towards Cheng Pu, and turned to Sun Jian again: "Lord, this Lu Boyan has been under Wang Deyu since he left Qichun, according to the news from more than a month ago, he and Liao Yuanjian sat in Zhengyang and confronted Liu Xuande's army.

Please forgive the last general for daringly asking, now that Lu Boyan has waved his troops, who is staying in Zhengyang? Could it be that he Liao Yuanjian alone dared to confront Liu Guanzhang and failed to point to the new breath?

Lord, there is no need to say more about the martial arts of Guan and Zhang, Liu Xuande and Zhuge Kongming are also wise people, Lu Boyan dared to ignore the right thing and abandon Zhengyang to come to Lu'an, which can only explain one problem, that is, the war in Yuzhou has been pacified, and it must be Wang Deyu who has the upper hand! ”

Just now, Zhou Yu was still saying that the information agency could be put aside for the time being, and in the blink of an eye, he taught Sun Jian a lesson on the importance of information speed, and slapped Sun Jian in the face.

Sun Jian was shocked into a cold sweat, since this ten months, he has only heard that Cao Cao and Liu Bei are fighting in Yuzhou or Liu Bei and Guo Jia are fighting, but he did not continue to send scouts to find out the news of Yuzhou.

According to what he thought, the war in Yuzhou may take half a year or even more to settle, so his heart is all on the stumbling block of Lu'an, but he doesn't want to go through Zhou Yu's analysis to know how outrageous his mistake is.

Because Zhou Yu's analysis is well-founded, it sounds like even if it is different from the facts, it may be closer to the truth of the matter, otherwise how can everyone explain that Lu Xun dared to lead the army to Lu'an?

Is he worried that the Lu clan will send troops without regard to military orders, or is he planning to travel here behind his lord's back?

Everyone was stunned, and Zhou Yu continued: "The battle of Jizhou in the Central Plains has come to an end not long ago, and Yuan Highway was killed in the battle and Yuan Benchu was defeated, so the last general has a bold speculation that Wang Deyu may have moved to Jizhou and is preparing to go south to Huainan and Shouchun!" ”

Maybe this is what Mr. Du Fu said, the words are not shocking and endless, a word fell to the ground, startled a pool of spring water, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Huang Gai and Sun Ce and others were restless, and Sun Jian stood up with a solemn face, looking at the direction of Yuzhou and was speechless for a while.

"Report!"

A hurried footsteps sounded, and a scout rushed over from the direction outside the city, and before he could reach everyone, he had already fallen off his horse, "Lord Qiqi, the spies in Anyang City have come to report, Wang Li's soldiers have gone to Yuzhou, Guan Yu died in battle, Liu Bei fled in embarrassment, Cao Cao went east to Xuzhou, and the entire Yuzhou has been fully included in Wang Li's hands!" ”

Sun Jian was furious, and with a "bang", the ancient ingot knife suddenly came out of its sheath: "What an important matter is this, why did you only find out now, why did you report it now?" ”

The scout wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and replied tremblingly: "When Guo Jia and Liu Bei were fighting, because the Xinxi City was all closed, all the messages were interrupted, and the brothers in Anyang City were trapped in the lonely city and did not get any news.

It wasn't until three days ago that Liu Bei and Zhang Fei's army suddenly moved to Anyang, and the brothers knew that Liu Bei was defeated, Cao Cao fled, and Yuzhou had fallen into the hands of Wang Li alone. ”

In this way, it is indeed not the fault of the scout, but that there is a problem with the root of the problem, and he has been ignoring the timeliness of the information!

Sun Jian's face was still cold, but the edge of the ancient ingot knife was already facing downward.

The scout quietly glanced at Sun Jian's face and continued: "Hearing the news of the brothers in Anyang City, Wang Li's army Huang Zhong, Zhang Liao, Gan Ning and Yan Liang did not enter the city immediately, but killed them in the direction of Lu'an! ”

Sun Jianhuo's color changed, and he asked Zhou Yu: "Sure enough, as Gong Jin expected, Wang Deyu really calmed Yuzhou and went straight to Sun, what does Gong Jin think?" ”

Zhou Yu threw the branch in his hand and stuck it obliquely on the ground, got up and shouted: "The three armies can win the commandery, but the horseman cannot win the ambition." Our army is newly defeated, how can we get away with a cowardly name? For the sake of today, the only way to fight is to fight! ”
