Chapter 148: Zhuge Liang's next step
If you want to extinguish the fire in front of Liu Jun, it is estimated that it will take a while to look at this posture.
The battlefield is changing rapidly, and when the fire is extinguished and then pursues the Jiangdong army, the daylily is cold. Liu Jun knew that there was no need to continue the attack.
Zhang Fei said very reluctantly: "Really. Koto's turtle son is still playing with fire. Why did Zhuge Junshi stop like this. ”
Wen Ping was bored with Zhang Fei's words, from the beginning, Zhang Fei trembled a lot, and Wen Ping's ears were a little numb.
"General Zhang, if you continue to pursue, then you will directly step through this fire. No one is holding you back. Wen Ping directly commanded Zhang Fei's army.
Zhang Fei can be said by Guan Yu, can be sarcastic by Zhuge Liang, and can also be scolded by Liu Yu, but being sarcastic like this by Wen Ping, he was furious, grabbed Wen Ping's armor, pulled Wen Ping in front of him, and said viciously: "What do you mean?!" ”
Wen Ping was not afraid, and looked at Zhang Fei coldly, he didn't believe that Zhang Fei dared to do anything to him.
Guan Yu grabbed Zhang Fei's arm, glared at him and said, "Yide, you are presumptuous!" ”
Zhuge Liang looked at Zhang Fei indifferently, and he thought that Zhang Fei would not be good.
Zhang Fei was glared at by Guan Yu, and the whole person was stunned, and immediately put down Wen Ping. Facing Guan Yu, Zhang Fei will be quick and honest. But he remembered Wen Ping in his heart, and found an opportunity to take revenge on Wen Ping in the future. Of course, this kind of revenge only disgraces Wenpin, and Zhang Fei will not do anything vicious.
Wen Ping is unlucky, and he is remembered by Zhang Fei, a bad man, and he will have to be careful in the future. What's more, Zhang Fei's relationship with Dian Wei and Lu Bu is very good, if they join forces to make trouble for Wen Ping, then there will be fun to watch.
Liu Jun will not mention it for the time being.
At this time, the Jiangdong army had all boarded the boat, and only Zhou Yu and the last group of people were left. Sun Ce was worried about Zhou Yu, so he didn't upload it for a long time and waited on the shore. Gan Ning and other generals have always been by Sun Ce's side, and Wen Chen and others, like Zhang Zhao, are just in a hurry. Liu's army could be killed at any time, and the governor only brought a thousand soldiers and horses to stop it, and in terms of quantity, it was obvious that he was hitting a stone with an egg. In addition, Sun Ce has always refused to get on the ship, Zhang Zhao and other Wenchen are uneasy, worried that something will go wrong.
In the end, the sky-high fire burned, and everyone in the Jiangdong Army was stunned, and after reacting, they were overjoyed. This must be the strategy of their capital governor Zhou Gongjin.
Everyone's thoughts are the same, with such a fire, Liu Jun has no choice but to chase after him. It should be said that there is no way for the time being, and if you want to chase it, you must either take a detour or wait for the fire to go out. In short, whether it was a detour or waiting for the fire to be extinguished, the Jiangdong Army retreated calmly.
Zhou Yu returned to Sun Ce's side with a complete thousand people.
Sun Ce hurriedly greeted him and said anxiously, "Gong Jin, you're finally back." ”
"Let the lord worry, he is committing a capital crime." Zhou Yu was in a good mood, and joked: "Looking at the lord and your gods below, is it possible to think that you will die in the next place?" Hey, I never thought that my Zhou Yu was in such a state in your hearts! ”
The people around laughed, Zhou Yu was praising himself in disguise. But then again, Zhou Yu actually used a thousand people to block Liu Jun, which is really awesome.
Gan Ning was a very curious baby, and asked anxiously, "Dudu, how did you do it?" ”
Everyone, including Zhou Tai, who was seriously injured and was lying on a stretcher, looked at Gan Ning as if he was looking stupid.
Sun Ce is also very worried about Gan Ning's IQ, such a big fire, a person with a normal IQ, can know that it is okay to attack with fire.
Gan Ning noticed the unnatural eyes of the others, and asked suspiciously, "Why are you looking at me like this?" ”
People are stupid and don't know yet. It's really sad.
In order to retain Gan Ning's image in the hearts of everyone, Zhou Yu smiled indifferently: "Xingba, this time I used a fire attack. The fire burned, and it was difficult for Liu Jun to go further, even if he had thousands of troops. ”
Gan Ning understood, but he still didn't understand what the other people's eyes meant just now. However, Gan Ning still knew that that kind of look made him uncomfortable, and there was a feeling in the dark that told him that he must not continue to dwell on this, otherwise he would lose face. But Gan Ning didn't know that he was already a shame.
Sun Ce slapped Zhou Yu on the shoulder, then took Zhou Yu's hand and said, "Let's go, let's withdraw!" ”
Zhou Yu smiled slightly, Sun Ce didn't say much, but he could feel Sun Ce's concern for him.
There are only 1,000 people left in the entire Jiangdong Army, Zhou Yu, and it won't take long for them all to be in place.
"Sail and anchor!!" Sun Ce shouted, and all the Jiangdong warships headed towards Poyang Lake.
Poyang Lake, here is the Jiangdong Army's naval base all along. Most of the recruits in Sun Ce's navy were trained here. Now Jiangdong has quickly discarded Yuzhang, but Poyang Lake has become a natural danger for Jiangdong to compete with Liu Jun.
It can be said that a powerful naval army is the support of the Jiangdong Army. But Sun Ce knew in his heart that in Jiangdong now, the strength of the naval army has dropped to the maximum. Now it's up to Zhou Yu to rely on the strategy he mentioned before.
After the fire was extinguished, Zhuge Liang led the army through the ashes burned by the fire.
Zhuge Liang still ordered the soldiers to extinguish the fire around the fire, otherwise, in the current era of more lush flowers and trees, if this fire is not dealt with, the surrounding area of Chaisang can be burned into a white ground.
A long time has passed, and Liu Jun understands that the Jiangdong Army has retreated safely, and even if it catches up, it doesn't make much sense.
But Zhuge Liang still wanted Liu Jun to march towards Jiujiang Port. Liu Jun's hearts were full of incomprehension, and they couldn't guess Zhuge Liang's mind at all.
Facing everyone's puzzled eyes, Zhuge Liang didn't have any response, just shook the feather fan indifferently and kept pretending to be forced.
When we arrived at Jiujiang Port, it had become a blank slate.
When Jiangdong Army was leaving, he burned Jiujiang Port by the way.
"Damn, Sun Ce, this kid has done a really good job. burned down the port of Jiujiang. Wen Ping said hatefully.
Zhang Fei seized this opportunity, but he remembered Wen Ping's sarcasm about him, so he took the opportunity to sarcastically say: "You kid has a brain pump." If Sun Ce didn't burn down Jiujiang Port, would he leave it for us as a naval base? ”
"What General Zhang said is very true." Wen Ping is a sincere person, he didn't expect Zhang Fei to take the opportunity to be sarcastic, and he recognized Zhang Fei's statement very much.
Zhang Fei snickered for a while, secretly saying that this person was really a brain pump, otherwise others would be scolding him, and he would have said that what he said was very true.
"Zhuge Military Division, since Zhou Yu's strategy of leading the fire to stop our army was successful, we have lost our plan to eliminate Sun Ce in Yuzhang. Why are you chasing here? Guan Yu came to Zhuge Liang's side and said everyone's thoughts.
Zhuge Liang still pretended to be forced, and said incomprehensibly: "This place is Jiujiang, and it is an important place in Jiangdong. Wait, please see, from the Jiujiang River, is Poyang Lake, as far as I know, that is the place where the Jiangdong Navy trains recruits. Now it is the natural danger of the Jiangdong Army to resist our army. I have brought you here in the hope that you will have a look, and before long, our army will start a fierce battle with Jiangdong here! ”
After Guan Yu and the others were told by Zhuge Liang, they immediately took out the map and looked at it silently. It is indeed as Zhuge Liang said, Jiujiang Port is the confluence of many swallowing tributaries of the Yangtze River, the terrain is prominent, close to Poyang Lake, facing Danyang County, Poyang County, Lujiang County, if you want to hold this place without the backing of Jīng Rui's naval army.
"The rivers in Jiangdong are criss-crossed, if you are a little careless, I am afraid that Sun Ce will plot against it. The advisor reminded us not to despise the enemy. Guan Yu saw Zhuge Liang's intentions at a glance.
"Yun Chang's wisdom is high, I am deeply grateful!" Zhuge Liang praised Guan Yu as if his elders praised the late progress of the younger generation.
Before the change, Guan Yu would definitely be angry. However, Zhuge Liang showed strong abilities one after another, which made Guan Yu feel that Zhuge Liang's ability was very strong, so he recognized Zhuge Liang's ability and would not be dissatisfied with Zhuge Liang's words.
Wen Ping has been absorbing the dialogue between Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu, one is a world-famous general, and the other is the commander of Jiangdong this time, the dialogue between the two contains things that Wen Ping has not seen before, so he listened very carefully. This is a way for Wenpin to improve himself.
Zhang Fei didn't hear what he meant, he was still concerned about the moment, and said: "Strategist, brother, let's talk about it." What are we going to do next? ”
Wen Ping also asked: "Yes, military advisor, should we continue the pursuit now, or do we make another plan?" ”
Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "Of course, I will continue to march." However, our attack this time is not Poyang and Danyang. It's Lujiang! General Zhang Xiu's reinforcements to support Lujiang were blocked by Jiangdong and could not reach Lujiang for a long time. General Zhang Wenyuan was already struggling in Lujiang at this time. According to the spies, Sun Ce and Cao Cāo have teamed up to attack Lujiang, so in this way, we must support Lujiang. Otherwise, Zhang Wenyuan will definitely be defeated. ”
"Yes!" All the generals present should be.
Zhuge Liang immediately made arrangements for all the troops. First of all, Zhang Yun was informed to transfer the naval troops to Jiujiang Port. Because Yuzhang County did not have the Jiangdong Army's naval army, Zhang Yun made a detour to Jiujiang Port, which was a very smooth thing.
At the same time, Zhuge Liang sent 10,000 soldiers and horses to Wen Ping and asked him to go to Chaisang City to station. Chaisang is the most important city in Yuzhang, and the significance of occupying this place is relatively large. After taking here, Yuzhang symbolized falling into the hands of the Shenwu Imperial Court.
Zhuge Liang made arrangements for Guan Yu and ordered him to immediately arrange for soldiers to build a port. Zhuge Liang had long known that Guan Yu had a high talent in naval attainments, so he made Guan Yu the chief general of the new Jiujiang Port. Guan Yu didn't have any problems, and immediately started to do it.
For Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang asked him to take 30,000 soldiers and horses to Lujiang this time, and Zhang Yun was responsible for picking them up.
Zhang Fei's favorite thing is to charge into battle, and Zhuge Liang's arrangement makes him very happy.
However, as Zhang Fei's brother, Guan Yu has something to say.
"Military division, Yide xìng Ge reckless. Now to rescue Jiujiang, I have to face the two armies of Cao and Sun, I am afraid that I will suffer calculations. Guan Yu knew Zhang Fei's xìng son very well, and out of responsibility for the overall situation of the imperial court, Guan Yu had to persuade Zhuge Liang to choose another person.
Zhang Fei didn't expect that his dearest brother didn't believe in him, and he was speechless for a while.
And Zhuge Liang retorted to Guan Yu and said: "Yun Chang's words are wrong. In this raid on Lujiang, what is most needed is to play with majesty, so that Cao Cāo and Sun Ce's two armies think that our army is pouring out, make them tremble, and reduce the pressure on Lujiang. Yide has a unique style, which can best show the majesty of our army. is the most suitable candidate. If Yun Chang is worried, this army division has a way to solve it. ”
Zhang Fei was overjoyed, it seems that he has a good impression in the heart of Zhuge Junshi.
Guan Yu looked at Zhuge Liang expectantly.
I saw Zhuge Liang say to a young man behind him: "Ji Chang, as General Zhang's staff officer, give him advice." ”
The method Zhuge Liang said was to arrange a staff deputy for the reckless Zhang Fei, and this candidate was Ma Liang Ma Jichang, whom Zhuge Liang admired very much in Jingzhou.
On this expedition, Zhuge Liang took Ma Liang with him, in line with the meaning of exercising Ma Liang. Now it's time to give Ma Liang a chance.
When Ma Liang heard that Zhuge Liang gave him such an opportunity, he was excited, and his face was a little excited: "I am determined to live up to the trust of the military advisor." ”
Guan Yu has no objection to this arrangement, although Ma Liang joined Liu Jun for a short time, but the talent he showed is well known. If Zhang Fei had a calm person like Ma Liang by his side to help, then he would have suffered a lot less.
Ma Liang came to Zhang Fei and said respectfully: "Please also ask General Zhang to take care of me." ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Zhang Fei admires cultured people very much, and Ma Liang belongs to the kind of people that Zhang Fei admires.
Zhuge Liang told the two: "In this raid, you must remember one thing, you can't retreat when you go." The more you make a noise, the less pressure Lujiang will have. ”
"I'll find out." Zhang Fei and Ma Liang said in unison.
When Guan Yu saw this scene, he secretly said that Zhang Fei and Ma Liang had a good heart, and it was estimated that there would be no problems.
The next thing is that Zhuge Liang is waiting for Zhang Yun's army to arrive, during this time, except for Wen Ping who went to Chaisang with 10,000 soldiers and horses, the rest of Liu Jun is either building this Jiujiang port, or is seizing the time to rest in order to deal with the possible battle next.
After Wen Ping arrived in Chaisang, he found that this city was really an empty city. Wen Ping was a cautious man, and he took the lead in sending people into the city to investigate. In the past, the Jingzhou army in Liu Biao's period often suffered losses, and Wen Ping developed a cautious habit.
After confirming that there was no problem, Wen Ping entered Chaisang City with his soldiers and horses.
