The news of Yuan Shuxing's army was quickly transmitted to Jinling City by the school affairs of the school office.

At that time, it was the end of the year.

At the end of the second year of Chuping, it was also the first month of the third year of the first year of Renshen, Yuan Shu recruited soldiers and horses under his command in Luyang County, and took Sun Jian's death in the body, Sun Ce returned to his hometown to appease his father's coffin to guard the gap of filial piety, and canonized his cousin Sun Ben, who temporarily led the troops on behalf of Sun Ce in the Sun family, as the assassin of Yuzhou, and took the opportunity to recruit Sun Jian's original team, plus Yuan Shu himself in Nanyang County and Runan County in recent years, recruited 100,000 soldiers, and went east to Shouchun City and Jinling City.

This time, Yuan Shu sent people to Yanzhou according to the plan in advance, provoked local scholars and celebrities, and conceded relations with Cao Cao.

Before setting out on the expedition, Yuan Shu, with the help of Yan Xiang, first designed Chen Wen, the assassin of Yangzhou who planned Shouchun.

At the same time, it also includes his unlucky brother of the same clan, Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi.

Yuan Shuxian sent people to deliberately spread the news of his eastern expedition to Shanyang County.

Although Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi is Yuan Shu's cousin, he is close to Yuan Shao's faction, Yuan Shao has intended to make Yuan Yi become the assassin of Yangzhou over the years, but because of the war with Gongsun Zhan, it has been stalemate.

Yuan Shu, who wants to occupy Yangzhou, of course, can't let Yuan Shao and Yuan Yi's small abacus succeed.

When he learned that Yuan Shu was advancing eastward, Yuan Yu immediately panicked, he was afraid that the land of Shouchun would be obtained by Yuan Shu, and its power would be greater, so Xingye led his soldiers and horses to Jiujiang County, hoping to support Yangzhou Assassin Chen Wen to resist the enemy.

But who would have thought that these things were all in Yan Xiang's plan, and he asked Yuan Shu to send generals Le Zhuo and Li Feng to ambush Yuan Yu on the way to Jiujiang County, annihilating Yuan Yu and others in one fell swoop, and cutting off their heads.

Poor brothers of the same clan ended up in a fratricidal ending.

After killing Yuan Yi, the thorn in the eye, on the other hand, Yuan Shu sent Ji Ling, a general, to cooperate with Sun Ben, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others, to conquer Shouchun City in one fell swoop, and secretly executed Chen Wen, the assassin of Yangzhou.

wants to cover up, Yuan Shu's move is really that everyone in the world is blind.

But although the people of the world are not blind, they can't be guilty of angering Chen Wen and Yuan Yi.

So, what to do?

Everyone had to pretend to be blind.

At this point, Yuan Shu completely occupied Nanyang County, Runan County, Yingchuan County, Jiujiang County, Lujiang County and other places, and completely consolidated his power on both sides of the Huainan River.

In the next step, his goal turned to the location of Danyang County.

The battle in the southeast is about to break out.

After the news reached Jinling City, the whole city was shocked.

The potter had been prepared for Yuan Shu to come and invade him, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.

In history, Yuan Shu's expansion of strength and the battle of invading neighbors should have been fought between him and Cao Cao.

Of course, the ending was that Yuan Shu was beaten by Cao Cao to pee his pants because of arrogance and strategic mistakes.

But now, because of the butterfly effect, the opponent of Yuan Shu's expansion war has changed from Cao Cao to himself, and in terms of time, it seems to have come a little earlier than the time that happened in history.

The wheel of history has begun to deviate slightly.

But no matter what, the matter is already in front of us, and we have to find a way to solve it.

The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and the historical Cao Cao can beat Yuan Shu to pee his pants during this time period, and the potter feels that he can do the same.

Wetting his pants was too pediatric, and he decided to beat Yuan Shu out of the.

The potters hurriedly convened an emergency military meeting to gather the people to discuss how to resist Yuan Shu.

In the conference hall, all the advisors and generals of Jinling City gathered together, quietly listening to the information brought back by Guo Jia.

Guo Jia also put away his smiling face in the past at this moment, and rarely showed a serious look.

The potter was in a trance for a while, looking at Guo Jia who was so serious, he was a little skeptical that this kid had drunk too much last night.

Guo Jia said to everyone: "Yuan Shu's army, currently stationed in Shouchun, is rectifying the soldiers and horses, gathering the warships, the 100,000 army even includes the old soldiers under the command of Sun Jian, the former Jiangdong Tiger, its momentum is not small, if we are in Jinling City to fight with it, even if we win, I am afraid that it will destroy the countryside and fields of Jinling City and shake the people's livelihood, therefore, where to resist the enemy is the top priority." ”

Hearing this, he heard the pottery merchant immediately say: "Of course, you can't fight Yuan Shu in Jinling City, Jinling City is an important town, and it is also the core of Tao in Danyang County, and Yuan Shu must be blocked out of the boundaries of Jinling City...... Mr. Fengxiao, in your opinion, where should our army be deployed? Confrontation with Yuan Shu? ”

Guo Jia got up from his seat, raised his feet and walked to the screen with Pitu hanging in the hall, and after watching it carefully for a long time, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at it, and said loudly: "If Yuan Shu comes from Shouchun, he must pass through the land of Chaohu Lake, so that the mouth of the water is the important place to guard the throat of his army, but there is no fortification in the mouth of the army, if you fight with Yuan Shu in this place, the enemy is outnumbered, I am afraid that it is very unwise." ”

Guo Jia's words instantly lit up a bright light in the potter's mind.

In the seventeenth year of Jian'an, Sun Quan moved to Moling, changed his name to Jianye, and built a stone city in the mouth of the Xu, called the Xuwu, he relied on this city to defend, and in the eighteenth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty and the four years of the Wei and Huang Chu of the Three Kingdoms, two large-scale battles with the Cao army occurred in this place, and these two battles ended in the vain of the Cao army's labor.

According to Guo Jia's words, he could indeed build a fortress at the mouth of the river according to his method to block the invading army of Huainan.

"How long will it take for Yuan Shu to attack Jinling City?" The potter asked Guo Jiadao in a deep voice.

Guo Jia counted with his fingers, and then said: "Yuan Shu's army has just occupied Huainan, and Shouchun is waiting for him to come forward to clean up and stop, 100,000 horses, prepare grain and straw, and march together, and it will take twenty days to a month to reach Chaohu at the earliest." ”

"Enough!" The potter clapped his hands lightly and said to Chen Deng: "Yuanlong, quickly gather the people, arrange craftsmen, and build a fortress at the mouth of the Xukou to prevent Yuan Shu." ”

"No." Chen Deng knew that the matter was very important, so he hurriedly said yes, and then hurried to arrange this matter.

"Xu Chu, Xu Huang, Xu Rong, Tao Ji, rectify all the soldiers and horses in Jinling City, and go to Misukou to set up defenses."

The four generals stood up separately and said together: "No! ”

The pottery merchant turned his head to look at Han Hao again, and said, "Yuan Hei, I will lead the troops to the mouth of the Xusu to fight against Yuan Shu, and the supply of grain and grass in the rear and the safety of the garrison of Jinling City will be fully handed over to you...... Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, Chen Qun, and Sima Lang are all talented in governance, but they are not good at military scheduling, only you can take on the fundamental responsibility of guarding for me, after I leave, everything in Jinling City will be in your sole discretion, life and death, you are the only one. ”

Han Hao has never seen him talk to himself so seriously since he got to know the pottery merchant, and he also knows in his heart that this is the first major difficulty encountered by Jinling City since the reform, and this battle is not only related to the life and death of Jinling City, but also related to the position of Jinling City in the world in the future.

Han Hao straightened the color, and said solemnly at the potter: "With Han Hao here, there will be Jinling, and the prince can rest assured." ”

The potter sighed, reached out and patted the potter's shoulder, and said, "I am even more worried when you say that...... Han Hao is gone, and Jinling City is also here! I am very dissatisfied with your answer. ”

When Han Hao heard this, his face suddenly turned dark.

I really misjudged him, and finally thought he was serious, but it turned out that he was still like this bird!

I'm gone, and Jinling City is going to be there too?

I owe you?

What happened when Lao Tzu sold it to you?

Han Hao snorted unhappily and said, "Han's whole family is dead, and you have to keep Jinling City intact, Tao Fujun, are you satisfied with this answer?" ”

The potter still shook his head: "Not satisfied." ”

Han Hao was a little anxious when he heard this.

It's also too bullying.

"Then Fujun, you say, what do you want Hao to do? Are you satisfied? Don't I still have to swear by my Han family ancestor? ”

The potter straightened his color and said to Han Hao seriously: "Jinling City is here, Han Hao is also here, of course, your whole family is even more important!" No one is allowed to do nothing, you know what I mean? …… Of course, it doesn't matter if your ancestors aren't there, they're gone anyway. ”

Han Hao was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the potter fixedly, his lips were a little trembling for some reason, and his eyes were a little moist.

After a long time, he listened to Han Hao deeply at the potter and agreed.

"Han Hao swears here, he will do as the prince wishes."

……

……

In later generations, it refers to the water mouth between the water mouth between the water mouth of the mountain and the Qibao Mountain, the water and the mountain is in the territory of Dongguan Town, Hanshan County, and the pass is called Dongguan by the river, and the Qibao Mountain is in the Huanglong Township of Wuwei County, and the pass is called the West Pass by the river.

The two mountains confront each other, the situation is dangerous, it is the outlet of Chaohu Lake, the water flows out of the mouth of the Huanglu River to the mouth of the Huangluo River, flows southward, enters the Makou River between the upper and lower Jiulianwei through the town of Cangtou to the Makou Gate, and enters the Yangtze River at the mouth of the Shentang River.

It can be said that the mouth of the water is located near Chaohu Lake, which is connected to the mountains, the plains, and the waterways of the land, which can be fought by the army and the navy.

Once Yuan Shu has crossed the mouth of the wet beard, he can cross the Yangtze River and approach Jinling City.

After the arrival of the potter's army, the army and the people cooperated, and at a very fast speed, they hurriedly built a stone fortress that could resist foreign invaders with stones, mountains and rivers.

Although Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses are many, most of them are newly recruited recruits, and their combat effectiveness is not very strong, while the 40,000 military horses of the pottery merchants are all thieves and officials who have been on the battlefield in the past, and they should be far above Yuan Shu's army in terms of combat effectiveness.

But the potter's army had a shortcoming.

Although there are some warships left by Zhou Xin in Danyang County, there is no decent navy, and although Yuan Shu's navy is not high, there are many warships, especially after he captured Shouchun, he got a large number of warships in the dock of Liyang, and these warships are enough for him to expand a huge naval army, which is now the most worrying for the potters.

Once the land battle failed, Yuan Shu organized the soldiers and horses to divert the route to the south, and the potters had no strength to stop him from entering Jinling City.
