"Huh?"

"Yifeng, what's the matter with you?"

At this moment, when Lu Meng heard the news, he couldn't help frowning and muttering.

Hearing this, Zhu Ran first faced the generals and smiled, then showed a serious look on his face, and arched his hand: "Governor, in my opinion, when our army besieges the city, we must first allocate our troops. ”

"Today, the main force of our army gathered here has more than 35,000 people, plus the 5,000 elite soldiers who blocked Guan Yu in Hanjin, and General Huang Lao stationed in Changsha, a total of nearly 50,000 troops."

"Therefore, I think that the siege force needs at least no less than 20,000 troops, otherwise once Guan Ping gathers troops and attacks one point, our army's defense line will definitely collapse."

"Secondly, seize the surrounding strongholds, but I think that only 5,000 troops plus General Huang's headquarters will be enough!"

As soon as he spoke, Zhu Ran's face was indifferent, and he said softly.

Seeing that he didn't say anything for a while, Han Dang couldn't help it, and couldn't help but say: "Zhu Ran, if you had just allocated 10,000 troops, our army would have 10,000 more. ”

"What about this army of 10,000?"

As soon as these words fell, all the generals in the palace reacted one after another, staring at Zhu Ran's body tightly.

yes, and 10,000 more?

"Dadu Governor, Jin made a mistake, and I hope to forgive my sins."

At this moment, Zhuge Jin was worried, slowly stood up, and begged for sin.

"Ziyu, what kind of crime are you?"

At this moment, when Lu Meng saw this, he couldn't help but be confused, which one is this playing.

Immediately, Zhuge Jin broke off and muttered an explanation: "Governor, generals, just now we all ignored the northern defense line. ”

"It's still General Zhu who thought about it properly, took this section into account, and reminded Jin."

After a pause, seeing that the doubts in the eyes of the generals were getting stronger and stronger, he couldn't help but light his voice and said loudly: "Now our army has entered Hanjin in advance and cut off the waterway for Guan Yu's headquarters to return to defense. ”

"However, we have ignored that from Xiangyang to Gangneung, there is not only a waterway, but also a land route."

"Therefore, General Zhu's plan is to build a defensive line in advance of the northern defense line to resist the Jingzhou soldiers who return by land."

As soon as these words fell, Zhu Ran immediately gave up his hand, his words were firm, and he said: "Generals, that's right, what Mr. Ziyu said is exactly what Ran thinks. ”

"Guan Yu can't break through Hanjin, and he is worried about the situation in Jiangling, so he will inevitably choose to return to the land route, although it takes a little time, but it is better than being trapped on the river all the time."

"Therefore, Metropolitan Governor, our army should also plan as soon as possible, and we must not be on guard."

With Zhuge Jin and Zhu Ran's explanations successively, the generals thought about it and realized it.

Seeing this scene, Lu Meng, who was standing upright, couldn't help but smile slightly, and said secretly: "It seems that our army is really full of talents, even if I die in the future, Dongwu will still be able to compete with Cao Liu." ”

"Lord, you must reuse the generals."

At this moment, Lu Meng's face suddenly relaxed, he was really relieved!

Originally, he was riddled with illness, and what he was most worried about was that after his body was damaged, he would fall into a situation where no one could preside over the overall situation.

But now, Lu Xun, Zhu Ran, and even Zhuge Jin have all shown their own abilities.

In this way, why should Dongwu be afraid of Cao Liu?

"Okay, the governor of Pontus ordered that after two days, our army will march west against the river and point at Jiangling."

"This time, we must seize Jingzhou, kill Guan Yu, and take Jiangnan."

A cold shout sounded instantly, Lu Meng's face was serious, and his words revealed that the general was strong, and when the generals heard the news, they all surrendered their promises and left.

Immediately after, outside the public security city, within a radius of several miles, the flag was fierce, and the soldiers and soldiers of Wu were stepping up preparations for war, and there seemed to be a strong fighting spirit in the sky.

This scene all indicates that the war is about to break out!

………

At the same time, Gangneung City, Guanfu.

"Ladies and gentlemen, just now, Ben General has already received the battle report from Hanjin."

"As expected, Wu Jun led the crowd to attack and take the port."

"Now, the commander of the Wu army, Lu Xun and the prince and the marquis fought fiercely on the river for several battles, but the victory or defeat was not scored, and they have not been able to break through the defense line for a long time.

After a pause, Guan Ping's eyes were solemn, he looked around, and said solemnly: "As expected, Lu Meng, who is stationed in the public security, must have also gotten this news." ”

"Therefore, Ben will guess that in no more than two days at the latest, the Wu army will be stationed under the city and besiege the city."

"From this point of view, if you want to hold Jiangling City, the only way to rely on us to resist the offensive of the Wu army, drag them under the city, and wait for the reinforcements sent by my father to return to defense, and the king of Hanzhong in Shuzhong gets the news and sends reinforcements to the east."

"In this way, our military has a chance to win."

"Therefore, for today's plan, the only way to delay is to delay time, as long as Gangneung is not lost, our army will be invincible!"

With a word, Guan Ping looked at the generals and said slowly.

When the words fell, Deng Ai's face on the side remained unchanged, and he arched his hand and said: "Major General, now there are more than 8,000 garrisons in our army, even in the past few days, the young and strong people in the city who have been recruited to defend the city have about 15,000 troops. ”

"Ai guesses, presumably the strength of the Wu army is only 30,000 people, and the gap between the two sides is not too big."

"Defend the city, you can still hold it for at least half a year."

Deng Ai looked confident, and when the rest of the generals heard this, they also smiled and seconded the proposal.

Yes, the Wu army is not good at attacking fortifications, let alone a fortified city like Jiangling.

Therefore, the generals had great confidence that they would be able to hold the city.

Hearing this, Guan Ping smiled and said slowly: "Liu Jia, two days ago, Japan ordered you to transfer the people of the villages around Jiangling, clear the wilderness, and clear the outside of the city. ”

"How did you do this?"

As soon as the words fell, Liu Jia stood up in an instant, and said firmly: "Major General Qiyu, I have safely transferred the people around the city outside the city, and now I will place them in Zhongzhou, Zhijiang and other cities. ”

"Okay."

"Liu Jia, you are doing well this time, the merits will be recorded for the time being, and then the prince will be reported to the prince after the war, and then the award will be given."

"No."

only said that he had received the promise, Liu Jia suddenly looked happy and said loudly.

He himself is a thief, and he responds to the Jingzhou army against public opinion, in order to gain fame in the army.

Now, he has made war exploits, how can he not like it?

Immediately, looking at the confident look on the faces of the generals, Guan Ping smiled, but he couldn't help but pour a basin of cold water.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if there are only 10,000 troops defending the city in this battle, can you be sure that you will not lose the city if you defend it?"

"Major General, what do you mean by this?"

Looking at Guan Ping's indifferent face, Deng Ai's heart couldn't help sinking, so he took the lead in asking.

He knows it too well, every time Guan Ping has such a look, he definitely has a miracle!

After pondering for a while, Deng Ai showed resoluteness on his face and arched his hand: "Young General, you need to hold the city without losing it, at least the 5,000 elite soldiers of our army who have returned to defend must stay in the city for 3,000." ”

"Relying solely on the original garrison and the people recruited, Ai can't guarantee it."

"Therefore, Ai Neng guarantees that as long as there are 3,000 elite people left in the city, the young men who are recruited in the meeting will hold the city for at least half a year!"

In a speech, Deng Ai spoke firmly, and took the lead in expressing his position.

When the words fell, the generals Sun Wolf, Pang De and other generals from the side, all looked puzzled, and stared at Guan Ping tightly with strange eyes.

This is, and it's going to be a surprise again?

This sentence is the only thought in the hearts of the generals at this time.

After half a sound, Pang De first arched his hand and said: "Young General, you want to send troops out of the city, and you don't stick to the city?" ”

"Yes!"

As soon as the words fell, Guan Ping nodded and affirmed.

"Major General, but now that the Wu army is in full swing, our army is still holding the city and the strength is insufficient, how can we still have the strength to fight the enemy in the field?"

At this time, Sun Wolf also looked worried and said slowly.

"Hahaha."

"Ladies and gentlemen, if you think about it carefully, if our army really sticks to the city with all its might, with the strong city defense of Gangneung, it will definitely be able to keep the city from being lost, this is inevitable."

"However, once the strongholds around Jiangling are taken by the Wu army, and the city is completely besieged, how will the war situation develop?"

After a pause, he couldn't help but look at the generals, and there seemed to be a hint of remembrance between his eyebrows, and then said: "Then our army is the former Cao Ren." ”

"He, Lu Meng, can become the former Zhou Lang."

"The Art of War: The city will be lost if it is defended for a long time, this sentence is extremely reasonable."

"If you think about it, our army can indeed go all out to defend the city, maybe it will last for a month, and it can hold it for a hundred days."

"But what about half a year of siege, what about a year?"

"Could it be that our army can only rely on the arrival of assistance to break the enemy?"

As soon as the words fell, Deng Ai thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "So far, this is the only way, right?" ”

"After all, our army is insufficient, and even if there is a miracle strategy, it may be difficult to achieve it."

As soon as these words came out, Pang De, Sun Wolf, Liu Jia and others seconded the proposal, and then admonished.

Seeing this, Guan Ping's eyebrows were relaxed, he waved his hand to stop, and said: "Lu Meng, the governor of the Wu army, had his thoughts on Jingzhou more than ten years ago, when Zhou Lang was critically ill. ”

"Therefore, when Lu Su was not dead, Lu Meng has been stationed in Lukou, always inspecting the terrain of Jingzhou and preparing for the capture of Jingzhou."

"It can be said that Lu Meng's plan to take Jingzhou is not an overnight thing, but has been premeditated for a long time, this opportunity he has been waiting for a long time, and it is even more imperative to take Jingzhou!"

"Therefore, Ben Jiang could have imagined that when the Wu army was besieging the city, neither the father nor the reinforcements from Shuzhong would be able to quickly aid Jiangling."

"If our army simply sticks to the city and pins the victory or defeat of the war on the reinforcements, then the battle will be difficult and the battle situation will be in danger!"

"Therefore, the general wants to attack first, disrupt the deployment of the Wu army, and then muddy the waters, so that the situation will become more and more favorable to our army."

As soon as he spoke, Guan Ping looked confident and said softly.

Hearing this, the generals were solemn, and Pang De arched his hand and said: "Young General, do you already have a great plan?" ”

"The plan is already there, as long as Gangneung can be defended without losing it, our army will definitely be able to grasp the initiative in the war this time."

"Of course, the battle situation in Gangneung is also something I have always been worried about, so I have never made up my mind."

At this time, Guan Ping also looked worried, thinking slowly.
