Chapter 112: Lu Meng's Plans

The two stood on the bank of the river and pondered for a long time, but neither of them speculated on the reason why the Jingzhou soldiers suddenly abandoned the defense line of the beacon tower.

After half a sound, Zhuge Jin, who was wearing sharp armor, stepped over and bowed his hand and said, "Metropolitan Governor, General Lu." ”

"Before Jin was ordered by the lord to lead the army from Jingkou to cross the river to the west, there was a scout who reported to Wu Hou, saying that Jiang Qin's subordinates, who were pursuing the Jingzhou army, were completely annihilated by Guan Ping in the waters of Chibi."

"According to Jin's calculations, now the Jingzhou army is afraid that it has passed the Matun defense line."

When the words fell, Lu Xun, who was still young, couldn't help but suddenly mutter, "Mr. Ziyu, do you mean that Guan Ping ordered the evacuation of all the sergeants here when he passed through this place on his way back to defend Jiangling?" ”

Hearing this, Zhuge Jin did not object, nodded frequently, and very much agreed with Lu Xun's statement.

"It's just that the beacon tower was built by Guan Yunchang specifically to prevent our army from talking about it, how could Guan Ping give up the beacon tower stronghold dozens of miles along the river so easily?"

"Meng thought that this was the enemy's plan!"

However, at this moment, Lu Meng's eyebrows were still locked, and his face was worried, and he said slowly.

When the words fell, Zhuge Jin chuckled, and then explained: "Governor, I'm too worried! ”

"Actually, Guan Ping's withdrawal of the sergeant stationed at the beacon tower is not difficult to understand his intentions."

"After all, he led the army to make a detour through Huaishui, lift water, travel through the territory of Jiangxia, and return to Jingzhou, and then on the way, he designed to let Cheng Zhi and Jiangxia Cao's army clash, presumably because he had learned that our army was going to lead a large attack on Jingzhou."

"And now, the main force of Guan Yu's department is still confronting the Cao army on the front line of Fancheng, and our army really wants to go all out to take Jingzhou, and relying on the beacon tower along the river alone will not have the slightest effect."

"After all, if you take 10,000 steps back, even if the operation of the Metropolitan Governor to cross the river in white clothes fails, so what?"

"My army is attacking with all its might, on this big river, even if the beacon tower can warn in time, Guan Yu can get the news and rush back in time?"

After a pause, Zhuge Jin's face was relaxed, and he said slowly: "Therefore, Yi Jin guessed, presumably Guan Ping also thought of this layer, in order to avoid increasing casualties among his own soldiers, he withdrew all the soldiers when he passed through this place. ”

As soon as the words fell, Lu Meng and Lu Xunjin were silent and pondered.

Half a sound, both of them felt that what they said was extremely reasonable!

After a moment, Lu Xun's face remained unchanged, and he said softly: "Mr. Ziyu's analysis is good, maybe this is Guan Ping's idea, otherwise, he will never give up this line of defense out of thin air." ”

"That being the case, Grand Duke, go on with the march."

"Now, our army no longer needs to disguise, secretly go up the river, directly pull out the army, and forcibly take Jingzhou."

At this moment, after thinking for a moment, Lu Xun suddenly showed a serious look on his face and spoke hard.

"Jin supports General Lu's resolution, and asks the Metropolitan Governor to give an order quickly."

When the words fell, Zhuge Jin on the side didn't think much about it, and immediately gave up his hand.

After all, now that the Jingzhou army has withdrawn from the beacon tower and Guan Ping has returned to defend in advance, it means that the other party must have known the plan of his army, and the action may have already been leaked.

In this case, the sneak attack is no longer important, and the only way to do this is to lead the crowd to attack.

It's just that Lu Meng didn't decide immediately when the two persuaded him, but continued to say nothing and think deeply.

"Bo Yan, Ziyu, in fact, there is no chance of a sneak attack, as long as the operation is done properly, our army can still take advantage of its unpreparedness, attack Jiangling, besiege the city, and cut off the connection between Jiangling City and Guan Yu on the front line."

At this time, he saw Lu Meng's face cold and sneered.

After hearing this, Lu Xun couldn't help but groan secretly, and arched his hand: "Governor, this? ”

"Since Guan Ping knows that our army is going to attack Jingzhou, then he will return to Jiangling, and he will inevitably immediately order the whole army to be on alert to guard against our army."

"At this time, how difficult is it to sneak attack again?"

"Not only is it more difficult, but there is also the possibility of death."

"Governor, please think again!"

For a while, even Lu Xun, who had always been as stable as usual, couldn't help but admonish Lu Meng again and again.

The words fell, and although Zhuge Jin did not say it explicitly, the countenance on his expression had already been revealed, and he was also opposed!

After all, according to today's rapidly changing situation, the strategy of sneak attack is no longer advisable, and leading the main force to attack is the right way.

It's just that at this time, Lu Meng squinted at the two of them for a moment, and then showed a hint of laughter before he said loudly: "Hahaha!" ”

"Bo Yan, as early as when you took office, you had already personally contacted the public security guard Shiren, and when you first arrived, you had already made it clear to the governor that you had successfully recruited Shiren, and he was willing to raise the city to surrender to our army."

"In that case, such a good opportunity, why don't I take advantage of it?"

As soon as these words fell, Zhuge Jin was confused, and Lu Xun was thoughtful, but there was still a trace of ignorance.

Seeing their expressions, Lu Meng chuckled and explained: "Think about it, although Guan Ping got the plan that our army was going to attack Jingzhou, he returned to defense in advance. ”

"But he is only one or two days faster than our army at most, and in two days, he wants to be on alert on all fronts and guard against our army, which is impossible at all."

"And our army, at this time, can take advantage of this time difference to lead a light boat to gallop to the public security city and take over the city."

"The public security is located on the opposite bank of the lower reaches of Jiangling, only dozens of miles away from Jiangling City, as long as the city is taken over at that time, and then let Shiren lead the way, with him guarding the public security waters all the year round, he must be extremely familiar with the local terrain."

"In this way, with the already extremely fast light boat of our army, we can cross the north bank in half a day, and the troops will be under the city of Jiangling to besiege the city."

"With the terrain of Jiangling, it is not difficult to besiege Tuantuan, as long as our army cuts off the connection with Guan Yu, and then waits until the army arrives, it can be decided in a battle."

"Jingzhou, it will be broken!"

With a sprinkled speech, Lu Meng informed Lu Xun and Zhuge Jin of his intentions.

After listening, the two pondered carefully, and after half a sound, Lu Xun said first: "This policy of the metropolitan governor is indeed feasible!" ”

"I don't know Mr. Ziyu, can you have a different opinion?"

Hearing this, Zhuge Jin on the side smiled and said lightly: "This strategy is also feasible." ”

"It's just that although the light boat is fast, its defense is also extremely poor, and the number of sergeants it can accommodate is greatly reduced."

"I don't know, how many sergeants does the Metropolitan Governor plan to lead in advance and march west?"

As soon as these words came out, Lu Meng also knew that Lu Xun and Zhuge Jin had agreed, so he suddenly showed a serious look on his face, and ordered resolutely: "Okay, since this is the case, then the governor will start to order." ”

"This time, Lu Xun will be joined by you and me, and Gan Ning, Pan Zhang, Xu Sheng, lead six thousand sergeants, and hundreds of light boats to the north first."

"As for Zhuge Jin, Ling Tong is your deputy, and Zhou Tai, Han Dang and others, and the main force will follow."

"In this battle, Jingzhou will be broken, Guan Yu will be killed, and I hope that all the monarchs will work together!"

The next moment, Lu Meng boarded the warship and shouted at the generals on board.

A seat of speech, extremely high, as if it can be seen for miles on the river!

In the next second, the generals of the Wu army also responded: "Kill Guan Yu and take Jingzhou." ”

"Victory, victory."

Not only that, but when the generals were shouting angrily, tens of thousands of soldiers on the river were also boosted by their morale, full of war spirit, and shouted.

The roar resounded above the river, endlessly!
