Chapter 321: Galloping Jianghan (3)
"Come, come, generals, sit." Wang Wei warmly greeted the generals to his tent and invited them to sit down.
As soon as the four of them sat down, they saw Wang Wei's personal soldiers coming up with fish soup, meat, and wine.
"This fish soup is cooked first. Could it be that before General Wang set out on the expedition, he ordered the cook to do it? Liao Hua looked at the fish soup and said in surprise.
So confident?
"That's nature. Although the Jiangdong Navy is powerful, we are not bad. The strength of the army is equal, and the people of Jiangdong do not want to live from us. On the contrary, only a dozen ships were burned, and I am still too little. Wang Wei smiled, and then beckoned: "Everyone has done this toast." ”
Wang Wei picked up the wine glass, saluted Huang Zhong, Ding Feng, and Liao Hua said.
"Okay." The three generals naturally did not have no objections, they all ate this glass of wine boldly, and then ate their own dishes. Wang Wei picked up the fish, chewed it, and said: "I won't tell you anything, I was a fisherman when I was a teenager, and I was a good fisherman, and I also ate countless fish, but I still have a good mouthful. The fish, shrimp, and crabs on the Yangtze River are all delicious. ”
"I also grew up eating fish and eating mountain delicacies. Mountain delicacies, and river freshness. Jingzhou, Jingzhou. In the west, there are mountains, Han water, the Yangtze River, mountain treasures, and river freshness. It is really a land of anointing, the land of abundance. Liao Hua also felt it and ate a bite of fish soup.
"In such a rich place, you can't let Cao Cao and Sun Quan go. The generals still need to work hard to kill and injure the Jiangdong Navy. ”
Huang Zhong also smiled and picked up the wine glass and said.
"Okay, let's do this, let's encourage together." Wang Wei said with a smile.
The atmosphere is superb and very cheerful. This made Wang Wei extremely happy.
You must know that Wang Wei is a loyal minister, he is a general personally promoted by Liu Biao, Liu Biao is here, he will never betray Liu Biao, even if Liu Cong can keep Jingzhou, Wang Wei will always follow.
But Cao Cao went south, and Liu Cong surrendered. Wang Wei thought about it, so he chose Guan Yu between Sun Quan and Guan Yu.
And before under Liu Biao's account, it was really shit. The soldiers have average money and food, some of the warships are also in disrepair, and the generals and officers in the army only know that they are in the same stream with Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, and they are up and down.
Wang Wei is a man who can fight, and he is not greedy for money, but among his colleagues, he is like a lotus flower in the mud, and he does not speculate for more than half a sentence.
It's like now, everyone goes out to fight together, and comes back with a small victory to drink, and then is ambitious, hoping to build up another career, which is really happy.
Not to mention Wang Wei, so is Huang Zhong.
In the past, he was in Changsha, and he also followed Liu Pan to crusade against Jiangdong, and Taishou and the general also worked together, hoping to settle Jiangdong.
However, Liu Biao's support is extremely average. The strength of Changsha County was too weak, there were too few soldiers and horses, and Sun Quan sent Taishi Citun soldiers near Changsha, Liu Pan and Huang Zhong could only look at the ocean and sigh.
Like now, it is not false that the naval army is at war with the Jiangdong people.
Joyfully.
Guan's generals Huang Zhong, Ding Feng, Liao Hua, Wang Wei and others crisscrossed the Yangtze River, so happy. But Zhu Zhi couldn't get up.
After Zhu Zhi and Zhu Ran's father and son fought with the Guan Navy, they escorted the remaining grain ships back to Jiangxia and E County.
There are 10,000 sailors left in Exian County, and the water village stands in the north of Exian County, on the south bank of the Yangtze River. The leader of the troops is Zhuge Liang's brother, Zhuge Jin.
But it's really staying.
You must know that Zhuge Jin is a civil servant, although he can also lead troops, but he is decent, and there is nothing surprising about it. Let him go into a certain place, and he will be invincible, but he can't.
However, it is not worthwhile to stay in the rear and carry out support tasks.
The water village in Exian County is huge, enough to accommodate the water army of Zhu Zhi, Zhu Ran and his son, as well as grain ships. When Zhuge Jin heard the news, he ordered the water village to be opened to welcome the father and son and the boat in.
"The soldiers went down to the village and set up camp, burying pots and making food. Take care of the wounded and keep the prisoners in good hands. After Zhu Zhi gave the order, he was invited by Zhuge Jin to enter the big tent.
"The two generals were shocked." Zhuge Jin asked his soldiers to bring wine and food, then pinched the wine glass and toasted.
Zhu Zhi and Zhu Ran each took a sip of wine, but they had no intention of eating.
"That Wang Wei, Huang Zhong is really powerful, although we are not afraid of the big war, but escorting the grain ship is really unbearable. Now there are two ways, send someone to ask Wu Hou to send 20,000 sailors to help me. Either take the land route and go through Jiangxia to the public security. ”
Zhu Zhi sighed.
He thought about it, there are only these two roads, and these two roads are not good roads, if Sun Quan sends 20,000 sailors to escort food and gather 40,000 horses, he can pass.
But correspondingly, the number of sailors in the public security area will be reduced.
If you go overland, it's protracted. Although there are many mountains in Jingnan, but the lower field zone of Chang'an is also a plain, which belongs to the southern rest of the Jianghan Plain.
But by land, it's not just long. And you need carriages and horses, people's husbands. At present, the Jiangdong forces are in this area, and there are not so many big cars and people.
The four and a half counties have just been annexed, and it is not good to call on the people on a large scale.
In addition, the grain was transported from Jiangdong, then transported from the boat in Exian County, and then transported to the north bank by the public security on a boat, which was extremely cumbersome and troublesome.
All in all, whatever the choice is, it's a big question.
This is the difference between a water army and a water army.
There is also a water army, but the difference between the water army is a southerner and a northerner.
In this time and space, Cao Cao has no choice, because Cao Cao doesn't even have a water army. Wang Wei's naval army that could fight all surrendered to the Guan family.
In history, Cao Cao had a naval army, but the Jingzhou soldiers had poor combat effectiveness, and the northerners were not adaptable, Cao Cao was protracted, the grain route was long, and the sergeants and soldiers of the army were sick, so they started the battle of Chibi with Sun Liu, and the result was a complete defeat.
And now Jiangdong is facing off against the Guan family. If the two sides face off from each other in the north and south and are separated by the Yangtze River, then it must be the Jiangdong people who have the upper hand.
Because the Jiangdong naval army is not only numerous, but also extremely elite, as long as each guards the stronghold on the south bank, the Guanjia forces can only look at the ocean and sigh.
But now Sun Quan has gathered an army on the north bank, the grain route is long, and there are not enough sailors to escort him, which has led to the current situation.
The root is still in Zhou Yu, and Sun Quan must go ashore.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with going ashore, if you occupy Nanjun, you can prepare for a breakthrough in Xiangyang and completely occupy Jingzhou in the future. But the Guan family is very strong, really strong, not weak.
Although when the Guan family faced Cao Cao, the turtle couldn't shrink and became the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. But the confrontation with Sun Quan is still not false.
If Sun Quan is put in the position of the Guan family to confront Cao Cao, he will only be a turtle with a shrunken head, this is no way to do it, Cao Jun is invincible, and it is just a fool to be tough with Cao Jun.
All in all, with the Guan family's move, the situation became more and more unfavorable for Jiangdong.
"Father. It is better to ask the lord to send troops to break the water village of Wang Wei, Huang Zhong and others. If the Guan family did not have a navy, they would not be our opponents. We can raid the county towns and villages along the coast of Jingzhou. ”
Zhu Ran was quite bold, so he gave an idea.
Zhuge Jin was on the side, and he could only blink. Let him figure out how to break through the Guan family, that is impossible.
Zhu Zhi shook his head and said: "If we attack its water village, we need forty or fifty thousand people, and we may not be able to attack it." The Guan family has soldiers and horses in Xiangyangtun, if the soldiers and horses go south. And Ma Liang is asking for it in the name, this is all a threat. The heart is not in me, the north shore is not in me, don't force it. ”
"Don't worry about it for now, find a way to transport the grain over first. We disembarked and traveled by land, trying to find carts, cattle and horses, and escort food. And quickly report the news to Wu Hou to know, and ask Wu Hou to make his own decision. ”
Zhu Zhi had a strong sense of responsibility, but he couldn't sit still, he got up with his hands on his knees, asked Zhuge Jin for pen, ink and silk cloth, wrote down an official letter, and quickly passed it to the public security.
At that time, Sun Quan was not in the public security, but in the camp on the north bank of the Yangtze River.
So this official letter crossed the river again and went to the camp in Jiangbei.
At this moment, Sun Quan's Jiangbei battalion had as many as 70,000 people, 20,000 naval troops, and 50,000 infantry troops. The infantry army is on land, and the naval army has a water village to form a joint camp.
At present, there are generals such as Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Ling Tong, Xu Sheng and other generals in the camp, and Jiangdong generals and elites have poured out.
Zhou Yu still wanted to forcibly take Nanjun and gain a foothold on the north bank, but Sun Quan felt that something was wrong with this trip.
Historically, Sun Quan's Northern Expedition did not win, but the defensive battle was never lost.
In the past, when Cao Cao was in Xiangyang, before leaving, he ate a chicken, and the remaining chicken ribs were really tasteless, and it was a pity to abandon them.
Coincidentally, Sun Quan is also eating chicken.
Midday.
Sun Quan left Lu Su to eat together, and the safe dishes of Sun Quan and Lu Su were the same, including salted shrimp, stewed chicken, fish, and a stack of tofu.
Sun Quan is young, and the Sun family is a general, Sun Quan is usually quite able to ride and shoot, practice martial arts, and have a great appetite. Therefore, the wind swept the clouds, and ate most of the dishes, leaving only the chicken ribs, which was tasteless and a pity to discard.
The round-faced Lu Su has a bigger appetite than Sun Quan, and the dishes on the table have been swept away by him, and even the chicken ribs have been chewed, clicking, and the bones have been bitten off.
Eating like this, there is a sound.
It's really not etiquette. But Lu Su didn't care about etiquette, after eating and drinking, Lu Su stretched his legs straight, touched his round belly, and looked satisfied.
Round face flushed.
"Hehehe, it's also a pleasure to watch Zijing eat." Sun Quan looked at the chicken ribs in the bowl, a little depressed, and a little thoughtful, but when he saw Lu Su so refreshing, he felt that his worries were swept away, and said with a smile.
Happy and cheerful people can infect others.
Sun Quan likes Lu Su very much because Lu Su is very interesting.
Lu Su moved his toes when he heard the meaning, and then sat down, holding his feet with both hands, very casually, and then looked at the bowl on Sun Quan's case, his eyes flashed, and he smiled: "Coincidentally, Wu Hou finished eating, but only chicken ribs remained." In line with the current situation. ”
The implication is that it's time for us to retire.
But it is that people think differently. Zhou Yu has a strong enterprising spirit, but Lu Su is more secure.
Now that the situation is deadlocked, Sun Quan feels that something is wrong, and Lu Su also feels that something is wrong.
