Chapter 480: Chen Mo's killer feature
"Zijing, what happened? In such a hurry? "Chaisang, after Zhou Yu got off the horse, he saw Lu Su waiting for him, and asked as he walked.
"Gongjin's worries in the past have come true." Lu Su's face was a little heavy.
"Ming Army Sailor?" Zhou Yu turned his head and looked at Lu Su with a smile on his face.
"Hmm." Lu Su nodded: "He Qi sent a battle report, Huiji was broken, Shangyu, Juzhang, Guling and other more than ten cities fell, and now I am afraid that the entire Huiji has been captured." ”
"Can He Qi and Quan Cong ever act recklessly?" Zhou Yu's face changed, and he asked in a deep voice.
"No, since the Ming army can quietly cross the sea to attack Huiji, it will naturally be able to cross the river, He Qi is worried that supporting Huiji will give the Ming army an opportunity, so He Qi only let the counties of Wu County block the city gates, beware of the Ming army from attacking Wu County, and did not wave the army to the rescue." Lu Su shook his head and said.
"Not bad!" Zhou Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, the situation was not too bad, and there was still room for redemption, so he hurriedly walked with Lu Su to Sun Quan's mansion.
"By the way, how is the Jingxiang war?" Lu Su asked.
"Although the Jingzhou Navy has made progress, it is still a lot worse to be the enemy of our army, but these Jingxiang Navy Army always seem to want to bring our army to the shore recently, and I guess that Chen Mo's elite are lurking in the cities of Jingzhou." Zhou Yu shook his head, although the Jingzhou Navy has made progress, but on the Yangtze River, the Jiangdong Army will always be the overlord, and whoever comes will be the same.
In this way, even if the Jingzhou naval army is completely destroyed, there is no way to take advantage of the situation to seize the land of Jingbei.
Lu Su nodded regretfully, now the meeting is about to be lost, and there is no time to care about this, when the two of them came all the way to Sun Quan's mansion, they saw that most of the civil and military forces in Jiangdong had already gathered here, and there was an unspeakable silence in the air.
Zhou Yu frowned, stepped forward and saluted Sun Quan, "See the lord!" ”
"Gong Jin is back." Sun Quan's face was a little haggard, and there were bloodshot eyeballs in his eyeballs, and seeing that Zhou Yu was in some spirits, he smiled reluctantly: "Come and take a seat." ”
"Thank you, lord!" After Zhou Yu bowed, he sat down, looked at Sun Quan suspiciously, and said: "Lord, Zijing has already told me about the Huiji, can Cao Ang's department rush to the aid of Huiji, and the enemy army is coming from afar?" Grain and grass must be insufficient? With the ability of the son to cultivate, the Ming army can be expelled from the meeting! ”
Sun Quan shook his head: "It's not just that?" Is this a letter that seems to have been sent by someone from Heqi? Five days ago, the Ming army sailors entered the river? In less than half a day, Qu'a was defeated, and Quancong was defeated? Only brought more than 1,000 troops to fight their way out of the encirclement? The enemy's naval division Lianke Shuzhai has now attacked Jianye, this is the news five days ago, how is the war in Jianye now? Nobody knows. ”
Zhou Yu only felt that his brain was blank in an instant? I thought that Chen Mo's attack on the navy this time must be extraordinary, but I didn't expect it to be so swift, the Ming army's naval division attacked Jianye, it was not just as simple as the opponent's naval division, all the ferries along the river were uprooted, and He Qi and Quan Cong's army stuck to Jianye? The soldiers and horses that have been hoarded in Jiujiang can easily cross the river and attack Danyang, so that? Wu County, Danyang, and Huiji counties may not be guaranteed, no? Now that Huiji is sure that it is no longer guaranteed, Wu Jun and Danyang are now also in war? What if these three counties are lost? Jiangdong's 20 years of accumulation will be destroyed in one fell swoop.
Zhou Yu is trying to calm himself down? The most important thing at the moment is not this, the most important thing is that they can't allocate too many troops to rescue Jianye.
Chen Mo's army is still eyeing here, once Zhou Yu chooses to retreat to Jianye to rescue, then Chen Mo's side is afraid that he will have to cross the river immediately, I don't know how many soldiers and horses there are, but Chen Mo's side, conservative estimates...... One hundred and fifty thousand!
What will happen once these armies are allowed to cross the river? The four counties of Jingnan plus Yuzhang County may not be able to be saved.
At that time, Jiangdong faced the two-sided attack of the army of the soldier Chen Mo.
It's a desperate situation!
Zhou Yu looked at the people around him, but except for a few people, everyone else was sitting with the old gods, and most of them were actually not worried about such a result, because even if Jiangdong was really defeated, they would still be fine.
But the huge foundation laid by Sun Ce is now complete.
Zhou Yu tried to calm himself down, and after a long time, he looked at Sun Quan and said: "Lord, Chen Mo has probably also received the news over there, he can't let our army come back, or it can also be said that he will look forward to our army's return to help, but as soon as our army leaves, the four counties of Jingnan and Yuzhang will all return to Chen Mo, and our army will finally keep Danyang and Wu County, and there are only two counties left, and when Chen Mo comes next time, our army will no longer be able to compete with it!" ”
Sun Quan nodded silently, before Chen Mo couldn't cross the river, and the advantage of troops couldn't be brought into play, but now that Chen Mo has crossed the river, after losing the Yangtze River moat, Chen Mo's strength advantage can completely crush Jiangdong.
"Gong Jin thinks, what should I do now?" Sun Quan asked.
"Divide 20,000 sailors, commanded by Cheng Pu and Han Dang, two old generals, quickly return to aid Jianye, Cao Ang led the army to rush to aid Jianye by land, and the two phases are attacked, and the construction industry must be guaranteed, as for Chen Mo's side, the last general will lead the rest of the navy to take the initiative to attack, even if he can't destroy the Jingzhou navy, he will destroy most of his warships, so that he is unable to cross the river!" Zhou Yu thought for a moment and said categorically.
"Do you have any objections?" Sun Quan looked at everyone in the hall.
Zhang Zhao closed his eyes and said nothing, as if this matter had nothing to do with him, Yu Chuan hesitated for a moment, and said: "Zhugong, now Shu has been obtained by the King of Ming, the world has been returned to the King of Ming except for my Jiangdong, and the trend of unification has appeared, why do I Jiangdong have to compete with it, according to the views of the ministers, now surrendered, the princes may still be able to be marquis, Bo is rich, but if you resist to the end, I am afraid that the day Jiangdong is destroyed, it will be the lord ......"
"Shut up!" On the side, Han Dang got up angrily, and the halberd pointed at Yu and said: "Useless Confucian, the thief Chen has a grudge against the lord to kill his father, and the death of the general back then may not have nothing to do with him, but now he wants to take refuge in him, wait for these rotten Confucians, read poetry and books all their lives, is it just to persuade the lord to surrender!?" ”
Yu turned his face dark, and said angrily: "Fighting on the battlefield, each for his own master, how can he bring personal grudges?" We are not persuading the lord to surrender, but now that there is a little opportunity, we do not want to be the minister of the dead country, but General Han has ever thought that in the current situation, my Jiangdong has lost the barrier, with the Ming army, even if it is finally victorious, it is difficult to protect the territory, and in a few years, when the Ming army comes again, how will our army respond? Really when Jiangdong was defeated, did the general think about whether the lord should bend his knees and surrender, or should he take the Sun family to the end!? ”
"Enough!" Sun Quan slapped the table and said with a dark face: "Let's act according to Gongjin's policy, as for the surrender, don't mention it again!" ”
After speaking, he ignored everyone's expressions, got up and brushed his sleeves away.
Many people sighed, got up and left, Han Dang and Cheng Pu said goodbye to Zhou Yu, each led the water army, went down the river, and went straight to Jianye, Cao Ang also took the Cao general to lead the army to Jianye, and Zhou Yu took the rest of the water army on the hour, took the initiative to attack, and looked for the decisive battle of the Jingxiang water division.
……
"Is this a hurry?" In Xiakou Water Village, Chen Mo received the battle report, looked at Xun You and smiled.
"The meeting has been ordered, Jiujiang guards Bai Bi and Han Kai have also led the army to cross the river, and now most of Wu County has been broken, and on the battlefield of the three counties, there are 170,000 troops, if you are not in a hurry, it is strange!"
Chen Mo nodded, Jiangdong had fallen into a desperate situation so far.
"Report~" Just as the two were talking, a general hurried in.
"What?" Chen Mo asked.
"Your Majesty, a secret report came from Jiangdong that Zhou Yu's naval division divided 20,000 troops to rescue Jianye, and at the same time, Cao Ang personally led the army to rescue Jianye." The general bowed.
Jianye?
Chen Mo smiled when he heard this, his goal was not Jianye from the beginning, and he nodded: "I know, someone will send this letter to Jianye, and let Yu Sheng quickly send an order to Zang Ba, and order Zang Ba's army to take Chaisang directly." ”
"Whoa!" The general agreed, bowed down to take the letter, and then turned around and walked away quickly.
"Congratulations to the king, clearing the universe is only in this dynasty!" Xun You smiled.
That's right, Zang Ba's purpose in joining Huiji is not to occupy Huiji County, the real goal is Chaisang.
Although Liu Ji is important, he is just like the Son of Heaven in Chang'an, just a symbol, look at what else Liu Neng can do after being moved to Chang'an? Nothing can be done.
Liu Ji is the same, it's just that Sun Quan proves that his identity and status are legitimate, and he doesn't have to be subject to Chen Mo's banner, but Liu Ji's role in Jiangdong is not even as good as Liu Neng's role when he was in Luoyang, and when Liu Neng was in Luoyang, at least there were many people standing by Liu Neng's side, but Jiangdong was vast and sparsely populated, even if it was not a troubled time, it was also a high emperor here, and the sense of belonging to the Han Dynasty was not as strong as that of the Central Plains, so Liu Ji's influence here was not as good as Liu Neng's in Luoyang.
Even if Chen Mo takes Jianye and captures Liu Ji, he will not be able to completely control Jiangdong, but if the soldiers surround Chaisang and surround Sun Quan, then Jiangdong will be completely finished.
Sun Quan obviously only saw the threat of Jianye's loss, but he didn't think that in this way, the protection around him would become quite weak, and Zang Hong, who he didn't care about, became the killer of this war!
"For the last moment, don't talk about victory or defeat lightly, sometimes the more this time, the more vigilant you are." Chen Mo shook his head, now it seems that the overall situation has been decided, but it is not impossible to turn the tables, if Zhou Yu can gain insight in time and block Zang Ba, then this trick will be invalid, but Chen Mo can also take the opportunity to cross the river.
"Your Majesty, you said that Sun Quan would surrender at that time?" Xun You asked with a smile.
"If it's Sun Ce or Sun Jian, never." Chen Mo smiled: "But Sun Quan ...... This person is quite strategic, far-sighted and skillful, but after all, he is not the owner of entrepreneurship, and if the defeat is decided, as long as he is given enough decency, he will surrender. ”
This is also the biggest difference between the king of entrepreneurship and the king of success.
Xun You nodded and said, "Then the Jingzhou Navy ......"
"As usual, don't make Zhou Yu suspicious." Chen Mo smiled.
"I understand."
