Chapter 44: The Race Against Time

After Pang Tong, Yang Zaixing, Wei Yan and others got the news that Jiangdong's soldiers and horses were attacking in a big way, they all hurried to the county guard mansion to participate in the deliberations.

After everyone arrived, Yang Zaixing stepped forward first and said: "Lord, Zhou Yu deceived me too much, and the previous conspiracy was just a matter of conspiracies, but now he dares to lead the troops to invade the territory, which is too indiscriminate for us!" ”

"Please give the order of the lord, the last general is willing to go to meet Zhou Yu as the vanguard!"

The generals also bowed their hands one after another, and said: "Please give an order from the lord, we will defeat Zhou Yu to recapture Linhu Lake!" ”

Yuan Yao saw that the generals had asked for battle without fear, and suddenly there was a lot of pride in his heart, and he laughed a few times, and said, "Hahahaha, okay!" The soldiers are not afraid of death, they will not be afraid of war, they will have to help each other, why be afraid of Zhou Yu! Shi Yuan, Zhou Yu led the army to invade the border on a large scale, what do you think of this matter? ”

Pang Tong first bowed to Yuan Yao, then got up and arched his hand to the generals, and said: "My lord, generals, the minister thinks that sooner or later my Shouchun will have to fight with Jiangdong, but it is by no means now, this is not the best time to win a decisive battle with Jiangdong." ”

"After several years of development, Jiangdong's power is now close to its peak, even if Jiangdong can expand its power again, but it is difficult for it to have a breakthrough development in a short period of time."

"On the other hand, my Shouchun is different, my Shouchun has only just risen for less than two months, and my army has just experienced a big war, tens of thousands of prisoners have been captured, and countless captures have been captured, and even these victories have not been fully digested and converted into strength, if the war starts again at this time, what good will it do to my Shouchun?"

"The minister thinks that this is a good time for my Shouchun to develop and rise, as long as my Shouchun can digest all the gains of this war and convert them into strength, the lord can really have the capital to dominate the party and not be afraid of all enemies, this matter is my Shouchun's current first priority!"

"The battle for world domination should focus on real profit rather than fame! Zhou Yu's purpose of raising troops to capture Linhu was nothing more than to coerce my Shouchun soldiers and horses not to move without permission, so as to promote the prestige of the Jiangdong army. As long as the lord ignores it, when Sun Ce's military order arrives, he will naturally lead the army to retreat. ”

"Moreover, the lord has ordered General Li to lead the iron cavalry to seize Chaisang in the starry night, and our army has been mobilized, which is tantamount to giving Zhou Yu a slap in the face, and it can be said that all his efforts have made a wedding dress for the lord; Since the lord has already gained real benefits, now that this name is in vain, why should the lord bother with him? ”

"Fighting for hegemony in the world should focus on strength rather than fame, Shi Yuan said it well!"

Yuan Yao first opened his mouth to praise Pang Tongyi, and then continued: "Yes, since my Shouchun has already gained real benefits, why should I care about this false name, this time I am fascinated." The order went down, and the scouts were doubled to find out the news of the Jiangdong soldiers and horses, and if there was any change in the Jiangdong soldiers and horses, they would immediately come to report it; The army guards the city and does not give any chance to the soldiers and horses of Jiangdong! ”

"Humph! This time, my army is guarding the city and not moving, I want to see what other intrigues and tricks he Zhou Yu has! ”

"By the way, go to Chaisang as soon as possible to give an order, let Li Siye defend carefully after seizing Chaisang, if any soldiers and horses come to attack, don't have to show mercy!"

"No, I'll take the order!"

。。。。。。

Yangzhou, Yuzhang County, Chaisang City.

The land of Chaisang is connected to Jingzhou in the west, Jiangdong in the east, Huainan in the south, and Yuzhang in the north, which can be said to be the key point in the south.

Chaisang City is located at the confluence of Pengze and the Yangtze River, is the node of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, as long as Chaisang is occupied, the Yangtze River waterway can be cut off, and the Jiangdong Navy will be trapped in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River; Chaisang City is adjacent to Jingzhou, and it only takes half a day to reach Jiangxia County from Chaisang upstream, which can be said to be the best advance base for attacking Jingzhou in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River;

Chaisang sits on the broken river and looks at Jingzhou, which is a battleground for soldiers along the Yangtze River!

It is precisely because this is a place where soldiers must fight, so whether it is Yuan Yao, Pang Tong, or Zhou Yu and others, they all gathered their eyes here when this war was just over!

Now that most of the soldiers and horses of the Liu clan who occupy Chaisang City have been wiped out in Lujiang, this is the best time to seize Chaisang!

……

"General, there is Chaisan thirty miles ahead, do you want the army to rest and then continue to march!"

After Li Siye led his iron cavalry to set off from Shu County, he did not stop the starry night rush, and finally arrived not far from Chaisang City in the afternoon of the next day.

The army marched rapidly for nearly a day and a night, and at this time the soldiers were already very tired, and although the horses had been rotated several times, they were also a little weak and out of breath under the long-distance rapid march.

Li Siye looked back at the tired looks of the soldiers, although he also wanted them to rest for a while, but after thinking of Yuan Yao's military orders, Li Siye immediately left these benevolences behind.

Li Siye gritted his teeth and replied: "No, those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety!" Now that Chaisang City is close at hand, how can our army rest at this time! Tell the soldiers that after seizing Chaisang City, Ben will personally ask the lord for them to take credit, and everyone will be rewarded! If we arrive one step late and are robbed of Chaisang City by Jiangdong soldiers and horses, we will not only be useless but guilty, and all the hard work of this day and night will be in vain! Chaisang City will arrive soon, let the soldiers change horses and work harder, and rest after arriving in Chaisang! ”

"No, my subordinates will go and give orders!"

"The general has an order, change horses, and keep going! After taking Chaisang, the general will personally ask the lord for credit, and everyone will be rewarded at that time! ”

……

At the same time, on the Yangtze River, the Jiangdong Navy fleet.

"Where are we now, and how long will it take to get to Chaisan!"

Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai walked out of the cabin, and Jiang Qin looked at the sergeant who was looking in front of him and asked.

The sergeant hurriedly replied: "General Hui, now that the fleet has passed through the east to the city, Peng Ze is in front, and after passing through Peng Ze, there is Chaisang, if there is no accident, you can reach Chaisang in two hours." ”

Zhou Tai smiled and said: "Big brother, now you can rest assured, Chaisang City will be here soon, Huang Zu Lao'er will definitely not get the news, this Chaisang City must be ours!" ”

Jiang Qin smiled and shook his head, but he didn't speak.

Although Jiang Qin also felt that what Zhou Tai said was good, after all, at this time, they and Jingzhou were the only ones who had the strength to come to seize Chaisang City.

Now Huang Zu didn't know the news that Huang Jie had been defeated, so the Jiangxia army closest to Chaisang in Jingzhou would not send troops, and no one else would arrive in Chaisang City faster than them.

However, Jiang Qin still felt as if he was missing something, and he always had an ominous premonition......
