Wu Jing's staff is none other than Zhuge Jin, who chose to avoid Jiangdong because of the war in the Central Plains!!

After Zhuge Jin crossed the river, he came to Danyang City, but he didn't expect that the war in the Central Plains had not subsided, and war broke out in Jiangdong. The war between Jiangdong and Jianghuai continued, and Zhuge Jin could not continue to study, so he stayed in Danyang City. After Zhuge Jin crossed the river, Wu Jing of Danyang had helped him many times, and now that the war in Danyang was tight, Zhuge Jin stayed in Wu Jing's mansion to act as a staff member for Wu Jing.

Wu Jing admired Zhuge Jin's talent and learning very much, and often asked Zhuge Jin's opinion after encountering something.

At this time, Zhuge Jin's words had already analyzed the situation in Danyang City to Wu Jing clearly, Wu Jing hesitated for a long time, and finally made a final decision!

"The first strategy is too dangerous and undesirable, and the third strategy is too conservative, Wu Mou, as a Danyang Taishou, how can he retreat without a fight and bear the infamy! Moreover, even if my Danyang soldiers and horses retreat to the Dantu, whether they can protect the land of Wu County in the end must still be established under Cao Cao's thoughts, this strategy is too passive, and a certain would rather fight to the death! ”

"Let's act according to the second policy, send the order down, let the troops gather troops and horses, and after an hour, the army will send troops to Xuancheng!!"

Zhuge Jin bowed down and promised: "No, my subordinates will go to the arraignment!" ”

"Wait a minute!"

Wu Jing hesitated for a moment, then stopped Zhuge Jin and said, "You don't have to go out with me in this battle, I will leave you three hundred soldiers and horses, and you will sit in Danyang City on my behalf." ”

Zhuge Jin was deeply favored by Wu Jing's acquaintance, and naturally he was not a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death, so he replied urgently: "Ming Gong, this matter ......."

Wu Jing waved his hand to interrupt Zhuge Jin's words, and said: "Needless to say, you are just a scribe, not a general who commands the army, the key to this battle is whether our army can reach the Xuancheng area smoothly, if there is no ambush along the way, our army will undoubtedly win this battle, and there is no shortage of you; ”

"Li Siye is the first general under Yuan Yao, and the Tiger Army led by him is also the first combat force under Yuan Yao in addition to the pro-guard army, and my Danyang County soldiers are much inferior to it, if Li Siye really sets up an ambush here, then my army will be defeated, and you alone will be powerless to return to the sky!"

"You stay in the city and wait for news, if my army wins this battle, it is naturally the best, if my army is defeated, you will open the city and surrender, I only hope you can protect the !!people of Danyang City."

"You have repeatedly advised me, you have helped me a lot, and you no longer owe me affection, so arrange this matter!"

After Zhuge Jin listened to Wu Jing's words, he could only sigh and bowed down in response: "No, Jin received the order, and I only hope that Ming Gong Wuyun will return triumphantly!! ”

Wu Jing didn't reply again, just closed his eyes and waved his hand, Zhuge Jin saw this, so he retreated and went to convey Wu Jing's military order.

In the front hall, Wu Jing's figure looked very gloomy under the illumination of the lights.

……

An hour later, 10,000 Danyang soldiers and horses were quickly assembled, and Wu Jing left 300 soldiers and horses for Zhuge Jin to defend the city, and he personally led the army out of the city and went straight to the direction of Xuancheng County.

After Wu Jing was reminded by Zhuge Jin, he was also very worried about whether he would encounter an ambush by Li Siye's troops, so he was extra careful when marching, and the Danyang soldiers and horses only marched twenty miles in the middle of the night, but fortunately, they did not encounter ambushes along the way, and Wu Jing's courage was a little bigger.

After dawn, Wu Jing sent scouts again, and the scouts among the generals were directly placed twenty miles away, and the scouts were invincible all the way to investigate, and the marching speed of Danyang's soldiers and horses was a little faster.

Danyang soldiers and horses rushed all the way, and finally arrived at the Lishui River in the afternoon, the Lishui waterway is more than ten zhang wide, the water flow is extremely fast, the army can not swim across, can only cross the river from a wooden bridge in turn.

The two sides of the Lishui River were the best places for the ambush soldiers to cross the river halfway, and Wu Jing naturally did not dare to be careless, until the scouts explored the places within a radius of twenty miles on both sides of the bridge, and found no enemy situation at all, so Wu Jing ordered the army to start crossing the river.

Half an hour later, the Danyang soldiers and horses finally crossed the Lishui, Wu Jing saw that there was no ambush to kill, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, this place has reached the south bank of Lishui, but there are still more than fifty miles away from Xuancheng County, this is already the best ambush place for the enemy, and there is no enemy army yet, it seems that Li Siye should not have ambushed troops here.

Wu Jing was overjoyed in his heart, and after ordering the sergeant to eat and rest a little, he continued to move forward, and the Danyang soldiers and horses marched for more than 20 miles, and came to a small river again.

This small river was no more than a tributary of Lishui, no more than three zhang wide, and the water was only knee-deep enough for an adult man, and the army could swim directly across the river. Although Wu Jing was proud in his heart, he still kept some thoughts, and after finding the place to cross the river, he did not rush to order the army to cross the river, but still let the scouts go to find out if there were any ambushes ahead.

However, although Wu Jing still has a cautious intention in his heart, the scouts of the Danyang Army don't think so, since he sent out the troops last night, Wu Jing has summoned the scouts of Danyang City to the same as a special dog, and let them search for the enemy army everywhere, often over and over again.

It would be fine if the enemy army could be found, but under the hardships of the Danyang army scouts, let alone the enemy army, not even a single bandit was found!!

When crossing Lishui before, Wu Jing was worried that there would be an enemy ambush and attack Danyang soldiers and horses across the river and attack it halfway, so the scouts in the army cut both sides of the Lishui on both sides, and now it is just to cross a small river ditch, Wu Jing came to this set again, or let the scouts go to explore the road, and the scouts in the army were naturally a little unhappy.

If there is really an enemy ambush here, then it is impossible for them not to choose to ambush on both sides of the more dangerous Lishui, but choose to ambush next to this small river ditch!

The scouts of the Danyang army all had this idea, they did not listen to Wu Jing's words at all, nor did they fully implement Wu Jing's military order to thoroughly investigate the land on both sides of the ferry, the scouts in the army just shook around, looked at some places they thought might be ambushed by the enemy army a few times, and then found a place to rest for a while and then returned to the army, and then reported to Wu Jing that they had thoroughly investigated both sides of the ferry and found no trace of the enemy!!!

Wu Jing's thoughts were similar to those of the scout, the reason why he asked the scout to go to explore the single road again was just out of prudence, after hearing the scout's return, Wu Jing did not have the slightest suspicion, and did not hesitate to issue a military order for the army to swim across the river!!
