On the day of Yuan Yao's defeat of Lei Bo, the land of Jiangdong, Danyang County, Wuhu, and the Jiangdong army camp.

"Rubbish, what a bunch of rubbish!"

Zhou Yu slammed the information sent by the sergeant to the ground, and reprimanded angrily: "In vain, I tried my best to help Liu Kai unite these people together and gather an army of 100,000, but I didn't expect these wastes to act according to the plan, not to mention fighting on their own, and they were still broken by Yuan Yao in such a short period of a few days, and the army of 50,000 soldiers and horses from two roads was broken!" Yuan Yao won both battles and swallowed up the weak and strong all the way, and the combat strength of the soldiers and horses under his command was not only not lost, but became stronger and stronger, if he was allowed to develop like this, he would definitely become the enemy of my Jiangdong in the future! Rubbish, what a bunch of rubbish! ”

Lu Meng stepped forward and bowed, and said: "General (Zhou Yu's official position at this time is the Central Protector Army), those soldiers and horses under Yuan Yao's command are just a rabble, as long as my army advances westward, we will definitely be able to conquer these two counties in one fell swoop!" ”

Zhou Yu shook his head and said: "The lord is bright and heroic, and now the lord has just accepted the jade seal of the country presented by Yuan Yaojin, and now he will definitely not allow us to enter the army for no reason; And even if our army advances westward, it can only take Lujiang County and not attack Jiujiang County, Cao Cao is now leading his soldiers and horses to confront Yuan Shao's hundreds of thousands of troops, he will definitely not allow turmoil in the rear now, if our army captures Jiujiang County, it will definitely cause Cao Cao's fear and counterattack. ”

"Moreover, if Cao Cao wins this battle in the north, we can still protect ourselves; If Yuan Shao wins, I'm afraid we will all become captives of the Yuan family. At this time, my Jiangdong must not have a conflict with Cao Cao, and now the situation affects the whole body, and my Jiangdong army must not be moved lightly, and the division must be famous! Sent a message to Liu Kai, asking him to do everything possible to quickly go north and join forces with Jiangxia soldiers and horses to besiege Shu County, even if this battle cannot capture Shu County, it will definitely give me Yuan Yao's army a heavy blow, otherwise he will not have to think about this position of Lujiang Taishou! ”

"No, the last general will send someone to deliver the news to Liu Kai."

"Command all the armies, pull out the camp and march to the spring valley."

。。。。。。

Yangzhou, Lujiang and Jiujiang are on the border of the two armies, and Yuan Yao's camp in Chaohu.

Yuan Yao's army marched directly through Hefei to the border of the two counties, and Yuan Yao's army became not in a hurry after arriving here, Yuan Yao ordered the army to camp on the side of Chaohu Lake, and sent several sentry horses to investigate the military situation of Jiangdong soldiers and horses and Lujiang County.

After all, the situation in Lujiang County is much more serious than that in Jiujiang County, not only is the Jiangdong soldiers led by Zhou Yu sloppy on the side, but these soldiers and horses who invaded Lujiang County are not rootless trees like Zheng Baolei Bo can be compared, they occupy the waterway and can advance or retreat, and even bring in reinforcements at any time.

These soldiers and horses under Yuan Yao's command are his only reliance, and he does not dare to rush into the army until he can't figure out the situation in Lujiang County, otherwise if there is a mistake, it will be too late to regret it!

Anyway, he is now camping with his back to Chaohu Lake, with Zhang Dingbian's naval army on the side, and it is extremely safe, and there is Zhang Xutuo in Shuxian County, and he will not encounter real danger for a while, so he is really not in a hurry at this time.

Two days later, military information from all over the country came one after another.

Zhou Yu's Jiangdong soldiers and horses moved from Wuhu to Chungu, and the Jiangdong naval army patrolled the Yangtze River day and night to cut off the waterway from Chaohu to the Yangtze River, and Zhang Dingbian's naval army was completely useless in this battle.

Liu Kai and Liu Zongshuai's soldiers and horses have gone north to Juchao and Jiangxia soldiers and horses to join forces, after the tripartite army has sent a total of 45,000 coalition troops, and now it has been stationed in Tongxiang and approached Shu County; However, the enemy coalition army was also very strange, and the army stopped after entering Tongxiang, and did not rush to besiege Shu County, as if waiting for the arrival of Yuan Yao's army.

……

Yuan Yao looked at the information in his hand, his face turned blue with anger, and said, "Zhou Yu'er is really too deceitful!" Before, he led the army in Wuhu to coerce our army, so that Zhang Taishou's army could not quell the chaos in time, but now he dares to use the water army to cut off the Chaohu Lake waterway, which is really infuriating! ”

Pang Tong saw that Yuan Yao was angry, and stepped forward to persuade: "The lord must not be angry, the lord must not be angry and raise troops, the Jiangdong naval army is an elite division that has been in battle for a long time, and it is by no means comparable to the naval army that our department has just formed, if our naval army rushes into the army, it will be difficult to win, and this will also give Zhou Yu an excuse to intervene in the Lujiang war, the lord must not fall for Zhou Yu's treacherous scheme!" ”

What's more, Zhou Yu has been working against him, but he can't help him, it's really embarrassing!

Yuan Yao slapped the silk book in his hand on the table with a 'snap', and shouted angrily: "Traitor child! One day I will slay it to snow my shame today! ”

Yuan Yao took a few deep breaths, then picked up the military situation of the Liu clan's Jiangxia coalition army, and said: "The enemy coalition army will no longer move when it enters Tongxiang, what does Shi Yuan think?" ”

Pang Tong also frowned for a while, stared at the map next to him for a while, and said: "Shu County has 10,000 soldiers and horses guarded by Zhang Taishou, if you add the reinforcements of the lord, the strength of the two armies after the combination of troops will be basically the same as the number of enemy coalition forces, they should not know this." ”

"Logically speaking, since they have joined forces to go north, they should rush to attack Shu County, if they capture Shu County, they can take all Lujiang County, and the lord will have no place to settle down and can only return to Hefei for long-term planning; But if the lord's army is allowed to enter Shu County, it will be difficult for them to capture Shu County again; Judging from these two points, even if it is difficult for them to capture Shu County, they should lead the army to test it, and it is really suspicious to stop in Tongxiang like this. ”

When Pang Tong said this, as if he had suddenly thought of something, his eyes paused slightly on the map, and he said with a sneer: "Unless they have a way to make the lord's army unable to enter Shu County, as long as they defeat or repel the lord's army, Shu County will definitely become a lonely city, and the defenders will inevitably be demoralized and unstable, and at that time, this Lujiang County will also be the fat in their mouths!" ”

Yuan Yao was also moved in his heart and said, "Oh? Shi Yuan, what did you think of? ”

Pang Tong stepped forward and pointed to a place on the map, and said: "Lord, look, this is the intersection of Longshushui and Nanxi, where the river is spacious and the water flow is gentle, there are wharves and roads on both banks, and there are a large number of iron horses and baggage vehicles in the main army, and the army can only cross the river from here to Shu County." The reeds are thick with reeds and the jungle is thick, and if the enemy sets up an ambush here and crosses the river while our army crosses the river, our army will surely suffer heavy losses! The lord can send elite scouts to investigate here and see if there are any enemy ambushes here! ”

Yuan Yao also relieved his taste at this time, snorted coldly, and said, "Hmph! Ben will defeat the enemy army with ambushes several times, do these thieves still want to set up ambushes to ambush me Yuan Yao? Wen Chang, you are cautious, you will personally lead a few scouts to investigate here, if there is really an enemy army in ambush, do not startle the snake! ”
