Chapter 485: Military Discussion

Sun Ce sat in the big tent of the Chinese army and listened to Zhu Jun's deployment of the war. Pang Tong sat behind him, writing down the main points of Zhu Jun in a hurry, so that he could go back and study again.

Gong Du and Sun Ce sat at the same table. He is the deputy general of Sun Ce's department, and he has 5,000 men and horses composed of the elite of the Runan Yellow Turbans under his command, and his combat effectiveness cannot be compared with Sun Ce's personal guard cavalry, but it is much stronger than other departments. Last time, he robbed Cao Bao and Xu Wei's camp, and became famous in a war, and now wherever he goes, people have to call him a general, and no one dares to treat him as a rogue anymore. He knew that these were all given by Sun Ce, so he obeyed Sun Ce's words, and he didn't even have any opinion on Sun Ce's adjustment of the captains and Simas of each battalion.

This attack on Junyi City was in response to the Black Mountain Army, and he brokered it, if this battle can be successful, he can also be regarded as a contribution to the Yellow Turban.

Gong Du was not interested in what Zhu Jun was saying, he looked at Sun Ce from time to time from the corner of his eye, and found that Sun Ce's face was not very good, and he couldn't see a little smile, so he couldn't help but feel a little strange, and he wanted to ask but was embarrassed to speak, so he had to endure it.

Zhu Jun also noticed, and after Wang Chang finished introducing the situation, he first turned his head to look at Chen Wang and Liu Chong. "Your Majesty, do you think that's good?"

King Chen stroked his beard and groaned, "Think again, think again." ”

Zhu Jun nodded and turned to Sun Ce. "Bo Fu, if you have any ideas, it doesn't hurt to say it directly."

The generals turned their gazes. Zhu Jun was a strict person, and on such occasions, he rarely called someone so closely, and generally called him by his official position or by his first name. However, no one dares to have an opinion, the father and son of the Sun family are both generals that Zhu Jun relies on, and their relationship is by no means comparable to ordinary people. In the next few months, all of them had to rely on Yuzhou's money and food supply, and no one wanted to offend Sun Ce.

Sun Ce bowed slightly, saying that he didn't dare, but he was very uneasy in his heart.

Junyi is not an ordinary county seat. In the past, it was called Daliang and was the capital of the Wei State. In the future, it will be called Kaifeng and will be the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty. At any time, this is a battleground for soldiers. Zhu Jun wanted to fight for Junyi to control the east, and Yuan Tan didn't want to fight for Junyi. Zhu Jun was attacked by him in a roundabout way and threw away unrealistic thoughts, but Yuan Tan didn't know that he would definitely go all out to fight for Junyi, and might even ask Yuan Shao to send someone to support.

It is very dangerous to limit your eyes to the surroundings of Junyi City. From Junyi to the north, less than two hundred miles is the big river, Yuan Shao's main force is on the other side of the river in Hanoi County, not long ago, he repelled Dong Yue in the Huai County area, where is he now? Could he have crossed the river and entered Henan County or Dong County? Even if he doesn't come in person, it's easy to send people to support Yuan Tan, there are heavy troops stationed in Liyang, and he can cross the big river at any time and go south along the line of Baima and Yanjin, but it is only about three hundred miles, and the road is smooth, and the normal march takes ten days, and the rapid march can be reached in two or three days.

However, Zhu Jun's scouts only arranged for thirty miles, and they did not even leave the border of Junyi County. Even if Yuan Shao's reinforcements were in Fengqiu, he didn't know.

This old man is still continuing the habitual thinking of fighting against the Liukou, and he does not realize that his current opponent is no longer a rebellion or a yellow turban in various places, but a regular army controlled by Yuan Shao and his son, who are well versed in military affairs, and there is a large number of scholars behind him. Why was the Shi clan able to share the world with the Sima clan later? It's not because they have a monopoly on the inheritance of knowledge, whether it is literature or martial arts, they are by no means comparable to illiterate people who can't read big characters, and without them, Sima Shi can't play at all.

It can be said that the army led by the Yuan father and son is the most regular army except for the border army, and it is not the same thing at all as those ordinary people who dare to rebel and claim the emperor by inciting a few thousand people.

"Duke Zhu, where are the various units under Yuan Tan's command, and what troops may participate in the battle, do we all know what?"

Zhu Jun stroked his beard, his eyes puzzled. "Didn't Wang Chang say it just now, didn't you hear clearly? Wang Lingshi, you can explain it to the rebellious general again. ”

Sun Ce arched his hand. "I can hear everything Wang Lingshi said clearly, but I still have some doubts. Where are the Dongjun people led by Liu Bei now? ”

Wang Chang said: "He left Chenliu and went east. ”

"How far to the east, and where is it now? In Jiyin, or in Dongjun? ”

Wang Chang was a little unhappy. "Sun is rebellious, I can't comment on this question. The news we got was that Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian attacked Taishan County, and Liu Beidong should have rushed to aid Mount Tai, as for which way to go, we have no way of knowing. ”

"Okay, let me ask directly, as far as the Taiwei Mansion knows, what is the exact location of Liu Bei's last place, and when?"

Wang Chang's face was gloomy. "Three days ago, Fengqiu County."

"In other words, we don't know if he is in Fengqiu now, or has he already gone east?"

Wang Chang didn't speak, but looked at Zhu Jun. Zhu Jun stroked his beard and said in a deep voice: "Bo Fu, I understand your worries, but we lack cavalry, and the scope that scouts can explore is so large. If you continue to go deeper, the scouts will be in danger, and the message delay will be severe. It is customary to scout for thirty miles, even if Liu Bei hides in the territory of Fengqiu and rushes for thirty miles, we have enough time to react. ”

"What if it's not just Liu Bei?"

Zhu Jun's voice became louder. "Bo Fu, what do you want to say, it doesn't hurt to say it directly, you don't have to go around in circles."

Sun Ce stood up, bowed down and said: "Zhu Gong, Yanzhou is a large state with a population of more than three million, although it has suffered some military disasters in recent years, the population is still quite large, and the strength of the family has not been affected. Yuan Tan entered Yanzhou, and these people all supported Yuan Tan, and Yuan Tan could summon far more than 40,000 people. Junyi City is a place where soldiers must fight, Yuan Tan will not fight, at this time he did not recruit more troops, but transferred Liu Bei thousands of miles to aid Taishan County, which is inevitably abnormal and must be guarded against. I think that the scope of scout reconnaissance should be larger, not only in Yanzhou, but also behind us. If Yuan Shao crosses the river, it will be very bad for us. ”

Zhu Jun snorted and said in a deep voice: "It turns out that you are worried about Yuan Shao, but you are a little worried." Xingyang, Juan County, and Yuanwu, I have arranged people, no matter where Yuan Shao crosses the river, I will receive news. He paused, and then said: "What you said is not unreasonable, Yuan Tan may indeed have gathered more troops and has to be guarded." Therefore, in this battle, we must fight quickly, and after the princes receive the poison and bitter chieftains out of the city, they will immediately withdraw from the battlefield, and they must not fall in love with the war. ”

The generals agreed with a bang.

Sun Ce opened his mouth and swallowed back the unfinished words. He looked at King Chen, who was sitting on the seat with a calm face, glanced at Sun Ce, shook his head slowly, and motioned to Sun Ce to stop talking. Pang Tong behind him also tugged at the corner of his clothes and signaled him not to argue with Zhu Jun.

Sun Ce closed his mouth knowingly. Now that Zhu Jun has arranged it and accepted his opinion, it is pointless for him to insist any longer, it will only make Zhu Jun unhappy. Judging from the resources at Zhu Jun's disposal, he can also do this, and if he wants to grasp more information, he needs more manpower and material resources, which are not realistic.

There are inevitable risks in any war, and no one can know everything.
