The big and small Qiao who are in the upper echelons are so worried, and the ordinary people in Jiangdong are even more worried. Most of them were divided into two parts, one was worried that Jiangdong and Liu Cong would start a war and disaster for them, so they began to prepare to go to the north to avoid trouble. There are also some people who are reluctant to live in the era because of their big family and big business, and they sprinkle their grievances on Sun Quan, it is this ignorant boy who wants to be the king and bring this unwarranted disaster to Jiangdong!

Of course, Jiangdong is definitely not worried about these ordinary people, after all, they are just worried about the war, as long as the dust of war settles, no matter who rules Jiangdong, they will pay taxes according to the rules. Bad luck is to have some crops and houses destroyed. Even big and small Qiao, if Jiangdong fails, they may be in front of them to be distributed to meritorious generals as trophies.

But the fate of Sun Quan, Sun Shao and others is difficult to say, maybe they were killed on the spot, maybe it was time to wipe out the Nine Clans! Of course, Sun Quan didn't want to be wiped out by the Nine Clans! So Lu Su asked for help vigorously, and he didn't dare to slack off at all. Not a short time urged Cheng Pu to rush to the front line to rescue. There are only 5,000 people left to confront Zhang Liao!

At the same time, the ministers were summoned to start a large-scale recruitment of new soldiers in Wu County in case of contingencies! Just as Da Qiao was worried, Sun Quan also knew that during this period of time, Jiangdong was not peaceful, and various rumors often circulated, plus his brother Sun Ce used a lot of means when he occupied Jiangdong back then, and now he really has to guard against local chaos.

In particular, Xu Ming mentioned by Liu Cong in the book gave Sun Quan a headache, this person and his Sun family are bitter and bitter! If this person arrives in Jiangdong, it will not be easy to do. As soon as Cheng Pu left, the northern line was empty. Sun Quan had no choice but to send an envoy to Xuchang to prepare a generous gift according to Gu Yong's suggestion, wanting to befriend Cao Cao.

Sun Quan's plan was that even if he couldn't say that Cao Cao would send troops south to invade Jingzhou, he would let Cao Cao not take advantage of the situation to enter Jiangdong! However, Sun Quan was obviously a little worried. Cao Cao's army of more than 100,000 has been fighting in the barren land in order to clear out Ma Chao and Han Sui in Liangzhou. This time, Liangzhou is newly determined, and it still needs to be strengthened. In addition, Cao Cao had already fallen in love with Hanzhong, and this time Liu Cong went eastward to take Hanzhong! It can be regarded as an invisible tacit understanding.

When Sun Quan was thinking about it, someone hurriedly came to report, and Sun Quan saw that Zhu Ran and Pan Zhang hurried over as if their buttocks were burning, and the former was still holding a silk book in his hand.

"What's so alarming?" Sun Quan looked at the two companions who had followed him since childhood, and it was also a little strange that they were in such a hurry. Pan Zhang's resignation, Zhu Ran has never been such a reckless person.

"My lord, the governor of the capital has sent a letter, saying that the Jingzhou naval army is extremely brave and numerous. If no reinforcements arrive in the near future, I'm afraid that my 30,000 recruits in Chaisang won't be able to resist for half a month! Zhu Ran said with a pale face, and then handed the silk book in his hand to Sun Quan.

"Half a month?" Sun Quan knew that the front-line commanders sometimes said that things were very serious in order to get reinforcements as soon as possible, but this Lu Su said it too seriously, Chaisang is the gateway to Jiangdong, and the fortifications are the strongest of all the naval camps, which can't last for half a month? That is to say, even if Cheng Pu's reinforcements arrive, it will hold out for a month at most?

Once Chaisang is lost, of course Sun Quan knows what it means!

"Quickly convene the hall of the people!" Sun Quan dropped this sentence and hurriedly took the first step, leaving Pan Zhang and Zhu Ran, who were sweating profusely, busy gathering a group of civil and military personnel.

"Can't hold on for half a month? Zijing is too long, and the enemy is majestic! Even if there is no water army, according to the solidity of the Chaisang city, Liu Cong will not be able to enter it for half a month, right? Lord...... Didn't Zijing start at the end of the letter, has he roughly found out the strength of Jingzhou's Eastern Crusade? The total number of naval troops is only 80,000 to 100,000, and the land infantry is only 30,000, and these forces are completely not enough to fear! ”

Zhang Zhao shook his head first when he heard this, and said with some disapproval, although he and Sun Quan had an unpleasant encounter some time ago, as soon as he heard that something was wrong, he still came to the council hall. Everyone laughed when they heard it, and the atmosphere suddenly relaxed a lot.

"The 110,000 army is like stepping on my Jiangdong, Liu Cong is too self-righteous!" As soon as Sun Quan understood the key, he also laughed. At present, Sun Quan has a total army of 120,000, of which half is the navy. Except for Sun Jing, who guarded Jiaozhou, there were 20,000 troops, and the remaining six counties of Jiangdong still had 100,000 troops. Even if Cao Cao had to gather some men and horses in order to prevent Cao Cao, there were still nearly 90,000 left, and Sun Quan was confident that with 90,000 against 110,000, defense would not be a problem at least.

"My lord, the moment is to urge General Cheng to rush to the battlefield as soon as possible. Zi Jing is also justified in this worry, after all, more than half of the Chaisang Navy Army is a new recruit! As Zhang Zhao said this, everyone's hearts became nervous again. Na Lu Su is not a timid person, he said that the Jingzhou Navy is extremely brave, then it is definitely not sensational.

Sun Quan also remembered the scene when he led his troops to attack Jiangxia. had already successfully taken Shaxian, and Huang Zu only took more than 1,000 people to prepare to flee to Xiangyang. Cheng Pu, Lü Meng, Jiang Qin and others led troops to pursue the victory. As a result, Liu Cong led the reinforcements to arrive in time, which not only saved the defeat, but also caused one of the three generals to be injured and one to be captured. Jiang Qin also took refuge in Jingzhou!

Then Liu Cong counterattacked and killed Sun Quan's 30,000 sailors to almost no armor! Many years have passed, but Sun Quan will not forget it. When describing the pursuit of Zhuge Jin and Lu Xun, Lu Su mentioned that Gan Ning's naval army made a surprise move to control Lu Su's flagship. In addition, Chaisang had many recruits, which had to worry Sun Quan. But in addition to urging Cheng Pu to hurry up and reinforce, he could only ask Lu Su to hold on!

……

Different from the panic in Jiangdong, Liu Cong led the Jingzhou Navy to the front line of Chaisang step by step. Three days after the first confrontation between Ganning and Lusu, the army was stationed on the north bank of the Yangtze River. And, accompanied by Gan Ning, he inspected the front line of the enemy camp.

"Xiaozhi, our opponent is Lu Su, what do you think?" After completing the encampment and inspecting the enemy camp, Liu Cong immediately convened a front-line military meeting.

"My lord, the terrain conditions of Chaisang are very special, and there are Qili Lake, Bali Lake and Saihu Lake in the north of the city. In the northeast, there are also Baishui Lake and South Lake. To the southeast of the city, there is a vast Poyang Lake, and most of the Chaisang naval warships are also hidden in Qili Lake, and the waterways in the county are criss-crossed.

Once, no matter whether our army is storming the Chaisang Water Village, it will inevitably fall into the encirclement of the Chaisang Water Army by dividing the troops to take the two lakes, and it will be difficult to gain a foothold. And even if our army advances steadily, it will be difficult to find the main force of the Soochow Navy for a while!

Lu Su has been in Chaisang for many years, and Zhou Yu has been running the Jiangdong Navy here. Our army may not be able to attack Chaisan for a while. And if Chaisang is attacked, Jiangdong will definitely send a naval army to support. Therefore, for the sake of today's plan, our army will try to stop the Jiangdong reinforcements who came to the rescue for a while. Then choose a weakly defended place on the south bank to break through, and then transport our army's infantry who are good at land warfare to the opposite bank, and then advance by land and water to successfully capture Chaisang......"

"Well, there is news that Cheng Pu is on the way to reinforce the naval army, and the number of people is afraid that it will not be less than 30,000, if 30,000 people are allowed to enter Chaisang, then Lu Su must be even more fearless! In your opinion, which base should you choose to concentrate? ”

"Pengze (present-day Hukou County)!" In front of the military map, the place where Fa Zheng's finger reached was the confluence of Poyang Lake and the Yangtze River, about 60 miles northeast of Chaisang.

The lord can send a part of the naval army to the east, Peng Ze's defense must be inferior to Chaisang, after capturing Peng Ze, he will set up an ambush on three sides with Sangluozhou (now Jiangzhou Town) as the center, just waiting for Cheng Pu to come. Then our army entered the estuary from Poyang Lake south of Pengze, and the river on both sides of Jiangzhou was killed at the same time. ”

"Sang Luozhou?" Liu Cong walked into the map and beckoned Gan Ning, Guan Yu and others to come and take a look. This Sangluozhou seems to be small, but it just echoes the estuary of Poyang Lake, and briefly divides the Yangtze River into two in the middle of the Yangtze River. During the flood season, most of them will be submerged in the Yangtze River, but now it is the turn of spring and summer, but most of the river surface is exposed.

The Yangtze River is in the Chaisang section, and the distance between the two banks is only three and a half to four miles wide at the longest point, and less than two miles wide at the narrow place. The mouth of Poyang Lake in Pengze County is only two miles wide. When the Yangtze River flows through the northwest of Pengze, it is divided into two by Sangluozhou. The two precipitations in the north and south pass through Sangluk Chau and then converge at Mukou.

And Sangluok Island is like a flat hat buckled on the Yangtze River, resulting in a slight arc on the northern river surface, which is buckled down on Sangluozhou like a crescent moon, and the narrowest point is less than a mile. It is the best place to set up an ambush on the river! And battles in the art of war to encircle points and send reinforcements abound! Once he can occupy Pengze to make a living, even if Cheng Pu sees through the ambush, it will be difficult to enter Chaisang for a while! Therefore, in the case of having an advantage in the number of naval forces, it is indeed a good way to capture Pengze in the northeast of Chaisan.

Moreover, Peng Ze and Chaisang are only sixty miles away, which is closer to the garrison of Liu Cong's army. If the Jiangdong reinforcements could not enter Chaisang, then Peng Ze's naval army could go south by land, or enter Poyang Lake to directly threaten Nanchang, echoing Liu Pan's infantry! Once Nanchang was captured, Chaisang was a lonely city. No matter how strong Lu Su is, it will be difficult to hold on!

Of course, this Peng Ze is located in a subsistence area, and the strategic location is so important, Lu Su must also be on guard here, and it can only be for nothing if there are fewer soldiers and warships!

"Lord, I'd rather lead my troops to capture Peng Ze!" Gan Ning looked at the map and immediately asked for it.

"Xingba, you sit down first! Chaisang is the gateway of Dongwu, and the Chaisang Navy is the soul of the Dongwu Navy, so as the governor of my Han Navy, you must be in Chaisang. Going to the front line in person is also the greatest sense of oppression for the enemy! And it is not easy for you to arouse Lu Su's vigilance and suspicion on the front line. Therefore, from tomorrow onwards, it is necessary to intensify the attack on the Soochow naval army on the south bank. ”

"As for capturing Peng Ze...... Liu Cong turned to Guan Yu and Jiang Qin: "Yun Chang is good at land warfare, and Gong Yi (Jiang Qin) once stayed in Chaisang. So this time the heavy responsibility is handed over to the two of you! ”

"The last general commands!" Guan Yu and Jiang Qin responded in unison.

"Yun Chang, this water battle is dominated by you, and Gong Yi will assist you. But for the specific details, you still have to listen to the opinions of the public Yi. Benxiang gave you 30,000 sailors, and it would be best if you could completely annihilate Cheng Pu's reinforcements. If not, it must be blocked, and it must not be allowed to cross the subsistence into Poyang Lake, nor can it cross Sangluzhou into our army's camp! ”

"Yes!"
