Chapter 1288: Zhou Yu's intentions
[I'm afraid that Liu Xuande won't give us so much time to prepare, although it is difficult for us to obtain the real situation under Liu Xuande's rule, but from the decree he issued, I can feel that the gap between us is constantly widening. Zhou Yu felt a little bitter in his heart.
However, Zhou Yu will not tell Sun Ce this kind of thing, after all, even if he tells Sun Ce, Sun Ce can only add chaos, the other party's intelligence is only suitable for fighting, and it is best not to go to Sun Ce for other things, otherwise it can only be said to be adding chaos.
In fact, by now, Zhou Yu has some doubts about the source of wisdom of Chen Xi, the political strategy helmsman under Liu Bei's rule.
It's not that Zhou Yu is proud, just because Zhou Yu himself was born in a wealthy family, and he has a hobby for all kinds of classics since he was a child, and he knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and as the father of the third prince, he fully supports Zhou Yu's study, and after more than 20 years, Zhou Yu is conceited that he is definitely not weaker than others.
After all, not to mention anything else, only to talk about IQ, Zhou Yu's mind is definitely the top in the world, and Zhou Yu is born to know how to learn, and he is diligent and abnormal, it is said that even if there are amazing and brilliant people who come to the world, Zhou Yu also feels that there is no such a big gap.
The simplest way to put it is that Zhou Yu is confident that he will replace Li Ru at the beginning, and Dong Zhuo's power when the princes of the Eighteenth Road are fighting Dong will definitely not be weaker than Li Ru's power as the mastermind, but if he replaces Chen Xi, Liu Bei's power will definitely not go to this level.
This is the gap between the two sides, and it is also the simplest deduction, as long as you put yourself in the shoes of the deduction, you will find that the gap between the two sides is very large, and this is theoretically impossible.
Zhou Yu knew very well that his talent should be close to the limit of a human being, even if Chen Xi had reached the limit of a human being, it would be impossible to show such a big gap.
But the good thing is that reality is more rogue than fiction, and reality is reasonable if it happens. Therefore, Zhou Yu can only think that the limit he predicted before is not the limit, of course, this point has been denied by Zhou Yu.
Since there may only be two, one is that your own estimation is wrong, and the other is that the opponent is a god in the mortal, so why choose an option that is not in your favor, if it is a god in the mortal. Then there is actually no need to do it, victory or defeat is already doomed.
"What are you thinking?" Sun Ce shook his hand in front of Zhou Yu, who was a little distracted, and asked, attracting Zhou Yu's attention again.
"I'm thinking about how to mobilize troops, and it seems that before the Battle of Jiaozhou, we still need to lead our troops to the south bank of the Yangtze River." Zhou Yu said with a flat expression, without the slightest worry at all, as if he was really thinking about this problem before.
"The south bank of the Yangtze River?" Sun Ce raised his eyebrows, and his face was happy, "Hahaha." I personally led the troops to go, I had long wanted to deal with Guan Yu, if you hadn't pulled me, I would have gone. ”
"Not only will you lead your troops, but I will also need to follow." Zhou Yu sighed and said, "But if you want to fight Guan Yu, you still need to be careful." ”
"Rest assured, rest assured. Although he is very powerful, my Sun Ce is not a vegetarian. Just be careful, and you won't be a problem. Sun Ce proudly patted the armor on his chest and said.
"I hope so." Zhou Yu said helplessly, "Liu Xuande sent troops to Youzhou to attract Yuan Tan's energy, the purpose should be to attack the Yuan family left and right with Xianbei, and destroy the Yuan clan in the north as quickly as possible." ”
"It is not a good thing for us that Liu Bei will destroy the last enemy in the north, once there is no containment from the north. He will be able to completely free up his hands to deal with us, but the Northern Yuan Clan will be able to survive at most, so we only need to contain some of the opponent's energy. Zhou Yu explained to Sun Ce.
Sun Ce looked at Zhou Yu indifferently, he didn't care why he wanted to fight Guan Yu Guo Jia at all, he just wanted to fight the peerless master.
As for Qu's agricultural book, the authenticity of it has been verified. However, Yangzhou itself is vast and sparsely populated, and the grain is also sufficient, so there is no need to rush at this time, we will first involve some of Liu Bei's energy, and Cao Mengde's side will also intervene after the spring ploughing is stabilized. Zhou Yu looked at Sun Ce's expression and explained.
In fact, Zhou Yu did not carry out agricultural reform, but compared with the relative shortage of land in the north, there is actually no shortage of land in the south, so his enthusiasm for agricultural reform is not as strong as Cao Cao's.
What's more, Zhou Yu's arrangement is not only to allow the Yuan family in the north to continue, but also to hide his true strategic intentions.
Although Zhou Yu didn't think much of Shi Mutiny, but in the late Han Dynasty, as a state assassin history, there was basically no fuel-efficient lamp, Zhou Yu didn't believe that Shi Mutini had nothing to fear about them, and even if the other party was ready to wait for Sun Ce's invasion, Zhou Yu would not be too surprised.
Although Zhou Yu didn't know that Sun Quan wanted to enter Jiaozhou and was defeated in history, Zhou Yu was not the kind of careless person, if he wanted to take Jiaozhou, he had to quickly take Jiaozhou into his hands when others in the north did not react, it would definitely not work without some tricks.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu went north to deal with Liu Bei, and the energy of Liu Bei's side was definitely the fastest move to reassure Shi Chang, and once Shi Chang was reassured, Zhou Yu believed that Pang Tong and Jiang Qin would quickly make the battle of Jiaozhou come to fruition.
Zhou Yu didn't have anything too to worry about on Pang Tong's side, what really made Zhou Yu care was that the other side of the Yangtze River was dealing with Guan Yu under Liu Bei, Zhou Yu was very clear about one thing, that is, compared with the princes in the north, their generals were relatively scarce.
Not to mention that compared with Liu Bei, even compared with Cao Cao, Sun Ce's generals have a considerable gap, but fortunately, compared with the land war in the north, the water war in the south is the mainstream, and the water war pays more attention to command and mobilization, and the requirements for the general's own combat effectiveness are not high.
Therefore, in the south, the requirements for generals are more to better command warships and have better warships, and the number of times that they are really heads-up on the water, except for the internal qi detachment martial arts who are very confident in themselves, will leave the combat zone for heads-up, others will definitely not do it.
Of course, even if the internal qi separation body is very confident in itself, it will not fight in the combat zone, because for the big ship with its own cloud qi and enhanced warmth, and controlled by people, the internal qi separation body is also quite fragile, and once it is besieged, it will be killed.
However, for the current Jiangdong, the biggest problem is not that there are not enough internal qi detachment generals, but that there are no excellent warships.
[In this battle to the north, the real goal is not to involve Liu Bei's energy, but to complete our army! ] Zhou Yu thought silently in his heart, and his heart was slightly heavy. (To be continued.) )
PS: There is a shift in the afternoon and evening, and the shadow area in my current heart is a bit large, so I ask for a monthly pass to comfort me
