Chapter 424: Static braking

Although the Qin army did not attack immediately, it still needed to be prepared.

After settling the precautions of the defenders on the city wall.

Zhou Yu and the others left the city wall and walked back towards the city.

The Qin troops originally stationed in Jiangling have already arrived, so they also need to make certain arrangements to deal with the Qin army that is preparing to attack.

They didn't think that the Qin army would just come for a tour and leave.

Moreover, the Qin army attacked before it arrived, but it was just that there was no detailed attack plan for the time being, or there was no certain certainty.

If you were sure, maybe it wouldn't be so quiet.

Return to the mansion in the city.

Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, and Zhuge Jin also sat down in the hall of the mansion.

"The Qin army has come, and a war is inevitable, do you have any countermeasures?" As soon as Zhou Yu sat down, he spoke directly.

It's all now, and the Qin army has already arrived in front of him, so there is no need to beat around the bush anymore.

Hear the words.

Lu Su, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, and Zhuge Jin also looked at each other.

"Dudu, because he can't seize the rest of the cities in Jingzhou, there are only 50,000 soldiers in the city now, and the Qin army outside the city also has 30,000 people, not all the Qin troops in Jingzhou, if it's just like this, it's not difficult to hold Jiangxia, maybe there is a chance to fight back, but...!"

Lu Su was also the first to stand up and speak, but at the end, he didn't continue, his brows furrowed.

After listening to Lu Su's words.

Zhou Yu and the others also had a look of worry on their faces.

They all knew about what Lu Su said, and the Qin army that they saw on the city wall and the camp built in the distance outside the city was not all the Qin army in Jingzhou.

And the more than 100,000 Qin troops who were crusading against Liu Biao before were still in Jingzhou.

What appears outside the city now is only a part of the Qin army in Jingzhou, and if the Qin army wants to crusade against Jiangdong, it will not only be this Qin army outside the city, but also the Qin army that stays in Jingzhou will come.

The most important thing is that now they only have 50,000 soldiers and horses under their command.

If you want to resist the Qin army, it is still a little difficult.

But it's not without opportunities.

"What Lord Lu said is exact!" Zhuge Jin said, "Dudu, what is the combat strength of the Qin army, there is not much to say, in the face of the current situation, the Qin army will definitely not give up, and it will not be its ultimate goal to take Jiangxia, if Jiangxia is lost, it will definitely take the opportunity to enter the land of Jiangdong in one fell swoop, I think we should ask the lord for help and ask for reinforcements to come!" ”

"I'll second!"

Huang Gai and Cheng Pu glanced at each other and agreed.

They are military generals, although they are not reckless, but if they talk about advice, there is still a big gap compared to Lu Su and Zhuge Jin.

Moreover, Zhuge Jin's suggestion is not unreasonable, and asking for reinforcements is indeed a good way.

The importance of Jiangxia does not need to be said.

If the Qin army occupies Jiangxia, it will be a great threat to the land of Jiangdong.

Asking for reinforcements?

Zhou Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Even so, is the lord really willing to send reinforcements?" Don't forget that we are in a different situation now. ”

In the end, the tone was also full of helplessness.

Hear Zhou Yu's words.

Lu Su, Zhuge Jin, Cheng Pu, and Huang Gai also frowned, and did not refute Zhou Yu's words.

Because they all know what Zhou Yu is talking about.

When Qin Yin personally led the army to attack Jingzhou, they had a plan, and secretly sent people to win over the family members of Jiangxia, but they did not make any moves.

Until Huang Zu led most of the defenders to leave Jiangxia.

Only then did the action begin.

Moreover, after taking Jiangxia, he sheltered Liu Biao, and also made certain arrangements to prevent the Qin army from counterattacking and coming to seize Jiangxia.

It was only because of the changes in Chang'an that the Qin army gave up attacking Jiangxia in one fell swoop.

But even so, they still made a change, wanting to take advantage of the unstable foundation of the Qin army, and in the name of Liu Biao, to seize the rest of Jingzhou's territory, but failed.

There was no chance, so he could only retreat to Jiangxia.

Now it's been stable for a while, and it's difficult to make any more moves.

After all, when Qin Yin rushed back to Chang'an and stayed in Chang'an to arrange various things, Jia Xu and the others who stayed in Jingzhou had gradually stabilized the Jingzhou territory they had won.

Of course, it's not that they don't want to plan.

It's just that Sun Quan transferred back most of the soldiers and horses, and the soldiers and horses under their control were not enough to continue to plan, so they could only give up and retreat to Jiangxia, waiting for a certain opportunity.

But the time did not wait, but waited for the Qin army.

In this regard,.

They also feel very powerless because they have internal problems, but they just don't show it.

But there's the problem, and that's a fact that can't be changed.

Unless....

"Dudu, it's about the survival of Jiangdong, if you want to come to the main guild to make a move, it's worth a try!" Lu Su suggested.

Zhou Yu glanced at Lu Su, then nodded: "In this way, I will write a handwritten letter and send someone back to Jianye, no matter what, I still have to plan for the worst!" ”

"That's exactly what it should be!"

Lu Su and the others did not have any objections.

Although there are problems, it is still worth trying.

They have fought with the Qin army, and they also know the strength of the Qin army, although they are not without a chance to win, but if they have a certain amount of reinforcements, then they are even more sure.

As for the worst-case scenario, it depends on the outcome.

And they have internal problems, but they still have certain expectations in their hearts when it comes to matters related to Jiangdong.

"Okay, this matter is decided like this, first strengthen the defense in the city, calm the brake, first see how the Qin army will act, and then make another arrangement!" Zhou Yu finally decided.

According to the news report, there are only 30,000 Qin troops outside the city, and they have 50,000 soldiers and horses, but they still have no idea of attacking or fighting outside the city.

After all, when planning the rest of Jingzhou's territory.

They have not fought with the Qin army once or twice, they still have a certain understanding, if they go out of the city, it is difficult to ensure that it is in line with the Qin army's thoughts.

Moreover, even if the Qin army only had 30,000 people, they were not too sure.

The people who controlled the Qin army in Jingzhou were no worse than them, so how could they not think of the possibility of an attack?

To avoid mistakes.

Prudence is the most suitable.

on this.

Lu Su and the others didn't have any opinions, and they all nodded in agreement.

I don't know what arrangements the Qin army has, and it is not easy to make corresponding countermeasures, so I can only wait.

As for what happens after that, it can only be as Zhou Yu said, step by step.

In the face of the current Qin army, they can't help but be unsafe, once they make a mistake, it is very likely that the Qin army will seize the opportunity and take them down in one fell swoop.
