Chapter 214: Zhou Yu, Sun Cetu, Nanyang, Liu Feng led troops to Anfeng

Yuan Shu was stationed in front of Sun Ce's Yuzhou Anfeng for a month, and during this month, Sun Ce sent several times to urge Yuan Shu to attack Yangzhou, but Yuan Shu was waiting for Liu Bei's reply, so he didn't leave in a hurry, but kept replying to delay time!

At this time, Yuzhou County ruled Runan City, and Sun Ce and Zhou Yu sat together.

"Gong Jin, has the envoy who went to the Yuan Shu camp come back?" Sun Ce asked!

"I've come back, but Yuan Shu's reply is no different from before!" Zhou Yu nodded and said!

"I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in this Yuan Shu gourd, I was in a hurry to go to Yangzhou by way, but now I am staying in Anfeng, only a water away from the Lujiang River, but why?"

"Lord, this matter is indeed strange, I have sent scouts to the Yuan Shu camp to investigate, the specific results are still unknown, it will take time!" Zhou Yu thought about it and said!

"Gong Jin, you said that this Yuan Shu wouldn't be the idea of wanting to fight Yuzhou, so you don't want to continue south, right?" Sun Ce said with concern!

"It shouldn't be, Nanfeng is adjacent to Runan, and it is the place where our army is stationed, there are almost 70,000 troops stationed in Anfeng and Runan, and now although Yuan Shu has 200,000 troops, they are all under the supervision of our army scouts, so they should not do this unwise move!

It's just that in order to guard against Yuan Shu, the lord should increase his troops to An Feng again to prevent accidents! At the same time, I am ready to personally send Yuan Shu to investigate the specific situation in Yuan Shu's army! Zhou Yu thought about it and said!

"This is very good, only by determining Yuan Shu's intentions, can I have a chance to prescribe the right medicine! Sun Ce may not say anything, so he listened to the report of the pro-soldier that Lu Su asked to see!

"Why did Zijing come here at this time?" After Sun Ce asked his own soldiers to invite Lu Su in, he spoke!

"Lord, the scout has come to report, there are about 10,000 cavalry from the direction of Nanyang to Runan, and they will go towards Anfeng along the wartime passage opened by the lord for Yuan Shu!" Lu Su said respectfully!

"What? 10,000 cavalry, what banner do you fight? Zhou Yu hurriedly asked!

"The scout said that the 10,000 cavalry had two banners, one was Liang, and the other was Liu! And all cavalry should be one man and two horses! Lu Su introduced!

"Lord, it seems that Yuan Shu has been waiting for more than a month in Anfeng, and it seems that he is waiting for these 10,000 cavalry, but where did Yuan Shu transfer these 10,000 cavalry?" Zhou Yu said to Sun Ce!

"Yuan Shu has the help of these 10,000 cavalry, and then there are 200,000 troops, there is no suspense in the battle in Yangzhou, and Yuan Shu is the leader in the southeast states!" Sun Ce said helplessly!

"What the lord said is the afterword, and what I am thinking about now is where did Yuan Shu come from so many war horses? And how can you get these war horses? Zhou Yu frowned and said!

"Now the source of war horses is several states in the north of the Han Dynasty, and the northeast Youzhou is controlled by Gongsun Chan and Gongsun Du, although Gongsun Chan is in alliance with Yuan Shu, but he cannot send the war horse to Nanyang through the land of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Tao Qian and others;

The northern state is now under attack by Yuan Shao, so naturally there is no way to send more than 10,000 war horses across the Yellow River, not to mention that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are not dealing with each other, and naturally they will not fund Yuan Shu!

And Liangzhou in the northwest, the Western Regions, Yongzhou and other places are controlled by Liu Bei, and Liu Bei has a wide source of war horses, and Nanyang Wuguan is adjacent to Hangu Pass and Tongguan controlled by Liu Bei, so I think about it, it is very likely that these war horses were obtained from Liu Bei! Lu Su thought for a while, and then opened his mouth to analyze!

"Indeed, the only one who can provide so many war horses for Yuan Shu is Liu Bei, but Liu Bei will not send Yuan Shu so many war horses for no reason, Liu Bei and Yuan Shu must have a deal, this matter is the key!" Zhou Yu said!

"Gong Jin, now that the Yuan Shu cavalry has just built a city, it may not be able to have combat effectiveness, can it?" Sun Ce thought about it and asked!

"Lord, no, after all, there are 10,000 cavalry, even if they have just formed and have no combat power, they can't be wiped out unless there are 30,000 elites. And as long as one person escapes, it will inevitably cause great trouble! Think twice! Lu Su was shocked when he heard this, and then hurriedly said!

"However, this is a full 10,000 war horses, if it can be obtained by me, I can resist Cao Cao in the north and attack Yuan Shu in the south, on the contrary, I will also be subject to Yuan Shu everywhere!" Sun Ce said without giving up!

"It is impossible for the lord to quietly take down these 10,000 war horses, but it is still possible for the lord to send Yuan Shu to ask for a part of the war horses!

Once 10,000 cavalry enter Yuan Shu's army, Yuan Shu will inevitably raise troops to attack Yangzhou, and logistics will be particularly important at that time, and Yuan Shu's logistics will be controlled in the hands of the lord, so that the lord can ask for one or two thousand war horses for this threat! Zhou Yu said!

"That's all there is to it!" Sun Ce said helplessly!

"Lord, I think about it, presumably Yuan Shu has already traded Wuguan to Liu Bei, otherwise Liu Bei would not have sent 10,000 war horses to Yuan Shu! In the future, Nanyang is afraid that he will have a battle with Liu Bei! Zhou Yu thought for a while, and then spoke!

"Nanyang is located on the main road, connecting Jingzhou in the south, Yuzhou in the east, and Sili in the north.

Similarly, if Liu Bei captures Nanyang and holds Nanyang, then Liu Bei will form a tiger out of the pass, and Liu Bei's northwest iron hooves can go south to fight with Liu Biao for Jingzhou, and fight for Yuzhou with me, and even attack the Tiger Pass before and after! So we must be on guard! Sun Ce opened his mouth and said!

"That's true, the lord should increase his troops in Runan as soon as possible, once Yuan Shu falls into a stalemate in Yangzhou, the lord can quickly send troops to capture Nanyang!" Zhou Yu opened his mouth to suggest!

At this time, there were only more than 100,000 troops in the entire Yuzhou, and if he really fought with Liu Bei, he would naturally not be Liu Bei's opponent, so Sun Ce ordered to recruit 50,000 troops in Yuzhou.

At the same time, he ordered Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Chen Wu to order another 30,000 soldiers to garrison at the junction of Runan and Nanyang, and ordered Han Dang and Zhu Zhi to lead Anfeng's troops to Runan and prepare to attack Nanyang when Yuan Shu left Anfeng!

In this way, Sun Ce gathered almost 100,000 troops in Runan, and basically prepared to seize Nanyang in Runan, basically more than half of Yuzhou's troops were preparing to seize Nanyang in Runan!

……

Liu Feng led two thousand tigers and leopards to ride all the way in Runan, naturally he was also cautious, for Liu Bei, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan, and Gongsun Du in the north, 10,000 war horses were naturally nothing, but for Sun Ce, the assassin of Yuzhou, 10,000 war horses was a great wealth, so he had entered Sun Ce's territory, and Liu Feng ordered 500 tigers and leopards to ride out to investigate!

And Liu Feng himself and Huang Xu personally led a thousand tigers and leopards to be on standby at any time, as for Ma Chao and the remaining five hundred tigers and leopards, they continued to train the five thousand Yuan Shu cavalry led by Liang Gang, and all the way were also Ma Xie's people did not stop, so in just ten days from Wuguan, the five thousand cavalry had a look!

"Liu Gongzi, is it necessary to be so cautious?" Liang Gangjian Liu Feng was so careful after entering Runan, so he asked!

"Of course, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu don't know that your 5,000 cavalry is a new army and has no combat effectiveness, otherwise, we would have fought with Sun Ce a long time ago! After all, if Sun Ce had these 10,000 more war horses, there would be no one in the entire southern states who would be his opponent! Liu Feng said!

"However, even if he is so cautious and vigilant, if Sun Ce is interested in more than 10,000 war horses, it is not impossible, right?" Liang Gang still doesn't give up!

"Indeed, if Sun Ce wants to blatantly seize it, there is indeed a way, but Sun Ce still has to consider that seizing the war horse will attract Yuan Gong's revenge, and can Sun Ce resist the 200,000 elites?" Liu Feng said with a smile!

"Even if this is the case, Sun Ce will definitely not dare to come!" Liang Gang said confidently!

"Don't you dare, don't you dare? And if more than 100,000 people are brought to come and all of us are annihilated, then who else can report to Yuan Gong? Liu Feng continued!!

And Liang Gang didn't say much when he heard this!

After that, Liu Feng ordered 7,000 cavalry and 5,000 war horses, all the way carefully, and it took ten days to arrive at the place where Yuan Shu rested, Anfeng!
