Chapter 1715: Support Koto
Liu Bei occupies Yizhou, and he must also want to do more, but Jiameng Pass is now in the hands of Lu Bu, if the soldiers in Shu want to attack Hanzhong, the first thing to do is to break through Jiameng Pass, and it is much simpler to attack Jiameng Pass from Shuzhong than to attack Jiameng Pass from outside, which is also deliberately done when building the checkpoint, otherwise once the important checkpoint in Yizhou is snatched by the enemy, the soldiers in Shuzhong want to come out, it is very difficult.
The loss of Baishui Pass and Jiameng Pass, to a great extent, limited the mobilization of the Yizhou army, once the army of Shuzhong attacked Jiameng Pass, the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou and Chang'an could be mobilized to Yizhou, with the strength of Yizhou now, it is extremely difficult to seize Hanzhong.
But Lu Bu's attack on Liangzhou was a good opportunity for Yizhou.
Sun Ce showed an ambitious side, but LΓΌ Bu was on the fence about the battle between the Jiangdong army and the Cao army, hoping that the two sides could fight more heavily, and the more fierce the battle between the two sides, the better the situation in Chang'an.
Li Ru said: "My lord, now Chang'an has an army of nearly 50,000, and it is naturally more than enough to protect Chang'an. β
Lu Bu nodded and said: "Wen You's words are very true, only Sun Ce and Cao Cao fight to the death, so there is no more energy to take care of the affairs of Chang'an." β
Guo Jia will naturally not object to this situation, whether it is Sun Ce or Cao Cao, in his opinion, they are Lu Bu's enemies, when the princes jointly attacked and merged with the state, it was a stalk in the hearts of the civil and military generals under Lu Bu's rule, they would not easily believe in any of the princes, these princes are now for their own strength, any allies, there is not much use, it is just a temporary truce between the two sides, after there are enough interests, they will tear their faces again to attack each other.
"Put this letter into the hands of Wen He." Lu Bu ordered.
The generals and soldiers of the army not only did not feel tired on the way to the march, but when they got closer and closer to the Wei Li Kingdom, they were a little excited, not only because of the merits, but also because of the hatred of the countries of the Western Regions in their hearts.
The countries of the Western Regions were originally attached to the Han Dynasty, but they wanted to get enough benefits from Liangzhou when the Han Dynasty was in turmoil, and this alone is unforgivable, and now the army of the King of Jin has enough strength to break through the Wei Li Kingdom, and even sweeping the Western Regions has a great possibility, and this kind of war will inevitably shine in the annals of history, which is a great glory for the generals, of course, in the hearts of ordinary soldiers, after breaking through the Wei Li Kingdom, it means that they can get more credit.
However, less than a day after the order was delivered, LΓΌ Bu again received an urgent letter from Chang'an.
This situation made Lu Bu a little puzzled, and hurriedly opened the letter, although there were a lot of troops in Chang'an at this time, if the princes jointly invaded Chang'an again, it would still be able to bring great turmoil to Hanoi and other places, especially Qingzhou and Jizhou were owned by Lu Bu not long ago, the family in the city did not really settle down, and when facing the war, it was very likely to go to the opposite side of Lu Bu, this situation was not what Lu Bu wanted to see.
After reading the contents of the letter, Lu Bu's mood could not be calm, Sun Ce actually met assassins in Jiangdong and died, and these assassins were precisely because Sun Ce had cleared the Xu family where Xu Gong was before, and Sun Ce died because of this incident in history, but I didn't expect that although the track of history has changed a lot, it will still not change in some things.
Lu Bu even foresaw how chaotic Jiangdong would be today, when Sun Ce was there, Jiangdong could still be stable, but Sun Ce had killed many people in order to stabilize Jiangdong over the years, and now with such an opportunity, how could they give up, Sun Quan had just taken charge of Jiangdong, and his foothold was not stable, it was a good opportunity for them to do it.
Guo Jia said: "Lord, but what happened in Chang'an?" β
"Bonghyo will know after reading it." Lu Bu handed the letter to Guo Jia.
After Guo Jia read it, after giving the letter to Li Ru, he arched his hand and said: "Lord, according to the current situation in Jiangdong, he does not have the strength to attack Nanjun, and the most important thing in Jiangdong today is probably to stabilize." β
"If Koto can't settle down in this turmoil, I'm afraid it's going to be dangerous." Li Rudao.
Lu Bu didn't understand the truth, but he was still very confident in Sun Quan, the situation in Jiangdong at this time was much better than when Sun Ce died in history, and he also occupied the four counties of Jingzhou, and his strength was strong, with Zhou Yu's means, it was not a difficult thing to let Jiangdong get out of this crisis, but Sun Ce died, and it always gave people a feeling of regret.
It is undeniable that Sun Ce is a fierce general on the battlefield, and he is perfect in his pistol skills, and Lu Bu also gave birth to a great role if he can recruit generals like Sun Ce under his command, Sun Ce is not only strong in martial arts, but also commendable in leading troops to fight, otherwise why would Jiangdong have a strong situation today.
"After Sun Ce's death, if the lord supports Jiangdong, he will definitely be able to make Jiangdong grateful to the lord." Guo Jiadao.
Li Ru frowned slightly, if the main force of the army was in Chang'an at this time, he might be able to benefit from this turmoil, especially when the princes were in chaos, and he had no time to take care of Chang'an, and if he supported Jiangdong, it meant that Chang'an would have to take some risks for the time being.
"Feng Xiao wrote a letter and asked him to send soldiers and horses to Wuguan to threaten Nanyang, and if there is an opportunity, directly attack Nanyang." Lu Bu said in a deep voice, he did this, not only to believe in Jiangdong, but also to give Jiangdong a huge favor, of course, if Nanyang can be broken, it will be extremely beneficial for Chang'an, once Nanyang is broken, Cao's power in Jingzhou will inevitably be greatly affected, and even the safety of Xu Du will be threatened.
Guo Jia and Li Ru showed puzzlement after hearing Lu Bu's words, and now the situation in Jiangdong is critical, if they support Jiangdong, it is reasonable that an existing Jiangdong can better contain Cao Cao's soldiers and horses, and if they send soldiers and horses to really attack Nanyang County, it is not necessary in their opinion.
"Now Chang'an has Fu Zhu, Jia Xu, Pang De, Tai Shici and others, if you go all out, there is no chance to seize Nanyang County, you all think that this king will not send troops to attack Nanyang County, Cao Cao will also have the same opinion, this king will do the opposite, after breaking Wancheng, Cao's army will inevitably be under great threat, temporarily unable to attack Jiangdong, and with Wancheng as a support, this king will have a greater reliance when he attacks Jingzhou." Lu Bu said slowly.
