Take advantage of your illness to kill you.

This is the norm in troubled times, when the princes are fighting.

Only a fool would talk to the public enemy of the world at this time about loyalty, benevolence, righteousness, and morality.

Yuan Shu is like the biggest public enemy today, when the strength is not strong, the timing is not right, and the territory that is not conducive to defense is called the emperor, it is simply looking for death.

After Liu Bei and Cao Cao fought each other, they all set their targets on Yuan Shu, which was also natural.

Not to mention other people, even Liu Biao, the dog guarding the tomb, was a little moved for a moment, and he also wanted to take the opportunity to drive Zhang Xiu out of Nanyang, but there were not many generals who could use it in his hands.

drove away Zhang Xiu, and the person who took over may not be able to resist Cao Cao's offensive, and in this current Nanyang is like chicken ribs, the food is tasteless, and it is a pity to lose it. Therefore, after thinking about it again, Liu Biao still gave up this plan. What's more, Liu Biao's life was not easy, and the four counties south of Jingzhou and south of the Yangtze River suddenly became unstable.

Cao Cao's relocation of Emperor Han Xian to Xu County finally began to affect Liu Biao.

Liu Biao vaguely detected that Zhang Xian, the Taishou of Changsha, wanted to rebel against him.

Strictly speaking, in the matter of Zhang Xian, Liu Biao was rebellious, and Zhang Xian gathered the four counties to oppose Liu Biao, which was acting on the orders of the imperial court.

In fact, Zhang Xian was in the fifth year of Jian'an, that is, when the Battle of Guandu occurred, Changsha Renhuanjie, a-stirring stick, said that Zhang Xian took the initiative to get closer to Cao Cao and return to the imperial court.

It's a pity that at that time, Cao Cao focused on Yuan Shao and the Yuan brothers, and lost an opportunity to seize Jingzhou while the chaos was taking advantage of the chaos.

And the other prince who is eyeing Yuan Shu's big fat meat is Sun Ce.

After obtaining Danyang County, Sun Ce was not satisfied.

Of course, Sun Ce knew that at this time, Liu Bei would inevitably send troops to Jiujiang, after all, Liu Bei, who had freed his hands, was very close to Jiujiang County, Yuan Shu was newly defeated, and a large number of his subordinates and troops defected or surrendered to Liu Bei, which can be described as a rebellion.

In Jiujiang County, Yuan Shu must not be able to resist Liu Beijun's attack.

Then, the only thing Sun Ce is most suitable for capturing is Lujiang County.

At this time, the Taishou of Lujiang County was Liu Xun, another general under Yuan Shu.

In the conference hall, as soon as Sun Ce returned to Wu County, he immediately convened his generals to discuss how to recruit Liu Xun and seize Lujiang County first.

Sun Ce opened his mouth first and asked: "Everyone, at this time, Cao Cao and Liu Bei will inevitably send troops to attack Yuan Shu, especially Cao Cao, in order to be able to make up for the losses of the Dongjun incident, he will inevitably concentrate his forces to seize the entire Yuzhou. And the only chance for our army is to take Lujiang County.

If Liu Xun saw Cao Cao's strength, he was likely to throw himself on Cao Cao's side. Therefore, I want to take the opportunity to send troops to seize the Lujiang River. However, Liu Xun's troops are also very strong, coupled with the strong county of Lujiang County and the natural danger of the Yangtze River, if Liu Xun defends it with all his might. I am afraid that it will be difficult to take this city before the envoys sent by Cao Cao to recruit him arrive in Shu County. Do you have any good suggestions? ”

After Sun Ce's words were finished, all the generals in the council hall pondered.

After a while, Cheng Pu took the lead in speaking: "Eldest prince, Yuan Shu has been newly defeated, and his generals have rebelled, isn't this the best time for me to send troops to seize Jiujiang County?" Why do you have to touch Lujiang County? What's more, Sima Yi's behavior in Dongjun also gave us a good example, even if Liu Bei will send troops to fight with us for Jiujiang County, but as long as we act quickly, we will definitely be able to capture more people from Jiangbei to Jiangnan. ”

After Cheng Pu finished speaking, many generals nodded frequently, agreeing with his suggestion.

In fact, Cheng Pu's words are not wrong. Wu County and Danyang County were separated from Jiujiang County by only one Yangtze River, and if Jiujiang County was attacked from the water, Sun Ce's army would quickly break through the Jiujiang counties close to the Yangtze River and move their people away.

Not long before this, Sun Ce had already sent Lü Fan and Xu Yi to lead the army to attack Fuling County, where Chen Yu, the imperial court-appointed Wu County Taishou was stationed.

"No!" Unexpectedly, after listening to it, Sun Ce shook his head and denied Cheng Pu's suggestion, he explained: "Demougong, although the suggestion you put forward is good, it is very difficult to implement. Yuan Shu, like Dong Zhuo, after becoming emperor, didn't he make Jiujiang into a Jiujiang Yin?

It is reported that at that time, he forcibly relocated many people in Jiujiang counties to Shouchun. Moreover, there are only three counties closest to the Yangtze River in Jiujiang County, Fuling County, He County and Chao County. Chen Deng's Guangling is closer to Jiujiang County by land, and once we send troops, he will inevitably take the first step to cut off the passage between these three counties and the counties north of Jiujiang. As for Shouchun, Liu Bei will definitely personally lead the troops to capture him. There's no hurry in time! ”

"Not bad! Although this plan can be effective in the short term, in the long run, it will do more harm than good to our army. At this time, Zhou Yu spoke, he also objected to Cheng Pu's suggestion, he replied: "Bo Fu, if you want to forcibly move so many people to Jiangnan, there are two extremely disadvantages.

First, our army needs a large number of ships.

With Liu Bei and Cao Cao, the two forces are competing for time, but at this time, whether it is Wu County or Danyang County, there are not too many ships, and now is the time of the year when the Yangtze River is the most watery, and small boats and fishing boats cannot undertake the task of transporting the people.

Second, this is an obstacle to the reputation of our army in Jiangbei.

If this matter spreads to other counties in Jiujiang and Lujiang County, it will inevitably cause panic among the people in these two places. The people of Jiujiang County may all flee directly to Guangling County or Xiapi Kingdom.

Bo Fu, there is a sentence that you may not like to hear, but I still have to say it. You only have a great reputation in Jiangdong, but after crossing the Yangtze River, in the Jianghuai region, the name of Liu Bei Rende is beyond your reach now.

Therefore, I suggest that as far as Jiujiang County is concerned, it is necessary to continue to send troops to one county of Fuling County and take away all its people. And for Liu Xun of Lujiang County, Bo Fu, you just need to do this,...... In this way, in less than a month, the entire Lujiang County will definitely fall into your hands. ”

In the end, Zhou Yu presented Sun Ce with the plan he came up with.

In fact, Zhou Yu said that Sun Ce's reputation in the Jiangbei region was not as good as that of Liu Bei today, which was already a very euphemism.

At the beginning, before Sun Ce arrived in Jiangdong, he was just a high-ranking master under Yuan Shu.
