Tai Shi Ci stood up from his seat and paced back and forth in the hall. (）

After a long time, Tai Shi Ci said with a straight face: "Third son, the lord took the army away, and there are not many soldiers left in Jiujiang County. As for the local soldiers in Jiujiang County, they lack training and need to be reorganized. If we want to use troops against Jiangxia and Jingnan counties, it will be at least half a year later. Even if you send troops, you have to unite with the eldest prince's water army to ensure that it goes smoothly, and it's not easy to send troops. ”

Sun Yi said with great enthusiasm: "General Taishi, the battlefield is the best place to train soldiers, and it is also the fastest way. Even if you are a soldier, it is better to go to the battlefield for a while than to train for a month. ”

Tai Shi Ci nodded and said, "The third prince is reasonable, and Ci also agrees with this statement. However, our army has a small number of troops, and the losses of soldiers in the battlefield are too great for us to bear. ”

Sun Yi said angrily: "General Taishi, if you blindly defend, how can you hold Jiujiang County?" ”

Tai Shi Ci said: "With the assistance of the navy, it is enough to hold Jiujiang County." ”

Sun Yi sighed, and finally had nothing to say.

Although he has the reputation of Sun Jian's son, Sun Yi didn't want to oppress people with power, so he finally obeyed Tai Shici's orders. Sun Yi's eyes rolled and said, "General Taishi, if we don't attack, it's always okay to attack Wang Can." You give me 1,000 soldiers, and I will attack Changsha County, pretend to attack, and mobilize Wang Can's troops. ”

Tai Shici shouted: "No, if the third prince is on a business trip, how can I go to the main bus?" ”

Sun Yi was furious and said without giving an inch: "General Taishi, although I am the son of my father, I am also a general in the army, and I want to serve the country." This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what else can I do? Father asked you to guard Jiujiang County, are you willing to be a dog guarding the house and don't want to expand the territory? ”

Tai Shici's face changed greatly, and he said: "Third son, opening up the territory is not just a matter of saying two words. ”

Seeing Tai Shici's insistence, Sun Yi flicked his sleeves and left directly.

Tai Shici looked at Sun Yi's departing back and smiled bitterly.

Sun Jian asked him to defend Jiujiang County, which was a very challenging thing. If you take the initiative to attack, Jiujiang County will be empty, and it will be easy for Wang Can to take advantage of it.

Tai Shi Ci sighed, left the Taishou Mansion, and ran towards the school grounds.

At this time, the most important thing is to train an elite soldier to be able to adapt to the situation.

……

Poyang Lake, thousands of miles of blue water.

On a large warship, Zhou Yu was training a naval army.

Zhou Yu held the order flag in his hand, and kept ordering the soldiers to conduct drills, so that the warships put on various battle formations, cultivate the tacit understanding of the naval soldiers, and enhance the water nature of the naval soldiers.

The sound of footsteps came, and Sun Ce walked quickly.

Zhou Yu looked back and asked with a smile: "Bo Fu, have you found the lair of the Ganning Water Army?" ”

Sun Ce nodded and said: "I did find out, Gan Ning's lair is in Dongting Lake, but unfortunately Gan Ning's house is very cunning, and the remaining naval soldiers have already been transferred, and our people are empty." ”

After a pause, Sun Ce continued: "Although I didn't find Gan Ning, I found out a shocking news. With an edict, Wang Can has surrendered the counties of Jingnan and realized the unification of Jingzhou. Wang Can is now commanding all the counties in Jingzhou, so he is not majestic, I am afraid that Jiangdong will also return to war soon. ”

Zhou Yu nodded and said, "It's a pity that the Taishou of the four counties of Jingnan didn't resist, it's a pity." ”

Sun Ce said helplessly: "This is also expected, Gong Jin, this time I came to you to discuss the matter of the navy with you." Our navy has rested for a while, can we go to the battlefield? ”

Zhou Yu hugged his fists and said: "Of course you can!" ”

Sun Ce said with a smile: "Okay, let's discuss how to deal with the counties of Jingnan and add trouble to Wang Can, so that Wang Can will not turn around and deal with us." ”

Zhou Yu nodded and said, "That makes sense." ”

The two turned and walked towards the cabin, discussing the next steps.

……

Jiangxia, Taishou Mansion.

Wang Can summoned Jia Xu, Xu Shu and Guo Jia again to discuss the matter.

This time, Wang Can convened the three of them to discuss no matter what happened in Jingnan, but about Jiujiang County. Jiujiang County and Jiangxia County border, and if Wang Can wants to expand eastward, he has to take Jiujiang County, and then continue to expand his territory and encroach on Jiangdong. If Wang Can wants to plot Jiangdong, he must first attack Jiujiang before he can succeed.

Wang Can said slowly: "Jingnan has been pacified, Jingzhou has been decided, Cao Cao is busy dealing with Yuan Shao, and we have to hurry up to deal with Sun Jian." Therefore, I am ready to attack Jiujiang, and this is the case, and I will share my opinions. ”

Jia Xu said: "My lord, the attack on Jiangdong requires a naval army, and now that the naval army has been hit hard, I am afraid that it will be difficult." ”

Xu Shu continued: "Sun Jian left Jiujiang, but left Zhou Yu and Sun Ce to lead the naval army to stay in Poyang Lake. Once the Jiangdong naval army crosses the Yangtze River, it will definitely block the rear route of our army, in short, without the support of the naval army, the situation of our army is quite difficult. ”

Guo Jia said in a deep voice: "Yuan Zhi and Wenhe are reasonable, Jia will not say anything more, please think twice before acting." ”

"Please think twice before you act!"

The three of them spoke at the same time to persuade them, hoping that Wang Can would consider it carefully.

In fact, it was quite difficult to attack Jiangdong without the assistance of Ganning's naval army. The Jiangdong water system is developed and full of rivers, which is not conducive to the charge of iron horses, and light boats are the most suitable. Sun Jian took advantage of the geographical location of Jiangdong to dare to say that he would give Cao Cao 500,000 troops, and it would be difficult to fight to Wu County.

Jiangdong's position is Sun Jian's confidence.

Wang Can saw that the three of them insisted, but he was not angry.

He smiled and explained, "Wenhe, Fengxiao, and Yuanzhi, I have already considered your opinions, and listen to me in detail. First of all, let's analyze the heavy damage to the naval army mentioned by Wenhe, our army lost more than 30,000 naval soldiers, which is indeed a great loss of military strength, but the naval army in Jingzhou is far more than more than 30,000, nearly 100,000 naval troops. Although 100,000 people are a plate of loose sand, but if it is handed over to Gan Ning for training, nine out of ten, 100,000 people will leave 10,000 people, it should be okay, right? ”

After finishing speaking, Wang Can looked at Jia Xu.

The Jingzhou Navy is a soldier who is familiar with water warfare, but the government orders are not clear, the training is not diligent, as long as it passes through Gan Ning's **, it will definitely burst out with strong combat effectiveness, which is a way for Wang Can to come up with to make up for the water army.

Jia Xu arched his hand and said: "The lord is wise, and he bows to him." ”

Wang Can looked at Xu Shu again and said, "As for Zhou Yu and Sun Ce mentioned by Yuan Zhi, as long as Gan Ning is given a month, it is enough to restore seventy percent of the strength of the navy, or even higher. With the naval army under Gan Ning's command, we will start attacking Jiujiang County again, even if Tai Shici, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce obstruct us, we will have a lot to do. ”

Xu Shu said: "The key to sending troops lies in the navy, and if the lord solves the difficulties of the navy, there will be no shortage of soldiers, grain and grass in our army, and it is logical to send troops." ”

Wang Can asked again: "Fengxiao, what do you think?" ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "The lord has already thought about it, Jia has nothing to say." ”

Wang Can stroked his palms and said: "Since you all have no opinions, I will inform Gan Ning of the news and ask him to train a naval army again within a month to revive the prestige of our army." ”

At that moment, Wang Can found the soldiers who sent the message and gave Gan Ning an order, so that when Gan Ning recruited the soldiers of the navy who could fight well, he would also gather all the sailors of Jiangxia together for unified screening and select more suitable sailors.

The navy is strong, and Wang Can has confidence.
