196. New offensive directions
After Liu Bei got a daughter, he named him Chan. Originally, he wanted to name his son Liu Chan, but now he gave birth to a daughter, so Liu Bei changed his name to Chan. After determining the name of the girl, he handed her over to Mrs. Gan and the nurse to take care of. And Liu Bei decided to go out to fight. When you're in a bad mood, the best remedy is to bully others. Han Fei knew Liu Bei's thoughts, so he gave him a direction. He advised Liu Bei: Yuan Shao should not move for the time being, but Sun Ce's recent development has been too fast, and he should send troops to beat him!
After listening to this, Liu Bei also felt that it was feasible, so Sun Ce should beat it. The last time I knew that I had sent someone to rescue Liu Xuan, I actually killed him, which obviously didn't take me seriously! At this time, it should be that he is angry. So Liu Bei decided to beat Sun Ce immediately! Han Fei nodded, since Liu Bei agreed, it would be easy to do. As he spoke, Han Fei opened a map, which was accurately drawn by the shadow after a long period of measurement, and the mountains, rivers, and cities and counties on it were marked.
After the map was unfolded, Han Fei pointed to a place on the map and said, "This is the Dantu and Qu'a belong to Yangzhou, and they are two small county towns on the south bank of the Yangtze River. Today, the two counties are next to each other on the map, and they are very close to each other. What I mean is that these two counties must be held in the hands of this army! As long as the two counties can be captured, a nail will be planted on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and if you want to recover Jiangnan in the future, you can directly send troops from there. ”
Liu Bei nodded after listening to Han Fei's words, but he then asked, "This time to send troops to mobilize the people, will it be too few if only two counties are taken?" Why don't you just knock down that Wu County? Han Fei said with a smile: "Wu County is the place where Sun Ce's army started, and his mother's relatives are here, if the lord goes to attack, he will resist desperately." Even if it can be captured, it will definitely lose more troops than it will lose! ”
Liu Bei was a little unwilling to say after hearing this: "If it's only for these two places, I really don't think it's worth it!" Since the south side is not good, why not go west? After Liu Bei finished speaking, he looked at Han Fei, Han Fei looked at the map carefully and said, "Then let's fight another city." Han Fei said and pointed with his hand, and Liu Bei followed to see that Han Fei was pointing to Moling City. This tomb was the capital of Chu during the Warring States Period, but it fell into disrepair after the Han Dynasty, and now it has long since lost its prosperity. However, Han Fei knew that if it was according to the development of history, Sun Quan would build a city there a few years later, and renamed it Jianye and then used it as the capital of Wu. It must not be too bad to be selected by Sun Quan as a place to build the capital, so Han Fei directly told Liu Bei about this place. Liu Bei looked at the map again, nodded and said, "Okay, this is the city, I will definitely take this city!" Then send people to rebuild this Moling City, and use this city as the foundation to encroach on the counties in the south of the Yangtze River! ”
The strategy has been decided, and the next step is to use troops. Liu Bei knew that Han Fei's concubine was about to give birth, and he was depressed, so he personally led his troops to crusade against Sun Ce. Han Fei didn't say anything else when he heard it, but he told Liu Bei to bring Jia Xu with him. Liu Bei nodded in agreement. The next day, Liu Bei announced that he would send troops to fight against Sun Ce. Tai Shi Ci immediately asked to follow after Liu Bei finished speaking, and he wanted to avenge the old lord Liu Xuan. Liu Bei knew what he thought, and immediately sighed: "Ziyi is really a loyal and brave man!" So he agreed to be freewheeling. Zhang Fei also came out at this time: "The eldest brother personally led the troops to fight, and the younger brother is willing to be the vanguard!" Liu Bei nodded and said, "Okay, this time you and my brother are fighting side by side, and we will definitely defeat Sun Ce!" Zhang Fei laughed when he saw Liu Bei Yingyun and returned to his position.
Han Fei opened his mouth at this time: "Lord, you can send someone to send a letter to Ding Feng, and the navy must accompany you!" And after the lord goes to the south, he must gather more generals and soldiers of the water army, and then build a water village to station the water army there! ”
Liu Bei nodded after hearing this: "Just let Chengyuan stay in the south, this Liaodong is still stationed alone!" Han Fei echoed: "It's all up to the lord!" Then the people discussed some details of the troops. Liu Bei immediately wrote a letter to Ding Feng, ordering him to speed up the warship to go to sea and go to Xuzhou along the coastal road to join him. Then Zhang Fei was ordered to be the vanguard, Jia Xu was the military advisor, Tai Shici and Dian Wei and others were the generals to raise 50,000 troops and go straight to Sun Ce to kill.
Ten days after Liu Bei's army was dispatched, Sun Ce learned the news. He was taken aback at the moment, and said in his heart: "I didn't provoke you, why did you come to attack me!" However, at this time, Liu Bei had already sent troops to say anything, so Sun Ce ordered Zhou Yu to lead the army down the river from the Lujiang River and rush to Dantu to join him. And he himself personally led an army of 30,000 with Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Chen Wu, Ling Cao, father and son and others to Dantu to meet the battle!
Without further ado, Zhang Fei traveled all the way, and on this day he came to the capital city of Guangling Town. Guangling Taishou Chen Jian led the crowd to greet him, and Zhang Fei and Chen Jian were old acquaintances. Back then, the two of them fought against Yuan Shu's army with Han Fei here, how can the friendship they formed at that time be forgotten. Jian Chen let Zhang Fei into the city and held a banquet to wash the dust for Zhang Fei! Zhang Fei was overjoyed at the moment and drank bitterly with Jian Chen. Liu Bei's army arrived in Jiangdu City a day later than Zhang Fei, because there were too many people, Liu Bei stationed the army outside the city, and he returned to the city with Dian Wei, Jia Xu and others with Chen Jian, who was out to greet him.
In the Taishou Mansion, Liu Bei sat on the main seat. He opened his mouth and asked, "Zi wins, then what can Sun Ce do?" Chen Jian replied: "My lord, since the army of the independent prince was dispatched, there has been a lot of noise on the other side of the Yangtze River. At this moment, Zhou Yu led the naval army to bring the Dantu. However, it seems that they have no intention of sending troops ashore except for sending spies to check on here. ”
After hearing this, Liu Bei nodded and said, "Okay, Zi Ying will send more people, I want to know that Sun Ce's army is there at this time." Chen Jian nodded, and at this time Liu Bei turned his head and asked Jia Xu: "Wen He thinks how to proceed with this battle?" ”
When Jia Xu heard Liu Bei's question, he immediately said with a smile: "The navy on the Yangtze River is dominant, and if you want the army to cross the river, you still have to rely on the navy." The lord might as well wait for General Ding Feng to arrive before making a decision. Liu Bei listened to Jia Xu's words and thought deeply, he spoke: "In this case, the army will rest outside this Jiangdu for a few days, and it will not be too late to attack when Ding Feng and his naval army arrive!" ”
After listening to this, the crowd said in unison: "The Lord is wise! Liu Bei laughed heartily!
Three days later, Ding Feng led fifteen large ships to ride the wind and waves. Liu Bei saw the warship of the navy with his own eyes, and not only sighed at the moment: "I don't want to have such an elite navy under my command, Zicong is really powerful!" After sighing, Liu Bei saw that the time was ripe, and immediately led the army to move to the bank of the Yangtze River and set up camp.
At this time, the battle between Liu Bei and Sun Ce was about to break out!
