Chapter 405: Attack on Hefei

Jiujiang County, at present, Lu Bu has won eight or nine out of ten of the territory.

The rest of the cities, without the slightest desire to resist, are expected to surrender.

In short, the process of recovering Lujiang County was very smooth.

Lu Bu prepared to take all of Lujiang County, take a certain amount of time, and wait for Lujiang County to be completely stabilized, and then start attacking Jiujiang County.

But at this moment, the military advisor Jia Xu came to the door.

Jia Xu said to Lu Bu: "My lord, according to the opinion of my subordinates, it is best to attack Hefei in the middle of half a month, and I am afraid of changes if it is late." ”

Within half a month?

Why is it in such a hurry?

Lu Bu couldn't help but ask in wonder: "Military Division, half a month, it's a little too rushed, right?" In half a month, Jiujiang County can't stabilize at all, so we don't need to rush like this, right? ”

In Lu Bu's opinion, it was a matter of time before he took Jiujiang County, and there was no need to be in such a hurry.

Jia Xu said to Lu Bu: "My lord, if it's just Liu Xuan, of course there is nothing to worry about, but now Liu Xuan has sent messengers to Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Liu Biao respectively to ask for support. ”

"Once Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Liu Biao send troops to support Liu Xuan, then our chances of taking Jiujiang County will be greatly reduced, and it will even be difficult to take it."

Hiss!

After hearing the news, Lu Bu couldn't help but gasp.

He didn't think of this question.

After pondering for a while, Lu Bu couldn't help but say to Jia Xu: "So what does the military advisor think is the probability that Liu Bei and Cao Cao will send troops?" The county guard believes that Liu Biao should be unlikely to send troops! ”

"Liu Biao occupies Jingzhou, but in fact, the power of Jingzhou is actually in the hands of those big families. It is not in their interest for them to send troops to support Liu Xuan and deal with us. So, I don't think Liu Biao will send troops. ”

"It is not very likely that Liu Bei will send troops, Xuzhou itself is the place of four wars, Cao Cao is eyeing Xuzhou, Liu Bei should not dare to risk sending troops to attack me!"

"Then there is only one Cao Cao left! Now Cao Cao's troops are far inferior to mine, is Cao Cao really willing to go against me? Isn't he afraid that I will retaliate against him? ”

After listening to Lu Bu's analysis, Jia Xu couldn't help but nod slightly.

Then he said to Lu Bu: "My lord, my subordinates have concluded that if there is enough time left for Jiujiang County, Liu Biao of Jingzhou will definitely send troops!" Cao Cao will not let go of this opportunity, as for Liu Bei in Xuzhou, this is still in the middle of the two, but the probability of sending troops is also very high. ”

"Oh?" Lu Bu was puzzled and asked, "Why did the military advisor say this?" Let's hear it! ”

Jia Xu said eloquently: "The lord's judgment of Jingzhou and Liu Biao is actually not a problem. However, the lord ignored one point, that is, in the eyes of the family in Jingzhou, the lord is their number one enemy! ”

"Everything the lord has done in Jiangdong has been committed to eradicating or weakening the power of the family! And in the entire Han Dynasty, it is the family that really controls the situation! Therefore, it can now be said that the lord has become the public enemy of the entire family! ”

"And now the strength of the lord can be said to be the largest among all the forces. The sudden rise of the lord has seriously threatened the interests of the family! Therefore, the subordinates concluded that Jingzhou would inevitably send troops to assist Liu Xuan! ”

"As for Cao Cao, his strategy is to focus on anti-guest, and after sending troops to Jiujiang County, he will take the opportunity to occupy Jiujiang County! And Liu Bei is estimated to have the same thoughts, and he can also win a reputation for benevolence and righteousness. Faced with such a thing, how could he miss it? ”

After listening to Jia Xu's analysis, Lu Bu couldn't help but be shocked into a cold sweat.

Sure enough, in the fight for world domination, it is impossible to rely on blind bravery.

In the original historical trajectory, it is not unreasonable for him to dominate the world by force, but he has been running for half a life and accomplished nothing.

If Liu Bei, Cao Cao and Liu Biao all sent troops to Jiujiang County.

Not only can he not take Jiujiang County, but even the Lujiang County that he has in his hands may be devoured by them.

At present, his Jiangdong has just developed a little better, and is in a period of rapid development.

Lu Bu didn't want to open fire with the three major forces at the same time, which was not in his interests at all.

Therefore, the plan for today is to take Jiujiang County as soon as possible.

Let Liu Bei, Cao Cao and Liu Biao have no chance to take advantage of it.

Lu Bu couldn't help but ask Jia Xu: "Military advisor, if we sneak attack Hefei, how sure is it that we will succeed?" ”

Jia Xu Chengzhu said in his chest: "Lord, no matter what the plan, there is no such thing as being able to succeed!" However, his subordinates believed that Liu Miao and his subordinates would not have expected us to attack Hefei by surprise. So our chances of success should be more than 70%! ”

"If it is supplemented by a naval army, even if it can't take Hefei in one fell swoop, it can at least occupy more than half of Hefei's territory. In three days at most, Hefei must be in our pocket. ”

"And once Hefei is occupied, then the entire southern part of Jiujiang County will be in no danger to defend, and Jiujiang County can be said to have taken half of it. As for the remaining half, it can also be taken with the momentum of the wind and clouds. ”

After listening to Jia Xu's analysis, Lu Bu couldn't help but nod again and again.

I have to say that Jia Xu's analysis is extremely exquisite, and Lu Bu is convinced.

That's the benefit of having a strategist!

Otherwise, if Lu Bu followed his original plan, he would miss the opportunity, and even the Lujiang County that he had in his hands might be lost.

At that moment, Lu Bu gathered Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Gao Shun, Dian Wei and Huang Gai together, and joined forces of 70,000 to prepare for a surprise attack on Hefei.

As for Lujiang County, which had just taken most of it, Lu Bu only left a small number of troops, which were basically handed over to Zhang Ying, Chen Heng and Wang Wei to deal with.

These three people are all generals, and Lu Bu can rest assured and boldly hand over the entire Lujiang County to them, which makes these three people even more grateful to Lu Bu.

Of course, Lu Bu is also absolutely confident, even if these three people want to play any tricks, they will not make much waves.

LΓΌ Bu only took three days to reorganize the army, and then personally led an army of 70,000 to prepare to attack Hefei.

At the same time, LΓΌ Bu informed Gan Ning's navy and ordered him to lead the navy to infiltrate Hefei and cooperate with the army.

In the previous battles, Gan Ning's navy contributed very little, and he didn't make many achievements at all.

First, they didn't meet each other's decent naval army, and second, if many cities were persuaded to surrender, there would be no place for their naval army.

And now, when Gan Ning heard that they finally had a place to use, Gan Ning couldn't help but be completely excited.

This time, he Gan Ning wants everyone to see how powerful his Gan Ning water army is!

Three days later, LΓΌ Bu led a large army, divided into four routes, and launched an attack on Hefei.

On the first road, Lu Bu personally led the army, led Gao Shun and Dian Wei, led 15,000 men and horses, and chose the middle road to drive straight in.

The second route was Zhang Fei and Huang Gai, leading 30,000 soldiers and horses, and marched from the left road.

The third route was Guan Yu, leading 30,000 soldiers and horses, and marched from the right road.

The fourth road is Ganning's naval army, with a total of 5,000 people, and it is a road of its own.
