Chapter 929: Multi-way attack
Zhang Fei's death simply made Liu Bei faint, the three brothers went to the second, and more importantly, they got rid of their most trusted henchmen, and no one could decide the big matter from now on.
So, Liu Bei begged Lu Peng to rebel against Fan Zhang and personally kill the two to avenge his third brother. As a result, how could Lu Peng take out the people who surrendered to him like Sun Quan did at the beginning? Wouldn't that chill people's hearts? So, the letter of request to Liu Bei was thrown directly on the ground, and he didn't even bother to look at it.
The situation changed, Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang to mobilize Wu Ban Chen Daoshui from Lujiang to attack Jianye, in fact, it was a blockade, and Zhuge Liang led the army to kill Chaisang, first seized and attacked Jingzhou to cut off the connection between Jingzhou and Eastern Wu, and Liu Bei led the army to attack Xiangfan.
And LΓΌ Peng led the army down the Yangtze River and went straight to Yiling, such a serious situation made LΓΌ Meng and Lu Xun, who were stationed in Jingzhou, feel a lot of pressure.
The two of them urgently discussed countermeasures.
"Chaisang, is the node that connects us to the old camp of Dongwu, we can't lose it, Xiangfan is the focus of Liu Bei's attack, and it can't be lost, and Nanjun is the key point of Lu Peng's attack, if it is lost, Lu Peng will go down the river, and the counties south of the Yangtze River are not guaranteed, so the current situation is that Jingzhou can't be lost anywhere. We just had two fingers, but a bunch of fleas jumped out, which made us how to press. Lu Meng covered his head in pain and didn't know what to do.
Lu Xun said indifferently: "Three armies attacked me, but some were weak and some were strong, let's go to the weak enemy first, and then fight the strong enemy, all the way down, and finally Jingzhou will be stable." β
Lu Meng asked suspiciously, "Then according to you, which of the three roads is stronger?" β
Lu Xun snapped his fingers and calculated for him: "Let's talk about Liu Bei first, Liu Bei brought 200,000 horses, and killed our Jingzhou Xiangfan with great momentum, Zhuge Liang took 50,000 horses, 50,000 sailors, and attacked our Jianye and Chaisang, in terms of troops, Liu Bei is stronger than Zhuge Liang, but in fact, I think otherwise, Liu Bei is mentally retarded, especially he has been carried away by hatred, and it is useless to give him 8 million, and although Zhuge Liang has few soldiers, this person is resourceful, and he can top an army of 300,000, so on these two roads, I think the weak is Liu Bei, and the strong is Zhuge Liang, so I ask the general to shoulder the heavy burden, please sit on Chaisang in person, block Zhuge Liang, and the sailor, naturally there is Lu Su Governor to resist, and you can have no worries. β
Lu Meng nodded: "Although my skills are not as good as Zhuge Liang, but I just seek stability, I will give him a closed door, and he will consume it in Chaisang, which can resist for a while." β
"Liu Bei is aggressive, and the general is willing to resist."
Lu Meng nodded with satisfaction: "It's up to you to go, I'm relieved." But who will resist Lu Peng? β
"Lu Peng is mainly in the army, you can transfer Huang Gaihan, who is familiar with land warfare, to go over to the two old generals, as long as they can't hold out, resist step by step, and leave us time to solve the other two ways, I can turn around and deal with Lu Peng."
"That's a good idea, how many people do you need?"
Lu Xun calculated: "You deal with Zhuge Liang, it is not good if there are fewer people, and the two old generals of Han Dang and Huang Gai deal with Lu Peng, although Lu Peng is only 40,000 horses, but he is the most ferocious one, so they can't have fewer soldiers, so they will give him 100,000." β
"In this way, you can only take 50,000 horses to deal with Liu Bei's 200,000, can this work?"
Lu Xun said proudly, I am stationed in Xiangfan, and 50,000 horses are enough to deal with Liu Bei. β
Lu Meng did not despise Lu Xun's wild words at all, because he had already understood Lu Xun's ability, and he said yes, he would definitely do. So he asked, "Do you need anything else?" β
Lu Xun said: "I ask the lord to send Mr. Zhuge Jin to envoy Liu Bei, and put forward a humble peace condition to slow down Liu Bei's military heart." β
Lu Meng laughed: "You want to repeat the old trick again, but it is a good way, I will write long live and follow it." β
Lu Meng's strategy was urgently teleported to Jianye.
And Sun Quan in Jianye is really anxious now, Sun Quan only now feels that he impulsively ascended the throne and became emperor, which can be regarded as a hornet's nest, but it is forced by the situation, and there is no way.
Now it's broken, Liu Bei is carrying the banner of righteousness, Yu Gong and Sun Quan have formed a mortal enmity with both public and private, even if there are any difficulties in the future, it is impossible to unite again.
And his good brother Lu Peng also lost his face, and he also carried the banner of righteousness and attacked himself.
In fact, Sun Quan has an indifferent attitude towards Liu Bei's attack on himself, the reason is that he and Liu Bei have fought a few times, that thing is a wreck, although Zhuge Liang helps, but there are too many pig teammates, even if Zhuge Liang has the ability to reach the sky, it is difficult to scream.
And now, he not only has a naval army, but after seizing Jingzhou, he immediately reorganized the soldiers of Jingzhou and sent his own right-hand man, Huang Gaihan, as the commander of the marine army.
After nearly a year of rectification, Sun Quan now thinks that the two fists of his navy and army are very hard, and it doesn't take much effort to smash Liu Bei to death with two fists.
It was supposed to be a good situation, but LΓΌ Peng jumped out and began to attack Jingzhou from the west.
In fact, everyone in the world can see it, and they all know in their hearts that whether it is Liu Bei's righteous revenge or Lu Peng's righteous army, the only purpose of the two of them is Jingzhou, a land of ointment.
But Sun Quan must not abandon Jingzhou, because this is also related to its roots, only with Jingzhou, can it compete with other heroes on land.
Therefore, the three parties will fight in Jingzhou in the future, and no one will give in to each other.
But he has the confidence to fight Liu Bei and Sun Quan, but he is really not confident enough to fight Lu Peng, because Lu Peng's troops are too strong, so strong that people dare not look at them directly, and the Wenchen fierce generals under him are all extraordinary.
But things have come to this point, not to mention the pressure, even if the pressure is too high, you must bear it.
So, after receiving Lu Meng's report, he did not hesitate to send Zhuge Jin to envoy Liu Bei, showing a groveling and regretful look.
Then he ordered Zhang Zhao to envoy Cao Wei, recognizing Cao Wei's occupation of his two states and counties, in exchange for a tacit understanding between the two sides, Cao Wei blocked Lu Peng's attacking Lu Peng's water army for himself, to ensure the safety of his back, and he blocked Zhuge Liang who went south for him, to keep his back safe, now the two of them are difficult brothers, and there is no need to talk about any interests, so the union of the two people will come naturally.
It's not that Sun Quan doesn't want to drive Cao Wei away anymore, but he really has no choice.
