There was nothing to do all the way, and after Zhuge Song arrived in Changsha City and showed Liu Bei's military order, Fu Shiren happily handed over the command of the military horses in the city, and Liu Pan, the Taishou of Changsha, also temporarily handed over the handling of all government affairs to Ma Liang.

Of course, this does not mean that Zhuge Song can make everyone obey as long as he has Liu Bei's military order, because he found that when handing over the rights, whether it was Fu Shiren or Liu Pan, his eyes were on Ma Liang.

Only at this time did Zhuge Song fully understand why Kong Ming would let Ma Liang come with him, the Ma family was a big family in Jingzhou, Ma Liang's prestige and talent and the attention he received from Liu Bei were the guarantees that Zhuge Song could successfully deliver all military affairs in Changsha this time.

Although Zhuge Song was a little unwilling, this is also a fact, with his current age, being able to be the commander of the army already shows Liu Bei and Kong Ming's trust in him. It's just that Zhuge Song didn't understand that Kong Ming asked him to come to Changsha to set up defenses this time, would it really be as simple as Kong Ming said that as long as the Wu army came, he would defend the city for ten days? In the romance, when describing this paragraph, it is only said that Zhou Yu's strategy was recognized by Zhuge Liang, and the road to Shuzhong was blocked by the Jingzhou army, and he vomited blood and died after reading a letter from Kong Ming, and there was no description of the Wu army attacking Changsha at all.

Even if there was really a move by the Wu army to attack Changsha in history, then there was no Zhuge Song at that time, so who did Kong Ming send to Changsha to defend in history?

However, it is useless for Zhuge Song to entangle these now, and on the second day after he arrived in Changsha, after his 500 personal soldiers also entered the city one after another, the sentinel report reported from Luoxian Port that Zhou Yu personally led an army of 50,000 water and land, and had begun to drive out of Lukou in a mighty way, and the direction he ran to was not Jiangling, but to Luoxian Port first!

Luoxian Port is the only port from Changsha to Jiangling, and controlling Luoxian Port is equivalent to cutting off the connection between Nanjun and Changsha, once the Wu army lands from Luoxian Port to attack Changsha, Changsha will no longer be able to get any reinforcements from Nanjun.

Of course, under normal circumstances, even if the Wu army forcibly occupied Luoxian Port, Changsha could still get reinforcements from the other three counties in Jingnan. But "Miao" is "Miao" in Kong Ming actually transferred all the battleable soldiers of the four counties of Jingnan away, and now not only the three counties of Wuling, Guiyang, and Lingling cannot send reinforcements, but even Changsha County itself has only some old and weak soldiers left, so they can only close the city and defend themselves, and cannot send troops to strengthen the garrison of Luoxian Port and prevent the forcible occupation of the Wu army.

Of course, Zhuge Song was not worried, because at this time Kong Ming's first dispatch for Changsha played a role, although Luoxian Port now has only a few hundred defenders, but Zhuge Song thought that at this time, the 15,000 people led by Chen Zhi were also on the way to Luoxian, judging from the distance and departure time of the two sides, Chen Zhi must have arrived at Luoxian Port first.

Zhuge Song felt that with the protection of 15,000 people, there would definitely be no need to worry about the north of Changsha. To the west of Changsha is Dongting Lake, which has become Liu Beijun's inner lake, and to the south is Guiyang County, that is to say, the only threat now comes from the seven or eight Wu army camps and villages at the border in the mountains and forests west of Changsha, and it is difficult to say whether there are hundreds or tens of thousands of Wu soldiers.

In this regard, Zhuge Song ordered Fu Shiren to select some clever soldiers with local accents to pretend to be woodcutters who went into the mountains to chop wood, and divided them into more than a dozen ways to enter the Wu realm from different paths to investigate. However, it is disappointing that after a few days, none of the dozens of soldiers disguised as woodcutters have returned, and it is clear that they have all been captured by Wu Jun, who found them.

Ma Liang has been busy with the reinforcement of the city's defenses in the past few days, such as the position of the archers standing on the city, and the transportation channel for transporting arrows to the city and the rolling wood and thunder stones used to defend the city once the battle starts, etc., all of which he has arranged properly.

Zhuge Song is not good at defending the city, before in Hanshou, he saw that Xie Xian had a good way to defend the city, and the barbarians who lacked siege equipment could be said to be helpless in front of him, but at that time, the affairs of the county still depended on him, and the second was that Wuling County had entered a temporary period of peace, and Kong Ming did not say to Zhuge Song earlier that he wanted him to defend Changsha, otherwise Zhuge Song would have to take Xie Xian with him on this trip to Nanjun no matter what.

At this point, it is useless to think too much. Although the soldiers disguised as woodcutters had no news of the Wu army, it also proved from the side that there must be more than a few hundred Wu soldiers in the Wu army camp west of Changsha, and there must be good generals and major military operations that were about to be launched.

Otherwise, those soldiers who pretended to be woodcutters would definitely not be arrested, they were actually difficult to see the flaws in terms of their appearance and the identity of the locals, and the reason why none of them came back was because Wu Jun was a thief, and in the spirit of preferring to catch the wrong one and not let go, he arrested them all. Moreover, the people sent by Zhuge Song were divided into more than a dozen routes, and being able to catch all of them without falling behind was enough to prove that the dense forest west of Changsha was probably already full of Wu troops all over the mountains, otherwise their patrols would not be so strong.

Of course, while Zhuge Song was secretly amazed by Kong Ming's clever calculations in his heart, he also immediately held a military meeting in the mansion on defending the city. The previous preparations for defending the city have been basically ready in the past few days, and the reason why this meeting was held was just to tell him about his thoughts that the Wu army was indeed going to carry out a surprise attack on Changsha and the civilian generals below, so that everyone could get ready, and immediately let the whole city enter a state of first-level alert after the meeting.

Everyone listened to Zhuge Song's analysis that none of the "woodcutters" came back, and they all nodded secretly, it seems that Zhuge Song's analysis has been recognized by everyone. Before Zhuge Song and Ma Liang brought people into Changsha, they only told Kong Ming's concerns to Liu Pan, Fu Shiren and a few other people with relatively high status, although Liu Pan and Fu Shiren didn't say anything at the time, judging from their expressions, they mostly thought that Kong Ming was worrying about the sky, and Ma Liang was mostly responsible for the reinforcement and deployment of city defense.

It wasn't until tonight that they listened to Zhuge Song's analysis, and the two of them realized the seriousness of the matter, and the generals and generals in the hall also looked nervous one by one, and they all respected Zhuge Song's expression a lot, no longer like when he first came, he thought it was purely based on Kong Ming's relationship, but he smiled at Zhuge Song on his face, but he was more contemptuous in his heart.

In the past, Zhuge Song always felt that the commander of an army was the best, such as Liu Bei, even if his ability was not good, as long as he recruited capable and brave generals, natural soldiers would come to block the water and cover the earth.

But at this time, Zhuge Song was sitting in the decision-making position in the hall, but he deeply felt a huge pressure that made him breathless. He didn't know why Kong Ming would give him such a difficult task, although he had a brilliant record of outwitting the Wuxi barbarians in two battles, but he was still "young" after all, the first time he faced Shana, if it wasn't for Zheng Liang's approaching response, he almost collapsed, and the second time he was even more lucky, one relied on Ma Tan's strategy, and the other relied on Zheng Liang's inspiration, if it was replaced by Shamoke who threw Zheng Liang off his horse and fled at once, the current Wuling County would not necessarily be chaotic!

Changsha City, as the county town of a county, cannot be said to be unfortunate, and when Guan Gong took Changsha before, it did not cause any damage to the city wall at all. Judging from the fact that the Wu army set up seven or eight camps not far from the border shortly after Guan Yu took Changsha, it can be said that the Wu army's surprise attack on Changsha has been planned for a long time. It's rare that Zhou Yu is so calm, and he didn't use it until he failed to recruit a son-in-law for Wu Guotai and tried to put Liu Bei under house arrest in Wuzhong.

Zhuge Song knew that many strategies would either not be used, and if they were used, it would be a thunderous blow. He is the chief general in Changsha County at this time, although he may not be able to get the full convincing of the generals in the city just based on the analysis just now, but under the crisis, even if he feels that his pressure is really quite great, he still has to stand out in the face of the crisis.

Thinking of this, Zhuge Song forced out a smile, so he said to the generals under the hall easily: "You don't have to panic, since the military advisor has calculated that the Wu army will have a surprise attack, then there will be proper arrangements." Besides, the military advisor and I only agreed on a limit of ten days, according to reliable information, Zhou Yu has raised 50,000 troops and horses in Nanjun this time, and it is estimated that the Wu soldiers who can secretly attack Changsha will not exceed 10,000, and what he is plotting is nothing more than to attack Changsha without preparation. Now our side has been prepared, there are no less than 5,000 troops and horses in the city, not to mention that the Wu army only has 10,000, even if 50,000 come, it is a fool's dream to break through Changsha within ten days! ”

Zhuge Song saw that everyone nodded after hearing his words, and they all smiled again. Obviously, this rhetoric had an effect, so he continued to hit the railway while it was hot: "Besides, the lord has ordered General Chen to lead an army of 15,000 to Luoxian Port to station, Zhou Yu will inevitably go to Nanjun from other routes, and it will be enough for Luoxian Port to have 5,000 men and horses stationed at that time, even if the Wu army attacks Changsha tightly, we only need to order people to go to the direction of Luoxian to ask for help, and within a few days, the reinforcements from the direction of Luoxian will also arrive in advance!" ”

"I also think what General Zhuge said is very true, and after my intensified preparations these days, our city defense capability has also been greatly improved, so everyone should put their hearts in their stomachs, defend the city well, and wait for the reward of the lord after repelling the Wu army!" If the words that Zhuge Song said before could only make everyone feel a little reassured, then after Ma Liang's words, everyone in the hall could be regarded as completely smiling.

But just when Zhuge Song secretly sighed in his heart that his reputation and ability to be admired were far inferior to Ma Liang, suddenly a hurried and extremely panicked voice sounded outside the hall: "Report-"

A soldier panted and rushed into Zhuge Song's meeting hall, he was tired but anxious and said to Zhuge Song: "Report, report to Lord Zhuge that the Wu army has attacked Luoxian Port last night, and there are only a few hundred soldiers in charge of guarding the ships in the port. ”
