Chapter 477: Changes in Jiangdong
In the letter written by Liu Feng himself, he showed the importance of Deng Ai, and asked Deng Ai to use his interests and expertise to map all the places north of Wancheng that could be ambushed and raided.
And this matter is exactly what Deng Ai has been doing when he was in Yingchuan, but at that time, he could only use his limited free time to measure the mountains and rivers of Yingchuan with his own feet, and now, since Liu Feng gave him this right and task, he can naturally mobilize some people from Ma Chao and Zhao Yun to assist him in dealing with this matter.
Although Deng Ai is still young, he is a teenager in the eyes of Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, and his stuttering problem has not been completely changed, and it is still not very smooth to speak in a hurry, but Liu Feng's order, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao naturally dare not slack off, as soon as Deng Ai presented the letter to them, they drew out a team of capable forces to hand over to Deng Ai, and encouraged Deng Ai, in the hope that he could accumulate experience and merits through this battle.
Zhao Yun and Ma Chao both know that Liu Feng has begun to cultivate the latest batch of talents in his hands of the new Han Dynasty, and Deng Ai is undoubtedly one of the leading figures, in Chengdu for two or three years, Deng Ai is almost inseparable from Xu Shu, just like Xu Shu's students, and this son is humble, polite, originally very appreciated by Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, plus he is not only very interested in strategy and military strategy, all kinds of weapons are also very skillful, although at this time compared with the famous generals in the Central Plains is still a lot worse, But with a little tempering, it is no longer a problem to lead troops to fight.
Regarding Liu Feng's practice of sending Deng Ai to draw a topographic map, Ma Chao and Zhao Yun did not have any intention of rejecting it, they had already heard that Cao Zhang would come with Sima Yi, and at such a big enemy, Liu Feng was naturally right to be cautious.
A wave has just flattened, and a wave has risen, because there are only three forces left in the Central Plains at this time, so the war has entered a white-hot level, although Liu Feng looks beautiful at this time, but because among the states and counties he owns, only Jingzhou and Yizhou can be used.
At this time, Jingzhou, where the capital is located, is the place of four wars, so once a war occurs, every battle is not to be lost for Liu Feng, especially as a defensive side, once defeated, the land of Jingzhou is almost certainly not guaranteed, Jingzhou is not guaranteed, although Yizhou is known as easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it is naturally difficult to support alone, which is why Cao Zhi is not good to be born on his vast land to recuperate, but always think about the reason for attacking Jingzhou, Jingzhou, Zhuge Liang, Liu Feng is destroyed will become a matter of time.
Jingzhou is the most important strategic place under the situation of the Central Plains today, and now it is tightly grasped by Liu Feng, which can be attacked and retreated, which makes Cao Zhi's heart very uncomfortable.
Since every battle is a matter of life and death for Liu Feng, then Liu Feng naturally wants to personally supervise the battle, and even go out in person, although this time he is facing Sima Yi and Cao Zhang, who are many times stronger than Yang Xiu, but Liu Feng has no fear in his heart, he knows that although for him, this battle is a battle that can only be won and not defeated, but in the same way, for Cao Zhi, this battle is also a battle that cannot be lost.
The reason why Cao Zhi has unprecedented confidence in this battle is that the person who relies on it is Sima Yi, who has been almost invincible since he inherited the Wei State, plus Cao Zhang, who exists like a totem on the border, but Sima Yi has never really encountered such a strong opponent as Liu Feng, and his test is also great, once he loses, all the reliance in Cao Zhi's heart will collapse in this battle, and it will be difficult for him to organize an effective attack on Liu Feng, and the offensive and defensive situation between him and Liu Feng, It will most likely be reversed after this battle......
Cao Zhi and Liu Feng are all making final preparations for this battle that can only be won and not defeated, and the time for Sima Yi to send troops is getting closer and closer, but at this time, whether it is Cao Zhi or Liu Feng, they all ignore one person, a person they think only dares to wait and see the changes and dare not take any action, this person is naturally Zhuge Liang, who is the person who is actually in charge of Jiangdong.
This year, Zhuge Liang, who was two years younger than Sima Yi, was also nearly forty years old, and he was the most young and strong, and Liu Chan, the only parent left by Liu Bei, was also thirteen or fourteen years old at this time, and under Zhuge Liang's careful teaching, he became a polite teenager.
Through the teaching of Liu Chan for more than ten years, Zhuge Liang found that he had no interest in dancing guns and sticks, but he was still very interested in those ancient books, compared with his father Liu Bei, Liu Chan was less cunning and scheming, but he had a lot of honest and honest feelings, although this is not what Zhuge Liang wanted him to become, but at least such Liu Chan, at this time in the Jiangdong land like an isolated island, or gradually won the respect of the old and new courtiers.
Since arriving in Jiangdong, whenever there are important matters to discuss, Zhuge Liang has begun to include Liu Chan in it, although Liu Chan does not say much when discussing these matters, but for the situation today, he has been able to know in his heart, which is naturally all the credit of Zhuge Liang.
On this day, Zhuge Liang summoned several close ministers to his side, and sitting on the main seat was still Liu Chan, the young master of Jiangdong, except for Guan Yu who did not come because of the confrontation with Jingzhou's naval army near Xiangshui, including Zhuge Liang's own brother Zhuge Jin and Zhang Fei, Guan Ping has been in power under Zhuge Liang in recent years.
Zhuge Liang summoned everyone to his front, instead of arranging it in the routine court, because on this day they were going to discuss two things that were very secret to Jiangdong at this time, and the ministers in the court, after all, had just been put together in recent years, and Zhuge Liang was not very sure about their actual loyalty.
"Yide, first tell everyone what you know." Seeing that all the people he had summoned had arrived, Zhuge Liang glanced at Zhang Fei, who was sitting nearby, and signaled.
Zhang Fei first got up and bowed to Liu Chan, then looked at everyone, and said loudly: "A few months ago, on the order of the military division, I sent a team of my Jiangdong elite sailors to Yizhou, which is across the sea from my Jiangdong, to inquire about Sun Quan and Lu Meng. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Fei deliberately paused, and together with Zhuge Liang, he glanced at the reactions of the ministers in front of him, after all, among these people, there were many former ministers of Sun Quan. Please pay attention to the latest chapters in the future
