Chapter 319: Hopeless
Jiangdong's already not very vast territory, in the eyes of Liu Feng and Pang Tong, has become a piece of cake, waiting for Zhuge Liang and Liu Feng to divide up.
Liu Feng originally thought that with the careful monitoring of Xiakou and Jiangdong under his command, Zhuge Liang would definitely not be able to hide it from him once he made a move, so that he could quietly keep an eye on Zhuge Liang, and when Zhuge Liang and Sun Quan fought on their backs, he would lead the soldiers and horses that had already been prepared to kill the generals, so that a good show with Huang Que in the back would also become.
But Liu Feng still underestimated Zhuge Liang's caution, even though Zhuge Liang would not have thought that Liu Feng would come to Jingzhou so soon because of this matter, but in order to guard against Pang Tong, he still used a skill that he was very good at but Pang Tong did not know, that is, to predict the future weather through celestial phenomena. Although the truth was more than three days later than Zhuge Liang's previous prediction, Zhuge Liang's persistence still succeeded.
Obviously, in this way, Liu Feng did not dare to attack rashly, without the return of eyeliner, everything is based on speculation, once Liu Feng misjudged Zhuge Liang's movements, it is very likely that Zhuge Liang will be the yellow finch lying in the back, so although Liu Feng guessed in his heart that Zhuge Liang would act today, he was not sure where Zhuge Liang would act, so he asked Pang Tong.
Obviously, for Zhuge Liang to think of this trick with the help of Tianshi, Pang Tong did not expect it at all, at this time, seeing Liu Feng have this question, he pondered for a while, and then slowly walked to the front of the map, pointed to the land of Jiangxia, and said in a deep voice: "The Jiangxia that Zhuge Liang currently occupies is not the real Jiangxia County, and before Sun Quan in order to prevent Zhuge Liang from encroaching on the Jiangxia land in his hands, he stationed a lot of elite soldiers on the riverbank dozens of miles outside Xiakou, but this time the situation in Jiangdong is turbulent, It is rumored that at least half of the defenders have been changed by Lu Xun to other places, and although Zhuge Liang calculated the time of the day, but the naval army under his command will not dare to go deep alone, so in my opinion, Zhuge Liang will most likely carry out operations around Jiangxia, if it goes well, he will definitely capture the rest of Jiangxia first, and then slowly expand, as for how far it can expand, it depends on the strength of Zhuge Liang's naval army, and how many sergeants his warship can accommodate. ”
Pang Tong's analysis coincides with Liu Feng, although Zhuge Liang is a bold person, but he is not reckless at all, so he will never risk losing troops in this stormy weather to go deep into the depths of Jiangdong alone, but will take Jiangxia as the center and gradually encroach on the territory of Jiangdong.
In this way, it can also greatly shorten the marching distance of Zhuge Liang's navy, reduce the losses of the navy caused by wind and waves, and once he succeeds, Sun Quan will definitely lag behind when he gets the news, and after the rain passes, I don't know how many Sun Quan's cities and counties will fall into Zhuge Liang's hands.
Liu Feng listened to Pang Tong's analysis, and immediately sighed a long sigh, he knew that this time Zhuge Liang's calculation was really slightly better, since he predicted this storm in advance, he would definitely be ready to sail in the storm, and Liu Feng was unprepared for this, if he followed this inference as he thought before, he would not only gain nothing because of the lag in information, but also lose his troops because of this storm. Although Liu Feng's army is also preparing not far from Jiangdong, there is still a long way to go to the vicinity of Jiangxia.
"This time, I'm afraid it's hard to get a piece of this fight......
Liu Feng has never been a person who is unwilling to admit defeat, and when he thought of a series of risks of rashly sending troops, he shook his head slightly and said in his mouth.
In his heart, he has already admitted the failure of this ambush, and it is really not Liu Feng's temperament to gamble with the life of the water army, he has always planned and then acted, even if he does not intervene in this matter this time, it will naturally not have any impact on him.
"Although the lord is relieved, it is said that it is not feasible to ship in the wind and rain, most of which is to prevent trouble, but if it is really needed, Zhuge Liang's navy can do it, why can't my Jingzhou navy do it? The lord just ordered, the three of us will lead my Jingzhou naval army to Jiangxia, if Zhuge Liang and Sun Quan are really at war with each other, we will wait for the lord to take the surrounding counties of Jiangxia! ”
Ling Tong is a young and vigorous person, after he and Huang Gai joined Liu Feng's command, they only practiced the naval army in Nanhai County every day, and they failed to participate in the war once, and they already had some meritorious service in their hearts.
Seeing this, Liu Feng hurriedly stepped forward to help Ling Tong up, and then said in front of him: "These elite sailors in my Jingzhou, the battles they will participate in in the future will definitely be greater than today, and the merits that you will establish in the future will definitely be more important than today, but since I have spent so much time in Jingzhou training these sailors, it is to spill blood on the battlefield, but it seems that today's plain will damage the sergeants under my command, and I Liu Feng will never do it!" ”
Liu Feng's words, let the sergeant and the sergeant in the hearts of a few people in the heart of the heart, Ling Tong's eyes were already a little moist, he saw a kind of brilliance in Liu Feng's body, he saw a kind of brilliance that he had never seen, sometimes, Liu Feng was cold-blooded like a machine, he could take the life of his enemy at any time, but when facing his own people, Liu Feng was extremely benevolent, and in just a few contacts, it was already a few contacts that made many people who had recently defected to Liu Feng, including Ling Tong, Lu Su and Huang Gai, identified, This is the person they will follow for the rest of their lives.
Sure enough, after Liu Feng's remarks, no one asked for orders to lead the navy to Jiangdong, but everyone was still unwilling to return in vain this time, and was silent for a long time, Zhao Yun said softly: "Why don't I wait to take advantage of Zhuge Liang's trip to Jiangdong and wave my troops to Xiangyang City." ”
Liu Feng raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and before he could speak, Pang Tong shook his head and said: "According to the lord's previous considerations, if Zhuge Liang really accepts Jiangxia and other counties, even if we win Xiangyang, it is not easy to defend, and Xiangyang is adjacent to Cao Cao's territory, and we and Cao Cao have not really grudged yet, so it is better to continue to hand over the land of the four wars to Zhuge Liang for safekeeping." ”
Zhao Yun originally wanted to rely on his familiarity with Xiangyang to help Liu Feng take it down easily, but after hearing Pang Tong's consideration, he also felt very reasonable, so he stopped speaking at the moment.
