Chapter 368: Stirring Up the Storm
Since the warrior who went to the camp was decided to be served by Guan Ping, Zhuge Liang immediately called Guan Ping to his side, and he didn't know what to tell him in his ear.
Obviously, he did not go to attack the camp at this time, but to wait for Zhuge Liang to secretly complete the deployment of the army, and this time is also very important, after all, the soldiers in front of the Jiangdong formation are all meticulously staring at Zhuge Liang's troops, and they accidentally saw the transfer of the main army, and this matter is still difficult to succeed.
Just as Zhuge Liang nervously transferred his main army to a mountain forest, Sun Quan's military camp on the outskirts of Poyang County was already brightly lit.
Lu Meng and Lu Xun were born at an untimely time, originally thought that they were directly promoted by Sun Quan as the governor of Jiangdong at a young age as a cronie, and they would definitely bring Jiangdong into another new era, but in just a few years, they have already shattered their dreams. These successive failures have obviously polished away the arrogance of the two, and the two of them at this time can only help Sun Quan keep the last foundation of Jiangdong in their hearts, otherwise even if they are famous in history, they will definitely not have a good reputation.
"From this time on, you and I have been undressed, and we will protect this land of Poyang County, Zhuge Liang is scheming, and now if it is combined with the strength of the two of us, we still can't hold this Poyang County, how can we be worthy of the lord's full support!"
Although it was late at night at this time, Lu Meng and Lu Xun, who had just joined forces during the day, did not sleep, but were discussing strategies to break the enemy. Lu Mengyin was several years older than Lu Xun, so he expressed his position first.
Lu Xun naturally did not refute Lu Meng's proposal, because the two were on the defensive, so they did not want to take the lead in leading the army to attack, but wanted to rely on the solidity of their camp and the vigilance of the sergeant in and around the camp to strive for a beautiful counterattack.
Because when Zhuge Liang seized those surrounding counties before, he only faced a few defenders in the county, not how many times he had fought with the real Jiangdong elite, so the two of them still had great confidence in keeping Zhuge Liang out of Poyang this time.
And this expedition, the two relied on not only the defenders in this camp, before Lu Meng came here, in order to prevent Lu Su from picking peaches after falling into a bitter battle with Zhuge Liang, in a vacant land not far from Poyang, Jiangdong veteran Cheng Pu and Pan Zhang also led a large number of sergeants who had already been ambushed, and once they fell into the bitter battle with Zhuge Liang, they also had to do it to resist.
Zhuge Liang and Sun Quan, both sides are fully prepared, waiting for the other party to come, and both sides are a little afraid of Lu Su, at this time it is indeed a lot of Jingzhou soldiers and horses warships, waiting for news in Changsha County.
After Lu Su returned to Jiangling, according to Zhou Yu's strategy, he ordered Huang Gai to prepare a number of warships to gather on the banks of the Xiangshui River in Changsha, and sent a large number of fine works to the vicinity of Poyang, paying close attention to the situation of the confrontation between the two armies.
The tripartite forces gathered in Jiangdong, and their momentum was enough to show the importance of this battle, but unusually, Liu Feng, who had frequently traveled between Jingzhou and Yizhou, was still sitting firmly in Jingzhou Diaoyutai, and even Pang Tong, who was very familiar with the situation in Jingzhou, did not come to assist Lu Su.
Such an abnormal situation is naturally intentional by Liu Feng, and the only reason why Liu Feng is like this is Zhou Yu.
Liu Feng wanted to let Zhou Yu see his trust in him in this way, and he was determined to win, Lu Su went to Zhou Yu's seclusion to ask for advice, Zhou Yu knew that he couldn't hide it from Liu Feng, but he still gave Lu Su advice in such a situation, which was a friendly signal to Liu Feng, and it was this signal that made Liu Feng decide to continue to hand over the affairs of Jiangdong to Lu Su to deal with, regardless of whether Lu Su handled it properly or not, Liu Feng believed that after this matter would be the time for him to accept Zhou Yu.
Just as Lu Su turned a blind eye to the results, Zhou Yu is still a very much-needed talent for today's Liu Feng, and looking at China, it is almost unique.
Once there is Zhou Yu, Liu Feng can rest assured and boldly send two people, himself and Zhou Yu each lead the way, such a change is particularly important in the fight with a potential super opponent like Cao Zhi, although Zhao Yun and Ma Chao and others also have the ability to command the army, but after all, the director is to charge into battle, if it comes to wisdom and strategy, and Zhou Yu is more than a grade behind.
Therefore, exchanging such a battle for Zhou Yu is very worthwhile in Liu Feng's eyes, and because of this, he refused the persuasion of several people, did not leave for Jingzhou, and did not send a single soldier to it, only said that he had full authority to order Lu Su to deal with this matter, and his true purpose was only known by three or five people.
Zhou Yu, who was outside the whirlpool, but his heart was in the center of the whirlpool, did not enjoy himself in the hut after sending Lu Su away, but thought about the situation in Jiangdong every day, thinking about Lu Su's chances of winning against Zhuge Liang and Jiangdong.
At this time, in the thatched hut, there was no mess when Lu Su arrived, except for some things necessary for life, all of them were packed into several heavy boxes, just because after sending Lu Su away, Zhou Yu said bluntly to Xiao Qiao that the leisurely life of the two of them was about to end here......
Outside Poyang County, like the calm before the storm, there was no wind and grass for two days, and finally, on the third day when Zhuge Liang appointed Guan Ping to be the warrior, a stormy night, he pulled the trigger of the Battle of Poyang, Guan Ping, the young man who followed Guan Yu most of the time, began the most important performance in his life.
