Zhuge Liang was right, his Zhishi did cause changes in the situation in the world, Zhou Yu was the most jealous of Zhuge Liang in Liu Bei's camp, and now seeing Zhuge Liang Zhishi, his only obstacle was gone, so he made up his mind to expand the armament war, and informed Sun Quan of the plan in detail.

Sun Quan was very happy when he got the news of Zhou Yu, and he immediately replied to Zhou Yu, asking Zhou Yu to let go of the expansion of armaments and war, and he would give Zhou Yu the most comprehensive support.

In order to show his determination, Sun Quan also sent his third brother Sun Yi to take charge of the preparation of grain and grass equipment, and ordered someone to transport these grain and grass equipment to Ba County.

Guan Yu can see Zhou Yu's actions in Bajun clearly, he knows that Zhou Yu is preparing for a new round of war, on the one hand, he is secretly looking forward to it, hoping to be disgraced through this battle, and at the same time, he also knows that Zhou Yu is resourceful and makes the best use of fire attacks, so he is secretly vigilant, and he must not repeat the mistakes of the past, and be burned by Zhou Yu again.

For this point, Liao Li also had a countermeasure in his heart, persuading Guan Yu to report the situation to Liu He in time, so that Liu He could send troops to cooperate, although Guan Yu did not believe that Liu He would offend his wife and brother Sun Quan because of Yizhou, but he could only inform Liu He of the news with the attitude of giving it a try.

However, he didn't expect that he would get Liu He's assurance soon after: as long as Zhou Yu dared to start a war, he would do his best to help Yizhou, and this time he would definitely let the other party return in vain, and he would never dare to raise the idea of invading Yizhou again.

"I really didn't expect Duke Qin to be so benevolent and righteous, for the survival of my Yizhou, he did not hesitate to start a war with his second uncle Sun Quan, please rest assured, as long as I Guan Yu is in one day, I will definitely guarantee that the relationship with you will remain unchanged."

This is what Guan Yu wrote in his letter to Liu He, but Guan Yu didn't know Liu He's real intentions in doing this.

In fact, before this, the reason why Liu He agreed to go to Jiangdong to marry and marry Sun Shangxiang was that he didn't want to let go of Sun Shangxiang, a big beauty, and at the same time had the idea of hitting Liu Bei, and then he really made Liu Bei desperate through this method, and finally died of depression, and then Liu He instructed Liao Li to provoke the relationship between Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu, forcing Zhuge Liang to submit his resignation, so that the only resourceful person in Yizhou who made him feel jealous was squeezed out, and he could unscrupulously design to deal with Yizhou.

However, if it is only to deal with Yizhou, he does not need to work so hard, his purpose this time is to drag Jiangdong and Yizhou into the abyss of war, and then take the opportunity to annex the forces of Sun Quan and Liu Chan, completely unify the south, and then come to Xuzhou with the power of thunder, completely pacifying the world.

After several years of development, Liu He has accumulated enough strength to complete the reunification by taking advantage of the trend.

Therefore, when Zhou Yu and Guan Yu started an arms race, Liu He openly said that he did not want any armed conflict between the two sides, otherwise he could only crusade against the "perpetrators".

However, at this time, Zhou Yu's eyes were full of the rich Chengdu Plain, and he turned a deaf ear to Liu He's words, Sun Quan also thought that Liu He was just formally supporting Liu Bei, and it was impossible to really do it, after all, he was Liu He's second brother, and the two sides could be regarded as in-laws no matter what, if Liu He took the lead, then his reputation would be damaged.

Of course, during this period, Sun Quan also sent Zhuge Jin to Chang'an for a trip, during which he specifically talked about the relationship between the two sides, and Liu He hinted at this that he was just morally helping a group of Yizhou, and would never really intervene in this matter.

Sun Quan became even more bold after receiving Liu He's hint, and ordered Zhou Yu to continue to expand his arms and war, and not to care about anything else.

After nearly a year of preparation, in the autumn and July of the ninth year of Jian'an of the Han Dynasty, Zhou Yu gathered an army of 100,000 and suddenly launched a fierce attack on the Jiangzhou city garrisoned by Guan Yu.

After nearly two years of truce, the war finally ignited again, and the world shook.

For the war of Wu, Guan Yu also made corresponding preparations, he ordered Zhang Song to be Meng Huo's military advisor, although this Zhang Song's intelligence is more than ten points lower than Lu Xun, but he has a well-informed ability, just a glance can remember the opponent's troop formation deployment, and is familiar with the geographical situation of each state and county, so in the war only by memory can find out the most vulnerable position of the other party, or lead the army to break through, or fight back, can do not be happy, and because of the familiar geography, so where there is an ambush can be reminded in time, so although the Shu army suffered a slight loss on the southern front, it was able to support it.

In the north, the situation is not so smooth, Zhou Yu is not only good at fire attack, but also has many other means, or digging tunnels, or using offensive tactics, or forcibly attacking the city, a ** attack made Guan Yu anxious, and even Liao Li, who boasted that his wisdom was no less than Zhou Yu, was a little tired to deal with.

Fortunately, Guan Yu prepared very well in advance, and listened to Liao Li's suggestion, deep ditches and high bases, avoiding battles, and personally guarding the city whenever the enemy attacked the city, resulting in Zhou Yu Although he attacked many times, he was never able to break through Jiangzhou City.

"Don't worry, although the other party is insisting, but the food in the city is not abundant, we only need to cut off its grain channel, we can frustrate its spirit, and if we persist for half a year, the other party will definitely not be able to support it."

Zhou Yu is worthy of being a contemporary wise man, and he can see through the crux of the problem at a glance, the scale of Jiangzhou City is not large, but there are a lot of troops deployed, so that the grain and grass are not rich enough, according to Zhou Yu's estimates, these grains and grasses will last for half a year at most, as long as the grain and grass are cut off, I believe that after half a year, even if the other party is an iron-clad army, it can only be scattered under the threat of lack of food.

Subsequently, Zhou Yu made a series of deployments on the grain and grass problem, and finally made a decisive attack, cut off the grain and grass of the Shu army, and burned the grain and grass transported by fire with a fire meter.

After the news came, there was a lot of shock in the city, morale was frustrated, and even Guan Yu was a little uneasy, although the grain and grass are still surplus now, enough to support half a year, but what about half a year later? You can't just sit back and wait for death?

"The hateful Zhou Yu actually cut off my grain and grass, and used such a despicable strategy, it's really hateful!" Guan Yu was so angry that he jumped to his feet, and he hated to go to the battlefield in person to fight a decisive battle with the other party, but he knew that the other party's forces had an absolute advantage, and if he led the army to attack, he would just fall into the other party's calculations, so there was no way at all now.

At this time, I saw Liao Li say slowly: "The prince doesn't have to be impatient, and let Zhou Yu be proud for a while, I believe that it won't be long before the Duke of Qin will send troops." ”

"Huh? Will Duke Qin really send troops? Guan Yu listened to Liao Li's words, and was very puzzled in his heart, or rather, he couldn't believe that Liu He would really send troops.

Even though his good impression of Liu He is increasing day by day, Guan Yu also knows that Liu He, as a prince, uses a lot of all kinds of tricks, although he says it well verbally, but he wants to count on sending troops to help him, which is really a bit extravagant.

However, now that Liao Li said this, he suddenly felt extremely surprised, and at the same time felt nervous, because he was afraid that Liao Li was joking with him, so he asked such a question.
