Hefei, Xu Chu Daying.

"Kill halfway and bite the gold!" Xu Chu read the military report sent by Xu Shu and said something casually.

Xi Zhong has long been accustomed to Xu Chu coming to a strange sentence from time to time, and he doesn't ask who Cheng Yanjin is, seeing Xu Chu's relaxed expression, he pondered his intentions and said with a smile: "Lord, but what interesting things happened to Yuan Zhi's side?" ”

Xu Chu said, "Well, Qing will know when you see it." ”

Xi Zhong took the military newspaper and read it with Xu Yi and others.

Xi Zhong laughed and said: "It turned out that he killed a son who was captured by Sun halfway." ”

However, Xu Shu said in the military newspaper: Guan Yu ambushed the reinforcements outside the city and killed the enemy general Zhang; Li Tongjiang Xia was in white to kill the enemy, and the battle situation under Dingding City was the first to be the result of this battle. Draw and Chen Gong are also brave in battle, each with its own success, followed by the second. It was a good situation, but in one fell swoop to annihilate the main force of Shouchun to defend the city, and set the tone for the next siege battle, but unexpectedly killed three horsemen halfway, calling himself 'Sun Jian's son Ce', 'Wujun Sun He', 'Runan Lu Fan', led more than 100 guests to help Shouchun soldiers escape back to the city. At the end of the military report, Xu Shu deliberately added a sentence: Li Wenda went to fight Sun Ce with a short halberd, fought more than ten times, Sun Ce's capital as an overlord, and he was defeated, leaving a message: 'Ce is helping Shouchun today, purely to save the life of his friend, and he has to be the enemy of Zhaowu Hou', so he sent Sun Heli to send Li Tong back.

Xu Shu said that the posture of the overlord, when he saw Sun Ce's bravery, he thought of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.

After reading the military report, a thought arose in the hearts of everyone in the tent - giving birth to a son should be like Sun Ce.

Looking at this battle alone, at least we can see that Sun Ce's fierce eagle has completely inherited Sun Jian, and he will be a brave and unparalleled general in the future.

Xu Chu said with some pity: "It's a pity that Guan Yunchang didn't come in time, otherwise there would be a good show to watch." "Throughout the Three Kingdoms, Guan Yu and Sun Ce have never fought each other in the battle array, which is a pity.

But Xu Chu just sighed, he had more important things to do.

Yesterday, Wenshu County reported that after Cai Yong sent an envoy to Nanchang, Lu Kang's eldest son Lu Jun came with him on the return trip, and he had just arrived the day before yesterday, and now he should be on the way to Hefei.

Xu Chu pondered: "The eldest son of Duke Lu, I met him when I first arrived in Shu County. Cai Gong said that Lu Yuzhang hesitated in his heart at this time, and his hesitation was to sit back and watch the battle between my Lujiang and Jiujiang and Danyang counties, fortunately Lu Duwei was safe and sound in the Hefei battle, otherwise the soldiers and horses of Yuzhang County at this time may have crossed Peng Ze and threatened the south of our county. ”

Xi Zhong said: "Lu Yuzhang has been famous for a long time, not because of anger, but his son's visit is indeed an opportunity for the lord." If the Lu clan of Wu County is willing to take a stand, Lu Duwei will no longer support Fang Bo, and within half a month, Jiujiang County will be in the hands of the lord. ”

"I'm afraid that Lu Yuzhang's conditions are too harsh...... Let's wait until Lu Jun arrives in Hefei, as long as he doesn't propose that I hand over all political affairs to the Yangzhou scholars, he will mention the other conditions. Xu Chu paced out of the account and said to Xu Yi who followed behind him: "Don't talk about this, Ji Cai, do the counties in Yangzhou have other important information?" ”

When Xu Yi heard this, he thought for a while, and then said: "Zhou Qiao of Wu County, privately led troops into Danyang County, and was carefully explored in the two places; Zu Lang, a native of Lingyang, Danyang County, was appointed by Zhou Taiming as the governor of southern Danyang. The chief bookkeeper Xie Zhen sent a letter, saying that the people in the clan who were county officials in Huiji wrote that the northern governor of Huiji, Zhu Fu, the brother of Zhu Hao, was sent to the county court, hoping to lead the troops north. ”

Xu Chu stopped, looked up at the sky, and said softly: "I hope what Lu Jun brought will be good news." ”

On the march, Xu Chu was not afraid of the counties of Yangzhou, the problem was that if the grievances were too deep, even if he conquered the counties of Yangzhou with strong troops, there would be no five to ten years, and Yangzhou's vitality would not be restored. Take the whole day as a chessboard, the rich Jizhou, the populous Yanzhou, Yuzhou is the best choice, the slightly more remote Xuzhou, Qingzhou, there are good horses and elite soldiers, followed by Youzhou, the country of abundance, Yizhou, the country of abundance, Yangzhou in the east of the Jiangdong again, as far as the overall situation is concerned, the only benefit of Yangzhou is probably that in addition to the barbarians and bandits in various places, there has been no outbreak of huge yellow turbans, nor has it experienced the mutual attack between the counties.

The only advantage that Xu Chu didn't want to lose in his own hands, sent troops to Jiujiang, and then plotted against Danyang, also because if Chen Wen and Zhou Xin were there, it would be difficult for him to grasp the dominance of the state.

......

......

However, it was said that the state ruled Liyang, and the officials of the state government had different expressions after learning that Xu Chu had divided his troops to the north and Shouchun suffered a head defeat.

Xu Chu took Hefei with lightning speed, and it was only a long time, and the officials of the state capital had not recovered from it, but they heard that Xu Chu had sent troops from Hefei to the north of the county, and Shouchun was in a hurry.

With the support of the two armor soldiers, Chen Wen supported the sick body and came to the main seat with difficulty.

His condition was capricious, there were many bad times, few good times, and most of the time, Chen Wen entrusted things to Zhu Hao.

Although he has been lying on the couch all the time, his cronies will still gather important things and leave them for Chen Wen to read when he can look at things, so Chen Wen still knows about Xu Chu's visit to Fuzhou County, Hefei on a snowy night, and other things.

"Don't drive, Xu Chu...... Ahem, Xu Chu didn't attack Jun Chu and divided his troops to go north, what did he want? ”

Chen Wen's voice was inaudible, and after he finished speaking, the state official standing beside him hurriedly repeated it for him. After Zhu Hao heard it clearly, he got up and replied: "Back to Uncle Fang, after Hefei was taken down, our army was in a passive situation, and Xu Chu divided his troops to the north, and his intention was nothing more than two possibilities. ”

Glancing at Chen Wen, Zhu Hao continued: "The first possibility is that he wants to cooperate with Xu Shubu, who has just captured Xia Cai County, to take Shouchun and Xu Tuyinling; Another possibility is that he wants to attack Shouchun and force the county guard Liu Gong to fight with him. ”

Huiji Zhu's art of war heirloom, Zhu Hao's attainments in military strategy are always valued by Chen Wen, so Chen Wen's first question is not the soldier Cao Peng, nor is it anyone else.

Zhu Hao's words made everyone, including Chen Wen, deeply convinced, and someone asked: "May I not drive, how should I deal with it?" ”

Zhu Hao didn't answer, first turned his head to Sima Xu Gong, who had returned from Hefei County not long ago, and said, "Sima Xu fought with the Lujiang soldiers not long ago, I don't know what he thinks?" ”

Xu Gong said: "Xu Chu suddenly attacked, galloped on our county on a snowy night, and succeeded by luck, and now he wants to invade the northern counties of my county in the form of a tiger and wolf, which is too arrogant!" Saying that, Xu Gong became excited, pressed the sword and swirled in the hall, and said loudly: "Hefei City has not long fallen, Xu Chu is still unstable at the moment, no matter what his intention is to divide the army, Hefei must be empty at this time, as long as he agrees with Lu Duwei, Uncle Fang will give an order, Hefei will be lost and recovered, how easy it is!" ”

Zhu Hao approvingly: "Sima is really a warrior." "Salute to Chen Wen," Uncle Fang, what Xu Sima said is very true, the state government must not watch Xu Chu's division of troops. The county guard Liu Gong, at this time will also send people to the state capital to ask for help, we do not need to send troops to rescue, just Chen soldiers under the city of Hefei, the army to attack, the enemy will hear it, will return quickly; This Sun Bin 'besieged Wei to save Zhao's plan. ”

Chen Wen lowered his head and listened, squeezed out a little smile, and said, "Very good." "Ordered to help him take out a few letters from his arms, "Last year, Cao Mengde came to my Yangzhou to borrow soldiers, and I remembered the friendship with Zhou Taiming in previous years and borrowed a lot of soldiers for him...... Now Xu Chu has committed a crime in my state capital, and the teacher is unknown, and I will send letters to Yingchuan, Danyang, and Yuzhang respectively......"

After listening to Chen Wen's instructions intermittently, Zhu Hao was silent. Chen Wen is all good, but he is a little weak in his bones, and now there is a situation in Yangzhou where the counties are in their own ways, and he is to blame. Now that Xu Chu has come to the door, he is still thinking of using diplomatic methods to quell the war, isn't he sick and confused?
