Chapter 1457: Sun Ce sends troops
Zhou Yu nodded, in fact, he had ideas about Yizhou, but he didn't expect Liu Zhang to see through Liu Biao's idea of seizing Yizhou, but he invited Liu Bei to Sichuan to fight against Lu Bu, he was really confused, otherwise after the Jiangdong Army captured Jingzhou, as long as he captured Yizhou again, he would have the foundation to dominate the world.
What makes Zhou Yu jealous the most is actually Lu Bu, from the princes after the joint attack on the state, Lu Bu showed a series of means can be seen that Lu Bu's strength is not as simple as it seems, I am afraid Cao Cao can also see that there is an inexplicable relationship between Zang Ba and Lu Bu, but Cao Cao does not dare to force Zang Ba too tightly, if Zang Ba takes refuge in Yuan Shao, it will be a big loss for Cao Cao, so he can only choose to believe in Zang Ba for the time being, and when the coalition forces attack the state, the Jinfan thieves are even more frequent. Attacking Jiangdong and Jingzhou, causing panic in Jiangdong and Jingzhou.
The cunning of the Jinfan thief, even Zhou Yu had to admire, once they encountered a large number of sailors, they would immediately flee, and if a small number of sailors were dispatched, it would be difficult to form a deterrent to the Jinfan thieves.
Zhou Yu was most suspicious of the relationship between the Jinfan thief and Lu Bu, when Lu Bu was ordered by Liu Biao to crusade against Yuan Shu, he had abducted Huang Zhong and Wei Yan from Jingzhou, and Gan Ning was once under Lu Bu's command, and it is said that he fought with Lu Bu's personal guard commander Dian Wei, such a fierce general, Lu Bu would not easily miss it.
Later things, even more revealed a lot of doubts, the Jiangdong army lost to Lu Bu's warship on the way for the Jinfan thieves to loot, it is incredible, why Gan Ning gave up the credit in hand, willing to go to the river to be a thief, for Jingzhou and Jiangdong's solicitation, it is even more deaf, if there is no problem with such characters, it is a strange thing, why does Zhou Yu not want to eliminate the Jinfan thief and sweep away the disaster for Jiangdong.
The naval army under the command of Lu Bu is weak, and Zhou Yu, the naval army of the Yu clan, has naturally heard of it, whether it is the combat experience of the warship or the naval army, there is a big gap compared with the Jiangdong army and the Jingzhou army.
Jiangdong army dispatched an army of 40,000 people, this is another big move after the joint princes attacked and annexed the state, Jiangdong, which has been silent for a long time, does not seem to want to miss the opportunity in this battle, and resolutely chose to shoot, and now Jingzhou is a piece of fat, when the controller of Jingzhou does not have enough strength to deter the enemy, everyone wants to go up and take a bite.
Jiangxia has always been the front of Jingzhou against the Jiangdong Army, but at this time Jiangxia was not guarded by fierce generals, although Zhang Yun was a general in the navy, but at this time Zhang Yun had not many generals of the navy to obey the order, after the betrayal of the Cai family, although Zhang Yun got out of this matter, he was afraid of Liu Bei.
Now Jiangxia's Taishou is Wang Cang, Wang Cang is a famous talent in Jingzhou, when he was in Chang'an, for Cai Yong's appreciation, took refuge in Jingzhou to attach Liu Biao, but Liu Biao is not reused for Wang Cang, in terms of governing the local army to lead the army, Wang Cang has a certain experience, after Liu Bei took control of the power of Jingzhou, Wang Cang took refuge in Liu Bei and became an official under Liu Bei.
After some conversation, Liu Bei greatly appreciated Wang Cang's knowledge, and recommended Wang Cang as Jiangxia Taishou, in fact, let Wang Cang become Jiangxia Taishou, not only to resist the Jiangdong Army, but also to contain Zhang Yun, and now Wang Cang is the main general of the Navy Army.
Jiangxia Taishou, the status in Jingzhou is not low, especially after the Jiangdong Army repeatedly invaded Jiangxia, Jiangxia Taishou has the power to mobilize the navy.
Wang Cang, who had not been reused in Jingzhou before, turned out to be Jiangxia Taishou, and although the generals in the navy were hindered by Liu Bei, they had to obey Wang Cang's orders, but they actually had deep doubts about Wang Cang's ability.
Wang Cang's statement in Jingzhou was not obvious before, but he was a capable person, after entering Jiangxia, he managed the army well, and gradually won the respect of the generals in the army, even Zhang Yun was more agreeable with Wang Cang.
The Jiangdong Army's dispatch was extremely hidden, and Jingzhou's eyes were focused on the battle in Xiangyang at this time, so that Sun Ce led the naval army to approach Jiangxia before the naval army found out, Wang Cang was extremely shocked when he learned the news of the arrival of the Jiangdong Army, Jingzhou had reached an alliance with Jiangdong before this, but he didn't expect the Jiangdong Army to suddenly make a move at such a critical time.
On the warship, Sun Ce saw that the Jingzhou army really did not have too much defense, his face was happy, and when he learned the news of the arrival of the Jiangdong army, the Jingzhou navy had been in chaos, how could there be any combat effectiveness at all, Sun Ce led 40,000 Jiangdong troops, rampage, but in half a day, the Jingzhou navy was defeated, and many sailors saw that the Jiangdong army was extremely strong, and directly chose to surrender.
In this battle, the reason why the Jiangdong Army won so easily was not only the surprise of the Jiangdong Army, but also had a lot to do with the defeat of the Jingzhou Navy after the previous defeat.
Moreover, Zhang Yun, a general who has been in charge of the navy for many years, cannot be reused, although Wang Cang is a man of letters, after all, he is a literati, and he has no deep understanding of the horror of the Jiangdong Army, which has caused the current situation to a certain extent.
After defeating the Jingzhou Naval Army, Sun Cezhi was complacent, and the fierce enemy in the past was now so vulnerable, which greatly boosted the arrogance of the Jiangdong Army.
Nearly 40,000 Jiangdong troops surrounded Jiangxia and attacked Jiangxia day and night.
Wang Cang's face was anxious, and then he remembered that there was Zhang Yun, a famous general in the Jingzhou army, in the city, and hurriedly ordered someone to invite Zhang Yun.
Although Zhang Yun said that he did not have military power in his hands, he still knew about the situation of the water army, when he learned that the 10,000 Jingzhou water army was broken for the Jiangdong army in only half a day, the chagrin in his heart can be imagined, in the Jingzhou water army, Zhang Yun has put in a lot of efforts, he and Cai Mao have made a lot of efforts to make the Jingzhou water army more and more powerful, and they will not fall behind in the battle against the Jiangdong army.
Unexpectedly, Liu Bei was only in charge of Jingzhou for only a year, and the former powerful Jingzhou Navy went into decline, and the water army supported Xiangyang, which is an incomprehensible thing in itself, and it can be seen that Liu Bei does not understand the water army in this matter, and just wants to control the Jingzhou water army, but ignores Jingzhou's most powerful enemy on the river, the Jiangdong Army.
Even when Zhuge Liang was in danger in Xiangyang, what he thought of was the support of the Jingzhou Naval Army.
The Jingzhou Navy suffered heavy losses on the battlefield, giving the Jiangdong Army an opportunity to take advantage of, if Zhang Yun was in charge of the Navy Army, he would definitely not agree to support Xiangyang's moves, the Navy Operations and the land operations are very different, it is precisely because of Zhuge Liang's orders that the most elite part of the Jingzhou Navy Army suffered heavy losses.
