Jiujiang Taishou Zhou Qiao and Danyang Taishou Zhou Xin are both supporters of Yuan Shao, whether Sun Ce takes Jiujiang east or crosses the river to attack Danyang, they are undoubtedly enemies of Yuan Shao. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Sun Ce was a little hesitant for a while, the benefits of taking Danyang are obvious, Danyang is convenient for recruiting troops, Danyang soldiers are famous all over the world, if Danyang is occupied, Sun Ce can recruit troops on the spot, train an army with strong combat effectiveness, and do not need to let Guangling send reinforcements because of the expansion of the territory.

But in this way, he was against Yuan Shao, although Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are not in harmony now, but they are not fighting against each other openly, and if he sends troops to attack Danyang, he must Guangling Su Chen's army drag Jiujiang's reinforcements, so that his relationship with Su Chen will be exposed.

In the end, after consulting Su Chen, Sun Ce decided to attack Yuzhang County, Yuzhang County did not have much power here, although Huang Zu of Jiangxia coveted Yuzhang County, he never dared to attack.

To take Yuzhang, the most important thing is not Sun Ce, but Zhou Yu's water division, the water division is the main force in this battle, as long as the water army of Yuzhang is broken, Yuzhang County will be gone.

Su Chen ordered the Qingzhou Navy Division to assist Sun Ce in attacking Jiangdong, in fact, he asked Zhou Yu to assist Sun Ce, Sun Ce reported his idea of taking Yuzhang first to Su Chen, Su Chen felt that this was also a good insertion point after reading it, so he agreed to Sun Ce's idea, and asked Zhou Yu to obey Sun Ce's dispatch.

After Sun Ce got the support of the lord, he immediately found Zhou Yu and asked: "Gong Jin, the lord has agreed that I will take Yu Zhang first, this battle water division is the main force, Gong Jin, how many soldiers are there in the Qingzhou water division under your command now?" How many ships? Can you defeat Yuzhang's navy? ”

"Bo Fu is too underestimated to me, after several years of development, the Qingzhou Navy Division has more than 20,000 soldiers, two five-story building ships, five three-story building ships, more than ten large ships, and countless other small boats. Speaking of this, Zhou Yu suddenly said: "Actually, what I'm really worried about is not Yuzhang's army, but Jiangxia's army. ”

"Jiang Xia?" When Sun Ce heard this, he immediately reacted, "You mean Liu Biao will interfere?" ”

"Yes, Liu Biao can be said to have been plotting against Jiangdong for a long time, if it weren't for Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, Liu Biao would have been afraid that Huang Zu would have crossed the river to capture Yuzhang County, and he had scruples before, but we have broken the balance of Yangzhou, and Liu Biao will definitely let Huang Zu intervene."

"That's a nuisance!" Sun Ce also had to consider Huang Zu's threat, Huang Zu had a grudge against him to kill his father, when Cai Mao led people to snipe Sun Jian, this Huang Zu did not make a small contribution, although he was eager for revenge, but he was not carried away, with their current situation, if they sent troops, it would be very unfavorable to them, and even the Lujiang River that had been occupied could be lost.

"I think of a way that doesn't work." Zhou Yu suddenly said: "Bo Fu, you now nominally belong to Yuan Shu's forces, why don't you borrow Yuan Shu's power?" ”

"Excuse me?"

"Yes!"

"How do I borrow it?"

Hearing this, Zhou Yu laughed and said, "What does Yuan Shu need most now?" ”

"Prestige, of course!" Sun Ce didn't have to think about it to know that Yuan Shu had obtained the jade seal, and according to Su Chen's analysis of Yuan Shu before, Sun Ce knew that Yuan Shu had already moved his mind to become the emperor, and at this time, what he needed most was to influence his prestige.

"So, you write a letter to Yuan Shu and ask him to put pressure on Liu Biao in Nanyang, and then let's take advantage of the situation to seize Yuzhang, in this way, it can be regarded as increasing Yuan Shu's strength, I think Yuan Shu will definitely not refuse."

Sun Ce thought about it, Zhou Yu's method might really be a try, so he immediately wrote a letter to Yuan Shu, in which he was very respectful to Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu was very satisfied with it, and immediately wrote back to Sun Ce, saying that he would put pressure on Liu Biao in Nanyang.

Yuan Shu is not really just to help Sun Ce, Liu Pan guarded Nanyang, with outstanding achievements, and has been sent to Changsha by Liu Biao, there are often barbarian invasions in Jingnan, which makes the people miserable, so Liu Biaocai sent Liu Pan to Jingnan to guard.

Liu Pan's departure, Nanyang is not so impregnable, Yuan Shu urgently needs a victory to consolidate his position and increase his prestige, so he really has the heart to take Nanyang.

Getting the news that Yuan Shu was about to send troops to Nanyang, Sun Ce put down most of his heart, in the case of using troops in the north, although Huang Zu said that it was possible to cause chaos, he would never dare to send troops on a large scale, and the situation of fighting in the north and south was by no means what Liu Biao wanted to see.

"Bo Fu, after solving the threat of Huang Zu, it is time for us to cross the river."

"Okay, in this battle, Gong Jin is the main force, I will shout for Gong Jin!"

Zhou Yu's sailor stopped in Anhui County, and could cross the river at any time, he summoned Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai, took the boat upstairs, and went directly to Chaisang.

As soon as the sailor got close to Chaisang, he was discovered by Yuzhang's navy, and the two sides started a melee on the river.

The two sides fought on the river for half a day, and finally ended in the defeat of the Yuzhang naval army, and Zhou Yu led the Qingzhou naval division to successfully land in Chaisang.

After landing, Zhou Yu was not busy marching, but camped in Chaisang, laid a solid foundation, and waited for Sun Ce's reinforcements to arrive.

With Zhou Yu's military strength, the water war is acceptable, but if it is a siege of the city, it will be overstretched, Yuzhang's naval army has been defeated, most of the warships were captured by the Qingzhou sailors, Zhou Yu rectified the warships, and went to the other side to transport Sun Ce's reinforcements ashore.

In addition to leaving Xu Sheng and Lu Dai to stay in Lujiang, the rest of the army all landed in Chaisang, and 80,000 troops went straight to Nanchang with great momentum, attacking the city along the way, and successively conquered Liling and Haidu, two larger county towns.

The defenders in Nanchang City heard that the little overlord Sun Ce crossed the river, and many people already had a fear of war, the reputation of the little overlord Sun Ce is not false, it was killed with a knife and a shot, and the Yuzhang Taishou here is just a man who spends money to buy officials, how can he be the opponent of the little overlord.

After Sun Ce's army arrived in Nanchang, the county guard had already fled with his belongings, leaving only an empty city, and the defenders in the city heard that the county guard had fled, and finally surrendered the city under the leadership of a general.

Sun Cebing took Yuzhang bloodlessly, and then sent an official letter with the big seal of the county guard, asking Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai to quickly collect the surrounding counties, post a notice to the people, and announce that Yuzhang had changed hands.

Yuzhang changed hands in a hurry, but he scared Wang Lang enough, the little overlord was menacing, Wang Lang knew that he was not the opponent of the little overlord, and immediately wrote to Zhou Xin for help.

Of course, Zhou Xin didn't want to see Sun Ce continue to grow and develop, so he sent 20,000 elite Danyang soldiers to assist Wang Lang in guarding Huiji.

In fact, after Sun Ce captured Yuzhang, the advance stopped, and Zhou Yu was busy establishing a sailor base in Chaisang, and if he wanted to guard against Huang Zu in Jiangxia, a well-trained sailor was the most reliable guarantee.
