Chapter 1332 Ming repairs the plank road and secretly crosses Chen Cang

What happened here in Jiaozhou naturally could not be concealed from the Wu Imperial Court, and the news reached Jianye, which shocked the whole country. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Wu Lord Sun Yu immediately summoned the left prime minister Lu Ji and the right prime minister Lu Yun Jin to meet and discuss countermeasures, although Lu Ji and Lu Yun have amazing talents, but for military affairs, they have not inherited the talent of their ancestors, so they really can't come up with any good solutions.

Although Jiaoguang Erzhou was thousands of miles away, it was in the rear of Wu, and once Jiaoguang Erzhou was lost, the Han army could go north by land, threatening the security of Jingzhou and Yangzhou.

As we all know, Wu relied on the Yangtze River to compete with the powerful northern regime, and now the Han army Chen soldiers in Jiangbei at the same time, roundabout to conquer Jiaoguang, and then from Jiaoguang north to Jingzhou, the Wu State to carry out a north-south attack.

More importantly, from Jiaoguang to the north, Wu is almost no danger to rely on, if the Han army is allowed to hit the south bank of the Yangtze River, then the so-called natural danger of the Yangtze River will also lose any meaning.

"Your Majesty, the Governor of Zhou is in command of the land and water army, and in matters of military affairs, you must ask the Governor of Zhou to decide." Lu Yun suggested to Sun Yan. Now Zhou is not in Jianye, after the pacification of the Xiling Cen An mutiny, Zhou Chu stayed in Xiling, presiding over the defense of Jingzhou, such a major military situation, naturally the participation of Zhou is indispensable.

Sun Yi nodded, now the only person in the court who can rely on is Zhou, after the battle of Xiling, Zhou's prestige in Wu is in full swing, and no one dares to deny Zhou's status as the successor of Lu Kang. When Lu Kang died of illness, he recommended Zhou to Sun Hao, the lord of Wu, which shows how keen Lu Kang's vision is, but it is a pity that Sun Hao is stupid and incompetent.

Although the internal worries are removed, but the external troubles are rising again, Sun Yan, who is determined to make a difference on the throne, is also worried at the moment, after all, his current opponent is not someone else, it is Liu Yin, who destroyed the powerful Jin State and defeated the brutal Wuhu, such an opponent is not something that he can deal with as a prince who has been imprisoned for more than ten years.

Sun Li's childhood was very tragic, when he was only five years old, his father Sun Xiu died of illness, and he was only thirty years old when he died. If Sun Xiu did not die, then Sun Xiu, as the prince, he would definitely be able to live a carefree life of brocade clothes and jade food, but after Sun Xiu's death, his cousin Sun Hao succeeded to the throne, and the fate of Sun Xiu's heirs is naturally conceivable.

Sun Hao's two elder brothers were poisoned by Sun Hao and became victims of imperial power, Sun Yi and his younger brother were young, so they escaped this catastrophe, but Sun Hao obviously did not completely rest assured, not only exiled them to Nanping in the barbaric and remote Jian'an County, but also sent people to strictly monitor them, and did not allow them to have any contact with outsiders.

In the fifteen years that Sun Hao was emperor, Sun Hao lived a life equivalent to that of a prisoner, like a frog trapped at the bottom of a well, and could only see the sky that looked up.

If it weren't for Zhou Chu's assassination of Sun Hao, Sun Yi may never have a chance to turn over, from this point of view, Sun Yi is grateful to Zhou, and now Zhou is in charge of the Wu State soldiers and horses, Sun Yan's trust and dependence on him is also irretrievable, after listening to Lu Yun's suggestion, Sun Yi immediately sent someone to Xiling to report Zhou.

Zhou is in Xiling, do not dare to slack off for a moment, Xiangyang and Yong'an direction have come to the Han army is assembling, intending to launch the news of the attack, which makes Zhou is like a great enemy, every day in Xiling defense line supervision, supplement and check leaks, and strive to improve the defense line as much as possible.

However, what makes Zhou Chu curious is that the Han army has been assembled for several months, but it has only heard the sound of the stairs and no one coming down, which makes Zhou Chu can't help but be suspicious, could it be that the Han army has other plans?

After he received an urgent report from Jiaozhou, he suddenly realized that Liu Yin played a trick of repairing the plank road and secretly crossing Chen Cang, deliberately Chen soldiers in Xiangyang Yong'an, attracting the attention of Wu Jun, and then Liu Yin attacked Jiaozhou by surprise and caught Wu by surprise.

The situation on the Jiaoguang side is very clear, but it is not that the Zhou side is not concerned about Jiaozhou and Guangzhou, but now the strength of Wu is limited, and the main army is concentrated on the Yangtze River, and the surrounding area is overstretched, so it is naturally unable to take care of the Jiaoguang side.

Liu Yin personally led the army to attack Jiaoguang, and Zhou had no doubt that Liu Yin would be able to take Jiaozhou and Guangzhou in a very short period of time.

At this time, Wu Lord Sun Yi sent an envoy to consult the enemy's strategy, Zhou thought for a long time, and replied: "The minister will be smeared with liver and brain, in order to report to Your Majesty." ā€

Liu Yin took Jiaoguang, and the next target of the attack must be Jingzhou, which has been lost and cannot be recovered, so Zhou naturally put his mind on defending Jingnan.

Guiyang is the largest county in Jingnan, and it is also the gateway for Jiaozhou to enter Jingzhou, and only by holding Guiyang can Jingzhou's safety be ensured.

Zhou thought about it and sent the left general Shen Ying to be the governor of Jingnan Guiyang Taishou, leading 30,000 troops to garrison Guiyang and block the way of the Han army's northward advance.

Before leaving, Zhou set up a banquet for Shen Ying, and at the banquet, Zhou personally toasted Shen Ying, and said earnestly: "General Shen, the gateway to Jingzhou will be handed over to the general, I hope the general can live up to His Majesty's expectations and live up to the expectations of Jiangdong's fathers." ā€

Shen Ying said impassionedly: "Governor Zhou can rest assured, Ying is in one day, Guiyang will be there, and he will never lose the hope of the governor." ā€

Shen Ying went south to Guiyang, and as soon as she arrived, the news came that Jiaoguang had lost and the three counties of Jingnan had fallen, and countless people who had fled the war poured into Guiyang from the south, and the situation in Guiyang was already on the verge of breaking out.

Shen Ying didn't expect the situation to change so quickly, in less than a month, the two states of Nuoda and the three counties of Jingnan would all fall, and an unprecedented sense of crisis shrouded Shen Ying's heart, he immediately ordered his subordinates to take over the city defense of Guiyang and make all preparations to deal with the enemy.

Guiyang County is located in the hinterland of Wu State, over the years, the main defense forces of Wu State have been concentrated on the Yangtze River defense line, and the defense of the southern front is extremely unimportant.

Fortunately, Shen Ying was equipped with 30,000 horses this time, and Shen Ying was still full of confidence in defending Guiyang.
