Chapter 195: Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain?
(One shift today, three shifts tomorrow to make up)
"Twilight Emergency!?"
Gan Ning's face changed, and he stood up from his position and said in a deep voice: "Come quickly!" ”
The soldier swallowed his saliva, straightened out his thoughts and said: "Previously, General Xu collected more than 2,000 family private soldiers in Haidu, but who knew that one of the families was obedient on the surface, but secretly colluded with the Jiangdong Army, and then the day before yesterday, General Xu was unprepared, so that the family private soldiers who had just been incorporated by Jinfan opened the city gate, and the 8,000 Jiangdong Army took advantage of the situation to enter the city, and General Xu was invincible, so he had to lead more than 1,000 remnants to retreat to Liling!" ”
"Shhhh
After listening to the soldier's report, many people in the tent gasped, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely depressing.
The family, for Jinfan, I am afraid that it will always be a difficult but difficult chasm that has to be faced.
The pros and cons are definitely an inseparable whole, and the more you get, the greater the relative price.
Huainan is just a small place, how did Jinfan become so powerful in just one year? Isn't it because they have reaped incalculable benefits from the Maison? But in this way, it also made them completely stand on the opposite side of the Han family.
Jinfan won the present, but it will inevitably make their future road more difficult, if there is a choice, Wang Chong does not want to do this, but there is no way, time does not wait for me, Sun Ce died, Jiangdong was turbulent, and then Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fought in Guandu, just had no time to look south, this is undoubtedly the best time for Jinfan to capture Jiangdong, once he missed this village, he was afraid that it would be difficult to have this store in the future, so no matter what, Wang Chong must take the risk of taking a gamble.
Adopting the family's private soldiers is just a means, not an end, Wang Chong did this just to minimize the hidden dangers inside, but the big problems that followed. Is it how Jinfan should arrange these family private soldiers? Divide, brainwashing, and making them wholeheartedly loyal to Jinfan from now on, which takes a long time to change subtly.
Hao Zhao was previously after reorganizing the family private soldiers in the three counties. Why didn't they stay in the city, but pushed them directly to the front? Isn't it just to prevent them from making some trouble in the rear?
In this regard, the young Xu Sheng was obviously not as experienced as Hao Zhao, if he could be more vigilant, he would send someone to keep an eye on these family private soldiers. The conspiracy of the Jiangdong Army could never succeed so easily.
Gan Ning waved his hand, signaled the soldiers to retreat, and said with a solemn expression: "Liling has few soldiers, and the city wall is not high, in the face of the strong attack of the eight thousand Jiangdong army, Wen Xiang is afraid that he will not be able to support it for too long, maybe by the time we arrive, Liling has already fallen!" ”
Wei Yan said: "What does the governor mean, we will directly return to help Chaisang?" ”
Gan Ning nodded, tilted his head and asked Lu Su, "Zijing." What do you think? ”
"That's right!" Lu Su paused and said, "But in order to force the Jiangdong Army to retreat, it may be feasible to encircle Wei and save Zhao!" ”
Gan Ning raised his eyebrows: "Oh? What can Zijing teach me? ”
Lu Su said: "It's very simple, when we return to Hukou, our army can be divided into two routes, one path goes straight back to Chaisang, and the other way passes through Poyang Lake to force Nanchang." ”
Wei Yanzan said: "The military advisor's plan is very clever, Sun Ben knows that Nanchang is in trouble, and he will definitely lead the troops to retreat, so far." Then the siege of Chaisang will be solved! ”
Gan Ning sneered: "If Sun Ben takes these 8,000 soldiers and horses to defend the city honestly, we are afraid that we will not be able to take Nanchang in the short term, but now...... Since he is looking for his own death, how can we not be able to fulfill it? ”
Speaking of which. Gan Ning said to Le Jin: "Wen Qian, when the time comes, I will give you 5,000 soldiers and horses, can you be sure to take Nanchang before Sun Ben returns?" ”
Le Jin said with a smile: "Don't worry, you only need to give the last general three days, and you can go down to Nanchang in one fell swoop!" ”
――――――――――――――――
Five years of Jian'an, May 21.
The two thousand Jinfan led by Ren Jiang successfully settled in Moling under the escort of Tai Shici. Lu Fan, who was originally in Hushu and was about to move, fell silent in an instant, five thousand against four thousand, as long as Ren Jiang and Zhu Chun did not make mistakes themselves, it was impossible for Lu Fan to recapture Moling before the follow-up reinforcements arrived.
At the end of the day, a drizzle fell from the sky, and a hazy mist rose over the earth, obscuring people's vision.
At the head of Shicheng City, Wang Chong's eyes looked coldly at the Jiangdong soldiers who were densely shrouded in rain and mist outside the city, and his brows couldn't help but twist into a rope.
Siege in such weather? What the hell was Zhou Yu thinking? If he's not crazy, he definitely has another purpose.
At this time, Wang Chong missed the strategists around him a little, because he racked his brains and couldn't guess Zhou Yu's intentions at all.
"Lord, something is wrong!" Hao Zhao reminded in a low voice in Wang Chong's ear.
Wang Chong nodded thoughtfully: "Bodao, do you see something?" ”
Hao Zhao took a deep breath and said with a solemn face: "Rainy days are not suitable for attacking the city, with Zhou Yu's wisdom, it will not be such a child's play, so in the eyes of the last general, Zhou Yu must have other plans today!" ”
"What does Bo Dao know, what is Zhou Yu's picture?"
"This ......" Hao Zhao had a look of embarrassment on his face, lowered his head and said, "The last general is ashamed!" ”
Wang Chong didn't care much about this, after all, Zhou Yu was full of wisdom, and Hao Zhao couldn't judge that it was just human nature.
"That's it!" After a while, Wang Chong seemed to have figured out something, smiled slightly, and his frowning brows gradually eased, "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, I want to see what tricks Zhou Yu can play this time!" ”
At this time, Tai Shi Ci on the side opened his mouth and said: "Lord, the last general has seen some clues!" ”
"Oh?" Wang Chong was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Ziyi, come quickly!" ”
Tai Shi Ci pointed to the outside of the city and said, "Can the lord see how many Jiangdong soldiers and horses there are outside the city?" ”
"Huh?" Hearing Tai Shici say this, Wang Chong's heart sank, and he immediately realized that something was wrong, the drizzle was blurry at the moment, and the visibility was extremely low, although there seemed to be Jiangdong soldiers and horses everywhere outside, but if you asked him to say a specific number, he couldn't say anything.
"What Ziyi means is that Zhou Yu just wants to use the rain to confuse us this time, but in fact, outside the city, there are not as many soldiers and horses as we imagined?" Seeing Tai Shi Ci nodding, Wang Chong said again, "In this way, Zhou Yu's real purpose is definitely not our Stone City, so what does he want to do?" Could it be that he wanted to attack Ziyang? ”
Hao Zhao said: "It's not impossible, after all, the existence of the military division makes the Jiangdong army like a man, if they don't pull it out first, how can they attack Shicheng with all their might?" ”
Wang Chong's face suddenly became extremely embarrassed: "What a Zhou Gongjin, what a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, if Ziyang learns that the Jiangdong army is besieging Shicheng, he will definitely send troops to help, and then the Jiangdong army will be able to win a big victory whether it is in an ambush in the middle of the road, or a direct attack on the empty camp, or even a two-pronged approach!" ”
Wang Chong slapped the city wall fiercely as he spoke, and cursed: "Damn my God, it's really not the right time for this rain to fall!" (To be continued.) )
