Chapter 381: Liu Feng's Advantage
Lingling Governance is Quanling City.
Liu Du, the county guard, has been stationed in this city for several years. is similar to Jin Xuan's situation, Liu Du is also a person who has a heart for Cao Ying.
But it is also a prince, and they will not only obey the orders of Jing Chu Cai Mao and Kuai Yue. Compared with Jin Xuan, Liu Du's surname is stronger.
When Sima Yi and Jin Xuan's letter arrived at Quanling.
Liu Du was in the hall, discussing with Zhang Su. Liu Du has a Chinese face, a burly figure, and looks very majestic.
Zhang Su is thirty-two years old, and he is a rare talent in the entire Lingling. has outstanding ability and is Liu Du's right-hand man.
"Hmph, Cao Gong's captain? Who is this Sima Yi? It can't be the Golden Spinner's pretend, right? After reading the letter, Liu Du snorted coldly, with a bit of mockery on his face.
"Returning to the lord, that Sima Yi is very famous in the north, he is the son of Sima Fang, and the eight brothers are known as Bada. If Jin Xuan wants to fake, I am afraid that he will only fake a more famous and capable person. Won't choose Sima Yi. Zhang Su also looked at the paperwork, shook his head and said, his expression solemn.
"That is, to attack Changsha?" Liu Du's expression changed, and he said a little unhappily.
Although Liu Du asked Cao, he also wanted to have any disputes with Liu Feng.
"Attack. Anyway, Liu Feng's power is already strong, and sooner or later he will crusade against the remaining three counties of Jingnan, and at this moment, Sima Yi is pulling the strings, and the three counties will attack Liu Feng together, which is also an opportunity. Zhang Su said.
"Also, the three counties together have 30,000 troops, and I heard that the barbarian army also has 50,000 horses. That adds up to 80,000. This quality aside, this number sounds scary enough. Hehe, maybe Liu Feng capsized in the gutter. Liu Du was right to think about it, and smiled. Greedily said: "If you can destroy Liu Feng in a daze, and make a great contribution to Cao Gonggong, you will definitely be a marquis." ”
As soon as these words came out, Liu Du's attitude changed. From prudence to covetousness.
Eighty thousand troops, hehe.
…………………….
The seat of Guiyang County is Chenxian County.
With a population of tens of thousands, it is Zhao Fan's city. Zhao Fan's situation is similar to that of Jin Xuan, Liu Du and others, who also worked as a Taishou for a few years, and took advantage of Liu Biao's illness to die and became a prince of the reading power.
However, there are differences. Because the Zhao family is a prominent family in Guiyang County, compared with Jin Xuan, Liu Du, and Zhao Fan's foundation is slightly thicker.
However, Zhao Fan's surname is more cowardly than the previous two.
When Jin Xuan and Sima Yi's letter came, Zhao Fan was a little hesitant. hurriedly summoned the master bookkeeper, Deng Fei.
Deng Fei is Zhao Fan's confidant, born as a small official, and was promoted by Zhao Fan step by step to become the chief bookkeeper. Won the trust of Zhao Fan.
"My lord, this is a great achievement. It's a shame not to accept it. After reading Sima Yi and Jin Xuan's letters, Deng Fei said excitedly.
That look is no different from being beaten with chicken blood.
"Will Liu Feng be defeated?" Zhao Fan's eyes lit up at first, and then he hesitated.
"Defeat is inevitable. I've heard of that Sima Yi, who is a well-known figure. He commands these armies, and Liu Feng will definitely be defeated. Seeing Zhao Fan's hesitation, Deng Fei hurriedly said.
That look, like there is no broth when you go late.
Deng Fei's instigation made Zhao Fan's expression a little firmer. But there was still some hesitation.
"Prepare an army of 8,000 and go to Hanshou to rendezvous." Zhao Fan finally ordered.
The three counties of Jingnan each have 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers and horses. And Guiyang Zhao Fan's army was the majority, with 16,000 soldiers and horses. This time, Zhao Fan was only ready to send half of the troops.
Deng Fei was a little helpless, this letter was obviously written, every time he sent 10,000 troops, he combined 30,000 troops. But Zhao Fan sent 8,000 troops. This surname.
Deng Fei shook his head in his heart, but he also knew that it was not easy to get Zhao Fan to send troops, and it was not good to be too persecuted. Therefore, I had to say helplessly: "No." ”
………….
Changsha County, in the city of Xiangxiang.
Liu Feng was also informed by the news that Sha Mohun, the king of Wuxi, sent 50,000 troops, first attacking Wuling, but then, bypassing Wuling and rushing straight to Changsha.
Along with this, there are also traces of Sima Yi.
And, Wuling County Shou Jin Xuan led 10,000 soldiers to Hanshou. Guiyang and Lingling are all ready to move.
The first moment he saw the news, Liu Feng sneered.
An army of 80,000 is enough to look up to him. However, Liu Feng didn't think that Sima Yi's strength was just a little bit.
Sima Yi is actually not terrible, but what is terrible is Cao Ying. The power that Sima Yi can use, in addition to the three counties, should also be Xu Huang in the north.
Xu Huang in the north is the second general stationed in Wancheng after Cao Ren, with 120,000 elite soldiers.
Combined, these forces have nearly 100,000 troops.
As for Liu Feng's own army, there are 15,000 people in Jiujiang Huang Zhong, including Cao Ren's troops in the past, Huang Zu's troops, with foundation, heritage, plus Huang Zhong's training, which can be called elite. But this one, we have to guard against Koto.
Pang unified the department, 13,000 people. It can also be called elite. This part is to guard Jiangxia and guard against Xu Huang's army in the north.
Ganning's navy has 6,000 people, and this one is only a pure navy. Liu Feng did not want to devote himself to a ground war.
The rest also have Chen Da's 1,000 broken army and the second battalion of the divine arm. It's the best of the best. The 5,000 Changsha garrisons led by Huo Jun had a relatively short training time for the army.
It's just ordinary.
In addition, there were 15,000 troops such as Xu Shu, Wei Yan, and Li Yan, as well as 10,000 cavalry of Zhao Yun. In these two parts, there is no recruitment of personnel at all.
At present, they are recruiting in Jiangxia and Jiujiang. Not useful.
In this way, Liu Feng's army can only use 40,000 people. There is a huge difference with the army of nearly 100,000 people held by Sima Yi.
But Liu Feng also has Liu Feng's advantages.
At this moment, in the study, Liu Feng, Xu Zheng, Zhang Dao, Huo Jun, and Chen Da are all there.
In the face of nearly 100,000 troops, this news was committed. Except for Liu Feng, Chen Da's expression was quite calm, Xu Zheng, Zhang Dao, and Huo Jun's faces were a little unnatural.
Especially Xu Zheng, who lacks the experience of big wars. His face was already covered with cold sweat.
"Lord, now the Second Route Army, the **10,000 army, should we shrink our defenses and give up Changsha for the time being. Retreat to Jiangxia to garrison? Xu Zheng raised his fists.
In Xu Zheng's opinion, this Changsha is really unbearable. It adds up to only 6,000 troops, while the enemy has **0,000 people.
"More than that. It depends on the situation, Xu Huang in the north will also send troops. That's a headache, 120,000 elite soldiers, elite soldiers in the north. Liu Feng smiled slightly.
Xu Zheng's face turned black when he heard this, and a feeling of dizziness struck. It's not just ** thousand, there are really 100,000.
It's just that Xu Zheng wonders, why can Liu Feng be so calm? Is there a good way to break the enemy? Xu Zheng is not a brainless person, and he instantly guessed the reason for Liu Feng's calmness.
And recalling Liu Feng's many achievements, killing Huang Zu, worshiping Zhou Yu, and capturing Cao Ren, which thing is not dangerous and abnormal, but Liu Feng has crossed over, and he has made his power bigger and bigger.
By now, it has become a force alongside Jiangdong. Although the enemy has an army of 100,000, but there are five commanders, and there are other races, each with a ghost, compared to Zhou Yu, it is much more difficult to deal with.
Thinking about it like this, Xu Zheng's heart became relaxed.
In fact, it is not as easy as Xu Zheng thought, but Liu Feng is indeed very confident and has advantages.
First of all, Xu Huang's side, if Xu Huang sent troops, he would definitely follow Cao Ren's old path and attack Jiangxia's several cities in the north of the Yangtze River.
If it was placed in the past, 13,000 people from the Pang Tong Department had to be ordered to be stationed in the north to stop Xu Huang. But now it's not Cao Ren's time.
Liu Feng had planned, and personally decided on the place and built a big city. and ordered Xiang Lang to run the solid city. At that time, it was named "solid", which was easy to be strong and firm. It's for today's preparation.
In fact, strictly speaking, it is not a big city, but only a medium city. But the walls were tall and thick. It's hard to be breached.
Therefore, as long as Deng Ai of the Pang Tong Department is allowed to lead 3,000 people into Gucheng, he can hold on for five months. In the extra five months, there were 10,000 troops left in the Iraqi Pang Tong Department. There are many, many things that can be done.
For example, the soldiers came to Hanshou and confronted the 30,000 troops of the three counties.
In addition to this advantage, Liu Feng also has an advantage, that is, Huang Zhong of Jiujiang County. This was originally set up to deal with Jiangdong Sun Quan.
And now Jiangdong still has to rely on Liu Feng's grain as a supply. It's a little bit more relaxing. With 15,000 people, Liu Feng can let Huang Zhong send 8,000 troops to sweep through Lingling and Guiyang two counties. After breaking the second county, he led the army north and fought with Pang Tong.
With Huang Zhong's ability, it is estimated that January and February will be enough. Another added effect is that the rear is broken, causing unrest in the front.
In this way, Xu Huang's army was pinned down by Deng Ai. The 30,000 troops of the three counties were pinned down by Pang Tong and Huang Zhong. Three ways of the army, two ways blocked.
And the army that Liu Feng had to face was actually only 50,000 troops of Sha Mohun, the king of Wuxi. However, the army in Linxiang City has 6,000 troops of Huo Jun and Chen Da.
Among them, Chen Da's divine arm, the second battalion of the broken army is responsible for the attack, and cannot participate in the defense. Therefore, in fact, there were only Huo Jun's five thousand defenders in Linxiang City.
Fifty thousand barbarians and five thousand defenders, extremely weak. But this weakness is precisely Liu Feng's biggest advantage.
In fact, other advantages are not advantages. Liu Feng believes that everything is in Sima Yi's calculations.
But only this last advantage, no one can guess. Unless it's a traverser like Liu Feng.
Huo Jun is a very capable person.
Historically, Huo Jun garrisoned Xiameng City with hundreds of people. And Liu Zhang sent his generals to attack the city with 10,000 people. In a year, he failed to capture Huo Jun's city.
Huo Jun is the best general in Shu to defend the city. In Liu Feng's opinion, the Wuxi barbarians are even worse than Liu Zhang's army.
Sima Yi would never have imagined that 50,000 people would not be able to attack Linxiang, which had only five or six thousand defenders. Sima Yi would never have imagined this.
After January and February, Huang Zhong conquered Lingling and Guiyang County. All of a sudden, the situation will become clear.
This time, Sima Yi lost very badly. Liu Feng clenched his fist fiercely. My heart is very happy.
