Chapter 563: The drums of war are about to sound

The corners of Sun Ce's mouth flashed with a smile, and Gong Jin didn't say anything about the Central Plains from beginning to end, which means that the Central Plains is a place that cannot be stayed for a long time. Although the land is densely populated and fertile, it is too harsh for the environment in his field. Even if it occupies the Central Plains, it has to face the peeps of the north, Guanzhong, Jing, and Yang.

And the Central Plains is likely to become a battlefield for many forces to fight, and those who are not the masters of great talent cannot gain a foothold in this dangerous place. Or there is a large rear, which can obtain a steady stream of troops, material and financial resources.

"Gong Jin is a great talent, these three strategies can calm the world, it seems that the third strategy is the most dangerous, but I think that the first is the most dangerous, and the third is relatively gentle. Under the wings of Yuan Gong, it seems that there are many constraints, but he can use the background of the Yuan family to strengthen himself. Although after the power is huge, Yuan Gong will do great things when he gets the jade seal of the country, and we will not be harmed by the righteousness. But in the eyes of some wealthy people, it must be the one who betrays the lord. It will be strongly resisted by them, which will affect the war in the two states of Xitunjing and Yi."

"And the southern land is vast, and it is too difficult to maintain the speed of expansion while appeasing the wealthy family."

"If you are not careful, you will fall into a point of no return"

Listening to these words, Zhou Yu nodded.

I didn't expect the lord to be able to keep his sanity in such a situation, and it seems that he is the right person.

"Judging from the influence and connections of the Sun clan in Jiangnan and Jingzhou, as long as the lord occupies these two states, he will definitely be able to send troops to Yizhou to persuade Jiaozhou at a very fast speed. It's just that after occupying Yizhou, how to appease the wealthy family of Shuzhong is indeed quite a headache."

Zhou Yu said with a little annoyance.

Sun Ce patted Zhou Yu on the shoulder.

"Don't think about it slowly, just take Jiangnan first. Then, as you said, this plan is more than half."

"No"

Zhou Yu replied.

When it comes to this, how can you not know? It seems that the lord also intends the first plan. This strategy is the best strategy, although it is full of obstacles.

Hurried footsteps came from behind, and a soldier ran quickly with a bamboo slip in his hand.

"Newspaper"

"Gangnam Express"

The voice sounded in his ears, and the soldier hurriedly handed over the bamboo slip in his hand.

The conversation between Zhou Yu and Sun Ce was interrupted, and at the same time, he looked back at the soldier in the direction from which the voice came.

Reach out and take the bamboo slip and slowly open it.

The handwriting appeared in front of him, Sun Ce's spirit was shocked, and his heart showed a deep sense of joy. Seeing this, the soldier hurriedly bowed and turned to walk in the direction he had been coming.

"Gongjin, great things come true"

Looking at the excited Sun Ce, Zhou Yu showed a suspicious gaze.

Sun Ce stretched out his hand and handed the bamboo slip in his hand to Zhou Yu and gestured to him.

Zhou Yu hurriedly watched, and when his gaze crossed the last handwriting, not only did he not have ecstasy, but his heart sank. I vaguely felt a hint of something wrong, but I couldn't say it.

"Jia thief is looking for his own death, why doesn't Gongjin like it and worry about it?"

"It's too easy"

Zhou Yu said with a little worry.

Instinctively suspicious of everything, he will always ask why such a thing could happen after getting the information. Is there an unusual reason behind this? Thus finding the traps hidden in the fog.

"Throughout the rise of Jia Thief, it can be said that he has been taking every step of the way, and he has never ventured once"

"Why do you do such a thing uncharacteristically now?"

Zhou Yu asked.

Sun Ce frowned and thought about it seriously.

"Could it be that my uncle is cheating me and Yuan Gong? But what good is it for him? ”

"Do you remember Yizhou?"

"Yizhou that was rumored not long ago?"

"Exactly"

"Does Gongjin think it's true at this time?"

"I'm more willing to believe that it's true than I believe it's true. Because Yizhou is fake, it is not good for us. It may even affect our judgment of the situation."

"Even if the matter in Yizhou is true, what good will it do to the wealthy family in Jiangnan? And now they have opened their bows, and how can the arrows that have left the strings turn back."

"That's impossible, because he can't convince the wealthy family of the Jiangnan family, and he won't settle with them one by one afterwards"

Sun Ce said in a firm tone.

Judging from the information obtained so far, it seems that the energy of Yangzhou and the state pastoral government has been restrained to the so-called Yizhou. I don't know if there is really Yizhou or fake Yizhou, I didn't respond to many things that happened in the four counties of Jiangnan in a timely manner, and the ambition of fighting the private soldiers of the wealthy families in Jiangnan has been clearly revealed.

Zhou Yu didn't know how to reply.

Being in a different position as the lord of Jiangnan, there is really nothing that can dispel the doubts of the wealthy family of Jiangnan at this time. After all, they have closed the shops in the counties, and the people's grievances cannot be hidden.

Moreover, he has the Sun family's intelligence network in his hands, and he is well aware of the changes in Jiangnan. It is precisely because I know too much that I feel more and more that Yangzhou and the state pastoral government are doing a big thing that no one knows.

It was too sluggish to react, sluggish to the point of doubt.

"All the private soldiers of the wealthy families in Jiangnan have been transferred overseas, and they have lost the ability to resist, if I don't wait for the troops, I'm afraid there will be no such good opportunity."

"Moreover, the soldiers and horses of Jiujiang have arrived at my Lujiang County Mansion on the order of Duke Yuan, no matter what the Jiangnan family is, we have to go south. Otherwise, Yuan Gong will be condemned, and I won't be able to wait for an explanation."

"The main force of the soldiers of Jiangnan gathered in Anhui County, Chaohu and Changhe Town, and the soldiers who stayed behind in Jianye were stationed in the four counties, and more than 10,000 soldiers from Shanyue went overseas. The line of Guangling to Jianye Port was exposed. As long as we take advantage of Xuzhou, we will be able to fight down."

At that time, the rear was lost, and the main force of Jiangnan stationed on the front line of Anhui County was in turmoil. Coupled with the echo of the wealthy families in Jiangnan, it can sweep Jiangnan in an instant"

"Then the Wujun Zhang, Zhu and uncles who have played a big role in this matter can sit in high positions and pave the way for future things."

Sun Ce said with a strong battle intent in his eyes.

Zhou Yu knew that he couldn't stop it, and he didn't need to stop it, after all, this battle was very important and almost related to how far the Sun family could go in the future. Taking Jiangnan as the foundation is the best choice, otherwise you can only try to Jingzhou and Guanzhong.

"Since the lord insisted on doing so, he secretly mobilized his descendants to enter the river from Guangling to Jianye City through Xuzhou."

"This battle is dangerous, so please ask the lord to appoint General Huang as the vanguard and lead the main force to go, and the lord only needs to lead a part of the soldiers and horses as backup."

"Why?"

"The situation in Jiangnan is too weird, if there is a change, you can leave calmly"

"Do you only bring the three thousand elites of the Sun family?"

"Too much is not helpful but increases the risk of exposure"

Zhou Yu said in a firm tone.

Sun Ce thought about it for a while, and then understood his worries, he had become the Taishou of Lujiang for a short time, once the army was mobilized, not to mention whether it would affect the war here, just to say that Lu Kang, who was stationed in Anhui County, was afraid that with his years of operation, he could get the news of his own troops overnight, and what he was facing at that time was the soldier of Jianye who had been waiting for a long time.

Thinking of this, a sense of urgency rose in his heart, and he turned around and walked towards the Zhou Pastoral Mansion with Zhou Yu.

The silent drums of war have sounded, and the next moment is the time to decide each other's fate.
