The carrier pigeon fell from the sky and flew to the Xuzhou Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, and some soldiers hurriedly untied the silk book from it and then ran into a room. After a while, he held the bamboo slip and ran quickly in the direction of the lobby.

Qingzhou was in turmoil, and the yellow turbans were ravaged, and Chong and Xu suffered from it. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, Jiangnan actually sent troops to attack Jiujiang and Lujiang, and Jingzhou took advantage of the situation to attack Runan. If it can't be properly handled, Xuzhou will inevitably face the crisis of being attacked by the enemy.

At that time, with only 40,000 troops, it was necessary to defend both the Qingzhou Yellow Turban and the threat to the west and south, and how to stand under the attack from three sides. Thinking of this, the soldier quickened.

"Newspaper"

"Qiyu State Pastor"

"Shouchun Urgent"

The soldier respectfully raised the bamboo slip in his hand above his head and bowed to the man on the main seat.

Tao Qian hurriedly stood up from his seat and walked quickly down. Reaching out and grabbing the bamboo slip, his eyes looked around at it. Then his brow furrowed, and he looked to the left and right.

Without saying a word, the soldier who had come to report turned and strode away.

"What is the problem that my lord has encountered?"

"Shouchun guard general Qiao Rui asked me Xuzhou to send troops to attack the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River, I don't know what you think?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was in an uproar, if the enemy currently divides his troops to attack Jiangnan, what will happen once the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is pressed? Is it just relying on the power of Yanzhou? It must be known that the two states belong to the camp of Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao respectively, if you still talk about it in detail, it would not be a joke to pin your hopes on the enemy.

But this is the meaning of Yuan Shu, how dare Xuzhou disobey? Once there is no Yuzhou as a backup, how can you gain a foothold in this dangerous Central Plains? Surrounded by Jiangnan, Yanzhou and Jizhou, the slightest movement will be in danger of destruction.

"Xuzhou, the land of the four wars, if you can listen to Yuan Yuzhou's words and go south to the south of the Yangtze River, it would be good to get the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River. It's terrible to be afraid that they have selfishness in their hearts, and once they follow secretly, the 30,000 troops in Jiangnan will come back to help and fight hard in Xuzhou. They reaped the profits of the fishermen, how would Xuzhou survive in the world at that time? ”

"The 30,000 soldiers and horses in the south of the Yangtze River, far away in Shouchun and Lujiang, were firmly dragged by Yuan Yuzhou's soldiers in two places here. Was Captain Chen too cautious? In the humble opinion of his subordinates, it is better to agree to this matter and go south to the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River. At that time, the state pastor sat in Xuzhou and held the south of the Yangtze River. With Jiangnan as the rear, a steady stream of grain, grass, soldiers and horses can be obtained, so even if Xuzhou is the place of the four wars, you can worry free."

One said.

Chen Deng frowned as he looked at the loud elk zhu.

"Is the moose driving too good? You must know that Yuzhang Jia Nian is not a stupid person, he sent troops to attack Lujiang and Jiujiang and didn't see me Xuzhou? Besides, don't think that Jingzhou's dispatch of troops is a coincidence? ”

"Jingzhou's hand is stretching long, can it reach my Xuzhou?"

"Although it can't be extended, it can send troops down the river to help the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River."

"What a good one down the river? Jingzhou sent 50,000 troops to attack Runan, and how many troops could be sent to aid Jiangnan? Could it be that where Jiaozhou is is a decoration? ”

Lu Zhu raised his voice and asked Chen Deng.

Regarding the matter of going south to the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River, Lu Zhu supported it in his heart, otherwise he would not openly argue with Chen Deng in the lobby.

His brows furrowed a little, and Chen Deng's tone was mixed with some anger.

"Mi Beijia really thinks that Jiangnan can't be garrisoned without soldiers?"

"What Captain Chen said is the four thousand Deng Dang troops stationed at the junction of Jiangnan and Jiaozhou?"

"Exactly"

"Judging from the current situation, does Jiangnan Dengdang's department dare to move? Once the aid is returned, Jiaozhou may have to pour into Jiangnan. After all, compared to Jingzhou, the emptiness in Jiangnan is the time for a large-scale expedition."

"If it weren't for Deng Dang's reinforcements, but for the Guo Dapang Department and the private army of the wealthy family in Jiangnan that had been pulled overseas from Yangzhou and the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion a few months ago, what would have happened to the mighty 20,000 soldiers and horses?"

"Even if they are overseas, do they still have the strength to return the aid? 20,000 soldiers and horses are huge, if Jia Yuzhang can really transfer these soldiers and horses back smoothly, why didn't he transfer them earlier? Captain Chen, you must be too cautious."

Lu Zhu said to Chen Deng.

Then he looked at Tao Qian, who was sitting on the main seat, and saluted respectfully.

"The Lord"

"The emptiness in Jiangnan is the time for us to attack on a large scale. As long as we rush before the main force in Jiangnan returns to help, cross the Yangtze River and occupy Jianye. can sweep the four counties and become the rear of my Xuzhou"

"At that time, with the power of Jiangnan, the southern Union of Jiaozhou was surrounded on three sides. Jingzhou will be carved up by the three states of Henan, Jiao, and Xu."

"Then go north to Qingzhou with a great victory, and the yellow turban of Qingzhou will be destroyed"

"Holding the three states of Qing, Xu, and Yang plus half of Jingzhou, the great cause will be successful"

Hearing these words, Chen Deng was secretly anxious.

hurriedly bowed to Tao Qian, who was sitting on the main seat, and said.

"Never"

"If you divide your troops to attack Jiangnan, you have Qingzhou Yellow Turbans on your side, and I don't know how many troops the lord can divide? And how much time will it take to go from the northern route to Guangling, and from Guangling to Jianye? For such a long time, didn't Jiangnan react at all? It must be known that not long ago, Yuan Yuzhou's subordinate Sun Ce's subordinates attacked Jianye"

"Besides, now that Jiujiang and Lujiang are at a disadvantage, the main force in Jiangnan must be extremely fast if they want to return to help, can our army resist the 30,000 army?"

"What's more, the soldiers of Guo Dapang's department and the wealthy families of the Jiangnan family are in the vast sea, and we can't judge whether this army will appear outside Jianye City. If not only the main force of Jiangnan comes to help, but this army also rushes to the Yangtze River, I am afraid that the troops divided by the lord will be in danger of being wiped out."

"The danger of Yuan Yuzhou is lifted, but the danger of my Xuzhou begins here"

"At that time, Jiangnan frequently attacked Guangling, how will Xuzhou respond? Whether Yuzhou sends troops to help or watches from the sidelines, I'm afraid it's worth scrutinizing."

Chen Deng's words rang out in his ears, and Tao Qian, who was sitting on the main seat, hesitated.

It is undeniable that what the two of them said makes sense, and it is really difficult for people to choose.

"The lord hesitates, he should make a quick decision"

"This?"

Seeing everyone's gaze, Tao Qian's hesitant expression became a little thicker. After weighing it in his heart, he gritted his teeth and made a choice. In the land of the four wars in Xuzhou, there must be a big rear, otherwise it will be broken one day sooner or later. If you can get Jiangnan, no matter how the situation in the Central Plains or the world changes, you will be able to stand tall.

"Where is Zang Ba?"

"In"

"With Zang Ba as the main general, Captain Chen as the military division, and 20,000 troops to attack Jianye"

"No"

A burly man replied loudly.

Chen Deng was in a hurry, but the main army ordered, so he could only bow down and take the order and follow Zang Ba to the outside.

Will Jia Yuzhang's wisdom not know the situation in Jiangnan? Will he have no back-hand? It's just that the lord thinks he is a military advisor, presumably out of this concern, otherwise why would it be so.
