Since Liu Xiu refused to accept Wu's request to surrender, Chu and Wu had already started a war.

In Jiangxia County, Tai Shici led an army to attack Lujiang, and to the south of Yuzhang County, Huang Zhong also sent troops north to attack.

For a time, both Lujiang and Yuzhang were attacked.

Zhou Yu is also powerful, and he is strictly guarded, and he can block the attack.

Qi 'Spring' County, in the base camp.

The Great Tent of the Chinese Army.

Liu Xian was reading the battle situation transmitted from the front line.

The 'engagement' between the two armies was not something that could be completed overnight, and Liu Xiu sat in the rear, paying attention to the battle situation transmitted back from the front line.

"Step, step!"

The sound of footsteps came back from outside the tent.

Deng Zhan walked in and saluted with his fists clenched.

Liu Xiu didn't raise his head and said, "What's the news?"

Deng Zhanyu reported: "Your Majesty, General Tai Shici has news coming back. ”

As he spoke, he handed over a letter to Liu Xiu's desk.

Liu Xiu opened the envelope and read it.

The content of the letter is that Tai Shici asked Liu Xiu to send a naval army to attack from the Yangtze River.

Now that the battle on the Lujiang River has begun, Tai Shi Ci mobilized Zhou Yu's army, and Huang Zhong has contained part of Zhou Yu's troops in the south, Tai Shi Ci hopes that Liu Xiu will send another naval army, set off along the river, and then break the situation.

Liu Xiu thought for a while and ordered: "Please Fa Zheng, Zhang Jaw and Ma Chao." ”

"Whoa!"

Deng Zhan went down to inform.

After a while, Fa Zheng, Zhang Jaw and Ma Chao entered the camp tent in turn.

Liu Xiu didn't go around the bend, and opened the 'door' to see the mountain: "I just received a message from Tai Shi Ci, and Tai Shi Ci thinks that the opportunity to break through the Lujiang River has arrived. Request to send another naval army, enter the Lujiang River along the river, and break through Zhou Yu's defense in one go. What do you think?"

Ma Chao's eyes lit up, and he said: "King, the front-line war has reached a critical time, and it is time to fight, and the last general is willing to be the vanguard." ”

Liu Xiu smiled, but did not reply.

Ma Chao took the initiative to ask for war, because he was eager to fight.

However, the current situation, whether it is suitable for a decisive battle will be discussed again.

Once Liu Xiu sends troops in, it will be a decisive battle.

Liu Xiu's gaze turned and fell on Fa Zheng.

Fa Zheng arched his hand and said: "My lord, I think that I would like to ask General Tai Shici to 'force' again and 'force' Zhou Yu's bottom line out." ”

"Now, the war has just begun. ”

"The two sides are fighting, we have invested Tai Shici's troops, and Zhou Yu has also invested a force. ”

"At this time, Tai Shici should be allowed to 'force' Zhou Yu, let Zhou Yu increase his troops again, and show all the bottom lines. ”

"On the contrary, in fact, Zhou Yu is also 'forced' the king to show all the bottom lines. ”

"Whoever 'shows' all his strength first loses first. ”

Fa Zheng's eyes were bright, and he said: "Now General Tai Shici is not unstoppable, but he has formed a stalemate with Zhou Yu. At this moment, it should be General Taishi who finds a way to break the situation, break Zhou Yu's deployment, and finally increase the troops, not the king. ”

"If the king increases his troops and exhausts his troops, Zhou Yu will be able to anticipate our bottom line. ”

Therefore, it is recommended that no troops be sent. ”

Fa Zheng's expression was solemn, his attitude was firm, and there was no hesitation.

Even though Tai Shi Ci on the front line had killed all the soldiers, as long as he suppressed Zhou Yu and let Zhou Yu put more and more soldiers into it, he would have won the victory.

The army led by Liu Xiu should not be moved lightly.

Zhang Jaw said: "The king, the minister also agrees with the analysis of the French military division. Whoever can hide more soldiers and who can hide until the end will be able to occupy the last opportunity. Now the situation is generally good, and to break the situation, it is also General Tai Shici's consideration, not the king's deployment of troops to break it. If the king transfers troops, but Zhou Yu has more means, things will be in trouble. ”

Ma Chao listened to Fa Zheng and Zhang Jaw's words, and his heart was cold.

Finished!

There is no chance to go out again.

Ma Chao shook his head, but he didn't argue.

He argued with Fa Zheng, it was really a 'chicken' egg touching a stone.

Liu Xiu listened to Fa Zheng and Zhang Jaw's analysis, and combined with his own considerations, he said: "This king understands, this king will write a letter to inform Tai Shici." ”

Fa Zheng smiled and said, "The king is wise!"

"Step, step!"

Suddenly, hurried footsteps sounded.

Deng Zhan hurriedly entered again, he saluted Liu Xiu, and then handed over a letter, saying, "King, this is a letter sent by the Lu family of Wu State. ”

The letters that Lu Xun forwarded were all 'handed over' to the people who were 'inserted' in Wu County by Jinyi Wei'an.

As soon as the letter came back, it was in Deng Zhan's hands.

Liu Xiu's eyes lit up, and he said, "Is there any news again?"

He took the letter, skimmed through it quickly, and couldn't help but laugh.

Fa Zheng arched his hand and said, "King, but there is good news?"

Liu Xiuyi stretched out his hand and handed out the letter, and after Fa Zheng took it, he quickly read it, and he was also 'excited'. He gave the letter to Zhang Jaw and Ma Chao again, and after everyone read it, they 'handed it over' to Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu said: "Since Lu Xun is going to deal a heavy blow to the Wei State, then we will wait and see." With Lu Xun's news, the war on our front line will be even more stable. As long as Lu Xun wins, Zhou Yu will inevitably be in a big 'chaos', and when the time comes, he will definitely be able to completely defeat Zhou Yu in one go. ”

Fa Zhengdao: "Lu Xun, this chess piece, the king buried it too well. ”

Liu Xiu said with a smile: "This is all Sun Ce's sin. ”

He opened his jaw and said: "This is the heavenly help of those who have attained the Tao, and the helplessness of those who have lost the Tao." Sun Quan even had internal problems, and he could not be defeated in this battle. ”

Liu Xiu bowed slightly, and set the next plan with Fa Zheng and Zhang Jaw.

He wrote a letter directly, informing Tai Shi Ci of the steady and steady attack, and it was not appropriate to fight a decisive battle immediately.

The news quickly spread to the front line and to Tai Shici.

After reading the letter, Tai Shici invited the military advisor Ma Yan.

Today's Ma Tan is handsome and handsome, and his aura is extraordinary, and he has an extraordinary bearing in the barracks all year round.

He entered the camp tent, saluted Tai Shici, and said, "General, has the king replied?"

Tai Shi Ci said: "The king refused to send troops, and let us fight steadily." ”

After hearing this, Ma Yan's brows furrowed slightly: "We and Zhou Yu have formed a stalemate in this battle, as long as the king sends an army, he can break the general, so that Zhou Yu can't withstand the attack." At that time, our army will be victorious, what will the king hesitate about?"

As a military advisor in the Fourth Army, Ma Jian can be described as young and ambitious.

Now that he is 'fighting' with Zhou Yu, Ma Jian can't wait to make meritorious contributions.

Tai Shi Ci said: "The king's letter explained that Zhou Yu was exhausted on the surface, but it is not yet known how. We need to further 'force' and let Zhou Yu exert all his strength. ”

When Ma Tan heard this, he immediately understood.

The reason why Liu Xiu did not send troops was because he thought that Zhou Yu had not yet reached the point of exhaustion.

Ma Tan thought for a while and said, "General, if you want to 'force' Zhou Yu, then the offensive needs to be further strengthened. ”

Tai Shi Ci said: "The king let us fight steadily. ”

Ma Yan said: "Of course, on the basis of steady and steady progress, we tried our best to 'force' Zhou Yu. Once Zhou Yutu saw the dagger, when there were no soldiers available, it was the time when the king sent troops. ”

Tai Shi Ci asked, "What is the strategy of the military advisor?"

Ma Tan smiled confidently, and immediately, he explained the detailed plan.

After listening to this, Tai Shici carefully deliberated about it, and also agreed with Ma Yan's strategy, and said: "The strategy of the military advisor is feasible, and next, we will do it." ”

The two made up their minds and set out to act.
