Chapter 69: The Princes of the Eight Roads Respond, on the Eve of the Decisive Battle

In the second year of Jian'an, winter and October.

At the end of the court meeting, the Han Emperor Liu Xie issued an edict to the world, and the general Chu Feng conspired to rebel, and specially ordered Lu Bu, Yuan Shao, Sun Ce, Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao, Liu Bei and other princes of the eight routes to conquer Chu Feng.

Among them, it was rumored that Cao Cao led an army of 100,000 to personally conquer Chu Feng, and it was rumored in his army that he broke Shouchun on the tenth day, and the half moon was flat in the north of the river, and the momentum was huge for a while.

This is also the first time that Cao Cao has kidnapped the Han Emperor to mobilize troops on such a large scale, which has made the world look sideways, and all the princes have sent people to investigate.

In this war, the Central Plains forces may have to reshuffle their cards.

With the issuance of the edict, Xiaopei Liu Bei, Jizhou Yuan Shao, Jingzhou Liu Biao and other edicts did not send troops, only Jiangdong Sun Ce responded to the edict and claimed to have 100,000 soldiers, to Niu Zhu sent troops, and took Shouchun.

The two sides attacked, and countless people watched.

————

Jiujiang, Shouchun.

In the general's mansion, listening to the scout's report, the generals showed sadness on their faces and whispered one after another, some of them didn't know what to do with good expressions.

Chu Feng slowly put down the Chinese book in his hand, looked up at the generals with a calm expression, and said, "Hehe, Er and others are the main generals, this is panicking?" ”

"If that's the case, just tie me up and give it to Cao Mengde, so that you can have a future." Speaking of this, Chu Feng directly threw the Chinese book on the case and drank.

Everyone was sarcastic about Chu Feng's showdown, and they all bowed their heads in shame, but this time Sun Cao's coalition army was mighty, how could they not worry!

"Where is Cao Cao's army?" Chu Feng asked with a cold snort.

"My lord, Cao Jun has reached the north and south of Ru, and the junction with Chen State." Tanma hugging fist do.

"Cao Cao has just arrived and just entered the Runan territory? It has been more than ten days since this edict was issued, but Cao Mengde, who has always used troops like a god, is marching slowly this time? ”

Chu Feng picked up the thief document on the case and asked.

"Lord, Cao Cao is deceitful, he clearly wants our army to relax its vigilance, and after Sun Ce fights with our army in Yuzhang, he will march to the city in one fell swoop."

Yan Xiang explained urgently.

Chu Feng nodded in approval, but he clearly remembered that during this time in history, Cao Cao was bent on killing Zhang Xiu, and he didn't even care if Yuan Shu was the emperor.

If Yuan Shu hadn't taken the initiative to provoke him, Cao Cao wouldn't have touched him, but now that he is making such a big fanfare, it is inevitable that he will be suspicious.

"How many soldiers and horses have you ever found out about Cao's army?" Chu Fenghu asked.

"My lord, his military flag covers the sky and the sun, and the camp at night stretches for more than ten miles, not to mention tens of thousands of troops." Tanma explained.

"What about the other than the flag? Have you ever seen the scale of Cao's army's march? Chu Feng asked.

"It's... Lord, Cao Jun is wandering around the sentry horses, and it is difficult to get close, so he can only make a preliminary estimate. Tanma explained.

"Zhao Fan, you personally bring someone to investigate for me, be sure to find out the truth clearly." Chu Feng frowned slightly, and shouted in a deep voice.

"No!" Zhao Fan nodded.

His special operations battalion is equipped with telescopes, which are far easier to use than the naked eye.

Below, Lu Su frowned and asked curiously, "Lord, do you suspect that it is not Cao Cao?" ”

"There is this possibility, the time for the Son of Heaven to Xuchang is still short, and those who are loyal to the Han family are more like carp crossing the river, Cao Cao knows this, and still leads the army to the expedition openly, which is somewhat suspicious."

Chu Feng guessed in his heart.

Hearing Chu Feng say this, everyone fell into deep thought, as if there was some truth, Cao Cao was the male lord, Yanzhou was stolen before, how dare he commit it again this time.

"Lord, what about Jiangdong? Sun Ce learned that our army had captured Yuzhang, and he was bound to fight to the death, and at this moment, he was gathering heavy troops in Niuzhu, how should he deal with it? ”

Liu Ye asked in a deep voice.

"Ziyang, this is just Sun Ce's feint attack, his boat division is limited, how to cross the river and fight? Presumably he wanted to attack the east and the west and capture Yuzhang. ”

Lusu Cave Ruoguan Fire Road.

"Zijing is right, Sun Ce's purpose this time is to capture Yuzhang and the south bank of the Yangtze River, and crossing north from Niuzhu is just to attract the attention of our army!"

Chu Feng pinched his chin and said in a deep voice.

"But since he wants to focus on Yuzhang, it depends on who is faster."

"Summon, inform Chen Ji and Hua Xin, and let them defend Chaisang and Nanchang. In addition, he told Gan Ning to lead his subordinates to immediately go down the river and prepare to capture Niuzhu. ”

Chu Feng said in a gloomy voice.

"Lord, do you want to swap offense and defense with Sun Ce? Isn't that too risky? Lu Su frowned calmly, a little hurried.

This move can be said to be too bold, once the situation is not opened on the front, Yuzhang is likely to become a lone army, and Yuzhang has not been occupied for a long time, so how can he hold on?

"There is no such thing as an absolute victory."

"The art of war clouds, with the right fit, with the odd victory."

"This time, Sun Ce's army has limited warships, why don't our army attack its own strengths? Take advantage of the rapid march on the river to make Sun Ce's army exhausted! ”

"Our army can't take down Danyang Yuzhang danger, so why shouldn't Sun Cejun? If he fails to win Yuzhang in a short time, Danyang and even Wu County will also be in danger. ”

"Wu County is its base camp, and if you lose it, you will lose it, and it depends on who can hold it better."

Chu Feng asked loudly.

"This..."Lu Su groaned silently,

What Chu Feng said is not bad, it is that he is too stable and seeks stability, how can there be a perfect way to fight!

"My lord, the last general is willing to be the vanguard!" Ji Ling stepped out sideways, clenched his fists and shouted.

Chu Feng pondered slightly, compared to Sun Ce, he was more worried about Cao Cao, Cao Caojun couldn't leave Shouchun if he didn't find out, not to mention that he had no experience in fighting on the water, so he was tied up.

"Lu Su listened to the order, and you were the governor of the three armies, and you were the commander of the generals of all departments to capture Niuzhu." Chu Feng looked at Lu Sudao.

Lu Su is long and strategic, but he is also good at commanding the army, and he is rigorous in governing the army, so that he can lead his troops south to defend himself against the enemy.

Lu Su glanced at Chu Feng, solemnly clenched his fists and said, "Su takes orders!" ”

What is the concept of false Jieyue, that is, he has all the right to appoint and dismiss, and the right to kill, and he doesn't need to ask Chu Feng about it, what kind of trust is this?

The key is that he has no merit, and in this kind of war, Chu Feng can be said to be able to help him to take the position, and he can't let Chu Feng down no matter what.

"Ji Ling and Zhang Xun listen to the order, the two of you are the deputy governors of the left and right, Li Feng and Le are the generals, and they are all dispatched by Lu Su, if you violate the general's order, they will be dealt with by military law!"

Chu Feng looked at the generals under his command and said in a deep voice.

"No!" Everyone nodded.

Although he was unhappy in his heart, after all, Lu Su had neither prestige nor martial arts, so he was naturally dissatisfied with letting him serve as the governor of the three armies, but Chu Feng specially faked the festival to deter them.

"Yan Xiang, you go to Xuzhou again, tell Lu Bu that his lips are dead and his teeth are cold, and let him send troops to feint to attack Chen State." Chu Feng looked at Yan Xiang, he needed to prepare for the worst.

If Cao Cao really poured out, then Lu Bu's army would be very necessary.

"No!" Yan Xiang nodded.

"Alright, let's go down and prepare."

Chu Feng waved his hand, and Sun Ce handed it over to Lu Su, and then he needed to find out Cao Cao's movements, this person was far more threatening than Sun Ce.
