Yao Yu smiled dumbly: "Soldiers, treacherous." That Sima Rui thought the same thing. I don't think we'll use troops before the beginning of spring. After all, in the cold winter and wax moon, not to mention the war, it is extremely inconvenient to transport grain. However, I have instant noodles as logistics materials in Jingzhou, and the role of the people can be completely omitted. Before Sima Rui reacted, he defeated Luling County first. completely pressed Sima Rui to death in the three eastern counties. ”

Zu Ti thought for a while and said, "If you take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, you will suddenly attack and take Luling County will not be a problem." I'm afraid that after taking Luling County, Sima Rui will be more careful, and he won't be able to defend the general's army. ”

Yao Yu waved his hand: "Don't be afraid, fight for national strength, Jiangdong is not our opponent at all." The first time that Luling County was laid down was to deter Sima Rui. Second, it is to show the prestige of our court. Therefore, when making a move on Luling County, it is necessary to pay attention to a quick word, and Sima Rui cannot be given any time to react. Before the Chinese New Year, I hope to receive good news from you, my grandfather. ”

Zu Ti smiled: "Although the general and the army can rest assured, Zu Ti will not disgrace his life." ”

In this way, Zu Ti changed from insisting on the Northern Expedition to the Eastern Expedition.

In order to ensure that the news was not leaked out, Zu Ti rushed to Yuzhang alone. Except for his two sons, he didn't bring a single soldier.

Yao Yu's side also issued an edict in the name of Sima Ye, gathered 40,000 soldiers and horses, practiced every day, and put on the appearance of attacking Jiangdong.

Sure enough, Sima Rui's hidden in Jingzhou heard the news and sent it back, and everyone in Jiangdong breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Yao Yu is still honest, and if he says that he will move troops in the coming year, he will move troops in the next year.

For a while, everyone relaxed their vigilance.

Wang Dun is not so diligent in patrolling anymore.

···

At the beginning of December, Zu Ti rushed to Yuzhang and caught Lian Jun.

When the two met, they both clasped their hands and politely hugged their fists.

It's just that Lian Jun is indifferent and indifferent by nature, even if he knows that Yao Yu attaches great importance to Zu Li, he didn't say anything about patting Zu Li's ass.

No, he invited Zu Ti into the city guard mansion of Nanchang County, the seat of Yuzhang County, opened the map of the six counties in Jiangdong, and said: "The general army took Lujiang Yuzhang earlier, and the two places were like pincers, and Sima Rui was firmly locked in Jiangdong. Luling is located between the two places, and it is the only passage that Sima Rui can go west. Therefore, here in Luling County, Sima Rui arranged about 20,000 troops. If we attack suddenly, the first battle may catch the enemy by surprise. But once they come to their senses, there will be a steady stream of support. At that time, it will be difficult to succeed with the soldiers and horses of Yuzhang alone. ”

Lian Jun said, paused and said: "I was ordered by the general and the army to guard Yuzhang, and over the years, I haven't thought about pushing the front forward. But how to say it, the defender Tao Kan here is well defended. Especially after being educated by generals and soldiers before, patrolling the border is even stricter. ”

Zu Ti asked: "Is it possible to send a soldier and horse, for example, to let Shen Cheng, the right general of Lujiang County, send troops to Danyang to divert Sima Rui's attention." Will it be convenient for us? ”

Lian Jun shook his head: "No, in this way, with Tao Kan's ability, he will definitely be able to detect it." Moreover, if Lujiang County mobilizes troops, the effect of surprise will be gone. Losing the opportunity, it is not so easy to capture Luling again. Unless the generals and soldiers come in person, no one in the entire Jingzhou will be sure to eat Tao Kan. ”

When Zu Ti heard this, his heart suddenly came up to him who refused to admit defeat.

Yes, the generals and army commanders are powerful, but you say that no one in the entire Jingzhou eats Tao Kan steadily, that's too exaggerated, right?

Thinking like this, Zu Ti snorted: "Lian General Army, this has not yet been fought, you will grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige." Something doesn't fit, right? ”

Lian Jun tilted his head and glanced at Zu Ti: "Is there any good way for the ancestral general army?" ”

Zu Ti nodded: "There is an immature idea." ”

As he spoke, Zu Ti began to talk about his plan.

At the end, he also asked Lian Jun, "What do you think, what is this idea?" ”

Lian Jun pinched his chin: "There is a certain operability." In this case, the task of being in charge of frontal containment and going deep behind enemy lines will be entrusted to me. ”

Zu Ti waved his hands: "That's not good, it's not that I have a gun credit for you." The main thing is that if I appear on the front and be known by the Koto side, I will definitely be cautious and detect something. Therefore, it is better for you to contain it head-on. ”

Lian Jun stared at Zu Ti faintly, and seeing Zu Ti's serious attitude, he had no choice but to sigh: "Okay, since that's the case, then I'll be respectful and obey my fate." ”

Zu Ti was full of joy, and immediately began to prepare to go.

···

Three days later, the Jingzhou naval army on the border of Yuzhang intentionally or unintentionally approached Luling.

This attracted the attention of the Luling side, and Tao Kan's nephew Tao Huang led his troops and horses to the border to confront the Jingzhou naval army.

The soldiers and horses of the two sides scolded the street on the border line, saying that the other party was a thief, and that side said that the other party was a traitor.

They all had their own reasons, and in the end, Sima Yanghe, another subordinate under Lian Jun, directly commanded his soldiers and horses to launch a surprise attack, and fought a fierce battle with Tao Huang on the border line.

Relying on the strong and well-armed soldiers, Tao Huang's troops could not resist it, and the vitality of the soldiers and horses in the headquarters was greatly damaged.

Na Yang He, with Lian Jun's order, pursued non-stop, led the army to cross the border line to pursue Tao Huang, and chased straight to the area of Nanye County.

It was still Tao Kan's subordinate Sima who patrolled through this place, rescued Tao Huang in time, and the two sides joined forces to attack left and right outside Nanye County, defeating Yang He.

This time, it was Tao Huang's turn to go up, and after reorganizing the soldiers and horses, he pursued Yang He to the border between the two places.

Originally, it was just a scolding war between the two sides, but I didn't expect that I was scolding and scolding, and I started to get serious.

Lian Jun, who received the news, and Tao Kan led their armies to the confrontation at the same time.

"Lian Jun, Jiangdong and Jingzhou Qiu have not committed any crimes in the past few years, why did they beat me Luling."

On horseback, Tao Kan scolded.

Lian Jun snorted: "Tao Kan, it's clear that your nephew is not honest." Sneak attack on our patrol for no reason. Don't think that if the general is not there, I will be afraid of you. ”

"Bullshit general, that's just a traitor."

Tao Kan scolded, Jingzhou soldiers quit, and they clamored to beat Tao Kan.

Tao Kan didn't give it in vain, and immediately turned around and ordered: "All the soldiers will obey the order." From now on, if anyone dares to cross the border one step, there will be no mercy. ”

With a shout, Tao Kan's infantry drew their weapons one after another and waited for them.

Lian Jun looked back: "Everyone, I won't say much more." This gang of Jiangdong traitors insulted the generals and soldiers. We have received the favor of the generals and the army, and we have nothing to repay, can you give the generals and the army a good news. Let the generals and soldiers have a happy year? ”

All the soldiers raised their swords and shouted in unison: "Yes! ”
