Chapter Twenty-Seven: Sun Quan Will Strike

The Yellow Gate went straight to Chendu for thousands of miles and rescued the righteous people who started the incident. The Liang Iron Cavalry raided the Changshe and burned the grain and grass that Chendu Tuntian had sent to the front line of Dingling this year.

Cao Jun's main support in Yingchuan and Chenliu Tuntian was Cao Hong's 100,000 army. Previously, Yan Kuang had to send grain to the front line twice a year.

One is in autumn and September, when the wheat is harvested in May and June every year. The second time is in March, when corn and pickles are harvested in October each year.

Among them, Chen has a group, and Yingchuan also has a group. Therefore, the grain burned this time is equivalent to about a quarter of the grain that Cao's army transports to the front line every year.

Although it is not a pain in the bones, it has also had a great impact on the front-line grain and grass reserves. Therefore, when these two pieces of news were summarized to Cao Hong, he was suddenly shocked, anxious and angry, and hurriedly came to Zhao Yan to discuss.

Zhao Yan also had no choice but to suggest that Cao Hong continue to hold on, and at the same time ordered some troops left behind in the rear to clean up the mess and never start a decisive battle with Shen Chen.

For a while, the situation between the two sides suddenly reversed, and the Shen Chen army did not build fortifications before, coupled with the lack of cavalry, which led to the rear grain road being lightly mounted by Cao's army, and the grain and grass could not be transported.

But as his grain and grass were burned, Cao Hong could only retreat in the camp completely, sending people to mobilize Yingchuan's grain while sending people to the rear to escort the grain route, so as not to kill Shen Chen's cavalry again.

At the end of September, Cao Cao, who was far away in Guanzhong, also got the news that Shen Chen had sent troops to Henan. At that time, he was still wondering, why did Shen Chen suddenly send troops without warning?

It wasn't until a few days later that the news of Ji Ping's rebellion reached Guanzhong, and he realized that Ji Ping had already colluded with Shen Chen.

"Bang!" Chang'an Weiyang Palace. When Cao Cao learned of the situation, he was furious, slapped his clap on his head, and shouted: "These silverfish, if there were no widows, the Son of Heaven would have died a long time ago, and they could still bow to the Son of Heaven in Chenliu?" Now that the widow is in serious condition, he is going to rebel, and he is really guilty of not punishable, where is Xu Chu. ”

"King Wei." Xu Chu walked in from outside the door. Cao Cao shouted: "Let Xiahou Yuan immediately lead 20,000 people back to Henan." ”

"King Wei." Jiang Ji next to him immediately said: "Although Jiping rebelled, Chen still has more than 10,000 peasant troops, so he must not be able to set off any waves. At this time, we are confronting Liu Bei, if we draw troops and horses, I am afraid that there will be a shortage of soldiers and horses. Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "You don't understand, every autumn and September is the time when Yan Kuang sends grain and grass to Dingling, when Chen Du is the most empty, and Ji Ping people launch a rebellion, presumably taking advantage of this opportunity." ”

"But even so, what can one Jiping do alone? The letter said that Ji Ping summoned more than 1,000 slaves to rebel, but how many slaves from the big families in Chen Du were tens of thousands? Jiang Ji said: "As long as those families loyal to the King of Wei can send troops, presumably this rebellion should be easily quelled." Liu Ye also said: "And Chen is far away, even if he goes back now, I'm afraid it's too late." ”

"Hmm." Cao Cao pursed his lips, he wore a crown on his head, and the beaded curtain on his hat swayed gently as his body swayed.

Sima Yi said: "Ming Gong can send the tiger and leopard to ride back, the tiger and leopard ride one person and three horses, gallop lightly, travel three hundred miles a day, and can reach Chendu within a few days, which may have a miraculous effect." ”

"Good." Cao Cao nodded and said to Xu Chu, "Let Cao Chun go." "Historically, Cao Chun died in Jian'an fifteen years, probably probably from the plague, and he was only forty years old when he died.

But now the trajectory of history is different, he did not appear in the place where he died in history, and finally survived, and now he is forty-eight years old.

When Xu Chu received the order, he sent someone to inform Cao Chun to lead the tiger and leopard to ride back. After he left, Cao Cao frowned and said to everyone: "Shen Chen led the army north to attack Henan, this thief is extremely familiar with Henan, and the few people are afraid that Cao Hong will not be able to be defeated, do you have any good strategy?" Sima Yi stepped forward and said, "King Wei." ”

"Huh?" Cao Cao looked at him suspiciously. Sima Yi hurriedly looked down at the ground and whispered, "Yi thinks that we shouldn't do anything." ”

"Nothing should be done?" Cao Cao said angrily: "Do you want to watch Shen Chen act recklessly in Henan? ”

"Of course not." Yan Sima Yi hurriedly said: "What does Yi mean...... Sun Quan, it's time to make a move. "Sun Quan?

In an instant, Cao Cao's whole person was like an empowerment, and Sima Yi's words made him suddenly open his eyes and his eyes lit up.

Yes. Isn't this Sun Quan's best chance? At that time, Guo Jia designed to use the entanglement with Liu Bei in Guanzhong to make Jingzhou empty and lead Sun Quan to attack Jingzhou.

As a result, a great plague swept through the entire Han Dynasty, Cao Cao in the north, and Liu Bei and Sun Quan in the south, all affected.

As a result, the three families had to call off the truce, and the plan was forced to be suspended. But at this time, the Jiping rebellion suddenly occurred, and it happened that Jiping colluded with Shen Chen again, leading Shen Chen to send troops to Henan to hold Cao Hong, and the two sides fell into a state of confrontation.

So what has become of Jingzhou now? The soldiers and horses of Jingnan and Nanjun were basically transferred away by Liu Bei, and only the Jiangxia naval army and more than 10,000 Zhao Yun's Xiling soldiers remained.

On the Nanyang side, part of Shen Chen's army was contained by Xu Huang, and the other 50,000 troops were restrained by Cao Hong, so there were basically more than 10,000 soldiers and horses left behind in Nanyang.

Overnight, Jingzhou was empty. And according to the strategy he had agreed with Sun Quan a long time ago, Sun Quan should send troops at this time.

At that moment, Cao Cao did not hesitate to pick up the paper and pen on the table and began to wave. After a few moments he finished writing the letter, stamped it with his so-called

"King Wei" sealed, and said: "Xu Chu." ”

"The end will be." Xu Chu came in from outside the door again. Cao Cao said: "Take the widow's letter, immediately send an envoy to Jiangdong, and hand it over to Sun Quan." ”

"Yui." Xu Chu stepped forward and carefully put away the letter, put it away in a bamboo tube, and sent it out. After he left, Cao Cao looked around and laughed proudly: "Hahahaha, it's really heaven to help the widow, it seems that the rebellion of Najiping is not a bad thing, if he hadn't led Shen Chen away, Sun Quan would not have dared to send troops." Yan Sima Yi stepped forward and said: "Liu Bei's annexation of Jiangdong's heart, Sun Quan will not know, this is his last chance, whether he can grasp it or not, it depends on himself." ”

"Hmm." Cao Cao nodded and said: "The widow told him in the letter, and the widow will send troops next month, take the initiative to attack, and take Yixian directly, when Liu Bei's main force is dragged in Guanzhong, and he will no longer be able to rescue the affairs of the south." ”

"This is all King Wei's clever plan." Sima Yi hurriedly bowed, showing flattery.

"Hahahaha." Cao Cao smiled, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and said fiercely: "How can the widow want Liu Bei to swallow half of the widow's right Fufeng and Liangzhou, and then spit it out!" "Ahh

"King Shengming of Wei!" All the ministers congratulated each other, because after being crowned king, they could open the country, so they were all Wei ministers, and they were no longer Han courtiers.

............ Almost at the same time that Cao Cao got the information, in late September, Jiangdong Jianye.

In fact, Sun Quan knew the news two days earlier than Cao Cao. Because Huainan is close to Henan. Yan Shenchen confronted Cao Hong in Taiting on September 12, and it was only about ten days before Sun Quan knew the situation.

However, he was also wondering why Shen Chen would suddenly send troops, so he didn't dare to act rashly, and kept sending scouts back and forth to check the information, thinking that he would wait and see the situation first.

After waiting for a few days, Jiping rebelled, and then Shen Chen's fire burned Cao's army's grain and grass, and the news that the Yellow Gate soldiers had once again entered the Chen capital city followed, Jianye's Sun Quan could not digest this information for a while, and did not come back to his senses for a long time.

In the hall of Jianye Wuhou Mansion, Sun Quan sat on the main seat, and the first person on the right hand side was an old man, over sixty years old, with a gray beard and strong spirits.

This person is the famous Zhang Zhao and Zhang Zibu. That's right

"Ask Zhou Yu if you don't decide on foreign affairs, and ask Zhang Zhao if you don't decide on internal affairs." Over the years, Zhang Zhao has been administering land for Sun Quan in the rear of Danyang and Wu County, although he has not participated in the front-line military, but now Jiangdong can recover as soon as possible after several major wars and plagues, Zhang Zhao can be said to have contributed a lot.

In addition to him, Zhuge Jin, Gu Yong, Sun Shao, Kan Ze, and Yan Jian are all here, and even in a corner below, there is a scholar in his thirties.

The young and handsome appearance is obviously incompatible with the old strategist corps here, who are all over fifty years old.

But this scholar's real name is Lu Yi, the word Boyan, and later changed his name to Lu Xun, who is now four years Chinese New Year's Eve old, as early as 14 years ago when he was 20 years old, he had already entered the shogunate of Sun Quan, and now he has become the right governor under Sun Quan's account.

Sun Quan looked at the people below, since Lu Su died of illness last year, he originally wanted Yan Yan to take over Lu Su's position and become the front-line governor.

But he knew that he was difficult to defeat Liu Beijun, so he resolutely resigned. In desperation, Sun Quan could only let LΓΌ Meng succeed him as the governor and became the top general of the Jiangdong Army.

At this time, Sun Quan looked around and said: "Everyone, you have all heard the news, Chen Du's imperial physician Ling Jiping colluded with Shen Chen to launch a rebellion, Shen Chen thought that this was an opportunity for the Northern Expedition, so he sent troops to attack Henan, but was stopped by Cao Hong, the two sides confronted each other in Taiting, and they wanted to send troops, what do you want?" "Ahh

"Forehead......" Everyone in the audience hesitated for a moment and did not speak. The main reason is that the plague swept the world last year, and the least harmful to the armies in various places was Liu Beijun, followed by Cao Wei's army, while Sun Quan's Jiangdong army was heavily damaged, killing and wounding many people.

If it weren't for the fact that a disciple of the famous doctor Zhang Zhongjing walked to Jiangdong and brought a prescription to eliminate the plague and treat the soldiers, I am afraid I don't know how many people died.

This year, I finally recuperated and recovered a little, and I am afraid that it is not appropriate to send troops at this time...... Zhang Zhao said: "Wu Hou, we killed and injured a lot of soldiers due to the epidemic last year, and the recent soldiers and horses are all newly replenished soldiers, although the training is close to a year, but after all, they are not elite soldiers, if we send troops at this moment, I am afraid that the army will be unstable." ”

"Gong Zhang, this is Jiangdong's last chance." Yan Sun Quan immediately said: "Gong should also know how Liu Bei dealt with those big families under his rule, he confiscated their land and population, sent people to measure their farmland, and forced them to include the Dingkou tax owed by their slaves into the treasury, if they do not send troops at this time, Jiangdong will be annexed by Liu Bei in the future, and the major families in Jiangdong, hum." At the end of the day, he snorted twice, the facial muscles on his face stiffened, almost close to sneering.

Although Sun Quan is jealous of Liu Bei, the Jiangdong family is not a good thing, hiding the population and fields, privately armed forces, and shouting all day long for him to defect to Cao Cao.

".....Forehead" Zhang Zhao is actually not from a Jiangdong family, but from a Xuzhou family. However, his prestige is very high, and his status in the literary world also belongs to the Jiangdong leader level, so he shares the honor and disgrace with the Jiangdong family, and almost advances and retreats together.

Hearing Sun Quan's words at this moment, Zhang Zhaoshen nodded approvingly and said, "Perhaps, we can only send troops." "Ahh

"But how to attack?" Kan Ze wondered and asked, "Although our opponent is only the Jiangxia Naval Army, if we attack head-on, Jiangxia is not so easy to break." ”

"Yes, back then, the old thief of Huangzu guarded Xiakou, so that the rebellious general could not break through it many times." Yan Yan said: "Now the strength of the Jiangxia Navy is twice as strong as when Huang Zu was back then. If you attack forcibly, I'm afraid you will lose your troops. ”

"Could it be Jing Nan?" Zhuge Jin remembered the plan that Lu Su had mentioned at the beginning to raid Jiangxia and Nanjun from Jingnan and Yuzhang, Jingnan is now empty, and they have more than 10,000 defenders in Guiyang.

"Exactly." Yan Sun Quan stroked his beard and laughed: "Gu has already ordered Sun Jiao to be stationed in Guiyang, and when the time comes, he will immediately occupy Jingnan, first break the public security, and then take Jiangling, an important town in Nanjun!" At that time, as long as Yiling and Yidao are controlled, Liu Bei's reinforcements will not be able to pass, and then the Jiangxia Navy will be attacked from east to west, and after the Huang Shot is destroyed, it will be Shen Chen's turn. At that time, Lonely's revenge was avenged, and Jingzhou was at your fingertips! ”

"But we don't have ships in Jingnan, and the Jiangxia Navy only needs to divide a fleet of 5,000 people to block the river, making it impossible for us to pass." Zhang Zhao thought about this key question.

Entering Jiangxia from Yuzhang, they could use the fleet of the Jiangdong Naval Division to duel with the Jiangxia Naval Division on the Yangtze River.

However, Guiyang is not the Yangtze River, and there is no water system branch from Yuzhang to navigate, and the only two water systems are Weishui or Zhongshui flowing into the Xiangjiang River from south to north.

But that's someone else's territory, and the navy can't get by. Therefore, even if they get Jingnan and find some fishing boats or build ships on the spot, they will definitely not be able to build those huge ships for fighting on the river.

Once he was intercepted by the Jiangxia Sailor when he crossed the river, wouldn't the army on the Guiyang side be wiped out?

However, Sun Quan smiled slightly, and said softly: "You don't know how many years Gu and Zijing have been planning for this plan. We have built thousands of warships in Benxian and Weiyang, which are enough to deal with the interception of the Jiangxia naval division. Everyone's eyes widened and their hearts were shocked.

Unexpectedly, Sun Quan had already started planning and secretly built a shipyard along the Weishui coast of Guiyang, and in ten years, thousands of warships were built, just for today.

Even his closest courtiers were hidden, and the whole matter was probably only known to Lu Su and the defending generals and craftsmen on Guiyang's side.

Wu Hou's forbearance can be seen.

"Congratulations to Marquis Wu." Yan Zhang Zhao hurriedly stood up and celebrated: "Once the army goes north and Jiangling is broken, we will be able to choke the road in the west, take Jiangxia in the east, and attack the Jiangxia Naval Division with the main force." ”

"Hahahahaha." Sun Quan laughed and stood up, slowly walked outside the hall, and looked up at the sky.

Gongjin, Zijing, your long-cherished wish has been fulfilled. Father and brother, if you have a spirit in heaven, please protect the foundation of Jiangdong and let me win in one battle!

"Lone wants to go to the mouth of the mustache, sit in Chaisang, and send troops to Jingzhou!" Sun Quan reluctantly turned around, his eyes blazing, and said: "This is the battle of Jiangdong's life and death, please do your best to protect my Jiangdong!" "Ahh

"Yui!" Everyone stood up and gave their hands seriously. Most of the people here are Jiangdong scholars, including Lu Xun, who is also from the Lu family.

Liu Bei's suppression of the Jingyi family and the deprivation of the Jingyi family's population and land properties is to dig the roots of the family.

Although the Jiangdong Shi clan wanted to surrender to Cao Cao, at this time, for their own interests, they had been forced to tie to Sun Quan's warship.

This battle. They can't do it if they don't participate. Diaphragm
