Chapter 56: Sun Quan
Sun Quan sighed and said, "Hey, what can I do if things have come to this point." Do we still have good friends in this world who can help me a little? β
Lu Su Zhengse said: "To say that the allies are not nothing, now Cao Cao will lead the army to fight to the death with Yuan Shao in Hebei, Su heard that Yuan Shao sent a messenger to contact the ancestor a few days ago, trying to persuade the ancestor to unite with him and jointly attack Cao Cao, but the ancestor has not replied to return to heaven, I don't know what the lord plans to do?" β
Sun Quan said with some hesitation: "Cao Cao's name is Han Xiang, he is really a Han thief, he coerced the Son of Heaven and ordered the world, it is really heaven and earth that heaven and earth do not tolerate, I want to unite with Yuan Gong, jointly flank Cao thief, break Xuchang, and welcome the Son of Heaven, when the time comes, Yuan Gong will definitely look down on us, and afterwards we are asking Yuan Gong to send troops to help me crusade against Liu Xun." But Liu Xun Lao'er has already broken through Yuzhang County and destroyed the general Tai Shici, all the way like a bamboo. The situation in our Jiangdong is getting weaker and weaker, and now there are no troops to send to Xudu. In this case, Zijing felt that what should we do to achieve the greatest benefit. β
Lu Su couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Su Yu thinks that it is the best policy to protect Jiangdong first, even if the lord helps Yuan Gong defeat Cao Cao today, where will he still take care of today's grace when Yuan Shao is strong."
What's more, now Hugh said that our army is still separated from Xuchang by a Xuzhou controlled by Cao Cao, even if our army can reach Xuchang smoothly, we should not rashly agree to Yuan Shao, Cao Mengdeshi's hero, and Xu Chu, Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan's bravery, Le Jin, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, Cao Ren's ability, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu's wisdom, although the number is less than Yuan Shao, but the whole is united, the soldiers use their lives, Yuan Shao may not be easy to win in the future, why do we have to travel thousands of miles to capture a Xuchang that cannot be defended?
According to Su's opinion, instead of helping Yuan Shao attack Xuchang, it is better to manage the remaining four counties in Jiangdong, make every effort to prevent Liu Xun's arrival, and then conquer Shanyue and develop agriculture, and then accumulate strength to defeat Liu Xun, and then plot Jingzhou, take Yizhou, and when the time is ripe, enter the Central Plains to become a hegemon. β
Sun Quan said very agreeably when he heard this: "What Zijing said is that relying on others can't be relied on after all, and you need to be hard to strike iron." Now that Liu Xun is a thief who has won two battles, he will definitely not stop at Yuzhang County, so we have to be on guard against him. β
"After all, the lord has four counties, and Liu Xun is only a land of two counties, so please don't panic too much. Su has already recruited all the strong generals in Qu'a, Wu County, and Huiji, and when the training is successful, he will lead these forces to cross the river and go north, first seize the Lujiang River and Yuzhang from Liu Xun's hands, and then take the opportunity of Yuan Cao's confrontation to attack Xuchang, so that he may establish a hegemony in the world, and no matter how bad it is, he can dominate Jiangdong. β
Sun Quan sighed and said slowly: "Zijing doesn't need to comfort me, now we do have the land of four counties, but the eldest brother has been taking the route of elite soldiers before, although he has the land of five counties, but the number of elite soldiers is only 60,000, and Lujiang lost nearly 30,000 soldiers in the first battle, and Yuzhang lost 5,000 soldiers after defeat. Now Liu Xun's army is conquering Jiangdong all the way, and after only a few days of effort, Yuzhang has been lost, and now the Jiangdong army is panicked and internally unstable. If Liu Xun raises troops to the south again, I am afraid that the entire Jiangdong will no longer be owned by our army. β
Lu Su said in a low voice: "Lord, there are difficulties, but there is no need to be arrogant, doesn't Liu Xun have to divide troops to garrison Yuzhang County?" How many troops will he have to attack us?
Sun Quan was silent for a long time and replied: "Thank you Zijing for relieving my worries, I intend to stick to the four counties of Jiangdong and compete with Liu Xun's dog thief, I don't know what Zijing thinks." β
Lu Su smiled bitterly and said: "Lord, your idea is very good, but Liu Xun has conquered Yuzhang County at the moment, and with his wolf ambition, he will definitely not stop there." And it will take at least three days for the news of Yuzhang County to reach Huiji. Su thought that as long as Liu Xun was not stupid, he would definitely return to the army and go south again, and his army might already be halfway at this moment. β
Sun Quan's face suddenly changed: "Zijing, then Liu Xun really has such a means?" β
Lu Su nodded and said, "Nine times out of ten"
Sun Quan's face turned pale in an instant, and he said weakly: "Where does Zijing think Liu Xun's next goal will be?" β
Lu Su replied with certainty: "If nothing else, Liu Xun's next target will definitely be Moling." β
"Why?"
"My lord, think about it, where did the first lord send troops to Lujiang?"
Sun Quan suddenly realized: "The troops drawn by the eldest brother are Moling, Yuzhang and the second county. In this case, we should quickly send a large army to support Moling. β
Lu Su sighed and said, "Lord, Moling is far away from us, if we send a large army to support, then the troops in Huiji City will become empty. What if Liu Xun found out the news, waved his army to get it directly, and then what would it be. Moreover, the ancestor conquered Jiangdong in the past, the killing was too heavy, and the grudge with the family was too deep, and the Shanyue people who rebelled repeatedly were added. At that time, if we draw our troops north to Moling, if Liu Xun sends people to provoke, it will definitely be unstable. β
Sun Quan suddenly sat on the ground when he heard this, and said angrily: "Could it be that we just watched Moling fall into Liu Xun's hands but stood by and watched? β
Lu Su said with difficulty: "Lu Meng is a genius in the world, and he must be able to defend Moling with his ability." We took advantage of this time to stabilize the interior, form a good family, and recruit and train them on a large scale. At that time, we will naturally have the strength to compete with Liu Xun, who lacks a naval army, with a strong naval army. β
Sun Ce said very painfully: "If we don't send a single soldier to support, presumably the morale of the army in Moling City will be unstable, and it will not be able to delay time at all." β
Lu Su thought for a long time and said in a deep voice: "The lord can choose a general to send a partial division to support Moling by water, if there is something to do, it can be done, if it is not possible, it can also increase the confidence of the soldiers defending the city, and if it encounters the most critical moment, it can also be returned by water." β
"It was a brilliant strategy, and the trip was so difficult that it almost killed you. I don't know who Zijing thinks can be such a big responsibility? β
"General Lu Fan is loyal to the ancestor and even more courageous, so the lord can send him as a general."
Sun Quan thought for a moment and then replied: "General Lu is indeed very courageous, and he dared to go to Xuzhou alone to pick up his mother before. Since this is the case, do what Zijing said, and let General Lu Fan lead the naval army to respond. β
"If."
Now that Sun Quan had already set a strategy, Lu Su also felt a little relieved, so he said goodbye to Sun Quan and went down to prepare for everything. He believed that as long as he could block Liu Xun's attack this time, Jiangdong would definitely be able to rise again with the power of the four countiesγγγγγγ
