Chapter 484 The Flag Dies, the Economic Competition
Hefei.
Hearing that Zhang Liao and Le Jin led the troops back, Sun Quan, who was originally complacent, decisively chose to retreat.
This decision made Lu Meng, Zhuge Jin and others quite puzzled.
"Wu Hou! Even if Zhang Liao returned to help, he had just suffered a defeat in Jiangling, which can be described as low morale. β
"Cao Jun may not be my Jiangdong opponent, as long as we continue to besiege the city, we will definitely be able to conquer Hefei!"
Zhuge Jin said that this was the best time for Jiangdong to capture Hefei.
The enemy was demoralized, and Le Jin was wounded.
Leaving at this time is simply a big joke in the world!
"Wu Hou, I support Zhuge Ziyu in this matter."
It is rare for LΓΌ Meng to hold the same opinion as Zhuge Jin, who advocates the Sun-Liu alliance.
"Revenge is now."
"Whether it is Zhang Liao or Lejin, this time it will not be our army's opponent!"
"If our army retreats without a fight, it will affect morale."
Sun Quan hesitated at this time, through the last battle of Hefei, he already knew that he had no ability to command the army.
"Ziyu, Ziming, why don't Ben Hou leave first, and you command the army to attack the city?"
Zhuge Jin and Lu Meng glanced at each other, they both understood that Sun Quan was already afraid!
If the soldiers heard that the Lord was leaving, where would they have morale?
Lu Meng and Zhuge Jin were quite helpless, and Wu Hou always dropped the chain at the critical moment!
"Wu Hou, if you retreat in this battle, I am afraid that there will be no war between the three parties in the future!"
"Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and the Sun family will enter the stage of national power competition!"
"I only have six counties in Jiangdong in Dongwu, and my national strength is far from being comparable to Cao Cao and Liu Bei!"
Zhuge Jin made an ultimatum, hoping that Sun Quan would take care of the overall situation.
It's just that Sun Quan has made up his mind that he must not repeat the mistakes of the past.
The Battle of Xiaoyaojin completely wiped out Sun Quan's martial heart.
"Withdraw your troops...... Jiangdong is rich and strong, and we may not lose to Cao Cao and Liu Bei! β
Sun Quan waved his hand and finally gave the order.
Above the Hefei City Tower, Zhang Liao looked at the retreating Wu army with a sarcastic expression.
"People say that Sun Jian is the Jiangdong Tiger, Sun Ce is the little overlord, but Sun Quan does not have the courage of his father and brother."
"If the siege continues, and there is not a single peace, our army will definitely be demoralized, and there will even be a mutiny."
"I can only say that this is heaven helping King Wei!"
Le Jin and Li Dian nodded and praised, although the three of them were not on good terms in private, they never delayed their official business.
"Wen Qian, I'm afraid that the era that belongs to you and my generals will finally come to an end."
"After this battle, unless one side has an absolute advantage, it must not be easy to raise troops."
"I don't know if I'll be able to wait until then."
Le Jin looked at Zhang Liao's back, looking depressed and lonely.
"It's a pity...... Xun Wenruo still died a little early......"
Li Dian couldn't help but sigh: "Even if Lu Bu is among the people, among the 100,000 army, he can only be captured." β
"King Wei occupies the Central Plains, and he will definitely be able to survive Liu Bei and Sun Quan with his national strength!"
It's just Li Dian's words, but they were not recognized by Zhang Liao and Le Jin.
The fear of the battle of Gangneung has been imprinted in the hearts of the two.
Only by real experience can we know the danger of this battle.
β¦β¦
Gangneung.
Liu Mang does not plan to return to Chengdu in a short time.
He wants to run Jingzhou personally, and by the way, he cultivates a relationship with Zhang Xingcai and Guan Yinping.
After all, Xingcai tends to develop with the royal sister, which is Liu Mang's dish!
As for the silver screen, it is childish!
After all, he grew up as a childhood sweetheart, and he will definitely become Liu Mang's confidant in the future.
"Childe, in the land of Jingzhou, if there is no war, there will be enough soldiers and food, and the country will be rich and the people will be strong."
"When Liu Jingsheng was in the past, it was precisely because he occupied this place that he was not disturbed by war that he became the lord of the party."
"After the Gangneung War, the two sides will not start a war on the surface, but what is behind the scenes is unpredictable."
Pang Tong held a wine gourd, "This is probably the economic competition that Gongzi said!" β
Liu Mang nodded, fortunately, when Yu Xinye was at the beginning, he had no intention of inserting willows and letting the two uncles set up a caravan.
For example, in every state today, the goods of the Mi clan caravan are indispensable.
"Economic warfare is an economic struggle between two opposing sides to seize strategic superiority and win a war."
"Mainly refers to all forms of economic struggle during war, but also includes economic blockades and economic disturbances in peacetime."
"There is no real peace, but a critical moment to open up economic warfare."
Liu Mang simply talked about his ideas for everyone.
"Don't think that Cao Cao occupies the rich land of the Central Plains, and he can use his national strength to survive us."
"In fact, in peacetime, we are more operable."
"Shu salt and Shu brocade alone are enough for Cao Cao to drink a pot!"
Central Plains scholars, who doesn't wear Shu brocade?
Cao Cao strictly ordered his subordinates to wear Shu brocade, what was the result?
Everyone held a meeting with the beggars on the surface, and they still purchased a large amount of Shu brocade behind their backs.
Not to mention Shu salt, there are many salt ponds in Yizhou.
Liu Mang informed Zhuge Liang of the previous salt-making method.
Wolong personally went to guide that the taste of Shu salt was better than that of salt in the Central Plains and Jiangdong.
Whether it is a dignitary or an ordinary person, Shu Han can pick wool!
Shu brocade and Shu salt are two fist products.
Not to mention, now that Liu Mang has recovered Liangzhou, there are still many natural salt ponds.
"Then we are waiting for the generals, won't it become an ornament?"
Gan Ning couldn't help but sigh, although it was a good thing to fight undead, she preferred the feeling of galloping on the battlefield.
"Xinghe, a country will always use war to finally complete the great cause of reunification."
"It's just that the economic war is to open up the national strength of the three countries, and in the end, you will complete the fatal blow."
"Don't worry, it won't be too long!"
Liu Mang understands the thoughts of the generals, once upon a time they were the protagonists, but now they have been reduced to supporting roles, and they must not be in their hearts.
But the real war is by no means the courage of the horseman, but the competition of the national strength of the two countries.
Liu Mang also hopes to take advantage of this time to allow the national strength to precipitate, at least to run Liangzhou.
What's more, there is Jiaozhou, a large producer, which is enough to support the food consumption of Dahan.
As for the population?
There are so many people in Qiang, there is no need to use it in vain.
The nature of the people is to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, as long as Shu Han is rich and strong enough, there will only be more and more people migrating here.
"Shizi, how are we going to start the economic war?"
Pang Tong was gearing up, and he had already thought of several good ideas to consume Cao Cao and Sun Quan.
"Recuperate, stay still."
Liu Mang smiled slyly: "Rather than taking the lead, I prefer to show weakness to the enemy." β
"As long as Cao Cao and Sun Quan pursue the current policy, we Han will make sure that we will not lose money, so why interfere too much?"
When the generals heard this, they were all stunned.
"If you don't do anything, you can make money every day, so why bother adding snakes?"
"That's right, Fourth Uncle Zhao, Xingba! Take advantage of the time you have to make a man! β
Zhao Yun and Gan Ning looked at each other and smiled, sure enough, there is a son of the world, no matter how difficult it is, it can be solved.
