Chapter 37 The Reconquest of Jingzhou I
Chapter 37 Recovering Jingzhou
Two days later, after all the military orders were dispatched, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, and Huang Zu in Xiangyang City had a total of 150,000 troops, while Gan Ning, Cai Mao, and Pang Tong in Jiangxia had a total of 110,000 troops!
The soldiers of the entire Xiangyang City are training!
And Li Zhe, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, and Ma Jian are all talking together.
Zhuge Liang said: My lord, although we are in a good situation now, what will Liu Biao do?
Xu Shu said: Liu Biao will invite foreign aid!
Yes, he will definitely ask for foreign help! And who to please?
Zhuge Liang said that it is impossible for Eastern Wu, and there is only Yuan Shu of Si Lizhou!
Li Zhe laughed when he heard this, if Yuan Shu really came, Nan Wu would definitely lose Si Lizhou!
Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu don't understand what it means?
Li Zhe said that the north of Yuzhou and Sili Prefecture is Cao Cao's territory, and if he leads his troops to attack us, he will take away no less than 200,000 soldiers and horses from Sili Prefecture and Yuzhou! In this way, Sili Prefecture and Yuzhou will be empty!
Cao Cao will definitely attack Silizhou when he gets the news! And in this case, we can take Jingzhou.
If it's fast, we can go to Yuzhou after we take Jingzhou!
Everyone is laughing when they hear it!
After a while, Gan Ying walked in with a stack of clothes! Hear everyone laughing here! I couldn't help but turn around and go out again! And Li Zhe heard Gan Ying's footsteps. Say, I'll go bask in the sun, and you guys can take care of your official business!
Li Zhe walked out and saw Gan Ying's back posture, beautiful buttocks, and graceful steps, Li Zhe shouted, sister, and Gan Ying suddenly turned around and looked at Li Zhe with a smile!
Saying, brother, I made a dress for you, you try to see if it fits or not, Li Zhe saw that Gan Ying's hand had many red dots when he took the clothes. Immediately grabbed Gan Ying's hand and looked at it, this is all tied like this for me to sew clothes!
Sister, don't do these rough jobs in the future, just let the next person do it, I want you to stay by my side with peace of mind!
Li Zhe pulled Gan Ying and hugged Gan Ying in his arms! Li Zhe deeply felt the feeling of Gan Ying's soft and elastic chest leaning against his chest! I can also feel Gan Ying's affection for herself!
Two people hugging like this! Hold! Li Zhe smelled Gan Ying's body fragrance and stroked her silky hair with his hand! Feel the feeling that you can express your inner emotions without words!
Yuan Shu of Sili Prefecture summoned 100,000 horses from Yuzhou and 100,000 horses from Sili Prefecture, a total of 200,000 to Nanyang County!
After Li Zhe got the information, he had already given the letter he had written to the messenger and asked him to send it to Cao Cao in Xuzhou as soon as possible!
Then he ordered Xu Shu to lead the soldiers and horses of Huang Zu's headquarters to the northernmost part of Nanyang County to intercept Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses! As long as it can drag on for four days! Tell Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to lead the people of the headquarters to take Jiangling and Nanjun!
Xiangyang City is handsome and marches north. And Xu Shu took away the camp tents and stoves of 100,000 troops!
And Zhang Fei and Guan Yu led their headquarters to the south respectively!
Zhang Fei's 50,000-strong army marched into Jiangling City, while Guan Yu's headquarters marched into Nanjun!
And at this moment, Liu Biao got the news in Changsha County, and Li Zhe's soldiers and horses moved.
Liu Biao's mood was very suspicious, he didn't expect to send troops to take Nanjun so soon!
On the morning of the next day, Xu Shu and Huang Zu's army arrived in the northernmost mountain range of Nanyang County! There is a gorge in the middle of the mountain range, which is particularly short, 50 meters long.
Xu Shu ordered Huang Zu to camp at the southern end of this gorge, the more obvious the better! The camp tents were all set down, and the firehead army was ordered to open the pot for cooking, and all the stoves were used, and the extra stoves were boiled for water, and the soldiers were ordered to wash their feet at night! Huang Zu thought to himself, soak your feet? Is this a war or is it a pleasure to come? But I didn't ask too much, and went to tell the soldiers!
And Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's army, as long as the soldiers and horses are under that city, the soldiers in the city will open the city and surrender!
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei easily collected Jiangling and Nanjun!
After two days, Yuan Shu's army has arrived ten miles north of Xu Shu's camp, and the spies reported to Yuan Shu, there is a large camp in front, Xu Zi Shuai Banner, and there are no less than 100,000 troops!
Yuan Shu said in surprise, what? Lakh?
The spy said that I saw that the camp tent was 100,000 military, and then I checked the cooking stove, and there were more than 10,000! (The ancient army was ten people and one stove), more than 10,000 stoves, but there are not 100,000 people here!
And Yuan Shu thought to himself, you are bold enough, and you can settle all the troops here. I'm here to help Liu Biao, this is not my war at all, let's set up a village first and see what they are arranging! Yuan Shu thought to himself: There are many mountains and forests here, if there are ambush soldiers, it will be unbearable!
The two armies were consumed here, and a day passed, and the two armies did not move, and Yuan Shu's spies reported more than a dozen times a day, and they all said that there was no movement!
At night, Yuan Shu's heart has been tense, afraid that if there is no movement during the day, he will rob the camp at night!
Early the next morning, Yuan Shu couldn't figure out what Xu Shu was doing! It's been like this, and two days have passed! The calmer he is, the more chaotic Yuan Shu's heart becomes!
When the messenger arrived in Xuzhou and entered the gate of Cao Cao's mansion, the guards came to report that there was a messenger outside the door, saying that it was a letter from Li Zhe to you.
When he heard the name Li Zhe, he suddenly became energetic, and then asked the messenger to bring it in!
The messenger gave the letter to Cao Cao, and he opened it to read it, "It's a good thing, it's a good thing!"
Cao Cao said, wrote a letter with a pen, gave it to the messenger, and then said to the messenger, when you go back, help me bring a good message to your lord, and I will start the army!
After the messenger left, Cao Cao summoned the military generals of Wenchen, ordered Cao Ren to command 50,000 soldiers and horses, ordered Cao Hong to command 10,000 cavalry, Xun Yu as the commander, and marched into Lizhou tomorrow! I'll lead 100,000 and I'll be there!
Xun Yu thought to himself when he heard this, the lord has emptied all the troops, it seems that he is really going to fight Yuan Shu!
After Cao Cao's order is finished, the psychology is so happy! Thinking about Yuan Shu, you don't have a foothold this time!
At this time, in the Taishou Mansion of Xiangyang, Li Zhe and Zhuge Liang were talking together, and a spy came in to report: Xu Shu has been less than ten miles away from Yuan Shu, and both armies have set up camps, and there is no movement for a day and a night!
Zhuge Liang said that Yuan Zhi's suspicious plan seems to have worked! And Li Zhe nodded naturally!
Suddenly, there was another spy report: Zhang Fei and Guan Yu had already taken Nanjun and Jiangling City, and each of them had more than 10,000 troops. Our army was expanded by 20,000.
Li Zhe listened and said to Zhuge Liang: Kong Ming, you see, we now occupy the entire northern part of Jingzhou, why attack the southern part of Jingzhou?
Lord, we don't have to wait for anything, we can also capture Jingnan now!
Li Zhe looked at Zhuge Liang's puzzled eyes!
Zhuge Liang said with a smile, can the lord wait for Yuan Shu's 200,000 army, in fact, you look at the whole situation, if Cao Cao takes Sili Prefecture, then what will he do, he will be ready to eat us, and we are now sending a messenger to send a letter to Yuan Shu, saying that Cao Cao has raised more than 100,000 troops to attack Sili Prefecture! Yuan Shu will definitely return to Sili Prefecture in a hurry, and by the time Yuan Shu and Cao Cao meet, we have already taken down Liu Biao's entire seven counties of Jingzhou (all say that Jingxiang Nine Counties, in fact, there are only seven counties. Historically, Jingzhou in the Eastern Han Dynasty originally governed seven counties: Nanyang County, Nan County, Jiangxia County, Lingling County, Guiyang County, Wuling County, and Changsha County. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a part of the counties were separated from Nanyang County and Nan County, and two counties of Xiangyang and Zhangling were set up, so Jingzhou had a total of nine counties! In the end, no matter who wins or loses Yuan Shu or Cao Cao, they will remember the benefits of the lord, and they will remember our great kindness in the future!
Li Zhe listened to Zhuge Liang's words and was stunned for a long time, in fact, Li Zhe didn't expect that the strategist is the strategist, thoughtful, although he is a bit of a villain, but he has to admit that the implementation of this strategy can be miraculous! And Liu Biao from Jingzhou knew that he would lie on the ground and cry!
