Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Difference in Offensive and Defensive Trends [Seeking to Read]

Spit out a word, and seeing that the Lord and the civil and military forces on both sides had some doubts on their faces, Lu Meng quickly ran to the map hanging between the screens, and said in a deep voice with his fingers on the map:

"Ladies and gentlemen, Lukou is located at the junction of the river and the tributary Lushui, to the south is the Hanchang County that the lord previously set out the northern counties of Changsha, and to the north is the Xiakou that controls the Han and River water systems, and the north bank of the west side is Wulin Port."

"With Lu Boyan raising troops to fight, I expect that the safety of Hanchang County is safe, and there are also some sailors stationed in Xiakou, so don't worry too much."

As soon as these words fell, Lu Meng's eyebrows became more and more furrowed, and he said in a stern tone: "But if Huo Yi rushes east from the land and water to the Chibi Mountains on the southeast side. ”

"This mountain road can be directly inserted into the important town of Chaisang, if this place is lost, not only military supplies and other supplies will be cut off."

"Even our communication with the hinterland of Jiangdong will be blocked."

When the words fell, his face was already very serious, without the slightest lightheartedness.

When all the civil and military officers heard this, they were also shocked.

Only Sun Quanchengfu was quite deep, his face was relatively calm, and after a long silence, he asked: "How much does Ziming think is the possibility that Huo Yi will attack Chaisang along this mountain road?" ”

"I am afraid that eight or nine will not be far from ten."

Lu Meng's expression was solemn, and he replied truthfully.

"This son is so courageous, in the face of Lu Xun's troops, do you dare to divide your troops to attack Chaisang?"

Hearing his sworn response, Sun Quan was also a little surprised at this moment.

Lu Meng shook his head and sighed, "Alas, since Huo Yi decisively took a boat south to attack Lukou when he attacked Baqiu, if Meng's expectations were good, he was afraid that he had thought of this strategy long before sending troops from Jiangling." ”

As soon as the words fell, at this moment, the hall suddenly seemed to be silent, and the atmosphere became extremely dull.

Everyone present knew very well that if it was really as Lu Meng had just said, once Chaisang was attacked, the consequences would be so serious.

After hearing this, Sun Quan thought for a while, and a look of firmness appeared in his eyes, and he ordered in a loud voice:

"Ziming, you are alone, immediately gather all the troops of the army, go south by boat along the river to reinforce Lu Xun's troops, and you must recapture the Lukou camp as soon as possible and control all places."

After that, he looked quite serious and quickly issued a military order.

This matter cannot be delayed, otherwise Chaisang will be lost, and the situation will be completely unbalanced.

"Commanded,"

When Lu Meng heard the news, he quickly walked back to the middle of the hall with a solemn expression, and clenched his fists to lead the way.

Subsequently, Sun Quan was worried about the safety of the rear, and there seemed to be a look of relief on his face, and he looked at both sides and said, "Zhou Tai listens to the order." ”

"The last general!"

In the next second, Zhou Tai, who was strong, burly, and quite tall and mighty, stood out proudly and responded with his fists in his fists.

"Ordered you to take the more than 1,000 elite cars that escorted the lonely left and right, and went with Ziming to wait for the dispatch."

"Yes,"

The fall of this military order is enough to feel Sun Quan's determination.

However, he also knows very well that the situation he is facing now is not whether he can continue to attack the state capital Gangneung City, but whether he can recapture Lukou and protect the safety of his rear.

If Chaisang is lost, his tens of thousands of people will be cut off from Jingzhou.

At that time, it lost contact with the hinterland of Jiangdong, and it was difficult to ensure internal chaos.

Arranged for the most elite car to accompany the tiger soldiers, and Sun Quan gradually felt at ease.

Then, he looked sideways at Pan Zhang, pondered for a moment, and said:

"Wen Tai, you also went east with the army to follow Ziming to capture the Lukou camp."

"Zhang will live up to the ...... of the lord and father-in-law" As soon as these words fell, Lu Meng in the hall suddenly shrank his pupils, and then interrupted Pan Zhang's words, and quickly bowed his hand and said:

"Pan Zhang's previous violation of the general's order and the unauthorized slaughter of the people of Jingzhou caused our side to lose the hearts and minds of the people, and the last general will not be able to control this person, I hope that the lord can send another faction to help."

With a word, he pleaded truthfully.

Lu Meng could also understand in his heart Sun Quan's intention of sending Pan Zhang with the army, which was nothing more than to give him the opportunity to make meritorious contributions.

However, when he remembered the siege of Gangneung, the secret agents he had assigned in the city spontaneously organized the Self-Defense Force to patrol day and night to maintain law and order.

The strategy of convincing the families to revolt and create chaos in the city was difficult.

The root cause of all this is that Pan Zhang slaughtered the people west of Zhangshui.

Otherwise, how could they arouse the hostility of the people of Jingzhou.

As soon as he remembered that he could have been able to break through Jiangling through secret agents, Pan Zhang's unauthorized slaughter shattered his hope of taking it.

Lu Meng was inexplicably irritable in his heart at this time, and his hatred for him was undiminished, so he decisively rejected his entourage.

Pan Zhang on the side was ready to accept the order with joy, but he didn't expect Lu Meng to refuse him to join the army so resolutely, and there was a cold look in his eyes for a while, quite hateful.

"Wen Tai's courage is unstoppable, and with his assistance, he can quickly recapture the Lukou camp."

"This time, we should focus on the overall situation, and Ziming should not be rash."

Sun Quan's ability to observe words and emotions is outstanding, and at this time he has noticed that the contradiction between the two is gradually becoming acute, and he hurriedly makes peace from it.

When these words fell, Lu Meng knew that the lord was determined to make him follow the army, and his face showed a thick solemnity, and he arched his hand:

"In this case, please ask the lord to let him stay in the public security guard."

"Ziming ......"

Seeing that he was still unwilling to compromise, Sun Quan's expression turned cold, and his tone was mixed with a little anger.

Seeing this, Lu Meng quickly clenched his fists and explained, "Don't be angry, Meng's meaning is that this time the army will go east to recover the lost territory, but Jiangling City, which is located upstream, has to be guarded!" ”

"Now Guan Yu's reinforcements have returned, and there are more than 10,000 garrisons on the north bank."

"If you don't leave enough soldiers to guard the public security, you will be relieved, and you will be worried that it will be difficult to resist the counterattack of the Jingzhou army."

"Before the Lukou camp is recaptured, and before the downstream situation is completely controlled, the public security city must not be lost!"

After that, Lu Meng paused, and proposed very solemnly:

"Zhu Ran has been ordered, and Sun Jiaoer will send boats and boats to cruise the river and always pay attention to the dynamics on the north bank, so why don't you ask Pan Wentai to assist the garrison public security and make meritorious contributions?"

When these words fell, Sun Quan's face turned cloudy and sunny after hearing this, and then he solemnly thought about this plan.

After most of the time, he said in a deep voice, "Good! Wen Tai, you lead the headquarters to stay behind and be responsible for the defense of the public security city. ”

"Yes,"

When Pan Zhang heard the news, he looked at Lu Meng with a rather unkind look, but he also knew that Wu Hou was already quite kind to him, so he quickly surrendered his hand.

After receiving the order, Lu Meng and Zhou Taizuo said goodbye and left.

Next, the main forces of the Wu army were assembled at the dock one after another.

Later, Lu Meng led more than 10,000 elites to take fighting ships, and Meng Mo and other ships went down the river.

The remaining more than 10,000 people were defending against the public security and holding on across the river from Gangneung.

There are still several large building ships docked in the port, and the defensive strength is still not to be underestimated!

Under the command of Lu Meng, all the warships set sail one after another and went straight down the river.

……

At this time, outside the Lukou camp, there was already a sound of fighting.

I saw that under the command of Lu Xun in the center, he took a warship along the river and launched an attack on the water camp on the bank of the river.

Wave after wave of offensives were like a tide, and Huo Yi was simply prepared in advance and had the materials for defending the city that Wu soldiers had hoarded before.

At this time, the arrows on the river are constantly intertwined.

Huo Yi stood in the camp at this time, watching the offensive of the Wu army on the periphery with a face like water, calmly wielding his sword to command the defense, and repelling several attacks of the Wu soldiers in a row.

Lukou is difficult to conquer for a while!
