When Wen Ping led his troops to enter Shiyang City on the north bank of the river, this military situation had already spread all over the south bank of Jiangxia.

Huo Yi of Tunxiakou and Lu Meng of Jinkou both received the news and made their own preparations.

"Order all the officers and men in the camp to assemble and prepare to attack Xiakou along the river."

"General Chuanben ordered to go to Exian County to inform General Han that he was ready to sweep Jiang Xiaman, who was instigated on the south bank, at any time."

"This time, Cao's army has moved south, and the Jingzhou soldiers will fall into a stretched battle situation, which is a good opportunity for our army to break the predicament."

As soon as he received the military information, Lu Mengli groaned in the water village for a while, and he was already quickly waving his hand and issuing various military orders.

With a command, the Jinkou camp is also busy.

The various departments began to reorganize their armaments and overhaul large and small ships......

Back in Xiakou Water Village, Huo Yi also sent someone to send orders to the Fankou waters in the lower reaches of the river to order Guan Ping, who had reinforces the past, to act according to the original plan.

After receiving the military order, Guan Ping was not ambiguous at all, and the warships lined up along Fankou went deep with the intention of taking advantage of the situation to seize Exian.

This undoubtedly made the veteran Han Dangdu look uneasy, and quickly sent spies to report to Lu Meng to consult how to decide, and mobilized all the troops who were originally sent out to disperse and suppress the Jiangxia barbarians to protect Zhou Quan.

As Han Dang's military information came back, Lu Meng's eyebrows tightened, and he stared at the map with a solemn expression and muttered secretly:

"What kind of conspiracy is this kid Huo Yi doing?"

"Previously, when Cao Bing did not go south to threaten, he only sent a naval division into the waters of Fankou to respond to Jiangxia Man's containment of our army, and he did not have the intention of taking the initiative to attack."

"Why did Wen Ping stationed in Shiyang, which is only one river away, and instead ordered his subordinates to attack Exian on a large scale?"

"This doesn't make sense!"

There is a way that when things go wrong, there must be demons, and Lu Meng also had a suspicion in his heart when he heard the news.

He was also a little puzzled for a while, what was the other party's calculation?

"It stands to reason that with the coercion of Cao's soldiers, it is difficult for the Jingzhou army's troops to deal with our army and Cao's at the same time, so it is only right to shrink the defensive line, abandon Chaisang and vigorously strengthen the garrison of Xiakou, and defend the confrontation on the south bank of Jiangxia."

"Why do you want to attack Exian on a large scale and protect Chaisang to the death?"

After pondering for a long time, Lu Meng's pupils shrank, revealing a look of disbelief, and muttered: "Could it be that Huo Yi wants to make a desperate bet to go down the river to attack the land of Jiangdong and change homes with us?" ”

"Huo Yi really has so much courage to carry out this strategy of changing homes?"

After a long groan, Lu Meng boldly guessed the purpose of the Jingzhou army's vigorous advance into Exian County.

"Ordering the cruise ships on the river, it is necessary to keep an eye on the movements of Xiakou Water Village at all times, and report it quickly once there is an intention to transfer troops to leave."

"Order General Han to strengthen the defense of Exian County, not to let the city fall, and at the same time to always pay attention to Jiang Xiaman's movements."

After thinking for a long time, Lu Meng gave an order.

Now that the enemy situation is unknown, seeing Huo Yi's hypothetical strategy, he did not act rashly but prepared to respond to all changes with no change.

When the Jingzhou soldiers are found, they will attack.

Exian County was threatened, and the news of the strategy of the Lü Meng Department of the Jinkou Battalion in the south to adopt the strategy of holding on to the army reached Xiakou, and Huo Yi, who was making tea in the water village, heard the news, and the smile on his face became stronger.

"It seems that Lu Meng was confused by my false and real strategy, and he didn't dare to act rashly for the time being."

He muttered, lifted the teapot that exuded wisps of heat and poured it into the teacup, and then sprinkled a few tea leaves into the cup, and said slowly:

"With Lu Meng's intelligence, I am afraid that the feint attack on Exian County will be discovered in a few days, and it seems that the strategy of a surprise attack on the north bank of Jiangxia must be implemented immediately."

After a little groaning, Huo Yi established a plan for an immediate attack.

"Order the major general to quickly and quietly march into the army as planned."

"Whoa."

As soon as the military order was given, the attendant standing beside him quickly went to deliver the order.

After giving the instructions, Huo Yi picked up the freshly brewed hot tea, gently blew the steaming teacup, and then took a sip of his face and looked at the north side of the turbulent river with a faint face, and muttered:

"Wen Ping, Wen Ping, you want to assist the Wu people to form a coercive trend against our army?"

"But if Ben will steal your family, how will you deal with it?"

When these words fell, his eyes were full of anticipation, and while staring at the river outside the camp, he was wrapped in a cotton jacket and sipping hot tea.

On the north bank of Jiangxia, Shiyang City.

In the military palace.

A middle-aged general was sitting at his desk dealing with official business, and then he was distracted and listened to the scouts planted in the hall reporting on the military situation in recent days.

Halfway through hearing this, Wen Ping suddenly raised the prime minister and asked, "You said that the king sent General Zhang Wenyuan, and Zhao Yilang led his troops south along Zhangling County to reinforce our army?" ”

"General Qiyuwen is exactly like this, according to the news, the front of the reinforcements has reached the territory of Suixian."

"That's good!"

Hearing this, Wen Ping's originally tense face suddenly loosened, and he relaxed a little:

"This time, I was ordered by the king to go south to assist the Wu people to coerce the Jingzhou soldiers and help them get out of the predicament, and the general was most worried about the safety of the rear."

"Now that General Zhang and his reinforcements have arrived, there is no need to worry."

As soon as these words fell, the general from the side looked suspicious and asked: "According to the military situation, there are only more than 20,000 Jingzhou soldiers stationed in Xiakou on the south bank. ”

"Let's stay in Shiyang, the enemy army wants to defend the Wu army in the south, defend our army in the north, and still have the spare strength to sneak attack my rear?"

"The heart of guarding against others is indispensable, and the heart of harming others is indispensable."

Unexpectedly, Wen Ping's face was quite calm when he heard the news, and he responded: "Isn't that Huo Yi's record in recent days worth thinking about?" ”

"Defeated Lu Meng, the confidant of the Jiangdong Guozhu under the command of Sun Quan, the lord of Wu."

"Are you sure that you will fight with Lu Ziming and fight even faster?"

As soon as these words fell, the two sides of the hall were silent.

The generals and schools stopped talking, they had been stationed on the north bank of Jiangxia for a long time, and naturally they knew a lot about General Wu, who was only separated by a river.

In their eyes, Lu Meng is by no means an idle person!

Seeing that all the generals were silent, Wen Ping responded with a solemn face, "Although Huo Yi is young, he can defeat Lu Meng several times, and strategically lead the Wu army away, and successfully lead the battlefield from Jiangling to the land on the south bank of Jiangxia. ”

"For this reason alone, this son must be exceptional."

"Our main force is now stationed in Shiyang, and there are only more than 1,000 people in Anlu in the rear, so we still have to beware of the surprise attack of Jingzhou soldiers!"

As soon as these words came out, the general said in a deep voice, "But there are only two roads from the south bank to the north bank, right?" ”

"First, enter the Hanshui from Xiakou and land along Hanjin, but this waterway is about to pass under our army, how can the enemy warships hide it?"

"The other is from the east of the river landing, but Xiling is under the control of the Wu people, we are now in a temporary cooperative relationship with Jiangdong, they will definitely not let it go, right?"

As the generals under his command explained the changes in the current situation word by word, Wen Ping listened to it, and said in a slightly cautious tone:

"The enemy is cunning, we should be careful!"

"Send additional scouts to inspect the east of Anlu, and beware of Jingzhou soldiers raiding the rear of our army along Xiling."

"Yes,"
