Where did the grain and grass come from? Where did the courage come from? Sun Fu thought about it, but he didn't know what the problem was.

Could it be that Li Miao is stupid.

"Yuan sigh, according to your opinion, are we going to send troops to attack Li Miao?" Sun Quan did not answer Sun Fu's words, but turned his head and asked a famous scholar beside him, this person was dressed in ordinary scribe robes, but his gestures made people feel as if everything was under control.

This person is Gu Yong, a more famous strategist in Eastern Wu, Gu Yong is a disciple of Cai Yong, a major minister of Wu in the later period, a politician, and of course, now he is just a virtuous person recommended by Sun Quan. In other words, our Gu Yongtong shoes are mainly based on Sun Ce, but they are the people who are installed in our Sun Quan children's shoes.

If you want to say why Gu Yong is Sun Quan's children's shoes, this question has to be started when Gu Yong defected to Sun Ce from Wang Lang's command, Gu Yong knew that Sun Ce always acted alone, and usually didn't even bring a servant when hunting, Gu Yong was very worried, so he said to Sun Ce, "The lord has a heavy responsibility, and he must not travel alone to prevent accidents." ”

Sun Ce said disdainfully at the time, "What Yuan Si said is very true, but when I travel alone, I can think about things quietly." ”

Gu Yong frowned and said, "Lord, when the White Snake traveled alone, he was killed by Han Gaozu, you ......"

Sun Ce laughed, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

So, Gu Yong predicted that Sun Ce would have a problem, and secretly contacted Sun Quan, but Gu Yong has always been low-key, so Sun Ce didn't know very well.

"My lord, in Yong's opinion, Li Miao must be in strict battle, so he must not act recklessly. Hearing Sun Quan's question, Gu Yong sighed, and then whispered to Sun Quan, "And if the lord acts recklessly, I am afraid that it will arouse the suspicion of the eldest prince." ”

Gu Yong knew very well that on such a matter of principle, Sun Ce would not make the slightest concession.

Sun Quan smiled bitterly and nodded. "Then, according to what Mr. Yuanxian said, now it seems that the news of my eldest brother's side is about to come over. ”

Gu Yong didn't dare to talk, and said in a condensed voice.

"My lord, Huainan Li Miao, since you dare to form an alliance with Jiangxia Huangzu. It shows that Li Miao has hole cards, and in Yongzhi's opinion, Li Miao may also have an alliance with Cao Cao, so let's wait for the news from the eldest prince's side. ”

"In Yongzhi's opinion, not to conflict with Li Miao for the time being is the most important thing. Although Gu Yong is close to Sun Quan, he still doesn't have the courage to persuade Sun Quan to betray Sun Ce, he is just betting on it, because Sun Ce is stubborn and self-serving in some things. For example, when it comes to traveling alone.

Sun Quan nodded, he knew that what Gu Yong said was correct.

Two days later, Sun Jing led 3,000 soldiers and horses to march into the south bank of the Yangtze River, camped and garrisoned, and faced Wancheng across the river.

Sun Ce sent a hurried report to Sun Quan's hands, and after reading Sun Ce's letter, Sun Quan lined up to greet him, but did not take the initiative to attack.

It's all because of Sun Ce's plan based on intelligence.

"Are you finally going to fight Huang Zu to the death? Sun Quan squinted his eyes and muttered to himself, he knew that as long as Jiangxia was defeated this time, the next battle would be to capture Huainan in one fell swoop. , a war, is ready to start, Sun Quan knows that this time his brother Sun Ce is Huainan and Jiangxia have a real fire, under the leadership of Zhou Yu, he will definitely launch a battle that will make the princes of the world look sideways.

"Pass my military order, and the whole army will be ready for battle!" Sun Quan ordered more than 10,000 men and horses under his command to be repaired, he had to wait for the results of the Jiangxia war, and he also had to wait for Han Dang and Cheng Puer to be generals in the future.

Considering that Han Dang and Cheng Pu took over the division of military power, which contained another meaning, Sun Quan could only smile bitterly.

"If it weren't for my mother, would you put me under house arrest?" the young Sun Quan's heart was full of bitterness.

The princes' families, the families of the Son of Heaven, are there no family affections?

But Sun Quan believes that if he is in charge, he will not break family ties and interests so bluntly.

When Gu Yong saw Sun Quan's appearance, he seemed to understand Sun Quan's thoughts, but Gu Yong knew that he was thinking too much......

Jiangdong Sun Ce's revenge anger became more and more intense, just two days after Zhou Yu's strategy, Sun Ce began to order Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin to be the vanguard, leading the Jiangdong Naval Division, large and small ships, fighting ships, and dozens of ships to launch a surprise attack on the Sanjiangkou Water Village in Jiangxia.

There are two building ships, each carrying about 700 people, five fighting ships, each carrying 300 people, 15 ships, each carrying about 150 people, and more than 20 boats, each of which has about 30 people, equivalent to the vanguard of 6,000 sailors.

Su Fei, as the governor of Jiangxia Sailor, knew that Zhou Yu was accustomed to using tricks, retreating again and again, and restricting his subordinates from fighting with Sun Ce's soldiers and horses, the sailor was still a small fight, and the losses were not heavy, Su Fei's unscrupulous policy also gave our Zhou Yu a headache, and even had the idea of letting Sun Ce subdue him, because Su Fei should be a good guard of the Sailor Governor.

Although Sun Ce only attacked tentatively, Liu Biao of Jingzhou was already restless, he already knew that Sun Ce was stationed in Jiangxia but did not return to his Jiangdong, and even Sun Quan was stationed south of the Yangtze River, and he did not fight with Li Miao, Liu Biao knew that Sun Ce was ruthless, and he would not give up if he did not capture Jiangxia.

This is his own east gate, if he is attacked by Sun Ce, I am afraid that his Jingzhou will fall into continuous war.

But Uncle Liu Huang, who was once one of the eight horses, no longer has the ambition of the year, he wants to stay in Jingzhou to be a safe and stable duke, Sun Ce and Sun Bofu's combat power He knows, except for the last time Huang Zu Shui Shi ambushed Peng Ze's defenders, Jiangdong almost never tasted defeat.

Of course, the news of the intelligence transmission, Huainan Li Miao's capture of Anhui City, should be regarded as an eye medicine for Sun Ce.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Sun Ce is menacing, and the back road is cut off by Huainan Li Miao and he will not send troops to help, you say, what does Sun Ce mean by this?!" Liu Biao's skin was already sallow, his beard was slightly gray, he snorted coldly, and said expressionlessly.

Although Liu Biao was very worried about Sun Ce's march, Liu Biao still looked indifferent, as the lord, her momentum of not being angry and arrogant had already been cultivated, and she didn't have to deliberately pretend at all.

The subordinates looked at each other, and no one spoke.

It's not that they all feel that they can't beat Sun Ce, it's just because now in Sun Ce's opinion, it is to destroy Jiangxia first, and then map Huainan, everyone can see it clearly, Jiangxia and Jiangdong Sun Ce have a bitter hatred, Huang Zu has 30,000 heavy troops, dominating the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, as the east gate of Jingzhou, no one dares to criticize himself, in case of defeat, who can afford the responsibility?

Liu Biao didn't know that the civil and military forces under his command had begun to be afraid now, the Jiangdong Army had been fighting with Shanyue for a long time, and those Shanyue in Jiaozhou were so brave, Sun Ce's soldiers and horses had already been trained like steel, who would dare to pick up the tiger's whiskers.

Except for some generals of the main station, the rest of the people were thinking about Sun Ce's intentions.

"Don't you have anything to say?" Liu Biao's brows were twisted together, and he seemed to see the prevarication of his subordinates.

"Lord, in good opinion, Sun Ce is bound to attack Jiangxia, and he must send a general to take over. Kuai Liang had a righteous and awe-inspiring attitude, "Liang is willing to represent the lord and go to Jiangxia to supervise the battle." ”

Kuai Liang knew that Jiang Xia was on the verge of life and death, Sun Ce's statement had already shown an ultimatum to Jiang Xia, and Kuai Liang knew that Liu Biao had reached the juncture of the final order, and if it was too late, no one could afford it.

When Liu Biao saw Kuai Liang's appearance, his tears of emotion were about to fall, and he quickly helped Kuai Liang's arm and said, "Zirou, in your opinion, Huang Zu may have the possibility of victory this time." ”

Not to mention the civil and military, even Liu Biao has no hope for Huang Zu, after all, Sun Ce's soldiers and horses, whether they are the navy or other arms, are too powerful, Jingzhou has always been comfortable, and the training soldiers will not go into battle, but they will fall inferior, and Sun Ce is killed with three thousand soldiers and horses.

"My lord, between Yiliang, I'm afraid the odds of winning are less than thirty percent. ”

Cai Mao and Zhang Yun on the side sneered, Sancheng, in their opinion, with the little soldiers and horses under Huang Zu's account, there is no chance of even one percent, and it depends on the current Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, and Huang Gai under Sun Ce's command, and under Huang Zu, Su Fei is the only one who can go into battle shirtless.

Liu Biao shook his head and thought for a moment, as if he was considering what Kuai Liang said, but he couldn't wait to send reinforcements to Jiangxia, and after a while, Liu Biao determined the candidate, and said to the Wen Wu under the account, "Where is Wen Ping?"

At this time, a man with sallow skin and a well-proportioned figure wearing battle armor stepped out, and the waist knife at his waist clanged against the armor, and Wen Ping clasped his fists and saluted, "Lord." ”

Liu's surface tended to calm down, stroked his beard, and said loudly, "Wen Ping, you quickly gather 10,000 soldiers and horses and go to Jiangxia to aid Huang Zu, there must be no mistake!"

Wen Ping is one of the main battle factions, he has been watching the people and horses under the accounts of the rest of the princes in Jingzhou, and he is unwilling in his heart, he has a place to use at this moment, and he is still hand-picked by the lord himself, Wen Ping is not nervous at all, but he has never been excited!

Hearing Liu Biao's appointment, Wen Ping had no sadness or joy on his face, and saluted with his fists, "Yes, Lord!", Kuai Yue suddenly stood up, "Lord, there are scouts in Jingzhou City who are spreading the news of the alliance between the Lord and Huainan Li Miao, and scolding the Lord for working with the anti-thief, lest it be Jiangdong Sun Ce's counter-plan." ”

Hearing his younger brother bring up this matter, Kuai Liang also stood up and said to Liu Biao, "Lord, Jiangxia Su Fei and Sun Ce have been holding each other for half a month, except for the defeat of Zhou Yu at the beginning of the yellow shooting, they have not suffered major casualties, this is definitely Zhou Yu Sun Ce's countermeasure, and I hope that the lord will be aware of it." ”

Liu Biao nodded, indicating that he knew, but did not say what to do about this matter.

Seeing this, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun glanced at each other and said to Liu Biao, "Lord, whether it is the enemy's counter-plan or not, the reputation of the lord cannot be discredited." ”

"Yes, uncle. Liu Pan clasped his fists and saluted, "After all, Huainan Li Miao is the son of a thief, and the alliance with him also gives Xu Du Cao Cao a reason, if Cao Cao points at Jingzhou after a battle with Li Shao, it is inappropriate." ”

Liu Biao was silent, what Liu Pan said was the most important, as for the reputation of the Han imperial uncle, it was important, but it was not just Zhou Yu's counter-tactics that could be discredited, even if Huang Zu really had an alliance with Huainan Li Miao, Jingzhou would just turn a blind eye, and the princes of the world would stand side by side, and the ancestors' strategy of combining vertical and horizontal was still useful.

The key is Cao Cao, Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, who do you want to fight to let the emperor draw up a holy decree, if you don't obey, you will be disrespectful to the decree, and you will fight! But Jingzhou has no handle to grasp, and with Cao Cao's current strength, there is no way to fight Jingzhou. But it's a bit tricky to give the handle.

"My lord, Mao has a plan. Cai Mao pretended to think for a moment, her eyes turned around suspiciously, and said to Liu Biao.

"Say it quickly. "Liu Biao is still very fond of his relative, after all, he is the boss of the Cai family, and he can also see the combat ability of commanding troops.

Cai Mao said loudly, "My lord, you might as well step down from Su Fei's position as the governor, but let Su Fei control the transfer of the water division." ”

Liu Biao thought for a moment and felt that this plan was feasible, so that he could avoid others poking his backbone and scolding him.

Cai Mao said again, "Lord, Jiangdong's soldiers and horses are brave, in my opinion, in addition to Wen Zhongye, you might as well send another army and horse to Jiangxia to fight Jiangdong to the death!"

Liu Biao thought about it, even if Wen Ping led 10,000 soldiers and horses to help in the battle, he would still be equal to the enemy in terms of the number of soldiers and horses, and it would not be impossible to send another army and horses.

"My lord, what General Cai said is very true. ”

In this way, Liu Biao finally made up his mind, but if the sailor is a sailor, there is really no one who can be directly competent, Liu Biao pondered.

Cai Mao clenched his fists, "Lord, there are still 30,000 horses under Zhang Yun's account." ”

In fact, Zhang Yun's 30,000 horses are his Cai Mao's 30,000 horses, the two of them have always worn a pair of pants, because Zhang Yun is Cai Mao's brother-in-law, but Zhang Yun is indeed a talent, at least he can still be in charge of the army, this time Cai Mao and Zhang Yun discussed sending troops to Jiangxia to occupy a place in Jiangxia.

Liu Biao is already old, and there are no years to live, although everyone doesn't say it in front of them, but they will always make some small moves in private, Liu Biao's second is Liu Cong, who is Cai Mao's nephew, how can he not leave a road for Liu Cong and pave a broad road.

Liu Qi is more miserable, because Liu Qi does not have the support of the big family, although the Kuai family and the Cai family sometimes disagree because of certain policies, but the two families can stand on the same front at any time for the sake of interests, and the Huang family is different, so Cai Mao's idea is to wear small shoes for the Huang family in Jiangxia, and Huang Zu will not interfere when Liu Cong ascends the throne in the future.

Of course, this is just a special purpose, the important thing is that Jiangxia has two important places, Chibi and Shiyang, with Cai Mao's idea, he will always win one in his hands, and Zhang Yun is the best candidate.

When Liu Biao heard Cai Mao's words, he nodded and said, "Where is Zhang Yun?"

Zhang Yun showed a meaningful smile and came out to salute Liu Biao.

Liu Biao said lightly, "Zhang Yun, you led 15,000 soldiers and horses to Jiangxia to help, and Su Fei was unrestrained, if you have any plans, you must contact Zirou in case of accidents, you know?"

After finishing speaking, Liu Biao turned to look at Kuai Yue again, "Alien, you and Zhang Yun will go to Jiangxia to help in the battle, and you must make the young people in Jiangdong feel pain!"

Kuai Yue is different from his brother, he is very unhappy with Sun Ce's march, and he has long wanted to go out to fight with him, this time he happened to get an opportunity, Kuai Yue naturally will not refuse.

Zhang Yun almost jumped up excitedly when he heard that he and Su Fei were intemperate, because he preferred that he could lead some soldiers and horses alone, and if Su Fei controlled him, I am afraid it would not be so comfortable.
