Chaisang, this is the front of the battle line adjacent to Jiangdong and Jingzhou.

At this moment, one by one the warships in Jiangdong have gathered here, and the forces of all parties have begun to gather, and the whole situation is in the process of gaining momentum.

is the chief general, who is the eldest son of Jiangdong, Sun Ce, who is known as the little overlord in Jiangdong, Sun Bofu.

Sun Ce joined the army with his father when he was young, and went to the year to fight Jiaozhou alone, and almost knocked down the eastern part of Jiaozhou, although because of the terrain problems of Jiaozhou, and the intervention of all parties, which led to the capture of Zhangjin, but in Jiangdong, it can be regarded as quite a military achievement.

Now Sun Jian personally led his army north to participate in the campaign of the crusade.

In the territory of Jiangdong, it is natural to respect the grandson of the eldest prince.

As for the alliance between Jiangdong and Yizhou, as early as last year, Sun Jian had already decided, and he did not sign the alliance until this year, in fact, he wanted to delay Yizhou's time and give Jiangdong enough time to accumulate troops.

In Jiangdong's view, the enemy of this battle was not Liu Biao of Jingzhou, but Mujing of Yizhou.

It should not be a big problem to conquer Jingzhou.

The distribution of benefits is the most important thing.

If you are a little careless, you may even fight directly, and fight with Jingzhou, Jiangdong is confident, but if you start a war with the Yizhou herdsman, Jiangdong's confidence is not great, because back then, they lost once.

In the command camp of the Chinese army in Chaisang.

Sun Ce is wearing battle armor, majestic like a wild lion, standing in the first place, although he still looks a little childish, but his bearing has begun to transform, after last year's experience of being alone, he has begun to develop the momentum of the main general.

The main commander of one side, momentum is very important.

As the main general, it is difficult to be convincing if you have to suppress the generals and submit them, and if you don't have enough bearing.

Standing in front of the marching map of the screen, Sun Ce's sharp eyes swept over, and after half a ring, he spoke: "The news just came that Yizhou has already started, and it will go to Wuling in seven days!" ”

"What?"

"Conquered Wuling in seven days?"

"What about that?"

"It's incredible!"

"One county, more than ten county seats, conquering one in a day, it takes half a month, they can take Wuling in seven days, how terrifying is this combat power!"

When the Jiangdong generals heard this, they were somewhat frightened.

After all, the Shepherd's record was too shocking to them.

"In seven days, the herdsman army can capture Wuling, it must be a long time to prepare, if it doesn't move, it is enough, a movement is like thunder, and the autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves, it will definitely make people frightened, raise their hands and surrender!"

Zhou Yu analyzed it softly and said, "There is no need to be too surprised!" ”

"Even so, it must be the combat power of the herdsman army fierce enough to be able to do it!"

Deputy General Tai Shici said in a low voice: "The pastoral army should not be underestimated, we still have to be careful!" ”

"That's right!"

Sun Ce nodded: "The pastoral army is indeed not to be underestimated, we have suffered losses back then, we have suffered losses once, and we can't do it again for the second time, therefore, the biggest problem we face in attacking Jingzhou is not how to fight Jingzhou, but how to guard against the Yizhou herdsmen!" ”

"Now that Yizhou has taken the lead, we can't be idle!" Zhou Yu arched his hand, saluted Sun Ce, and said: "Eldest prince, now we have to send troops, since we have an alliance with Yizhou, at least in the covenant, we can't let them seize the handle!" ”

"Yes!"

Sun Ce nodded in agreement.

The cooperation with Yizhou was finalized by Sun Jian, but the specific implementation was handed over to himself by himself, Zhou Yu, and his father, and Sun Ce was very pressed, he couldn't do things by his own likes and dislikes, and everything had to be considered in the interests of Jiangdong.

At this time, Yizhou is an ally, so Jiangdong can't do anything to make an ally provoke.

"Ziyi!"

"In!"

"I order you to lead an army of 8,000 and immediately go up the river and go straight to Jiangxia!"

"A declaration of war?" Tai Shi Ci asked in a low voice.

"War without a declaration!"

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu replied in unison, and the two glanced at each other and laughed.

These Jiangdong twin walls all want to be together.

"Undeclared war?"

Tai Shi Ci pondered for a while and figured it out, at this time, declaring war, that is the time for Jingzhou to prepare, Jingzhou must be preparing for the battle to deal with Yizhou, and the defense of the east will be much shallow, which is the best opportunity for Jiangdong.

A chance to successfully capture Jiangxia.

Since Jiangdong has formed an alliance with Yizhou, Yizhou's declaration of war is actually Jiangdong's declaration of war, and there is no loss in the name of Jiangdong.

"Got it!"

Tai Shi Ci nodded and turned away.

…………………………

Two days later, under the pheasant county.

It belongs to Jiangxia County, but this is the handover of Jiangdong and Jingzhou, and it is in a contentious environment all the year round, so it can be regarded as a pass of the Yangtze River waterway regardless of the three things, whether it is from Jingzhou into Jiangdong, or from Jiangdong, it is impossible to bypass this pass.

Both sides have built a lot of water villages here.

In order to prevent the Jiangdong Army from suddenly moving north, Jingzhou was almost a ten-mile company camp, one water village after another, densely packed with water villages, forming a longitudinal defense line to guard the safety of the Yangtze River waterway.

At night, these water villages are quiet.

Although Jingzhou put the Jiangdong Army, but Jingzhou and Jiangdong rarely had large-scale battles broke out, in the past few years, Jiangdong was busy with internal campaigns, not many external campaigns, most of them to guard against the northern flank of Xuzhou.

And Jingzhou, in the face of the aggressiveness of the herdsmen, has been under great pressure, and there are no extra troops at all, and the war with Jiangdong is naturally a desperate hope to maintain a peaceful atmosphere.

All sides had troops to defend themselves, but they were not very well guarded.

Even the soldiers standing guard on the water village are also leaning on some of the buildings around them, crumbling up, a trace of summer wind blowing, making people's spirits even more sluggish, a little soldier, even leaning on the side, and falling asleep.

No one noticed that under the faint glimmer of fire, countless speedboats were approaching the water village.

In the night when you can't see your fingers, on a fighting ship.

Tai Shi Ci seemed to be hidden in the night, like a god of death, ready to harvest that delicious life.

"Remember, be fast!"

"Fight fast, withdraw quickly, don't hurt yourself!"

"It's southwesterly now, and it's just right!"

Tai Shici's deep voice was like the call of death.

"No!"

A group of Jiangdong military cadets responded one after another.

"Move!"

Tai Shici drew his sword and pointed ahead: "Kill it!" ”

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

In an instant, the fire on the river surface was magnificent, and the light entered the day, and the shouts of killing were like thunder in the nine heavens, roaring one after another.

"Enemy attack!"

"Hurry up, there are enemies!" “

The Jingzhou Army Water Village camp was in chaos all of a sudden.

"Burn!"

After the Jiangdong Navy rushed in, without saying a word, they smashed the jar of wine filled with tung oil into the building of the water village.

Raging!!!!

The flames of the fire soared so high that the bright light of the fire reflected half of the sky red........................

Jiangxia, Xiling.

State Pastoral Office.

With the collapse of the situation in Wuling and the opening of the second battle between the pastoral army and Jingzhou, the entire state pastoral government has become extremely busy.

"Lord, in fact, don't worry too much, our current strength should be no problem to deal with Yizhou!"

It was Zhang Yun who spoke.

Cai Mao, the general of the Jingzhou Army, currently needs to sit in Jingzhou City, Wuling has been breached, but it is only lost on land, and the location of Wuling is not very important in the war, in fact, it is not very important, if it is lost, it will be lost, but it is just a little unbearable, the key is the waterway.

The key to the waterway is in Jingzhou City.

Jingzhou Cheng is even a pass on the waterway, as long as this can be held, it is not so easy for the herdsmen to enter Jingzhou.

"The Yizhou Navy does not have much combat effectiveness, even if they open a gap from Wuling, if they want to drive straight in, it is still very troublesome, it is not so easy, and now Cai Dudu is sticking to Jingzhou City!"

Zhang Yun continued: "As long as he is there, Jingzhou City will definitely be safe, and when the time comes, we can slowly rush to the land and force them back!" ”

"It's not that simple!"

Kuai Liang said in a low voice: "At this time, it is by no means the best time to send troops, most of the main force of the pastoral army is not in Yizhou, and is fighting with the Xiliang army in the north, and at this time, they are fighting on two fronts, it is stupid, since they have sent troops, they must have something to rely on!" ”

"What to rely on?"

Someone asked in a low voice.

"I don't know!"

Kuai Liang replied bitterly.

If he had figured it out, he wouldn't have scratched his head here, and it was impossible for Yizhou to know that he was short of troops, and he would come thanklessly to provoke Jingzhou and lose his own troops.

"Could it be that Yizhou transferred their troops back from the northern front?"

Suddenly someone came up with the idea.

"He didn't dare!" Liu Biao replied in person, he was a little flustered at first, but as the lord of Jingzhou, he was calm and fast, analyzing the current situation in Jingzhou and Yizhou, he didn't think that Yizhou had the strength to fight with him.

So he thinks more that this is Yizhou scaring himself, Yizhou should want to take Wuling, if it is just so, Liu Biao will not panic, just Wuling, and he will not be heartbroken if he loses him.

He said in a deep voice: "Compared with my Jingzhou, he is more concerned about whether he can take the opportunity to defeat Dong Zhuo with one blow, which is more important, he should know very well!" ”

"But my lord, the shepherd army is menacing, so you must guard against it!"

A strategist said.

"Herald Wen Hire, lead the army back!" Liu Biao thought for a while and said, "Since Yizhou has given us a reason, we will justifiably withdraw from this crusade against Dong Zhuo, concentrate our forces, and fight with Yizhou!" ”

In the past, Jingzhou, heavy literature and light military, empty strength, but lack of military support, until the battle with the herdsman, was defeated by Mujing, shame and courage, began to train Jingzhou soldiers.

In order to train the elite Jingzhou soldiers, Liu Biao has made great efforts.

Jingzhou is the land of fish and rice, there is no shortage of grain, there is no shortage of population, if you want to train the army, you can still train it, in order to train the army, Liu Biao has paid a lot in the past few days, and even forcibly coerced some families to release their tenant long-term workers to serve as soldiers.

Today's Jingzhou has enough troops to fight Yizhou.

Following this trend, Liu Biao doesn't mind having a big battle with the herdsman, and it is best to regain the lost territory of Nanjun and recapture Xiangyang.

"It's a good idea to withdraw General Wenpin now!"

The generals somewhat agreed with Liu Biao's idea.

If you don't participate in the Central Plains War, you should take care of Jingzhou's affairs first, and now there is a justifiable reason that the herdsmen invaded Jingzhou, and Jingzhou withdrew its troops in order to protect itself, and no one could say anything.

"Report!"

The sudden rumbling sound seemed to make the sky of the governor's mansion tremble.

"Come in!"

Liu Biao frowned, he always felt that there was no good news, hearing this voice, most of them could be bad news, but the situation was bad, and it shouldn't be bad.

"Repay the Lord!"

The messenger scout walked in, bowed his head, and said: "Last night, the Jiangdong Army raided my Pheasant Water Village, and the soldiers of our army were caught off guard, and the Jiangdong Army even burned the company camp, resulting in the annihilation of our army's Water Village, and none of the 8,000 soldiers were spared!" ”

Above the lobby, when the generals heard the words, they looked at each other, and there was a dead silence, as if at this moment, none of them reacted.

"What ......"

When Liu Biao heard this, he stood up suddenly, and the booming sound seemed to be ringing next to his ears, and there was only a blank space left in his mind.

"Jiangdong Army?"

Kuai Liang finally reacted, with a crying and laughing expression on his face, and muttered to himself: "I see! ”

He cried and laughed, sarcastically mocking himself: "I'm smart all my life, why can't I imagine that Yizhou will form an alliance with Jiangdong!" ”

It's like a dead end.

I have always ignored this blind spot.

The Mu Army and the Jiangdong Army used to fight in Jiangdong, and they fought very fiercely, and it seemed that they were in Jiaozhou last year, and the two forces were also wrestling, from many angles, they were enemies, not friends.

Never thought about a single question.

In terms of their attitude towards Jingzhou, it is possible for them to form an alliance.

"Impossible!"

Liu Biao screamed: "How can Sun Wentai form an alliance with Mu Longtu, it's impossible!" ”

"Lord, it's possible!"

Kuai Liang was cold and silent very quickly, as a strategist, he never thought about his mistakes, but thought about how he should make up for his mistakes, he responded to Liu Biao in a low voice, just said two words: "Jingzhou!" ”

"Jingzhou?"

Liu Biao muttered to himself, laughing a little sarcastically: "Using a certain Jingzhou as a bargaining chip, they are really bold and calculating!" ”

If there is interest, we can cooperate.

As a prince, he was familiar with the rules of the game.

But what he didn't expect was that the interests of Jiangdong and Yizhou were actually Jingzhou, his Liu Biao's Jingzhou.

At this moment, his heart was really a little frightened.

If it's just against one side, he's still a little sure.

But Jiangdong and Yizhou, the two sides are combined, then he is not sure at all, because whether it is the Jiangdong Sun clan or the Yizhou pastoral army, in terms of troops, in terms of combat effectiveness, they are more powerful than his Jingzhou army.

How can he deal with this situation.

"I want to die!"

Liu Biao's face gradually became hideous, after being frightened, some people will collapse, but some people will bottom out, he Liu Jingsheng, who is also a generation of heroes, how can he be so defeated: "Then see who dies first!" ”

He stood up, his tall body, and a rising fighting spirit rose: "Everyone, now the shepherd thief and the Jiangdong Sun thief, Jingzhou of Tu Wu, how can we sit still and wait to die, and fight to the death in a certain decision, not to the death!" ”
