Chapter 291: Change of Commander

The soldiers of the Wu army were fortunate to be able to escape from death, but Zhuge Ke did not have time to rejoice, he had to readjust the strategic deployment to cope with the changes in the situation.

The loss of the ghost sorrowful stream means that the Wei army has completely opened up the stone road, as long as Sima Yi is willing, he can wave his army south, pass through the stone pavilion, and go straight to the important town of Wancheng.

Once Anhui City is lost, it means that Dongwu will lose the land of Jiangbei, and the Wei army can drink the Yangtze River, and the consequences are unimaginable.

Therefore, after Zhuge Ke arrived at the trailer, the first thing he thought about was how to guard to Anhui City, which was a top priority.

Previously, Sun Quan had come to Wancheng to personally supervise the battle, but after the battle line was pushed to the first line of Jiashi, Zhuge Ke strongly persuaded Sun Quan to return to Jianye, because it was too close to the front line, and once the Jiashi defense line was lost, Sun Quan's situation in Wancheng would be much more critical.

Facts have proved that Zhuge Ke's concern is still extremely correct, if Sun Quan is still in Wancheng, presumably Sima Yi will not easily let go of this opportunity, and will definitely send light cavalry to attack Wancheng.

And now, Sima Yi will think a little more, he has just taken the ghost sorrow stream, and his foothold is not stable, so he naturally can't easily march, after all, he still has to guard against the two Wu troops of Tianzhu Mountain and the trailer, once the Wei army penetrates into the Wu realm, it is also extremely dangerous to be cut off by the Wu army.

Of course, after opening up the stone road, as long as the conditions are ripe, Sima Yi will definitely go south to take Wancheng.

Therefore, Zhuge Ke learned from the pain and put his primary energy on the defense of Anhui City.

Originally, the two groups of men and horses sent by Quan Cong and Buqi were to assist in the defense of the Jiashi Road, and not to give the Wei army the opportunity to march in a roundabout way from the east and west, but after the Jiashi was lost, it was no longer meaningful to garrison Tianzhu Mountain and trailers.

So after Zhuge Ke and Buqi discussed, they decided to leave a small number of troops in the trailer, and most of the main force went south to Shiting to build a defense line in Shiting to block the Wei army's attempt to attack Anhui City in the south.

At the same time, he also had a ward of Quan Cong, asking him to withdraw his troops from Tianzhu Mountain, return to Longfeng, and form a horn with the Wei army in Shiting to defend Anhui City.

The war extended from the territory of Wei to the territory of Wu, and the Wu army was also forced to switch from attack to defense, and the change in the situation made Sun Quan very annoyed, and naturally he would inevitably be angry with Zhuge Ke, and many ministers of the DPRK and China had impeached Zhuge Ke, so Sun Quan issued an order to remove Zhuge Ke from the post of governor, and Zhu Ran, who had retreated from Jingzhou, served as the governor of Jiangbei.

However, Sun Quan did not delve into Zhuge Ke's responsibility, let alone completely abandon Zhuge Ke, and asked him to move to Chaisang and worship as the governor of Jiangxi.

Perhaps emotionally speaking, Zhuge Jin died in the king's affairs this time, so that Sun Quan was embarrassed to punish Zhuge Ke more.

Secondly, although Zhuge Ke was defeated this time, he has always acted in accordance with Sun Quan's will, and if he completely denies what Zhuge Ke did, it will be tantamount to slapping Sun Quan in the face.

Therefore, Sun Quan's board seemed to be raised high, but it fell gently, and the punishment was painless.

But for Zhuge Ke, it was deeply distressing, he was ready to do a big job, but in the end, he had to leave Shiting with the regret that his ambitions were unpaid, and led the army to Chaisang to take office.

Zhuge Ke originally had high hopes for this war, and if he wanted to stand out in the political arena of Wu, he had to make achievements in this war.

Zhuge Ke did his best, he tried hard to fight this battle, exhausted his efforts, and tried his best, but what he encountered was an old fox like Sima Yi who had been fighting on the battlefield for a long time and was full of foresight and wisdom, compared with Sima Yi, Zhuge Ke was still much more tender after all.

Being young has to pay a price, it is to pay tuition, and in several battles with Sima Yi, Zhuge Ke is still completely at a disadvantage, and now, he has to admit that his opponent's old spiciness and scheming, he is indeed willing to bow down.

But is Zhuge convinced? No, he was not convinced at all, although he suffered a big defeat in Jiashi Road, but after Zhuge Ke shrank his forces to the line of Shiting and Longfeng, he still put on a posture of swearing to the decisive battle of the Wei army, and those who fell from there had to get up from there, how could Zhuge Ke easily admit defeat.

However, a holy decree by Sun Quan made Zhuge Ke's enthusiasm come to naught.

Although Zhuge Ke was not surprised by Sun Quan's decision at all, after such a big defeat, Sun Quan did not dismiss him from his post and investigate him but transferred him to another county, which is already considered an extrajudicial favor.

This may be because Sun Quan remembered Zhuge Jin's old feelings, so he did not impose heavy penalties on Zhuge Ke, and at the same time, Sun Quan also appeased those dove ministers in the court, you know, because of the failure of the Northern Expedition, the impeachment of Zhuge Ke in the DPRK and China has been piled up, and Sun Quan can no longer ignore the opinions of these ministers.

For the purpose of appeasement, Sun Quan must definitely give an explanation to some old Jiangdong ministers, and Zhuge Ke naturally knows his fate.

Leaving the stone pavilion gloomily, looking back at the north, Zhuge Ke was also full of emotion, one day, he will come back, and in the future, it must not be such a scene today.

Replacing Zhuge Ke, it was the cavalry general Zhu Ran, originally in the battle of the Northern Expedition, Zhu Ran played the role of soy sauce, he was ordered to lead an army of 20,000 to attack Fancheng, a clear glance, you know that Zhu Ran led by a partial division, used to contain the troops in Jingzhou in Wei, so that they dare not look east.

Although it was a partial division, Zhu Ran fought the same well, Zhu Ran adopted the strategy of Zhu Yi, the commander of the cavalry, to break the Wei army in the periphery of Fancheng, and directly approached the city of Fancheng, causing the world to shake.

Jingzhou Assassin Shi Hu Zhen advanced lightly and urgently reinforced Fancheng, which made Fancheng turn the corner.

Later, the Wu army was unfavorable in Huainan, so Sun Quan ordered Zhu Ran to give up attacking Fancheng and turn to Qichun, ready to reinforce Huainan at any time.

After Zhuge Ke's defeat at Jiashi, Zhu Ran was appointed by Sun Quan as the governor of Jiangbei to lead the troops on the front line.

Zhu Ran rushed from Qichun to Wancheng and took over the position of governor of Jiangbei.

Now the situation faced by the Wu army is quite severe, and the loss of Jiashi has made Anhui lose a natural barrier, and it is in a position where the Wei army can attack at any time.

Although Shiting and Longfeng can garrison troops, their danger is naturally not as good as that of Jiashi, and these two places are too close to Wancheng, so that the Wu army has completely lost its strategic depth.

How to defend the first important town in Jiangbei, now the burden is completely on Zhu Ran's shoulders.
