"Woo! --Woo! Woo! ”

On the wide Han River, hundreds of Jiangdong Army warships - breaking the wind and waves, going upstream, aiming directly at Xiangyang City, and then watching from the shore - flags fluttering, swords and guns flashing, and horses and infantry armies are also on the march!

This time to attack Jingzhou, Jiangdong dispatched 120,000 horses and horses, along the Han River to the west, along the way with great momentum, but the speed of the march was extremely slow!

In the early autumn season, the rain continues, the water level of the Han River soars a lot, pouring downstream, the Jiangdong warship goes against the water, the wind direction is also extremely unfavorable, the speed is naturally very slow, when encountering the rapids and rapids, you still need to drag the slender man to the past!

When the main force of Cao's army withdrew from Xiangyang, the roads and bridges on both sides of the Han River were completely destroyed, and the Jiangdong army could only advance westward while building roads, which was naturally difficult to move step by step.

"Order the officers and men of all departments to speed up the march, and then there will be those who delay - beheading!"

"No!"

On the pure white Yuhuang boat, Zhou Yu stood on a high place, raised his eyes and looked around, urging the army to speed up, but his voice was a little hoarse, and his originally handsome face also showed a little haggard!

In the previous battle of Wulin, Zhou Yu miscalculated everywhere and lost his troops, so that he was in a hurry, vomited blood and fell into a coma, but fortunately, Lang Zhong was treated in time and recuperated for more than a month, which only improved slightly!

This time to attack the nine counties of Jingzhou, Sun Quan and the civil and military consulted, originally wanted to let Cheng Pu and Han Dang, the two veterans, command the troops, but after Zhou Yu knew, he forced the sick body to enter the account and argue, and took down the power of commanding the army!

It's not that Zhou Yu is greedy for merit, but this western expedition is too important, related to the rise and fall of the Jiangdong Group, and the situation in Jingzhou is too complicated, not only to fight against the enemy, but also to guard against the allies, ordinary people can't deal with it!

Although Cheng Pu and Han Dang are battlefield generals, they are more than brave and brave, and the art of war is insufficient.

"My husband is not healed, don't work too hard, after using the decoction, let's go back to the cabin and rest!"

"I was entrusted by Bo Fu on his deathbed, and I didn't dare to relax for a moment, and no one else could shoulder the burden of attacking Jingzhou - this medicine is so bitter!"

"Good medicine is good for disease, husband drink it while it's hot, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and millions of people in Jiangdong still have to rely on the tiger's might!"

"Good medicine cures diseases, good ministers govern the country, there are British lords and famous generals in Jiangdong, and there is a lack of a good minister who governs the country in Anbang!"

……………………

A shadow walked out of the cabin, and it was the beautiful Mrs. Xiao Qiao, holding a bowl of black and steaming soup!

In addition, Mrs. Xiao Qiao's abdomen is bulging, she has been pregnant for more than six months, and she should have stayed in the rear to recuperate, but she was worried about her husband's illness, so she insisted on going out with the army, and she also made a decoction with her own hands!

Zhou Yu took the medicine bowl with both hands, and wanted to drink it all, but the decoction was too hot and bitter, and he couldn't put it in his mouth for a long time, so he could only drink it when it was a little cold!

While waiting, Zhou Yu reached out to caress his wife's lower abdomen, feeling the fetal movement inside, a sense of happiness filled his heart, and his handsome face, which was originally as pale as paper, lacked a little ruddyness.

Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao have two sons, this child hopes to be a daughter, then both children and daughters, and Sun Ce was married at the beginning, if you give birth to a daughter, you can marry Sun Shao, and it can be regarded as the completion of the marriage promise!

When Sun Ce was alive, he made a big plan with Zhou Yu: take Jiangdong as the foundation, enter the nine counties of Jingzhou, and then attack Yizhou in the west - the country of Tianfu, and Huainan in the north - the rich land, cut off the southern half of the river, and finally go north to level the Central Plains!

Therefore, Zhou Yuqiang dragged his sick body, and he also had to lead the army to the west, seize the land of the nine counties of Jingzhou, complete the great plan of the two brothers, and also complete the dream of the two!

This time, Sun and Liu joined forces to march westward, Zhou Yu led troops to attack Xiangyang City, and Liu Bei led troops to capture Jiangling City.

Because Xiao Yi's main force is stationed in Jiangling City, there will be a bloody battle with Liu Beijun, and both sides are not idle people, I am afraid that they will fight a mountain of corpses and a river of blood, and both sides will be defeated!

After the main force of Cao's army retreated north, the city of Xiangyang was extremely empty, with only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and 120,000 troops in Jiangdong to kill it, and it would definitely be able to win and conquer the city!

As long as Xiangyang City is taken, it can be used as a pedal to capture Nanjun, Nanyang County, and Zhangling County, control the entire northern part of Jingzhou, and also open up the road to the Central Plains in the north and Bashu in the west, so it is much more active strategically!

At that time, Xiao Yi and Liu Bei should also be defeated, and they will wave their victorious division south and wipe out the two departments, so that the land of the nine counties of Jingzhou is all owned by the Jiangdong Group.

Thinking of the proudness, Zhou Yu's mood was much better, and the decoction cooled down at this time, and he was about to drink it all down, when another person came over, it was the rising star of Jiangdong - Lu Xun!

"Governor Qiyu, there is an urgent military report: Xiao Dasima abandoned the city and left, led the men and horses to retreat to Xiangyang City, and Liu Bei's army occupied Jiangling City without blood!"

"Smack! --Jiangling City is extremely rich, but it is Jingzhou's money bag, and he easily gave it up? ”

………………………………

Hearing the emergency military report, Zhou Yu trembled, and the medicine bowl fell to the deck, shattering in an instant......

I wanted Xiao Yi and Liu Bei to fight to the death, but I sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight, but I didn't think that the situation would be reversed, Liu Bei occupied Jiangling City without spending a single soldier, and Xiao Yi went north to Xiangyang City to face off with the Jiangdong Army!

"The tripartite forces, competing for Jingzhou, must be the end of the competition between the snipe and the fisherman, but who is the snipe and who is the fisherman has not yet been determined, and there are countless changes!

Xiao Yi's troops were insufficient, so he abandoned Jiangling City and retreated to Xiangyang City, wanting to protect the northern part of Jingzhou, which was extremely unfavorable to our army. ”

Zhou Yu did not lose a generation of famous generals, and quickly stabilized his mind, incisively analyzed the battle situation in Jingzhou, and thought of countermeasures in his heart, but he didn't say it, but asked about Lu Xun!

In the previous wars, Lu Xun made suggestions and shined, and was known as 'the first young talent in Jiangdong', and was deeply appreciated by Zhou Yu, and wanted to cultivate it well, if he fell one day, Lu Xun would be the new commander!

"Xiao Dasima retreats to Xiangyang City, the army will take the Jingxiang Ancient Road, you can send a messenger to urge Liu Bei to send troops, and entangle him to the death, but the big-eared thief is extremely treacherous, I'm afraid he won't go all out!

The Metropolitan Governor can send a light army to the south to penetrate the Jingxiang Ancient Road, and he does not seek to block the enemy, as long as he destroys the road, harasses everywhere, and delays for two or three days!

At the same time, send another surprise army, detour to attack Xiangyang, there are not many defenders in Xiangyang City, and there is no general to defend it, seeing our army falling from the sky, it will definitely surrender!

As long as Xiangyang City is taken, Nanjun, Nanyang County, and Zhangling County are at your fingertips, no matter how strong Xiao Dasima's skills are, he can only stop and retreat to the hinterland of the Central Plains! ”

Lu Xun did not lose his young talents, and quickly formulated a plan, and he was both offensive and defensive, and the deployment was tight, reflecting a very high military quality!

However, no matter how perfect a military plan is, it is still on paper, and if you want to put it into practice, you need to consider more things: the right time, the right place, and especially the people!

Jiangdong Group is full of talents, everyone's personality, ability, hobbies are not the same, put them in the right position, give full play to the greatest strength, work together, defeat the enemy, this is the ability of a commander!

"Bo Yan has both civil and military skills, full of wisdom, and will be a commander in the future, but he is a little soft-hearted, and he still needs a lot of training, you must know that being soft on the enemy is cruel to yourself!"

After listening to the plan, Zhou Yu pondered for a moment, first praised Lu Xun a few words, and then pointed out his shortcomings, and the cultivation heart was overflowing!

Mrs. Xiao Qiao is also brilliant, her husband has an arrogant personality, and she has never seen him praise a person so much, but it is a pity that there is no suitable woman in the Zhou and Qiao families, otherwise Lu Xun will definitely be recruited as a son-in-law and married Qin and Jin!

Next, Zhou Yu beat the drums and gathered the generals, and went to the Yuhuang boat to discuss the matter, and after all the civil and military forces came to Qi, he first introduced the changes in the battle situation, and then took out the token and began to divide the troops and send the generals:

The first token: Let Yu turn the messenger, go to Jiangling City to lobby Liu Bei, and quickly send troops to chase Xiao Yi, Yu turned is a Jiangdong bachelor - full of economy, eloquence, as the most suitable messenger!

The second token: Let Cheng Pu and Han Dang lead 5,000 infantry to Jingxiang Ancient Road to block Xiao Yi from going north, both of them are Jiangdong veterans - calm personality, practical and diligent, there is no problem in entanglement with the enemy!

The third token: Let Gan Ning and Ling lead 10,000 elite soldiers, march day and night, and sneak attack Xiangyang by detour, the two have strong personalities, strong martial arts, typical battlefield warriors, and are the best at attacking cities and grabbing land!

Zhou Yu listened to Lu Xun's strategy, but he didn't stop, and took out the fourth token: let Lu Meng and Xu Sheng command 25,000 soldiers and horses to attack Nanyang County, and they must take Wancheng!

After the army conquered Xiangyang, Xiao Yi had nowhere to stay, and he would inevitably retreat to the Central Plains, Wancheng was the place where he must pass, as long as this retreat was cut off, Xiao Yi would be unable to escape!

In fact, with Lu Xun's wisdom, he can also think of this strategy, but he and Xiao Yi have the reality of master and apprentice, even if they are on the battlefield, they have no intention of harming each other, and they don't want their master to be cornered!

Zhou Yu has no scruples, and he hates Xiao Yi to the core, so he naturally has no mercy, since ancient times, the two heroes have not stood side by side, and between himself and Xiao Yi, he can only live alone!
