Chapter 553: Each has a ghost

Jian Yong was one of Liu Bei's early strategists, and a strategist actually asked the military advisor Zhuge Liang if he had any back-ups, which was really a bit embarrassing to ask.

But after experiencing Jiangdong's sneak attack on Jingzhou, Jian Yong completely realized Zhuge Liang's evil and was completely convinced of Zhuge Liang.

It is precisely because of this that Jian Yong asked such a question.

If the military advisor Zhuge Liang had a backhand, Jian Yong decided to follow Zhuge Liang's arrangement.

If not, then it will not be too late for the three of them to come up with another plan.

After hearing Jian Yong's inquiry, Liu Bei couldn't help but say: "General Chen has already reported, saying that the military advisor has left a message, if the first two arrangements still can't solve the Jiangdong army, it is better to give up the southern part of Jingzhou." ”

"The whole army retreated to Nanyang County and Jiangxia County, and after Lü Bu obtained the entire southern part of Jingzhou, he was bound to be greedy and still wanted to seize the northern part of Jingzhou. At that time, they can set up eight formations on the road that Nanyang County and Jiangxia County must pass through, and completely solve the Jiangdong army. ”

Jian Yong couldn't help frowning and asked, "Lord, is the military advisor sure of victory?" ”

Zhuge Liang's strategy can't be said to be bad, but it always feels too risky!

According to this strategy, they would have to completely abandon the entire southern part of Jingzhou.

Well, well, although so far, the vast majority of southern Jingzhou has fallen into the hands of Lu Bu.

But anyway, they still have a county in their hands, right?

Just gave it up, Jian Yong was really a little unwilling.

At this time, I heard Sun Qian say: "What the military advisor said is reasonable, after losing Linyuan, the entire southern part of Jingzhou is basically no longer in danger to defend. If we continue to confront the Jiangdong army in the south of Jingzhou, it will actually be bad for us. ”

Listening to Sun Qian's words, Jian Yong couldn't help but nodded.

Emotionally speaking, it is a bit difficult to accept to give up a county directly.

But in fact, confronting the Jiangdong army on a territory that has no danger to defend is a thing that outweighs the loss, and there is no longer much need to do so.

In that case, then give up the entire southern part of Jingzhou and fight to the death with the army of Jiangdong in the northern part of Jingzhou.

Soon, Chen Rang received an order, and all the troops withdrew from the southern part of Jingzhou, and directly withdrew to the Manyang army and Jiangxia County in the northern part of Jingzhou.

……

Lü Bu led the army to retreat to Linyuan City, and rested for three days before Linyuan City was completely restored to its normal state.

After this battle, whether it was Lu Bu, Xun You, Guo Jia and Jia Xu, they all put away their contempt for Liu Bei's forces.

On Liu Bei's side, there is a very terrifying demon Zhuge Liang.

If you don't notice it for a while, you may suffer a big loss!

And some losses are destined to be unbearable!

Therefore, after resting for three days, although it was already known from intelligence, Chen Rang had led the army back to Jiangbei.

The Jiangdong army was still cautious and did not dare to be careless.

It took seven days in a row to completely recover the southern part of Jingzhou, and Lu Bu was completely relieved.

After taking the southern part of Jingzhou, the Jiangdong forces were completely united.

As long as the land of Jingzhou is thoroughly digested and absorbed, the Jiangdong forces will be completely formed, they can attack and retreat, and they will no longer be afraid of the challenge of any force, and they will truly have the strength to dominate the world!

……

Next, Lu Bu and the three military advisors discussed whether to take the opportunity to seize the territory in the north of Jingzhou.

Jingzhou's largest territory is in the south, and the territory in the north is very small.

However, if we can seize the territory in the north, it will also be very significant.

Because once they seize the territory in the north of Jingzhou, it means that they have a foothold in Jiangbei.

You can attack the Central Plains region or Yizhou forces at any time.

The opinions of the three military advisors were a little unanimous, and Xun You and Jia Xu thought that they could wait and see and make more decisions.

Because once the northern part of Jingzhou is captured, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of Liu Bei and Cao Cao.

If the two of them join forces, they will be in a very bad situation.

Even if they can take away the northern part of Jingzhou, they may not be able to hold it.

And Guo Jia thinks that this is the best time, this opportunity is too rare, if you don't take advantage of this once-in-a-century opportunity to take the opportunity to seize the northern part of Jingzhou, the lord will definitely regret it in the future!

And Lu Bu actually thought so in his heart.

Since you have taken this step, don't hesitate to look ahead!

In Lu Bu's vision, not only the northern part of Jingzhou, but also the northern Lujiang County and Jiujiang County in the north of Yangzhou should also be captured.

At that time, Lujiang County and Jiujiang County and the northern part of Jingzhou will be able to join together to form a joint defense trend.

Even in the face of Liu Bei and Cao Cao joining forces, they have the power to fight.

What's more, Liu Bei and Cao Cao are not so easy to join forces, and there is a Gongsun Zan behind Cao Cao.

Liu Bei also had to consider the consequences of joining forces with Cao Cao.

……

At this time, Lü Bu received information that Cao Cao's army was pressing the border and attacking Yuan Shu with all his might.

After getting the information, Lu Bu couldn't help but be overjoyed.

It seems that when he competes for the northern part of Jingzhou, Cao Cao will definitely not entangle with himself.

Cao Cao's wishful thinking was good, and when he seized Jingzhou, Cao Cao went all out to eliminate Yuan Shu and occupy Yuan Shu's territory.

At that time, even if Lu Bu really captured Jingzhou, it would not matter.

At that time, Cao Cao had already taken all the territory of Yuan Shu, Cao Cao sent troops from Lujiang County and Jiujiang County, and Liu Bei sent troops from Yizhou, attacking left and right, and Lu Bu was bound to be unable to hold it.

Therefore, even if Lu Bu can take the northern part of Jingzhou now, sooner or later it will fall into the hands of Cao Cao.

Therefore, Cao Cao was not at all worried that Lu Bu would be able to take the northern part of Jingzhou.

On the contrary, now Cao Cao is looking forward to Lu Bu being able to take the northern part of Jingzhou.

Because if Lu Bu didn't make a move, Cao Cao wanted to take the northern part of Jingzhou, which would be equivalent to sending troops to Liu Bei.

And for now, Cao Cao is not willing to provoke Liu Bei and Lu Bu at the same time.

If Lu Bu takes the northern part of Jingzhou, he will take it from Liu Bei again, not only will he not offend Liu Bei, but he will also be able to sell Liu Bei a good one, which is really the best of both worlds.

……

After clarifying Cao Cao's thoughts, Lu Bu also smiled slightly.

You Humpty Dumpty, do you really be naïve enough to think that I'm going to fall for you?

The land of Lujiang County and Jiujiang County is mine, and no one can take it away!

Now that he learned that Cao Cao was attacking Yuan Shu with all his might, Lu Bu was also relieved.

So, Lu Bu mobilized Zhou Yu's 100,000 sailors to attack Liu Bei's navy with all his might.

Liu Bei's navy was mainly inherited from Liu Biao.

The strength of Liu Biao's navy is still very strong, but in the battle of Chibi, it was crippled by the Jiangdong navy.

In the Battle of Chibi, countless sailors were burned to death, so the Jingzhou navy inherited by Liu Bei was much worse than when Liu Biao was alive.

In the past four or five years, although Liu Bei also attaches great importance to the navy.

However, in terms of the development of the water army, the difference between the Jingzhou water army and the Jiangdong water army is definitely more than one grade.

Jingzhou is just a navy, and Jiangdong is actually already a navy!
