Silver Fox of the Three Kingdoms

There are people in the Jiangdong Sun family, but his harmony is the harmony of the family, not the harmony of the common people.

It's just that the Jiangdong gentry occupied most of the land and population in the past, so the support of the Jiangdong gentry was almost equivalent to the support of half of Jiangdong, and the Sun Wu regime could persist for so long.

But now the Jiangdong gentry couldn't bear it any longer. Even if they continued to hold on, it would be more or less just gathering tens of thousands of troops for Sun Quan, and they couldn't resist Liu Bei's army at all.

Therefore, although Ruxukou is a hard bone, it is not necessarily so hard.The softer cartilage is in the rear of Jiangdong - the southeast hills.

Shen Chen believes that the Liu Bei Group sent [-] troops this time, of which [-] troops marched by water and went straight to Ruxukou to fight Sun Quan.

Faced with Liu Bei's powerful offensive, Sun Quan must be terrified and uneasy, and will definitely send most of the main force to intercept it, so the defense for the rear is naturally not so strict.

Now Jiangdong's soldiers and horses are said to be 20 to the outside world, but in fact, Shen Chen has already figured out the foundation. The total is only the 3 people who stayed behind at Ruxukou, plus the gathered routs and the newly recruited Jiangdong gentry army, the main force About fifty or sixty thousand.

The troops left behind were even worse. There were almost no county soldiers, and a large area was in the middle of the defense. Many non-gentry dignitaries, such as small local families like Huangmenting back then, sent letters willing to surrender.

If Shen Chen hadn't written back and warned them not to revolt until their main force started to attack Jiangdong, the empty Wu Jun Kuaiji and other places would have already been full of flames and civil unrest.

Therefore, if at this time, a general and [-] elite soldiers are sent to cross the mountains and ridges, and take the rear of Jiangdong from the southeast hills, then the Jiangdong regime will definitely be destroyed.

After listening to Shen Chen's tactical arrangement, Liu Bei thought it was very good, so he asked, "Then who should we send to detour and attack Jiangdong?"

Shen Chen looked at Guan Yu and said, "Although this battle seems simple, it is not easy. Only Lord Yun is capable of it!"

This is the plan to feed the cake.

Guan Yu, as the number two figure in the Liu Bei Group, has historically contributed to the flooding of the Seventh Army and Megatron China.

But this credit is now received by Shen Chen. He only won the honor of defeating Cao Jun in the Battle of Guanzhong. Naturally, this honor cannot support the status of the No. [-] figure in the Liu Bei Group.

Although Xiahoudun, as the No. [-] figure in the Caowei Group, has never won a battle and been promoted, Guan Yu is not a general like Xiahoudun.

As a real commander-in-chief, Guan Yu just lacked the opportunity to lead the army alone in the past. The previous battle in Guanzhong was a small test, but the current battle against Wu is the highlight.

Because only such a great contribution as the war of destroying the country can be worthy of Guan Yu's status.

But now Jiangdong has been torn apart, like a dilapidated wooden house, with air leaking from all sides, if a strong man goes up and kicks hard, it will fall apart.

Therefore, Liu Bei personally led the main force in the front line, and Guan Yu outflanked and attacked the rear by surprise. In this way, Guan Yu's first victory in the battle of destroying Wu was on Guan Yu, and Guan Yu would also become the main force in demolishing this dilapidated house, thereby grabbing a lot of military merits.

This battle was almost a battle tailor-made for Guan Yu. Originally, Shen Chen planned to let him out and go to guard Hanzhong by himself, but it was Liu Bei who insisted on keeping him as commander.

But even though he coordinated the overall situation, he couldn't take all the credit for himself, so he set up a situation to feed the cake.Shen Chen broke his heart because of the proud Uncle Yun.

Unexpectedly, Guan Yu asked, "Which is the most difficult to attack Ruxukou or bypass Qiantang?"

"Naturally Ruxukou."

Liu Bei almost blurted out, because this is a question that does not need to be thought about.

Guan Yu got up and cupped his hands to Shen Chen: "Xiaoqing, we have known each other since you were eight years old, and I have always treated you like a nephew. Since the King of Han asked you to take care of the overall situation in this battle, I should obey orders. But I You also know my temperament, timidity and cowardice are not my husband, and I am a hero who rises above difficulties, how can I abandon the difficulties and take the easy?"

Shen Chen explained: "Attacking Qiantang is not cowardly. This battle of traveling thousands of miles and directly attacking the enemy's heart is no less meaningful than Huo Huo riding two thousand miles north to smash the court of the Huns and seal the wolves. .Its importance is even higher than that of the frontal battlefield, and it is something that no general can do!"

Guan Yu waved his hand and declined: "The king of Han has a lot of talents. Zilong, Meng Qi, and Wen Chang can all lead the army. I am willing to follow the king of Han and fight against Sun Quan's son head-on! I can't be like the Jiangdong rats. They will only plot against Cao Wei and attack from behind. .”

Shen Chen looked at Liu Bei.

Liu Bei nodded slightly, and said, "It's not that Yun Chang thinks a surprise attack is bad, but he just wants to confront Jiang Dong head-on. What's more, the three of us brothers are old, and our bodies can't bear it if we run around like this."

Shen Chen took a look at Liu Bei and Guan Yu, both of them were 60 years old, with gray hair and old faces, they were indeed not as tall as they were back then.

The so-called Feng Tang Yi is old, and the years are mottled.No matter how picturesque the mountains and rivers are, there will always be a day when heroes and heroes will be twilight.

No matter who it is, they cannot escape such a fate.

Shen Chen thought for a while, and then said: "Since that's the case, then Yun Changgong will be the general of the three armies on the front line, as for the candidate for the surprise attack on the south line."

He scanned the rest of the generals.

I saw Wei Yan, Pang De, and Gan Ning all looked at him with fiery eyes except Ma Chao and Zhao Yun who were relatively plain.

Ma Chao is not stupid.

If Xiliang didn't send him to send Zhang Fei, he should understand why.

He followed Liu Bei every day in the Liu Bei Group, saying that Liu Bei valued him and entrusted him with important tasks, but in fact he prevented him from rebelling.

Therefore, meritorious deeds are no longer valued, or dare not be valued.

Zhao Yun is relatively introverted by nature, he doesn't take credit, he will earnestly complete the tasks assigned by his superiors, even if there are good things, he will not take the initiative to snatch them.

And Wei Yan, Pang Degan and Ning all wanted military merits, so they naturally hoped to become the main general on the southern front.

For a while, Shen Chen still hesitated.

Liu Bei saw his hesitation, and said, "Accordingly, Han Sheng is the best person to do this job. Han Sheng lived in Jingnan, and he followed Liu Pan all the way to Qiantang in his early years, so he is familiar with the road. But since Han Sheng is not here, it should be handled by a general who is good at climbing mountains and mountains."

"Ah."

Shen Chen nodded and said: "I plan to send Samoke to lead the Wuximan to the main force on the southern front, but as the deputy general, Samoke should have a chief general to go."

Liu Bei said again: "I have Wang Ping, a general of the Jin people. In the early years when Kong Ming formed the Jin people's army, Wang Ping was one of the best, and he was quite strategic. Now I have been promoted to a lieutenant general, leading 5000 people in the headquarters, and can help Xiaoqing. .”

"That's the best."

Shen Chen thought for a while and said: "Xingba is good at water warfare, but this navy army cannot do without him."

Gan Ning was immediately disappointed.

But what Shen Chen said made sense. The southern route was a long journey by land. He spent many years in the Jiangxia navy and was good at water battles. There was no need to compete with the army for merit.

Then Shen Chen said: "Both Wen Chang and Ling Ming can be generals, but I am not familiar with you, and I don't know who is suitable to send."

"Let Ling Ming go."

Guan Yu said: "Although Ling Ming was Meng Qi's favorite general in the early years, after following Meng Qi and the King of Han, he beheaded the general and captured the flag. He was loyal and loyal. He will not disappoint the King of Han in this battle."

Pang De was overjoyed, and then looked at Ma Chao. After Ma Chao nodded slightly, he got up and said, "The last general will never disgrace his life!"

Wei Yan became anxious immediately, and hurriedly said: "The former general, the last general"

"Wait!"

Shen Chen pressed down with his right hand, signaling them not to speak yet.

After everyone was quiet, he turned his head to look at Liu Bei and said, "My lord, what is the fighting power of these five thousand people?"

Liu Bei said with a smile: "This is an elite soldier trained by Kong Ming himself. The name is Wudang Flying Army. Kong Ming said that he should follow the example of the Huangmen soldiers, eat meat every day, and cross mountains and ridges like walking on flat ground."

"If this is the case, then we can still have a surprise attack army."

Shen Chen shouted to the door: "Call Qu Gan Zhang Nan."

Qu Gan Zhang Nan was Liu Qi's subordinate when he was the prefect of Jiangxia in his early years. Following Liu Qi and Shen Chen, he once defeated the Jiangdong Army in Yi County.

Later, Liu Qi's troops were basically under Shen Chen's jurisdiction, and they became Shen Chen's subordinates.

After a while, Qu Gan and Zhang Nan came over, first saluted Liu Bei, then bowed their hands to Shen Chen and said, "Commander."

Shen Chen said: "Do you two still remember Yi County?"

Qu Gan smiled and said: "Of course I remember that the governor asked the Shanyue people to help build dams in Yi County to stop the mountain torrents. When the Jiangdong Army came, the water flooded Wugou, and Sun Quan almost drowned."

"Ah."

Shen Chen pointed to the map and said to the crowd: "You don't know, there is a secret road leading directly to Jiangdong in the southeast hills. Qian Tang guards the throat, and Sun Quan will definitely send his confidantes to guard it, so it is not easy to break through. But if you come from Poyang goes north to Yi County, and then from Yi County to Haiyang, She County, Yuqian, and finally to Yuhang County."

"Yuhang County?"

Liu Bei looked at the map, narrowed his eyes and said, "Isn't this behind Qian Tang?"

"Exactly."

Shen Chen nodded, and then smiled evilly: "Qiantang City is to the north of Zheshui, even if Pang De is outside Qiantang City, it will not be easy for him to ferry there. If the Qiantang defenders want to take advantage of General Pang to cross the river, Attacking halfway across, suddenly there is a standard force coming out from behind, what do you guys think?"

"Oh?"

Everyone suddenly opened their eyes wide.

"Wonderful, wonderful."

Liu Bei clapped his hands and praised: "Then Qiantang can be broken easily, and Jiangdong's destruction is just a matter of flipping!"

"good."

Shen Chen said: "It is impossible for Sun Quan to be unprepared for this surprise attack on Jiangdong. Therefore, if I plan to arrange both light and dark, it is bound to destroy Soochow."

"Appreciate further details."

Liu Bei said.

"The first plan is to attack Ruxukou and Zheqi cities head-on, with General Pound as the main general and Shamoke as the deputy general, with 5000 troops to take Qiantang directly."

Shen Chen pointed to the location of Yi County on the map, and said with a smile: "And the second tactic is to make the enemy think that there is only General Pang on the southern line, and then make General Wei the main general and General Wang the deputy general to go deep into the mountains. Go to Yi County and attack Yuhang!"

Although the hills in the southeast are also high mountains, but since they are called hills, they are naturally inferior to the majestic and dangerous Qinling Mountains in the land of Bashu.

Moreover, in the deep mountains and old forests, it is not that people are inaccessible, but there are Shanyue tribes everywhere.

Most of the Shanyue tribes had blood feuds with the Sun family regime. When they learned that Liu Bei was going to attack Wu, they wrote letters expressing their submission to Liu Bei. Therefore, all the people in this jungle are Liu Bei's people.

Shen Chen thought that it was impossible for Sun Quan to be so stupid that he didn't know that Liu Bei would choose the strategy of dividing the army into two groups, and the defense against Qian Tang's side must be based on defense.

So simply split up all the way again, Pound walked the avenue for the bright line, and rushed to Qiantang.Wei Yan took the dark trail from She County, that is, the area around Huangshan City in later generations, to Yuhang District in Hangzhou. The route is actually the section from Huangshan City to Yuhang District on the Hangrui Expressway in later generations.

Although the road is not easy, it is much more reliable than Wei Yan's outrageous Ziwu Valley conspiracy to attack Chang'an City with light clothes for thousands of miles.

And not only is there no such dangerous path as cliffs, but also people from Shanyue help along the way.

So the feasibility is very high.

Liu Bei clapped the case and said, "Okay, this strategy is really clever."

"Then after arriving in Qiantang, shall we unite as one army, or continue to divide into two?"

Wei Yan hesitated.

The southern line is clearly a gift. Before, one person took the credit for destroying the country, but now two people squared it, which made him a little unhappy.

Shen Chen said: "Continue to divide the army into two groups. Wei Yan broke Wu County, Pang De took Danyang, and then you encircled Jianye. If you broke Jianye, it would be a great achievement. As for the first achievement, I will discuss it." Decide who can capture Sun Quan alive, who will be the first!"

Both of them lifted their spirits, bowed their hands and saluted, "Wei."

Shen Chen said to Liu Bei: "My lord, the arrangements for the three routes of soldiers and horses have been completed, let's give orders."

"Ah."

Liu Bei got up, walked to the main stage, turned his back to the map, looked at the people below, and said slowly: "Everyone, Sun Quan is also a villain. Back then, his father, Sun Wentai, a fierce tiger from Jiangdong, fought for the yellow scarf and fought against Dong Zhuo, and his fame spread throughout the world. His elder brother, Sun Ce, rebelled against the false emperor Yuan Shu, followed the orthodoxy of the imperial court, and started his business in Jiangdong, so he is also a hero."

"But Sun Quan just inherited his father and brother's foundation, and was granted favor and served in the court. Sun Jian and Sun Ce, the widows all admired them very much. They thought that Sun Quan could get the will of his father and brother, and he had a heart in his heart, so he formed an alliance with him and became relatives in-law. I can fight against Cao Cao together with you, rescue the emperor, and help the Han Dynasty."

"Who would have thought that Sun Quan, not only has no abilities like his father and brother, but only knows how to eat meat, peck at corruption, betray his trust and abandon his alliance. What makes people hate him even more is that he never thought of imitating his father and brother and serving the great Han Dynasty , instead of breaking the covenant and attacking Jingzhou, there is no morality, and he is really a traitor."

"If Xiaoqing and Kong Ming hadn't expected that Sun Quan would unite with Cao Cao to attack Jingzhou, I am afraid that the land of Jingzhou would have been taken by him. Fortunately, the generals worked hard, and the soldiers fought bravely to repel the enemy. Only then can we have Jingzhou , Great victory in Guanzhong."

"However, this hatred must be avenged, and Jiangdong must not be destroyed. The law of heaven is clear, and the country's traitors cannot be tolerated. I want to send troops to destroy Sun Quan, and I will be ashamed!"

At the end, he looked around the crowd and said with piercing eyes: "Tomorrow at noon, on top of Xiakou Peak, I will open an altar to offer sacrifices to the soldiers and common people who died in the Battle of Jingzhou and the Battle of Guanzhong. Military prestige! Soldiers of the three armies, swear to destroy Soochow!"

"Swear to destroy Soochow!"

All the soldiers got up together, knelt down on one knee, and shouted loudly.

Liu Bei looked at Dongfang with deep hatred, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and he was already full of hatred for Sun Quan's betrayal!
