My husband Zhuge Kongming

Chapter 246 244. Guo Jia: Naturally Jiangdong

In May, the weather is sunny and rainy.

Grain and rice are growing well and thriving in Jingzhou.

Whether it's aristocratic families, ordinary people, or tenants, they are all full of hope for this year.

The battle situation in Yuzhang also reversed again. Gan Ning united with the aristocratic families in Yuzhang to recapture Nanchang City.

Guan Yu even chased the main force of the Jiangdong Army all the way until he drove them out of Yuzhang, and then Gan Ning was free to deal with the Jiangdong Army's East and South Route Army.

On the other side of Chaisang, Huo Jun and Huang Zhong also fought a few tough battles with Sun Ce, and each was injured. In addition to the battle situation of the Jiangdong Army in Yuzhang, the two sides had to temporarily truce.

The news spread to Jingzhou.

The reputation of Huo Jun, Gan Ning, Gan Ning, Huang Zhong, Liu Pan and others has reached a new level.

Then there was Liu Bei and Cai Mao who conquered Xuchang in the north. Although they failed to welcome the emperor, they did not lose their soldiers and brought tens of thousands of people back to Jingzhou, which is also called a victory.

For a while, Jingzhou's Wenzhiwugong seemed to have reached a new height.

……

Xuchang.

Cao Cao looked at all the news about Jingzhou on the table with a serious expression.

On the side, Guo Jia asked people to hang several sheets of Chu paper on the shelf, then picked up a pen and paper, and drew maps of various states at will.

"First, Jiangdong has sent troops since mid-March, with a total of [-] troops, divided into four groups..." Xun Yu said the information he had compiled, "Chai Sang, led by Sun Ce, led [-] troops; Peng Ze, led by Zhou Yu." Thirty thousand soldiers; Yushan... Guangchang, each with [-] soldiers, among them, the two groups of Chaisang and Pengze are mostly navy troops."

While listening, Guo Jia marked it on the map he had just drawn.

"In Jingzhou, Huo Jun led [-] troops to garrison Chaisang. Sun Ce's strong attack lasted for a month. Later, Huang Zhong led Jiangxia's reinforcements, and the two sides temporarily ceased fighting."

"Peng Ze, Zhou Yu took ten days to take it, but was blocked by Gan Ning in Liling for more than half a month. After Guan Yu brought Changsha reinforcements, Zhou Yu turned around and captured Nanchang. After ten days of defending the city, Gan Ning united the city. The aristocratic family counterattacked...and was pursued by Guan Yu's troops."

"Yushan and Guangchang, the two Jiangdong armies did not achieve much in the early stage, but after Zhou Yu captured Nanchang, they successively captured three or four small counties in Yuzhang. Now, they are still in a stalemate with Yuzhang soldiers."

As soon as Xun Yu finished speaking, Guo Jia had already marked everything up.

For a moment, in the hall... everyone's expressions became a little more exciting.

Even Cao Cao had to admit...the arrangement in Jingzhou was indeed appropriate.

Today's meeting was Xun Yu's suggestion to reassess Jingzhou's strength.

Xun Yu continued, "Chai Sang and Yuzhou are not the boundary of Jingzhou. Huo Jun and Gan Ning were not well-known a few years ago."

"Chai Sang's back is Jiangxia. Jiangxia's former prefect Huang Zu was replaced by Liu Biao last year and replaced by Huang Zhong; Yuzhang is next to Changsha, and Guan Yu was appointed as Changsha prefect only last year."

"These people, who can appear in these places, are inseparable from that Huang Chu who is known as the 'Little Mister'." Guo Jia smiled and sighed, "This Liu Biao... is really lucky."

Everyone agrees.

These people also have their own criteria and methods to judge whether a person is a master or not. Obviously... Liu Biao is not the master in their hearts.

But now Jingzhou's strength is even stronger than theirs, and there is even a tendency to catch up with Yuan Shao.

This is closely related to that little gentleman, or...Chu'an Huang family, whether it is Xiangyang Academy, winter wheat and summer rice, or Chu paper...the same is true.

"Let's talk about Liu Bei." Xun Yu did not participate in the discussion of these people, because Liu Biao's current strength in Jingzhou should not be underestimated, regardless of whether Liu Biao was lucky or not.

Naturally, Guo Jia's expression froze, and he picked up his pen again.

"Beginning last year, Yuan Shao ordered Liu Bei to wander south of Xudu, and the latter took in a lot of Yellow Turban soldiers, even linked up with Liu Biao, sent troops to Xuchang twice, and even almost succeeded last year."

"Later, Liu Biao asked Liu Bei to garrison troops to block Yang. This year, Liu Bei had nearly ten thousand soldiers in his hands, and Gong Du raised his troops to attack Runan, and then sent troops to Liu Bei."

"Last year Wenhe sent people to spread the benevolence of General Zuo in Xiangyang. Liu Biao became suspicious, but Liu Bei proved his innocence and not only returned Duyang to Liu Biao...but also took back the Ye County in the north of Nanyang County. This place is directly to be stationed in Jingbei for Liu Biao, and Liu Biao will be asked to send people to manage it and provide supplies and logistics.”

Jia Xu nodded, "Liu Bei is, it's wonderful to retreat to advance."

Cao Cao also agreed that Liu Bei was able to come up with this trick, and there must be capable people behind him who figured out a way for him. Maybe he has already recruited a good adviser.After all, in the battle of Xuchang last year, Liu Bei's reputation was much higher.

"I heard that there is a literati named Xu Shu who voted for Liu Bei last year." Xun Yu continued to add.

Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu, "Wen Ruo means that Liu Bei's retreat is his idea."

"Maybe, maybe not." Xun Yu was not sure.Today's Liu Bei is no longer something they can handle at will.

Before they inquired about news, they mostly inquired about Liu Biao, not Liu Bei, but now, these two should be the focus of their attention.

"So, Wen Ruo said that Liu Bei's strength also needs to be re-examined?" Cao Cao asked.

Xun Yu nodded, "Liu Bei's move of retreating will allow him to develop steadily in Jingzhou for several years."

Cao Cao was silent.

Although he was victorious against Yuan Shao, but the two surnamed Liu in the south are slowly growing into serious troubles.

Yuan Shao and Liu Biao were nothing to worry about, but Liu Bei... really made him worry. He knew very well that once Liu Bei rose to power, it would be even more difficult to deal with.

"The battle between Yuzhang and Chaisang shows that...Jiangdong alone cannot hold back Jingzhou." Xun Yu said again.

In one sentence, the atmosphere in the entire conference hall was pulled down to the lowest level, because this sentence was correct.

After a while, Guo Jia laughed loudly, "Why worry so much!"

"Following filial piety must have a good plan!" Seeing Guo Jia's expression, Cao Cao felt a lot better. At least, not everyone was pessimistic.

"Yuan Shao's main force has already lost six or seven, and his strength is not as good as before. If Yuan Shao is calmed down, even if Jingzhou is difficult to deal with, why should the lord be afraid?" Guo Jia explained with a smile.

Cao Cao also laughed, reason, of course it is such a reason.

It's just...the Jingzhou side harassed him from time to time, it was really impossible for him to go to Pingbei properly!
It is necessary to find some enemies for Jingzhou and find something to do.

"What Feng Xiao said is very true." Xun Yu said that Guo Jia's words are still the direction of development of their power group. "It's just that someone still needs to restrain Jingzhou."

"Naturally...Jiangdong." Guo Jia said with a smile.

"But it's just Jiangdong, it's hard to hold back Jingzhou."

"That's because...the target is not clear enough, and the troops are too scattered." Guo Jia explained, "If Jiangdong has [-] troops and only attacks Chaisang, is it already the same as before, driving straight into Jiangxia?"

Although Yuzhang County should belong to Yangzhou in name, is Yuzhang really that important?
No.

No.

On the contrary, Chaisang's strategic location...is more important.

Jiangdong took Chaisang back, so that he could advance and retreat, and he could defend. Therefore, Jiangdong's goal this time was set too high, which led to the dispersion of troops, so that the plan failed.

What if someone reminded me?
