Chapter 400: Attack with troops
Sun Quan was like falling into an ice cave.

The Jianye defense line was designed by him personally and can be described as impregnable.

But the Jianye Defense Line was basically used to prevent Cao Wei. For example, Ruxuwu was a typical military fort to prevent the Wei army from going south.

This kind of fort is built on a tributary of the Yangtze River, so that the enemy has no chance to enter the Yangtze River.

But the Han army came from Jiangling, and Ruxuwu seemed to be in vain.

In fact, Wankou further to the west has a little effect. After all, the garrison there is not far from the Yangtze River.

But the Anhui defense line was built by Zhuge Ke. After Zhuge Ke left, the area fell into chaos temporarily. In order to prevent more people from collaborating with Zhuge Ke inside and outside, Sun Quan reduced and transferred the troops there.

Sun Quan took a deep breath, opened it and read it quickly, his brain falling into a brief blank.

Only Sun Quan knows how bad Wu's chess is now.

Because this game of chess was caused by himself: the factional war!

If the military situation deteriorates further, those marginalized ministers will surrender to the enemy one after another.

"Four preparations: 1. Your Majesty immediately mobilizes all the naval forces currently in the capital to stop the Shu army and drag the situation into a protracted war. 2. Mobilize 30,000 elite reinforcements from Ruxuwu to cut off the Shu army's retreat; 3. Notify the Wei army , the Wei army knows that the Shu army has divided its forces to attack Wuchang and Jianye, and the Wei army will definitely take the opportunity to go south to Xiangyang..."

It's a pity that he miscalculated Jiangling's determination for Jianye.

When the outside world is stable, no matter how bad the factional disputes in Jianye are, they will still be controllable by Sun Quan. In the end, the crown prince and King Lu will be dealt with.

Everyone's hearts were shocked, and they immediately said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Sun Quan couldn't help but nodded: "How to do it?"

"Nonsense!" Sun Quan was furious, "How can our great Wu not have the fine work of the Shu people!"

Sun Quan interrupted Zhu Ju: "Will the Wei army take the opportunity to go south to Wuchang and Jianye?"

Sun Quan said: "Those who said before that Shu people worked carefully are all people with ulterior motives! I never believe that Jianye was built carefully by Shu people!"

Lu Zhi's surrender to Jiangling is the best example.

Liu Ji was shocked.

This is what Sun Quan fears most.

"The Wei army is not water-resistant. It is easier to get Xiangyang than Wuchang and Jianye. At this time, the Wei army must send troops to Xiangyang first, and Li Jian is attacked on both sides. Both sides are in a stalemate and will surely die. When we destroy the Shu army on the Yangtze River, the Wei army Even if you want to go south, it’s impossible.”

Prime Minister Zhu Judao said: "Your Majesty, I think that even if the Shu army arrives in Jianye, there is nothing to fear. If they dare to cross Wuchang, they have committed a big taboo! Li Jian himself knows it very well, so I think that the Shu army is now asking for a Fast, but we don’t want them to be fast!”

He glanced at the people in the hall and suddenly said to Liu Ji: "Did you just say that Shu people are against paper money?"

There is actually nothing wrong with his opinion, and it is also a relatively normal operation for an aging monarch.

His confidence in doing this was that he believed that with the current situation among the three countries, it was impossible for anyone to launch a large-scale war against Wu.

The reason why he did this was to maintain future political stability from the perspective of the prince.

But now that the enemy has arrived at the doorstep, the factional struggle in Jianye is completely different.

After finishing speaking, Sun Quan said: "Anyone who dares to speak softly about Shu people again will be killed without mercy!"

Liu Ji was stunned for a moment, wondering why Sun Quan suddenly asked about this matter, and replied: "Yes, paper money increases the revenue of the national treasury and also makes the people rich. Those who oppose..."

Sun Quan nodded and signaled Zhu Ju to continue speaking.

"4. Just in case, immediately mobilize another 100,000 men from Danyang, Wu and Kuaiji counties. Even if the Yangtze River front loses, it will take months to months if the Shu army wants to capture Jianye. By then Sima Yi will go south to Xiangyang The momentum has been achieved, but Li Jian is still defeated!"

According to Zhu Ju's strategy, as long as he holds the Yangtze River Road, holds back the Han army, and waits for the arrival of follow-up reinforcements, he can use superior forces to encircle the Han army on the Yangtze River in all directions.

The Han army went deep alone and was blocked on the Yangtze River. Not to mention fighting the Wu army, the Xiangyang front could also drag Jiangling to death.

After Zhu Ju's analysis, Sun Quan and his ministers were immediately full of confidence.

Isn’t Li Jian looking for death?
Since you want to die so much, then we, Da Wu, will make it happen for you!
Liu Ji immediately jumped out and said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, I, Wu, have won!" Sun Quan's originally gloomy face suddenly showed a smile: "Zitong!"

Sun Wei came out and said, "I'm here!"

"From now on, I appoint you as the general, and the Jianye Navy will be under your command to fight against the enemy!"

When Sun Wei heard this, he was immediately overjoyed. Wouldn't this opportunity to make a contribution come?
I have been sitting on the bench these years.

Now, Quan Cong is dead, Sun Shao is dead, Lu Xun is dead, Zhuge Jin is dead, Zhu Ju becomes prime minister, Zhu Yi is in Ruxuwu, Lu Ju surrenders to Jiangling, Zhuge Ke surrenders to Jiangling, Lu Dai is in Wuchang, Zhu Ju Ran is in Wuchang, and Ding Feng is in Wuchang.

Finally it’s my turn, Sun Wei!

I, Sun Wei, want to announce to everyone that my time has come!

A smile appeared on Sun Wei's lips, and he responded loudly: "Here!"

Sun Quan said: "This time, the Shu army will never come back!"

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

"Retreat!"

Soon, news of the Han army's attack quietly spread in Jianye.

Sun Wei received the seal of general and began to mobilize Jianye's navy. Jianye had 60,000 elite soldiers.

If Zhu Yi returns another 30,000 troops from Ruxuwu, he will have 90,000 elite troops.

Coupled with the recruitment of 100,000 strong men from various places, Jianye's military strength was completely superior to that of the Han army.

After resigning from the court, Sun Quan immediately summoned the crown prince and King Lu and gave them a sincere and sincere instruction.

Tell them, brothers, not to make the relationship too tense.

They are all my good sons!
But Sun Quan obviously did not have a thorough understanding of the situation.

The prince and King Lu appeared to be very obedient to Sun Quan, saying that they would not care about the past when the country was in crisis.

But in fact, the two factions started taking action that day.

And this time the action was more intense than before.

The princelings have also learned political correctness: accusing political opponents of being enemies!
This trick is especially useful when a powerful enemy is present and the group is in panic.

On the evening of February 20th, the Han warships had passed Dangtu.

Li Heng stood on the attic of the ship, looking at the scenery of Jiangdong.

The Jiangnan of this era is not the prosperous Jiangnan of later generations.

During this era, this area still presented a primitive scenery.

There are neither endless fields nor arty literati on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

Some are just patches of forest.

You can also see flocks of wild ducks, wild boars, wild deer, etc. in the meadows and woods.

Li Heng had to sigh that the natural scenery of this era was very well preserved.

"General, Sun Quan should have known that we are coming by now." Lu Zhi said.

"Well, he must have known."

"Jianye still has nearly 100,000 elites." Lu Zhi reminded.

Li Heng said: "Come up and attack."
