I am the Crown Prince of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 870 Sun Ce's Prospect

But Sun Ce and Zhou Yu failed to capture Jiangling with their troops. Although they returned along the river, they invaded Changsha soon after, took Guiyang, Lingling, Wuling and other counties, and stationed themselves in Gong'an, just across the river from Lu Su in Jiangling City. Relatively.

Public security is not a county, but a county seat. Because it faces Jiangling across the river, its geographical location is very important.After all, the south of the Public Security Bureau is the vast four counties in Jingnan. If the Public Security Bureau is breached, the four counties will become battlefields from the hinterland.

In history, after Liu Bei captured Changsha, Guiyang, Lingling, Wuling and other counties, he was also stationed in Gong'an, facing the north across the river. It was not until Zhou Yu of Eastern Wu captured Jiangling City and lent Jiangling City to Liu Bei. Feel better.

Today, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and other tens of thousands of troops are stationed here. [

The sun was shining brightly, and there were no clouds in the sky.

Outside the city of Gong'an, countless tents were erected, stretching for several miles, which was very spectacular. The county town of Gong'an surrounded by it was not tall, but it looked very strong. Patrolling soldiers on the city continued to pass by, and the security was very strict.

There is a county government office in the city, which is temporarily used as the residence of Marquis Wu for Sun Ce to live in.At this moment, in the front yard of the county government office, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were drinking, and the two of them poured a glass of wine to their mouths, no matter how they looked at it, they felt in a bad mood.

"Winning the city, but being in a bad mood is really an anecdote." Sun Ce drank another glass, but unfortunately he was still sober because of his heavy drinking capacity. He laughed wryly and laughed at himself.

"Ah, an anecdote through the ages." Zhou Yu felt the same way, and said with a wry smile.

As Sun Ce said, even though he won the city, he was in a bad mood.As Liu Feng said, these sites are sparsely populated, and they add up to hundreds of thousands of people.

But Nanjun, which is the county where Jiangling City is located, has a population of tens of thousands. Compared with Jiangling, the four Jingnan counties are really like chicken ribs.

More importantly, Jiangdong forces were contained in the south of the Yangtze River.Whether it is going north to Jiangling or going north to Yangzhou Shouchun, it will not work.

If the Han Dynasty is not destroyed, Jiangdong will always be in the south.This is so shameful.

"Now that the heroes are forming an alliance, it is difficult for us to go north and unite with the heroes. Gong Jin thinks what should we do next?" Sun Ce is also a hero after all, and after feeling it for a while, he returned to reality and asked in a deep voice.

"Without our alliance in Xiangyang, attacking Nanyang, and containing the power of the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty in the north has Tongguan, Qingnikou and other passes in the west, Hulao Pass in the east, Xu County as a place to deal with, the Yellow River in the north, and the south. It is peaceful again. I am afraid that it will be difficult for the northern princes to make contributions. The most important thing for us now is to digest half of Jiangxia, Changsha and other four counties, so as to raise enough energy to wipe out the mountains in the territory and strengthen ourselves. In this way Come on, whether it is the Northern Expedition or self-defense is feasible, it can be said that it can be attacked and defended." Zhou Yu said after hearing the words and pondering for a moment.

In fact, if the Northern Expedition is an incentive, if the Han Dynasty is difficult to conquer, then Lu Su's defense of Jiangling is tantamount to pinching Jiangdong's neck. Jiangdong's Northern Expedition is still impossible.

But in Zhou Yu's view, after digesting Changsha, Jiangxia and other counties, self-protection should be no problem.

"Oh, that's the only way to go now." Sun Ce sighed when he heard the words, and said sadly.
