The Yuan Family of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 694
In the Battle of Bowangpo, Yuan Shang planned to set fire to the Jingzhou army and defeated Guan Yu's main Jingzhou army. Guan Yu fled in a hurry and led a group of relatives and remnants to escape from Bowangpo. The generals of the Qin Dynasty divided their troops to take Jingzhou and the cities in the north, mainly Xiangyang, but did not pursue Guan Yu's remnants deeply, but only waved flags and shouted, pretending to be powerful.

Soochow, Lukou Camp.

The navy camp in Lukou has always been controlled by Zhou Yu himself, but today, Sun Quan came to inspect it in person, I don't know what happened.

After inspecting the situation of the three armies, Sun Quan came to the commanding tent of the Soochow Navy and called Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Lu Meng, Zhou Tai, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Tai Shici, Ling Tong, Jiang Qin and other important officials to meet.

After seeing Sun Quan, the generals of Eastern Wu sat on both sides according to their status. Sun Quan sat on the commander's seat, looked around at the crowd, suddenly smiled, and asked: "Everyone, I am here today. In order to inspect the military situation of the navy, the second came for another important event, I wonder if you can guess?"

On the lower side, the veteran Cheng Pu stood up slowly, cupped his hands, and said: "My lord, the real purpose of coming this time is to discuss with us. best opportunity."

When Sun Quan heard the words, he said with emotion: "The words of morality are very consistent with my opinion... The previous report from the detective said that Guan Yu's Jingzhou soldiers and horses were destroyed by Yuan Shanghuo in Jingbei, and the main force of Jingzhou was damaged. Now we are reluctantly stationed in the south of the Han River, confronting Yuan Shang, and Yuan Shang is taking the opportunity to attack Xiangyang and other cities in the north of the Han River. Sooner or later, he will inevitably invade Jingnan. The best opportunity, what do you guys think?"

When the words fell, Zhou Yu got up and said proudly: "My lord, I'm telling you the truth. If my lord doesn't come to Lukou today, Yu will send someone to Nanxu. I implore my lord to allow Zhou Yu to send troops to Jingzhou!"

Beside Zhou Yu, Lu Meng stood up and agreed: "The governor's words are very kind! Guan Yu's Jingzhou army has always been strong, but after this change, its strength has been greatly reduced. For me, Soochow, it is the right time to capture Jingzhou. What's more, although Yuan Shang defeated Guan Yu's main force, he was defeated by Guan Yu five times in a row from Jingdong to Jingbei, spanning [-] miles. For Yuan Shang, it is already the biggest limit, and other places in Jingzhou, such as Jiangxia, Nanjun and other places, if they do not take it, it will be against God's will, this is a god-sent opportunity, absolutely not to be missed!"

Sun Quan turned his head to look at the other people, but seeing that everyone was eager to try, they obviously had great confidence in attacking Jingzhou now, then he nodded and said: "Since you have the support of your lords, then Quan has no worries in his heart." also."

Among the crowd, Lu Su was the most sober, but when he got up, walked out of the class, he cupped his hands and said to Sun Quan: "My lord, although the opportunity to attack Jingzhou at this time is not to be missed, with Yuan Shang's wisdom, how could it not be counted against me?" Why would he do this? When the lord chased him until Shouchun, Yuan Shang invited the lord to attack Jingzhou. It can be seen that he had already intended us to attack Guan Yu's rear. Jingzhou is certainly to be taken, but we must not act hastily. So much so that Yuan Shang took advantage of it."

Sun Quan thought for a while after hearing the words, and said: "Zi Jing's words are reasonable, but Yuan Shang always wants us to capture the southern counties of Jingzhou. What is his plan in mind, and what benefits will it have for him?"

Lu Su smiled when he heard the words, and said: "According to my judgment, Yuan Shang's original intention was nothing more than to stir up discord between Sun and Liu, and reap the benefits of fishing. In today's world, in terms of power, Yuan Shang is the strongest, and Sun Liu is the strongest. They are all weak, once Sun and Liu fight, how can they fight against Yuan Shang?"

Sun Quan nodded when he heard the words, and said: "Although this is the case, the power of Jingzhou is actually an important part of our Dongwu's complete rejection of the Yangtze River, and we must definitely take it!"

Lu Su stroked the beard on his chin, and said with a chuckle: "Although this is the case, we should also pay attention to propriety. It is imperative to seize Jingzhou, but there should be a good explanation from Liu Bei's side... In my opinion, After seizing Jingzhou, we might as well say that Yuan Shang’s army is powerful, and Guan Yu alone is hard to match, and I, Dongwu Nian, came here to protect Jingzhou for Guan Yu, just for a while, I don’t know what the lord will do?”

Sun Quan nodded and said, "Yes."

Lu Su turned his head and said to everyone: "Everyone, the most important point is that Guan Yu and Liu Bei are sworn brothers in Taoyuan. When you generals seize Jingzhou, you must not hurt Guan Yu."

All the generals stood up and said, "No!"

..............................

After Yuan Shang defeated Guan Yu, he divided his troops to take Xiangyang and other places. However, he did not relax on Guan Yu, and his troops went south, heading straight for Guan Yu's camp on the Han River.

As expected by Yuan Shang, Guan Yu was very strong. Although his soldiers and horses were damaged, he still insisted on defending the camp in the south of the Han River to fight against him.

Yuan Shang did not forcefully attack Guan Yu's camp, instead he took his troops across the river and faced Guan Yu from a distance.

Standing on the side of his side's gate, Yuan Shang looked at Guan Yu's camp in the distance, with a slight smile on his face, and the light in his eyes flickered, as if he was trying to figure out something.

After a while, Sima Yi walked to Yuan Shang's side and said in a low voice, "My lord, why don't you send troops?"

Yuan Shang took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "If Soochow doesn't send troops, we won't be able to make any moves."

Sima Yi laughed when he heard the words, and said: "Don't worry about this, Dongwu has coveted Jingzhou for a long time, and will never let go of this opportunity. Of course, Dongwu has many talents, so it will definitely not kill Guan Yu." .”

Yuan Shang smiled slightly when he heard the words, and did not answer this question to Sima Yi, but thought for a while and said: "Starting tomorrow, we will send Ma Chao, Zhang Yan, Zhang Liao, Gao Lan, Zhang He and others to attack Guan Yu's camp in five groups, and attack Guan Yu's camp at the same time. , while threatening that Sun Quan has taken the opportunity to attack Jingzhou in the rear, remember, don’t let them break Guan Yu’s camp, the important thing is to pass on this information about Soochow’s subsequent attack.”

........................

According to Yuan Shang's order, on the second day, Yuan Jun's five soldiers and horses began to attack Guan Yu's camp separately, but they all fought in a leisurely manner, on the contrary, they shouted more hard than they fought.

Guan Yu was sitting guarding the central army, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy when he heard the shouts and shouts coming from all directions. However, Guan Yu was different from ordinary people. No matter what was going on in his heart, his face was always calm.

When I was young, I saw Liao Hua coming in a hurry covered in blood, and sighed at Guan Yu, "General Guan, something is wrong! Yuan Jun's five-route army is in a hurry to attack, and our army can't resist it. More, more Yuan Jun... "

Guan Yu Danfeng opened his eyes: "How about more?"

"Moreover, Yuan Jun shouted loudly, saying that Jiangdong has captured Jingzhou!"
