Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 721

When Xiangyang was attacked, Sun Quan couldn't help but sneer. He knew that Cao Pi was unreliable, but fortunately he was prepared.There is Cao Ren in the north and Liu Bei in the west. Jingbei seems to be unable to defend it. Since it cannot be defended, there is no need to defend it. Sun Quan ordered Han Dang to continue to stick to Xiaoting. Chen Shao and Zhang Xiu in Jingbei moved the people and supplies to the south , He Qi and Bu Zhi made good acceptance and arrangements.

Sun Quan couldn't wait to see what kind of fight Cao Ren and Liu Bei would have after he withdrew from Jingbei. Zhang Zhao's move of retreating into advance is really clever.Before he could exaggerate Zhang Zhao, he was slapped hard: Yu Fan, who stayed behind in Jiankang, came to report that a Han army descended from the sky and swept across Jian'an County with lightning speed. In Linhai County, according to the soldiers who fled back, the general of the Han army was surnamed Yu, and his soldiers were extremely brave, with about [-] soldiers; in Guangling, north of the Jiangxi, the Han army was gathering, and the boats on the river were coming and going. !Please come to the rescue quickly, King Wu!

When Liu Bei marched east, Zhou Cang got the report and discussed countermeasures with Xu Shu and others.Everyone thought that Zhou Cang would send troops to attack Cao Pi, so they would do the opposite. Sun Quan's troops were all on the western front, and he took over his lair!Yu Jin has been training troops in Taizhou for almost five years, of which the first three years were for training, and the last two years were for clearing up all the natives in Taizhou and training troops in actual combat, especially the mountainous inland of Taizhou, accumulating experience in mountain combat.

In order to occupy Jiangdong, Zhou Cang and Xu Shu have been planning for many years, and I do not know how many times they have deduced. According to calculations, in order to deal with Liu Bei, Sun Quan will have a maximum of 5 troops in the rear, and these [-] people will mainly gather in Wujun, Danyang and Kuaiji. county.Xu Shu's final battle plan is to lead the army across the sea to attack Jian'an County by Yu Jin, and Gan Ning will build momentum in Guangling. Then the defenders of Wu County and Danyang will not dare to meet Yu Jin, but to guard against the army of Guangling. The army will go south to Linhai County to stop Yujin.At this time, the Donghai Division set out from Yingzhou to attack Kuaiji directly, thus forming a double-team with Yu Jin and annihilating the Kuaiji army.After the two armies converged, they continued to attack Wujun northward, and the navy crossed the river. Qu'a led the army to occupy Danyang's soldiers, and Gan Ning and Yu Jin formed a pincer attack on Wujun again.

This time, 3 troops were dispatched from the Forbidden Division, 2 from the Sun Da Division of the Donghai Division, 2 from the Qu'a and Lu Qiling Divisions, and 2 from the Ganning Yangtze River Division, for a total of [-] troops.If the war goes well, Wu County can be captured in three months. If Sun Quan abandons the western front and goes all out to rescue, then he will fight Sun Quan in Danyang. If Sun Quan has no time to withdraw, he will take Danyang.In this way, the east of Poyang and Dongting belonged to Zhoucang.

Greeting the emperor, the restoration of Liu Xie became a good cover. No one would have thought that Zhou Cang had even bigger schemes behind his busy work.The three famous generals Yu Jin, Gan Ning, and Qu'a had twice as many soldiers and horses, and it was unexpected that Jiangdong could get it.

So before Zhou Cang went to Liyang to pick up Liu Xie, various orders had already been issued.Zhou Cang also gave Gan Ning a secret order, not to be soft on the Jiangdong gentry. As for how to handle it, it was up to Gan Ning to handle it. Anyway, Gan Ning's notoriety could not escape.As for putting Zhou Xin in Xuzhou, Zhou Cang has another plan, and Zhou Xin will go to Jiangdong to finish. This is a great experience for him.Jiang Gan had three tasks to go to Xuzhou. On the surface, he accompanied Liu Xie on inspections. In secret, he did a good job of publicizing public opinion and guiding people's hearts for the next step of occupying Jiangdong. The third task was to select a group of officials, teachers and students in Xuzhou for ideological comparison. Progressive people prepare for enriching Jiangdong officialdom and opening colleges in the future.

Yu Jin lived in Taizhou for five years, honed his courage and sharpened his sword, just to return to the battlefield one day.After receiving the Zhoucang military order, Sun Xing, the governor of the South China Sea Division, mobilized 5000 people to Jian'an County and landed on Ludao. Since He Qi was transferred away, Jian'an County had only [-] guards, and the coast was not fortified, so the first Without encountering any resistance, the troops took a firm footing, and the follow-up troops arrived immediately. Yu Jin stayed at Sun Xingjian's seaport, where Xiushuizhai was the most supply place, and led the army to divide into three routes and head north.

The [-] defenders were neither elite nor fortified. They were defeated in the first battle, and fewer than a thousand escaped. Within ten days of the ban, they were already on the verge of Linhai County.There were even fewer defenders at Linhai, less than [-]. The county guard urgently asked Zhang Ying, the guard of Kuaiji, for help.Zhang Ying hurriedly reported to Yu Fan, and led an army of [-] people south to Linhai in order to slow down the pace of the ban.

Yu Fan was anxious about the changes in the Guangling defenders, when he suddenly heard that Zhang Ying asked for help, he was horrified and ordered Zhu Zhi, the prefect of Wujun, to step up his guard and sent someone to report to Sun Quan.Zhu Zhi followed Sun Ce in the army and made great contributions. Sun Quan still gave great importance to him when he succeeded to the throne. His eldest son Zhu Ranyou was a general and is now the prefect of Hefei guarding Hefei.

Since Sun Ce pacified Jiangdong, it has been 20 years since the war was fought. Suddenly, the fire broke out again, and people in Jiangdong were panicked. Some big families began to secretly move their families to Lujiang and Yuzhang counties.

"Zhou Cang!" Sun Quan went up against the crime. He never thought that Zhou Cang would stab him in the back, but he never thought that he had done a lot before. "Breach of faith! Despicable villain!"

"Zhang Zi has been away for a few days? Is it time to go to Qingzhou?" Sun Quan was still struggling with whether he and Zhou Cang were allies. Zhou Cang actually sent troops to attack when he sent envoys.It can be imagined that the surprise soldier that appeared behind him definitely did not fall from the sky, but could only cross the ocean, just like Zhou Cang's surprise attack on Liaodong back then.well!I am still careless, since Zhou Cang has the ability to cross the sea north to send troops to Liaodong, why can't he have the ability to travel south to Jiangdong.

Xue Zong babbled, "King Wu, it seems that Zhou Cang's dispatch of troops this time is not a temporary idea, but a long-awaited plan."

Sun Quan glared at Xue Zong, it's up to you.Immediately he understood Xue Zong's subtext that Zhou Cang was well prepared to send troops this time, and he was bound to win.

Zhuge Jin couldn't help laughing bitterly, now it's unreasonable to say that Zhou Cang violated the covenant, the emperor is already in Zhou Cang's hands, how can there be any talk of forming an alliance with the emperor?Does the emperor need a reason to crusade?To talk about the reason, yes, Sun Quan accepted Cao Pi's imperial title as King Wu, which is a traitor to the emperor.As for why not attack Cao Pi, that is even simpler, Cao Pi is powerful, and Sun Quan is alone.

Xue Zong's call to King Wu also awakened Sun Quan.Hiss~ This guy Zhou Cang has already retired as Duke Fu, how can he be called the King of Wu again.

"Ziyu, you should go to Qingzhou immediately, and present the form for me, still called Wu Gong, and tell the emperor that I would like to obey the emperor's edict, pay tribute and become a minister."

Zhang Zhaowei shook his head, it was too late, the Han army was already flying like an arrow, how could it be withdrawn immediately, Wu Jun might not be able to keep it.

Sun Quan may also feel that his bargaining chip is not enough. "Ziyu, tell Zhou Cang again, I am willing to give up Hefei to him, and ask him to withdraw his troops."
