    Chapter 415: Feng Chu vs Wolong, only the devil has a plan

    In the Xiling City of Jiangxia, Huang Zu had just woken up when a small soldier came in a hurry: "Report to the general, a navy from the east of the Yangtze River came out of Chaisang and went down the river to the Sanjiangkou stronghold. General Su urgently reported for help."

    "Is Jiangdong restless again?" Huang Zu was surprised when he heard this. Since Jiangdong changed to a new lord, he rarely used troops against Jingzhou.  Now that the old protagonist has gone west and Liu Pan has just taken office, the Sun family has a good idea.

    Although Huang Zu was surprised, he couldn't help but lacked confidence. As the commander-in-chief of the Jiangxia Navy, he had fought against the Jiangdong Navy many times, but he didn't gain any advantage at all. He knew that it would be difficult for his own navy to fight against them.

    Since he has no confidence, asking for help is the best choice. Thinking like this, Huang Zu quickly came to the desk, asked the soldiers to sharpen ink, and dipped his pen in ink to write a letter asking for help.  As soon as the writing was dry, he handed it to the messenger soldier beside him and ordered: "Give it to the lord. It means that Jiangdong intends to take advantage of the unstable situation of the new master of Jingzhou to attack and seize the city quickly."

    "No!" Putting the letter into a small bag, the messenger clasped his fists in agreement and immediately left the prefect's mansion.

    After the soldiers left, Huang Zu rushed to the barracks in the city without stopping, ordered several lieutenants to practice carefully, and then went to the water village outside the city.  The warships were lined up in the water stronghold, and you could see the soldiers shouting on the warships. Seeing the lineup in the water stronghold, Huang Zu felt a little more at ease. No matter what happened, he still had someone in his hands.

    After patrolling the water village for several times, Huang Zu had no intention of sending troops to help Sanjiangkou.  As the water village garrison east of Jiangxia, there is no doubt that Sanjiangkou is important, but Huang Zu did not attach great importance to this place.

    Just because the Jingzhou navy can only protect itself and cannot fight at all.  Therefore, there have never been many troops stationed in Sanjiangkou, just more than a thousand people and dozens of small and medium-sized warships.  It would take at least a day and a half for a letter asking for help to reach Jiangxia. It would take such a long time, even if you lead troops to rush for reinforcements, it would be of no avail. When you arrive at Sanjiangkou, you will find that the water village has changed owners long ago.

    Comparing Sanjiangkou with Jiangxia, the latter is obviously better guarded. The city has high walls and thick walls, and the water village is equally large in scale, not much smaller than Chaisang Water Camp in Jiangdong.  For all these reasons, Huang Zu abandoned Sanjiangkou without even thinking about it. He just urged his soldiers to be more vigilant as war was coming.

    "Su Fei, the defeated general, has seen the general." In the Sanjiangkou, Su Fei, who had been abandoned by Huang Zu, looked helplessly at his friend in front of him, Jiangdong Navy General Gan Ning Gan Xingba.

    "You are still doing this with a certain family. There is no one around you. Get up and sit down." Gan Ning pulled Su Fei up and said angrily.

    He didn¡¯t fight at all in the battle at Sanjiangkou. Su Fei sent an envoy for help, but a day passed without a reply. He also knew that he had been abandoned. At that moment, he surrendered like an invading navy and gave up this Jingzhou water stronghold.

    Gan Ning and Su Fei have known each other for a long time. The latter was naturally not polite. He shook his head and sat down on the wooden pier. He looked at Gan Ning and said with envy: "Xingba is still capable, better than me, brother!"

    "Huang Zu is a mediocre man, how can he use people?" Gan Ning smiled and waved his hands: "After this battle, come back to Jiangdong with me. With your sneak attack skills in water warfare, you can still be a general.  "

    Gan Ning will not be a mediocre person. Although Su Fei is greedy for life and afraid of death, although he has poor appearance and cannot even read a few words, he can make a living on the river, after all, he has his own ability.

    Seeing the stitches, the speculation was attacked. This kind of battle of this small battle was his strength. However, Huang Zu did not see Su Fei's "small road", but only let him keep a broken village, and the whole day was gloomy.

    "Forget it, I will follow you Xingba from now on." Thinking that the young man who still needed his help back then has now become a general, Su Fei could only secretly sigh that his fate was not as good as others.

    At this time, his subordinates came in, bringing the news that Huang Zu had ordered the four gates to be strictly closed to drill the soldiers in the water village.

    "Hmph, you short-sighted guy, we must capture him this time!" Gan Ning couldn't help but sneer after hearing this. This kind of person has been fighting with him on the river for so many years. It's time to deal with him.

    Gan Ning did not avoid Su Fei. The latter was grateful and couldn't help but asked: "Is Xingba going to take Jiangxia this time?"

    Gan Ning's brows flashed with arrogance, and he nodded and said: "That's natural. The naval armies of the two states have been fighting for more than ten years. Although Jiangdong always has the upper hand, it has never been able to fully understand the problem. The purpose of sending troops this time is to eliminate them.  Huang Zu, come to seize Jiangxia!"

    "But, how many troops did Xingba bring this time? There are less than a hundred warships." Although Su Fei is not a great talent, he has so many years of experience in water warfare. Hearing his words, he was even more confused: "Such a battle force  , how can we defeat the heavily fortified Jiangxia?"

    Su Fei was confused, but Gan Ning laughed loudly: "This matter is important to our military. It cannot be leaked before the time comes. JustKeep your heart in the water village, Jiangxia is bound to win this time!  "

    Seeing Gan Ning being so confident, Su Fei could only think that Jiangdong still had backup plans, but these had nothing to do with him. His current status was still that of a defeated general, and he would have to wait until the end of the war to get a new position.

    When Huang Zu¡¯s letter for help was sent back to Xiangyang from Jiangxia, Gan Ning had already led the Jiangdong warships to engage in two battles with Huang Zu.  The two battles were not very fierce. Jiangxia Navy was prepared in advance and was not defeated at the beginning. It was Huang Zu's credit.

    After sending away the messenger soldiers from Jiangxia, Liu Pan looked at his counselors: "Gentlemen, Jiangxia is our important town in Jingzhou, so we must not lose anything. Now that Jiangdong is attacking, who should be sent to help?"

    Zhuge Liang, Liu Ba, and Xu Shu also read the letter and each had their own opinions on the matter.  Liu Ba was the first to speak. Mr. Liu Da bowed and said, "My lord, the Jiangdong navy is attacking. General Huang is the only one to resist it. I'm afraid it seems insufficient. Ba thought that General Cai should be sent to lead the troops to help."

    Liu Ba's calculations were very loud. Now there are 80,000 soldiers and horses in Xiangyang City, including 20,000 Liu Pan's own soldiers and horses, and more than 10,000 soldiers and horses brought by Wenpin, and the rest have been  Controlled by Cai Zhong and Cai He.

    The two brothers seized military power from Cai Mao. Although they were obedient on the surface, they had some ambitions to make things bigger. If they were not controlled, Xiangyang's stability would not last long.  Originally Liu Ba was still thinking about what to do, but a letter from Huang Zu told him not to think too much.

    "Otherwise, Jiangdong sent troops in a hurry and took the water route. How many soldiers and horses could there be?" Xu Shu objected: "What's more, if Cai Zhong leads the troops to Jiangxia, wouldn't it be even more chaotic? If Huang Zu and Cai Zhong had a dispute,  And what should we do if we lose the city?"

    When Xu Shu thought this way, he was analyzing it completely from the perspective of war. He was just thinking about how to protect Jiangxia and how to avoid defeat.  This is very similar to his character, and there are no distracting thoughts.

    Liu Ba and Xu Shu had different starting points for their opinions, so their views could not be the same. Each argued about the truth, which almost made Liu Pan's head explode.  Logically speaking, Liu Pan still prefers Liu Ba, who has been friends with him for more than ten years, but Jiangxia is really so important that Liu Pan doesn't dare to make a decision easily to avoid being emotional.

    Liu Ba and Liu Ba talked for a long time. Liu Pan suddenly saw that Zhuge Liang had not spoken yet, and quickly asked: "Mr. Kong Ming, do you have any good ideas?"  Zhuge made the most plans.

    "Lord, Liang thinks that what both gentlemen said is reasonable." Seeing Liu Pan's question, Zhuge Liang spoke slowly: "Reinforcements must be sent, but they should not be too many. In Liang's opinion, Jiangdong sent troops to make a surprise attack from the waterway at this time.  The goal is not just Jiangxia."

    "If the lord does not send reinforcements, Huang Zu will be weak alone. Even if he can defend Jiangxia, he will fall into the enemy's suspicion. And if the lord sends heavy troops to support Jiangxia, Jiangdong will definitely send troops and horses to march westward by land."

    "Liang thought it would be most appropriate for General Cai Zhong to lead an army of eight thousand, or twenty thousand, to support Jiangxia. In this way, Cai Zhong could only obey Huang Zu's orders when he arrived in Jiangxia, and the lord could also take advantage of the opportunity to subdue the soldiers in the city."

    Zhuge is now just starting out, so it may not be possible for him to personally command a battle.  However, his vision is much higher than that of others, and the commanding heights from which he makes plans are extraordinary, so he considers everything comprehensively.

    "Okay, this is a great strategy!" Sure enough, Zhuge Kongming did not let him down, Liu Pan thought in his heart.  He shouted with joy, then realized that he had gone too far, so he sat down again.

    Liu Ba then looked directly at Zhuge, then bowed and said with a smile: "Kong Ming's strategy, my lord can implement it quickly."

    Liu Ba is a well-known figure for a long time. Zhuge Liang made a plan to kill Cai Hao and others before, and obtained the support of the Jingzhou clan, and won Liu Pan the position of the leader of the state. It was just that Zhuge Liang was playing some small tricks.  conspiracy.  Unexpectedly, this young junior was no more immature than himself in terms of means and control of the battle situation.

    On the second day, Cai Zhong left Xiangyang with eight thousand soldiers and rushed down the river to Jiangxia. He was still feeling happy in his heart.  He thought that Liu Pan would not be able to leave his Cai family, and even the Jiangdong navy would have to deal with it himself.

    And seven days later, the battle report suddenly came from Changsha, which confirmed Zhuge's thoughts.  Jiangdong raised 30,000 troops, commanded by two veteran generals Huang Gai and Han Dang, and marched towards the four counties of Jingnan.

    When the news came, Liu Pan was the first to find Zhuge and asked: "Kong Ming, what do you think of the war in Changsha?"

    Zhuge Liang touched his chin, thought for a moment and said: "Jiangdong's intention is clear, attack Jiangxia openly and capture Jingnan secretly. With the power of Jingnan and Jiangdong, we can encircle the two counties of Jingbei, our lord, and even have the opportunity to march to Xishu and take control of it."  Half a man."

    Listening to Zhuge¡¯s narration, Liu PanHe jumped, and his palm was half a big man's. How terrifying is that?  It becomes clear just by looking at Zhen Yao, who is now so powerful.  Although controlling the south is still not as good as the north, it is still terrifying enough.

    Zhuge Liang smiled calmly, he liked this effect: "My lord, there is no need to worry, you can safely send reinforcements this time. Although General Huang is brave in battle, he is old after all. Without help, he may not be the enemy of Jiangdong."  My lord can let General Wenpin lead 20,000 troops, and send Yuan Zhi as a military advisor to support Changsha. As long as we hold on for more than a month, the Jiangdong troops will retreat."

    Brother Zhu is very calm and confident, as if the Han Dynasty is just a chess game with a clear situation to him, and he is the most critical chess piece. Wherever you put it, you can win.

    "Just follow Kong Ming's words." Liu Pan was originally just a military commander on the battlefield, but it was difficult for him to consider the entire situation in Jingzhou, so he just went through Brother Zhu's suggestions in his mind and found that there were no flaws.  Just nodded in agreement.

    As the battle in Jingzhou gradually unfolded, Gan Ning led more than 10,000 naval troops to continue to contain Huang Zu and Cai Zhong.  At the same time, there was a stalemate in the battle situation in the south. The battle that was originally going smoothly was blocked outside Linxiang City in Changsha. Fortunately, Huang Gai and Huang Gai also knew the mission of leading their troops. They did not seek to capture Changsha quickly, but only  Conquer the surrounding counties and isolate Huang Zhong.

    There was a place for fun in Wuji. Guo Jiayu always liked to go there to drink some wine. Facing Jia Xu who looked like he was concentrating with his eyes closed, he smiled and asked: "Hey, Jingzhou is so lively now, Wenhe,  Do you think we should add some ingredients to him?"

    Jia Xu would not fool around like Guo Jia, nor did he care that he was being tricked by Zhuge Liang. He still closed his eyes and only slowly moved the corners of his mouth: "Let me tell my lord first. If my lord agrees, it may be possible."

    "Why wouldn't my lord agree? It's not yet time for Wuji to take action. My lord has long wanted to watch the excitement!" Guo Jia still knows Zhen Yao best, but this is a tacit understanding that can only be achieved by getting together frequently.

    "If you mobilize Xuzhou's troops, you have to know how to do it." Jia Xu had already been punished by Zhen Yao for giving orders privately without saying hello once, and he would not make such a 'mistake' again.

    Hearing what the other party said seemed to be out of tune, Guo Jia thought for a while but nodded and said: "That's fine. Tomorrow Jia will go and ask for an edict for the mobilization of troops and horses."

    "Well, I'll take my leave first!" Jia Xu didn't like this kind of romantic place. Now that the matter was over, there was no need to stay and waste time. He opened his eyes, got up and walked outside the house.

    "Hey~~" After a slight sigh, Guo Jia poured himself another glass, swinging the wine bottle in his right hand. After taking a sip, he lost interest and followed Jia Xu and left.

    Half a month later, an envoy from Xuzhou came to Jiangdong. He just handed over a letter and disappeared from the eyes of Jiangdong civil and military officials.  Sun Quan opened the letter, read it carefully, and handed it to Zhou Yu beside him without saying a word.

    Zhou Yu took the letter with confusion, but when he took it, he frowned. What was said in the letter almost completely revealed Jiang Dong's intentions, and he was willing to cooperate with Jiang Dong in a play.

    And when the letter changed hands several times and fell into the hands of a short, ugly man, his face was full of disbelief.  Jiang Dong's series of actions against Jingzhou were all planned by him. He was confident that even Jingzhou's civil and military officials could not see his purpose. Why could someone from far away in Wuji be able to see through it?

    "'Jiangdong should have a backup plan, hoping to mobilize Jingzhou's spies, and the purpose should be to seize the Yangtze River. But with what Jiangdong is doing now, it may not be possible to hide it from the enemy. My Lord is willing to help Jiangdong.'" This is just what the letter said.  This sentence undoubtedly slapped Jiangdong's counselors hard in the face.

    "Gong Jin, Zijing, and Shi Yuan, what do you three think of this letter?" The Lord of Jiangdong, who was sitting in the first seat, already had the bearing of a king, and his words revealed natural authority.

    Needless to say, Zhou Yu and Lu Su, but that ugly ghost is Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan.  Pang Tong left Jiangdong a few years ago and traveled around the Han Dynasty. In the end, he did not return to his hometown of Xiangyang, but came to Jiangdong.

    According to the last bet, Zhou Yu naturally admired Pang Tong happily. Even if they met and took a detour, Zhou Gongjin still had that magnanimity.

    But Pang Tong didn¡¯t do that brilliantly. The bet he made at the beginning was just to show his own skills and prove that he was no worse than Zhou Yu.  With the recommendation of Zhou Yu and Lu Su, although Sun Quan didn't like this ugly guy, he still accepted him.

    In order to prove his ability again, Pang Tong offered advice to Sun Quan. The strategy was very complicated, but the implementation of each link allowed Jiangdong to obtain Jiangxia with the least loss.

    Zhou Yu and others, including Sun Quan himself, were also impressed by this plan. But now that the plan has reached a critical moment, an outsider suddenly saw through it and wrote back to Jiangdong. How could this not surprise Sun Quan?

    "hostSir, in Tong's opinion, the letter from Xuzhou cannot be false.  "The plan came from Pang Tong, and he was the one with the most say at the moment: "If my lord captures Jiangxia, the goal of the war will change from north to west.  Now Zhen Yao still can't take care of Jing Yang. He is happy to see Jiangdong and Jingzhou attack in this way.  "

    Zhou Gongjin also nodded: "Yu thinks so too. This is a conspiracy. Is it possible that my lord will give up on Jiangxia? Instead of making amends with Jingzhou and fighting against the enemy together?"

    Under normal circumstances, Lu Su rarely spoke as long as there was no dispute. He smiled and nodded, which was considered to have expressed something.

    The three conspirators under his command all thought so, and Sun Quan naturally chose to believe it: "Someone, go and call Ling Cao and his son."

    Lingcao and his son arrived after a while. Sun Quan and Pang Tong looked at each other and then said: "The war in Jingzhou is intense now, and I have a matter that I leave to you and my son." It was exactly what was written in Xuzhou's letter.  The ¡®backhand¡¯ mentioned.

    Ling Cao and Ling Tong, father and son, have not been deployed for a long time, so there will be no delay in getting military orders at this time.  After two days, he led five thousand soldiers out of the city and marched towards Jingzhou.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Because there are literary recruits coming to help, and Xu Shu, a good strategist who is good at fighting, Huang Zhong no longer needs to defend the city and passively face the enemy.  Gradually, the battle situation in Changsha opened up, and Huang Gai could no longer gain the absolute upper hand.

    Compared with Changsha, which only has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, Gan Ning, who has hundreds of warships, is also having trouble fighting. Not to mention Jiangxia City, even the water village outside the city can't handle it.  Moreover, the more Gan Ning fought, the more anxious he became, and it seemed that he had lost the elegance of the Jinfan Army back then.

    "Urgent report, urgent report, urgent report from Jiangling." A quick call sounded in the Xiangyang Prefecture. When the messenger soldier saw Liu Pan, he didn't even have time to catch his breath, so he said: "My lord, Jiangling is in danger. Jiangdong has sent a soldier."  Horses, go to Baling, cross the Youjiang River, and have arrived outside Jiangling City."

    "How could this be so?" Liu Pan, who had been waiting for the troops from Jiangdong to return in vain so that he could hold a banquet to celebrate the victory as Zhuge said the one-month period was about to pass, heard that Jiangling was attacked and suddenly felt a dark cloud hanging over his head.  .  "Quick, summon Kong Ming to discuss matters!"

    Zhuge was in the military camp busy with the Cai family's troops for Liu Pan. Hearing his lord's urgent move, he hurried over without any time to think.  And after seeing the emergency report from Jiangling, everyone was confused by Jiangdong's actions.
