    [I have something to do tomorrow, so please take a day off. Tomorrow¡¯s update will be made up the day after tomorrow!  !  ¡¿ Wu Jun received the news that Cao Cao's army was heading south, and the Jiangdong soldiers and horses who had been prepared quickly gathered in Wu Jun to prepare for the attack.  ,, "My lord's 50,000-strong army has been assembled and can set off at any time. The grain and grass provided by Jingzhou have also been transported to Lujiang, and all the generals have been prepared to go out with the lord." On top of the Wujun city tower, Sun Ce watched the assembly from a high position.  The 50,000-strong army was completed, and beside them were Zhou Yu and several others, all of whom were famous generals and counselors in Jiangdong.  "Well, Gong Jin led an army of 50,000 to follow me first to cover it up. Zijing, Han Dang, you two will lead an army of 50,000 to Jiujiang in ten days. You must make a feat by surprise." Sun Ce looked under the tower.  The soldier said to his back.  This time Jingzhou has prepared a hundred thousand troops. In addition to the fifty thousand troops assembled here, there are also fifty thousand troops scattered in surrounding counties. With just one order, the fifty thousand troops can be assembled quickly.  This 50,000-strong army was led by Lu Su and Han Dang. They were accompanied by Zhou Tai and several other young generals such as Lu Meng and Chen Wu who had recently made a name for themselves in Jiangdong. Even Sun Quan was transferred to Lu Su's side and deactivated. It could be said that they were gathered together.  It took less than half of Jiangdong's strength.  Sun Ce led Zhou Yu, Zhang Hong, Cheng Pu and other generals to the north of Lujiang to cover up the enemy's actions.  "Don't worry, my lord, Su has already prepared a countermeasure, and I will definitely live up to my lord's trust." Lu Su bowed and saluted, and was overjoyed for his trust in Sun Ce.  "Zibu will be fully responsible for the affairs of Jiangdong." Sun Ce turned to look at Zhang Zhao. Apart from Zhang Zhao, I am afraid that no one is qualified to do this.  "Promise." Zhang Zhao bowed in response, not surprised by this. In the past, whenever Sun Ce went on an expedition, he stayed behind in Jiangdong. He was used to it, and he was also quite familiar with matters such as the transportation of grain and grass to stabilize Jiangdong.  Having arranged everything properly, Sun Ce led Zhou Yu and others down the city tower, jumped on their horses and galloped out of the city. The 50,000-strong army headed towards the Lujiang River in a mighty manner.  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ ¡°My lord, Zhongde has sent news that we will be able to reach the outside of Wancheng tomorrow. We will take a short rest.  We can attack the city directly." In Cao Cao's tent, Guo Jia and others gathered here to discuss the war.  "Well, Nanyang has experienced wars for a long time, and the other cities are not a problem. Only Wancheng is strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if Zhongde has a hundred thousand troops, he will probably have to use some means. Who is responsible for guarding Wancheng this time?  "Cao Cao also had a serious look on his face at this time. It was obvious that he valued this battle extremely and could not tolerate any mistakes.  "The person guarding Wancheng is Liu Qi's general Huang Zhong. Although Huang Zhong is nearly fifty years old, his martial arts skills are not bad at all. It is said that no one in Jingxiang can defeat him with a big sword. When Liu Qi killed Zhang Xian, he only had  Gan Ning was able to match this person, and Liu Qi's subordinate Xu Yuanzhi came with him. Xu Yuanzhi was one of the first people to follow Liu Qi. It is said that Zhongde was quite difficult to deal with this person.  I understand, and I am quite afraid of him. I didn't expect that his opponent in this battle would be Xu Shu." Guo Jia frowned and said, "This time Liu Qi mobilized more than 100,000 troops from all over Jingzhou, including 50,000 troops.  In Wancheng, I'm afraid there will be a hard battle." "If it's ten, it'll be surrounded, if it's five, it'll be attacked, and if it's doubled, it'll be divided.  Everyone here is familiar with the art of war. Although Cheng Yu has twice as many soldiers and horses as Xu Shu, Xu Shu is defending the city and it is not easy to win easily.  "Well, is Xu Shu in Wancheng?" Cao Cao looked as usual, as if he didn't have the slightest fear of Xu Shu.  "Xu Shu, Huang Zhong, after receiving Liu Qi's order, has rushed to Wancheng today." Guo Jia bowed. Although Liu Qi gathered a hundred thousand troops, he moved one hundred thousand troops to the north of Xiangyang one step earlier.  After receiving the news that Cao Cao was going south, these soldiers and horses had already rushed to Wancheng. Compared with Xu Shu, Huang Zhong was one point faster.  "Then who did Liu Qi send to garrison Hanzhong?" Cao Cao asked.  "The one stationed in Hanzhong is Wenpin, a famous general in Jingzhou. With him is Zhuge Liang, who is known as the Wolong in Jingxiang. It was this man who made the plans for the last defeat in Jiangdong and the capture of Yizhou. There are also 50,000 people stationed in Hanzhong.  Soldiers and horses." Guo Jiadao.  "Oh, you just said that Jingzhou only gathered 100,000 soldiers and horses this time. Now they are all dispatched. Are you afraid that there will be no chance after the defeat?" Cao Cao chuckled and said: "These 100,000 soldiers and horses were all defeated by my army."  If I send another army to bypass Wancheng and go straight to Xiangyang, won't Liu Qi have to be captured without mercy?" Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, then sighed secretly, raised his head and looked at Cao Cao and said helplessly: "My lord, Jingzhou has many swamps, I'm afraid of it?  Once the army penetrates deep into Jingzhou, it will definitely be blocked. When the time comes, the army will be on thin ice and easily taken advantage of by Jingzhou navy. Moreover, Jingzhou has reached an alliance with Jiangdong, and Jiangdong Sun Ce will also lead the army within a few days.?50,000 troops went north to fight against the lord together with Liu Qi in Jingzhou.  " "Sun Bofu was so courageous at that time that he was able to put aside the hatred of killing his father and seizing his wife for the time being and forming an alliance with Jingzhou?  "Although he had expected it, Cao Cao was still frightened when he heard that Sun Jian's 50,000-strong army was marching north. Sun Ce's bravery, coupled with the fierceness of Jiangdong's soldiers and horses, could indeed cause him some trouble. "The counties in Runan have arrived early.  The city had been reinforced and reinforcements sent half a year ago.  It shouldn't be difficult to contain Sun Ce. I think Liu Qi will never allow Jiangdong troops to enter Jingzhou.  Xu You said at this time: "As long as one of Wancheng and Hanzhong wins, the outcome of this battle can be determined."  " "Zi Yuan is right, Sun Ce won't have too much trouble in a short time. The key is that Wancheng and Hanzhong can win as soon as possible.  "Guo Jia also nodded in agreement with Xu You's statement. "Well, send additional scouts to pay close attention to Hanzhong and Wancheng, and report immediately as soon as there is news.  An order was also sent to the counties in Runan. If Sun Ce went north, he could only hold on and not go to war.  "Cao Cao fixed his gaze and ordered. "In addition, send me a spy into Jingzhou to find out where Liu Bei is at this time?  "Cao Cao was extremely afraid of Liu Bei. He also knew that this man had great ambitions and would definitely take advantage of the situation if he had the opportunity. Since this man arrived in Jingzhou, he must have wanted to use Jingzhou to rise. Since he could use this man in this way, he might be able to make Jingzhou  There was a big chaos. "Well, it is said that since Liu Bei arrived in Jingzhou, he has been ignored by Liu Qi, and even his generals in Guan Yu have been imprisoned. If we can instigate this person to cause trouble in Jingzhou, it will be extremely beneficial to the lord.  Xu You nodded and said. ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ Just when Cao Cao and others were discussing how to deal with the alliance between Jingzhou and Jiangdong, the ten men led by Cao Ren  Ten thousand troops have arrived outside Wancheng and have set up camp ten miles outside Wancheng. At the same time, Xu Shu and Huang Zhong inside Wancheng also received news of the arrival of Cao Cao's army. The atmosphere in the city suddenly became tense, and the war was imminent.
