Chapter 157: The National Scholar (Part 2)

The next day, we set off and the army rushed to Changsha.

In early March, the stronger the spring atmosphere, the larger the water in the rivers, and the weeds are green.

Wherever the army was heading, pedestrians were escaping, but there was a sudden sing of singing coming with the wind on the far mountain.

"The thunder is about to pull out the three mountains, and the sound of the rapid rain is like falling down hundreds of rivers. But I dream of a strange cold invading guests. If it is a shaking, Hu smoke? The thorns in the countryside are flowing, and the rivers and Luo are smelly for a few years. I plan to detain the Jiuguan Jiandi, but people are not big or big. Chu and Han divided the arguments and the scholars were worried, and they returned to the east to cut the gap again? Zheng Jun established his righteousness but did not have a name, and Xiang Bo and Hu Yan would be the last name of Liu?"

Although this praise is subtle, it can be heard for miles and clearly visible. When Wang Hongyi heard it, he was stunned. For some reason, the past life suddenly appeared in front of him.

In the blink of an eye, I suddenly remembered "Nian Nujiao. Nostalgia for the Red Cliff"

The river goes east, the waves wash away, and the eternal heroes. To the west of the old building, the humanity is the red cliff of Zhoulang of the Three Kingdoms. The rocks penetrate the sky, the waves slam the shore, and thousands of snow are rolled up. The country is like a painting, and there are so many heroes at the moment.

I remember Gongjin, when Xiao Qiao first got married, she was so handsome and handsome. She had a feather fan and a scarpment. While chatting and laughing, the masts and oars were destroyed. My hometown was wandering in a state of ecstasy, and I should laugh at me for being full of love. Life is like a dream, and I will pour out the moon in the river.

The Yangtze River runs across the east and west, extending thousands of miles, and its tributaries connect a vast area. The Yangtze River connects Bashu on the east, passes through Jingxiang on the middle, and connects Wuyue on the east, and echoes the upper and lower reaches of the upper and lower reaches, making the situation in the entire southern region complete. In addition, the Yangtze River itself plays a natural barrier to block the impact of the northern cavalry.

On Earth, Emperor Wen of Wei Cao Pi conquered Sun Wu in the south, and his troops arrived at Guangling. Facing the Yangtze River, he had to sigh: "Alas! The sky is limited to the north and south. Although Wei had thousands of martial cavalry, there was no use of it, and it was impossible to make it."

Fu Jian attacked Jin, thinking that he had a million troops and "spouted the whip on the river, which was enough to cut off the current", but he could not cross the Yangtze River and destroy Jin.

I wanted to get to the south, so I used the Yangtze River as a trench, first set the foundation, and then restore the north to restore the energy of Shenzhou.

When I thought about it, I sent an order. After a moment, I heard a roar in the army.

"The river goes east, the waves wash away, and the eternal heroes. To the west of the old building, the humanity is the red cliff of the Liulang of Zheng Guo. The rocks penetrate the sky, the waves slam the shore, and thousands of snow are rolled up. The country is like a painting, and there are so many heroes at the moment."

"I remember Huang Chu when he was young, he was leading the army with a heroic figure. He was a feather fan and a scarpment. While chatting and laughing, the masts and oars were destroyed. The homeland was wandering in a state of great emotion, and he should laugh at me, and he would have a bright hair. Life is like a dream, and a bottle will be poured on the moon in the river."

Zheng Guoliulang is a hero in this world.

After modifying this, you can use it. The songs come out and echo in the valley.

At this time, a county town

A bearded man is reporting.

"This time the Shu army went on an expedition, Hanzhong left 10,000 troops, including the wing soldiers. Still, 50,000 troops are coming up, and it will be achieved tomorrow."

"In the army, except for 2,000 cavalry, 30,000 infantry, 5,000 Pili Camp, and 10,000 logistics camp..."

"Pili Camp..." At this time, the listener made an inaudible sound.

At this time, Jiangling Military Camp

The cold wind blew, and even during the day, walking outside would make people feel cold, perhaps the last attack.

In the camp, the light was slightly brighter, flashing in only a few tents.

When camping, it is difficult to continue burning in such weather. Except for occasional tents that are still lit, most parts of the campsite are darkened.

The main tent is the temporary residence of Zheng Pingyuan, the commander of the Jingzhou Army. There is only a glass lamp in the tent, emitting light.

Although glazed lamps are not valuable expenses for Zheng Pingyuan, even Zheng Pingyuan is not in his mind when facing the upcoming war.

The light in the tent is not as bright as the lobby of the home, so the sight is enough.

The other tents have no lights, so oil lamps are also a considerable expense for soldiers. In the tents where a few soldiers of the team are in the ranks, the dim lights can be seen faintly, and they are almost invisible in the wind and rain.

Although Zheng Pingyuan's confidant generals had glass lanterns given by Zheng Pingyuan, there were only a few people who had never rested at this time.

At this time, multiple figures were shaking in Zheng Pingyuan's tent.

Zheng Pingyuan was still having dinner, and the glass lamp emitted a soft light. On a table, there were four people, the chairman of Zheng Pingyuan, Ji Gui, the counselor of the Jingzhou Army, a military general, and a literati.

The dishes were very rich. During the march, the chef Zheng Pingyuan still cooked small meals for him every day.

Eight dishes and one soup, the taste is very delicious.

People from aristocratic families all pay attention to etiquette. Even military generals who usually speak and act roughly, sit in front of Zheng Pingyuan with a straight posture, chewing slowly, trying not to make a sound, and show a respectful attitude.

"Mr. Zhang, don't you agree with attacking Yiling?" Zheng Pingyuan put down his chopsticks and asked when he saw that everyone had almost finished eating.

Ji Gui said, "Yes, Mr. Zhang, Shu is easy to defend but difficult to attack. He may not be considered a climate for him to take down Yiling and Shangyong. He won Yiling but had no follow-up support. He was isolated and helpless. The lord mobilized the navy to fight back with all his might, seize Yiling and seal the Three Gorges."

"Our army can join forces with Sun Chang in Xiangyang, provide infantry support, and jointly attack the Shu army."

Xiangyang has a very important strategic position, connecting Ruluo to the north, Qinshu to the west, Huguang to the south, and Wuyue to the east.

In the world, the focus is on Xiangyang...

Xiangyang has been a place where military strategists have fought for since ancient times, and the same is true in this world.

Wang Hongyi's army came out of Shangyong to force Xiangyang and Jiangling to resist.

Mr. Zhang, named Zhang Yu, heard this, put down his chopsticks, looked at Zheng Pingyuan sitting in the chairman's seat with a smile, and said, "Mr. Ji is right. In this way, it is not difficult to block the Shu army, but have you ever thought about the truth that the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole is behind?"

Several attendants in the tent retreated when Zheng Pingyuan was talking. At this time, they frowned and asked, "Mr. Zhang means Wu Jun?"

"Now the world is in chaos, and the princes from all over the country are rising one after another. The court has become empty-handed in Wei Yue's claim to be the Queen of Wu. If the King of Wu wants to firmly sit in Wu Yue, he will seize Jingzhou. There is no doubt about this."

"Shu is unified and a powerful vassal is also a powerful vassal. It can be said that both are tigers and wolves. Think about it, if you attack Yiling in the west and support Xiangyang in the north, who will consume their troops and vitality?"

"Even if it can be blocked for a while, will the lord still have the energy to expand the territory at that time? After Wei Yue wiped out the five towns, with a blow from behind, can the lord resist?"

As soon as he said this, Zheng Pingyuan was shocked and couldn't help but drink all the wine in the glass. After Zheng Pingyuan finished drinking it, he realized that he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He poured a glass for himself, raised it to his lips, took a sip, and said, "Mr. Zhang, what's your point? What's the trick? Please tell me!"

"The Shu army is in Yiling, but it is just a partial army, and it is impossible to threaten Jiangling. Now the plan is to expand its strength, not to fight hard."

"Xiangyang moat is wide, hundreds of meters away, and the city wall is extremely strong. Even if Wang Hongyi has a huge rock trench, it will be difficult to shake it. At least it cannot be shaken for a while. Why should you worry about the lord?"

"For the present, we are to conquer Changsha and take Jingnan. The six counties in Jingnan were first barbaric, but by three hundred years, they have been densely populated and no less than Jingbei. This is the capital of the emperor." Zhang Yu's voice seemed to be calm and naturally carried a taste that can soothe people's hearts and deeply rooted in people's hearts. Even among the people here, there are irritable generals and strategists who are good at planning people's hearts, but when Zhang Yu said such words, everyone heard them.

"But Mr. Zhang, according to you, even if this is the case, can we seize Jingnan before the city of Xiangyang is broken, or the King of Wu swept the five towns? Even if we seize Jingnan, we will not have time to consolidate and digest it in less than a year or two." Ji Gui asked, not questioning, just asking.

"Haha, Mr. Ji said it very well. I have a plan, it depends on whether the lord can decide." Zhang Yu said, and outside the tent, there was a whistling sound of wind, as if a roaring tiger and wolf were colluding to harm the world.

"Mr. Zhang, please tell me."

"Ship the court, offer Jiangling, the Grand Governor, and take Jingnan!" Zhang Yu said word by word, his eyes as lightning, staring at Zheng Pingyuan.

Zheng Pingyuan was shocked, stood up suddenly, and said, "What?"

I immediately realized that I had lost my composure, frowned and walked, thinking about the meaning of this.

Zhang Yu didn't defect to him for a long time, but he was generous, skilled in strategies and strange plans, was very resourceful and decisive, and had a broad mind. Zheng Pingyuan was impressed by Zhang Yu's talent and character, and was moved and said: "If you get along with Zhang Yu, you will not feel drunk without feeling like you are drunk."

He is both a monarch and a good friend, and then he calmed down and thought about this sentence. If someone else said that, he would have been taken out as a spy long ago - Jiangling's strategic position is very important. If he occupied Jiangling, he could take over all the dangers of Wushan. It is the center of Jingzhou and the base camp of Zhengpingyuan. How could he hand over it over?

But after thinking about it carefully, there are some meanings, which are just unthinkable.

"Although Wang Hongyi captured Shangyong, he was not an impatient person. He might not have done anything to fight Xiangyang to the death, but it is inevitable to win Xiangyang or Jiangling. I suspect that it is better to take Jiangling!"

"The King of Wu is looking at Dandan. Once the five towns are wiped out, the troops will immediately suppress Jingzhou, and the first one will be to take Jiangling."

"Lord, the tiger and wolf have arrived at this time. Taking possession of Jiangling will only cause a crushing opportunity and no chance to compete for hegemony."

"But at this time, if the lord submits to the court, presents Jiangling, and seeks the position of Jingnan Grand Governor, do you think the court or the King of Wu will allow it?"

"The king of Wu is now the great enemy, the Duke of Shu. We submitted the imperial court and he will agree to the promise that the two families will jointly attack the Duke of Shu."

"Now Shu attacks Xiangyang and Wu sweeps five towns, and they don't care about us. As long as he receives the imperial edict, Jingnan can conquer it in a short time. In the eyes of the people of the world, there is still some power. The lord can take advantage of the power of the court or the King of Wu to conquer Changsha, at this time, at least half of the remaining counties will be subdued, and it takes a year to consolidate Jingnan."

"If the lord wants to seize the world, the only way is to use Jiangling as bait to let Shu and Wu fight. The lord sits firmly in Jingnan, accumulates strength, and wait for the opportunity."

"This is a brilliant plan and the only chance of the lord. I hope the lord will understand clearly." Zhang Yuping calmly said, as if the secrets of heaven were in his hands, and his insight was like fire.

Suddenly, everyone in the tent was stunned.
