Han Xiang

Chapter 411 The two sharp knives are not there

Seeing that Lu Su didn't understand, Long Xiang patiently explained:

"Whether we open a store in Xudu or Xiangyang, Cao Cao or Liu Biao will definitely be on guard. Giving the initiative to them will save a lot of trouble. As long as we ensure that the goods are sent by our people, the information will flow like water. .”

"Great!"

Lu Su clapped his palms affirmatively, and praised: "Yun Qi's blurt is just a fantastic idea, even I feel ashamed. If you are willing to give up all of Hefei, maybe the emperor's uncle will worship you as a military advisor."

Long Xiang shook his head bitterly: "I said I don't flatter each other, why is Zijing here again? I'm just an ordinary person, I can't let go of my father's old department, and I can't let go of my wife and children in Hefei. As a military division, I am already very contented to be able to provide him with some help."

"Ahem." Lu Su spread his hands helplessly, "Yun Qi won't let you boast, and he's too modest, it's too difficult for me."

Lu Su has been in charge of Hefei's military administration recently, so he hastily left after exchanging greetings with Long Xiang shortly after delivering the information.

That afternoon, Long Xiang unexpectedly visited the city defense battalion.

In order to prevent Tang Yu from interfering with Luo Yicheng's judgment, Long Xiang asked Luo Yicheng's intention behind his back.

After all, life has stabilized, and he really doesn't want to give up his wife and children to take risks, Long Xiang doesn't blame him at all.

They are all the parts left by his father. He has suffered hardships for so many years, so he should enjoy life.

If Luo Yicheng hesitated at all, Long Xiang would take the next best thing and let Lei Xu choose from the trilogy.

Lei Xu's trilogy are all Huainan locals, he was able to pick three thousand young men for Zhang Fei, and a dozen for Long Xiang with ease.

Just like Long Xiang's unexpected inspection, Luo Yicheng was also unexpectedly willing to go to Xudu.

He enjoys the thrill of adventure and is not worried about his wife and children staying in Hefei.

The group of people living the best life in Hefei now are the trilogy brought by Long Xiang at the beginning, as well as the surviving family members of the trilogy that Longyuan died in battle.

Luo Yicheng believed that even if he died in a foreign country, his wife and children would be taken care of and supported by others. This was the trust Long Xiang had accumulated over the years.

The next day, Luo Yicheng picked twenty entourages from his battalion and set off northward with Long Xiang's letter and mission. Liu Fu would send him to Xudu by boat in Shouchun.

At this time, war broke out in Yuzhang. Long Xiang did not intend to contact Liu Ye via the Yangtze River, but to let Luo Yicheng stabilize in Xudu, so he sent people to Jingzhou in the name of purchasing raw materials, and brought the most important opinions to Liu Bei by the way. .

That is to say, Xu Shu recommended Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain. Since the current history has changed greatly, there is no need to wait five years to visit the thatched cottage again.

The earlier Zhuge Liang left the mountain, the earlier Liu Bei gained power.

Long Xiang's judgment of not taking the water route was correct, and Liu Fu's scouting fishing boat was soon stopped in Chaohu Lake.

Tai Shici suddenly sent troops to block the mouth of the Ruxu River. Obviously, Zhou Yu's fleet was heading to the front to prevent information from falling into Hefei and Shouchun.

Hefei has few soldiers and can't make big waves. The key is Shouchun to Xudu in the north.

If Cao Cao makes a comeback and cooperates with Chen Deng in Dongcheng to go south, Jiangdong will face a catastrophe.

Zhou Yu didn't know that everything that happened in Yuzhang was written by the chief director of Xudu.

Cao Cao didn't want to take advantage of the fire to loot at all at this time. He wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight to rest and prepare, and he would not go south until he defeated his old enemy in Hebei.

After being defeated in Huainan in the first half of the year, Zhou Yu stationed the elite left behind by Sun Ce in Guangling, Dantu, and Danyang.

Although he was the prefect of Guangling, he was in charge of the Dantu camp after the war, leaving veteran Cheng Pu to continue guarding Guangling.

Among the more than [-] people withdrawn from Huainan, [-] soldiers led by Han Dang and Jiang Qin guarded Danyang. Their task was to guard the front line of the Yangtze River and prevent Cao Jun from going south to break through the Taishici line of defense, and then forcibly cross the Yangtze River to hit Jiangdong mainland.

The Dantu camp where Zhou Yu was stationed had [-] soldiers, and it was used as a mobile defense at any time to defend the Huainan or Guangling battlefields, but he never expected that something would happen to Yuzhang on the western front.

After receiving a request from Sun Ben in Yuzhang for help, Zhou Yu evacuated the Dantu and Danyang battalions and reported the seriousness of the incident to Sun Quan.

It is hoped that Sun Quan can draw some more troops from Kuaiji and Wu Commanderies, and go to Yuzhang by land from Guangde Hou Xukun.

Huang Zu's coalition forces exceeded 3, and Zhou Yu's [-] men alone were not likely to win. He was also afraid of stimulating Chen Deng in the east city. Increase troops.

Sun Quan originally had a problem with Zhou Yu, but Huang Zu had already reached the door of his house. At the critical moment when not sending troops might cause turmoil, he abandoned his prejudice and grievances, and quickly dispatched troops from Wujun and Kuaiji.

Urgently mobilized troops, and assembled 3000 people in the two counties.

Worried about the lack of troops, Sun Quan borrowed two thousand pieces from Zhang Zhao and handed them over to Xu Kun to drive to Yuzhang by land, and ordered the counties along the way to provide food and grass for military supplies.

The two armies of Zhou Yu and Xu Kun have a total of 6000 soldiers, which is evenly matched with the coalition forces of Huang Zu and Liu Pan.

Zhou Yu came quickly by boat and water, but instead of attacking Chaisang immediately, or going directly to Nanchang for rescue, he stationed in Pengze County to wait for Xu Kun, and sent scouts to inquire about the military deployment in Jingzhou.

Huang Zu stayed in the water army and the governor Chen just guarded Chaisang, and the remaining general Zhang Shuo supervised the rear army guarding Haihun. He led the main force and Liu Pan encircled Nanchang.

By the end of October, Xu Kun's troops had not yet arrived.

After Zhou Yu got the information, he tentatively attacked Chaisang Water Village.

The water village was built during Taishici's garrison period, and the facilities such as watchtowers, arrow towers, and fences are well matched.

Chen Jiushou defended tenaciously, and Zhou Yu didn't get half a point of advantage when the warship was superior.

It is difficult to regain the Chaisang Water Village, let alone the strong city of Haihun City.

Back then Liu Xun led troops to Haihun to 'borrow food', but they also returned due to the tight defense. Zhou Yu obviously would not gnaw hard bones.

Zhou Yu thought about it, but could only wait for Xu Kun's soldiers to arrive, and then went directly to Nanchang to rescue people.

If there is a fair decisive battle in the wild, Zhou Yu believes that Jiangdong's elite soldiers can win, at least that was the case in Sand Xian back then.

At the end of the month, Xu Kun led his troops to Pengze, and immediately joined forces with Zhou Yu to rescue Sun Ben.

Zhou Yu, Xu Kun fought several battles with Huang Zu and Liu Pan in the north of Nanchang, on the banks of the Ganshui River, and the two sides even ended in a draw.

Zhou Yu was quite surprised after the battle, because Sun Ce used the same force to blow up Huang Zu in Sha Xian, but now he has no momentum like before.

He forgot that during the western expedition to Jiangxia, Sun Ce and Tai Shici were like two sharp knives. By constantly beheading Huang Zu's generals, the momentum of Jiangxia's defenders quickly disintegrated, so that the attack on the city was like a broken bamboo, but now the two sharp knives are gone.

Huang Zu was amazed that Jiangdong's reinforcements came so quickly, and the hastily assembled troops were equal to his own.

But it was impossible for him to retreat easily, because he had found a feeling in these few battles.

The Jiangdong soldiers who left Sun Ce don't seem to be so arrogant.

This battle seems to be possible.
