Three Kingdoms: defect to Liu Bei and backhand intercept Mrs. Hu Mi

Chapter 180 Gong Jin is really my son-in-law!
Pengze City, located in the south of the Yangtze River, on the edge of Poyang Lake, is the capital of Jiujiang County.

Three days ago, Sun Ce secretly entered Jiujiang and attacked Pengze City.

After the inside and outside were combined, the city gate opened, and everything was as Zhou Yu expected, and grabbing it was like picking something out of a bag.

On the city wall, seeing that Pengze City had regained its former peace, Sun Ce raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Gongjin, Jiujiang has been captured, and now only Yuzhang is left with panic. Do you think we should pursue the victory and capture it completely? "

"Liu Bei is not slow in his actions. I heard that he destroyed Kuaiji, forced Wang Lang to surrender, and occupied the territory of five counties. His strength should not be underestimated!"

"If he regrets it, there will be complications."

Zhou Yu stared into the distance: "I'm not worried that Liu Bei will regret it. He is too far away from Yuzhang."

"Even if we mobilize our troops now, I'm afraid we won't be able to arrive in time."

"I'm worried about Huainan."

"Huainan?"

Sun Ce was stunned: "What do you mean by this?"

"Does Gong Jin think Yuan Shu can't defend Shouchun City?"

"Even if it is as you expected, with the [-] elite soldiers in Shouchun City, the city is strong and secure, and it should be okay to defend it for a month. It has only been ten days, less than half a month, how could it be broken so fast?"

Zhou Yu sighed: "I have been restless these past two days. I always feel that something big is about to happen in Huainan."

"perhaps."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a burst of rapid footsteps.

"I have met the two generals. The latest battle report has come from Huainan. Shouchun City was captured by Lin Fan three days ago. Now he has sent troops to Hefei and is attacking with all his strength."

"I'm afraid Hefei won't be able to defend it for long."

Sun Ce was shocked, with a look of disbelief in his eyes: "Gong Jin, you got it right again."

"But how is this possible?"

"How on earth was Shouchun City breached?"

"Be more detailed, hurry up!!"

The scout told him everything about Lin Fan's attack on Shouchun City using offensive and defensive drills.

After hearing these words, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu both took a deep breath.

Both of them are good at fighting, how could they not know the horror of this move.

After dismissing the scouts, Sun Ce said, "I never expected that Lin Fan could come up with such a way to break the city."

"The attack and defense switched instantly between attacks, and they were unscathed. Their momentum made the defenders on the city wall restless and on guard at all times."

"How much oppression will it have on the spirit of the soldiers if this continues?"

"No wonder Lin Fan was able to break the city in ten days."

"How many people can block such an attack?"

Zhou Yu nodded slowly: "Even if it were us, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to support it for long."

Sun Ce said: "This is the most terrifying thing."

"Lin Fan is attacking Hefei now, but sooner or later he will go south to fight with us."

"How should we resist then?"

Zhou Yu was silent for a while, and his eyes were full of solemnity: "Rely on the natural dangers of the Yangtze River to stop Lin Fan's attack."

"This is the best method. When it crosses the Yangtze River, it will be like a dragon entering the sea and can no longer be resisted."

Sun Ce narrowed his eyes: "Not bad."

"Fight to the death with Lin Fan on the spear."

"Now that the city of Shouchun has been destroyed, I don't know how long Hefei can hold on."

"Without further delay, we need to capture Yuzhang as soon as possible and discuss with Liu Bei how to stop Lin Fan."

Zhou Yu nodded slowly: "I don't think this kind of defense is a long-term solution."

"The best strategy would be to take the initiative to attack and weaken Lin Fan's power."

"He developed so fast that he captured Xuzhou and Huainan in just a few months."

"After breaking through two sieges in a row, if he waits for him to secure his position in Huainan and Xuzhou, who can stop him?"

Sun Ce said: "But if we unite all the princes now, who will respond?"

"The last failure made all the princes feel disheartened, even us."

The words were not finished, but the meaning was very clear.Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Bo Fu, what do you think Lin Fan's next plan is?"

Sun Ce hesitated: "Of course we have to go south along the river."

"Even if there is a temporary shortage of warships, we can still capture Jiangdu and Luling first."

Zhou Yu shook his head: "I don't think Lin Fan will get entangled here."

"Ok?"

"Gongjin, what do you mean?"

Zhou Yu said: "Because there is more fat."

"The land of Jingxiang."

"what?"

"The land of Jingxiang!"

Sun Ce took a breath, and after careful consideration, his eyes were full of shock: "Does this mean that there will be turmoil in Jingxiang next?"

Zhou Yu nodded: "Exactly."

"Jingzhou is the largest continent in the world, prosperous and prosperous. Liu Biao has more than [-] soldiers and strong soldiers and horses."

"If anyone captures this place, the north can lead directly to Wanluo, the west can enter Yizhou, and the east can go down the river to threaten Yangzhou."

"This is where heroes come into play and where storms surge."

"Whoever can seize Jingxiang will take the initiative."

Sun Ce's eyes flashed with a different kind of fighting spirit, but he sighed softly for a moment: "We are single and weak, and I am afraid we are not qualified to get involved in this war."

"Whether it's Cao Cao in the north, Liu Biao in the country, or Lin Fan who wants to make plans, their power far exceeds ours."

"What can we do about it?"

"Ugh!!"

With a long sigh, Sun Ce's eyes were full of unwillingness, but there was nothing he could do.

Zhou Yu paced back and forth on the city wall.

After a while, the corner of his mouth raised slightly: "Maybe we don't have a chance."

"Ok?"

"what chance?"

Zhou Yu smiled and said: "It's possible to make a fortune with four taels."

"This"

Zhou Yu explained: "Everyone's eyes are on Jing Xiang, and they all want to get Jing Xiang."

"But Liu Biao has strong soldiers and horses, and plenty of food and fodder. If he wants to attack from the outside, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky."

"And no matter who wants to use force, it will definitely alarm the princes of the world. Not only will they not get it, they will also be besieged."

"Therefore, the only way to capture Jingxiang is to outsmart it and disintegrate Jingxiang from within."

"We only need to keep the three parties fighting in Jingxiang, and we will have a chance to take over the four counties in Jiangnan."

"These four counties are already remote and there are not many troops stationed there. There is civil strife in Jingxiang. Who has the experience to take care of them?"

"By taking four counties, our strength will be doubled."

"When the time comes, there will be more troops to resist Lin Fan. No matter who loses or wins in the Jingxiang battle, we will be invincible."

Sun Ce's eyes were filled with happiness, he clapped his hands and praised: "Wonderful, wonderful!"

"Gong Jin is really my son-in-law!"

"What's the first step now?"

Zhou Yu smiled and said: "It's easy to remind Liu Biao and let him put as much power as possible in Xiangyang to deal with the great changes that will follow."

"In this way, the defense of the four Jiangnan counties can only become weaker."

"We will send troops into the capitals of each county. When chaos breaks out in Xiangyang, we will immediately send troops to occupy the four counties first. Then we will sit back and watch Jingxiang to see if there is a chance to take control of Xiangyang."

"This is the best strategy!!"

Sun Ce put his palms together and praised: "Good!"

“This can be done!!”
