Three Kingdoms: Heir of Wolong, my father-in-law is Guan Gong

Chapter 128 Lu Meng’s military strategy and Jiangling City’s defensive weaknesses (Pursuit)

Outside the camp.

Wang Ping had already been waiting.

Behind Wang Ping, there stood twenty warriors, all of whom knew how to fight.

Wang Ping glanced at the two thousand soldiers Mi Fang had recruited and nodded secretly.

This group of brave soldiers had experienced the militarized farming in Luoyang, Xudu, and had been trained by Yu Jin who was under the rule of law. They were more disciplined than pure new soldiers.

"Starting immediately, you all will be stationed as generals, each leading one hundred men." Wang Ping nodded to Mi Fang, and then gave orders to the warriors behind him.

For a moment.

These two thousand brave soldiers were divided into twenty tuns, with a hundred people in each tun. These twenty brave soldiers were appointed as the tun generals.

The twenty generals also moved very quickly, dividing each village into twenty teams, and selecting one person from each team to serve as the team leader.

Only half an hour.

These two thousand brave soldiers marched in unison.

Mi Fang admired the ability of this entire army.

If Mi Fang were to organize these two thousand soldiers into formation, it would take even half an hour and Mi Fang would not be able to do it at dawn.

Looking at Wang Ping, Mi Fang had another small thought in her mind: "Wang Ping will be reused in the future. When this battle is over, he must win over him."

"I wonder if Wang Ping is married. If not, my widowed daughter is also a good choice."

Although the introduction of her widowed daughter to Zhuge Qiao failed, Mi Fang's idea of ​​​​finding a son-in-law has not changed for several years.

Mi Fang thought like this, and her eyes became energetic when she looked at Wang Ping.

"Prefect Mi, I'll go to the top of the city to help in the battle first." Wang Ping didn't know what Mi Fang was thinking, so he cupped his fists and saluted before leaving.

"General Wang, wait a moment!"

Mi Fang called Wang Ping and took off the armor he was wearing: "General Wang, this is the armor that the king gave me in the past, but I am not good at martial arts and have no chance to go to the battlefield."

"It would be a waste of natural resources for me to wear this armor. Today I will give it to General Wang on behalf of the king. General Wang must guard Jiangling City for the king."

Mi Fang's ability to win over people is also outstanding. Even if she gives Wang Ping Baojia, she still has to forcefully win over Liu Bei.

Wang Ping couldn’t refuse even if he wanted to!

Baojia was given to Mi Fang by Liu Bei, and now it was given to Wang Ping in the name of Liu Bei, with the purpose of letting Wang Ping guard Jiangling City for Liu Bei.

The core is all for Liu Bei, not for Mi Fang.

Wang Ping's scheming is naturally no match for Mi Fang's. As long as this treasure armor is given away, Wang Ping will have to accept Mi Fang's affection to a certain extent.

Wang Ping was an honest man. Although he felt something was wrong, thinking of the battle tonight, he just hesitated for a moment and put on the armor.

"Don't worry, Governor Mi. Your Majesty has treated me with great kindness, and I will defend Jiangling City for your Majesty to the death!" Wang Ping clasped his fists and saluted again.

With the addition of two thousand brave soldiers, the defensive pressure at the head of Jiangling City was greatly reduced.

Jiangling soldiers felt relaxed, but Jiangdong soldiers felt uncomfortable.

Seeing that the defense force at the top of the city was getting weaker and weaker, Pan Zhang wanted to capture Jiangling City before dawn and then celebrate his victory in Jiangling City.

As a result, two thousand brave soldiers suddenly appeared, all of them with high morale.

"Haven't most of the garrison troops in Jiangling City been transferred? Why are there so many people here again!" Pan Zhang couldn't help but feel angry.

Jiangling City is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

With this sudden increase of two thousand people, it was almost impossible for Pan Zhang to capture Jiangling City before dawn.

The news of the reinforcement of the city's defenses soon reached Lu Meng's ears. Lu Meng was taken aback and hurriedly came to the city to watch the battle.

"These brave soldiers mostly have Jiangbei accents, and they only have weapons and no armor. They are not Jiangling City's garrison."

"It's Yu Jin's surrendered soldiers!" "Zhuge Qiao could make Yu Jin's surrendered soldiers willingly go into battle to defend the city?"

Lu Meng's mood suddenly became heavy.

Zhuge Qiao can send some of his soldiers to defend the city, and then he can send all of his soldiers to defend the city.

Lu Meng felt a headache when he thought of the nearly 30,000 surrendered soldiers in Jiangling City.

The pressure came to Lu Meng.

"Commander, do you want to attack the remaining soldiers?" Pan Zhang wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed heavily.

Lu Meng looked solemn, shook his head and said: "Jiangling City is surrounded by water on three sides. Only this side can be attacked by force."

"There are thousands of soldiers standing guard at the top of the city. No matter how many soldiers I have, they can't overwhelm them. Without a numerical advantage, I can't destroy the morale at the top of the city."

"People in Jiangdong say that of Zhuge Jin's two sons, only Zhuge Ke is the smartest, while the second son Zhuge Qiao is as dull as an ordinary person."

"Looking at it today, Zhuge Jin is a simple and blunt man. He is foolish on the outside and showy on the inside. He is sharp and restrained. He is far better than Zhuge Ke!"

Pan Zhang saw that Lu Meng was still praising Zhuge Qiao at this time, and said anxiously: "Captain, if you don't suppress the troops, how can you capture Jiangling City?"

"No rush!" Although Lu Meng felt troubled, he did not panic: "I considered this situation when I decided to sneak attack Jiangling."

"A surrender is always a surrender. The morale of the surrender tonight is strong because Zhuge Qiao promised the benefits of money and silk. However, the promise of money and silk can sustain morale for a while, but it cannot last long."

"When the morale of the surrendered soldiers is exhausted, these surrendered soldiers will become Jiangling City's biggest weakness."

"If you have a weapon, it is a double-edged sword. If you don't use it well, you will hurt yourself."

He snorted a few times.

Lu Meng ordered: "Send people to Miangkou and ask Jiang Qin to go to Hanjinkou to prevent Guan Yu's navy in Fancheng from returning to Jiangling!"

"Send orders to Sun Jiao to station troops and horses at Lukou. If Lukou is lost, he will raise his head to see the Supreme Being."

"Let's send another letter to the Supreme. Cao Pi has already told Guan Yu privately about his plan to sneak into Jiangling, and asked the Supreme to build momentum in Huainan."

"If Cao Pi dares to be a fisherman in Wancheng and I cannot capture Jiangling City before Guan Yu returns to the army, we will take advantage of it and attack Hefei."

"Although Guan Yu hates my sneak attack on Jiangling City, he does not dare to ignore the overall situation and will definitely make peace with me."

"At that time, while Cao Pi has transferred the troops stationed in Huainan, we will advance together with Guan Yu to capture Huainan first and then Xuzhou."

Lu Meng made a good plan.

If Cao Pi cannot hold off Guan Yu before breaking Jiangling City, then he will turn around and attack Cao Cao.

Want to be a fisherman?

There are no doors!

Pan Zhang looked at Lu Meng in shock, not quite understanding what Lu Meng was thinking.

If you want to fight Guan Yu, then fight Guan Yu; if you want to fight Cao Cao, then fight Cao Cao?
  Pan Zhang scratched his head and put away these complicated thoughts.

I will kill the Han in one fight and try to figure out what the governor is thinking!
  After Pan Zhang left, Lu Meng stared at the head of Jiangling City, his eyes becoming sharp.

As the best commander in Jiangdong, Lu Meng had already fought with Sun Ce during his time.

Compared with what Lu Meng encountered during his more than twenty years of fighting, the difficulties he encountered now could only be considered ordinary.

Jiang Qin entered Hanjinkou to intercept Guan Yu, Sun Jiao entered Lukou to resist Su Fei, Lu Xun entered the Yi Road to intercept Liu Bei, and Sun Quan put pressure on Cao Pi.

If Zhuge Qiao asked Shiren to lead him, Lu Meng would basically be able to deal with it.

"Zhuge Qiao, although your idea of ​​​​wanting Shiren to disrupt the morale of our army is very good, it is a pity that your opponents are not limited to my soldiers."

"How many days can you stay in Jiangling City?"

"A surrendered soldier is a double-edged sword. If you use a surrendered soldier to defend the city, you won't be afraid of being wiped out on your neck in the middle of the night."
