The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 496

In order to quickly occupy Yizhou, Sun Quan mobilized elite soldiers and horses to form a conquest army, and mobilized many advisers and fierce generals to listen to him. Lu Su was just one of them. In addition to Lu Su, there were also Zhuge Jin, Gu Yong, Zhang Hong, Luo Tong, etc. .

The main generals are Zhou Tai, Ding Feng, Zhu Heng, Chen Wu, Zhu Ran, Lu Fan, Quan Qiong, etc., are all famous Jiangdong generals. As for the older generation of generals, Sun Quan does not want to use them, but also needs these veterans to guard parties.

It is no wonder that Chen Ziming feels that Jiangdong is weak. In this era of talents as the core strength, Jiangdong Sun Quan has too few talents, especially the top strategists and fierce generals, which cannot be compared with Liu Bei and Cao Cao.

People like Gu Yong, Zhang Hong, etc. are mostly good at government affairs, and it is a bit embarrassing for them to make suggestions. Fortunately, Jiangdong also has top civil and military personnel such as Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Zhou Tai, and Ding Feng. Bright eye.

"What's Zijing's plan, tell me quickly." Sun Quan was so excited that he asked for a plan when he heard Lu Su's words. He was blocked at Lujin Pass for nearly a month, and Jiangdong soldiers suffered heavy casualties in battle, and urgently needed a way to break through.

"My lord, the terrain of Yizhou is dangerous and there are many barriers. It is difficult to attack it head-on, so we should use our strength." Lu Su said seriously to Sun Quan: "Liu Bei and Cao Cao are powerful. We cannot delay attacking Yizhou for too long. Break it quickly."

"Why borrow strength?" Sun Quan asked hastily.

"The power is in Yizhou." Seeing Sun Quan's puzzled face, Lu Su hurriedly said: "In the south of Yizhou, there is a foreign race called Nanman, who lives in the deep forest and does not know how to educate them. .”

"Liu Zhang sent troops to suppress it many times, but with little effect. He is indeed the enemy of Yizhou." Lu Su said to Sun Quan: "This family is good at fighting and has penetrated into Yizhou. It is really the enemy of Yizhou."

"How can I receive this power?" Sun Quan also understood that Lu Su meant to use these southern barbarians to attack Yizhou, so that he could quickly break through the barriers in Yizhou.

"Yizhou is powerful. Although the Nanman refused to accept it, they lost to Yizhou's soldiers and horses, and only one side shrank. Now that Lord Qin's army is out, they will definitely respond with troops." Lu Su said: "However, the Nanman is often defeated by Yizhou. If the lord wins, the Nanman will take the opportunity to raise troops; if the lord cannot attack for a long time, the Nanman will not be able to shrink back."

"Now the lord's soldiers are in danger, unable to attack for a long time, and the Nanman will not move lightly. At this time, if the lord sends people to the Nanman, treat them with sincerity, lure them with profits, and let them attack Liu Zhang, in this way, it will be beneficial. The prefecture is full of wars, and the morale of the army is in turmoil. If the Lord takes the opportunity to attack it, Yizhou will be broken."

"Very good!" Hearing this, Sun Quan regained his spirits immediately, and was overjoyed immediately, rewarding Lu Su greatly.

Not long after, Sun Quan sent an envoy Gu Yong to detour to the land of the Nanman to contact the Nanman, so that the Nanman rebelled and created opportunities for Jiangdong.

The existence of Nanman, similar to Shanyue in Jiangdong, is a big trouble for the ruler. If it is not handled properly, it will set the ruler's backyard on fire. As the lord of Jiangdong, Sun Quan has a deep understanding and has to mourn for Liu Zhang for a while.

"Hey..." Lu Su stood on the hillside and looked at the surrounding mountains, sighing and frowning.

"Why is Zijing sighing here?" At this moment, Zhuge Jin came to Lu Su's side and asked suspiciously. It stands to reason that Lu Su had just conspired for Sun Quan. Once this strategy was successful, he would be Jiangdong's great hero , the future is limitless, you should be happy.

"Ziyu doesn't know something." Seeing that the person who came was Zhuge Jin, who had a good relationship with him, Lu Su sighed softly and said, "There is chaos today, and all the heroes are rising together. side."

"However, Liu Bei and Cao Cao's generation occupy the north of the Han Dynasty, with millions of mercenaries and strong strength, they are the enemies of Jiangdong." Lu Su said with a worried face: "Now that Liu Bei is fighting with Cao Cao, Jiangdong has a chance to breathe. Once the two decide the victory and defeat and rule the north, at that time, a million troops will come, how can Jiangdong stop them?"

"Zi Jing is too worried." After listening to Lu Su's words, Zhuge Jin shook her head slightly and said: "Liu Bei and Cao Cao are both heroes, with equal strength, and they can be defeated at once."

"Furthermore, the lord occupies an important place in the east of the river and watches the changes in the world across the river. No matter who is powerful Liu or Cao, the lord can unite with the weaker people to fight against them and maintain the balance of all parties. How can we unify the northern land?"

"The lord is now attacking the land where the Yizhou emperor rose. Once Jiangdong occupies Yizhou, he will not be weaker than Liu and Cao. At that time, the lord can sit back and watch the changes in the world, advance and attack, retreat and defend, and stand invincible." land."

As Zhuge Jin said, once Sun Quan occupies Yizhou and his strength increases greatly, he will not be afraid of Liu Bei and Cao Cao at that time. Unless Liu Bei and Cao Cao jointly attack Jiangdong, Jiangdong will remain invincible.

Is it possible for Liu Bei and Cao Cao to unite? Not to mention that Liu Bei and Cao Cao are desperately fighting now. Even if the war ceases, Liu Bei and Cao Cao will regard each other as mortal enemies, unless Sun Quan does something outrageous and forces Liu Bei and Cao Cao to unite to attack.

"Ziyu doesn't know something." Knowing that Zhuge Jin was too optimistic, Lu Su said in a deep voice, "Cao Cao and Liu Bei are now fighting for the land of Liangzhou. Once the two decide the winner in Liangzhou, there may be a complete truce. On the contrary, neither Cao Cao nor Liu Bei will sit back and watch Jiangdong occupy the key areas of Yizhou, if Jiangdong does not enter Yizhou as soon as possible, it will be difficult to seek the land of Yizhou."

"Zi Jing is too worried." Zhuge Jin shook his head and said, "Now that Cao and Liu are out together, the war between all sides will surely last for a long time, and will it be easy to tell the winner?"

"And even if the two decide the winner, the soldiers are all exhausted, so how can they spare any energy to intervene in Jiangdong's attack on Yizhou?"

"Chen Ziming is in Liangzhou..." Lu Su's words left Zhuge Jin speechless, and he didn't know how to refute.

Chen Ziming has created too many miracles, no one can guarantee that Chen Ziming can defeat Cao Cao quickly, even if he can't defeat Cao Cao, Chen Ziming will probably come up with a solution, which will bring a lot of trouble to Jiangdong's attack on Yizhou.

What they didn't know was that, just as Lu Su was worried, the victory and defeat in Liangzhou had already been divided, and the truce between Cao and Liu was imminent. Otherwise, I don't know if Sun Quan still has the confidence to continue attacking Yizhou.

"Chen Ziming is weak now, and Liangzhou is hard to defend." Zhuge Jin didn't want Chen Ziming to win. Liu Bei's current strength is already strong enough. If Cao Cao doesn't strengthen a little, he won't be Liu Bei's opponent.

"Hey." Lu Su sighed: "If Cao Cao occupies Liangzhou, Hanzhong will fall into Cao Cao's hands. At that time, Cao Cao will take advantage of the situation and compete with Jiangdong for Yizhou. How can we stop it?"
