"How many military horses did Gong Jin bring back when he returned to his army? " After hearing Zhou Yu's request for battle, Sun Quan did not immediately agree, but asked a question in turn.

"Qi reported to the lord, Yu brought back water this time, and the infantry soldiers were 14,000!"

"………………” After a little hesitation, Sun Quan said excitedly: "Gong Jin, except for you, 14,000 people, I will hand over all the 6,000 troops guarding Chaisang to you, and gather 20,000 to help you defeat the enemy. To fight against the Jingzhou army, all the generals and soldiers on the front line will be controlled by you. If you still need military, horses, food and grass, even if you come to Chaisang for help, I and Zhang Gong will prepare for you!" Then Sun Quan turned to Zhou Tai in the hall and said, "Youping, you will also follow Gong Jin to wait for the call!" Sun Quan knew that it was related to the life and death of Jiangdong at this moment, and without hesitation, he entrusted all the available military forces in his hands to Zhou Yu.

"Yu (the last general) received the order!" Zhou Yu and Zhou Tai bowed together to respond to Sun Quan.

"Lord, you must not let all the Chaisang army out. If Liu Bei knew about this situation and crossed the river and attacked, the major events would be inconsistent!" Zhang Zhao thought Sun Quan's move was quite inappropriate, so he hurriedly spoke out and advised him.

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang! Not to mention whether the old thief Liu Bei can break through the patrol of our Jiangdong Navy Army and cross the Yangtze River. Even if he really attacked across the river, my Sun Family Lang would not be the one who can easily deceive. Although there are no regular military horses in the city, who do not have dozens or even hundreds of civil and military generals and officials in the family, will they organize these servants and guards? Isn't it just a military horse?" Sun Quan raised his eyebrows, and his face showed an unprecedented look of determination.

"Lord..." Looking at Sun Quan with such a demeanor, for a moment, Zhou Yu felt as if he had seen Sun Ce resurrected from the dead and standing in front of him.

"Brother Gong Jin, the fate of my Sun family and the fate of the six counties in Jiangdong are all entrusted to you!" Sun Quan took a few steps forward, reached out and held Zhou Yu's arms tightly, and said with great sincerity.

"Lord... don't worry! Zhou Yu will definitely live up to his high expectations. Even if he abandons his life, he will repel the Jingzhou army and protect the safety of the winner and the people of Jiangdong!" Zhou Yu's eyes showed an extremely complex light, and he bowed to Sun Quan and said.

"Lord, Su has another plan to solve the current crisis, which may help us solve the difficulties of our army!" Lu Su suddenly spoke out.

"Oh~~?" Sun Quan asked in surprise and joy: "Zijing, what are your tricks? Come quickly and let me discuss them together!"

"Then Su will be ugly!" Lu Su smiled faintly and said calmly: "Lord, do you still remember the month ago... Xuchang Cao Mengde sent an envoy to Chaisang to join him in an attempt to form an alliance with the lord!"

"Of course I remember! At that time, Mr. Zhang and Zijing both advised me to agree to this covenant, and I also sent an envoy to reply to Cao Cao. Unfortunately, the envoy has not returned yet...ah... Zijing means..." Sun Quan said, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had understood Lu Su's meaning.

"...It seems that the lord had already thought that he would send envoys to go through Moling and detour to Xuchang to invite Cao Cao to send troops to Jingzhou or Shouchun. If he was threatened by Cao Cao's army, Liu Biao and Liu Bei would definitely return to guard against Cao's army. Even if they only withdraw some of the troops and horses, they could relieve the pressure on our army a little!" Lu Su continued Sun Quan's words.

"Haha... this method is useless!" Sun Yi sneered and said, "Not to mention that it took a lot of time to go to Xuchang. If there is no ten days or half a month, I am afraid that I will not be able to arrive in Xuchang. Even if Cao Cao sends troops, the war will probably be over. In addition, can Zijing guarantee that Cao Cao will definitely send troops?"

After being refuted by Sun Yi, Lu Su's expression did not change, and he still said calmly: "Liu Biao, Liu Bei is not only a great enemy in Jiangdong, but also a great trouble for Cao Cao. Cao Cao must also want to eliminate these two sides. Cao Cao sent envoys in the previous period to use the power of his lord to restrain the two Lius. Therefore, to a certain extent, the lord and Cao Cao have become in a state of disgrace. Once our Jiangdong is in trouble, Cao Cao will face the threat of heavy troops from the two Lius. Therefore, with Su's prediction, if the envoys are sent to Xuchang, Cao Cao may send troops very much! Of course, Cao Cao's troops may only be

It was to make some gestures, but even so, it was enough to restrain the strength of the two Lius!" Seeing Sun Quan nodding in agreement, Lu Su continued: "As for the long time between Xuchang mentioned by Lord Shubi, it is actually not a problem. The battle between our army and the two Lius cannot be concluded in ten days and half a month. In Su's opinion, this battle should be a long-lasting battle. Especially the Jingzhou army, whose strength is far above our army. Unless the commander makes a major mistake, even with the wisdom of Zhou and the courage of the generals, it will be difficult to repel him within one or two months."

"It takes one or two months?" Sun Quan turned to Zhou Yu in surprise.

Seeing Sun Quan's inquiring eyes betting on him, Zhou Yu nodded with a serious expression, expressing his agreement with Lu Su's words.

"...So, if you can arrive in Xuchang within ten days and half a month and urge Cao Cao to send troops as soon as possible, it will be of some benefit to alleviating the crisis of our army!" Lu Su said affirmatively at last.

"Now Zijing thought that Cao Cao might use troops to which side of the two Liu Zhong? Or at the same time?" Zhang Zhao gently stroked his long beard under his chin and asked in a deep voice.

"Cao Cao is a treacherous hero in the world. He is good at calculating and sending troops to provoke both sides at the same time is not what he would do. In Su's opinion, he will only use troops to one of them! Among the two Lius, Liu Bei's military strength is slightly weak, and Cao Cao's possible use of troops to him is more likely!" Lu Su analyzed calmly.

"Uncle, Mr. Zhang, Mr. Jin, what do you think Zijing's plan?" Sun Quan seemed to have some intention, but he was unable to make up his mind, so he asked Sun Jing, Zhang Zhao and Zhou Yu.

"Lord, Yu thought Zijing's strategy was good, so he should go quickly!" Zhou Yu said with joy on his face.

Sun Jing and Zhang Zhao also nodded one after another to express their agreement.

"Okay! Since that's the case, I will follow Zijing's advice and send an envoy to Xuchang!" Sun Quan said decisively.

On June 24, the sixth year of Jian'an, everything in Lujiang City had recovered as if it was still under the Sun family ten days ago. After the initial confusion, the people in the city saw that the newly occupied Lujiang army was very strict and did not invade them. Later, someone familiar with the matter revealed that this army was actually under the command of Liu Huangshu, who was known to the world for "benevolence and loving the people", so they gradually calmed down. Although there were still many people who were concerned about the Sun family, they did not dare to make any changes due to the shock of the other party's kindness and power.

Then, under the careful organization of the Yuzhou pastor Bo Chen Zhen, who had just arrived in Lujiang to take charge of government affairs, his official position was still the Yuzhou pastor, so he could only embarrass himself in the position of the Yuzhou pastor. And Sun Qian and Chen Zhen were still the Yuzhou pastor, and the position of the Yuzhou pastor was also Bo.), a considerable part of the new grain that the people of Lujiang had been "stolen" was returned to them, and the rest of the grain requisitioned by the army was also converted at market prices. Over the years, the people of Lujiang who had changed their belongings had never seen such "Qingtian parents" who treated them well, so they were all "gratitude".

After the people's intentions were settled, Chen Zhen immediately organized the people to sow late rice immediately after the first season of rice harvesting was completed. For a time, the people in Lujiang became busy one after another.

Lujiang City Shougong Office Conference Hall

"Everyone, Shouchun just received information - the rebellion of Wujun Shengxian was ten days ago, and was personally exterminated by Zhou Yu, the commander of the Jiangdong Army. After quickly quelling the rebellion, Zhou Yu almost did not stay. After leaving a army to station in Wujun, he immediately led the army back. Based on time, it is possible that it appears in Chaisang or Lujiang. In the current situation of the enemy is unknown, all the troops need to be more vigilant." I inspected the generals in the hall with my eyes and said in a deep voice.

"Xingba, Jinfan Camp recently inspected the river, have you ever noticed something abnormal?" I fixed my eyes on Gan Ning and asked.

"Exception?...By the way!" Gan Ning thought about it carefully and seemed to have thought of something. "In the past few days, the Jiangdong Navy's patrol has become quite frequent on the river surface from Niuzhu to Hukou. There have been several times when we almost encountered the patrol and surveillance boats of our army!"

"In addition, have you ever discovered that there are any large-scale mobilizations of the Jiangdong Navy in this area?" I asked with some concern.

"The large-scale mobilization was not discovered. General, the main force of the Jiangdong Army's naval army should go to Jiangxia to fight the Jingzhou naval army. It is unlikely that it will appear in this area!" Gan Ning asked with a little confusion.

"Well! I was originally a little worried that Sun Quan would not be willing to let Lujiang fall and let us go, and would send troops to seize Lujiang again. If he had been willing to do so, there would inevitably be a large-scale naval army mobilization. But according to the current situation, Sun Quan temporarily 'let us go', hahaha..." A smile appeared on the corner of my mouth and said.

"Then Sun Quan's son can tell the priority and know that Liu Biao is his biggest concern at this time. His main force, Ma, must have gone to fight against the Jingzhou army!" Wei Yan grinned, "General, when will we kill Jiangdong?"

"Now, killing the Yangtze River can only lead to self-destruction! The general has already said that the time to cross the river is not yet ripe!" Li Tong retorted Wei Yan coldly.

"Hehe... I'm just asking!" Wei Yan was not angry, but just laughed twice.

"Uncle San... Although we can't cross the river directly, it's not good to just sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight like this, right?" Guan Ping frowned and thought for a moment, and said hesitantly.

"Oh~?!" I looked at Guan Ping with a smile and asked, "Dingguo, what do you think?"

With my verbal encouragement, Guan calmed down and said loudly: "The direct attack cannot be done, you can attack surprise. It is not appropriate to destroy the enemy, but it can harass it. I thought that Brother Xingba's Jinfan Camp could harass the Jiangdong navy from time to time, without having to confront him head-on, just attack and harass him from the side and back. If you can kill one person, you will be a person, and if you can sink one person, you can even find an opportunity to go ashore and disturb him after overturning, and then quickly evacuate. This can not only consume the Jiangdong army's strength, but also echo the Jingzhou army!"
