Chapter 382: Waiting for Sima Yi to take the bait

Although he was happy in his heart, Liu Feng knew that this time was different from the past, and the danger was still there.

For example, Deng Ai failed to resist Xu Huang in Gucheng. Or Jiangdong suddenly sent troops to attack Jiujiang, or Huang Zhong could not conquer Guiyang and Lingling counties on time.

It's all very dangerous. This time, it's not a one-sided enemy.

But danger also means opportunity. If this battle is achieved, it will successfully eliminate Lingling, Guiyang, Wuling, and even Wuxi.

The three counties in Jingnan, which originally took a year and a half to conquer, can get it in just three or four months.

If I can get the hand, I have to thank Sima Yi. It would be a lot of trouble for him.

Thinking of this, Liu Feng smiled slightly, calmed down and told Xu Zheng, Zhang Dao, and Huo Jun present what he thought.

"Lord, this is too risky. What should I do if 50,000 barbarian soldiers break through Changsha? The lord has three counties and is powerful. There is no need to fight against the barbarian soldiers for the gains and losses of one city and one place." Xu Zheng was anxious and persuaded him hard when he heard this.

Still the same, avoid the edge for the time being.

Liu Feng did not say anything angry about Xu Zheng's retreat, because in the eyes of many people, avoiding the edge for a while is conducive to development. It does not mean that Xu Zheng is timid or unreliable.

"I have made up my mind about this matter. Prefect Xu doesn't need to say anything more." Liu Feng shook his head and looked at Xu Zhengdao very clearly.

Seeing Liu Feng's expression and firm gaze, Xu Zheng also knew that it would be useless to say more. Liu Feng had already decided, and the only thing in front of him was to cooperate as much as possible.

"Since that's the case, please allow me to go down and arrange the people first and prepare to summon the people to defend the city." Xu Zheng raised his fist and said in a deep voice.

Liu Feng nodded happily, and he was indeed right. Although he disagrees, Xu Zheng is also the kind of person who will cooperate with him fully when the situation is decided.

"Prepare as many as possible for the city guarding equipment." Liu Feng nodded.

"No." Xu Zheng responded quickly, then stood up in a hurry and walked out.

After Xu Zheng left, only Liu Feng, Zhang Dao, and Huo Jun were left in the study.

Liu Feng turned his attention to Huo Jun, who was the key figure in defeating the barbarian soldiers. After Liu Feng spoke out his plan, this key figure kept thinking in his eyes. He should be calculating what he should be calculating.

"How about it, Zhong Miao. The barbarians have 50,000 troops, you only have 5,000 troops, the people of a city, and the tall and honest city. Can you defend it?" Liu Feng asked with a smile.

As soon as Liu Feng finished his words, Huo Jun put away the light in his eyes.

He was indeed calculating just now, whether it was OK. Liu Feng had the kindness of knowing him, and when he first came to Jiangxia, he became a Sima of another department and guarded the other side.

Therefore, over the years, Huo Jun has been very dedicated in everything he does. The army and city walls have been well trained, especially the city walls, because the east has always had a strong threat from Taishi Ci.

Therefore, Huo Jun repaired the city wall to be extremely tall and strong. Not to mention anything else, just relying on this tall city wall, Huo Jun had the confidence to resist the attack of the barbarians.

But how long it took, it was impossible to calculate.

This has a lot to do with momentum, situation, and the support of the people.

At present, our side has a momentum, and Liu Feng, the lord of the three counties, is here. The support of the people is even more powerful.

During the natural disaster, Liu Feng saved countless people in Changsha. When the plague broke out, he also treated him in time. He also calmed the food price and killed the powerful.

All these measures have made the people of Changsha have extraordinary love for Liu Feng.

Huo Jun has read many biographies and knows that if some people are officials in one place and benefit the local area, countless people will follow him when they leave office.

Huo Jun believed that if Liu Feng had no choice but to give up Changsha, there would definitely be countless Changsha people willing to follow him to live in Jiangxia.

Therefore, momentum and support from the people are not a problem, but the situation is next. However, the situation on the battlefield is always changing. Who can see it clearly?

Huo Jun laughed at himself. He only needed to answer his lord's question and could he stop 50,000 barbarian soldiers.

"If only 50,000 barbarians, the last general will be able to defend for at least five months by relying on the benefits of the city." Huo Jun thought for a moment and spoke.

Huo Jun knew that modesty was the most unwilling thing on the battlefield. If you were modest, Liu Feng would make a mistake in his judgment, it might lead to a big mistake.

Therefore, these five months are the shortest date for Huo Jun to defend the city after calculation. I don’t know how long it can be held up.

Five months? Liu Feng smiled with satisfaction. He knew that Huo Jun was a very cautious person. People who were not cautious generally would not become a famous general who was famous for defending the city.

Therefore, there will be no mistakes in five months.

As long as Huang Zhong can conquer Guiyang and Lingling counties within these five months, he can go north to join Pang Tong and defeat the army of the three counties together.

Liu Feng was sure of winning this battle.

"That's good." Liu Feng nodded and then said, "Go down and prepare. If you have any difficulties, you can tell Xu Zheng directly. The entire city will cooperate with you in defense next."

"No." Huo Jun responded calmly, got up and left the study.

"Lord." After Huo Jun left, Liu Feng fell into deep thought and thought about whether there was anything to add to this battle. Until Liu Feng woke up in one sentence.

"What's the matter?" Liu Feng then remembered that Zhang Dao was still in the study, looked up and said.

"According to the lord's plan, Jiangdong must be on guard. Should we suppress the food and not exchange it with Jiangdong for the time being, so that Jiangdong will be afraid of weapons?" Zhang Dao raised his fist.

At present, Jiangdong and Jiangxia exchanged Shanyue prisoners and food for each other. The generals of Jiangdong are still going deep into the Senshan Mountain to wipe out Shanyue and replenish Liu Feng's appetite. Six hundred thousand Shanyue people. However, Zhou Yu stayed and firmly stationed in Yuzhang to confront Jiujiang.

Liu Feng thought about Zhang Dao's method of using food to curb Jiangdong. He still shook his head and said, "No. If he curbs the food, it means we are afraid of Jiangdong, that is, we are empty. With Zhou Yu's temperament, he may immediately start a military force. The gain is not worth the loss."

"If you can't control the food, you should do it as usual." Liu Feng added.

Zhang Dao thought about Liu Feng's words and was shocked and sweated. If it was true as Liu Feng said, Zhou Yu would immediately raise an army, and then he would become a sinner.

"I am not very careful, so I ask the lord to punish me." Zhang Dao raised his head and said guiltily.

"Why nothing happens, Wuwei's words remind me of something." Liu Feng smiled slightly and waved his hand.

With Zhang Dao's ability, it is already good to grow to the point where he can serve as a county magistrate. Liu Feng did not expect him to become a qualified adviser.

"Jiangdong really has to be on guard. When drafting documents and asking Huang Zhong to send troops, choose night, food, etc., and try to keep a low profile. Don't let Jiangdong spies inquiry into the wind." As he said that, Liu Feng paused and said, "Also, immediately let Deng Ai lead 3,000 people to Gucheng to defend Xu Huang. Pang Tong and 10,000 troops to advance to Hanshou and confront the troops of the three counties."

Drafting the documents should have been the chief clerk Liu Ba, but the matter was urgent, so Liu Ba did not follow him here, so Liu Feng had to hand it over to Zhang Dao.

Seeing that Liu Feng was not guilty, Zhang Dao felt relieved and felt a little guilty. He warned himself not to speak in areas that he was not good at in the future.

"No." Zhang Dao responded to Liu Feng's order and left quickly.

After Zhang Dao left, Liu Feng fell into deep thought.

The layout of this battle has been completed. But the others are all empty. Liu Feng believes that Sima Yi had already understood it thoroughly before sending troops.

The only killer move is Huo Jun. In other words, he will definitely win.

But Liu Feng still thought carefully to see if there was anything to add. In the end, he didn't find anything to add.

Unfortunately, there is no counselor around me now, Pang Tong, Jiang Wan, Xu Shu, and Liu Ba, either as county magistrates or chief clerks. They are either in Jiangxia or recruiting troops, and are not in Changsha.

Liu Feng was somewhat uncertain about these people.

However, on the other hand, it also aroused Liu Feng's bloodiness, just like when he first left Xinye to drift, he was jealous and rushed into Jiangxia.

At that time, there were no famous scholars around.

Let's fight. Let Sima Yi return in a miserable defeat, you can't just say it. Liu Feng clenched his fists, and the fierceness flashed in his eyes.

Evil was born to the courage. Remembering the moment when he killed Huang Zu, Liu Feng felt excited.

…………………

Wancheng. In the past, Wancheng was a very huge city, not only with its exterior walls, but also with the people in the city, which was very huge and prosperous.

But after Liu Feng's fire.

There was a piece of coke in Wancheng, without people. Even the outer city walls were damaged a lot.

Since Xu Huang led his elite troops to Wancheng, he first repaired the city walls and then built houses. After several months, people moved to Wancheng from all over the Central Plains.

It has only recovered a little bit of vitality today. However, compared with the heyday of Wancheng, this is a very different place.

As the new guard of Wancheng, Xu Huang has no good feelings for Liu Feng.

Xu Huang's target was to raise an army to attack Jiangxia's six cities in the north of the Yangtze River to avenge the revenge of Wancheng.

Xu Huang is burly and rough in appearance. Because of his personality, he is not a very talkative person or a kind person. However, his prestige is very high.

Whether in his own army or within the entire force group of Cao ***.

The entire Cao*** power has many and widespread generals. It is not unreasonable that Xu Huang can be ranked among the top generals and is called the Five Sons together with Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Yu Jin, Le Jin and others.

When Sima Yi's letter came, Xu Huang felt that this battle was just in line with his destiny and his nature.

He was given the opportunity to attack the six cities in Jiangbei to avenge his hatred.

In the general's mansion, in the study, Xu Huang held Sima Yi's letter in his hand and suddenly stood up and said, "Rise up 12,000 troops and attack Gucheng with all his strength."

The sound is strong and the momentum is amazing.
