Style: Historical Author: One thought reaches the skyWords: 2226Update Time: 24/01/12 02:05:55
The capture of Hefei, not to mention its strategic significance, will affect the Jiangdong Army's future Northern Expedition. Its symbolic significance alone has caused an uproar in Jiangdong.

Jiangdong is a warrior, and Sun Quan's years of hard work have turned the people of Jiangdong into militants. Although their strength is the best in the world, their confidence has reached a higher level, and they are already crushing the world.

Let me ask you, I'm a strong man, and I haven't come to bully you, but I'm just lying here to take a nap, and you secretly come to poke me with a stick as soon as I'm a child? What is this? If the tiger doesn't show off its power, do you really think I'm a sick cat? !

So the people of Jiangdong were angry, and the people wanted Hefei not only to be taken back, but to be taken back immediately! At this time, the incident in Yecheng in the north had not happened yet, and few people in the world knew that Sun Quan was not here, so Mrs. Wu had a headache.

Just say that Sun Quan is not here and wait until Sun Quan comes back to make a decision? What to do if Sun Quan is ruined? Moreover, not to mention that this may affect Sun Quan's plan, let's just say that if others see that Sun Quan is not around, you Jiangdong can't even handle this matter. Isn't this an opportunity for other interested people to take advantage of!

Therefore, there must be a response. This is not only in line with the people's sentiments, but also a deterrent to the enemy!

Then, a new problem came.

First, Jiangdong's army is currently recuperating and its combat power is limited. Cao's army cannot be defeated by just one person.

Second, although Zhou Yu happened to be in Jiangdong, Mrs. Wu did not dare to let Zhou Yu, who had become the governor, take charge of the troops in Jiangdong again, in case Zhou Yu became too powerful.

After much deliberation, Mrs. Wu finally came up with a two-pronged approach that could ensure victory with the highest probability!

????????????

Hefei,

"Sun Quan personally conquered?!"

At this moment, Cao Ying's guards in Hefei are Zhang Liao, Li Dian and Le Jin. Although they are all famous generals in the world, I still felt a little nervous when I heard that Sun Quan was about to conquer Hefei personally.

"Didn't my lord say that Sun Quan is not in Jiangdong?"

"Did you rush back after getting the news?"

"No, something is wrong." Zhang Liao suddenly said, "We attacked Hefei unexpectedly and did not bring many soldiers. Even if Sun Quan suddenly came back and attacked Hefei, why would he have to fight in person?"

"Could it be that Sun Quan wanted to take the opportunity to attack Xuchang again after capturing Hefei?" Li Dian guessed.

Zhang Liao shook his head,

"If Sun Quan really wants to offend Xuchang again, he will not show up at this time. Therefore, I am inclined to believe that Sun Quan actually did not come back at all. It is said that Sun Quan personally conquered, but in fact he is using power to suppress others and force us to retreat in spite of difficulties!"

"Haha, if you say this, it proves that the people of Jiangdong don't have much confidence that this battle can be fought!" Li Dian said with a smile.

"Sun Quan's use of troops is strange, we'd better be cautious. First send someone to explore the narrative to see which generals are here besides Sun Quan." Le Jin reminded.

Soon, the spies reported back. This time Sun Quan went to Hefei and brought with him Pan Zhang, Song Qian, Xu Sheng, Chen Wu, Ling Tong, Gan Ning, Lu Meng, Jiang Qin, He Qi, Gu Li, Dong Xi, Zhou Tai, and Lu Xun. Basically, they are all young talents who were summoned to Jiangdong because of Sun Shangxiang's martial arts competition to recruit a bride.

"Not to mention the distance, Zhou Yu, Huang Gai and others are not here?"

"It seems that the other side has moved the martial arts competition to the battlefield."

Yes, this is what Mrs. Wu finally came up with. After the incident in Hefei, it is really unreasonable to continue singing and dancing there and holding a grand competition to attract brides. Regardless of Sun Quan's prowess in martial arts, Sun Shangxiang also likes personal heroism, but Mrs. Wu is more like a soldier at heart. Compared to personal force, Mrs. Wu values ​​the ability to fight more. Just kidding, marry Sun Shangxiang and marry into the Sun family. If you don't become a handsome man in the future, how can you become a knight-errant?

Therefore, this time was completely a practical assessment, and with Sun Quan's personal expedition, there was certainly enough reason not to allow Zhou Yu to intervene. Including the worst possibility, Mrs. Wu has also considered it. If this battle is accidentally lost, then only a few unimportant generals will die, and the loser will not be the real Sun Quan. It will not be good for the people's hearts, morale, and... The overall development of Jiangdong will not have much impact.

In this battle, Mrs. Wu only had one bottom line, and that was to bring the general back safely, because the person pretending to be Sun Quan and going out to fight for Sun Quan was Sun Quan's younger brother, Sun Kuang, who had gone through a slight disguise.

Near Xiaopei,

On their way back to Jiangdong, Sun Quan and Zhen Mi, with the help of Cihang Jingzhai, did not use Xuzhou to go south. Instead, they bypassed the blockades of Yuan Shao's army and went south directly from Yecheng, borrowing the help of Cao Cao. land. Of course, appearing here now is also due to the boldness of Sun Quanyi.

"Conquer Hefei personally?" Sun Quan couldn't help being dumbfounded when he suddenly heard the news.

Zhen Mi laughed and said mockingly,

"You act recklessly and haven't returned for a long time. It seems that your whole person has been replaced."

Of course, Zhen Mi herself knew that this was just a joke. Who in Jiangdong could replace Sun Quan?

"Winning is your achievement. If you lose, someone else will take the blame. That's not how your results came about, right?" Zhen Mi said.

Sun Quan ignored Zhen Mi's words and quickly scanned the information with a frown.

"What nonsense! What are you doing with so many young generals? There is no clear understanding of the superiors and subordinates, and there is no distinction between commanders. Isn't it chaotic enough?" Sun Quan cursed secretly. He thought that with him as a "experienced person", Jiangdong would not suffer any big losses. Who can Come to think of it, some things are beyond his control!

Looking at Sun Quan's expression, Zhen Mi also realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Are you going to lose?"

Sun Quan's eyes flashed,

"Since you are pretending to be me, it means you are still concealing the truth about my departure. In other words, even those young generals must hide it! Ge Xuan's disguise technique has no appearance. It must be someone who is extremely familiar with me to imitate it well. Who could it be? Woolen cloth?"

"Do you know what's going on?" Zhen Mi asked Sun Quan.

"Either Diao Chan. Or Sun Kuang." Sun Quan speculated, "However, based on my understanding of my mother, I am afraid she will not easily hand over military power to outsiders."

Even Diao Chan is still an outsider in Mrs. Wu's eyes.

"Are we going to Hefei?" Zhen Mi asked.

Sun Quan shook his head,

"Cao Cao's army moved, but did not go to the north. Of course, this is also expected. At this time, it is best to let the Yuan family fight within themselves. I was worried that Cao Cao might take the opportunity to attack Xuzhou, so I deliberately went around to Xiaopei. Hefei It’s just a checkpoint on the way north from the Yangtze River. As long as Xuzhou remains, Hefei is dispensable.”

After that, Sun Quan wrote a letter and asked people to send him back to Jiangdong. If Hefei has not been captured by then, he will temporarily withdraw his troops. For the rest, he could only leave it to fate.

????????????

Jiangdong,

"Miss Sun, what do you mean?"

Liu Bei looked at Sun Shangxiang who was blocking him with his bodyguards.

"Don't you want to go back to Jingzhou? I'll let you go, but only if you take me with you." Sun Shangxiang said.

Liu Bei smiled bitterly,

"Miss Sun, if the general finds out, won't he chop me up alive?"

Sun Shangxiang's eyes widened and he threatened,

"If you don't agree, I will chop you alive now!"

Sun Quan's interference originally made Sun Shangxiang dissatisfied with her highly anticipated competition to recruit a bride. This time, Mrs. Wu went even further and directly changed the assessment method without authorization. Taking advantage of Sun Quan's absence this time, everyone's attention is no longer on her. This is Sun Shangxiang's last chance to escape!
