Zhuge Liang said solemnly: "Liu Yuzhou is a member of the imperial family, spreading loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness all over the world. Moreover, my lord has been ordered by the emperor's blood to eradicate evil spirits. He should have gathered all the heroes to fight against the national traitors, how can he succumb to it for his own selfish interests?"
Sun Quan stood up angrily, thinking that Liu Xuande was unwilling to become a thief, should I?
There was a huge disparity in military strength. Not to mention the fear of Jiangdong officials, Sun Quan was not determined to fight decisively.
Lu Su knew that Zhuge Liang was using the method of provoking generals, so he immediately picked up the topic and said: "Since Liu Yuzhou is determined to pursue thieves, Mr. Kong Ming must have a strategy to deal with it? It is said that soldiers are valuable and quick, but Cao Cao won Xiangyang and Jiangling but did not move his troops. It is really strange. "
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Zijing is a wise man, can't you understand Cao Mengde's tricks?"
"Please clear up my doubts, sir." Lu Su asked shamelessly with his hands raised, what's the use of face if we can allied to fight against Cao Cao?
"Cao Cao's troops are all northern infantry and cavalry. Even if there are millions of people, they cannot easily cross the Yangtze River. His navy only has 20,000 people in Xiangyang. It is difficult to capture Jiangxia with this small force. How can it be compared with Jiangdong?" start a war with the elite navy? If we fight with them at this time, all the Northern Army will be nothing but fish and shrimps." At this time, kEnsh Zhang Si
"Then why Cao Cao stood still in Jiangling..." Lu Su seemed to understand something.
Zhou Yu immediately snorted coldly: "The thief Cao is stalling for time, waiting for his warships to be ready and his navy to be formed..."
Zhuge Liang gave a thumbs up, "What the Governor said is absolutely true."
Sun Quan was very excited when he heard this, and then he said happily: "Then we can't give Cao Cao time to prepare. We should discuss the battle strategy as soon as possible..."
"If you want to defeat Cao Cao, you must send troops as soon as possible. It will be decided in one battle." Zhuge Liang added.
It was getting dark outside, and the waiter lit the lamps in the palace. Zhou Yu asked someone to get a map of Jingzhou, planning to discuss how to march overnight.
Lan Tian and Zhuge Liang looked at each other and said to themselves that you are still using maps, but we are already in a sandbox.
"Mr. Kong Ming, how many troops and horses does Liu Yuzhou have?" Sun Quan suddenly asked.
"Ten thousand sailors and three thousand cavalry." Zhuge Liang replied.
After hearing this, Sun Quan shook his head and said: "Something is missing..."
"The 10,000 navy troops are borrowed from my lord Liu Jingzhou." Lan Tian said quickly.
"Yes, I borrowed it..." Zhuge Liang nodded in agreement.
Lan Tian did not have any reputation in Jiangdong. He sat aside and said nothing. Sun Quan, Lu Su and others did not attach much importance to him, as if he was Zhuge Liang's follower.
At this time, he suddenly swore ownership of the navy. Zhou Yu wondered if Liu Qi had any ideas, so he asked: "I wonder how many troops Liu Jingzhou has left besides these 10,000 navy?"
Lan Tian raised his head and pretended to think, and then calculated to himself, "General Liu Pan of Changsha has ten thousand, Lingling three thousand, Guiyang three thousand..."
They couldn't even remember how many troops they had, and Sun Quan and Lu Su all had a contemptuous view of him.
"There should be another 20,000." Lantian said loudly after calculation.
Sun Quan stroked his purple beard and nodded, "Liu Jingzhou still has a lot of troops. Gong Jin, you can now discuss how to deploy the battle."
"My lord, it's getting late now. Kong Ming and Ziyu have come all the way. It's time to hold a banquet to wash away the dust. It's not too late to discuss the battle strategy tomorrow." Zhou Yu suggested.
"Haha, I'm rude, Zijing, send an order to hold a banquet in honor of these two gentlemen." Sun Quan waved his hand.
"Wei." Lu Su responded with his hands raised.
Lan Tian rarely spoke either when meeting Sun Quan or at the reception banquet. Whenever he spoke, he had the tone of a common man, as if he wanted to fight for Liu Qi's interests.
After the banquet, Sun Quan told everyone to rest early and discuss the battle tomorrow morning.
After the show, Sun Quan left Zhou Yu and Lu Su behind and said coldly: "Liu Qi secretly took Jingnan and accumulated 20,000 troops. Looking at Lan Tian's face, he seems to want a piece of the pie."
Lu Su added: "Liu Qi may not be able to get back the 10,000 navy troops lent to Liu Bei. In the future battle on the Yangtze River, Liu Qi's troops will not be able to help much."
"Zijing is right. Currently, Liu Pan's 10,000 soldiers in Changsha have some fighting strength. The rest should be surrendered by Jin Xuan, Han Xuan and other rabble. However, after forming an alliance with Liu Qi, Demou's Jianchang garrison can participate in the war. " Zhou Yu added.
Sun Quan worriedly said: "I don't know how big this guy's appetite is. If he wants us to help him conquer Jingzhou, there is no need to form an alliance with Liu Qi. Who is this Lantian? Why have I never heard of him before?"
Lu Su explained: "It is said that he was a confidant brought by Liu Qi from Xiangyang. I think this person can write articles and is very good at cooking. His talents are far from being comparable to Kong Ming."
"That's right. If you are really talented, how could you go to Liu Qi? You need to find someone to explore his bottom line." Sun Quan said.
Zhou Yu didn't bother to talk to Lan Tian too much. When Lu Su saw this, he said: "Now that we have had enough wine and food, the two of them must not have gone to bed early. I will invite him to take a walk in the city."
Seeing Lu Su's open-minded character, Zhou Yu also said: "Then I will go to Kong Ming to talk about how to defeat Cao."
Zhuge Liang and Lan Tian were placed in Chaisang Inn, and Zhao Yun and Chen Dao were like two door gods guarding in front of the house.
Seeing that there was still candlelight in Lantian's room, Lu Su asked Zhao Yun: "General Zilong, are Mr. Ziyu sleeping?"
Before Zhao Yun could answer, Lan Tian opened the door and came out, "Mr. Zijing, are you looking for me?"
"Shi Cai was not polite enough, Su Te came to apologize." Lu Su said with cupped hands.
Lan Tian: "Zijing is too polite, please come in quickly."
Lu Su shook his head and said, "I want to go for a walk in the city to eat. I wonder if Ziyu would like to go with me?"
There are no street lights in this era, so I go for a walk in the city in the dark. Lan Tianxin says you are really in a good mood.
Chaisang is an important military town in the northwest of Yangzhou. Zhou Yu implemented militarized management here. Although there are no street lights in the city, there are many soldiers patrolling back and forth with torches, so the streets are not so deserted.
"How long have you been following Liu Jingzhou, sir?" Lu Su asked, taking the lead in provoking the topic on the road.
"It's been a long time..." Lan Tian replied vaguely.
When Lu Su saw that this guy was not on his way, he asked again: "Liu Jingzhou has the style of being his father. Now that he has returned to the four counties in Jingnan, he is in high spirits. I wonder what his ambition is?"
Lantian knew that Lu Su's question about ambition was false and that the division of interests after the war was true, so he said: "My ministers, because Liu Cong rashly surrendered to the enemy, many of his family members were stranded in Jiangbei. Even if they are unable to take back Xiangyang now, they must at least take back Xiangyang." Only go to Gangneung."
Want Jiangling? My appetite is quite big.
Lu Su then thought about it. Jiangling and Wuling County were across the river, so it was reasonable for Liu Qi to take back his hometown.
"Cao's army is stationed in Jiangling. Even if the Yangtze River Water Battle is won, it will not be easy to capture this important town in the north of the Yangtze River..." What Lu Su meant in his words was that Liu Qi was not capable of capturing Jiangling.
Lan Tian pretended to be surprised, "The so-called defeat is like a mountain falling. If we are going to defeat Cao Cao on the Yangtze River, wouldn't it be easy to capture Jiangling? My Lord has twenty or thirty thousand soldiers."
Lu Su was speechless. Why should he emphasize the importance of 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers? Among them, the most elite naval force was taken away by Guan Yu, and the remaining 20,000 were left to attack Jiangling. Isn't this just nonsense?
"Twenty or thirty thousand soldiers are difficult..." Lu Su reminded.
"It doesn't matter. I won't blame you if I can't defeat you." Lan Tian was full of confidence.
