"Sun Ce?" Yan Xiang stroked his white beard and finally decided not to persuade him further.
Although his original intention was to temporarily cease the war for a period of time to recuperate and develop production, it was not impossible to attack Sun Ce.
Continuing to attack Nanyang was because it was difficult to conquer and it was just a waste of national power. Yan Xiang then insisted on opposing Yuan Shu to continue the attack.
But if it were to attack Sun Ce, it would not be impossible to send troops as long as something could be gained.
The situation on Sun Ce's side is not optimistic, and it can even be said that it has suffered to the extreme. Sun Ce's ship was almost on the verge of falling apart.
At the cost of a county's land in exchange for Zhang Dingbian's limited support, coupled with the abilities of Sun Wu and Zhou Yu, Cao Cao was indeed blocked.
Although he was only blocking and had no power to retreat the enemy, Sun Wu was not in a hurry. He knew very well that Cao Cao's logistical pressure was also very high. As time went by, Cao Cao himself would have to retreat obediently.
No matter how sharp Cao Cao's skills are, he can't always gain anything. Although Cao Cao got a batch of grain and grass support from Yuan Shao this time by touching the gold captain, Sun Wu didn't believe that he could still get the next batch, and the next batch.
Sun Wu had a good idea, but unfortunately, third-party forces also intervened.
Zhang Dingbian just cut off a county's territory from Sun Ce for nothing. Wouldn't Zhao Kuangyin be jealous when he saw this?
Therefore, Sun Ce, who was already in a lot of troubles, also aroused Zhao Kuangyin's covetousness at this time. However, forget it. With Sun Ce's current situation, he is like meat on the chopping board. If you don't kill it, it will be useless.
However, Zhao Kuangyin had just captured Xuzhou, and the next moment he had a real battle with Chi You, and he himself was relatively weak.
Moreover, after that, in order to prevent Chi You from seizing Qingzhou and becoming stronger, Chen Bing was deployed at the junction of Yan and Xu, and Zhu Yuanzhang in the south also had to be careful.
Therefore, Zhao Kuangyin did not have many spare troops in his hands. He could solve the problem in a "peaceful" way and get what he wanted. Zhao Kuangyin was not willing to use weapons rashly.
Therefore, under the advice of Yi Yin and Zhao Pu, not long ago, Zhao Kuangyin sent General Gao Huaide and Chen Bingpei to the border with Pengcheng, with the intention of telling Sun Ce to give the benefits as soon as possible, and Zhao Kuangyin, who had the Yellow Turban, could not be less. Otherwise, don't blame him, Zhao Kuangyin, for being rude.
Sun Ce has a strong character and would rather die than bow to Yuan Shu. Therefore, some troops must always be on guard against Xian Zhen. It would be difficult for the remaining troops to fight against Cao Cao. If Zhao Kuangyin wanted to attack him, Sun Ce would have no choice.
In this way, even if Sun Ce doesn't want to, given Sun Ce's current situation, he, Zhao Kuangyin, can abuse him at will.
At that time, if Sun Ce is really unwilling, Zhao Kuangyin will ask Gao Huaide to wait for an opportunity at the border. When Sun Ce is almost unable to survive in Cao Cao's hands, he will seize the opportunity to send troops to divide Cao Cao's victory.
Although there is no concrete result between Zhao Kuangyin and Sun Ce yet, it can be expected that the end of the Sun family is not far away due to the embarrassment on all sides. Of the three heroes of the late Han Dynasty, if nothing unexpected happens, Sun will probably be the first to leave.
"Your Majesty, I have recently received news that Sun Ce is close to running out of fuel, and I am afraid that there is not much time left. Send troops at this time, firstly, to relieve Your Majesty's hatred, and secondly, to attack the city and seize the territory without wasting any effort! "Li Shui said very calmly.
Although the talents under Sun Ce are outstanding, Sun Wu, Zhou Yu, and Luo Hongxin are among the best in the world. Lu Su, Wu Jie, Wu Lin, Wang Jian, Sun Chengzong, Zhou Fashang, and Wu Mingche can also be said to be heroes of the moment.
But no matter what, the building is about to collapse, and no human power can stop it. Sun Ce's power conditions were in dilapidated condition, with leaks everywhere. Sun Wu and Zhou Yu could fix one or two, but they couldn't fix them all.
Moreover, the most important thing is that Sun Ce's body will not be able to support it anymore. He was seriously injured in the first place, but he was forced to climb up from the collapse to boost the morale of the soldiers. No one is invincible. It is an amazing willpower that he can persevere until now.
When Sun Ce dies in the future, the Sun family's biggest crisis will come. In such a short period of time, two consecutive lords were changed, and there must be great turmoil within the Sun family.
No matter how outstanding the talent is, they must conform to the general trend, otherwise, they will be beaten to death.
"Okay, I am following my good deeds. Since both my dear friends agree to attack Sun Ce, let's attack Sun Ce first!" Yuan Shu changed into a comfortable posture and said enthusiastically.
"I have ordered the three generals Pang Juan, Wang Mang, and Pei Xingjian to temporarily withdraw their troops, and Xian Zhen and Jiang Xiaobai will serve as the generals and deputy generals to send troops to exterminate the Sun family's traitors!"
Yuan Shu's forces are engaged in constant battles and small battles here, and when the war situation comes, generals large and small will definitely have opportunities to stand out.
Now, among Yuan Shu's generals, Pang Juan and Xian Zhen still have the highest status, one in the east and one in the west, dominating the battlefield on both sides. But under these two people, there are all kinds of monsters and monsters.
Kuang Zhang and Pei Xingjian, who were already well-known among Yuan Shu, and newly emerged generals such as Wang Zhi (the prince became his father), Wei Si, Wang Chang, Lu Meng, etc., have all risen to fame in recent times.
Although these people are openly loyal generals to Shuba, secretly Kuang Zhang and Wang Zhi (the prince's father) are Jiang Xiaobai's generals, and Wei Si and Wang Chang are Wang Mang's confidants.
Although Weiss also had ambitions, there was no room for such ambitions to develop. Wang Mang and Jiang Xiaobai each have a large number of followers overtly and covertly, but as for Weis, at this stage, only one clan brother, Wei Cheng and Ershang Wei Shi, are willing to listen to him!
In this case, how can you make him have any thoughts of rebellion? Even if there is, it can only be temporarily buried in my heart.
Except for Kuang Zhang, Wang Zhi, Wei Si, and Wang Chang, Pei Xingjian and Lu Meng belonged to Lishui's lineage.
Of course, at this time, Lu Meng was just a young man who became famous for his bravery in battles. He was still far from the level of the future famous Soochow general.
Lu Meng, a native of Runan, joined the army with his brother-in-law Deng Dang. Because of his bravery and fearlessness in battle, Pei Xingjian paid attention to him.
Moreover, Pei Xingjian discovered that this boy Lu Meng could not only be a fierce general. This boy's learning ability was astonishing. He could be regarded as a piece of rough jade, but it had not been polished yet.
Out of cherishment and love for talents, Pei Xingjian took Lü Meng with him, and while fighting, he taught Lü Meng some military skills. Although these two people are called superiors and subordinates, they are actually in a master-disciple relationship.
