It is precisely because of the importance of the Three Thousand Battalion to Zhu Yuanzhang that Yue Fei tried to lure this army out several times in the previous battles.
If Zhu Yuanzhang's three thousand battalions could be defeated in one fell swoop, it wouldn't be a problem even if it cost the same price of ten thousand cavalry or even a higher price.
If Zhu Yuanzhang did not have the Three Thousand Battalion, the difficulty of advancing into Yangzhou one day would plummet a lot. Without this three thousand battalion, Zhu Yuanzhang lost his most mobile force, and many strategies and tactics also lost the means and possibilities for implementation.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed too cautious and held his trump card tightly in his hands. Yue Fei failed to catch the fish he wanted after several attempts.
In this battle, this unit that had been hidden was finally sent out, which is enough to show that Zhu Yuanzhang attached great importance to this battle.
Both the Zhu Er Liu coalition and Xiang Yu had a tacit agreement to send only half of their troops. There are more than a dozen and nearly 200,000 Jin troops, either located in Xiangyang or on the edge of Xiangyang and Nanjun. At this time, it is impossible for both sides to send all their troops to fight in a desperate battle.
Even though it was Xiang Yu, he came to Jingbei to seek revenge, not to die. If he sends all his troops in a desperate move, and if the Jin army suddenly attacks at this time, there is a risk that both of them will be defeated in one fell swoop!
Even though Xiang Yu has some weaknesses in character compared to other princes, he is not unable to distinguish the situation on the battlefield.
Not only the troops, but also the generals, Zhu Yuanzhang was well prepared. The newly emerged fierce general Ao Mo'ang in the army did not return to Jingnan with Fu Youde, but was temporarily left here by Zhu Yuanzhang.
The god-level warrior Ao Moang was left behind just to cooperate with Lu Erlai to fight against Xiang Yu.
This was also Zhu Yuanzhang's helpless move. Liu Xiu immediately saw Zhu Yuanzhang's plan and directly transferred Deng Xia, a powerful general, to Nanjun.
However, Zhuge Kunlong, who was originally Liu Yu's confidant general, was unexpectedly announced by Liu Xiu that Zhuge Kunlong would inherit the position of Ren Shang, the original personal guard general, and Zhuge Kunlong would serve as one of Liu Xiuxin's personal guard generals.
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang's chance to take advantage of these powerful generals in Jingbei is basically gone.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't need to guess. Zhuge Kunlong had the status of a personal guard general. If Zhu Yuanzhang was seconded by then, there would definitely be some wrangling in the process.
This time, Liu Xiu was hurt so badly by Xiang Yu. When it was time to take action, Liu Xiu would naturally strike hard. However, there is no contradiction between Liu Xiu eventually taking action and not allowing Zhu Yuanzhang to use his power.
Judging from the current situation, Liu Xiu has seen through Zhu Yuanzhang's intention to take advantage of this opportunity to attack Xiang Yu. It is impossible for his people to be in the front anymore, and will only take action when the opportunity comes. And how could it be possible to deal with a prince like Xiang Yu without sacrifice?
Both Liu Xiu and Zhu Yuanzhang want to deal with Xiang Yu, but in the process, which of them can take advantage of the other depends on who is more skilled and patient!
Speaking of Zhuge Kunlong, Liu Xiu both admired and had a headache for this man. Zhuge Kunlong had already shown his loyalty, but unfortunately, this loyalty was not directed at him, Liu Xiu, but was loyal to him. Liu Yu's second brother.
Since he is loyal to his opponent, this loyalty is a huge obstacle to himself. If it weren't for the fact that Jingbei couldn't do without Zhuge Kunlong, a fierce general under the gaze of a pack of wolves, Liu Xiu might really not be able to help but attack him.
In the past few days, Zhang Liang's plan has begun to be implemented, and he has begun to contact them in an orderly manner according to the plan based on the previously selected candidates. Of course, in this process, the help of Floating House and others is naturally indispensable.
However, when the plan came to Zhuge Kunlong, a big or small problem arose. How should I put it, Zhuge Kunlong has such a strong personality that he may not have thought about his future at all. He actually sent the person who was sent by Floating Water Fang to contact him directly to Liu Xiu.
Fortunately, the people sent to the floating water house in the early stage were all small people, and they had no contact with other people. They knew basically nothing about the floating water house, and those confidential matters had nothing to do with these people. .
Therefore, even if it is carried over, it will not cause any damage to the floating house.
But this incident also made Yue Fei, Zhang Liang and others completely give up their unnecessary thoughts on Zhuge Kunlong. This Zhuge Kunlong may really be loyal to Liu Yu to the end.
Yue Fei also knew that Zhuge Kunlong was completely on the Jin army's kill list. Even if he is captured alive in the future, he will not be given a chance to surrender. The only way is to kill him. I am afraid there will be no other room for negotiation.
It seems that some other people did not do so well. Although they expressed that they would not betray the master, they also did not sell the people in the floating house to Liu Xiu.
After this incident, the other generals in Jingbei finally began to feel less wary of Zhuge Kunlong. After all, the entire Zhuge family had fallen to the Jin army, and even occupied an important position in the world of Xiangyang's fall. Previously, it was understandable that these generals were wary of Zhuge Kunlong.
Regarding this matter, Liu Xiu naturally admired Zhuge Kunlong's loyalty. But the only pity is that the target of this loyalty is his brother Liu Yu.
In fact, Liu Xiu was envious and even jealous deep down in his heart that his brother Liu Yu could obtain the loyal loyalty of such a fierce general.
The relationship between Liu Xiu and Liu Yu is that although they are brothers, they are also mortal enemies. There is only one position for the Lord of Jingbei. Even now, Liu Xiu has taken the position, but Liu Yu still has not lessened his interest in this position.
If given the chance, neither brother would mind sending the other on his way!
However, the relationship between the two brothers is complicated, and it is not limited to a relationship of mortal enemies.
In such a chaotic world today, which force around Jingbei is easy to deal with! Over the years, how many crises has Jingbei faced?
The reason why Jingbei can survive under the prying eyes of the hungry wolves around them is because of the mutual support between the two brothers Liu Xiu and Liu Yu.
Therefore, the two brothers are reliable comrades for each other. Although in previous crises, while resisting foreign enemies, the two of them never relaxed their guard against each other. But it has to be said that the two brothers did not disappoint each other.
However, now, under the huge crisis, even the biggest crisis in Jingbei for so many years, it is also a crisis that they may not be able to overcome. The two brothers have once again started the cooperation mode.
The two brothers Liu Xiu and Liu Yu were indeed reliable at such a critical time, and would not think of cheating each other at such a time. After all, usually in this situation, even if you can trick the opponent, you will be tricked in the end!
