Seeing Sun Quan calm down, everyone in the hall breathed a sigh of relief.
Sun Quan's eyes fell on Gu Yong and asked: "The situation is critical now, does Yuan Tan have any plan to deal with it?"
Gu Yong sighed secretly in his heart, the Huai army had millions of people, and the number of troops was three times that of Soochow soldiers and horses. What good solution could he have?
He himself was not good at military strategy, and Sun Quan was now considered blind.
But he looked very calm on the surface.
"The old lord's news cannot be hidden for too long. For the current plan, the lord must first summon Lu Zijing, Mr. Zhang, and generals Lu Meng to discuss a sound strategy. He also needs to send a general to lead the troops north to capture the Huaihe River. The army is blocking Wuxi!"
"Besides! The fact that the Huai army came to Wuxi to set up an ambush without any trace must have something to do with the Qi army. I suspect that Xiao Daocheng has formed an alliance with the Huai army and allowed the Huai army to cross the Yangtze River and go south..."
Gu Yong analyzed the situation bit by bit.
Although he was not good at military strategy, he was not low in resourcefulness. He was also a ninth-level civil servant on par with Zhang Zhao among the Soochow forces at this time.
"The Huai army is so numerous that our army's response strategy should have been to deploy defenses along the river and win a decisive battle with the Huai army... But now that the Huai army has crossed the river... our army can no longer prevent the main force of the Huai army from entering the east of the Yangtze River. !”
Everyone in the hall turned pale when they heard Gu Yong's analysis.
There was even a biting chill in his heart.
Soochow's military strength was originally not as good as that of the Huai army. What they could rely on was the natural danger of the Yangtze River. They wanted to conduct a water battle with the Huai army north of Changshu, just like Chibi in the past, blocking the Huai army's troops in the north of the Yangtze River.
But no one would have thought that Xiao Daocheng would put the Huai army directly in Jiangdong. Let the other party cross the natural dangers of the Yangtze River effortlessly.
He even took advantage of Soochow's unpreparedness and laid an ambush first, resulting in the death of the old protagonist Sun Jian in battle.
Without natural protection, the troops and horses would be even worse than the opponent.
Calculated in this way, Soochow can be said to be in imminent danger and a disaster that will overwhelm the sky.
Sun Quan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said, "Can it be said that we can only watch the Huai army approaching the city?"
Yu Fan said calmly: "My Lord, I heard that the number of Huai Army that appeared in Wuxi did not exceed one hundred thousand. This proves that the main force of the Huai Army has not crossed the river yet, and they are just a vanguard of the Huai Army!"
"If this is the case, we still have a chance of winning!"
"As long as General Sun can come back in time, our army, with Changshu and Wuxi as its boundaries, may not be unable to fight the Huai army!"
When Sun Quan heard this, he took a deep breath.
Indeed, although Soochow is dangerous now, it is definitely not as dangerous as the battle of Chibi in the original world.
Now my eldest brother is still there, as are generals such as Lu Meng, Lu Su, Gan Ning, and Tai Shi Ci.
If we unite as one and fight against the enemy with one heart, we will definitely have a chance of victory.
"I understand... Immediately send someone to pass the news to Big Brother and ask him to come back and take charge of the overall situation!"
Sun Quan said with some difficulty.
There was a hint of bitterness in the voice. Only when the eldest brother comes back can he gather the hearts and minds of the people of Soochow and lead the soldiers and horses of Soochow to compete with powerful enemies.
What he lacks is the heroic and domineering spirit of his elder brother.
"Go summon Zhang Zhao and Zijing. We need to work together now!"
After hearing Sun Quan's words, Gu Yong and Yu Fan looked at each other and nodded slightly.
He was able to calm down in times of crisis, analyze the pros and cons and make accurate judgments. He was also able to suppress his ambitions and proactively cooperate with his elder brother Sun Ce... I have to say that Sun Quan's attitude was very appreciated by Gu Yong and Yu Fan.
Although such a lord is a bit lacking in military strategy.
But with them assisting the left, as long as he is prevented from leading troops in person in the future, Soochow will still be able to seize the land east of Jiangdong.
Everyone was getting ready to leave.
There was a sudden sound of shouting outside the room, and soon, a heroic girl who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old and wore a hunting suit broke into the hall regardless of the guards outside.
"Second brother... I heard someone outside spreading rumors that something happened to my father. Give me some help. I will break these people's legs and let them know the consequences of talking nonsense!"
She was still holding a riding crop in her hand, and she had obviously just returned from hunting outside.
This girl is full of heroic spirit and has excellent appearance. She has a slender waist and slender legs. Her temperament and appearance are better than ninety-nine percent of the girls in the world. She is only inferior to such peerless beauties as Xiao Qiao, Li Zu'e, and Dugu Jialuo.
She calls Sun Quan her second brother. It is obvious that she is the famous Sun Shangxiang in history.
At the time of Advent, Sun Shangxiang was still early to marry Liu Bei, and her relationship with Sun Quan was relatively strong.
So even though after arriving, he knew that his second brother would marry Liu Bei in the future, Sun Shangxiang was only angry for a moment and then put the matter behind him.
As a member of a noble family in troubled times, Sun Shangxiang had long known that sooner or later, he would be married into a marriage, either to other princes, or to marry children of certain aristocratic families within Soochow.
And Liu Bei, no matter how he is slandered by later generations, cannot erase his heroic spirit and perseverance, he is a hero in troubled times.
Instead, the Soochow side betrayed the alliance and launched a sneak attack, resulting in Guan Yu being killed and Liu Bei's dream of reviving the Han Dynasty shattered...
Sun Shangxiang read the history books and had a good impression of Shu Han.
Marrying a hero in troubled times is exactly what Sun Shangxiang wants. So... let's forget about Sun Quan's use of her.
at this time.
There was still some beads of sweat on Sun Shangxiang's forehead, and she rushed all the way. Her bright eyes looked closely at Sun Quan, hoping that he would respond to her and say with a smile that the rumors outside were false.
However, Sun Quan's expression was a little downcast and he did not speak. Gu Yong and Yu Fan were also silent.
"Second brother!"
Sun Shangxiang's originally bright eyes suddenly turned gloomy.
"You should step back first and summon the ministers according to my instructions!"
Sun Quan sighed slightly and said to Gu Yong and others.
Gu Yong and Yu Fan silently bowed their hands to him and Sun Shangxiang, and then walked out lightly. Ding Feng and Xu Sheng, the two generals of the bodyguard, also walked out of the room.
Sun Quan looked at his sister who was frozen in front of him and said: "There are no rumors outside, something has indeed happened to my father..."
News has begun to spread outside.
Obviously it can't be blocked.
So Sun Quan directly told the story of his father Sun Jian's death in battle. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Sun Shangxiang's face already covered with tears.
Sun Quan closed his mouth, and his chest suddenly felt extremely depressed.
He wished he could cut Fu Youde and Yang Dayan into pieces, but with the Huai army approaching, he could only suppress his grief and anger and deal with the crisis at hand as calmly as possible.
This is the fate of princes in troubled times. Even if their family members are killed, they must suppress their anger.
When Cao Cao's eldest son was killed, wasn't he heartbroken? Aren't you sad that your father was killed by Zhang Kai of Xuzhou?
Cao Cao is also a human being, with feelings, and his feelings are richer than others. But as the leader of the party, he had to consider the great cause, so he gritted his teeth and forgave Zhang Xiu for killing his eldest son.
Using his father's death as an excuse to invade Xuzhou...
Sun Quan also has such qualities and determination.
It's just that Sun Quan can keep calm, but Sun Shangxiang can't!
