The Strongest Lu Bu's Sweeping Thousands of Armies

Chapter 222 The General Only Needs to Do Two Things
Sun Quan refused to order the soldiers to rest, and the staff asked: "Dare to ask Zhongmou, do you think we can rush all the way to Wancheng?"

"Mr. Zhuge, do you think we will encounter any trouble?" Sun Quan frowned, with a trace of displeasure on his face, and asked his staff.

The aide who asked him to order to be stationed was Zhuge Jin whom Pang Tong had mentioned to Gao Shun.

Zhuge Jin has read a lot of books, and he is very proficient in both internal affairs and military affairs.

He also has a high status in Jiangdong Sun's family, but it is much worse than Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao and others.

Zhou Yu followed Sun Ce to Lujiang. When he sent someone to ask Jiangdong for help, the whole Sun family exploded.

Sun Ce has led the army for many years, and has won many battles, big and small. No one has ever defeated him so thoroughly.

His prestige in Jiangdong can even stop a child from crying at night.

However, when he came to Lujiang this time, he was completely defeated by Lu Bu, so that he could only stick to Wancheng and ask Jiangdong for help.

Sun Jian had several sons.

Besides Sun Ce, he also has a third son, Sun Yi, who is one year younger than Sun Quan.

Among the sons of the Sun family, Sun Yi is the most similar to Sun Ce.

It's just that he is still young, although he is brave, the Sun family refuses to let him lead the troops to help Wancheng.

Since no suitable person could be found, the Sun family could only appoint Sun Quan to come.

Sun Quan asked if he would encounter trouble, Zhuge Jin replied: "We are marching towards Wancheng, and Lu Bu is also marching towards Wancheng. If Zhongmou is Lu Bu, knowing that there are troops rushing to help Wancheng, will he divide his troops before Come to meet?"

Sun Quan frowned.

What Zhuge Jin said is indeed reasonable. If he was Lu Bu, he would definitely divide his troops to fight back if he knew that there was a soldier coming to help Wancheng.Even if they can't be defeated, as long as they stop them, it will be a victory for Lu Bu!
"Knowing that the enemy will come to stop us, we should move faster." Sun Quan said, "The closer we are to Wancheng, the more peace of mind my brother will have."

"That's not the case." Zhuge Jin shook his head: "The closer we are to Wancheng, the more chances we will be wiped out by Lu Bu."

Staring at Zhuge Jin, Sun Quan asked puzzledly, "Why do you say that?"

"The reason is very simple." Zhuge Jin replied: "Our army rushes to help Bofu. The army is stationed not far from Wancheng, and the morale of the defenders is like a rainbow. If the reinforcements are defeated, the morale of the defenders in the city will plummet. We don't have high walls and deep pools. As long as Lu Bu sends a small number of troops to defend against those who may come out of the city, and concentrates all his energy on a surprise attack on our army, our army will definitely be defeated by a single blow. Second, our army is eager to rush to the city. In Wancheng, the soldiers must be very tired on the road. The soldiers and horses sent by Lu Bu only need to detect our army's movements all the way, and then attack head-on. They are waiting for work, and it is our army who suffers!"

"Sir, what do you mean..." Sun Quan was confused.

Zhuge Jin replied: "Order the soldiers to march slowly, and when they arrive at a place, they will be stationed. They will send scouts to the vicinity of Wancheng to inform the defenders in the city that reinforcements will arrive in a few days. In this way, the morale of the defenders in the city is high. Our army doesn't need to exhaust our soldiers. Even if Lu Bu comes, he won't be without strength to fight!"

Sun Quan understood what Zhuge Jin meant this time.

He nodded and said, "What Mr. Zhuge said is absolutely true!"

Although it was still early, he still ordered the soldiers to station on the spot according to what Zhuge Jin said.

Gao Shun, who led the army here, got the news that Sun Quan was stationed soon after.

In this era, there is no telephone, internet or any other tool that can quickly transmit information, and all information can only be transmitted by people.

When Gao Shun got the news, the sky had already darkened, but it was still not the time to garrison troops.

Looking up at the sky, Gao Shun muttered suspiciously: "Sun Quan is stationed so early, what is he trying to do?"

"He is unwilling to use a tired army to meet our army that is waiting for work." Pang Tong said: "General Gao does not need to continue marching, just order the soldiers to wait here, and send scouts to watch the enemy's movements at any time."

"Aren't you going forward?" Gao Shun asked suspiciously.

"Don't move forward." Pang Tong replied: "They don't want to encounter our army who is waiting for work. We just want them to face our army who has enough rest when they come."

"Soldiers who are trapped in the camp are never afraid of hard work." Gao Shun was very disapproving of Pang Tong's statement: "I think the soldiers should be marched faster and repelled earlier. In case they stay here, after that If you don't take half a step forward..."

"They will never!" Pang Tong said confidently: "As long as General Gao does two things, Sun Quan will lose his composure. Fight our army with a tired division."

"What should I do?" Gao Shun frowned and asked.

Lu Bu ordered him to lead the camp to face Sun Quan, but Pang Tong wanted him to camp on the spot. Gao Shun was somewhat puzzled by this.

However, he really wanted to know what method Pang Tong would use to urge Sun Quan to march faster.

"In fact, it is not for the general to do it, but for the general to send a message to Marquis Wen, asking him to send someone to do it." Pang Tong replied: "First, the general can ask Marquis Wen to send an air force to investigate Sun Quan and his subordinates. The movement of the scouts. Second, the general should ask Marquis Wen to send troops to intercept the scouts sent by Sun Quan."

"Intercept and kill the scouts?" Gao Shun shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not that easy..."

"It was really not that easy in the past, but now it's not that difficult to intercept the enemy scouts." Pang Tong said, "As long as Marquis Wen sends out the air force to investigate, the enemy scouts will definitely be unable to hide their whereabouts. At that time, we will send people to intercept and kill them in the area." Half way."

"The scouts are just to detect the movements of our army. I don't think it's important to ignore them." Gao Shun was very disapproving of Pang Tong's proposal.

"If it's just to check the movement of our army, of course there is no need to go to war with them." Pang Tong replied: "If they are trying to contact Wancheng and let the enemy defending the city know that reinforcements are not far away, will they attack Wenhou? Is there any hindrance?"

Gao Shun was stunned, he stared at Pang Tong for a long time: "Pang Tong's words do have some truth, then follow Pang Gong first!"

Persuaded by Pang Tong, Gao Shun immediately ordered the soldiers to station on the spot.

Then, he sent another messenger to look for Lu Bu.

He led the army to march towards Wancheng, and when he was about to reach Wancheng, Lu Bu was stationed, and Gao Shun's messenger returned to the barracks.

When they arrived at the barracks, the messenger went straight to Lu Bu's tent.

Hearing that Gao Shun had sent a messenger back, Lu Bu immediately asked the guards to lead him into the tent.
