The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 452 It's time to attack ([-])

A few days later, Zhang Fei's army had arrived at Zigui City.According to Zhang Fei's original intention, of course he wanted to continue eastward immediately in order to avenge Guan Yu.

However, Huang Quan felt that the army was dispatched this time, and the food and grass were consumed very quickly, and it was entirely possible to resupply in Zigui first.Moreover, the soldiers had just left home, and they couldn't help but feel a little impetuous, so they could let everyone spend a day in Zigui.

Besides, the waterway past Zigui is the famous Xiling Gorge.The following waterways are extremely difficult to navigate, and there are hidden reefs and dangerous shoals in many places. It is also good for everyone to have a mental preparation now.

Of course, most of these reasons are actually excuses.Because Huang Quan knew that Zhang Fei's current state of mind was too restless, and something might happen.That's why he used such tricks to make Zhang Fei's actions pause for a while.

Zhang Fei couldn't hold back Huang Quan, so he had to agree to supply and repair in Zigui City for a day, and then the army continued down the river.

After Liu Chan learned that Zhang Fei's army had passed Zigui, he was suddenly inexplicably excited.After all, the Jingzhou army was huddled in the camp for more than a month and did not dare to go out to fight. Although he euphemistically called it an army preparation for war, it was actually a very humiliating act.

In addition, the morale of the Jingzhou army has fully recovered now, and it is indeed time to fight the Wu army to the death.

Therefore, Liu Chan immediately summoned Shi Guangyuan, Wang Fu and Liao Hua to discuss sending troops.Liao Sheng did not attend, not because his rank was not high enough, but because the barracks he was in charge of had been moved to the west to monitor the barracks Zhuge Jin set up in Zhijiang.Therefore, Liao Sheng can't come back in time to participate now.

Soon, Shi Guangyuan and the three came to Liu Chan's tent one after another, and everyone immediately took their seats.

Shi Guangyuan looked as usual, wearing a black formal suit, and his figure was slightly fat, he really had the air of a high official.

Wang Fu, on the other hand, was wearing an orange shirt, but his figure was a bit thin, and his height was also shorter than Shi Guangyuan's. The light beard on his chin looked very beautiful, obviously the result of regular grooming.Sitting under Shi Guangyuan, he looked even thinner.

Liao Hua is no different from the two military advisers.He was the only person in the handsome tent who was fully clothed. When he walked in just now, his body made a rustling sound like falling leaves.He was the tallest and sat opposite Shi Guangyuan.

Liu Chan sat on the middle hall, with a thin body and not very tall.Coupled with his big twinkling eyes, although he looks energetic, he also seems a little too precocious, with a look of being old in business.Standing in the hall on his left is Zhuge Qiao in plain clothes.

Liu Chan saw that everyone had arrived, so he said to the hall: "Everyone, a few days ago, we have formulated a strategy for the next battle of Jingzhou. Out of safety, this son has already reported it to Chengdu Zhuge's army division and the king of Hanzhong have already agreed. Now, my second uncle Zhang Fei's Jiangzhou army has also attacked from Jiangzhou, and now it has passed the border of Zigui. Therefore, the timing of our army's counterattack against the Jiangdong army is also has come."

The faces of Shi Guangyuan and the three of them suddenly showed joy.Especially Liao Hua, these days his son ordered him not to play, and he was really aggrieved in his heart.Now, when he heard that he could finally fight, he was so happy that a bright smile appeared on his face.

Since the son came to Jingzhou, every time there was a big battle, he always made the battle plan first, and then convened everyone to discuss and revise it, or in the case of a more urgent situation, he immediately made the battle arrangement.

So, out of a habit, Liao Hua asked, "My lord, do you have a plan?"

Liu Chan smiled slightly and said: "There is no need to rush this matter, General Liao. The current situation in Jingzhou between the enemy and ourselves is really complicated, and it is much more complicated than the situation when we fought against the Wei army in Nanyang County that day. We So far, we haven’t come up with too many plans, so today we need everyone to work together to discuss the steps and strategies for sending troops.”

When Liu Chan said this, he turned his head and nodded to Zhuge Qiao at the bottom left.As soon as Zhuge cupped his hands, he quickly walked to Liao Hua's lower head and took a seat. On the table there, a pen, ink, paper and inkstone had already been laid out.

Liu Chan said: "So, if everyone has a good strategy to defeat the enemy, feel free to speak up, Zhuge Qiao will record it and make it into a regular battle plan later."

The three of Shi Guangyuan glanced at each other, then nodded each other.

Wang Fu first said: "Your Majesty, the situation in Xiangnan County is complicated and can be divided into three parts. The first part is about Jiangling City. Two generals, Yu Jin and Mi Fang, and three people in Zhizhong, Pan Jun, are leading the army to confront the main force of the Wu army. .”

Liu Chan nodded and said, "In terms of Jiangling City, Wu Jun's recent attack is still fierce, and both sides have suffered heavy losses. Although Jiangling City has been well prepared before, it is afraid that the night will be long and dreamy. Besides, if the war north of the Yangtze River is to end , we must face Sun Quan's main force."

Wang Fu nodded, and continued: "The second part is the south flank of Jiangling City composed of Sun Huan, Zhou Tai and Zhuge Jin's army. If the Wu army wants to attack the main force of the Wu army, they must be defeated first; Part of it is Xu Sheng's army on the south bank of the Yangtze River. This army has completely taken advantage of Captain Deng Ai's army on the south bank."

After Wang Fu said, everyone couldn't help but nodded secretly. This Wang Fu military adviser analyzed the matter really meticulously.After his division, the situation on the battlefield suddenly became very clear and organized.

On Zhuge Qiao's side, he has already picked up a pen and is writing vigorously on paper.His emotions seemed to be a little excited, and his cheeks became a little red from the whiteness just now.

Liu Chan couldn't help but praised Wang Fu: "Mr. Wang's division is really wonderful. In this way, the situation of the entire Jingzhou battlefield seems to become clear all of a sudden."

Shi Guangyuan also nodded appreciatively towards Wang Fu.Then, he bowed his hands to Liu Chan and said, "Your Majesty, since the situation has been clarified, the next step is to formulate the offensive."

Overall planning and prioritization are Liu Chan's specialty.He thought for a while and said, "Zhou Tai's army was the first to block our army's eastward approach to Jiangling City. Of course he will be our army's first attack target."

Then, Liu Chan will consult Shi Guangyuan and others on how to defeat Zhou Tai's army.

Liao Hua was obviously very resentful towards Zhou Tai, and immediately cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, please send thousands of troops to the general, and the general will promise to take the head of Zhou Tai!"

Seeing that Liao Hua was so excited, Liu Chan smiled and asked Liao Hua to calm down first and listen to what others had to say.After all, what Liu Chan wants now is a good strategy to kill the enemy, not a guarantee from Liao Hua's enthusiasm.

Wang Fu went on to say: "Zhou Tai has invited our army to fight for more than a month. But our army has strictly obeyed the order of the prince and has never fought once."

When Wang Fu said this, Liao Hua suddenly snorted coldly, obviously feeling very uncomfortable.

Wang Fu glanced at Liao Hua, but he didn't care about him. After all, we had worked with Guan Junhou for many years and knew his personality well.

Wang Fu went on to say: "Zhou Tai's troops must have become paralyzed towards our army, thinking that our army will continue to stay in the camp as usual. Therefore, if our army wants to defeat Zhou Tai's army, Perhaps a surprise attack can be used."
