The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 642 Quan Cong Offers Advice
Quan Cong saw Yu Jin's seriousness, and his face became serious. It seemed that he was infected by Yu Jin.

Quan Cong bowed his hands to Yu Jin and said, "General Yu, after thinking and calculating these days, the last general believes that the strength of the army of more than 5 people led by Sun Jiao has at least used the strength of the current Jiangdong mainland. , the area south of the Yangtze River is close to two-thirds of the troops."

Yu Jin nodded. He and Liu Chan still lacked information about Jiangdong's overall military strength, so it was impossible to make a judgment.However, now that Quan Cong said this, he saved himself a lot of effort.

Moreover, Quan Cong's original area of ​​military strength mentioned here is limited to the area south of the Yangtze River. As for the army in the north area used to maintain the confrontation with Cao Wei's army, it should not be included in Quan Cong's calculation.

But no matter how you say it, Sun Quan has mobilized two-thirds of his troops from various parts of the mainland, which has already left the defense of the rear area very empty.

Quan Cong saw that there was nothing to say, so he went on to say: "So from the point of view of the general, if we have enough courage and sufficient strategic arrangements, as long as we eliminate Sun Jiao's army, then why don't we worry about Jiangdong being destroyed?" Woolen cloth?"

Yu Jin heard that he was sitting upright, but suddenly his back became straighter, and the brilliance in his tiger eyes became even more intense.It can be seen that Yu Jin was also shocked by Quan Cong's huge "ambition".

It should be said that Yu Jin served as Liu Chan's army and was mainly stationed in Xiangtan. He knew the current situation and logistics of the two armies of Shu Han inside and out.Of course he knew very well how much pressure Zhang Fei and Liu Chan were under under the deterrence of Sun Jiao's huge Jiangdong Army elite troops.

In fact, from the fact that a madman like Zhang Fei has now very cautiously ordered the army to temporarily stop attacking Xiajun, it is enough to see some clues.Because even Zhang Fei himself now believes that the combined combat effectiveness of the Jingzhou Army and the Jiangdong Army is superior to Sun Jiao's army.

So under such a background, Quan Cong actually told Yu Jin that he still wanted to destroy Sun Jiao's large army?

——This young man couldn't be mad because he wanted to avenge his mother so much, right?But even if you want revenge, you have to take it step by step!What's more, your enemy is still the family of Soochow King Sun Quan.

Such a thought suddenly appeared in Yu Jin's heart.However, because the expression on his face rarely changed, it didn't make Quan Cong feel anything strange.

Yu Jin had to interrupt at this time.He asked Quan Cong to calm down and calm down before speaking.Then, he told Quan Cong the comparison of the strengths of the enemy and ourselves in the south of Jingzhou.

In fact, now that Quan Cong has arrived in Yiyang City, Yu Jin is not afraid that Quan Cong will suddenly change his mind and stop betraying Jiangdong because the power of Shu Han appears to be weaker.Quan Cong now has no way out, and can only continue to follow Shizi to the dark.

After all, Quan Cong was still young. After listening to Yu Jin's introduction, he was stunned for a while and said: "If this is the case, the situation on the front line is indeed more pessimistic than what the general guessed. However, both the Jingzhou Army and the Jingzhou Army There are a total of more than 3 troops in total, and although there is a gap compared with Sun Jiao's army, it is not very far behind."

Yu Jin frowned, knowing that Quan Cong was really anxious to encourage the Shu Han army to attack the Jiangdong army.But Yu Jin is a person who has been baptized by strong winds and waves, and he has always been calm, so he immediately became wary of Quan Cong's words.He will absolutely not allow the army to agitate for his personal enmity, and then end up with annihilation in the end.

Therefore, Yu Jin immediately interrupted what Quan Cong was going to say next, and told Quan Cong what he said before, that the heirs of the Jingzhou Army and Jiangzhou Army are now physically tired. again.Of course, Yu Jin's words were definitely subtly refuting Quan Cong's words, letting Quan Cong know that the current strength gap between the two sides exists easily!
Quan Cong was not a fool, he immediately understood the meaning of Yu Jin's words, a wry smile appeared on his face, and said: "General Yu's meaning, I will eventually understand. But the physical strength of the soldiers, as long as they recuperate for a period of time It can be recovered, can't it?"

This is a truth that everyone knows, but it is the autumn harvest season, and it is difficult for the people of Jiangdong to tolerate the army of the Shu Han for a long time, and continue to hoard it at their "doorstep".

In other words, if the army of the Shu Han insisted on continuing the confrontation between the two armies, the army of Jiangdong might not have the patience to wait until the end of autumn.They should have taken the initiative to attack Shu Han's army before that time.

That is to say, although Sun Jiao's army did not directly enter the war, it actually controlled the initiative in the entire southern part of Jingzhou.

That's why Zhang Fei and Liu Chan were caught in a dilemma at this time: they had waited until most of the south of Jingzhou, but they hadn't won the peace they wanted by force.

Quan Cong obviously didn't know about this. After all, this was the consensus of some people at the highest level, and Quan Cong had been in the Jiangdong Army all along, so of course it was impossible for him to understand.

However, Yu Jin did not refute Quan Cong this time, but only asked: "Of course it is possible to repair, but is there any way for General Quan to get enough repairs for my family?"

Quan Cong replied: "This is a new situation, and the general will not be able to think of a specific countermeasure for a while. But what is absolutely certain is that the high-level people in Jiangdong are actually already tired of the current war. Well, they all really want to reach a peaceful agreement with the Shu Han in the shortest possible time. Therefore, as long as we grasp this point, it may become an opportunity to delay the current war."

Yu Jin nodded. Although Quan Cong didn't provide a specific answer, he should have a more accurate perspective on the question.He motioned Quan Cong to continue talking.

Quan Cong nodded and said: "As far as the general knows, the Jiangdong army thinks that it is far away from the original station, and it is difficult to get new troops from Jiangdong for a while. But the Jingzhou army is different. Shi Guangyuan, the military strategist of the Zhenjun, still has an army of more than 1 people in his hands, and there are more than [-] troops in Jiangling City. These are the troops that can be recruited into the battlefield."

Yu Jin's heart moved, this Quan Cong is really not an ordinary person, although he is in Lukou Port, of course he has done a good job in collecting information in Jingzhou.It can be seen that this person's vision is definitely very broad, and leading troops to fight does not limit his thinking.

Quan Cong continued to tell Yu Jin that, if possible, the Jingzhou Army could draw some troops from Shangyong and Xincheng.

When Quan Cong said these words, he knew that he lacked a little understanding of the political situation in southern Shu Han.Shangyong is now Liu Feng's territory, and it is almost impossible for him to send troops to help Liu Chan.As for the thousands of troops of Meng Da in Xincheng, Liu Chan is unlikely to be mobilized.To put it bluntly, they were Liu Chan's power to monitor Liu Feng at any time.

But Yu Jin is very cautious, there is no need to tell Quan Cong clearly about the knot between Liu Feng and Liu Chan, right?
Therefore, Yu Jin just said indifferently: "Based on the current situation, it is still relatively difficult to mobilize the troops of the three eastern counties. But for the troops of the South County, at least 1 people should be able to mobilize to go south to support the battle."

Yu Jin's words partially affirmed Quan Cong's opinion.

Quan Cong thought about it for himself, if the army of 1 people is commanded properly, it should already be able to play a very important role.

Therefore, Quan Cong suddenly showed an inexplicable excitement on his face at this moment.

Quan Cong immediately said to Jin: "General Yu, if Nanjun's army can really be recruited, then the last general has a way to help Liu Shizi and General Zhang Fei defeat Sun Jiao's army."

Yu Jin couldn't help but let out a long oh, his tone seemed quite surprised, Quan Cong is still persisting like this now?He suddenly came up with a very strange point of view:

Jiangdong people are either stubborn by nature, or absolutely tough.That young man named Lu Xun really caused great trouble to the army of Shu Han.The younger Quan Cong in front of him is actually the same!
Yu Jin asked Quan Cong to finish the rest of the sentence.

Quan Cong immediately sorted out his thoughts. After all, what Yu Jin said to him just now contained a lot of things that he didn't understand clearly before.

Only then did Quan Cong come up with his own plan.

Quan Cong first told Yu Jin that his navy of nearly [-] people in Lukou Port should not publicly announce the uprising for the time being.Instead, it only needs to join forces with the Jiangzhou navy in secret.In this way, his navy can become a hidden force on the Shu Han side.Moreover, the thousand-mile Yangtze River waterway from Jiangxia County to Nanjun is actually in the hands of Shu Han.

Yu Jin nodded, feeling that Quan Cong's opinion was sound.

Then, the Jiangzhou navy loaded Shi Guangyuan's troops near Yidao, and went down the river to finally land in Shaxian.Shaxian is located to the north of Lukou Port, in today's West Jinkou, Wuchang, Hubei, and is extremely close to the top of the south bank of the Yangtze River in Jiangxia County.

At the same time, Zhang Fei's troops wanted to capture Xiajun immediately, as if they were going to enter Jiangxia County with a large army.

Then at that time, Sun Jiao must lead his army into Jiangxia County at that time, and then the two armies of Shu Han will attack Sun Jiao's army at the same time, and Sun Jiao's army will inevitably be defeated.

Yu Jin really admired it in his heart, this young Quan Cong's mind is really very fast.His strategy completely took advantage of the advantages that the Shu Han side now has.

But it can also be seen from this that Quan Cong's plan was hastily thought up.Otherwise, just now he said that he would destroy Sun Jiao's troops, but now it has turned into a defeat.

Yu Jin is indeed an old man, his eyes are really vicious!
Moreover, Yu Jin has also seen that Quan Cong's plan is not completely without loopholes, and detailed planning is needed before it is worth taking action.
