The Battle of Princes Worldwide Online

Chapter 302

In the eyes of later generations, Liu Bowen's ability is not weaker than Zhuge Kongming, and his analysis of the situation has reached an unimaginable level.

Just imagine, can a ruthless person who can say that a general can be destroyed and a country cannot be destroyed can be a simple character?
Zhu Yuanzhang massacred meritorious ministers in his later years. Wasn't he influenced by him?
It is such a great talent who still said such words in the face of such a situation, which shows the seriousness of the situation.

Perhaps seeing Liu Bowen's gaffe, Xu Da couldn't sit still, and asked again: "Could it be Sun Jian?"

"Probably not. Although Sun Jian's strength is good, he won't make the lord so impatient. Let alone Jinling City..."

Speaking of this, Liu Bowen stopped talking. The matter of luck is too mysterious. Even if he said it, not many people believed it. Besides, he didn't want Zhu Yuanzhang to know at this time.

After thinking about it, Liu Bowen went on to say: "It may be that the north has changed, and it is very likely that Han Xin came personally!"

"Han Xin! You mean Liu Bang is going to attack us?" Hearing this, Xu Da became anxious.

What kind of character is Liu Bang?

Not to mention that this person is still the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang admired the most, and he is often used to encourage him on weekdays.

If this is true, it will be a big deal. Since Liu Bang has sent Han Xin here, his willingness to win Yangzhou must be extremely high, and there must be a battle between the two sides!
With their stomachs full of worries, Xu Da and Liu Bowen immediately speeded up, and finally arrived at Jinling City seven days later, that is, on April [-]th in the fourth year of the new calendar.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang had been discussing with civil and military officials for a week. When Xu Da and Liu Bowen came in, everyone was still arguing.

The small conference hall is now full of people, including Tang He, Chang Yuchun, Lan Yu, Mu Ying, Li Wenzhong, Deng Yu, Fu Youde and more than [-] generals.

The civil servants included Li Shanchang, Zhu Sheng, Song Lian and more than [-] people.

A large group of people are arguing endlessly, there are both advocates and advocates, both sides insist on their own opinions, and no one can say anything.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't speak to stop him when he saw the people who were chaotic below.

He himself was a little panicked, let alone the others.

This time, they let go of their hands and feet to quarrel, one is to vent, and at the same time it is to weaken the fear of Liu Bang.

Don't be in a hurry when you encounter things. Once you are in a hurry, your emotions will be affected, and it will be difficult to make a rational decision.

Although Liu Bang is frightening, it is not impossible to do anything. It is impossible to abandon Jiujiang and Lujiang counties. The Yangtze River, which is close to the north of Danyang County, can protect itself, let alone the Huaihe River to the north of Jiujiang County and Lujiang County. Natural barriers, at this time, the only thing that really needs to be guarded is the west of Jiujiang County, and the battle site is relatively fixed. Even Han Xin can't skip the natural barriers and directly attack the hinterland.

If he really did this, Zhu Yuanzhang would welcome it very much. The biggest advantage of his side is the warship. This is the gap of the times, and it is extremely difficult for Liu Bang to make up for it.

He has as many as 15 sailors under his command, which is completely crushing strength.

While thinking, he happened to hear a report from the guard at the door, saying that Xu Da and Liu Bowen had come.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang quickly stood up from his seat, and asked Liu Bowen, "Liu Bang in the north wants to attack us. Does the military master have any countermeasures?"

Before entering Jinling City, Liu Bowen heard the guards report the situation of both sides, and at the same time knew the number of troops led by Han Xin.

He already had a draft in his heart, and now he opened his mouth and said: "My lord, is he ready to face the battle?"

As soon as Liu Bowen finished speaking, the entire meeting room fell silent instantly, and everyone's eyes turned to Zhu Yuanzhang, who was at the top.

Facing a pair of expectant eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said indifferently: "Since Liu Bang is going to attack us, we can't be shy, we must fight!" A resounding sentence has settled the previous quarrel.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of gasping for air, but soon, Chang Yuchun and others were heard shouting.

Chang Yuchun is the most steadfast advocate of the war faction. As the figure with the highest military strength in the Ming Dynasty, he has no opponent under Zhu Yuanzhang. He has long wanted to meet the heroes of the world for a while, especially when he heard that With Fan Kuai here, this idea became even stronger.

However, rough people like Chang Yuchun were still in the minority. Others, even Tang He, Lan Yu and others wanted to hear what Liu Bowen would say.

On the other hand, after hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's answer, Liu Bowen also admired him a lot. He still maintained his due calm in the face of such pressure. This determination alone can be called a wise master.

After adjusting his clothes, Liu Bowen first saluted him, and then said: "If you want to resist Liu Bang's invasion, there is only one way to go!"

"Don't be a military adviser, we are very anxious."

Seeing Liu Bowen's tone paused, Zhu Yuanzhang said again.

"I boldly suggest that my lord give up Jiujiang and Lujiang counties, stick to Danyang county, and at the same time send envoys to Xuzhou to explain the serious relationship to Liu Bang."

"My lord has 15 elite sailors, which Liu Bang does not have. As long as the navy is put on top of the natural danger of the Yangtze River, Liu Bang will never have the possibility of occupying Danyang County. Keeping Danyang County is one of them."

"Secondly, it's not just our family who feel the pressure from Liu Bang's attack. Sima Rui and Sun Jian in the south will also feel it. If the lord can take the initiative to give up the two counties and retreat while fighting, it will create the illusion that Liu Bang's army is invincible. , there will definitely be people who can't bear it and reconsider the place of foundation."

"Now that Sun Jian has occupied Wu County and Kuaiji County, he will not withdraw easily. Then Sima Rui who is trapped in Yuzhang County will withdraw. Sima Rui's strength itself is the weakest of the three parties. Even if it is for self-protection, It is also impossible to stay in Yangzhou for a long time, and then the lord can rush to attack Yuzhang County before Sun Jian, creating the illusion of helplessness, as long as he exerts a little pressure, Sima Rui will definitely hasten Sima Rui's withdrawal from Yangzhou."

"Occupying Yuzhang County is the second. At that time, the two counties will be connected together, and the depth will suddenly increase. They can form a confrontation with Sun Jian in the south of the Yangtze River. When the situation stabilizes, the Lord can vigorously develop the navy. To resist Liu Bang and stabilize the border, the second is to concentrate our forces to attack Wu County, as long as Wu County is under control, the two richest counties south of the Yangtze River will all be in the hands of the Lord, and Sun Jian will be destroyed without any attack."
