Thanks to Zhu Meng's proposal to unite with the Wuxi barbarians, the momentum in the house rose again.

Liu Zhang waited for a while, but in the end no one came forward to offer any suggestions or strategies.

This result was not beyond Liu Zhang's expectations.

Among the crowd, Zhang Liao's combat talent was almost the ceiling.

"Generals, the strategy mentioned by Wen Yuan just now is very solitary!"

"But I need to change it a little bit."

All the generals pricked up their ears, waiting for Liu Zhang's final decision.

"If you connect Kuai Liang, Huang Zu and Sun Quan, it will definitely waste a lot of time."

"It's almost September now, and there's not much time left for us to attack."

"I've decided to attack Jingzhou first!"

Huang Zhong frowned and asked questions quickly.

"Duke Qin, should we face Liu Beijun alone?"

Huang Zhong is not afraid, but does not want to waste a good situation.

Why should this advantage be wasted when they can be encircled on all sides?

Xu Shu and Zhang Fei have just won a big victory, and their morale must be strong at this time!

If you fight your own side with all your strength, it will inevitably cause the most intense collision, and the losses will naturally be extremely heavy.

Liu Zhang waved his hand casually, and the smile on the corner of his mouth had already answered Huang Zhong's question.

"Gu just said that it would be too troublesome to send people to contact, and he didn't want to fight Liu Beijun alone."

"Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue is a wise man. Now that he has the power of Huang Zu, he must keep an eye on the troubles in Nanjun all the time."

"The foundation of the Kuai family is in Xiangyang. As long as we take the lead in attacking, they will definitely threaten Xiangyang."

"Secondly, Jiang Xia Zhou Yu is a rare general in a century, and his lifelong dream is to capture Nanjun!"

"Moreover, Liu Bei attacked Sun Quan's Yuzhang County. The two are fighting to the death. How can Zhou Yu let go of such a great opportunity?"

"So even if we don't send people to contact us, the armies from all walks of life will not let go of the opportunity to besiege Nanjun!"

Huang Zhong suddenly realized it, and all the generals admired him.

"Qin Gong Sheng Ming!"

Liu Zhang didn't stop at everyone's praise, but turned to look at Meng Da.

"Zidu, you had an attack with Army Division Pang before, tell me about your views on the terrain."

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in all battles.

Although there are elite soldiers and strong generals under his command, if he is not familiar with the terrain and does not make the most appropriate arrangements, it will definitely be difficult to win.

All Liu Zhang knew about Yufu's journey to Jiangling was the Battle of Yiling launched by Liu Bei in history.

In the end, Liu Bei was defeated and tens of thousands of troops were burned.

As for Sima Yan's destruction of Wu, there is almost no reference, after all, there were no famous generals in Wu at that time.

No matter how bad Xu Shu is now sitting in Nanjun, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang have entrusted him with important tasks!

The military of Nanjun, the capital of the capital, must not be underestimated.

It can be said that Liu Zhang did not have a successful experience in his mind to tell him how to deal with the upcoming battle of Yiling.

And the present is very similar to history!

Liu Bei led more than 50,000 soldiers and horses when he launched the Battle of Yiling, and Liu Zhang still has more than 50,000 soldiers and horses today.

Then the difficulties that Liu Bei has faced will most likely be transferred to Liu Zhang in the future.

Therefore, Meng Da's description of Zigui and other places is very important.

Meng Da didn't dare to talk nonsense, and quickly recalled the past experience of this journey in his mind.

"Qin Gong, from Yufu to Zigui, and then to Yiling, there are mountains and mountains with mixed vegetation, which is not conducive to advancing troops."

"It was difficult for the last general and Pang Junshi to lead 5,000 people before, and the soldiers had to line up one by one due to the terrain."

"If tens of thousands of troops enter the mountain, the difficulty of marching is just like climbing to the sky!"

It was almost as Liu Zhang imagined, and the difficulty was not ordinary!

No wonder Pang Tong took the risk of attacking Yiling himself, completely opening the way to Jiangling.

"Zidu, what will happen if we forcibly march?"

After hearing Liu Zhang's question, Meng Da's face was extremely ugly.

"Duke Qin..."

It just so happened that everyone was looking at him again, making Meng Da speechless.

"But it's okay to say, don't wait until the army goes out to say it."

Liu Zhang understood what Meng Da meant, so he mustered up the courage to speak out.

At least let everyone know that attacking Jingzhou is not an easy task.

"Obey!"

After receiving Liu Zhang's encouragement, Meng Da immediately said everything out of his heart.

"Duke Qin, generals, Zigui City is better. It is relatively wide in all directions. If you attack by force, you can take it even if you lose a lot."

"However, it is very difficult to travel from Zigui to Yiling. You can't even walk along the Yangtze River. You can only go deep into the jungle."

"I heard that Army Division Pang was ambushed by Liu Beijun because he reached the narrowest point."

Meng Da was no longer afraid of hitting everyone's morale, and that was the fact.

As long as you attack, you will definitely face terrain problems.

Liu Zhang nodded slightly, and then fell into deep thought.

No wonder Liu Bei would rather cross mountains and mountains than cross Wushan to avoid Yiling.

There is almost no possibility of breaking through Yiling with a frontal attack.

"Generals, Liu Bei's commander in Nanjun is Zhang Fei, and his military advisor is Xu Shu."

"Zhang Fei won't say much. He is so brave that he can't be easily defeated. Xu Shu also knows military affairs very well, and he is a fellow of Pang Junshi."

"So we have to prepare for the worst. The enemy has laid out the perfect deployment."

The faces of the generals were heavy, and they all put away their contempt.

Now they all know that the enemy is not an incompetent person who can fight.

Liu Zhang looked around and found that his brows were almost frowned, and he was in a state of helplessness.

It is indeed very difficult to advance eastward to attack Jiangling, and the purpose of this advance is not to occupy Jingzhou.

If the Eastern Army is fully formed, Liu Zhang is sure to win the entire five counties of Jingzhou in one go, which is easy to say.

It is this situation of strictly reducing the scale of the battle and not allowing the flames of war to expand without limit, which makes people feel a little restrained.

Liu Zhang turned his head to look at Gan Ning, who was also the key figure in this eastward march.

"Xingba."

Gan Ning quickly woke up from his thoughts, and looked at Liu Zhang with folded hands.

"The end is here!"

"Xingba, what is the situation of the navy? How many soldiers can we fight?"

"Fives…"

Just as Gan Ning was about to blurt out, Zhou Tai on the side immediately pulled him back.

Not only that, Jiang Qin also tried his best to wink at Gan Ning, telling him not to talk nonsense.

Gan Ning paused, and finally said a number.

"Reporting to Duke Qin, the navy has 20,000 elites, and the remaining 30,000 are recruits. The training time is still short, and the combat effectiveness has not yet formed."

Twenty thousand horses, that is, the strength of the Yufushui Army when it was formed.

Liu Zhang nodded, since Yufu came, he hadn't had time to go to the navy to have a look.

"How about the warship? Are there any buildings?"
