Rebirth God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 1707: Sun Ce's thoughts

In the past, the princes did ignore the power of the common people. In their eyes, the common people were the lowest existence, providing the army with a source of soldiers. However, after fighting with the Bingzhou Army, their views gradually changed. The power of ordinary people, If the monarch can use it properly, it will also be a great help. In Lu Bu's body, this has been greatly reflected. All the princes want to have strong strength.

When Lv Bu went to Liangzhou, Cao Cao and other princes breathed a sigh of relief. A powerful Chang'an was a huge threat to the princes. They wished that Lv Bu could lose more troops in the process of pacifying Liangzhou. There is no strength to attack other princes.

Even though Lu Bu mobilized 70,000 troops this time, the princes in the Central Plains still dare not underestimate Chang'an. At this time, there are 20,000 troops around Chang'an. The location of the foundation has a lot to do with its terrain. The checkpoints around Chang'an provide a guarantee for the safety of Chang'an. It is difficult for the princes to invade the checkpoints and make great progress. On the contrary, it is not a wise move to offend Lu Bu at this time. .

After the news of Lu Bu's successive victories in Liangzhou came, the princes became more in awe of Lu Bu, and the army that attacked Liangzhou was gradually withdrawing to Chang'an. After they won the victory, they left behind a certain number of defenders. , will return to their respective stations.

Liangzhou is barren, and it is difficult to provide food and grass for the army.

After Liangzhou was pacified, not only the princes, but even the officials in Chang'an thought that Lu Bu would lead the troops back to Chang'an. However, the development of things was unexpected, and Lu Bu led an army to attack Wei Li.

The Kingdom of Weili has posed a considerable threat to Liangzhou over the years. However, if the army goes out of Yumen Pass to attack the Kingdom of Weili, it will be a big challenge, mainly because of the problem of supplies. Affect the stability of Chang'an.

After Jia Xu faced this situation, he became more cautious. After a certain period of recuperation, the princes would not give Lu Bu too long to develop, especially Cao Cao, who was ambitious, and Lu Bu became stronger and stronger. The greater the threat to Cao Cao, this is why Cao Cao agreed to join forces with Lu Bu at the beginning. He needed to improve his own strength, so that the army would have a greater advantage when facing Lu Bu in the future.

Jiangdong made a big breakthrough in this battle in Jingzhou, occupying most of the counties in Jingzhou. This is a great encouragement for Jiangdong, and Sun Ce's advancement to the King of Wu also made the civil servants and generals under his command high-spirited.

After years of turmoil in the Han Dynasty, the civil servants and military generals who originally prided themselves on being the courtiers of the Han Dynasty have fallen to the lowest point of respect for the Han Dynasty. The powerful princes will win their support, and the strength and courage shown by Sun Ce in Jiangdong, The impact on Jiangdong is huge.

Only when Sun Ce's status is higher, can they benefit more.

In Jiangdong, there are also many aristocratic families who reject Sun Ce, but such aristocratic families are gradually weakening as Sun Ce's strength grows.

Lv Bu led the army to attack Liangzhou, which made Sun Ce a little bit unstoppable. What he longed for most was to seize Yizhou after obtaining Jingzhou, and form a three-point situation in the world. Otherwise, Jiangdong's strength among the princes would be overwhelming. In the future, this situation is naturally not what Sun Ce wants to see.

In the past, when Sun Ce attacked Jingzhou, he did not have much conflict with Cao Jun. However, after Xiangyang was captured by Cao Jun, Liu Qi entered Yizhou.

Sun Ce wants to further enhance Jiangdong's strength, and attacking Wuling and Nanjun has become an inevitable trend. As for cooperating with the princes to threaten Chang'an again, even if he succeeds, Jiangdong will not get much. However, with Lu Bu If they jointly attack Cao Cao, Jiangdong's strength will go further. This is why Sun Ceming knew that Lu Bu joined him to contain Cao Cao and still agreed.

The storage of grain and grass gave Sun Ce greater confidence. He wants to achieve greater breakthroughs in this year's war, and if he wants to break through Nanjun and Wuling counties, it is urgent to unite with Chang'an. As long as Chang'an threatens Yanzhou or Nanyang's actions can affect Cao Jun's troops, but it is more difficult to persuade Chang'an to send troops at this time.

"Gong Jin, the king of Jin led troops to attack Liangzhou, and after he pacified the Qiang people in Liangzhou, he led the army to attack Wei Li. It is difficult to return to Chang'an in a short time. It may be difficult to persuade Chang'an to send troops to threaten Nanyang." Sun Ce road.

Zhou Yu laughed and said, "My lord, there is no need to worry. Although there are only 20,000 soldiers in Chang'an, after Tai Shici and Pang De led the troops to quell the Qiang people, they have returned to Chang'an, and even built a road from Liangzhou to Chang'an. This shows that King Suo Tu of the Second Jin Dynasty is not small, and the troops who followed Lu Bu to battle Liangzhou are also returning to Chang'an one after another. The strength of Chang'an's troops will soon reach 50,000. With this large army, we will support our lord to capture Nanjun and Wuling County, of course, is not a problem, especially Wuling County, Jiangdong is bound to win."

Wuling County belongs to the four counties in Jingnan, and it also has an important position in Jingzhou. Now Sun Ce has Jiangxia County, Lingling County, Changsha County, and Guiyang County. These counties belong to the weaker type in Jingzhou, such as Jiangxia , is often attacked by the Jiangdong army, and the slow development can be imagined, and Guiyang and other counties are close to the barbarians, and their development has also been threatened. The most prosperous Jingzhou is Nanjun and Wuling counties. As long as Wuling counties With control in hand, Jiangdong Army can further threaten Nanjun.

After the success, Cao Jun will only have one county in Nanyang County in the counties and counties of Jingzhou. In this way, Cao Jun's influence in Jingzhou will be minimized.

The reason why Sun Ce has such confidence is also related to the officials from Jingzhou going to Xudu. Cao Cao worried that if the officials from Jingzhou stayed in Jingzhou, there would be a big threat to the governance of the region, so he was moved to Xudu with the court.

After the big families in Jingzhou leave, Jingzhou will become more pure. Although Jiangdong has been fighting with Jingzhou in recent years, he has secretly contacted the small families in Jingzhou. The power of these families is not conspicuous on weekdays. If it comes to the most critical time of the battle, it will be fatal to Cao Jun if he suddenly comes out.

"It would be more appropriate for someone to go to Chang'an." Sun Ce asked.

Zhou Yu was silent for a moment and said: "This time, my subordinates will go to Chang'an in person to persuade Jia Xu to send troops to threaten Nanyang." you come tease~
