Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 1381: Sun Gan's Mission to Jiangdong

If the content of the first notice was ordinary, the content of the second notice moved the people. Cao Jun actually dealt with the soldiers who invaded the people after entering Wancheng, and among them was a general.

The general's status in the army was not low, and the people were talking about it, and they were even more tempted by what happened outside the city gate at noon.

At the same time, the execution of a partial general and 120 soldiers in the army caused a great shock among Cao Cao's army. Before entering Wancheng, the generals of each department did receive Cao Cao's order and sent these

The order was passed on, and the generals of each department were sure that the soldiers below would not strictly follow the requirements. After conquering a city, for some soldiers, it meant that they would get a huge amount of wealth. Although the common people did not have

With too much information, they can still get a lot by accumulating little. This matter is usually ignored by the generals in the army. After all, siege is a psychologically huge task for ordinary soldiers in the army.

Torture, they need to vent.

This time, it was clear that Cao Cao was serious and directly executed hundreds of soldiers.

This was also done deliberately by Cao Cao. He wanted the soldiers and civilians in Jingzhou to see that Cao Cao's army had done nothing wrong with the city they had conquered. When they first attacked Xuzhou, the massacre of Xuzhou soldiers and civilians was more due to Cao Cao's anger. But now Cao Cao is...

There have been great changes. If you want to fundamentally shake Jingzhou, you must give yourself some advantages. After all, Xiangyang is the nominal capital at this time.

In terms of military strength, Cao Jun has a huge advantage. If the soldiers and civilians in Jingzhou can feel that they will not be harmed after joining Cao Jun, they will choose to surrender without hesitation when faced with a life or death decision.

The surrendered Jingzhou soldiers selected elite soldiers for the generals to join the army. Cao Cao began to plan for Xiangyang. After Wancheng was captured, Xiangyang was in sight. Compared with Wancheng, Xiangyang's city was more solid.

There will be more defenders, but Cao Cao has absolute confidence to break Xiangyang. This is the confidence brought by crushing strength.

More than a hundred army lieutenants were beheaded outside the city, which immediately increased Cao Cao's prestige in Wancheng. The people walking on the streets no longer had the initial panic in their expressions. When facing Cao Jun's soldiers, they showed a trace of fear.

The color of trust.

After the news of Wancheng's defeat reached Xiangyang, Xiangyang City suddenly fell into panic. Jingzhou has been at peace for a long time. Although there have been conflicts with Sun Ce and Cao Cao, the war has never reached Xiangyang, which also gave Jingzhou's

The military and civilians felt a sense of stability.

When Cao Cao's army broke through Wancheng and pointed directly at Xiangyang, not only the people, but also the aristocratic families in the city were shocked. Cao Cao used tyrannical means to directly break through Wancheng, which surprised them and made them learn more at the same time.

thoughts.

Liu Qi even denounced Cao Cao in the court hall, but the officials in the court saw Liu Qi's fear from such actions.

Zhuge Liang frowned. He used to be calm and relaxed, but after Wancheng was conquered, he turned serious. According to Zhuge Liang's plan, Wancheng's military strength was enough to withstand Cao's army for three months, or even half a year, and these three months

Months are enough for him to do a lot of things. Now the troops from the four counties in Jingnan are mobilizing to Xiangyang. After Liu Bei stabilizes Yizhou, he will also send a large army. By then, even if Jingzhou is in crisis, he will be able to stand up

In an invincible position, Wancheng's early defeat made everything unknown.

"Send the order for Sun Qian to come." Zhuge Liang said.

In Zhuge Liang's view, the most important thing at present is not only to resist Cao Jun's attack, but also to face the huge threat from Jiangdong. Sun Ce is an ambitious man. Will he lose this opportunity to attack Jingzhou? What Zhuge Liang has to do The most important thing is to persuade Sun Ce to join forces. As long as Sun Ce can be persuaded, Jingzhou can mobilize more troops to defend Cao Cao.

The most powerful force in Jingzhou was the navy, which numbered more than 20,000 at this time. If the more than 20,000 navy troops defending Jiangdong were mobilized to Xiangyang, there would be no need to worry about repelling Cao's army.

"Gongyou, now that Cao's army has conquered Wancheng, Xiangyang has been shaken, and the troops in Jiangdong are mobilizing frequently, I'm afraid they have the intention to invade Jingzhou. If Gongyou is allowed to go to Jiangdong, will he have the confidence to persuade Sun Ce?" Zhuge Liang said.

Sun Qian hesitated for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "I will do my best."

Zhuge Liang said: "If Sun Ce agrees to the alliance, the land of Jiaozhou will belong to Sun Ce. Not only that, the imperial court will also confer Zhou Yu as the Mu of Xuzhou. Go ahead."

"Here." Sun Qian cupped his hands and said. He knew that in order to resist Cao Jun, Jingzhou paid a lot this time. Although it was only in name, it gave Jiangdong Army righteous support when they attacked Jiaozhou and Xuzhou. , Sun Ce not only coveted Jingzhou, but also had thoughts about Xuzhou.

Let us say that after Sun Qian received the order, he rushed to Jiangdong overnight.

Sun Ce was not too surprised by the arrival of the Jingzhou envoy. After Wancheng was captured, the situation in Jingzhou had become precarious.

"Gong Jin, why did Jingzhou send an envoy this time?" Sun Ce asked.

"My lord, now that Jingzhou is in danger, Zhuge Liang must want to unite with Jiangdong to resist Cao's army." Zhou Yu said slowly.

"In Gongjin's opinion, what should we do?"

Zhou Yu was silent for a long time and said: "My lord, Cao Cao has led one hundred thousand troops to attack Jingzhou. I'm afraid his plan is not trivial. If he defeats the Jingzhou army and gathers the Jingzhou navy, Cao Cao's army will have the strength to attack Jiangdong. If so, , then Jiangdong will be in danger."

Sun Ce's face changed slightly, and he snorted coldly: "Cao Cao is an ambitious man. He attacks the imperial court and dares to invade Jiangdong. The Jingzhou navy is nothing to worry about. If Cao Cao dares to invade Jiangdong, I will let Cao Jun see Jiangdong. The navy is so powerful."

In the land battle, the Jiangdong Army's strength may be inferior to that of the princes. However, in the battle on the river, Sun Ce was confident of defeating Cao Cao. Among Cao Cao's troops, 90% of the soldiers were not able to swim. Once they reached the river, their combat effectiveness would be reduced. It's good to have the usual four achievements, but Cao Jun has no experience in fighting on the river, so it is very likely to fail.

What worries Sun Ce is the navy in Jingzhou. Once Cao Cao gets the navy in Jingzhou, as Zhou Yu said, it can threaten the security of Jiangdong. Today's Jiangdong seems to be monolithic, but in fact it is not the case. There are many families in Jiangdong. If Jiangdong is on the weaker side, these aristocratic families may have more ideas.

Just like the aristocratic families in Jingzhou at this time, when faced with the choice of life and death, they are likely to seek refuge with Cao Cao.
