Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 164 Soochow is in danger

"Is this kid Ma Su getting rich?"

Zhuge Liang took the battle report that Ma Su sent back from Jingnan, with surprise in his eyes.

He believed that Ma Su would definitely give him some surprises, but he didn't expect such a big surprise. Not only did the Wuling barbarians, who had not been very cooperative before, send heavy troops to support, they also appeased the Jingnan counties.

If we work together, we can at least have more than 10,000 troops. The garrison of Soochow in Guiyang, Changsha, and Lingling counties was almost emptied.

Calculating this, Ma Su has snatched back most of Jingnan.

"This kid Ma Su... always gives me some unexpected surprises." Zhuge Liang showed a faint smile on his lips, feeling somewhat contented for a moment.

It has been many years since he heard any surprises from people below. And every time Ma Su travels, he can bring results far beyond expectations.

"I didn't expect that General Ma seemed to have enlightened himself after joining the army and changing his job." Deng Zhi read it carefully and showed a look of surprise.

The formation cut down the steps, captured Mi Fang, and defeated the main force of Soochow, forcing the famous general Ding Feng to occupy the city and defend it. With just a few words, he won over the barbarians in Wuling and made the soldiers in Guiyang, Lingling mutiny.

This is no longer making a small fortune, this is becoming a nouveau riche!

"With his military exploits, General Ma will have no problem taking up the post of General of the Four Expeditions and Four Towns directly."

"Hey, hey, don't praise this kid, something will happen if you praise him!" Zhuge Liang was suddenly startled, and quickly waved his hand and said to Deng Zhi.

"When we were in Xi County, I praised him a few times and asked him to fight Chencang. But... Li Yan died early."

Zhuge Liang knows Ma Su relatively well, and this kid will definitely cause you trouble if he raises his tail.

This time, the hussar general and the governor of Yongzhou, Li Yan, was killed. Zhuge Liang couldn't even think about who he would kill if he made trouble again this time.

"But it's time to let him come back. If we continue to fight, Cao Wei will really be unable to sit still." Zhuge Liang pondered for a while and began to think about the next step.

On the front, Lu Xun fought with Zhuge Liang for five months, which was considered his peak performance. But in general, Lu Xun was still a little behind in military strategy.

When Zhuge Liang confronted you for five months, he was dividing his troops to build mountain roads and hold back his big move. Lu Xun had been in a stalemate for five months, and he had not prepared any other backup plans.

I'm waiting for the ultimate CD, what are you waiting for?

Waiting to die?

As a result, Lu Xun couldn't even be a bastard in the end, and the bastard's shell was shattered by Zhuge Liang's punch. Now the Shu army is advancing by land and water, and is about to reach Jiangling.

But here, it’s time to stop!

If the fight continues, I'm afraid Sun Quan will be finished. If Cao Wei takes the opportunity to steal Yangzhou, the loss outweighs the gain for the Shu Han.

In fact, Zhuge Liang is already very worried about Cao Wei's movements.

Cao Xiu stationed 100,000 troops in Hefei and gathered tens of thousands more troops in Shouchun. When Zhuge Liang was preparing to launch the final blow against Lu Xun, Cao Xiu had already launched his troops to attack Ruxuwu.

Speaking of laying the groundwork, Soochow, the ally, will always be the most uncertain link in Zhuge Liang's strategy. If you ignore him, he might turn around and stab you. But if you don't let him go, he will really die for you to see...

What a headache!

"Send someone to ask Ma Di to lead the troops back and deliver the troops. I will send someone to move the population in Jingnan. All the people in Guiyang, Lingling, and Changsha should move to Wuling County." Zhuge Liang thought for a while and quickly made a decision the next step of deployment. However, during the changes in the plan, Deng Zhi keenly discovered the differences.

"Prime Minister, what do you think...Wuling County can't be occupied?" Deng Zhi squinted his eyes and asked after thinking for a while.

"Ma Di has almost finished recruiting the four counties of Jingnan. It would be inappropriate to abandon Jingnan altogether." Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, waved his feather fan and looked at the map of Jingzhou, his eyes full of satisfaction and joy.

Zhuge Liang originally planned that it would be good if Jingnan could gather tens of thousands of households back. This population has been gathered into Shuzhong, and there is still room for resettlement in Hanzhong and Yizhou.

But now that Jingnan has taken back most of it, it can recruit more people. Shu Land cannot accommodate such a large population, but it would be a shame to give up in vain.

The Prime Minister never makes a loss-making business, and no one can let Shu Han lose money!

So Zhuge Liang quickly changed his plan and decided to keep Wuling County, which was protected by mountains. The main population of Jingnan was moved to tuntian in Wuling County, and soldiers and horses were stationed to guard Wuling.

In this way, Yidao and other Yangtze River passes will be protected by horns, which is obviously more stable than the original plan.

Moreover, Wuling County has a dangerous terrain, but its territory is not large. Zhuge Liang doesn't need high-level talents to be in charge, just leave a general to guard it.

"The Prime Minister is wise." Deng Zhi smiled and said with cupped hands.

Zhuge Liang shook his head and didn't care about it. He picked up the government affairs again and said.

"But before that, I need to go to Soochow alone to clarify the pros and cons with Sun Quan. Sun Quan is stupid. If we don't express our attitude, Soochow will probably be in chaos."

"Bo Miao, are you up to this task?"

"How dare you disobey your orders?" Deng Zhi cupped his hands and accepted the order.

The last time he was in Jianye, he was kicked out without scolding him. Deng Zhi has always been worried about it. Now that the Shu army is on the verge of victory, he wants to see who dares to chase him away this time!

Zhuge Liang's guess is correct. If you don't let him go to Soochow, Sun Quan will really die for you.

The news of Lu Xun's defeat in Yi Dao spread, and soon everyone in Soochow was in panic.

At the same time, Cao Xiu's attack at Ruxuwu became more and more fierce. Lu Fan could not resist and sent envoys one after another to ask for help from Sun Quan.

Sun Quan was staying in Wuchang at this time and was preparing to go to Jiangling to supervise the battle in person. Unexpectedly, Lu Xun's defeat was too sudden, and Sun Quan could only lead 20,000 Wu soldiers to temporarily station in Wuchang.

Of course, to be honest, Sun Quan himself is Soochow's biggest flaw. After Cao Wei found out that Sun Quan was in Wuchang, Shouchun's Wei army came out in full force and headed straight for Wuchang.

As Ruxuwu was in crisis, Wuchang was besieged, and Lu Xun asked for help from the front... Soochow became the target of concentrated fire in just half a year.

In Wuchang City, Sun Quan was listening to Taichang Gu Yong's report with a gloomy expression.

"Supreme, these are the battle reports submitted from everywhere. From now on, we are under siege from all sides. Jiangling, Ruxuwu, Jingnan, and even Jiaozhou! There are wars everywhere."

"This is the battle report from below. Generally speaking, there is not much good news!" Minister Gu Yong said slowly and handed a roll of bamboo slips to Sun Quan.

Sun Quan looked down, raised his eyebrows and asked.

"only these?"

"No, Your Majesty, this is a good news for Yuzhang County in encircling and suppressing the Shanyue people." Gu Yong shook his head, and then asked the scribe to place a large stack of bamboo slips on Sun Quan's table with a clang.

"This is the military report of an urgent defeat on the front line."

Looking at the bamboo slips in front of him that were taller than him, Sun Quan's expression gradually stiffened.

"Soochow is in danger!"
