Chapter 459 Jingnan Siding
"Mr. Fu, you almost ruined your reputation for life."
Huan Jie quickly walked to Zhang Xian, bent down, and held Zhang Xian's hand and said : "Your Majesty can tell that Sun Bofu has a brave and decisive personality and is extremely strong and strong. Although he is young, he dares to regard the heroes of the world as nothing. He crossed Jiangdong, defeated Liu Yao, destroyed Xu Gong, and defeated Wang Lang. In a year, Jiangdong bowed his head .”
“Ming Gong can tell how he will be under General Zuo now?”
Huan Jie’s question not only made Zhang Xian feel curious, but even Zhang Yi on the side was also very It's strange.
After Huan Jie saw that he attracted the attention of the two, he then trayed Sun Ce's encounter in Jiangdong. "The Lord of the Wu County is tall and deep, with sufficient soldiers and food, but he can't defend the left for a season. Sun Bofu is brave and good at fighting. Who doesn't know about Linxiang in the past few months? Who doesn't know who is? Don't know?"
Huan Jie asked with a serious expression: "But Sun Bofu's battle in Qiantang was wiped out, and he was saved by himself. After fleeing to Shanyin County, he had no choice but to open the city to surrender One way to go. The Duke thinks Linxiang is much stronger than Wuxian? How brave is Linxiang's soldiers as strong as Sun Ce's elite troops?"
Huan Jie's words were like big bells, shaking at the Zhang Xian and his son's Beside the ears.
The two of them, as Huan Jie said, couldn't help but change it, and they suddenly felt cold and frightened.
Linxiang is just between Bo Zhong and Wu County. Liu Feng can conquer Wu County in two months, so he can take over Linxiang, not to mention that Linxiang's guards are really no match for Sun Ce's troops. "Ming Gong, don't forget that General Zuo's father is the General of the Cavalry, and he is the Minister of State, but he has the right to be a deputy to the political affairs." Huan Jie finally reminded him. : "We are fighting against Liu Biao in order to comply with the orders of the emperor and the court and to help with the rebellion. But if we change to the Yangzhou army, it would be a violation of the court and would be beaten to become a traitor."
Zhang Xian and Zhang Yi were shocked. After thinking about it carefully, it was as Huan Jie said. Besides, the most important problem is that they have the confidence to persevere in the four counties in Jingnan to resist Liu Biao.
But if it were replaced by Yangzhou Army, there would be no confidence.
Zhang Xian glanced at his son Zhang Yi. After Huan Jie said so much in his heart, he must have had some intentions. Therefore, he waved his hand to his son: "Yi'er, please retreat first. If you have important things for your father, you must be with Duke Huan." Discussed."
Zhang Yi was unwilling to follow, but Zhang Xian was very persistent and had no choice but to leave.
After Zhang Yi left, Zhang Xian wanted to speak, but suddenly coughed violently.
When Huan Jie saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward to stroke Zhang Xian's back, but he was caught by Zhang Xian.
"Boxu, are you here to persuade me to surrender to Liu?"
Zhang Xian stared at Huan Jie with his eyes fixed on him. Although his body was still coughing, his eyes were burning, not like a patient at all.
Huan Jie's heart tightened, but then he relaxed again.
He ignored the left wrist that was tightly grasped by Zhang Xian, and his right hand still smoothed the other party's cough, and then replied: "The emperor's surname is Liu, the world's surname is Liu, and the Ming Duke is Changsha County, which was appointed by the imperial court. Shou, how can you say surrender to Liu Yi? "
Zhang Xian looked at Huan Jie calmly, but Huan Jie looked at him fearlessly.
After a moment, Huan Jie asked first: "Ming Gong, with your merits and fame, you will definitely have the position of nine ministers when you enter the court, and you can eliminate the wars for Jingnan. Why not That's it? ”
Zhang Xian's heart moved, and he actually knew that as today, he only had one county, and the other three counties would follow him, one was because of his fame, and the other was also needed to resist Liu Biao, Jingbei.
He, the lord of Jingnan, is illegal. Not only does he have no legal basis, but he also has no imperial edicts from the court.
Now that the Jingbei Army has retreated, the other three counties will naturally no longer continue to respect Zhang Xian. Now, the powerful Linxiang gentry headed by the Huan rank are now here to persuade them to surrender to Liu Feng, and Zhang Xian's already unstrong ambitions have been extinguished.
"Is there really a position as the Nine Ministers?"
"Be serious!"
Huan Jie looked sure. Although he was lying at this moment, in terms of Huan Jie, if Liu Zisheng was the only one who was the nine ministers to be exchanged for the four counties in Jingnan, he would refuse.
Zhang Xian sighed, and after a moment, he spoke again: "Boxu, can you bother with you?"
"What is the order of Ming Gong? Jie will never refuse!"
< br>Huan Jie still felt guilty about Zhang Xian. Although he persuaded Zhang Xian to surrender, he did have his own selfish intentions, but after weighing the pros and cons, he chose to have a better result for Zhang Xian.
Zhang Xian whispered: "I heard that although Liu Zisheng is young, he is a talented person in the world. I want Ziming to serve him. I wonder if Boxu can accomplish this for me?"
Huan Jie suddenly realized in his heart that Zhang Xian felt that the position of the Nine Ministers was not enough to repay the merits or insurance, so he wanted to bargain.
So, he agreed without hesitation and asked for the order, "Don't worry about it, you must do this matter personally."
Huan Jie made up his mind secretly. Try your best to win a good treatment for Zhang Yi. Not to mention the other side, since Liu Feng has started a war with Liu Biao, there is a high probability that Nanyang will win it in the future. At that time, it may be possible to win a position as a filial and honest person for Zhang Yi.
Even if Nanyang cannot be restored for the time being, as long as he can get the position of governor of Jingzhou or governor of Jingzhou, he still has the right to recommend Zhang Yi.
The worst is that Liu Feng's father Liu Bei was the General of the Cavalry. These three generals can also recommend one person as a talented person and two as a filial and honest person every year.
Huan Jie is probably quite sure about this, but he doesn't mention it at this time and wants to give Zhang Xian a surprise.
Zhang Xian received a satisfactory answer. He was also a decisive and stern person. He immediately expressed his opinion: "Since this is the case, the chief clerk can send someone to Baqiu to meet the left general. Xian is already old. Old, he was sick and wanted to entrust him to a county in Changsha. He also asked General Zuo not to dislike him."
Huan Jie was overjoyed and immediately agreed.
**
Sun Ce only spent half a day to select five thousand elite soldiers. Each of them only brought seven days of food, so he hurried north to chase after him, fearing that he would let Kuai Yue's troops go away . The subsequent food and grass supply was entrusted to Huan Jie for management.
It can be said that if something goes wrong with Huanjie here, Sun Ce will probably have to cut off food and grass.
However, it was precisely because Sun Ce dared to take risks and traveled forty or fifty miles a day and forced himself to chase after three days, then he caught up with the tail of the Jingbei Army on the south bank of Dongting Lake.
Liu Hu was ordered to take the water route, but in fact he had become the descendant of the entire army.
He tried to lead the navy to break through twice, but all of them were driven back by Zhou Tai, and he also lost dozens of warships and hundreds of soldiers.
He had no choice but to decide to burn the warship, walk on the south bank of Dongting Lake, and chase Kuai Yue.
But what Liu Hu didn't expect was that Sun Ce happened to catch up at this time, and just cut off Liu Hu's way.
When Zhou Tai received the news, he was rushing into the Hunan River with his navy, passing Baqiu and not entering, and chasing Liu Hu.
The three parties fought a battle in Dongting Hunan.
Liu Hu's retreat speed was not slow, and he retreated from both water and land. Unfortunately, Sun Ce found out the movements of the Jingbei Army and accurately set up a camp on the road to block the attack.
Although Liu Hu's headquarters was elite, Sun Jian's old subordinate was not weak soldiers.
Liu Hu joined the most elite spear team under his command and attacked Sun Ce camp.
It was just that Sun Jian's old subordinates, with Sun Ce's encouragement, defended the camp and refused to give in.
Liu Hu attacked Sun Ce's camp for half a day. Although he broke the first line of defense, Sun Ce successfully retreated into the second-line camp with the front-line defenders and continued to hold on.
Liu Hu originally wanted to continue the attack, but at this time, the Yangzhou navy led by Zhou Tai had arrived from behind. Even if Liu Hu was commanding Liu Biao's elite troops, he would be unable to turn things around.
The next morning, the battle started again. Although the elite troops of Liu Hu fought to the death and persisted for a full four hours, they were eventually broken through by Zhou Tai and Sun Ce, causing a crushing defeat.
In this battle, Liu Hu's 5,000 long-haired team died in battle, and two thousand were seriously injured. The navy burned the warships and fought hard on the shore, and more than half of them were injured.
Liu Hu's troops were more than 10,000 people, more than 3,000 people were killed in battle, and the rest were captured. Liu Hu was seriously injured and captured. Deputy General Han Xi died in battle. In the end, more than 700 seriously injured people were unable to be treated. He died of serious injury.
In this battle, Sun Ce's troops suffered serious casualties. More than half of the five thousand people were killed in the battle. More than a thousand people died on the spot, and more than 400 people died in the battle. Fortunately, the injured were injured. Most of them can be treated, but more than 200 people died after injuries and illness.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
This battle was still a complete victory, with a casualty ratio of up to 1:5. After Zhou Tai and Sun Ce discussed it, they flew to reveal their books and passed them to Liu Feng.
As for Kuai Yue's troops, Sun Ce still wanted to pursue, but was dissuaded by Zhou Tai and Dong Xi.
Sun Ce was originally a famous general, and Dong Xi was also quite handsome. Zhou Tai was much inferior to the previous two in strategic vision, especially compared with Sun Ce, who was obviously one or two levels behind him. .
But even Zhou Tai could see that Kuai Yue and the others wanted to escape to Chanling.
Chanling is on the other side of Jiangling. As long as the navy arrives on the river surface outside Jiangling City, it can block the other party's way across the river.
At that time, the other party's situation will be better than in Baqiu. Although it has towns such as Chanling, Gong'an, Lexiang and other cities and towns, the tactical environment will be improved, and it will not be as harsh as Baqiu, surrounded by enemies from the north and south. However, the strategy has not improved, and he was unable to cross the river and returned to his important town Jiangling.
If this is the case, why bother to give up the easy and seek difficulties, give up the advantages of the navy, and pursue Kuai Yue's army from land?
Without the help of Zhou Tai, Dong Xi, Jiang Qin and others, Sun Ce had only more than 3,000 people left. If he wanted to pursue Kuai Yue's tens of thousands of troops with this little force, it would undoubtedly be It's a fool.
Helplessly, Sun Ce could only stop when he saw it.
However, he did not return to Linxiang, but took his troops to Jiangling with Zhou Tai.
**
Liu Feng was in Shaxian City at this time and received several letters of dew.
First, it came from Zhou Tai's victory report, reporting the achievements of the annihilation of Liu Hu's troops, and also reporting the speculation that Kuai Yue's troops successfully escaped and were heading to Chanling.
In the afternoon of that day, Lubu from Ganning also arrived. When Liu Feng learned that Ganning had successfully attacked Zhang Yun at night, defeated his army, and killed more than 10,000 prisoners, but only more than 2,000 casualties were killed or killed, Liu Feng immediately Just like I praised Gan Ning for a while.
Especially, when he saw Gan Ning alone, he led a few personal soldiers to take advantage of the night to get into Zhang Yun camp. He also walked around and collected various information before implementing it before dawn Then leave the camp.
Liu Feng couldn't help but exclaim, "Xingba is really brave!"
After saying that, Liu Feng suddenly remembered that this was the praise his father gave to Uncle Zilong. Why did he Blind out as soon as you say it?
Fortunately, there were no outsiders in the cabin, only a few documents.
After gathering the two letters of victory, Liu Feng thought about the next step.
Now that Zhang Yun has been broken, Zhou Yu can attack the city with all his might. I thought that although Xiakou was strong, it shouldn't last for a few days.
Moreover, it is the peak water season. Without the threat from Zhang Yun's water army, Liu Feng could even boldly go upstream. Within at least two or three months, he would not have to worry about the threat from Xiakou City to logistics ships. And two or three months is enough for Zhou Yu to take Xiakou in any case.
In this way, should we transfer one of the Feifeng Army and the Wanlan Army first, go up against the Han River and open the passage in Xiangyang?
You must know that although the Han River has been controlled by Liu Feng, it is not without obstacles to go all the way north.
The Lankouju, Zhengguocheng and Jingguocheng are all key points.
After thinking about it, Liu Feng still denied his own idea.
Zhang Yun's troops have also been eliminated, and Xiangyang's troops will inevitably be short of strength. Even if you want to replenish them, you will not be able to replenish them in a short period of time.
In this case, Liu Feng should naturally put the south first, eliminate Kuai Yue with all his strength, and take down Jiangling with all his strength.
But it was not impossible to go north to Xiangyang. After thinking about it, Liu Feng made a decision.
In the past, in order to ensure the safety of the rear route, Zhou Yu's troops divided into two counties, Qichun and Xiazhi, two thousand troops stationed in Echeng and four thousand troops stationed in Zhucheng County.
Now, only the Yangzhou navy is left on the river.
Because of Huang Zu's relationship, Xiling also opened the city to surrender two days ago. It can be said that there is no Liu Biaojun who can threaten the first-tier cities in Dajiang.
This also means that the soldiers and horses that Liu Feng had originally arranged on the back road can be mobilized.
Liu Feng immediately ordered to transfer two thousand soldiers and horses in Zhucheng, one thousand soldiers and one thousand soldiers in Echeng, one thousand soldiers in Qichun and Xiazhi, and three thousand soldiers in Xiling, a total of seven thousand soldiers to reinforce Gansu. Ning's troops ordered Gan Ning's command headquarters, Zhu Huan's troops, Chen Wu's troops and reinforcements troops to go north first, clearing the way for the army and seizing various key points along the Han River coast.
Then the order was sent to Yangzhou and ordered Jia Kui's troops to set out quickly and come to Jingzhou to listen.
At the same time, a command was also passed to Zhou Tai, ordering him to block the country and strictly order Kuai Yue to return to Jiangling. After the arrival of the Chaofeng Army and the Wanlan Army, they will land in Jiangbei and attack Jiangling first.
Now that Pang Tong has returned to Jiangling for several months, Liu Feng is not sure what the specific situation is.
But before Pang Tong left, he had already reminded the other party that things would be happy, but if things were not harmonious, he also hoped that Pang Tong could protect himself.
Especially now, there are only a few thousand soldiers in Jiangling City. Even if you add the troops of the great clan and powerful people, and the recruitment of young and strong people, you may not be able to have a number of ten thousand people.
Jiangling is a big city. Even if you want to defend the city, it is very difficult to break it.
I believe that when the Feifeng Army and the Wanlan Army arrive at the city of Jiangling, it will bring considerable help to Pang Tong.
