Chapter 464
Liu Bei's defeat shocked the world. It was a heavy blow to Cao Cao, but it was a good thing to Sima Yi, because in this way he could realize his strategy of attacking Japan, but now Cao Cao He is very guarded against him, and he still has to hide his power for the time being. On the other hand, he is also secretly making friends with Cao Pi, Cao Cao's successor.
For Liu He, this was actually expected. Although he didn't know when Liu Bei would be defeated, he had already made preparations in all aspects.
Just after the news of Liu Bei's defeat came, Zhang Xiu, governor of Jingzhou, according to Liu He's prior arrangement, immediately ordered Xu Huang to lead his troops to rob the Jiangbei part of Badong, Yidu, and Jianping counties. These three counties were occupied by Liu Bei. After Berkshire was separated, it originally belonged to a part of Berkshire. Now Liu He has occupied these three counties, which can be regarded as completely blocking Zhou Yu's road from Jiangling to attack Shuzhong along the water and land routes. When the news came, he was very angry. Zhou Yu almost vomited blood, and immediately clamored to lead his troops to take back the three counties, but was persuaded by Sun Quan.
"Gong Jin, now is not the time for us to fight a decisive battle with Liu He. Once the war breaks out, we will fight against Liu Bei and Liu He at the same time. At that time, even if we have rivers and natural dangers, we will eventually be defeated. So, now we The most important thing to do is to expand the results of the war, occupy the entire Jiaozhou, and try our best to seize the land of Yizhou. Even if we occupy one more county, this is our gain, which can represent a large amount of taxes and soldiers."
Sun Quan's purpose was obvious, to avoid war with Liu He as much as possible, and at the same time, take advantage of the great victory to quickly expand the results, occupy Liu Bei's land, accumulate wealth, and lay the foundation for the next expansion.
Another counselor, Zhuge Jin, urged Sun Quan to say: "Master, although Liu Xuande was defeated, he still has a considerable amount of power in Yizhou, and the people's hearts have not been lost. It will take a huge price to completely capture Yizhou. The price is definitely not what we want to see. Therefore, the lower official suggested that we should try to avoid restraint as much as possible now, and it is best to be tolerant, so as to try to turn the enemy into an ally again, and the two sides form an alliance to resist Liu He. This Liu He is now However, after seizing large tracts of land in Yuzhou and Yanzhou, only Xuzhou and Qingzhou in the south of the river are left in the whole north. Under such circumstances, it is much more useful to win over one more ally than simply occupying the other party’s land.”
However, Zhuge Jin's good words were not heeded by Sun Quan and Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu sneered and said: "At the beginning, the three-party alliance between us and Cao Cao was not enough to defeat Liu He's army, let alone a disabled Liu Beihe." Half disabled Cao Cao? For us now, there is only one way to fight against Liu He, and that is to take all the land in the south of the Yangtze River, rely on the danger of the river, and compete with Liu He, while slowly developing internal affairs , improve strength, hehe, to tell you the truth, we have also learned the production technology of making Quyuanli and other agricultural tools, plus a large number of people who moved from the north because of the war, and the assimilation of barbarians we learned from Liu He With the methods and means, in just another ten years, the entire Jiangnan area can be built into the granary of the world."
Sun Quan nodded and agreed with Zhou Yu's words, so he appointed Zhou Yu as the prefect of Nanjun and ordered him to guard Jiangling. , Take a boat from Jiangling to Wuling, and then attack Bajun in Yizhou through Wuling, and then attack Jiangyang and Qianwei, advance to CD, and completely wipe out Liu Bei's forces.
Sun Quan's course of action was quickly put into practice, and the news was quickly sent to Liu He by spies.
"My lord, now that Sun Quan has seized Liu Bei's land of Yizhou with all his strength, shall we continue to expand our victories and attack CD from Padang?" Hearing the news that Sun Quan launched an all-out attack, Xu Chu was even more anxious to kill the enemy and make contributions because he had just surrendered. , quickly said to Liu He.
But Liu He said with a smile: "Don't be busy, hey, although Sun Quan looks like a mighty soldier and has the prestige of victory, it is not easy to occupy Yizhou. Don't forget, there is another Zhuge Liang, and Zhang Fei, as long as we cooperate with each other, Sun Quan will not be able to break CD even with an army of [-]. Do you still remember the stone formation that Zhuge Liang set up at the foot of Dingjun Mountain? Not to mention, That stone formation alone can make Zhou Yu helpless, so this time Sun Quan can at most take down the southern part of Yizhou, and even Berkshire may not be able to capture it, so the weakening of Liu Bei's strength is very limited, and for Yizhou In the southern counties, there is no difference between whether you want it or not, those places are wild tribes, the local barbarians are savage and fierce, and they don’t accept the king’s transformation, Sun Quan needs to spend a lot of energy to get those places.”
"Then what should we do? Is it possible to watch Sun Quan grow stronger and remain indifferent?" Xu Chu was still a little anxious about this, and asked.
But Liu He smiled mysteriously and said lightly: "You will know soon. Sometimes it is more useful to retain an opponent than to destroy it. Now that Sun Quan is attacking Liu Bei's Yizhou, the conflict between them will never end. , wouldn’t it be nice for us to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight? Hehe, both Zhou Yu and Sun Quan really underestimated the potential of the Shu army, and by the time they woke up, it was too late. "
"But..." Xu Chu was still confused and couldn't help but want to speak.
But Pei Yuanshao quietly pulled the corner of Xu Chu's clothes, winked, and whispered in his ear: "Second brother Xu, you don't know, my lord, he always predicts the enemy's opportunity first, and likes to use those tricks that kill without blood. The method, you should still remember the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao finally defeated Yuan Shao, but in the end Hebei became the lord’s pocket, since the lord is not going to take the opportunity to seize Yizhou, then he must have other ideas, you just Just don't worry, under the lord's account, we don't have to worry about no military exploits to gain, especially in the lord's personal barracks, we often do the tough battles."
"Haha, what Pei Yuanshao said is right, Zhongkang, you can just rest assured, the military exploits will definitely make you soft, but not now, even if we earn military exploits, we must try our best to do it without damaging our strength." , and now the competition between Sun Quan and Liu Bei is an opportunity, I want to design them to fight to the death, and I just need to cheer for them." Liu He patted Xu Chu on the shoulder and said mysteriously .
"Come on and shout, what does this mean?" Xu Chu looked at Pei Yuanshao with a puzzled expression on his face.
Pei Yuanshao also spread his hands at this time and shook his head, saying that he didn't know what was going on?However, he smiled and said: "This kind of thing is definitely not something that a rough man like us can figure out. It is up to the lord and those military advisers to come up with the idea. Our task is mainly to take up the sword and kill the enemy, so these years I I don’t even bother to think about it, as long as I follow the Lord’s order, it’s always right.”
