Chapter 611 Jiangxia Water War
After receiving the news that Lv Bu was about to send troops to Jiangxia, Liu Bei quickly summoned the generals to discuss and said, "Lv Bu's death is not dead. Before his forefoot has a foot established himself in Jingzhou, his back foot has sent troops to our Jiangxia. How do you think we should deal with it?"
"Lv Bu boy, it's so rampant. I'm willing to lead the troops to fight and kill him unprepared." As soon as Liu Bei finished speaking, Zhang Fei, who was beside him, stood up and said anxiously. These days, Zhang Fei has been running away blindly. Zhang Fei has been full of resentment. At this time, when he heard the attack of Lv Bu's army, he naturally had to take a good breath of anger in his heart.
"Mr. Shan Fu, now Mr. Zhuge has gone to Eastern Wu. Mr. is the most knowledgeable among us. Please give me advice." Liu Bei ignored Zhang Fei's clamor at all. He turned around and looked at Shan Fu aside and asked.
"Now that Lv Bu is strong, our army's strength is weak, but we should not hit the stone with the egg. However, if our army wants to unite with Eastern Wu, it needs to show the strength of our army so that it will not be looked down on by the Eastern Wu. Therefore, I think that we should not only fight in this battle, but also fight well." Seeing that Lou was asked about himself, Shan Fu said meaningfully.
"Ha ha, Shan Fu's military division still has vision, just like what I thought." Hearing Shan Fu's words, Zhang Fei said happily.
"I also have this intention, but Lv Bu is not a good one. It's not easy to win this battle. How can we win the beauty?" Liu Bei is not as optimistic as Zhang Fei. Since Lv Bu sent troops, he will never send food to himself, so if he wants to defeat these soldiers, he needs to make considerable efforts.
"Jiangxia is remote and the road is difficult to pass, so there is no need to worry too much about Zhang He's 20,000 troops. As long as we guard the pass, we will not worry about it. What is important is Cai Mao's navy. Cai Mao has been in charge of the navy in Jingzhou for many years. He has a lot of experience in the training and combat of the navy. This battle must be a tough battle. I think of Lv Bu and let Cai Mao lead the navy. I also want to see Cai Mao's ability. However, this also gives us a chance. If Cai Mao can be killed in this battle, the Lv Bu's navy will lose a general, which will be a great thing for our Sun Liu allied forces. Therefore, my subordinates suggest asking for help from the Eastern Wu and converging the strength of the two armies in order to completely annihilate Cai Mao's navy. Shan Fu said seriously.
"Sun Quan is just a yellow-mouthed child. How can he have such insight? What's more, he just killed a small Cai Mao. If he needs the help of Dongwu soldiers and horses, where will our army go?" At this time, Guan Yu, who was beside him, said against it. Obviously, he was not optimistic about the idea of proposing to unite with the Dongwu Water Army to attack Cai Mao.
"Sand Fu's military division also said that this is the time when our army shows its strength to Eastern Wu, so I don't think it's necessary to ask for help from Eastern Wu." At this time, Liu Bei also said, "I just don't know if Mr. Shan Fu has any other way to defeat Cai Mao?"
"If we can unite with Eastern Wu, we can defeat Cai Mao on the water. Then after Lv Bu knows it, he is likely to abolish Cai Mao's position as the governor of water army. If we don't unite with Eastern Wu, the strength of our water army is really not enough to fight with Cai Mao's 20,000 water army. It can only be said that Cai Mao leads him to the shore to make another decision. Not long after Cai Mao surrendered to Lv Bu, he was eager for success. It would not be a troublesome thing to lead Cai Mao ashore. Shan Fu thought for a while, and then said.
The news of Lv Bu's attack fell to Eastern Wu. Lu Su hurriedly went to Zhou Yu and said, "Captain, Lv Bu sent troops to attack Jiangxia. I'm afraid that Jiang Xia has something wrong. It's better to send reinforcements to help, so that after Lv Bu destroys Liu Bei, we can't help alone."
"Ha ha ha, Lu Su thinks too much. It's true that Lv Bu is our enemy, but isn't Liu Bei our enemy? As long as there is a master in the world, it is enough. Other people are just chess pieces that can be used in time. Liu Bei wants to use us to deal with Lv Bu in order to make profits from it. Isn't we taking advantage of Liu Bei? Since Lv Bu wants to deal with Liu Bei, why don't we take advantage of fishermen, but participate in it? Hearing Lu Su's words, Zhou Yu laughed. Obviously, he didn't care about Lu Su's words.
"I don't know what the governor is going to do?" Lu Su listened to Zhou Yu's words. Although he felt that it was not appropriate, it was not easy to refute, so he asked Zhou Yu's plan to see if there was anything else that could be saved.
"Didn't Zhuge Liang say last time that Lv Bu's navy should be eliminated before we can be invincible? This time, Cai Mao went to attack Jiangxia. We happened to take this opportunity to rob Lv Bu's water village. After taking down Lv Bu's water village, we will go to Jiangxia to destroy the water army led by Cai Mao by the way. In this way, the group fighting army will be invincible. Zhou Yu introduced with a smile.
"The governor is really calculating, but didn't the governor think about it. Isn't Lv Bu's water army more than those in Cai Mao and Zhang Yun's hands?" At this time, the sound came from outside the door, and then a figure dressed in white scribes and holding a feather fan appeared not far away. It was Zhuge Liang. It turned out that Zhuge Liang had also arrived at Zhou Yu's mansion at this time.
"Ha ha, Mr. Zhuge is talking about Lv Bu's blue flag and the blue flag navy. Zhou Yu, the famous of these two water armies, has naturally heard of them, but he knows that these two water armies have been deeply hidden by Lv Bu from the beginning. I'm afraid they haven't fought much so far, so that anyone who hasn't smelled blood can also be called a water army? Hearing Zhuge Liang mention Lv Bu's other sailors, Zhou Yu said carelessly.
"Ha ha, the water army with the blue flag and the blue flag, we really don't know what the combat effectiveness is, but the governor of Zhou wants to attack Lv Bu's water village. Aren't you afraid that the water army with the blue flag or the blue flag will attack the water village of the big governor?" Zhuge Liang did not argue with Zhou Yu, but raised another question.
"What should I do with Mr. Zhuge's intention?" After listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Zhou Yu couldn't help hesitating and asked.
"Since Lv Bu wants to take Jiangxia, why don't we set up an ambush in Jiangxia to make Lv Bu avoid it?" Zhuge Liang said with a smile.
"Haha, let's talk about it. Mr. Zhuge is still worried about Liu Bei. He thinks that Liu Bei can't deal with Cai Mao. This is not like Mr. Zhuge's style. It's really a little disappointing. Hearing the meaning of Zhuge Liang's words, Zhou Yu said sarcastically.
"Ha ha, Cai Mao's skin is not good enough. Some of his sailors can only salvage shrimps on the Yangtze River. I don't take it to heart. What I'm worried about is Pang Tong. Lv Bu's Xun Yu is an old and important person, and he will definitely not intang Lv Bu to send troops to Jiangxia. Although Guo Jia is known as a ghost talent and has great wisdom, his wisdom is more strategic than tactics, and he will not care about Jiangxia, which has no strategic value. Only Pang Tong has always wanted to compete with me for a while. If I guess correctly, it was Pang Tong who came up with the idea to attack Jiangxia this time, and wanted to take advantage of Lv Bu. If you don't have a chance to fight, you have to fight with me. For Zhou Yu's statement, Zhuge Liang just shook his hand and then said what he thought in his heart.
"Are you talking about Pang Tong, who is known as the phoenix chick? I have heard that this man is an official in Wancheng. Is this rumor true? Hearing Pang Tong's name, Zhou Yu couldn't help asking with a deep face.
"Yes, it's this person. If I guess correctly, this person will definitely go with Cai Mao this time. That's why I hope that the governor can lead the navy to attack Cai Mao's navy." At this time, Zhuge Liang also said with a serious expression.
"If there is this person in Cai Mao's navy, it's really worth my action." Half of the time, Zhou Yu nodded and said.
On this day, the flags on the Yangtze River made up for it, and a warship full of sergeants posed on the Yangtze River and headed in the direction of Jiangxia.
In a building in the line of ships, Cai Mao was standing in the bow of the ship, looking at the direction of Jiangxia.
"Is the general worried about this battle?" At this time, a man came out and stood behind Cai Mao and said.
"I also dreamed of being able to gallop on the battlefield as an officer, but my life over the years is too comfortable, and I'm already a little unfamiliar with this kind of war." In the face of Pang Tong's question, Cai Mao said the truth.
"General, don't worry. Liu Bei's soldiers and horses are mainly infantry. Only a little Jiangxia water army under the original Xiahou Dun can not be the general's opponent." Seeing that Cai Mao was a little worried, Pang Tong couldn't help but persuade him.
"Sir, you don't have to lie to me. If it's so simple, why does the regent have to send 20,000 sailors? Why does he have to come in person?" Cai Mao smiled and said.
"Hahaha, I can't see that the general is a careful person. In this battle, as long as the general's navy does not climb the river bank of Jiangxia, even if the general can't win on the Yangtze River, there is no problem to escape." Seeing that Cai Mao was still a little worried, Pang Tong said half jokingly.
"Ha ha, it seems that your husband is also a little nervous. Although Cai Mao is incompetent, it is difficult to take my life on the Yangtze River. Don't worry, Mr. Cai Mao will naturally keep you safe with me." Hearing what Pang Tong said, Cai Mao thought that Pang Tong had the same worries as himself, so he said with a smile.
At this moment, a sailor appeared in front of him. At first, a general stood in the bow with a long knife, and his long beard fluttered in the wind. This person was not someone else but Guan Yu.
"Ha ha, although Guan Yu is a hero, his personal force may not play much role in the war on the Yangtze River." Seeing Guan Yu coming to fight in person, Cai Mao waved to the ship behind him with a smile, and then a soldier called out a flag and spread Cai Mao's order.
"Brothers, the enemy is strong, let's withdraw." Seeing that Cai Mao sent troops, Guan Yu did not take the battle and directly ordered his sailors to retreat.
