The Three Kingdoms become stronger when they get treasures

Chapter 62 Sun Quan Sends Troops
This time Xu Shu was even more surprised by Zhang Wu's vision, which has risen to a strategic vision, and analyzed the general trend of the world so clearly, and according to his analysis, his next step must be to control Jingzhou.

If Zhang Wu really took control of Jingzhou, it would be worth relying on, but Xu Shu felt that Zhang Wu had a difficulty to overcome.

"General Zhang really has good vision and good ambition, but General Zhang doesn't know that disaster is imminent. I think General Zhang should wait until he gets through this disaster before thinking about other things!"

Zhang Wu was stunned. What kind of disaster is coming? Are you trying to scare me?

"Why did you say this, sir? What disaster could happen to me?"

"If my predictions are correct, Cai Hao's move is probably not to disturb Cao Cao, but to the general. The general can send more people to Jiangdong to find out information."

Zhang Wu was shocked, did Jiang Dong want to beat me, Jiang Xia?I took the initiative to attack Jiangdong last year. Not only did I kill many Jiangdong soldiers, but I also captured Han Dang alive and blackmailed Sun Quan's fast sailing horse. With this kid's character, he must be looking for an opportunity to take revenge on me.At this time, Jingzhou was sending troops to attack Cao Cao, and Xiangyang also issued a special military order to keep the city well guarded, and there would be no support.

If Jiang Dong took this opportunity to attack Jiang Xia, Jiang Xia would definitely not be able to resist Jiang Dong's all-out attack with his own strength, and his troops would definitely suffer heavy losses, and maybe Cai Mao would stab him in the back.

Jiangxia County is very important to Zhang Wu now. It is the springboard for him to take Jingzhou, and he cannot abandon it and run away. Damn it, Cai Mao, you are a bitch, how dare you trick me!

Zhang Wu hurriedly bid farewell to Xu Shu, and rushed back to the general's mansion to discuss with someone. Before leaving, he ordered Xu Shu's guards to take good care of him, so as not to lack Xu Shu's living expenses.He didn't directly open his mouth to recruit Xu Shu, because he knew that Xu Shu needed to think about it, and his current power was not enough, at least he had to wait until he had hope to take over Jingzhou.

After returning to the mansion, Zhang Wu immediately sent more people to Jiangdong to inquire about the news, and at the same time ordered Gan Ning and Ding Feng to strengthen their guard.

Jiangdong, Wu County, Sun Quan is calling urgent civil and military officials to discuss.

"I want to take this opportunity to raise troops to attack Jiangxia. What do you think?" Sun Quan asked.

Zhang Zhao said: "My lord has not been in mourning for a year, so you must not use troops."

It turned out that Mrs. Wu Tai, Sun Quan's biological mother, had just died of illness, and Sun Quan was still in mourning.

Mrs. Wu Tai and Wu Guotai, who recruited Liu Bei as her son-in-law in the original book, are sisters. The two sisters married Sun Jian together. Sun Ce, Sun Quan and other brothers were born to the eldest wife, and Sun Shangxiang was born to the second wife.When Mrs. Wu died, she told Sun Quan to be filial to her sister, Sun Quan's aunt, as she was to herself, and to find a good husband for her sister Sun Shangxiang in the future.

Zhou Yu said, "Why do you need to wait for a year to avenge your hatred? That Zhang Wu killed my Jiangdong children last year, just when Liu Biao sent troops to fight Cao Cao and was unable to rescue Jiang Xia. And that Zhang Wu is very scheming and good at using people. If he is allowed to develop again In a few years, it will become a major problem for me in Jiangdong, and it should be eliminated as soon as possible."

Zhou Yu had fought against Zhang Wu and Gan Ning before, and he was indeed more difficult to deal with than Huang Zu.As soon as Zhou Yu opened his mouth, many generals called for the fight, especially Han Dang and Ling Tong, vowing to avenge their shame.

Both Cheng Pu and Huang Gai are old buddies with Han Dang, and they also support Han Dang's opinion at the moment. These Jiangdong generals have fought against Jiang Xia for more than ten years. It is really normal to start a war with Jiang Xia. They still look down on Jiang Xia in their bones .

Sun Quan remembered that his beloved Kuaihang horse had been blackmailed by Zhang Wu, and his teeth itched with hatred, so he decided to send troops.

In the autumn of the seventh year of Jian'an, in 202 A.D., Sun Quan of Jiangdong took advantage of the opportunity to send troops to Wancheng in Xiangyang, and ordered Zhou Yu to be the governor of the Great Commander. , raised troops to attack Jiangxia.

When the news reached Jiang Xia, Zhang Wu hurriedly responded. He knew that this time the matter was serious. Sun Quan personally led an army of [-] to attack.This is the first major crisis that Zhang Wu has encountered since crossing, and it is related to his life and death. If he can't cope with it, let alone take over Jingzhou and fight for hegemony in the world, it will be good if he can save his life.

Faced with such a big crisis, Zhang Wu did not panic, because he knew that the more panicked the more chaotic, the more anxious the more dangerous, he began to calmly analyze the current situation and the balance of power between the two sides.

Zhang Wu felt a little lucky that Xu Shu was captured to Jiangxia, and at this critical moment, he went to talk to Xu Shu himself. From Xu Shu's words, Zhang Wu knew that Cai Mao was behind Jiangdong's attack on Jiangxia.It was Cai Mao who suggested and contributed to Liu Biao's sending troops to attack Cao Cao, which made Jiang Dong feel that he had an opportunity.

Although Xiangyang's sending troops was a feint and a bluff, once Jiang Xia was beaten, Cai Mao would definitely not send reinforcements for various reasons. Cai Mao wanted to put Zhang Wu to death. The fundamental reason was that Liu Qi, supported by Zhang Wu, threatened the succession of Liu Cong, who was supported by Cai Mao. Jingzhou animal husbandry.

What a murderer with a borrowed knife, it seems that I have really underestimated Cai Mao, this kind of person is not good at doing business, and he is really an expert in this kind of harmful method.Isn't he afraid that Jiangxia will be captured by Jiangdong and then attack Xiangyang?Isn't he afraid that Zhang Wu will surrender when he can't resist?

Zhang Wu felt that the Xiangyang navy under Cai Mao's control must have been ready. When Jiangxia's navy was almost exhausted, he would come and take advantage. He could not only take care of Zhang Wu, but also take the opportunity to hold Jiangxia in his hands. Perhaps even Zhang Yun of the Jiangling Navy had already received instructions from Cai Mao.

If the Jiangdong army occupied Jiangxia, Cai Mao would only have to hold on to Xiangyang and Jiangling, and Sun Quan would have to retreat, because Jiangxia city was on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and Sun Quan's army alone would not be able to defend it for long.

If Zhang Wu surrenders to Jiangdong, it doesn't matter to Cai Mao, because his purpose is to cut off Liu Qi's support in the army, whether Zhang Wu dies or surrenders, it is considered to have achieved his goal.It doesn't even matter if Zhang Wu doesn't die, as long as his army is consumed, Zhang Wu without an army is very easy for Cai Mao to deal with.

After such an analysis, Zhang Wu felt that Xu Shu's words made him understand the most important point, that is, there will be no reinforcements in Xiangyang. knife.If you don't understand this, and you still have expectations for Xiangyang reinforcements while defending, it will be bad.

So can Jiang Xia withstand this attack?Zhang Wu thinks that it should be no problem to defend, the key is not to lose too many soldiers, because he needs Jiangxia navy to suppress Cai Mao's Xiangyang navy and Zhang Yun's general navy, and also needs an infantry to fight against the defenders in Xiangyang city .
