Han counter current

Of course, in order not to irritate Liu Zhang and Sun Quan, Chen Feng did not expose his strength too much. More than half of his elite infantry were on the east, west, and north defense lines. According to the plan he and Jia Xu made, they took turns to attack Beyond the Great Wall.

There are still 20 sailors in Jingzhou. The commanding ability of Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Huang Zu and others is indeed inferior to that of Zhou Yu, but they also have their own unique views on training sailors.

In addition, in the past two or three years, shipyards around the world have continuously innovated technology, and new warships have been shipped one after another, and the results have been tested in actual combat, which has continuously improved the combat effectiveness of the Jingzhou Navy.

"Three years, it's time to make a move."

In the hall, Chen Feng stared at the sand table in the center, which was made after imitating the border area between Jingzhou and Jiangdong, and could intuitively reflect the situation on the front line.

Sitting in the hall, apart from Chen Feng's military adviser Jia Xu, there were also generals such as Gongsun Xu, Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, and young generals such as Yan Cheng and Gao Zhong.

Lu Xun, Mufu, Fazheng and other young counselors were also sitting in danger, waiting for the next order. They knew that General Chen Feng had been waiting for this day for a long time.

"In the past three years, our army has accumulated enough food and grass, and the north has gradually stabilized. Although the Hus outside the Great Wall still appear on the border from time to time, they are no longer enough to pose a threat to our army.

Right now, the plan to unify the world can be put on the agenda. Ladies and gentlemen, whether you are veterans on the battlefield or heroes in the world, do you have anything to say about the next plan. "

Looking at the subordinates present, Chen Feng's eyes are full of confidence. This is the foundation he has accumulated over the years. Among these people, no matter who they are, they can lead the army alone. It can really be regarded as having many soldiers and generals.

"Dare to ask my lord, now that the world is divided into three parts, Yizhou and Jiangdong are our enemies. In this battle, should we send out two armies to attack at the same time, or solve the opponents one by one."

As usual, as Chen Feng's old subordinate, old brother, Gongsun Xu spoke first.As the commander in chief of the army, what he has to do is to first determine the combat objectives, and as for the specific combat plan, he can slowly enrich it.

"Our army is the strongest in the world. However, the wolves look around, and we have to deal with it carefully. Although the accumulation of three years is quite rich, if it is exhausted all at once, it will be extremely detrimental to our army.

Therefore, after discussing with Wenhe, I decided to adopt the plan of swallowing wolves and capturing dogs. In other words, this time we will only launch a war against Sun Quan in Jiangdong, and we will not attack Yizhou for the time being. "

For the next plan, Chen Feng naturally planned for a long time.The so-called "swallowing wolves and capturing tigers", to put it bluntly, is to first attack Sun Quan, who is the most powerful and most popular, and at the same time make friends with Liu Zhang to deter the Yizhou army.

After all, the terrain in Yizhou is dangerous. If it is a strong attack, it may not be effective in three to five years. Once the war drags on, Chen Feng himself may be the first to fail.

On Sun Quan's side, although there is a natural danger in the Yangtze River, Sun Quan has nothing else to rely on. Therefore, it is beyond doubt to attack Jiangdong first.

Hearing what Chen Feng said, the eyes of all the generals became hot.At first, many people thought that they were going to attack in two ways, so that they could all get credit for it, but now, they are only launching a war against Jiangdong, which means that at least half of the people have no chance to go out.

"Cheng'er, you have improved a lot in the past three years, and you have also studied the enemy's tactics. The military advisers and generals all praise you very much. You also participated in the war three years ago. This time, we I plan to let you be the commander, commanding 15 cavalry, plus 20 Jingzhou navy, to attack Jiangdong."

"Ah, here, Nuo, the child takes orders."

Everyone present showed surprised expressions. Who would have thought that Chen Feng didn't discuss with them much, and directly ordered Yan Cheng to be handsome. Of course, Yan Cheng also has this qualification now, but it seems that there are a few people in the hall that are not bad. ah.

Gongsun Xu is mature and experienced. In fact, he should be the best commander in this battle. Zhang Liao is unstoppable and has a long history of battles. It would be appropriate for him to be in command. Gao Zhong has always been the pride of the younger generation. Years ago, he was the commander-in-chief of the army, and this time, he also has the qualifications.

As for Yan Cheng, no matter how seniority is considered, he must be arranged after these three people. It's just that since Chen Feng called the name, he naturally had his own considerations, and everyone stopped talking.

"Wen Yuan, your mission is to go north to the grasslands and coordinate military affairs in the north. Zilong, you stay in Luoyang and train the 20 soldiers and horses in the Luoyang camp. Zhonger, I want to send you to Hanzhong to take charge of the military and political power there. "

Soon, Chen Feng made some arrangements for everyone in the hall. Lu Xun and Fazheng went to Hanzhong with Gao Zhong, Pang Tong and Mu Otherwise went south to fight on the Yangtze River, and Xu Shu stayed in Luoyang. After everyone had made arrangements, only Leave Gongsun Xu idle.

Originally, everyone had some doubts in their hearts, but no one dared to ask.Only Gongsun Xu himself had a relaxed smile on the corner of his mouth. It seemed that such an arrangement was the best for him.

The most powerful and prestigious Gongsun Xu in the army is not only Chen Feng's eldest brother-in-law, but also the head of the Gongsun family, the largest family in the world. With his status, is he really suitable for the battlefield?

There is no way, maybe he wants to train the younger generation as soon as possible, or maybe he doesn't want Gongsun Xu to be at the forefront of the storm. This time, Chen Feng can only leave Gongsun Xu idle and stay in Luoyang to deter the world. Maybe it is also a good choice.

Chapter 840 Thunderbolt 1

The long-planned war to unify the world is finally about to kick off. Although the commander of the northern army has changed this time, and his ability and reputation are not as good as Zhou Yu, the Jiangdong military strategist, no one dares to underestimate the northern army.

In order to intimidate the Jiangdong army, Yan Cheng sent Lu Xiao, a heroic general, to command [-] elite cavalry, to go south from the Luoyang camp, pass through Yuzhou to complete a rest and supply, and then go directly to Yangzhou.

Just two days after Lu Xiao was dispatched, Ma Chao, who had been fighting abroad for three years, led his troops back to the Luoyang camp to rest. Wen Meng, who had just been idle, asked to fight again and again, and finally got a promise from Chen Feng.

"Report, report to Commander-in-Chief, General Wen Meng led [-] cavalry from the headquarters to report."

In the big tent, Yan Cheng was busy with the assembly of the army. Lu Xiao had already set off, and his main force had to catch up as soon as possible, otherwise, even if the front line had achieved great results, it would be difficult to hold on.ability

This time, all the famous generals in the army were transferred away. Among the strong generals left by Chen Feng, besides Lu Xiao, Huang Xu, Zhang Quan and other young generals, Guan Ping and others were promoted from Nujun Chong .

The rest, such as Zhang He, Zhang Xiu, Gao Lan, etc., either guarded one side or had other important responsibilities.As for generals such as Gongsun Xu and Zhao Yun, Yan Cheng is not qualified to command. When it comes time for these generals to fight, Yan Cheng may have to abdicate.

Fortunately, most of the generals in Jingzhou are still there. Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Huang Zu and others are still serving in the army and can take up most of the tasks for Yan Cheng. The powerful generals such as Wenpin and Ji Kang are also training in Jingzhou soldiers and horses.

Huang Zhong has now received the task of guarding Changsha and deterring Jiangdong. He has already rushed back to Changsha to rectify military affairs, and he can give Yan Cheng a lot of support if he thinks about it.

Yan Cheng, who was worrying about having no generals under his command, finally got his second brother.To really think about it, since the two broke up in Yangzhou, they haven't seen each other for three years in a blink of an eye.

"The last general, Wen Meng, has met the commander-in-chief."

A fierce and majestic body walked into the big tent. After a few steps away, Yan Cheng could feel a murderous aura. If it hadn't been reported by his subordinates, Yan Cheng even thought that this might be General Ma Chao or General Pound. came in.

"Haha, second brother, come on, sit down quickly, I haven't seen you for a long time, you are much more mature."

As the elder brother, Yan Cheng naturally had to treat Wen Meng better. Moreover, during the time in Yangzhou, Yan Cheng later felt that he had mishandled him and scolded him so fiercely that he made the second brother leave with resentment.

"There are only the commander and the general in the tent, and there is no second brother. It is only right for the subordinates to stand and report the situation."

"Well, hehe, okay. However, the great war has not yet begun, and the army has not yet launched. Although we are in the army at this moment, there is no need for you and me to be commensurate with each other. There is only you and my brother, so why should we be restrained?"

Yan Cheng could feel a trace of devotion and indifference from the other party's words and expressions. It seemed that the person standing in front of him only knew military orders, but not feelings.

"If that's the case, then let me be presumptuous, hahaha, big brother, long time no see, I miss you so much."

After finishing speaking, Wen Meng, who was cold and murderous just now, stepped forward with a smile and gave Yan Cheng a bear hug.The passionate brother is back again.

This guy Wen Meng has grown taller and has a stronger body during the three years of fighting abroad. In comparison, Yan Cheng looks a lot thinner.

"Good brother, I miss you too, hehe, I was wrong about that incident back then, I,,,,,,"

"Brother, why is he such a mother-in-law now? That incident back then was originally my fault. In the past three years, every time I think about it, I feel sorry for the brothers who died. You taught me the right thing, I was too reckless."

Wen Meng didn't care, time healed a lot of wounds, plus they were brothers and sisters, so he had long forgotten about any minor conflicts back then.

During the three years of fighting abroad, he has been using this matter to motivate himself, so that he can improve himself in each battle, and change his shortcomings again and again, and then, he finally got Ma Chao's recognition.

"Okay, good brother, I read you right. If you and my father are alive in heaven, I will be very relieved. How about it, the war has not yet started, and there are not many military affairs at the moment. How about we not get drunk tonight?"

"The good wine must be drunk at the celebration banquet. Although the war has not yet begun, the Jiangdong Army has received news, but we can't delay. Moreover, the fourth brother has already dispatched troops, and our army's follow-up troops must be in the shortest possible time. keep up.

Yangzhou is the northern gateway that Sun Quan has painstakingly managed for three years. No matter how fierce the fourth brother is, he will inevitably suffer losses there. I want to go south as soon as possible. "

"Okay, it really is Zhang Jin, quite a few, good brother, since that's the case, then I will arrange a task for you, but it's a pity that the third brother can't go south together this time, otherwise, if the four of my brothers join forces, why not break Jiangdong. "

After some emotional chatting, Wen Meng got the order very quickly. On the second day, Wen Meng led the five thousand elite troops of his headquarters, plus the three thousand light cavalry assigned to him by Yan Cheng, and rushed all the way south, and soon entered Jingzhou territory.

Seven days later, the food and grass for the army were ready, and Yan Cheng led [-] elite sailors to set off. Jingzhou had already gathered [-] elite naval forces along the Yangtze River, and the camp was still established in the Chibi area.

At this moment, Sun Quan, who was far away in Jiangdong, once again issued an order, and the whole Jiangdong was busy with this battle.After these three years of hard work, his control over Jiangdong has been strengthened a lot. Most of the generals in the army are more loyal and fearful of him than they were three years ago.
