Han counter current

As for himself, he will naturally lead the rest of the tribe to continue fighting here. As long as his hometown operates properly, as long as his He family has six or seven thousand soldiers, the Kuaiji He family will not decline.

Maybe, after the war was over, He Qi, because of his meritorious service in the front line, and the support of the troops in Kuaiji, even if Sun Quan wanted to reward him, it was impossible.

While He Qi was trying to find a way to recruit soldiers from Kuaiji Shanyue, Tai Shici was also writing a letter to ask Sun Quan for help.The Northern Army seemed to have brought in another [-] slaves from the rear. The offensive continued unabated, and the pressure on the front lines was still high.

As the general of the Yangzhou battlefield, Tai Shici has the responsibility to take care of everything here. Since the northern army has the idea of ​​fighting to the death, he, Tai Shici, will defend the front line for Jiangdong no matter what.

On the south bank of the Yangtze River, in the camp of the Jiangdong Army, the grain, grass, and luggage that had just been transported from the rear arrived at the camp. The Jiangdong Army had support again, and there would be no danger of running out of food in a short time.

"The situation is not right, come and send this secret letter of mine to General Tai Shici immediately. The more intense the situation in Yangzhou is, the more abnormal the situation will be. Ziyi cannot be led by the nose by his opponent."

Zhou Yu immediately wrote a military order after reading the Yangzhou battle report.He didn't expect that the war in Yangzhou would be so fierce that General Tai Shici was starting to worry now.

For a moment, Zhou Yu only felt that someone was leading him into a trap. He tried his best to calm himself down and think more rationally.

But unfortunately, he just couldn't find out the real thoughts behind this scene, and he couldn't get rid of the interference of doubts. This war made his mind more and more serious.

Chapter 851

In the middle of the night, the camp of the Jiangdong Army was quiet. Zhou Yu managed the army well, especially at night, he emphasized military discipline the most, no noise was allowed, and the patrols were also very strict.

"Oh, I can't sleep again..."

Zhou Yu sighed and sat up from the bed, really thinking about it. This month, he has experienced this kind of insomnia almost every day, and even he himself can't explain why.

In the past few months, Yan Cheng commanded the troops to attack continuously, and then Yangzhou continued to fight, and the soldiers and horses of the two sides began to clash, and now, all of these things always made Zhou Yu feel that something was wrong.

But where this bad feeling came from, he couldn't tell clearly, let alone guess.Yan Cheng is a very good junior. Zhou Yu has to admit this. It can even be said that judging from Yan Cheng's current performance, there is no young man in Jiangdong who can match him. Even Lu Meng is far behind.

But if it is said that Zhou Yu was forced to sleep at night by a junior, in fact, even he himself can't believe it, let alone Yan Cheng, even if Cao Cao was reborn, Zhou Yu would not feel such a great pressure.

"What's the problem? The Northern Army is strong. It is well known in the world. What kind of tricks is Chen Feng playing? And this Yan Cheng, are all the tricks on the front line really done by him?

The way of using soldiers is false and true. It is reasonable to say that Chen Feng is half a master of using soldiers. He must know this, so what is he thinking? "

With a stomach full of doubts, Zhou Yu put on some clothes and stood up. He really couldn't sleep. If this kind of life continued for a few more months, he might collapse himself.

"Could it be that Chen Feng's sending troops to Jiangdong is fake, but capturing Yizhou is true? If it is true that Chen Feng captures Yizhou, he can rectify the Yizhou navy, go down the river, and directly attack our Jiangdong rear.

However, the mountains in Yizhou are high and the roads are dangerous. Although Liu Zhang is stupid, he still has an army of 10,000+ under his command, and he is on the defensive side, so there should be no troubles.

Although there are few famous generals in Yizhou, Zhang Ren, Wu Yi and others are not ordinary people. Moreover, Zhuge Liang integrated the remnants of the Liu family and the remnants of the Sima family, and he also gained a firm foothold in Yizhou, let alone give Chen Opportunity for the wind to attack. "

Too many questions, too many worries, shrouded Zhou Yu's heart, which could not be dissipated for a long time.As the war progressed, Yizhou might even become the key to victory, and Zhou Yu gradually shifted his attention to Yizhou.

In fact, when Yan Cheng led his army to the south, both Chen Feng and Sun Quan sent envoys to Yizhou to win over Liu Zhang. The prices offered by both sides were not low. cake.

Until now, Liu Zhang has also followed the advice of his subordinates, circling between Chen Feng and Sun Quan, and will not express his position in a short time.But he accepted all the gifts from both parties as ordered, and of course, there was still a gift that should be given in return.

These days, Zhuge Liang kept admonishing Liu Zhang to unite with Sun Quan to resist Chen Feng, but he was opposed by most of the aristocratic families in Chengdu. After all, Chen Feng has shown enough friendliness and sincerity towards Yizhou now, Liu Zhang and the Yizhou aristocratic family , there is absolutely no need to fight against Chen Feng at this juncture.

Of course, if Chen Feng has an absolute advantage now, or if Jiangdong is about to be unable to resist, those in power in Chengdu will definitely suggest Liu Zhang send troops, but, right now, it seems that that time is far away.

"Chen Feng, Chen Feng, what are you thinking? Attacking Jiangdong is indeed the first choice, and it is right to win over Liu Zhang, but these methods seem to be too common, and this does not seem to be his style.

Since so many soldiers and horses have been mobilized, they must want to occupy Jiangdong as soon as possible, but right now, why has the Northern Army gathered in the Yangtze River and there is no tendency to move forward for so long?

Is Zhou Yu too capable?Or on the side of the Northern Army, what kind of conspiracy is brewing?It's really hard to guess. I don't know if the governor can see the key at this time. "

In a bedroom, Zhuge Liang waved his lupine lightly, muttering words and thinking about problems.The situation in the world cannot escape his control, and he also knows something about the war on the banks of the Yangtze River, but he can't figure out what the real intention is under the many appearances.

"Do you want to take Yizhou first, or attack Jiangdong first? Or both? Chen Feng, which one is your real goal? It's really hard to guess..."

Zhuge Liang sighed again, even a wise man like him couldn't figure out the key point, and I am afraid that others would not be able to do this.

Jiangdong, in Jiankang territory, in view of the tense frontline battle, Sun Quan had to conscript the vital forces in the rear again, whether it was food, grass, supplies, or city guards from all over the country, they were all transferred to the frontline.

Especially in some cities near the south, there are basically only two or three hundred counties and county soldiers left to maintain local law and order, and the rest of the troops with a little combat effectiveness are transported to the front line.

Everyone knows that the danger Jiangdong is facing now comes from the north and from the other side of the Yangtze River. As long as the governor Zhou Yu can hold the defense line of the Yangtze River, the entire Jiangdong can be safe and secure.

Therefore, no matter how many soldiers and horses are deployed in the rear, it is worthwhile.In the past two months, the battle reports sent back from the front line all recorded the great achievements of the governor Zhou Yu.

Although the enemy's offensive is fierce, under the heroic resistance of Jiangdong Jianer, more than [-] enemy troops have been wiped out. What kind of concept is this? This is almost equivalent to half of Jiangdong's standing army.

Of course, the Jiangdong Army also suffered losses, otherwise they would not have mobilized troops, horses, food and supplies from the rear so frequently, but in general, all the efforts are worthwhile. The enemy army has always been trapped in the Yangtze River No advance was allowed on the north shore.

"This is half of Jiankang's defenders. I hope it can play a greater role under Gongjin."

Looking at the soldiers and horses with banners and flags outside the city, Sun Quan frowned. In order to support the battle on the front line, Zhou Yu almost gave him whatever he wanted. Almost over 15.

This is almost the entire strength of Jiangdong. If even this cannot defend the Yangtze River defense line, then Sun Quan has nothing to do.

"As long as it can be defended, I have transferred all the soldiers and horses in the rear. Except for some soldiers and horses left to guard Shanyue, the southern counties are almost undefended. Hehe, right now, even pirates dare to come to my Jiangdong coastal city. Let's make a fuss."

Thinking of the situation in Jiangdong, Sun Quan couldn't help sighing.However, sometimes he didn't know how accurate his predictions were. While he was sighing, a group of pirates in the East China Sea were trying to get close to the village by the seaside of Kuaiji.

Chapter 852: Heaven-Based Means 1

Kuaiji is one of the six counties in Jiangdong. It provides Sun Quan with a large amount of taxes every year. In addition, it is also the fiefdom of some important generals in Jiangdong. The most famous one is the He family where He Qi lives. It depends on Kuaiji to support itself troops.

In addition, Kuaiji is adjacent to the sea, and there are many shipyards in the east, both official and private. Every year, a large number of merchant ships from south to north stop at the docks along the coast of Kuaiji, which also brings a lot of money to Kuaiji. income.

It can be said that important places like Kuaiji can be regarded as Sun Quan's darling, and Sun Quan would not allow accidents in these important places under any circumstances.

In the first half month, the He family suddenly sent people to the territory of Shanyue to recruit young and strong men. It seemed that they wanted to expand the army. This is actually not unexpected. After all, the frontline battles are dangerous, and it is reasonable to replenish troops in the rear in time.

It's just that, this time the price paid by the He family is not small. In the past, Shanyue was not very talkative. Fortunately, He Qi told his father to make more connections and generously donate money. This persuaded the local Shanyue leader, and then recruited 3000 many people.

With the passage of time, and the fact that the He family was willing to spend money, more and more young men from the mountains and foreigners arrived at the camp designated by the He family, waiting to be selected. It's getting closer.

In the East China Sea, a fleet of merchant ships is rushing forward. Behind the fleet is an armed pirate fleet. They are chasing after them with all their might, as if they don't want this merchant fleet to leave.

"Speed ​​up, speed up, surround them, hurry up, don't get off a fast plank, speed up for me, and send a signal to the nearby fleet, let them block this merchant fleet."

In front of the pirate fleet, a large ship was advancing rapidly. On the deck, a one-armed man commanded the fleet to change formation. It seemed that he was the leader of the pirate team.

Not long after, the merchant fleet was stopped, and the one-armed pirate leader ordered his men to control the merchant vessel and then retreated. Although some brave people wanted to resist or jump into the sea to escape, they were all killed by the one-armed pirate leader.

"There is still one day before the date the general said, so don't make trouble at this juncture. Come on, please continue to patrol the nearby waters. If there are still merchant ships, I will take them down. If anyone refuses to cooperate, they will be killed directly. "

"promise,,,,,,"

The one-armed pirate leader seemed to be waiting for someone. His pirate team had no less than [-] ships and [-] people. It was quite a force.

If he really wanted to make a fortune, he could directly invade the territory of Kuaiji to plunder right now, or go up the river and visit the rich places in Jiangdong. In this way, he would definitely make a fortune.

However, this guy's goal doesn't seem to be as simple as looting. The sea area he is in is only a hundred miles away from the coast of Kuaiji, and he can reach it in half a day by riding the wind.
