Chapter 265 Yiling
"Meet Your Majesty!"
The etiquette in the army was much simpler. After entering the tent, these civil and military ministers bowed and stood on both sides.
Huang Zhong's hair and beard were all white, and his armor was on his body, so he had an inexplicable momentum. Below him was Wu Ban and Feng Xi. Among them, Wu Ban was also the navy commander of this Eastern Expedition.
Yang Yun glanced at everyone. Among them, they were basically in the innate realm. The strongest ones were naturally Huang Zhong, followed by Chen Dao, Liao Hua, Guan Xing and Zhang Bao, and the other two were relatively young, standing at the end of the general.
In addition to these people, there was Huang Quan who was camping in Jiangbei and Feng Nan who led his army to besiege Yidao without arriving.
"Everyone, I have been experiencing Jiangdong in the east for more than a year. Most of them are trapped in the pavilion and unable to break through the Wu army's camp. I wonder what you have?"
Calculate the time. It was already June of the second year of Zhangwu, and it was not far from the time when the fire camp was 700 miles away. When Yang Yun thought of this, an urgent feeling surged in his heart.
However, he calmed down this state of mind very well. The most important thing at the moment was not to order his troops to leave the camps in the mountains and forests, but to summon civil and military generals to discuss the next strategy.
If there is no correct strategy to deal with Lu Xun's army, even if the camp is withdrawn from the mountains and forests, it will only avoid the fate of being burned and temporarily avoid the crisis of annihilation. It will continue to be stalemate with Lu Xun's army.
The longer the time is, the more unfavorable it will be for the Shu army.
The waterway from Yizhou to Yiling is narrow, and it is difficult to transport food, grass and supplies. The Wu army occupied the four counties of Jiangling and Jingnan, so the logistics pressure was not great.
In addition to the problem of food and grass transportation, there is also weather reasons. It is midsummer now and the heat is steaming. If you don’t camp in the mountains and forests to hide from the heat, it won’t take long to stay outside, and the morale of the entire army will be greatly reduced by the weather and gradually collapse.
Therefore, even if the camp is transferred to the mountains and forests now, it will only slow down the defeat of the army.
The attendant Ma Liang stood up, bowed and said, "Report to Your Majesty, after our army's eastern expedition, we won more than ten consecutive battles, but the Wu army could not stand firm. If we want to attack the enemy's camp, we may suffer heavy casualties."
"I have a plan. The leader of the Wuxi barbarians, Shamoke, has led 10,000 troops from the headquarters. The Wuxi barbarians are good at crossing mountains and ridges. It is better to send Shamoke to Yidu, bypass the Yidao and enter Wuling County, and attack from the side to divide the troops of the Luxun camp! In this way, the troops of the Luxun camp can be reduced a lot!"
"If Lu Xun does not divide his troops, Your Majesty can order Shamoke and General Zhang Nan to join forces to attack Yidao! If the Yidao is broken, our army can attack both sides and break Lu Xun's camp!"
Ma Liang followed Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang to fight with the army all year round, and was quite strategic. The strategy he said now is more feasible. Yidao is a city in the southern part of Yiling, guarding the south side of the Yangtze River. Now Lu Xun's main force is Yiling in the north of the Yangtze River, and the one who guards Yidao is Sun Huan, the nephew of Sun Quan.
Yang Yun nodded slightly. Although this plan was good, Lu Xun, the enemy, was probably expected. In the original timeline, Ma Liang and Shamoke led the Wuxi barbarians to attack from the side, but were defeated by Bu Zhi of the Eastern Wu, and did not play much role.
Although the Wuxi barbarians were good at crossing mountains and ridges and had not weak personal strength, they were still unable to compare with Bu Zhi, the prime minister of Eastern Wu and the current governor of Jiaozhou.
"Ji Chang's plan is good!"
Yang Yun praised, then glanced at the others, wanting to see if there was any good solution for the others.
However, what disappointed Yang Yun was that except for Ma Liang, the rest of the people looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't stand up.
In fact, this is no wonder that others are all due to Liu Bei.
Before the Eastern Expedition, both Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun opposed the attack on the Eastern Wu. As a result, Liu Bei was eager to take revenge and directly let all those who opposed the expedition stay in the rear and took a group of generals to the expedition to the expedition.
But the people he led were basically brave generals and powerful generals. The only handsome man was Liu Bei himself.
It’s sad to think about it. After Guan Yu and Zhang Fei’s death, the only one who could control the army in Shu Han was actually Liu Bei!
As for Zhuge Liang, he is also a potential general. But his current job is the prime minister, not the general. He has not yet demonstrated his ability to command troops.
Except for Zhuge Liang himself, there are probably few people who think he can lead troops to fight now. If Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang to lead troops, in the eyes of others, it would be like letting Xiao He do Han Xin's work.
"Zhuge Liang stayed in Yizhou, and Wei Yan stationed in Hanzhong! Alas... I didn't expect that the talents of Shu Han were so scarce!"
Even in Eastern Wu, Zhou Yu, Lu Meng, Lu Su and Lu Xun. Even if all these people were dead, there were also famous generals such as Lu Kang, Ding Feng, and Lu Dai. As for the Wei Kingdom, it goes without saying that Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu are not dead yet. Even if they are dead, there are Sima Yi and Deng Ai.
In the Shu Han area, after Zhuge Liang died of illness in Wuzhangyuan, only one Jiang Wei was left.
No wonder Zhuge Liang was so happy after he got Jiang Wei in the future. If it weren't for Jiang Wei, Shu Han would probably not be able to find a general. After Jiang Wei was forced to go to Dazhong for fighting for the dynasty, Deng Ai smuggled into Yinping and Shu Han was directly destroyed.
Well, I thought too far.
Yang Yun calmed down. At this time, he could only rely on himself!
"By the way, I remember Cao Pi's idea of interfering in the Battle of Yiling. Even after the great defeat of Shu Han, he sent troops south to threaten the Wu army's flanks, which allowed Lu Xun to lead his troops back!"
"Since the Wei army does not come out, it would be a pity that the 20,000 troops led by Huang Quan would not be needed in Jiangbei!"
When he thought of this, he immediately asked the soldiers to present the map. After seeing the location of Huang Quan's troops, a hint of joy appeared on his face.
"After the orders, all the generals immediately transferred the camp and gathered dozens of battalions in front and behind. I already have the method to defeat the thieves!"
Yang Yun first set his eyes on Chen Dao and said, "Uncle Zhi, I left you 20,000 elite troops to set up a camp on the plains and restrain Lu Xun's main force!"
Chen Dao served as the commander of the Baier Army for many years and seemed to be just a guard leader, but in the future, he was able to serve as the governor of Yong'an for more than ten years and was named General of the Western Expedition, which shows that he has the talent of a general.
Yang Yun knew this, so he would not bury his ability. He was promoted directly in the battle. Chen Dao served as the commander of the Baier Army for so long that he had established prestige in the army, so he did not have to worry about the generals and the school being dissatisfied.
