Chapter 292 It will definitely be next time

Although Sun Quan failed to attack Shouchun, he showed his minions.

In order to fight with Yuan Shao for peace of mind, Cao Cao must leave heavy troops in Huainan to defend him, which indirectly poses a threat to Longxiang Hefei, especially the Hefei New City is still under construction.

So as soon as he returned to the lieutenant's mansion, Lu Su suggested to Longxiang that the guards would be added. Hefei Shuangcheng plus the Junqiu County in the east, and there were only 10,000 people in the craftsman camp, which felt like a small horse was pulling a big cart.

Long Xiang insisted on diligence and thrift in the family, and he was worried that he would raise too many soldiers and have too heavy burdens.

Although tens of thousands of people were moved to the new city, the three most elite athletes went to Runan and then drew troops as soldiers, so there would be a shortage of people to farm and build a city.

Seeing Long Xiang hesitating, Lu Su frowned and reminded: "We cultivate ourselves, manage our families, govern the country and pacify the world. We seek survival in this chaotic world. Just knowing how to cultivate farms and raise the people for the sake of the people will definitely not last long. We do not have enough strength in our hands, everything in front of us will be in front of us.

It can be gone at any time. Now that Cao Cao has completely intervened in Huainan, we must pay more attention to it."

Long Xiang shook his head and said, "It's not that I don't pay enough attention to it, but the construction of a new city is too expensive. If thousands of male men are recruited to be soldiers, farmland and building a city will be affected."

Lu Su replied: "There are few things in the world that have the best of both worlds. At the worst, we must adjust the proportion of craftsmen and farmers in Xincheng, even if there are more preparation soldiers. Doesn't Yunqi like to prepare for the future? It's time for Xincheng to increase its troops."

"I have been considering these days and am preparing to transfer Bo'an (Xu Ding)'s city defense camp. It's barely enough to cooperate with Uncle Zhong's craftsman camp."

"The new city is several times larger than the old city. Is it not enough for more than a thousand defenders?"

Long Xiang thought to himself that he should not look down on thousands of people, Zhang Liao had entered the Wu Temple with 800 people. When he saw Lu Su saying earnestly, he couldn't help showing his trump card.

"Zi Jing doesn't know anything. It's not that I don't want to recruit soldiers. It's because there are troops waiting to be taken over. He has nearly 10,000 troops under his command, which is completely enough to defend Xincheng."

"Nearly 10,000 plots?"

When Lu Su heard this, he understood that Chen Lan, who was entrenched in the northern part of Lujiang, had separated from Yuan Shu at the same time with Lei Xu, and was also Long Xiang's comrade.

Lei Xu was defeated and surrendered to Hefei. Chen Lan also sent envoys to show his affection to Longxiang. Therefore, at the beginning of the year, Zhang Fei borrowed Runan and the upstream of the Huai River was so smooth.

"Since Chen Lan has this intention, she should promote this matter as soon as possible. Be careful that it will change if it is too late."

"I want to wait."

"Wait? What to wait?"

Lu Su's face was full of question marks, thinking that there were elite soldiers in Shouchun now, and they would never be as weak as Yan Xiang and Liu Fu. Lu Su was worried that Chen Lan could not withstand the pressure, so he finally chose to surrender to Cao.

"Wait for an opportunity."

Long Xiang smiled mysteriously, leaned forward and whispered his plan.

After hearing this, Lu Su was stunned and asked incredibly: "Can this happen? Will it be too risky? First of all, the time is uncontrollable."

Long Xiang said seriously: "There are many major floods after the severe drought. If it weren't for the severe drought in Huainan last year, how could I dig the Shifei Channel to release floods? The rain in the first half of this year is normal, and heavy rain is likely to be concentrated in the second half of the year and the beginning of next year. It is reasonable to find excuses at that time."

"I always feel that it's too ideal." Lu Su's face was bitter: "And why do you choose Sun Quan to plot? Jiangdong is really such a big threat to the emperor?"

"Zi Jing understands Sun Quan's character, do you think he is a good person? Once the envoy becomes a climate in the future, Jiangdong will definitely constrain the country."

Longxiang's tone was very firm, as if he had made a final decision for Sun Quan. He expected that the rain was dense at the end of the year, and the western part of Lujiang was mainly mountainous landforms, which were very susceptible to mountain torrents and heavy rains.

According to Longxiang's idea, Chen Lan first pretended to defect to Sunhe, Lujiang, on the grounds of flooding and disaster, and then went to Shouchun for robbery under the banner of Jiangdong. Cao Cao would definitely settle the accounts on the head of Jiangdong. Longxiang would not

The plan is to calm down the Sun and Cao families, with the ultimate goal of making Hefei siphon the population of Huainan.

Long Xiang easily refused to make any decisions, and he would firmly implement them once he had the idea. Lu Su advised him but refused to continue. He also firmly believed that one would rise and fall and the other would help Liu Bei.

Thinking of Cao Cao sending a general to Shouchun, his main force must return to Xudu and flee to Runan, Lu Su couldn't help but sigh: "If we used Liu Fu to seize Shouchun, the emperor's uncle could come to Huainan even if Runan failed. Now Xiahou Dun

Zhang Liao and others guarded Shouchun, and the emperor's uncle probably had to go to Jingzhou."

"There is always Liu Biao in Jingzhou, which can make the envoy stand on the big tree, just like we stand on Jiangdong. As the saying goes, it is good to enjoy the cool under the big tree." Long Xiang paused and continued to explain: "Attacks like Cao Cao are head-on, facing each other head-on, head-on

We will inevitably suffer losses. Only by transferring the contradictions can we have the opportunity to seek development. The reason why I didn’t want Shouchun Kongcheng at the beginning was that I didn’t want to block Cao Cao for Sun Quan.”

Lu Su shook his head bitterly: "But now that Sun Quan is defeated, Sun He does not control the northern part of Lujiang, Hefei has become the front line, and you still have to block Cao's army for Sun Quan."

Long Xiang smiled mysteriously: "Hehe, so you have to use Chen Lan to make a fuss to intensify the conflict between Sun and Cao families again. It is best to let Cao's army bypass Hefei and attack Lujiang directly."

"If Cao Cao conquers Lujiang, wouldn't Hefei become an isolated city?"

"What are the lonely city afraid of? At that time, the population of Huainan will be concentrated in Hefei. Whether Cao Cao or Sun Quan occupy the city, they will not only send troops to garrison, but also transport food and grass from the rear. When I accumulate enough strength in the future, I can defeat them one by one."

"It's reasonable, I'm afraid that when you take the initiative, it will be after Uncle Liu takes power?"

"It is necessary to endure and wait for opportunities. The envoy used to have generals but no masters. Now that Zi Yang has completed his wings, it is time to flap his wings and fly high. As the saying goes, if you don't fly for three years, you can soar into the sky and never roar for three years,

A stunning success.”

"Then let's wait and see."

When the two were talking about Liu Bei in Hefei, Liu Bei, who was in Runan, was also talking about Longxiang. To be precise, he talked about the past three thousand young men in Huainan.

It has been a few months since Zhang Fei arrived in Runan, and during this period, Liu Bei only accumulated a few hills, which made the three thousand athletes in Huainan useless.

At this time, Cai Yang led 5,000 troops into Runan. He was originally going to Yang'an to cooperate with Li Tong's affairs, but was lured by Liu Ye to Pingyu halfway, and became a piece of fat meat in Liu Bei's bowl.

There was only one piece of fat, and Liu Bei's generals wanted to eat it, and Zhang Fei was the most excited.

Liu Bei's team at this time was composed of three parts: the old Xuzhou subordinates, the Runan Yellow Turban Rebel Army and the Huainan new recruits. He used troops in Runan in the past few months, and basically used the local Yellow Turban Rebel Army.

The new recruits in Huainan and the old Xuzhou were both regarded as backbone of the army by Liu Bei. They planned to rely on these thousands of people to grow and grow in the future. At this time, they were unwilling to use them to fight against Cai Yang's regular army.

"Since it's Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao attracts Cai Yang, he should ask his second brother to take them to the battle. The third brother should wait for the next chance."

During Guan Yu's wandering in Runan, he captured Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao's command. More than a thousand Yellow Turban soldiers became his troops. Liu Bei was willing to fight Guan Yu from the beginning.

"Next time? I'll want this time, and I will definitely give it to my second brother next time."
