Chapter 820: The Overlord on the River
Bu Lianshi was right. Sun Quan admitted that he brought Bu Lianshi with him, which was completely a chess move, and was influenced by the demons of the Taoist heart. But this does not mean that Sun Quan was crazy about gaining and losing his mind, only women in his eyes, but no overall situation in his heart.
As early as when Sun Quan promoted the Battle of Chibi, he wanted to end this chaotic world. Although things were impermanent, they gave Cao Cao and Liu Bei the two heroes, a chance to breathe, but they were just breathing. While he was sick, Sun Quan did not want to be the villain in the story.
Cao Cao was lucky. Sun Quan failed to seize the opportunity to give Cao Cao a ruthless one, but he had already left a backup plan in the north.
Although Liu Bei is far inferior to Cao Cao, Sun Quan knew that this person had a very good life and had powerful generals under his command. If he really didn't take Liu Bei seriously, it would be like letting the tiger return to the mountain, with endless troubles.
The Battle of Red Cliff is gone, but the battle is still there. The only difference is whether to send Cao Cao and Liu Bei away together or to send the two people away separately.
When he went to Jingzhou, Bu Lianshi only gave Sun Quan an obvious excuse. The real purpose of replacing Liu Bei and searching for Diao Chan was Sun Quan.
There is no need to say much about Liu Bei. In Sun Quan's heart, the missing Diao Chan is not as calm as he looks in the eyes of others.
Something must have happened to Diao Chan!
Maybe she was not in danger because the cards belonging to Diao Chan in the system are still intact, but Diao Chan was able to not see Sun Deng for several months (Sun Deng needed to save energy and prolong his life, and Sun Quan was not there at that time). She must have encountered something difficult to escape!
On board,
"I don't understand something." Bu Lianshi said curiously, "Since you really want to Jingzhou, why do you deliberately hide it from Zhu Ran? Do you really want to hide it from others? But if you hide it from Zhu Ran, Zhu Ran will definitely not make any preparations. Do you really plan to rely on this group of caravans to fight?"
"War is sometimes not as difficult as you think. Especially when one side has an absolute advantage."
As he said that, Sun Quan smiled slightly, and it was rare that he saw something called pride on his plain face.
"Do you know what the overlord of the river is?"
Soon, Mr. Bu Lian saw with his own eyes what the overlord is the Jiang Shang!
??????
"Fuck it!"
A group of white-clothed merchants transported goods from the Yangtze River to pass through the boundary of Jingzhou. Taking advantage of the night, they sneaked into the bottom of the water and drilled through dozens of enemy ships.
Since then, the entire Yangtze River Basin, up and down, and towards ships, all hang the "Sun" flag!
"Cool!"
Looking at the soldiers on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, holding swords and guns, shouting insults, but they were helpless towards the people on the water and Jiangdong. Zhu Ran felt comfortable all over, one word - cool!
"Hahahaha! A bunch of dog bastards, now you know that Mr. Jiangdong is amazing!"
Zhu Ran whistled at the shore and mocked endlessly.
Alas, blame me.
Sun Quan sighed silently, "A good scholarly family, he was trained to become a reckless man in the world."
Yes, if you go to business in the river all year round, can you still reason with humanity? Only by being more ruthless and more scoundrel than the enemy is the way to survive for a long time. Now that Zhu Ran wants to return to his career, he will probably find it difficult for him to adapt to it for a while. I am afraid that it is not just a fucking old man in the court.
"The lord is wise!"
Zhu Ran quarreled and didn't even drink a sip of water, and turned around and flattered Sun Quan. He said, how could Sun Quan not attack Jingzhou? That was to hide his eyes and the world.
"Once upon a time, Liu Biao's navy was still the enemy of my Jiangdong. In just two years, the lord's foundation was completely destroyed by his lord! His lord is wise! He had expected today to be there!"
"This is called cutting off the firewood from the cauldron." Sun Quan said lightly, "Jingzhou is the base camp of Cihang Jingzhai. If you want to completely control Jingzhou, you can't do it in less than 30 or 50 years. So some things must be prepared in advance. I have not occupied Jingzhou for a long time, but it is enough for me to transfer the warships in Jingzhou and take away the shipbuilders here."
"No wonder, why do I think these ships can't help but smash. I thought I'd be a little more powerful when I stayed with my lord these days." Zhu Ran grabbed his head and said with a smile.
"That's right, those are not warships at all." Sun Quan nodded to confirm that the original warships in Jingzhou had been pulled to Jiangdong long ago, and what was left here were just some ordinary large ships. "These ships were layered on the surface of the ship, and they were still shipped in their bones. They could be used to cross the river and fight, haha."
Sun Quan shook his head disdainfully. This is why, Sun Quan did not tell Zhu Ran the truth in advance, and he didn't need to prepare anything in advance. With the excellent nature of these heroes who have been sailing all year round, Sun Quan was able to destroy the few large ships in Jingzhou today.
Of course, there must be some small boats, and they can be built temporarily. But small boats are not enough to transport troops across the river.
In this way, Sun Quan seemed to have a small knife and gently stroked the map. The huge Jingzhou was instantly divided into two by Sun Quan. Through the water of the Yangtze River, it was divided into two irrelevant areas, north and south.
"The overlord of the Yangtze River is worthy of his reputation." Bu Lianshi praised it very rarely, and then changed his voice, "But the battle has not started yet, right?"
In one sentence, Zhu Ran, who was originally excited, calmed down in an instant. Yes, the battle has not started yet.
The current situation is that Liu Bei's army on both sides of the Taiwan Strait has no choice but to deal with them. But at the same time, they have no choice but to deal with each other. Could it be that they really rely on their white-clothed businessmen to fight head-on with others?
"It's already started."
Sun Quan looked to the north, and in the distance he could not see, there was a fire of war.
????????
north,
Cao Cao's camp was the first to get news. Although Zhou Yu died, the Jiangdong Army was still there. After Lu Su took over the army, he retreated steadily. Even if Cao Cao did not attack, he would not send scouts to stare at this terrifying force at any time.
until,
Lu Su vainly took his troops back to Jiangdong, but in fact he led his troops south and pointed directly at Xiangyang!
"All of us underestimated Lu Su. Although this plan was decided by Sun Quan, it was indispensable for Lu Su's courage."
Cao Cao, who beat the Yuan brothers to retreat step by step, couldn't help but sigh after receiving the information.
Zhou Yu is good at plotting. As a deputy general, Lu Su always seems to be just a foil, and he is a very mean person in his impression.
As a result, such a person, when he had already taken over as the Grand Commander and was so powerful that he should cherish his life, he actually went to Xiangyang, the enemy's base camp, and made peace with Liu Bei.
How many people can have such courage today?!
Why did Jiangdong take the initiative to seek peace? At first glance, it sounds very suspicious. I subconsciously feel that there is a conspiracy inside, but if you think about it carefully, it is actually understandable.
The soldiers under Lu Su were taken away by Zhou Yu from Jiangdong. After Zhou Yu's death, the war had stopped, so the soldiers naturally wanted to go home.
How to return to Jiangdong? There are only two roads. Either, return to Bashu from Hanzhong, and then go down the river. But in this way, you must pass through Jingzhou and Liu Bei's territory. Liu Bei dared to let the Jiangdong army borrow the route? Or, go straight to the southeast from the gap between Liu Bei and Cao Cao's territory. This is the fastest, nearest and most reasonable way.
At this time, Cao Cao had already led his troops north to confront Yuan. Lu Su was not afraid of Cao's army attacking from the side. The only thing he was worried about was that Liu Bei's army would attack from the other side.
So Lu Su asked for peace, just hoped that Liu Bei would not attack at this time, and Lu Su also gave him the greatest sincerity. He went to Xiangyang alone, which was equivalent to taking himself as a hostage, so that Liu Bei could not feel assured that Jiangdong Army would not have any other ideas.
