Wang Can adopted Lu Xun's advice and stopped advancing troops.
Next, Wang Can focused on the counties within Lujiang County and captured Shu County, Longshu County, Hulingyi, Songzi County, Qian County, Xiang'an County, and Linhu County at lightning speed.
, Songyang County, Juchao County, and completely pacified Lujiang.
This only happened in January, but it greatly weakened the power of Wu.
The army began to rest and regroup, and Wang Can no longer concealed the news, but instead asked people to spread the news about the loss of Lujiang. For a time, people all over the Wu Kingdom knew that Wang Can had captured Lujiang.
…
Yuzhang County, Nanchang County.
Outside the city, there is the Shu army camp and the Chinese army tent.
Jia Xuduan was sitting on the left side of the tent, and Lu Meng was sitting on the right side. One of them was the military advisor, and the other was the commander-in-chief of the army. Lu Meng said with a slight worry: "Military advisor, my lord went to Lujiang and has captured Lujiang County.
It has been a month, but we have been blocked outside Nanchang County, unable to move forward, and we cannot continue to delay."
Zhou Tai nodded and said angrily: "What the young general said makes sense. How can a little Lu Su and an ordinary Sun Bi stop us?"
The other generals, such as Pang De, Zhang Ren, and Zhang Xiu, were filled with indignation and wished to attack Nanchang immediately.
The generals said something to each other, and the atmosphere became more and more heated.
Jia Xu sat silently, always with a faint smile on his face.
Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Military advisor, we have more than 300,000 troops. In addition to the more than 60,000 Wu soldiers who have been captured, we are already close to 400,000 people. With such a large number of people attacking Nanchang County, we are sure to defeat the Wu army and occupy Yuzhang County.
Since you have such tyrannical strength, why do you have to suffer at every turn?"
Lu Meng saw that Jia Xu was indifferent and said: "Military advisor, I know you have a plan, tell me!"
Jia Xu looked at Zhang Xiu and said in a neutral tone: "Today, if Nanchang County blocks the army, we will attack by force. Tomorrow, there will be Xichang County, Dongchang County, and even Beichang County blocking the road. Is it possible that every place we go to will be blocked?"
, do we have to let hundreds of thousands of troops attack by force to capture the city? If so, the army will decrease sharply wherever it goes. By the time they reach Wu County, hundreds of thousands of troops have been squandered, how can we attack? Isn’t it time to reach Wu County?
When the county saw the Wu army, they fled back in despair and stopped using troops?"
Zhang Xiu smiled awkwardly and said, "Commander, I'm just a little anxious, so don't take it to heart."
Lu Meng said: "Military advisor, everyone is in a hurry. Let's make arrangements."
Jia Xu said: "Our army does have more than 300,000 troops, but I hope that our soldiers will fight more and more and become stronger, instead of suffering heavy losses everywhere they go. Therefore, I can show my inability and let
Sun Ben thought we were encountering difficulties and did not dare to take action easily. This made Sun Ben relax his vigilance."
Zhang Ren thought for a while and immediately said: "With the help of Lu Su, Lu Fan and others in Nanchang County, it will be difficult to paralyze Sun Bi."
Jia Xu said seriously: "I didn't say this was a strategy to attack Nanchang County. If we can win by paralysis alone, what else will we do with hundreds of thousands of troops?"
Zhou Tai muttered and said: "Military advisor, please don't hold back and tell us directly. We will follow your instructions and we will definitely capture Nanchang County."
It seems that Jia Xu is born to be a chronic person and is not anxious at all.
He said slowly: "During this period, I have been studying the situation in Yuzhang County."
"Yuzhang County has 21 large and small counties including Nanchang, Jiancheng, Yichun, Poyang, Haihun, and Linru. Among them, Haihun is located to the north of Nanchang County, Poyang County is located to the east of Nanchang County, and Linru County is located in Nanchang
The counties in the south and west of the county have been occupied by our army, so there is no need to consider them."
"My intention is to trap Lu Su in Nanchang County, and then send some soldiers to capture Haihun, Poyang and Linru counties, turning Nanchang County into an isolated city."
"The most important thing is that the Lord sent a message saying that after taking Lujiang River, there will be a ceasefire and we will fight again after the spring. It is only the beginning of December, and there is still a long time before March next year. This time is enough for us to slowly
Grind Lu Su to death."
Jia Xu spoke so easily that everyone present took a breath.
Quietly, Jia Xu made a plan.
Just listen to Jia Xu continue to say: "Actually, attacking the three counties of Haihun, Poyang and Linru is just the beginning. According to the strategy, we must capture the three counties quietly before we can easily capture Nanchang County and defeat Lu Su."
.”
Lu Meng frowned and said: "Military advisor, didn't you say that Lu Su was trapped to death?"
Zhang Ren also nodded and said: "Yes, if Lu Su is trapped and killed, he will have to lead the soldiers of Nanchang County to attack. We can take the opportunity to fight Lu Su decisively and win."
Jia Xu shook his head and said: "It is necessary to trap Lu Su to death, otherwise Lu Su will have foreign aid and things will be difficult to handle. However, trapping Lu Su in the city is the first and most critical step. From today on, we will
The siege in Nanchang County was changed to a siege of three and one missing, leaving a way for Lu Su to retreat and prevent Lu Su from jumping over the wall in a hurry."
Some people don’t understand this change.
Zhou Tai asked: "Military advisor, don't you want to trap Lu Su to death? How can you leave a direction?"
Jia Xu patiently explained: "The death of Lu Su made him willing to stay, but he had to stay. Even if Lu Su was given a gap, he could not leave. This is the real death of Lu Su."
"
Zhou Tai shook his head in confusion, but nodded again.
Jia Xu did not continue to explain and said: "Lu Su wants to stop our army in Nanchang County. He must mobilize food from all over Yuzhang County to ensure that the more than 100,000 soldiers in the city do not starve. Haihun, Poyang and Lin
Rusan County is close to Nanchang County, so it must be Lu Su's first choice. You can think about it, if we quietly control the three Poyang counties, once Lu Su collects grain, we will do something about it, and there will be a good show.
Already."
Everyone's eyes lit up and they were excited.
Lu Meng laughed and said: "Military advisor, this strategy of yours is too good and too poisonous."
After hearing this, all the generals nodded.
When they looked at Jia Xu, they all felt a chill behind their foreheads. Jia Xu, an old guy, looked harmless and not scary at all, but he used unscrupulous means to do things.
Zhang Xiu asked: "Military advisor, the three counties need different generals, how to arrange them?"
Jia Xu's eyes glanced at Lu Meng, Zhou Tai, Zhang Ren, Zhang Xiu, Pang De, and Dong Xi, and then said: "We have six generals, leaving Lu Meng, Dong Xi, and Zhang Xiu.
In Nanchang City, we go to the city from time to time to provoke battles, letting Lu Su know that we have no intention of giving up and have always wanted to attack the city."
Pang De, Zhang Ren and Zhou Tai were overjoyed and eager to try.
Lu Meng asked unwillingly: "Military advisor, why can't I lead the troops and leave?"
Jia Xu said: "On the one hand, you are the commander-in-chief of the army. You cannot leave easily to avoid arousing Lu Su's suspicion. On the other hand, you are outstanding in martial arts. Only by staying here can you calm the situation."
Zhang Xiu asked again: "Military advisor, why can't the general go?"
Jia Xu asked: "Who killed Sun Jian?"
Zhang Xiu replied without hesitation: "Me!"
Jia Xuxiao said: "That's right. If you kill Sun Jian, Sun Bi, Lu Su, Lu Fan and others will remember you firmly and will always pay attention to you. As long as you are in the army, these people's attention will be
All my strength will be on you, and I will not worry about others. Therefore, you cannot lead troops to the other three counties, and can only stay in the army."
Zhang Xiu retreated in dismay and stopped talking.
Dong Xi was a demoted general and had not accomplished any merit, so he did not dare to refute Jia Xu's decision.
Jia Xu looked at Zhou Tai and asked: "Zhou Tai, you lead 6,000 soldiers to Poyang County. No matter what method you use to capture Poyang County, you must not leak the news. Is it possible?"
"The general will obey your orders!"
Zhou Tai did not refuse. What is there to be afraid of in a small county?
Jia Xu then ordered: "Pang De, you lead 6,000 soldiers to Haihun County, and you can't leak the news. Zhang Ren, you lead 6,000 soldiers to Linru County. Compared with Pang De and Zhou Tai, your mission is
The most difficult one is because Linru County has a larger county seat and more troops, so it’s a certain degree of difficulty. Can you do it?"
Zhang Ren said loudly: "Military advisor, don't worry, the general will definitely fulfill his mission."
Only then did Jia Xu feel relieved and finally decided on a strategy. During this period, Jia Xu spent countless efforts studying strategies to defeat Lu Su, just to achieve a great victory.
