If it is found in the Central Plains, it can be merged with the southeast; if it is found in the southeast, it can also be merged with the northwest.
Jingxiang has always been the strategic hub of the North-South game.
This is why Cao Rui dared to ask Jiangdong to draw Lujiang County on the north bank and the old and new Hefei cities when it was clearly the Wei State's attempt to get the Wu State to betray the Han Dynasty in order to alleviate the urgent crisis in Guanzhong. It was also Sun Quan who knew that once he accepted the Wei State's proposal , will inevitably usher in the attack of the Han army, but there is still no reason to accept it at all costs.
The Wu State, located in the southeast, could not resist the temptation of Jingzhou.
Just taking full control of the natural dangers of the river made Jiangdong flock to it!
Not to mention that if you occupy Jingbei, you will have the opportunity to compete in the world.
Yes, if Jiangdong wants to dominate the world, it will be impossible to achieve it by occupying Huainan. Only by occupying Jingxiang can there be a chance.
The reason is very simple. The strategic significance of Huainan, where there are no war horses, is to protect Jiangdong's safety. Facing the heart of the Central Plains, Jiangdong can't continue to fight for the top spot even if it has Huainan.
Moreover, the current Wu State is already the weakest among the Three Kingdoms!
Just like a boat sailing against the current, if Sun Quan did not leave a glimmer of hope for his descendants to strive for supremacy in the world, Wu would have no choice but to settle in a corner and wait for the end of the struggle between Han and Wei to perish.
Moreover, this is the best time for Jiangdong to obtain Jingbei.
Because he can make both ends meet.
Han and Wei were mortal enemies, and as a third party, the State of Wu could have acted according to the circumstances.
For example, when the Han Dynasty was in decline, he formed an alliance with the Han Dynasty and worked together to fight against the threat of Wei; but now when Wei is losing to the Han, he has reached a consensus with Wei to control it together. The rise of the Han Dynasty.
Weigh the pros and cons for your own survival.
Moreover, he was not afraid of the Han army's front.
Because the Han Dynasty did not have many troops, and because the Wei State would not stand idly by.
If the Han Dynasty was annoyed by Jiangdong's repetition and betrayal and dispatched a large army from Guanzhong to fight, the Wei State would definitely take notice and try to expel the Han army from Guanzhong; but he only had to guard the city to avoid disaster.
vice versa.
If the Han Dynasty ignores him and still devotes all the strength of the country to attack Wei in Guanzhong in an attempt to restore the old capital, then he will also raise troops to harass Hanzhong County and Yong'an.
Without him, Han and Wei would maintain the status quo, which is the situation Jiangdong is most looking forward to.
Only then can Wu State have time to restore its national strength and have the opportunity to participate in the overall situation of the three-party game, instead of just sitting back and watching Han and Wei vie for supremacy and waiting for destruction!
Furthermore, there will be no war between Wei and Wu in the short term.
Neither of us need to worry about being stabbed in the back!
Very easy to understand.
Without Wei to contain the Han, it would have been impossible for Wu to defend Jingbei against the Han army.
In the same way, before the Wei State expelled the Han army from Guanzhong, it would not destroy the help it had finally gathered with its own hands.
In any case, both Wei and Wu are in urgent need of time to restore their national strength, and they all need each other's help to tide over the difficulties.
As for what happens in the future...
Is there anything in the world that remains unchanged?
More than ten years ago, when the state of Wu and the Han Dynasty declared an alliance, Sun Quan did not expect that Jiangdong would become the weakest!
Take one step and take a look.
With this in mind, Sun Quan used the excuse of jointly sending troops to attack Wei with the Han Dynasty. After taking over the Xiangfan front that Wei had replaced, he also wrote a letter and transferred it from Dongsan County to Hanzhong. He "joyfully" announced the achievements of Jiangdong and was very happy. The words "Sorrow for Heaven and Compassion for Humanity" persuaded the Han people to cherish the power of the people and not to engage in military force and conquest without end.
This is the reason why the Prime Minister and Wei Yan's troops turned back after chasing for half a day.
Although everyone in the Han Dynasty was mentally prepared for Jiangdong's betrayal, they also felt that even if Jiangdong betrayed, he would not be able to invade Nanzhong or Yong'an.
But no one thought that Wei's courage would be so great this time!
The entire Jingxiang front was given to Jiangdong, so that Jiangdong could threaten Hanzhong County!
The Han Dynasty was not prepared for a simultaneous war with Wei and Wu, whether it was the storage of the treasury or the deployment of troops.
But what Sun Quan didn't know was that he made the wrong move.
And it's very wrong.
Perhaps it was because the Wei State did this intentionally and wanted to divert the disaster eastward.
After Cao Rui and Sima Yi dismissed their troops and returned, they clearly had the intention of sharing Guanzhong with the Han in terms of defense and troop deployment.
It was to divide the army into two parts.
One is to use Chang'an City as the back town for stationing troops, abandon Qixian County, use Zuo Fengyi's Gukou County as the outpost garrison point in the Jingshui River Valley, and combine the defense lines of Zuo Fengyi's northern counties to form a matrix defense line.
On the other hand, Huaili was used as a garrison point, Yi County was abandoned, and Meiyang and Wugong counties were used as outpost garrison points to curb the Han army's continued eastward advance.
This approach was equivalent to giving the Han army space to build a defense line.
For example, the Han Dynasty only needs to use Chencang City as a back town and garrison troops in Wuzhangyuan and Qishan, so that the newly acquired areas in the rear do not have to worry about war; just by garrisoning troops in Qixian County, it can intimidate Jingzhao and Zuo Fengyi.
In other words, the Han Dynasty only needs to leave an army of 70,000 to 80,000 people to guard Guanzhong without any worries!
We can also have some spare strength to dedicate several troops and attack the Wu Kingdom that has betrayed the alliance!
But, will the Han Dynasty attack the Kingdom of Wu?
"The rats from Jiangdong are all treacherous and capricious villains!"
Wei Yan, who had just returned from transferring troops, when the Prime Minister gathered with the generals to discuss matters, he asked for orders with all his hair open without waiting for others to say, "The hatred of Xiangfan has not been over, but now he has betrayed my great Han Dynasty. If we don't raise an army to fight against it, how can we bring peace to the common people?" I am so angry! If I am not talented, if the prime minister gives me 20,000 elite troops to march eastward from Hanzhong, I will be able to defeat the three eastern counties, restore all the counties in Jingxiang, and avenge the Marquis of Guan! I will avenge the hatred of the late Emperor Xue Yiling!"
The one who was slow to ask for orders was naturally Guan Xing.
His father and brother died at the hands of Jiangdong, and he was the one who most wanted to kill Sun Quan and flatten Jiangdong.
Now that I have the opportunity, how can I still hold back?
When Wei Yanfu asked for orders, his eyes turned red, and he stepped out to ask for orders, "Prime Minister, Xing also thinks that we cannot allow the rats from the east of the Yangtze River to repeatedly provoke our mighty Han Dynasty! If the Prime Minister intends to send troops to attack them, I would like to ask you to use this headquarters as the front line of the army." Ministry, don’t turn your heels until you die!”
Immediately afterwards, Fu Qian, who was standing behind the prime minister to act as a recorder and had no authority, also came out in tears and asked himself to be a pawn in the attack on Wu.
The other generals who were qualified to participate in the military discussion agreed that they should send troops to attack Wu.
Jiang Dong's backstabbing made everyone filled with righteous indignation.
"Jiangdong betrayed the alliance and ruined my big man's plan to restore the old capital. It is unforgivable! Our army will definitely raise troops to fight against it!"
Seeing that everyone was indignant, the Prime Minister expressed relief and said, "Before raising the army, our army still needs to settle down in Guanzhong. Don't mess up the deployment because of Jiangdong. Well, you all can go back first to supervise the officers and soldiers, and wait for me to report." After the imperial court, we will discuss the matter of sending troops."
After hearing this, everyone dispersed happily.
Only Zheng Pu, who had just arrived from Yangcheng, was signaled by the prime minister's wink to stay.
