Chapter 1724 : Chapter 870: Sun Ce's Prospect (1)

Chapter 870 Sun Ce’s Outlook

However, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu failed to capture Jiangling with their troops. Although they returned along the river, they immediately invaded Changsha and took Guiyang, Lingling, Wuling and other counties, and stationed them in Gong'an, just across the river from Lu Su in Jiangling City.

It's just relative.

Gongan is not a county, but a county. Because it faces Jiangling across the river, its geographical location is very important. After all, the south of Gongan is the vast four counties of Jingnan. If Gongan is breached, the four counties will transform from the hinterland into

It became a battlefield.

Historically, after Liu Bei attacked Changsha, Guiyang, Lingling, Wuling and other counties, he also stationed himself in Gong'an, across the river from the north. It was not until Zhou Yu of the Eastern Wu Dynasty captured Jiangling City and lent Jiangling City to Liu Bei that Liu Bei's life was over.

A little better.

Now, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and other tens of thousands of troops are also stationed here.[

That day the sun was shining brightly and there was no cloud in the sky.

Outside the Gong'an City, countless camps were erected, which stretched for several miles and were very spectacular. The Gong'an County Town in the middle was not tall, but it looked very strong. Patrol soldiers were constantly passing by on the city, and the security was very tight.

There is a county government office in the city, which is currently being used as the residence of the Marquis of Wu for Sun Ce to live in. At this moment, in the front yard of the county government office, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were drinking. The two of them were putting a glass to their mouths. No matter how they looked at it, they felt unhappy.

good.

"It's a strange thing to have won the city but feel unhappy." Sun Ce drank another glass. Unfortunately, he was still sober because of his heavy drinking capacity. He laughed bitterly and laughed at himself.

"Ah, what an anecdote for the ages." Zhou Yu felt the same and said with a wry smile.

Just as Sun Ce said, although he won the city, he was not happy. Just as Liu Feng said, these territories are vast and sparsely populated, with only a few hundred thousand people in total.

And only Nan County, where Jiangling City is located, has a population of hundreds of thousands. Compared with Jiangling, the four counties in Jingnan are really like chicken ribs, and it is a pity to throw them away as they are tasteless.

More importantly, Jiangdong's power was contained in the south of the Yangtze River. No matter whether we took the road north to Jiangling or north to Shouchun, Yangzhou, it would be impossible.

If the Han Dynasty is not destroyed, Jiangdong will always be in the south. This is so shameful.

"Now that the heroes have gathered together, it is difficult for us to go north and join forces with the heroes. What do you think Gong Jin should do next?" Sun Ce is also a hero after all. After feeling for a moment, he returned to reality and asked in a deep voice.

"Without us, we will make an alliance in Xiangyang, attack Nanyang, and contain the power of the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty in the north has Tongguan, Qingni Pass and other passes in the west, Hulao Pass in the east, Xu County as a place to maneuver, the Yellow River in the north, and the South in the south

There is peace again. I am afraid that it will be difficult for the northern princes to make achievements. Now

The most important thing for us is to digest half of Jiangxia, Changsha and other four counties, so as to replenish energy, destroy the mountains and rivers within the territory, and strengthen ourselves. In this way, both the Northern Expedition and self-protection are feasible, and it can be said that it is an advance.

You can attack, retreat or defend." After hearing this, Zhou Yu pondered for a moment and then said.

In fact, if the Northern Expedition is an incentive, if the Han Dynasty is difficult to conquer, then Lu Su's defense of Jiangling will be equivalent to strangling Jiangdong's neck. It is still impossible for Jiangdong to want to go to the Northern Expedition.

But in Zhou Yu's opinion, after digesting Changsha, Jiangxia and other counties, there should be no problem in self-protection.

"Alas, this is all we can do now." Sun Ce lamented after hearing this and said sadly.
