To the north, in order to contain Cao Ren's power, the most resourceful Lu Su was sent to lead the army. [Baidu search www
But for the war in the south, Liu Feng sent Huang Zhong to divide his troops to attack. On the one hand, he trusted Huang Zhong's offensive ability, but at the same time he underestimated Jingzhou's defensive strength.
Liu Feng was already arrogant about Jingzhou.
But on the other hand, Liu Feng's bottom line was the safety of Xiangyang, so he left troops and let Meng Jian guard it. On the one hand, it was to prevent Huang Zu of Jiangxia from taking advantage of the situation to attack, and on the other hand, he also had the vague intention of guarding against the people of Jiangdong.[
It can be said that Liu Feng had expected Jiangdong to send troops. Moreover, Zhou Yu was the person Liu Feng focused on.
Because before the war, when Liu Feng issued Huang Zhong's order to send troops, he also sent a letter to Meng Jian.
The letter has only two meanings.
There are many famous generals and generals in Jiangdong, many of whom are both brave and strategic. Sun Ce is brave and good at fighting, brave and strategic. But in terms of many tricks, there is only one, and that is Zhou Yu.
This person must not be underestimated.
Huang Zhong was so brave that he was invincible in almost all attacks. What was even more rare was that he was over fifty years old and had rich experience in leading troops. Even if he met Zhou Yu and was defeated, he would still be undefeated. You must trust him.
This letter is to be wary of Zhou Yu and believe that Huang Zhong is a general.
When Liu Feng wrote the letter, he was just worried that Meng Jian was just starting out and would not be clear about the strength of the enemy and ourselves, so he made some important points.
At first, Meng Jian paid great attention to the letter after receiving it. However, as Huang Zhong won every victory, this letter gradually faded away.
And suddenly I heard this "Lu Feng" say that Huang Zhong was defeated by Zhou Yu.
Meng Jian suddenly realized that there was fraud in this. He had just joined not long ago and was not sure about Huang Zhong's abilities, but Meng Jian believed in Liu Feng.
Huang Zhong is brave and good at fighting and will not be defeated easily.
Although the so-called "Lu Feng" among the defeated troops under the city had withstood his test, Meng Jian believed in Liu Feng's judgment even more. This was not because Meng Jian was not confident.
It was because he had just joined and was just starting out. However, when Liu Feng was eight years old, he used various means to escape from Xudu and conquered Lu Su with his cleverness. From then on, he was out of control.
In one fell swoop, they occupied the four counties of Xinye, Nanxiang, Xiangyang, and Shangyong, and accomplished something that no one else had accomplished in their lifetime.
Meng Jian admired him very much and surrendered.
Meng Jian is very confident, but compared with Liu Feng, Meng Jian is really not confident. Of course, in this case, Meng Jian also believes in Liu Feng's judgment more.
Huang Zhong is brave and good at fighting, is older and more prudent, and has rich experience in leading troops, so he cannot easily lose to Zhou Yu.
There is something wrong with the "defeated army" under this city.[
It is estimated that Zhou Yu never dreamed that the situation would develop like this. Meng Jian was a fledgling figure, and his lack of experience was certainly his weakness.
But it has also become his strength.
Precisely because he was just starting out, he was very open-minded and did not blindly trust his own abilities. Precisely because he was just starting out and had not made any achievements, Liu Feng was highly regarded for his experience and ability.
These two points caused Zhou Yu to definitely fail today.
No matter how well prepared Zhou Yu was, and even if he found the most suitable and experienced "Lu Feng" to impersonate him, he still would not be able to enter Xiangyang City.
"Uncle Lu Dub has been traveling all the way, but it is a blessing. Now that he has returned to Xiangyang City, I will naturally comfort him. Come, prepare food and drinks, and leave the city."
