"Sun Ce?" Yan Xiang stroked his white beard and finally decided not to persuade him further.
Although his original intention was to temporarily cease the war for a period of time to recuperate and develop production, it was not impossible to attack Sun Ce.
Continuing to attack Nanyang was because it was difficult to conquer and it was just a waste of national power. Yan Xiang then insisted on opposing Yuan Shu to continue the attack.
But if it is to attack Sun Ce, it is not impossible to send troops as long as something can be gained.
The situation on Sun Ce's side is not optimistic, and it can even be said to have suffered to the extreme. Sun Ce's ship can almost be said to be on the verge of falling apart.
At the cost of a county's land in exchange for Zhang Dingbian's limited support, coupled with the abilities of Sun Wu and Zhou Yu, Cao Cao was indeed blocked.
Although he was just blocking and had no power to retreat the enemy, Sun Wu was not in a hurry. He knew very well that Cao Cao's logistical pressure was also very high. As time went by, Cao Cao himself would have to retreat obediently.
No matter how sharp Cao Cao's gold-touching captain is, he can't always gain something. Although Cao Cao got a batch of grain and grass support from Yuan Shao by touching the gold-level captain this time, Sun Wu didn't believe it. He could still
There's the next batch, and there's the next batch.
Sun Wu had a good idea, but unfortunately, third-party forces also intervened.
Zhang Dingbian just cut off a county's territory from Sun Ce for nothing. Can Zhao Kuangyin not be jealous when he sees this?
Therefore, Sun Ce, who was already in a lot of troubles, also aroused the covetousness of Zhao Kuangyin at this time. However, let alone, with the current situation of Sun Ce, it is like meat on the chopping board.
However, Zhao Kuangyin had just captured Xuzhou, and the next moment he was engaged in a real battle with Chi You, and he himself was relatively weak.
Moreover, after that, in order to prevent Chi You from seizing Qingzhou and becoming stronger, Chen Bing was deployed at the junction of Yan and Xu, and Zhu Yuanzhang in the south also had to be careful on guard.
Therefore, Zhao Kuangyin did not have many spare troops in his hands. He could solve the problem in a "peaceful" way and get what he wanted, and Zhao Kuangyin was not willing to use weapons rashly.
Therefore, under the advice of Yi Yin and Zhao Pu, not long ago, Zhao Kuangyin sent General Gao Huaide and Chen Bingpei to the border with Pengcheng, with the intention of telling Sun Ce to give the benefits as soon as possible, and Zhao Kuangyin could not do less if he had the Yellow Turban. Otherwise,
Don't blame him, Zhao Kuangyin, for being rude.
Sun Ce had a strong character and would rather die than bow to Yuan Shu. Therefore, he always had to have some troops to guard against Xian Zhen. It would be difficult for the remaining troops to fight Cao Cao. If Zhao Kuangyin wanted to attack him, Sun Ce would have no choice.
In this way, even if Sun Ce doesn't want to, given Sun Ce's current situation, he, Zhao Kuangyin, can abuse him as he pleases.
At that time, if Sun Ce is really unwilling, Zhao Kuangyin will ask Gao Huaide to wait for an opportunity at the border. When Sun Ce is about to lose his strength in Cao Cao's hands, he will seize the opportunity to send troops to divide Cao Cao's victory.
Although there is no concrete result between Zhao Kuangyin and Sun Ce yet, it can be expected that under the siege from all sides, the end of the Sun family is not far away. Among the three heroes of the late Han Dynasty, if not unexpected, the Sun family will probably be the second
One left.
"Your Majesty, I have recently received news that Sun Ce is close to running out of fuel, and I am afraid that there is not much time left. Send troops at this time, firstly, to relieve your majesty's hatred, and secondly, to attack the city and plunder the territory without wasting any effort!
"Li Shui said very calmly.
Although the talents under Sun Ce are outstanding, Sun Wu, Zhou Yu, and Luo Hongxin are among the best in the world. Lu Su, Wu Jie, Wu Lin, Wang Jian, Sun Chengzong, Zhou Fashang, and Wu Mingche can also be said to be heroes of the moment.
However, the building is about to collapse, and how can manpower stop it. Sun Ce's power conditions are already in tatters, and leaks are everywhere. Sun Wu and Zhou Yu can make up for one or two, but they can't make up for them all.
Moreover, the most important thing is that Sun Ce's body can no longer hold up. He was seriously injured in the first place, and he was forced to climb up from the collapse to encourage the morale of the army. No one is made of iron. His willpower to persist until now is amazing.
.
In the future, when Sun Ce dies, the Sun family's biggest crisis will come. In such a short period of time, two consecutive masters have been changed, and there will be great turmoil within the Sun family.
No matter how outstanding the talent is, they must adapt to the general trend, otherwise, they will be beaten to death.
"Okay, I am following my good deeds. Since both my dear friends agree to attack Sun Ce, let's attack Sun Ce first!" Yuan Shu changed into a comfortable posture and said enthusiastically.
"I have ordered the three generals Pang Juan, Wang Mang, and Pei Xingjian to temporarily withdraw their troops, and Xian Zhen and Jiang Xiaobai will serve as generals and deputy generals to send troops to exterminate the Sun family's rebels!"
Yuan Shu's forces are fighting here, and there are constant small battles. When the war situation comes, generals big and small will definitely have the opportunity to stand out.
Now, among the generals under Yuan Shu, although Pang Juan and Xian Zhen still have the highest status, one in the east and one in the west, dominating the battlefield on both sides. But under these two people, there are all kinds of monsters and monsters.
Kuang Zhang and Pei Xingjian, who were already well-known among Yuan Shu, as well as the newly-emerged Wang Zhi (the prince became his father), Wei Si, Wang Chang, Lu Meng and other generals, have all become famous in recent times.
Although these people were apparently loyal generals to Shuba, secretly Kuang Zhang and Wang Zhi (the prince's father) were Jiang Xiaobai's generals, and Wei Si and Wang Chang were Wang Mang's confidants.
Although Weiss also has ambitions, there is no room for such ambitions to develop. Wang Mang and Jiang Xiaobai each have a large number of followers overtly and covertly, but as for Weiss, at this stage, he only has one clan brother, Wei Chenghe'er.
Wei Jing is willing to listen to him!
Under such circumstances, how can you make him have any rebellious thoughts? Even if he has any, they can only be temporarily buried in his heart.
Except for Kuang Zhang, Wang Zhi, Wei Si, and Wang Chang, Pei Xingjian and Lu Meng belonged to the lineage of Lishui.
Of course, at this time, Lu Meng was just a young man who gained a small reputation for his bravery in battles. He was still far from the level of the famous Soochow general in the future.
Lu Meng, a native of Runan, joined the army with his brother-in-law Deng Dang. Because of his bravery in combat and his fearlessness in death, Pei Xingjian paid attention to him.
Moreover, Pei Xingjian discovered that this boy Lu Meng could not only be a fierce general. This boy's learning ability was astonishing. He could be regarded as a piece of rough jade, but he had not been polished yet.
Out of cherishment and love for talents, Pei Xingjian took Lü Meng with him. While fighting, he taught Lü Meng some military skills. Although these two people were called superiors and subordinates, they actually had a master-student relationship.
