Chapter 205: Unexpected

It is said that the Jiangdong water and land army went straight to Jingzhou along the Xiangjiang River. Although the Jingzhou army continued to encounter obstacles along the road, they were all vulnerable to a single blow. At this time, the Jiangdong army was less than twenty miles away from Jingzhou City!

Standing on the flagship deck, Sun Jian saw a fishing village on the river bank not far away. He couldn't help but moved his heart. He raised his finger and said, "I remember here. At this time, Xuejia Fishing Village is not far from Jingzhou!" There was a mountain on the bank of the river in front, where the river turned a bend around the mountain, "Turn there, you can see Jingzhou City!" Sun Jian's eyes showed the color of memory, and he sighed: "The last time I came to Jingzhou. It's still more than ten years ago!" Then he said proudly: "Jingzhou is the prosperous capital of Jingchu. It is really a jewel in Liu Biao's hands!" Zhou Tai said excitedly: "Jingzhou will soon be the lord's! "Sun Jian laughed loudly.

Standing aside, Zhou Yu smiled and said, "With Liu Biao's cowardice and incompetence, I'm afraid I've been so scared at this moment! There shouldn't be any suspense in this battle, Jingzhou can easily get it!"

Sun Jian contemptuously said: "Liu Biao is just a useless coward! How can he occupy the important land of Jingchu if it is not based on the royal blood!" Then he looked into the distance, fascinated, and muttered: "Jingzhou is just the first step in my hegemony! Next, soldiers will enter Luoyang to destroy Chen Lang!"

Zhou Yu said: "Then occupy the world, look down on the world and move on standby. With the master's prowess, he will surely achieve an unstoppable cause forever!"

Sun Jian couldn't help but feel passionate, he just felt that the whole world seemed to be under control!

call out! The scream of a screaming arrow suddenly came from the shore.

Everyone couldn't help but look towards the shore and saw a red feather knight standing on the shore. Zhou Yu frowned and said, "It's the biography of Hong Yu! Is there any emergency military situation!?" Sun Jian immediately asked him to put down the boat to pick up the Hong Yu messenger. The so-called red feather messenger was actually a messenger of emergency military information in the Han Dynasty. Because of the eye-catching red feathers on the helmet, it was called the red feather messenger. The Jiangdong Army is also considered to be the Han Army, so it also conveys emergency military information. In fact, it is not just Jiangdong Army, Yingyang Army, Jingzhou Army, etc., all the army of the Han Dynasty used the Red Feather Messenger to convey emergency military information!

Soon after, the Hongyu messenger was picked up on the flagship, met Sun Jian, and said, "Master, the Yingyang army crossed the Yangtze River from Baling. Baling has fallen and Changsha County is in danger! Please come back to help quickly!"

When everyone heard this suddenly, they only felt a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and they were so startled that they didn't react for a while. Sun Jian asked anxiously: "What did you say? Ying Yangjun crossed the Yangtze River and approached Changsha? I heard that right?"

The Hongyu messenger said anxiously: "It is true. The current military situation is very urgent. Madam, please come back to help as soon as possible!"

Sun Jian couldn't believe it and shouted: "This is absolutely impossible!"

Zhou Yu asked the messenger: "What is going on, why did the Yingyang army suddenly cross the Yangtze River and occupy Baling, dangerous Changsha? (The so-called Changsha here is not Changsha in modern society, but Linxiang City, Hunan Province. Under the jurisdiction of Yueyang) How did Baling fall?"

The messenger said: "It was a surprise attack by the Ying Yang army led by Chen Lang!"

Sun Jian said angrily: "Yingyang Army fought Ce'er on the east bank of the Xiangjiang River. How could it suddenly appear to the west?"

Zhou Yu frowned and said, "On the east bank of the Xiangjiang River are only Zhao Yun and his 10,000 cavalry. It seems that Chen Lang has played a trick on us! We are all hit!"

Sun Jian frowned, and said grumpily, "Even so, Baling has 10,000 defenders left by me. How could it be captured by the enemy across the Yangtze without a sound?"

The messenger looked hesitant.

Upon seeing this, Sun Jian immediately knew that there was another hidden story, and shouted, "Quickly tell! What is going on?"

The messenger did not dare to conceal it, and said: "Return to the lord, because Lord Sun Mo cancelled the night patrol, and the enemy army launched a surprise attack at night, so..." Friends who have read the previous article must know that Sun Mo is Sun Jian's cousin. He was originally Lujiang prefect, but was later transferred to Changsha by Sun Jian to be responsible for the civil affairs and defense of Changsha County and its surrounding areas. People in our country are influenced by Confucianism and always think that their relatives are the most reliable. Therefore, the proprietors of the past dynasties like to use relatives to defend vital points as important tasks, as everyone knows it is often these relatives who have bad things! Although Liu Biao is so, Sun Jian seems to be unavoidable!

Sun Jian was furious and cursed: "I have ordered him to be careful and not to be slacking. How can he take my words as the wind in his ears!"

Zhou Yu clasped his fist and said: "Lord, Changsha is our foundation. Once we lose our defense, the military will be in turmoil. We must return to Changsha as soon as possible!"

Sun Jian was very unwilling, and cursed: "Damn Chen Lang! What did I do when I beat Jingzhou? I interfered arbitrarily! I am not at odds with him!" Then he said: "Changsha has 20,000 defenders, and Chen Lang can't even measure him shortly. Within time, the plan to capture Jingzhou remains unchanged! Once Liu Biao is resolved, I will clean him up again!"

Zhou Yu was a little worried, and asked the messenger, "How many soldiers and horses does Chen Lang have?" The messenger said, "About forty thousand people, all infantry!"

Zhou Yu said to Sun Jian: "Changsha has only 20,000 defenders. I am worried that it will be no match for the 40,000 eagles, tigers and wolves!" Sun Jian frowned.

Zhou Yu clasped his fist and said: "Lord, Changsha is to us as Jingzhou is to Liu Biao. If we fail, it is no small matter! At that time, the military will inevitably collapse. If the Jingzhou army takes advantage of the situation to counterattack, the consequences will be unpredictable! Great things should not be so risky! I think the offensive should be suspended immediately. Jingzhou, return to Changsha as soon as possible to expel Ying Yang army!"

Sun Jian hesitated for a moment, and cursed angrily: "Damn Chen Lang!"

When Liu Biao learned that Sun Jian’s army was only less than twenty miles away from Jingzhou, he was panicked and immediately decided to abandon Jingzhou regardless of his son Liu Qi’s advice.

However, just as the soldiers and civilians in Jingzhou were waiting to escape, suddenly there was news that the Jiangdong army suddenly turned back and retreated! Liu Biao just felt unbelievable, and hurriedly sent someone to confirm, and soon the definitive news came that the Jiangdong water and land army had indeed retreated! Kuai Yue happily clasped his fist towards Liu Biao and said, "Master, this is really a blessing to the Lord!" Liu Biao nodded with infinite joy, and then sent someone to the south to find out the situation. He wanted to figure out why the Jiangdong Army suddenly retreated!

At this moment, the messenger sent by Chen Lang begged to see Liu Biao.

Liu Biao hurriedly summoned, the messenger came in, clasped his fist and said, "My master-in-law asked me to inform Master Liu that my master-in-law has led an army to cross the Yangtze River successfully from Baling and has approached Changsha! Please don't worry, Master Liu!"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help being taken aback. Kuai Yue exclaimed: "The general has actually approached the Sun family's lair?!"

The messenger said: "My Patriarch said that Changsha is extremely important to the Sun family. Once it is lost, the Jiangdong Army will inevitably be upset! Please Master Liu immediately mobilize all the Jingzhou Army to counterattack the Jiangdong Army and bite them! As long as the news of Changsha's fall reaches the Jiangdong Army, Jiangdong When the army is in a mess, Master Liu can take advantage of the situation and defeat them in one go!"

Liu Biao hesitated, and said, "I still need to consider this!"

The messenger said anxiously: "Master Liu, the fighter is fleeting. If you can't seize this opportunity, it will be very difficult to defeat Jiangdong Army!"

Liu Biao smiled and said, "You have worked hard all the way back, so go down and rest first." The messenger said, "Lord Liu, please give me an explanation, so that I can give back to my master!"

Liu looked embarrassed. Cai Tao rushed to the messenger in an angry voice: "Why are you so ignorant of current affairs! It's a trivial thing to do the army, we naturally have to deliberate carefully before we can act!" The messenger frowned, clasped his fists and said, "If this is the case, I will give back. My lord is here!" He bowed to Liu Biao and hurriedly went.

Liu Biao looked at everyone under him and asked, "What do you think I should do?"

Cai Hao clasped his fists and smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, in fact, this thing couldn't be easier. We just need to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight! When Chen Lang and Sun Jian fight and both lose, we will send out the army to fight back, I believe we can drive Jiang Dong army back. Jiangdong!"

Kuailiang thought: "This is a good idea!"

Liu Biao nodded, determined to do so, but sent a messenger to inform Chen Lang that he would mobilize an army to counterattack Jiangdong Army as soon as possible according to his request.

Kuailiang came to Mr. Shui Jing’s home in Jingzhou and was very happy to hold his fist and smile at Mr. Sima Hui, who was sitting in the pavilion drinking tea, and said, "Old sir, I am coming to see you!"

With a surprised look on his face, Sima Hui handed out a teacup, stood up and asked Kuai Liang to sit down. Sima Wei asked incomprehensibly: "Isn't your lord going to escape Jingzhou with Liu Jingzhou? How can there be leisure and leisure to see the old?"

Kuailiang smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Don't leave, don't leave!" Then Chen Lang raided Baling and approached Changsha, and Sun Jian hurriedly retired, then said with emotion: "General Ying Yang. Sure enough, he is using his troops like a god! The army has an amazing ability to attack! None of us thought that he would threaten Changsha with a strange force to force Baling!"

Sima Hui stroked his beard and smiled and said, "General Yingyang is a hero born out of the sky, and his performance is considered normal!" Then he asked, "I wonder what General Yingyang plans next?"

Kuiliang picked up the teapot and filled a cup, took a sip, put down the teacup, and said, "General Yingyang sent someone to ask the lord to do all the soldiers of Jingzhou and bite the Jiangdong army, waiting for him to break Changsha. I Jun Hao defeated Jiang Dong Army in one go!"

Sima Hui couldn't help high-fiving; "A good strategy! Changsha is the foundation of the Sun family. If it falls, the Jiangdong Army will inevitably be agitated, and Liu Jingzhou will counterattack at this time, and it will definitely break the Jiangdong Army!" Then he asked. : "Has Liu Jingzhou agreed?"

Kui Liang shook his head and smiled: "My Patriarch has another clever plan. My Patriarch thinks that even if the army counterattacks at this time, even if the final success is achieved, it will inevitably lose a lot, so he decided to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight! After the two of them fight and lose, Our army will fight back again! What do the old gentlemen think?"
