- Yan Liang threw the piece of information on the table, with a hint of coldness in his brows.
The soldiers left and returned. After a while, the curtains were lifted and Ling Tong stepped into the big tent.
Yan Liang looked up and saw that Ling Tong was in much better spirits than before.
¡°Perhaps it was because of the battle a few days ago that he was relieved of a lot of burdens in his heart, and his listless spirit was cheered up a little.
"My lord has summoned the generals here. What are your orders?" Ling Tong bowed his hands in greeting.
Yan Liang raised his hand slightly, signaling Ling Tong to sit down.
Ling Tong, who was sitting down on his knees, saw that Yan Liang's expression seemed a bit solemn, and he had a vague premonition of uneasiness in his heart.
The minister sat down, Yan Liang sighed, and said slowly: "Gongji, I can't stop you."
Sorry for me?
Ling Tong looked stunned, a little confused for a moment, but couldn't figure out what Yan Liang meant by this.
"Why did my lord say this? The general really doesn't understand." Ling Tong said blankly.
Yan Liang nodded slightly, hesitated for a moment, handed the piece of paper to Ling Tong, and said silently: "Read it yourself."
Ling Tong stared at the silk book, and the ominous premonition in his heart could not help but become stronger. For a moment, he even dared not pick it up.
After hesitating for a moment, Ling Tong still took the piece of silk book with suspicion and uneasiness.
His eyes glanced at the black ink stains. When Ling Tong saw clearly the contents of the book, his whole body froze there, and his young face was instantly filled with panic, grief and anger.
The intelligence from Jiangdong stated that Sun Quan, in a rage because of Ling Tong's surrender, had ordered the more than forty members of Ling Cao's clan to be beheaded in public.
The Ling clan has been destroyed!
Ling Tong's hands began to tremble violently, and his entire face became as pale as paper. His teeth were biting his lips tightly, and blood was almost soaked in his eyes. It was even more spraying with flames of grief and indignation.
"In today's world, it is not the master who chooses his ministers, but the ministers who choose their master. There are many surrendered masters under my command, but even people like Yuan Tan have never angered the families of Wen Ziqin and others because of their surrender. Jiang Shi didn't expect that Sun Zhongmou's temperament was so narrow."
When Yan Liang was sighing, the veins in Ling Tong's clenched fist were already protruding and almost bursting.
Yan Liang continued: "I forced Gongji to surrender that day because he admired Gongji's talent so much that he wanted to use it for me. However, I didn't expect that Gongji suffered the disaster of being destroyed by Sun Quan. Speaking of which, Ben I¡¯m really sorry for you, Gongji.¡±
Yan Liang was not afraid of Ling Tong¡¯s blame and frankly admitted his part of the responsibility.
Ling Tong, who was in grief and anger, shook his head and said in a hoarse voice: "In the battle at Tushan that day, the lord also gave the last general a chance. The last general was not as skilled as others and lost the bet to the lord. The last general was willing to admit defeat. Surrendering to the lord is a matter of course. The only one the general hates is the ruthless Bi Yaner!"
When Sun Quan was mentioned, Ling Tong was so angry that he gritted his teeth. The clenched fists clenched.
Yan Liang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Ling Tong was indeed a sensible person and knew who was responsible for the destruction of his Ling family.
At this time, Ling Tong stood up suddenly. He said angrily: "My lord, I will lead an army to serve as my lord's vanguard. I will kill him at Moling. I will cut off Sun Quan's head with my own hands and offer it to my lord. This will be considered as revenge for our Ling clan."
Because Ling Tong was exterminated by Sun Quan, the little bit of guilt he felt towards Sun Quan that remained in his heart had now turned into endless resentment.
At this time, Ling Tong could only wish to cut Sun Quan into pieces with his own hands to vent his hatred.
Yan Liangliang felt regretful, but also a little relieved.
Although it was indeed a tragedy that Ling Tong was exterminated, Sun Quan's actions forced Ling Tong to completely return to his heart, which can be regarded as a blessing among the misfortunes.
At that moment, Yan Liang also stood up enthusiastically, stroked Ling Tong's shoulder, and said boldly: "Gongji, don't worry, I will swear here that when Jiangdong is wiped out one day, Sun Quan will be handed over to you personally. Whether you want to kill or behead him, it¡¯s all up to you, and I will give my condolences to your Majesty and the spirits of your Ling clan.¡±
Ling Tong wanted to avenge his family, and Yan Liang wanted to destroy Sun Quan. At this moment, the goals of his two principals reached an unprecedented consensus.
And when Soochow is wiped out in the future, Yan Liang will not leave Sun Quan's life behind, but will hand it over to Ling Tong, which is just a favor.
Ling Tong received Yan Liang's promise, and despite being sad and angry, he couldn't help but look grateful.
He knelt down on the ground, cupped his hands and said with emotion: "IfAt this point, the general will be willing to go through fire and water for his lord without any hesitation. "
"Gongji, please get up quickly." Yan Liang hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Ling Tong up, with a look of relief on his face, and said boldly: "If I can fight side by side with a good general like Gongji, I won't have to worry about failing to achieve a great cause."
Ling Tong was moved and asked hurriedly: "I don't know when the lord plans to send troops to wipe out Jiangdong?"
Yan Liang knew that he was eager for revenge and wanted to send troops immediately to fight Sun Quan to the death. However, as the leader of the three armies, Yan Liang had to stay calm at this moment.
He patted Ling Tong on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, there will be a time for you to show off your skills and avenge your father, but it is not this time. You have to wait patiently for a while to achieve the goal."
Ling Tong felt a little regretful in his heart, but he immediately said seriously: "A gentleman takes revenge, and it is never too late in ten years. As long as he can kill Sun Quan and avenge his father, I will wait no matter how long."
"It won't take ten years, it's almost over."
Yan Liang¡¯s words were profound, and in his sharp eyes, cold murderous intent was quietly gathering.
¡¡
That day, after comforting Ling Tong, Yan Liang turned all his attention to Soochow's movements.
Xu You's painstakingly managed network of agents once again played a huge role. The agents scattered in Soochow continued to send information about the movements of the Wu army to Fankou one after another like snow flakes.
Soon after Sun Quan¡¯s assembly order was issued, Huang Gai, Chen Wu, Dong Xi, Zhou Tai, Pan Zhang and other generals quickly led their personal troops and began to assemble towards Moling.
In addition to the troops and horses in the Jiangdong area, Sun Quan even mobilized about 7,000 troops and horses from the Shouchun line.
There are various signs that Sun Quan is really angered, and he plans to take action this time.
Yan Liang knew very well that underneath Sun Quan's appearance of sending troops out of anger, there were still helpless difficulties.
Sun Quan¡¯s difficulty was that Chaisang¡¯s farmland was destroyed.
Now that the autumn harvest is just around the corner, there will be no grain harvest in Chaisang. This means that from this autumn until the next autumn, the entire Chaisang army and civilians must transport grain supplies from Jiangdong.
Of course Sun Quan could afford to feed a single soldier of more than 10,000 soldiers, but in addition to more than 10,000 soldiers, there were nearly 30,000 civilians in the entire Chaisang front line. This means that Sun Quan had to support 40,000 mouths for a whole year. This in itself is a huge expense.
In addition, after the autumn harvest, Yan Liang is bound to launch a large-scale attack on Chaisang. At that time, Lu Su's army of more than 10,000 numbers will not be able to resist Yan Liang's attack.
If you want to keep Chaisang, you must increase your troops and the army. As a result, Chaisang's consumption of food and grass will increase dramatically.
But Yan Liang, who relied on Jingzhou and had plenty of food and grass, had sufficient capital to fight a war of attrition with Sun Quan.
In the end, the person who cannot bear it first must be Sun Quan.
Of course, Sun Quan could also give up Chaisang and withdraw all the soldiers and civilians from that painful place.
But Sun Quan also knew very well that Yan Liang, who was already full-fledged at this time, already coveted his Jiangdong. As long as he dared to give up Chaisang, Yan Liang would definitely follow and extend his power.
And when Yan Liang establishes a foothold in Chaisang and uses it as a springboard for his invasion of Jiangdong, the threat to Jiangdong will be absolutely fatal.
Therefore, Sun Quan had no choice but to go to war and chose to attack Yan Liang at such a time.
He wanted to rely on the advantage of the navy to attack Jingzhou in one go before Yan Liang's navy flourished, seize the land he dreamed of, completely eliminate the threat from the upper reaches, and occupy the entire Yangtze River.
Sun Quan wanted to take over the entire Yangtze River, and Yan Liang wanted to eliminate the scourge of Soochow. At this time, the two of them were like fire and water, and it was time to decide between one and the other.
Yan Liang would not flinch at all. Just when Sun Quan's troops gathered, he also began to quickly mobilize his troops.
Lu Meng, who was stationed in Yidu, Wei Yan, who was stationed in Hanchang, and Huang Zhong, who was stationed in Xiangyang, received orders and rushed towards Fankou from all directions.
Seven days later, the number of Yan Liang's troops gathered in Fankou reached 30,000, including 20,000 navy troops. This was almost all of Yan Liang's existing navy troops.
Excluding the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses stationed in the north, Yan Liang could use nearly 50,000 land and sea soldiers and horses to fight Soochow.
Among them, there were 20,000 troops and 10,000 infantry troops. Yan Liang left them in Xiakou as a reserve force to take care of all directions.
The other 10,000-strong naval force is still in the process of training.Yan Liang would not easily put Huang Yueying's fleet of vehicles and ships into the battlefield before it was completed.
Soochow.
Although Shouchun was captured and Huainan was completely occupied, the population under Sun Quan's rule increased dramatically, and the number of soldiers also greatly expanded.
However, after experiencing the defeat of Wu Ping, the total number of troops under Sun Quan's control was almost equal to that of Yan Liang, which was about **0,000.
Fortunately, Sun Quan was not as surrounded by enemies as Yan Liang, so he had to keep a considerable number of troops in the north. The number of troops he used to guard the Shouchun line was only 20,000.
In addition, excluding some of the troops who stayed in Jiangdong to guard against Shanyue, the number of soldiers and horses Sun Quan could use to fight Yan Liang was as high as 60,000.
" Moreover, Sun Quan was not as reserved as Yan Liang. He was determined to win, and he transferred all 60,000 people to the Chaisang front in one breath.
In the late summer and early autumn, Yan Liang, who was stationed in Fankou, and Sun Quan, who was stationed in Chaisang, formed a confrontation.
The two sides were at war with each other, and an unprecedented decisive battle began. (To be continued) - Didn't finish reading?
