- The spring rain is continuous, and the land in the south of the Yangtze River is covered with fresh green.
Just one day ago, the naval forces led by Gan Ning, Lu Meng and Ling Tong launched an attack on the Wu army in Wankou in three directions.
On land, an infantry army led by Zhang Liao also set out from Xunyang and launched a pincer attack on Wankou from land.
Facts have proved that Zhou Yu's defensive ability is not inferior to his offensive ability.
After a whole day of fierce fighting, Yan Liang lost more than a thousand soldiers and dozens of warships, but still could not break through the Wu army's iron wall.
Yan Liang once again tried to attack and failed.
Yan Liang failed to attack by force, so he had to order all the troops to retreat temporarily. Yan Liang, who was in the Jiangnan camp, summoned his counselors to continue discussing strategies to defeat the enemy.
Zhou Yu's success in holding on also greatly increased Sun Quan's confidence in him, so Sun Quan felt relieved to leave Zhou Yu in charge of Wankou while he returned to Moling.
Sun Quan's return gradually calmed down the panicked people in Jiangdong, and Zhu Huan and other generals also defeated several small-scale rebellions by Shanyue people and stabilized people's hearts.
At the same time, under the call of Sun Quan, the big families in Jiangdong donated part of their home grain for military needs, which to a certain extent made up for Sun Quan's shortage of grain and grass.
Looking at the overall situation, Wu Jun is getting out of the initial predicament of losing consecutive battles and is gradually stabilizing.
As for the Northern Kingdom, as Yan Liang had predicted, Cao Cao, after pacifying Yongliang, began to attack Guandong.
With his strength greatly increased, Cao Cao personally led 40,000 cavalry eastward out of Tongguan, defeated several counties under Hongnong County, and reached the front line of Luoyang guarded by Han Meng.
Cao Cao's dispatch of troops made it impossible for the high-ranking cadres who wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers to stay out of the war. They had to lead the army south from Taiyuan and entered the Hedong County area, claiming that they would move south of Hedong to attack Cao Cao's back path. .
Cao Cao would not give in, so he sent Cao Ren to guard Hongnong, blocking Gao Gan's attempt to cross the river, and continued his attack on Luoyang with his army.
A fierce battle between Cao Cao and senior officials is about to begin, and the war in Hebei is entering a critical stage.
In early spring, the Qingxu Army led by Liu Bei avoided Yuan Shang's tightly defended Liyang line, and suddenly crossed the Yellow River from Gaotang to the north and invaded Pingyuan County.
Liu Bei's surprise attack naturally achieved miraculous results. Yuan Shang's army in Pingyuan County was small. How could Liu Bei's army with Zhang Fei as the vanguard. In just a few days, Liu Bei's army marched straight in and captured Pingyuan County and Qinghe County. The southeast threatens Julu County.
At this time, Yuan Shang was leading his army to a stalemate with Yuan Tan in Julu, and Liu Bei's army's rapid advance threatened Yuan Shang's flanks, and his main force was even in danger of being cut off by Liu Bei.
The hard-pressed Yuan Shang, faced with attacks from both sides, had no choice but to send people to the south of the Yangtze River to ask for help from Yan Liang, hoping that Yan Liang could send troops north to contain Liu Bei.
In fact, there is no need for Yuan Shang to ask for help. If his strength allows, Yan Liang will certainly not let Liu Bei become powerful.
But the current fact is that Yan Liang's main force has been concentrated on the Yangtze River, and the remaining troops in the north are only tens of thousands. They have more than enough to defend, but not enough to attack.
It is impossible for Yan Liang to suddenly move his troops northward in the middle of the battle to destroy Wu. After all, Sun Quan still retains the hinterland of Jiangdong at this time. If he is allowed to breathe, it will be even more difficult to destroy Wu at that time. .
Furthermore, even if Yuan Shang is destroyed, Yuan Tan and Liu Bei will still be in conflict with each other. It is inevitable that the two will start war again. In the short term, no one will be able to dominate the north alone, not to mention that Cao Cao is now involved.
After weighing the situation, Yan Liang decided to focus on destroying Wu. He only gave Yuan Shang spiritual encouragement, but did not send a single soldier to relieve him.
¡¡
It was almost evening, and it was drizzling.
Yan Liang stood at the door of his tent, looking at the drizzle falling in the distance, feeling quite melancholy.
At this time, he began to feel a little bit about Sun Quan's depression.
Facing the enemy camp in Wankou that could not be attacked by force, Yan Liang felt helpless for the first time after a long battle.
Not only Yan Liang, but also the resourceful men under his command racked their brains and could not come up with any strategy to defeat the enemy.
Zhou Yu seemed to have planted his roots in the mouth of Anhui. No matter what Yan Liang tried, he just refused to show his head.
"Zhou Yu, you bitch, don't think you can be a coward all your life. I will let you show your coward one day."
He was scolded, but in fact he was still helpless.
After watching the rain for a long time, Yan Liang was bored, so he sat back in the tent and drank some wine.
Before finishing a glass of wine, Zhou Cang came from outside to report that a scribe outside the camp wanted to see Yan Liang.
"Scribe? Do you know the name of that scribe?" Yan Liang asked.
Zhou Cang shook his head and said: "That scribe is very arrogant. He claims that he will only reveal his name when he sees his lord."
It is natural for strange people and strangers to be somewhat self-reliant and arrogant.
Just when Yan Liang was bored, he suddenly became interested in this so-called scribe and asked the scribe to be invited in.
Zhou Cang left. Not long after, the curtain was lifted and a person stepped into the tent.
Yan Liang looked up and saw that the scribe was wearing a green shirt. He was not tall, his appearance was unattractive, his skin was dark and rough, but he was somewhat similar to Zhang Song.
"It's just that Zhang Song gives people a feeling of deceit, but the scribe in front of him has an implicit calmness.
When Yan Liang observed the scribe, the scribe was also looking at Yan Liang calmly. His sharp eyes seemed to have the ability to penetrate people's hearts.
"Could the general be the world-famous Yan Ziyi?" The scribe slightly cupped his hands, his demeanor calm and composed.
Yan Liang nodded slightly, "This general is Yan Liang. Do you know the names of these gentlemen?"
"I am Pang Tong in Xiangyang." The scribe replied calmly in six words.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Six words that sound like thunder.
Pang Tong!
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out out of love, Wolong and Fengxiao can settle the world together.
Could it be that the unattractive man in front of me is Feng Chu, who is as famous as Zhuge Liang?
In an instant, Yan Liang felt a strong curiosity in his heart, and he even felt a sense of secret joy.
Although Yan Liang was agitated in his heart, Yan Liang was as calm as water on the surface. He just said lightly: "It turns out that Mr. Pang Shiyuan is Xiangyang. I have admired him for a long time."
"That's right."
It turned out to be Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan, now he was right.
Pang Tong in history is said to be as famous as Zhuge Liang, and in terms of military planning before the battle, Pang Tong is even better than Zhuge Liang.
If this were not the case, Liu Bei would not have taken Pang Tong as his companion to join the army when he entered the Shu campaign.
"It's a pity that although Pang Tong was a genius, his fate was unlucky. He just showed some prowess and died in Luofengpo.
If Pang Tong had not died so early, with his outstanding military talent, the fate of the Shu Han might have been very different.
And now, such a top military strategist is now standing in front of Yan Liang, as if he is a gift from God, and he takes the initiative to deliver it to his door.
"When I was in Jingzhou, I had admired Mr. Shiyuan's talents and knowledge for a long time. I even sent people to visit my house. People in my house said that Mr. Shiyuan has been traveling around all over the world all year round. I don't know where he is, but I don't want to meet here. It really makes me feel What a surprise.¡±
After confirming Pang Tong¡¯s identity, Yan Liang naturally no longer concealed his appreciation.
Pang Tong said calmly: "I am just an idler in the mountains. I like to travel around to study. I have not had the opportunity to meet the general before, which is a pity. Now when I passed by here, I learned that the general is here, so I came here to see him."
"Idle people in the mountains, traveling around the world, passing by here, it's a good excuse"
????????
Pang Tong¡¯s so-called traveling around the world is, to put it bluntly, nothing more than ¡°knocking on doors to find jobs.¡±
Now that Pang Tong came to see him, it was probably because he was not valued by Sun Quan that he decided to transfer to him.
Strange people and strangers always want to save face. Most of these outstanding people under Yan Liang were "captive", so how could they be offended by Pang Tong who came back on his own initiative.
"It's rare to meet Mr. Shiyuan today. I must have some advice from him." Yan Liang said with a smile.
Pang Tong said: "The general is so powerful that I don't take advice seriously. It's just that Pang is a little curious about the general's current behavior."
He is paving the way for what will happen next.
"I wonder what Sir is suspicious of?" Yan Liang asked following his words.
"The general has gathered tens of thousands of land and water troops here, but has done nothing for a long time. If this continues, until Jiangdong regains its strength, or the situation in the north changes, the general will be unable to advance or retreat, and cannot care about each other. Isn't it true that he is stuck in a quagmire and cannot extricate himself."
Yan Liang felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart.
What Pang Tong said was exactly what he was worried about, and since Pang Tong dared to say it face to face, he must have a solution.
In the past few days, Yan Liang has been trying to resolve the impasse he is facing.After exhausting his brains, Pang Tong's arrival is tantamount to providing help in the snow.
"What you said, sir, is exactly what I am concerned about. I am suffering from the fact that I have no strategy to defeat the enemy. Please teach me how to defeat the enemy."
Pang Tong smiled slightly, stroking his short beard lightly, and something mysterious flashed between his brows.
"Wankou Camp is far from holding the fortress like Chaisang. Why can't the general attack it?" Pang Tong said.
Yan Liang sighed: "Wankou Camp is not as good as Chaisang, but the prerequisite for my general to be able to defeat Chaisang was to defeat Sun Quan in a water battle. Now that Zhou Yu has learned his lesson and can't get out of the strong wall, I am a little helpless. "
"Zhou Yu can't get out of the wall, why doesn't the general induce him to fight?" Pang Tong asked in return.
Yan Liang shook his head and smiled, "It's not like I haven't tried before, but the always proud Mizhouro is determined to be a coward this time and refuses to fight no matter what. I am also helpless."
"Since Zhou Yu refuses to fight, why not attack Sun Quan?"
Pang Tong suddenly said this.
Yan Liang¡¯s head was shaken. Looking at Pang Tong¡¯s sly smile, Yan Liang knew that this Feng Chu had a hidden agenda.
Yan Liang stood up excitedly and excitedly raised his hands: "Sir, please give me some tips."
"Haha, I can't say I have a clever plan, but I have a few tricks that may help the general."
Pang Tong smiled secretly and unhurriedly revealed his plan. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!) - Didn't finish reading?
