"Shiyang, Hanyang, Wuling, and Jingling, either the city was easily breached, or it was surrendered without any effort at all. In addition to the Jiangxia County of Jingzhou, the Yangzhou Navy won half of the country in the Southern County of Jingzhou. Yes, the eight counties of Jingzhou are already two and a half counties in the hands of the Yangzhou Army. If you add the previous Nanyang County, it will be three and a half counties, almost half of Jingzhou's territory.
It seems that the whole situation is very good, but only Lu Xun knows the hardships.
"What's wrong with General Lu? His complexion is not good? But the climate is not acclimatized?" Huo Jun and others were able to enter Jingling, Jingling city had already surrendered, and the Yangzhou Army issued a notice to reassure the people, so Jingling city can be counted as safe. nothing.
Above the former prefect's mansion in Jingling City became Lu Xun's meeting hall.
Lu Xun was looking at the map with a sad face.
The problem of acclimatization to the soil and water is not big or small, because there were many generals who ended up \no\wrong\ .()() because of the acclimatization to the soil and water. Either the country is destroyed or the family is destroyed, so Huo Jun is particularly concerned.
"Hehe, I have lived in the land of Jingchu for so long. If the environment is not acclimatized, it would have been acclimatized long ago. Is it still up to now?" Lu Xun shook his head. How can people in the land of Jingchu not acclimate? Should Lu Xun go to the north? It's possible that the climate is not acclimatized. "Then who are you, General?" Huo Jun was a little confused, because the ugly look on Lu Xun's face can be seen by anyone.
"Oh! This is caused by a sleepless night yesterday!" Lu Xun looked at the bronze mirror, and only then did he realize the haggard look on his face.
"The general didn't sleep all night?" Huo Jun asked suspiciously.
"Yes!" Lu Xun nodded, "Zhong Miao, come and see!" Lu Xun took out the map and pointed to the direction on the map and said to Huo Jun.
"Jiangling?" Huo Jun saw a place marked by Lu Xun.
"That's right! It's Jiangling!" Lu Xun nodded, "Zhong Miao, do you know why we gave up Jiangdong and sent troops to Jingzhou!"
"In order to be able to concentrate our efforts to defeat Jingzhou and take Jingzhou!" Huo Jun replied, the Yangzhou navy now has a total of 40,000 people. Once separated, there will only be 20,000 on one side. Therefore, we must concentrate our strength to attack one side.
"Zhong Miao, you are only half right!" Lu Xun said to Huo Jun, "It is true that we are attacking one side in order to concentrate our strength. But we did not attack Jiangdong but chose Jingzhou because Jingzhou is much richer than Jiangdong! "
"Aren't we invincible now? If Shiyang, Hanyang and Wuling are broken, the general has nothing to hate!" Huo Jun didn't understand even more, they are now in a period of high morale. "Hehe, the sum of ten Shiyang and Hanyang can't compare to a city!" Lu Xun clicked on the place on the map again. That is Gangneung.
"Although our army is strong now, Jingzhou has a high foundation after all. If you give him a rest for a year or so, a Jingzhou navy may soon emerge on the Yangtze River again!"
"So what if it reappears! It's not like we're going to lose on our new-style warships!" Said Captain You on the sidelines. His words were approved by many sailors and soldiers of the Yangzhou Navy's new-style warships. That is against the current building ships, and there is no problem with a dozen or five, so Huo Jun and the others are envious of getting this kind of warships.
"Hehe, even though that's what I said, it still requires Liu Biao's navy to take the initiative to attack. What if the Jingzhou navy is huddled in the port and can't come out?" The new warships are not very useful, after all, you have to fight on board, and in the end this is a war of attrition. Although Yangzhou is now powerful, it can't consume Jingzhou's army. Even if it exhausts the Yangzhou army, it will be abolished.
"And now we want to destroy Jingzhou's background, so that they no longer have huge potential. They can consume more than us. They can build hundreds of thousands of warships. And we make a deal like one less than one. It can't be done! And to destroy the enemy's background is to break through this place, Jiangling! Jiangling is the most prosperous place in Southern Jingzhou County, and it is also the capital of Jingzhou. Not only does it have a population of 100,000, but it also has sufficient resources. Grain and money, according to incomplete statistics, the inventory of a city in Jiangling can form a 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the food and grass in the city can supply these 100,000 soldiers and horses for two years."
"One hundred thousand soldiers and horses to eat for two years?" Huo Jun gasped. He always knew that Liu Biao, his former boss, was very rich, but he didn't expect to be so rich. This Jiangling is just a companion capital. It is possible to form a 100,000 army. If it is possible to form a 300,000 navy in the mansion in Xiangyang.
"So we have to take Jiangling. With Jiangling, the strength of our Yangzhou army is further consolidated. Another thing is to destroy the foundation of Jingzhou, so that they can rest and support the huge fleet even if they prepare for another three to five years! In this way, Jingzhou will become a lamb waiting to be slaughtered!"
"Then send troops to Jiangling immediately! What's the use of frowning here!" Huo Jun was originally a calm person, and he usually takes every step of the way, but now he is moved by Lu Xun's words. I want to take Jiangling.
"Jiangling is broken, but this road is difficult!" Lu Xun shook his head helplessly. If he can go to attack immediately, Huo Jun needs to tell. Lu Xun sent troops a long time ago, but now the soldiers are easy to send out. But this road is not good. In front of Jiangling is a very famous place called Huarong Road. Here are huge swamps one after another. If no one guides you, then congratulations, this swamp will become your burial place.
Even people who have lived here for decades have only figured out one or two or a few miles. Others simply don't know.
If you can't pass Huarong Road, then naturally you can't go to Jiangling. There is an extra divine punishment in front of Jiangling. This is what Lu Xun is worried about.
"Swamp? Let me go and have a look!" Huo Jun wanted to see exactly what was going on in Huarong Dao, so he quickly took hundreds of soldiers to Huarong Dao, which took half a day. Come back, come back this time, Huo Jun is in a panic, only a few dozens of people came back, and asked the reason, it turned out that nearly a hundred other people couldn't come back, they were swallowed up by that horrible swamp, just in the blink of an eye Kung fu fell into it, and if Huo Jun hadn't reacted in time and added his force, he might have fallen into it too.
"General, the last general is ashamed of the general!" Huo Jun's face was all blushing, when did Huo Jun suffer such a big loss.
"Hey, I don't blame Zhong Miao for saying that!" Lu Xun shook his head helplessly. Could it be that this Hua Rongdao really has trouble getting through it!
"Report! Report to the general, there is a white-clothed scribe outside the door begging to see you!"
