    "General Yu, how do you plan to defeat Jingkou?"

    Although Meng Da was feeling unwell, he still managed to cheer up and approached Yu Jin to ask about the strategy for siege.

    Taking Zhongdu River to sneak attack on the capital, and even sweep across the Three Wus, completely disrupting the Wu army's rear. It was originally a dangerous move with a narrow risk of death. Many people in the Southern Expedition army were not optimistic about it, but Meng Da, who was a soldier in the army, insisted on pushing forward this way.  , He even did not hesitate to issue a military order in front of General Yan, personally supervise the army, and spent a lot of effort to coordinate Cao's army's surrender of troops to cross the river.

    He followed the example of his friend Fazheng who advocated taking the Yinping Road to Sichuan and achieved great success in pacifying Shu. He also wanted to follow suit and win a share from many Kansai civil and military officials in the final battle of Yan Xing to unify the north and the south.  A sufficiently dazzling military exploit.

    Although there were many difficulties during the implementation of the plan and the results were not satisfactory, they finally managed to survive the Yangtze River natural chasm without any danger. According to Meng Da, this was enough to prove that the Wu army's rear defense line was empty and unprepared.  This is a great opportunity for this amazing force to make a difference behind enemy lines.

    It¡¯s just that marching and fighting are not his specialty, and most of the people at the bottom who have to command are Cao Jun¡¯s surrendered soldiers, so he now has to rely on Jin, a general who has great influence among Cao Jun¡¯s surrendered soldiers.

    Yu Jin's face looks pretty good. When he was in Cao Ying, he made many military exploits in the land of Qingxu. He also commanded the warships to go out to sea to exterminate the pirate Guan Cheng. Compared with Meng Da, Zang Ba and others, he was more important to the wind and waves on the river.  The adaptability to the soil and water of Jiangzuo is much stronger.

    But at this moment, he smiled bitterly and said:

    "Zidu, we can't defeat Jingkou right now"

    "Why?" Meng Da had been on good terms with Yu Jin these days, but when he heard him say this, he raised his eyebrows, showing a bit of the majesty of a military supervisor.

    He secretly remembered all the little tricks Yu Jin and Zang Ba made secretly under his nose in the past few days.

    As a veteran who has been fighting for many years, Yu Jin naturally has his own opinions and assurances since he has taken on this dangerous task. He explained:

    "The river is thousands of miles wide, and it is not comparable to ordinary rivers in the Central Plains. Looking at the current situation, although we are crossing the river secretly, there are an endless stream of ships coming and going, so how can we hide it from the eyes and ears of the soldiers and civilians in the south of the Yangtze River. Fortunately, there are many warships along the river in the east of the Yangtze River.  Most of the troops that were transferred to the west to resist the general went down the river, so no extra warships were temporarily available to block the river and invite an attack."

    "The Art of War says that the way to attack a city is as a last resort. Repair oars and oars and equip equipment. It will be completed in three months. The city at Jingkou will be strong. Our army goes deep alone. There are enemies all around. There is no help in the front and rear. If we attack the city, we will be defeated. Once we attack the city  After a while, the surrounding Wu army came rushing to help, and the army was destroyed. I regretted it so much."

    "Since we can't take Jingkou in one go, what's the use of coming here for the sake of fame and fortune, abandoning our wives and going into danger?"

    Hearing this, Meng Da was so anxious that he stared at Yu Jin with his eyes wide open. He was seeking wealth and wealth through danger. Obviously, Yu Jin's statement could not win his trust.

    Yu Jin could only explain again:

    "The situation is unclear, and enemies are surrounding you. If you want to gain fame, the only way to do it is to build walls high, store up grain widely, and attack the city slowly."

    "What does this mean?"

    "We drove the army deep into the city, dug long moats and besieged the city, so that the Wu army could not respond to the internal and external response. Then we divided our troops to loot grain and grass, and sent envoys to recruit the Wu people in the name of the court, so that the three Wu people came to surrender, causing internal strife. We also built fortresses to prevent them from returning.  This is in line with the art of war of "become invincible first, then wait for the enemy to be victorious". In this way, the army waits for an opportunity to attack the city again. Even if the siege fails, it only needs to retreat to the camp and reach there.  At the same time, it can also cause the Wu army in the west to be in chaos and collapse without a fight. The soldiers and horses under the general's command can take advantage of the situation and move eastward along the river to take all the land on the left side of the river!"

    Yu Jin temporarily changed his strategy and said everything in detail, which made Mengda feel angry but had nowhere to pour out. According to the previous military discussion, the army could not look forward and backward in deep danger. Only by defeating the city in one battle and capturing Jingkou could they achieve the goal.  Qi Bing attacks his innermost purpose.

    However, Jingkou saw that there were not enough soldiers and horses under his command to cross the river, and there was no food, grass, baggage or rear reinforcements. The city of Jingkou was well prepared and the enemy situation around it was unclear. He was unwilling to take the risk of driving his soldiers to attack the city, and was only willing to adopt a compromise method to besiege the city.

    Mengda knew that his strategy was inferior to that of Jin. After crossing the river, everything would have to rely on Jin's soldiers. He could only endure this breath, bowed his hands and saluted:

    "Since the general's words are conclusive, he can defeat the enemy's troops without fighting. There was a saying in the army before that after crossing the river, the military will rely on the general, so Nada will wait and see."

    ¡°That¡¯s it, thank you Zidu for your support.¡±

    ¡€¡€¡€

    Yu ?We should look at the overall situation and sacrifice small righteousness for big gain.  If the enemy generals are allowed to gain power and the overall situation collapses, then the six counties in Jiangdong will fall under the enemy's hooves, and there will be no city or land left to protect.  "

    "The opposite is not true. The enemy takes the risk to cross the river and throws strong troops into dangerous areas in order to complete his victory in one battle. If he quickly overturns the army and kills the general, the enemy's army will be greatly shaken and their morale will plummet. By that time, we, Jiang Zuo, will  Under the leadership of the governor, the army will surely be able to take advantage of the victory to attack and defeat the exhausted enemy."

    "Once Chibi is victorious, the army on the left side of the Yangtze River will be able to rely on the power of victory to march across the Yangtze and Huaihe Rivers, attack Jiujiang and Guangling in the east, capture Jiangling and Xiangyang in the middle, and enter Bashu in the west. We can draw the river to confront the enemy from north to south, and even attack  , drank the Ma Da River, captured Wan and Luo, this is an unparalleled achievement, how can it be measured by the people in this place as you say?"

    "This, this" Ling Tong was forced back step by step by Lu Meng. He had no words to refute. He was so confused that he didn't know how to make a decision.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
