Chapter 1782: Attack Wu? Attack Qin?
Chapter 1780: Attack Wu? Attack Qin?
After Liu Xiu occupied Jiangxia, the Chu army also began to discuss the next strategic direction. After all, the 100,000 troops cannot be guarded against.
Now that the State of Chu has occupied Jiangxia, the three parties can send troops together in the future, and it has become invincible against Wu''s strategy, so many senior Chu army leaders have proposed to continue to attack the Eastern Wu.
"Lord, I am against attacking the Eastern Wu at this time."
Li Mi stood up and said that he was also one of the rare oppositions.
After Li Mi surrendered to Liu Yao, he surrendered to Liu Xiu with Liu Yao''s sons, and later became one of Liu Xiu''s aides.
Since joining Liu Xiu''s army, Li Mi has always been highly valued by Liu Xiu, but Liu Xiu also saw that Li Mi was still ambitious, so he was also wary of him and only used him as a counselor without giving real power.
After hearing Li Mi''s words, Liu Xiu was stunned at first, and then asked, "Why?"
“The reason why the generals advocate attacking Wu is nothing more than that civil strife is occurring in Wu.
But you should know that as the main force of the Eastern Wu retreated from Jiangxia, the Japanese pirates along the coast had fled in time, and the largest Shanyue rebel Zulang, had also been subdued by Sun Jian.
At this time, the Shanyue rebels in Wu were called rebels, but they were just some mobs, and even the weapons and equipment were not complete. As long as the army of Eastern Wu was together, they would definitely turn into ashes, which would consume the strength of the Wu army. ”
As he said that, Li Mi bowed and said in a deep voice: "The main force of Eastern Wu has not suffered much damage. With our current strength, if we forcefully attack Wu, it will definitely develop into a tug-of-war, which will consume only money and food but will not occupy an inch of land."
As soon as Li Mi finished speaking, Yang Xiuqing also stood up and said, "Lord, the last general also opposes the attack on Wu."
This time, in order to deal with the Sun Huang coalition, Liu Xiu mobilized 30,000 Taiping surrendered troops from Jiaozhou, and Yang Xiuqing was the commander of such a large army.
After Hong Xiuquan surrendered to Liu Xiu, although some generals surrendered in peace, Yang Xiuqing was one of the generals who truly surrendered, so Liu Xiucai dared to let him lead the army.
"Lord, our army has already formed a strategic advantage over the Wu Kingdom, so if we do not attack Wu, we will have to destroy the country.
Because the Sun family is deeply rooted in Jiangdong, and although our army now has a 100,000 army, if we want to destroy Wu, we may still be unable to achieve it because of this 100,000 army. Therefore, this is not the best opportunity to destroy Wu. ”
Hearing this, Liu Xiu nodded in his heart and then asked again: "When will you destroy Wu Liangji?"
Yang Xiuqing said decisively without thinking, "After our army completely digests Jiaozhou and Jiangxia, the newly obtained land, the national strength will definitely increase significantly, and then it will be the best time to destroy the Wu Kingdom in one fell swoop."
"Yes, with the national strength of our Chu State, the lord can raise 200,000 troops and divide the troops into three groups to attack Wu State.
By then, even if Sun Jian has Sun Wu, he will still be unable to stop our army''s military. He will destroy the Eastern Wu in one battle. ” Li Mi continued.
Yang Xiuqing and Li Mi, you and I will fully analyze the disadvantages of attacking Wu at this time.
Originally, most people supported the attack on Wu because they believed that they would win at this time of attack on Wu. However, after hearing Li Mi and Yang Xiuqing''s words, they found that the strength of Eastern Wu was not greatly damaged, and sending troops to attack Wu at this time may not necessarily win.
After seeing this scene, Deng Yu stood up and said, "Lord, this is indeed not an opportunity to attack Wu, but the top priority is to attack Qin."
"Destroy Qin?"
Most of the generals present were shocked. This was a problem they all avoided. After all, when facing the Qin army, they had too many painful memories, but now they have reached the point where they have to face it.
"Why are you attacking Qin?"
Liu Xiu frowned slightly and asked, "Didn''t he say before sending troops? He wanted Liu Jiding to take the lead and consume the strength of the Qin army in Jingzhou?"
Liu Xiu was actually unwilling to attack Qin. After all, he was driven to Jingnan by Yue Fei, so no one knew better about the power of the Qin army, not to mention that Qin Hao has re-activated Yue Fei, the killing god. So, if there is no complete solution, Liu Xiu does not want to confront the Qin army head-on.
“Lord, this is different from the past.
Due to the Southern Barbarians and Liu Yu, Shu Han could not use all his strength to deal with the Qin army, but for now, Shu Han had tried his best, but still could not shake the Qin army in Jingbei. ”
Deng Yu''s eyes were full of solemn expressions and he said in a deep voice: "If the lord does not work hard, this time the Qin alliance will probably be destroyed in name only, and the only one who will make the profit in the end is the Qin army."
"this…"
Liu Xiu was not a fool, and soon realized the key to it. Deng Yu saw this and said, "In fact, for our army, the benefits of attacking the Qin army are even greater.
At this time, most of the Qin army in Jingbei were fighting against the Shu army on the front line of Yiling, and Nanjun''s defense was relatively empty. If our army sent troops from Jiangxia to attack Nanjun, it would definitely be able to easily recapture Nanjun. ”
Liu Xiu''s eyes suddenly lit up. Nanjun was a thorn in his heart. He dreamed that Nanjun was going to take back Nanjun to wash away the shame of being driven to Jingnan by Yue Fei.
"Okay, I''ll send troops to attack Qin."
As he said that, a glimmer flashed in Liu Xiu''s eyes and he sneered: "But our army has a total of 100,000 troops. If we only attack one Nanjun, the troops will be unable to be exerted."
After thinking a little, Liu Xiu ordered: "Let''s do this, I personally lead a 50,000 army to attack Nanjun.
Deng Yu, you lead 30,000 troops to attack Zhangling County and bring back the heads of Huang Xie’s brothers to me. ”
"Okay." Deng Yu responded in a deep voice.
Liu Xiu nodded, then looked at Yang Xiuqing and said, "Yang Xiuqing, I appointed you as the prefect of Jiangxia and lead 20,000 troops to be responsible for guarding Jiangxia County. No mistakes are allowed."
Seeing that Liu Xiu actually handed over the responsibility of guarding Jiangxia to a surrendered general who had just surrendered for a short time, Yang Xiuqing felt both joy and touching, and secretly made up his mind to never let Liu Xiu down.
"No." Yang Xiuqing shouted.
Seeing that Liu Xiu chose to let Yang Xiuqing guard Jiangxia, Li Mi couldn''t help but feel a little disappointed. He actually wanted to be the prefect of Jiangxia, but unfortunately he had no chance to lead the army.
In this way, Jiangxia''s 100,000 Chu troops were divided into three, one followed Liu Xiu to attack Nanjun, one followed Deng Yu to attack Zhangling County, and the other followed Yang Xiuqing to guard Jiangxia County.
Sun Jian, who had already arranged defense in Lujiang, saw that Liu Xiu did not come to attack him, but instead ran to attack Qin. While he was relieved, he also worked harder to suppress the Shanyue rebellion.
However, even if the Wu Kingdom quickly suppressed the Shanyue Rebellion, it would have been unable to compete with Liu Xiu for Jiangxia in a short period of time.
This time, the Japanese pirates rebellion caused nearly 100,000 people to lose to the Wu Kingdom, and another 30 people became refugees.
The Shanyue Rebellion caused even greater trauma to the Wu Kingdom.
Therefore, even if the Shanyue rebellion was suppressed, the Wu Kingdom would have to cultivate and rest for a long time and sort out the internal affairs in order to restore to the pre-war level.
