Kure, the county capital At this time, Sun Jian was discussing with his subordinates that they should not send troops to support Lin Shihong.
It turned out that a day earlier, the envoy of the South Vietnamese Army had arrived in Ngo County, met Sun Jian, and asked for reinforcements.
"My lord, I think that our army cannot lead the army to rescue the South Vietnamese army."
Because Sun Jian repelled Li Zitong's attack last time, and the Sui Court in the world has existed in name only Therefore, Sun Jian proclaimed himself the Marquis of Wu and garrisoned Wu County.
Therefore, Cheng Pu bluntly called him the lord.
When Sun Jian heard that Cheng Pu was directly opposed to the rescue, he couldn't help but wonder for a while, and then asked.
Immediately, Cheng Pu explained: "Lord, now Li Zitong is in the land of Jianghuai, and his soldiers are full of food and food, and there are many generals who dare to fight. ” "He is now stationed at the border, eyeing our army, if once the army is led to the rescue, Li Zitong will invade Wu County."
"Isn't this going to be doomed?"
With Cheng Pu's analysis, Sun Jian's restless heart gradually calmed down.
Indeed, what Cheng Pu said is true, and the gap between his own strength and his own strength is too large.
If Li Zitong takes advantage of his rescue and takes the opportunity to lead the army to attack, it will be extremely tricky.
But at this moment, an old scribe with a radiant look and gray hair slowly stood up.
This scribe is Zhang Zhao, a Jiangdong advisor born in the late Han Dynasty, and his implanted identity is also the patriarch of the local clan of Wu County.
After Sun Jian established himself as a marquis, he learned that his ability was outstanding, so he was recruited as an official and is now a long historian.
"My lord, what General Cheng said, I don't dare to agree" "Wu County is located on the easternmost coast of Yangzhou, and after the Taiping army occupies the south of Yangzhou, it can take a fleet to raid across the sea at any time."
"With this move, our army is already extremely passive, but if Lin Shihong is destroyed."
"Wu County will lose its buffer point and will fully border the Taiping army, and the Taiping army will be able to attack our army from a large scale."
"At that time, with the strength of our army, how can we resist the advance of the Taiping army?"
For a time, Zhang Zhao's words were like a soldering iron, causing an uproar in his council Hearing this, Sun Jiancai's thoughts turned, he reacted, and took the lead in looking at the map on the screen.
Indeed, if Xin'an falls, the Taiping army's northward march will be unimpeded.
At that time, with the strength of the Wu army alone, I am afraid it will be difficult to block the strong front of the Taiping army.
Therefore, almost instantaneously, Sun Jian made a decision to make a plan to send troops to help.
It's just that Cheng Pu's words can't be guarded against, Li Zitong's army is strong, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will not take the opportunity to raid Wu County.
Immediately, Sun Jian asked him for a plan: "Zibu, I don't know if you have a plan to make our army go to the rescue." ” "But it can also make Wu County as safe as a mountain from its raids."
Hearing this, Zhang Zhao just chuckled slightly, and then said lightly: "Actually, the lord doesn't have to worry" "Yi Zhao guessed that since Lin Shihong sent an envoy to ask for help, wouldn't he ask for help from Li Zitong, who was even stronger."
"Moreover, the Lizitong border also borders Xin'an County."
"If Lin Shihong is destroyed, he will bear the brunt, and Li Zitong will also be attacked by the Taiping army."
"Unless Li Zitong gives up the counties in Jiangdong, withdraws his defense line to Jianghuai, and relies on the Yangtze River to hold on."
"Otherwise, focusing on the overall situation, Li Zitong will not point the finger at our army this time, but will go all out to rescue."
With Zhang Zhao's analysis, Sun Jian's heart calmed down a little.
Immediately afterwards, Sun Jian began to reorganize the army and prepare to send troops to help.
At this time, as Zhang Zhao expected, Lin Shihong did send an envoy to the hinterland of Li Zitong to persuade him to send troops to help.
Liyang, the royal palace At this time, Li Zitong also summoned his subordinates and sat down in two rows.
Immediately afterwards, everyone expressed their opinions and expressed their opinions.
For a time, the scene was extremely lively, with both those who agreed with sending troops and those who refused to send troops to rescue.
Only Zhu Yuanzhang sat aside, quietly listening, and did not speak.
After a long time, Li Zitong, the king of Fengming, noticed Zhu Yuanzhang on the side and asked him: "I don't know what Guorui Zhu Yuanzhang has to say."
"What is their view on the issue of sending troops to help?"
For a while, as Li Zitong took the initiative to ask, Zhu Yuanzhang knew that he couldn't be silent.
Therefore, after a pause, he said sternly: "The last general thinks that he should be assisted, and he should also immediately send troops to attack Sun Jian, who has seized Wu County. ” In an instant, Zhu Yuanzhang put forward his views vigorously.
For a while, the rest of the generals in the palace were frightened by his words.
It must be known that the Taiping army besieging Lin Shihong will now have about 70,000 troops, and if they want to send troops to help.
Then its soldiers and horses must not be less than 60,000, which is almost half of the country's military strength.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang is still in favor of attacking from both sides.
If it weren't for Zhu Yuanzhang's outstanding military achievements and pacification of various places, all the generals would think that he was arrogant Hearing this, Li Zitong's expression was still unwavering, and he said, "Keep talking" "The reason why we want to attack Wu County is because our army is not going to rescue Lin Shihong with all our might."

"Because Xin'an borders on Xuancheng County of our army, if you let it easily destroy Lin Shihong."
"At that time, the pressure on our army's defense line on the south bank of the Yangtze River will be doubled."
"Therefore, the purpose of our army's attack is to build military prestige and put pressure on the Taiping army, so that it does not dare to attack the South Vietnamese army with all its might."
"On the other hand, it can also paralyze Sun Jian's troops and take the opportunity to raid and seize Wu County."
"As long as Wu County can be captured, then our army will be able to form a strong defensive line on the south bank of the Yangtze River."
"At that time, even if Lin Shihong's department is destroyed, it will not affect our army."
I saw that Zhu Yuanzhang's words were full of analysis.
In the end, after discussion, Li Zitong also agreed to adopt Zhu Yuanzhang's strategy.
However, the commander of the army who sent troops to help, Li Zitong personally led the army.
In fact, it is also because Zhu Yuanzhang has continuously led the army to fight, and his prestige in the army almost exceeds that of Li Zitong.
Therefore, although Zhu Yuanzhang seems to be reused by him, he has long been squeezed out by Li Zitong.
The relationship between the two has long seemed to be detached, and there is no trust relationship for a long time.
Therefore, how could Li Zitong continue to hand over the command of his army to Zhu Yuanzhang However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not fight for it, and saw Li Zitong lead the army to leave.
The corners of Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth suddenly rose with an imperceptible sneer.
This smile is like a cold wind in the bitter cold, cold and howling.
Li Zitong never knew that what he was going to was a road of death In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang had already seen that what the Taiping Army had set up was to encircle and send reinforcements.
It's just that in order to put Li Zitong to death and seize power, he didn't remind him.
What will happen to Li Zitong's immortal return?
