"Quickly, build fortifications. Didn't General Huo Jun teach you how to build military camps?

Hurry up, follow the map, and follow General Huo Jun’s arrangements..."

"Come here, let's see where General Huo Jun is. This place will be garrisoned by him in the future. What will I do if he doesn't come?"

On the border between Jiangxia and Yuzhou, Huang Zhong and Liao Li were constantly urging their soldiers to build up lines of defense.

Countless trees were cut down, and thousands of soldiers and corvee farmers wielded hoes and began to dig and widen trenches.

There are also hundreds of craftsmen and soldiers making deer villages and horses, as well as defense objects such as iron caltrops...

At the same time, Huo Jun from Fancheng also got the news, and began to hand over the troops and horses in his hands to Xu Shu, and then galloped directly towards here with his trusted followers.

According to Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang's plan, once a war begins with Cao Mengde, there will definitely be two battlefields.

One of them is Nanyang County, which has moved 80% of its people and is still moving.

This place will be fortified and clear, becoming the main battlefield for both sides.

Both Liu Biao and Cao Mengde were aware of the situation here, but Liu Biao was powerless and could only let Zhao Yun and others do what they did.

As for Xiahou Dun, he was constantly testing and even started to blatantly cross the line. Although the two sides did not fight in Nanyang, Zhao Yun and Wenpin had already joined the battlefield.

Xiahou Dun also brought Gao Lan and Li Tong, who dared to come, and began to fight with him. The casualties on both sides were gradually increasing...

Outside the Nanyang battlefield, there is Jiangxia, which borders Runan County, Yuzhou. However, Xicheng and other places are not dangerous. It may be difficult to defend Jiangxia with this kind of terrain.

So Zhuge Liang put forward two suggestions.

"Jiangxia County is also divided into north and south, and the north of the Yangtze River is mostly land. Although Cao's army conquered the north, it was not good at water warfare.

We can take the natural danger of the Yangtze River as the direction, and use Anlu, Xiakou, Shaxian, Exian, Xiaji and other places as garrison, and send generals to garrison them.

At that time, even if Cao Mengde had tens of thousands of cavalry, he could not cross the Yangtze River and could only face us across the river.

If you attack...just cross over and attack him!"

This first method is very simple. After all, Zhuge Liang knows very well that this is the method used by the Sun family in Jiangdong in his previous life. He divided the Jiangxia into two parts and stationed them separately.

It is true that Cao Mengde could not take the southern part of Jiangxia, but Sun Quan also failed to take the northern part of Jiangxia in his life....

It is difficult for both sides to cross the defense line of the Yangtze River. After all, whoever attacks will be unlucky...

Although Liu Bei and others knew that this was a foolproof strategy, they were still a little unwilling and a little worried.

"If we give up the northern part of Jiangxia, then Sui County, Zhangling and even Fuyang in Nanyang County will be surrounded by Cao's army.

If there is a problem on the east side of Nanyang County, then I am afraid that the battlefield in Nanyang County will be even more dangerous."

"If this is the case, then there is only the second way.

Do not give up Jiangxia County and let Jiangxia County become the refuge of Nanyang County. In this way, Nanyang County only needs to face threats from the northeast.

The pressure on the generals will be much less, but Jiangxia must have a real general stationed there.

If Cao Mengde is in a stalemate on the Nanyang battlefield, he will definitely try his best to break through Jiangxia and attack Nanyang County from the flank.

As for the northern part of Jiangxia County... although the lines of defense are much smaller, with only Pang County, Bian County, and Xiyang, it is almost undefeable.

If you want to defend this place, the requirements for generals are extremely high..."

This is also a difficult thing to do. Just when everyone didn't know how to make a decision, Huo Jun, after hearing the news, took the initiative and proposed the idea of ​​transferring to Jiang Xia.

Huo Jun himself asked for orders to be stationed in the direction of Jiangxia, and based on the map of Jiangxia, he personally eliminated many people from Jiangxia, and finally found a way to defend Jiangxia.

"With Luoshan as the foundation and the Huanghe River as the defense line, trenches and barriers were set up along the way, supplemented by numerous deer villages to resist horses. Finally, several cities were connected, and thousands of soldiers and horses were used to roam among them.

If Cao's army demolishes many fortified deer villages, it will take a long time. We can directly go behind him from other directions and wait for an opportunity to launch a surprise attack.

If it relies on its large number of soldiers and horses to directly enter Jiangxia, the many fortifications will allow us to make surprise attacks from all directions and disturb its peace.

At the same time, if they rely on a large number of soldiers and horses to divide their troops into garrison, then their advantage of having many soldiers and generals will be gone!"

When Huo Jun's letter and detailed defense map were delivered to Liu Bei, even Liu Bei and Kong Ming, who had known about his talent for a long time, were shocked.

The plan was very crazy, but the two of them unanimously believed in Huo Jun's ability.

Not only did he agree with his idea, he even asked Liao Li to go to Jiangxia to pave the way for him. At the same time, he sent a message to Liu Pan, hoping to use Jiangxia's supplies and supplies for so many years.

Under this situation, crazy construction began in northern Jiangxia, and Huang Zhong kept patrolling the surrounding area to prevent Le Jin from appearing again.

Fortunately, Le Jin seemed to have received news from Xu Du. Although he kept testing the border between Jiangxia and Runan, he did not dare to take action without permission.

Liu Biao's order also followed, telling Huang Zhong not to cross the Jiangxia border. If Jiangdong's losses had not coincided with the fierce attack on Shaxian and other places, Liu Biao and Huang Zhong would have gone back now.

While the northern part of Jiangxia was busy, the southern part of Jiangxia also began to fight crazily.

When Guan Yu received the news of Jiangdong's invasion, Gan Ning, Zhou Yu and others had actually fought several times, and the two sides could be regarded as cheating on the outcome.

Although Huang Zu was absent, it was not without arrangements. His general Zhang Shuo patrolled the river day and night and lit up the smoke as soon as the Jiangdong army appeared.

Unfortunately, although Zhang Shuo sent the message, he ran into General Ling Tong, who was bent on revenge.

Ling Tong has grown up, and his bravery is considered outstanding in Jiangdong. Even Taishi Ci said after seeing him that his future is limitless.

Ling Tong personally led the boat to charge and catch up with Zhang Shuo who was fleeing all the way. At the moment before Gan Ning, Su Fei and others responded, he jumped up in front of many Jiangxia naval troops and flew onto Zhang Shuo's warship.

, and then lifted it up high with a spear.

Zhang Shuo's screams echoed across the river. As he retreated, the screams echoed all the way, making Gan Ning furious but ultimately unable to rescue him.

Ling Tong took the lead, and Su Fei immediately followed Huang Zu's arrangement before leaving to defend Miankou, using the narrow terrain here to drag the Jiangdong Navy into the battlefield.

The high mountains on both sides directly defended against a large number of throwing carts, as well as strong men specially selected from Jiangxia, as well as thousands of crossbowmen to assist in the defense.

When Jiangdong's navy rushed to kill them, boulders and rockets flew up immediately, and a large number of Jiangdong's soldiers and warships were damaged here.

Not only those small ships, but also the dozen or so three-story ships that Jiangdong had just developed during this period were sunk as much as half.

This battle was considered the pinnacle of "Huang Zu". Even if he was no longer Jiang Xia, he was still able to cut out a large piece of bloody flesh from Zhou Gongjin's body.

After this battle, Sun Zhongmou finally realized that he might not be that good at commanding battles. His panic during the previous ambush made his situation even more miserable.

After that, he simply handed over the war to Zhou Yu, and accepted Zhou Yu's suggestion to retreat to the rear and watch the battle.

If you are really bored, you can beat the drums and cheer for the soldiers....
