Chapter 383: The first shot to attack Wu

That night, Liu Bei and Chen Chen arranged details of the troops to send troops.

Although Chen Chen was the whole army in this battle, he did not lead the troops to participate in the war. Instead, he was with Liu Bei and served as the supervisor of the rear army.

Therefore, the three routes of attack on Wu had their own arrangements.

The commander of the three armies in front of the first route was Guan Yu, the second route was Pang De, and the third route was Wei Yan.

The details still need to be discussed.

After Chen Chen's planning, Liu Bei made a decision, facing an army of 80,000, with Guan Yu as the commander, and being fully responsible.

Zhao Yun was the commander of the army, leading 40,000 people to take Ruxukou directly.

Huang She, the commander of Gan Ning, led 30,000 Jiangxia Navy, rushed eastward, and rushed to Zheqi City to support Zhao Yun's troops.

Guan Yu conducted war command.

The Pangde tribe and the Wuxi Man tribe, whose deputy general Shamoke, had to go the farthest route, and guided by the local Shanyue, rushed from the second county of Kuaiji in Yuzhang to Qiantang for thousands of miles.

Wei Yan's troops and deputy general Wang Ping went from the southeast hills to the later Huangshan City, crossed the southeast hills, and took Yuhang County. He attacked Qian Tang on both sides with Pang De's troops, stabbed Sun Quan in the eyes, and then divided the troops into two groups to capture Danyang and Wujun.

This is the entire tactical layout.

For this reason, Chen Chen sent Qu Gan Zhang Nan to leave Xiakou on the same day and secretly went to Nanchang, deep into the southeast hills, to meet the leaders of the Shanyue tribes and unite with them.

The next day, Liu Bei was preparing to hold a oath-taking meeting on Jiufeng Mountain in Xiakou City to officially start preparing a military operation against Jiangdong.

On May 5, 25th year of Jian'an, on the peak behind Xiakou City, Jiangxia County, Jingzhou.

Liu Bei opened an altar to worship the fallen soldiers and the people.

The weather is good today, it is midsummer in May, and the hot sun shines on the earth, making people feel a little hot.

But Xiakou is on the edge of the Yangtze River, above the mountain peaks, and the gentle southeast wind blows, bringing a hint of coolness.

There is a platform on the top of the mountain, surrounded by lush green trees. Standing on the platform, you can overlook the city at the foot of the mountain and the vast Yangtze River.

The Yangtze River waves rolled and the turbid river water flowed eastward. Liu Bei stood on the top of the mountain, overlooking the vast river surface in the distance and the endless plains in the north of the Yangtze River.

And behind Liu Bei, many soldiers were setting up altars, and the soldiers stood solemnly and arranged in two rows.

At the highest point of the mountain, a large red-bottomed black flag was hung with the word "Han" written on it, which was rumbling in the southeast wind.

From beginning to end, the Liu Bei group never changed the military flag. Unlike Cao Cao, who had the military flag "Wei" since the founding of the Wei Kingdom, Sun Quan was the Marquis of Wu, and the military flag was "Wu".

After a moment, the altar rose.

Liu Bei led all the ministers and soldiers to the stage, stood on the stage, holding silk cloth, and whispered loudly: "Sacrificing for the fallen soldiers and the people! After the surrendered husband was reborn, the heroes were rewarded. Ban He was the heroes and Su Feng missed the net. The captain Zhanrong, and the vassal state was awarded. He thought of the soul being cut off and the soil was growing. He was covered with a blade, and the bones were buried in the spring. He heard that he had lost his name and was finally distinguished from the name of the emperor!"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

The melodious trumpet sounded, and the heaven and earth were solemn.

Liu Bei stood in the center of the altar, recited the sacrificial text, then threw the sacrificial text into the fire, and prayed to the heaven.

After worshiping the fallen soldiers and the people, the sound of the solemn drumbeat suddenly rang out.

The two sides of the audience were filled with Bai Li soldiers. With Chen Dao's shout, Bai Li soldiers shouted loudly, and shouted with the drums, which was shocking the sky.

"Hohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohoho!"

Amid the shouts of shouts, many soldiers slowly walked downstairs, arranged in neatly, standing in the center.

Liu Bei was wearing the costumes of princes and kings, solemnly on the high platform, overlooking the soldiers below.

Chen Chen and Guan Yu stood on both sides. When Chen saw Liu Bei seemed to be talking, he immediately pressed down with both hands and signaled the Bai Li soldiers to calm down.

Bai Libing's orders were imposed, and no longer had any noise.

Liu Bei looked around the soldiers below and said loudly: "Everyone, during the time of Emperor Ling, the Yellow Turbans were raging. Cao Cao ate the Han fortune in the world, but he eventually became a traitor in the Han Dynasty and used the emperor to command the princes. I rose up in anger and finally established a foundation in the south to resist the Wei Kingdom."

"The battle in Jingzhou was originally a battle between me and Cao Cao. Unexpectedly, the Sun family in Jiangdong was originally a Han minister, but they did not want to serve the country and instead helped the rebels. They attacked our Jingzhou land. This was a serious crime and the laws of heaven would not tolerate it."

"Fortunately, the generals fought to the death and won a great victory. However, Jiangdong was not destroyed and great achievements were not achieved. Only by first attacking Sun Wu and pacifying the internal troubles in Jiangdong can we attack the Central Plains in the north, save the Han emperor, and revive the king's throne!"

At the end, Liu Bei looked around everyone and shouted: "So, today I want to raise troops to attack them. First destroy the Eastern Wu, then attack Cao Wei in the north, and promote Yan Han three times. Do you dare to fight?"

"war!"

"war!"

"war!"

The soldiers below shouted, and their momentum soared into the sky.

"good!"

Liu Bei nodded with satisfaction and said loudly: "Where is Guan Yu!"

"The last one will be here!"

Guan Yu walked downstairs and bowed to Liu Bei on the stage.

Liu Bei took out the military order and threw it down and said, "Let you be the commander of the three armies, governing Zhao Yun's army, Huang She's army, Gan Ning's army, and take the water routes straight to Jiangdong!"

"Get orders!"

Guan Yu received the order and stood solemnly off the audience.

"Where is Wei Yan?"

"The last one will be there."

"Let you be the chief general of the Central Army, govern Wang Ping's troops, and attack Yuhang from Yishan."

"Get orders!"

Wei Yan received the order and stood aside.

"Where is Pangde?"

"The last one will be there."

Pound stood up excitedly.

In history, after following Ma Chao to Hanzhong to join Zhang Lu, he was separated from Ma Chao, and then surrendered to Cao Cao with Zhang Lu, and was eventually killed by Guan Yu in Fancheng.

But before Zhang Lu had time to surrender to Cao Cao, he was attacked by Fa Zheng using a trick, so he followed Ma Chao to join Liu Bei.

Before, Ma Chao was suppressing him, but his contribution was not obvious. But now that Ma Chao was controlled by Liu Bei, he didn't want to hang himself on a rope, and even the old Sima Chao had surrendered to Liu Bei, this was not a rebel.

So it is extremely exciting to be the leader of the First Army now.

Liu Bei looked at him seriously and said, "Let you be the commander of the Southern Army, governing the Shamoke tribe, Feng Xi tribe, and Zhang Nanbu. Departing from Nanchang and taking Qian Tang eastward."

"The last general will not be disgraceful."

Pang De happily picked up the warrant and was very excited.

Liu Bei looked around, thought for a while, and then suddenly said, "Where is Ma Chao?"

Ma Chao was in a depressed mood and his face was dull.

After all, he knew that Liu Bei was very careful and could not give him military power.

So I never expected Liu Bei to call him.

Suddenly I heard Liu Bei talking, but I didn't react for a moment.

Zhao Yun still called out softly: "General Ma, the king is calling you."

This made Ma Chao come back to his senses, shuddered, stood in the audience and said, "Mo Mo will be here!"

"After Meng Qi became General Fu Bo, he was loyal and kind for generations and a wise man in the Han Dynasty."

Liu Bei looked at everyone below and said, "Although Chief Yun is the leader in this battle, he must not be without the deputy. Let you be the deputy commander of the three armies, command five thousand soldiers and horses, assist Chief Yun, and take straight to Jiangdong!"

Ma Chao was stunned at first, but soon reacted, ecstatic in his heart, and quickly bowed: "I have the order!"

He actually led the army before.

But at that time, he followed Zhang Fei to escort the food road. Everyone knows that Zhang Fei has always been domineering. Liu Bei mainly used Zhang Fei and he was the deputy. Zhang Fei gave him hundreds of cavalry, just like the scout captain, to investigate the enemy situation everywhere.

Ma Chao also felt frustrated, but because he was fighting with Cao Cao and fighting with his father-killing enemy at that time, Ma Chao also held back his anger and did his job seriously, just to avenge his revenge.

He was extremely happy to defeat Cao Cao later. However, Liu Bei took him to Jiangzhou again, not giving him the opportunity to lead the troops, and also made him feel sad.

However, Ma Chao also understood that he had a lot of bad deeds, so it would be nice if Liu Bei could accept him, and it was unlikely that he would give him military power.

Therefore, at that time, Ma Chao had even made plans to die of Yizhou so sad that he was old.

Unexpectedly, after Liu Bei brought him to Jingzhou, he actually gave him military power. Although there were only 5,000 people, this was also a good start, which immediately made him very excited.

Shen Chen on the stage unexpectedly glanced at Liu Bei.

After thinking about it, I couldn't help but admire Liu Bei's high emotional intelligence like before.

When he was young, Liu Bei was not actually having low EQ, but rather that he didn't want to become what he hated.
