"Where is Sun Quan now?"

When he learned that Sun Quan had entered Chaohu, Wang Ling, who had been well prepared, immediately led his army from Shouchun and went south to support Hefei New City.

Hefei New Town is built on Jiming Mountain, where two large water streams originate.

Although the origins of these two water flows are in this area, their flow directions are exactly opposite.

One line runs from north to south and flows into Chaohu Lake, which is called Shishui.

After Sun Quan led his army into Chaohu Lake, they could go upstream along the Shishui River and arrive at the foot of Hefei New City.

The other one flows from south to north, passes through Shouchun, and flows into the Huai River, which is called Feishui River.

Shouchun's Wang Ling can also lead the charge against the tide of fertility and support Hefei New City.

Even though Wu's boat masters were much stronger and faster than Wei's.

However, the defenders of the new city could hold on for at most three or four days, which would be enough to support the arrival of Shouchun's army.

It has to be said that Manchong's vision in selecting the location of the new city was indeed unique.

Only this time, I don't know whether Wang Ling's support was too fast or Sun Quan's advance was too slow.

Wang Ling has led his army to Hefei for two days. Even the fortifications at the foot of Jiming Mountain are almost completed, but there is still no sign of Sun Quan.

"Reporting to the Governor, according to spies, Sun Quan has been staying in Xiaoyaojin these days and seems to be gathering troops."

"The Wu invaders made a large-scale invasion this time. The army did not gather together for a while, but it makes sense."

There are also some concerns:

"Commander, Sun Quan is delaying in arriving. Is it possible that there is fraud?"

Wang Ling smiled coldly:

"Even if he is deceitful, can he still avoid Hefei and Lu'an?"

Now he has led the army to Hefei, forming a horned force with Lu'an.

No matter which direction Sun Quan's main attack is, they can all echo each other.

Although Wen Qin, the prefect of Liu'an, was at odds with him, Wen Qin could be regarded as a loyal minister of the Wei Dynasty.

Wang Ling believed that he would not abandon the overall situation because of personal grudges.

Besides, the one who controls the army now is himself, not Wen Qin.

Even if Wen Qin is passive and lazy in fighting, there is no need to worry too much.

To aid or not to aid, when to aid, how to aid, the initiative lies with oneself and not with others.

After the war, you can even go to the court again to prove that Wen Qin is indeed not suitable for guarding the border, and ask the court to recall him, which will just fulfill your wish.

Of course, if Wen Qin is not too stupid, then he should guard Liu'an and not give himself this opportunity.

"As for Sun Quan's delay in arriving," Wang Ling sneered, "Isn't that normal?"

"When Lu Xun attacked Lu'an, Sun Quan personally led the army into Chaohu to attack Hefei to support him. What was the result?"

"Man Boning just sent people to pretend to be in the area of ​​Chaohu and Shishui, so that Sun Quan could not move forward."

"As a result, Lu Xun had to face the danger of being cut off from his retreat, and he missed a great opportunity to capture Lu'an."

Having said this, the sneer on Wang Ling's face became even more intense:

"The land of Hefei has probably become a hurdle that Sun Quan cannot overcome."

"Especially in the past, I was beaten to death by Zhang Wenyuan. If he arrived at Xiaoyaojin and didn't wander around for a while, I would feel that it was not normal."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone on the left and right laughed.

Sun Quan repeatedly failed to attack Hefei. In addition, Hefei moved to a new city and was built on the mountain. It was no longer on the edge of Chao Lake as before, which was conducive to the performance of the Wu boat division.

The fine cavalry of the Wei Dynasty could not cross the river, so how could the Wu boatmen go on land to attack the city?

If they want to attack Hefei New City, they must abandon ship and land.

When did the fine cavalry of the Wei Dynasty fear the Wu people on land?

"Send the order to expand the camps around Hefei and dig more trenches. If Sun Quan doesn't come, we will not stop."

"Even if Sun Quan brings 100,000 troops, I want to see how he captures Hefei."

"Here!"

As the main force of the Wu army, Sun Quan was still lingering at the entrance where Shishui poured into Chaohu Lake, while Zhuge Ke, as the partial force, marched quickly.

He received part of the troops from Stone City, including the student army from Han Dynasty.

Then without pausing for a moment, he directly led the fleet up the Wanshui River.

After traveling on the waterway for a while, they disembarked at a certain place, and then led the army through the stone pavilion, trailers, and stones, and entered Shu County in the Wei Kingdom.

At this time, Shu County was already an abandoned city.

Because when Zhuge Ke first came to station troops in Wankou, he took advantage of Wei's unpreparedness and attacked Shu County, plundered the people of Wei and returned.

After these years of management, Zhuge Ke's troops repeatedly crossed the border, forcing Wei to move the people on the border into the interior and away from the border.

Therefore, this area of ​​Shu County is already considered a no-man's land.

This kind of thing is already commonplace on the Wei-Wu border by the river.

Zhuge Ke was familiar with the terrain in this area. He allowed the rushing army to rest and reorganize temporarily, and then sent scouts to go north.

After confirming that there was no Wei army to intercept in the north, Zhuge Ke immediately ordered his army to break camp and attack Lu'an.

Within three days, Wu Jun had already arrived at the gate of Lu'an City.

"Besiege the city and cut down the trees!"

Although Zhuge Ke was a headstrong man, it must be said that he was indeed talented.

Over the years, he has been training troops and working in the fields in Wankou.

At this time, the soldiers below received the military order and immediately followed the order in an orderly manner.

In order to prevent Lu Xun from following in his footsteps, Zhuge Ke specially sent people to set up camp in the north to prevent the Wei army from coming from the north.

At the same time, troops were sent to drive away the native people in the north of Lu'an City to prevent them from leaking any information to the Wei army who might come over.

"This isn't right!"

Luo Xian, Fu Qian and others who followed the army had a small camp alone.

At night, Fu Qian and Luo Xian discussed:

"When I came from Stone City, I paid special attention to it. This time the Wu people went to war, there may not be less than 100,000 people, and the supplies carried by their fleet are immeasurable."

"Mr. Ma also said that the people of Wu stationed all the food and grass supported by us Han in Stone City just to attack the Wei thieves this time."

"Anyway, the Wu people have mobilized their troops this time. Isn't it a little reckless for Zhuge Yuanxun (Zhuge Ke) to march like this?"

What Zhuge Ke led was a partial division. He advanced too aggressively and was out of touch with the main force. It would be easy for the enemy to take advantage of him.

"Logically speaking, Sun Quan must gather his army at Chaohu before attacking the city. Judging from the current journey, unless Sun Quan is traveling as fast as Zhuge Ke."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid we may not be able to reach Hefei City now."

Luo Xian wanted to be more cautious. He nodded in agreement with Fu Qian's statement, and then said:

"But then again, Zhuge Ke can be regarded as the leader of the young generation of the Wu Kingdom, and he is more like a teacher than a teacher."

"Although this is an exaggeration, I heard that he has guarded Wankou over the years and has made many military exploits. If the rumors are true, I am afraid this man is indeed a talented person."

"He is doing this now, but I don't know if he is doing it on purpose or because he is eager to achieve merit?"

Fu Qian pondered for a moment and said:

"I feel that Wu Ren's actions may be deceptive."

When Luo Xian heard this, he raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

"Think about it, although we came here with the Wu people this time, they shouldn't be able to let us go into battle. They just let us follow them to train their ships."

"According to this reason, Zhuge Ke will not put us in danger unless they don't care about those who are still learning to ride and fight in the Han Dynasty."

Fu Qian analyzed it in detail:

"If not, it would be better for us to follow them to Chaohu. There will be more opportunities for boating there and it will be safer."

Luo Xian sighed:

"It's a pity that we have no way of knowing Wu Jun's secret."

"It would be good to deduce it..."

"Right……"

This time, the student camp followed us, saying that we were practicing boat maneuvering skills.

But since landing on the Wanshui River, they have been regarded as a logistics army, urging civilians and auxiliary troops to transport food to the front.

This is also expected. Since they can't go into battle, instead of sending them to the front of the battle to watch the battle, it's better to transport food at the back.
