Three Kingdoms: I choose to assist Sun Jian

Seeing this, Xi Zhong couldn't help thinking that it was bad.

Liu Biao's words alone offended this group of civil and military officials.

But when Liu Biao asked, he had to say nothing.

At the moment, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say:

"The plan for now is not to act rashly. We must first find out the specific strategic steps of the enemy!"

"Only by ascertaining the enemy's strategic steps can we proceed to the next move!"

"Otherwise, any action may lead to an irreversible end!"

"I see!"

Hearing this, Liu Biao nodded repeatedly and said:

"Since this is the case, sir, can you help our army find out?"

"I don't know what sir needs?"

"detail!"

Xi Zhong said in a deep voice:

"Now, all the details and circumstances of Jingzhou!"

"Bai Liming has a characteristic of fighting wars, that is, he is used to taking all available factors into his strategy before going to war!"

"Therefore, if you want to reverse this person's strategy, you must first know what this person can use!"

"In addition, we must know where his strategy is now!"

"To know this, we must analyze the battle reports that can be collected now!"

"It just so happens that Prefect Cai is retreating in defeat. I can ask when and how Jiangling City fell!"

"it is good!"

Liu Biao heard that Xi Zhong said clearly and logically, and felt a little relieved immediately, and immediately said:

"Then I'll have someone tell Cai Mao to hurry back!"

"Come on, hurry up and send someone to tell Cai Mao, if you arrive in the city, come to the mansion first!"

After saying that, he said loyally to the play:

"De Gui can't come here for the time being. If you have any questions, sir, you can speak up."

"Then you're welcome!"

It was related to Cao Jun's great cause, and Xi Zhong didn't care too much, so he started to ask Kuai Yue.

From the deployment of troops to the relevant staffing in each county.

When Kuai Yue heard this, he naturally replied one by one.

After asking for a long time, Xi Zhong just frowned and said:

"So, the prefects of the four southern counties are not appointed by the envoy himself?"

He was surprised by the situation.

But among these vassals, as long as they are a little ambitious and get a place, it doesn't matter what the imperial appointment is, but any prefect will be directly pulled down and replaced by his own people!

But how long has Liu Biao been in Jingzhou!

He won Jingzhou before Sun Jian and them. The four southern counties have a population of almost 200 million. How could Liu Biao not control it?

At this level, you still want to learn how to fight for hegemony?

Facing Xi Zhong's doubts, Liu Bian couldn't help frowning and said:

"This is because when I arrived, these people were already in the four counties~〃!"

"Later, Zirou suggested that the four counties' biography could be decided, so I sent a silk letter to tell the four counties!"

"The four counties also expressed their submission to this. Last year, they also reported the situation in the county as usual, and the soldiers and horses also obeyed the dispatch, so I didn't care much!"

As he spoke, he said to Xi Zhong in a deep voice:

"Mr. Xi, what's wrong with this?"

"There's nothing wrong with that!"

Xi Zhong frowned and said:

"I just want to ask, among these four counties, is every prefect obedient to the transfer?"

"Is there any kind of person who is submissive in the face and disobedient in the heart?"

"This"

Hearing Xi Zhong's words, everyone immediately looked at each other in blank dismay, only Kuai Yue said in a deep voice:

"But there is this person, Zhang Xian, the prefect of Changsha, who was originally the prefect of Guiyang. After Sun Jian left, he was transferred to be the prefect of Changsha."

"This person has been an official in Jingzhou for more than ten years. He has successively served as the prefect of Lingling and Guiyang counties, and has won the hearts of the people."

"Probably because he felt that the next governor of Jingzhou should be led by him, so when he took over, he complained a lot. He obeyed the lord's orders on the surface, but in reality he obeyed and disobeyed!"

"Ugh!"

Hearing this, Xi Zhong sighed again:

"Why does this person stay!"

"I know why Bai Liming dared to suggest that Sun Jian go deep alone!"

"With this piece of paper in Changsha, the soldiers and horse envoys of the four southern counties don't have to think about it!"

When Liu Biao heard this, he was shocked and said:

"Sir, what you mean is that Zhang Xian will betray our army and be recruited by the enemy!"

"Absolutely!"

Xi Zhong said in a deep voice:

"Bailiming is so good at gaining people's hearts. Our army and Tao Qian had already formed an alliance to deal with Sun Jian's army. But when this man came, he dragged Tao Qian over!"

"There is Zhang Xian in Changsha now, the enemy will never give up on him!"

"Once Zhang Xian is drawn over by the enemy, then Sun Jian's army will have no worries for a short time!"

"As long as they can capture Jiangling, they will have a firm foothold!"

"It can be said that the enemy army has seen this for sure, so they dared to go deep into the hinterland of Jingzhou!"

"Now that Jiangling City falls, the direction of the four southern counties is basically not to say that they are waiting for the wind, but at least they are watching from the sidelines!"

boom!

After Xi Zhong finished his analysis, Liu Biao slapped the case angrily, and shouted angrily:

"Zhang Xian is a hateful thief!"

"If we had known this before, this thief should have been eliminated as soon as possible!"

"Otherwise, why did you condone and raise traitors so far!"

Fortunately, before he was full of hope, he sent soldiers and horses from the four southern counties to come north to help!

The place he can still control now is actually only half of Nanjun, one Jiangxia, and part of Nanyang area north of Xiangyang!

Half of the entire Jingzhou has fallen!

The more Kuai thought of this place, his complexion turned pale and he said:

"In this way, the enemy army has already stood its ground, and the four southern counties will not come to the north to help, so the available troops of our army will be reduced again!"

"And now our army's navy has been wiped out. When the enemy's navy arrives, our army will be separated from Jiangxia and the north bank by rivers!"

"Doesn't that mean that our army's strength is not only small, but it may also be divided into three parts by the enemy?"

"Correct!"

Xi Zhong nodded and said:

"If I'm not mistaken, this is Bai Liming's second strategy!"

"After achieving this step of strategy, the enemy's navy has formed an iron wall, which can divide your army's territory into three parts through the waterway!"

"And once they have assembled their forces, they can use their superior forces to choose to defeat each of them."

As he spoke, his words suddenly stopped, his eyes opened suddenly, and he said anxiously to Kuai Yue:

"Mr. Kuai, may I ask how long it will take to get here from Jiangling?"

Seeing this, Kuai Yue was startled and said;

"Slower for seven or eight days, faster for four or five days!"

"Why do you ask this, sir?"

Hearing this, Xi Zhong hurriedly said:

"Bailiming is the best at quick attack, and I just launched his second strategy, but in fact, this person's current strategy has reached the third step!"

"Since the fall of Jiangling, he has already started to plan the third step!"

"Now Jingzhou has been cut into several pieces by his navy, so for them, there is no need to attack them one by one!"

"As long as he concentrates his superior forces to go northward and defeat the defenders of Xiangyang, he can win the battle of Jingzhou!"

"Bai Liming's third strategy is to gather the 10,000+ army that Sun Jianjun dispatched this time, and go north to encircle Xiangyang!"

"¨And now the news of General Cai's retreat has come back, that is to say, Sun Jian's army started marching at least four or five days ago!"

"At most, I'm afraid they've marched for seven or eight days!"

"Even if he wants to defeat Jingzhou's reinforcements, his follow-up troops can go directly north!"

"That is to say, within a short period of time, Sun Jian will lead an army of 10,000+ northward to encircle Xiangyang City!"

Having said that, he hurriedly said to Li Dian:

"Man City, quickly send someone out to find out if there are any marines on the river!"

Seeing that Xi Zhong was so anxious, Li Dian hurriedly got up and said:

"promise!"

After answering, he hurriedly took the order and left.

When Liu Biao and Kuai Yue heard this, they were a little confused for a while.

Fortunately, they still feel that the form can still be maintained.

As a result, Xi Zhong's arrival instantly shattered their beautiful imagination.

Killing in just three steps?

10,000+ troops coming soon?

What a fast rush game!

Co-authored From the surprise battle, the enemy army is ready for a decisive battle!

Instead of slowly attacking the city and conquering the territory as they imagined, and then attacking with all their strength after the army is assembled!

For a moment, not only Liu Biao Kuai Yue, but also the rest of the people were distracted for a while.

As for Xi Zhong, the moment he deduced the news, he subconsciously wanted to run away!

I thought the battle situation on the south bank of Jingzhou could still be saved!

But when he came to see it, it was more than just a rotten battle situation!

If he spent ten days and a half months in the north before setting off, then by the time he arrived, Liu Biao might have been wiped out!

After all, Liu Biao rode into Jingzhou alone at the beginning, and it was the gentry and tricks that won Jingzhou.

Although this kind of land obtained is simple, it is far inferior to the solid land they have struck down with one knife and one gun!

If Liu Biao stayed for more than ten years and cultivated an army loyal to him, that would be interesting!

But now he doesn't even stand firm, how can there be so many loyal subordinates under his command!
