Even Liu Bei, who had traveled the world for half his life and was knowledgeable, was stunned by the words of his two-year-old son.
"Hahahahaha, Ah Dou, this kid is promising. I've long wanted to kill Zhou Yu.”Zhang Fei reacted quickly and immediately supported Liu Chan in killing Zhou Yu.
Liu Bei looked at Liu Chan with a strange expression, wondering if this was really his son. When he was two years old, he was still playing under the mulberry trees in Lou Sang Village with a group of children. Looking at the mulberry trees that covered the sky and the sun, he casually shouted that he would definitely ride in such a car with an umbrella when he grew up. Who knew that his uncle Liu Zijing would hear it and beat him up without saying anything.
The two-year-old him was obviously still a simple-minded person, but now his son was like a demon, wanting to kill a general.
"What nonsense are you spouting?" Liu Bei reprimanded Liu Chan after a brief moment of absent-mindedness.
"Father, I came to Jiangling to kill Zhou Yu. I thought that once Zhou Yu died, River East might withdraw its troops.
However, after hearing what Third Uncle said today, even if Zhou Yu died, Jiang Dong would not abandon all their previous efforts and retreat now.
But I thought of a key point that is enough to make Jiang Dong retreat.”Liu Chan said mysteriously.
Zhang Fei had a conversation with Liu Chan today, so he asked,""What key?"
"Release Li Tong and Man Chong into Jiangling, and let Second Uncle pretend to be defeated and flee back to Jiangling.”Liu Chan said.
Zhang Fei understood very quickly,"This way, Jiang Dong will definitely retreat when he sees the reinforcements!"”
Liu Bei thought for a moment." Jiang Dong has retreated. Cao Cao's reinforcements have arrived. Our army is not as strong as Jiang Dong's. How are we going to take South County?"”
"As long as we have 10,000 troops, Jiangling will be conquered within two months.”Liu Chan said confidently.
Liu Bei would not believe Liu Chan just like that. He exchanged a glance with Zhang Fei and then opened a simple map of South County.
"I almost understand what you mean.”Liu Bei said.
"Have Commander Yun release Li Tong and Man Chong into Jiangling. Zhou Yu is dead, and Jiang Dong will retreat when reinforcements arrive.
We will continue to attack Jiangling.
We can let Zilong block Cao Cao's reinforcements while our Jiangling Army continues to attack Jiangling.”Liu Bei said.
"We have enough soldiers to mobilize the army.”Zhang Fei said.
Liu Bei didn't comment on it, staring at the map and carefully looking at the cities around Jiangling City. Some of these cities had been conquered, while others were still stubbornly resisting the Cao army.
"Why do you say that Jiangling City will fall within two months?”Liu Bei asked.
"After cutting off the reinforcements from the north, Jiangling, which has been replenished by Li Tong and Man Chong, will still be difficult to conquer in a short period of time.”
"After Jiang Dong retreats, the Jiang Dong Navy will also retreat. Without the blockade of the river, it will be difficult for our army to fight Cao Cao alone.”
"Moreover, this is a breach of the alliance.”
Liu Bei's words rendered Liu Chan speechless.
Zhang Fei smiled and patted Liu Chan's head.""It's already quite good that you have such thoughts.
It's just that you're still young and haven't thought of it more comprehensively.”
Third Uncle was not the reckless and brainless Zhang Fei in novels or Romance, but Liu Bei's image had remained the same for more than a thousand years.
All of the things mentioned before were not difficult for Liu Bei, who had been defeated repeatedly but was still alive and kicking.
It was just that Liu Bei would never betray the alliance, something that went against his character and way of doing things.
There was no other reason. The thinking of the ancients was even more simple. Their love for their own wings was something that the modern people, who placed interests above all else, could not understand.
Perhaps because the eras were too far apart, it was difficult for people in the future to have a sense of immersion.
But Liu Chan was not willing to give up, because once he abandoned River East and took South County, the benefits would be huge.
……
"Cao Cao's navy has been completely wiped out after the Battle of Red Cliff. The remaining remnants of the Jing State navy can be dealt with by the remnants of the Jing State navy.”
"The reason why we can break through Jiangling in two months is because within two months, there will be an earthquake in Jiangling.”
"Father, it's a bit of a betrayal. It's just that it's a little unethical to send reinforcements here, but Zhou Yu won't be able to survive.
Father, think about it. After we take South County, we will have another South Jing County.”
South County had a large population and rich resources. Liu Biao had been in Jingzhou for more than ten years and had always focused on South County. Nanyang County, which was the largest county in Jingzhou and even the largest county in the world, had been prosperous because of years of war and frequent military disasters. Most of the people and wealthy families in the county fled south to avoid the chaos.
Moreover, after taking down South County, they would have a springboard to march into Yizhou. This was the biggest benefit.
"This world is chaotic. If you don't take the benefits, others will.
The whole world was like a pie, and this pie was only so big. Cao Cao had drawn half of it, and the three generations of Jiangdong had drawn half of it with their efforts.
Now, there was only one-third of the cake left.
Cao Cao was a traitor of the Han Dynasty, and Sun Quan of Jiangdong was the one who had succeeded. In this life, he would probably only be able to live in a corner. He only wanted to protect this little family business in his mind and had no intention of reviving the Han Dynasty.
Father, the rise and fall of the Han Dynasty depends on you.
If he didn't plan for South County, how could Uncle Liang achieve his goal? How will you realize your great cause of reviving the Han Dynasty?”
Liu Bei was already numb to the way Liu Chan spoke and behaved like a two-year-old child. This child was too mature.
Liu Bei was silent.
Ever since the uprising in Zhuo County in the first year of Zhongping, it had been twenty-five years since Liu Bei had risen and fallen in this world. In these twenty-five years, Liu Bei had experienced countless life and death situations. He had built tall buildings time and time again, but they had collapsed in an instant. His idea of reviving the Han Dynasty had never changed. Instead, because of these twenty-five years of experience, Liu Bei had become more and more determined in this belief.
Liu Bei and the Shu Han that he had built were the base camp of idealists in the troubled times of the late Han Dynasty. The entire camp was fighting for the ideal of reviving the Han Dynasty. In the end, they died without regret.
But at this moment, when the beliefs he had held onto for his entire life and the way he had conducted himself conflicted, Liu Bei fell into a deep contradiction.
There was no doubt about Jiangling's strategic position. Even those who did not understand military affairs could understand its importance. With Jiangling, they would have South County. With South County, they could suppress Jingnan and threaten River East. If they did not have any thoughts about River East, they could also try to take Yizhou from the west.
