Chapter 506 Big Tiger? Xiaohu? Are These Really Two Tigers?

In any case, Ruxukou still had to send people to support. In addition to mobilizing troops from Soochow, Lujiang also had to provide some support.

This is the conclusion reached by Sun Quan and a group of civil and military officials after a heated discussion.

But a new problem arises, who should be sent to support?

He Qi and Jiang Qin were already one of the few generals who could resist Guan Yu head-on. In addition, Sun Quan looked around at the generals in front of him: Quan Cong, Tian Yi, Xie Jing, Lu Dai, Lu Fan...

Haha, in the past Zhang Liao defeated the armies of Lu Meng, Chen Wu, Gan Ning, Ling Tong, Pan Zhang, Song Qian, Xu Sheng, Ding Feng, Jiang Qin, and He Qi in Xiaoyaojin.

Ling Tong was almost hacked to death, Chen Wu died in battle, and Xu Sheng's ancient ingot sword was knocked out of his hand... The rest of the soldiers were frightened to death, and then Zhang Liao and the eight hundred Shanxi men hacked them alive all morning.

I was so frustrated that I lost my temper...

Compared with the "Heaven Regiment" back then, these generals in front of them were really not good enough.

"well…"

Sun Quan sighed deeply, once again experiencing the pain of "it's hard to find a general".

at this time…

Gu Yong's eyes fixed, and he suggested: "I recommend Xu Sheng... Today's General Xu Sheng is still in Lujiang. He is also good at naval and land warfare. He has lived in Jiangdong for a long time. He has also participated in three battles at Ruxukou. He is extremely familiar with the terrain. Familiar, if it were him... he might be able to defeat Zhang Liao in a water battle!"

As soon as Xu Sheng's name came out.

Someone immediately echoed, this time it was Lu Fan who echoed, "Yes, when my lord succeeded to the throne, General Xu Shengsheng was stationed in Chaisang. At that time, facing the invasion of Huang Zu's son Huang She, he had less than 200 men. Huang She's troops resisted and killed more than a thousand of Huang She's troops. Later, they opened the door and took the initiative to fight, defeating Huang She. After Huang She was repulsed, Huang She never dared to invade again..."

"Cao Cao invaded Ruxukou several times, and General Xu also took the lead bravely. He used a small number to defeat a large number many times. He is already one of the few generals in Soochow who can rival Zhang Liao! It's just..."

Lu Fan spoke in a high tone before, but in the end, as if because of a sudden thought, he lowered his tone and changed the subject, "It's just that I heard that Generals Zhou Tai, Pan Zhang, and Ma Zhong were killed in the battle of Jiangling, and General Xu Sheng also died. He was seriously injured... It has only been a while now, and I am afraid that General Xu's injury has not recovered... I am afraid that if I attack rashly at this time... I am afraid..."

Facing the question raised by Lu Fan, Gu Yong waved his hand directly, "A general? Who has never been injured? Could it be that he was injured... He didn't even take action when Soochow was in danger? Did he just sit on the sidelines? This person deserves to be General of Soochow?"

Gu Yong's words left Lu Fan speechless...

The civil and military officials in the palace also began to whisper and discuss in low voices.

"Ahem..."

In the end, these discussions came to an abrupt end under Sun Quan's slight cough. Sun Quan's green eyes narrowed into slits, his brows slightly condensed, and he said in a deep voice: "What Mr. Gu said is absolutely true. If there is an emergency, follow the authority. Once he recovers from his injuries and recovers from his illness, the lonely Soochow may no longer exist!"

Speaking of this, Sun Quan immediately ordered, "Pass the solitary order and order Xu Sheng to lead 200 warships and 15,000 naval troops to rush to the aid of Ruxukou and Ruxu guard Zhou Xun to attack from inside and outside. They are about to defeat Zhang Wenyuan. Zhuang The military spirit of our Soochow army strengthens the fighting spirit of our three armies!"

…

…

Lujiang River, the last barrier to the east of Wujiang River, at this moment...because of the urgency and tightness of the situation, even the clouds in the sky seemed extremely depressed.

Countless Wu soldiers gathered together and discussed something in low voices.

"What if we lose this battle? What then?"

"It's just the king's flag changing at the top of the city. It's not like I haven't experienced it before. Life goes on as usual..."

"What you said is true, but...there is a premise!"

"What premise?"

"Alive——"

As the two words "alive" came out of the mouths of the Soochow soldiers, soon...these two words spread throughout the Lujiang River and throughout the entire naval force.

Yes... In this situation, everyone no longer cares about who can win the final victory. After all, victory... belongs to the lord, but life is his own!

——"Alive...alive..."

——『Go on living! 』

——"Stay alive and welcome the new Kodong?" 』

In such a complicated and cold atmosphere.

Inside the Lujiang official office, "What?" He Qi slapped the table angrily, "Is my lord crazy? Doesn't he know that General Xu Sheng is still seriously injured? He actually sent him to help Ruxukou to fight Zhang Liao? This...isn't this sending...sending death!"

As a young general, He Qi is brave enough to fight, but he also has the brains... to understand the current situation and know how to assess the situation.

However, the current situation is that in the face of Guan Yu's oppression, He Qi and Jiang Qin cannot leave Lujiang City, so... the only choice is to let Xu Sheng, who is injured, go.

But the opponent happened to be Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan. Even Xu Sheng in his heyday might not be his opponent, let alone now.

"Gongmiao (He Qi), calm down..." Jiang Qin shouted to He Qi, and put his hand on He Qi's shoulder, suppressing his angry mood: "Lujiang is important! But Ruxukou is not Is it important? If the Ruxukou is broken, Jiangdong's supply to the Lujiang River will be completely cut off. Also... Zhang Wenyuan can use the Ruxu Port as a springboard to retreat and attack the Lujiang River with Guan Yu inside and outside, and to attack Jianye in Soochow. City! It is impossible for Marquis Wu to sit back and watch Ruxukou fall... Jiangdong will no longer be able to gather a decent army of troops!"

this…

Although Jiang Qin's words are heartbreaking,...this is the fact, an ironclad fact.

"But General Xu Sheng..."

Before Jiang Qin could say anything, there was a "bang" and the door was pushed open. Xu Sheng, with his left shoulder still wrapped in a thick bandage, strode into the official office.

"I, Xu Sheng, am just injured, not crippled, let alone dead... Nowadays, Soochow is in trouble, even a small soldier from Jiangdong still has the heart to protect his family, his country, and his territory... What about me, Xu Sheng? In the past, General Bo Fu is very kind to me, and I also promised General Bo Fu that anyone who invades the territory of Wu will be attacked and defeated! I am determined to turn this natural barrier of the Yangtze River into an iron wall east of my river!"

Xu Sheng said a lot in one breath...

The implication is nothing more than - fight, fight, fight!

These words immediately ignited the passion and pride of all civil and military personnel in the entire government office.

Only He Qi clenched his fists and murmured: "Xu...General Xu..."

In fact, what He Qi wanted to say was - "The other party is Zhang Liao!" It’s that eight hundred to one hundred thousand, it’s Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan who made Jiangdong’s children stop crying! 』

But when the words came to his lips, He Qi still swallowed them.

Xu Sheng seemed to have a bright mind. He patted He Qi on the shoulder, "That's Zhang Liao over there, and Guan Yu over here. It's not easy for you or me..."

"What I'm worried about is..." He Qi finally said everything in his heart, "What I'm worried about is... that Zhang Liao is deceiving. What if... if he was besieging Wei to rescue Zhao, his original intention was to surround Ruxukou and rescue him? What if General Xu has a shoulder injury? I haven’t recovered yet. I’m going to meet Zhang Liao. Wouldn’t it be bad..."

He Qi only started to speak the words "bad luck, bad luck" before being covered up by Xu Sheng's higher tone, "Mr. Miao, I know you are doing it for my own good, but... the situation has reached this point, even then Zhang Liao waited for work and prepared an ambush, so why don't we go to the rescue? Are we just going to watch the whole Soochow being cut up and disintegrated? Since the current situation is difficult to consider between offense and defense, and a dilemma, then... let's use offense as defense. , Defeat the enemy and defend Jiang, it’s just a matter of death!”

Having said this, Xu Sheng finally used his healthy arm to place heavy pressure on He Qi's shoulder. His eyes were as bright as fire, "After I take away these two hundred warships, Lujiang's naval forces will no longer have any numerical advantage." , you and Gong Yi (Jiang Qin) must be careful in everything. If you and I are not destroyed, there will always be hope in Soochow. If you and I are destroyed, then the situation will be irreversible... Here, please—— "

While talking, Xu Sheng had already taken Sun Quan's edict, then turned around, holding the edict high, and walked out, shouting.

"We served in the army to defend our country, and we have put life and death at risk for a long time. Now the enemy is so terrifying. We are eager to face the difficulties and attack them angrily. If we are defeated - we will die!"

Xu Sheng's loud and clear voice resounded throughout the Lujiang River and among the ships and warships along the river.

These words and the spirit of these words made everyone stand in awe when they heard them——

…

…

"Take a big bird called calamus as its two wings, with a head and body covered with hair, a collar and a ring of buttons, it flies a hundred steps, and then falls -"

On the outskirts of Chaisang City, Guan Yu and Xu Shu both raised their heads and looked at something. It turned out that there were several huge kites in the sky, which also aroused Xu Shu's emotion.

As for what he was feeling emotional about, it was an "interesting thing" that happened during Wang Mang's new dynasty.

It was the sixth year of Wang Mang Tianfeng's reign in the new dynasty. In order to attack the Xiongnu, Wang Mang ordered the recruitment of powerful people.

One day, someone said he could fly, and Wang Mang was happy to let him demonstrate it on the spot. The man then performed a flight demonstration in Chang'an...

To put it simply, a person is tied to a huge kite, and then soared in the sky with the help of the wind... He flew straight for a hundred steps before landing.

This matter is recorded in the "Book of Han·Biography of Wang Mang", so Xu Shu immediately thought of this when he saw the huge kite in the sky, and he also expressed such emotion.

Following Xu Shu's words, Guan Yu nodded slightly, "If you go by what Yuan Zhi said with emotion, then maybe what Yun Qi mentioned, that after training, people can really fly in the sky with the help of this big kite, is definitely not a myth... "

"Hahaha..." Hearing this, Xu Shu smiled, "Master Yunqi still brings so many surprises to people. Whatever he says, no matter how incredible it is, I am willing to believe it..."

Ha ha…

Guan Yu also smiled slightly, but he didn't know whether it was because of his son's pride or because the revival of the Han Dynasty was just around the corner...

As the laughter faded, he said with emotion: "The letter from Yunqi said that the flying ball can be brilliant in the Xiangfan battlefield and even the Huainan battlefield because there are many plains and basins here and few hills and mountains. But if it is in Bashu The land there is very mountainous... The flying ball is too big to be used. If the flying ball is raised high, the mountains will block the sight of the flying ball... Therefore... if people can fly in the sky with the help of kites and make the target smaller, Then you can soar between the mountains, and indirectly achieve the effect of flying balls to control the air!"

"Unexpectedly..." Xu Shu sighed with emotion: "Unexpectedly, Yun Qi has turned his attention to the Bashu battlefield..."

"My son always looks far and thinks far. Perhaps in his view, Jingzhou alone may be able to severely defeat the Ni Wei, but it cannot completely defeat the Ni Wei... The future confrontation between the north and the south will include the Hanzhong battlefield, the Xiangfan battlefield, and the Huainan battlefield. , only by attacking these three places together and winning consecutive battles in these three places can the reverse Wei be able to focus on one thing and lose another, and the foundation will be shaken——"

Following Guan Yu's words, his eyes narrowed into slits, as if... Judging from the current situation, Yun Qi's strategic concept has taken a big step forward...

We are still two steps away from final realization.

One step is to destroy Soochow, the other step is to conquer Hanzhong!

It is no exaggeration to say that the light of hope for the revival of the Han Dynasty has appeared——

When Guan Yu and Xu Shu were watching the kites and sighing with emotion.

Zhou Cang hurried over: "Second General... On the other side of the Lujiang River, the enemy's ship has moved..."

Well…

Guan Yu's eyes suddenly condensed. He and Xu Shu looked at each other, and then said directly: "Go to the big tent and say——"

Not long after...

Civil and military personnel gathered inside the central tent of the Guan Family Army... Outside the tent, the Guan Family soldiers stood solemnly, heavily guarded.

Zhou Cang's report came faintly, "Early this morning, at Wankou Port outside Lujiang City... the enemy's ships are mobilizing. About half of the warships and naval forces are heading northward on the river. They seem to be going to support the ships at Ruxukou... In addition to the banner with the word "Wu" on it, the banner with the word "Xu" is fluttering in the river wind, as if... the person leading the army to rescue Ruxukou this time is Xu Sheng."

"Xu Sheng..."

When Zhou Cang reported all the intelligence, Guan Yu repeated the name of the enemy general, and then immediately ordered, as if he had been prepared, "Send my military order, and the whole army will wave their flags and shout, and make signs of attacking at any time..."

"Here!" Zhou Cang took the order and went to make arrangements...

In such an atmosphere, Guan Ping, Guan Yinping, Wang Fu and others can naturally feel the urgency of the imminent war.

They all asked for orders to defeat the enemy...

After Guan Yu only asked them to perform their respective duties, he ordered these sons and lieutenants to withdraw from the big tent. For a while, the atmosphere in the entire Guan family army became tense...

However, Xu Shu and Guan Yu were the only two people left in the big tent with gentle expressions, chatting and laughing as usual.

When the sound of footsteps leaving outside the tent gradually dissipated, Xu Shu, who seemed to have seen through everything, stroked his beard and laughed, "Hahahaha... I only heard that before the Battle of Guandu in the past, Guan Gong's white horse beheaded Yan Liang, but I never thought about it. , that white horse miracle... will be performed again on the Lujiang-Ruxukou battlefield!"

Xu Shu saw the truth and the truth, and also understood Guan Yu's plan. This was not surprising to Guan Yu. He stepped forward to the map and pointed at the waterway from Lujiang River to Ruxukou.

As if... the meaning couldn't be clearer. Under the successive arrangements of Guan Yu and Zhang Liao, the Wu army has divided its forces. This is a taboo when the enemy is weak and strong. They are bound to fail in this waterway——

Xu Shu's eyes also glanced at the map, "It's another White Horse battle, but it's a pity that this time it's no longer Yun Chang who kills the leader of the thieves and makes immortal achievements."

"It was Guan Mou's son who beheaded him, so it's the same as Guan Mou's beheading -"

Guan Yu only left this sentence.

It seemed that he was neither taking credit nor being proud, but was looking at the map with great interest, as if he was quite interested in what was about to happen and couldn't wait.

But Xu Shu...

From Guan Yu's words, he heard something meaningful.

For example, Guan Yu said...this Xu Sheng was beheaded by his son? The son...of course is Guan Lin! But...in fact, shouldn't it be Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan who set up an ambush in the waterway here?

It seems that Guan Yu's words... there is something in his words.

This strategy is to seek profit and make the tree bloom!

…

…

"Cough cough cough..."

On a Soochow ship, this was Xu Sheng's second day sailing on the river. The fleet was not traveling very fast, but at the same time it was extremely careful.

It is true that Xu Sheng was a brave man, but he was also a cautious person. His reckless temper had been forcibly corrected when he followed Sun Ce in the past.

Today's Xu Sheng focuses on "stability".

It was because of the river wind on the boat and the unhealed bones in his body that Xu Sheng contracted the wind and cold and had been coughing since early in the morning.

Speaking of which, this kind of wind and cold comes and goes quickly, but the problem is... this is on a boat, the river breeze is constant, keeping warm, warm water, and medicinal materials are all difficult, so... for a while, this cough will not stop. live.

"General...according to the current sailing speed, it will take another two days to reach Ruxukou..."

The deputy general was reporting something to Xu Sheng.

Xu Sheng squinted his eyes, as if he had been thinking about the march route and the strategy to defeat the enemy all day and night. At this moment, he was slightly distracted, and his thoughts seemed to have traveled to twenty years ago.

Xu Sheng was originally from Langyeju, Xuzhou. He was forced to flee and migrate to Jiangdong because of Cao Cao's massacre in Pengcheng, Xuzhou.

Xu Sheng was not a member of a well-known family. He had only possessed brute strength since he was a child. He was once recognized as the most capable and reckless person in the village.

He has a wife and his parents are still alive, and they all migrated with him...

Whenever spring arrives, his parents take his wife to work in the fields...

In the field, a girl with fair skin and a slight sallow color was digging the ground alone with a wooden tool. In many cases, it became the most beautiful scenery in Jiangdong.

Under the scorching sun, his wife would use the old gray sleeves on her arms to wipe the sweat on her brows. She would rest for a quarter of an hour at most, then continue waving wooden tools with her thin, thin hands.

The reason for this is because the backbone of the family, Xu Sheng... gave up farm work and resolutely joined the army.

That was when Sun Ce came here to recruit. Sun Ce mentioned:

"——In these troubled times... there is no prominent lintel, no recommendation from high-ranking officials. If you want to get ahead, there is only one way, which is to make achievements on the battlefield, and then make a wife and shadow son to shine on the lintel. 』

Xu Sheng will never forget Sun Ce's other words:

——"Who has a prominent family name?" But if not, will we give up? Instead of feeling sorry for ourselves, why not...let us be this prominent lintel ourselves to benefit future generations! 』

Such inspiring words undoubtedly... deeply inspired Xu Sheng, who was living at the bottom...

He resolutely surrendered to the army.

At first, he was just a pawn, training martial arts every day and constantly cooperating with other recruits to run into formations...

He understands that in the army, there is a captain for each corps of five men, and a commander for every ten men;

Further up, there are the garrison commanders who command fifty people, the military princes who command one band of five hundred people, and the army commanders who command two bands;

Further up there are captains, generals, lieutenants, and generals——

Sun Jian, the father of Xu Sheng's lord Sun Ce... rose from a pawn to a general;

Bai Qi, whom Xu Sheng admired the most, also rose from a small soldier to a great soldier!

They can do it... so can Xu Sheng!

With this purpose in mind, Xu Sheng was a hundred or a thousand times more serious every time he trained, especially those skills of killing enemies. After one month, even the old people in the military camp felt their scalps go numb.

Without him, Xu Sheng always learned the fatal killing method with one sword. Although this killing method was powerful, it had a fatal weakness, that is, he never cared whether the opponent's knife would fall on him.

Ever since, as long as the new recruits were training, as long as they faced Xu Sheng, almost... in one breath, one round, the opponent would lie on the ground and never get up again.

Gradually, the new recruits were unwilling to fight against Xu Sheng, and the veterans began to fail, but in the end...the veterans discovered that Xu Sheng was not as they imagined...because they corrected themselves after suffering losses, but instead used the knife to kill...more and more... The more skilled you are.

Another month, even veterans dare not confront Xu Sheng...

Gradually, Xu Sheng got a nickname - one sword kills Sheng!

It is easy to understand that no one can withstand the blow of his sword;

But Sheng must die, he is not so polite. It means that on the battlefield, Xu Sheng's style of fighting will definitely lead to death!

Soon, the epithet "One sword will kill you" reached Sun Ce's ears. Sun Ce went directly to Xu Sheng and reprimanded him - "This style of fighting must be corrected!" 』

After fighting for so many years, Sun Ce has never seen anyone so desperate.

Xu Sheng did not refute Sun Ce. He knew that Sun Ce cared about him, but he... couldn't control that much.

Because he had also tried to change to other playing methods, but often that way... would make him feel very constrained... So he changed back to the "one-sword-swinging" style of play, which was always detrimental -

"Correct this style of play, this is a military order!" 』

Sun Ce scolded Xu Sheng for the fourth time in three days...

Sun Ce loves his soldiers as much as his sons. He wants every brother to live, at least to have hope of survival on the battlefield, instead of exchanging lives with the enemy...

The fate of the son of the Sun family? Not that worthless——

However, Xu Sheng didn't care so much, "Isn't it enough to just kill the enemy?"

He was not convinced——

Soon, Xu Sheng ushered in his first battlefield!

Xu Shengyou remembered that before the battle, Sun Ce specially rode to his side and said earnestly, "You kid, remember what I said, don't use the same fighting style you used to do -"

Who would have thought…

It was because of these words, and because of Sun Ce, that Xu Sheng was able to survive on that cruel battlefield!

The past is vivid in my mind.

It seems that when this memory was recalled here, it was interrupted by some sound from the outside world, and Xu Sheng's wandering mind was withdrawn.

The lieutenant saw him open his eyes and quickly repeated the question, "General...according to the current sailing speed, it will take another two days to reach Ruxukou...Isn't it too slow..."

"It's better to go slower..." Xu Sheng finally said, "Slower will be more stable, and it will be easier to confuse the enemy..."

ah…

Amidst the great doubts of the lieutenant general.

Xu Sheng handed a letter he had already written to the deputy general, "This contains the water route map I designed, as well as the plan for the final attack on the Liao Navy. You will immediately send a speedboat to Ruxukou and hand it over to Ruxukou." The guard there Zhou Xun asked him to follow the route and agreement above to flank Zhang Liao. This battle... I have repeatedly considered it, and if everything goes according to plan, I am sure that I can completely annihilate Zhang Wenyuan's navy!"

this…

For a moment, the deputy general felt stunned. Who would have thought that General Xu Shengda, who had not left the cabin all day and night, would suddenly hand him such an important letter.

He also threatened...to annihilate Zhang Wenyuan's navy. This...

Having said that, how did this deputy general know that Xu Sheng... had transformed from a reckless man, from a "several sword, death" to the current general with both civil and military skills? He is no longer what he used to be...

Because of Sun Ce, his mind and courage grew and expanded infinitely.

With his familiarity with this area, he formulated a perfect flanking strategy, one of which was important. With his current sailing speed, Zhang Liao would never believe that he could reach Ruxukou before tonight, and then Attacked from both inside and outside, they launched a fierce attack on Zhang Liao's fleet...

This is a surefire way to win!

Even after giving the instructions, Xu Sheng was still a little worried. He solemnly gave the instructions again:

"This letter is of great importance. If you go there in person, you must hand it into Zhou Xun's hands——"

"Here, here -"

…

…

In Xiangyang City, the carriage was ready, and Guan Lin originally wanted to take the carriage to Xuchang.

As for...my mother, Mrs. Hu, called in Jiangling City to complete the first stage of the "human creation plan" - verification!

As for Guan Lin, he will not go back...

He is a rebellious son. He will create humans as I ask him to be created... so he is a rebellious caterpillar?

If you are so obedient, then the name of "rebellious son"...should be changed directly to "good baby"!

Therefore, Guan Lin ignored the two maids who filled the house...

Women will only affect the speed and speed with which Guan Lin draws his sword——

But...

An accident happened. Just when Guan Lin had boarded the carriage going north, news came from the Beggar Clan.

Two…

The first one is that the assassin who assassinated Guan Lin in Xiakou, Jiangxia in the past left clues. Following these clues, the Beggar Gang investigated for a long time, and finally... everyone's information pointed to one place, a brothel and a brothel!

The managers of this brothel and red house are two young women, one is named Wu Daru, the other is named Wu Xiaoru...

Of course, if this is the case, it would be simple... Guan Lin directly sent people to search the brothel and red house, and then followed the method of interrogating the female spy Li Jingxiao of Soochow Jiefanying Camp... water torture, jealousy torture, neither would work. , even if you use a Trojan horse... In short, Wu Daru and Wu Xiaoru will definitely be able to trick everything.

But...

Wu Daru and Wu Xiaoru suddenly bribed their connections and applied to become Guan Lin's house-filling maids in the Guan Mansion...

This means a lot...

Through the connections established by Wu Daru and Wu Xiaoru, the Beggar Clan continued to investigate, and then...a stark truth emerged before their eyes.

What Wu Daru, Wu Xiaoru... this is obviously Sun Dahu, Sun Xiaohu...

At this moment, when "You Tanzhi", the elder of the Beggar Clan, told this piece of information to Guan Lin.

Guan Lin's eyes suddenly narrowed...

He opened his mouth subconsciously: "Big tiger? Small tiger? Are these two tigers really?"

"A lot of evidence can support each other, it's absolutely true..."

With You Tanzhi's confident answer, Guan Lin finally understood...completely understood.

Daqing was the one who wanted to kill him at first, but now it's the two tigers who want to sleep with him...

"hehe…"

Thinking of this, Guan Lin smiled...

Originally, I didn't plan to go back to Jiangling, but it seems...it is necessary to go back this time to deal with the matter of these two tigers.

certainly…

In fact, these two tigers gave Guan Lin a whole new way of thinking.

Sun Deng, the eldest son of Soochow, was in the hands of Guan Lin;

Sun Quan's two most beloved daughters are also in Guan Lin's hands;

Even the honest man Lu Zijing took root in Guan Lin's hands...

Like this, like this, does it mean that there is a lot of room for maneuver, and it is not possible to protect everything... We can seize Lujiang, Jianye City, Wu County... and even the entire Soochow without any wastage!

…

…
