Cao Wuyin decided on the strategy. Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun looked at each other and could see each other's shock.
They thought this was just a casual talk. Since the turmoil in the world, the trend of casual talks has become increasingly popular. Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun have both participated. It is nothing more than discussing the general trend of the world and then expressing some opinions. In the end, they hate themselves for being so talented and unable to put it to use. , I hate that the situation in the world is corrupt, and everyone is drinking or taking powder, and they are consciously unruly.
However, Cao Wu didn't seem to think so. Judging from his appearance, he really wanted to do this.
Cao Wu, a low-ranking general, was always thinking about stirring up trouble in the world.
"The Prime Minister's place..."
Lu Xun asked tentatively.
"I am confident that we will only use the troops left behind in the south."
Lu Xun was overjoyed and couldn't hide his excitement. If given the opportunity, he would of course want to make achievements in the army instead of plotting secretly.
Cao Wu didn't say much, because this strategy was indeed the best choice for the situation now, and taking action against Jiaozhou.
Before the Battle of Chibi, Cao Wu once advocated taking Hanzhong and Yizhou first and then marching eastward to Jingzhou. But now, with Jingzhou in hand, there is no need to capture Yizhou first. Liu Zhang of Yizhou was weak, so he only needed to guard against Yizhou troops from Jiangling heading east.
The biggest enemy is Jiangdong Sun Quan.
However, the army has not yet received enough rest and food has not yet been harvested. It will take at least several months to organize such a large-scale army.
During this time gap, the professional soldiers staying in the south are mobilized to capture Jiaozhou. If Jiaozhou is determined, the map will become a clenched fist, completely surrounding Jiangdong. At that time, we can start from Hefei, Jiangxia, Jingnan, Jiaozhou used force at the same time to crush Jiangdong.
The few people discussed for a while and decided on the basic strategy. Diao Chan listened and finally said: "I want to go too."
"The soil and water in the south are different from this. What are you going to do?"
Cao Wu didn't want her to take risks on the front line again.
Diao Chan said, "I'm going so that the information can be timely."
Cao Wu rubbed his forehead, knowing that the other party was also difficult to persuade, so he had to take a step back and said: "Then let Ah San protect you at all times."
Diao Chan was overjoyed and went out to find Ah San.
After she left, Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun coughed lightly at the same time.
Cao Wu raised his eyebrows in confusion. Zhuge Liang and Cao Wu were closer. He hesitated for a moment and then said: "My lord, the outcome of the previous competition has not yet been determined."
Cao Wu then remembered that against Sima Yi, Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun each came up with a strategy to compete with each other. Now that Sima Yi is dead, it is indeed time to decide the winner.
Both Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun were considered mature and prudent, but after all, they were not yet thirty years old. Young people always wanted to compare. Cao Wu saw this as a good thing. Zhuge Liang regarded himself as his staff. Although Lu Xun was a prisoner of war, But after staying in Beifu for a long time, can he still go back to Jiangdong? I'm afraid it won't be possible in the future.
The two military advisors were arguing. The referee was Cao Wu. Cao Wu did not delay and said: "Although Sima Yi committed suicide, it was Boyan who forced his father to rebel and left him with no way out. Kong Ming designed to imprison him and let him go." He was frustrated at every step, so he achieved such results. To put it bluntly, the two of you have equal credit."
Cao Wu's verdict that the bowl of water was flat was obviously guessed by both of them.
Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly: "This time it was Boyan who was mainly responsible. Everything the Xiliang Ma family did to quell the rumors of the three horses was the main reason for killing Sima Hanoi."
Lu Xun shook his head: "Three horses eating Cao Yi said that it was my lord who taught me. Speaking of which, this method of walking in secret and leaving messages is actually something I learned from my lord."
When things came to a close, the two of them became humble.
Cao Wu smiled and said: "Don't worry, the winner is not decided this time. We will go south to Jiaozhou and decide the winner again."
"Thank you, Lord!"
The two of them bowed together. They were obviously going out to work, but they were both very excited.
Zhuge Liang was unwilling to fight against Liu Bei, but Cao Wu gave Jiaozhou a bigger stage. Zhuge Liang thought that he could do some things when he went south, and was already thinking about ways to capture Jiaozhou.
Lu Xun heard that the Jiaozhou Shi family was so great and wanted to see if he could find a way to settle the Lu family.
So far, only a few core people in Cao Ying knew about the news of Lu Xun being captured. The Lu family in Jiangdong was still supported by Lu Ji, so they would not be affected.
Lu Xun missed his beloved wife Sun and wanted to see her again, but in order to protect the Lu family, he could not go to see her.
Cao Wu had promised that he would bring Lu Xun's wife, but he had to have the perfect opportunity, so he hadn't taken action yet.
The two were about to leave. Zhuge Liang slapped his forehead and turned around and said, "Master, there is one more thing."
"What?"
"As for Sima Yi's body, Miss Asan saw it with her own eyes. I don't doubt Miss Asan's eyesight. I'm just thinking about why Sima Fu was so cruel in the end and murdered his own brother?"
Cao Wu was silent for a while and sighed: "Maybe his family has the gene of brotherly fratricide."
"What are genes?"
"Well, it's blood."
Zhuge Liang nodded and had a new understanding of Diao Chan's comment that Cao Wu would always say some incomprehensible things.
Lu Xun said: "Sima Fu knows that the only thing the master cares about is Sima Yi. If he kills Sima Yi, he can escape smoothly. This can also guess his motives. But after he killed Sima Yi, why did he stab him with so many swords?"
Cao Zhen, who cooperated with Cao Wu and his men in the search that day, and guard Ma Teng personally confirmed that it was Sima Yi who died.
However, Sima Yi's body was very miserable, with both arms broken and multiple sword wounds on his chest and abdomen, but his face was intact. Ah San had met him face to face and would not admit his mistake.
Cao Wu couldn't figure it out after stabbing him with so many swords, but this puzzle could no longer be solved with Sima Fu's escape.
Cao Wu didn't want to solve it. The more threatening person to Sima Hanoi was probably the old guy Sima Fang. His three thousand Qiang soldiers escaped from Bingzhou and returned to Qiang land.
As for Sima Fu, he also sent people to chase him, but he couldn't make a huge trap like surrounding and killing Sima Yi.
In short, the destruction of Hanoi Sima was a wake-up call to the family.
When the war in the south was at a stalemate, even the children of aristocratic families like Xun Yu had murderous intentions towards these aristocratic families.
Cao Wu made that list, and many direct descendants of the aristocratic families were convicted, so they stopped.
However, compared to the impeachment, what happened to Sima in Hanoi shocked them more.
When the world is not at peace, the aristocratic family can take the opportunity to raise conditions. If the world is at peace, the professional soldiers will easily defeat the local brave army they are proud of.
Their roots are intertwined and their tails are too big to fall off. But from now on they can only serve as officials in the court, but they can no longer raise an army privately.
In this regard, he coincides with Cao Cao of Sima of the Yi tribe.
Just as he was thinking about it, Deng Ai suddenly came in from outside. He came bounding over and looked very anxious.
"General...jun, prime minister...the prime minister is here!"
"What?"
Cao Wu didn't even think of it himself.
Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived.
