"Newfield?"
When Guan Yu heard this, he immediately understood what Liu Chan meant.
"As far as I know, the Xinye defenders only number four to five thousand. If our army comes to cover them up, the city will be destroyed. There is no need to worry!"
Liu Chan was not so optimistic.
"The city of Xinye is strong. My father lived here for several years in the past. The city is strong and thick. Don't you know, uncle? Although there are four to five thousand people, if there are generals who are good at defending it, it will be difficult to leave Xinye."
Guan Yu lifted up his beautiful beard, but Zao's face was frowned. It was obvious that he did not agree with Liu Chan's opinion.
"Xinye City is strong? Is it stronger than Wancheng? Wancheng can be captured within ten days, let alone Xinye? I think our army can capture Xinye in three days at most!"
Liu Chan looked at Guan Yu and sighed in his heart. He understood that these consecutive victories, especially such easy victories, had already made Guan Yu feel arrogant.
Do you really think that Wei Jun is a local chicken and a tile dog?
If Guan Yu loses Jingzhou, his arrogant soldiers will be defeated. This afterthought is still fresh in the memory of Liu Chan's later generations.
As long as Liu Chan is here, the past will never happen again!
Besides...
The place where Guan Yu captured will also belong to Liu Chan in the future.
If you see a danger but don't deal with it, how can you be a master?
Liu Chan looked stern, and he was not used to his cheap father-in-law.
"Uncle, did you know that arrogant soldiers will be defeated? We defeated Cao Ren in the previous campaign and went down to Xiangyang, flooding seven armies. However, my father-in-law felt that the Wei army was like a chicken and a dog? It was vulnerable? However, the seven armies of the Wei state were defeated by us. Yes? No, it was the right time and the right place! We were defeated by the flood, not by my uncle. If my uncle underestimated the Wei army, our army would be defeated not far away!"
If anyone else had said such words, he, Guan Yunchang, would have been furious. If it had been Guan Ping, he would have been hit hard on the butt, and if it had been Zhou Cang, he would have kicked him until he called his mother.
But this is Your Highness.
I will endure.
Phew~
Guan Yunchang took a deep breath and tried to make his tone as smooth as possible.
"Your Highness's words, aren't they hurting the morale of our army and boosting the morale of the Wei army?"
He snorted softly. If Guan Yinping hadn't been staring at him behind Liu Chan, he could have snorted louder just now.
"Even if Xinye is a strong city, as long as the soldiers use their lives, if nothing else works, let Ping'er send troops in Wancheng to cut off Xinye's retreat. How can Xinye be invincible under attack from two sides?"
Liu Chan shook his head.
"What General Xiaoguan has to do now is to stabilize Wancheng and reorganize the surrendered troops to prevent chaos."
There are more than 13,000 Jingzhou soldiers, but there are more than 6,000 surrendered troops. If Liu Chan is here, he will definitely disrupt the organization, select the best and strongest, recruit them into the army, streamline the soldiers, and then directly start brainwashing... Oh no , reformatory education.
A set of combined punches will bring down the troops and can be used by me.
only...
After all, Guan Ping doesn't have his skills. If he trusts the general too much and sends troops to attack, I'm afraid Wancheng will be thrown back again before it has a firm foothold.
"Besides, there are also Wei troops surrounding Rang County. Although Wancheng has fallen, there are at least more than 10,000 Wei troops in Nanyang. Although these more than 10,000 Wei troops cannot cause any substantial harm to our army, they can still It’s okay to delay and give Cao Mengde time to gather his troops.”
After listening to Liu Chan's words, Guan Yu fell into rare silence.
"Then according to what His Highness said, what should we do?"
"Of course we are attacking Xinye, but my uncle should set an example. Arrogance is prevalent in the army, which is not a good thing. Repair the armor and build siege equipment. If the Xinye City defender can persuade you to surrender, then it is best to persuade them to surrender."
Guan Yu took a deep look at Liu Chan and nodded slightly.
"Just follow what His Highness said."
only...
Guan Yu was still a little disapproving.
As a general, how can this be accomplished without arrogance?
This majestic army that has been victorious in every battle has no arrogance. Are these still the soldiers brought out by Guan Yunchang?
"Does Your Highness have any suggestions for specific arrangements?"
"My son-in-law is just a suggestion on matters related to the military. Naturally, my uncle will make the most appropriate arrangements for the matters involved."
Guan Yu glanced at Liu Chan angrily. He told Liu Chan about the arrangements in the army. At that time, Guan Yunchang would give up the position of coach to Liu Chan and go home to raise his grandson.
Fortunately, His Highness is quite eye-catching.
"In that case, Zhou Cang, you lead your troops to attack Xinye. Remember to be cautious and don't let arrogance arise in your heart. Is it possible to capture it within three days?"
Do you want to be prudent and go to the city within three days?
The King of Forces really holds a grudge!
Liu Chan shook his head gently. This cheap father-in-law sometimes has a childish temper, leaving Liu Chan speechless.
"Don't worry, sir, I will go to the new field within three days. If it fails, I will deal with it according to military law!"
"good!"
Guan Yu laughed loudly and glanced at Liu Chan as if by accident.
"This is my general, Guan Yunchang. With such a loyal and brave man, why should we fear that the fortified city of Xinye will not be broken?"
Guan Yu ordered again.
"Liao Hua obeys the order."
"The end will be here."
"Lead your troops and set up camp on the only road between Rang County and Wancheng. If there is help from Rang County, hold him tightly. If you let one person go to Xinye, I will take you for granted!"
"The last general takes command!"
Liao Hua, who was wearing armor, stood up and accepted the order.
"As for Yancheng, Xiang Chong will take over the defense, and the four tombs will be replaced by Mi Yang. There will be twelve stockades in front and behind. There is no room for loss!"
Liu Chan's prince's personal army is now the defender of the city in the rear.
Guan Yu's men are basically all in Nanyang.
"The last general takes command!"
Xiang Chong and Mi Yang both stepped forward to take orders.
"Your Highness, is my arrangement okay?"
It’s not over, right?
Liu Chan gave a wry smile and said, "My father-in-law arranged everything perfectly, and my son-in-law admires it."
Liu Chan finally understood that Guan Yunchang belonged to Brother Pingtou, and if he offended him, he would definitely come back with revenge.
If I don't straighten his hair, I'm afraid I'll choke him while eating.
"That's pretty much it."
After receiving the order, all the soldiers dispersed. Guan Yu also stood up. He looked at Liu Chan with a smile on his face and said with a smile: "Young people should be restrained and must not indulge in sexual intercourse. And..."
Guan Yu stared at Guan Yinping's belly.
"Feng'er will live a good life and cultivate himself in the future. Give me a good grandson. Being a father will give me many rewards!"
Last night, Guan Yu wanted to go to Liu Chan for a night of drinking and chatting, but when he walked to the tent and heard the noise inside, his expression at that time was so exciting.
Guan Yunchang didn't understand the world of young people.
It’s out of date!
Still, it’s not bad!
It can be seen that His Highness' love for my Feng'er comes from the heart.
Guan Yinping's cheeks were slightly red. He rolled his eyes at his old father, buried his head deeply in his chest, and pretended to be an ostrich.
"Father, how can you say this!"
"Hahaha!"
Guan Yu put his hands on his hands and laughed, saying: "Don't worry, I, Yunchang, will conquer this country for you!"
Not only for his eldest brother, but also for his little grandson!
He, Guan Yunchang, has this old bone to fight for!
...
Hekou Sichuan Military Village.
There was a large tent that was heavily guarded outside, with soldiers and generals coming and going. Without military orders, they would not be able to enter.
This big tent is naturally a temporary prison.
There were very few people imprisoned, only two people.
Cao Ren and Pound.
At this moment, two people are in the tent, one person and one wooden prison car.
"Why!"
Cao Zi looked depressed, his eyes full of pain.
"I didn't expect that I, Cao Ren, would end up like this in my wise life. Now, I really can't live but die."
His hands were tied, and he was sitting slumped in the prison car. His despair and pain could be clearly felt by Pang De, who was not far away.
"Now that you've come, you'll be safe. How can you sum it up in one sentence, whether it's a blessing or a curse? Although the general is in danger and has become Liu Gongsi's prisoner, it won't be a shame if the King of Wei rescues you."
Pang De was holding the book Liu Chan gave him in his hand, and he was flipping through it with relish at the moment. Although he had disheveled hair and looked sloppy, his eyes were bright and bright.
He came a few days before Cao Ren, and after reading the book Liu Chan gave him, his mental state improved a lot.
The book has its own golden house, and the book has its own beauty like jade.
The ancients never deceived me.
"How can a defeated general not die on the battlefield but still want to be rescued by the lord? Shame, shame! Even if I survive, how can I meet the king? How can I command the dignity of the generals?"
Pang De laughed and said: "King Goujian of Yue is the king of a country. He can still endure hardships and serve the enemy's lord like a slave. How can a general be compared to King Goujian of Yue? Emperor Gaozu was defeated in every defeat and was not discouraged, so he abandoned his wife. We still have to contend with the overlord of Western Chu. Doesn’t the general not know?
Now that he is in prison, he is just a prisoner of the crown prince of Hanzhong. How many injustices have he suffered, and he is just talking about life and death? "
When Pang De said this, Cao Ren's face turned slightly red and he looked ashamed.
"Now that I hear Ling Ming's words, I feel ashamed."
Such cowardly behavior is not what a hero would do.
"Not bad."
Suddenly a clear voice came from outside the tent.
“If there is a will, things will come true. If the cauldron sinks the boat, a hundred and two Qin passes will eventually belong to Chu;
If you work hard, God will not let you down. If you lie on the firewood and taste the courage, three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu. "
What a poem, what a sentence!
After hearing this, Cao Ren's eyes brightened and he felt a sense of enlightenment.
good!
He, Cao Ren, is in adversity now, so what does it matter?
As long as I endure today, the final victory will definitely belong to me, Cao Zixiao, and today's humiliation will definitely be washed away!
but...
Why does this voice sound familiar?
Cao Ren looked into the tent, his face suddenly darkened.
Unexpectedly, the words just now came out of this kid's mouth.
Can ivory come out of a dog's mouth?
"snort!"
Cao Ren snorted coldly and turned his head to the side.
"A general must remain useful. King Wei's men will not be able to survive without you as a general."
Liu Chan walked forward. His eyes only stayed on Cao Ren for a moment. His main focus was still on Pang De.
After all, Cao Ren is Cao Cao's confidant and confidant, and there is no possibility of surrender. Although Pang De is like a stone in a pit, smelly and hard, there is still a slight possibility that he will be used by him.
Besides...
Several of the books he gave to Pound were already torn in his hands.
If so...
Pang Lingming, have you changed your mind?
Liu Chan looked at Pang De expectantly and said, "It's been a few days, has Ling Ming figured it out?"
Got it?
Pang De looked up from the book. He did not answer Liu Chan's question directly. Instead, he asked: "How did your Highness get the information in the "World Map"? Is there really such a vast area outside of Kyushu?" territory?"
really!
The yearning for the new world is something that everyone can have, let alone Pound, a fierce general who is used to conquering in this era.
"The news came from the Western Region and from the sea. The land of Kyushu has tens of millions of people. However, in other places, the number of people is no less than that of Kyushu, and the land is even less. Spanning thousands of miles of sea, there are people named America. Its land is fertile, with endless plains as far as the eye can see. If it can be our land of China, it can support tens of millions more people."
America?
Pang De's eyes lit up, and even Cao Ren, who was deliberately ignoring Liu Chan, was attracted to him at this moment.
"Should this place exist in the world?"
Thousands of miles?
Can a person travel thousands of miles in his lifetime?
Seeing the yearning expression on Pang De's face, Liu Chan smiled softly and said, "Whether there is such a place or not will be clear in the future when the general arrives in person."
Liu Chan looked deeply at Pang De, his eyes very solemn.
"How about it? Would you like to be my general?"
To become your general under Liu Gongsi?
Cao Ren reacted and immediately glared.
"Pang Lingming, you must not become a surrendered general. Do you still remember what you said in front of the king?"
Then, he stared at Liu Chan fiercely and said: "If you want to persuade me, General Wei, to surrender in front of me, Cao Zixiao, you are dreaming!"
Liu Chan pretended not to hear Cao Ren's roar, just as if there was a noisy big yellow dog next to him, barking.
Pang De felt Liu Chan's burning gaze, and he was naturally well aware of the Hanzhong Crown Prince's desire to recruit talents.
but...
Can I really become a general under Liu Chan, the crown prince of Hanzhong?
He was originally a reduced general, but he has already served as a second master?
Is it possible to change the protagonist again?
A bitter smile appeared on Pang De's face, and he said: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. It's just that Your Highness's ambitions are lofty, far above the nine heavens, but I, Pound, am like dust and grass, still under the abyss. I really don't deserve to be so valued by Your Highness." .”
"With your loyalty, how can you call it dust?"
Loyalty?
The wry smile on Pang De's face became even heavier.
"If Your Highness had pity on my loyalty, you should have killed me on the battlefield. If I surrendered to you, I would have really betrayed the Lord. How can I be loyal?"
"well said!"
If his hands hadn't been tied, Cao Ren would have applauded.
"As a general, we are loyal and righteous! We must not forget loyalty and righteousness just to survive!"
What about the word loyalty?
Have you forgotten who you sold it to?
Liu Chan glanced at Cao Ren coldly, holding his chin with his right hand.
Letting Cao Ren and Pang De stay together did not work well.
"Cao Zixiao, I respect you as a good man, and I just spared your life. I didn't expect you to be not only ungrateful, but also resentful of me. Are you really feeding an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf, how dare you talk about loyalty?"
"Kill me, Cao Zixiao, if you are brave enough!"
Although what Pound just said makes sense.
But how can Cao Zixiao compare with Gou Jian and Gaozu?
He wants to live happily and with dignity.
Now that he has become the prisoner of Liu Gongsi, Cao Zixiao is really worse off than dead!
Damn it!
"Hahaha!"
Liu Chan smiled softly and said, "It's not that easy if you want to die."
Liu Chan told the guards beside him: "Send Pang Lingming to Xiangyang, prepare a good guest room for him, and send him two beauties and ten servants to serve him well."
"promise!"
Pang De heard this and waved his hand quickly.
"How can a defeated general do this? Your Highness, please don't humiliate me."
Liu Chan shook his head and said, "When you figure it out, I won't humiliate you anymore."
Served by Mei Ji’s servant, you know my thoughts, Liu Chan, right?
Do you want to learn from Cao Mengde?
This venison is extremely delicious. Can you give it to Lingming?
When I see a good horse, I immediately send an order: Send it to Lingming!
When he saw a beautiful woman, he said directly: Send it to Ling Ming!
...
If this is the case, it is not impossible to win Pound's heart.
After his guards sent Pang De away in the prison car, Liu Chan looked at Cao Ren with a half-smile.
"You asked for death, but I refused to give it. I want to see how you, a famous general of your generation, can humiliate you."
Seeing Liu Chan's gloomy expression, Cao Ren was shocked, and his buttocks felt even colder.
Could it be that this Mr. Liu...
Could it be...
Seeing the shocked and hesitant expression on Cao Ren's face, Liu Chan was very satisfied. He laughed and said, "Let's eat and drink after today. Someone will bring us food and drink, but you can handle this yourself!"
Originally, there were brave villagers who changed the toilet bowl for Cao Ren every day. You are very arrogant, aren't you?
Then take a good smell of your own filth.
In the height of summer, the taste is absolutely wonderful.
Cao Ren's face turned pale, but his mouth was still tough.
"If you have any punishment schemes, just come and do it! I, Cao Zixiao, call out and write my last name backwards!"
"Tough enough, I like it!"
Liu Chan walked out of the camp with a smile. He didn't expect Cao Zixiao to be loyal anyway, he just wanted to exchange some things in front of Cao Cao.
As long as no one dies.
As for who needs to be replaced.
Liu Chan had actually already thought about it.
First!
It was Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi.
Back then, Xu Shu had to leave his uncle and return to Cao's camp because Cao Cao threatened his mother's life. He was unable to develop his talents.
What a pity?
And under his command, Liu Chan, there is still a shortage of counselors, and there must be no shortage of talents.
This second one is naturally the family of his general.
I believe that with Cao Mengde's regard for Cao Ren, it should not be a problem to exchange for these people.
...
Three days later.
Koto.
Jianye.
Sun Quan couldn't hide the shock on his face when he looked at Lu Meng in front of him.
Even though Sun Quan, as the lord, wanted to remain calm even when Mount Tai collapsed, when he heard about Guan Yu flooding seven armies in Fancheng, the expression on his face immediately became unbearable!
"Say it again? Guan Yunchang and Liu Chan's son flooded seven armies in Fancheng? Cao's seven armies were wiped out, and even Cao Zixiao was captured alive?"
After listening to Lu Meng's report, Sun Quan was particularly disbelieving in his eyes.
"My Lord, in the past month, there have been heavy rains in Fancheng and the water level of the Han River has risen. Guan Yunchang blocked the entrance of the Han River weir and destroyed the embankment for a water attack. Cao's army was stationed in a low-lying area. Jingzhou's soldiers succeeded in the water attack. The seven armies of Wei State, It has become food for fish and turtles in the Han River, and Cao Ren, the great general of Wei, was captured on the spot by Liu Chan, the crown prince of Hanzhong!"
"This is happening!"
Sun Quan lay back and fell on the main seat. He stared at the ceiling of the study with a dull expression.
"Could it be that Liu Xuande's destiny really belongs to him?"
Victory in the Battle of Hanzhong.
His attempt to seize Jiangling was thwarted by Liu Chan's son, and he even wanted to sign a humiliating alliance like a city alliance.
In the Battle of Xiangyang, Guan Yunchang defeated Cao Ren and captured the important town of Xiangyang within ten days.
Now in Fancheng, the seven armies were flooded and the Wei state was severely damaged.
The news didn't spread fast enough. If Jiangdong knew that Guan Ping had broken Wancheng, Sun Quan would probably want to die now.
"My lord, the fire is cooking the oil. Guan Yunchang and Liu Gongsi may seem to be in good health, but their defeat may be imminent soon."
In the end, Lü Meng stayed in Jiangling as a negotiator, engaging in verbal disputes with Pang Tong and others.
Although the result is not very good, every effort always makes my heart feel better.
certainly...
I don’t know why, but during those days in Jiangling, Zhuge Ziyu and Yu Fan looked at him, as if they were blaming him.
Fortunately, the accusing look did not last long.
After receiving the news that Guan Yunchang flooded the Seventh Army in Fancheng, Lu Meng already knew that he could no longer stay in Jiangling.
So he immediately took a boat down the river and drove directly to Jianye.
When they said goodbye that day, Zhuge Ziyu and Yu Fan were so excited that they thought Lu Meng was the god of plague!
Sun Quan sighed and asked again: "You said that the water attack strategy was contributed by Liu Chan's son?"
"Yes, according to the report from the Shu Army, it is indeed the case."
"Hey~"
Sun Quan sighed deeply.
So how come Liu Bei was so lucky to give birth to such a unicorn child?
I, Sun Zhongmou, can’t be born?
"It's a pity that Mr. Liu is not my son Zhongmou! Otherwise, how could we in Jiangdong be defeated like this!"
It's a pity that Mr. Liu is not my son, Sun Zhongmou!
but...
If you marry Xiaohu, can you count him as half a son?
But he quickly shook his head.
What kind of son is an in-law?
It is estimated that he, a good son-in-law, will use a knife to cut off the head of his good father-in-law in the future.
Hey~
Sun Quan is feeling miserable!
"Don't worry, my lord, Yun Chang's victory may not be a good thing. Although the seven armies of Wei State were wiped out, Wei State did suffer heavy losses, but it was definitely not to the extent of breaking bones. On the contrary, because of this defeat, King Cao Cao of Wei was furious. He will be furious. At that time, he will mobilize the entire country's troops to go to Nanyang to fight Guan Yunchang. What Liu Gongsi said is true. King Wei will definitely transfer some of Xuzhou's troops. Now, we are the ones attacking Hefei. , a great opportunity to seize Xuzhou!"
Seeking Xuzhou?
Sun Quan's spirit improved a lot.
He sat upright from the main seat and his eyes became alert again.
"Planning for Xuzhou, does the Governor have any plans?"
Lu Meng shook his head slightly and said: "There is no strategy, just use brute force to attack with all your strength. Xuzhou has insufficient troops, and once Cao Mengde goes to war with Jingzhou, he will have no other choice. Xuzhou will definitely fall into my hands in Jiangdong!"
To defend the river, you must defend the Huai River.
Only by capturing Xuzhou can the land east of the Yangtze River be more stable.
otherwise...
Isn't Jianye facing the enemy directly?
So how can he have any depth in Jiangdong?
"The soldiers' food and fodder have been prepared. In ten days, we will begin to attack Hefei. I will personally lead the troops in this battle, and I will definitely avenge that day!"
They were attacked by Zhang Liao's 800 elite soldiers, so that all his 100,000 troops were wiped out!
How could he, Sun Zhongmou, swallow this kind of hatred?
It’s not that you don’t report that the time has not come yet.
And now, it's time for revenge!
Lu Meng also nodded.
"This move is a God-given opportunity. If the Lord takes action, Hefei will definitely fall, and Xuzhou will definitely fall into my Jiangdong hands!"
Sun Quan nodded lightly.
"Just do it like this."
"promise."
Lu Meng took the order.
If Xuzhou can be captured, although Jiangdong will be defeated by Liu Gongsi, it will not be without gains.
After harvesting the land of Xuzhou, Sun Quan will also have the opportunity to dominate the world!
Sun Quan stood up and was about to go to the backyard to clear his muscles and bones, but found Lu Meng still standing in the study.
"Grand Governor, is there anything else?"
Lu Meng nodded lightly, raised his hands in salute, and said: "Actually, there is a more secure way to capture Hefei and attack Xuzhou. For me, Jiangdong, it is more in line with the interests of the lord than to directly attack Hefei."
"oh?"
Sun Quan's eyes brightened slightly.
"Come quickly."
When I asked you if you had any better strategies, you didn't say anything. Why now that you have decided on a strategy, are you offering suggestions?
Lu Meng clearly saw Sun Quan's intention, and he said: "The reason why the general did not mention this plan just now is because it is too sinister. We just signed an alliance with Liu Gongsi, and we have to break the alliance. This is true." It’s inappropriate.”
Breaking an alliance?
When you say this, I, Sun Zhongmou, am no longer sleepy!
"What kind of breach of alliance?"
Looking at Sun Quan's burning eyes, Lu Meng immediately said: "Now the world is divided into three parts. Liu Bei controls the land of Yizhou and Jingzhou. Now, Guan Yunchang and Liu Gongsi are in Jingzhou, and they have the potential to swallow up the world. If we attack Wei , then Mengde will inevitably fall into a pincer attack, and he will be unable to do anything at all. Maybe Mengde is really no match for Guan Yunchang and Liu Gongsi. If Cao Cao is defeated, how should we, Jiangdong, deal with ourselves?"
There are three parties standing together, but Jiangdong is not the strongest party. Now he can be said to be the weakest party.
When the boss fights with the second child, it's best to fight so that both of them are injured, but don't kill one of them.
After beating one to death, wouldn't the remaining one come and beat him, the third child?
"If Xuande and Mengde can be allowed to confront each other, and I, Jiangdong, can be on the sidelines, this will be the best choice for me, Jiangdong, and for the Lord."
"What to do?"
Lu Meng looked at Sun Quan's expression and knew in his heart that he was already tempted.
"First the army pressed down on the border and approached Hefei, and then sent an envoy to Xudu to announce that the alliance would cede territory."
Alliance ceding territory?
Sun Quan was stunned.
"Where to cut? Xuzhou?"
Lu Meng shook his head.
"Mengde is not willing to take the land of one state. If he can only cut off one land of Hefei, he might agree."
Hefei is a strategically important place. If Jiangdong is ceded to it, it will actually give up half of Xuzhou.
"How can Mengde agree?"
Sun Quan had a suspicious look on his face.
"Now, does he still have a choice? If he doesn't agree, we will send an envoy to Fancheng and make an appointment with Hou Tinghou of the Han Dynasty. He will attack Xinye and Wancheng, and I will attack Hefei from the east of the Yangtze River. By then, Mengde will be unable to do anything. Even if Even if you don’t agree to offer Hefei, we can use my bravery as Jiang Dong’s son to snatch Hefei away!”
"good!"
Sun Quan's green eyes flashed, and a smile appeared on his face.
"So, then Hefei is already in my hands, Jiangdong?"
"Hefei is just the first step for us. We formed an alliance with Meng De. We created the illusion that the army was attacking Hefei. In fact, we transferred the army to Jiangxia. When the war in Nanyang was in full swing, Liu Gongsi wanted to defeat Wuling County. When the flying army is transferred to the front line, it will be our chance to take action! At that time, we will capture Jiangling and share Jingzhou with Mengde!"
By then...
On the east side of the Yangtze River, he captured Hefei from Cao Mengde. With an outpost in Xuzhou, he had the hope of capturing Xuzhou.
On the one hand, they captured Jiangling and Xiangyang from Liu Xuande, and completely separated the Han River and Huaihe River from Meng De.
By that time, the three-legged power had formed, and he, Sun Quan, was the second most powerful among the three forces.
Then he won't be as submissive as he is today.
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
Sun Quan directly touched his palm and smiled.
"Hahaha~"
He laughed three times until he coughed and his face turned red from holding it in, and then he stopped.
"The Governor really has a big heart, Zhongmou admires him, admires him!"
Originally, he had spent such a high price to exchange Lu Meng back from Jingzhou, but he still had some grudges in his heart.
But now after hearing Lu Meng's plan, his thoughts have changed drastically:
value!
This deal is so worth it!
Even if you give him one million stones of food, what can he do?
Lu Ziming can serve as an army of 100,000 people!
"only..."
There was still some fear and hesitation in Lu Meng's eyes.
"I am just waiting for the alliance to be established, so I do this. I am afraid that no one will dare to swear an alliance with me Jiangdong in the future."
No one dares to swear an alliance with him Jiangdong?
"Once you have made an alliance, you must be prepared to break it. Don't think too much. If I, Jiangdong, conquer the world in the future, this history will be written by me, Sun Zhongmou. How can outsiders know about such unjust things?"
He has repeatedly betrayed his alliance and is naturally ridiculed by the people of the world.
But if you are laughed at by the people in the world, you will gain the world. If you laugh, just laugh!
"In this case, the negotiations on Jiangling must be completed as soon as possible to prevent Ziyu Boyan and others from being harmed by the Shu army when our army sends troops."
"good."
Since you have chosen to break the alliance, the conditions can be relaxed if appropriate.
Anyway, you won’t fulfill your promise in the future, so what are you afraid of?
All agreed!
"Zhuanling and Ziyu, please try your best to agree to Liu Gongsi's conditions."
Lu Meng said on the side: "If we want to win the trust of Mr. Liu, we must send the young lady to Jiangling early."
Send Xiaohu to Jiangling?
Sun Quan immediately shook his head.
"How can this happen? I promised Liu Gongsi the conditions that I promised, but I have no intention of fulfilling them. Since I have no intention of honoring them, the marriage is naturally cancelled. Isn't it critical to send Xiaohu to Jiangling at this moment to fight in the future? Take her life?"
Tiger poison does not even eat its seeds.
Could Sun Zhongmou do such a thing?
"Because of this, the lord has to send the young lady to Jiangling. Only in this way can Mr. Liu lose his guard and believe in the lord's sincerity. Only then will we have a chance to fight!"
Before, I sent my sister to my daughter, but now I want to send my daughter to die!
Sun Quan's expression struggled.
"If I look at it, this matter is not necessary. It's better..."
"My lord, please think again."
Lu Meng stared directly at Sun Quan and said: "I think Liu Gongsi is a young and talented man. Even if he is angry in his heart, he will not express his anger on a woman. Besides, even if he expresses his anger..."
Lu Meng did not say the next words.
Even if you are angry, it is just a life. Compared with your great cause, which one is more important?
Sun Quan frowned, he was also struggling at this moment.
"Let me think..."
"Lord!"
Lu Meng took a step forward with a rather aggressive attitude.
"If not, then we can just attack Xuzhou. If we hesitate, we will lose everything in Jiangdong, which is not good."
To make a choice, you have to be determined.
How can we win on the battlefield if the emperor and his ministers are not united?
"That's fine!"
Sun Quan sighed deeply.
I hope that Mr. Liu is really a hero.
He, Sun Zhongmou, will be a villain for a while.
But if you can capture Jingzhou, you can do it ten times, let alone be a villain for a while, and you can be a villain in Baihui, so why not?
He, Sun Zhongmou, is very thick-skinned!
"When Tzuyu's negotiations are over, I will send Xiaohu to Jiangling."
In these three days, he decided to make it up to his daughter.
Hey~
He, Sun Zhongmou, is a good man, but he cannot protect the lives and happiness of his family. He is really a coward!
but...
This coward is also the case this time.
After he takes Jingzhou and Xuzhou, who else in the world can make him a coward again?
The humiliation he suffered today will be repaid tenfold or a hundredfold by Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and that Liu Gonghe in the future!
...
That night.
He then fought with Bu Lianshi for three hundred rounds.
He tried his best to practice the trumpet again!
I, Sun Quan, am still young. Is it not possible for me to cultivate another heir?
Of course, besides taking care of things, he also gave in to the trainer to prepare the dowry for the little tiger Sun Luyu.
There is a debt in my heart, so I naturally have to prepare a generous dowry.
As for the news that he was about to use troops against Jingzhou, he did not dare to tell Bu Lianshi.
Women are emotional.
Especially knowing that her daughter is going to be sent to the tiger's den with a high probability of losing her life. As a mother, how can she agree to this?
Sun Quan had no choice but to conceal the news and make amends later.
....
the other side.
Xudu.
In the lobby of Prince Wei's Mansion, Cao Mengde was furious!
"Trash, all useless trash!"
Clang!
He pulled out the sword from the weapon rack beside him.
The sword was sharp, and Cao Cao, who was holding the sword, had a dangerous light in his eyes. No one dared to look at him wherever he looked.
"Your Majesty, victory or defeat is a common matter for military officers. The current plan is to take back Wancheng. Otherwise, Xudu will be in danger." Wei General Xu Huang stood up at this time.
He was wearing armor, and although he was not wearing a weapon, his murderous aura could not be concealed.
Cao Cao glanced at Xu Huang, sighed, and threw the sword in his hand to the ground. He covered his head with a look of pain on his face.
"Zixiao, why did you lose again!"
Poor Cao Mengde, he is already an old man in his sixties, his hair is all white at the temples, and now he still has to worry about what will happen after his death.
No one among his subordinates could make him feel at ease.
Cao Zixiao, Yu Wenze, Pang Lingming.
The humerus civil servants and generals under him were actually defeated by Guan Yunchang.
He admitted that Guan Yunchang did have two brushes, but he would not go all out to attack all of Wei's 100,000-strong army!
No matter how rich Cao Cao's family fortune was in his first half of his life, he couldn't withstand such a fuss!
It's terrible!
What a deception!
Cao Cao covered his forehead in pain. The headache that had just recovered not long ago happened again.
"I have always known that Yun Chang is a man of extraordinary wisdom and bravery. Now he has taken control of Jingxiang and is like a tiger with wings. Cao Ren and Pang De were captured and Yu Jin was surrounded by Fancheng. Our Wei soldiers were defeated. If he leads his troops to Xudu, what can be done? Guyu Move the capital to avoid it.”
This battle has reached this point, which can be described as cowardly.
Why don't you just move the capital? If you can't defeat me, you can't hide from me?
Sima Yi had been observing Cao Cao in the hall for a long time.
Seeing that Cao Cao's mood had stabilized, he held the wat board in his hand, stood up slowly, saluted to Cao Cao, and said:
"It is absolutely impossible to move the capital. The generals and others were flooded, not because of the war; it will not harm the country's grand plan.
Today, Sun and Liu are not on good terms. Liu Gongsi signed a city alliance with Sun Quan in Jiangling. Jiangdong must have two minds. Moreover, Sun Zhongmou has always been smart and knows the three parts of the world. If Liu Xuande gains power, how can he survive in Jiangdong? Sun Quan will not be happy; the king can send envoys to Dongwu to state the interests, and ask Sun Quan to secretly raise troops to guard Yun Chang, and when things calm down, the land south of the Yangtze River will be cut off for Sun Quan, and the danger of Wancheng and Fancheng will be resolved. "
After hearing Sima Yi's words, Cao Cao's eyes lit up.
seem...
There is still some room for manipulation in what Sima Zhongda said.
"Do you think Zhongda's plan is feasible?"
In the position of civil servants, the chief secretary Jiang Ji stood up with a wat tablet in his hand, saluted and said: "Zhongda's words are true. Now we can send envoys to Soochow immediately without moving the capital to mobilize the crowd."
If we were to move the capital, how big would the project be?
When hundreds of thousands of people migrate, how much food and grass are consumed?
Moreover, as soon as the capital of Xu was moved, those people in Wei who had different intentions were not very excited and wanted to revolt one by one?
What if Wancheng sends troops during the migration?
Move the capital.
In today's situation, it is definitely not a good choice, but the worst and stupidest choice!
"Yes, we must not move the capital. We should form an alliance with Jiangdong and attack Guan Yunchang together!" Liu Ye also stood up to respond.
"We should form an alliance with Soochow and attack the Jingzhou soldiers together!"
Everyone said this, and Cao Mengde knew it well.
He knelt down unsteadily and sat back on the throne, closed his eyes, and asked the officials in the hall: "In that case, while we are sending an envoy to write to Soochow, we will definitely get a great general who will be as sharp as the clouds." Who can defeat Guan Yunchang? Who among Gu’s subordinates is worthy of it?"
The only voice left in the hall was Cao Cao's voice.
In addition to this sound, the needle drop can be heard.
"The final general is willing to go to Xiangfan and defeat Guan Yunchang for the king!"
Xu Huang had never been afraid of Guan Yunchang.
Although the current situation is not good, as long as he joins forces with him, he may not be able to turn the tide.
"good!"
Cao Cao's heavy heart felt a little better.
In short, the generals under him have not yet become timid.
"I order you to be a general and attack Guan Yunchang. First, capture Wancheng, and then garrison at Yanglingpo. Wait for an alliance with Jiangdong to attack Yunchang together."
Cao Cao's eyes were dark and murderous.
This time!
Yun Chang, are you going to be defeated after all?
"promise!"
The front was defeated, and the situation was urgent. Cao Cao did not waste any time, so he allocated 50,000 elite troops and appointed Xu Huang as general and Lu Jian as deputy. He raised troops at the end of the day and stationed at Yanglingpo; he would wait for a response in the southeast before marching forward.
After all, Cao Cao's family savings from the first half of his life were strong enough.
If you squeeze in, there will be an army of tens of thousands.
but...
We can no longer withstand defeat.
Once Xiangyang was defeated, there were already other voices in the court.
A few days ago, Guan Yunchang flooded seven armies in Fancheng and killed tens of thousands of Wei's elite troops. Public opinion inside and outside the court was fierce, and rumors spread everywhere.
He asked the school government to kill hundreds of people, but the public opinion still did not stop.
Cao Cao knew in his heart that to stop public opinion and these rumors, it was useless to kill those who spoke.
We have to fight a few victorious battles on the battlefield ahead!
With a few vigorous victories, the noise in this court will be eliminated!
"Ahem."
Cao Cao coughed twice and said to the officials in his tent: "Let's disperse the court."
The official at Huangmen beside him also raised his voice and shouted loudly: "Dismiss the court!"
The ministers retreated and left the hall. Only Cao Cao and his accompanying officials were left in the huge hall of Prince Wei's palace.
After decades of dominating the world, Cao Cao felt that he was alone.
"Call the captain of the school affairs office in and report today's public opinion in Xudu."
Public opinion has been fierce these days. He, Cao Cao, could kill hundreds of people without wronging anyone.
It was all supervised and inspected by the school affairs office under him.
"See you, Your Majesty!"
The captain of the school affairs office quickly entered the hall and knelt down in front of Cao Cao.
"Are there any changes in the city today?"
"Your Majesty, there is no gathering in the city today, but there is a manor outside the city. Yingchuan, Xun, Chen and other families went on an outing, and they also talked a little about the current situation."
Yingchuan noble clan?
"Is Sima Zhongda among them?"
"Not here."
"Um."
Cao Cao nodded without changing his expression.
"Are there any other reports?"
"this..."
There was hesitation on the face of the school captain.
"I asked you to search for information, and I gave you the right to act easily. Even if it is found in the palace, you can tell me if it has anything to do with Your Majesty. Why are you hesitating?"
He set up this school affairs office just to know the information inside and outside Xudu so that he would not become deaf and blind.
There are people from the School Affairs Office in the imperial palace, let alone other places.
"It's not the palace, it's the king's family affairs."
The captain of the school affairs office knelt on the ground, took out a roll of bamboo slips from his chest, and put it over his head with both hands.
After the inner official stepped forward, he was immediately sent to Cao Cao.
Wei Wang Cao Cao's face was quite impatient. He opened the bamboo slips, but just glanced at the first glance, the face changed greatly.
"Who else knows this?"
The school captain of the school had long known that the matter was sensitive, but since he got the news, he dared not report. Now he has to kneel on the ground trembling, and his voice is a little trembling.
"Except for their subordinates, only one person knows."
Cao Cao's eyes flashed.
"This matter ... No third person knows."
Don't know the third person?
The captain of the school's government sipped a sip, and he immediately meant Cao Cao's meaning.
"Rest assured, the subordinates will deal with it."
"Go!"
Cao Cao waved his hand, like catching the flies, and drove away the school captain of the school.
The latter was relieved, and he trembled the lobby of the King's Mansion.
He has decided.
In the future, even if he knew this intelligence, he would not know.
"Hey~"
Cao Cao, who was sitting on the main position, sighed deeply.
"Zi Jian, Zi Jian, really a good son!"
But you don't look like me?
I am playing with a wife, is it someone else's wife?
And you?
Uncle is deeply affectionate?
It is really not as good as beasts!
