Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 252

Jiangdong, Wu County, among the government offices.

A copy, a jug of wine and two wine bottles on it...

Two men sit opposite each other.

From a distance, both of them are quite handsome, one of them is more elegant, and the other is more heroic.

"Gongjin, now I have conquered all the six counties in Jiangdong, and the army is in full swing... Next, will I be able to take revenge!"

The one who spoke was that heroic man, nicknamed Jiangdong Little Overlord Sun Ben, ah no...it was Jiangdong Little Overlord Sun Ce, Sun Bofu!
And the Gongjin he was talking about was naturally Zhou Yu, Zhou Gongjin!

As for the revenge mentioned by Sun Ce, it was to avenge his father, Sun Jian, who was killed by Jiangxia Huangzu...

Sun Ce and Jiangxia Huangzu are not in common, but...

There is still a buffer zone such as the Lujiang River between Jiangdong and Jiangxia.

If you want to attack Huangzu, you must first conquer Lujiang.

On the bright side, Sun Ce and Yuan Shu have already broken, and he has a hostile relationship with Liu Xun who is stationed in Lujiang.

Sun Ce declared to the outside world that he would destroy the Han bandits and launch an attack on Lujiang Liu Xun, but in fact, he was able to attack Huang Zu in Jiangxia to avenge his father in order to eliminate this middle ground.

"Bo Fu, the road has to be taken step by step, don't be in a hurry." Zhou Yu sipped his drink, "You must know, your lips are dead and your teeth are cold. If our army rushes to attack Liu Xun in Lujiang, then Huang Zu will definitely help. This battle is not good. hit!"

"Then..." Sun Ce frowned.

"Haha..." Zhou Yu smiled slightly. "Why did Bo Fu forget the four key points I mentioned!"

Sun Ce thought for a while, then spoke immediately. "How can I forget that it is the support of the people at the bottom, the construction of the middle-level organization, and the sacred value of strict military discipline and the Son of Heaven!"

… These four points raised by Sun Ce are the key to his ability to sweep Jiangdong in the past few years.

And these are all arranged by Zhou Yu for him.

"Bo Fu, when you went south to Jiangdong, you were very similar to Cao Cao when he was still in Yanzhou. The only ones left under him were the loyal and brave warriors left by the former Lord."

"But... firstly, there is a lack of soldiers, and secondly, there is a lack of land, so... I will let you have strict military discipline. Whenever you attack a city, you will 'do nothing to the people'. This is to grab the support of the people at the bottom..."

"Yuan Shu used his identity as the fourth and third prince of the Yuan family to recruit talents on the surface, but in fact, all the important positions under his command were given to Yuan's protégés and former officials. Talented people will definitely vote actively!"

Zhou Yu's words are three of the four grand strategies he has set for Sun Ce over the years.

And Sun Ce has always treated Zhou Yu, a good brother, as a god.

Zhou Yu told him to have strict military discipline. Someone in Sun Ce's army committed a crime and fled to the stables in Yuan Shu's camp. Who would have thought that Sun Ce would bring the deserter to justice in Yuan Shu's camp with the ancient ingot knife in his hand? .

As soon as this incident happened, no one in the entire Jiangdong Army dared to commit crimes.

In addition, Zhou Yu also pointed out that whenever Sun Ce's army invaded a city, it must do nothing to the people, which is even more difficult.

In this era of war and smoldering flames, it is already quite difficult to get the army to obey orders...

Not to mention committing no offense against the common people, no doubt, it will be even more difficult!

And because of the foundation of strict military discipline before, Sun Ce really did it.

The people of Jiangdong are grateful for his kindness. Wherever the army comes, they will welcome it!

Besides.

Zhou Yu was keenly aware that Yuan Shu valued his former students and underestimated Jiangdong's talents, so he suggested that Sun Ce actively recruit them.

then…

Lu Su of Dongcheng, Lu Fan of Xiyang, Zhang Zhao of Pengcheng, and Zhang Hong of Guangling came to vote one after another. This helped Sun Ce build an efficient team of advisers. In addition to the loyal and brave warriors left by his father, the middle-level organization was completed. !
And it is precisely because of the "strict military discipline", "the support of the people at the bottom", and "the high efficiency of the civil and military at the middle level", combined with Sun Ce's indomitable bravery.

As a result, Sun Ce took over the six counties of Jiangdong in just two years.

And as Zhou Yu said, the formulation of these plans is simply a replica of the rise of Cao Cao in Yanzhou.

Cao Cao was working for Yuan Shao at the beginning, and Sun Ce was also a worker at the beginning. He was conquering the six counties of Jiangdong for his boss Yuan Shu!

Lu Yu suggested that Cao Cao absorb the Yellow Turban;

Zhou Yu suggested that Sun Ce should not offend the common people. This is all bottom-level governance!

Lu Yu suggested that Cao Cao recruit talents from Yingchuan to entrust him with important tasks;

Zhou Yu suggested that Sun Ce recruit Jiangdong talents to take up important positions. This is the civil and martial arts of Zhongtong!
Coupled with the strict military discipline that Cao Cao and Sun Ce also insisted on, and the use of heavy codes in troubled times, it can be said that Sun Ce has... Cao Cao's shadow everywhere in the entire rise of Jiangdong in these years.

And this...is precisely Zhou Yu's brilliance.

Other princes often marveled at the rise of Cao Cao, but only Zhou Yu saw the essence through the phenomenon and dug out the core.

Adapting measures to local conditions has formulated a set of perfectly reproduced rising strategies, which is not to say that it is not superb.

Of course, the more it is reproduced, the more Zhou Yu feels that this strategic plan is simply terrible...

And Cao Cao implemented this strategy...

It was before Ying Chuan was able to conspire with other talents, that is to say, there was a terrible think tank beside Cao Cao, who lived in seclusion behind the curtain.

According to Zhou Yu's analysis, with the existing information...

This think tank is the newly-promoted Da Si Nong, the head of the Imperial Academy hand-picked by His Majesty - Lu Yu!
And he, very likely has another identity, that is the legendary Yin Lin!
Of course, these are not important.

But Zhou Yu was very good at copying Yinlin's "homework".

"Bo Fu, among the four strategic plans, the other three have been completed, and the last one... is the holy existence of the emperor. It's just that Cao Cao took the lead. We can only show our allegiance to the court and try to profit from it."

Zhou Yu continued...

However, Sun Ce didn't understand what he said. "It's natural to be loyal to the imperial court, but how... to profit from it?"

"Ha ha…"

Hearing the people here, Zhou Yu smiled slightly and said, "Has Bo Fu forgotten how Yuan Shu took the former Lord's troops into his pocket?"

This…

Sun Ce frowned slightly, it was the spring of the third year of Chuping, when his father, Sun Jian, and Liu Biao broke their faces and led troops to crusade!
He fought with Huang Zu, the general under Liu Biao, and was about to hit Xiangyang, but was accidentally shot and killed by a stray arrow.

It is for this reason that Jiangdong's soldiers under the chaos were instigated by someone with a heart, and they were absorbed by Yuan Shu after changing hands.

"Gongjin, what do you mean..." Sun Ce thought of something.

However, Zhou Yu carefully reminded, "Isn't today's lord the same Yuan Shu of the past? How Yuan Shu absorbed the former lord's soldiers and horses in the past, so my lord will absorb the [-] Yuan army from Lujiang today!"

Speaking of this, Zhou Yu's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Urgent report from the front, Yuan Shu's Shouchun City has been surrounded by Cao Cao. I predict that Yuan Shu will be defeated!"

When it was mentioned that Yuan Shu must be defeated.

Zhou Yu's tone was extremely firm, yes, Yin Lin helped Cao... There was also a fake Yin Lin on Yuan Shu's side, who was based on emotion and reason, and on morality and people's hearts?How can he be undefeated?

Zhou Yu paused and continued:
"The so-called rabbit dies and the monkeys scatter. When Yuan Shu is defeated, our chance will come. Liu Xun loves money, so let's...Bo Fu just follow my plan... then we can take Lujiang City without bloodshed, and take the [-] yuan. Yuan Jun is in the bag."

Speaking of here…

The corner of Zhou Yu's mouth grinned, adding a little smile to his tone. "This is the first joy?"

First joy?
Sun Ce was slightly taken aback... "Is there anything more worthy of congratulations than capturing Lujiang and absorbing fifty thousand Yuan troops?"

"Yes!" Zhou Yu's tone became more determined. "Bo Fu, you have reached the crown, but you are not yet married. I heard that there is a door on Wuzhou Mountain in the north of Dantu's Changshan Mountain in Lujiang River.

At the end of the speech, Zhou Yu paused, and his tone became a little more serious. "And under Mr. Qiao's knees, there are two beautiful beauties named 'Big Qiao' and 'Little Qiao'!" "

"There are rumors in the market - 'There are two Qiaos in Lujiang, and Zhen Mi in Hebei is pretty, and Zhen Mi in Hebei is too far away. Why don't you and my brother pick the two Qiaos in Lujiang first? It will be a good talk for a lifetime?'

Huo…

As soon as these words came out, Sun Ce experienced a different mood.

——Since ancient times, heroes love beautiful women!

——The dewy beauty is pitiful...

In an instant, he yearned for Lujiang even more.

However, what Sun Ce didn't know was...

Also, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce are not the only ones who are interested in this Lujiang River and the "people" in this Lujiang River?
"Gongjin, please tell me in detail... how to break the Lujiang River, how to accept Yuan Jun, and how to marry a charming lady?"

Sun Ce said...

"Ha ha…"

Zhou Yu replied with a smile. "Bo Fu, you're panicking. I've never seen you panic like this before?"

...

...

Under the city of Shouchun, Caoying Dazhai, the big tent of the Chinese army.

Cao Cao was discussing military affairs with Xi Zhicai.

Suddenly, outside the account, the sound of "treading" footsteps sounded, it turned out to be the grain official.

The grain official's name was Wang Hou, and he was an honest man specially selected by Cao Song for Cao Cao.

In the past, Cao Song embezzled too much money and food when he was the chief farmer, and he knew all the routines...

It is precisely for this reason that he chooses grain officials with great care. They must be excellent in character and learning, ah no... they must be honest and honest.

Wang Hou is a model here.

"Cao Sikong, the military master..."

Wang Hou cupped his hands and bowed, and then he didn't hide it. "Our army's food can only last for three days, but I heard...the slope along the way has been frozen, and it is difficult for people to pass, let alone a grain truck. I hope Cao Sikong will make preparations soon."

To put it bluntly, Wang Hou is a tactful expression, hurry up and retreat... While there is still food, it will not be too late to come after the rainy season.

only…

Now that the most critical period has come, the comparison between Cao Cao and Yuan Shu is at one breath, and whoever gets discouraged first will definitely suffer a catastrophe.

call…

Cao Cao let out a long breath.

"Playing a military division? What's your opinion?"

"This..." Xi Zhicai finally settled after rolling his eyeballs again and again. "If, with some extraordinary measures, perhaps... the food for three days can be delayed."

Xi Zhicai didn't put his words so bluntly...

It's interesting, how can Cao Cao not understand.

"I think so too." Cao Cao nodded, and put his head in front of Wang Hou. "You do what I say, and change the originally distributed big dendrobium to small dendrobium! It's time to save the emergency!"

This…

After all, Wang Hou is an honest person, so he asked back immediately. "But... but in this case, the soldiers complain? What should I do?"

"Don't worry, when the time comes, I will naturally have a solution." Cao Cao patted Wang Hou on the shoulder and added meaningfully. "Wang Liangguan? It's been a while since we left for the expedition. Are you homesick? How many people are there?"

This...Wang Hou still didn't understand, nodded, and replied truthfully: "Who doesn't want to go home, please trouble Cao Sikong, there are five people in the family, father, mother, wife and child!"

"Oh...hahaha..." Cao Cao first remembered silently, and then laughed out loud. "It's right to be homesick. When this battle is won, your family will be able to live a good life. Haha, let's go... Xiaohu will share the food."

Wang Hou was stupid and naive, thinking that this was Cao Cao wanting to reward him after the war...

Immediately ecstatic.

"Thank you, Cao Sikong, thank you, Cao Sikong..." He jumped out of the big tent, and went to carry out the task that Cao Sikong said about the food distribution!

In his view, the morale of the army will certainly be in turmoil, but Cao Sikong must have a solution.

Watching his back as he leaves...

"Alas..." Xi Zhicai shook his head helplessly.

He didn't open his mouth to say anything. In this troubled world, many things can't be done as they should. Are you not ruthless?How can it be a big deal!
The so-called non-toxic and non-husband...

at this time.

"Da da da... da da da..." The sound of horseshoes resounded in the camp.

You know, before Cao Cao ordered that unless it was an urgent matter related to food, horses could go straight to the tent of the Chinese army, but now...the sound of horseshoes.

Immediately, Cao Cao frowned, and ran out quickly in three steps.

Xi Zhicai also hastily followed out...

But what is in front of me is not food, but... Cao Anmin, Cao Cao's nephew——Cao Anmin.

"My nephew pays respects to my uncle and my military advisor!"

As Cao Anmin's words fell, Cao Cao asked urgently. "What about the food? Is there a way for Chen Guo to send food?"

This…

Cao Anmin took out a small bag from behind and handed it to Cao Cao.

The bag is full of grain, which is an unacceptable method. Let the cavalry go back and forth between Chen Guo and Shouchun, and bring a small amount of grain with them.

only…

Compared to the consumption of food and grass for an army of more than [-] troops...it is simply a drop in the bucket.

Seeing this grain bag, Cao Cao was immediately disappointed, and his heart sank a lot.

Never thought that what Cao Anmin said next gave him endless hope.

"Uncle, Lu Si Nong has arrived in Chen Guo... He asked the boy to bring a word to uncle."

"What?"

Hearing it was Lu Yu's words, Cao Cao cheered up immediately.

Xi Zhicai also pricked up his ears.

Lu Yu, the name, can almost be completely linked to words like "miracle" and "unbelievable" in Cao Ying.

"Lu Si Nong said, let Cao Sikong persist for another ten days...suspend the attack, and within ten days he will find a way to deliver food!" Cao Anmin said firmly.

call…

After blurting out these words, Cao Cao let out a sigh of relief, and he looked back at Xi Zhicai.

And Xi Zhicai was also very surprised, because... just before the arrival of the food official Wang Hou, Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai discussed the final strategy - a strong attack.

Without any technical content, it is a strong attack of pure hard power collision.

In this way, many people may die, but...the matter has come to this point, there is no other choice!

Rather…

Did Lu Yu predict this attack?

Cao Cao's eyes narrowed slightly.

This is not the point, the point is that Yu'er proposed...within ten days, he will deliver the food.

This…

"Gudong" Xi Zhi swallowed. "Lu Si Nong never said anything he was not sure of, maybe... this time, he can really think of a way!"

Is there a way?
Cao Cao's heart is like a mirror. If so... he can really deliver the food and avoid a strong attack, what does that mean to him, to tens of thousands of soldiers and horses?
A city under siege...that's it, people outside want to get in, people inside want to get out.

As long as it can be delayed for one more day, then... the probability of winning without a fight can be increased by one more point.

Now... the most critical, the most critical time has come.

"I see." Cao Cao nodded... "Where is Zhongkang?"

"The end is here." Xu Chu stepped forward quickly.

"Tell Wang Hou to try his best to survive until the tenth day!"

"Here!" Xu Chu agreed and hurried to make arrangements.

Ten days…

Is this a gamble?Of course, Cao Cao made double preparations...

Within ten days, if Yu'er could deliver the food, everyone would be happy, but...if not, then...the butcher knife hanging above Wang Hou's head would have to fall!
The lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers cannot be saved!

At this moment, Cao Cao's eyes narrowed, how he hoped that Yu'er would be able to perform a miracle this time as usual.

...

...

On the mountain road from Chen Guo to Shouchun.

More than a hundred wooden oxen and flowing horses are walking fast.

Speaking of which, Shouchun City is indeed a depression, but... this depression is a bit deep.

It is not against harmony to say that it is a huge basin!

It should be noted that if you want to transport food from Chen Guo, you must first climb several continuous mountains.

Then, go down the mountain again along the mountain road.

The so-called - going up the mountain is easy, going down the mountain is difficult...

In this season of continuous rain, it is not easy to go up and down the mountain, and the mountain road is too slippery.

Even people can't stand still and fall frequently...

But what is unbelievable is that for some reason, the wooden ox and the flowing horse seem to be able to firmly grasp the ground with their wheels. No matter how steep the hillside is, just twist the tongue of the ox or the horse... the wooden ox and the flowing horse will be in an emergency brake!
No matter how hard you try, you can't push it.

The extremely steep hillside remains motionless, as stable as Mount Tai.

And this... seems to have become a secret weapon for passing steep slopes, and it can even help soldiers transporting food gain a firm foothold.

The most powerful thing is that the wooden cow and the flowing horse don't know what principle they used!
Even if it is from the bottom to the top... It is completely effortless to push, and it is extremely light!
This made the soldiers transporting food feel extremely relaxed for the first time!

hiss…

These naturally cannot escape the eyes of Dian Wei and Huang Zhong.

"Xu'er? Did you really make the wooden ox and the flowing horse?" Huang Zhong was a little unbelievable. His son, who was weak and sick since he was a child, could actually make such a masterpiece?

Huang Zhong couldn't help showing an old father's smile, but he also wanted to know what exactly Xu'er experienced in Taixue?
"It's not just me..." Huang Xu pointed to Dianman not far away, speaking very modestly. "If Director Lu left behind the guidance of books, without Big Brother Dian, Big Brother Xu...without Young Master Ang, without Kong Ming...how could my child complete it independently!"

"Actually, it was Kong Ming who figured out the middle principle. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid it won't be until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse to make the wooden ox and the horse!"

Huo...Humble, not proud.

Huang Zhong was extremely pleased, and praised again and again: "Hahaha, Xu'er, well, I, Huang Zhong, gave birth to a good son!"

Old consolation...

Not far away, Dian Wei also patted Dian Man on the shoulder. "You boy, there are two tricks. Originally, I thought about it. Our old Dian family is rough except for your mother-in-law! You can't go to the Imperial Academy, and you can't understand the principles of those teachers."

"However, Man'er, what you do is really good, hehe, I didn't expect that after going to the imperial school, my brain is so much smarter! Better than your father!"

"It will be like this from now on, learn more from Mr. Lu, it will be of great benefit to your mother."

Hearing this, Dianman scratched his head, is this a compliment?
Father's exaggeration is really unique!
at this time…

The food team turned around a mountain.

Far away on the mountain, you can already see Shouchun City in the depression, and...below the Shouchun City, a large group of densely packed black people surrounding Shouchun City.

"Father, look... it's almost here!"

call…

As soon as these words came out, Dian Wei let out a sharp breath, and his eyes froze all of a sudden.

He looked at the sky, spread his fingers and counted, ten days... today is exactly ten days!
Haha, I finally fulfilled my mission, and I'm about to arrive!
The master's calculation of this time is just right, it's the limit!

...
