Soldiers come to the world

Qin Mi went down to rest first, and only Sun Quan and his ministers were left in the inner hall. At this moment, Sun Quan sighed and said, "Should we really want Cao Jun to leave?"

Zhang Zhao hesitated for a moment and said, "Didn't Marquis Wu publicly express his opinion before that he wanted Cao Jun to withdraw from Jiangdong?"

Sun Quan shook his head, "That happened in November last year. At that time, Cao Cao and Cao Pi ignored it. Now the situation is different. Cao's army has withdrawn to the north of the Huaihe River. If Cao's army in Jiangdong goes further, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you. But if Cao Jun doesn't leave, I can't afford the army's money and food expenses, to be honest, I'm in a dilemma!"

Speaking of this, Sun Quan took out another letter and handed it to Zhang Zhao and Bu Zhi, "This is an urgent letter from Cao Cao's order the day before yesterday. Cao Cao's meaning is that we hope that we can openly retain Cao Jun."

Both Zhang Zhao and Bu Zhi were taken aback. They didn't know that Cao Cao had sent the letter, and Wu Hou didn't tell them. Zhang Zhao hurriedly took the letter and read it. Sun Quan looked at him and asked, "What is Zibu?" manner?"

Zhang Zhao handed the letter to Bu Zhi, pondered for a while and said: "I thought that Cao Cao was bound by the agreement with Liu Jing, so he had to withdraw his troops, but he didn't want to leave Jiangdong, so he hoped that we would stay, so that he You can give Liu Jing an explanation."

"What does Chang Shi mean?" Sun Quan's eyes turned to Bu Zhi again.

Bu Zhi sighed and said: "Cao Cao wants to pass the responsibility on to us. In fact, the responsibility is not important. The key is whether the Han army will withdraw from Taihu Lake. If the Han army refuses to withdraw, then Cao Jun is best to stay. But if If the Han army is willing to withdraw, there is no need for the Cao army to stay in Jiangdong."

Bu Zhi saw it very thoroughly, and directly pointed to the root of the problem. It is best for both sides to withdraw their troops!

It's just that the first condition for the withdrawal of the Han army is that the Cao army should leave, which made Jiangdong have to take a risk. First let the Cao army withdraw, and then negotiate with the Han army. It’s not big, but it will give Liu Jing an excuse to attack, no matter what! Let’s make it clear that Cao Jun must withdraw from Jiangdong.”

.........

Piling County is today's Changzhou area. During the Three Kingdoms period, it was an important area for farming in Jiangdong. Jiangdong specially set up Piling Diannong Xiaowei here to be responsible for farming.

However, during the Battle of Hefei, in order to assist Jiangdong against the Han army in Kuaiji County, Cao Cao ordered General Ban to lead [-] troops into Jiangdong, and then stationed in Piling County. It has been more than half a year in a flash, which seriously affected Jiangdong in Piling County. Tuntian.

At this time, the Battle of Hefei was over, and Cao’s army had all retreated to the north of the Huai River. According to the agreement between the two parties, Yu Jin’s army must also retreat to the north of the Huai River. However, Yu Jin’s army was deployed by Cao Cao himself and was not under Cao Pi’s jurisdiction, so his army Withdrawing to the north requires Cao Cao's order.

Of course, the armistice agreement signed by Cao Pi and Liu Jing represented the Han and Wei dynasties, and Yu Jin must also follow it, but there is a time difference in the middle. Cao Cao needs to wait for the armistice agreement to be approved before issuing an order for Yu Jin's army to withdraw northward.

This is a necessary process. In common words, there is no rush. However, the Han and Cao armies signed many agreements, and most of them did not abide by them. Both sides are accustomed to it. Cao Cao will not treat the agreement signed by Hefei The thing is, in his opinion, the battle of Hefei was just a defeat in a decent way due to lack of strength. Once the strength is restored, he will send troops south to retake Hefei.

Similarly, once the Han army has sufficient strength, they will also find excuses to tear up the agreement, and the army will never be really subject to the two-year truce period when the army crosses the Huaihe River.

It is also because of the tacit understanding between the two sides that Cao Cao actually did not want to withdraw the Cao army in Jiangdong. He hoped to use this army to contain the Han army from attacking Jiangdong, so as to keep Jiangdong.

However, Cao Cao did not consider Jiangdong's ability to bear, and did not expect that Jiangdong would not be able to afford Cao Jun's money and food expenses. Sun Quan has publicly stated that he hopes that this Cao army can withdraw from Jiangdong as soon as possible.

But what made Cao Cao even more embarrassed was that although the Cao army had withdrawn from Shouchun to the north, the Han army in Pengcheng had no intention of withdrawing southward. , then the Han army in Xuzhou will not withdraw southward.

With this in mind, Cao Cao sent Yu Jin an urgent pigeon letter. In principle, the letter agreed with Yu Jin to withdraw to the north, but it depended on Jiang Dong's attitude. Staying in Piling County, as for the Han army in Xuzhou refusing to retreat southward, Cao Cao will negotiate with Liu Jing again.

Sun Quan also knew this, so he sent Bu Zhi and Qin Mi to Piling together, clearly expressing Jiangdong's attitude, and hoped that Cao Jun would withdraw from Jiangdong.

In Cao Jun's camp outside Piling County, Yu Jin sat alone in the big tent, looking very preoccupied. On the table was a letter that his younger brother Yu Ze had just sent.

Yu Jin also heard about Yu Ze's surrender to the Han army in Nanyang. At first he was a little nervous, fearing that Yu Ze would hurt himself, but Cao Cao still appointed him as the commander of the Cao army stationed in Jiangdong. Yu Jin was relieved. Cao Cao He was also deeply grateful for his trust in himself.

At this time, Yu Ze wrote a letter, advising him to see the general trend of the world clearly and make a wise choice as soon as possible. At the same time, the letter also revealed that the King of Han attached great importance to him. If he surrendered, he would definitely be valued by the King of Han.

In fact, Yu Jin is also very clear that the situation is not good for Cao Wei step by step. The Han State not only surpassed Cao Wei in terms of military and national power, but also gained political advantages after Liu Jing established his capital in Chang'an. People in the world have gradually forgotten the puppet emperor of Yedu. And Liu Jing is regarded as the successor of the Han Dynasty, and it is only a matter of time before Liu Jing unifies the world.

The situation has reached such a point, how could Yu Jin not consider his own future, but Cao Cao treated him well, and after Yu Ze surrendered, he still trusted him so much, how could Yu Jin have the heart to betray Cao Cao.

As for Liu Jing's special regard for him, of course Yu Jin knew the reason, and he could only smile wryly in return. Maybe meeting Liu Jing back then was indeed a kind of fate arranged by heaven!

Just as he was thinking about it, a soldier hurried to the front of the big tent and reported: "General Qi, Qin Mi, the envoy of the King of Han, and Bu Zhi, the envoy of the Marquis of Wu, are asking to see you outside the barracks."

Yu Jin was stunned for a moment, two messengers came hand in hand, he pondered for a moment and said: "Please sit in the side tent, I will come right away!"

Not long after, an officer invited Qin Mi and Bu Zhi into the side tent, "You two envoys, please sit down for a while, I'll go and invite General Yu over."

The officer came in a hurry, and Bu Zhi reminded Qin Mi in a low voice: "Yu Jin may not be willing to retreat north, but Zichi can remind him implicitly that his attitude and tone should not be tough, so as to prevent him from detaining us as hostages."

Qin Mi smiled and nodded, "Don't worry! I know what's going on."

After a while, Yu Jin walked into the big tent quickly, and smiled heartily after entering the tent: "I didn't know that the two envoys had arrived, but I never greeted them from afar. Forgive me! Forgive me!"

Qin Mi and Bu Zhi got up at the same time and saluted Yu Jin together, "General Yu is too polite."

Yu Jin and the two sat down among the guests, and Yu Jin first asked Bu Zhi, "The grain and grass in the army can only last for a few days. I wonder when Marquis Wu will deliver the grain and grass?"

Bu Zhi smiled awkwardly, "Marquis Wu is already making arrangements!"

"Then I have to ask Chang Shi to remind Marquis Wu for me. Cao Jun's military discipline is good, but once the food runs out, I worry that the soldiers will be forced to do something that hurts the civilians. This is something neither of us wants to happen. "

Yu Jinsen's naked threat caused Bu Zhi's expression to change. The smile on his face disappeared, and he said nothing with a gloomy face. Yu Jinsen stared at Bu Zhi coldly. With a sound, a smile appeared on his face, he turned his head to Qin Mi and said, "I don't know if Master Qin has come all the way, is there any important matter that needs Yu Jin's help?"

Qin Mi took out a scroll and handed it to Yu Jin, "This is the armistice agreement signed by the two armies of Han and Cao. On it is the autograph of Duke Wei on behalf of the state of Wei. I believe that General Yu knows about this, so follow the agreement between the two parties." , Cao Jun must retreat to the north of the Huaihe River, including General Yu's army, His Highness the King of Han would like to know, when will General Yu plan to withdraw?"

Yu Jin slowly took the scroll, opened it and looked at it. It turned out to be the original copy, with the signature of his son Cao Pi on it. He was silent for a while and said: "I have heard about this matter. According to the agreement, I should indeed withdraw to the north, but Cao Jun The military regulations are strict, I have to receive the withdrawal tiger talisman and Wei Gong's warrant before I can withdraw the army, and Yedu is a long way to Jiangdong. It will take a little time, please tell His Highness the King of Han, once Wei Gong's order arrives, I will immediately retreat north."

Speaking of this, Yu Jin glanced at Bu Zhi again, and said with a smile: "Of course, Cao Jun needs Jiang Dong's consent to retreat northward. After all, it was Jiang Dong who invited Cao Jun to go south. If the master doesn't open his mouth, it's not good for the guests to leave at will."

Yu Jin originally thought that Bu Zhi would ask Wu Hou Yunyun for instructions, and he and himself declined Qin Mi's request to withdraw troops, but Bu Zhi was extremely unhappy because of Yu Jin's forced food just now, and threw away the words reminding Qin Mi to be subtle and euphemistic. In the back of his head, as soon as Yu Jin finished speaking, he said coldly, "Marquis Wu has decided to accept the armistice agreement between the Han army and Cao army. If Cao army wants to cross the river and withdraw north, Jiangdong will not stop it. At the same time, it will provide ships for crossing the river." .”

Yu Jin's face suddenly turned cold, and none of the three said anything. The atmosphere in the big tent became extremely depressing. After a long time, Yu Jin nodded and said, "I will tell Wei Gong about Jiang Dong's attitude in time, and the withdrawal of troops , As I said just now, as long as the order of Duke Wei is issued, I will withdraw the troops immediately, this can be regarded as my official statement, and please Qin Lord Bo report to His Highness the King of Han."

Qin Mi smiled slightly and got up and said, "In that case, I will take my leave."

Yu Jin also took a cold look at Bu Zhi, and said: "I hope Bu Changshi will take the matter of military rations to heart. My military rations are only enough for three days. After three days, many unpleasant things will happen. Don't blame me then." Jiang Dong was not reminded."

Bu Zhi didn't say a word, followed Qin Mi to say goodbye, and Yu Jin sent them out of the camp all the time, watching the team go away, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, what should he do now?To withdraw or not to withdraw?

In fact, he had already received Cao Cao's withdrawal order, but Cao Cao asked him to use Jiangdong as a prevarication, trying to delay the time as much as possible, and finally made the withdrawal matter nothing.

But now Jiang Dong has made it clear that he wants to withdraw his troops, and his military rations can only last for ten days at most. Judging from Jiang Dong's intention, he is not going to allocate food to himself. Is he really going to be forced to send troops to loot Piling County?

Wei Gong let himself figure it out, so what can he do?The Han army first sent envoys to urge him to withdraw northward. If he refused to withdraw, the Han army would inevitably increase its troops to Taihu Lake and directly threaten Piling County. Maybe it would take the opportunity to destroy Jiangdong.

Yu Jin's heart was in a mess. At this time, he thought of the secret letter written by his brother Yu Ze. After hesitating for a long time, Yu Jin finally sighed.
