Back to the Three Kingdoms to be the Lord

Chapter 143 Strategic Standby

Song Ji was not far outside the door, when she heard Zheng Yu crying loudly inside the room, she was shocked, and hurried in to inquire.Zhao Yun quickly told her what happened just now, "Sister-in-law, let my elder brother cry, just cry out, he has always been worried about General Liu's death on the battlefield, sister-in-law is going to rest first, brother Youyun is taking care of him."

Seeing that everyone was crying with tears, Song Ji covered her face and wept, she was deeply moved.She knew that these were generals who had fought on the battlefield for a long time, and the men did not shed tears lightly, it was because they were extremely saddened by General Liu's death that they cried so emotionally.

It's just that men don't cry, but this cry is earth-shattering.

Song Ji went out and did not leave, but stood not far from the door, and when she heard the man crying in the house, she couldn't help feeling sad and sad, tears fell down involuntarily.Wu Wu and Wu Yue came over and stayed by her side.

Wu Wu took out a handkerchief to wipe Song Ji's tears, held her arm, and said softly: "I always see my husband laughing and joking, and he has a friendly attitude and takes good care of the sisters, but who would have thought that there is such sadness hidden in his heart?" Well, Wu Wu wants to cry too." In the middle of speaking, she burst into tears.

Wu Yue felt sad in her heart, and also cried loudly.For a while, there was a crowd of crying inside and outside the house. The people inside were crying for General Liu, but the people outside were crying for their husband-in-law.

Song Ji was originally sitting on the stone by the courtyard, but she stood up now, took Wu Wu and Wu Yue into her arms, and comforted her softly, "Wu Wu and Wu Yue don't cry, Xianggong and other adults are crying for General Liu. , that’s because they are grateful to General Liu and impressed by his character, that’s why they are like this, it’s fine for them to cry, we don’t cry.”

Song Ji said she didn't cry, but she couldn't hold back the tears.

She was moved to cry for Zheng Yu.She also knew something about General Liu, and she knew the general idea from Lei Bao and Zheng Yu and others' conversations before.In her heart, Zheng Yu is also the same kind of person as General Liu. They both risk their lives for the safety of their subordinates, and always keep the most dangerous places for themselves.

"When Xianggong was fighting in Qingzhou, every time he attacked, he always took the lead and rushed to the front. When retreating, he was the last person and the last one. When he broke through, he led a thousand-man team and led the main force in order to cover General Liu. Breaking through the encirclement, rushing all the way to the north, I just wanted to try my best to attract the main force of the enemy to myself, so that General Liu's chances of winning the encirclement increased. In the end, my family was lucky, and the soldiers worked hard to break out of the encirclement..."

Song Ji choked up and said, but when she got to this point, she couldn't continue.

Wu Wu and Wu Yue patted her on the back, and said earnestly: "Our Xianggong is also a person of high moral character just like General Liu. General Liu has moved Xianggong and all other subordinates, and Xianggong has also touched so many subordinates. He is a dead man of my husband, someone who can die for my husband."

After a long time, Song Ji calmed down, and then said: "At dawn, Xianggong broke out of the siege, but found that there were only dozens of people behind him, including Zhao Yong, Wang Meng and Sun Qi, and rode back to the enemy's line without hesitation. Looking for the besieged subordinates, killing from left to right, and finally rescued thousands of subordinates who had been divided and surrounded by the Black Mountain Army. They were grateful for the kindness of their father and swore loyalty to the death. This is the origin of Zheng Jiajun."

Wu Wu sighed, and said leisurely: "Xianggong not only has high martial arts skills, but also has noble morals. The court named and commended General Liu and Xianggong. I'm touched, even that murderous Dong Zhuo respects General Liu and our family's father-in-law, from what Lei Bao said, it was clearly stated in the imperial palace newspaper."

The three girls went back to the hut next door to wait, and they were talking in the hut. Song Ji went to check on Zheng Yu and the others from time to time, and stayed silently in the hut with Wu Wu and Wu Yue, listening to the man from the next door. Weeping, weeping with them.

In the middle of the night, Zheng Yu woke up and saw that he was still in the cafeteria with a few candles flickering faintly. Zhao Yun and Lei Bao sat beside him to guard him. There was a mess on the ground, but they were all covered with thick quilts, so Zheng Yu felt relieved.

Seeing that both Zhao Yun and Lei Bao were not asleep, he couldn't help being touched and said, "You guys go to sleep too, I'm fine."

After finishing speaking, he was about to stand up, staggered and almost fell, Zhao Yun hurriedly supported him, "Brother, let me help him go back to sleep, it's not yet dawn. Besides, the three sister-in-laws are waiting in the next room. , and asked the guards to come over and cover everyone with these quilts, and they have been crying too."

Zhao Yun was extremely touched, for Zheng Yu and his comrades in arms, and also for the kindness of the three sister-in-laws next door, knowing that these are people of high moral character, everyone showed their true nature tonight.

"I'm fine, just help me to sit on a chair next to me for a while, I'll be here with them tonight, and I'll go see your three sister-in-laws after dawn, they are all good girls." After finishing speaking, Zheng Yu struggled to get up, Zhao Yun and Lei Bao hurriedly supported him, walked to the side chair and sat down.

"My lord, I'll go talk to the mistress and ask them to bring you some tea. My lord, drink a cup of tea to quench your thirst." Lei Bao was about to go to the next door, but was stopped by Zheng Yu, "Let them sleep for a while, they also tired."

Zhao Yun quickly said: "Before, I heard the sisters-in-law talking in a low voice, and weeping from time to time."

When Zheng Yu heard that Song Ji and the others had been next door and wept with them, he was moved and couldn't help but sighed, "Three silly girls, men are crying, why are they crying?"

Zhao Yun took the words and said seriously: "Ke Yun thinks that the sister-in-laws are of high moral character, and they are genuine. They were moved not only by General Liu, but also by their elder brother. To tell the truth, Yun was also moved to death. In that battle, I heard everyone talking about General Liu, and I felt that this is a real man, a real hero."

Zheng Yu was silent, and he said after a long time: "General Liu has great kindness to my brother, and his character is enough to move the world. I learned from Wang Pin that General Liu's last words showed that he actually saw the result of the breakout very clearly. He also judged that my road was the most likely to break through, so he gave me the best troops, including Wu Tao and more than 500 people with high martial arts skills, and my brother broke through easily. He is our lifesaver Where is the benefactor?"

Thinking that before leaving, General Liu Yun promoted him to be the commander in charge of the breakout at the last moment, presented him with a horse and a sword, patiently explained the strategy and tactics, and left Wu Tao and other martial arts figures to him, including martial arts masters such as Sun Ce, to form Only the strongest Death Squad was able to break through with victory later on. Thinking of this, Zheng Yu felt sore in his heart and couldn't help but shed tears.

Zhao Yun and Lei Bao stayed silently by their side without saying a word, until Zheng Yu calmed down, Zhao Yun said to Lei Bao: "Zheng Er, go and talk to the mistress, don't make them worry too much, just say the lord never mind."

Lei Bao hurriedly got up and went out. Not long after, Song Ji, Wu Wu, and Wu Yue hurried in. Just as they were about to speak, Zheng Yu pressed his finger to his lips, signaling not to speak, and the three women hurriedly walked to his side lightly.Seeing that Zheng Yu was still in good spirits, Song Ji ordered Wu Wu and Wu Yue, "Let the maids make some tea, make some gruel, and get some pasta and vegetables. It's almost dawn, so let's prepare breakfast. Get some hot towels for me." Ladies and gentlemen, wash your face and wash your hands..."

Wu Wu and Wu Yue turned and left. Song Ji fell into Zheng Yu's arms, not wanting to get up anymore, and after a long time, she said softly, "Mr. Xiang, Yu'er is frightened!"

Zheng Yu caressed her long hair affectionately, and said softly: "It's okay, a big cry will untie the knot. People can't be resurrected after death. General Liu died with glory and greatness. Even Dong Zhuo's generation, for Liu The general is also very respectful, he is a role model for my Han soldiers, he is a martial sage!"

At dawn, Zhao Yong, Wu Tao, Wang Pin, Sun Qi, Zheng Da and others all woke up, walked up to Zheng Yu and Song Ji and knelt down, "Master Wan'an, mistress Wan'an!"

Zheng Yu waved his hand and said, "Okay, last night was really fun! Xiao Yun vowed today that he must go to Chang'an to bring General Liu's widow and children to his side, and never let them suffer the slightest bit of suffering in the future. When the right time comes, we will Let’s all go to pay homage to General Liu’s tomb, and then everyone will cry again!” The actions last night made the relationship between Zheng Yu and his subordinates become extremely deep, and the distance between them became closer, and they were no longer the relationship between the master and the subordinates. , are comrades-in-arms and relatives who are closer than brothers.

That afternoon, Wang Meng rushed over from Shanggu with [-] cavalry, and Zheng Yu led Song Ji, Zhao Yun and other subordinates to meet him.So far, the troops in Liucheng and the surrounding areas have gathered, ready to go, and Zheng Yu no longer has any worries.

That night, it was another welcome banquet, but there was less drinking, and the main thing was to talk about things.

"From this point of view, we are not in a hurry to make a military decision. The army will be stationed in Liucheng, rest and reorganize the troops, and train quickly. At the same time, we will conduct joint exercises with the Wuhuan cavalry to learn more about their horse skills and improve the combat quality of the troops. In war, our strategy is 'strategic standby'. After all of them have exhausted their means and the outcome is won, we will decide where our army will go, hmph, let them fight to the death."

Zheng Yu told the generals about his decision, he was afraid of the strategies of Gongsun Du, Wu Da, Su Boyan and others, and he didn't want to participate in it.Therefore, the strategic countermeasure of responding to all changes with the same is adopted in the end.

The so-called strategic standby means waiting until the strategic situation becomes clear before deciding on a strategic move. Previously, he only needed to protect himself. With tens of thousands of elite soldiers in his hands, Zheng Yu was already in an extremely active position in the Liaodong War.

"Don't worry about the camping and supplies of the armies from all walks of life. I will take care of it. It's just that it's hard to keep secrets after a long time. What can I do, Mr. Song?" Song Ji first said to the generals, and then turned to ask Zheng Yu.

"There is no need to keep it absolutely secret, and it cannot be kept secret. With so many troops stationed on the front line of Liucheng, people will always be discovered. What we need to keep secret is the number and strength of the troops. It is enough for the opponent to misjudge. Others don't need to think too much " Zheng Yu stood up and said with a serious expression: "So the troops in the Liucheng and Wuhuan areas are all under the command of Zhao Yun! The others must absolutely obey orders!"

The generals agreed, but Zheng Yu was more worried about Ta Dun, so he turned to Song Ji and said, "Yu'er, send someone to talk to Ta Dun and convey my order."

Song Ji said seriously: "It's enough for Xianggong to pass on the order. Yu'er has already told him that Xianggong is still his adoptive father. If he dares not listen, I will skin him. Xianggong directly orders him to be removed from his post." .Anyone who dares to disobey the military order will be killed without mercy!"
