Chapter 349 Brother Sima recruits soldiers (2)
When he talked about this, Deng Ai, Zhou Tai, Zhuge Dan and other people from remote and remote families couldn't help tears on their faces and cheeks.Yes!Deng Ai remembered that his parents starved to death after the food at home was robbed by the rebels when Lu Bu rebelled!However, Zhou Tai was an orphan whose parents died in the war since he was a child and was adopted by Sima Mansion.However, Zhuge Dan remembered that Emperor Taizu Wu had bloodbathed Xuzhou to avenge his father, forcing his father who lived in Xuzhou to die of fear, and also forcing his two cousins—Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang—to leave their hometowns and live far apart...all of this Disasters and disasters are all brought about by this 60-year-long war!It has indeed carved a deep brand of pain in the bottom of everyone's heart!

Seeing their grief-stricken expressions, Sima Shi seemed to have been strongly infected. He couldn't help standing up excitedly, and continued to make a speech: "This tragic situation must end as soon as possible! This is the voice of thousands of families. , It is also an irreversible will of God! Since the year my father was established, he has assisted Emperor Taizu Wu, Emperor Gaozu Wen, and Emperor Lie Zuming to monitor the public opinion and fight day and night, defeating the Prime Minister of Shu. Zhuge Liang wiped out the traitor Gongsun Yuan, expanded the land for two thousand miles in the Jiangdong area, forced back the rampant invasion of Sun Quan and Lu Xun, and laid a solid foundation for clearing thousands of miles and unifying Liuhe!

"Nowadays, with the destruction of Wu and the destruction of Shu, the important task of reunifying the world is placed in front of everyone. Everyone is in the prime of life. Although they are not well-known for the time being, they all have a strategic strategy and are both civil and military. The elite! You will be the backbone and main force of my great Wei to conquer Wu and destroy Shu, and to unify Liuhe. The turbulent history of Yijiazi will end in your hands! Your achievements will surely overshadow Bai Qi, Han Xin, Huo Qubing, Wei Qing, yours The honor will last forever! You must be full of confidence, take it as your mission to destroy Wu and destroy Shu, and unify Liuhe, to end the chaotic war of Jiazi, to clear up thousands of miles, to bring together the eight wildernesses, to usher in a peaceful and prosperous age, and to establish a vision for the people of the world. Gong, become the name of immortality! Master is here today to encourage each other to make progress together and create a great cause together!"

As soon as he said this, there was a pause in his voice, but he saw that although no one answered on the field, almost everyone's eyes were shining with excitement and strange brilliance.Master Sima's gaze swept over slowly, and he could see that the strange brilliance in their eyes was more real than any rhetoric!He calmed down his fluctuating mood, and continued: "Do you have the confidence to follow my father to carry out the great cause of 'putting down Wu, destroying Shu, and unifying Liuhe' to the end?"

At this time, Deng Ai stood up in awe, clasped his fists and said: "Sima Jun upholds the great ambition of the Taifu, and Niannian takes it as his duty to help the world and calm chaos. I will never fail the expectations of Master Taifu and Lord Sima!"

He is the most outstanding talent among the former officials of Sima Yi's disciples, and a few words are enough to say a lot.His public statement made Zhou Tai, Zhuge Dan, Li Fu and others also stand up, bowed and said: "We vow to follow Master Taifu and Lord Sima to go through fire and water, and destroy Wu and Shu!"

Sima Shi was originally a man of temperament, and was moved to tears immediately, stood up and saluted them with fists, "Since you are so valued by brothers and sisters, I thank you on behalf of my father!"

After the host and guest sat down again, Master Sima stopped being polite, and asked straight to the point: "Today, the master respectfully invited the four brothers here by the order of my father, and I really have something important to ask for advice. In today's world, Wu and Shu stand side by side, and they are all enemies. If the Great Wei wants to send troops to fight against dissenting ministers, who should take the lead?"

Deng Ai saw Master Sima cast his gaze towards him, and did not avoid it, so he answered bluntly: "I want to report to Mr. Sima, Deng has been in Guanzhong for a long time, and he has a better understanding of the situation of the pseudo-Shu. Since Zhuge Liang died of illness, the pseudo-Shu The vigor has been greatly damaged. Apart from the fact that Jiang Wei, a puppet general who has been stationed in Hanzhong, has been dying to fight back, it can be said that there is not much threat to our great Wei. However, the Shu bandits are sitting on the natural danger of Jianmen and the advantages of the mountains. Insufficient, self-regulation is more than enough. In addition, Zhuge Liang has always been good at taking precautions, and sent troops to guard all the main entrances of Wei that can take the opportunity to enter Shu. Therefore, if we want to forcibly attack the puppet Shu, the price we pay must be It is very serious! Taifu and Sima Jun please think twice!"

"Well... Master understands. Master will definitely pass on your opinion, General Deng, to my father." Master Sima nodded deeply, then turned his gaze to Zhou Tai who was stationed in the Jingxiang area, and asked solemnly, "Then , what is the situation in the Jingchu region?"

"Mr. Sima, the territory of Jingchu has always been the lifeblood of the puppet Wu, so they have never been ambiguous about the protection here. And Lu Xun, the governor of the puppet Wu stationed in Wuchang, has almost no literary and military strategy. Fu Shixia, Zhoutai and Wang Zhennan have joined forces for these years, and they can only barely draw with him! Therefore, it is very difficult for the great Wei army to directly wedge into the pseudo-Wu Jiangnan from the Jingxiang area. !” Zhou Tai also replied with a sad face.

When Master Sima heard this, his face darkened slightly, and his brows were tightened immediately: "So, it is difficult for our Great Wei to expand outward from the two directions of west and south? Gongxiu (Zhuge Dan's word is "Public holiday"), how is the situation on your side? Isn't it also a stalemate?"

Zhuge Dan, who was nearly fifty years old, had a well-maintained face like a crown jade and beard like lacquer. He looked as if he had just turned forty.He stroked his black beard, and replied ponderingly: "Hearing what Brother Deng and Brother Zhou said, I feel that the situation here in Xuyang and Yangzhou seems to be much easier than that in Yongliang and Jingchu. .Master Li, do you think so? You are eloquent, so let's have a good talk with Sima Jun."

Li Fu nodded: "What Mr. Zhuge said is very true. The puppet Wu does not have any particularly powerful veterans to guard the east wing of our Great Wei. The so-called 'a raging army, a raging nest', we Xuyang Erzhou naturally The pressure is not great. But they have the most troops stationed here. If the Great Wei wants to wedge into the puppet Wu from the eastern front, it must be fully prepared for a tough battle. The deployment and delivery of troops, food and grass must be timely In place!"

"Oh? According to you, the weak point of the puppet Wu is in the east wing?" After hearing this, Master Sima's eyes shone brightly. Set in Xuyang Erzhou!"

"Mr. Sima, Mr. Li said just now that there is no shortage of gaps in the east wing area, but the battle line is too long and the roads are bumpy. The smooth distribution and transportation of troops, food and grass is a big problem!" Zhuge Dan reminded Master Sima, " If we don't solve this problem in advance, even if we spread the battlefield in Xuyang and Yangzhou, we may not be able to take advantage of it!"

"Then, how should we solve this big problem?" Master Sima wrinkled his eyebrows and thought hard, "Just recruit more laborers from Youzhou, Jizhou, Qingzhou and other places to come to support..."

"Sima Jun, in Deng's opinion, there is no need to adopt such a waste of money and money." Deng Ai interjected at this time and said, "Zhuge Jun, Mr. Li, you two are no wonder, Deng always likes to figure out the world's four directions. The advantages and disadvantages of the Xingsheng Fortress have been deeply studied in the area around your east wing in recent years. Deng foolishly thought that the fields in the two prefectures of Xuyang and Yangzhou are not rich enough to make the best use of the land, and it is appropriate to open a canal to divert water for irrigation, so as to greatly promote the army. , and the way of water transportation can be said to serve multiple purposes. At the same time, it can also widen the Yingshui River, Dazhi along the north and south banks of the Yingshui River, and then build two Guangcao Canals and Baichi Canals to divert water from the Yellow River upwards. The Tonghuai and Yingzhiliu, starting from Gyeonggi in the west and ending in Shouchun in the east, can sail all the way down the river! In this way, our Great Wei’s deployment of troops, food and grass to Huainan will be completely smooth..."

"High! High! Really high!" Hearing this, Zhuge Dan couldn't help staring at Deng Ai with wide eyes, and sighed, "I've heard that Deng Jun is smart, studious, and talented, and after listening to advice today, he really deserves his reputation! "

Li Fu also twitched his beard and praised with a smile: "Once Mr. Deng comes out with this strategy, Huainan's military logistics support will no longer have to worry about! As long as the three waterways of the Yellow River, Yingshui River, and Huaihe River are connected, our army will no longer have to fight in Huainan." Don't worry about military power, food supply is not in place!"

Master Sima also smiled when he heard it, rubbed his palms, and said excitedly: "General Deng Ai, since you came up with such a clever plan, it's up to you to carry it through to the end! That's it! If there is a big battle, the master will tell my father to temporarily transfer you to Shouchun as the Sima of Taifu's army, and will be in charge of the implementation of the strategy of "connecting the three rivers, and the army on both sides" of the Yellow River, Yingshui River, and Huaihe River!"

When Deng Ai heard the words, he didn't make a fuss, stood up straight with a "swipe", and answered with cupped hands: "Deng, but at the command of Master Tai Tuo and Sima Jun, there is absolutely nothing else to say."

At this moment, Liang Ji said intentionally or unintentionally from the side: "Sima Jun, will the current governor of Zhendong, Wang Ling, support General Deng in this task at Shouchun? Will he hinder General Deng from it?" ? He has always been famous for his narrow-mindedness and stubbornness... Zhuge Jun, Mr. Li, what do you think?"

"Hmm... Mr. Liang is really worried." Li Fu squinted his sharp eyes slightly, slowly twisting the roots under his chin, and said quietly, "However, after all, Wang Ling is still the governor of the east of the town! Why doesn't he want to have unimpeded waterways and unimpeded food roads in his own military jurisdiction? This will also be of great benefit to his future attempts to make meritorious service in war! In Li's opinion, the strategy of "connecting the three rivers, and the military settlements on both sides" is not good for Wang Ling. In other words, it can be regarded as a matter of public and private convenience, he will not be too disruptive in this matter. Sima Jun, General Deng, you can do it freely!"

After hearing this, Master Sima raised his thick eyebrows, pressed his right hand on the scabbard around his waist, and said solemnly: "Even if he intends to restrict and make trouble, I am not afraid. If he dares to interfere with the public for personal reasons, I will report it to you." The Taiwei and my father will deal with him by military law and punish him severely!"

Deng Ai also solemnly expressed his position to Master Sima: "Don't worry, Mr. Sima, when Deng arrives in Huainan, he promises to successfully complete this important task."

After discussing the great plan to destroy Wu and destroy Shu, Master Sima relaxed his mood, took a sip of tea, and said politely: "Besides, Master has an important matter to ask the four brothers here. Everyone knows, Qin Lang, the former Xiaoqi general, fell into the enemy's trick and lost more than 3000 imperial knights when he fought against Zhuge Liang of the puppet Shu in Wuzhangyuan during the Qinglong period. At present, there is a shortage of troops in the Xiaoqi battalion of the Imperial Army. The troops in Sifangzhou Town were selected to enrich the Xiaoqi Battalion. After the four brothers returned, they each selected two to 3000 loyal and reliable cavalry soldiers under their command, and prepared a roster to submit to the Taiwei Mansion. The division is here Just transfer all the people by name to the Buxiao riding camp. What do you think of the four brothers?"
