"Reporting to Your Majesty, I think what the Grand Master said is justified. Soochow has the dangers of the Three Rivers, the benefits of water warfare, and hundreds of thousands of tigers and tigers. It is indeed not to be taken lightly!"

Sima Yi came out from the end of the line, saluted respectfully, and answered unhurriedly, as if everything was expected!

"Oh, so Zhongda also thinks it's time to cancel the Southern Expedition?"

"No, at that time, at this time, I think Dongwu should not be underestimated, and I think Dongwu can be crusaded!"

"These words are interesting, Aiqing tell me carefully!"

"According to the order!"

…………

"In the ninth year of Jian'an, Sun Quan was only 25 years old. After inheriting the foundation of his father and brother, he worked hard and forged ahead.

At that time, he had Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Zhang Zhao and others as loyal assistants inside him, and Liu Xuande as an ally outside him, so although his strength was weak, he occupied the right time, the right place, and the harmony of people!

Emperor Taizu Wu sent his troops to the south, and committed several major taboos such as underestimating the enemy, being unaccustomed to water and soil, and not being familiar with water warfare. This is why Wulin was defeated. He had to burn the warship and lead his troops back to the Central Plains!

Fifteen years have passed, and great changes have taken place in climate, location, and harmony of people. Now Sun Quan is obsessed with cultivating immortals, ignoring government affairs, and has lost his spirit of forging ahead.

Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Zhang Zhao and other important ministers also died of illness one after another. Although Lu Xun was quite talented, he was too young after all. What's more, what's the use of a single tree when the building is about to collapse?

Because of the ownership of Jingzhou, there are many disputes between Eastern Wu and Western Shu, and the alliance no longer exists. Therefore, when Eastern Wu is in trouble, Western Shu may not send troops to rescue, not to mention that Zhuge Kongming failed in the Northern Expedition repeatedly, and his national power was exhausted. Even if you want to save him, you will be powerless!

And my Great Wei has cultivated and lived for many years, the national power is far above Western Shu and Eastern Wu, and the ruler is wise, the ministers are wise, and the soldiers use their lives. Now I have a god-given opportunity, so your majesty can go south, and our army will undoubtedly win!

However, what I said was just talking on paper, how to arrange troops and fight in the river depends on His Majesty's "strategies"! "

Sima Yi made a long speech, his words were clear and penetrating, and he displayed extremely high military and political talents. The anti-war faction fell silent after hearing this, while the main combat faction was elated!

Cao Pi listened most attentively, especially the last sentence. Sima Yi was implying that if he wanted to destroy Wu smoothly, he needed a strategist in the army, and who in the Manchu Dynasty had this ability?

Of course Sima Yi is none other than Sima Yi, but how can a small admonishing doctor participate in military and state affairs, unless he is promoted to an official position and given a certain amount of military power!

"Haha, what Zhongmou said is enough to clear my doubts. I will make you a military adviser to sacrifice wine, and I will accompany you to consult on military affairs!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

"Preach my will, the army will go out to conquer Jiangdong, and you will never return!"

"Long live!--Long live!"

Cao Pi has suppressed Sima Yi for many years, and has been refusing to grant real power. Now, in order to realize his ambition, he finally released this 'Tiger'!

From the fifth year of Huangchu to the second day of February, Cao Pi swore an oath to march in Luoyang, led an army of 50 to crusade against Soochow, and issued a message to the world. The soldiers and civilians were all shocked!

On the tenth day of February, the army entered the city of Xuchang. After two days of recuperation, they continued to go south, and divided the troops into four teams, preparing to attack Soochow from different directions!

On February 20th, Cao Pi personally led [-] troops and marched into the territory of Lujiang County.

On the same day, Sun Quan came to the stage to pay homage to the commander-in-chief, personally awarded the governor-Lu Xun the sword, and ordered him to command Jiangdong Shui and Lu Dajun 20, and went north to fight against the invasion of Cao Wei. The six counties in Jiangdong also mobilized for war.

Chapter 1685 Victory!

The foundation of the State of Wu is the six prefectures on the east of the Yangtze River, among which the five prefectures of Kuaiji, Jian'an, Wu, Yuzhang, and Luling are all in the south of the Yangtze River. Only Lujiang County is located on the north bank of the Yangtze River, bordering on the three prefectures of Jing, Yu, and Xu. The strategic location is very important. Because the Wu army's northern expedition, or the Wei army's southward march, must use Lujiang County as the pedal!

In the fourth year of Jian'an, Xiao Yi defeated the little overlord, Sun Ce, and led his army to sweep across Huainan. He could have easily captured Lujiang County, but he ordered to stop the attack and let it remain in the hands of the Jiangdong Army. This has two purposes:

One: The Yangtze River traverses the east and west, and it is difficult to communicate between the north and the south. Leaving Lujiang County as a "bridge" can strengthen cultural exchanges between the south and the north. It must be known that the division of land is not terrible, but the division of people's hearts is the most terrible!

It is precisely because of the existence of Lujiang County that spirits, paper, books, and silk in the Central Plains can continue to circulate in the south of the Yangtze River, and the native products of the south of the Yangtze River can also go north. Over time, the people in the south of the Yangtze River have a concept. But we will always be family!

Second, the northerners are not used to water warfare. If they compete with the Wuyue people on the Yangtze River, they will use their own weaknesses to fight against their strengths. Nine times out of ten they will lose the battle!

It is best to use Lujiang County as a bait to attract the main force of the Wu army to go north, and annihilate them in a decisive battle on land.

It's a pity that Xiao Yi's good intentions were not understood by Cao Pi and others. After Cao Jun entered Huainan, he immediately launched an attack on Lujiang County. In less than a month, even Keyangquan, Anfeng, Liu'an, Longshu More than a dozen cities, successive battles and victories, are unstoppable!

However, the Wu army did not make a fierce resistance, abandoned the city, and shrank its troops. Under the leadership of Lujiang prefect Lu Fan, all of them retreated to the south bank of the Yangtze River, stationed in Chaisangshui and Lu Daying, and monitored Jiangbei's every move!

On the eighth day of April, the Wei army conquered Shucheng, the prefecture, and captured the entire territory of Lujiang County five days later.

On April [-]th, Cao Jun set up a big camp in Jiangbei, with Guanying City as the command center, connecting east and west for more than [-] miles. Every day, he built warships and drilled water troops. The sound of rumbling battle drums was heard dozens of miles away. , Make a big move across the river!

…………

"Your Majesty took over the entire Lujiang County in just over two months. The Wu army fled in anticipation, not daring to fight against Tianwei. It is just around the corner to flatten Jiangdong!"

"Since ancient times, there have been very few emperors who have conquered in person, but Your Majesty has come to the battlefield in person, and the army has won consecutive battles. This kind of martial arts is far better than Qin Huang and Han Wu. He can be called the most heroic king in ancient and modern times! "

……

"It's just a small victory, don't get carried away with complacency. I and all the ministers still need to make persistent efforts to conquer Jiangdong as soon as possible and capture Sun Quan alive. At that time, I will hold a feast in Luoyang, treat Bi Yaner well, and personally pour wine for him to persuade him to drink, haha !"

The victory of the Nanzheng Banner was to be celebrated. Cao Pi set up a feast in Guanying City - Xinjian Palace, and had a victory drink with civil and military officials. The soldiers, big and small, also gave wine and meat.

At the celebration banquet, some courtiers who were proficient in "Liu Xu Jing" and "Passing Horse Biography" raised their glasses to toast frequently.

Cao Pi said a few words of humility, but his heart was already full of joy, and his arrogance was beyond words. The recent battles also proved that the morale of Wu Jun was low and he had no fighting spirit. He was no longer the tiger and wolf army he used to be!

According to this speed, it is estimated that before late autumn, Cao Jun will be able to cross the Yangtze River and take all the six counties in Jiangdong!

And then make persistent efforts, send his master up the river to destroy Shu, and capture Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang alive. In this way, there are two thirds in the world, and I don't have to be afraid of Xiao Yi. Maybe the other party will choose to surrender, and take the initiative to pay homage to him in Luoyang City, and then take The little queen was sent to the palace...

Thinking of this, Cao Pi couldn't help being elated, and drank several glasses of fine wine in a row, imagining how he would greet the little queen and what to say when the little queen entered the palace, so as not to lose the majesty of the emperor, but also to express his deep love Heart!

In fact, Cao Pi secretly wrote the imperial edict to enshrine the little queen as the empress, stamped it with the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, and hid it in his pillow. He was afraid of Xiao Yi's killing power, so he dared not promulgate it formally. , After swallowing Wu and destroying Shu, this edict should come out!

"Report to Your Majesty, Sun Quan sent Zhuge Jin as an envoy to come across the river by boat and is waiting outside the gate of the palace. Will Your Majesty summon you?"

"Oh, Bi Yan'er sent someone here, I'm afraid they are here to ask for peace, let him in!"

"Your Majesty has a decree to call the envoys of the Wu Kingdom to have an audience!"

……

During the banquet, a servant reported that Wu Guo sent an envoy. Cao Pi rolled his eyes a few times, with a treacherous smile on his face, and raised his hand to signal the suspension of singing and dancing!

Then he drank a few cups of fine wine and poured a little on himself, the imperial belt was untied, the dragon robe was messed up, his body leaned on the seat, and he made a half-drunk gesture of complacency, and then he ordered to summon the envoy!

"Foreign Minister Zhuge Ziyu, by the order of my family Wu Wang Qiansui, come here to meet His Majesty the Emperor of Wei!"

"Be flat, give a seat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

A moment later, a middle-aged man walked in, knelt down and saluted respectfully. This man was slender and had a longer face, which could easily be reminiscent of some kind of long-eared animal. He was Zhuge Jin, the envoy of Wu Kingdom. !
