The Three Kingdoms of the Widow

Chapter 56 (2) Zhuge Zhouyu contends for Nanjun, Sima Cao Pi serves as Xudu (1)

Zhou Yu's Chibi fire gave him the eternal reputation of "Jiangdong arsonist".

But the significance of this conflagration does not stop there.

Lu Meng lamented the fierceness of the wind and fire, and secretly became wary of the fire thing in his heart—the first thing he would guard against in the future would be the fire.

Lu Xun admired the fire and Zhou Yu who directed the fire, and he also established his special affection for fire. By the way, he was also grateful to Sun Quan, who sent him to Zhou Yu in the spring breeze.Lu Xun was moved and thought: My lord is so kind to me, he sent me here to study because he had high hopes for me, and he didn't even care about my background from being not a direct descendant of the Lu family. This is to cultivate me, I must study hard every day , Live up to the great trust placed in me by the people of the motherland and the lord.

No one came to tell Lu Xun that you think too much about your child. In fact, Sun Quan also thinks a lot. How about saying that being a leader is an art? At least when he sent Lu Xun here, it was indeed a warm spring breeze: Little Lu , here is an opportunity for further study, I will send you to the camp of the Chaisang Navy.What?Don't you know Zhou Gongjin?It doesn't matter, your father doesn't know him either, what I said is absolutely true, your father really doesn't know Zhou Gongjin.

Cao Cao didn't panic too much amidst the fireworks all over the sky—they were real smoke and real fire—but his subordinates were much more panicked than him. They either ran for their lives in panic, or guarded him to escape in panic.

Cao Cao just suddenly realized that something was wrong. His team was not like this. He suddenly felt that he had returned to the city of Wancheng. It was so easy to get a breather that I remembered something.

"My lord is going to Wancheng, don't get close to women."

"Qing is jealous of all the girls? With Qing at your side, you alone order all the girls to retreat."

The person opposite rolled his eyes indecently: "My lord has so many harems, can I be jealous of each one of them?"

Yes, when Guo Jia was around, he would never panic.Even in the Battle of Guandu, when everyone felt that robbing grain or not looting grain would be a loser, at least Guo Jia was calm. Guo Jia was determined to rob grain and always followed Cao Cao.Cao Cao thought that even if he lost that time, he would probably not hate Guo Jia, her calmness was enough to save everything.Later, during the Northern Expedition to Wuhuan, it was the same when we bid farewell to Yizhou. Guo Jia calmly told Cao Cao: You will encounter xxxx, which is the worst situation, but you can’t back down. If you want xxxx, there will naturally be Method.

The worst idea is better than no idea.

In fact, today's matter is far from being out of ideas. Jia Xu did not agree to attack Jiangdong from the very beginning, and Xun You was also worried about the fire attack when the big ship chained chains. Cao Cao's advisers were as good and dedicated as ever.

But why didn't I listen to it?What is wrong?Cao Cao thought.

In fact, he missed him, Cao Ren Lejin and Xu Huang couldn't stand it anymore, they directly dragged Cao Cao back.

Cao Cao, who was pulled back by his general, looked at the flames flying all over the sky, and heard the sound of crackling and carbonizing the wood and the crackling sound of the mast breaking, and his mind slipped to another matter: "Now that China has leveled off, the southern lands know that it is difficult. It can show the Wan and Ye and move lightly between them, so as to conceal their surprise."

This is what Xun Yu said before he left for the expedition.He thought it was so good that he even arranged the marching route, and Xun Yu was indeed his ovary.But now...the marching route is good, but the premise of everything is that "now that China has been leveled, the southern land knows that it is difficult."

This major premise is the foundation of everything. Does Nantu really know that he is trapped?

Cao Cao blinked his eyes and wondered how many things were wrong.

Therefore, those generals who had already changed the dragging to "carrying" Cao Cao in order to easily heard this sentence inexplicably:

"Guo Fengxiao is here, don't let him come here alone."

In the White Horse Temple in Luoyang, the wooden fish in Nu Xin's hand rang heavily for the first time.

Chibi is the climax of the Sun-Liu Alliance. Unfortunately, the novel of the Sun-Liu Alliance seems to be cutting corners and ends directly at the climax.If nothing else, just look at Zhao Yun.

That's what Zhuge Liang thought when he was tying his hair in the cabin, and Zhao Yun was beside her excitedly and chatteringly asking what they should do next.

"Isn't it already agreed what to do?"

Zhao Yun was a bit stuck. Zhuge Liang had made a plan early in the morning, but the content of what he said could be summed up in one sentence: follow Cao Cao's defeated army to scare them, and grab what they left behind and the people left behind.

Meow, isn't this just picking up trash?

Zhuge Liang was a little annoyed when he heard what Zhao Yun said: "Zhao Xiaoyun, don't you want me to explain my words more clearly? You should know what I mean after being a general for so long!"

"I know! We lack everything now, so we need everything, and because we lack everything, we can't fight, because we can't afford to lose!"

"It's more than half true," Zhuge Liang said after washing up, stood up, and shook the feather fan in his hand, "Another reason is that everyone in the world knows that Senior Sister Zhou is leading the lead in this battle, and we can't steal the limelight from the protagonist."

"Didn't you borrow the wind for Senior Sister Zhou?"

Zhuge Liang paused for a moment: "Hey, why don't you say that I have a very good heart, 'When it's over, brush off your clothes and hide your merits and fame'." After speaking, he symbolically gestured with a fan.

Zhao Yun pouted.

Zhuge Liang went back to Xiakou to meet Liu Bei, and raised his account as soon as they met. Liu Bei could not send troops to pick up the trash by himself. As a veteran leader of troops and an escape artist, he probably knew the route of Cao Cao's evacuation.But there is one place where he is not sure.

Zhuge Liang even arranged for people to ambush on the route before Cao Cao retreated into Nanjun, deliberately picking up some inconspicuous trails, and reserved good places for ambushes in an upright manner. Zhou Yu will definitely send people to those places. of.If you don't know how to avoid it, what's the matter, do you want the Sun and Liu families to fight first to occupy the seat?

But when the feather fan was pointing to Huarong Road, Zhuge Liang retracted the extended fan, and Liu Bei with bright eyes stretched out his hand to draw this place, so he also retracted.

"Cao Cao will definitely go here." Zhuge Liang's voice was so low that none of the generals could hear him.

"That's why I want to wait for Kong Ming to come back to discuss." Liu Bei's words did not match the horse's mouth.

Zhuge Liang glanced at Guan Yu, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is not stingy here.

Zhuge Liang looked back at the map again.

"All generals must carefully implement the military orders, and don't be negligent!"

"Follow the order!"

"Scatter accounts!"

Even if he knew the history, he could only follow the footsteps of history and watched Cao Cao retreat into Nanjun slowly but not smoothly.Mr. History seems to know the unwillingness and helplessness of human beings, so he used his conspiracy to ruthlessly slap the pretentious human beings.

Zhuge had this illusion.She knew that she had to let Cao Cao go, because there was one in a thousand miles, and Cao Cao couldn't die by her own hands.The north cannot be chaotic, the Jiangdong cannot be big, and the chaos cannot allow all parties to point their fingers at him. If Cao Cao is really dead, he must let those people seek revenge from Sun Quan. Maybe Liu Bei can use his status as the emperor's uncle and hold the emperor hostage Those people jointly crusade against the traitor Sun Quan who killed the prime minister of the Han Dynasty.

So Hua Rongdao didn't send any people at all, and had to be more thorough in being a human being.

But Nanjun... History can play Yangmou people in a fair and aboveboard manner, and Nanjun's Yangmou is obvious-a battle must be fought here.Zhuge Liang thinks Mr. History, you don't mind if I add the only dark color in everyone's conspiracy.

By the way, the prefect of Nanjun has a daughter named Guo Zhao or Guo Xu. This is not the point. The point is that she must be called Queen Guo.

Zhuge Liang was a little surprised that he still had time to think about these gossips at this time.

Cao Cao didn't stay in Nanjun for a long time, he went back to Xudu, this time he lost so badly, he needs to recover his vitality, and also needs to strengthen the rear, he should go shopping a few more times in the early court, what happened to the emperor's daughters It's time to take care... In short, there are many things.

He left Cao Ren to guard Nanjun, and he didn't have any tricks to teach him. Cao Ren only got a word from him: keep it as long as you can.

In other words: Anyway, in the end it is untenable.

Neither Liu Bei nor Sun Quan will allow him to hold on. What's the point of fighting the Battle of Chibi if you can't expand your territory?

The geographical location of Nanjun is very important. It is not only the gateway to defend Jingzhou, but also connects Bashu and Yizhou. It also controls the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River. It has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.

More importantly, if you win Nanjun, you will win Jingzhou. If you win Jingzhou, there will be a natural buffer zone with Cao Cao's forces; if you can't win Nanjun, then Jiangdong will be exposed to the threat of Cao Cao. , the Yangtze River natural danger?Sorry, they are on the other side of you, there are some in the east of the river, and there are also in the north.

At the beginning, Zhou Yu negotiated with Zhuge Liang about the proportion of the spoils—oh, sorry, when it was time for the sphere of influence, Zhou Yu gave Zhuge Liang the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River: "Little pig, give the four counties of Lingling, Changsha, Wuling, Guiyang, to the uncle, you just send them to the emperor." If people go, I will never interfere, if things go wrong, I can send people to help appropriately."

Zhuge Liang sat on the cushion, looked at the map and refused: "Sister, add another Nanjun."

Zhou Yu smiled and shook his head, how could such a place be offered with both hands.

"Senior sister, negotiating, there are always back and forth, I ask the price, you can pay back the money on the spot."

"There's nothing to pay back."

"The Yicheng area in Xiangyang can be left to Soochow."

Zhou Yu looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "You're fucking kidding me": "The north of Nanjun is so close to Cao Cao, what's the use of that place if I want it, and it can't be connected with other cities."

"Then I will take a step back. Most of Nanjun belongs to Soochow, and Jiangbei belongs to you, but Jiangnan will be left to the emperor."

Zhou Yu also wondered if Zhuge Liang's brain was broken: "Little pig, the place in Jiangxia where Liu Shijun is staying now belongs to us. So you still want to talk about Nanjun with me? Most of Nanjun is in the south of the Yangtze River, and this part originally belonged to Soochow."

"Only the Jiangnan part of Jiangxia belongs to Dongwu, and Shangchang in the north does not belong to Dongwu." Zhuge Liang said confidently, ignoring the fact that Liu Bei was not in Shangchang at this time.

"Whatever you say, I won't give up Nanjun. There are already quite a few of the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River. Before, Liu Shijun didn't even have a place to stand."

Zhuge Liang chuckled lightly: "Senior sister, if you have the opportunity to persuade Xianjing Shenggong, maybe he will listen to what you say about contentment and happiness."

Zhuge Liang's logic seems incomprehensible but logical: If an ordinary person went from having nothing to occupying four counties, he would of course be overjoyed, because he had a low position on himself; but Zhou Yu was talking about Liu Bei, whose heart In fact, I feel that the whole world is my uncle, how could I be satisfied before this little favor?

"If you want to continue to play tricks, please feel free." Zhou Yu didn't plan to continue pestering, she planned to go back to the dormitory.

"Senior Sister, stop." Zhuge Liang said behind Zhou Yu. "Senior Sister, the hearts of the people are not enough to swallow the elephant. You will not go well when you attack Nanjun. Cao Ren is also a battle-tested general. As long as you stick to Nanjun for a year, you may not be able to defeat it. You need my help. Today you rejected my plan to attack the South Bank." Request, in the future you will not even be able to defend the part of Jiangbei; today you rejected my request to add an additional South County, in the future you will even join Jingzhou."

"Are you threatening me? It's a pity that it doesn't work for me." Zhou Yu no longer used a gentle attitude when facing Zhuge Liang who also persevered in Nanjun. She said coldly, "Nanjun belongs to Soochow. I just don't give it to you. Can you What can I do?"

Zhuge Liang stood up: "What can be done, what can't be done. Sister, if this is the case, please prepare more gold sore medicine."

Zhou Yu didn't have time to think carefully about Zhuge Liang's last words. Of course, she listened to the words about golden sore medicine. According to history, she would be injured. She knew this long ago.

After Zhuge Liang left, he returned to Jiangxia and organized manpower and material resources to consolidate the Jiangxia area. Anyway, this is also a part of Nanjun, although it is small.At the same time, he sent people to seize the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River.In order to cooperate with Zhou Yu's military operation to seize Nanjun, Zhuge Liang sent Guan Yu to attack Jingcheng, intending to cut off the way of Cao Jun's return to the north.

So Zhuge Liang went straight to see Sun Quan and talked about the current situation and our tasks. The core sentence is: insufficient troops, give people.

Since Zhou Yu also mentioned before that since the two companies formed an alliance, they could send troops to each other to assist each other. Sun Quan hesitated again and again, and gave 2000 people. Zhuge Liang was also unambiguous. The general assists Zhou Dudu to go.

Then Zhuge Liang brought up the fact that the two companies had confessed to each other.After much deliberation, Sun Quan felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he agreed, so Sun Quan declared that Liu Qi was the shepherd of Jingzhou, and Liu Bei represented Zhou Yunan County as the prefect.

When Zhuge Liang suggested this, Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang in surprise: "Why not Cheng Pu?"

Zhao Yun next to him was even more surprised: "Why is it Cheng Pu and not Zhou Yu? Shouldn't it be Zhou Yu?"

"Is there anyone in the world who doesn't know Jianwei Zhonglang will be the governor of Zhou?" Zhuge Liang deliberately put the two contradictory positions together.Then he turned to look at Liu Bei: "My lord, do you still want Nanjun?"

Liu Bei stopped talking, bowed his head and scribbled on the form.

Is Nanjun so easy to fight?

Not to mention anything else, the military strength is not directly proportional to others.

The defenders of Nanjun, plus the Cao army in the surrounding small cities who are ready to assist at any time, add up to at least 6 people.As for the generals who commanded these 6 people, five of them were well-known and experienced.

What about Zhou Yu?When fighting Chibi, it was only 2 yuan, and now it is only a little more than [-] yuan. Sun Quan even transferred Han Dang away.

Isn't there Liu Bei?

Needless to say, Liu Bei's poor people?

So no matter from which angle you look at it, Nanjun is a tough nut to crack.

At the military meeting before the war, the generals quarreled over how to attack Nanjun.

Zhou Yu finally adopted Gan Ning's suggestion: take Yiling first, and lure Cao Ren to divide his troops to rescue;

After Zhuge Liang heard that Zhou Yu had sent Gan Ning to attack Yiling, he understood everything: Strategically, this was a reverse version of the War of Liberation.From focused offense to full-scale offense.Tactics are exactly the same as in the War of Liberation, encircle the points to fight for aid, divide and conquer, concentrate superior forces to annihilate the enemy's vital forces, and finally force the enemy into an isolated city and trap the opponent to death.

So Zhuge Liang decisively asked Liu Bei and Guan Yu to go to Linju and Jingyang to prepare for blocking Cao Ren's return to the north.The letter she wrote to Sun Quan and Zhou Yu was of course so aboveboard. In fact, she had a good discussion with Liu Bei: You don’t need to take it too seriously to block the retreat. Don’t chase after the poor. Take the opportunity to consolidate Linju, Jingyang and other places. The ground is the key.

Zhang Fei wrote to say that Zhou Yu was very polite to him, but basically he was not needed. Zhuge Liang put the letter aside in disapproval. Anyway, this was something that had been expected a long time ago. Mr. Zhang, you just need to do the things you explained.But Zhao Yun's letter is more important.
