Chapter 1788: Sima Yi's situation
Cao Cao went to pay homage to Liu Yu, but Lu Xun didn't know that Lu Xun was outside the door. After all, Cao Cao wrote the memorial in the mansion. Lu Su came out after Cao Cao, which made Lu Xun a little confused.
Lu Su knew that Lu Xun was waiting for him, so he glanced at Lu Xun deeply.
Lu Xun's heart was thrilled. He seemed to have guessed something.
Lu Xun hurriedly saluted Cao Cao, Cao Cao nodded and then took Lu Su away.
Cao Cao and Lu Su walked away, and Lu Xun felt helpless.
"It seems that Your Majesty has seen my plan. Hi, the Eastern Wu Shilin will be in trouble in the future." Lu Xun could guess from the Lu Su incident that Liu Yu's suppression of the Eastern Wu scholars.
Even so, Lu Xun was not discouraged. He was still young and had time and opportunity to fight. One day, Lu Xun would make Liu Yu change his views on the scholars of the Eastern Wu.
Lu Xun firmly stood firm in his heart and left here with a determined expression.
But no one knew that after leaving one after another, Li Guicai flashed out of the gate. A person walked out of Li Gui and immediately followed Lu Xun.
Only then did Li Gui return to Liu Yu's side.
"Are you sent out?" Liu Yu closed his eyes and asked.
Li Gui said honestly: "Your Majesty, I have made arrangements."
Liu Yu opened his eyes and reminded: "Remember, when Lu Xun and anyone do anything they do every day, they must send someone to record it."
This is Li Gui's job, so he certainly won't neglect it.
Liu Yu wanted to promote Lu Xun to the top, but he couldn't let Lu Xun run too fast and developed ambitions, which led to exceeding Liu Yu's control range.
Preparing for the future and making arrangements in advance has always been Liu Yu's operation.
"Your Majesty, I am very confused. If your Majesty is not satisfied, I will kill you directly. Why do you have to do this? I think Lu Boyan is a young man, very good." Li Gui expressed his thoughts.
Liu Yu glared at Li Gui, scaring Li Gui to shrink his head.
"Go down!" Liu Yu knew that Li Gui was still not capable enough in some intelligence.
It seems that Li Gui and Jia Xu have been studying for a lot of time, but why have they not made any progress at all?
Li Gui knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he applied oil to the soles of his feet and quickly left Liu Yu's room.
When there was no one around, Liu Yu took a deep breath and relaxed.
Liu Yu lay on the bed a little weakly. He thought that this time, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu could be captured or killed, and the Han Dynasty would be the last step away from unification. Who knew that God would not appreciate his face, but he ran away for Sun Ce and Zhou Yu. This was also caused by Liu Yu's incomplete arrangement.
"I hope I can end the war in Eastern Wu as soon as possible." Liu Yu closed his eyes and fell asleep in a short while.
In a camp in Lingyang City, Cao Cao summoned all his subordinates in the army and introduced Lu Su to them.
"From today on, Zijing will be the cavalry commander under the command of this Grand Marshal. We must get along well in the future and work together for the Han Dynasty." Cao Cao pushed Lu Su out.
Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others were all surprised by Lu Su's arrival.
Lu Su bowed to everyone very softly and said, "Sir, the officials are polite."
Lu Su's appearance is honest and gives people the feeling that he is an honest person, and his attitude is very good, which makes people feel good. But after experiencing so much, everyone under Cao Cao's command, except for Cao Zhang, who has little ink, is almost smart. They absolutely believe that Lu Su's honest and honest appearance has a lively heart.
Isn’t there a saying that the more honest a person looks, the less reliable he is.
Lu Su really wanted to get along well with Guo Jia and the others from the bottom of his heart.
But he suffered a loss in his appearance.
Fortunately, Guo Jia took the lead in showing kindness to Lu Su.
Guo Jia smiled at Lu Su and said, "Zijing, I didn't expect that you and I were all in their own hands before, and they met each other in the same seat in the end. How wonderful is life!"
Lu Su was a little embarrassed, and the facts were indeed as Guo Jia said.
However, with Guo Jia's words, others also talked to Lu Su. Gradually, Lu Su also integrated into the small group under Cao Cao's command.
It’s just that others seem to be harmonious, but it’s unknown whether this is the case in the mainland.
After that, Guo Jia and Xun Yu quietly asked Cao Cao about Lu Su. Cao Cao forced Liu Yu to put Lu Su on his side and told him that he could not describe his feelings. Liu Yu's actions were really elusive.
Anyway, things have come to this point, and it is useless to say more. Cao Cao immediately took out the memorial of Liu Yu's instructions and arranged the personnel to make arrangements.
The entire Liu Jun's actions were carried out in full swing again.
The first thing was to instruct Sima Yi to destroy the naval army of the Eastern Wu. The second thing was to send a letter to Ma Chao and Pang Tong, asking them to command the troops south to Jiaozhou, so that Jiaozhou would not dare to move around.
The third thing was to send death-death men to Jiaozhou and communicate with Shixie to kill Sun Quan and Sun Yi.
The most important thing is that the army is divided into two marches. But we can only make arrangements after the entire army is adjusted.
In fact, Cao Cao didn't need to send someone to Sima Yi. Sima Yi had been fighting with the Eastern Wu naval army for several rounds.
Sima Yi led the navy and used tactics similar to wolves to attack the Eastern Wu navy once, and the combat power of the Eastern Wu navy was weakened.
Immediately afterwards, Sima Yi continued to take the initiative to expand his advantage. Wankou Port was a very important port for Liu's army and a necessary place for the Eastern Wu to defend against Liu's army entering the Eastern Wu. The Liu's naval army took the initiative to attack, and the Eastern Wu naval army had to come out to fight.
After fighting back and forth several times, both sides were injured. Why did the navy troops on both sides fight for so long?
When the Liu army won the battle, they had to rush over directly, but the Eastern Wu navy retreated immediately and used a powerful crossbow to fight back.
The Eastern Wu naval army had the advantage, so the Liu army rushed to Wankou Port. There were trenchers with a large attack range, which could attack the Eastern Wu naval warships on the river. After Cao Ren occupied Wankou, in order to strengthen the defense of Wankou, the craftsmen in the army tried their best to build many trenchers.
These are simple catapults, and the attack is not accurate, but the number is better. If all of them are activated, the Eastern Wu navy should pay attention to it if you want to get close.
Chen Wu, the chief general of the Eastern Wu naval army, was very anxious. He had received news from the rear that Emperor Shenwu had personally led a large army to the territory of Eastern Wu. Countless counties were taken down by Liu Yu, and Sun Ce and Zhou Yu joined forces to lead the army to the destination.
When the relevant information arrived here, Chen Wu could no longer receive Sun Ce's orders. So Chen Wu's heart was suspended because he felt that Sun Ce was very likely to be defeated.
Why did Chen Wu think?
Compared with the Eastern Wu and the Shenwu court, Eastern Wu is a weak person. If Eastern Wu wins, then Sun Ce will definitely advertise the world and is afraid that others will not know. Only when he is defeated and Sun Ce flees, Chen Wu did not receive Sun Ce's order.
There are many other messy rumors. In order to stabilize the morale of the army, Chen Wu kept promising that Sun Ce would soon defeat Liu Yu and that as long as he persisted, he would win.
The rumors were not from Liu's army, but rumors arising from the Eastern Wu army. Wars are cruel, and the test is not only combat effectiveness, but more of patience. The Eastern Wu navy has always occupied the top position of the Yangtze River naval army, and its strength is superior to other princes. Once upon a time, the Eastern Wu navy could arrogantly express that all the princes in the world have arrived, and the Eastern Wu navy dared to fight and even defeat the other party. But the situation is different now. After being undermined by Sima Yi last time,
The strength of the Eastern Wu navy, which was lying in Poyang Lake, was greatly weakened. After several battles, the soldiers of the Eastern Wu navy were frightened to find that the warships on their side were decreasing and their strength was constantly weakening, while the number of warships of the Liu navy was increasing. Of course, the Liu navy did not have any magic tricks that could make them increase warships out of thin air, but Sima Yi ordered all warships in Jingzhou to come to support, and shipyards in various places worked overtime to build ships. Almost every day, warships would descend along the river to Wankou Port.
The soldiers of the Eastern Wu naval army felt a danger and shrouded them. If this battle continues, their naval army will definitely be exhausted by Liu's army.
The Eastern Wu navy, who had crushed others for a long time, was in danger of being destroyed. The Eastern Wu navy soldiers began to panic, and Chen Wu ordered all the navy soldiers not to retreat, so they were under even greater pressure and began to think about it. The most serious rumor was that Chen Wu planned to sell all the Eastern Wu navy soldiers as the letter of surrender to the Shenwu court.
Chen Wu had not noticed the seriousness of the problem at first, but as the rumors became more and more, Chen Wu knew that he had to come forward.
At first, Chen Wu ordered no rumors in the army, and those who violated the order were killed. However, the rumors continued. Chen Wu immediately thought of catching a few birds to kill them. However, his deputy general stopped him. The reason for the deputy general was very sufficient. Now the morale of the soldiers is very fluctuating. If a few soldiers were killed at this time, there would be a mutiny. Liu Jun was always oppressing on the other side of the Yangtze River. If there was a problem within himself and the Liu Jun navy came, there would be a danger of annihilation at that time.
Chen Wu sighed and could only give up the idea of killing a chicken to scare the monkey.
It's so hard that Chen Wu can only use soft ones.
Chen Wu took out all the money he had hidden to reward the entire army and improve morale. The deputy general despised Chen Wu's decision. In his eyes, Chen Wu was usually very poor and had no money to reward him. But Chen Wu took out a box of golden gold, and the deputy general's eyes widened. He really didn't expect that Chen Wu had so much money.
Chen Wu also knew that it would be shocking to take so much money. Chen Wu was usually good to soldiers and did not have the bad habit of drinking blood from soldiers. Most of the rewards Sun Ce gave him were distributed to his subordinates and let them work for his life. So much money was mainly the filial piety of merchants and some local officials. Chen Wu was so at ease about this kind of filial piety. After a long period of accumulation, he gradually became so much. Chen Wu planned to send this money home to his later years of retirement.
Now I don’t know if I can live tomorrow, so Chen Wu used it.
The deputy general knew that everyone had their own orders, so he didn't dare to ask Chen Wu where the money came from. Chen Wu asked the deputy general to use the money to buy some wine and meat, and distributed the rest to the army.
The soldiers of the Eastern Wu navy were moved by Chen Wu's move. Everyone in the army received a reward, which was a huge number. The soldiers who got the benefits began to smile slowly. It was better to have money to eat and eat wine and meat than not. The morale gradually increased a lot, and at the same time made Chen Wu's prestige even greater.
Looking at the smiles of the navy soldiers, Chen Wu's face was very relieved, but when he thought that his pension money was gone, Chen Wu felt in pain.
"Forget it! Forget it! As long as you get through it, what if you have a little bit of gold and silver?" Chen Wu kept comforting himself.
But Chen Wu actually didn't know whether Sun Ce was defeated or what happened now.
Chen Wu is very confused now.
If the Eastern Wu navy continues to persevere, will he finally get what Chen Wu wants?
This is a very big question.
On the flagship of Wankou Port, Sima Yi and Cao Ren were sitting on the deck.
The two sat at each other, with a pot in the middle, and a big fish was boiled inside.
He kept weakening the Eastern Wu naval army for days. Cao Ren was in a good mood. Seeing soldiers fishing on the river, Cao Ren, who was in a mood, also started his own actions. Perhaps because of his luck, Cao Ren shot a big fish worth nearly ten kilograms with his hands as soon as he made a move!
The fish is now being cooked in the pot.
Cao Ren invited Sima Yi over. Sima Yi was unwilling to go to the city, so the two of them dined directly on the flagship.
"The river breeze is far away and the moon is bright. This beautiful scenery is really tempting." Cao Ren took a sip of wine and said in a whisper.
Sima Yi smiled and said, "I didn't expect General Cao to be so literary! I admire him!"
Cao Ren said lightly: "Sir Sima, you are sarcastic about me. I have only studied for a few years, so how can I have any literary talent?"
Sima Yi smiled but said nothing.
Cao Ren asked Sima Yi: "Sir Sima, you and I have been staying in this Wankou, and the others are fighting and making contributions. If this continues, wouldn't we be compared by others?"
"Haha!" Sima Yi laughed. "I knew that this fish was not so simple to eat today. It turns out that General Cao was anxious!"
"Master Sima! I have received the news that Your Majesty and the Grand Marshal are in the territory of Eastern Wu as if they are in an uninhabited place. If Your Majesty attacks Wu County, we are still in the Ankou. How can I look up in front of my colleagues in the future?" Cao Ren was indeed anxious. He didn't want to be behind others.
