Cao Miao shook his head, rare modesty. "I can be an internal helper, but I'm not good enough."

"No, I think you're super powerful, much better than those celebrities."

"Those are all unacceptable means, which can be broken but not stand. At most, I can only count you as Chen Ping, and I can't be Zhang Liang. If you want to achieve a career, you need your Zhang Liang. ”

Sun Luban didn't seem to understand, but when he saw that Cao Miao said it seriously, it didn't look like a joke, so he didn't refute it.

Lu Hong, who was on the side, listened to it and thought it was true. She glanced at Cao Miao, her eyes were a little strange. In the past, I only felt that Cao Miao was arrogant and unstoppable. Now it seems that he is actually a person who understands, and he is very self-aware.

Not many people can do that. There are too many self-righteous celebrities in this world, but there are few self-aware wise people.

More importantly, he sincerely put aside his man's conceit and planned the future for Sun Luban, including Mrs. Sun.

Sun Luban is Mrs. Sun's future.

It's just that I don't know how he arranged this aunt and nephew.

After a few words of gossip, the topic turned back to the current situation of the war. Sun Luban's anger did not subside, and Zhou Yi thought of others. Even though she had performed well in the recent battle, to Sun Quan's great satisfaction, the ministers collectively ignored her achievements, consciously or unconsciously, and did not even say a word of justice.

The situation was more difficult than she thought, which made her further understand Mrs. Sun's difficulty, and also made her even more angry.

These anger remained hidden in her heart until it was ignited by Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi has become the representative of those hateful families, and Sun Luban can't wait to kill him with his own hands.

In contrast, Cao Miao was much calmer, and he analyzed the current situation for Sun Luban.

Judging from the more than 20 days of fighting, the possibility of Zhou Yi resolving the battle within five days is very slim. In addition to Zhou Whale's conceit and overestimation of his own strength, there is another important reason: this complex and changeable terrain cannot give full play to the superiority of troops, and is more suitable for small-scale elite operations.

Even if Sun Luban brings the troubles to relieve the troubles, he may not be able to win quickly.

If we take into account the countless large and small cottages in Poyang, the assault is bound to be a protracted battle. Even if we can win, it will be a few years later, and Poyang County will become a scorched earth.

This is not what Sun Quan expects to see. A peaceful solution is the only practical solution.

"You're still suggesting negotiations?" Sun Luban hesitated.

"Yes, the princess and I have common interests."

Sun Luban said: "Of course you and I have common interests, but Cao Su ......"

"Cao Su is also surnamed Cao. If the surname of the Great Wei Emperor is Yuan, how long can his family's wealth be maintained? ”

Lu Hong understood what Cao Miao meant. "What does Cao Jun mean is to cooperate with Cao Su and go to Liaodong together?"

Cao Miao nodded. "Cao Su is brave, although there are few soldiers under his command, they are all elite, and they should be useful. This time to Liaodong, we took the sea route, and the initiative was still in the hands of the princess. Cao Miao bowed slightly. He is of the same clan as me, and he has some friendship. Moving with emotion, knowing with reason, and forcing with coercion is not completely uncontrollable. ”

Sun Luban groaned, his eyes looking away. Lu Hong didn't speak, and looked down at the documents on the case.

Cao Miao didn't say anything more. If you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, this matter is to talk slowly, so that they can be mentally prepared first. When Cao Su defeated Zhou Yi, Wu Ren saw that Cao Su was in front of them, but they couldn't swallow it, so they would naturally consider this plan.

If you can't get it on the battlefield, don't want to get it at the negotiating table. Whether the negotiations can be realized depends on whether Cao Su has the strength to negotiate.

——

Five days is a short time.

Zhou Yi did not dare to take it lightly, and specially convened the generals to discuss the matter, and offered heavy rewards to boost morale.

In order to let the soldiers have enough physical strength, he deliberately rested for two days, slaughtered pigs and sheep, and feasted on soldiers. At the same time, more scouts were sent to reconnoiter the terrain, and more crossbowmen were mobilized to prepare sufficient supplies.

After adjustments, the morale of the soldiers of Poyang County has been boosted to a certain extent, and they have regained their spirits and launched a final onslaught on the top of the mountain. The battle was extremely fierce, and the rested Poyang soldiers launched wave after wave of attacks, conquering two hills in one day.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Yi once again sent someone to recruit the Chen brothers. Surrender now, and spare your life. If you are not interested, you will bear the consequences.

The Chen brothers were frightened and shaken, and sent someone to discuss with Cao Su.

Cao Su said, you give me a little time to think about it. Before the Wu army attacks tomorrow, I will definitely give you an answer.

The Chen brothers agreed. They are in awe of Cao Su's bravery, and they are not willing to turn their faces with Cao Su. If they really want to force Cao Su and kill both of them, Zhou Yi will not let them go either, and will definitely take the opportunity to attack and slaughter their cottages, so as to intimidate other cottages.

The messenger who sent the Chen brothers to death, Cao Su invited Xiahou Hui.

"The winner is tonight." Cao Su raised his wine glass and said to Xiahou Hui.

Xiahou Hui nodded and raised his glass in return. "For the sake of Da Wei."

"For the sake of Da Wei." Cao Su drank all the wine in the cup. "With you and Yun Liang's strategy, I will charge into battle, and victory will definitely belong to us."

—————

Xiahou Hui also craned his neck and drank a glass of wine. She wiped the corners of her mouth and said with a smile: "Brothers are of the same heart, and their benefits are gold." I, a female streamer, can make up for you and do my part for Dawei, I am grateful. It's a pity that I can't go into battle with you to kill the enemy. ”

Cao Su laughed and shook his hand. "You and I are three people, each performing its own duties, and there is no superiority or inferiority. Without Yunliang operating in the heart of the Wu people, we would not have had a chance to appear here. Without your advice and response, I alone would not be able to deal with the constant accidents. Now that the plan of the two of you has basically been realized, the final blow should be completed by me. ”

Xiahou Hui breathed a sigh of relief, his mood was indescribably excited.

Although she was born in a general, she never thought that she would have the opportunity to be in the battle formation in person, and she would be able to participate in such a military operation in depth, and in the future, she would go to Liaodong with Cao Miao and Cao Su to fight for the survival of the Great Wei.

If it can be successful, such a feat will be enough to glorify the portal, and maybe it will leave a mark in history.

Even if she fails, under Jiuquan, she can be worthy of her father and Emperor Wu.

Xiahou Hui stroked the slightly cold armor and iron pieces, but there was a fire burning in his heart. She poured another glass of wine and held it high.

"Desi, work hard!"

Cao Su raised his wine glass, touched it with Xiahou Hui, and smiled at each other. He finished drinking, put down his glass, picked up the war knife on the side, and turned to leave the tent.

Seven tribunes waited outside the tent, motionless, like wooden chickens. Cao Su looked around and nodded slightly.

"Let's go!"
