Chapter 284: Heart Disease
The five tiger generals of Shu Han, except for some nests where Guan Yu and Zhang Fei died, Huang Zhong died of injuries, and Zhao Yun died without illness, and the result was okay.
Only Ma Chao, the original Shenweitian general, the peerless military general who had killed Cao Cao in Weishui and cut his beard and abandoned his robe, had the most miserable fate.
After the defeat of Weishui, Ma Chao's family was killed by the enemy, and there were more than 200 generals in the family, and in the end, only Ma Chao and Ma Dai were left.
All his family members were killed, and Ma Chao was not reused under Liu Bei. At most, when Liu Bei was the emperor, he became a mascot to persuade him.
"The original Liu Bei was jealous of Ma Chao because of his status as a prince! And Ma Chao's reputation among the Qiang people in Liangzhou was too high! If he was not careful, it was possible for Lu Bu to seize Xuzhou again!"
Yang Yun knew what Liu Bei was thinking.
When he was competing with Cao Cao for Hanzhong, Liu Bei had asked Ma Chao and Zhang Feitun to distinguish between the troops and influence Cao Cao's army from the flank. But unexpectedly, as soon as Ma Chao raised his arms, he instigated more than 70,000 people of the Qiang clan to respond.
What does the more than 70,000 troops represent? At that time, Liu Bei's main elite in Hanzhong was just this little bit of a man.
If Ma Chao was given a little more time, wouldn't he be able to pull up an army of 100,000 from the Qiang clan? At that time, once Ma Chao had other thoughts, the masters of Yizhou and Hanzhong would not necessarily be anyone.
At the beginning, when Liu Bei served as the pastor of Xuzhou, in order to subdue Lu Bu, he let him station Xiaopei, but the result was that Xuzhou was taken by Lu Bu, and he was homeless and forced to attach himself to Cao Cao.
With this kind of experience, Liu Bei will naturally not repeat the mistakes of the past.
"However, I am not the original Liu Bei, and it is undoubtedly a great waste to let a peerless martial artist die depressed at home!"
With the three peerless generals Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, even if the Wei army and the Wu army joined forces to attack Jiangling, Yang Yun would not have the slightest worry.
He thought to himself, but his face did not move.
"The hussar general's illness is a heart disease!"
He said lightly, and said to Ma Yan: "At the beginning, General Meng Qi's father and brother, the whole family, including his wife and son, were all killed by Cao thieves, and the great revenge has not been avenged, and Meng Qi is depressed and sick! I let Meng Qi come this time, just to deal with Cao Jun, so that he has a chance to take revenge!"
"Even if you go to deliver the message, as soon as the will arrives, Meng Qi's heart disease will naturally be cured without medicine!"
In this world, a peerless general, with a strong body, usually has no illness, and it is not so easy to die of illness.
Yang Yun suddenly thought that if he didn't come, this world would proceed according to the original timeline, and Liu Bei would be defeated in Yiling in July of the second year of Zhang Wu. Retreat to the White Emperor City.
In December, Ma Chao fell ill and died. In March of the third year of Zhang Wu, Liu Bei died of illness in the White Emperor City......
The time of Ma Chao's death seems to be too coincidental. It's like Liu Bei solved the hidden dangers in the country for Liu Chan before he died of illness, and deliberately secretly let Ma Chao "die of illness".
Of course, this is just a flash of thought in Yang Yun's heart, not necessarily the truth of the matter.
"Command!"
Ma Jian didn't speak again, and walked directly outside.
After Ma Jian left, Huang Zhong did not stay any longer, immediately retreated, and according to Yang Yun's will, he brought 10,000 soldiers and horses north to support Dangyang.
Yang Yun walked outside the door, and a group of personal guards immediately followed.
Standing on the broad city wall of Gangneung, looking south, on the misty river, it seems that there are warships of the Wu army tentatively observing the movements of Gangneung.
After Huang Zhong led an army of 10,000 out of the city. Wu's warship immediately returned in a puff of smoke.
"Xiaoling, public security!"
These two places are the places where Lu Xun and Zhuge Jin are stationed. The soldiers and horses of the Wu army were seriously damaged, and there were not many troops left, so they were very cautious.
"If you don't defeat the naval army of Wu, no matter how powerful the infantry and cavalry are, you won't be able to shake the foundation of Eastern Wu!"
At the beginning, Cao Cao led an army of 300,000 to the south and took Jingzhou without a fight. The two cities of Xiangyang and Jiangling are in hand, and there are also 200,000 Jingzhou sailors who have taken refuge in themselves.
The combined army of land and water amounted to nearly 500,000 soldiers.
If you add the baggage soldiers and auxiliary soldiers, it is not a false report to say that it is a million army.
At that time, Cao Cao's strategists were like clouds, and the generals were like rain. Whether it is the strength of the army or the top generals, they are all above Yang Yun at this time. Even Cao Cao returned in Chibi, which shows the power of the Eastern Wu Navy.
The navy is the foundation of the founding of the country.
If the Eastern Wu Naval Division is not destroyed, Yang Yun will not be sure to continue to advance eastward.
"However, the naval army of Eastern Wu is powerful, but the main reason for winning the Battle of Chibi is because of Zhou Yu, a natural commander! Without Zhou Yu, Eastern Wu would have been destroyed long ago!"
After Zhou Yu, only Lu Xun can be compared to him.
"We must find a way to take down Lu Xun! Without this governor of Eastern Wu, I can attack when I want to attack Eastern Wu!"
If you lose Lu Xun, Soochow will become a fish belly. When the time comes, Shunjiang will destroy Wu, and there will be more than 50% chance of winning.
Yang Yun's eyes narrowed slightly, and a sharp light flashed. Looking in the direction where Xiaoling was located, it seemed that across the void of a hundred miles, he saw Lu Xun's army stationed in Xiaoling.
In the blink of an eye, a few days have passed. The Wei army, under the leadership of Cao Zhen, united with Cao Ren of Xiangyang, and more than 100,000 troops have come to the city of Dangyang. Began to send small forces of troops and horses to tentatively attack the city.
When the Wei army attacked, they were very cautious and did not give Huang Zhong a chance to release arrows. The two sides began to stalemate in Dangyang.
Jiangzhou, the Governor's Mansion.
In the hall, Zhao Yun looked at the will in his hand, his expression calm.
"General Zhao, Your Majesty has asked you to leave for Jiangling as soon as possible! If there is nothing else to do, please ask the general to set off!" said a lieutenant who came to give the order.
"Ben knows!"
Zhao Yun sighed slightly, beckoned, and asked his subordinates to take this captain out. When everyone was gone, he stood up and walked back and forth in the hall.
"Your Majesty defeated the Eastern Wu army and reoccupied Jiangling! With Jiangling in hand, the four counties of Jingnan can go down with one drum! I didn't expect that Your Majesty is so powerful, I, Zhao Yun, may have the opportunity to step on the Central Plains and march into Hebei to return to my hometown!"
According to Zhuge Liang's Longzhong pair, Jingzhou and Yizhou are in hand, and the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains has a chance of winning if they send troops from both sides.
When Guan Yu lost Jingzhou, a group of people, including Zhao Yun, were extremely disappointed in their hearts, and they all knew that Jingzhou was lost, and with the power of Yizhou, they could not fight against Cao Wei for most of the world.
Zhao Yun is a peerless general, but a peerless general is not a god, he can only change the local battle situation, and he can't affect the fate of a country.
"This time, I must help Your Majesty break through the Wei and Wu armies and keep Jingzhou!"
