Chapter 147: Victorious Escape (1/8 for Zhuxia Ghosts)
Needless to say, Liu Chan is also ready to hurry up and not fight.
The cold winter is coming, and the epidemic is getting more and more severe.
Although Liu Chan has made a lot of preparations according to the records in the "Barefoot Doctor's Handbook",
But the ferocious epidemic still took the lives of many people.
After a long time of commanding the army, he has really felt the lack of Jingzhou's war capability.
Now that the midwinter has arrived, the people's livelihood is withering, even if they can repel the steady stream of Wu army in the future, but in this way, I don't know how many people will exhaust their mental strength and freeze to death in this cold month.
Therefore, he took the initiative to exaggerate the news of Zhuge Jin's defeat, and took the initiative to negotiate with Wu Jun to get out of here.
From the twilight of spring to the middle of winter, Liu Chan was tired of fighting blood.
In winter, we will ensure that there will be fewer deaths, and when spring begins, we must hurry up to restore people's livelihood.
At least he can't let Peng Qi's story spread greatly under his rule.
While dealing with the headache of the epidemic, Liu Chan tried to send troops to Chaoyang to see if he could find an opportunity to bring Zhuge Qiao back.
He thought that there was still Wu Jun in Weiyang, but he didn't expect that when he heard that Sun Jiao was defeated, Shi Yi, who was already deeply infected with the epidemic, was worried that he would be caught by Liu Chan in the north and south, so he took the initiative to give up Weiyang and returned to Xiangyang to report the news.
Zhuge Qiao, who had been besieged in Xiakou for a long time, finally saw the envoy sent by Liu Chan coming, and he was immediately overjoyed and hugged the envoy heavily.
"I already knew that the prince would not let me wait to stay here, and I already knew that the prince had a plan to shock the sky!"
The envoy carefully told the story of Liu Chan's defeat of the main force of the Wu army at the mouth of the Youjiang River, the capture of Zhou Tai, the killing of Han Dang and Song Qian, and the capture of Sun Jiao in an instant.
The Xiakou army was suddenly boiling, and everyone was praising Liu Chan's courage in using soldiers-
The twelve-year-old son, a famous general of the Lian Kewu Army, also captured the former Xiakou Governor Sun Jiao in his hands.
In this world, who else can make such achievements!
In the past month or so, although there has been no shortage of food for the time being, the atmosphere in Xiakou City has not been good.
After all, there are enemies all around, and the Wu army is not without experience in slaughtering cities in Xiakou.
In case Sun Quan comes back from killing and starts to slaughter the city in anger, these people who follow Zhuge Qiao to defend the city are all ghosts under the sword.
When Sun Ben heard that Liu Chan had won a big victory, he was finally relieved.
As the biggest murderer of Xia Kou's easy fall, Sun Ben didn't want Sun Quan to fight back.
Hearing that Liu Chan had won a series of big victories, Sun Ben immediately shouted:
"I have heard for a long time that the son of the world is like a god, and there are still many unbelievers before.
Now that I think about it, the son of the world is far better than the ancient Han Bai.
My grandson Ben has low skills, and he is also willing to serve the prince before and after the saddle, and help the Han family together. β
The sedan chair carries people.
In the past, when Sun Ben said this nonsense, Zhuge Qiao would definitely think that he was yin and yang.
But now listen......
Hey, don't say that Sun Ben is so unpraised?
"The son of the world uses soldiers, and it is really powerful."
Jufu, who had been immersed in shock just now, reacted.
"I just said that it was Yu Chuan who gave advice to the prince, I heard you right?"
The messenger nodded honestly and said with awe:
"Mr. Zhong Xiang talked about the strategy of ten wins and ten defeats, and said that Sun Jiao's ability was lowly and vulnerable.
Only then did the prince make up his mind to attack bravely, and burned Sun Jiao's boat with a rocket, and won a complete victory.
Everyone in Gangneung knows about this matter, and it is a wonderful talk, everyone praises the genius of the world, and Mr. Zhongxiang is resourceful! β
Yu Xuan's temper, Zhuge Qiao and Ju Fu have all been taught.
This old guy actually found out in his conscience and gave Liu Chan an idea, which shows how far Liu Chan's ability to control people's hearts has reached.
"Mr. Zhongxiang's righteousness should be spread all over the worldββ
Xiaoxing, you will go to Jiangdong Erlang in the army to say, let everyone know that even Dongwu Yashi also gave advice to the prince-
Look at Sun Quan again, he doesn't need to be so talented, his ......"
Zhuge Qiao wanted to say that it can be seen that Sun Quan's vision of people is really not good,
But after thinking about it, Sun Quan still trusts Zhuge Jin a lot and actively promotes him.
He had no choice but to swallow the latter sentence again.
Retreat is at hand.
Sun Ben begged Zhuge Qiao to take him with him, but Zhuge Qiao hesitated, but still agreed.
After all, they are generals of the imperial court, and they belong to a rare breed, so if they want to follow them, they must be taken away together.
knew that Sun Quan would not let go of his Sun Ben, and now he is determined to be a happy second devil.
He commanded his own troops and eagerly helped Zhuge Qiao carry grain and grass.
Zhuge Qiao's building boat has already sailed back to Jiangling, even if he doesn't go back, he doesn't dare to open the building boat during this dry season.
A bunch of ships and fighting ships were concentrated, and they were finally filled with 30,000 tons of rice grain, and they finally did not lose money.
However, in addition to the previous storage of grain in Xiakou, there was also the military rations sent from all over Wu before, which were piled up like a hill in the military camp.
Since the whole army is going to retreat, these grains are destined to not be moved, Sun Ben poured out all the bad water in his stomach, and said in a dark way:
"General, this grain can't be cheaper Sun Quan.
In humble and humble opinion, it is better to burn it all with one fire. β
"If this grain is burned, Jiangdong will inevitably have a food shortage within three to five years, isn't this a good opportunity from God?"
When Sun Ben said this, Zhuge Qiao was slightly moved for a while.
But soon, he rejected Sun Ben's idea.
And very seriously refused.
"Nonsense! How can we, who are teachers of righteousness, use such means?"
However, Sun Ben's suggestion gave him a wake-up call.
"Come on, open a warehouse and release grain."
Zhuge Qiao had a solemn face and said quite passionately:
"We have lived in Xiakou for a long time, which has caused a lot of trouble to the people in the city.
Tell the people in the city that the princes of Hanzhong are all teachers of benevolence and righteousness,
We opened all the granaries in the city, and we took as much as we wanted, as long as we didn't rob them! β
.
"Take as much as you can."
Ding Feng, who had been killed more than ten times in the Wu army's battle report, had now moved to Yiyang.
The tens of thousands of people under his command are all rabble, and after returning to Linxiang from Baqiu, they have indeed suffered defeats and have been running around with their heads in their hands.
But the clever Ding Feng tasted the sweetness of abundant food,
No matter how miserable the defeat was, he would protect the food to the death.
If he really can't do it, he threw down a part of the rice and grain for the hungry Wu soldiers to scramble, and he quickly turned in, and in a few days he was able to gather tens of thousands of horses.
Now Zishui has also entered a dry period, and Ding Feng can't go back to the original path.
After thinking about it, Ding Feng decided to move towards Wuling.
To go to Wuling, he had to go to Yuanshui, and Ding Feng simply returned to Yiyang again, this time he was going to do a big thing.
"The prince of Hanzhong is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and these rice grains were originally scavenged by Wu Gou from the princes, and now they should be returned."
Ding Feng said very sincerely, and many people in the city who listened to it secretly wept, saying in their hearts that there are such good people in this world.
After a few days, Ding Feng really took grain in Yiyang seriously.
He personally sent golden corn to those bitter poor Shanyue, and took their hands to ask for warmth, and jointly scolded Sun Quan's eighteenth generation ancestors, and even Sun Quan's ancestor Sun Wu was scolded by Ding Feng for being worthy, and the eyes of everyone under him were straight.
"Big brother, big brother think twice."
Ding Feng's subordinates thought that he was infected with the epidemic and burned his head.
How to give the rice and grain that was finally snatched to a group of Qianshou and Shanyue.
Seeing that Ding Feng's crocodile tears were almost gone, they hurriedly surrounded and asked Ding Feng not to pretend to be forced to run quickly.
Ding Fengbai glanced at a few of his sweaty subordinates and sneered:
"Rob and leave, what's the difference between us and the bandits?
I'm helping the prince to buy people's hearts. β
"Big brother, you must be crazy, these Qiantou have never known the righteousness,
If you want to buy it, you'll have to buy it from those clans, and maybe they'll be able to say a good word about you. β
Ding Feng looked at a group of noisy subordinates, and suddenly remembered that when he had just followed Gan Ning, Gan Ning also fooled himself in such a way, which opened his eyes.
He grinned, showed a mouthful of snow-white teeth, and said with emotion:
"Is there a reward for nothing in this world?
If you eat my rice, you should do something for me, that's the good reason. β
The next day, news of the impending attack of the Wu army spread throughout the city.
According to legend, the Wu army has also run out of food.
They are now counting on repelling Ding Feng and snatching back the rice and grain in Ding Feng's hands for the winter.
And the people who received the rice and grain from Ding Feng were very likely to be liquidated after the return of the Wu army.
Even if they are not liquidated, regaining the rice and grain they have received is enough for them to die in this cold winter.
In Wu Jun's usual style, this is all basic operation.
Ding Feng didn't seem to hear the news, he was still putting grain,
Moreover, the scope of grain release is also getting larger and larger, and it is only given to Qianshou Shanyue, not to the children of the world.
Despite the threat of death, no one in the world can refuse to have food in front of them.
In the next few days, more and more people came to Yiyang to get grain, and Ding Feng roughly estimated that there were even as many as 100,000!
100,000 people, enough to close the net.
The credit is left to the son, and the fault is all mine.
Presumably, now, I Ding Feng will go down in history.
A day later, a bloodied soldier rushed into the line to release grain and shouted to Ding Feng that the Wu army had been killed.
Ding Feng pondered for a moment, saluted earnestly in all directions, and said slowly:
"Princes, our army has been fighting with Wu Gou for a long time, and now we are going to retreat to Wuling.
Although I really want to give food to the princess again, we really have to leave. β
As he spoke, Ding Feng waved his hand, and his subordinates immediately took action, sealing the rice and grain that should have been distributed to everyone.
Those people were stunned at first, and then they all said loudly:
"General Ding, we have come all the way, and we haven't got it yet!"
"General Ding, there are a lot of people in our family, which is not enough."
"General Ding, let it go for a few more days, and we will resist Wu Gou together."
Ding Feng, who heard General Ding's voice, was fluttering in his heart, but he finally remembered his previous arrangement.
He sighed and said:
"Our army is benevolent and righteous, and we don't want to increase the killing in vain, if Wu Gou attacks from all sides, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with."
"Well, I'm going to leave today.
If you are willing to follow, I will continue to distribute rice and grain on the way, and if not, how about I leave it at that?"
"If Wu Gou dares to come, we will definitely return to protect the monarchs along the way.
The prince of Hanzhong used his soldiers like a god, and when he arrived in Wuling, those Wu dogs naturally did not dare to chase after him.
If you want to eat food, let's all hit the road! β
In December of the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an, the light gray sky began to slowly fall crystal snowflakes.
In Chengdu's Military General's Mansion, Zhuge Liang, who had finished dinner in a hurry, suddenly had a whim and slowly walked into the courtyard.
There were no stars in the sky at night, and it was very dark all around, but Zhuge Liang stood in the snow, slowly looking up at the sky, and he was a little stupid.
"Kong Ming, what's wrong?"
Zhuge Liang's wife Huang Yueying brought a big jacket and gently draped it over Zhuge Liang's shoulders.
For the first time in more than ten years, she saw Zhuge Liang leave behind his busy military affairs and look at the sky in the courtyard.
Just like when he was lying high in Longzhong.
Zhuge Liang smiled gently, turned around and gently held Madame's cold and rough hands, and said with a smile:
"It's okay, let's go back!"
"There must be something, tell me quickly." Huang Yueying pretended to put on a straight face, but then she smiled.
"Forget it, it must be a good thing, I won't ask."
"No," Zhuge Liang, who was quite reserved just now, could no longer suppress the ecstasy in his heart, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the dark sky, and said excitedly,
"I see it, Destiny is back!"
Following the direction of his finger, Huang Yueying clearly saw a shining star breaking through the stratus clouds and hanging proudly in the night sky overhead.
Looking at Zhuge Liang's rare excited expression, she tightened the fox fur on Zhuge Liang's body and said with a smile:
"Got it, it's cold outside, come back quickly."
