Chapter 921: Xu Shu's Strategy
It's already getting dark, and the morning temperature is a little cold as winter is slowly approaching. However, the Jiangdong soldiers in the red cliffs came together but were not affected by such weather, and the Jiangdong soldiers who were familiar with each other would talk enthusiastically. For no other reason, Xu Shu promised Sun Ce that he would get 100,000 arrows in just a few days, and the news has been spread among the red cliffs. Many Jiangdong soldiers thought that Xu Shu had no way to get 100,000 arrows in such a short period of time, but some people felt that Xu Shu was also Liu Bei's military advisor, and he would not rashly agree without being sure.
As a result, two factions were formed within Jiangdong, and both sides insisted on their own words. In the end, the faction that did not believe in Xu Shu put forward a bet that as long as Xu Shu could get 100,000 arrows, then they would admit defeat and clean up for the party that believed in Xu Shu for a month. Conversely, if they win, the other party cleans them up for a month. When this bet came out, the party that believed in Xu Shu was immediately cowardly. At this time, most of the soldiers did not pay attention to hygiene, and the sanitary environment was very bad, and whoever had a brain disease would accept such a bet.
Although the bet can't be made, it won't affect the big guy's discussion of Xu Shu.
And today is the last day, that is to say, before the sun sets, if Xu Shu does not get 100,000 arrows, it is equivalent to losing. At the same time, according to reliable sources, Xu Shu left Chibi last night and disappeared. The party who firmly believes that Xu Shu can't do it is very sure that Xu Shu thinks that he can't do it, and it is better to run away in advance than to be humiliated here. I pretended to be so calm before, and I was completely pretending. This reason seems a bit nonsense, but the party that believes in Xu Shu can't come up with strong evidence to refute it.
There was such a controversy within his subordinates, Sun Ce did not have any dissatisfaction, on the contrary, he still wanted to make things bigger, it was best for everyone to know, when Xu Shu could not finish it, look at what Xu Shu still has such an arrogant face.
Sun Ce concluded that it was impossible for Xu Shu to find 100,000 arrows, especially since Xu Shu hadn't made any moves these days, unless these 100,000 arrows fell from the sky.
It's just that this kind of discussion disappeared when Xu Shu and Lu Su's ships returned.
Everyone in Chibi was alarmed, Xu Shu and Lu Su came back at this time, looking at these big ships, I am afraid that there are 100,000 arrows inside.
Sure enough, Xu Shu asked the soldiers on the ship to move out of the cabin with 100,000 arrows.
When Sun Ce heard the news, he was immediately stupid, where did this Xu Shu find so many arrows.
Sun Ce immediately went to find Zhou Yu, and the two came hand in hand in front of Xu Shu and Lu Su.
As soon as Xu Shu saw Sun Ce and Zhou Yu coming, he arched his hand and said, "General Sun, Governor Zhou, this is 100,000 arrows, and please count them." ”
There are so many feather arrows here, the number is huge, there is no need to count them, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu can believe that there are definitely enough of them.
"It's hard work Xu Junshi." Zhou Yu immediately put on a smiling face.
Xu Shu said lightly: "If there is nothing else, I will leave first." ”
Sun Ce reacted at this time, he wanted to know how Xu Shu got it, but Lu Su followed Xu Shu over and should know the details, so he said, "Master Xu can go by himself." ”
Xu Shu bowed, and then turned to leave, his posture was very chic, which made the Jiangdong soldiers who didn't know the details sigh: See, this is the demeanor of a master, and he has done what others can't do in a short time, and he is not proud at all, which is really admirable.
They didn't know that Xu Shu didn't want Sun Ce and Zhou Yu to see through it, and now they planned to leave as soon as possible.
After Xu Shu walked away, Sun Ce asked Lu Su: "Zijing, where did Xu Yuanzhi's 100,000 arrows come from?" ”
Lu Su said honestly: "Lord, these 100,000 arrows were taken by Xu Shu from Liu Bei. ”
Sun Ce secretly scolded himself for being stupid, just restricting Xu Shu and forgetting that there was still Liu Bei in the Public Security Port, Xu Shu attracted all his attention, but Liu Bei's movement did not notice, no wonder Xu Shu agreed so definitely at that time.
Zhou Yu said suspiciously: "Zijing, as far as I know, you and Xu Shu went out with twenty boats last night, why are the ones coming back now not our Jiangdong boats, but Liu Bei's ships, is there any reason for this?" ”
Zhou Yu has been paying attention to Xu Shu, Lu Su and Xu Shu have a good relationship, he knows it, so when Xu Shu and Lu Su leave the port with the ship, he knows it.
Lu Su was not unhappy because Zhou Yu was spying on him, but said heavily: "The governor is smart! In fact, Xu Yuanzhi didn't go to Gong'an Port at first, he asked him to prepare twenty ships, he wanted to use a strategy to calculate Liu Jun in Jiangbei, who knew that stealing chickens and rice would not be eaten, and twenty ships were destroyed by Liu Jun. ”
"And this? Let's take it into detail. Sun Ce was interested, he wanted to see what Xu Shu's original plan was.
Lu Su explained how he and Xu Shu went to Jiangbei and how they were recognized by Liu Jun, and finally had to go to Gong'an Port.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu secretly praised Xu Shu for being able to come up with the strategy of borrowing arrows from grass boats according to the right time and place, which is really superior. Rao is Sun Ce and Zhou Yu themselves are on Liu Jun's side, and I am afraid that they will also be confused by Xu Shu's strategy in Wulingang, and they gave Xu Shu 100,000 arrows in vain. But this seemingly foolproof strategy was actually seen through by Liu Jun of Wulin Port, and it seems that there are masters in Wulin Port who are no less wise than Xu Shu and Lu Su.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu thought about the previous intelligence and said that Pang Shiyuan in Jingzhou was the strategist in charge of the serial warships, and he was in charge of Wulin Port, and it was estimated that Pang Shiyuan would be the one who saw through Xu Shu's strategy.
But Lu Su then told Liu Yu about Wulin Port, allowing Sun Ce and Zhou Yu to overturn their previous speculation.
"Liu Yu is actually in Wulin Port, which means that it is Liu Yu who has seen through Xu Shu's plan! It seems that the war is not far off! Sun Ce's eyes narrowed, if Liu Yu saw through Xu Shu's strategy, then Sun Ce was shocked by Liu Yu's insight.
Zhou Yu also thought so, but he thought of another point, Liu Yu came to Wulin Port, so it was said that Liu Jun would soon complete the construction of a series of warships, and the attack on Jiangdong was not far away.
Zhou Yu and Sun Ce did not doubt Lu Su's words, they believed what Lu Su said, and now it was a bit troublesome for Jiangdong.
"Gong Jin, call all the civil and military forces immediately, and so-and-so will discuss it now!" Sun Ce knew that Liu Yu had arrived at Wulin Port, and he could deduce the same conclusion as Zhou Yu, and this was the moment when Jiangdong had to respond.
Zhou Yu nodded heavily, and gave the order to let all the civil and military officers go to the council hall to discuss important matters.
As for the 100,000 arrows and the matter of embarrassing Xu Shu, Sun Ce was no longer in the mood to think about it. Compared with Liu Yu, other things can be put aside.
After a while, all the civil and military forces in the red cliff were concentrated in the conference hall, and even Xu Shu, who had just oiled the soles of his feet, also arrived. Xu Shu could know that Sun Ce would ask Lu Su after he left, and once Lu Su told the news of Liu Yu's presence in Wulin Port, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu would inevitably gather everyone to discuss how to deal with it.
After everyone arrived, Sun Ce opened his mouth and said: "Everyone, the latest news, Liu Yu is now in Wulin Harbor, which proves that Liu Jun in Jiangbei is completely prepared and can attack my Jiangdong at any time." Now Ben will command! ”
Sun Ce's men all stood up and listened to Sun Ce's orders.
"Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, you two each take three thousand sailors out of Chibi, shuttle back and forth in the waters between Xiakou and Chibi, broadcast scouts, and report back immediately once you learn that Jiangbei Liu Jun is coming." Sun Ce ordered.
"Order!" Gan Ning and Zhou Tai immediately said.
"Huang Gai and Cheng Pu gathered all the ships in Chibi, and the soldiers were ready to fight at any time!" Sun Ce said again.
Huang Gai and Cheng Pu also gave orders.
After Sun Ce gave a simple order, he sat back.
Zhou Yu said: "Bo Fu, if our army wants to win now, I'm afraid it will have to be unexpected. ”
"Gong Jin, is there a good plan?" Sun Ce asked.
Zhou Yu glanced at Xu Shu, and then said: "Master Xu's strategy is profound, I'm afraid he has already made up his mind. I wonder if Xu Junshi can tell us about his good strategy? ”
Everyone felt strange, how could Zhou Yu know that Xu Shu would have a plan in his heart. They all looked at Xu Shu.
Xu Shu smiled in his heart, Zhou Yu is really a person, he obviously has a way in his heart, but he must guess it himself.
"The governor has already had a plan in mind, so why let him make a fool of himself? I do have some foolish opinions, but if I say it now, I'm afraid that there will be a lot of people, and it's not so good. Xu Shu pretended to say.
"Xu Yuanzhi! You're enough! Usually you pretend to be tall, and the old man doesn't bother to ask. Now you, a sour Confucian, are doubting the loyalty of the princes present to the lord, and we can not even want our lives for the lord of the Sun family, how can you defile it! Huang Gai was a little angry, Xu Shu meant that some people here were disloyal to Sun Ce, and Xu Shu was worried that Liu Yu would know about his strategy.
Huang Gai said what was going on, including Sun Ce, and Xu Shu was a little angry this time.
Zhou Yu looked at Xu Shu with interest, and it was up to Xu Shu to see how Xu Shu ended.
I saw Xu Shu say lightly: "Your loyalty to General Sun can prove the sun and the moon. I believe it very much below. It's just that I heard that Liu Yu sent a lot of fine works to walk in Jiangdong, and some of them even became guests of some people, I don't know if General Huang knows about this? ”
Huang Gai was speechless by Xu Shu's words, he didn't know if this thing was true.
Sun Ce was able to know that Liu Yu's fine work was making trouble in Jiangdong, that is, there were some guys with a very bad conscience who secretly discussed with these fine works.
Thinking of this, Sun Ce was also helpless, such a thing was a scandal, but it was told by Xu Shu, an outsider, and he couldn't get by in terms of face. But face is not very important now, if Xu Shu has a way, he doesn't mind, so he said: "General Gongfu walks in the barracks all day long, how can he know these dirty things. Those present are credible people. Xu Junshi can be blunt. ”
After Sun Ce changed the topic, Huang Gai sat back in his place very normally.
Xu Shu said lightly: "The plan has been shown. In the next thought, Zhou Dudu has already understood. ”
Xu Shu kicked the ball to Zhou Yu, anyway, with Zhou Yu's IQ, he would definitely be able to know Xu Shu's strategy.
"Xu Junshi, don't be too modest, let's brainstorm and fight against Liu Yu together." Xu Shu can play football, and Zhou Yu is also a middle and high master.
No matter what, Xu Shu is an outsider, and the weight of speaking here is very small, if he continues to shirk it, I am afraid that he will be despised by others, and it will be very unfavorable to Xu Shu and Liu Bei in the future.
Since this is the case, of course Xu Shu has to protect his interests.
"Since Liu Yu sent a fine work to lurk in Jiangdong, why don't we take the initiative, and turn the passive into the active!" Xu Shu said.
"Please speak!" Sun Ce was interested.
Xu Shu continued: "General Sun can find a loyal and reliable person who has influence in Jiangdong and uses a trick to surrender! ”
Fraud?! That's a good idea.
Everyone thought it was a good idea.
Zhou Yu smiled slightly, what Xu Shu said was consistent with his. Only Sun Ce frowned, he didn't disapprove of the scheme, but as Xu Shu said, he had to find someone who was very sorry for himself and loyal and influential to go to make Liu Yu believe. But since ancient times, if it is discovered that the deception is discovered, I am afraid that the fate of those who go to the deception will be miserable. Which one of his subordinates is trusted by Sun Ce, let them die, Sun Ce is a little hesitant.
Xu Shu said with a smile: "Although this plan is good, it is a life of death." I didn't dare to say it bluntly just now, because I was worried about it. At this point, it is up to General Sun and you to decide how to decide. ”
Xu Shu must put this matter aside from himself, and he must not leave any language sickness. Anyway, I don't want to say it, it's what you strongly request, and it has nothing to do with it.
Everyone present was silent, and they all looked at Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, hoping that Sun Ce and Zhou Yu would be able to cope with this embarrassment.
After Sun Ce pondered for a while, he said lightly: "The previous order will be implemented immediately, now disperse!" ”
Obviously, Sun Ce needed time to think about this strategy.
Xu Shu doesn't care, whether his plan is implemented or not depends on Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's meaning. It's just that Xu Shu believes that Sun Ce will use this strategy in the end, and this strategy is directly related to another strategy to defeat Liu Yu, and Xu Shu is completely sure that Sun Ce will make the right choice. What's more, Sun Ce still has Zhou Yu by his side, he will definitely convince Sun Ce.
Thinking of this, Xu Shu walked faster than anyone else and was more chic than anyone else.
Sun Ce's subordinates saw that Sun Ce'er had a bad face, and they didn't dare to stay one by one, so they left one after another. Only Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao were still by Sun Ce's side.
