The two armies are fighting together, who is in charge and who is the deputy, and how to cooperate, of course, it is necessary to discuss it carefully, Luo Tong did not doubt him, and immediately responded: "This is a natural principle, and Zhu Dudu is also looking forward to meeting with General Zhongye." ”

Wen Ping smiled very reservedly, revealing a few shiny white teeth, looking very sincere,

He and Luo Tong walked hand in hand to the water's edge, and said goodbye, Luo Tong saw that the army of the Ministry of Culture and Recruitment was strict and neat, and there was a faint image of a strong army, and he had a little more expectations for defeating Shibao.

As long as Xiakou is recaptured, Soochow will have room to maneuver, and it can be attacked and defended.

If Cao Wei is destroyed by Zhao Hao, maybe they can still eat the strong army of Wenpin, and they can also talk to Zhao Hao about the conditions at that time.

He hurriedly returned to the army, and saw that the atmosphere in the army was not right, and it seemed that people were panicking, and everyone's faces were a little worried, and they couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong?" ”

Zhu Ran said with a gloomy face: "Zhuge Ziyu's southern expedition was wiped out, and their father and son almost fled back to Jianye alone, and now that the Shu army has entered Luling, the people in the army are panicked, and I am afraid that there is no fighting spirit." ”

"This ......" Luo was speechless when he was unified, "Luling is barren and barren, even if the Shu army occupies it, it can't launch an attack on my Wu land, what's so terrible!" ”

"That's right, it's just that now the Son of Heaven is seriously ill and really unbearable to fight, I will discuss with a few generals, it is better to return to Qichun first and then discuss!"

Zhu Ran's words represent the opinions of the generals, Dongwu is a very loose family association, and now there is something wrong with the boss of the consortium, and I don't know who it will be in the next term, and the people on the front line are naturally panicking.

Luo Tong said: "The Metropolitan Governor must not be like this!" ”

As he spoke, he gave Lu Xun a look and asked this talented man of the Lu family to support him.

"Wei Wenpin has promised to cooperate with us to fight against Shu, as long as we wait for the two-way attack, we will definitely be able to recapture Xiakou.

If we return to Qichun, it is equivalent to falling short in this battle, if Zhao Hao leads the army to attack again in the future, there is no Xiakou, how can we resist! ”

Zhao Hao can be described as the nightmare of the entire army of Eastern Wu, especially these families of Eastern Wu, and they are the objects of his quick disposal.

Zhao Hao made it clear that Che Ma didn't want to cooperate with these families, and the wealthy families of Dongwu originally thought that if Zhao Hao behaved like this, they would become rootless flowers, and even if they won the world, they would soon fall apart.

But they never expected that although Zhao Hao did not rely on the Shi clan, he relied on merchants and Han Shi to fill the gap left by the Shi clan after retreating.

Those pervasive merchants were rich, and the Han scholars could read and hyphenate, coupled with the promotion of papermaking and printing, more and more people under Zhao Hao's rule could read words and acquire knowledge.

Those Qiantou took root in Jingzhou regardless of their family or grade, and naturally they had to do their best to make Zhao Hao's foundation more stable in order to safeguard their own interests.

Compared with the Wu land under the rule of the Shi clan, which was dull and only knew Qing talk, Jingzhou obviously had more powerful vitality, and even attracted many children of the family who could not get along in Eastern Wu to take refuge, and Xiangyang and Jiangling alone have shown a strong spiritual outlook that is definitely different from the past.

If Zhao Hao occupies Xiakou again, this will be okay.

I am afraid that those merchants with a strong desire for expansion will urge Zhao Hao to go east and eliminate the wealthy families entrenched in Wu as soon as possible.

Lu Xun's face was gloomy, and he sighed: "What Gongxu said is extremely true, although the army's heart is unstable now, but if he retreats, I am afraid that he will not be able to keep Qi Chun in the future.

That Zhao Hao is a wolf, and he has an affair with the eldest princess, if he really comes with all his strength, I am afraid that I will be in trouble both internally and externally, and it will be difficult to deal with it. ”

"Damn, how did I forget about Zhao Hao's house and the eldest princess!"

Everyone can now see that although Lu Yi jumped up and down to persecute Zhongliang, the instructor behind the scenes was Sun Luban, who was General Wei.

Sun Luban Gongwei Jianye, after Sun Quan fell ill, she became one of the few important members of the court, she led the army to control the capital, and got the support of Buqi, if Jianye's affairs did not get her nod, it was really difficult to move an inch.

After Sun Luban, who had always been at odds with the family, took power, he immediately began to promote literacy education in Jianye City, and the imperial court paid to encourage those children of the first Qianshou to study, and as long as the literate ones could be entrusted with reuse and slowly cultivated, this was clearly a way with Zhao Hao in Jingzhou.

When these Qianshou are literate, Sun Luban will definitely let them replace the children of the family, which is slowly wearing away the foundation of the family.

The eldest prince mainly has something to do with Zhao Hao, but I am afraid that Zhao Hao does not need a large army to kill, and the alliance with Sun Luban can make these wealthy families in Eastern Wu irresistible, and when the door is opened, Zhao Hao will be killed.

"Since Wen Ping is willing to fight the Shu army with us, if we coax it this time, I'm afraid we won't have such a good opportunity."

Lu Xun pondered the vocabulary for a while, and said slowly: "Now the Shu army is strong, my country and the Wei State are dependent on each other, Wen Ping is now surrounded by Zhao Hao on three sides, and now it has not been destroyed, because Wen Ping is strategic, he is a fierce general,

It is better for our army to fight together with Wenpin as soon as possible, if we wait for Wenpin to be eliminated, I am afraid that our army will applaud in the future! ”

After thinking about it, Zhu Ran sighed: "Okay, Gongxu, tell me what Wenpin told you." ”

Luo Tong honestly told Zhu Ran everything that Wen Ping had explained, especially about the alliance on the river, and said it very sincerely.

Zhu Ran nodded and said, "Wen Zhongye is a cautious person, the two armies work together, it should be like this." In this way, if you go to the Wen Ping army again, I will say that without further ado, I will meet General Wen by boat at dusk today. ”

"Why sunset?" Luo Tong asked stupidly.

"That stone bud is extremely cunning, if he finds out that our two armies are allied during the day, I am afraid that he will shrink into the city.

The Shu army is strong in water warfare, and the defense of the city is even stronger, if he has been holding out, our army is really helpless. ”

Luo Tong suddenly came to his senses, hurried to the Wei military camp, and asked Wen Ping to meet with Zhu Ran.

Wen Ping frowned and said, "Why sunset?" Wouldn't it be better to wait for the day, I don't need to get on the boat, just talk about it across the boat. ”

Luo Tong explained Zhu Ran's reason carefully to Wen Ping, and Wen Ping reluctantly agreed, he scratched his head and said: "Okay, I only take one boat, and please take only one boat for your army, the two armies will see each other from afar, if you see something different, I can turn around and leave." ”

"Don't worry, Wei Wu is lips and teeth, naturally he will not do such a thing."

Wenpin's caution is normal in the eyes of Soochow, but it makes the generals of Soochow feel a little more secure.

This guy should really want to join forces with Dongwu, otherwise why be so cautious, this is also in line with the consistent style of his townside generals, if not, how can he resist Zhao Hao for a long time.

In the evening of the same day, Zhu Ran left Lu Xun to guard the camp, and he took Luo Tong, Xu Sheng and others to Jiangxin by boat to meet Wenpin.

"I didn't expect us to ask for a clerk's appointment."

Xu Sheng, who has been conscientious, did not participate in the strategic deployment of the Wu army, and Zhu Ran said that he would do whatever he wanted, even if he met with Wenpin, he would not have too many surprises.

After all, in these years, only interests are the most valuable, Xu Sheng is a real person, and he doesn't want to be involved in those conspiracies and calculations, so he just wants to obey the command of the leader and strive for more interests for the country on the battlefield.

When the boat reached the center of the river, the cold wind blew Zhu Ran sneezed several times, he saw a small boat coming on the river from a distance, and after seeing Wu Jun taking the boat, he stopped and circled a few times before heading towards the north of the river, and couldn't help but smile.

"This Wen Ping is really a cautious person, no wonder he can resist Zhao Hao for so long."

Sure enough, after several small boats found that there was indeed only one ship in Dongwu, they quickly retreated to Jiangbei, and soon, the generals of Dongwu saw a ship sailing on the river, which was the boat of Wen Ping, the general of the Wei army.

Behind the boat, there are still a few fast boats, it seems that Wen Ping is ready to jump off ship as soon as he sees that the situation is not right, and he is cautious like this, and there is no one.

"But General Wen is in person!" Zhu Ran was lucky and asked vigorously.

His voice is like a bell, and he can hear it clearly above the river.

Wen Ping's boat gradually approached, and Wen Ping, who only wore light armor on the bow of the boat, also said sullenly: "The person who came is Zhu Ran, the metropolitan governor." ”

The wind and waves on the river are not small, and through the night, both of them can't see each other's faces clearly, but the temperament that has been in the top position for a long time can't deceive people.

Zhu Ran said yes with a smile, and then said: "General Zhongye, this time our army is going westward, and we need the assistance of General Lao to discuss the Shu Kingdom with me." ”

Wen Ping laughed and said: "Wu and Wei are dependent on each other, the affairs of Wu are the affairs of Wei, and any Wei general who leads the troops will not be lazy." ”

Wen Ping's words were strange, Zhu Ran sounded a little awkward, but he couldn't find out what the problem was.

"In that case, I will thank General Zhongye first. Our army is ready to attack Xiakou at dawn the day after tomorrow, the Xiakou stone bud will inevitably be dealt with by the water army, the previous battle, our two armies have their own damage, this time and the Shu army when the war, General Zhongye as long as he storms Xiakou, will be able to establish immortal achievements. ”

"Wonderful!" Wen Ping laughed as if he had heard of this tactic for the first time, "He is worthy of being a Yifeng general, and he is really a talent of Eastern Wu!" ”

Wen Ping's exaggeration made Zhu Ran feel even more unhappy, but when people praise themselves, they can't turn their faces with others, so he can only smile bitterly and continue: "General Zhongye praised it falsely. ”

While he was talking, Xu Sheng suddenly felt cold and said, "Yifeng waits, I'll get off the boat." ”

Before Zhu Ran could react, he saw that Xu Sheng had already stepped into the boat, and after a while, Xu Sheng's angry scolding came from the cabin.

"It's not good, it's a trick, most of the governors run away!"

"What's going on?"

Before Zhu Ran could react, he saw Xu Sheng, who was wet all over, crawling up and shouting angrily: "Run, Wen Ping sent water ghosts to scuttle the boat, this is to drown me and others!" ”

"Impossible!"

Zhu Ran was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand why Wen Ping suddenly made trouble at this time and actually wanted to arrest himself.

Doesn't he understand that Wu Wei is now dependent on each other, if he can't defeat the Han army, the two countries will end up together?

He looked angrily at Wen Ping's boat, only to see that countless torches had been lit on the boat, and in the swaying firelight, Zhu Ran clearly saw Wen Ping's face full of mockery.

"Good birds choose trees to perch, General Yifeng," Wen Ping said with a cruel smile, "I, Wen Ping, as an old minister of the Han family, how can I allow Er and others to rebel and make enemies of the Han Dynasty, left and right, invite General Yifeng to me!" ”

Only then did Zhu Ran see that it turned out that the big banner behind Wen Ping was not written "Wei", but a "Han" character with a dragon flying and a phoenix dancing!
