Chapter 1357: Sima Yi's Concerns

"We are courtiers, deeply favored by the country, and now is the time to serve the country, the old man is willing to be a pioneer!!"

Lu Meng and Gu Yong's faces were overjoyed when they heard this, and the three of them discussed at the moment. At the beginning of the night, Zhang Zhao took Lu Meng and Gu Yong to lead dozens of soldiers and suddenly entered the post station. The Wei envoy, who was resting in the post station, saw Zhang Zhao leading a group of dozens of soldiers and rushed into the room, and he was immediately frightened and shouted.

"The two countries are at war, don't kill them!!"

Zhang Zhao's face was cold, and he shouted with a blow on his beard and glaring.

"King Wu surrendered with sincerity, but the old thief thought that I was weak in Eastern Wu, and insulted each other on the contrary!! The old thief is unrighteous first, don't blame me for being unkind!! ”

At this moment, the Wei soldiers who came with the envoys in the post station saw the sudden change and rushed with weapons one after another. Lu Meng glared, pulled out the sword at his waist, turned around and slashed, and in an instant, blood flew up, and several Wei soldiers were cut down by Lu Meng on the spot. When the rest of the Wei soldiers saw this, they were all frightened and knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. Seeing this, the Wei envoy screamed miserably and was paralyzed to the ground. Zhang Zhao drank angrily, pulled out the sword at his waist, his wrinkled old face, fierce and fierce, pounced, and stabbed the heart of the Wei envoy with a sword. Wei Envoy's eyes widened, blood spurted out of his mouth, and he stared at Zhang Zhao deadly. Zhang Zhao drew his sword and slashed at Wei Envoy's neck, a cold light flashed, blood burst out, and a bloody head rolled to the ground.

That night, Zhang Zhao sent Gu Yong to gather a group of civil ministers, and Lu Meng went to inform a group of military generals, and a group of civil and military officials of Eastern Wu gathered in the main hall to ask to see Sun Quan. When Sun Quan heard that the hundred officials were kneeling in the palace, his expression sank, and he rushed to the front hall. When Sun Quan arrived, he saw Zhang Zhao kneeling in front of the center, holding a bloody head in his hand. The rest of the civil and military officers each knelt in two columns. Suddenly, Sun Quanbi's eyes widened, and he quickly recognized that the head that Zhang Zhao was holding in his hand was the Wei envoy he saw today. Sun Quan's expression changed, and he heard all the officials say in unison.

"We are willing to fight to the death with Wei Kou, and we will never die!! Please also ask the king to give an order, tear up the books, and prepare the army for war!! ”

When Sun Quan heard this, his heart was strong, just now he heard that Lu Xun's army was about to arrive in Wu County, and he was already determined to resist Cao Cao to the end and never surrender, and he was worried about how to persuade the civil officials led by Zhang Zhao. At this time, seeing Zhang Zhao holding the head of the Wei envoy and leading hundreds of officials to ask for battle, Sun Quan's heart was overjoyed, his momentum burst out, and his eyes were shining, and he immediately ordered to tear up the book and order the three armies to prepare for war. Sun Quan ordered the end. The attendant took the book, and Sun Quan personally tore it up in public. Several officers and soldiers were ordered to withdraw, and each passed the military order.

When he was young, a group of Eastern Wu civil and military officers got up one after another under Sun Quan's orders. Sun Quan sat on the hall, his eyes shimmering, without any confusion, and said in a condensed voice.

"The old thief is greedy and unkind, and he humiliates each other so much, and he can't tolerate any concessions!! Now the army of old thieves has occupied Ping'a, if you know that its envoy will be beheaded, you will definitely want Wu County to march. And Zhuge Ziyu sent an urgent report a few days ago, Jia Wenhe led his troops to attack Danyang, and the battle in Danyang was tight. If Danyang is lost, Jia Wenhe and the old thief will attack and kill together, and Wu County will be in danger. Ladies and gentlemen, do you have a plan to deal with it!? ”

As soon as Sun Quan's voice fell, Gu Yong seemed to have a plan and said in a hurry.

"The king is less worried. Although the current situation is unfavorable, but fortunately, it will not take many days for the right general to rush to Wu County, and the old thief has always been cautious, presumably at this time, he also learned that the right general's soldiers and horses rushed to help. In order to prevent the beginning and the end from being difficult to take care of, the old thief will not dare to easily look at Wu County to march for a while. According to Weichen's opinion, Wang Shang can quickly send reinforcements, rush to Danyang, and destroy Jia Wenhe's soldiers with lightning speed. When the time comes, the army will rush back to Wu County, and the army of the right general will be attacked before and after, so that the old thief can be captured!! ”

As soon as Gu Yong's words came out, all the civil and military officers listened to it, and they all praised it for their thoughts, and every word was beautiful. However, Sun Quan frowned and seemed to be quite worried.

"The old thieves are strong and strong, with an army of more than 100,000 men. With tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, it may be difficult to hold on to it for long. If you are quickly defeated by the old thief, the old thief will come back to attack. How is it good!? ”

Gu Yong's expression sank, and at this time, Zhang Zhao came out with a sigh and said in a condensed voice.

"The old thief commanded the soldiers, a series of fierce battles, if they come back to attack, we will defend according to the high city, and wait for work, until the soldiers and horses who went to help Danyang rushed back, and they gathered momentum to attack it, how can it be invincible!? What's more, according to the old minister's calculations, even if the old thief has great ability, it is difficult to break the army of the right general in a hurry!! ”

When Sun Quan heard this, his expression changed, and he hurriedly asked.

"Why did the prime minister say this!?"

Zhang Zhao's solemn face showed a rare smile, and he said slowly.

"The king has forgotten someone!? With this person, it is comparable to thousands of troops!! ”

Zhang Zhao reminded Sun Quan of a person in his mind, and a smile appeared on his face, and he said in a condensed voice.

"What the prime minister is referring to, but that Zhuge Kong Mingye!?"

"The king is wise! At this time, Shu Han has been destroyed, Zhuge Kongming and other relict ministers voted in my Eastern Wu, and its lord Liu Chan settled in Shi'an. Now Zhuge Kongming and I are in the same boat, and we are bound to do our best to help. The king can quickly summon him to join the right general and defend against the old thief together!! ”

Zhang Zhao spoke sharply and eloquently. At this time, Dr. Zhao's face suddenly changed, and he said urgently.

"Zhuge Kongming is full of talents, and there are unpredictable plans of ghosts and gods, if he defects in battle, how can it be good?!"

As soon as Zhao Zhi's voice fell, Zhang Zhao opened his mouth and smiled.

"Dedu is too worried. Zhuge Kongming is a loyal man, loyal to Shu Han, his lord is lying on the couch of Shi'an, if he dares to defect to the enemy, his master will definitely die. With the old man's understanding of Zhuge Kongming, he would never do such an unfaithful and unrighteous thing. What's more, Xiahou Miaocai fell for Zhuge Kongming's plan and gave his life. The old thief and Xiahou Miaocai are like brothers, and Xiahou Miaocai is even more respected in the army, and the generals and soldiers of the Wei army must be eager for revenge. If Zhuge Kongming throws it, I'm afraid that it will kill himself!! ”

When Zhao Zhi heard this, he came to his senses, bowed his hand, retreated to the seat, and said no more. Sun Quan's expression was shocked, he already had an idea now, so he followed what Gu Yong and Zhang Zhao said, made their own transfers, and ordered Ding Feng to be the commander and lead 20,000 elite soldiers to Danyang to help in the battle. Ding was ordered to quickly retire and recuperate.

A few days later, Cao Cao's condition improved slightly, and suddenly a detailed report came to report that Lu Boyan, the right general of Eastern Wu, had arrived dozens of miles away from Wu County. Cao Cao was shocked when he heard the report, and a hint of foreboding suddenly appeared in his heart. Suddenly, another soldier came to report in a hurry, and Yan Shicai had a team of Dongwu light cavalry rushed to the city, leaving behind dozens of corpses, it was the envoy who went to Wu County before and a group of soldiers, a total of 28 people, none of them survived. When Cao Cao heard this, his complexion changed greatly, and the details that could swallow the sky burst out with great light, and he roared loudly.

"Blue-eyed dare to be so presumptuous, beheading the envoys!! Good!! I will settle this new hatred with you!! ”

Cao Cao finished roaring, and was about to order an army to attack Wu County, but Sima Yi, who was on the side, heard it and hurriedly persuaded.

"Your Majesty, wait!! Now Lu Boyan is about to arrive in Wu County, if our army moves rashly, Lu Boyan will definitely lead the army to cut off the back road of our army, and then our army will be attacked by Wu thieves before and after, it is bound to be dangerous!! ”

As soon as Sima Yi said this, the anger on Cao Cao's face instantly faded by half, and was replaced by a look of horror. The corners of Cao Cao's eyes twitched, he suppressed the anger and hatred in his heart, groaned for a while, and after calming down, he saw the stakes involved, and condensed his thoughts on Sima Yi.

What Zhong Da said is reasonable. I was angry for a moment, and I almost ruined a big thing. In Zhongda's opinion, what should I do? ”

Sima Yi's eyes were blazing, his mind was spinning, and he quickly had an idea, and he said in a deep voice.

"Our army goes deep into the hinterland of Soochow, and it is necessary to ensure that the rear road is safe first, otherwise there will be chaos in the army's mind first. Therefore, His Majesty should send an army to meet Lu Boyan's soldiers and horses. ”

Cao Cao listened, his eyes narrowed, the cold light burst, and said coldly.

"Now that the war is tight, how can it be delayed again and again, why not pour out the army and break it in one fell swoop!?"

"It's good to be able to break it quickly. But that Lu Boyan is not an idle person, and his strategies are first-class. His Majesty poured out his army, and the affairs of the battlefield changed rapidly, if the war was stalemate. Sun Zhongmou took advantage of the situation to lead the people of Wu County to kill, so what!? ”

Sima Yi's eyes changed, and the pupils in his bright eyes contracted, exuding a brilliant light. When Cao Cao heard this, his heart fluttered, and he immediately came to his senses, so his expression froze, and he asked Sima Yi.

"How does Zhong Da think I should allocate it!?"

"Your Majesty can send Zhang Jaw as a commander to lead 30,000 soldiers and horses, and the ministers are willing to go together to give advice. His Majesty is in Ping'a, waiting to see what happens, and if there is a change, he can adapt to the situation. ”

Sima Yi's words were fierce, his lips and tongue were like swords, full of sharp edges. When Cao Cao heard this, his heart was certain, and the solemnity on his face disappeared, so he said with a smile.

"Zhongda's allocation is very much in line with my wishes!"

Before Cao Cao could speak, Sima Yi's face suddenly tightened, and the expression in his eyes was complicated, with a little jealousy, a little excitement, and a little indescribable demeanor.

"We're here, and it's unpredictable to win or lose. If there is any event, Your Majesty will also take precautions to prepare. ”

When Cao Cao heard this, his expression changed, his eyes narrowed, his eyes were full of doubt, and he asked.

"With Zhongda's wisdom through heaven and earth, and Zhang Junyi's bravery, what is Lu Boyan afraid of!? Zhong Da said this, but he was too worried! ”

Sima Yi shook his head slightly, unhurried, and said slowly with an inexplicable vicissitudes.

"The one the minister is worried about is not Lu Boyan'er, but that Wolong Zhuge Kongming!"

In this box, Cao Cao and Sima Yi were discussing the matter of sending troops, and in that box, in the plain dozens of miles outside Wu County, tens of thousands of Wu soldiers were unloading their armor and resting. Suddenly, a group of men and horses galloped over and was immediately intercepted by the patrolling Wu soldiers. In the crowd, a general with swallow-jawed tiger whiskers and thick eyebrows rushed over on a yellow-maned horse, shouting in a thunderous voice.

"I am Zhang Yide, the general of Shu Han, where is Lu Boyan!?"

This general is Zhang Fei, and now he roared at the top of his throat, and immediately spread within a radius of several miles. When the intercepted Wu soldiers heard Zhang Fei's name, they were all afraid, and they couldn't help but retreat. After a while, a noisy sound sounded, and Lu Xun, who was wearing a white robe and silver armor, led hundreds of elite soldiers to arrive. When Lu Xun saw Zhang Fei, his eyes suddenly shot out two rays of light, and he bowed very politely.

"Lu Boyan is here, he is far away, and I hope that Zhang Gongmo will mind!!"

Zhang Fei saw that Lu Xun was born like a crown of jade, with red lips and white teeth, heroic posture, very chic, and saw that he was humble and polite, he couldn't help but feel a little good, so he dismounted and saluted Lu Xun in return. After the two finished their salutes, in the Shu army array, Zhuge Liang, who was wearing a white crane, a scarf on his head, and a goose feather fan in his hand, stepped out, with a faint smile on his face, and bowed his hands.
