Chapter 121: Huimeng Xiakou
Sun Quan didn't want to leave Jianye to go to the front line, but since Liu Yu wanted to meet the alliance, and he also wanted to meet heroes like Liu Yu, he also set off from Jianye to Xiakou.
Because he wanted to avoid the Cao army, it was impossible for Liu Yu to bring an army of 108,000, so he only brought 4,000 soldiers, but because they were all composed of the two elites of the Modao Army and the Flying Dragon Cavalry, their combat effectiveness was not inferior to that of an ordinary army of 60,000 or 70,000.
The armor equipment of the Mo knife army and the flying dragon cavalry is eye-catching, the Mo knife, the horse lance, and the stainless steel sword are all forged in stainless steel, and they are also equipped with fish scale armor, it is no exaggeration to say that the equipment cost of three thousand Mo sword troops and one thousand flying dragon horses, a total of four thousand people, is enough to arm an ordinary army of 100,000 people.
This is still because Liu Yu robbed back more than 100,000 Luoyang people from Dong Zhuo's hands, including a group of top blacksmiths who served the imperial court, and Liu Yu and this group of top blacksmiths improved the method of steelmaking, in exchange for Cao Cao, he couldn't make 3,000 Mo sword troops and 1,000 flying dragon cavalry equipment at the cost of 300,000 ordinary army equipment.
Entering Xiakou, Sun Quan and Liu Bei were already waiting here, specially to greet Liu Yu.
Seeing that the four thousand Mo sword army and flying dragon riders behind Liu Yu exuded the aura of 'local tyrants' everywhere, Sun Quan was surprised and envious, while Liu Bei was jealous and secretly hateful, of course, both of them still had smiles on their faces.
"Qin Hou!" Sun Quan was the first to bow his hand.
Liu Yu also replied: "Wu Hou! ”
Although it was the first time for the two to meet, whether it was through their clothing or their standing position, they recognized each other's 'identities' for the first time.
"My nephew." Liu Yu looked at Liu Bei again.
Liu Bei was unwilling and ashamed, he felt that Liu Yu was obviously younger than him, and he was not from a village, he was known as the eighteenth generation of Emperor Jing of Han after King Jing of Zhongshan, but because Liu Yu was also known as King Jing of Zhongshan, but he was the seventeenth generation of Emperor Jing of Han, so he forcibly suppressed his generation.
Liu Bei thought more than once in his heart, it was not from a village, who knew if Liu Yu was a fake Han clan relative, and he even found many clues.
However, everything was in vain, Liu Yu was praised by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty did not specifically doubt the identity of Liu Yu's Han clan relatives, when Emperor Han Xian returned to Luoyang, he called Liu Yu 'uncle' in front of many ministers, and Liu Yu's identity as a clan member of the Han family has long been not easily overthrown.
Liu Bei is extremely forbearing, no matter how suspicious and hateful, the expression on his face is still benevolent and virtuous.
"Prepare to see my uncle!" Liu Bei calmly bowed deeply to Liu Yu, really like a junior.
Sun Quan looked at this scene, and there was a bit of discoloration and jealousy in his eyes, but Sun Quan didn't show it obviously.
After greeting each other, Sun Quan laughed and invited: "I have prepared a thin wine, everyone take a seat, and drink a few glasses first, please." ”
Sun Quan led Liu Yu and Liu Bei to the banquet.
Wine a few times.
Liu Yu opened his mouth and said: "This alliance is to fight against Cao thieves. Since the Son of Heaven moved back to Luoyang in the east, and was forced to Xudu by the Cao thief, the Cao thief began to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes to this day. The Son of Heaven once took the risk of sending clothes and ribbons to expose the face of Cao thief to the world. Cao thief has long been evil, when he attacked Xuzhou, he ordered the slaughter of unarmed innocent people. Nowadays, there are not many princes left in the world, and those who have the determination to resist Cao are already here, and we should unite as one, not only to defeat the Cao thief, but also to destroy the Cao thief. ”
"Good!" Sun Quan laughed: "What Qin Hou said is very true, we should unite and punish Cao thief together!" Dry! ”
After that, Sun Quan raised his lamp to toast. 3800
"!" Liu Yu, Liu Bei and others also raised the lamp together, and everyone drank it again.
Zhang Fei said at this time: "This time, Cao thieves have an army of nearly one million to suppress the realm, and we should first discuss how to defeat Cao, and then we will discuss how to punish him. ”
In fact, Zhang Fei is just as unhappy with Liu Yu as Liu Bei, but Liu Bei has always suppressed such emotions in his heart and never revealed them, while Zhang Fei is just the opposite, he has always directly expressed it and will not hide it. He saw that Liu Yu was in the limelight like this, but his eldest brother Liu Bei was like a foil, so he couldn't help but be disappointed.
Liu Yu didn't care, but nodded and smiled: "What Yide said is very true, defeating Cao is a matter of imminence, and punishing Cao is a matter of the future, and things are in order." However, our alliance today has the same purpose for the present and the future. ”
Zhang Fei stood up again, looked at Liu Yu with bull's eyes as big as copper bells, and said, "I still don't know something." You have an army of three or four hundred thousand, and Cao Cao's elite is exhausted and goes south, why don't you lead your army east to attack Xudu, but only bring a few thousand people here to join the alliance to fight against Cao, and what is the reason for fighting Cao together with us? ”
Liu Yu glanced at Zhang Fei, this question involves strategy and strategy, and he is the Marquis of Qin in Guanzhong, in front of Sun Quan, how can he put down his identity to argue with Zhang Fei and a general under Liu Bei, who is losing his identity and attracting jokes.
Guo Jia didn't need Liu Yu's signal, so he also stood up and said, "I'll answer this question." ”
Guo Jia smiled and continued: "Although my eldest brother can lead the army eastward, attack Xudu, and threaten Cao Thief to retreat. However, Cao thieves have accounted for more than half of the world today, with more than 1 million soldiers, even if they force Cao thieves to withdraw for a while, but it is difficult to hurt Cao thieves at all, and Cao thieves will also march south in the coming year. Jingzhou and Jiangdong have a lot of water, and there are big rivers and moats, and Cao thieves are not good at water warfare, just take this opportunity to destroy the Cao thief's nearly one million army on the river, even if you can't kill the Cao thief for a while, but once the Cao thief loses this nearly one million army, then the Cao thief will also be greatly injured, and we will have the opportunity to completely destroy the Cao thief. As for my eldest brother, although he only brought 4,000 men and horses, he was the absolute elite of one in a hundred miles among hundreds of thousands of troops, and one was ten or even twenty or thirty, and these 4,000 people were not inferior to the combat power of 100,000 ordinary troops. ”
Speaking of this, Guo Jia also glanced at Liu Bei and said, "The sum of all Xuande's troops is only 30,000. ”
Liu Bei's face twitched.
Zhang Fei's violent temper heard Guo Jia's words, and he wanted to say more, but asked Liu Bei to stop him in time: "Yide sit down!" ”
Zhang Fei snorted and sat down unwillingly.
On the contrary, Sun Quan, Zhou Yu, Zhuge Liang and others deeply felt that Guo Jia's words were superb, and Cao Cao's poor water warfare was definitely a taboo, and it was a completely operable thing to annihilate Cao Cao's nearly one million army on the river, at least Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang had absolute confidence.
Since Zhuge Liang assisted Liu Bei, of course he had to consider many things for Liu Bei, so Zhuge Liang first arched his hand to everyone before he spoke: "I have heard that there are two invincible elites in the world, the Mo Knife Army and the Flying Dragon Horse, in the past, the Mo Knife Army killed Han Sui and Ma Teng in the first battle of the 110,000 Liangzhou army, and the Flying Dragon Rider also entered and exited the 200,000 army of Cao Thief in Xiapi as if entering no man's land, the two elites belong to Qin Hou, Qin Hou is worthy of Cao Thief's lifelong enemy, and the hero of the world!" ”
This is to dig a hole for Liu Yu, create a gap between Liu Yu and Sun Quan's camp, and make Sun Quan's camp jealous and guard against Liu Yu, so that Liu Bei can profit from it in the future.
Sure enough, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu both had different colors in their eyes and were secretly jealous.
Cao Cao is a great enemy, Liu Yu also has three or four hundred thousand soldiers, and there are elites in the world such as the Modao Army and the Flying Dragon Cavalry, which are not good at stubble, so they must be guarded against.
Liu Yu shook his head and said, "I am in Guanzhong, and my lifelong wish is to kill the Cao thief, rescue His Majesty who was held hostage by the Cao thief, and help the Han family." All the power you have is for the thief! ”
This not only shows that his forces are in Guanzhong and do not border Jiangdong, at least for a short period of time in the future, and there will be no conflict. At the same time, everyone's current enemy is Cao Cao, and everything is mainly based on destroying Cao Cao first.
After a pause, in order to dispel Sun Quan's concerns and future plans, Liu Yu suddenly stood up and said to Sun Quan: "I can't hide it, I came this time, in addition to going to the alliance to help fight Cao, I also heard that Wu Hou has a sister, who is the daughter of Wu Hou's ancestor Sun Wentai, named Shang Xiang. Sun Wentai is a hero, and the world respected him as the Jiangdong Tiger back then, and I have always admired Sun Wentai. The so-called tiger father should have a tiger girl, and the tiger girl should be a hero, although I am not talented, but I want to marry it, from now on Guanzhong and Jiangdong are the same family, regardless of each other, only hope that Wu Hou will agree! ”
