Chapter 718: Kong Ming's Unexpected
"Your Majesty, why are you up so early today?"
Xu Shu saw that Liu Wei had pulled him away early in the morning, and immediately said with a smile.
Liu Wei couldn't help but be happy after hearing this, "Look at what you said, did I get up late in the past?" ”
Liu Wei felt that he had not slept lazily every day as an emperor in ancient times, and if he went to work, he could still have a weekend off.
However, when Liu Wei looked around, he found that it was indeed earlier, much earlier than usual.
But Liu Wei felt that he couldn't do it himself, so many days have passed, and there is no news.
This is related to whether he can win Jingzhou, so he is naturally worried.
If he can take the nine counties of Jingzhou, then he can speed up the pace of unifying the world.
If this can unify the world in advance, then the harm to the people will be small.
"Yuan Zhi, you don't have to care about these details, just think of it as a court, you and I will discuss it in advance." Liu Wei looked at Xu Shu and said with a smile.
"Yuan Zhi naturally knows His Majesty's thoughts, and he is just worried about the situation in Xiangyang." Xu Shu looked at Liu Wei and said.
"Yes, this has been so long, not to mention Kong Ming's trip to Jiaozhou, even Zilong's reinforcements will leave later, and it will be a long time." Liu Wei did not deny it, and even nodded and said.
And in the past few days, I don't know if it's my own psychological effect, Liu Wei always feels a little irritable, as if something will happen.
It is precisely because of this that he couldn't help but find this Xu Shu in advance today.
At present, in addition to discussing government affairs, the military aspect is more of a private discussion.
After all, if there is no unification today, these things can't be taken out casually, and if they are spied on, it will be troublesome.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry too much, since there is no news, then it is the best news." Xu Shu looked at Liu Wei and stepped forward and said.
Now Sima Yi is acting with Zhou Yu, since there is no news, then at least it means that there are no accidents in either Xiangyang or Jiaozhou.
This is good news.
However, although Liu Wei understood the meaning of Xu Shu's words, he was still a little self-comforting when he thought about it.
But for now, it seems that there is no better idea.
"It's going to be a court meeting soon, so let's go and get busy." Liu Wei raised his hand and said after thinking about it.
However, after listening to Liu Wei's words, Xu Shu quit, he actually came in advance, where could he leave like this.
"Your Majesty, a few days ago, you planned to rectify the family, although the itinerary was slow, but there are still some family opinions."
Xu Shu looked at Liu Wei and frowned and said, after all, in addition to war, other rules will gradually expand.
The disaster of the family can no longer continue, just like the disaster of the state pastor, and now the states under Liu Wei have no position of state pastor.
Because Liu Wei didn't want to sweep away these princes by himself, and as a result, he cultivated new princes at the same time.
This is a palliative measure, but he will not do it, otherwise, even if the world is unified, it will not last long.
Today's troubled times happen to be a time of reshuffle and reorganization, which is why every time the world is in turmoil, it can be settled for a period of time.
This is because the forces of all parties have not yet re-established themselves and stabilized, and they have not once again established their own new forces.
"It's natural to have opinions, and they're not stupid, and besides, I just want to try, but some people can't wait so soon, I don't know which families they are?"
Liu Wei looked at Xu Shu and said, this time is just a temptation, and his knife will get heavier and heavier.
Look at where the bottom line of those big families is, if you can endure it all the time, then it will be like boiling a frog in warm water in the end.
In the end, those big families will find that even at that time, they are helpless when they want to resist.
Liu Wei thought about it, how can he be a bit like fighting a landlord, but he can't care so much, anyway, the purpose is the same, he wants to become the biggest landlord.
The real world will be under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.
"Hedong Wei family." Xu Shu replied and said.
"Well, I know about it." Liu Wei nodded after listening to Xu Shu's words and said.
Seeing this, Xu Shu withdrew, and now it's not early, and it's going to be a court meeting soon.
Although it is said that this is not a palace, this Taishou Mansion is not small, and the officials are not yet complete.
If it is undecided today, Liu Wei doesn't want to leave some rotten Confucians in the court.
After the world is stable, if you stay some old stubborn and stick to the bottom line, it's still okay.
But now it is absolutely impossible, at an extraordinary time, when it is an extraordinary opportunity, I don't want to keep those rotten people to scold me.
And if you scold, the key is that it will damage your reputation, if it spreads out, saying that you don't look down on people in the world, then it's too big to carry the pot.
The power of this public opinion is very clear to Liu Wei, who has traveled through modern times.
The modern Internet has developed to the point where people can be killed by relying on online public opinion.
And you don't need to take any responsibility, just spray and you're done.
If he really offends the scholars of the world, I am afraid that those people will smash themselves to death with Confucius's sage books.
Spitting stars can drown themselves, so they definitely won't do such a stupid thing.
……
Xupu County, since Zhuge Liang reminded himself last night because of Huang You's words, he began to prepare for dealing with Zhou Yu in advance the next day.
According to the time, it has been nearly 20 days since I left Xiangyang to Jiaozhou.
And now, in addition to the surrounding defensive states and counties, this attack on Xiangyang, His Majesty will inevitably send Jinyang's elite soldiers.
Therefore, the reinforcements sent from Jinyang, if they were not on the march, would have arrived in a few days.
If it's faster, it's likely to arrive within three days.
Sima Yi was waiting for this opportunity, if he didn't quickly repel Zhou Yu, and then let Shi Xie send troops as quickly as possible.
When the reinforcements and Xiangyang are in an emergency at the same time, then all this I have done will be in vain.
Only by rushing back as soon as possible, by that time, maybe everything will still be in time.
"Huang Taishou, you lead a thousand men and horses to march into Jufeng County from the small road, and when the time comes to Jufeng County, you only need to attack with great fanfare."
"But sir, what if it is discovered by Zhou Yu's people, and a thousand people are afraid that they will not be able to take Jufeng County." Huang You said with little confidence.
"Yes, I will personally cover for you when the time comes, as for Jufeng County, there are not many defenders in him, the more you move, they will inevitably be afraid and retreat, after all, Jiaozhou is not Jiangdong." Zhuge Liang smiled and said.
From that day's battle, I made a rough estimate of the number of troops led by Zhou Yu, and there were about 15,000 people.
In addition to the losses, he has now taken six of the seven counties of Jiuzhen County, which means that the men and horses he left behind are less than 1,000 in each county.
The counties have just won the Jiangdong soldiers who have just won Zhou Yu, and naturally they will not have a good impression of Zhou Yu, but Huang Younai is a native of Jiaozhou, so there is naturally no problem in subduing the counties.
Once Jufeng County is captured, Yufa County can be attacked, and when the time comes, the back road will be cut off, how can Zhou Yu not retreat.
If he didn't retreat at this time, he would probably never have the chance to retreat again, and it was impossible for Zhou Yu to gamble with their Jiangdong strength in order to cooperate with Sima Yi.
To some extent, Sima Yi is also his enemy, but now he is united because of his interests.
But the essence of it has not changed, that is, from the perspective of interests, that is, their Jiangdong interests are put first.
After Huang You understood Zhuge Liang's intentions, he didn't shirk it, how could he refuse when this could make him famous.
As long as you have prestige, then why worry about your own affairs?
Zhuge Liang soon went in the direction of Zhou Yu's big tent.
But what Zhuge Liang didn't know was that he didn't calculate Zhao Yun's speed, and his speed was faster than the budget.
