0672: Two Peach Kills Three Soldiers
In the past, Xiang Ji was defeated by Liu Bang in Xiaxia, and when he finally fled to the Wujiang Ferry, he chose to kill himself instead of crossing the river and returning to Jiangdong. From ancient times to the present day, everyone will give a different opinion.
Life is a hero, and death is also a ghost. So far, I think of Xiang Yu and refuse to cross Jiangdong.
Song Dynasty lyricist Li Qingzhao's poem [Summer Quatrain] is full of anger, which makes people yearn for it.
However, strictly speaking, Li Qingzhao's poem is not really a tribute to the book, but just to express the dissatisfaction and indignation in his heart. On the one hand, it was because of Jingkang's shame that most of the loyal Song people were extremely indignant, and on the other hand, or most importantly, because Li Qingzhao's husband Zhao Mingcheng was very cowardly.
By the way, not long after Li Qingzhao recited this "summer quatrain" on the edge of the Wujiang River, Zhao Mingcheng died of illness.
Having said that, in fact, the evaluation of the item is very extreme in many cases. The people's evaluation of Xiang Ji is generally good, and they all think that he is a big hero. The official evaluation of him is generally relatively negative, and the reason is very simple, the things that Xiang Ji did are simply the best wrong template in the eyes of many scholars.
It is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to sell the name of the overlord. This sentence is enough to say a lot of things. Perhaps Xiang is brave and brave in the world, and he has won a hundred battles since he joined the army, but he does not cultivate morality and does not understand politics, which eventually leads to the defection or flight of his subordinates, and he is even more enemies in the world.
But then again, did Xiang Ji really choose not to retreat to Jiangdong just because he was shameless in the face of Jiangdong's father? Not necessarily! Maybe the reason for this is just that Xiang Ji had already foreseen the fate after crossing the river, right? After all, Xiang Ji at that time was already a betrayal of his relatives, in this case, even if he crossed Jiangdong, who can be sure that those people in Jiangdong are still loyal to Xiang Ji?
Now, Yang Hong's book is a metaphor for Yuan Shu's current situation, on the one hand, he naturally wants to stimulate Yuan Shu, and on the other hand, he also wants to remind him. Because although Yuan Shu's situation is also very unoptimistic, it is obviously much better than the previous Xiangji.
And in the end, Yang Hong succeeded. Although Yuan Shu scolded Yang Hong, although Yuan Shu roared and said that he wanted to fight Liu Bei and Liu Quan to the death. But in the face of unfavorable situations such as lack of food, low morale, and the strength of the enemy army, Yuan Shu finally chose to retreat.
Of course, Yuan Shu was not kind enough to give Runan, Jiujiang, and Lujiang to Liu Biao and Liu Bei in vain. In a word, everything that can be taken away is taken away, whether it is money or beauty. What could not be taken away was burned out in one fire, leaving only Liu Bei and them with a large number of victims who had become extremely panicked in the face of famine.
This can't blame Yuan Shu for being too ruthless, in fact, Yang Hong and the others did not persuade Yuan Shu not to do this. Because war has always been like this, and what force will really think about the life and death of the people when it is at stake? What's more, this war was provoked by Liu Bei and them, although the ultimate source of the matter was still on Yuan Shu's side.
And then again, Yuan Shu was not as ruthless as Zhang Ning in the past, Zhang Ning at that time, but what Li Yi gave was 500,000 refugees who didn't even have a grain of food on them! And now, at least Yuan Shu did not order the troops to rob the people of their money and food. Well...... Maybe it's because you don't have that much time?
However, no matter what, under Yuan Shu's orders, Zhang Xun began to lead his army south from Runan, and Yuan Shu also began to withdraw his army. Hearing the news, although Liu Bei and Liu Biao were shocked that Yuan Shu chose to withdraw so easily, they were unwilling to give up the great opportunity in front of them. Soon, they sent people to seize the territory given by Yuan Shu, and even Cao Cao in the north couldn't bear to start grabbing the territory in the north of Runan.
As for the Chen army that retreated south, no one paid attention to it at all. However, it is no wonder that compared to taking the opportunity to expand the territory, it is obviously not a wise choice to pursue the Yuan army, which has more than 100,000 troops.
It's just that Liu Bei, Liu Biao and Cao Cao, and even all the people who pay attention to the battle situation here are still stunned by Yuan Shu's subsequent actions.
"How is that possible?! Yuan Shu actually gave up Jiujiang and Lujiang directly? Liu Bei looked at Jian Yong in shock, his face full of doubt and disbelief.
"Your Highness, this matter is true, according to General Taishi's report, it has now entered Jiujiang County, and wherever he goes, let alone resist, he can't see the shadow of Yuan Jun at all!" Jian Yong said with a shocked face.
"How is this possible?!" Liu Bei still looked incredulous, but no wonder, after all, no matter how you listen to this kind of thing, you will feel that it is a lie. In fact, not only Liu Bei, but even other people also had an unbelievable look.
Just when everyone was in shock, a crisp voice came into everyone's ears, but it was Zhuge Liang, "Father, the child thinks that this must be a plan to kill three soldiers!" It's just that the two peaches that Yuan Shu took out this time are really hard to refuse......
"Two peaches kill three soldiers? But that's Runan County and Jiujiang County! Liu Bei said with a little trembling when he heard his words.
"Your Highness! The subordinates thought that what the son said was extremely true, and if the subordinates expected it to be good, I am afraid that Yuan Shu would give up Lujiang County! Chen Deng, who was on the side, also reacted at this time, and said with a serious expression, "In this way, whether His Royal Highness, the King of Chu, and the Duke of Zheng want to or not, it is impossible for them to continue to crusade against Yuan Shu regardless of these three places!" ”
"Yes, in this way, there will definitely be a conflict between the three parties, and Yuan Shu only needs to watch the fire from the other side and wait for the opportunity." Xun Di opened his mouth and agreed.
"Humph! Isn't he afraid that after I and the King of Chu directly divide Jiujiang and Lujiang, we will continue to go south to crusade against him?! Liu Bei snorted coldly when he heard this.
Hearing Liu Bei's words, no one answered, because there was no need to answer at all. In fact, Liu Bei really didn't plan anyone to answer him, because this kind of thing is impossible if you think about it a little.
Not to mention that what Zhuge Liang and the others said is very likely to happen, with the current strength of Yuan Shu alone, it is enough for Liu Bei and the others to suppress all the thoughts in their hearts. After all, he took away the soldiers of Runan, Peiguo, Jiujiang, and Lujiang! Counting the troops of Danyang and other counties, the number has definitely exceeded 300,000!
And the most important thing is that after retreating to Jiangnan, if Liu Bei wants to pursue, he must cross the Yangtze River, which is an impossible task for Liu Bei, who does not have any naval army at all. And although Liu Biao has a naval army, if Liu Bei does not send troops, how can Liu Biao attack Yuan Shu alone?
"Pass my order, let Ziyi quickly control Jiujiang, and at the same time find an opportunity to invade Lujiang." Liu Bei said in a deep voice, "In addition, Shu Zhi, Ba Hou, and Zi Fang, the three of you will immediately lead the army to attack the west, and occupy some cities as much as possible!" ”
After saying that, Liu Bei thought for a while and then added, "Remember, never clash with the troops of King Chu and Duke Zheng!" ”
"No!"
At the same time that Liu Bei continued to give orders, Liu Biao and Cao Cao also issued similar orders almost at the same time. Like Liu Bei, in the face of the huge, juicy, and delicious peaches thrown by Yuan Shu, even if they knew that it was a trick, they had to bite into it.
On the other side, after Yuan Shu crossed the Yangtze River with the army, he marched all the way to Nanchang City, Yuzhang County. Just halfway through the journey, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were ushered in.
"Father! Erchen and others are fortunate to live up to their lives, and they have already occupied Yuzhang and captured Liu Xuan, the king of Han, alive! Sun Ce and Zhou Yu said loudly.
"Really? It's hard work children. Yuan Shu responded a little weakly, and he had always looked worried, but now he finally had a smile.
Although Yuan Shu finally agreed to carry out Zhou Yu's plan and led his army south to cross the Yangtze River and retreat to the south of the Yangtze River, deep down, he was obviously still a little unable to accept this reality. So after entering Jiujiang County, he fell ill.
"Father's condition ......" Seeing Yuan Shu's appearance, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu asked with concern.
"It's okay, it's just that I feel the wind and cold...... Yuan Shu said with a smile, "What about Bo Rong?" Didn't you come back with the army? ”
"Brother Wang is preparing in Nanchang, and at the same time guarding against Liu Biao's attack." Sun Ce hurriedly said when he heard this.
Hearing this, Yuan Shu's expression showed a hint of relief. How could he not guess Sun Ce's intentions? It's just to take this opportunity to let Yuan Yao get some credit, after all, even if these things are handed over to Sun Ce's subordinates, they can be easily achieved.
"Bo Fu, Gong Jin, this time you have made great contributions, and you will be named Bo Fu as the king of Wu, the general of the chariot cavalry, and responsible for guarding Wu County. Gong Jin, you are the king of Yue, General Wei, guarding Danyang. With the two of you here, I believe that Liu Bei will never be able to pass the Yangtze River. Yuan Shu looked at the two and smiled.
"Father?!" When Sun Ce and Zhou Yu heard this, they suddenly became a little flustered. Although they did guess what kind of reward Yuan Shu would give to the two of them once Jiangdong was pacified, they never thought that Yuan Shu would directly crown them king.
"Hehe, since you call me father, isn't it natural for you to be crowned a prince?" Yuan Shu chuckled when he heard this, then yawned, waved his hand a little tiredly, and said, "I'm a little tired, you guys go down." ”
Speaking of which, Yuan Shu seemed to finally remember what he had been ignoring all along, "...... that Liu Shu Well...... I'll leave it to you. ”
"No!" Sun Ce and Zhou Yu hurriedly responded when they heard this.
Jizhou, Nanpi City, Bohai County.
"Did the highway choose to retreat to Jiangnan? Alas, why bother in the first place? Yuan Shao shook his head and sighed. In his tone, there was a trace of helplessness, a trace of emotion, and more of an indescribable emotion.
"Lord, this is a plan for two peaches to kill three soldiers, in this way, even if the three parties of Zheng Gong, King Qi, and King Chu do not move for the time being, there will be a battle sooner or later." Xu You said with a chuckle.
"Well......" Yuan Shao lowered his head and thought about it when he heard this, and after a long while, he raised his head and said to Xu You, "Ziyuan, I bother you to write a letter and send someone to Yanzhou, and strive to bring Meng Da over." ”
"No!" Hearing this, Xu Yu complied, but then said again, "Lord, the eldest prince wrote that Xianbei had been repelled by Zhao Gong, and now, it seems that it has been split into four forces, and they are attacking each other. ”
"Oh?" Yuan Shao looked at Xu Yu suspiciously.
Seeing this, Xu You said in a deep voice, "My lord, according to the words of the eldest prince, Youbeiping in Youzhou and the north of Liaoxi are headed by the new Youxian Wang Suli, with nearly 80,000 troops. And in the western part of the Saiwai region, because the Zuoxian King Fu Luo Han was killed, and now it has completely fallen into chaos, and Xianbei Shan Yu Budugen, the recently rising tribal leader Kebineng, and others are attacking each other and fighting for control of the western part of the Saiwai......"
"Ziyuan means ......"
"The subordinates thought that they could send someone to contact Na Suli to see if they could win him over to the lord's side." Xu Yu said respectfully.
"This ...... Didn't you hear that the Xianbei people and the Wuhuan people didn't deal with each other? I'm afraid it won't be that easy, right? Yuan Shao said with some hesitation.
"Lord, although there is indeed some mismatch between Wuhuan and Xianbei, the Wuhuan people are now attached to the lord. If the lord intends to win over the Xianbei people, will they still dare to disobey?! Moreover, Yan Jungang, the captain of Wuhuan, has a very high reputation in the hearts of Wuhuan people. If he comes forward to persuade him, I believe that there will be no chaos. And if you can win Su Li over, you can get tens of thousands ......of elite cavalry for nothing," Xu You persuaded with a smile.
"Well, then it's decided, let Xiansi do it." Yuan Shao pondered for a moment and then nodded in response.
"No!"
"By the way, notify the local government to step up the training of soldiers and horses, we can't wait any longer!" Yuan Shao spoke again. Now it has been nearly two years since Yuan Shao captured Youzhou, and although Youzhou has not fully recovered, it is enough to support Yuan Shao to start a war.
"My subordinates understand." Xu You nodded, and then after discussing some things with Yuan Shao, he turned around and left.
August, Sofang County.
"Leader of the bony process! Have you really forgotten the glory of our Hu people?! Nasus looked at Bi Gu with a hideous expression and asked loudly, "Are you really willing to obey Li Yi's orders and let the entire tribe be enslaved by him?!" ”
"Look at you now, where do you still have the appearance of the descendants of the wolf god?! They don't speak nonsense, they don't wear uniforms, and even many of the children really think of themselves as Han Chinese......" Nasus roared, gesturing with his hands, looking very excited.
"Alas...... This is the trend of the times, and how can human power change it? And over the years, the gods have not condemned us, on the contrary, they have been smooth and rainy all the years, and even the previous disasters have hardly affected everyone's lives......" Bisketu said calmly looking at Nasus.
"Nasus, I know you can't forget your father's feud, but no one will be willing to help you in Merge now. Maybe some people have not forgotten the glory of belonging to the Hu people, but how dare they resist Zhao Gong? Bi Gu Tu sighed, "Give up, be an ordinary person and live well......"
Before he could finish speaking, Nasus had already turned and left. Looking at his distant back, Bibony sighed helplessly again.
