Volume 5 The General Trend of the World Chapter 129 Cao Rong Descends
In the post house, Xu Shu was rarely idle.
Take advantage of this idle effort. Xu Shu boiled a pot of tea, played a game of chess, and played against Adou.
Adou's chess skills are not brilliant, but they are better than 1,700 years of experience, you must know that after this 1,700 years of exhibition, many aspects of understanding and concepts have undergone earth-shaking changes, reflected on the chessboard, for a while Xu Shu was a little caught off guard.
However, Xu Shu's chess skills are very clever, and after the initial hurry, he gradually moved the situation back, and began to slowly gain the upper hand.
Speaking of which, Adou's mind is not on playing chess at this time, it has been five days since Xu Shu saw Cao Ei, but there has not been the slightest movement on Cao Ei's side. After all, this is Yecheng, the territory of Cao Rong, and Adou is still uneasy. Adou's psychological reaction to the chessboard is full of flaws, and a good start was slowly buried by Adou.
"Your Majesty, you are not attentive!" Xu Shu put down the chess pieces and slowly took a sip of tea. Then he said: "Your Majesty's mind is not on this chessboard, and the ministers are boring!" ”
"Teacher, it's been five days, so Cao Rong should have a reaction! Whether it will descend or not, he must have an explanation there! ”
"Two days ago, Cao Rong had already discussed it in the court, and I heard that the ministers were quiet." Xu Shu said very calmly.
"Teacher, it's really not good, let's leave Yecheng first!" Adou suggested.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, it's not time yet. Besides, I'm afraid that Cao Rong will not let the minister go so easily. If Cao Rong does not surrender, please leave Your Majesty, and the ministers will delay time for Your Majesty. ”
"How can this work?"
"Your Majesty rest assured, the minister has the law to save his life freely, if His Majesty wants to save the minister at that time, he can directly take Yecheng." Xu Shu's tone still showed a sense of relaxation.
"Teacher, don't worry, I have already prepared the method of escape." Adou said this, and waved his hand: "Zhang Wei, take it!" ”
"Yes!" Zhang Wei walked over, still holding a tray in his hand, and a hook-like thing was placed on the tray.
"Teacher, you see, this is a flying claw made by me, tied with a rope, and can climb the city wall. With this, we can easily climb over the walls of Yecheng. ”
At this moment, the little scholar walked in from outside, bowed down, and then said, "Sir." Wei lord Cao Rong came. ”
"It's finally here." Xu Shu let out a sigh, and then asked, "What kind of clothes is this Cao Rong wearing?" ”
"Mr. Hui, Cao Rong is wearing a white robe." The scholar replied.
"White robe...... Hehe, the big thing is decided, Cao Rong is here to surrender! Xu Shu finally laughed.
"Teacher, why do you say that?" Adou asked suspiciously.
"Your Majesty, Cao Rong is a scribe with a strict and respectful style. If he came in a dragon robe, he would have come to arrest me. And if he comes in a white robe, he will surely come and return. Those in white robes are also mourned! In the past, Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin, and Yan Dan gave it to him in a white robe, but today Cao Rong is wearing a white robe, which means that the Wei State is dead, and he, as the king, must sacrifice him in a white robe! ”
"This Cao Rong, if you have the kung fu to study what clothes to wear, it is better to learn more to lead the troops to fight, and learn more to learn how to govern the country, and you will not end up like this!" Adou sighed.
In his previous life, Adou was a martial artist, and he had no interest in writing poetry. So Adou naturally couldn't understand that Cao Rong still had the leisure to pick clothes at this time.
Looking at Adou's expression, Xu Shu smiled slightly, if it is a peaceful and prosperous world, as a monarch, this dance and writing can be passed down for centuries and leave a good story for the ages. But in these troubled times, it is not so appropriate for a monarch to concentrate on literature.
In the past, although Cao Cao was known as a generation of literary heroes, Cao Cao's strategy was more famous and powerful than his literature. When it came to Cao Pi, although his strategy was not as good as Cao Cao's, he could be regarded as a masterpiece, as for Cao Rong, his literary style was not as good as his grandfather and father, and there was a gap in leading the army to govern the country. In the era of peace, Cao Ei may be a good monarch, and if it is in troubled times, Cao Ei is barely good, but unfortunately, Cao Ei was born at the wrong time and met Adou!
"In the past 50 years, although the Central Plains has been in constant war, it has produced many talents! Hey, heroes come out of troubled times, how can there be mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people, providence, providence! Xu Shu let out a long sigh.
……
Cao Rong has descended!
The news spread all over Yecheng at the first time, and at the same time. Adou sent Zhang Wei to Huguan in person, and asked Huguan to take over Yecheng immediately.
Then, Xu Shu began to visit the real power figures in Yecheng one by one, and also used this to temporarily stabilize the situation in Yecheng and wait for the Han army to take over.
……
Cao Shuang barracks.
It was already ugly, and Cao Shuang, who had been busy all day, finally fell asleep.
"General!" Biqiu Jian's voice came, waking Cao Shuang up from his sleep, Cao Shuang turned over and got up, and at this time, Biqiu Jian also walked in.
"But an enemy attack?" Cao Shuang put on his robe and asked.
Biqiu Jian shook his head, looking like he wanted to say something.
"What the hell is going on, Biqiu, why are you mother-in-law**, say it quickly!"
"General, the big thing is not good, Yecheng has just sent out the news, Your Majesty, he ......"
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with him?"
"Your Majesty, he's descended!"
"What did you say!" Biqiu Jian's words hit Cao Shuang like a thunderbolt on a sunny day.
"Your Majesty, he's descended!" Biqiu Jian repeated again.
"Impossible, this impossible!" Cao Shuang seemed to find it difficult to accept this blow for a while, and he spoke incoherently.
In fact, it is no wonder that Cao Shuang led his troops to fight on the front line against the Han and Eastern Wu countries for several years, and the hardships and efforts were made. Only Cao Shuang himself knows, but Cao Rong surrendered, and Cao Shuang's efforts for so many years were in vain.
"How did it fall, why did it fall! I will still have hundreds of thousands of troops, how can he surrender! Cao Shuang's face was dazed, and there was a sense of confusion in his eyes.
Biqiu Jian, who was on the other side, saw Cao Shuang's appearance and knew that Cao Shuang was already on the verge of collapse, so Biqiu Jian hurriedly stepped forward and supported Cao Shuang, and said at the same time: "General, don't worry. We still have hundreds of thousands of troops, and we can still fight! Your Majesty has descended, but we will not descend! ”
"We don't drop ...... Yes, well said! We don't fall, I Cao Shuang doesn't fall! I have not avenged my great revenge, how can I surrender, and I still surrender to the enemy! I, Cao Shuang, would rather die than surrender! Cao Shuang's eyes suddenly flashed with infinite fighting spirit.
But in the next moment, Cao Shuang's expression became decadent again.
"Don't fall? If we don't surrender, who will provide me with grain and grass, without food, our hundreds of thousands of troops will not be able to last even a day! Cao Shuang sighed helplessly.
Although Cao Shuang has a lot of people, he also consumes a lot of grain and grass every day, unless it is a big country, he can't afford to raise so many people. If Cao Shuang does not fall, there will be no source of food, and when the food is exhausted, Cao Shuang's hundreds of thousands of troops will immediately fall apart. This also forced Cao Shuang to surrender if he didn't fall.
"General, the gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late, or let's leave Jizhou first, accumulate strength, and try to make a comeback!" Biqiu Jian spoke.
"Leaving Jizhou? Easier said than done! Youzhou in the north, Bingzhou in the west, and Yanzhou in the south have all been controlled by Liu Chan, and Qingzhou's has also fallen into the hands of Eastern Wu! Where can we escape! ”
"General, we can go to sea! I don't know if the general ever remembered, there is an island country east of the East China Sea, called Yamatai Kingdom, their queen Himihu admired our Middle-earth culture, and the first emperor once sent a messenger called Nanshengmi to Yecheng to meet the first emperor, and at that time, the emperor also rewarded the king seal and bronze mirror of the king of the country of Beimihu. Biqiu Jian spoke.
"Difficult to lift rice? That's right. I remember! There seems to be such a thing. ”
"General, let's take a boat to the east, go to Na Himiko first, and then slowly accumulate strength in order to restore the country! That country is separated from the sea by thousands of miles from me in the Middle Ages, and no matter how capable he is, he Liu Chan can't find us! Biqiu Jian spoke.
"To the Wa Kingdom?" Cao Shuang lowered his head and thought about it, but after a while, Cao Shuang shook his head.
"No, even if you go to the Wa Kingdom! Don't forget, you need to take the sea route to go to the Wa Kingdom, the sea is full of sailors of Soochow, we go to sea, if we are found by Soochow, the consequences are unimaginable. Besides, the coastal ports of Jizhou have been blocked by the Jiangdong Naval Division, and most of the naval vessels have also been swept away by the Dongwu Naval Division. ”
"General, I have a plan, I will be able to go to sea smoothly!"
"Biqiu, what else do you have to do?"
"General, as far as I know, although Sima Yi is now named the Metropolitan Governor of the Jiangdong Water 6 Army, in fact, the Water Army is not completely controlled by Sima Yi. This navy was originally commanded by 6 Sun, and the commanders of the navy, Quan Cong and Ding Feng, who are proficient in water warfare, are also people of the 6 Xun line. As for Zang Ai and Zhuge Dan, they have just joined the navy, and they can't fully understand the tactics of the navy at all. Therefore, now that the Jiangdong Navy is attacking my Leling, it is mainly Quan Cong and Ding Feng who lead the troops, and Zang Ai and Zhuge Dan are just responsible for the supply of grain and grass. ”
"So what! Sima Yi is cunning and cunning, although he can't fully control the Dongwu Navy for the time being, but it is only a matter of time before the Dongwu Navy completely falls under Sima Yi's control. ”
"General, that Quan Cong and Ding Feng are 6 Xun people, and they have always been disobedient to Sima Yiyang, we can take advantage of this, pretend to surrender to the two, make the two relax their vigilance, and then attack them back, recapture Leling, and snatch the Soochow warship under the command of the two. In this case, we will have warships to go to sea, and Soochow will have a lot of warships and it will be difficult to continue to blockade the sea, killing two birds with one stone!
