Lu Xun mentioned the crusade against the alien race, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked at each other again.

The two of them stood up and said to Lu Xun: "The King of Wei is crusading against foreign races, and the two of us are willing to be pioneers!" ”

"The two generals have their minds, and I will tell the lord." Lu Xun smiled and nodded, and then he asked the two, "Don't the two generals think it's time to change their words?" ”

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were stunned.

The two of them said to Lu Xun: "What General Lu said is that from now on, we are willing to follow the lord wholeheartedly. ”

In the wing room in the front yard of the official mansion, after talking with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei for a while, Lu Xun ordered someone to arrange a place for them.

Hanzhong has recently experienced a series of wars, and some of the people in the city have fled to other places.

All the people who fled, Lu Xun filled their houses into the government.

When the war came, most of the people who fled were rich and noble.

Only the rich and noble can get more news before the war comes, and judge whether to flee or not.

The so-called money can buy life, that's what it says!

The rich and noble families who fled happened to vacate a lot of empty houses.

These houses, Lu Xun simply used them to house officials.

Cao Shuo has never been very harsh on officials.

They can live in a spacious house and have a high salary every year.

But as an official under Cao Shuo, it is not difficult for three or five generations to live a luxurious life.

While giving officials high salaries, Cao Shuo is also stepping up efforts to combat corruption.

Anyone who dares to corrupt a copper plate will also be stripped of his official position and will not be hired!

The rich rewards and the strictness of corruption control have long been clear and clear under Cao Shuo's rule, and even in places far away from Shouchun, there is no corruption at all.

The cost of corruption is too high, and who else would be stupid enough to do that?

It was precisely because Cao Shuo was not very harsh on officials that Lu Xun dared to take the mansions of those rich and noble people who fled for official use.

Regardless of whether those people will come back, even if they do, they will have to buy another property.

When the war came, fleeing from their homeland was a defection, and this order that Lu Xun once gave caused many fleeing people to never dare to return to Hanzhong.

Even if someone comes back, he will not be stupid enough to ask the government for an explanation because of a house.

After sending Guan Yu and Zhang Fei away, Lu Xun returned to the backyard study.

After entering the house, he said to Cao Shuo: "Lord, Guan Yunchang and Zhang Yide have settled down, and I also told them that the lord will definitely crusade against foreign races in the future." ”

"What do they say?" Cao Shuo raised his head and asked.

"The two of them expressed their stance that the lord was crusading against foreign races, and they were willing to follow him to the death!"

"The Central Plains have been in turmoil for many years, and the alien race has brought too much suffering to the Central Plains." Cao Shuo said: "Over the years, I have been thinking about how to completely erase the alien race from the sight of the Central Plains. It's a pity that we Central Plains people are attacking each other, and we don't even care that there are countless pairs of tigerish eyes around us. Heroes are everywhere, and they all want to get a piece of the pie in the troubled times. Fortunately, the war is coming to an end, and if the war continues, we don't know what will happen in the future. ”

"That's what the lord said." Lu Xun replied: "In fact, in addition to the lord, there are many people who also have the same worries, but the troubled times are complicated, and even if they are worried, they can't do anything......"

"In my early years, I fought against the Xiongnu and the Qianren." Cao Shuo said: "I thought that the people would stop a little, but I didn't expect them to die with the heart of China......

Speaking of this, Cao Shuo's words changed, and he said to Lu Xun: "Bo Yan, you come and see these. ”

Approaching Cao Shuo, Lu Xun looked down at the map: "This is the map of Yizhou." ”

"Fa Xiao sent back the news directly, saying that Zhuge Liang led the army to retreat to Rongcheng." Cao Shuo said: "I looked at the map, although Chengdu is a plain, but the road to Rongcheng is mountainous. Moreover, Rongcheng itself is also a mountainous area, where the Yangtze River, Jinsha River and Minjiang River meet. I'm afraid that the battle of Fa Xiaozhi will not be so easy to achieve. ”

"Does the lord have any instructions?" Lu Xun asked.

"Outside the general, the military order is not subject to it." Cao Shuo said: "There is only one thing I can help him. ”

Looking at Cao Shuo, Lu Xun didn't ask anything.

He knew very well that as long as Cao Shuo wanted to say, even if he didn't ask, he would definitely give him an answer.

"When Zhuge Liang arrives in Rongcheng, he will definitely rely on the Sanjiangkou to intercept our army." Cao Shuo said: "The only way for Fa Xiaozhi to break through Rongcheng is to build a pontoon bridge on the water. ”

"Pontoon?" Lu Xun said: "The pontoon bridge is wobbly, and it is difficult to pass through the army. ”

"Has Bo Yan forgotten the Battle of Chibi back then?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Of course I do." Lu Xun said: "Back then, I was still fighting for the Sun family in Jiangdong, and the Lord ordered the army to build a pontoon bridge on the Yangtze River......"

Speaking of this, Lu Xun stopped, he looked at Cao Shuo and asked, "The lord wants to ......?"

"The water flow in Chibi is turbulent, and our army can still lay a pontoon bridge there, not to mention the mouth of the three rivers." Cao Shuo said: "The Yangtze River is wide, but the Min River and the Jinsha River are not so wide. What Fa Xiaozhi has to do is to choose a place to cross the river on one of the rivers. ”

"At the beginning, the lord crossed the Yangtze River by surprise, but now Zhuge Liang is like a frightened bird, he will never give our army the opportunity to build a pontoon bridge." Lu Xun said: "However, Yizhou lacks a naval army, they are entrenched on the other side of the Sanjiang estuary, as long as our army takes advantage of the naval army, it is not impossible to break it." It's a pity ......"

Speaking of this, Lu Xun paused.

Although Cao Shuo's naval army was strong, they were all in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and did not advance along the west.

"Bo Yan sent someone to send a letter to Fa Xiaozhi, saying that he should not rush into the army, and the army would advance to the north of Rongcheng, just garrison it." Cao Shuo instructed: "Wait for the navy to come to the mouth of the three rivers." ”

"The lord has already ordered the navy army to rush to the mouth of the mountain river?" I didn't expect Cao Shuo to think so thoroughly, Lu Xun was stunned.

"The order was also given when I was in Luoyang, counting the days, it will only take a month at most, and the navy should be able to arrive." Cao Shuo replied: "The Yangtze River Naval Army was led by General Zhang Yun in Jingzhou at the beginning. They haven't experienced war in all these years, and now it's time for them to really fight on the battlefield. ”

When Cao Shuo was still in Luoyang, Fa Zheng had not yet crossed Micang Mountain.

Before the Battle of Langzhong broke out, he actually thought of transferring the naval army from the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River to the source of the Yangtze River.

It can be seen what kind of foresight he has in terms of strategic layout.

For a moment, Lu Xun was glad that he had chosen to surrender.

It's really terrible to be an opponent with someone like Cao Shuo!

"I'll send someone to Yizhou to give an order to Fa Xiaozhi." Lu Xun said: "But my lord, I don't know whether to say or not to say something. ”

"Bo Yan just say it!" Cao Shuo motioned for him to continue.

"Fa Xiaozhi is crusading against Yizhou for the lord, and the purpose is actually to kill Liu Xuande." Lu Xun said: "Now that Liu Xuande is dead, is it ......?" 2k reading web
