Eighty-three times to the north
After three days, Qiao Ren was still taking care of the battlefield in the ruins of Wulin, and after a big battle, all kinds of things were cumbersome, and Qiao Ren, the protector, deserved to perform his duties. At this time, Zhang Wen, who went to inquire about the news, happened to come back, and after Qiao Ren burned Chibi, he sent Zhang Wen to inquire about Cao Ying's news, and he only returned.
Qiao Ren hurriedly sent down the matter in his hand and asked, "Hui Shu."
, have you found out Cao Ying's whereabouts? ”
Zhang Wen hurried back to Chibi without sleeping all night, he was exhausted at this time, so he only reacted after hearing Qiao Ren's question, and said, "Back to the guard, Guan Yu let Cao Ying go." Now he has returned to the north safely. ”
Although the development of things did not exceed Qiao Ren's expectations, he was inevitably a little disappointed when he heard that Cao Ying returned to the north safe and sound, but when he saw Zhang Wen with a dark circle under his eyes in front of him, Qiao Ren still said: "Huishu has worked hard, let's rest quickly." ”
After sending Zhang Wen away, Qiao Ren was still pondering for the future development, since he had crossed over and became an important figure in the Sun Wu regime, he naturally would not let history continue to follow the original track and end up in a three-point world. However, just as Qiao Ren was pondering, a soldier came to report, saying that Xu Shu was asking to see him.
In less than half an hour, Xu Shu, who was dressed in a Confucian belt and a sword, appeared in front of Qiao Ren's eyes, Qiao Ren first saluted and then asked, "I don't know what happened to General Yuanzhi?" ”
Xu Shu's dark face was still a little angry, and he said: "General Qiao, when my mother was a guest in Wu County for a long time, I missed my mother very much, and asked the general to send my mother home." ”
It turned out that when Liu Beijun went to Fankou, Xu Shu already knew that Xu's mother was in Qiao Ren's hands, but at that time, Sun and Liu Alliance resisted Cao, and Xu's mother would be fine even in Wu County, and Liu Bei was pursued by Cao Ying several times at that time, and it was not safe to follow Xu Shu. After a few calculations, Xu Shu felt that it was best not to mention this matter, but now that Cao Ying had been defeated and the prospects of the Sun-Liu Alliance were worried, of course Xu Shu would come to ask Qiao Ren.
Qiao Ren didn't deny it when he heard this, and said: "Liu Yuzhou was defeated in Dangyang, and by chance, Lingtang was rescued by my subordinates. Ren was afraid that Lingtang would be lost, and seeing that he was old and died, he sent him to Wu County for resettlement, and he didn't want to be busy with affairs for a few months, so he neglected to inform the general, and asked Brother Yuan Zhi to forgive me. ”
Lies** naked lies, as long as it is a normal person, they will not believe what Qiao Ren said, let alone a talent like Xu Shu. Sure enough, hearing Qiao Ren's explanation, Xu Shu was even more angry and said: "Now that the war is over, please send the escort back to my mother." ”
Qiao Ren didn't hesitate when he saw that Xu Shu was angry, and said with a smile: "Brother Yuanzhi, since you miss Lingtang, Ren can order someone to send Lingtang to Fankou, how about it?" ”
Xu Shu really couldn't figure out why Qiao Ren was so easy to speak, but since his goal had been achieved, Xu Shu couldn't ask too much, after all, Liu Bei was still in the stage of sending people under the fence, and it was not a good choice to offend Qiao Ren.
"Thank you so much." In order to alleviate the previous embarrassment, Xu Shu also deliberately changed his title.
Qiao Ren said indifferently: "Brother Yuan doesn't have to be like this. It's just that the old man's health is not very good, and he needs to take more care of it in the future. ”
After the Battle of Chibi, Zhou Yu, the Jiangxia Taishou, officially issued a request to the imperial court. Of course, Zhou Yu's ambitions were more than these, as soon as the war was over, Zhou Yu led the army to go up and take Jiangling (Nanjun Zhishuo). And Qiao Ren of Chibi also sent the news and led the army to Jiangling to stand by.
Of course, at this time, there were three people in Jiangxia Taishou, and Zhou Yu led Jiangxia County to govern Xiakou and controlled Nanjiangxia. The Wenpin appointed by Cao Ying, the Jiangxia Taishou Governor, controlled the northern part of the former Jiangxia County. And Liu Qi, the original authentic Jiangxia Taishou, in addition to the northern part of being taken away by Wenpin, the southern part has long fallen into the hands of Zhou Yu, and the territory has shrunk to the north bank of the Yangtze River.
As for Liu Bei, after a big battle, he suddenly found that he was the only one who had gained nothing. It seems that Sun Ce has benefited the most, and so far, he still has no official foothold. The so-called Fankou was nominally given to him by Sun Ji, and as for Jiangxia, although because of Liu Qi's serious illness, the people he installed were constantly encroaching on Liu Qi's power, but nominally Jiangxia still belonged to Liu Qi.
What is different from the original history is that the four southern counties of Jingzhou now belong to Sun Ce, and they are no longer four counties but six counties. Liu Bei suddenly found that looking at the whole world, he seemed to have no way out except to go to the northern counties of Jing.
In Jiangling, Nanjun, Zhou Yu spent less than three days to uproot Cao Ren's stronghold on the south bank of Jiangling, and now he and Cao Ren are across the river from Jiangling, and in Zhou Yu's eyes, Cao Ren's remnants of soldiers may be difficult to stop him. Therefore, Zhou Yu celebrated his achievements in the big tent for the first time, and all the soldiers and generals were rejoicing.
In the big tent, Zhou Yu, Qiao Ren, Lu Su and other important generals were all celebrating in moderation, and suddenly heard that Liu Beijun's envoy Sun Qian was visiting outside the tent, and everyone was confused for a while. Zhou Yu asked, "What does Sun Qian say about his origin?" ”
The guard replied: "Sun Cheng said that he came to congratulate the governor on behalf of Liu Yuzhou. ”
"Congratulations?" Zhou Yu became more and more confused, but after all, Sun Qian was Liu Bei's envoy, and it didn't hurt to see him. "Send him in."
Not long after, Sun Qian entered the big tent of the Chinese army, and saw a group of Eastern Wu generals drinking wine and eating meat, and felt hot for a while, he didn't know how many years since he followed Liu Bei, and now although the battle of Chibi was won, it really has nothing to do with them.
"What did Sun do here?" Zhou Yu asked while elegantly nibbling on the chicken legs. On the side, Qiao Ren secretly said in his heart, "I am afraid that Zhou Yu is the only one who can eat chicken legs so elegantly."
Sun Qian saluted Zhou Yu before he spoke: "Back to the governor, my lord sent a certain person to congratulate the governor on his victory, and sent wine and meat to reward the army." ”
Zhou Yu's army was 60,000 people, but Liu Bei spent a lot of money in order to reward him, and almost emptied his pocket. But in Zhou Yu's eyes, these are not the point, the point is what Liu Bei is doing now? Sure enough, Zhou Yu asked, "Where is Liu Yuzhou?" ”
Sun Qian had already prepared to reply to this: "My lord is now stationed at the mouth of the oil river. ”
Zhou Yu silently calculated the location of the mouth of the oil river in his heart, and asked again: "Mr. Zhuge is also there." ”
Sun Qian was direct this time and said, "Yes." ”
Zhou Yu's heart suddenly burst when he heard this, the key location of the mouth of the oil river is not far from the garrison of the Wu army, and Liu Beitun's intentions here are a little bad. However, Sun Qian obviously didn't show it obviously when he was still in Zhou Yu, but said: "It's hard work, please go back and tell Liu Yuzhou thank you for your kindness." ”
When Sun Qian came out of the big tent, Zhou Yu's expression was no longer relaxed and freehand. When the generals in the tent saw that Zhou Yu's face had changed and no longer drank wine and ate meat, Lu Su first asked: "Governor, Liu Bei's move is strange." ”
When Zhou Yu heard this, he flashed around and pointed to the map and said: "Liu Bei's army is really ill-intentioned, please see, this position is critical, Liu Bei is probably seizing this place in order to plot Jiangling." Hmph, my army has spent so much money and food soldiers, and he Liu Bei now wants to come and steal Nanjun, unless I, Zhou Yu, am gone. ”
Looking at the angry Zhou Yu, Qiao Ren was also a little apprehensive in his heart, for fear that Zhou Yu would suffer an arrow wound in order to forcibly take Nanjun like in history, so he said: "I don't know if the governor has a plan." ”
Zhou Yu's anger also subsided a little when he heard this, and said: "What can be done, the governor of Bendu plans to go to see Liu Bei tomorrow, if he really has the heart to take Nanjun, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”
For the destruction of Liu Bei, the generals have no psychological burden, although Sun Liu is an alliance, but at the time of the Battle of Chibi, Liu Bei was purely playing soy sauce, and now he wants to pick peaches, and the generals of Eastern Wu must be unhappy. Of course, except for Lu Su, I saw him hurriedly come out and say: "Don't be the governor." We formed an alliance with Liu Bei to fight against Cao Ying, and although Cao Ying has been defeated, it is never known when he will make a comeback, and we must not destroy our allies. Besides, the previous plan for us was just to take the east of Jiangling, and Ming said that Su asked to accompany the governor to meet Liu Bei, can you! ”
Of course, Zhou Yu knew that Sun Ce was already preparing to go north to Huainan, and now that he had to divide his troops into two ways to march north, the strength of Eastern Wu might be difficult to support, and the most important thing was that Eastern Wu still lacked the ability to compete head-on with Cao Ying's foot cavalry, and also needed to rely on the strength of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. Therefore, as soon as Lu Su said that Zhou Yu calmed down, after thinking about it carefully, he agreed to Lu Su. -------------------------------------------------------------- three more offered, ask for recommendation, ask for collection
