Chapter 270: The arrogant Sun Quan
Wu County, in front of the Wuhou Mansion.
Sun Quan was surrounded by a group of guards.
He wore a military uniform and held a spear, and practiced martial arts in the school grounds.
"Drink." With a loud shout, the spear in Sun Quan's hand turned into a shadow of a gun in the sky, and the killing machine was pervasive.
This wonderful posture has to be applauded by anyone who sees it.
Father and brother are both fierce generals, Sun Quan's family lineage, although it is not very good, but it is still easy to get some beautiful moves and move your muscles.
"Whew." The shadow of the gun in the sky finally turned into a straight stab, and then Sun Quan put away the gun and stood up. Let out a long breath.
The own guard handed over the handkerchief.
Sun Quan picked up a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead, his face showing a trace of exhaustion.
This time, Sun Quan did not have an easy time.
On one side, Zhou Yu and the guards from all over the country, even the battles and victories, and the wars that occurred in the Shanyue riots, the Sun clan has gradually gained the upper hand.
There were 200,000 or 300,000 people in Shanyue who surrendered.
But Sun Quan was not interested in these good news at all.
His attention was all on Jiangxia, the five cities in Jiangbei.
Cao Ren attacked the five cities in Jiangbei, pulled out the city, and then crossed the Yangtze River to invade Jiangxia. Or do you only occupy five cities in Jiangbei and accept it when you see it?
This is something that Sun Quan cares about.
Because he was too worried, Sun Quan couldn't sleep at night. I had to kill some physical strength during the day before I could barely sleep.
After wiping his sweat, Sun Quan handed the spear in his hand to the guard.
Counting the time in his heart, with Cao Ren's ability, the battle report ahead is about to come, right?
At this moment, Lu Su walked in from outside, holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, looking in a hurry.
Sun Quan was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurried up to meet him. Asked anxiously: "Zijing, but the battle report ahead?" ”
"It's a battle report from Ryucheng." When Lu Su saw Sun Quan coming up, he couldn't help but stop, smiled bitterly, and handed the battle report in his hand to Sun Quan.
Lu Su's expression shocked Sun Quan's heart.
Could it be that something is so unexpected? Against all odds? Could it be that Cao Ren was defeated?
Impossible, how is this possible, Cao Ren's army is of good quality, even surpassing the Jiangdong soldiers. At the beginning, Gong Jin led less than 10,000 Jiangdong soldiers to attack Jiangxia, which also forced Liu Feng to be embarrassed.
What's more, Cao Ren has 23,000 brave and good soldiers.
Therefore, Sun Quan quickly discarded the absurd conclusion in his mind, reached out and opened the bamboo slip, concentrating on the handwriting line by line.
But as he looked at the line by line, Sun Quan's blue eyes opened wider and wider, and in the end, they were almost the same as copper bells, and the turquoise eyes were like a jewel.
It's just that this gem carries a strong personal emotion that is unbelievable.
In addition, the sweat that had just been wiped off Sun Quan's forehead came out again.
It's not that Sun Quan's cultivation is poor, and the city government is low. It's that what happened ahead is really unbelievable, a thing that was supposed to be nine out of ten, but it actually went wrong.
Anyone will have a hellish look on their face.
The shock in Sun Quan's heart did not calm down until a long time.
When he calmed down, what Sun Quan did was not to speak, but to reach out and wipe the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve.
Lu Su watched silently, when he first received this battle report, the shock was no less than that of Sun Quan.
"Fire Bull Formation. After this battle, if Liu Feng can absorb six or seven percent of Cao Ren's soldiers and horses, his strength will definitely increase greatly. The fame has spread all over the country. No less than Liu Bei. After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Sun Quan said with difficulty.
Jiangdong and Liu Feng have a grudge, and they have a hatred of seizing generals.
Now that Liu Feng's strength has risen, Sun Quan feels even more pressure.
"If this is the case, there will be thirty or forty thousand troops alone. According to the news, Liu Feng is still migrating people to Jiangxia on a large scale, and there may be a million people under his rule by then. If so, it is no less than Jiangdong. Lu Su also sighed and said.
What could be more terrible than the rise of the enemy's power?
No, I don't.
"That's not all, news came from Xiangyang earlier that Liu Feng was going to marry Cai's and Huang's women." As he spoke, Sun Quan paused, and his eyes burst with extremely strong jealousy.
"In the past, Liu Biao was still there, and the Cai family was still able to control it, but now that Liu Biao is gone, the Cai family and the Kuai family are united, and the power is monstrous. The Huang clan's prestige among the scholars is unmatched. If Liu Fengzhen marries the women of these two families, the land of Jingchu will be his. ”
"During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Jing Chu was always strong, while Wu Yue was weak. Although there are personal factors, the location is also a major constraint. There are too many mountains in my Jiangdong River, too much, and I can't eradicate them in ten or twenty years. And the only Yi tribe in Jingchu is only the Wuxi barbarians. The difference is too big, too big. If Liu Feng gets Jing Chu, the scholars will return to their hearts. The threat is no less than Cao Ying. ”
As a sentence came out of his mouth, the jealousy in Sun Quan's eyes became deeper and deeper, deeper and deeper, and in the end, it was monstrous.
What followed was a thick murderous intention.
"My lord." Lu Su was shocked in his heart, Sun Quan is the most decisive, and the killing machine that is said today is equivalent to sending troops in the future.
At this time, Jiangdong was still in the midst of the Shanyue Rebellion. Even if he survived the rebellion, he did not recover in a year or two, and Jiangdong was unable to fight again.
It's not the time to send troops at all.
And another taboo is the fire bull array. That formation is too strong, Liu Feng can put out a fire bull array, then put out a second fire bull array.
"If the lord is worried that Liu Feng will get Jing Chu, there is no need." Lu Su said in a low voice, raised his head and glanced at Sun Quan, Sun Quan barely suppressed the murderous intent in his eyes, and listened to Lu Su speak.
Seeing this, Lu Su relieved his mind a little, and continued to whisper: "Cao Ying's unification of the north is a foregone conclusion, and after the unification of the north, it is natural to go south and attack Jingchu and Wu Yue." ”
"And at present, Jing Chu is weak, Wu is stronger, if Cao Ying really goes south, Jing Chu must be the first to bear the brunt. The Cai family, the Kuai family has a big business, and Cao Ying's power is too strong, if they go south, the two will definitely surrender. So this Jingzhou must not be Liu Feng's, but Cao Ying's. ”
As he spoke, a wise gaze appeared in Lu Su's eyes, as well as a strong sense of confidence. Lu Su is undoubtedly a wise man, and he has been able to deduce some future changes from the current situation.
But after Sun Quan heard this, he frowned even more.
After thinking about it for a while, Sun Quan said with difficulty: "If it is according to what Zijing said, Cao Ying has won Jing Chu and has strong power. When the time comes, won't Jiangdong also have to surrender? ”
"Not really. There is also a Liu Feng in front of him. If Cao Ying went south and attacked Jiangdong in the east, he would definitely have to pass through Jiangxia. When the time comes, the two males fight. There must have been countless casualties. Our Jiangdong University can sweep the two armies with the sharpness of the Wu sword. You can enter and occupy Jingchu, and no matter how bad it is, you can also occupy Jiangxia and sweep away Liu Feng. Lu Su smiled slightly and raised his fist.
"So, the stronger Liu Feng is, the more beneficial we are?" After thinking about it for a while, Sun Quan felt that Lu Su's words were very reasonable, and not only was he jealous, but a smile flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, yes." Lu Su nodded with a smile.
When Sun Quan heard this, he completely relaxed. It's just that Lu Su mentioned the Wu knife just now, and Sun Quan said with concern: "What is the output of the knife now?" ”
Wu Dao's matter is very secret, it can be said to be Sun Quan's killer weapon, of course, it must be handed over to the most trusted person to manage, and the most trusted person is Lu Su.
"Only 2,000 stems were made." Lu Su said with a little shame on his face when he heard this.
"Two thousand?" Sun Quan's brows couldn't help but lock up again when he heard this, at present, the craftsmen under Lu Su's tent almost cover all the skilled blacksmiths in Jiangdong, and after a few months, they have only built a mere two thousand handles.
This is too disproportionate compared to the amount of manpower and resources expended.
Moreover, the Wu knife is another weapon with a surname volatilization, which is really too much of a loss.
However, when Sun Quan thought of the sharpness of Wu Dao, he was relieved. Extraordinary knives, rare ones are also a matter of course.
"Step up the forging, be sure to make a lot of manufacturing, in preparation for a duel with Cao Ying and Liu Feng." The frowning brows smoothed slightly, and Sun Quan nodded.
"No." Lu Su responded.
"Now that the war is over, then I also order Zhou Tai to lead his troops back and continue to suppress Shanyue." Sun Quan said again.
Previously, Sun Quan thought that Cao Ren would win, so he ordered Zhou Tai to lead his headquarters to settle on the border of Jiangxia and move at the right time. And now that Liu Feng has won a big victory, Zhou Tai's soldiers and horses are meaningless.
"No." Lu Su answered again.
Sun Quan Lu Su Junchen may be the only one who remains optimistic after knowing the news and intends to use Liu Feng.
Xiangyang, in Cai's study.
Cai Mao and Kuai Yue sat opposite each other, Cai Mao's face was no longer calm, and Kuai Yue's face was also indifferent in the past.
Both of their faces were filled with sadness.
"Hey." After a long silence, the two sighed almost at the same time. Then they glanced at each other, and they both showed three points of bitter smile and seven points of self-deprecation.
"I thought that Liu Feng must also be afraid of Cao Gong's strength, and when Cao Gong went south, he would also take advantage of the situation. Unexpectedly, he defeated Cao Ren in Liucheng and formed a hatred with Cao Gong. An unruly look. Kuai Yue said, a little self-deprecation flashed on his face, and said: "You and I conspired to give Changsha to him, dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Period, and wanted him to resist Sun Quan." But it turned out that he lifted the stone and hit his own foot. ”
"Hey."
Cai Mao's face became more sad when he heard this, and he smiled bitterly and raised his fist at Kuai Yue and said, "It's okay to be different, but I still have a daughter." ”
Cai Mao added another sentence in her heart, there is also a younger sister.
The two glanced at each other again, and sighed in unison.
sigh Liu Feng is uncontrollable, sigh Liu Feng is too unruly. sighed that he was too stupid to try to control Liu Feng's development.
Liu Feng's defeat of Cao Ren has already begun to have a subtle impact in the game of princes in the world. Moreover, it has also subtly affected people's hearts.
Of course, Liu Feng didn't know about these things.
He was still in Wancheng, busy transporting 200,000 people.
Wancheng at this moment is completely different from the Wancheng that Liu Feng just occupied. The city is still there, but it's long gone.
The handsome flag with the character "Liu" hanging on the city has already been taken.
Outside the east gate of the city, Liu Feng sat on the dark cloud horse, glanced back at Wancheng, and a little reminiscence flashed in his eyes.
It has been two months since the capture of Wancheng, and in these two months, Gan Ning led his troops to attack more than ten cities in Nanyang County with Wancheng as the center, and they will inevitably be burned everywhere they go.
Even the villages are not spared.
I was a wicked person, but what I got was incomparably huge. A full population of 200,000 gathered in Wancheng.
Under the operation of the Jiangxia civil official system led by Jiang Wan, who arrived later, all kinds of materials, cattle, sheep, tents, etc., were disposed of in an orderly manner.
It is imperative that the casualties of the people are kept to a minimum during the transportation process.
At this moment, it was already late autumn, and Liu Feng personally led the army to harvest all the grain that could be harvested in Nanyang County, and obtained 1.5 million stone of grain.
These grains were cultivated by 200,000 people in Nanyang County. For winter, with the following year's consumption.
Of course, Liu Feng will not transport it into the granary, and when the people are settled, he will return the grain to the people.
It took more than two months, and this was the last group of people.
Liu Feng took his gaze back from Wancheng and threw himself ahead.
What greeted Liu Feng was more than 10,000 people, and they were also the last group of people in the entire Nanyang County. These people, men and women in the prime of life, had to walk, and the old and young would deliver oxen and horse carts.
Under the escort of the army, he walked nearly 1,000 miles and took refuge in Jiangxia. Become a common man under Jiangxia.
It is a sin to forcibly take people away from their homes. But Liu Feng can't control so much, Wancheng can't hold it, even if it does, it's a fool.
He could only transport the people. Do everything possible to suppress Cao Ying's forces.
"Burn the city." After looking at it for a while, Liu Feng ordered.
Suddenly, countless soldiers lit torches and rushed into Wancheng.
About half an hour later, the entire city burst into flames and thick smoke.
The fate of Wancheng is the fate of the entire Nanyang County. Liu blocked it, and the entire Nanyang County was uninhabited. I don't know how much notoriety has fallen.
But at this moment, Liu Feng's mood is very good, Cao Ren has done it, and the 200,000 population of Nanyang County has also been won. All you get is a burst of strength.
"Let's go." Glancing back at Wancheng again, Liu Feng let out a loud sigh and ordered.
With Liu Feng's order, thousands of soldiers escorted more than 10,000 people and slowly moved south.
After traveling thirty miles, they crossed the river by boat, and then passed through Anle until they went south. Along the way, Liu Feng saw wilderness everywhere. A silent and uninhabited village, or an entire empty city.
As soon as Cao Ren was defeated, not only the 23,000 army was defeated, but also the unknown number of thousands of people who should have been under the protection of Cao Ren's defense.
Liu Feng's army was like locusts, and he didn't know how many people and how much grain he plundered.
Because of dragging the people and the speed was extremely slow, Liu Feng and others said that they only traveled thirty miles, and they walked for a month before returning to Liucheng, Jiangbei. In front of Liu Feng were countless tents and countless people.
There are also countless countless grains, baggage.
"My lord." Outside Liucheng, Jiang Wan, who entered Liucheng one step ahead of Liu Feng, and Pang Tong, Deng Ai and others who stayed in Liucheng, led the crowd out to greet Liu Feng.
"I want to meet Cao Ren." Eyes flashed from everyone's faces one by one, and Liu Feng smiled slightly.
After this war, the gains are so huge. After entering the city, it should be liquidated. Good planning how to dispose of it.
But what Liu Feng wants to see most is Cao Ren.
This is a big, extra-large fish.
