Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"Zirou has already gotten that sharp weapon from this Lu Bu's hands?!" Liu Biao seemed a little incredulous, so simple? Originally, Liu Biao just planned to spend some money to exchange Huang Jie back, appease and appease his veteran Huang Zu's heart, and then spend some money to ask Lu Bujun not to sell that sharp weapon to Sun Ce'er, but he didn't expect to buy the crossbow in his hands so simply!
Happiness came so suddenly! Liu Biao has been pressed and beaten by Sun Ce for many years, and even Gan Ning, the Jiangxia rebel general, can lead the old, weak, sick and disabled to send 30,000 Jiangdong into the Yangtze River (Liu Biao has always refused to recognize Gan Ning's talent, because that doesn't it seem that he Liu Biao has no eyes!). He has tens of thousands of elite soldiers under his command, and there are many veterans! I don't believe that I can't send Zhou Yu, who occupies Jiangdong, home! It is rare that Liu Biao has spirit!
"Yes, my lord, Zirou has already obtained the bed crossbow, and he is already on the way to Jingzhou at the moment!" Kuai Yue is also very happy, and when he gets this weapon, he Jingzhou no longer needs to be afraid of Jiangdong. The younger brother has made this credit, and Kuai Yue, who is the elder brother, is also very happy!
"Haha, you and Zirou are really the left arm and right arm of the table! Waiting for Zirou to come back, I will definitely be rewarded! "This Kuai family brother is the two most important strategists under Liu Biao, the younger brother Kuai Liang has the ability of Yongji, and the elder brother Kuai Yue has set a lot of strategies for Jingzhou, Liu Biao can pacify Jingzhou is the credit of the two of them, when Jingzhou Liu Biao entered, it was a single horse!
Don't underestimate Liu Biao, although the current Liu Biao is a sick cat and a dog, but the previous Liu Biao is one of the eight horses! During his stay in Jingzhou, Liu Biao was enwei. Tricky and seductive. Thousands of miles clear. The crowd is pleased. He also opened a school, loved the people and raised scholars, and calmly protected himself. Yuan Shao was far away, thousands of miles away from Zhang Xiu's base, with more than 100,000 armor, called the Jingjiang River, first killed Sun Jian, and then often resisted Cao Cao.
These are all done by Liu Biao himself. It's just that when Liu Biao got old, he naturally didn't care about these things about fighting for hegemony! If this year passes, Liu Biao will be fifty and eight, this age, in ancient times, he was already a real old man when he was generally thirty years old! Ten years younger than Tao Qian! Thirteen years older than Cao Cao, 33 years older than Sun Ce, a whole generation, when Liu Biao was vertical, Sun Ce was still in his mother's womb!
It can only be said that Liu Biao was born at the wrong time, but when he was strong, the world was not very chaotic, and he waited until his twilight years. But it can only be stable and good!
"Lord! This Lu Bu Lu Fengxian is not just sold to us in Jingzhou! Cai Mao said on the side. He looked unhappy, this Kuai family and their Cai family are the same Jingzhou scholars, and even these two families can represent the entire Jingzhou Shi family, and there are also in-laws between them, but Cai Mao is not used to Liu Biao's praise for the Kuai family brothers, more sparse than relatives, he Cai Mao is Liu Biao's brother-in-law, in terms of strength, their Cai family is not weaker than the Kuai family, but Liu Biao has always treated the Kuai family more favorably than the Cai family!
Cai Mao also knows that this is Liu Biao's way of balancing, this is Liu Biao's guarantee that his Liu family can be maintained steadily in this Jingzhou, Liu Biao and Cai Mao's sister Cai have a son for Liu Cong, this son is also very happy with Liu Biao, maybe Liu Biao will leave Jingzhou to Liu Cong after a hundred years, it is precisely because of this that Liu Biao will give more than preferential treatment to the Kuai family, in order to be a hundred years later, this Cai Mao Cai family will not rob their Liu family of the country, and the Kuai family is used by Liu Biao to balance the Cai family!
"This Lu Bu also sold the drawings of the bed crossbow to Jiangdong Sun Ce!" Cai Mao's intelligence system is not weak, so he can also get this information, "You must know that Zirou went before Jiangdong Zhang Zhao, but she only got the bed crossbow in the end!" Cai Mao said and looked at Kuai Yue, the meaning of his words was that this Kuai Zirou should have stopped Lu Bu from giving the Jiangdong Navy blueprints, but in the end, not only did he fail to stop it, but he was also preemptively obtained!
"General Cai Mao, if you say this, why didn't you volunteer to go before!" Kuai Yue was also a little annoyed, he snorted coldly, before Liu Biao asked who could go to Lujiang to negotiate peace with Lu Bu, no one was willing to stand up, because Lu Bu's reputation was not good, and there were more than one or two messengers who died in his hands, the nearest was Sun Cejun's Chen Rui, and they were not sure that they could really convince Lu Bujun, rather than being favored in the past, it was better not to say a word, only his younger brother Kuai Liang stood up and volunteered to go, at that time Kuai Yue was still blaming his younger brother, but now he didn't expect Kuai Liang to succeed, This has to be said to be an unexpected joy, but Cai Mao stood up and said cool words, this Kuai Yue can not be angry!
"Why should Xenomorph be like this, I, Cai Mao, am just one thing and one thing! I, Cai Mao, am good at training the commander of the water army, but I am really not suitable for peace talks, so Zirou is the real suitable person! Cai Mao replied to Kuai Yue.
Kuai Yue also smiled coldly, you Cai Mao is not suitable for playing tricks? You Cai Mao speaks better than anyone else, when the lord distributes things, gives military power, and gives privileges, why don't you Cai Mao not be good at words!
"Okay, stop arguing!" Liu Biao stood up, his heart was very happy, what he wanted was discord between the Kuai family and the Cai family, if the two families were very harmonious and retreated together, he Liu Biao would really be frightened. Thinking so in his heart, but Liu Biao wanted to show a heartache on the surface, who can be a prince, who is not capable! I said before that crying is a kind of knowledge, and this acting is also a kind of knowledge.
"Xenodu, Deju, both of you are my Jingzhou talents, and you can only be stable in Jingzhou with you, what do you look like now!" As he spoke, Liu Biao coughed, as if he was angry with the quarrel between the two.
"The more the lord knows his mistakes!" Kuai Yue was the first to speak and admit his mistake: "I shouldn't be sarcastic about General Cai Mao!" β
"The lord Cai Mao knows his mistake!" Cai Mao also reacted: "It's me who is not good, I shouldn't question Mr. Zirou!" Cai Mao also bowed her head and admitted her mistake.
"Is that right? You two should go hand in hand! Liu Biao nodded, "Okay,!" Now that our army has the bed crossbow in hand, it is suitable for Sun Ce to pay off his debts! "Although Lu Bujun gave Jiangdong blueprints, he gave Liu Biao the entire twenty-three ships full of bed crossbows! An extra day now could be a turning point.
"Pass on my military order, it's time for Wenpin Huang Zu to start subduing Jiangxia! Remember! I want the head of Mishuro Koto! Liu Biao's eyes suddenly flashed with a fighting spirit, which made Kuai Yue and Cai Mao below stunned. This is still the twilight of life. The old and dying Liu Biao Liu Jingsheng!
When Liu Xian entered Jingzhou alone, Kuai Yue still remembers it. At that time, Kuai Yue was still a hairy boy, but he was deeply impressed by Liu Biao's appearance, at that time he thought that Liu Biao was the master of his Kuai Yue, that is, the Ming Lord who could dominate the world again, and Liu Biao did not disappoint him, and swept away the entire Jingzhou Dynasty Wang Rui for Jingzhou Thorn History, supplemented by the Kuai brothers, Cai Mao and others.
Sitting on Jingzhou, Jiangdong should be ignored and Yizhou should be occupied. If Liu Biao really moved at that time, then now most of the Han Dynasty is in Liu Biao's hands, but Liu Biao gave up, and gave up when Kuai Yue was about to show his ability! This abandonment has been going on for so many years, and Kuai Yue has also changed from a childish child to a middle-aged man who is now more than calm.
And now Kuai Yue actually saw the kind of light back then from Liu Biao's eyes, Kuai Yidu rubbed his eyes and didn't seem to believe his eyes!
"Go ahead, I'll leave this to you, I'm tired and go to sleep first!" Liu Biao sat down after finishing the order.
"Hey!" Kuai Yue sighed in his heart, the lord is really old! If you were ten years younger, Jingzhou would be like this now! Kuai Yue is a little sad! Liu Biao, you say he's strong. I have always been bullied and attacked. Never took the initiative! You say he's weak! He was able to kill the Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian, a figure who even Dong Zhuo was restless, and he was able to occupy Jingzhou for decades! 100,000 men with armor!
"Dejue" "Farewell to Xenodu!" The two looked at each other and left the chamber with their fists clenched.
Out of the chamber. The two of them, who should have been incompatible, suddenly chuckled lightly, "Congratulations to Xeno, Brother Zirou has made a new contribution!" β
"Where, where is it, De Jue has won the award, Zirou still needs to learn a lot, and she still needs a lot of help from your brother!" The conversation between the two is very friendly, and the tone of their speech is a kind of sincerity without a trace of perfunctory politeness! These two are true friends!
That's true, Kuai Yue and Cai Mao have known each other since childhood, and the two families are still connected to relatives, how can a family talk to two families! Where did the two of them express the discord in Liu Biao, it was just a discord for Liu Biao! Liu Biao can act, they can too, don't you Liu Biao want a balance! That's a balance for you! In front of Liu Surface, the two were enemies, and they demolished each other on the basis of their opinions, but the real two of them are real allies, Jingzhou can change the history of the state pastor for two terms, but there is only one family in the Kuai family and the Cai family!
"What do you think of the lord's thoughts this time!" Kuai Yue still wanted to ask Cai Mao if he had seen that long-lost feeling.
"See!" Cai Mao also nodded, he also saw it, he thought he was wrong at the same moment as Kuai Yue, but it was not, that feeling was Liu Biao's kind of strength and courage to calm Jingzhou, "But what can it be like this!" The lord is already old, old! Cai Mao shook his head, Liu Biao also seemed to know that his time was running out, so Liu Biao was unwilling to take risks, he was only willing to guard his Jingzhou until the end!
"Hey!" Kuai Yue sighed, "What about now!" The Lord's order! Although Liu Biao ordered to go down, it still depends on Cai Mao whether it is carried out or not.
"Of course I went!" Cai Mao nodded heavily: "Don't you think this Jiangdong Sun Ce is too much!" "In the past, although the Jiangdong Navy invaded Jingzhou, it was only outside Jiangxia, and the two sides won and lost each other, which is also a strategy of Cai Mao and Kuai Yue, only by exaggerating the threat of Jiangdong can Liu Biao invest most of the taxes in the navy, which is why Jingzhou Liu Biao has hundreds of thousands of sailors in his hands, but the 6th Army has only less than 10,000 or 20,000 reasons, and now Sun Ce has taken half of Jiangxia, which has already touched their interests!
And what Sun Ce wants to do when he gets the bed crossbow, this idea is clear at a glance, not for Liu Biao, but also for their Cai family, he Cai Mao also wants to fight this battle well! Now it's even more in hand, the building ship that has been loaded with bed crossbows, and the thousands of Jiangxia sailors on it! If you don't hurt Jiangdong at this time, when will it be!
"So Yue is waiting here for De Jue to get the head of Koto Mizhouro!" Kuai Yue also nodded, the interests of their Kuai family are with the Cai family! That's why Cai Mao's actions also have the idea of Kuai Yue.
"Don't worry!" The two separated, and Cai Mao went to the naval camp. And Kuai Yue went back to his mansion. Conquering Jiangxia still has to fight. Kuai Yue needs to raise grain and grass. Prepare military supplies, and there is a replica bed crossbow! ββ
"Wancheng is over!" Cao Cao has a case in his hand, he is now in Guandu, and he has been confronting Yuan Shaojun for a while! On this Yellow River, it can be said that he is across the river, and both sides are mobilizing their armies, waiting for the final decisive battle!
Cao Cao, who had been watching the excitement all along, suddenly got the information that the war in Anhui City was over! It shouldn't be! Sun Ce went with an army of 100,000. And Lu Bu's army is only 50,000 people, and Cao Cao, the Anhui city of Lujiang, has not seen it. Where is the city wall surrounded by a tall moat, it is really an important town! The two sides will definitely form a meat grinder on this Anhui City, 6 Kang has defended Sun Ce, just above Anhui City, that is a whole two years, let alone two years, even if it is only half a year, Cao Cao will be happy, what can be more refreshing than seeing his two enemies pinch each other! But how long has it been? One month? A month and a half? The battle of Anhui City was over. Sun Ce's 100,000-strong army fled back, and the rest of the 5,000 troops were annihilated!
"Lu Bu has become stronger again!" Cao Cao pinched the information and said in a low voice, not afraid of people laughing when he said it. Just like Dong Zhuo was afraid of Sun Jian back then! Cao Cao is really afraid of Lu Bu, otherwise he would not have thought about making peace with Lu Bu after besieging Xiapi, he thought that he would be like a lost dog if he drove Lu Bu out of Xuzhou, who knew that Lu Bu occupied a Lujiang River so soon, and now he has defeated Sun Ce's 100,000 army, even if Sun Ce's army is not as good as himself in 6 battles, but Lu Bu was also disabled by himself! Public station! Is it because of you again? Now Cao Cao is wondering if it is Chen Gong's strategy to destroy Sun Ce's army, you must know that sometimes the strategy of the strategists can really make an army die without a place to be buried, such as Zhao Kuo in history, the reason why he was able to master the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Zhao army is because Fan Ju used the strategy to make Zhao temporarily change the commander, so that the king of Zhao thought that Zhao Kuo was a talent, and only he could make the Qin army retreat, who knew that the final result was the Battle of Changping, and 200,000 Zhao soldiers were killed!
Later, Xu You sold Yuan Shao, if it weren't for Xu You, Yuan Shao wouldn't have been defeated so badly, and even consumed like this, Cao Cao was the first to be unable to hold on, and Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu's burning of Chibi was also a ploy, directly leaving Cao Cao's 800,000 army in the Yangtze River!
That's the terrible thing about these counselors! A sentence can determine the life and death of an army, and a sentence can bring down a country!
"Lord!" Just as Cao Cao was thinking, the big tent was opened, and a thin scribe walked in, although this person was weak, but a pair of eyes were extremely bright, and the other scribes generally carried books or feather fans in their hands, but this scribe was holding a wine gourd in his hand! This person is the prodigal son Guo Jia!
"What's the matter, is Fengxiao not drinking enough, and you want to ask me for it!" The more Guo Jia is profligate, the more relieved and appreciative Cao Cao is, because talented people are very arrogant, Guo Jia is crazy that he has capital, but his waves make Cao Cao very relieved, as mentioned earlier, the strategist is a high IQ, he can unknowingly kill you, if such a person can't control it, even if he has great talent, he will be killed by the person in power!
For example, Jia Xu, he is a poisoner, and he has always focused on himself, and all his strategies are based on the word poison! As soon as his plan comes out, tens of thousands of people will not give up, for example, Li Dao and Guo Yan almost killed Lu Bu with Jia Xu's strategy!
Such a person who joined Cao Cao's camp should have shined and had more scheming. But Jia Xu knew that Cao Cao was suspicious, and the more Jia Xu used more tricks, then Jia Xu would not be far from death, because Jia Xu's schemes were all desperate schemes, and Jia Xu couldn't be as profligate as Guo Jia! Lao Cao is really afraid that Jia Xu will be able to give himself a desperate plan after his death, so the better Jia Xu is, the more likely it is that Lao Cao will take him with him after his death!
So Jia Xu, who joined Cao Cao's army, didn't say much.
There is still a great talent in history that makes Cao Cao jealous of Zhou Budo. This man is too smart. Cheng DΓΉ, who was so smart that Cao Cao was afraid. If Cao Chong is still alive, he can still suppress him, but Cao Chong is dead, there are really few people in this world who can subdue him! So Cao Cao did not hesitate to kill such a prodigy directly in infancy.
There is also a person who is Sima Yi! This person has the color of a wolf, he is the only character who can make Zhuge Liang feel sorry for himself, Cao Cao has already seen it, so he also wants to kill this person, but Sima Yi learned from the old fox Jia Xu and began to hide his edge. Slowly let Cao Cao relax his vigilance, so he survived, and in the end, the Sima family seized the Cao family's country.
And Guo Jia made Cao Cao very relieved, this prodigal son was a prodigal wreck, but many people were not allowed in this era, those scholars respected Guo Jia very much on the surface, but in fact they didn't put Guo Jia in their eyes at all, because the first Guo Jia was a prodigal son who couldn't go to the hall in their eyes, and the second most important thing was that Guo Jia was a cold man, he was not a scholar. Even if he has a wolf heart, it is difficult to succeed! It is impossible for those scholars to support a child of the Han clan, so Cao Cao has a real concern for Guo Jiana for his friends! The two of them have no scruples when they joke! Guo Jia once laughed at Cao Cao for being afraid of his wife! You must know that Guo Jia is just a courtier. A courtier talks about the lord like this, if he really cares, then he will be killed! But Cao Cao didn't care, but instead told Guo Jia's wife about Guo Jia going to drink flower wine and go to the Qinglou, and of course Guo Jia was unlucky in the end!
Guo Jia is not happy without alcohol, but drinking in the army is taboo, only Cao Cao can have wine, every time Guo Jia finishes drinking, he naturally comes to Cao Cao to ask for it, these days and Yuan Shao have been confronting, there is no substantial progress, and now Guo Jia is here, Cao Cao thinks he is here to ask for wine again.
"And half a pot!" Guo Jia shook his head, shook the gourd in his hand and said.
"Then what are you doing here, you erector! If you don't go to rest in the middle of the night, do you want to go back to Xudu again! Cao Cao joked with a smile.
"How dare I!" Guo Jia shook his head with a wry smile, although he was made a military advisor by Cao Cao and had a salary of 1,000 stones, but all this money was in his wife's! Since Cao Cao's complaint last time, Guo Jia hasn't touched money for many days!
"Haha!" Cao Cao laughed, and the high tension of the confrontation with Yuan Shaojun in the past few days was swept away. "Okay, let's get down to business!" Cao Cao also sternly stood up and said, he knew that Guo Jia must have something important to discuss when he came so late.
"Yes!" Guo Jia also sternly said, "I don't know if the lord has gotten that information!" β
"The information of the Battle of Wancheng!" Cao Cao raised the case in his hand and said, "I'm watching!" This Jiangdong little overlord can be beaten by that Bingzhou tiger! "Sun Ce may have really met his nemesis, the little tiger was originally very fierce, but when he met an adult tiger, it was really bitter, and he was not an opponent compared to claws and teeth!
"So my lord, have you seen that part of the water army!" Guo Jia asked, this information is partly in the hands of Guo Jia, and partly in Cao Cao's hands.
"Water Army?!" Cao Cao frowned, and read down on the case: "Outside the Dazhai of the Wancheng Water Army, 30,000 Jiangdong troops were lured out of Dazhai by 7,000 Lu Bu Water Army, and they were all annihilated!" β
Annihilation?! Cao Cao's eyes widened, 30,000 were lured out by 7,000, and all of them were annihilated, what is this situation, is it that he took the wrong case, or this information is fake, or he is dazzled, Cao Cao rubbed his eyes vigorously, and it was clearly written that 30,000 troops were all annihilated!
"Don't be confused, the 30,000 Jiangdong Navy has indeed been wiped out!" Guo Jia let Cao Cao determine the answer! Guo Jia's intelligence is not more than Cao Cao's, but Guo Jia will have an extra mind, and some of the information he wants will naturally make people focus on detection!
"It's all gone!" Cao Cao continued to look over, and it was written that the 7,000 naval army was led by a general named Gan Ning in the Lu Bu army, "Gan Ning? So strong?! Cao Cao was a little puzzled, what kind of character is this Gan Ning, who can defeat 30,000 with 7,000 sailors and annihilate them all! That's nearly five times as many enemies! Even if the cavalry meets the foot soldiers, it will be nothing more than that! And Cao Cao remembered that Lu Bujun didn't have any water army at all! Even when Lu Bu was in Xuzhou, he didn't care about the navy, and those Xuzhou navy were cheaper than Cao Cao in the end!
"Gan Ning, Gan Xingba, a good ranger when he was a teenager, gathered men and horses, held bows and crossbows, did evil in the locality, formed a canal division to rob the property of the ship, wore bells, dressed gorgeously, and was known as the Jinfan thief. When the local people heard the bell ring, they knew that it was Gan Ning who appeared. After seizing the cargo for more than 20 years, he stopped robbing and became familiar with the princes. At the age of 18, he served as Shu Juncheng, and later served as a prince under Liu Biao and Huang Zu and was not reused, during which he shot Ling Cao, the father of Ling Tong, so he had a grudge against Ling Tong for killing his father. When Lu Bu's army attacked Xuzhou, he surrendered Lu Bu with Su Fei and Huang Zhong! Guo Jia has detailed information about Gan Ning in his hand.
"This Gan Ning is a great talent, a great talent!" Cao Cao now really thinks that this person is a great talent in the navy, and if he can fight such a battle, he is definitely a person who is good at commanding troops, Cao Cao is a little envious of Lu Bu who has such a talent, if he is in Cao Cao's hands, he can directly teach all the 50,000 sailors under his command to this Gan Ning.
"This Gan Ning is indeed a character, but the lord, commanding the 30,000 Jiangdong naval army is not a waste, but Jiang Qin, but these 30,000 troops are all wiped out, and the 7,000 men and horses of Gan Ning are unparalleled at all" Guo Jia forgot about Lu Su, not that Guo Jia's intelligence was not in place, but that Lu Su just appeared on the stage of this troubled world!
"Jiang Qin?!" Cao Cao has Jiang Qin's information in his hands, this person is a general under Sun Ce, he is extremely good at the water army, and his brother Zhou Tai is a tyrant on the Yangtze River, Jiang Qin and his good at water warfare can't lose so badly even if he is not the opponent of this Gan Ning, and he was killed in the end! No matter how strong Gan Ning is, he can't be so strong as that!
"Bonghyo, did you get any information!" Cao Cao didn't want to speculate anymore because he felt a sense of crisis!
"Yes!" Guo Jia didn't sell Guan Zi either, and said directly: "This is because Lu Bujun has a sharp weapon in his hand, which can shoot huge arrows hundreds of steps away!" Able to penetrate the ship! β
"Sharp weapons? Can you shoot a giant arrow from a hundred paces away? Can you penetrate the naval ship?! Cao Cao thought of such a thing in his mind: "Fengxiao, you are talking about a giant crossbow!" "Cao Cao is not an uninformed person, he has seen the bed crossbow on those border cities, this thing can indeed shoot hundreds of steps, and his penetrating power is extremely powerful!
"Giant crossbow!" Guo Jia chewed on this information: "It shouldn't be!" This weapon can shoot continuously! This is the reason for the destruction of the 30,000 naval army! β
"Burst shot?!" Cao Cao was stunned, he hadn't seen a giant crossbow before, it took more than a dozen or twenty people to pull the bowstring together, and it took a long time to shoot once, and it was extremely laborious, but now Guo Jia told him that this thing can shoot continuously, isn't this a joke! "Impossible, impossible! Bong Hyo! I've seen this giant crossbow before, and it's absolutely impossible to shoot it in bursts! "Sometimes the information is not always correct, and you need to discern it yourself.
"Yes!" Guo Jia is also a little unsure, this kind of thing can shoot through the building boat in a row, if Lu Bujun had this thing a long time ago, how could Xuzhou lose it so easily! Put a dozen or twenty on the city wall, and Cao Cao's army will have to pay a huge price, is it really the wrong intelligence!
While the two were pondering, a guard rushed in from outside.
"Didn't I say no one should disturb you!" Cao Cao was a little annoyed, he hated people to disturb him the most when he was discussing with Guo Jia, and he was about to kill when the red light flashed in his eyes.
"Lord, eight hundred miles urgently, urgently!" The guard was a little panicked, Lao Cao was so murderous in his dream, there was once a brother who saw Lao Cao sleep and kicked the quilt off, and wanted to cover the quilt for him but was killed by Lao Cao with a sword, he was so murderous in his dream, and when he woke up, he was a killing god! The guard didn't want to die just like that, so he hurriedly knelt on the ground and handed over the case in his hand.
"Eight hundred miles expedited!" Cao Cao couldn't care about this guard anymore, so he directly picked up the case and read it, and after reading it, his face was cloudy! (To be continued......)
