969 Wants to move the imperial capital
It doesn't matter if he is pure or pure, Wang Baoyu is not familiar with it, isn't it just a law name!
Wang Baoyu didn't think much about it, and then arranged to build a temple for Master Hongjing, this old monk was very individual, did not agree to build a Buddhist hall, only let the construction of three huts, as his place of cultivation, the servants did not want anything, casually recruited a little monk, take care of his daily life. As for the diet, it is extremely light, there is no oil flower, two meals a day, and no food after lunch.
The old monk is strict with self-discipline, from this point of view, everyone's doubts have also faded a lot, but they still can't guess why they want to build a pagoda in Yiling.
Guan Yu flooded the Seventh Army, surrendered to the ban, beheaded Pang De, and shocked China. As soon as the news came out, everyone was shocked, Liu Bei stroked his palms and said quickly, tears of excitement splashed, Guan Yu is really a good brother who is closer than his own brothers!
After Cao Cao heard the news, he fell seriously ill, did not eat rice for three days and three nights, woke up and fell asleep in a groggy state, slept and woke up, and everyone was in a hurry. When he woke up, he found that his hair was all white, he had lost a lot of weight, and his belly had become smaller several times.
"Is it lonely in this mirror?" Cao Cao casually asked the maid next to him, and the maid was so frightened that she knelt on the ground, her body was like chaff, and she didn't know how to deal with it.
"Why don't you answer what I asked?" Cao Cao's face was displeased, and the maid was even more frightened, just kowtowing desperately, "The slave should die, the slave should die!" ”
"Why are you afraid of being lonely? Lonely is not like before, I can't hear the dead the most, I don't kill you, go out. Cao Cao said quietly, and the maid kowtowed to thank her, and hurriedly retreated half-kneeling.
When the military generals of Wenchen arrived, Cao Cao barely cheered up and sighed: "The general Pang De can still sacrifice his life for righteousness, but he is not guaranteed in the ban on the evening festival, and he surrenders lightly, which is really unexpected." ”
"Can you put your family members in custody and behead them?" Dali Zhong Xuan asked.
"Alas, I read that he has been fighting with me for many years, and he has worked hard, so forget it! Reward their families and let them live in peace. Cao Cao waved his hand and said, this sound very humane, and everyone was very moved.
"Xiangyang and Fancheng are in danger, please send a large army to support them as soon as possible." Jia Xu said.
Cao Cao nodded and ordered: "Order Xu Chu and Xu Huang to lead an army of 100,000 and quickly reinforce Fancheng." ”
After arranging a qiē, Cao Cao was silent for a long time, as if he had something to say, Jia Xu asked, "What does the King of Wei command?" ”
"Unexpectedly, Guan Yu is so brave, and Lone is thinking about it, so he can move the imperial city from Xudu to Yecheng in the north to avoid its edge." Cao Cao said.
Everyone didn't speak, and to this day, they can't figure out Cao Cao's thoughts, there is a Wei palace in Yecheng, if the emperor moves over, where will he live? Moreover, Cao Cao recruited talents by his side, supported his troops and respected himself, and on the other hand, he seemed to be thinking about the emperor at all times, and it was difficult for the world to distinguish whether he was a traitor or a loyal.
Sima Yi hesitated for a moment, but still had the courage to come out and say, "King Wei, the minister thinks this is not possible." ”
"Why not?"
"The flooding of the Seventh Army is not because of the battle, but because Guan Yu won by skill, and it did not damage the country's plan. Guan Yu has the will, Sun Quan will not like it, Keri will definitely send troops to attack his rear, and we will wait and see what happens, and there will be a good opportunity. Sima Yi said.
"Zhongda's words are very good, and moving the capital to work and mobilize the people is not good for the country and the people." Jia Xu saw that Sima Yi had come forward, and he also agreed.
"That's it, let's wait and see." Cao Cao felt that the two of them were right, and temporarily gave up the idea of moving the capital.
Turning back to Guan Yu, after saying goodbye to Mo Qianxun, the army took a boat down the river and went straight to Fancheng. At this time, outside the city of Fancheng, the white waves were monstrous, mixed with dead animals and weeds floating everywhere, the city wall was about to fall, and the city was also knee-high in water, and the soldiers and people were wading through the water, a scene of hardship and desolation.
Hearing that Guan Yu drowned all the troops of Ban and Pang De, the soldiers in the city were all frightened, and the army was panicked. A lieutenant general learned that Guan Yu's drive was coming, and hurriedly found Cao Ren and said: "General, today's danger can not be solved by manpower, you can take advantage of the future of the enemy army and take a boat away, thinking that it is a preservation strategy." ”
Cao Ren had already moved this thought, and was about to agree, but the strategist who was sick by the heavy rain was full of favor, and he was still working sick with a strip of cloth wrapped around his head, and he happened to walk in staggering in with a cane at this time, and when he heard the words of the adjutant general, he hurriedly said: "General, don't withdraw the army!" ”
"The enemy army is so strong that the city wall is about to topple, so what can I do? Is it possible that tens of thousands of my soldiers will die? Cao Ren said with a bitter face.
"If the color is getting sunny today, the mountains and rivers will come suddenly, and they will retreat soon. If the general abandons the city today, Guan Yu occupies Xiangfan, and he will move his army north, and the south of the river will not be guaranteed! This is a national plan, and the general is also requested to put the overall situation first, stick to the city, and protect the north. If Xiangyang is not guaranteed, the full pet will not be reluctant to steal his life, and he will be martyred! With tears in his eyes, he knelt down and spoke, and his attitude was very sincere.
Cao Ren was silent for a moment, bowed down and helped Man Zhong up, and sighed faintly: "If it is not for the public words, a few mistakes in major events, for the generals to be loyal to the country, what is the fear of life and death!" ”
"The general will live forever!" Full of tears, deep surrender.
Cao Ren then gathered his soldiers and horses, raised his broadsword, and swore to the heavens: "Since we have been ordered by the king to hold on to this city, we should live and die with the city to become loyal and righteous." If there is anyone who abandons the city, he will be beheaded immediately! ”
After speaking, Cao Ren cut his arm and dripped blood to make his ambition, and all the soldiers were so determined that Cao Ren's spirit also rose, and he immediately shouted in unison: "Swear to defend the city, the city is in the people, and the city is dead!" ”
Cao Ren instructed the officers and soldiers to work with the people to carry earth and stones to strengthen the city wall, and he himself came to the city wall, righteous and awe-inspiring, and led the soldiers to defend the city.
Guan Yu's army, on a bamboo raft, soon came to the front, mighty, unable to see the edge at a glance, and the momentum was amazing.
"Wait for the rats, don't come down early, but when?" Guan Yu pointed obliquely at the big knife and shouted loudly.
"Swear to live and die with the city! Swear to live and die with the city! The soldiers on the city wall shouted in unison, which shocked Guan Yu's heart.
Then, the arrows rained down, and Guan Yu's army stood on the bamboo raft, and it was very difficult to dodge. So they all retreated, and in the panic, they collided with each other, and many of them fell into the water, which was very wolf.
At this point, Guan Yu's army not only could not advance an inch, but was very badly damaged.
Seeing that he couldn't capture the city for a while, there was no advantage in the water battle, so Guan Yu could only lead his troops to retreat, just waiting for the water to subside, and then come to seize Fancheng.
If Mo Qianxun was here, he would definitely not advocate Guan Yu to do this, at this time, he would desperately attack the city, but he would win, and if he hesitated a little, he gave the other party a chance to breathe.
To the great relief of both sides, the water level was falling at a visible rate every day, and after a week, the flood waters receded.
However, when Guan Yu's troops came again, they found that the walls of Fancheng had not collapsed, but had become stronger, and seemed to be a lot taller.
