Jingzhou, a mountainous area near Xiangyang, the secret camp of the Heavenly Kingdom.

The secret base of the Heavenly Kingdom is usually built in the mountains and forests near the main transportation routes, so that it can not only facilitate transportation, but also hide and hide.

The scale of the secret base is not large, only 100 people can be stationed, but fences, deer bars, trenches and other defensive facilities are readily available, and the camp is also surrounded by secret sentry posts, equipped with strong bows and crossbows, no matter any outsiders approach, they will be shot directly to ensure the safety of the camp.

At this time, a group of female generals of the Heavenly Kingdom were holding a secret military meeting in the big tent in the middle of the camp.

Sitting in the center of the first seat is a tall and graceful woman wearing an iron mask and a dark gray uniform, this person is the military god general Lin Shuangyue.

Frost Moon cleared her throat and asked a female general sitting on the top of the right:

"Qingyan, what is the current movement on Cao Cao's side?"

The person summoned by Frost Moon, whose full name was Gu Qingyan, was the chief of intelligence at the time, responsible for intelligence collection and transmission.

Qingyan was dressed in a dark gray uniform, holding a bun, wearing a small crown, her eyes were sharp, and her appearance was dignified. She heard Frost Moon asking, so she replied respectfully:

"According to the tip, Cao Cao has sent troops from Yecheng to the east to conquer the pirates and consolidate his rule in the north."

"Are the pirates in charge? Vulnerable. Cao Cao will win this battle. Frost Moon replied without thinking.

At this time, a female general sitting on the top left rubbed her chin and took the initiative to remind:

"If Cao Cao stabilizes the situation in the north, it will be very unfavorable to our side!"

The person who spoke was shoulder-length silver-haired, dressed in a dark riding suit, with a high nose and a cherry mouth, but his eyes were wrapped in a thick black cloth.

This person is none other than the most famous think tank of the Heavenly Kingdom, the military division general Liu Ruyan. In a battle eleven years ago, she was blinded by a head wound to cover her subordinates' breakthrough, but this did not affect her wisdom and determination. The military god general Lin Shuangyue is fighting outside, and the military division general Liu Ruyan is the mastermind inside, the two are each other's inside and outside, and they cooperate tacitly, and they are the mainstay of the military circle of the Yunxiao Heavenly Kingdom.

Frost Moon has always had great respect for Ruyan, and when she heard Ruyan speak, she turned sideways and asked her:

"As Yan says, it is very true. But who else can we rely on to disrupt the political situation in the north? ”

Ruyan thought for a moment and replied:

"The strong people who seized the south included Liu Biao, Sun Quan, and Liu Zhang, and the strong people who seized the north included Ma Teng, Han Sui, and the two Yuan who united with Wuhuan, and others such as Zhang Lu, Shi Xie, and Gongsun Kang were too small to be reasonable. However, Liu Biao of Jingzhou only thought about defending the land and did not want to forge ahead, and he was also afraid of Liu Bei internally, so he would not send troops to compete with Cao Cao. Since Sun Quan of Yangzhou succeeded his brother Sun Ce, the little overlord, he has been committed to internal stability, and it is impossible to send troops. As for Liu Zhang in Yizhou, he was weak and incompetent, and even Zhang Lu, who was close at hand, couldn't help it, let alone Cao Cao's northern expedition. Although Ma Teng and Han Sui are in the northwest, there are too many internal factions and their own contradictions, even if they can exert their power for a while, it is difficult to last. Now only Eryuan, who is united with Wuhuan, can disrupt the political situation in the north, but Ruyan does not recommend using these two chess pieces at this time. ”

"Yuan Shang, Yuan Xi?" Frost Moon pondered for a moment and continued to ask, "What is Ruyan's opinion?" ”

Ruyan gestured while analyzing:

Ruyan thought that Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi alone were not enough to deal with Cao Cao. Although provoking the contradiction between Er Yuan and Cao Cao can contain Cao Cao in the short term, this is not a long-term solution. Because once the second Yuan fails, Cao Cao will have no worries about the north, and can rest assured and boldly pass through the south, and then we will have to face a more severe situation than now. ”

"Ruyan's analysis is very reasonable." Frost Moon nodded approvingly.

"Do you just let Cao Cao go? If Cao Cao is allowed to stabilize the situation in the north, it will be even more difficult to deal with him in the future. The female general, who was sitting on the right side of Ruyan, expressed the doubts in her heart. This person is also dressed in a dark gray military uniform, wearing a flat top, a goose egg face, a dark pear vortex, a delicate complexion, and a beautiful and moving complexion. Her name is Ren Ruyue, and she was the commander-in-chief of the Southern Military Region at the time.

Hearing this, Frost Moon shifted her gaze to the questioner and asked:

"I wonder what Ruyue thinks?"

"The subordinates think that they should still provoke the relationship between Er Yuan and Cao Cao." Ruyue proposed, "Although the overall strength of these two Yuan is weaker than Cao Cao, it can't let Cao Cao go too well. Moreover, the soldiers of Wuhuan are good at cavalry and archery, and they may not be inferior when competing with Cao Cao. ”

Frost Moon laughed, and then asked rhetorically:

"To this day, does Ruyue still despise Cao Cao so much?"

Due to Frost Moon's high prestige in the army, Ruyue didn't dare to argue with Frost Moon, and her momentum suddenly weakened by half, so she had to whisper:

"The subordinates did not mean ...... this"

Frost Moon patted her thigh and sighed:

"To say that Cao Cao is indeed a great character. Seven years ago, Yuan Shao's power was in full swing, and the Cloud Heaven Kingdom had secretly helped Cao Cao fight against Yuan Shao. But he didn't think about it, just through the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao completely turned the tide of the battle from defense to offense. Not only that, but he also skillfully took advantage of the contradictions between Yuan Shao's three sons, and completely occupied Hebei, Qing, You, and the four states in just a few years, and the scenery was unlimited for a while.

"Originally, when our army assisted Cao Cao, we already had a hand, and we did not let Cao Cao know the location and contact information of our army. However, Cao Cao dared to deliberately put himself in a desperate situation when the victory of Guandu was not divided, so as to lure our army to attack and rescue him, and then ambush the elite to raid our army. Our army suffered heavy losses in this battle, and it could no longer affect the situation of the battle after that. This kind of courage and resourcefulness is beyond the reach of others. ”

Shuangyue, who has always hated men, still can't help but show admiration when talking about Cao Cao, and Cao Cao's influence can be seen from this. Frost Moon paused slightly and continued:

"At the time of the Battle of Guandu, I had not yet served as the commander-in-chief of the Coordination Headquarters of the Five Military Regions, nor had I participated in those military operations, so I could not compete with Cao Cao himself on the battlefield. However, based on the painful lessons of the past, I think that in order to deal with heroes like Cao Cao, we must not be lenient to the enemy, let alone have a fluke mentality. Otherwise, they will fight the snake and not die, and they will kill themselves. ”

At this time, Frost Moon recalled her experience of ascending to the throne. Six years ago, at that time, Shuangyue's position was only the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Military Region, but he was the most outstanding person among the first-level commanders of all military regions.

Since Shuang Yue became the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Military Region, he has made three major achievements:

First, quickly support the little overlord Sun Ce to unify Jiangdong and stabilize the situation in Yangzhou. If you push back the time to the Xingping period, although the north was divided by a group of heroes at that time, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zhan, Lu Bu, and Yuan Shu all occupied a state or even more than one state, and their strength could not be said to be strong; Liu Biao in the south also controlled the rest of Jingzhou's counties except Nanyang, but Yangzhou was divided at that time. In order to prevent other princes from expanding their influence to Yangzhou, the high-ranking military circles of the Yunxiao Heavenly Kingdom decided to support one person to unify Yangzhou. Frost Moon keenly chose the little overlord Sun Ce, and secretly attacked Sun Ce's opponents, assisting him in attacking the counties, so that he could take the entire Jiangdong in just a few years.

Second, infiltrate and control Shanyue in Yangzhou. Shuangyue cleverly took advantage of the conflict between Shanyue and the Han people, broke his men into pieces, infiltrated the Shanyue gathering area, and took control of Shanyue in Yangzhou within a few years, so as to control the situation in Jiangdong.

Third, it is invincible and invincible. Every time there is a major battle, Frost Moon must do it himself, and all battles that Frost Moon personally commands will be victorious. Among them, Ruyan, who is the deputy of Frost Moon, has contributed a lot, and the two have worked closely together, and it has become a good story for a while.

It was with these three feats that Shuangyue was able to replace his predecessor who died on the battlefield of Guandu and was promoted to the new commander-in-chief of the coordination headquarters of the five major military regions. When the new official took office, the biggest problem faced by Shuangyue at that time was how to integrate the two major military regions of the Central Plains and the North, which were seriously damaged. The commanders-in-chief of these two military regions were killed on the Guandu battlefield, the Central Plains Military Region was completely wiped out, and the Northern Military Region was also wounded, with more than two-thirds of its personnel damaged.

Because the Yunxiao Heavenly Kingdom is small and outnumbered, it is used to implementing the policy of elite soldiers, so it is impossible to replenish so many shortages of troops for a while. Ruyan then proposed that Shuangyue change the previous policy of military raids and harassment, and instead use political infiltration to influence the political situation in the north. Shi Huiran, who was originally in charge of the affairs of the Yue nationality in the Eastern Military Region, was promoted to commander-in-chief of the Central Plains Military Region and concurrently commander-in-chief of the Northern Military Region, and at the same time, 200 people were transferred from other military regions to urgently supplement the Central Plains Military Region. After Shi Huiran took office, he made full use of his experience in infiltrating the Yue nationality area, divided the department into parts, and focused on infiltrating the two core cities of Xudu and Yecheng, and actively contacted the ministers and ministers of various factions and wealthy families, and achieved remarkable results within a few years. Although it was not possible to prevent Cao Cao from unifying the north militarily, the completion of political infiltration could also play a miraculous role in future conquests.

Because of Shuangyue's outstanding work ability and excellent achievements, she became even more famous in the military circles, and was awarded the honorary title of General of the Military God by the top of the military circles, and her deputy Ruyan was also awarded the honorary title of General of the Military Division.

The past does not forget the teacher of the future, and Shuangyue has never dared to despise Cao Cao, an opponent, so she will say the above remarks.

Hearing what Frost Moon said, the generals nodded their heads in approval.

"But now which force can you rely on to contain Cao Cao?" Ruyue seemed unwilling and continued to ask.

"Although Er Yuan is a good anti-Cao force, as Yan Shicai said, if they only fight Cao Cao, the chance of success is not great. So......" Frost Moon paused, raised her hand to guide the face from afar, and continued, "For today's plan, the only way to do our best is to create conditions for the southern forces to send troops to the Northern Expedition. Only by attacking the north and south together and letting him take care of himself can it be possible to defeat Cao Cao, who is in full swing. Therefore, we must not act recklessly until the conditions are ripe. ”

Hearing what Frost Moon said, Ruyue knew that she must have a plan, so she said respectfully:

"The general of the military god is far-sighted, and his subordinates admire! It's just that his subordinates are stupid, but I don't know who will be Cao Cao's fierce rival among the southern forces now? ”

Shuangyue did not answer Ruyue directly, but said to Ruyan in an inquiring tone:

"What do you think about this matter?"

"I'm afraid it's only Sun Quan." Ruyan immediately responded.

"Ruyan's thoughts coincide with mine." Shuangyue said approvingly, and then moved her gaze back to Ruyue, "That's why we secretly helped Sun Quan to pacify Shanyue before. Although there is our elite to help from the side, Sun Quan's own strength should not be underestimated. Judging from his method of dispatching troops, he does not look like a novice at all. ”

"I'm afraid it's not enough to rely on one Sun Quan alone." Ruyan rubbed his chin and added.

"Of course, you can't rely on just one Sun Quan. Sun Quan's strength is far from the level of shaking Cao Cao head-on, and we still need to make good use of Liu Biao. Frost Moon explained, "Although Liu Biao is not enterprising, he is good at defense. Therefore, we have to use Liu Biao to drag Cao Cao, and then contact Sun Quan, Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Er Yuan to attack Cao Cao's rear together. The rear is in an emergency, if Cao Cao returns to the army to rescue, Liu Biao can take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, why worry about Cao Cao being undefeated! ”

After some deduction by Frost Moon, it seems that the situation has taken a turn for the better. At this time, Ruyan hit the point directly, and said in a deep voice:

"It's a pity that Liu Biao is old, but his successor is a big hidden danger!"

Frost Moon nodded, deeply convinced of this, and said frankly:

As Yan said, this is a major concern for Jingzhou. However, the Great War between the North and the South is only in these few years, and I just hope that Liu Biao can survive until that day. ”

Ruyan shook her slender fingers and reminded Frost Moon:

"In addition, the enmity between Er Yuan and Cao Cao is as deep as the sea, and Ruyan is still worried that they will act recklessly because of the remoteness of Liaoxi."

"This is their way to death, and we can't do anything about it!" Frost Moon said helplessly.

After some discussion, there was no objection.

Seeing this, Frost Moon said loudly:

"Shi Huiran, commander-in-chief of the Central Plains Military Region."

"Yes." A tall female general sitting next to Qingyan heard the sound and agreed.

"I order you to arrange for people to spread rumors in Xudu, so that those ministers who are dissatisfied with Cao Cao will take action. In this way, Cao Cao inevitably lacked skills in order to stabilize the situation, so as to create a relatively stable external environment for Sun Quan's internal integration. Frost Moon commanded.

"Yes, my subordinates understand." Shi Huiran replied.

"Chu Yuxin, commander-in-chief of the Eastern Military Region." Frost Moon said loudly.

"Yes." A short female general sitting next to Ruyue heard the sound and agreed.

"For the sake of prudence, I still need to go to Soochow in person, and as before, temporarily hand over the first brigade of the 4th battalion under your command to me under my direct command. And you yourself are in charge of Shangoe's work, and strive to regain control of Shanyue as soon as possible. Frost Moon commanded.

"Yes, my subordinates understand." Yu Xin replied.

"In addition, Yu Xin also needs to re-select a subordinate to serve as the leader of the Yue affairs in Luling County." Frost Moon commanded.

"Yes." Yu Xin replied.

In an instant, Frost Moon was dazed for some reason, and the whole person was stunned.

I saw her covering the iron mask with her hand and not saying a word. When the generals at the meeting saw this, they were all at a loss.

Although Ruyan beside him couldn't see, he couldn't help but wonder when he heard the silence in the venue, so he asked softly:

"Frost Moon, what's going on?"

"No, it's okay......" Shuangyue rubbed her eyes and smiled helplessly, "I'm sorry, I lost my temper just now." Let's go on. Ren Ruyue, commander-in-chief of the Southern Military Region. ”

Frost Moon said goodbye and set her eyes on Ruyue.

"Yes." Ruyue agreed.

"In the days when I am away, you will have to worry a lot about the affairs of Jingzhou. I need a stable Jingzhou to counter the threat from the north, and you can take the initiative to eradicate anyone who threatens the stability of Jingzhou according to the situation. Frost Moon commanded.

"The subordinates understand that the subordinates must live up to the trust." Ruyue replied.

"Like smoke, when I go out, you still stay here, coordinate in the middle, and deal with the military affairs of the Quartet." Frost Moon commanded Ruyan.

"Ruyan understands." Ruyan replied.

Because Ruyan is blind and has difficulty moving, she generally does not go out alone, and coordination is her job.

"Okay, the meeting is over, everyone does what is ordered." Frost Moon waved her hand.

"Yes!" All the generals agreed in unison.
