Chapter 122: The Great Victory of Chibi
While Zhuge Liang understood it, Sun Quan also figured it out.
Zhou Yu also wanted to ask: "Kong ...... Kong Ming, what does Cao Ang mean? ”
"This ......"
"Gong Jin, go back and talk about it first, it's inconvenient here, Cao Cao is going to call!"
Obviously, Sun Quan didn't want things to be said here, so the guards next to him brought them four horses and distributed them to them.
Sun Quan spoke, Zhou Yu didn't ask, and got on the horse with Sun Quan and hurried away, if he didn't leave, he really couldn't go, and he was really not so easy to talk to Cao Cao.
And in the back, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang also got on the horse.
"Strategist, what does Cao Ang mean?" Liu Bei also asked.
"Lord, he is giving Sun Quan a chance to serve, let Sun Quan go back, and write a letter to Cao Cao himself."
"What? Didn't you talk to Dongwu Chen about the benefits and the stakes, and Sun Quan could not be surrendered? ”
Liu Bei didn't believe it, Zhuge Liang's classic of fighting Confucianism had only passed for a short time, and Zhou Yu was the main battle, and his prestige in Jiangdong was unmatched, didn't Sun Quan know that he had anything left to take refuge in Cao Cao?
Zhuge Liang said before that others can descend, but Wu Hou cannot.
That's because Wu Hou is the lord of Jiangdong, and others have just changed their masters, what about him?
But this time, Zhuge Liang sighed and said: "This time is different from the past, then Sun Quan, I'm afraid it's going to fall." ”
"Then why couldn't he come down before, but now he can come down again?"
"Because of Cao Ang, he can talk to Cao Cao......"
"What about us?"
"Don't worry, my lord, let's go back first and then figure out a way!"
Zhuge Liang didn't want to spend time here, "That Cao Ang...... If he is really thoughtful, the lord should be careful of him. ”
All four of them left, and there were still some people left in the camp, but Cao Ang didn't care about them.
……
The Soochow army was completely dead and did not plan to return to the camp, and the boats on the river were running downstream.
Cao Ang asked everyone else to go out, and he waited for Cao Cao to come over, and Sun Shangxiang was by his side.
"Xin'er, aren't you going along?"
"The concubine can't go back, as I said just now, the concubine would rather be a cow and a horse, and die by the son's side."
"How scary is this, why do you say that?"
"The concubine knows the friendship of the son, and the brother has been benevolent and righteous, if the prime minister is punished, the concubine is willing to bear the ......"
Hearing her say this, Cao Ang felt that she understood crookedly, but he didn't know how to tell her.
To put it bluntly, will Sun Shangxiang be disappointed, and let her keep the misunderstanding, okay?
She was actually moved, because Cao Ang released people according to her wishes twice, and this kind of kindness was not promised by herself......
But I have to say that Sun Shangxiang really misunderstood.
Cao Ang is not a person who can't walk when he sees a beautiful woman, and of course letting Sun Quan go is to leave a chance for himself.
Now that he has broken the red cliff, taking the camp is a great victory, and it makes no difference whether he lets people go or not, and there is no loss of credit.
What is the greatest credit, is the first credit!
Taking the camp is the first achievement, but if Wu Hou is captured again, what can Cao Cao give him?
Capturing the enemy camp in Chibi is enough to seal the world, and no matter how much credit Cao Cao has, can he give way to you?
Therefore, leaving Sun Quan on this line and letting Sun Quan negotiate peace with Cao Cao is to leave a backing for himself, and to give Jiangdong a favor.
Second, it is also to let Cao Cao lose a little less.
Assuming that Cao Cao continued to attack Jiangdong, the more places he occupied, the greater the losses, and Wu Hou had to be in charge.
The resistance of the mountain people is difficult for a long time, and Cao Cao may be able to die here, and the mountain terrain is very complicated.
Cao Ang knew that this kind of troublesome guerrilla warfare could consume an empire, and it had happened more than once in later generations.
If Sun Quan is destroyed now, and Jiangdong is hastily occupied, then Jiangdong will become a quagmire.
The best way is to let Sun Quan surrender first, and let him be used to defend Jiangdong.
Actually...... It doesn't matter if the minister doesn't surrender or not, now Cao Cao doesn't have the strength to take Jiangdong, and the prestige that Sun Jian and Sun Ce have beaten down is an intangible asset, which is not easy to measure with military strength.
"Don't bear it, let my father know that you are in my camp, and you will still affect me."
"How's that to be?"
Cao Ang glanced at Sun Shangxiang: "You can leave if you want to, but if you want to stay, this outfit is too eye-catching." ”
Sun Shangxiang realized that her female general style was really luxurious.
"Childe, the concubine is going to change into an ordinary dress."
"Go ahead...... Remember, you have to black your face too, otherwise it will look too good. ”
Cao Ang himself is a person who has seen countless P pictures in later generations, and he can withstand what he looks like, but others in this era cannot.
Sun Shangxiang went to change his armor, and Cao Ang asked the guards to call Wen Ping and Huang Zhong.
"Remember, you can't tell anyone what you just happened."
"Don't worry, Childe, I'll remember it!"
Cao Ang nodded, looked at them and said slowly: "Don't worry, I will ask you for credit, the credit for being able to lay down the Chibi camp belongs to you, and you are the first to take credit in this battle." ”
Huang Zhong said with a smile: "Childe doesn't have to be like this, loyal to this life, it is enough to have Childe's appreciation!" ”
"Then what's the matter, I can't rush to attack with you, and it's useless for me to grab it, you also have to accumulate more attacks, so that you can live a good life in the future."
"How can I mess around, I still have to fight the world with my son!"
Huang Zhong is very simple, just while he can still fight, he can exert his residual heat, how many days do he have to mix?
Wen Ping is different, but he is not greedy for merit: "Son, I don't have to ask for merit, the prime minister will remember it anyway." ”
There is nothing to invite here, he is the main general, and of course Cao Cao will be rewarded.
As for Cao Ang, his way of remembering his merits is naturally different from others, no matter what Cao Cao says, it is different.
So when Cao Cao sent his son into the army, he said that it was the same as other soldiers, don't take it to heart, it must be different......
"Okay, open the gate and greet the prime minister, they should be here soon."
At this time, the sky is almost dawn, and Cao Cao's side should have been arranged, and he will definitely bring the elite to come and see.
After a night of hard fighting, many people were in good spirits.
Cao Cao really brought all the soldiers over, and naturally someone was arranged to guard the Wulin Water Village.
Cao Ang had already prepared and let Cao Cao take a turn in the Dongwu camp first, Cao Cao laughed and was refreshed.
In the end, Cao Cao was brought into the meeting hall in the Dongwu camp.
Everyone stood in line, Cao Cao looked at the generals and nodded slightly: "Yes, although I have the confidence of Ping Jiangdong, but this success is still unexpected, all because of my son's strategy!" ”
Cao Pi next to him was a little unconvinced: "Father, let me fight next time, always let the eldest brother go, we have become useless people." ”
"Hahaha......"
Cao Cao only smiled, as if this was deliberately to make him happy, Cao Pi didn't know that the whole process was arranged by Cao Ang.
casually replied: "Okay, we can drive the army straight to Jiangdong, Zihuan, you have a chance!" ”
