Chapter 79: Hefei!
Chaisang.
These days, the weather is still cold, Sun Quan almost stays at home, most people think that he is trying his best to prepare for the upcoming all-out war, only Chen Wu and a few other people who have been following him know that now Sun Quan has entered a very difficult state to understand.
This young general who was enthusiastic on the surface seemed to be a different person after being besieged by Huang Zhong and almost captured, although very few people knew about this matter, and Chen Wu also prevaricated his subordinates in the name of conducting drills with Liu Bei, but Sun Quan always had a knot in his heart, and he couldn't calm down for a long time after returning to Chaisang.
Guan Ping can go to a thousand years later, but he can't.
Although he preferred to believe that Guan Ping was just some witchcraft trick, the half-eaten piece of soap told him that it should be true.
Sun Quan is determined to be in the world, and those who want to get the world must be strengthened by the Mandate of Heaven, he thought that he was very close to the Mandate of Heaven, but Huang Zhong's surprise attack smashed all this.
After Sun Quan returned to Chaisang, he was really decadent for a long time, and he was even reluctant to act with Zhou Yu's letters about the war, although he was reluctant to cheer up under Zhang Zhao's urging, but there was always a voice in his heart that tortured him repeatedly.
Without the Mandate of Heaven, what is the use of me winning this battle?
On this day, Sun Quan was rarely in good spirits, and accompanied by Chen Wu, he went out of the city to inspect the transportation of grain and grass.
With the "full support" of Zhang Zhao, a loyal minister, it is rare for all families in Jiangdong to be honest, shipbuilding and grain transportation are in order, and even preparations have been made for spring plowing in the coming year.
If it was before, Sun Quan would have been happier when he saw this scene, and at least he would have to say something beautiful to encourage the officials who braved the cold wind to accompany him to inspect, but Sun Quan was in a bad mood, so he just nodded casually and returned to his mansion.
He was about to call for food and drink, but he was surprised to find two pieces of paper abruptly placed on the table.
"Someone!" He roared loudly, and the servants hurried to inquire with great fear what was the Lord's displeasure.
Sun Quan slowly narrowed his eyes, holding the few sheets of paper that were as thin as cicada wings and quite exquisite, and said in a somewhat trembling voice:
"Who has been here before?"
"Back to the Lord, General Boyang came to see the Lord, and when he heard that the Lord was not there, he left after a while."
Others are definitely not qualified to enter Sun Quan's study to wait, but Sun Ben can.
Because of Sun Fuheng's death, Sun Quan has always felt sorry for this cousin who has repeatedly made military exploits, and once said that if Sun Ben came to visit, he could enter his study without reporting to show his brother's unity.
Sun Ben was resentful in his heart, he didn't use such a privilege to beg for death before, he took the initiative to visit today, and left these papers on the table, which made Sun Quan feel a little strange.
He waved his hand away from the servants, Chen Wu personally stood guard outside the door, and Sun Quan sat precariously at this time, carefully reading the words on the paper.
At this look, Sun Quan's eyes suddenly widened, and he subconsciously touched the neat words on the paper with his hand.
This does not seem to be a text written in ink.
Sun Quan didn't recognize most of the texts, but after reading them carefully, he still saw the names of Sun Quan, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Zhang Liao and others appearing in a large number of these texts, and through various words, he thought that this seemed to be a description of a great war in which he participated.
He calmed down, his cousin had a very poor relationship with him, and he shouldn't just get something to pretend to be a ghost to please himself, and besides, this paper and the ink on it are not something ordinary people can create, could it be that he found a few heavenly books from somewhere, so he hurriedly gave them to himself?
Of course, with Sun Quan's wisdom, if you think about it a little, you can also think of Guan Ping being able to travel a thousand years later.
But firstly, he never fully believed that Guan Ping had such a powerful ability, secondly, he refused to believe that someone would share the events of a thousand years from now, and thirdly, he felt that he had the air of destiny in the dark, so he subconsciously excluded this option.
He prefers to believe that this is the heavens smiling at him, and it is the heavens that are guiding him to achieve great things.
Sun Quan spread several pieces of paper on the table, and carefully read the words on them, and found that each one had his own name or that of other Wu generals, and all the battles on it pointed to the same place.
Hefei!
Hefei?!
When Sun Ce attacked Lujiang, he briefly occupied Hefei, but later because of Sun Ce's death, Li Shu rebelled, and Sun Quan's strategic focus was on Huang Zu's side, so he lost his grasp of the two Huai, and Hefei naturally couldn't take care of the competition.
Judging from the map, the location of Hefei is exactly the throat of Lianghuai, and if you want to enter Shouchun, you must first pull out this place.
Well, in my impression, the city wall of Hefei is low, surrounded by puddles, and close to Chaohu Lake, it seems that it is not difficult to occupy it. Could it be that Liu Fu, who occupied Hefei, has done something in the past few years, which is why he has created so much trouble for later things.
Sun Quan thought of what Chen Wu persuaded him before-Guan Ping had lived in Jingxiang for a long time, if he could enter the millennium as early as possible, he would have succeeded a long time ago, he must have found some opportunity to complete this unthinkable thing. Now that he has obtained these heavenly books, does it mean that his future is in Hefei?
As long as you conquer this place, you can open the door to your destiny and get a glimpse of the mysteries of a thousand years later?
"Zi Lie, Zi Lie!" Sun Quan called excitedly, Chen Wu hurriedly pushed open the door, and when he saw Sun Quan's excited face, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly asked Sun Quan what instructions he had.
"Two things, no, three things! First, first ask Boyang how he found this heavenly book. Second, Ling Gongjin quickly marched and immediately defeated the Cao thief.
Third, all the spies should be sent out to investigate the matter of Hefei at once, and if there is any news, it must be reported immediately, and there must be no mistakes. ”
Chen Wu nodded again and again, and repeated: "Sun Boyang, Zhou Gongjin, and Hefei have written down the three things, please rest assured." ”
Seeing Chen Wu go out with his head held high, Sun Quan couldn't suppress the joy in his heart.
He quickly got up and took out a square box from the dark compartment in the study.
This square box is carved with expensive white jade from the Western Regions, the four corners are wrapped with gold, and the surface of the box is carved with bats, gluttony, auspicious clouds, and even the outer cloth is the best Shu brocade, which is a rare treasure in the Central Plains Palace.
Sun Quan slowly opened the square box and took out the piece of soap that Lu Su had given him from it tremblingly.
This snow-white soap is better than white jade, which makes people look at the vulgarity, Zhou Yu was quite vigilant before, but Sun Quan still secretly enjoyed half of it, I didn't expect this strange fragrant artifact to be so bitter, but to taste it carefully, Sun Quan is actually familiar with this bitter taste, and deeply feels that this thing is not bad, and it is the same as the popular tea among Coats nowadays.
He asked for a copper stove, salt, honey, green onion and ginger and other tea utensils, boiled the mountain dew that had been treasured for a long time, and put the remaining half of the soap into the water.
Watching this white jade-like soap gradually turn into a ball of crystal bubbles, Sun Quan seemed to get a rare satisfaction in his heart.
After making this cup of soapy water, he took a sip lightly, slowly clenched his wide right hand, and said to himself:
"Father, eldest brother, when I go to Hefei, I will definitely come back and tell you what it will look like in a thousand years!"
