Sun Quan crossed the river to inspect and look at the camps, but he still didn't find anyone satisfied, and his heart became more and more lost.

Don't seek to find generals like Zhou Yu and Tai Shici, it's good to be Zhou Tai, Ding Feng and the like!

In recent years, he has personally promoted and appointed scribes and Confucians, children of families, and none of them can fight.

Thinking that when Sun Ce went to Jiangdong, how many generals and heroes were used for him, could it have been dug up a long time ago?

Cao Cao occupied the Central Plains, not to mention the abundance of talents, Liu Qi also promoted many young heroes in Jingzhou, why is there only one in Jiangdong available?

Sun Quan came to the Chaohu camp with a melancholy stomach, Cheng Pu led the generals to greet him, all with solemn expressions, he only came once two months ago, and now he is coming again, don't you want to personally command the troops?

Cheng Pu also frowned slightly, now is the critical moment to seize Huainan, everyone trains every day to make a defensive posture, for fear of alarming the Cao army, and all the previous achievements are wasted.

Sun Quan went north to inspect twice, if Cao Ren was alert and strengthened his precautions, wouldn't this add to the chaos?

Sitting in the account, the generals looked at each other, if Sun Quan was in a hurry to urge the battle, he would clash with Zhou Yu's generals, and no one dared to say more.

Cheng Pu had no choice but to break the silence, clenched his fists and asked, "If the lord has an order, he just sends someone to send it, why bother to come in person?" ”

Sun Quan was displeased when he heard this, could it be that I came to the army, it would be superfluous?

There was a friendly smile on his face: "I'm here to visit everyone!" The generals have been training for more than half a year, how are the soldiers doing? ”

"All well!" Cheng Pu replied: "The governor of the capital has been at sea for several months, and there has been no news so far, so we dare not act rashly, but the soldiers are waiting for the day, and if there is an order from the general, they can immediately send troops." ”

"Good!" Sun Quan saw that the generals looked strange, and said with a dry smile: "Now that Cao Thief is far away in Guanzhong, the Metropolitan Governor will definitely succeed in one fell swoop, and he will definitely go to Shouchun in person one day to celebrate his achievements with the generals." ”

The generals thanked them one after another, and said some greetings that were not salty or light, and Sun Quan also felt that it was a little redundant, so he left the camp overnight and returned to Misu that day.

Standing on the bow of the ship and looking at the bright moon, Sun Quan's face was even more gloomy than the night, and this northern tour made him feel the distance from the soldiers even more.

Although the loyalty of Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and other generals is undoubted, in terms of military orders, they still obey Zhou Yu's orders, even if there is no news for several months, they still firmly wait for military orders.

"People say that Gongjin is good at governing the army, and the military discipline is strict, and it really deserves its reputation!"

Sun Quan let out a long sigh and tried his best to convince himself, but Mrs. Wu's words rang in his ears again, and he suddenly felt upset.

In the middle of the night, when I arrived at the camp, I couldn't sleep all night, and when I was about to fall asleep, I was woken up by the sound of military training.

At this time, the sky was slightly bright, Sun Quan got up in his clothes, went to the corridor to watch, only to see the distance under the wet beard mountain, the bow of the ship was lit up, the fleet shuttled back and forth, and the navy was drilling.

At the same time, on the opposite Qibao Mountain, the cavalry galloped, and on the river connecting the two mountains, the newly built pontoon bridge and the connecting boat, the war horses galloped past, as if walking on the ground.

Sun Quan watched silently for a while, changed into civilian clothes and came to the bridgehead, and saw that Lu Meng led the cavalry, dispatched men and horses and warships, advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, and had their own ways of attacking and defending.

Even though it is not on the Chaohu front, the morale is high, but the training is meticulous, and the three armies are neatly lined.

It wasn't until the morning sun rose and the battalions finished training that Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief, called the herald holding the flag at the bridgehead and asked, "Why is General Lu training so hard today?" ”

The soldier replied: "We have training every day, three days of small exercises, five days of big exercises, ten days of naval attack and defense, and half moon three armies to practice together. Today is the period of the great exercise, and later the navy will go out of the mustache and go to the river to drive a boat for training. ”

Sun Quan was pleasantly surprised when he heard this, and immediately ordered: "Quickly call General Lu to see me." ”

The herald hurried away, Sun Quan also secretly clenched his fists, and hurried back to the camp, this Lu Meng acted rudely, his mouth was dirty, and he always regarded him as a reckless man.

But looking at his training today, the plan is relaxed, and the lineup is extremely rigorous, if it can be changed, although it is not as good as Zhou Yu and Tai Shici, but as a confidant general trained by himself, he can also take charge of himself.

After a while, Lu Meng came quickly, hugged his fists and said: "Lu Meng saw Wu Hou, he was busy with military training this morning, and he was late in greetings, and he hoped to forgive his sins." ”

Sun Quan looked at Lu Meng and nodded secretly, the hairy boy of the year had grown up, his armor was on his body, his face was slightly dark, and he exuded a murderous aura.

The young man enlisted in the army with Deng Dang in his teens, and led his troops after Deng Dang's death.

The more Sun Quan looked at it, the more he liked it, and said with a smile: "Ziming is now in charge of soldiers and horses, and he is well-trained, have you ever studied literature and studied and explored the art of war?" ”

Lu Meng was stunned, and for some reason he asked this question, he hugged his fists and said: "In today's troubled times, when it is the time to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, the eldest husband should learn from Wei Qing and Huo Quai, fight on the battlefield, fight against thieves and eliminate violence, and learn to write and practice calligraphy It is a corrupt matter, and his subordinates disdain it. ”

Sun Quan shook his head and sighed: "Reading is not to stop the corruption of the ancient Confucian scriptures, but to enlighten wisdom and reason!" You are now the commander of the three armies, and you must learn from one side! If you stop here, you will just be a partial general, charging into battle. ”

Lu Meng was stunned, but he was obviously very impatient with studying the scriptures, and frowned: "My subordinates are busy with military affairs, and they practice military and martial arts all day long, so how can they have the leisure to study the scriptures?" ”

Sun Quan smiled and said, "Why does Lone want you to study the scriptures and become the doctor of the Five Classics?" It's just a reminder that you need to dabble more and see more of the past. You are busy with military affairs, how can I have all the opportunities in the day and not sleep at night? If you study alone, you think it will be of great benefit, and so should you! ”

Lu Meng hurriedly said: "How dare your subordinates compare with the lord? It's just that the books of the world are as vast as the sea, and I don't know where to start. ”

Sun Quan said: "You are a military general, since you should learn the art of war first, like the governor of the capital, he has a strategy and strategizes, isn't there another general in Jiangdong?" ”

Lu Meng was excited when he heard this, in the entire Eastern Wu army, there was no disrespect for Zhou Yu, and the same was true for Lu Meng, Sun Quan actually said that he could do Zhou Yu's level, how could he not be enthusiastic?

Lu Meng dared to fight by nature, never afraid of any opponent, and Zhou Lang's graceful demeanor appeared in his mind, and he muttered: "The art of war? ”

Sun Quan nodded and said, "Sun Tzu said: Go to the army and plot." A hundred battles are won, and the good ones who are not good are also good; The soldiers who surrender without a fight, and the good ones are also good. If you don't know the war and don't learn the art of war, how can you lead the three armies and learn to defend Huo Feng Wolf Juxu? ”

Lu Meng woke up like a dream, was shocked, bowed down and said: "The words of the lord are really like a slap in the face." I heard that Guan Yunchang is just a martial artist, but he often reads the Spring and Autumn Period at night, and he can't release the scroll, I thought that he was selling his reputation and pretending to be a gesture, but today I know what he means. Lu Meng went to school on the same day, even if he couldn't be Wei Huo, he had to be comparable to Guan Yu and worry about the main centimeter. ”

"It's really teachable!" Sun Quan laughed with relief, picked up Lu Meng with his own hands, grabbed his arm and said: "After being alone for Sun Wu, the family has thirty-six volumes of "Sun Tzu's Art of War". ”

Lu Meng was flattered, and immediately knelt down to thank him: "How can Lu Meng make the lord so bothered?" I am willing to serve the work of dogs and horses, although I will never give up. ”

Sun Quan helped Lu Meng up, and said with a loud smile: "With the courage of a general, supplemented by Sun Tzu's Art of War, although Guan Yu has thousands of enemies, he is also a defeated general under the public!" ”
