Zhuge Liang has done a very perfect job in Hedong and the annexation of the state, and the defense of the annex is like an iron pass.

Even under the pretext of sending troops, he directly shocked the restless people in Na Bingzhou, Hedong, Hongnong and many other places, and then forcibly implemented his own decree and implemented the decree of the Han Dynasty.

Of course, these decrees are not very good for them, especially for many wealthy families, these decrees are too harsh.

It's fair, but it's too harsh!

Under such draconian circumstances, this decree will naturally be denied and rejected, and even cause them to unite in resistance.

But this time ....

"Zhuge Liang's dog thief actually led tens of thousands of troops to guard here, what is he guarding? Guarding us?

The front line is in Hedong, what is he doing in Yanmen and Shangjun like this, who is this army pointing at? ”

At this moment, with the blessing of the army, these wealthy families also handed over everything they should hand over very happily, and they became extremely honest.

And in this case, this Zhuge Liang is not so much going out to conquer the state, but staying in this state, and then preparing to govern the northern border and the front line of the Han Dynasty.

It can even be said that Zhuge Liang made it clear that he wanted to let Bingzhou have its own grain land.

In this way, it can reduce the pressure on grain and grass in Hedong and Chang'an, and secondly, it can also prepare for the future.

It can be said that Zhuge Liang's monopoly on power at this time made I don't know how many people envy, jealous and hateful.

For example, Sima Yi has a lot of opinions about Zhuge Kongming!

But his behavior naturally attracted many people's thoughts, that is, why did he refuse to continue the offensive when he was in such a situation?

And for this kind of rhetoric, this time the prime minister Zhuge laughed directly.

"This time, the main battlefield is not waiting for us!"

It's just that these words are really difficult for people to understand, until.... These news also quickly spread to the Jiangdong on the other side.

At this time, it was in the land of Gangdong Wu County.

Cao Zhen once again appeared in front of him, and there seemed to be an argument that would never stop...

"Now that Sun Quan's demise is imminent, he is about to be annihilated by our army, but you have to withdraw at this time.

What the hell do you mean! ”

"You only see what you see in front of you, why don't you see what has become behind me!

It has taken too long for this battle to get to this point, and the prince of the Han Dynasty, Liu Feng, and Zhao Yun are watching behind me at this time.

Runan was lost, and the two places of Qichun and Lujiang are now in Xu Shu and the operation of the prince of the Han Dynasty. Under the front of the soldiers, they are in danger of being flanked by the front and rear at any time!

Xuzhou was in turmoil, and the people of Tuntian in the land of Huaisi were relocated in large numbers, and the entire Huaisi was almost empty!

As the leading general, we should think about defeat before we win.

At this time, Shouchun and other places have already separated from Qingxu, and if we continue to attack Wu County, not only will there be a shortage of food and straw at any time, and the danger of demoralization will decline.

There will be a danger of overturning and becoming a lone army!

At this time, when we should return to Shouchun, relocate the people to Tuntian Huaisi, and reorganize the defense line in order to plan for the future! ”

"Bastard!

Aren't you doing this to give up the territory that I have been waiting for so hard to conquer to others?

Are you Your Majesty's courtier, general, or the spy of the big-eared thief Liu Xuande! ”

"You are fooling around, this is the complete time, and if you continue to lose, don't you worry about Liu Feng sending troops to sneak attack the rear of our wait?"

"Although he, Liu Feng, is the prince of a country, he has been as timid as a mouse since he was a child, how could he sneak attack me at this time!"

"Then Zhao Yun is also a cowardly person?"

"You..."

"Enough!" Cao Zhen directly shouted to interrupt their words, and looked at the people in front of him who were still dissatisfied with each other, and he also snorted coldly.

"The enemy is now, wait for what you want to do! Could it be... Is it civil strife? ”

After hearing Cao Zhen's angry words, the generals under his command quickly turned around and asked Cao Zhen for their guilt.

However, Cao Zhen knows very well that it is not an accident that there is such a situation now, and they are not really thinking about the overall situation as they just said.

It was not so much that they were arguing about continuing to fight or retreating, but rather that it was a rivalry between Cao Ren, Cao Xiu, Zang Ba and others.

This time, Cao Zhen only had two soldiers and horses under his command.

Cao Ren and Cao Xiu's headquarters in Huaisi, Yuzhou, were mainly soldiers and horses from the southeast line of the Cao family.

Or the Qingxu soldiers and horses under Zang Ba...

At this time, Zang Ba already knew that Xuzhou had changed people at this time, and he also knew that Wang Xiang was sitting in Xuzhou at this time.

So he inevitably felt a little flustered in his heart, after Cao Ang, the new king of Han Wei, had just succeeded to the throne, although there was no mutiny in the Qingxu army this time.

But the other party also didn't give him Cao Ang's face at all, this.... The land of Qingxu is a big taboo!

The original scene can be regarded as still vivid.

It's no secret that he has done something in Qingxu over the years!

So Zang Ba desperately wants to return to Xuzhou and regain control of the overall situation, at least he feels that only by returning to Xuzhou can he be qualified to continue, otherwise he doesn't dare to guarantee what situation he will face next.

But Cao Xiu and Cao Ren categorically would not agree to this matter, not to mention that victory is in sight now.

Just because the battle of Jiangdong was fought like this, there was already the meaning of taking back Qingxu.

Otherwise, a small Jiangdong, Cao Xiu and Cao Ren, one of them is not enough, as for bringing Cao Zhen as well, and directly putting the three Cao Jun clansmen, and even the three clansmen with the highest status, here?

All this has been calculated, but it is true that everyone did not expect that things have come to such a point.

Therefore, Cao Ren and Cao Xiu have not personally come out to express their opinions.

Even Cao Xiu once looked for Cao Zhen in private, wanting to ask him what he meant, but there was an idea in those words that he wanted to persuade him to withdraw from the army.

This... It seems that he has been moved by Zang Ba's words.

Of course, Zang Ba, who also did not end up, has also hinted at his opinion.

His sons are all in Luoyang, although he has some rights, he also knows who gave him these rights, and is willing to continue to desperately protect the land of Qingxu for the Cao family...

The meaning is very clear, and the argument has never stopped.

But now that the news is coming back more and more, the situation is getting more and more weird, and even several generals in Jiangdong now have some not-so-good thoughts in their hearts.

If it weren't for the fact that they had already come this far, I'm afraid they wouldn't have thought about turning back.

Cao Zhen looked around at everyone again, looking at Cao Xiu and Zang Ba, who had been silent, and the old general Cao Ren, who had just rushed back and had not yet expressed his opinion.

Cao Zhen took a deep breath directly.

"Come on, take the map!"

As Cao Zhen's words came out, a large picture was directly carried into the big account by several guards.

Looking at the map of Yangzhou, Yuzhou and even Qingxu, everyone knew that Cao Zhen was probably not idle during this time.

"Actually... Ben also felt that it might be a good choice to withdraw to Huaisi and reorganize the defensive line.

After all, if we continue, we will easily become a lone army, and Xu Shu and Zhao Yun and others are not good people.

and that Li Yan kept wandering around Huiji Wu County, like a difficult rogue that made me and others upset.

We had to be cautious when attacking Wu County, which was very detrimental to the morale of our army! ”

When Cao Zhen said these words, Cao Ren's eyes widened suddenly, and at the same time, a flash of joy appeared in Zang Ba's eyes.

Even, even Cao Xiu became a little entangled at this time.

Of course, he will not be Zang Ba's person, but he is indeed moved by Zang Ba's "this time and that time" rhetoric.

I feel that protecting Dawei at this time is the top priority.

But just give up... Cao Xiu didn't know how to face the court and His Majesty.

Just when someone couldn't help but stand up, Cao Zhen interrupted him again, and then slowly walked in front of Na Yutu and continued to talk to everyone.

"But... Ben thought about it for a moment.

Now that you have returned to Huaisi, is it really safe? ”

"This..."

The sudden change of words made everyone a little stunned, and at the same time, everyone was a little confused about what Cao Zhen wanted to do.

Looking at the large map, Cao Zhen coughed lightly, and then put his hand up.

"Ben will do a lot of deductions on this map, and finally come to the conclusion...

Once we evacuate Wu County and transfer to Huaisi for re-defense, then at most half a year, Jiangdong will change hands, and the Han army will make a comeback.

Even Xu Shu and Zhao Yun and others will advance by land and water to directly attack Huaisi.

The front and back pinching attacks were taken away along with Qing Xu!

When that time comes, I'll really be done..."

Cao Zhen's words made the generals stunned suddenly, for Cao Zhen's real choice, Zang Ba and the others were not completely incomprehensible.

But when Cao Zhen said such words, everyone couldn't help but look a little ugly.

"Is there some, the general... Overly speaking? At this time, Zang Ba finally couldn't sit still, and stood up directly with a word, and began to question Cao Zhen.

Cao Xiu, who was on the side, also stood up immediately after seeing this.

And at Zang Ba is a roar.

"Zang Ba, don't be presumptuous!"

Cao Xiu sat on the battlefield on the Eastern Front all the year round, and was not only the successor of Xiahoudun, but also the chief general of Zang Ba.

Over the years, although the two sides have also had some problems, they have gotten along quite well on the whole, otherwise His Royal Highness Cao Ang, the King of Wei of my Han Dynasty, would not have dragged Qingxu until now to solve it.

If it was before, after Zang Ba heard Cao Xiu's angry rebuke, even if there was something wrong in his heart, he wouldn't really say anything.

But this time, Zang Ba knew that he might be in this battle in the future.

If he didn't evacuate, he might really have nothing to do with Qing Xu, so regardless of Cao Xiu's angry reprimand and obstruction, he stood directly in front of Cao Zhen.

and argued with him.

Cao Xiu couldn't help but turn black when he saw this, and he also rushed over, as if he wanted to forcibly pull away Zang Xuangao....

"That's it!" Just when the two were about to have some dispute, Cao Zhen simply raised his hand to interrupt all their movements.

Looking at Zang Ba, who wrote "unwilling to give up" on his face, Cao Zhen did not blame too much, nor did he directly remove his military power here.

Instead, he took up his pen and drew on the map.

These were several routes of march, including Xu Shu's abandonment of Runan again and an all-out attack on Qichun and Lujiang in Jiangdong.

There is also Zhao Yun and Wenpin advancing by land and water to attack Yuzhang.

Wang Ping, Ma Zhong, and Zhang Wei led their troops directly into the eastern part of Huiji County...

and that Li Yan severed the connection between Wu Jun and Huiji.

There are also Wu Ban and Huang Quan and others who went directly upstream, and once again entered the Huai River into Xuzhou.

These marching routes are directly marked, and now there are all Cao family generals and veterans of Cao Wei in this big tent.

Naturally, everyone won't be incomprehensible, and Cao Zhen doesn't need to explain too much.

At the same time, Cao Zhen also put forward his most important introduction.

"Now there are only two options in front of us, attack Wu County and destroy Sun Quan!

Or withdraw to Huaisi and abandon Jiangdong.

Ben will know what you think, and it doesn't matter if you return to Huaisi, after all, the land of Jiangdong is not a very useful land for us.

And the wealthy families in this Jiangdong land are also different from other places, and it is difficult for us to govern now.

But if you think about it, if we retreat, then Liu Feng will immediately rush over with a large army.

At that time, we were waiting to retreat, and Jiangdong Zhu and He Qi and others would definitely not follow us and leave like this, although Sun Quan did not say much.

But this time they are no different from betrayal!

Even if Sun Quan agreed to their return again, there were a few people who were willing to risk returning to Sun Quan's command.

At this time, as long as Xu Shu gave up Runan, he could attack Jiangdong with all his strength, and under the persecution of various armies, the Jiangdong family could only choose again.

It may even be directly invested in that Liu Xiexiao... The Puppet Emperor's Command!

In this case, wouldn't we have made a wedding dress for that man!

Moreover, once they occupy Jiangdong, they will use the naval army under the hands of Chen Huang Quan to attack Xuzhou, Guangling, Xiapi and other places.

Then the naval army in the hands of He Qi, Zhu and others directly attacked the front of us from the Yangtze River, and under such a flank attack, our morale was unstable.

How to keep this Xuzhou? ”

Cao Zhen's words made Zang Ba open his mouth several times but closed helplessly, he looked at the map in front of him and thought of many words that could be refuted.

But it undoubtedly proves that he is just messing around.

This is a situation that they are very likely, and even certainly will face.

And to break the game... Breaking this situation is not a comfortable thing to do.

Cao Zhen looked at Zang Ba and the others and didn't say anything more before continuing.

"But if we attack Wu County directly, then the situation will be different again!

First of all, we and other armies are all in the land of Jiangdong, and we can completely let out most of Qichun and Lujiang, and then send soldiers and horses to directly hold Poyang, the eastern part of Yuzhang, Danyang, and the middle section of Huiji.

Then send a group of troops and horses to entangle Li Yan, so that even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of this great man wants to send troops, he will definitely not be able to break through our defense line in a short time.

After that, the general could lead the army to directly attack Wu County, and attack Wu County to kill Sun Quan!

If we win this battle, we will almost take the realm of Jiangdong, not to mention, but also protect the heritage of many wealthy families in Jiangdong.

We can have further cooperation with them, and let them help us and others block Liu Feng's soldiers and horses.

and continue to hold Jingzhou in preparation for the future war..."

After Cao Zhen finished speaking, the generals under his command did not refute, but they did not nod, but after a short hesitation, someone asked a question again.

"There is nothing wrong with the general's move, but now we don't have enough food and straw in the army.

If you continue to fight, you can only mobilize from Shouchun and other places.

But now that Xuzhou is in chaos, the betrayal of Huaisi Tuntianke has also caused Huaisi great losses.

If there is no follow-up grain and grass support, we wait.... I'm afraid it won't work out! ”

Faced with this question, Cao Zhen did not hesitate or refute, but looked at everyone and said very seriously.

"If the general is sure that the soldiers under his command will not be in danger of running out of food, then are you willing to continue to help the general?"

Cao Zhen's words made the generals look at each other, they didn't expect that the situation had already reached this point.

Cao Zhen even sold Guanzi.

However, looking at Cao Zhen's rather determined gaze, all the generals still stood up in unison.

"If the general is like this, we will definitely fight to the death!"

At this moment, even Zang Ba shouted so loudly.

If nothing else, he doesn't want to turn his face, and he has no way to turn his face!

Seeing that the generals were finally stabilized by themselves, Cao Zhen directly waved his hand to let them retreat first.

Then he asked Na Zhu and Gu Cheng and He Jing and others to come to see him.

During this time, with the confrontation between Cao and Liu, the situation in the world became more and more turbulent.

Let them, the wealthy families of Jiangdong who have already made a choice early, are also uneasy in their hearts.

In addition, Cao Zhen deliberately left them aside, and refused to let them participate in the deliberations many times, which aggravated the doubts in their hearts.

I'm afraid that one day Cao Zhen will evacuate directly with his soldiers and horses, and then leave them in this Jiangdong land to prevent disasters and avoid disasters for them.

By that time, they will be truly human inside and out.

But today, Cao Zhen didn't tell them this, looking at these people in front of him, Cao Zhen got straight to the point.

"Today .. How about Ben want to make a deal with you, and even the family behind you? ”

"Deal?" Zhu Ju, who is the oldest and most prestigious here, couldn't help but frown after hearing this, "What does the general mean?" ”

"I have long heard that the wealthy people of Jiangdong are deeply rooted in this Jiangdong land, but they have not saved any savings for many years, not to mention that they are even quite poor in this life.

I wonder what's wrong with this message? ”

After Zhu Ju and the others heard this, their brows furrowed even deeper, and they didn't know what Cao Zhen meant by suddenly saying this.

Several of them... It's not a good time!

To say that you are poor is really nonsense.

Because Jiangdong was rarely destroyed by drought and locust plagues, and because the climate was pleasant and the waters were abundant, there was no famine, and there were always displaced people.

It's still a long way from being rich, but it's good compared to other places.

In this case, as a wealthy family in Jiangdong, they should have been rich, and they should even be said to be rich.

But.... Because of Jiangdong's unique military system, Sun Quan was not responsible for the real money and food of the soldiers and horses under their command.

It's their own responsibility.

All of a sudden, those wealthy families who should have been rich have become overstretched.

Just like He Qi's command, one by one the banners are majestic when they look at it, and the sophistication of the armor is a first-class existence in the world.

This kind of person is really rich.

But on the other side, Zhu Huan, who is also a general of Jiangdong, has no more than 10,000 soldiers and horses under his command.

At the end of every month, I have to go to Zhu Yi's brother's house to eat.

It wasn't a tight day anymore, it was simply miserable.

Zhu Ju often worries that with Zhu Huan's method of governing the army, when he dies, whether he has money to bury him is a problem.

At this time, Cao Zhen suddenly took out this matter, and everyone couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, but they didn't dare to follow what he said, so they could only respond vaguely.

After seeing everyone's appearance, Cao Zhen was even more satisfied.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have no intention of breaking the current situation in Jiangdong, so I will not make it difficult for you.

But today I could have made a pact with you.

As long as we can break through Wu County within a month and kill Sun Quan.

Then the people of Danyang, Wu County and half of the land of Huiji will be migrated to Huaisi for a generation.

And after they left, the fields where they were were were ... Naturally, I can't take it away! ”

After Cao Zhen said this, everyone's breathing couldn't help but become a little shorter.

What he meant, this is already hinting at very obviously.

What you can't take away, isn't that theirs?

As for the people taking away, will these lands be barren, will they be left uncultivated?

Isn't that a joke, this mountain is known as a million, how many have been migrated out by other doors?

As long as it continues, it will be five years or three years to fill this hole from Shanyue, and even Shanyue will be their private property at that time.

Their strength and financial resources will directly increase several times!

This kind of interest can be said to make their hearts stir suddenly.

And Cao Zhen watched the changes in everyone's faces, although he felt a little disdainful in his heart, but he still maintained a kind smile and continued to talk to them.

"It's just that this migration is quite costly, and I hope that you can support one or two when the time comes..."

If you get something, you have to pay, it's reasonable!

Everyone nodded slightly, trying to make themselves look more natural and calm, at least not laughing directly!

However, after the deal was confirmed, new doubts reappeared.

The benefits of this future can be said to be certain, but how to deal with the difficulties in front of us?

"General, I heard that the Han army took advantage of our fight to destroy the Huaisi generation.

I don't know the general's military dispatch..."

At this time, He Jing couldn't help but ask, his He family's money was relatively good, and although he was satisfied with this transaction, he was not so shocked.

At this time, he directly asked him about Cao Zhen's affairs in the army, which seemed to be a bit abrupt.

But He Jing wanted to make sure even more that Cao Zhen really had the sincerity to make this deal with them.

Or do you just want to stabilize them and do something else...

When He Jing spoke, Zhu Ju and the others, who were still excited, quickly calmed down, and looked at Cao Zhen in front of them with burning eyes.

I hope to get a satisfactory answer from him.

And Cao Zhen did give them a reasonable answer, but this answer suddenly filled their hearts with horror.

"Ben General has already decided to continue to storm Wu County from tomorrow.

It's just that there is not enough food and grass in our army, and the soldiers have been fighting all year round, and the morale of the subordinates has also dropped a little.

For the ultimate victory, Ben will decide... Everywhere I pass, I will carry out the orders of the Great Wei Army!

Kill those who surround and then surrender!

Starting tomorrow, wherever they pass, there are those who resist stubbornly, break down one city and slaughter another, and set up troops for two days to boost morale!

Ladies and gentlemen, the deal we are waiting for has been decided, and as for this war... I won't bother you. ”

After Cao Zhen finished speaking, he directly stretched out his hand to send off the guests, and the soldiers outside the tent also walked in immediately after hearing these words, and then directly invited several Jiangdong generals who were still in shock out.

When they wanted to see them again, Cao Zhen had stopped seeing them.

At this moment, their hearts were truly frightened.

"Cao Zhen's words just now... Do you hear what he means? ”

"Hmm...."He Jing, who was the first to ask the question, couldn't help but nod with a heavy face, "He's under the temptation and coercion!"

If it is really according to what he said, where he passes, he will break a city and slaughter a city.

Of course, their Cao army can quickly accumulate grain to supply the army, and it can also boost morale.

But if that's the case, once ... What if he is allowed to invade Wu County? ”

When He Jing said this, his face was already gloomy like water.

He could even foresee what would happen next, if such an army continued to plunder all the way.

Sooner or later they will turn into real madmen, executioners.

When Wu County is in a fight, it will be called the end of the eggs under the nest!

If Wu Jun is slaughtered, will he be able to get the He family?

He still remembered that this meeting was still in the hands of Sun Quan.

Slaughtering the city and conniving at it to carve up the resources of Jiangdong Tianlong for profit, this Cao really let them see what is the real madness in a desperate situation.

"At this time, Gu can't be the master, so I'll leave first!"

"Brother Gu, wait... Coming with you below! ”

"My father still has something important to discuss with He, so he will leave first!"

"I...."

Outside Cao Zhen's camp, Zhu Ju and his party quickly parted ways and rushed back in the direction where their respective armies were stationed.

They want to inform the family of these news as soon as possible, and at the same time... Negotiate a solution!

"Kill!"

With a roar of rage, tens of thousands of Cao troops rushed towards a small city in front of them.

Wu County Linshui City is also one of the gateways of Wu County, the city is not big but it is quite strong.

The general defending the city is Sun Quan's current henchman Xie Jing, and he is also one of Lu Xun's lieutenants.

In the land of Jiangdong, it has a bit of a reputation for bravery, and during this time, he repelled the Cao army that came to attack, and defended this small city near the water with his blood.

It's just that today, in the midst of his desperate fighting and roaring, there are more and more Cao troops on the waterfront city wall, and the casualties of the soldiers and horses under his command are becoming more and more heavy.

It was only half an hour before his walls were lost.

"This group of Cao Jun is crazy today! What the hell are they trying to do! ”

Xie Jing had just slashed and killed a Cao Jun when he saw that the three or five Cao Jun were rushing towards him as if they were dying again.

In the midst of a roar, Xie Jing killed several people in a row, but there were more and more wounds on his body, and blood continued to flow out.

made his face more and more pale.

"Withdraw... Withdraw to the city! ”

Just when Xie Jing couldn't hold on and was about to retreat into the city to continue to defend it, suddenly there was a muffled sound and shaking from below.

This was followed by Cao Jun's excited roar.

"The gates are broken! The gates have been breached! ”

"The general has an order, when we wait for the city to be broken, Wu Gou will not surrender yet, in order to deter the enemy, slaughter the city!"

When these two words appeared in Xie Jing's ears, his face changed suddenly, and then he looked behind him.

I found that those wolf-like Cao Jun had rushed in.

The dozens of people led by him had already begun a merciless slaughter, not only their Jiangdong soldiers, but also those panicked people.

They were all cut down to the ground.

For a time, countless cries and howls echoed in this city...

"Cao Zhen!" Xie Jing couldn't help but roar angrily after seeing this scene, looking at all this in front of him with tears in his eyes, and then...

"Kill!"

Hundreds of Cao troops, under the leadership of the general Yang Ji, rushed directly in front of Xie Jing.

Swords and guns were raised, spears pierced, and in the siege of a group of people, Xie Jing, who was already seriously injured, finally fell on the city wall.

At the moment of death, his eyes were fixed on the Linshui City, which was being wantonly slaughtered by Cao Jun.

There was a hint of crimson in his eyes...

"All the soldiers obeyed the order, set up troops for two days, and fought forever!"

With a roar, Cao Zhen gave the order again, and Cao Jun's excited howl represented that their morale had finally reached its peak.

Slaughter the city... Something that is commonplace in this day and age.

The people are a resource, a very important resource.

But when everyone found out that there are Wuhuan, Xianbei, and Qiangqi in this world, the Huns can be educated and obedient, there are Ba Yan barbarians, and there are Shanyue who can cultivate for them.

It turns out that the people are not so important!

The superiors have never needed a group of self-righteous people, and they have never had these dispensable existences in their eyes.

"Great Wei, long live!"

Under the guidance of those who have a heart, a roar with deep excitement erupted from the mouths of these Cao Jun.

In the midst of "Da Wei" and "Your Majesty", they completely fell into madness.

"General!"

Just when Cao Jun was frantically slaughtering and wantonly insulting the people of Wu County, the Hui Ji Yu and Wu County Zhu Zhu finally rushed back.

The two teamed up to find Cao Zhen, hoping that he would be able to reclaim his life.

Looking at the two who kept persuading him, Cao Zhen just smiled faintly.

"Two... Slaughtered the small city near the water, isn't the land here all yours?

With the skills of the two of them, it only takes more than a year to move from the mountains to the city again.

At that time, this waterfront city will still be full of people, and crops can still grow in this field.

And you can also get more food and money, so why not? ”

Cao Zhen's words made both of them breathe, looking at Cao Zhen with a serious face, they didn't dare to imagine that this kind of words came out of Cao Zhen's mouth.

"General, the people of Wu County are innocent!" Yu Xuan understood at this time that it was pointless for him to say anything more, "I'll wait... Willing to persuade the people of Wu County to surrender.

Please Stop, General! ”

Looking at Yu Fu and Zhu Ju, who finally decided to help, Cao Zhen only sneered this time.

"Then it's troublesome for the two of you to act earlier before the next battle.

The Great Wei military order, those who surround and surrender, kill them! ”

With Cao Zhen's bland and cold order, this small waterfront city finally turned into a purgatory on earth.

And the deterrent power of slaughtering the city is really not comparable to ordinary things.

This time, not only did He Qi, Zhu Ju and others, who had been standing by all the soldiers and horses join in, freeing the power in Cao Jun's hands.

What's more, Yu Chuan and others continue to persuade those non-commissioned officers who are still resisting.

Let them let it go now!

Sun Tai, the general stationed in Wucheng, could not bear the slaughter of the people of Wucheng.

Before the arrival of Cao Jun, he took the initiative to lead his troops to rush away, and was annihilated by Cao Zhen in the field battle, and Sun Tai was beheaded by Cao Zhen.

Thousands of Wu troops were slaughtered.

Wucheng stayed behind, and Sun Shao, a native of Beihai, Qingzhou, was old and frail, and he didn't want to suffer the name of betrayal when he was dying.

Seeing that Cao's army was coming, he cut himself into the mansion with a miserable smile on his face.

After that, Wucheng County, under the leadership of other officials and Yu Tuo, surrendered to Cao Zhen, and Cao Zhen really did nothing to the people of Wucheng.

just went to the mansions of Sun Tai and Sun Shao and slaughtered everyone in their mansions to deter others.

After that, Cao Zhen's soldiers divided the road and attacked Sun An, Sun Miao's uncle and nephew in Haichang all the way.

Half a month later, Sun An and others refused to surrender, and were broken open by Cao Zhen's general Tian Xu, who slaughtered the city for two days!

The other soldier and horse was led by Lu Zhao as the vanguard to directly attack Yangxian and other places.

The defender Wu Fen was frightened and finally surrendered and was spared death.

There are young generals in the city, and Zhou Zun, a man in the dusk, angrily reprimanded Wu Fen for being greedy for life and afraid of death, and wanted to defend the city and fight Cao Zhen to the death.

In the end, Cao Zhen was defeated and captured, and forced the people of Yangxian to eat his flesh alive to live, otherwise they would be killed!

After that, Cao Zhen once again divided his troops to conquer Biling, Yunyang, Jurong and other places, Haiyan, Jiaxing and other cities, and was also frightened by Cao's army to kill, and then surrendered to Cao Zhen.

Lu Xun, who was stationed on the defense line of Taihu Lake, was forced to have no way out by this crazy killing, and had to retreat into Wu County to defend the city.

Sun Quan, who got all the battle reports at the same time, was also stunned on the spot.

Looking at the killings in the battle report, he knew that his end had finally arrived....

"Someone... Go and invite Lu Xun and Zhang Zhao..."

"Go and invite the two generals, Ding Feng and Zhong Limu."

"Go.... Find Sun Xi and Sun He! ”

"Bo Yan... Zhang Gong..."Sun Quan looked at Lu Xun and Zhang Zhao, who rushed over first, and there was a trace of discomfort and pain in his eyes that could not be suppressed, "The good situation ended up like this... How unfair and unfair it is to God!

Hate me to death..... Hate! ”

Sun Quan looked at Lu Xun in front of him, looked at Zhang Zhao in front of him, and thought of Zhou Yu, Lu Su and Lu Meng who had left him.

thought of Ling Cao, Chen Wu, and Dong Xian, who had left successively in those years.

These people were all great talents in their Jiangdong back then, heroes!

I originally wanted to take over the land of Jiangdong, work hard to attack Huaisi, and Liu Xuande, and even the Han Emperor Liu Xie, together with the Cao family, and fight the Central Plains!

Who knew that Liu Xuande was advancing all the way, but he was repeatedly frustrated in Huaisi.

Sun Quan hates! I hate why I can't break through Huaisi, and I hate why Jiangdong is unfavorable in land warfare!

Huaisi is not connected, Sun Quan wants to hold one side, wants to maintain the status quo, at least to settle safely, he wants to seize Jiaozhou, occupy Jingzhou, and entrench in Jiangnan!

Rely on the Yangtze River natural insurance and Cao's to fight again!

In the battle of Jingzhou, the elite of Jiangdong was almost lost, and countless heroes went forward to succeed each other, but in the end, it was a dangerous situation.

Sun Quan hates... Hate why Zhuge Kongming and Guan Yunchang were able to calculate so much that his plan completely failed in the land of Jingzhou!

Advance cannot advance, retreat cannot retreat, and the good situation finally ended up like this.

Sun Quan didn't understand which step he had done wrong, could it be... Shouldn't I have fought to the death back then?

"If Lone had surrendered early, wouldn't we have to face such a situation?"

Sun Quan's words with deep sadness made Lu Xun and Zhang Zhao silent, and the two of them looked at Sun Quan in front of them.

Looking at the once high-spirited lord of Jiangdong, who now has become hunched over, Zhang Zhao and Lu Xun couldn't help but sigh.

There were just three people and one sigh after another, but no one continued to speak.

Knowing that the frail monk Sun He and the very young Sun He came here, Sun Quan became firm again.

"Wu Jun's situation, I think you already know about it, right?"

Sun Quan's words made Ding Feng and Zhong Limu's faces become very unkind.

Some time ago, although the two sides fought very fiercely, the children of people such as Chen Biao and Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai in Jiangdong have gradually lost their lives.

Cao Zhen also lost a lot of soldiers and generals.

But the two sides can barely hold on.

But now, after Cao Zhen began the slaughter, not only did the city fall one after another, but even many generals under Sun Quan chose to retreat.

And as the intimate person in power around Sun Quan, the lord of Jiangdong.

Jiangdong important minister Gu Yong, Jiangdong general Quan Zong, and even some veterans who Sun Quan once trusted incomparably, have all chosen to "retire" at this time.

They didn't want to continue to stand with Sun Quan and gather all the soldiers and horses they could control.

He has not surrendered yet, and he has not opened the city gates, perhaps except for the fear of Zhu Huan, the madman, Zhu Ran and others.

It's more about keeping a little bit of love with Sun Quan.

However, everyone knows that if they continue, they will definitely make their own choice when Cao Junbing comes to the city.

Seeing that everyone fell silent again, Sun Quan only barely showed a bitter smile that was not very good-looking.

"That's it... Lu Xun obeyed the order! ”

Thirty-one years of the Great Han Dynasty.... Cao Zhen, the famous general of the Cao family, marched all the way to attack Wu County, and the successive victories made Wu County frightened.

Cao Xiu led troops to garrison Qiantang and Yongxing and other places to contain the Han general Li Yan, who was blocked by them on the way back, but refused to surrender and could only flee.

It can be said that after Liu Feng got the news, he immediately asked Zhao Yun, Wen Ping, Wang Ping, Zhang Wei and others to send troops, wanting to drag Cao Zhen.

But first, the time was too short, and secondly, Cao Ren's commander Yu Ban directly stopped the line from Peng Ze to Geyang.

No matter how Zhao Yun and Wen Ping rushed to kill, they still couldn't break through the past.

On the other side, Wang Ping, Zhang Wei and others were He Qi, who was killed by the diversion route, and Sun Wei and his two Sun Sui, who had just surrendered to the Cao family, and Sun Chao stopped in Jieyang and Nanfeng.

The two sides went back and forth, fighting more than 40 times in half a month, and the losses on both sides were very heavy between the almost non-stop attacks and attacks.

But in the end, Liu Feng gave up because of the lack of troops, and let the army continue to hold on to the current territory, waiting for the order of the prime minister or his father.

By the way, he prepared the ninth confession, and then asked people to find their own hands left in the palace, and found a way to put away all the bamboo whips and rattans in the palace, and the wooden sticks with thorns could not be kept....

Of the three battlefields, only Liu Feng, the prince of the Han Dynasty, was the future emperor of the Han Dynasty, and in the end, even his own vanguard commander and the first army division were lost.

Now seeing that Cao Jun is about to destroy Sun Quan, but he can't do anything.

He could already predict how his father would beat him up when he returned.

In a nutshell.... Liu Feng, the prince of the Han Dynasty.... I feel like I'm going to finish!

"Hey... Why don't you take advantage of the fact that your father's people didn't come, and flee to Jiaozhou to hide? ”

The battle between Cao and Liu stopped again, announcing that Sun Quan's last life-saving straw was also broken.

With Cao Zhen's advance, Sun Quan directly ordered Lu Xun to attack with a large army.

This army includes most of the people who have now returned to Wu County, Gu Yong, Quan Zong, Zhang Wen, and a large number of clansmen and some generals and families who have surrendered.

This is the means that Sun Quan has always held, and the means to let He Qi, Zhu and others throw a rat trap.

And now, Sun Quan gave them away, and directly asked Lu Xun to take them towards Qiantang.

As for Lu Xun himself, he was personally stationed in Wu County, and he was accompanied by a few of his henchmen.

Zhu Huan, the madman of the Zhu family in Wu County, the adopted son of Zhu Zhi, and Shi Ran of the Shi family.

The one who defended the city was the general who could have left, but gave up under the persuasion of his sister.

In addition, no one in Jiangdong was by Sun Quan's side.

"Sun Zhongmou!" Cao Zhen personally led his troops to besiege Wu County, looking at the big banner with the word "Wu", and Sun Quan, who was wearing gold armor and standing proudly at the head of the city with a sword in his hand.

For the first time, he broke his own rules.

"Your Majesty of my family has an order, as long as you are willing to surrender, the Sun family... Avoid death! ”

"Hum~"

Cao Zhen's angry shouts reached Sun Quan's ears, and the cold arrow shot by Zhu Huan beside Sun Quan also announced their attitude.

"Cao thief, come on!"

"Jiangdong rats, so ignorant of righteousness, kill!"

In the seventh year of Zhangwu of the Han Dynasty, at the end of the autumn of the eighth year of Cao Wei and Huang Chu, Cao Zhenqin led a large army to attack Wu County, Jiangdong.

The two sides fought fiercely in Wu County for 19 days, Zhu Ran and Zhu Huan were killed one after another, and Cao Zhen lost 46 generals.

Cao Zhen's second son Cao Xi, his third son Cao Xun, his nephew Cao Wenshu, and the general Xiahou Ling and others died one after another.

Cao Zhen eventually climbed the city wall of Wu County in person, took the city wall, and broke open the city gate.

General Sun Quan fought in the streets of the city for three days, and was finally chopped into pulp with a knife.

In order not to be insulted by Cao Jun, Sun Quan's concubine step trainer killed himself in front of Sun Quan.

Sun Quan finally set fire to his Marquis Wu's mansion, a mansion comparable to a palace.

Then he died with the hundreds of Cao troops who rushed in.

And Cao Zhen ordered it directly.

"Slaughter the people of Wu County, kill the people of the Sun family, all the female dependents of the family, Sun Quan's concubines, daughters...

Reward all the lieutenants and soldiers of the army! ”

Sun Quan's son-in-law, Zhou Yu's son Zhou Xun, saw Cao Jun's brutality and finally decided to resist and was beheaded by Cao Jun.

His wife Sun Luban and Zhou Yu's second son Zhou Yin led the crowd to surrender in an attempt to avoid death.

Zhou Yu's nephew Zhou Jun angrily reprimanded him, and was finally ordered by Cao Zhen to divide the corpses of the five horses.

Zhou Yu's daughter, Sun Deng's concubine Zhou Che killed herself in front of Sun Deng's tomb...

Lü Meng's son Lü Ba originally wanted to surrender, but the red-eyed Cao Jun who was killed directly broke open the door of the mansion, and all the wealth of his family was plundered by him.

Most of the relatives in the family were also slaughtered, and at the last moment, I don't know if I regretted my decision to refuse Sun Quan to let him flee with Lu Xun.

And just after Wu County was breached, Lu Xun finally rushed into the Qiantang with Sun Wei, Sun He, Sun Huan and others.

seized Qiantang at night, and transferred Sun He and others to Huiji to hide.

He was accompanied by two generals, Ding Feng and Zhong Limu, as well as Sun Huan, the only fierce general of the Sun family...

It's a pity that Sun Wei, who is older and more talented, unfortunately became seriously ill during the transfer, and died halfway before he could really avoid the disaster.

And Lu Xun, who had done all this, directly contacted Zhu Ju, He Qi and others, and he wanted to talk to Cao Zhen...

Use these people in his hands, use his position in the Jiangdong Army, and have a good talk with Cao Zhen!

"Today, Xun is willing to serve the Cao family, but I hope the Cao family can make a guarantee for Xun!"

Lu Xun looked at Zhu Ju in front of him and knew that this guy under the banner of "visiting friends" was actually the messenger sent by Cao Zhen to test him.

It's all at this time, and it's still doing such a thing, Lu Xun doesn't know what to say when he looks at Zhu Ju in front of him.

And Zhu Ju looked at Lu Xun, who had spoken up, and his face froze, and then he smiled slightly and sat directly in front of him.

and took out Cao Zhen's handwritten letter.

"It's... It's General Cao Zhen's handwritten letter!

Now His Majesty the Great Wei has officially named General Cao Ren as the Great Sima, Cao Xiu as the General of Zhengnan, and Cao Zhen as the General of Zhennan, and will do his best to defend it..."

"What do these things have to do with Lu!" Lu Xun didn't wait for Zhu Ju to finish speaking, he directly pushed the letter back in front of him, and unceremoniously interrupted Zhu Ju's words.

At this moment, the smile on Zhu Ju's face couldn't help but stiffen a little, and his face sank directly when he looked at Lu Xun in front of him.

"Bo Yan, you have to understand that this time is different from the past!

If you continue to be stubborn like this, I'm afraid you won't end well..."

"You can't say this, Lu!" Lu Xun looked at Zhu Ju and snorted coldly, "Let's not say that you don't have your brother's ability for the time being."

Even if there is!

Lu is not a lecturer now, don't forget that your clansmen are still in Lu's hands.

It's a big deal to let that Cao Zhen attack, and finally break the city... Lu waited for him, Cao Zhen slaughtered Qiantang!

Anyway, he's not missing this half-city. ”

"You!" Zhu Ju looked at Lu Xun with such an arrogant appearance, no matter how humble and good his temper was, he couldn't help but want to shoot the case now.

Looking at the Zhu Zhi with a gloomy face, Lu Xun was not afraid at this time, and even directly asked the young people around him to "send" the Zhu Ju.

When Zhu Ju saw this young man who came out, his face suddenly changed.

"Lu Xun, what the hell do you want to do!"

"Nothing... Find a thorn history for Jiangdong and give the Lu family... Find a backer! ”

With Lu Xun's words, Zhu Ju was pushed and sent out of the small county of Qiantang, and then left with a gloomy face.

On the way, his heart couldn't help but curse constantly.

"Cao Zhen threatens my family members at every turn, and this Lu Xun also threatens his family members at every turn.

My clansmen of Koto... Isn't that worthless? ”

Zhu Ji thought of the words that Lu Xun had said to him just now, and he was depressed and indignant in his heart.

Lu Xun's meaning is the same as Cao Zhen's original, if he doesn't help him in this matter, it will be a big deal in the end.

As for Cao Zhen's letters...

Lu Xun knows very well that no matter how much credit Cao Zhen has in this battle, Cao Ren is still alive, then he will definitely not be able to stand above Cao Ren!

Therefore, it is not enough to just guarantee that Cao Zhen!

On the other side, in the small city of Qiantang, the young man who took Zhu Yi out with him walked to Lu Xun's side again.

"That Zhu Ju has already left, but... He didn't look good.

And now that Cao Zhen has occupied the land of Jiangdong, I am just a lone army, how can I talk to him? ”

"Don't worry, he'll talk to me later!" Lu Xun just said lightly, "Things have come to this point."

Cao Zhen doesn't really want Jiangdong to never turn over... He'll talk about it! ”

When Lu Xun said this, he seemed to be very tired, and even when he saw the confusion on the other party's face, he couldn't explain too much.

Just have the walls patrolled, and then send scouts to patrol the surroundings and inside the city.

One is to prevent some people in the city from rioting, and the other is to be careful of being cut off by him... It should be said that Cao Xiu, who was attacked by them, will turn over and come back to fight with them.

The most important thing is that the news is that Cao Zhen and Cao Ren sneak attacked.

After arranging these, Lu Xun retreated to his mansion and began to deal with the things that seemed to never be done.

Lu Xun didn't say much here, but Cao Zhen was not a stupid person.

After hearing Lu Xun's thoughts, he immediately asked people to quickly turn back to Luoyang and go to the court to ask for a reward and guarantee for Lu Xun.

In the face of Cao Zhen's attitude, of course, the generals are a little unwilling!

Especially Zang Ba, who was almost slowly elevated, seeing that this battle was over, he suffered a lot of losses as the winner, and several of his generals were taken away by Cao Zhen.

In the end, I was like a lonely person.

And Lu Xun, the guy who was beaten by them and had nowhere to go, still had the face to negotiate terms with them!

Cao Zhen even agreed!

This made Zang Ba feel as uncomfortable as he wanted.

If it's uncomfortable, you can't just watch it!

"General, the last general asks for an order, lead the troops to level the small city of Qiantang, and bring the head of Lu Xun to the general!

As for the people in his hands..."

"You don't have to!" Cao Zhen didn't wait for Zang Ba to finish speaking, and directly interrupted his words, "This matter will have its own plan.

And that Lu Xun didn't rely on more than just the generals' clansmen.

Sun quan... In order to keep a little incense for himself, he really dares to do anything.

Hum! ”

With a cold snort, Cao Zhen directly settled the matter.

On the one hand, it stabilized the stability of Wu County and other places, and on the other hand, it began to move the people, and then arranged for soldiers and horses to return to the army to help Cao Ren.

Let's see if we can drive Liu Feng and the others out of Chaisang directly and blast them back to Jingzhou.

At the same time, He Qi's navy was dispatched to enter the Huai River, blocking the Huai River valley one step first, and preventing Wu Ban and others from casually entering and exiting the Huai River.

It looks like the first line of Huaisi and the backyard of his Xu Shu's home!

At the same time, they ignored Zhu Ju, Yu Zhuan, He Jing and others in Wu County and even more places to divide the land and occupy all kinds of resources and displaced people.

At the same time, they exchanged it for enough food for their own army.

Finally, he wrote a war report to the imperial court and formally asked for official rewards for these people.

After everything was sat down, by the time the reward came to Koto, it was already the end of the year.

And at this time, the news of Cao Ang also appeared, this is the news and orders that Cao Zhen has been waiting for....

"With Lu Xun as the general of Pingnan, he will supervise the important affairs of the army and politics, and purge the Han generals Li Yan and Sun Quan, the remnants of Ding Feng and others."

"Take Sun Shao as the history of Yangzhou Thorn, take Gu Yong as Yangzhou Don't drive, take Yu Chuan as the Taishou of Wu County, take Zhang Wen as the county guard of Huiji, and the main book of Yangzhou..."

"Recruit Cao Xiu to continue to garrison Huaisi, Cao Zhen to garrison Hebei, and leave Sima Cao Ren to garrison Jiangdong!"

The battlefield in Koto has quickly calmed down.

A large number of Cao troops began to evacuate with a large number of people, and Cao Zhen hurried to Luoyang first.

This time, he first wanted to tell Cao Ang about many things about himself, and secondly, to see Cao Ang and the others.

It is said that Cao Ang's body was extremely weak during this time, and although Cao Ang had a wife early, he still has no son.

For this reason, Cao Pi wanted to give a son to his eldest brother Cao Ang, but was ruthlessly refused.

After all, Cao Ang's current status is a little too special.

However, just in case, he still ordered Cao Pi to handle government affairs instead of him, and he even brought Cao Pi's eldest son Cao Rong with him.

And this time, Cao Zhen came back and wanted to see what the other party meant.

After a conversation, Cao Ei's performance was also good, at least for Cao Zhen, he couldn't find Cao Ei's problem.

Even in dealing with some problems, he did a better job than his father.

The only thing that made Cao Zhen feel a little worried was his somewhat irrepressible wildness.

Or rather, I don't know if it's because of many reasons in the process of growing up....

After Cao Rong got such a position, although he was still restrained, in Cao Zhen's eyes, he already had some uncontrollable desire to indulge.

It's as if he can't hold back a bit, or that he thinks he's succeeded...

As for why there was such an idea, it was because when Cao Zhen returned to Luoyang at this time, it was also because Cao Ang wanted to transfer him from Jiangdong to Hebei to prevent Zhuge Kongming.

First, this Zhuge Kongming is indeed not easy to deal with, and secondly, it is also because the overall situation of Jiangdong has now been decided.

There's really no need to keep tossing... At least there is no need for this, Cao Zhen, Cao Ren, Cao Xiu and others are all here.

Therefore, the Chang'an Han is now their most important enemy....

Cao Zhen already had his own ideas about this kind of thing, but the same Cao Rong actually talked to Cao Zhen at this time.

And he said a lot of things that shouldn't be said.....

"Before the general went to Hebei, I didn't know what I needed to explain to Lonely.... Boy?

Now that the kid is in Luoyang, he will definitely give his full support! ”

Before Cao Zhen left, when Cao Ei and Cao Zhen met, Cao Ei also specially withdrew everyone.

It's just that Cao Zhen didn't say much about Cao Rong's inquiry this time.

Except for some military affairs, it is to let Cao Ei be careful of some people...

"Sima Zhongda is available, but not very useful!

Now that he has taken charge of the military power, he has quickly gained a foothold in Yuzhou, and he has already united with various wealthy clans in the Central Plains.

Although the last general does not dare to say that he has a disobedient heart, he likes power, but he has a lot of means!

When the old Wei King Meng Degong was alive, he once said that this person looked at the wolf and looked at the wolf, and he was afraid that he was not a good person..."

Obviously, Cao Zhen, like Cao Ang and Cao Pi and others, seems to have a natural sense of Sima Yi.... Collide?

It is a kind of right that can be used as a general with confidence, but it is like suppressing him all the time.

And after Cao Ei heard Cao Zhen's words again, he also nodded slightly.

Although he is still young, Cao Ei also came to this conclusion after sorting out all the things about Cao Wei during this time.

As the current rulers with foreign surnames, Sima Yi and Chen Qun can be regarded as the best.

But Chen Qun doesn't give people this feeling, he is selfish but he doesn't put so much pressure on them.

This is a feeling that Cao Ei himself can't explain.

"Uncle, don't worry, boy..."

"But I think Your Majesty knows about this, and the end will be retired!"

At this time, Cao Zhen directly interrupted the other party, and then after finishing speaking, he bowed directly and saluted, and then turned around and left directly under Cao Rong's gaze.

On the same day, he led the troops to the land of Hebei to supervise the military affairs of Hebei.

officially became an important general in the duel against Zhuge Liang.

Also in this year, Liu Xie also ushered in the biggest turning point in his life.

Since then, the Han Dynasty has officially switched from defense to offense, and the situation in the world has also changed from the beginning of the division of the heroes, step by step to the current two heroes.

The unification of the world is already imminent.
