When Zhuge Liang received that Cao Wuzheng was in Cao Jun's Wulin camp, it was already afternoon.

The battle of Chibi was fought from dawn, and by now, all the troops were tired, but after a few strategists discussed, they still decided to pull back the right-wing army that had gone out dozens of miles before and divide it into two parts, one part of which was to rescue the left-wing army trapped at the breach on the north bank of the Yangtze River.

If it weren't for Cao Wu's retrograde collision, the Left Wing Army would have been lucky to survive a third, but now, less than a tenth of them died.

The Wuya big ship only blocked the upper edge of the embankment at the breach, and the river water below was still pouring continuously, limited by technical conditions, Zhuge Liang worked hard for a long time, but failed to block the embankment at the breach.

However, the Left Wing Army has resumed its operations and does not have to be subjected to the impact of the water at the breach.

The other part of the Right Wing Army returned to the Cao army camp and transported grain, grass, tents and other items to the other side of Wulin, where the Jiangdong Army had already leveled the land in Chibi and was suitable for camping.

In this way, Cao Cao and others were first sent to the Chibi camp on the south bank, and they were no longer bothered by the floods in Jiangbei.

Lu Meng and Huang Gai left in a hurry, and the Chibi camp was basically not destroyed, and was picked up by Cao Jun.

Cao Cao surrounded a big man, stood at the mouth of the Chibi camp, looked back at the surging river, and felt a lot.

Cao Wu supported him beside him, and said worriedly: "Brother, go into the camp to rest, Ah Shi said that you can't see the wind." ”

Cao Cao pointed to the Yangtze River and said: "It's okay, Gu wants to see the Yangtze River again, and Gu has finally arrived at the south bank of the Yangtze River." ”

Cao Wu was a little stunned.

Yes, Cao Cao has finally arrived on the south bank.

In the history he experienced, a fire in Chibi not only burned the warship, but also burned the foundation of the north, and then Cao Cao Siyue Chaohu failed, and never went to the south.

When the world was unified, it was 70 years later, and things were not people.

And now, since Cao Cao came in along the east of the river, on the third-line battlefield, tens of thousands of dead, and the drowned have not yet been counted.

However, the fierce battle of Chibi ended with Zhou Yu escaping, but this big battle was far from over.

Cao Cao's pace of unifying the world is not over.

As soon as Cao Wuyi came, Cao Cao's illness seemed to be completely cured, and his pride recovered, he drew his sword, pointed his sword to the east and said: "Lonely didn't listen to Xiao Wu, he hurriedly sent troops, and finally came to this disaster." Today, I listened to Xiao Wu and rescued Jiang Xia. When the lonely comes again, he will take Jiangdong! ”

Cao Chun and the other generals were solemn, and then said: "Jiangdong must be taken!" ”

Cao Cao praised Cao Wu again in front of the generals, and all the generals also looked at Cao Wu, but Cao Wu didn't realize it.

He secretly praised in his heart, Cao Cao is such a person, he has suffered countless setbacks, but he can get back on his feet countless times, and the defeat of the army at one time and one place cannot kill his ambition.

Cao Zhi behind him glanced at Cao Wu who was holding Cao Cao jealously, and said with burning eyes: "Father, since we have arrived on the south bank, why not directly attack Wuchang, Chaisang and other places on the south bank, it is better than wasting time to rescue the people!" ”

His opinion was different from Yang Xiu's, Yang Xiu thought that he should sit back and wait for the flood to recede, or he should be in charge, but Cao Zhi felt that he should be allowed to lead his troops to attack and take the enemy by surprise, so that Cao Wuyi could be suppressed.

Cao Cao glanced back at him, among the sons under his knees, Cao Cao's favorite was the brilliant Cao Chong, and the second favorite was the brilliant Cao Zhi.

However, today he found out that this son lacked experience after all, and he talked a lot on paper, and he became a boastful person.

Cao Zhi was a little embarrassed when he saw everyone looking at him, but he didn't know where he said something wrong.

Yang Xiu gently pulled his sleeve and whispered: "The flood on the north bank, the grain and grass can't be transported, Sun Ben Xiao'er is stationed in Chaisang, if it can't be surrounded, our army is in danger." ”

Cao Zhi suddenly realized, and still did not give up and said: "However, it is not appropriate for my uncle to rescue Jiangbei after all." ”

These people, including Cao Cao, don't seem to take human life seriously, in their eyes, the people are just resources, which is completely different from Cao Wu's mentality.

The background of the times is different, Cao Wu will not fight with them, but he will not be assimilated by them.

In any case, in his eyes, rescuing the people is far more important than attacking Nanchang.

So Cao Wu didn't bother to pay attention to Cao Zhi at all.

Cao Wu helped Cao Cao to walk towards the Chibi camp, and pointed to the gate and said, "Speaking of the gate of the Chibi camp, I have an interesting story. ”

Cao Zhi's face was swollen and red, he had prepared a stomach full of truth, trying to refute Cao Wu, but he didn't expect that Cao Wu would ignore him.

And his father, who usually loves him, was also led by Cao Wu's nose and didn't care about himself.

He was angry, pampered and arrogant, thinking that his father would not blame himself, he walked a few steps, wanting to hold Cao Wu to debate, but heard Cao Wudao: "On the third day, there are still two military heads hanging at the door, Jiangdong Army has seen no surprise, that Zhou Yu's face is purple, it turns out that he is afraid of being killed, and when he sleeps at night, he has to wrap his neck with three layers of iron armor, and he can't breathe." ”

is talking about the story of Cao Asan, a heroine of Beifu, who killed Jiangdong officers for several days and nights, and now she is adding fuel and vinegar to tell it, and the two children who followed next to him, Cao Chong and Deng Ai, were stunned.

Cao Cao knew that he was telling jokes to amuse himself, but he still couldn't help laughing and said, "Your mouth can really defeat more than a million male soldiers!" It seems that the next time I go on an expedition, I will only take you alone, and I will be able to set foot in Jiangdong. ”

When he was with Cao Wu, he didn't even call himself "lonely".

Cao Wuhe laughed, held Cao Cao's arm and said, "I still haven't told a story about scolding Jiangdong rats!" ”

Cao Cao's eyes lit up: "Let's hear it!" ”

Although the difference between the two of them is more than 20 years old, they are brothers who see the truth, talking and laughing in the enemy camp, and not talking about half of the military. Cao Cao's head wind is good, and the epidemic is good, and he has improved a lot.

Cao Cao and Cao Wu talked, and Cao Zhi looked out of place in the back. Don't talk about debates, you can't even interject a word.

Thinking that since going south, the impression in his father's heart has been completely destroyed, not to mention, it is clear that he is the most favored child, and the waste brother can't compete with him at all, but he has been suppressed by Cao Wu in all aspects, even the best poetry, he has never fought against Cao Wu.

There was a raging anger in my heart, and I wanted to swallow this uncle alive.

As smart as Yang Xiu, he had already seen the clue and pulled him a few times before persuading him to suppress his anger.

The two looked at each other resentfully, they were both people who were suppressed by Cao Wu, and at the moment they only wanted to boast about Cao Wu, who saved people from Haikou.

They didn't know that Cao Wu was not worried about the rescue at all, he had already met Zhuge Liang just now, and he also recommended Huang Chengyan to Zhuge Liang.

Huang Chengyan never dreamed that the person he saved turned out to be a person with such power, he was a hermit and did not admire power, but he was glad that Cao Wu trusted him and allowed him to participate in the dispatch of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, which was enough to save many lives.

Both are Jingxiang hermits, Zhuge Liang and Huang Chengyan have been friends for a long time, although Huang Chengyan did not become Zhuge Liang's father-in-law in this life, but he only talked a few words, and he introduced Zhuge Liang as a confidant.

The proposal to rescue the people of Jiangxia coincides with Zhuge Liang, and the two make suggestions and discuss the route together, so there is no need for Cao to have nothing to do.

Cao Wu shook his hands and was not suspicious of employing people, so he directly handed over the matter to the two of them, and he accompanied his brother Cao Mengde to chat and sit in the Chinese army.

At this moment, the rescue against Jiangxia has begun.

Zhuge Liang and Huang Chengyan first sent scouts to take a fast boat to visit the disaster situation in various places, and then formulated rescue steps and rescued them in phases and batches.

Thanks to Huang Chengyan's familiarity with the terrain, the first rescue team sent to Shiyang has set off.

……

More than ten miles west of Shiyang City, Wujia Village.

When the flood came, the villagers had just woken up not long ago, a few people were lucky, just at a high place, a few people were alert, climbed to a high place, except for these few dozen people, the whole village of more than 100 people, were swept away by the flood.

Wu Li hugged his five-year-old daughter and stood on a tree, his eyes were swollen with crying, but he was helpless in the face of the rising water potential.

She saw Uncle Li next door, who was standing on the thatched hut, but the thatched hut was blistered and collapsed, and such a big person fell into the water, and it didn't take long for him to disappear.

The five-year-old daughter poked Wu Li's arm and cried: "Mother, I'm hungry ......"

Wu Li sighed, but failed to give a little food to the child.

Jiangxia Taishou Huang Zu has been fighting with Jiangdong thieves for more than ten years, and Jiangxia has been suffering for more than ten years, and there is no surplus food at home.

After Huang Taishou died, Liu Taishou came, saying that he was the son of the state pastor, and it was easy to live a stable life for a few days, but the war came again.

More than 20 days ago, the newly appointed Jiangxia Taishou, surnamed Wen, came over from here and asked them for a lot of food, saying that they would return it after the war.

Wu Li still doesn't know, it is all the rhetoric of the officials and old men, how can the food taken away, just like the human head taken away, be returned.

For more than ten days, a larger army passed by Wujia Village, and although they did not borrow food, they were so frightened that everyone took the initiative to hand over a lot.

The remaining surplus grain, which has just passed the bottom of the tank, can be eaten sparsely to survive until next spring.

But God didn't give me a way to live, and there was still a lot of water in winter.

Now that the water is flooding, where can you find a bite to eat?

Wu Li looked at the sun gradually setting westward, and his heart was already cold.

She shuddered and hugged the child tightly, her man went to war, and he died on which hill, the next-door neighbor died, and those in the village who were still alive were also waiting to die on the roofs and trees.

She didn't want to die, she just wanted to live.

But in this world, it is so difficult to survive just by luck.

Their shabby clothes can't withstand the cold winter nights outside, and maybe tomorrow morning, she and her children will finally die, and they will no longer suffer from cold and hunger.

Her expression was also in a trance.

In a trance, she seemed to see the light, and she was the messenger of the soul, and she remembered that the poor people who had no one to care about their mothers came to collect their souls?
