Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

crazy.

Cao Cao thought Jingzhou.

No!

It was Cao Cao who thought Guan Lin was mad! Otherwise, how could he send an envoy to make such an unbelievable request.

Cede the south of Xudu City?

Attack the land of Soochow in Huainan!

Why should he?

The current situation? Why is he so arrogant? So arrogant?

Speaking of which, in this type of negotiation to cede territory and compromise, one party often falls into great passivity, or one party is taken advantage of by the other party and seizes the key point!

Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible!

Fortunately, it was Guan Lin. If it had been anyone else, Cao Cao would not have been so nervous, and would have even thought he was extremely crazy, but Guan Lin... couldn't help but make him think too much, and it also made Cao Cao's heart palpitate!

——What kind of medicine is this kid selling in his gourd? 』

Cheng Yu looked at Cao Cao's green and purple cheeks. He couldn't help but sigh softly, raised his head... and looked up at the clear blue sky through the window.

Just now, he was ordered by Cao Cao to receive an envoy from Jingzhou. When the envoy reported that his family was Langya Zhuge Ke, Cheng Yu was still surprised...

Because Cheng Yu knew that now... Soochow Wu also sent envoys to Xudu to discuss matters. It happened that the person sent was Zhuge Jin of Langya. He was in Xudu, and what he was discussing was... Wei and Wu's attack on Jingzhou.

Who would have thought that by coincidence... the person sent by Jingzhou was actually Zhuge Jin's son, Zhuge Ke.

Of course, this is just a small episode.

Cheng Yu was instructed by Cao Cao to take the opportunity to explore the reality of Jingzhou.

Therefore, Cheng Yu treated Zhuge Ke with courtesy...

Zhuge Ke, on the other hand, got straight to the point and didn't hide anything: I came here under orders to negotiate with the King of Wei and let the King of Wei cede the south of Xu Capital City to Jingzhou. In addition, I sent troops to wipe out the Soochow forces in Huainan——

this…

Speaking of which, Cheng Yu is also a very old man.

When he heard that Zhuge Ke, the envoy from Jingzhou, stated such conditions, Cheng Yu felt like he was hearing hallucinations, and even...for a short time, he was stunned and confused!

What did Envoy Zhuge just say? My eyes are dim and my ears are not working properly. I would like to ask you again!

With doubts, Cheng Yu continued to ask.

However, Zhuge Ke's answer was exactly the same as the first time.

They still asked Cao Cao to cede the south of Xudu, and they still asked Cao Cao to send troops to destroy Soochow in Huainan. As for why? He didn't say anything, Cheng Yu only thought it was funny... let alone asked!

In fact, in Cheng Yu's view, Cao Cao would never agree to such a request no matter what the situation was!

this…

Cheng Yu couldn't help but ask himself.

——Where does this kid get his confidence? No, it was Guan Lin behind him. Where did he get the confidence? So swearing... so certain? 』

Hehehe...

Cheng Yu smiled and asked, Nephew Zhuge, have you made a mistake? Now that your Wancheng is hanging out alone, don't you think that the land of the Nine Provinces of Wei Dynasty, with millions of soldiers... is not enough? Flatten a small Wancheng, right? Hahaha... If we really want to cede land and compromise, then it seems that you Jingzhou should cede land and compromise! Isn't your condition the opposite?

Facing Cheng Yu's doubts, Zhuge Ke showed his unique confidence as always. Of course... this confidence seemed a bit conceited in Cheng Yu's opinion.

Zhuge Ke said meticulously, I represent Jingzhou, and Jingzhou's demands will not change... This is the only purpose I am here to serve as an envoy to Wei!

Listening to Zhuge Ke's words, Cheng Yu couldn't help but laugh. He even couldn't help but laugh at the man in front of him. Is he a newborn calf not afraid of tigers, or is he trying to attract Wei's attention before the water is poured back in the coming July!

——Is this...a conspiracy? 』

Cheng Yu calmed down, he thought it was the latter.

Guan Lin cheating to death is no longer useful!

This guy came up with a new idea, but unfortunately...because of Soochow's water conservancy master Yan Zhen, all the conspiracies and tricks related to water diversion...cannot be hidden.

This time, the Guan family father and son are destined to lose!

hehe…

Cheng Yu responded to Zhuge Ke with a light laugh, then shook his head and sighed: It's great to be young. Young people... dare to fight and fight hard. Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. It's great, it's great -

Speaking of which, the meeting between Wei Dynasty and the Jingzhou envoy came to an end.

At this moment, Cheng Yu pulled his thoughts back from the meeting. He whispered to Cao Cao: In my opinion, it is not necessarily that Guan Lin has lost his mind and gone crazy...perhaps, it is Guan Lin who borrowed Zhuge Ke's words to use another person's words. It’s a way to attract the king’s attention, but its purpose is still to divert water and pour it back into Fancheng!”

At this point, Cheng Yu pondered slightly and added, Actually, I'm a little scared when I think about it. If it weren't for Huang Hao, if it weren't for Yan Zhen... maybe the king and General Zixiao are still in the dark. I have to say …Guan Lin’s plan is very vicious and destructive, but it’s just right!”

This is the reason why Cao Cao likes Cheng Yu. Often, before Cao Cao figures it out, Cheng Yu can figure it out clearly for him!

Need to know - from Cheng Li to Cheng Yu!

——Cao Cao is Cheng Yu’s sun!

What Zhongde said is absolutely true, let alone the envoy... Cao Cao waved his hand in a cool and unrestrained manner, sweating from his forehead, which made his face look more radiant, and also made his headache inexplicably heal a lot. , the spirit was also shocked.

I'm asking you, how's it going in Huainan?

As soon as Cao Cao asked this question, Cheng Yu replied without thinking: According to the tacit understanding between the king and the Marquis of Wu, all the cities south and east of Shouchun in Huainan have been captured by Soochow...

In this way, we can feed the rat Sun Quan! Cao Cao showed no regret or sorrow for the loss of these cities.

He said solemnly, Sun Quan's son... is very short-sighted. Compared with his father and his brother, he is far worse. If I give him a jujube and use the land of Huainan to seduce him, he can get rid of me for him. A serious concern, haha, if the Guan family and his son lose Jingzhou, sooner or later Huainan will still be alone, or will it belong to the Wei Dynasty? Sooner or later, these cities that Sun Quan got will have to be vomited out!

After saying this, Cao Cao became very high-spirited, as if...except for the Guan family father and son, no one in the whole world...could put him in his eyes.

Cheng Yu added in time: Your Majesty, it is said that... someone saw Gan Ning in Xiakou. Yesterday I talked with Zhuge Ziyu and it was confirmed that Gan Ning and Gan Xingba, whom Soochow regarded as a national traitor, are now in Jingzhou... Sun Quan is aware of this matter!

Well…

Cheng Yu's words are quite intriguing.

Hearing this, Cao Cao pondered for a while, and finally said with emotion: It seems that the Sun-Liu alliance is really dead in name only. Haha, I can finally let go of my hanging heart. Haha, I agreed with Sun Quan to attack Jingzhou from both sides. It’s very close. So, what’s the situation over there in Fancheng?”

Cao Cao changed the topic and brought the topic from Huainan to Xiangfan.

Cheng Yu replied without thinking: Relying on the king's advice, we mobilized the whole country to raise sandbags and ships to assist Fancheng, Yancheng, and Pinglu City... Recently, General Zixiao sent a message back, saying that sandbags were piled up like a mountain behind the inner city wall. The barrier, even if the Han River flows back, is enough to protect the city! As for the ships...although they are not warships, they are numerous in number. Even if the sandbags cannot block the water flow, they are enough to protect the Wei Dynasty's 100,000-strong army on the ships!

Where is the food? Cao Cao continued to ask seriously, What Mr. Yan of Dongwu meant was that the Han River was flowing backwards. He could not change the water flow, but could only make Xiangfan become a vast ocean. At that time... Zixiao and Yunchang The competition is for emergencies and military ration reserves!

When it comes to food and grass, Cao Cao's tone is meticulous and his expression is quite solemn.

However, Cheng Yu seemed to have expected Cao Cao's question, The grain reserves are enough to consume one hundred thousand troops for half a year. In addition, according to detailed reports, Guan Yu is focused on digging a reservoir south of the Han River and There is no special reserve of grain and grass... Once the Han River pours into Xiangfan, then... the first person who cannot handle the water flow and the grain supply must be Xiangyang!

Don't be careless! Before Cheng Yu could finish speaking, Cao Cao interrupted directly, his tone was quite serious. In the past year, the father and son of the Guan family have suffered a lot from Gu! You write a letter on behalf of Gu to tell Zixiao and ask him to be careful... Think twice before making a decision, and make a decision before taking action! Don't be careless and underestimate the enemy!

this…

Cheng Yu thought for a moment, then raised his hands and said hey!

In fact, he paid more attention to the Xiangfan battlefield than Cao Cao, and... all kinds of information about the Xiangfan battlefield were transmitted to him first, and he knew the situation well.

This time... it relies on the deployment of Yan Zhen, the water conservancy master, and Cao Ren's careful execution.

Cheng Yuneng is sure...

Guan Yu didn't know that a reservoir had also been built north of the Han River. When the water rose, the dams on both sides of the bank would be opened at the same time, and the north and south of the Han River... would all turn into a vast ocean!

In other words, in terms of preparation, Cao Ren was much more prepared than Guan Yu, and Cao Cao, the king of Wei, ordered... to mobilize the whole country to rush to the rescue.

Cheng Yu rarely dared to be sure.

——This battle... is foolproof.

I have finished talking about the envoy from Jingzhou, I have finished talking about Huainan, and I have finished talking about Xiangfan.

It seemed that there was nothing else to report. Cheng Yu handed over his hand and was about to say goodbye to Cao Cao. But just as he handed over his hand, Cao Cao seemed to have thought of something.

How is Zhi'er's construction of Luoyang going?

ah…

Cheng Yu was slightly surprised when he asked this question out of the blue.

He thought for a moment, recalled the report about Luoyang, and then reported back truthfully, First, Mr. Zihuan and Mr. Li laid the foundation, and then Mr. Zijian spared no effort to build it. Today, Luoyang is generally completed, with a solid city and a moat. It’s so deep that even the Palace of Wei Palace is ten times more grand than the palace in Yecheng, but...it only lacks the last few details. It is expected that it will be completely completed in ten or eight days, and then we will have the conditions to move the capital!

The capital relocation mentioned by Cheng Yu... has two meanings. One is that the capital of Han Dynasty was moved from Xudu to Luoyang, and the other is that the capital of Wei Dynasty was moved from Yecheng to Luoyang...

Of course, which one to implement depends on the situation.

only…

This was not what Cao Cao was thinking about. He asked calmly: How come I heard that Zihuan specifically left his wife Zhen in Luoyang when he went to Jiangdong as an envoy? Is this happening?

this…

Cheng Yu pondered for a moment, wondering whether he should say...

He pondered for a long time before replying: But there is such a thing!

Cao Cao's expression suddenly turned gloomy, What about Zijian? Is he distracted by this sister-in-law?

This... Cheng Yu hesitated, how should he answer this.

Haha... Cao Cao suddenly laughed, Zhongde, you are older than me, why do you bother to hide it for the younger generation? Just tell the truth! Besides, if you don't tell the truth, Gu You Can’t you find out?”

truth…

Cheng Yu bit his lip and replied firmly: The Marquis of Pingyuan and Mrs. Zhen treat each other as guests——

Hahahaha... This time, Cao Cao laughed quite happily. He raised his hands while laughing, It's also embarrassing for them. These two sons... are good. The prince's position is up for grabs. They can fight for it. Shining brightly!

Cheng Yu could only say, Your Majesty, great blessings will rise to the sky...

Cao Cao was still laughing, Let's see this time. If Gu's innermost worries can be eliminated, Zihuan, who has been on an envoy to Soochow for half a year, will be the first to do so. When the time comes, Gu will make him the crown prince... But what if...

When he mentioned but if it is, Cao Cao's voice suddenly stopped.

What he meant to say was:

——If something happens and Xu Du is forced to move his capital to Luoyang, Zijian will be more familiar with the terrain there and be more harmonious with the people there. At that time... he can only let Zijian build Luoyang. Jian becomes the prince! 』

——There is also Li Miao. Others don't know it, but Ke Gu knows his position best. If Zijian becomes the prince, Li Miao... with his ability to follow the dragon, he will definitely enter the Ba family in advance! 』

Of course, these words...Cao Cao was unable to say them in the end.

On the other hand, Cheng Yu could already see through Cao Cao's mind.

But seeing through it is one thing, telling it or not telling it is another thing entirely.

Zu Zihong opened his mouth, but still swallowed all the words he wanted to say. He only said lightly, If there is nothing else, Your Majesty, I will leave first!

Go... Cao Cao waved his hand.

Then, as he watched Cheng Yu descending the steps of King Wei's palace one by one, he couldn't help but sigh to himself: Although Luoyang has been repaired, Ke Gu hopes that it will never be used!

…

…

——Liu Chan burned down the beacon tower!

On the outskirts of Xiangyang City, there is a stronghold of the Guan family and a large tent of the Chinese army.

When Guan Yu heard the news, his maroon cheeks suddenly changed color, as if they turned a little white due to nervousness and disbelief.

From big red dates to the color of winter dates.

Zhou Cang was still reporting nervously, but his speech was a little stuttered: Yesterday... Master Liu Chan burned three beacon towers. If...if he hadn't stumbled and fell for the last time, he was captured by the Guan family sergeant. I'm afraid... Yes... I'm afraid more than three beacon towers have been burned... By the way, General Zhao Zilong is also there... Now, he is guarding Mr. Liu Chan, and the defenders don't know how to deal with it, so they immediately rush to report to the second general!

Following Zhou Cang's words, Guan Yu's red phoenix eyes almost opened and closed to the extreme. Bewilderment, confusion, confusion, surprise... all the emotions were added to these red phoenix eyes.

Xu Shu happened to be there too, and he showed an extremely incredible expression.

He asked doubtfully: Why did Mr. Liu Chan burn the beacon tower for no reason?

This question is also what Guan Yu wants to ask.

His Danfeng eyes were filled with extremely strong and complex emotions. There was disbelief, but it was as if...he knew something.

Ha...how could Liu Chan burn a beacon tower?

This is obvious...it was instructed by Guan Lin!

Second General, Military Advisor Xu...the defender also asked him why he burned the beacon tower...but he said...

This time Zhou Cang was halfway through his words when he was interrupted by Guan Yu.

say no more!

yes…

Guan Lin was still pretending to die in name. No matter what his purpose was, from Liu Chan's mouth, it should not be said that it was Guan Lin who ordered him to do it.

Even now, Guan Yu is still worried that this will expose his son Guan Lin's plan.

but…

Although he stopped Zhou Cang from talking, he couldn't help but think about it.

——What is Yun Qi doing? Isn't it cheating to die? Don't you even want to pretend? It was about to divert water back into Fancheng. What move was he going to make? Why is Zilong also following their mischief? 』

Guan Yu was at a loss... and he couldn't understand his son's thoughts even more.

at this time…

Xu Shu groaned, as if he had found something from this piece of information.

That’s right… there’s a problem, a big problem!

Xu Shu immediately asked Zhou Cang, Does General Zhou know how Mr. Liu Chan burned the beacon tower? The beacon tower is so high, didn't he take precautions in advance?

This is the value of strategist. In history, Guan Yu single-handedly fought against Cao Wei and Soochow... He was indeed a tiger!

However, the reason why he finally lost Maicheng was because of his carelessness and personality...

It is also closely related to the lack of a strategist around him who can peel off the general information and extract the most critical factors...

Now, Xu Shu's emergence has made up for Guan Yu's shortcomings in this area, making it easier for him to see the truth under the layers of fog!

When Xu Shu asked this question, Guan Yu also calmed down and focused on this issue. He said calmly: Yes, the beacon tower is used to detect enemy attacks? How come it is so easy for Liu Chan to get close? Three more places were burned down in a row. Beacon Tower?”

Zhou Cang really knows this question...

He quickly reported the truth, It was Bai Yi. Liu Chan and his subordinates all disguised themselves as white merchants. The white clothes and white boats... deceived the defenders on the beacon tower, and then... only then did they get closer and easily burn the beacon tower. !”

really…

Zhou Cang's answer confirmed Xu Shu's conjecture.

Xu Shu's eyes turned to Guan Yu, and he said meticulously: It seems that this is the real intention of Master Yunqi to instruct Master Liu Chan to burn the beacon tower...

Speaking of this, Xu Shu further reminded, Master Liu Chan burned the beacon tower, which reminded me of four months ago, when the beacon tower was first built. Lu Meng led the warship to Jingnan to pick up Mrs. Sun, and the beacon tower observed everything. And immediately lit the beacon fire to let Jiangling City and Changsha City know... But still, Yun Chang must not forget that there are dozens of Jiaozhou warships blocking Lu Meng's warship. These ships... are numerous in number, And they are all warships, so why is there no news about the Beacon Tower?

Xu Shu doesn't like to beat around the bush when he talks. When he encounters a problem, he will definitely point it out sharply and to the point, and will never tolerate it. Yun Chang, it's a blessing that it's Jiaozhou...it's the warship of Yunqi's ally. If it were...Soochow What about the warships? What if it is a surprise attack on Soochow? Then as long as we use the white merchant ships as cover, we can easily break through the sight of the beacon tower and give Changsha and Jiangling a sudden blow!

Speaking of this, Xu Shu paused, pondered for a moment, and then said, It seems that whether it is the fire of Mr. Liu Chan or the fire of the young master behind him... this is reminding us! This fire …It was released well and very timely!”

Following Xu Shu’s words…

Guan Yu felt his legs weaken and he sat down on the bamboo mat.

Xu Shu is a military advisor, he is analyzing.

But Guan Yu is the commander-in-chief, and he will deduce based on Xu Shu's analysis and overall situation...especially in these troubled times.

In other words, he can divert water into Xiangfan, but what if Soochow wants to stab him in the back? That...beacon tower can't stop it at all!

——White merchant ship! 』

——Crossing the river in white clothes! 』

Guan Yu chanted these two words in his heart, which made him feel a creepy feeling.

Finally, after pondering for a long time, Guan Yu opened his mouth.

But he only chanted five words: What a fire!

Actually, that's what he was thinking.

This beacon tower can't protect Soochow, so it's better not to use it, then it's better to burn them all——

…

…

Sixty warships disguised as merchant ships have already been painted with white paint.

The ship is piled with boxes of all sizes. From a distance, it looks like a merchant ship carrying goods... No one would have thought that there are two types of boxes. The outer ones are goods, and the inner ones are swords, guns, swords, halberds, etc. Ax, axe, hook and fork!

At the same time, the three thousand elite Jiangdong naval forces now have a new look...each and every one of them behaves like a shrewd businessman.

this…

This is the army that crossed the river in white clothes in Lu Meng's plan!

The seventh day of the seventh lunar month was the day Sun Quan and Cao Cao agreed to attack Xiangfan from both sides.

The reason why this time is set is not because of the romance of Chinese Valentine's Day, but because Yan Zhen, a water conservancy expert in Soochow, deduced based on experience that on the seventh day of July... the flow of Hanshui water will reach its peak during the high water period.

This is also the best opportunity to divert water back into Xiangfan.

Similarly, it is also a good opportunity for Guan Yu to be attacked from both sides.

Today is June 29th...it is very close to the agreed time, and Lu Meng is also making final arrangements...final drills.

Where are the beacon towers? Where are the blind spots in the field of vision? If you are discovered, how should you respond? These... We have trained countless times in the past four months! Today, every one of you captains will follow me again Go through it once! The camp chief goes through it once with the school captain, the commander goes through it with the village chief, the corps commander goes through it with the chief officer... everyone has to go through it once!

Because the opponent is the Guan family father and son...

Lumont was very energetic and did not dare to slack off at all.

He even built dozens of simple beacon towers in the waters of Jiangdong just to allow the soldiers to simulate actual combat... It can be said that for four months, every day and every night, even when the soldiers were sleeping, They are all simulating... how to break through this beacon tower.

How to continue moving forward quietly under the sight of the beacon tower, and then reach Changsha, Jiangling...

Give that Guan Jiajun a fatal blow!

The so-called...success and fame!

If you win this battle, you will be a hero and become famous all over the world. But if you lose the battle, then there are only three words - rather die!

Lu Meng is still doing the final training...

Before the day of actual combat, he did not dare to slack off or waste a moment, a stick of incense, or a breath.

Never thought...

at this time.

Report——

There was a message that a navy spy from Soochow came to report, The beacon tower has burned down...

Well…

Lu Meng had heard that two days ago... three beacon towers caught fire inexplicably.

Because Guan Yu blocked the news, even the scouts and spies could not find out the reason!

Of course, before the flood period... there will be a period of exceptionally dry and dry weather, so it is not surprising that a fire may occur accidentally.

Lu Meng could only think about this aspect, and even thought that maybe - God helps me!

You know, without a few beacon towers, the success rate of Soochow Navy's infiltration will undoubtedly be greatly increased. This... Lu Meng is the most aware of it.

Isn't it those three beacon towers? A secret agent reported this news yesterday!

Lu Meng waved his hand and signaled to the spy - your information is out of date!

Who would have thought that the secret agent, who was kneeling on one knee, suddenly raised his head, and the muscles in his cheeks seemed to tighten suddenly due to nervousness. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: It's not those three beacon towers, but... Instead, all the beacon towers were ignited, all... burned together——

…

…
