Chapter 745

Great Yangtze River! It is bounded by Min and E in the west, Sanwu in the south, and Jiuhe in the north. It joins hundreds of rivers and enters the sea, and it has been used for thousands of years. As far as Ruo Longbo, Hai Ruo, Jiang Fei, jellyfish, long whales thousands of feet, nine centipedes, ghosts and strange species, there are salty gatherings. The ghosts and gods of Geff rely on, and the heroes fight.

(This section is called the Yangtze River, which traverses the east and west, meets hundreds of rivers and is like the sea. What is there in the river? You can see the fog in front of you, the river is wide, and the work of nature. How come there are no ghosts in the river, all kinds of colors? Strange creatures.)

Yin and yang are both chaotic at times, and there is no distinction between ignorance and coolness. Astonished at the color of the sky, suddenly the four villages of the fog. Although the public salary is not seen, only the golden drum can be heard. At the beginning, it was like a misty sea, and it was only when the leopards of the Nanshan Mountains were hidden; Then it goes up to the sky and sags down to the thick ground, which is almost vast and boundless. The whale salamander rises out of the water, and the dragon dives into the abyss and exhales. Another example is Mei Lin’s harvest, the spring cloudy season is cold, the Ming Ming is deserted, and the vastness is long. To the east is the shore of Chaisang, and to the south there is no mountain of Xiakou. Thousands of warships sank into the rocky ravine; a leaf of a fishing boat was frightened in the waves. Even then, the sky becomes dull, and the morning sun loses its color; when it returns to daytime, it becomes dim and yellow, and the mountains turn into clear water. Although the wisdom of the Great Yu cannot measure its shallowness and depth; how can it be discerned within a short distance from Lou’s wisdom?

(There is a foggy river scene in 1.4 here. The fog is very thick. How can you see both sides of the strait? It is like a lonely boat walking in the boundless water and fog. In such a foggy environment, all kinds of magical creatures can emerge from the water. Kunpeng also It can come out and spit water, as if it is not far from the ship. However, the fog is full, and it is still invisible.)

So Feng Yi breathed out the waves, screened the shadows and received his work; fish and turtles escaped, and birds and beasts stalked. Cut off the island of Penglai, and secretly surround the palace of Changhe. In a trance, it is like a rainstorm coming; it is mixed and mixed, like the desire of cold clouds. It can hide poisonous snakes, and because of it, it becomes a miasma; it hides demons and charms, and it becomes a scourge. The disease is brought down in the human world, and the dust is raised outside the fortress. The young people suffered premature death, and the adults sighed with emotion. Gai will return to the primordial qi in the Great Desolation, and the world will become a big piece.

(Such a thick fog hangs down the river, the battleship gallops, and the block in my heart is exhausted. The adult who has thousands of strategies in his chest will be able to greet the river and sigh with emotion!).

One hundred and sixty-six chapters above the hall

Fazheng followed Lu Su and rode a boat all the way on the Yangtze River. Passing the checkpoint, he saw Lu Su standing on the bow of the boat, and he let him go respectfully. Unimpeded all the way, will arrive at Chaisang in a few days. I heard that Zhou Yu has also dealt with the matter at hand, and is coming day and night. It is expected that he will be able to arrive at Chaisang today or tomorrow.

When Sun Quan saw Fazheng coming, he was not in a hurry to see him. Let Fazheng discuss it with the wise men of Jiangdong.

Fa Zheng disembarked at the dock with Lu Su, and sure enough, all Jiangdong sergeants were majestic, wearing light-colored armor and lined with white robes. There are many sentries by the pier, the sergeant looks alert, and it seems that there is a military camp not far away. That Chaisang is not far from the Yangtze River. It needs to pass through the fortress of Jiujiang before entering the city.

“This kind of natural danger, ten thousand people don’t open it; this kind of soldiers, there is no despair; why should you surrender!” Fazheng couldn’t help but sighed.

“Mr. Fazheng thinks the same as I do!” Lu Su was very happy to see Fazheng’s affirmation of Jiang Dong’s strength. “There are many people in the DPRK who are afraid of Cao Cao’s power, but they don’t know that after three generations of Dongwu, I have accumulated wealth, the people are rich, the ministers and generals are gathered, and there are natural dangers. Iron is not steel, how can these surrender factions not see such obvious Soochow inner strength! Especially Zhang Zhao and Zhang Zibu, who are already old officials of the Eastern Wu Dynasty, can’t even see this. Fazheng followed Lu Su all the way into the inner city and met Zhuge Jin first. This Zhuge Jin is tall, slightly fat, and looks like a good gentleman. Seeing Fazheng and Lu Su, he salutes and said, “Mr. Fazheng, my master Sun Quan has asked me to meet you. Please come to the conference hall for a conversation.” He gave a gesture of “please”. Fazheng couldn’t help but look at Zhuge Jin a few more times, his eyebrows still looked a bit like Zhuge Liang. Just a little fatter than Zhuge Liang, but also more calm and honest. Zhuge Liang was the superintendent of the country on Luochen’s side, and although Zhuge Jin was quite trusted by Sun Quan here, he was still incomparable.

Fazheng followed Lu Su into the hall while thinking wildly. The boots of the **** soldiers stepped on the wooden floor, making a thudding sound. The ministers raised their heads when they heard the voice. As soon as Fa Zheng saw it, there were some counselors sitting in twos and threes on both sides. Most of them wear official uniforms, which seem to be quite solemn.

With all the attention, the hall instantly seemed a little empty. Fazheng felt that curiosity and hostility were mixed in these eyes. According to Lu Su’s previous introduction, so, most of the people here are the descendants of the Lord?

“Please sit down.” Lu Su reminded.

Fazheng saluted slightly, and it was considered that he had met with Jiangdong’s advisers. Jiangdong rat generation… Fazheng has scolded Jiangdong people before, especially when Luochen and Cao Cao confronted Tongguan. At that time, the Jiangdong public opinion field believed that Luochen did not have an advantage over Cao Cao. After the news broke that the Luochen Group and Cao Cao had reached a settlement and the Luochen army went north to attack the Xiongnu, people in Jiangdong thought it was even more stupid. Fazheng issued an article denouncing Jiangdong’s public opinion field, saying that they are “short-sighted”, “rat generation”, a group of rotten Confucians. And named Zhang Zhao as an old and incompetent old man. Now it’s really a narrow road for the enemy, and the enemy sees each other, and they are very jealous… This time, this group of Jiangdong advisors will surrender again. It was on behalf of the Liu Bei Group, or the Liu Bei Luochen Group Alliance, that he came to persuade the Sun Liu Alliance. The alliance of Sun and Liu against Cao will benefit Liu Bei first. If Jiangdong surrenders, Liu Bei will surely die. Furthermore, it is bound to be good for Luochen. If Jiangdong surrenders without a fight and the entire southeast falls into the hands of Cao Cao, then Cao Cao is strong and Luochen is relatively weak. The benefits of the Sun-Liu Alliance to Liu Bei and Luochen are undeniable, but for Sun Quan, it is still debatable. Is resistance beneficial? Or is it better to surrender directly?

It seems that this debate is inevitable.

Fazheng even felt a little strange for a moment. He was still in the far north desert a few days ago, planning a head-to-head battle with the Huns for General Xu Da. How did he arrive in Jiangnan so quickly, in this hall full of people from Jiangdong. What’s even more paradoxical is that he is a deputy military adviser under Luochen, who is also a senior advisor. Why did he suddenly come to Liu Bei and start speaking on behalf of Liu Bei… All of this was arranged by Luochen? Yes, the shadow of Luo Chen’s one-handed movement can be seen everywhere.

Fazheng was distracted, when a person suddenly stood up in the seat and said loudly: “Mr. Fazheng was originally a high-ranking counselor under Duke Luochen. It is an honor and honor to come to Jiangdong today to give advice in person. It’s just that I don’t know something, and Duke Luochen sent Mr. Liu Bei’s office was watched by the whole world. I thought that it would be possible to fight against Cao Cao, and Jingzhou could be protected. Although he was a child in the southeast, he also said that Cao Cao could not fight. Unexpectedly, Cao Cao stepped on the iron hoof, Liu Bei lost his helmet and discarded his armor, and the husband fled in the desert. People are ashamed!”

Fa Zheng looked at him and saw that he was an old man with a white robe and white beard. He was supposed to be Zhang Zhao, the leader of the sect. Fa Zheng also named and scolded him in the past year, but now Zhang Zhao took the lead in launching the attack. Fazheng heard this question again and felt so familiar! Thinking about it, isn’t this what Luo Chen wrote to him? Some similar conversations… I didn’t understand when I was reading it earlier, but Lu Su came to interrupt it. These days, I came to Chaisang day and night, leaving this matter behind 460. Now I heard similar remarks in the main hall… Could it be this prophet who has fallen into the dust? Fazheng felt a chill down his spine. It is said that Lord Luochen has superhuman abilities, but now this paradoxical thing has made him feel it personally…

“Sir…” Lu Su’s voice came from his ear. Fazheng came back to his senses only then, and Lu Su was in a trance when he saw that he didn’t speak, thinking that something had happened. And Jiangdong’s advisors thought he couldn’t answer because he couldn’t answer, so they couldn’t help laughing.

“Liu Biao died, Cai’s chaotic ministers and Shuzi Liu Cong are in control of the state.” Fazheng said sharply, and all the scholars in Jiangdong who were laughing were stunned. Now that Luochen had reminded him, Fazheng could just follow the train of thought in Luochen’s letter and anger these people. “Uncle Liu, a benevolent person in the world, can’t bear to be attacked by the same family, so he wants to let it go. Otherwise, the uncle has Zhang Zhao’s bravery, the people’s will, and the assistance of General Huang Zhong’s 100,000 iron cavalry outside, won’t it be easy to take Jingzhou!” Fazheng left his seat and went to the center of the hall, scolding him in a stern voice: “Sir, just relying on his own imagination, how can he be as good as the uncle! Ju Jiangxia is short-sighted to comprehend!”

Zhang Zhao was speechless. .

Chapter 167 Angrily denounces Confucian scholars

However, he was scolding Zhang Zhao sharply, and Zhang Zhao was at a loss for words and could not answer. There was a person standing on the seat, it was Yu Fan, wearing a black Confucian robe, with a white face and a short beard. At first glance, it is a local young adviser in Jiangdong. Na Yu said: “Now Cao Cao has a million troops and they are deployed along the river. He can conquer Jiangxia in a matter of days, but I can’t cope with Jiangdong. Now, Mr. Fazheng, what is there to say! Is Liu Yuzhou with a mere 10,000 troops? , can you stop an army of millions?”

Fazheng said: “Liu Yuzhou’s elite soldiers are guarding Jiangxia, and don’t plan for future plans. The people of Jingzhou all return to their hearts. General Huang Zhong’s iron cavalry is stationed at the gate of Yizhou, and he is ready to attack Cao’s thieves at any time. Cao’s army is worthless, and the rat generation is not afraid.” Na Yufan laughed loudly: “Cao’s army went south, Huang Zhong shrank his head and tortoise, Liu Bei lost his helmet and armor, defeated Xinye and Xiangfan, and fled to Changbanpo. So embarrassed, he was embarrassed to say that Cao Jun was a rat…”

Fazheng sneered: “Liu Yuzhou alone is indeed outnumbered, thousands of benevolent teachers, An Neng against millions of brutal enemies? However, Uncle Huang decided to stick to Jiangxia, and would rather die than humiliate Han officials. Have pity on you people, Jiangdong The soldiers have enough food, the foundation of the third generation, and the mere Confucian Confucianism. With just one mouth, he will hand over the defendable land to others. It is shameful, hateful, and contemptible! How to face the ancestors Sun Jian and Sun Ce with face, how to face Jiang Dong with face people!”

Yu Fan who said this was so ashamed, his mouth was speechless, and he had to sit down angrily.

There was another person in the seat, with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, quite thin. The man sneered, “Did Mr. Fazheng come to study Su Qin and Zhang Yi’s lobbying?” Fazheng didn’t know him and looked at Lu Su. Lu Su hurriedly said: “This person is Jiangdong advisor Bu Gu.” Fa Zheng nodded slightly, but he didn’t really want to answer. Damn, it’s really nonsense. Isn’t Lao Tzu here to lobby for Luo Chen and Liu Bei to persuade Sun Quan to fight against Cao… Is this person just reacting now? This IQ tells me how to answer. However, Fazheng had read Luochen’s letter and seemed to be complimenting Su Qin and Zhang Yi. So Fazheng painted the scoop according to the gourd, and he was right. The budgie couldn’t answer either.

Another person stood up during the banquet and said, “Mr. Fazheng’s arguments are all arrogant and non-orthodox, so there is no need to say any more. May I ask what kind of scriptures Mr. Fazheng rules”? “Fazheng was very funny when he heard it. When is this time, Cao Cao’s army is overwhelmed, and he doesn’t talk about military affairs, but he wants to compete in Confucian classics, and then what those who are proficient in classics say in military affairs is right. Yes? Sure enough, the rat generation of Jiangdong, now I know why Sun Quan values ​​Lu Su so much. It turns out that Jiangdong’s so-called advisers, Ruyun, are a bunch of useless scumbags, and Lu Su is a thriving. That is, Zhang Zhao and Yu Fan’s words are a little bit more. Lethality, the others are not worth refuting at all. Fazheng couldn’t help showing a look of contempt: “Xunzhang excerpts, rotten Confucians! Now Cao Cao’s army is overwhelming, but they engage in these outdated things. Jiang Ziya, Zhang Liang, Chen Ping, the world’s great talents, have never seen any rules in his life. Sir, please sit down, sir, the argument is really not worth refuting. “The man sat down in shame.

Above the dignified Jiangdong Hall, Fazheng responded like a flow, and there was a bunch of counselors in Jiangdong, but none of them could even resist. Zhang Zhao and the others all changed color and looked at each other in dismay.

At this time, another scholar in the corner stood up. This man had fair complexion, not even a mustache, and looked only in his early twenties. The man cupped his hands and said: “Mr. Fazheng’s analysis is correct, but everything must start with the worst plan. If the Sun-Liu Alliance is still outnumbered, it is obvious that foreign aid is needed. I wonder if Prime Minister Luochen can give Jiangdong support. If you can, how quickly can the fallen troops come here, and how many can there be?”

Fa Zheng heard it, this is a good question! After busy looking at Lu Su, Lu Su said: “This is the word Boyan of Councilor Lu Xun. Because of his young age, he did not officially participate in the discussion, but was just here to listen.”

Fazheng couldn’t help but say: “Good question! Lu Boyan is so young, he has such a thorough understanding of the current situation, and I admire it. Once Sun and Liu form an alliance to fight against Cao Cao, I Luochen Group will also support Jiangdong. If Jiangdong’s situation is critical, Huang The 100,000 loyal cavalry can immediately go into assistance and obey the command of Duke Sun Zhongmou. In addition, according to the latest news we have received, the victory of our army in the northern battlefield has been determined. As long as Jiangdong can hold on for one month, the fallen army will inevitably be thrown into the battle with Cao’s army. ”

As a matter of fact, Fazheng was a little bit open-mouthed, Luochen didn’t tell him that, but according to the latest news and his own understanding, Fazheng guessed that Luochen should do this. Moreover, above the lobby, Lu Xun and the people from Jiangdong must have an answer. He was too far away from Luochen, and he didn’t have time to ask for instructions, so he had to just say it according to his own understanding.

Lu Xun frowned and thought about it, Fazheng answered every sentence, and he was quite sure. But he still asked: “.’Is the Luochen army going to directly intervene in the southeast battlefield? Or do they attack Xuchang, the hinterland of Cao Cao, and use the method of encircling Wei to save Zhao? How many troops can your army dispatch?”

Nafazheng said: “The main force of our army in the north now consists of more than 400,000 people led by General Xu Da, and 150,000 people led by Lord Luochen and Lv Bu and Chang Yuchun, totaling nearly 700,000 people. In a month, these 700,000 troops will be able to march south, and they will attack according to the actual situation. Soldiers always have to make combat arrangements according to the ever-changing situation on the battlefield. Mr. Lu Boyan is so smart, he should be able to understand this… So I Now I don’t know how our army will get involved.”

As soon as Lu Xun heard it was reasonable, he stopped asking.

That Jiangdong advisors have long been impatient to hear. Na Yu said: “Don’t listen to this Mr. Fazheng painting a big cake here. The Luochen army is now north of the Great Wall, 108,000 miles away from my Jiangdong. How can you expect it? Pointing at the Luochen army is not funny!” Everyone have joined.

There was a lot of noise in the hall, and a veteran general walked in with a thud, frowning and shouting: “Now Cao Jun’s soldiers are pressing down on the border, and they don’t discuss how to deal with it, but they make things difficult for Mr. Fazheng here, how is it that I am hospitality in Jiangdong? ?” He walked to Fazheng’s side and said, “Don’t blame Mr. Fazheng… My master invited you to answer in the inner hall.” He made a gesture of “please”. Fazheng returned the salute while listening to Lu Su’s introduction: “This is Jiangdong veteran Huang Gai.”

Chapter 168 Exciting Generals

Fa Zheng followed Huang Gai into the back hall, only to see Sun Quan sitting right behind the side of a small group of cases. As soon as Sun Quan saw Fazheng coming, he got up and saluted, “Sir came from a long way, but if you miss it, please look forward to Mr. Haihan.” Fazheng couldn’t help but stared at Sun Quan carefully. Really “blue-eyed”. Maroon hair, blue eyes, high nose bridge, quite weird. The behavior is moderate and moderate, not as casual as Cao Cao and others, it can be seen that he is still a novice. Fazheng had met Cao Cao when they met in Tongguan. Hundreds of thousands of troops on both sides faced each other. Cao Cao joked as usual and was quite relaxed. Obviously there is the spirit of a hero in the world. The Prime Minister Luochen is not so mature, but his demeanor is modest, as if he is clear about what he has done, he knows everything well, and he has considerable confidence. When doing things, you are used to listening to the opinions of the ministers first, and then making a decision with confidence. In this respect, Sun Quan seems to be a little bit like Luo Chen. This well-behaved young protagonist looks like he is thirsty for talents and wants to get advice from experts.

That Sun Quan said, “Sir has been dealing with Cao Cao all the way from north to south. Now that Cao Cao’s army is overwhelming, what can you teach me? It is rumored that Cao Cao has an army of one million, but is it true?” Cultured look, extremely focused. Between the eyebrows, it is Tian Zi Cong 630 Ying. At this time, his reddish-brown beard seemed to be majestic.

Fazheng thought of the last line of the letter: use the method of brute force. Could it be that this is the case?

Fazheng didn’t have time to think about it, and said: “Cao’s army has taken the four counties of Hebei, and its strength has increased sharply. The army has no less than a few hundred thousand, and the grain and grass are countless. Hebei is rich, and the annual grain tax is enough to support an army of more than half a million. After Cao’s army moved south, nearly 300,000 troops from Jingzhou were incorporated. In addition to the original Cao’s army of hundreds of thousands of horses, the Cao’s army of one million is already a conservative estimate.” An army of more than one million… To tell you the truth, the standing army in Jiangdong is only about 200,000. Now some of the court are persuading me to surrender, and some persuade me to join Liu against Cao, what is your opinion?”

Fazheng immediately said solemnly: “Please surrender immediately, the Jiangdong district has no courage to fight against Cao Cao.”

Lu Su was shocked, this Fa Zheng, who had agreed with himself to persuade Sun Quan to fight against Cao Cao, was in the hall just now angrily scolding the Lord for surrendering, so why did he persuade Sun Quan to surrender now.

Sun Quan also looked shocked. Sun Quan already knew that Fazheng had come to persuade him to resist Cao Cao. How could he say this? Sun Quan pondered for a while, then said, “Then why didn’t Liu Bei surrender?” Fazheng wanted this comparison. Only in this way can Sun Quan be angered. This Sun Quan could clearly see how he could be a lord who was willing to subdue himself. Jiangdong has gone through three generations, and Sun Quan is a hero in the world, subservient to others and at the mercy of others. The most important thing now is to awaken Sun Quan’s “original intention” of heroes and heroes, and not to be fooled by those counselors who care about their interests. Obviously, from the bottom of his heart, Sun Quan definitely didn’t want to be submissive to others and be at the mercy of others.

“Uncle Liu is a hero in the world. Didn’t you hear that Tian Heng led eight hundred warriors to defend the isolated island and never surrender to Qin? Uncle Huang is a relative of the Han family and a hero in the world. It is impossible for him to be at the mercy of Cao Cao. I will never surrender.” Fa Zheng showed contempt, as if Sun Quan and Liu Bei were not on the same level at all. “The general can invite you to surrender. If Duke Cao is happy, he can also be named a marquis and go to Xuchang to retire. The general is a dutiful son, so you can bring your mother too.” He said with a smile. -Although I didn’t say it clearly, it always felt weird. Everyone knew that Liu Cong took his mother, Mrs. Cai’s wife, to the so-called Qingzhou to be the prefect, but Cao Cao sent someone to kill him on the way. What does this Fa-rectification mean by specifically emphasizing a mother?

Sure enough, Sun Quan was furious. Although Sun Quan had a good temper, he was polite to Zhou Yu and Lu Su, the world’s elites. Now that Fazheng is both a high-ranking ginseng and a guest (baab), Sun Quan should not be impulsive. But what could make this young lord more angry than to look down on Sun Quan’s heroic ambitions and think he was just a mediocre old-age person? Sun Quan felt greatly insulted. His face was ashen with anger, his words trembled, and he said angrily, “Uncle Liu is a hero in the world, is my Sun Quan a mediocre pensioner?” Yan Bi walked away without waiting for an answer.

That Lu Su panicked and said hurriedly: “Aiya! Sir, how can you say such a thing! It’s really rude… I asked you to persuade my master to resist Cao Cao, but you…” He sighed while flipping his sleeves. “How could you first persuade him to surrender Cao, and then insult my master…”

Fa Zheng laughed. This made Lu Su beside him confused and angry. That Fa Zheng said loudly: “Zijing, I brought a plan to resist Cao Cao, but your lord has no patience to listen, how can you blame me!”

Lu Su had no choice but to go to the inner room and tell Sun Quan the original words. Although Sun Quan has calmed down, Fazheng said these words, I am afraid it is not so simple. Hearing Lu Su’s explanation that he was bringing a strategy to retreat from the enemy, he hurriedly said, “Since that’s the case, it’s just an impulse, Zijing should go with me to see Mr. Fazheng again.” Lu Su breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly followed Sun Quan back. to the inner hall.

Seeing that Fazheng was still sitting there drinking tea, Sun Quan hurriedly stepped forward and said, “I was just impulsive. I hope Mr. Haihan, what are the strategies for resisting Cao Cao, please tell me quickly.”

Sun Quan really no longer wanted to surrender Cao Cao, but asked Fa Zheng to explain the policy of retreating Cao Cao. Fazheng struck while the iron was hot, and said, “Although Cao Cao’s army is strong, people from the north are not accustomed to water warfare. Besides, in the newly occupied Jingzhou many docks, many large ships are still under construction. This shows that Cao Cao has not done a good job. Preparations for a large-scale crossing of the river to attack Jiangdong.” Sun Quan nods his head again and again when he hears this, as expected. “The navy is less than 100,000 brave and good at fighting. The ships have been in Jingzhou for a long time, and many of them have fallen into disrepair. Now large ships are being built on a large scale. According to my judgment, Cao Cao is unable to launch a big attack this month, just to scare the general.” Fa Zheng said. He took a sip of tea, revealing a confident look. “Now Cao Cao wants to collect civilian ships along the river, and build ships day and night in the dock, indicating that there are not enough ships. People from the north are not familiar with water warfare, and the strength of the naval forces is not as good as that of Jiangdong. With all these things, Cao’s army will not be able to force Jiangdong for a few months. In the past two months, Not only can generals be able to do great things, but they can even defeat Cao Cao’s army. Prime Minister Luo Chen will also free up the main force, so Cao Cao will definitely retreat if he is attacked by the enemy.”

When Sun Quan heard this, Cao Cao couldn’t fight for two months, and Luochen would definitely find trouble for him after two months. According to this analysis, the Soochow navy swayed on the river for two months, and it was enough to deal with Cao Cao’s unprepared navy. .
