Chapter 270 Sun Quan: I have an idea
All the tactics used by Lu Meng in Ruxukou can be found in Jiaozhou Moon Bay. The only one that can be used is water warfare.
Although Gan Ning disdained Jiangdong's victory in the battle, he still admired Lu Meng's ability to understand.
Fu Shiren didn't know much about Jiaozhou, so Gan Ning didn't explain too much. Rather than stay in Ruxuwu and do nothing, Gan Ning had already begun to think about retreating.
Since Jiang Dong was so powerful, it seemed that he didn't need help. Gan Ning planned that the next time Jiang Dong came to work for the army, he asked Fu Shiren to come forward and resign.
After losing two battles in a row, Cao Cao was woken up from a dream by being given a slap on the head. These soldiers and horses in Jiangdong were not all softies. Looking at Lu Meng recorded in the Yangtze River News, there was a burning feeling on his face.
The content of the Yangtze Commentary and the actual experience are ironic. Jiang Dongbing could not defeat the unknown Lai Gong, but he bullied himself.
Cao Cao sat in the camp and carefully hammered his forehead. Whenever he became upset and angry, he would suffer from head wind.
Han Hao walked into the main tent and reported carefully: "My lord, the enemy general Ling Tong came to fight and insult again today. He also shot an arrow book before leaving..."
"Wen He, look at it for me..." Cao Cao covered his head.
The Book of Arrows was written by Lü Meng, and the content is generally about insulting Cao's army for being incompetent, but came to conquer far away but was in vain. There is also a relatively large section criticizing the eunuch's background.
Jia Xu has a strong psychological quality. After reading it carefully, he handed it over and replied: "The language in the letter is vulgar. It was Lu Meng who inspired us to fight. You don't need to pay attention to it..."
"Degui, how is the repair status of the warships in the village?" Cao Cao asked.
Cai Hao shook his head and sighed: "It was a mess during the retreat. Many of the damaged ships have not yet been repaired. The most important thing is that the military morale is currently slack..."
Cao Cao patted his thigh: "I didn't expect that after taking so long to prepare, I still couldn't defeat Sun Zhongmou's navy..."
Adviser Cheng Yu comforted him: "Since Sun Wentai, he has been training the navy, and it has been twenty years now. In terms of the eliteness of the navy, it is unmatched in the world. We still have to find ways to fight on land..."
"But Sun Quan's son is guarding Ruxukou. The water cannot defeat the infantry and cavalry, and there is no way they can get through. In addition, there is no chance of sneaking across from Dongguan on Ruxu Mountain..." Cao Cao was very depressed.
Seeing this, Jia Xu said: "Actually, our army's losses in the first two battles were limited, and our overall strength advantage is still very large. It is better to hold our troops for the time being and survey the terrain in detail. When Sun Quan can't vent his anger and expose his flaws, we can restore morale through two victories. As for Lu Meng's
Don't worry about provocative behavior."
Cao Cao nodded, "Wen He's words are very kind, but he was insulted by Lu Meng's son, and he was unwilling to be alone..."
Jia Xu continued: "Lu Meng can shoot arrows to disturb his mind, but we might as well treat him in his own way."
Cao Cao was curious when he heard this. He crossed his legs and asked doubtfully: "Come quickly."
"I guess Sun Quan has never seen such a good thing as the Yangtze River News. The Prime Minister might as well give it to him to know the world affairs. I believe that after reading Liao Li's comments, Sun Quan may not have other ideas. Even if the estrangement fails, he can still insult him.
." Jia Xu smiled darkly.
Cao Cao was delighted when he heard this and praised: "Wen Hezhen is a wise man. Although Sun Zhongmou is not as stupid as Ma Chao, I heard that his nature is cunning and suspicious. It is a clever plan to retaliate with the Yangtze River to disturb his mind."
Cao Cao's camp is backed by Qibao Mountain and faces Chaohu Lake. In this geographical location, Sun Quan cannot replicate the fire attack. The strength of Cao Cao's army is more than three times that of Jiangdong. It is very convenient to supply military supplies by water, so as long as he sticks to the camp, Sun Quan has no chance.
way.
During the confrontation between the two armies, Sun Quan kept sending warships to challenge him. Unfortunately, Cao Cao was as steady as an old dog, and neither side could do anything against the other.
In the first month of the eighteenth year of Jian'an, Sun Quan received the Changjiang Newspaper in Ruxuwu. The novel layout and typesetting made him curious. When he saw the comments of Changsha Prefect Liao Li, his face suddenly turned gloomy.
"Lord, what did Cao Cao say in the letter?" The ancients wrote concisely and to the point. Zhang Zhao was very curious when he saw that the letter was so big.
"This is not a letter from Cao Mengde. Take it and see for yourself." Sun Quan handed over the Yangtze River Report.
Zhang Zhao was very confused after reading it: "This thing seems to come from Jingzhou, and the whole story is about the past. What does Cao Cao mean?"
"Zi Bu, look carefully at the Yangtze River Commentary on the lower left." Sun Quan reminded.
Zhang Zhao stroked his beard and said: "Prefect Liao is right. We are occupying the right location to restrain Cao's army. Is it possible that Cao Cao wants to use this to mock him for not being able to hold on?"
"Didn't Zibu realize that Liao Li was mocking Ziming?" Sun Quan reminded him again.
Zhang Zhao was startled for a moment and explained with a smile: "Liu Bei and we are allies. I think Liao Li just stated the facts and did not mean to be sarcastic. Furthermore, what is the benefit of sarcastic Zi Ming? But I don't understand this Yangtze River News.
What’s the point of writing down past events?”
Sun Quan pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "The Changjiang Newspaper is produced by the Lingling Publishing House. Don't forget that the prefect of Lingling is Lantian. That guy is an insidious villain. He shouldn't play boring tricks. Can I help you go to Jiangxia to reinforce the army?"
Ask there, Fu Shiren should know this thing and understand its circumstances..."
"What's the reason this time?"
"Send me some more drinks. The twenty jars from last time should have been consumed."
"only."
Zhang Zhao used Jiangdong's light wine to open the way and got back words from Fu Shiren. Only then did he find out that the Yangtze River Newspaper was still being published, with the purpose of letting the people of Jingzhou know about world affairs, and it focused on the role of the "Yuedan Commentary".
Sun Quan fell into deep thought after learning the truth. Could it be that Lan Tian really wanted to create a "Yue Dan Commentary"?
"Why can Cao Cao get the Yangtze River News? But our allies don't?" Sun Quan was very confused.
Zhang Zhao said awkwardly: "My lord, Cao Cao and Liu Bei are mortal enemies. He has arranged a lot of spies in Jingzhou. How can we have time to inquire about Jingzhou's affairs? Besides, you haven't contacted Miss for a long time, so you don't know what's going on there."
..”
Sun Quan was stunned, and Zhang Zhao hurriedly shut up.
Sun Quanxin said that the old guy insinuated that I did not care about family ties. My married daughter threw water away. My younger sister does not regard herself as a member of the Sun family. How can I have the energy to care about it?
"Zi Bu, how do you think the Yangtze River News selects news? Will the Ruxu battle with Cao Cao be recorded?" Sun Quan asked curiously.
"Uh... It's hard to say. It stands to reason. I heard that the past few issues were basically related to Cao Cao's victory or defeat..." Zhang Zhao analyzed.
Sun Quan nodded affirmatively, then stood up and carried it on his back, thinking about whether he could make a name for himself? One thousand copies per issue is very powerful. Cao Cao cannot always be allowed to show off his power and promote himself as an ally.
People came to Liao Li to do some work.
After Sun Quan made up his mind, he immediately called Lu Su and Lu Meng and threatened to visit Cao Ying personally.
Lu Su quickly admonished: "My lord, even though Cao Cao suffered a small defeat, he must not go into danger personally."
