After Zhou Yu received Zhuge Liang's secret letter, he really hesitated, and after a day of thinking, Zhou Yu made a decision.For the time being, the troops were stationed outside Yizhou, even if there were spies from the Zhao army, Zhou Yu dared to say that the soldiers were not adaptable, and temporarily led troops to be stationed here to confront Liu Bei's Shu army.Secretly, Zhou Yu wrote another letter, ordering Ling Tong to personally send it to Sun Quan in Jingzhou, report the matter to Sun Quan word for word, and inform Sun Quan of his decision.Sun Quan did not have any objection to Zhou Yu's decision, just because Sun Quan believed in Zhou Yu's decision very much, and did not give Zhou Yu any reply, but just asked Ling Tong to convey to Zhou Yu that everything in the future of Jiangdong would be in his hands Zhou Yu, as long as he Zhou Yu felt that it was right, he just let it go.As for all Jiangdong's remarks, he Sun Quan will handle them, and he Sun Quan will fight for Zhou Yu and fully support Zhou Yu's decision-making.Although Zhou Yu received Zhuge Liang's letterhead and knew that what he said about Zhao Yu was true, Zhou Yu was not an unassertive person, and he would never go against Zhao Yu just because of Zhuge Liang's letter.After all, one Zhao Yu is far more powerful than a Wei State and a Shu State, and Zhou Yu, who is good at scheming, will definitely not bury the entire Jiangdong in his own hands because of a momentary negligence.At the moment, Zhou Yu is just waiting for one thing, that is, he will play and do what he asked when he formed an alliance with Zhao Yu, but he will not do it for the time being.If the Zhao army took the initiative to withdraw its troops once Xiliang captured Xiliang, then Zhou Yu would not hesitate to march into Yizhou and attack Liu Bei's Shu State.If Zhao Yu intends to raise troops to the south after capturing Xiliang, then Zhou Yu will definitely fight against the Zhao army together with the Shu Alliance.It can be said that between Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu, a kind of gambling agreement has been formed invisibly, once the Zhao army does not wave its troops south after obtaining Xiliang, then Shu will face a war with Jiangdong.If the Zhao army continued to move south once Xiliang was obtained, Zhou Yu would give up the conquest of Yizhou, and instead would ally with the Shu army to fight against the Zhao army.Unconsciously, Zhuge Liang became very distressed, and sometimes hoped that the Zhao army would attack him, so that the B army would not have to go to war with Eastern Wu.But no one wants to be beaten, so Zhuge Liang doesn't want the Zhao army to go south, but once this happens, Zhou Yu will definitely lead his troops to attack, and the Shu army will still have to face a war at that time.Although it is said that being an enemy of Eastern Wu is obviously better than being an enemy of the Zhao army, the strength of the Zhao army must be several times that of Eastern Wu.But Zhuge Liang would rather ally with Eastern Wu and be the enemy of the Zhao army, which seems that Zhuge Liang is a little stupid, but Zhuge Liang is also carefully calculated.With Zhuge Liang's intelligence, it is not difficult for him to think that it is very likely that after the Zhao army takes Xiliang, he will reorganize his army and wait for the opportunity, and when the second army starts a war with Eastern Wu, he will reap the benefits of the fisherman, or take the opportunity to attack from both sides.At that time, the Shu army not only fought with Eastern Wu, but also had to suffer from the back, even if it was in the armistice alliance with Eastern Wu later, it would suffer a lot of losses.Therefore, Zhuge Liang gave up the opportunity to get along with Zhao Jun at the beginning, and even in order to be able to lure Zhao Jun south, Zhuge Liang thought of an alliance with Wei early on.It's just that I didn't expect that this time Wei took the initiative to open the armistice alliance first, and Shu would also turn passive into active.Liu Bei suddenly opened his mouth and asked Zhuge Liang: "Prime Minister, this time the Wei State took the initiative to make an alliance with our Shu State, and ceded half of Hanzhong to belong to our country.And after Fa Zhengyi had a dialogue with Wang Lang, the Sikong of Wei, he hurriedly agreed that Wei would withdraw its troops into our Shu State and fight against the Zhao army with it.You say, will this be a little too hasty, do you want the Wei army to resist the attack of the Zhao army in Xiliang first, and thus consume the main force of the Zhao army, our army will join forces with it to break Zhao, wouldn't it greatly reduce the losses of our army" Zhuge Liang hurriedly bowed to Liu Bei and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Wei has been attacked by the Zhao army's three-way soldiers and horses before, and it can be said that there are heavy casualties.With the current strength of the Wei State, even if the strength of the whole country is gathered, I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist the attack of the Zhao army, and if the Wei State is allowed to fight with the Zhao army at this time, then it will immediately face the danger of losing the country. ”"When the time comes, all the remaining soldiers and civilians of Wei will become prisoners of the Zhao army, and even become cannon fodder for the Zhao army to attack our Shu country.Once received, it will be arranged to the land of our Shu State immediately, so that it can be integrated into the people of our Shu Kingdom, and these people will be the human resources of our Shu State in the future, and the cultivation of grain and the recruitment of troops will be doubled. ”Zhuge Liang's words can be said to have made Liu Bei wake up a lot, although Liu Bei wanted to ignore Wei at first, but when he heard that the two major humerus of Shu State, one Fazheng and one Zhuge Liang's military division had a common decision, which was enough to show the correctness of this matter.Especially when he heard Zhuge Liang's analysis, it was almost similar to the meaning in Fa Zhengxin, so Liu Bei no longer had any worries, and immediately said to Zhuge Liang: "The military division is responsible for docking with the Wei army on the front line and discussing the acceptance of the alliance, and for the people of Wei to enter our Shu to take over, Prime Minister Lao Cheng is in charge of this matter." ”"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the minister will definitely do his best to supervise this matter."
Zhuge Liang's voice lagged behind, and he couldn't help but be silent for a while, as if he had something to say in his heart.Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang have had a relationship between monarchs and ministers for many years, how could they not see Zhuge Liang's intentions, and immediately asked casually: "The prime minister seems to have something in his heart, why don't you say it directly." ”I only heard Zhuge Liang say to him: "Back to Your Majesty, this time, because of the Zhao army, our army and the Wei army have an armistice alliance, and they intend to resist the Zhao army together.In addition, the minister thought that he should also send a person, and it was necessary to go to Jingzhou to lobby with Zhou Yu of Dongwu.First, inform the other party of the war between the Wei army and the Zhao army, and discuss the alliance between the two armies with them by the way; Second, let's also explore Zhou Yu's tone to see how hot he is about the alliance with our army.If Eastern Wu and our army really had the intention of alliance, our army would not have to take care of the end in such a way, and could transfer part of the army to the Hanzhong area to defend against the attack of the Zhao army at all times.In addition, recently, our army's front line has taken over the Wei army's camps in many places, and the manpower of the military division Fa Zheng, as well as the two generals Guan Yu and Huang Zhong, I am afraid that it will be difficult to deal with it, and we still need to send several people to support. ”After Liu Bei heard this, he couldn't help but nodded and said: "Well, what the prime minister said makes sense, whether it is to go to Dongwu to see Zhou Yu, or to send people to Hanzhong, these two things should not be neglected, but I don't know if the prime minister has a suitable candidate in his heart, it is better to listen to me." ”Zhuge Liang immediately arched his hand at Liu Bei and said: "It is necessary to send an envoy to Eastern Wu unless the prince is Fei Yi, you can make the Ba County Taishou Yan Yan go with him, General Yan Yan led the soldiers and horses to sit in the land of Ba County, and Fei Yi went from Ba County to Jingzhou South County to talk with Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu's army was stationed in Nan County. ”Immediately, no one below was surprised, only to hear Zhuge Liang say again: "As for going to Hanzhong for assistance, Wei Yan, Zhang Bao, E Huan, Ma Liang, and Ma Jian can lead 30,000 troops and horses to join Fazheng and Guan Yu, and all military forces will obey Fazheng's orders." ”After hearing this, Liu Bei immediately read: "Okay, just act according to the prime minister's words."
Feng Feiyi was sent to Soochow as the captain of Zhaoxin to discuss and negotiate with Zhou Yu.Wei Yan, Zhang Bao, E Huan, Ma Liang, and Ma Jian led 30,000 troops and horses to the land of Hanzhong to join Fazheng and Guan Yu. ”With Liu Bei's order, the fate of Shu began to have a major turning point, that is, the upper Wei State and the lower Eastern Wu, the three armies jointly officially confronted the Zhao army.Whether it is life or death, it depends on the union of the three armies, Liu Bei does not believe that with Cao Pi's Wei State, his own Shu State, and Sun Quan's Eastern Wu, the gathering of the three armies does not believe that he Zhao Yu can fight.In a certain city mansion of Si Lizuo Feng Yi, a cadre of people and others sat together, and one of the sergeants was reporting something, "Your Majesty, King Zhao, this is a secret letter sent by the front military advisor Guo Sima, I heard that the soldiers in front sent a message that our Zhao army has three routes of soldiers and horses to surround Xiliang, and the three routes of the Wei army that resisted our army can be said to be completely annihilated." ”This time it was Zhao Yu, the king of Zhao, who sat and listened to the report, and Liu Xie, the son of the Han Dynasty sitting on the side, and the following generals and ministers were all elite generals of the Zhao army.Immediately, when Zhao Yu opened Guo Jia's letter, he looked at the beautiful font on it, which was indeed written by Guo Jia himself, and the letter explained in detail the recent exploits of the soldiers and horses of the three routes.In particular, Guo Jia mentally counted the combat exploits of each army, such as which general killed the general of the Wei army, who he captured and surrendered, how many enemy troops he annihilated, how many enemy troops he surrendered, how many people he released, how many people he recruited, and some armor materials, which can be described as a very detailed list.Especially when Zhao Yu took Guo Jia's letter and read it in public: "On the first road, the army led by Ma Chao and Lu Xun killed the enemy generals Han Family Five Tigers, as well as Cao Chun and Cao Xiu, the tiger and leopard cavalry commanders of the Wei army, and captured tens of thousands of soldiers.The second army, led by Wang Shizi and Xu Shu, killed the enemy general Guo Huai, captured the enemy soldiers Manzhong, Yu Ban, Zhang He, Yang Xiu, Mao Jue, Cui Yan, and tens of thousands of sergeants.The third route army, led by Zhao Yun and Guo Jia, killed the enemy generals Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Sijie, and captured Jia Xu and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. ”This set of simple data can be said to be constantly discussed among everyone, you must know that Cao Chun and Cao Xiu, who were killed by the first army, are the commanders of the tiger and leopard cavalry, which are famous generals, plus the five tigers of the Han family, a total of seven generals of the Wei army were killed.Although the Second Route Army only killed one person, it captured five Wei generals, and its merit was by no means smaller than that of the First Route Army.Looking at the third route soldier and horse Wei army general Xiahou Yuan was beheaded, this is a big fish in the Wei State that can shake three points with a stomp, plus the capture of the poisoner Jia Xu, which makes everyone can't help but be shocked
