Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2591 People are good and new
People are always changing.

In this world, all people have a process from birth to growth, then to maturity, and finally to decline, and anything in this process will determine the future direction of this person.

Except Fei Qian.

If someone traces Fei Qian's life trajectory in detail, he will find that he has a very strong sense of tearing, and the first half of his life cannot support such a big change in his later period.

In fact, there are many people who have such a sense of tearing in history. They really need to pursue everything in the Ganges, and history will not develop into the way it is in later generations.For example, Xiang Yu was trapped, the soldiers were exhausted, and the morale of the army was lost. According to the thinking of those gangsters in the Ganges, it should be reasonable to capture them without fighting, but under such a weak situation, Xiang Yu led three thousand soldiers and almost killed them. Surrounded by so many generals of Liu Bang!

There is also the great magician Liu Xiu.

But it is obvious that Sun Quan has no adventures now, so he can only bear it.

He is not a genius, he has no way to break out of the siege like Xiang Yu, he can't summon a meteor to fall like Liu Xiu, and he can't have thousands of years of information accumulation like Fei Qian, so he can only rely on himself Experience, step by step growth.

In a dynasty, there will always be some outstanding leaders, but at the same time, there are more mediocre ones.

Sun Quan's ability is not too bad, nor is it very good.

It's just that Sun Quan himself didn't recognize this before.

Until his support is destroyed.

Only by facing the wind and rain can he truly realize the cruelty of the world and understand the danger of the world.And these evils often existed in the nagging of their parents and in their perfunctory verbal responses before, and they were never really taken to heart.

Even if Zhou Yu didn't come to report, Sun Quan still knew the news from the outside world through some channels.

Zhou Yu came here just to show his attitude to the outside world, and also to show his loyalty to Sun Quan, so that the Sun family can rest assured.From this point of view, Sun Quan had to bow his head to express his gratitude, and respectfully called Zhou Yu "Captain Governor".

Now, he is no longer qualified to play a small temper...

All small things must be hidden away.

Sun Quan watched Zhou Yu's back disappear, and went back with his head down.

Although Sun Quan said that he would keep his filial piety for three years, in most cases it would be half a year, or about a year, and then he would come out of the mountain under the repeated invitations of Jiangdong officials.

Before that, Sun Quan, Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao and the others, as well as all the noble families in Jiangdong, had to see Sun Quan's changes and then accept Sun Quan again, otherwise, there would definitely be changes.

Sun Quan is like forging a sword now.

Remelted and recast.

Take heaven and earth as the furnace.

Suffering in the world is fuel.

Drumming his own emotions, the hammer fell on the anvil, and the fire splattered.

On the other side, Lu Su waited for Zhou Yu at the foot of the mountain, and walked together after Zhou Yu went down the mountain.

Suddenly, some light rain began to fall in the sky. It wasn't heavy, but it stained the surrounding area with moisture.

The rain in early spring is somewhat cold.

After entering the city, Lu Su said, "I'll let Pao Ding kill the sheep, let's have a drink together." 』

Zhou Yu nodded.

Jiangdong's economic recovery is reflected in many aspects.

Ordinary people are like weeds, as long as they are relieved a little, they will flourish.The planting and breeding industries have also recovered a lot, and cattle and sheep are not as scarce as they were in the previous stage.

Of course, for people like Zhou Yu and Lu Su, there is nothing wrong with eating some cattle and sheep.

It was drizzling.

Zhou Yu and Lu Su sat in the courtyard, waiting for the cook to cook the sheep.

The entourage first served some drinks and side dishes, and then withdrew.

Lu Su poured wine for Zhou Yu himself, and the two had a drink.

"How is your lord feeling?" ’ Lu Su asked.

Zhou Yu stroked the wine glass, "It's okay. 』

Lu Su was silent for a while, "How will the governor deal with Sun Zhonglang?" 』

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that there are still some people in the Sun family who are jumping around, and the happiest one is Sun Hao.

Zhou Yu was putting side dishes into his small bowl. Hearing Lu Su's words, his movements stiffened a little, and then he returned to normal, saying, "That's something my lord should figure out and deal with." 』

Lu Su nodded and said, "But this is a hidden danger after all. 』

Zhou Yu didn't answer.

"Then... the orphan of Bo Fu..." Lu Su said again, "This matter also needs to be dealt with..."

Zhou Yu put down his chopsticks, looked up at Lu Su and said, "This matter... I don't think the lord did it... Why, you also suspect that the lord did it?" 』

"I don't think my lord will be like this," Lu Su picked up the vegetables in the bean dish and served them to Zhou Yu, "But the problem is, this matter is very troublesome.very troublesome……"

Lu Su emphasized.

Zhou Yu was silent.

There is a drizzle in the sky, flying randomly in the spring breeze.

Some stick to the leaves, some float into the eaves.

Lu Su's courtyard is not too remote, through the wall faintly, you can still hear the voices of people in the distant market.

Zhou Yu didn't seem to hear Lu Su's words, just looked up at the drizzle falling from the sky quietly, and after watching for a long time, he said slowly: "Prime Minister Cao, I killed many people in Xu County before..."

Lu Su frowned, rolled his eyes, understood Zhou Yu's meaning, and was about to say something, but saw two or three attendants walking around from the kitchen in the backyard carrying a pot of mutton soup, and kept silent.

The mutton soup was steaming white.

There seems to be some warm breath in the drizzle.

Lu Su waved his hand to let the servants back down, and he personally scooped up mutton for Zhou Yu in the soup kettle.

Zhou Yu poured wine into Lu Su's wine bowl, and without waiting for Lu Su to answer the last question, he said directly: "Is this mutton soup cooked according to the method of hussars?" 』

Lu Su smiled and nodded, "Hussars are not only good at military affairs, but also good at gourmet food. Chang'an Sanfu, Qiang boiled Hu Zhi, bread buns, all can make people sigh that the belly is too small, and there are so many delicacies." . 』

Zhou Yu laughed, and suddenly said: "Then look at this world, who will fall into it?" 』

Lu Su froze for a moment, "How can I be sure about such a major event in the world?" 』

Zhou Yu took a sip of the mutton soup slowly, "The situation in the world is gradually divided...Moreover, the big men have been fighting for a long time... You can see Jiangdong, no one likes to fight. As long as there is no war, people's livelihood will immediately improve Get up... the big man has already shed a lot of blood, including the Sun family, if the fight continues, the big man will have no winners. 』

Lu Su was silent for a long time.

The two drank soup silently.

The mutton soup is delicious, but the wine seems to be weak.

It's like eating an apple and then eating something else and it feels like something is sour.

The two ate in silence, a little silently, and did not drink too much wine. It was not until the mutton in the pot was almost exhausted and the soup bottomed out that Zhou Yu spoke again.

"The battle of the Han Dynasty involves a lot of things. It is no longer a city and a place, or the Xiliang Guanzhong, Shandong, Hebei, etc. The longer the battle, the more impetuous the people's hearts..." Zhou Yu said slowly, " Then the pain will be deeper and deeper, and it may not be forgotten by the last few generations... and it will not be possible to restore the original grand occasion of the big man...』

"After all, the Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven. Without the Son of Heaven, there would be no great man." Zhou Yu looked at Lu Su and said, "The hussars are very skilled, and the prime minister is not bad either. After all, there will be a big battle between the two of them."And now, it's time for Jiangdong to choose...』

Jiangdong can choose, or not choose.

Of course not choosing is actually a choice at some point.

"The guys in Jiangdong are not fools," Zhou Yu sighed, "but that's exactly what happened, so they don't want to suffer.But here lies the problem... In the world, is there any thing that can not suffer a loss, but only gain a profit?Even if it is profitable in the short term, what about the long run? 』

Lu Su also sighed: "But most people can only see the benefits in front of them. 』

Zhou Yu raised his head and looked into the distance, "That's why I admire hussars. 』

Lu Su glanced at Zhou Yu, and found that Zhou Yu had a longing look on his face.And this look, Lu Su had seen before.That was when Lu Su came back from Guanzhong and told Zhou Yu what he had seen. At that time, Zhou Yu also showed almost the same expression as now.

Perhaps Zhou Yu's admiration was because Huqi did what Zhou Yu originally wanted to do?
or even better...

"Captain..." Lu Su said slowly, "But Jiangdong, after all, Jiangdong.It’s as if everyone in the world knows that Prime Minister Cao has held the emperor hostage, and the emperor has never had real authority... some things... really don’t just depend on me...』

Zhou Yu lowered his head, his eyes turned cold: "These silverfish... Even if there is some inconspicuous commotion, I will get rid of them in the shortest time..."

Lu Su asked: "Even if it is a member of the Sun family?" 』

Zhou Yu was silent for a while, "I said, Prime Minister Cao killed many people before..."

...(*`ェ*)...

Cochin.

The Nanhai Protectorate of the Han Dynasty.

Hehe, of course, this name was given to him by Liu Bei himself, and he didn't report it.

It's like a small company in a corner in the later generations has also established a name of the president of the board of directors.

Nanhai Governor's Mansion, um, for the time being, just to give Uncle Liu some face, let's call it that, it is under the Cochin Governor's Mansion, and is mainly responsible for fishery production and maritime transportation.

After all, Cochin has less land and more insects.

If the three Liu Bei brothers hadn’t learned a lot of tricks to deal with insects in Sichuan and Shu before, I’m afraid they would have been “the collapse of the middle way” halfway, so Liu Bei sometimes thought of Fei Qian’s meaningful smile in Sichuan and Shu , suddenly a little shuddered, could it be said that Fei Qian at that time was already planning to let them come to have intercourse?
Liu Bei didn't dare to think too much, and felt that he was too cold to panic.

The Nanhai Protectorate's Mansion is different from the doomed enclosures of later generations to build houses. Liu Bei mainly prefers to supplement the development of Jiaozhi with fisheries...

After establishing a business relationship with Jiangdong, Jiaozhi's spices, fish maw, shells and other special products will naturally have a relatively close market. You only need to go up the coastline and send it to the future Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas. It is much more convenient to go north to Sichuan and Sichuan by land.

Although Sun Quan's filial piety is equivalent to self-confinement, "trade" is innocent, and all ethnic groups in Jiangdong can benefit from it. Naturally, there is no reason to cut off the caravan just because Sun Quan can't make the decision.

After Liu Bei occupied Jiaozhi, he also reached a certain agreement with the surrounding indigenous fishermen, that is, Liu Bei would purchase some fishermen's catches, of course not only limited to pearl corals, but also some ordinary fish, shrimps and crabs to eat.

Of course, because there is no refrigerator, here in Jiaozhi, whether it is the indigenous fishermen or Liu Bei and others, it takes three days to fish and two days to dry the nets. When it rains, everything will be useless, and it must be rotten with maggots.

Zhang Fei doesn't like fish.Zhang Fei felt that those fish were thugs, each of them wanted to murder him, and they would hide bones in such thin meat every now and then, accidentally sticking them in their throats.It can't be compared with pork at all, let alone braised pork knuckles.

Guan Yu was fine, but eating fish stained his beard, and the fishy smell was not easy to get rid of.

Zhang Fei also didn't like to dangle on the boat. He felt nervous when he got on the boat, thinking that he might fall into the water in a second.

Guan Yu was able to adapt, and he could sit on the bow of the boat and read a book even if he had nothing to do.

Then myopia got worse...

"Second brother! ’Zhang Fei held on tightly to the side of the boat, his fingers were hard and his feet were also struggling, ‘How long will it take to get there? 』

Guan Yu looked away from the book, and then glanced at Zhang Fei, "Third brother, relax a bit, if you keep pinching, we will be changing the handrail again...in two days, ah, it will be there in two days." 』

"That's what you said two days ago..." Zhang Fei murmured, but he let go of his tight grip, then leaned on the wooden wall, moved to Guan Yu's side, and sat down. "I feel fishy all over my body now... I'm going to be a fisherman..."

Guan Yu put down the book, untied the bag that wrapped his beard, and looked at some salt flowers, but there was nothing he could do, he could only wrap it again with some distress, and hung the strap around his neck, "Then What do you think should be done? 』

"I am a butcher!Butcher!Otherwise, it would be like killing a pig!Killing pigs like killing people!Tu Deqian... Ah, hi!It's really..." Zhang Fei stood up a little angrily, and just said a few generous words, then a wave came over, the body of the boat shook, his face turned pale, and he quickly sat down.

"What happened to the fisherman? Guan Yu said slowly, "This place doesn't eat fish, so where can there be so much meat?"Big brother can eat it with peace of mind, but you can't?Besides, every time you share pork, don't you get more points? 』

"Hi! 』Zhang Fei also knew that both Liu Bei and Guan Yu gave him extra care, but because he was too greedy, and the quantity was not large, the meat would shrink, and it would become smaller after cooking, and he didn’t taste much after one bite. The taste is gone.

"It is said that the road leading to Sichuan and Sichuan has been widened, so we have traveled a lot. The next time a caravan comes, it will bring more bacon..." Guan Yu comforted Zhang Fei, "Maybe I will bring some piglets." Coming with the lamb, I just don’t know if I can survive on the road, um, I don’t know if I can adapt to the weather here...』

"Yeah, sure! Zhang Fei said firmly without even thinking about it, "We can adapt, so can pigs and sheep!" 』

Guan Yu frowned slightly, and wanted to give Zhang Fei something, but he couldn't bear to see Zhang Fei drooling and grinning, so he pretended that he didn't hear Zhang Fei's last words.

In the distance, a large building boat, um, it's actually a fishing boat, is sailing west with its sails open.

That is the "Zhuojun".

Um.That's right, it's the name of Liu Bei's hometown.

"Zhuojun" is performing its third mission after its birth.Since he first went to Jiangdong, the ship has hardly stopped for a day.

Of course, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were on the "Hedong".

The boat of the third brother Zhang Fei is still under construction, but the name of the boat gave Zhang Fei a headache for a long time.Because Zhang Fei and Liu Bei's prefectures are the same, Zhang Fei said at the beginning that he wanted the "Butcher", but was rejected by Liu Bei and Guan Yu...

It's still undecided.

Zhang Fei was also very hesitant. Although he didn't like being on the boat, he felt like a child of his own, and it was better to have a loud and impressive name.

Around the "Zhuojun" and "Hedong", there are four or five small boats, forming a small fleet, slowly moving forward about ten miles from the coast.

"Notice! ”The soldiers on the watchtower crane shouted loudly, “Three large ships and several small boats are found ahead!No banner, no banner! 』

With the shouts of the soldiers in charge of watching, Guan Yu's face suddenly became serious.

With the business activities and frequent exchanges, this commercial road has naturally encountered some unknown forces.

In fact, China is not what most people think. Only Zheng He in the Ming Dynasty went to the West. In fact, during the time of Qin Shihuang, Mr. Yingzheng went to sea.During the period of Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty, he also sent the left general Xun Zhi, um, yes, this is the pig, to send troops from the west of Liaoxi, and Yang Pu, the general of the ship army, led 5 water troops across the Bohai Sea. Weiman Korea established four counties on the Korean peninsula.

Of course, later generations of Bangzi will not recognize this...

After Guangwu Zhongxing, the main political forces were placed on land, and the attention to the ocean was insufficient. Therefore, there has been no historian to understand and record the forces on the ocean until Sun Dadi sent people to Ryukyu and Wanwan. .

At that time, there were already quite a large population in Ryukyu and Wanwan. Of course, these populations would not stay on land, relying on mountains to eat mountains, and relying on seas to eat seas.Now, Cochin Liu Bei has invaded these areas and controlled the original trade routes. How could these people willingly give up?

As the warning gong on the ship was sounded, the soldiers on the building quickly took their positions.Many soldiers began to pour wet sand on the deck.

In this era, arson is always an important offensive method in naval warfare.

『Send a boat forward and ask about the situation! Guan Yu commanded in a deep voice, "Archers get ready!"In addition, the crossbow is wound!Target the enemy ship! 』

On the "Zhuojun" and "Hedong", there are large-scale ballistas equipped, not many, only one for each ship, but at the moment, it is the only ultra-long-range means of killing.

A qualified ballista has a range of up to a thousand steps. Of course, it is difficult to be accurate at that distance, especially when there is wind on the sea.But at about three hundred steps, the power of the crossbow gun is still very strong. At one or two hundred steps, it can even directly pierce the side plate of the ship. At the same time, you can also use the ballista to launch some javelins, stone bombs, and incendiary bombs. wait for something.

In ancient wars, the ancient Roman legion, which used the most ballistas, each equipped with more than 50 ballistas.

Of course, some savages will say that this is not in the Ganges...

The ballista redesigned and manufactured by Fei Qian's Huang's workshop is somewhat different from the ancient Roman ballista. Due to the development of metallurgical technology, the new ballista uses more bronze and steel components, compared with the wooden ballista. For a car, it is more powerful and less difficult to maintain.

"The enemy ship did not respond!They are speeding up! 』

The ships ahead shouted loudly, gesticulated, and used double red flags representing danger.

The other party came with the wind, full of sails again, very fast.

"Daoshield step forward!Get ready for battle! 』

Guan Yu gave the order, and then looked at Zhang Fei, "Third brother, you are not... Forget it, be careful when you use Zhang Ba, don't smash your own boat..."

Zhang Fei laughed loudly, and shook his spear vigorously, "Second brother, don't worry!" 』

Perhaps it was the first encounter at sea since Guangwu of the great Han Dynasty, and it started here...
