The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

Chapter 294 Compared with Han Xin, Zhou Yu is not easy to be a famous general through the ages!

Xi Yu gritted her teeth and stared at the other party, suddenly feeling a little itchy in her hand.

"Yeah, I have a mahjong competition, and I hold several games here every year—"

Before he finished speaking, Dian Wei felt a little weak suddenly when he felt many angry eyes around him.

But even so, he still retorted: "The soldiers in the army often have martial arts competitions. Why can't I have a mahjong competition? I can't win if I fight you, and I can't fight the common people?"

"Besides, I will give pen rewards to everyone who participates in the mahjong competition!"

Xi Yu looked at those elderly women walking tremblingly on the shore with all their teeth missing, and then looked at Dian Wei, who was thick and rough around him, and couldn't help stretching out his hand and scolding: "You bastard... ···Even such an elderly person--"

"I'm not! I've never played mahjong with an old lady!"

Dian Wei explained incoherently, and couldn't help crying in his heart, saying that these old people usually don't take them out in Xuzhou, why are they gathered here in large numbers today?

Isn't this looking for nothing for yourself?

"Tsk tsk tsk, I really didn't expect that you, an old boy, have such hobbies."

Xi Yu said with emotion, while Huang Xu approached him maliciously, showing a strange look on his face, and jokingly said: "Speaking of which, uncle, your hobby is quite special. You really deserve to be the only one of our big man who is still alive. A person with the posthumous title of General!"

"Go away, you little bastard, you dare to read my jokes? Are you looking for smoke?"

Dian Wei blew his beard and stared at Huang Xu.

Jia Ji hurriedly sent someone down to inquire about the situation under the signal of his father.

Guo Jia was dressed in a short shirt, with a ponytail tied behind his head, and a wine gourd in his hand, looking like a knight-errant.

He leaned on the deck, drank wine, and said with a smile: "Dian Wei, how did you manage it? You made such old people come to complain, could it be that some soldiers robbed them of food? Or family?"

As soon as these words came out, Dian Wei, who was planning to continue catching people and scolding him, became limp, and his face suddenly turned extremely pale.

It seems that there is really such a possibility!
Damn, I'm afraid I'm going to be tricked to death!

Unlike other generals, his subordinates are all dead soldiers.

A dead man, as the name suggests, lives for the master. As long as the master has an order, you must carry it out, even if it calls you to commit suicide.

Of course, the gap between such a person and ordinary soldiers is also quite different.

Since he is always doing things under the threat of death, his skills and brains are of course far beyond comparison.

Therefore, special preferential treatment is given to them in terms of resettlement and pension.

Not to mention money, housing, and even family members, even personal behavior is more unrestricted than ordinary people.

If the elderly on both sides of the strait are suffering or wronged because of them, I'm afraid things will really be a big deal.

If it spreads in the future, it doesn't matter if I don't do it as a general, after all... I will lose all face!

"My lord, I made a mistake in the end, please forgive me!"

Before waiting for the news from the underlings to come up, Dian Wei suddenly fell to his knees with a thud, holding Xi Yu's thigh tightly with both hands, and said earnestly: "Thousands of mistakes, all the mistakes of the last general, please forgive me, my lord." sin!"

Xi Yu frowned, but didn't say a word.

Could it be that the old people outside were really wronged because of Dianwei's ineffective governance?
Shouldn't it?
According to historical records, Dian Wei is a loyal man who hates evil like an enemy, so he should be someone who would not do such things.

But if he hadn't done anything worthy of his conscience, why would he admit his mistake so quickly?

"You rascal, what the hell did you do?"

Xi Yu's expression was solemn, and he growled in a cold voice, "Why don't you invite me as soon as possible?"

"This·······"

Seeing that the lord was so strict, Dian Wei was very flustered, but at this moment his mind was empty and he didn't know what to say at all.

"I... I didn't do anything? I don't know how things turned out like this!"

"However, since this matter happened within the area under my jurisdiction, it is natural to apologize first."

When Xi Yu heard this, his serious face couldn't hold back immediately.

The corners of his eyes couldn't stop twitching, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Fortunately, the person Jia Ji sent to inquire about the news came back in time, and soon came back with sacks all over his body and boat.

There were also a few black knights who followed him, and they all came back with smiles on their faces, very happy.

"Hahaha, my lord, those common people have not suffered any injustice. They just heard that you will pass by this place, so I came here to pay a visit to express my gratitude and respect."

"Besides, there are quite a few people who know that you are going to be married to Jiang Dong, so they specially prepared some things from home as congratulatory gifts."

"Those things are not something I can hold. Please send a big boat to the lord. I'm afraid it won't be able to hold those things!"

After hearing this, Xi Yu blinked her eyes, her heart froze for a moment, and then she was surrounded by an inexplicable warmth.

By the way, these ancient people... are quite cute!

"Look, I just said that I didn't make any mistakes. If you insist on wronging me, I really am..."

While Xi Yu was still immersed in that warmth, Dian Wei stood up abruptly, looking at the crowd with rather sad eyes.

Everyone gave him a blank look and ignored him. According to the lord, this is a showman!
Soon, under Xi Yu's signal, the two huge boats behind them, together with the one everyone was riding on, slowly drove towards the embankment.

After watching from a close distance, everyone finally understood why it was said to send a building boat to load things.

Speaking of building ships, they were originally one of the largest warships in the world, and with the improvements made by the Design Institute and others, they are now several times larger than building ships in other places, and their carrying capacity has been increased. , also has some attack and defense performance.

Thousands of soldiers went back and forth between the shore and the big boats, and they used this kind of big boats to load the congratulatory gifts of the people. Finally, it took more than half an hour to load all the congratulatory gifts. This shows how enthusiastic the local people are.

Standing on the deck, Xi Yu looked at the people who had been refusing to leave, slowly raised his hands, and bowed deeply while clasping his fists in salute.

The two big boats of congratulatory gifts may be common or insignificant to him, but to the local people, they are the best they can present.

He has to accept and respect this kindness!

It wasn't until the building where Xi Yu was located completely disappeared from everyone's sight that the people on both sides of the strait supported each other to get up from the ground and gradually dispersed.

"Bong Xiao."

At nightfall, Xi Yu, who was hosting a banquet on the deck, leaned against the railing alone, looking at the afterglow that was about to disappear on the coastline in the distance, Si Lin said: "You said, the people of Qingxu and Xu under my governance, Is life right now?"

"Why not?"

Guo Jia looked at the person he was willing to regard as the master, and smiled calmly: "Master, you know, what did I say when I left Yuan Benchu's camp?"

"He is not the master! Although most of the clan at that time thought Yuan Benchu ​​was proud of him, but in fact he was just a fool who wasted talents, and he had no way to control his subordinates and was incompetent."

"In my opinion, to be the lord of the world, you must do things for the people from the heart. The superficial kindness and generosity can confuse the people of the world for a while, but not for a lifetime!"

"My lord, you are different. When you make any decision, you will put the people first. You want to treat them well from the bottom of your heart, fundamentally change the lives of the people, and make them rich. ,stable."

"Only those who can do this are worthy of being called the master of the world!"

"In fact, the lives of the people in Qingzhou and Xuzhou today have far surpassed those in other regions at this time."

"Xiliang and Yanzhou are currently in war. The perennial melee has left the local people homeless. They can only struggle on the death line and struggle to survive. In Jingzhou in the south, the Sun and Liu families look like a happy show on the surface. There is no conflict."

"But in fact, as long as there is a brain, it is clear that the two forces are secretly turbulent."

"If Liu Bei can occupy Jingzhou and not return it, then Sun Quan will be able to lead his troops into the inland river and attack Jingzhou during the flood season after autumn. Liu Bei will definitely rise up and resist in order to protect himself."

"It is expected that by the fall of this year, Nanfang will fall into a melee. Only our two places, Qingxu and Xu, seem like a paradise. In recent years, the internal affairs have been stable. Not only can we expand our borders and territories, but we can also develop agriculture and commerce internally."

"While fighting the enemy, we can also vigorously develop foreign trade, transport the special products, food and even discarded military supplies in the territory to other princes, and make crazy money and all the rare treasures in this world."

"In addition to these, the development of food, ordnance, science and technology, farming and other technologies stored in our territory is far beyond that of other regions."

"I may not believe it if I say it. What you said before, like the economic base determines the superstructure, technology determines everything, and the power to speak in this world is in the hands of the strong, etc. I have only recently realized it and completely awake. .”

Guo Jia's belief in these words has recently reached the peak, and he agrees with them to the extreme.

Today's Qingzhou and Xuzhou can develop to the current scale, indeed it is inseparable from the economy and technology.

If it weren't for the establishment of the bank and the development of business roads, there would be no way to make huge profits from the people of the world in Qingxu Erdi.

After having money, if the lord had not insisted on buying rare materials from all over the world, insisted on recruiting skilled craftsmen from all over the world, insisted on expressing so many ideas in his mind, and put them into practice, the military strength of Qing and Xu would not be so strong .

The development of science and technology on the basis of the economy has created the dominance of Qingxu and Xuzhou today, and everyone in the world flocks to it.

"Well, what you said is only based on the analysis of the current situation in Qingxu and Xuzhou. I also want to hear your views on the situation in the world, especially on the upcoming war between Sun and Liu."

"Which one of them will win the final victory if we don't help each other?"

Guo Jia didn't speak when he heard the words, but instead smiled at Jia Ji who was not far away, with a tacit understanding.

The two have already deduced this matter dozens of times, and they have exactly the same views in their hearts.

Speaking of Jia Ji, regardless of his young age, he is very thorough in his father's insidious and cunning family tradition of ignoring martial arts.

Of course, it can be called insidious and cunning, and its clever strategy is no less than anyone.

There are also some reasons why these two people can become friends despite the large age gap.

The key lies in the way they look at the problem, they only pay attention to the final result of victory, and don't care about the process.

In particular, how many people the enemy in the war will die because of their own schemes has never been within the scope of the two of them.

As long as the two of them start to make suggestions for Xi Yu, it means that what they are about to do can maximize their benefits, and at the same time cause huge losses to the enemy, and what's more... they will be devastated!
Therefore, the two of them seldom make suggestions for Xi Yu, but once they make a move, they can see the general situation of the world very clearly, and grasp the gap, strengths and weaknesses between the enemy and us.

"Uncle, in my humble opinion, the victor must be Zhou Gongjin!"

"He may not be able to completely annihilate Liu Bei in Jingzhou, but he will definitely defeat the enemy. He will run away like a bereaved dog. Even if Xu Yuanzhi sits in Jingzhou, he will not be able to change it!"

Before Guo Jia could speak, Jia Ji spoke out excitedly.

"Oh? Why?"

Xi Yu raised his eyebrows, a little curious.

Zhou Yu, styled Gongjin, was born in Shuxian County, Lujiang River. He was a famous military strategist, statesman, and strategist in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, as well as a famous general of the Eastern Wu Dynasty.

He was born in a famous family, the Lujiang Zhou family, and he was the son of Zhou Yi, Ling Zhou of Luoyang.

Zhou Yu was originally tall, handsome, and fine in rhythm. Once upon a time, there was a local saying that "the song is wrong, Zhou Lang Gu", which shows how much he was liked by the girls at that time.

But that's not what he's best known for.

Zhou Yu made friends with Sun Ce when he was young, and in the second year of Xingping, he helped Sun Ce defeat Liu Yao in the Battle of Qu'a.

In the third year of Jian'an, Sun Ce pacified Jiangdong with Sun Ce.

In the fifth year of Jian'an, Sun Ce was assassinated and died, and Sun Quan succeeded him. Zhou Yu sent his troops to the funeral, and took charge of all affairs with Zhang Zhao, the chief historian, as the Central Guard.

In the seventh year of Jian'an, Cao Cao was responsible for delivering the hostages, Zhou Yu advised against accepting the hostages, suggested that Sun Quan should occupy the south of the Yangtze River, support the army and wait for changes, and established the strategic policy of separatist control of Jiangdong and the independent establishment of the country.

In the 13th year of Jian'an, Cao's army came to Jiangdong. Zhou Yu analyzed Cao Cao's four problems in his army, and strongly advocated resisting Cao. He personally led the Wu army and defeated Cao's army in Chibi with fire.

The Battle of Chibi is one of the famous and typical battles in history where the less won the more. This battle laid the foundation for the "three divisions of the world" at the end of the Han Dynasty.

In the 14th year of Jian'an, Zhou Yu led his army to defeat the coalition forces of Cao Ren and Xu Huang in the Battle of Nanjun, successfully captured Jiangling, an important military town, and worshiped General Pian as the prefect of Nanjun.

In the 15th year of Jian'an, the strategy of "taking Shu, merging Zhang Lu, uniting Ma Chao, and then using Xiangyang as a base to erode Cao Cao, the north can be exploited" was proposed.

However, this strategy has not yet been implemented, and he died of illness in Baqiu on the way to take Shu. He was only 36 years old.

In the official history, Zhou Yu was "excellent in character", "elegant and elegant", and "a real genius".

He was praised as "a hero in the world, Jiang Zuo's romantic and beautiful husband".

It is naturally not easy for a person who can achieve such achievements to lose.

Furthermore, in history, he once led an army to defeat the coalition forces of Cao Ren and Xu Huang in the Battle of Nanjun, and successfully captured the military town of Jiangling. Now it may not be impossible!

It's just that he knows these things, but Guo Jia, Jia Ji and others don't know, so why do they think Zhou Gongjin must win?
He was quite curious about this.

"Gongjin grew up in the Yangtze River and Huaihe River, and he was familiar with the dangers. He entered and exited Peng and Li, and waded through the waves for a long time. , Myron, who raised the plan, is indeed the hero of all people!"

"Such a hero who expands Jingzhou will definitely be able to take advantage of the right time, place and people and also occupy Xiangyang. This plan cannot be done by anyone who knows the strategy."

"In my humble opinion, I think that Zhou Yu's generation, who are worthy of a hundred generations, if other wise and brave people come out, it is impossible to count them all. Gong Jin is no less than Huaiyin Marquis back then!"

Marquis of Huaiyin?
Xi Yu didn't expect that this little guy would have such a high opinion of Zhou Yu, let alone that he would compare Huaiyin Hou with Zhou Yu.

Han Xin, Marquis of Huaiyin, was known as the "Soldier Immortal" and "God of War".

He first led the troops to pacify the Three Qin states, and then in the struggle between Chu and Han, his outstanding military ability swept across the states of Wei, Zhao, Dai, Yan, and Qi, and supported Liu Bang with soldiers several times.

In the Battle of Puban, he took down Anyi, the capital of Wei State; in the Battle of Jingxing, he defeated the Zhao army in a back-to-back battle; ··
Finally, in the battle of Gaixia, he laid an ambush on all sides, and adopted a strategy of attacking the heart, using besieged songs on all sides to break the hearts of the Chu army. In the end, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, was desperate and committed suicide in Wujiang. He was also named King of Chu for his meritorious service.

In addition, as the first-class military strategist during the Qin and Han Dynasties. , He not only commanded many major military operations with brilliant achievements, but also has profound military accomplishments, leaving behind three military works "Han Xin".

It is also one of the "Thirteen Military Strategies" recorded in "Hanshu Yiwenzhi", which is listed alongside Sun Wu, Sun Bin, Shang Yang, Wu Qi and other military strategists.

Not only that, he also worked with Zhang Liang to sort out the military books handed down to the early Western Han Dynasty.

Speaking of which, although Zhou Yu and Han Xin did not live in the same era, they are somewhat similar in certain achievements.

However, Baqiu died of illness at middle age, and a master of high meritorious service was murdered and killed in Changle Palace by Empress Lu and Xiao He, and was punished by the three clans.

It can be seen from this that it is not easy to be a famous general through the ages.

"However, no matter what the final outcome of this battle is, Liu Bei will definitely follow the path of Sichuan and Sichuan in Xichuan, because my son, in his opinion, with his status as a clan member of the Han Dynasty, coupled with the countless strong generals under his command, he will surely follow the path of Sichuan and Shu in Xichuan. Will gain a firm foothold in the Land of Abundance..."

"what--"

After hearing Jia Ji's unfinished meaning, Xu Chu suddenly became a little irritable.

He couldn't help roaring, and then said angrily: "Hua Rongdao's defeat by Guan Yu is the greatest shame in my life! If I hadn't met the lord, I'm afraid that I would be worse than Sun Ce, Marquis of Jiangdong Wu today!"
