The last three kingdoms

Chapter 1315
Chengdu City is already under reconstruction. Although it is no longer possible to serve as the capital of Jihan, as the state capital of Yizhou, the reconstruction of Chengdu City is still imperative.However, due to lack of funds, the reconstruction of Chengdu City has been relatively slow.

Liu Yin did not live on the original site of the Anping Palace, which is still in ruins. After Liu Yin returned to Chengdu, he chose the villa at the foot of the West Mountain. This is where Liu Yin developed gunpowder. Although the place is dilapidated now, it can be said to be sheltered from the wind and rain.

Chengdu Ling is sincere and fearful, what kind of status is King Yong, living in such a dilapidated house, how can this be done?The Chengdu Order repeatedly invited Liu Yin to live in the Chengdu government office, after all, the conditions there were much better.

"No need, I think it's good here." Liu Yin took it lightly. He returned home to Ding You to keep his filial piety. Nearby, living here can also express condolences to the mother.

Although it was Ding You who kept his filial piety, the candlesticks in Liu Yin's room were not extinguished all night, and the reports from the front line of Xiling would come here every day. all over.Liu Yin not only read, but also often circled and commented on these official documents, and wrote down his own experience and opinions. However, the documents here are often only accessible, and Liu Yin's room is already a high place. A pile was piled up, but a piece of paper never flowed out.

A Jian was quite puzzled: "Young master, Hu Dushuai is in charge of Xiling now, and it has nothing to do with us. What is the young master trying to do without sleeping and eating like this?"

Liu Yin said indifferently: "It's about the great affairs of the country. Even if you are not in his position, you can't stay out of it. The battle of Xiling is related to the overall situation of defeating Wu. How can you take it lightly."

"Then why didn't the young master express his feelings to His Majesty and bring troops to fight this battle? I don't think that Hu Ji is a good general. After fighting for so many days, he still can't win Xiling. If the young master goes instead, maybe It's already done."

"The battle of Xiling this time is not easy. The right time and place are not on our side. Hu Ji is eager to seek success, and I am afraid that he will be ambushed by Zhou Chu."

At this time, a sergeant rushed over and presented an official document: "King Yong, this is the latest battle report."

Wang Jun would report the latest battle report to Liu Yin almost every day, but Xiling is thousands of miles away from Chengdu and the road is bumpy, so even if it is the fastest flying horse, it will take at least four or five days to deliver the official document to Liu Yin What happened to Liu Yin could only see the old news from a few days ago.

Liu Yin hummed lightly, took the official document, opened it, and began to read it.

The delivery time of official documents is not fixed every day, sometimes in the morning, sometimes at noon, and more often in the evening, no matter when it is delivered, Liu Yin will always open it and read it as soon as possible.

A Jian noticed that Liu Yin's complexion had changed obviously today. When he read official documents before, he always looked calm and breezy, but this time his brows were furrowed tightly, and several black lines were twisted out. , Ah Jian couldn't help being a little surprised, did something special happen in today's battle report?
Liu Yin quickly finished reading the official document, slapped it heavily on several cases, and sighed a long time: "Hu Ji has wronged the country!"

"Young master, what happened?" Jian asked.

Liu Yin pulled out a map, and it was a detailed map of the Xiling area. Liu Yin wrote and drew on it in the past few days, and he could clearly see the distribution of troops between Han and Wu and the offensive and defensive situation of both sides. up.

"According to the current attack direction of Hu Ji, it must be Liaojiawa, north of Xiling." Liu Yin pointed to the map.

"Is there something wrong? Liaojiawa is the main road leading to Xiling. If Hu Dushuai can take Liaojiawa, he will not be far from Xiling." A Jian has followed Liu Yin for many years, and he couldn't understand the map before. He can see the general idea now.

"If it was normal, there would be no problem, but now it is the rainy season and the flood season, Liaojiawa is low-lying. If Zhou Chu is attacked by water, the entire Liaojiawa will definitely become a water town, and Hu Ji's entire army will be wiped out." .”

A Jian was taken aback. Others looked at the map and only looked at the terrain, but Liu Yin also took the time into consideration. If Liu Yin's Wu State was really attacked by water, the tens of thousands of Han soldiers would have to feed all the fish and shrimp. up.

"No way, water attack must at least be prepared in advance. How can Zhou Chu plan so carefully for building dams and storing water?"

Liu Yin's face was very solemn, and he said slowly: "Judging from the fighting situation between the two sides these days, Zhou Chu did indeed have the intention of leading the Han army to Liaojiawa. Hu Ji was eager for quick success and did not judge the situation. Falling into Zhou Chu's trap, the defeat of the Han army is inevitable."

"Then why didn't the young master send someone to inform them to let Hu Ji withdraw from Liaojiawa?"

Liu Yin shook his head gently, and sighed: "It's too late, before the fast horse sends a message to Xiling, Liaojiawa is already a vast ocean."

Seeing Liu Yin's dejection, Ah Jian persuaded: "The defeat of the army is due to Hu Ji's misconduct, and the blame is his own fault. Why should the young master lament for him? It's just right that Hu Ji was defeated this time. This time, he deliberately wanted to Those who grab credit don't take the young master seriously, and this defeat is a lesson for them."

Liu Yin glanced at him, and said: "A Jian, this kind of whining can only be said at home. When you go outside, you must not talk nonsense. If someone who cares overhears it, read the book, and you will eat it." I can’t blame you. The Xiling army was defeated, and those who were lost were all my sons and daughters. How can we rejoice in misfortunes if we are not enough to grieve and mourn?”

A Jian was startled, and said calmly, "What the young master taught, A Jian will take it to heart."

Liu Yin put his hands behind his back and sighed: "The trees are beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy them. It's too cold to be high."

"Is there no remedy, then?"

Liu Yin pondered for a moment, then sat back in front of several cases, took a pen and paper, finished writing a letter, handed it to A Jian, and said: "A Jian, this time you must go to Jiangling personally, Give this letter to Governor Fu Qian, and he will deal with it after receiving the letter."

A Jian knew that Liu Yin would use him only for important matters. He took the letter, nodded heavily, and was about to turn around and leave when Liu Yin stopped him again: "Ride my horse, remember, Go as fast as you can, without any delay on the way."

Liu Yin's mount is a thousand-mile horse, and with A Jian's skill, it can at least double the time of ordinary messengers.

A Jian left with his hands in his hands and disappeared into the vast night.
