Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

Hua Tuo bowed deeply to Liu Yu, and then continued: "I have told the emperor's uncle before that what he is doing is the great way, and this is by no means a compliment.

I have been practicing medicine in the countryside for a long time and have witnessed too many tragedies in the world.

The people suffered from hunger, poverty and war, and their lives were trampled upon like grass.

Only by ending this chaotic era and allowing the people to have enough food can we truly eliminate these sufferings.”

Liu Yu said slowly with a determined look: "I know the hardships of the people and the heavy responsibility I bear. I stand here to bring peace to the world.

The Battle of Jiangdong is the key to pacifying the world.

If we can defeat Sun Quan and unify the Jiangnan region, then we will be one step closer to achieving peace.

If this war can be won, then it will only take two years at most for the world to return to peace;

But if we lose this battle twice, it will take at least more than ten years to pacify the world.

If we go through another ten years of war, countless soldiers will die in battle and even more civilians will die in the chaos of war.

So I have to proceed with caution and consideration.”

Hua Tuo was moved and said: "The emperor's uncle's benevolence and righteousness are known to the sun and the moon. It is a blessing for the people and the Han Dynasty!

With such great benevolence and righteousness from the Emperor's uncle, we should do our best to assist him. In this battle, I will do my best to take precautions and try to prevent the outbreak of the disease."

Liu Yu nodded, his eyes as solemn as the dark clouds before a storm.

He knew very well that this epidemic not only concerned personal safety, but was also closely linked to the life and death of countless soldiers.

Every decision may become the watershed between life and death, and there is no room for carelessness.

After careful consideration, Liu Yu's heart gradually became firm, like a towering mountain, unshakable. He slowly said: "Yunchang! If there are soldiers who are unfortunately infected with the disease, they must be immediately isolated. This matter is of vital importance and must not be taken lightly.

If this order is not resolutely enforced, our army will face a catastrophe."

Once someone was infected with the plague and was not isolated in time, the war would be doomed to fail. Faced with such a situation, he felt extremely heavy and helpless.

He understood that as a military commander, he had to make difficult decisions to protect more lives.

Liu Yu was fully aware of the seriousness of the matter, so he was willing to spend more time and energy on the preliminary defense work.

Guan Yu pondered for a moment and understood the profound meaning of Liu Yu's words.

Uncle Liu was right. If that moment really came, as a general, he must make a decisive decision without any hesitation.

Because any hesitation could put the lives of all the soldiers in danger.

"What the emperor's uncle said is absolutely right. I have understood it. I will definitely take comprehensive defensive measures and will never let this happen."

Liu Yu nodded with satisfaction, then turned his gaze to other generals.

Zhang Fei bowed and said, "Uncle, please rest assured. I, Zhang Fei, will certainly be able to do what you asked me to do."

Generals such as Zhao Yun also expressed their opinions, saying that they would strictly abide by these decisions and would never allow the plague to occur in their camps.

Liu Yu looked at the people in front of him with a serious and solemn expression. His voice was deep and powerful, as if it could penetrate everyone's soul. He said in an unquestionable tone: "This matter is of great importance. You must keep it in mind and don't take it lightly!

During the march, I will send my personal guards to check on the camps. If anyone is found to be inadequate in their response, their authority to lead the troops will be immediately revoked.”

This sentence exploded in the crowd like thunder, shocking people's hearts.

Everyone understood that if they were deprived of the authority to lead the troops, this battle would have nothing to do with them.

If I were excluded by Uncle Liu at this critical moment, it would be difficult for me to achieve further success.

After arranging these, Liu Yu was finally able to free up his hands to start deploying troops.

First, he ordered Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun to each lead 10,000 elite troops and march southward.

Among them, Guan Yu led his troops to garrison Runan, while Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun entered Jiujiang respectively.

At the same time, Liu Yu personally led an army of 50,000 and advanced steadily.

While everyone was taking active action, Gan Ning also received the order from Liu Yu.

He would lead all the warships and soldiers towards Jiujiang.

Since the situation in the rear had not yet completely stabilized, this was all the troops Liu Yu could mobilize.

According to the intelligence Liu Yu had, Jiangdong could currently mobilize about 60,000 troops.

Judging from the comparison of military strength, I don't have any obvious advantage.

However, Liu Yu was not discouraged, because he knew very well that the outcome of a war did not only depend on the number of troops, but also required the use of wisdom and strategy.

……

……

The news that Liu Yu had deployed his troops in Jiujiang made the situation in Jiangdong even more tense.

At this time, Sun Quan received a letter from Liu Yu.

The former general Jian and I once fought together against Dong Zhuo in front of Hulao Pass. The former general once told me that I have two sons who are heroes among men and will definitely contribute to the Han Dynasty in the future.

The words of the late general are still ringing in my ears. It is sad that we are about to go to war.

If Zhongmou is willing to carry on the late general's will, I will certainly report this to Your Majesty and confer a title of nobility and appoint a general on Zhongmou.

I can also promise Zhongmou that as long as the Han Dynasty stands, the title of the Sun family will be hereditary.

If Zhongmou insists on his own way and refuses to withdraw his troops, Jiangdong will inevitably fall into war.

At the end of the letter, Liu Yu gave a timetable. As for this war, Liu Yu had too many concerns due to historical lessons.

If the Jiangdong issue could be resolved without resorting to violence, Liu Yu would certainly accept it with pleasure.

Sun Quan looked at Liu Yu's letter without much expression on his face. He had heard people talk about what happened to Sun Jian in front of Hulao Pass.

Sun Quan was very wary of the wisdom shown by Liu Bei.

To this day, some soldiers still have awe for Uncle Liu.

The most typical character among them is undoubtedly Zu Mao.

Back then, when Sun Jian was surrounded by enemy forces, Zu Mao stepped forward. In that thrilling battle, Zu Mao was seriously injured in several places and his life was in danger.

Just when Zu Mao's life was hanging by a thread, Uncle Liu extended a helping hand in time and donated his own blood, only then did he pull Zu Mao back from the brink of death.

From then on, Zu Mao remembered Uncle Liu's life-saving grace in his heart and was filled with gratitude.

During this period, Zu Mao went to Sun Quan's tent more than once and tried his best to persuade him to put aside the hostile relationship between him and Liu Bei.

He knew very well that Uncle Liu was unfathomable, that he had many brave generals and counselors under his command, and that Uncle Liu himself possessed extraordinary wisdom and courage.

Using Jiangdong's current strength to confront Liu Bei is like hitting a rock with an egg. It is simply a fantasy to want to defeat such a powerful opponent. There is no possibility at all!
