Zhou Lang Zhou Lang

Liu Bei sent an acquaintance this time—Sun Qian.

After Li Mu and Zhou Yu generously thanked him for releasing him, this Liu Bei's most trusted staff member began to talk about the two alliances.

Cao Cao not only sent troops to Xuzhou, but also personally led the army, leading the tiger and leopard cavalry in a menacing manner.If it weren't for this, Liu Bei would not have been troubled day and night as soon as he heard the letter. He felt that the strong walls and clear fields were not enough, so he sent envoys across the river to ask Sun for help.

"Lead the troops yourself?" Li Mu frowned slightly, and his eyes quickly glanced at Zhou Yu, in exchange for Zhou Yu's soothing smile.

"That's right," Sun Qian straightened his back in a kneeling posture, and bowed to Li Mu again, "Cao Cao's name is a Han official, but he is actually a Han thief. He imprisoned the emperor in Xuchang and issued the edict of the world. How is Dong Zhuo different? If we can attack him hard while he is far away from Xuchang, even if we can't break him in front of the battle, the Cao thief will lose his prestige when he returns to Xuchang. Raise troops to challenge them, and those who follow them must be many."

ha?

Li Mucai was thinking about whether Cao Cao's visit would also openly attack Liu Bei and actually take Yuan Shu, and he almost burst out laughing when he heard this.

Whether it is a Han minister or a Han thief, with the emperor in his hands, no matter what he does or how he does it, it is tantamount to having a fig leaf.To be an enemy of Cao Cao head-on, no matter how much water Liu Bei, the emperor's uncle, has, this name will always exist.But what is the Jiangdong Sun family?

In the Sun Liu alliance in history, there are countless heroes in Jiangdong, the navy is illustrious, and there are many soldiers. However, Liu Bei stooped to Xiakou when he was defeated again and again, and took shelter of Liu Biao's eldest son who was released outside.This seemingly unequal alliance was formed because of this "name".

But after having this "name", what should we do?

In history, it was Cao Cao's soldiers approaching the city, and it was inevitable to avoid it, but now it is Jiangdong who took the initiative to send troops. Could it be that after this battle, he completely tore up his face with Cao Cao, and since then he can only bow under the name of Liu Bei's "Uncle Emperor"?

Liu Bei's wishful thinking is too good to be true!

Li Mu secretly sneered, but a trace of puzzlement appeared on his face just right: "But how can I remember... When Liu Shijun came to Xunyang to mourn my brother, he was ordered by Cao Cao to suppress Yuan Shu's arrogance? Why did he come to Xuzhou again? ?”

As soon as this remark came out, the corners of Zhou Yu's lips twitched slightly.But knowing that she was going to expose people's truths, she didn't say anything to stop her.

Since Sun Qian came, he was naturally prepared to be asked about this matter.It's just that he originally thought that Sun Quan was still young, and although he had a bad reputation, he was not like Zhou Yu and other figures who stood shoulder to shoulder with Sun Ce. He could only decide whether to send troops or not, and it was up to Zhou Yu alone. However, it was just a dispute between Jiangdong veterans represented by Cheng Pu and new talents such as Zhou Yu. Sun Quan was involved in it, and it was mostly a coincidence.But he didn't want Li Mu to meet him not only with Zhou Yu, but also Zhou Yu didn't say a word and let her..."perplexed".

As for Sun Shao, who is currently sitting on top of Wu's landlord...it can only be said that Cao Cao's military situation is urgent, and they have no time to think about other things.

However, being unexpected is one thing, and Sun Qian couldn't help but answer.

It's just that Li Mu didn't listen to his long-winded speech at all. He only watched Zhou Yu lower his eyes and lower his eyebrows, and the corners of his lips raised slightly, which clearly showed that he was planning to dig a hole for someone again.

Liu Bei?Yuan Shu?Or Cao Cao?

Just as he was lost in thought, he saw Zhou Yu's eyebrows raised slightly, as if he felt her gaze, and looked up.

Being caught peeping, Li Mu's face became hot, and he just stared back with a fair and honest look.

"Cough..." Zhou Yu coughed lightly and tilted his head towards her.

"Cough..." Li Mu also coughed, as if he was going to confront him.

Zhou Yu shook his head, raised his hand to salute her, and smiled jokingly: "Mr. Quan, Mr. Gongzhi's discussion, what does Mr. Quan think?"

what?

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, and turned his head following his gaze, and saw Sun Qianzheng cupping his hands to her, his eyes full of expectation and sincerity, obviously waiting for her to answer something.

The literary quotations are extensive, citing scriptures, how can Li Mu recall what he asked?

"Cough..." The cough that was originally angry, this time with a bit of sincerity, Li Mu lowered his head and cleared his throat vigorously, so clear that Sun Qian couldn't listen to his greetings, so he stopped and said "no problem" slowly .

Taking advantage of this opportunity, I have already figured out a way to deal with it: "Mr. Gongzhi's proposal should be forwarded, and I ask my lord to make a decision."

Zhou Yu finally couldn't help laughing, and was glared at by Li Mu again.

Hearing that he was going to report to Sun Shao, Sun Ganyuan wanted to say more, but Zhou Yu's laugh made his heart tremble.Suddenly, I thought of a sentence Liu Bei specially told me when I was leaving-you can pay homage to Sun, but the order to send troops must be answered by Zhou Lang before it counts.

It seems... It is still necessary for him to pay a visit to Zhou Yu's mansion alone.

Seeing off Sun Gan with a fluctuating expression, Li Mu turned his head and saw that Zhou Yu was still looking at her with a teasing smile on his lips. He wanted to keep staring at him as soon as he raised his eyebrows. As soon as the eyebrow peak moved, he was the first to burst out laughing.

The spring day is light and warm, and a faint ray of sunlight hangs obliquely against the cornices and bucket arches. It seems that a layer of warmth gradually seeps into the heart from the skin. The girl's flying eyebrows seem to be coated with a layer of softness in the sunshine. picturesque.

Zhou Yu stared blankly for a moment, the corners of his lips raised higher and higher, and a smile gradually appeared in his quiet eyes.

"What did he say just now?" Li Mu stretched out his hands to brush the hair around his ears, and turned his face away.

"He said that Xuzhou was originally a city brought down by Bo Fu. Liu Bei just wanted to borrow Xuzhou temporarily to settle down. After he captured Shouchun, he would return Xuzhou to us." The meaning had already dissipated unconsciously, and when he repeated it at this time, Zhou Yu's tone was actually gentle and gentle, as if he was just repeating what Sun Gan said just now.

"Borrow from Xuzhou?" Li Mu was slightly startled—why is this scene so familiar?

Shouldn't Liu Bei want to borrow Jingzhou?

Thinking of this, the smile that was still on her lips unconsciously took on a hint of sarcasm.

This Liu Bei is really coaxing her like a child...

"Even Liu Bei has taken a fancy to Shouchun. It seems that you have a lot of fun in sending troops this time." Li Mu patted Zhou Yu on the shoulder casually, his tone paused, his eyes flashed lightly, "If you attack Shouchun, I'll go Guangling..."

"No!" Before he finished speaking, Zhou Yu's eyes immediately showed disapproval.

"Why not?" Li Mu was unconvinced, and spread the facts with both hands, "I did not go to Guangling to fight for Xuzhou. What are you afraid of? Even Liu Bei wants to have a birthday, so why not Cao Cao? Cao Cao is suspicious if I am in Xuzhou , I will always be on guard and I will really attack Xuzhou, the so-called art of war, isn't it all about the false and the real?"

"You don't want to fight Xuzhou?" Zhou Yu's eyes flashed a moment of hesitation, "Is this true?"

Li Mu didn't answer, but only showed an expression that he said something nonsense.

Zhou Yu smiled immediately: "Then... Let Ziyi go with you."

"I told you not to fight, what's the use of my brother going..." After a pause, Li Mu suddenly realized, "There is a war in Shouchun and Xuzhou is peaceful, you are in Shouchun and my brother followed me to Xuzhou...you deliberately To divide his military power."

Not a question, but a conclusion.

She originally planned to use Zhou Yu and Tai Shici's competition in the military camp to create a situation of fighting for power with Zhou Yu, so that the major factions in the six counties of Jiangdong would fall into their camp, and thus gather together and compete openly and secretly.To create a point of conflict, what better excuse is there than to fight for victory on the battlefield?

When Li Mu's words pointed out the meaning, Zhou Yu's smile deepened, and the corners of his brows and eyes were still a little proud, and a little bit complacent.

I don't know who was surprised when Li Mu guessed the intention for the first time, secretly frightened, and took precautions.

"Then Ashao..."

"I'm right here, inspecting food and grass for my second uncle!" The childish voice was clear and crisp, with a hint of ignorance in the world, but it was resonant, firm and clear.

Sun Shao is the Lord of Jiangdong, so even though Sun Qian came here on behalf of Liu Bei, Zhou Yu and Li Mu blocked the interview out of the consideration of equal status and not being at a disadvantage.But Li Mu felt that Sun Shao was at the age where he wanted to learn more and watch more, so he left him to sit behind the screen and listen. After Sun Qian left, Sun Shao also came out from behind the screen, rubbed against her feet and looked up She and Zhou Yu worked together to dig holes for others.

The little boy admired his father's bravery and might in his heart, and yearned for the majesty on the stage. He also wanted to fight together, and he also hoped that one day, he would be able to gallop in the barracks and on the battlefield by himself.So as soon as Li Mu mentioned him, he immediately spoke up.

Xiao Xiao's body is straight, the corners of her lips are slightly pursed, and her phoenix eyes are sharp. She assumes the posture of her father sitting in front of the military case in her memory. She just thinks that this way she can get a little bit closer to the battlefield and her father.But his heart was tense, he didn't know whether to hit Xuzhou or Shouchun, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to help, and he wouldn't be able to do his best.

Childish and childish, pretending to be old-fashioned, Li Mu couldn't help laughing out loud.However, there was no disapproval in this smile, and there was even a bit of exaggerated relief in it.

She squatted down and leaned close to Sun Shao, her eyes were sharp and she was looking at him. She asked him seriously: "If I put [-] troops in Shouchun and [-] troops in Guangling, every two soldiers will consume a lot of money every day." One hectare of rice, and three peasants who transport food consume one hectare of rice per day, and each peasant can bear the weight of ten hectares. If it takes half a month to march to Shouchun, but it only takes seven days to go to Guangling in Xuzhou, the two days How many people need to be recruited to transport food in each region? How much food and grass need to be prepared in advance?"

When transporting food before the army, it is necessary to consider going in batches according to the distance of the marching route. It is also necessary to consider that the speed of the outbound journey is slow due to the burden of food. Not counting food consumption, but at the same time, we must also consider how much food will be consumed if the weather affects the marching speed.This food mobilization inspector does not have all kinds of modern tools, and Li Mu is always staring at it. In the entire county mansion and in the barracks, there are special manpower counting every day. How can a six-year-old child understand it? ?

Sun Shao thought about it for a while, then drooped his head dejectedly.
