Three Kingdoms

It is said that one general is incompetent and the three armies are exhausted.

Whether Wang Wei is an incompetent general, he doesn't think so. However, he also knows that his abilities are limited, and he is still far away from his childhood dream of defeating the enemy in battle and sweeping thousands of armies.

Wang Wei had met Fei Qian as early as when he arrived in Jingzhou. At that time, Wang Wei just thought that Fei Qian looked weak and had nothing special to show, so he didn't pay much attention to it. After all, Liu Biao had just established himself in Jingzhou and saw him every day. This person, that person, later on, Wang Wei will forget Fei Qian...

When he heard the name Fei Qian again, Wang Weicai suddenly realized that a guy who seemed completely inconspicuous before was now in a high position and out of reach.

Just like the guy who could only show half of his head in the corner when taking graduation photos, now he is placed in the C position in the middle.

But Wang Wei could only think about it this way.

Because in the final analysis, Wang Wei is just trying to make a living.

Just seek no faults, not merit.

If you can live long enough to enjoy life, that will be the greatest blessing. Wang Wei, whose dream has been blunted by reality, seems to have nothing unacceptable about leading the army alone in Zhuyang, far away from the remote Jingxiang. After all, he is the boss in Zhuyang, so-called Ning. Be the head of something, and not the tail of something.

"Reporting to the captain, supplies from Xiangyang have arrived..."

When Wang Wei was at the Yamen, he heard the soldiers saying this.

"Supplies from Xiangyang?" ” Wang Wei raised his eyebrows. Wang Wei has been in Zhuyang for many years, and naturally cannot do without Xiangyang's material deployment and replenishment. However, it seems that a batch has only arrived in the past two months. Logically speaking, a new one should arrive next month. How could it be one earlier? moon?

However, not all supplies arrive on time, and some have arrived late before...

"Where's the defense?" ”Wang Wei stretched out his hand and asked.

"Reporting to the captain, the customs defense is still behind. Five carts of supplies have arrived first..." the soldier asked, "There are still some behind... Do you want to put them in first?" 』This was an era when even salt was a luxury product, and supplies were as attractive to ordinary soldiers as the free rice distributed by supermarkets in later generations.

"Well, wait until someone takes a look..." Wang Wei hesitated for a moment, and finally stood up and headed to the Yangcheng Gate.

After reaching the city wall, Wang Wei looked down. Outside the city gate, there were indeed five baggage trucks with Jingzhou signs hanging on them. However, Wang Wei did not recognize the team leader who was lazily leaning next to the baggage trucks.

"Who is under the city?" Wang Wei asked loudly.

Zhu Ling cupped his hands casually, "I am under General Wen... Hi, Captain Wang, do you still want this supply?" Don't say anything early, I'll take you away! 』

"You look strange. Why haven't I seen you before?" ” Wang Wei asked again.

Zhu Ling yelled and patted the baggage cart beside him, "Hey, it's not that I haven't seen it before, it's just Captain Wang who didn't remember it!" Forget it, forget it, I'm just a small soldier and not a big shot. Isn't it normal that I haven't seen him before? It's okay if you don't recognize me. Could it be that Captain Wang doesn't even recognize this? 』

Those in charge of logistics in the military are all uncles. There is no other reason. No one knows whether they will meet someone again when they ask for supplies next time, so even if they are a little angry, they put up with it. What's more, despite Wang Wei's words in Zhuyang City, Wang Wei must be in charge of other soldiers. Sorry, they are not on the same line and cannot be controlled.

Unless you want to fall out with Wenpin...

Wang Wei said in a muffled voice: "Where is the defense?" 』

"behind! On Junhou! How the hell could I have that? ! I’ve said it several times! The car behind is broken down! My cars came first! ” Zhu Ling was very impatient and jumped onto the baggage cart behind him. He opened up the linoleum cloth on the baggage cart, revealing the grain bags tied inside. Then he cut open one of the sacks with a knife, revealing the contents of the sack. Bacon wrapped in oil paper, "Damn it, do you want it or not? I'm exhausted!" All testify, I was sent to the end of the land anyway! Nothing is missing! It’s something the city doesn’t want! If others don’t want it, wouldn’t it violate military law if we take it? ah? ! 』

"If you don't commit it, don't commit it!" Why can’t others take it if they don’t want it? 』

"That's right..."

Several soldiers following Zhu Ling also started making noises.

"..." Wang Wei almost heard the sound of the soldiers around him swallowing their saliva, "That's it... put it in first and then talk..."

The soldiers on the Zhuyang City Wall responded happily, and even the suspension bridge was lowered much faster.

Nowadays, who doesn’t just have to make ends meet?

Zhuyang's original main defense directions were, firstly, the remaining Yellow Turban thieves, and secondly, the hussars in the direction of Wuguan, so the main warning force was still placed in the north. As for the south, which is Wenpin's jurisdiction, basically not Very wary. Not to mention Wang Wei, even if it were someone else, unless they had ulterior motives, there would be no reason to run into friendly areas every day to conduct reconnaissance.

"Pooh! ” Zhu Ling jumped out of the baggage cart carelessly. Although he cursed in a low voice, the sound was just enough for the soldiers on the top of the city to hear, “You’re going to kill me! I said, if anyone is out of breath, come out and help! 』

Wang Wei shook his head, a little helpless.

how? Push back because of a bad attitude? Yes, it can relieve the anger for a while, but believe it or not, when the stewards and leaders came up, they first dragged these few down to make boards for Wang Wei to see, and then came back piece by piece? Are you not counting on supplies in the future, or what are you going to do?

Of course, Wang Wei was not completely helpless, but he just couldn't fall out on the spot.

The Zhuyang soldiers opened the city gate happily, and then helped push the vehicles across the suspension bridge and into the city.

"Ah, this cart is a bit heavy..." A Zhuyang soldier who was helping to push the cart couldn't help but said, "What's loaded with it?" So heavy? 』

"..." Zhu Ling's eyes couldn't help but freeze, and he immediately cursed, "Didn't you f*cking eat?" Isn't it just that it got stuck in the mud and the axle is stuck? Use a little more force and move more quickly! 』

Wang Wei has already come down from the city wall and is preparing to count the supplies. Wang Wei could have ignored this matter originally, but this time, he had to remember this guy well. Maybe he had seen this guy before but forgot about it, or maybe he hadn't seen him before, but it doesn't matter. He will remember it well this time.

Zhu Ling didn't seem to care at all. While walking towards Wang Wei, he reached into his arms and groped around, as if he was about to take out the supply list to check. Then when Wang Wei approached, his eyes suddenly shone. Rushing forward, he shouted at the same time: "Do it!" 』

Suddenly, in addition to the first vehicle, the four baggage vehicles behind suddenly lifted their oilcloths, and soldiers like wolves and tigers sprang out from the vehicles, and they immediately started fighting!

...This is a dividing line between shouting and killing...

"Don't do it again!" I must regret nothing! 』

Sun Quan banged the table, then pointed at Zhou Tai, "What are you afraid of?" With only three to five hundred soldiers, Zhou Youping can turn Jiang Xia Tian upside down with just one general! You guys keep saying that one hundred thousand soldiers in Jingzhou should not act rashly! This is one hundred thousand soldiers! This is Jiangxia, which you regard as a rock! 』

Sun Shiwan expressed extreme contempt for the number of one hundred thousand.

Zhang Zhao remained silent.

Zhang Zhao has Zhang Zhao's ideas.

Zhou Yu didn't speak either.

Zhou Yu has Zhou Yu's concerns.

Zhu, Lu, Zhang, Gu, Chen, Wu and others in the hall, including Lu Su, were also silent. Only Sun Quan's voice still lingered.

These Jiangdong families have more ideas. Sun Quan wants to send troops to Jiangxia. On the surface, it seems to be a simple answer. After all, Jiangxia produces copper. This is a well-known thing. Who doesn't like money in this world? Well, What about copper?

But maybe Sun Quan is not just plotting against Jiangxia?

Sun Quan looked left and right. He thought that he had been in Jiangdong for a long time, and he felt that he had understood it. Basically, in summary, big things depend on power, and medium things depend on public opinion. Small things depend on relationships. Things that can be solved through personal relationships are all trivial. If things cannot be solved, public opinion must be created. If public opinion cannot be solved, powerful people must be used.

And now, the message Sun Quan wants to send out is that attacking Jiangxia is a trivial matter. You see, I can just use my personal connections to get it done. It is not as serious as you guys say...

At most, it's just to create some public opinion, that is, to swear an oath to go to war. This is also very simple. Firstly, there is a family feud, and secondly, you can just make some righteousness or something to hold it on your head. Isn't it done?

I heard that Liu Biao is dying. He hasn't been in charge of government for a long time. What are you afraid of?

But the problem is that other people don't see it that way.

Sun Shiwan tried every means to show that this was a trivial matter, but in fact once troops were sent out, it would not be a trivial matter.

Where did the soldiers come from? Where to get food and grass? Who will command these many soldiers, and how will they be distributed after Jiangxia is captured? A series of questions are all problems.

More importantly, now that Jiang Dong has finally suppressed a group of big and small monkeys from the Sun family, is he now taking the initiative to unchain the monkeys and give them a chance to become full-fledged again?

How to check and balance, how to control, this is naturally not a trivial matter for the Jiangdong family, so they broke up on bad terms again!

Sun Quan returned to his studio angrily. Not long after he sat down, he kicked down the desk angrily. Fortunately, he resisted the urge to chop down the desk with a knife, otherwise he would have to replace it with a new one. Another burst of gossip is inevitable. Just like the national prince of later generations changing tables, it is a hot topic on the headlines.

At this time, the servants serving around him would always avoid him with great discernment, neither far nor near. They would not appear in Sun Quan's sight and become angry, nor would they be unable to hear Sun Quan's shouts. The so-called survival of the fittest is vividly displayed here. Those reckless and brainless guys have long been buried under the flowers and trees in that place to make fertilizer.

"Your Majesty, Doctor Lu wants to see you..." The steward gritted his teeth and reported the report outside the pavilion.

Sun Quan had a stinky face and was silent for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "Please!" 』

When Lu Su came, he saluted calmly in the hall, then stepped forward to salute again: "I have met my lord." 』

"Zijing, sit down..." Sun Quan first had tea served, then waited for the servant to step back again, then frowned and said, "Why didn't Zijing say anything to help me just now?" 』

Lu Su smiled slightly and said, "My lord, that's wrong!" Su has secretly helped the Lord! 』

"Where do you mean it?" ” Sun Quan shook his sleeves and asked a little strangely.

Lu Su's smile remained unchanged and he said: "Just now, in front of everyone in the court, if you are so solemn and silent, there must be a fight..."

Sun Quan was stunned for a moment, and then he slapped the table with a "pop" sound, "If Zijing hadn't reminded me, so-and-so..." Sun Quan was actually not that stupid, but he was a little impatient and forgot about the small things decided at the meeting. The small meeting set the rules for major events, and hurriedly wanted to decide the matter of sending troops to Jiangxia in public. This would naturally be useless. After all, Sun Quan's people were not monolithic, and everyone had their own interests.

In fact, many people are silent, which just represents a certain opinion. However, everyone knows that if they speak out, they will inevitably receive veto and doubt from the other party, so it is better to reach a certain compromise and agreement in private, and then in the conference Put it to a referendum, that would be perfect.

Sun Quan suddenly understood and laughed and said to Lu Su, "Zijing is really smart!" In this case, who does Zijing value? 』

"If the lord wants to send troops, the first priority is Zhang Zhao and Zhang Zibu!" Lu Su said in a deep voice.

Sun Quan was a little surprised. He thought Lu Su would talk about Zhou Yu. After all, Zhou Yu had greater influence among the Sun family's soldiers, and if troops were to be sent to Jiangxia now, it would obviously be more appropriate for Zhou Yu to lead them, although sometimes Sun Quan also disliked Zhou Yu.

"My lord, the troops and horses have not yet used the food and fodder..." Lu Su said, "Zhu Gu and his ilk can only be defeated by Zi Bu..."

Sun Quan was stunned.

Zhang Zhao is basically equivalent to Sun Quan's internal affairs manager of people's livelihood, logistics, etc., while Zhou Yu is mostly in charge of the military. Of course there is no problem in fighting, but if Zhou Yu is asked to talk to the Jiangdong family about the amount of food and grass supply, after victory in the future The distribution ratio and so on are not impossible, but it is always a matter of professional mismatch, and Zhang Zhao is familiar with the twists and turns, so it is certainly much easier to talk than Zhou Yu.

At the same time, if we really want to send troops, Zhang Zhao will also need to make overall arrangements for the preparation and transportation of grain and grass. In addition, if Zhang Zhao agrees, it will be simple to go to Zhou Yu. After all, the original main conflict between Zhou Yu and Sun Quan was also due to Sun Quan's random messing around. If Sun Quan had an overall strategic arrangement and agreed with Jiangdong and his gang, Zhou Yu would naturally not be able to object.

After all, Jiang Xia is also a scar on the Sun family's heart.

Sun Quan laughed, stepped forward and took Lu Su's hand, "Very good, very good!" He immediately called... No, go find Zibu! It can be said that Zi respects great talents and understands the situation. It is really because Zi Fang is still alive! 』
