"Is it the master of the Chinese army?"

Seeing Li Li's figure gradually disappear, Jia Xu whispered to himself thoughtfully.

Guo Jia bowed his head lightly when he heard this, and said in a low voice: "This may be the best solution at the moment." Although he did not have the right to lead the troops, he stayed by the lord's side and became a close confidant, neither high nor low, which was elusive. ”

"Well, Feng Xiao's words are reasonable."

Jia Xu nodded happily in understanding, and then walked to the railing side by side with Guo Jia, looking north with a complicated expression.

"What Zhou Yu did this time was indeed a bit excessive, and it obviously angered the lord. If it weren't for his outstanding military achievements and the fact that he had a brother-in-law with the lord, I was afraid that he would be in trouble this time and would not be able to retreat with his whole body. Holding on to the railing and looking into the distance, Jia Xu said softly.

Guo Jia nodded lightly and sighed: "Yes, let go of nearly 10,000 remnants of the army such as Sun Ce and Jiang Qi, and mistakenly killed thousands of Hanoi soldiers, this crime is not light!" Setting up with the enemy in front of the battle and wantonly killing and surrendering troops is tantamount to betrayal and rebellion, and it is a heinous and heinous crime. If he commits such a big mistake as another general, he will be dismissed from his post at the least, demoted to a soldier after being reprimanded with a cane, or lose his life and his family will be ruined.

However, this matter was done by Zhou Yu. He is regarded by the soldiers of our army as the first general under the command of the lord, and the subtlety of the use of soldiers and the outstanding military exploits are only under the lord, and he is deeply appreciated and trusted by the lord. In just one year, he was promoted from Juchao Ling to Zhonglang General, and after going out with the army, he became the deputy general of the Chinese army. Then he pacified the Southern Xiongnu, recovered the whole territory of the state, made many military exploits, and was promoted to the general of Anbei. He is the head of the generals of our army. Since then, his official position has been above that of Major General Li Xian, and the respect of his status is second only to that of the lord, as if he is above 10,000 people under one person.

After this battle, if Zhou Yu does not make mistakes, he will definitely be promoted again and officially become the general of the four towns. Surpassing Jiuqing, the position is higher than the three dukes. Such an outstanding person is rare in a century. It can be called a talent of heaven and earth, which is really amazing! ”

"Oh?" Jia Xu turned his head to look at Guo Jia with a stunned expression, and said suspiciously: "Listening to the meaning of filial piety, it seems to mean something else." Isn't there a hidden secret in this? ”

Guo Jia smiled slightly. His eyes burned and Jia Xu glanced at each other, and chuckled: "How can this matter be hidden from Brother Wen He's eyes?" Now, my brother is just in the game, judging things by facts, and he doesn't think much about it. If Brother Wen and Brother jump out of the game and stay out of the matter, it is not difficult to see that there is something else strange about this matter, and there are many intriguing doubts hidden in it. Meanwhile. The lord's attitude towards this matter is also worth considering, and the lord's righteous brother Lu Su seems to have done nothing. But it's critical. If he hadn't been involved, I'm afraid Zhou Yu would have been speechless this time, and even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he wouldn't be able to clear up the charge of arsoning with the enemy.

However, it was precisely because of Lu Su's involvement that the Anyi War was very clear. At first glance, Zhou Yu seems to be suspected of deliberately setting up with the enemy, but there is no real evidence, he only needs to say that he does not know that Yang Chou has led his troops to surrender, and he can push the blame cleanly. And his remarks, with Lu Su as evidence, can lightly get rid of the charge of arson, and turn the fault into a mistake. In this way, although he is guilty of crimes, he will not endanger his life. From this point of view, General Zhou Yu is indeed wise, well versed in the world, and is a general who knows how to advance and retreat and knows how to protect himself! ”

After Guo Jia's reminder, Jia Xu's expression changed sharply while being stunned, and then he suddenly realized.

"What a Zhou Yu Zhou Gongjin!" After thinking about the reason, Jia Xu couldn't help but admire, and an inexplicable look of surprise appeared on his face.

After calming down, Jia Xu looked at Guo Jia and nodded lightly to show his gratitude, and then looked at the direction where Anyi City was located with deep eyes, and whispered in a rather admiring tone: "Zhou Yu was able to jump from a county official to a general of Anbei comparable to Jiuqing in just ten months, and it can be described as a miracle, the first of its kind, which has never been seen in ancient times. Including me Jia Xu, many civil and military generals in my Xiliang Army thought that the reason why he was able to jump to such a high position in such a short period of time was purely due to the appreciation and cultivation of the lord, otherwise he would not have been promoted so quickly even if he had the ability to pass through the heavens and latitudes.

For this reason, I am also faintly worried about him, because of his repeated miraculous feats and outstanding military achievements, the lord will inevitably reward him for his meritorious deeds and make him a knight again. Since then, his situation has been a little bad, and the position above ten thousand people under one person is not something that anyone can sit on, and the slightest carelessness will become the target of public criticism.

Previously, Major General Li Xian was in this position, and the generals in the army and the civil servants naturally had no objections, because Li Xian was the younger brother of the lord and was under the lord alone, and his name was justified and no one was unconvinced. However, if Zhou Yu, who had just joined the army, was a very popular minister, above all the generals of our army, even if he made great achievements, I am afraid that it would be difficult to be convincing, and it was inevitable that some people would be dissatisfied with him, and then become the target of being squeezed and attacked. As the saying goes: open guns are easy to dodge, and dark arrows are difficult to defend. Too young, but in a high position, no matter what his talents, he will inevitably be jealous, so that he can be mired in the quagmire of power struggle, and he cannot extricate himself. And this is by no means a good thing for Zhou Yu, so at this time, he needs to retreat by himself, you must know that the rapid retreat is called the opportunity, and the wise self-preservation is the real smart person. ”

Speaking of this, Jia Xu and Guo Jia nodded at each other, and their originally somewhat solemn expressions were relaxed, revealing a knowing smile.

In addition to being relieved, Jia Xu smiled and said: "Before that, you and I were both worried that Zhou Yu would be pampered and arrogant, too sharp, and easy to be framed by villains. In addition, since he led the army alone, he has used his troops in a good way, repeatedly made military exploits, pacified Shuofang with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, lightly annexed the state, and now he has led the army to recover the two counties of Hedong and Hanoi. Such military exploits are not inconspicuous, and it is not an exaggeration to add them to the rank of knight, and it is not impossible to even directly promote them to the position of the third duke.

However, although the results of the Battle of Sili and the decisive battle of Loudiyuan were also complete victories and fruitful gains, they were slightly bleak compared with the soaring advance of Zhou Yu's army. In terms of territory and the results on the surface, Zhou Yu's army recovered the vast territory of the Southern Xiongnu and the entire territory of Bingzhou, and won hundreds of thousands of people and 100,000 soldiers and horses of Bingzhou; However, in the battle of Sili, we have continuously lost cities and land, and until now we have also lost the land of Henan and Luoyang counties. Compared with the two, we are much inferior.

These achievements on the bright side invisibly made Zhou Yu too sharp and outstanding, not only making great achievements, but also covering the limelight of the lord, which inevitably caused some suspicion of taking the lead and shaking the master. And this is precisely the taboo in the life of our ministers, what it means to be a high meritorious, but no one knows who is a learned person. Those who are in such a situation, regardless of whether the Lord is wise or not, whether they are tolerant or generous, must retreat bravely and wisely to protect themselves, otherwise they will be calculated by villains.

For this reason, we have been secretly worried about Zhou Yu, fearing that he does not know the benefits and disadvantages, and does not know the way to advance and retreat. However, now it seems that we are worrying for nothing. Zhou Yu is far more intelligent and wise than we imagined, and perhaps he had already begun to seek a retreat for himself when he captured the entire territory of the state. As a result, the battle of Anyi happened to send him a step, and he borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and pour some dirty water on himself, so as to cover up his previous great achievements. ”

In a pause, Jia Xu's words changed sharply: "It's just that Zhou Yu's choice of retreat this time is a bit unexpected by us, it is really a dangerous move, the sword is biased, and the slightest carelessness will affect his own life." Fortunately, he met a rare master in the world, such as the lord, and his mind was beyond limit. In the face of Zhou Yu making such a big mistake, the lord took it lightly and did not pursue it. This should be Zhou Yu's luck, and it is also our great luck! ”

After listening to Jia Xu's words, Guo Jiaxin smiled, then shook his head slightly, turned his head to look around the city tower, and said to Jia Xu in a low voice: "Brother Wen He's words are a bit evasive. In fact, both you and I understand that even if Zhou Yu didn't think about borrowing the slope to get off the donkey and retreat bravely from the rapids this time, as long as he didn't kill Sun Ce after the war, he would inevitably get into trouble, and he would be speechless and suffering. Afterwards, he still could not avoid being stained, giving people a handle, and being attacked, and the result was to keep the current official title, and get some gold and silver rewards, and there would be no more rewards for adding officials to the knighthood.

And this qiē stemmed from the fact that the lord had already arranged the war situation in Hedong, and did not inform Zhou Yu in advance, keeping him in the dark, and unknowingly trapped in it and unable to extricate himself. At the same time, the lord's move had another purpose, that is, he wanted to use Zhou Yu's hand to capture and kill Sun Ce, and the worst result was to prompt Zhou Yu and Sun Ce to completely break up, so as to eliminate hidden dangers. ”

After a pause in his voice, the smile on Guo Jia's face quickly faded, and he said with a solemn expression: "It is true that the lord promised Zhou Yu before that he would not kill Sun Ce, so Sun Ce was able to survive during the battle of Dongyuan City. However, the lord couldn't do it himself, but he could secretly trick Zhou Yu to cut off Sun Ce himself, so that he could not violate the oath of the day, but also achieve his goal. The best of both worlds, why not?

However, Zhou Yu is Zhou Yu after all, maybe he has already understood the true intention of the lord when he received the military order from the lord. Although he didn't know that the lord had other arrangements, he knew that the lord forced him to show his heart and officially make a break with Sun Ce. So, he followed the lord's intentions and secretly reached a secret discussion with Sun Ce, and specially invited Lu Su to testify. ”

“?????? And Lu Su, the righteous brother of the lord, is a truly wise and foolish person, he helped Zhou Yu realize his plan, and he already knew the whereabouts of Yan Xing and others, but he always remained silent and sat back and watched the situation change. When Zhou Yu lost control due to excitement and anger, Lu Su immediately assisted Yan Xing to take over the army, and simply relieved Zhou Yu of his military power.

As a result, under a melee in Anyi City, Sun Ce was besieged, but instead of reaping the slightest benefit, he lost tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and then fled for his life in a hurry, and no longer dared to stay in the territory of Sili. ”
