Spoiler History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 127

"Liang gave Sun Quan an emperor title and came back?"

Kong Ming couldn't figure out how much the lord's uncle's proclaiming emperor had anything to do with him?

"As expected of a military division!"

Zhang Fei gave Kong Ming a thumbs up, which is also a gesture of appreciation learned from the light curtain.

Kong Ming didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he just wanted to see what was going on.

【Among the prime minister's Northern Expedition, if it's weird, it's the second time.

In the spring of 228, the prime minister sent troops out of Qishan for the first time, and then the loss of Jieting caused the situation to collapse, and he had to retreat to Hanzhong.

In December of the same year, the prime minister sent troops out of Chencang again, and then played with Hao Zhao for a month before attacking the city and retreating.

This is the most paradoxical Northern Expedition to send troops out of Chencang.

First of all, the time is wrong. December is the standard mid-winter, which was extremely unsuitable for sending troops in ancient times.

Getting lost, frostbite, and supplies in winter are big problems.

In the cold weather, I have to eat more to keep out the cold, and charcoal winter clothes are additional expenses.

Even if the old warehouse is laid down, it will be difficult to do anything in this place.

To the west of Chencang is the Long Road to Longyou, where Guo Huai and his Shangyu City are waiting.

Where is Chencang heading east?Three hundred miles away in the Guanzhong Plain, Cao Wei's cavalry could easily kill the prime minister's infantry.

Cao Zhen had previously judged after pacifying Longyou:

Qi Shan was defeated and would not come back again.

The fire burned the plank road, and the ramp was blocked.

If you are tackling a key problem, you must go to Chencang.

Who keeps the old warehouse?Only Hao Zhao.

Cao Zhen's judgment was very accurate, but he probably never thought that the prime minister would attack Chencang in the cold winter months.

The second is that the attitude of siege is wrong.

This kind of time that no one expected appeared in Chen Cang. Logically speaking, it should focus on the unexpected quick attack.

But the prime minister didn't, and politely sent Hao Zhao's fellow villager Jin Xiang to persuade him to surrender.

Moreover, he persuaded him to capitulate twice, which made Hao Zhao, who was startled, take sufficient precautions.

Then the two sides began to pose:

You push the ladder and I release the rocket, you drive the car and I pile the stone mill.

If you build a well, I will build the urn city, and if you dig a tunnel, I will also dig a tunnel.

The two sides can be said to have a variety of tricks, and they had a great time playing.

But such a big momentum made Cao Rui panic. He hurriedly summoned Zhang Yun who had made great achievements last time, rewarded the army with wine and meat, and asked Zhang Yun to support him.

And Zhang He was also calm and calm, and bravely made a judgment:
I figured out that Zhuge Villager didn't have enough food and grass, and most likely they would leave before I arrived.

And sure enough, the prime minister withdrew when Zhang Yun was still halfway.

Even when he retreated, he still had enough strength to backhand Zhang Xi's vanguard general Wang Shuang. 】

"It's really strange."

Guan Yu twirled his beard thinking.

As a northerner, Guan Yu is no stranger to Yan Dong.

Let alone siege in this kind of weather, you can be regarded as a good general if you can keep the soldiers from making trouble.

"Unless...the dispatch of troops this time is intended for something." Guan Yu said to himself.

It would make sense if it was not intended to gain anything from the battlefield in the first place.

"Respond to Jiangdong?"

This is the only possibility Guan Yu can guess and analyze:
"Since Zhang He was called for support, Zhang He should not have been in Guanzhong before, but he was approaching Luoyang...should he be stationed in Xiangfan?"

"General Guan is discerning." Kong Ming could only praise:

"It should be like this, creating momentum to ease the crisis in Jiangdong."

Zhang Fei didn't bother to comment on his cheap brother-in-law, so he just glanced at Ma Di behind him and said:

"Learn how to defend the city!"

There are only a few words on the light curtain, but Zhang Fei can naturally construct a fierce siege battlefield in his mind.

Ma Di didn't dare to say anything, so he could only nod his head in agreement.

"What a delicate ladder!" Huang Yueying praised.

As a person obsessed with craftsmanship, she naturally knows about ladders.

But those ladders are not as delicate as those in the light curtain.

It can be folded, can hide soldiers, has a front shield, and a top-mounted grappling hook.

It is completely different from the long ladders built on the spot in the current army.

"The things made by my husband are really exquisite and exquisite!"

Huang Yueying praised.

Kong Ming was a little uncertain: I really made this thing?

It's not that Kong Ming is not confident, but that the three things in the light curtain, the well, the ladder, and the car, are quite different from what they are now.

Each one looks both functional and sophisticated.

The roads in Hanzhong are still difficult to transport grain, how can these behemoths be transported there?
But... Kong Ming hesitated for a moment, and then began to copy.

Regardless of him, anyway, learn first.

As for the way that the defenders used the tarpaulin on the head of the arrow to shoot it, Kong Ming didn't think it was unusual.

After researching the eight-ox crossbow last year, Kong Ming equipped it with a kind of fire crossbow bolt. Tung oil is injected into the hollow of the crossbow bolt.

General Huang is quite fond of it.

[It depends on why the Prime Minister made a strange call out of Chen Cang.

That would involve one of the unsolved cases of the Three Kingdoms to this day: Is "Hou Shi Biao" a forgery?

There is no need to say too much about how successful the former teacher is. Anyone who understands "needs to recite the full text" will understand.

Then, if it sounds good, it means loyalty and heroism, but if it sounds bad, it means full of negative energy.

It was only a year before and after. If you don't look at the Northern Expedition, you would think that the prime minister's defeat was like Yiling's defeat, and the entire army was wiped out.

But in fact, as we said before, after the prime minister beheaded Ma Di and returned, everyone in Shu thought it was a big victory.

Those who came to congratulate broke the threshold, forcing the prime minister to even write "Thanks to the Congratulators".

In this case, Liu Chan felt that Father Xiang had done his best, and Shu Zhong felt that the Prime Minister was really good.

The soldiers felt that they were forced to cheat Ma Su by vegetables, which led to the failure of their efforts. 】

Ma Di lowered his head and even wanted to plug his ears.

But Zhang Fei pinched his chin and forcibly lifted it up and said:

"My elder brother has already said, Xiaochang, you must be brave despite defeat, and seek strength from the weak."

[In fact, if the prime minister is really so easily depressed, there will be no stars falling to Wuzhangyuan.

Moreover, it is indeed strange that this back table is not found in the history books of central Shu, but is included in Jiangdong Anthology.

But what if this postscript was originally written for Jiang Dong?

In 224, on the eve of the resumption of the alliance between Han and Wu, Jiangdong Fuyi Zhonglang sent Zhang Wen to Chengdu under the entrustment of Sun Quan.

At that time, he once said to Liu Chan'er that "commitment and cooperation are like rivers", which shows that Jiangdong used the coordinated dispatch of troops by the two parties as a bargaining chip to negotiate.

So in the prime minister's plan, the beginning of 228 should look like this:

In the west, the prime minister led the army out of Mount Qi, Meng Da near Jingxiang rebelled, and in the east, he crossed the Yangtze River in the east as a deterrent.

How can Cao Wei take care of the three-way attack? 】

"But something went wrong."

Guan Yu regretted:

"If this plan succeeds, Zhang Yun should be dragged in Jingxiang and cannot move. Even if Cao Zhen sends troops to support Guanzhong, he will not be able to gather many troops."

"In this way, the time for the military division to attack Bei will be wider, maybe..."

Maybe Guan Yu didn't say anything clearly, but everyone knows it.

So everyone in the hall sighed.

The same is true for Kong Ming, who suddenly remembered what Pang Tong said earlier.
"You just think that revitalizing the Han Dynasty is the most important thing, and you can't lose allies!"

Could it be that he really tolerated Jiang Dong too much?
As for whether the back table is real or not, Kong Ming doesn't care at all.

He is Zhuge Liang, the truth of this appearance is only a matter of his thought.

Kong Ming sighed because he couldn't understand, such a good game, a complete cooperation would benefit both sides.

Indeed, as Yun Chang said before, Jiangdong doesn't even need to fight. It only needs to station heavy troops in the north of the Yangtze River, and the momentum of attack is enough.

Why can something go wrong with this?

[It is well known that King Wu of the Great Wei has three hobbies:

Backstab, recognize the master, proclaim the emperor.

Sun Quan has always been unwilling to play a supporting role. For example, when Xiaoyaojin retreated, he had to play a role in himself, but Zhang Liao was attracted.

The same is true for the Northern Expedition facing the prime minister. Sun Quan is 46 years old.

After Yiling, it did not dare to claim the title of emperor because that lunatic Liu Bei was still alive.

But now?Zhuge Liang is a generalist, and Cao Rui has just ascended the throne. When will he be called emperor if he is not proclaimed at this time?
But at this time, if you want to become emperor, you are still short of a good military exploit, and it just so happens that Zhuge Liang sent the news of the Northern Expedition.

So Great Wei Wu Wang decided to be a big one, he wanted to play the leading role!

Sun Quan secretly sent a letter to Zhou Bing to ask him to find some Shanyue people, go to Cao Wei to feign surrender, and attract them to be big voters!
Zhou bream thought for a while, the more unreliable the mountain, why not climb it by myself!
On the one hand, Zhou Brem wrote several letters to Cao Xiulian to praise Cao Xiu and scold Sun Quan.

On the other side, Zhou Dory and Sun Quan joined forces to play a bitter trick, cutting off his own hair and kneeling at the door of Sun Quan's envoy to plead guilty.

So Cao Xiu was convinced, and he brought the army to claim the credit without stopping.

Of course, there is no shortage of smart people in the Three Kingdoms. Jiang Ji, who is full of love, can see that there is a problem, but Cao Xiu doesn't listen.

Of course, it's not just because Cao Xiu is stupid, but because Commander Cao Wei and Sun Quan have the same idea:
"Why can't I play the leading role?"]

"Light curtain geographical map, very easy to use!"

No matter how many times you watch Guan Yu, you must praise him.

Because he has been training sailors recently, looking at Cao Xiu's marching route marked on the light curtain, Guan Yu also noticed the problem at a glance:
"Marching in this way, facing the great lake in the north, and the Yangtze River on the side, there is no water division!"

"If the Jiangdong navy comes out in full force, Cao Xiu will die!"

No matter how you look at it, Guan Yu thinks it is too risky.

Zhang Fei said quietly:
"I'm suspicious of military strategy, if Cao thief falls for it once, he won't fall for it."

"But why does Jiangdong's bitter plan work this time?"

Although Kong Ming has never seen the word protagonist,
But when it comes to the distinction between primary and secondary, and the context of the light curtain, I still understand:

"The Light Curtain doesn't talk about Cao Xiu, but the commander-in-chief Cao Wei... Could it be that the original plan is to go out both ways?"

This is a better guess, Huang Zhong concluded:

"It should be the Xiangfan garrison!"

"If the two armies from Xiangfan and Hefei go out together, even if Cao Xiu's army falls, there should not be too many casualties."

The reason is very simple, if Xiangfan does not send troops, then Jiangdong's garrison used to defend Xiangfan will naturally be transferred to Cao Xiu and make a big one for him.

Liu Bei replaced Cao Rui with his own perspective, and felt extremely tired, so he couldn't help but say:
"No wonder the text on the light curtain said that if Kong Ming didn't make the Northern Expedition, perhaps Cao Wei would be in chaos."

"Xiangfan and Hefei are both defending Jiangdong. They should be attacking and defending together, but they have plotted against each other so far?"

"Being ministers in the same hall is like the alliance between Wu and Han."

Zhang Fei slapped Huang Zhong's leg again and laughed loudly:

"Brother, you don't care about them! It's a good thing for us to care who wins and who loses!"

　It's not a drag, the essence of the [-] Northern Expedition and Shiting is indeed one.
