"General Zhao wakes up, Sikong calls you to inspect Xiakou City. It's not too late to rest after entering the city."

The next morning, Zhao Yun was woken up in a rare state of intoxication. Two days ago, he rushed from Jiangling to Xiakou, and the cavalry troops were very tired. Under Li Su's reception, Zhao Yun even drank too much.

Of course, he was very self-disciplined and could not be called a hangover, and he woke up as soon as he shouted.

After hearing the greetings of the servants beside him, Zhao Yun woke up and felt a little surprised, and then he felt relieved that he had long been used to surprise.

Beha did what he said again!

When he was drinking yesterday, he seemed to say, "Let's relax and rest for a few days, and see if I break my summer mouth."

As a result, there were no "several days"! It was obvious that Xiakou had already taken it down after a sleep!

"Huh...forget it, after so many years, I have been accustomed to Boya's repeated strange plans. No matter how strange plans are, I have been used to it even more many." Zhao Yun washed up briefly, drank a bowl of hot tea handed to him by the servant, and sighed with relief.

The tea he drank was not the brown sugar milk tea that Zhou Yu and other elegant people used to drink before, but pure semi-fermented, sugar-free and milk-free bitter tea.

The senior civil and military officials in Liu Bei's army have been accustomed to drinking milk tea six years ago. As they drink, they have become more and more experienced. They have become accustomed to the bitter taste in tea, and their dependence on milk and sugar has gradually decreased.

They generally found that tea with milk candy was more refreshing and the texture after slightly fermentation was more nourishing. The tea taste and style of drinking tea were also higher than those of the officials of the Kanto princes, and there was a tendency to form a chain of contempt.

In addition, the preservation and storage technology of this era is not good, so tea will be fermented more or less, making it difficult to store green tea without fermentation for a long time. So everyone started to drink oolong tea, Dianhong, and deep fermentation black tea (similar to Pu'er tea) to sober up and nourish the stomach.

After eating some food in the big tent, Zhao Yun rode his horse into the city and inspected Xiakou with Li Su to inspect the situation.

Only more than a thousand auxiliary soldiers guarding the city and captured peasant soldiers, which really had no military value, so Li Su just took a rough review with Zhao Yun, and ordered these people to be identified and then dismissed to the peasant.

Zhao Yun slept too deeply last night and did not hear the movement of Dian Wei leading his troops to attack the city. He asked Li Su about the specific situation of the battle. Li Su said lightly, saying that all the victory was in the plan and there was nothing good to be surprised. Since Xiakou was broken, the news of Lu Meng's complete defeat in the army was probably about to be transmitted back.

It was busy until noon. Li Su heard that Zhao Yun just ate some casually in the morning, so he kept him and waited for news together. He was quite imposing in the later generations of Xie An, who had left Zhang Xuan to drink and play chess and waited for the results of the battle of the Lishui battle—

If Zhao Yun and his martial artists didn't know how to play chess, Li Su would definitely have dragged him to play chess.

Now, it can only be changed to Li Su who accompanied Zhao Yun to drink, and then find his own business to play chess.

The banquet was placed in the county magistrate's house. In order to suit the time to set up the gantry formation, the dishes were all casual and elegant, and not easy to eat quickly. It was rare that even shrimps and crabs were cooked several dishes, which made Zhao Yun, a northerner, very uncomfortable.

Sometimes he was suspicious: Boya's ancestral home is Zhongshan County, and he was also from the north. How could he eat shrimps, crabs and southern aquatic products so leisurely? Even if there was a maid who followed him to peel shrimps, crabs and crabs for him.

In the afternoon, before three o'clock, the wine and chess were in full swing, and Huang Zhong finally rode back to Xiakou City on a fast horse, carrying a white cloth bag in his hand.

He didn't let anyone pass on the details, just said that Huang Zhong came back to report his life, and then rushed in, as if he wanted to surprise Li Su, but he didn't want to spread the specific military achievements by verbally speaking.

Everyone wants to make themselves the most glorious moments of such pretentiousness.

When he walked into the banquet hall, before Huang Zhong could speak, Li Suxian took Go and put another hand on the chessboard. Zhang Song on the opposite side looked admiring expression (pretending) with "Sikong's chess skills are really superb". Li Su didn't raise his head and asked, "I'm here now, I'm afraid that Lu Meng is struggling to resist for a long time, and he doesn't know the current affairs?"

Li Su was still familiar with the maps of Liangzi Lake and Jiuling Mountain in his heart, and he knew the speed and distance of the marching. If Lu Meng was blocked and frightened and gave up resisting, it would definitely not take so much trouble. From the perspective of time, it would be at least one or two fierce battles.

Huang Zhong threw away the head of Xiahou Yuan in the TV series "New Three Kingdoms" and threw away the head of the man "bang":

"Sikong is indeed a clever idea. Lu Meng is not aware of the current affairs. We have given him two chances. Xiakou City broke and scared him. General Zhou Liangzihukou blocked him and refused to let him go to E County. Another time, he insisted on surrendering, so he could only do so.

Fortunately, after killing Lu Meng alone, the remaining Wu soldiers were aware of the current affairs. They captured two thousand people, and all surrendered."

Li Su put down the chess piece and nodded: "Well, that's it. Lu Meng is a man who is stupid in war and is considered a general. However, since he has no view of the overall situation and does not want to study to improve his overall situation, there is nothing to regret. General Huang stopped killing and surrendered thousands of people by killing one person. "

Of course, Li Su felt a little regretful in his heart. After all, Lu Meng has good military talent, so he can use it if he can. But since his position is irreconcilable, he will kill him.

He never used the philatelic traveler like those philatelics, and would not treat people as human beings with famous historical figures, because Li Su knew very well that the survivors would not fall into that misunderstanding.

History is created by the people, not just by kings, princes, generals and ministers. Kings, princes, generals and ministers have only become representatives of the interests and positions of some people under a specific historical environment and period.

Huang Zhong decisively shot Lu Meng to make the remaining people surrender quickly, and those people's lives are also fate.

On the other hand, Li Su is also quite despised by those who are treacherous - of course, he is not saying that he always despises the conspiracy and tricks of the soldiers. His style and values ​​of his previous life were that he wanted to distinguish diplomacy, contract negotiation and tricks from tricks.

The existence of diplomatic channels and social commercial credit is originally intended to allow humans to have a mechanism for communication and mutual trust, so that they can establish a credit society and improve the efficiency of communication and cooperation in the whole society.

It’s like no business or traitor, which does not mean that you don’t need to “focus on contracts and keep your trust”. Use traitor is used within the framework of diplomatic, legal and social communication mechanisms, otherwise the foundation for international and social cooperation will be gone—

These things are not only needed by the victims, but also by the fraudster themselves. Just like those who use business strategies, you must also protect your business interests in a world with the "Contract Law". You cannot directly smash the "Contract Law" together for the sake of using strategies.

In order to make a one-time deal, destroying a social mutual trust and cooperation mechanism that he will use in the future, this is what Li Su despises the most. Li Su studied negotiations in his previous life, but the historical figure he looked down upon the most was Zhang Yi, because Zhang Yi had no technical content and was a one-time deal.

Who can't tell me if I don't care about my words? It's just that Zhang Yi saw a chance to think that "as long as this lie is done, Qin will no longer need to have any diplomatic credit in the future, because the remaining part of the world will not be able to beat Qin together" to maximize the benefits of his openly speaking and not keeping his words. Then he didn't care about "there is no more diplomatic in the future world."

Of course, these are a bit far-reaching. Now no one in Xiakou City can understand Li Su, and it is not necessary to use it if you understand it. There is no need to talk about it.

When the troops return to the court in the future and get in-depth talks with Liu Bei, they can talk in depth and bring Zhuge Liang together. This involves how to rebuild international and social order after the war and reduce the loss of mutual trust within society.

...

Li Su recognized Huang Zhong's contribution and expressed that after the battle was completely over, he would definitely comment to the emperor to further promote Huang Zhong.

Huang Zhong has now joined forces with Taishi Ci to defeat Sun Ce's main force in the naval army and shoot Sun Ce. Now he has completely wiped out Xiakou's breakthrough enemy troops, and three contributions are waiting for promotion and reward.

But who has asked the territory of several counties to quickly enter the enclosure? It was all the credits that were picked up on the ground for free, so it was not bad for one or two months. Huang Zhong himself was not in a hurry, and he wanted to take the opportunity to get more. At that time, he would increase his merits and reward them at one time.

The entire army was full of momentum. Under Li Su's distribution, in the late first lunar month, a land battle to chase the death and chase the north was launched.

Taishici was the fastest mover and had already left a day ahead of schedule. Huang Zhong, Zhou Tai, and Zhao Yun who came from afar, all needed a little repair and recovery.

So starting from the 22nd day of the first lunar month, it was Zhao Yun's turn to take two thousand cavalry and a few sailors along the south bank of the Yangtze River to Chaisang first, then go up the Ganjiang River to collect the farthest Luling, and then forcefully substitute Huang Zu and talk to Huang Zu about the conditions. If he knows the times and returns, it's best.

The Ganjiang River flow is not very large, and the mountainous areas have a relatively high drop, so the navy is not as fast as the cavalry running along the river bank as the cavalry. It is estimated that the resistance will be relatively weak along the way. Zhao Yun can raise grain on the spot, so he will be able to enclose land faster.

On the 23rd and 24th day of the first lunar month, Huang Zhong and Zhou Tai also led thousands of troops and divided the counties along the way. This was mainly because Zhou Tai fought the most fiercely in the battle to intercept Lu Meng, and the troops needed the longest rest.

Li Su himself did not continue to move forward, but was in charge of Xiakou. He had to be wary of Cao Cao on the north bank of the Yangtze River. If Cao Cao suddenly got rid of his brain, he helped Sun Quan stand out. Xiakou is the thoroughfare of Jianghan, and it is a key point that Huainan and Jiangdong go to Jingzhou. Li Su himself could stop Cao Cao and make plans.

When Zhao Yun arrived in Chaisang, Chaisang City had been surrounded by Taishi Ci for two days. The two of them decided to break Chaisang City at the moment, and it was the key to try to encircle and break more land and confront Zhou Yu's main force.

Therefore, Taishici temporarily handed over the work of surrounding Chaisang to Zhao Yun, and he led 15,000 people to continue eastward.

On the 27th day of the first lunar month, Huang Zhong and Zhou Tai also arrived in Chaisang one after another, took over the encirclement mission, and Zhao Yun went to Luling.

In fact, there were not many elite soldiers and generals left in Chaisang City. Zhou Yu withdrew all the main forces who were to be preserved. He knew that sooner or later this place was attacked by the enemy from both sides and inside and outside, and could not be defended at all.

There were some people who were stubborn and hard-working in the Chaisang army who always felt that they could still fight. When the Han army saw them as if nothing was there or entering a no-man situation, they were divided into troops and decided to set the cities behind them, and they were not afraid that the Chaisang army would cut off their food route.

So, on the 29th day of the first lunar month, the Chaisang Army was a little unbeliever. Seeing the Han army transporting grain to Taishi Ci, the fleet with few warriors escorted through the mouth of Poyang Lake, they went out to test the robbery and show their value.

The result was of course that these eyes were completely wiped out by Zhou Tai.

Two days later, on the second day of the second month, it was reported that Huang Zu had completely surrendered and was willing to surrender to Zhao Yun, but only required the prefect to retain the treatment of the prefect and could give up actual control of the territory of Luling County.

Zhao Yun agreed to Huang Zu's conditions, so the entire territory of Luling surrendered. After receiving the surrender, Zhao Yun discovered that Huang Zu was also facing internal and external troubles, so he was forced to surrender so quickly.

The middle-level officials in the Luling County officialdom seem to have some disciples and officials who were living when Zhuge Xuan was alive. These middle-level civil and military officials heard that after Zhao Yun came, they were completely likely to be internal support. Huang Zu imagined what the consequences would be if he was a desperate man.

Since Huang Zu and Luling County have all surrendered, there are several counties left in Yuzhang, including the core area of ​​Chaisang, and of course they can't hold on. On the third day of the second month, the civil and military officials in Chaisang City also reached an agreement to clear out a few dead men, and then open the door to welcome the king's army.

On the sixth day of the second month, Jiangxia, Yuzhang, Luling and Poyang returned to Han. Taishici led 15,000 troops to confront Zhou Yu and Zhu Zhi at Wankou. At the same time, Cao's army appeared on the north bank of the river to help Zhu Zhi assist in defense. It should be impossible to continue to advance for the time being.
