Chapter 1694: Liu Yu, who can't sleep peacefully
After Zhou Shang returned to Dangtu City, he found his deputy general and said to him: "From tonight, you will temporarily take up the position of the guard."
The deputy general looked confused and asked in confusion: "General, what do you mean? The last general doesn't understand."
Zhou Shangsa smiled and said, "What else is it? You have been with me for a while. Can't you still see it? It's a waste of my usual exercise for you."
After hearing this, the deputy general went to Sun Ce’s place today, and suddenly realized it and said, “General, it seems that you have been promoted. Congratulations!”
Zhou Shang smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said, "There is no more Gao Sheng. But he followed the Grand Governor."
The deputy general was even more shocked and asked, "Governor? But the cousin you often talk about?"
"No! I got the opportunity to follow my cousin this time. Of course I have to seize it!" Zhou Shang patted the deputy general's shoulder and said, "My cousin said he wanted to arrange a military general to take over. I originally wanted to support you, but since I have said that, I can't say it."
"Then you don't have to let the last general take over as the defender. Isn't it just waiting for the general to come?" The deputy general noticed Zhou Shang's Chinese language disease.
Zhou Shang said with a grudge: "You guy is really stupid! Think about it, now that the war is imminent, and there are so many generals in the army who are eager to fight to make merits. Who would be willing to come to Dangtu City? Even if the commander-in-chief ordered, they would definitely refuse each other. So, if I mention your name in front of the commander-in-chief, wouldn't you just become the guardian of Dangtu? If you want to take over now, you are not willing to do so. Then I'm looking for someone else."
"I do!" The deputy general hurriedly held Zhou Shang's hand, afraid that Zhou Shang would run away.
Zhou Shang knew that the deputy would be willing, and strictly speaking, anyone would be willing. Stopping a person's future is like killing his parents. Zhou Shang promoted his deputy general, which is also the right thing to do.
"Okay, you can arrange it first. By the way, put some obedient ones together. Don't tell me that you don't know how to do it!" Zhou Shang reminded kindly.
The deputy general agreed, then said goodbye to Zhou Shang and left.
Zhou Shang chuckled, and then he walked away. He got the opportunity to follow Zhou Yu and handed Dangtucheng to his deputy general. Even if Zhou Yu really arranged a military general, Dangtucheng would still be in Zhou Shang's hands. Zhou Shang was preparing for his future and future.
"The weather is really good today!" Zhou Shang was in a good mood and hummed a song that others couldn't understand.
That night, Zhou Yu found some generals in the army and asked one of them to stay in Dangtu Danggu. It was the same as Zhou Shang thought, and none of them were willing. Even if Zhou Yu directly ordered, the generals also found many reasons to refuse.
This was the first time Zhou Yu saw that no one was willing to go to his order, and he was very upset. But Zhou Yu was not Sun Ce after all, so he still couldn't do anything that was difficult for others. Zhou Yu didn't want to bother Sun Ce in such a small matter, so he thought about what to do. After all, Zhou Yu had already agreed to Zhou Shang that it would not be possible to not arrange for a general to be a general Tu.
At the critical moment, Zhou Shang returned to Zhou Yu's side? He saw Zhou Yu's sad face.
When Zhou Shang came back, Zhou Yu thought of something to see if anyone in Dangtu City could be a guard for the time being? So he asked: "Lanxian, can there be any material in Dangtu City be made?"
When Zhou Yu heard what he said? Zhou Shang's mind instantly understood that no general was willing to go to Dangtu, and he was very happy. He was happy for his foresight. So Zhou Shang pretended to ponder for a while, and then hesitated: "There is no talent in Dangtu City. However, my deputy general Niu Xi is usually cautious in doing things and working hard."
Too far? Zhou Shang can only do so much.
Zhou Yu thought about it? When no one is willing to be a Tu at present? There is no problem with letting Zhou Shang's deputy general be the guardian for a period of time first, so he said to Zhou Shang: "Since you think it is OK? Then let Niu Xi temporarily take over the position of guardian general. After you have a suitable candidate in the future, you can make arrangements. Work harder and go back and arrange this matter."
If you can arrange this, you can only say it. Generally speaking, as long as you temporarily take over a certain position, then the chance of becoming a regular person is very high. Unless you really seek death and do things in a mess.
Zhou Shang smiled and said, "Cousin, you don't need to go to this matter again. I have already agreed with my deputy general and have asked him to temporarily serve as the lieutenant general. I think no one would be willing to go to Tu."
Zhou Yu's face suddenly turned dark.
Zhou Shang originally thought Zhou Yu would praise him for his intelligence, but Zhou Yu's face made Zhou Shang feel something was wrong.
Zhou Yu took a deep breath and said seriously: "Lan Xian? From today on, if you decide someone's official position privately, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
In the Eastern Wu, only a few people can be appointed and removed from office. Zhou Yu is one, but even Zhou Yu, he has to mention the appointed and removed personnel to Sun Ce, and Sun Ce will give the final instructions. Especially for county magistrates and local magistrates, Sun Ce is even more cautious. Like Zhou Shang, who privately decides about a local magistrate, seems smart, but is smart but is mistaken for cleverness! This is because of Zhou Yu's reasons for his own tribe and actual situation, he has not treated Zhou Shang anyway.
In the past, Zhou Yu pushed Zhou Shang out and cut it off, so how could there be so much nonsense!
Zhou Yu didn't know why he became like this.
Zhou Shang is a smart man. He could hear the seriousness of the matter from Zhou Yu's tone and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you for your care, I will never do it again!"
Seeing that Zhou Shang sincerely admitted his mistake, Zhou Yu said, "You have to remember one thing. In the Kingdom of Wu, only the order of the lord is the most important. Don't think too much about other messy thoughts. Otherwise, I will be sorry for you."
Zhou Shang nodded. He had a lot of benefits on his face, but he really didn't listen.
Some people, if you spare him once, they will feel that you will spare him a second time. This is human nature.
So Zhou Yu thought he had done something right, but in fact he developed Zhou Shang's mentality of luck.
Zhou Yu stopped talking, and went straight to Sun Ce, transferred Zhou Shang to his side, and at the same time handed over the position of being the guardian of Tucheng to the previous deputy general, reporting to Sun Ce.
Sun Ce didn't say much and said casually: "As a great governor, you can decide on things like this."
"Bo Fu, you are the lord, and you have always asked you to make decisions on personnel appointments. You can't set a precedent for me because of me." Zhou Yu refuted Sun Ce on the spot.
Sun Ce said a little indifferently: "Does this still need between you and me?"
Zhou Yu was a little speechless about Sun Ce.
Looking at Zhou Yu's helpless expression, if Sun Ce did not handle it well, he would have preached again, so Sun Ce immediately said, "I have approved this matter. I will definitely ask about these things in the future."
Zhou Yu gave up. This was not for Zhou Yu's own reputation, but also for the interests of Sun Ce. Zhou Yu did not want to affect his relationship with Sun Ce because of such a thing.
After all, during the Warring States Period, the relationship between the monarch and the ministers was very good. Later, I became disgusted. Small things that happened during the honeymoon period could become the crime of beheading. The most typical example is to divide the peach.
During the Warring States Period, Mizixia was very favored in front of Duke Ling of Wei. In the law of Wei, those who drove the monarch privately had to be tortured by cutting off their feet. Mizixia's mother was sick, and someone took the opportunity to tell Mizixia overnight that Mizixia had falsely sent an order to drive the monarch's car. The monarch heard that he thought he was very virtuous and praised him for his filial piety. Another time, Mizixia and the monarch were playing in Taoyuan with the monarch. He picked a peach casually and felt very sweet after eating it, so he gave the unfinished peach to the monarch. The monarch thought that it had eaten good things and specially presented it to him to praise and practice. When Mizixia offended the monarch, the monarch said that he had driven the monarch privately, and let the monarch eat the peach that he had eaten, etc., and punished several crimes, Mizixia became a prisoner.
This allusion can also be said that the king and his subjects must keep a certain distance from each other. Today’s favor does not mean that the same will be true in the future. If you develop the habit of thinking that you have always been a celebrity in front of the king, then you will be the only one who is unlucky.
Zhou Yu has always been very restrained. He did not think that he could get Sun Ce's trust more than Sun Ce's wife. The bottom line that should not be crossed was that Zhou Yu did not even have the desire to test.
Seeing that Zhou Yu had handled the matter well, he stopped disturbing Sun Ce.
Back in the camp, Zhou Yu also sent Zhou Shang away and lay on the bed to have a good rest.
But no matter how much Zhou Yu wanted to sleep, he felt an anxiety inside that made him unable to sleep.
"Hi! The current situation can only be done with all our might! I hope Liu Yu can restrain himself and the Eastern Wu can hold on for a while." Zhou Yu's anxiety was that Liu Yu was going to fight against the Eastern Wu.
Zhou Yu couldn't sleep, but Sun Ce slept soundly.
On the other side of the Yangtze River, there is also a person who can't sleep. This person is Liu Yu in Lujiang City.
Liu Yu had already fallen asleep, but Li Gui woke him up in a hurry. Liu Yu, who was so angry that he woke up, came in with a patient mood.
"Tell me! Is there anything you have to worry about my rest so late? If it's a trivial matter, you know!" Liu Yu was indeed tired, and his tone was a little angry.
Li Gui was Liu Yu and Cao Cao who had been busy all day today and had finally had time to rest for a while. If it were the case before, Li Gui would not dare to disturb Liu Yu, but tonight I received something that could change the entire army, and Li Gui had to come and disturb him.
"Your Majesty, something big happened!" Li Gui took out a piece of white silk and respectfully handed it to Liu Yu, saying, "The pigeons flying by the river, Lu Bu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei broke out from Jianye City. Now they have joined Xu Huang and stationed in Yangcheng."
"What!" Liu Yu stood up, no dissatisfaction or sleepiness.
Li Gui quickly handed the white silk in his hand to Liu Yu. Liu Yu took it and saw that it was indeed written about the story of Lu Bu and his friends breaking through to Yu Yang.
"I actually broke through!" Liu Yu threw the whole white silk hard on the ground and cursed: "I'm sorry for my big deal!"
Lu Bu and his friends broke out from Jianye, completely disrupting Liu Yu and Cao Cao's plans! In Liu Yu's plan, Lu Bu and others defended Jianye City to restrain Sun Ce. In this way, Liu's army could concentrate their superior forces to break through the Eastern Wu naval army arranged by Dongwu in Poyang Lake. Of course, there are many links, but Lu Bu and his friends in Jianye City are the biggest premise!
Now Lu Bu and his friends evacuated from Jianye City and even arrived at Yuyang City near the riverside. This means that there is no Liu army threatening Sun Ce in the hinterland of Eastern Wu, and Guo Jia, who is unable to respond to each other, allowing Sun Ce to concentrate most of his troops to defend the Yangtze River, and Guo Jia, who is in the Yangtze River, is also a little isolated. All the plans that Liu Yu and Cao Cao have worked hard to disrupt!
It means that all the hard work these days has been wasted, and it would be strange if Liu Yu is not angry.
Li Gui was sweating profusely and knelt down directly for Liu Yu, shouting: "Have you angry!"
"Stop the anger? How can you calm me down? The plan I have worked hard to set up was actually destroyed by a few of them!" Liu Yu was so angry that he was about to kill someone and could not calm down at all.
Li Gui really didn't know how to persuade Liu Yu, and this time it happened so much.
Liu Yu stood up and said to Li Gui: "Take the map and lights for me!"
Li Gui quickly followed Liu Yu's instructions and brought the map and lights over.
Liu Yu looked at the map carefully with the lights. Liu Yu's mind was all activated, and in the past, he could see some ways out.
"It's hard! It's hard!" Liu Yu said a little depressedly.
Seeing Liu Yu so much trouble, Li Gui was also very sad. The Lord was worried about his death. As a loyal dog-legged, Li Gui felt so distressed that he was as if he was scraping his flesh!
"Your Majesty, do you want to call the Grand Marshal here to discuss it together?" Li Gui himself could not share Liu Yu's worries, but he thought of Cao Cao.
Although Li Gui is not capable, he still has this urgent wisdom.
When Liu Yu heard that it was Cao Cao, he immediately felt a glimmer of hope in his heart and said quickly: "Why don't you go quickly? Why are you still standing there?"
Li Gui responded. He knew that Liu Yu was very angry now. It was the king to call Cao Cao over as soon as possible.
After Li Gui left, Liu Yu watched it again on the map himself.
After watching it for a long time, Liu Yu couldn't see the solution.
"Damn it! Why is this happening!" Liu Yu punched the map hard, and his anger was ignited again.
Tonight, Liu Yu is destined to be unable to sleep!
