183 Before the war(1/2)
In the harem of Jianye City, Sun Shangxiang and Sun Quan sat next to Mrs. Sun. Sun Shangxiang's face was not very good. After she returned to Jianye and met Mrs. Sun, she immediately knew that she had been deceived by her brother. After Mrs. Sun learned about this, she angrily smashed a flowerpot at her hand to the ground and smashed it. She looked at Sun Quan with a wide eyes and said, "Zhu Zi, do you want to curse me to death?"
Sun Quan, who had the power of the Eastern Wu military and political power, smiled embarrassedly and did not dare to talk back to his old mother at all. But he thought in his heart that there was nothing wrong with what he did. If it was wrong, at most he shouldn't have sent that damn Ji Wu to complete this task. damn... Sun Quan cursed in his heart.
Next to Sun Shangxiang, there was a little girl holding a rabbit doll and looking pitiful, but it was Anne who crossed the river. She looked at Sun Quan curiously, with no expression on her face, and then looked at Sun Shangxiang carefully, and her little face drooped.
Annie wanted to show her talents, but thinking that she could not use any extraordinary abilities in this world, she smashed her mouth and said nothing.
Sun Quan was a little annoyed. He stood up and walked back and forth in the hall a few steps, saying, "It's too late to say this now! Sister, can you harm you as a brother? Oh, hey, Ji Wu's behavior really does not come from his life span... This damn bastard, even if he was not killed by Zhao Yun, I will peel him up and cramp him when he comes back! Now that the enemy is in front of us, let's think about how to deal with the current situation."
The old woman was silent and didn't say anything. She glared at Sun Quan fiercely, then touched Sun Shangxiang's hair with some pity, with a little guilt in her eyes.
Sun Shangxiang also stood up and said to his brother: "I am going back to Jingzhou now and commit suicide in front of my husband. Maybe I can avoid a disaster in Dongwu."
Mrs. Sun frowned and said firmly: "Absolutely not possible! This situation is caused by your brother, why should you bear the consequences for him? The entire Eastern Wu is his. Since he has caused such consequences, let your brother solve it!"
Sun Quan raised his eyes and thought for a while, cheered up his spirits, and said, "Mother is right. Since things have reached this point, nothing is useful now. I absolutely do not agree with sacrificing my sister to promote Sun and Liu's reconciliation."
His words made Sun's mother nod, and he continued, "When it comes to military strength, I, Dongwu, are not afraid of him at all. Although the generals are scattered, Jiangdong has many heroes since ancient times. Now two brave generals have joined me. Although I don't know if they can be compared with Guan and Zhang, they are also a temporary choice and a talent for making! Lu Xun is young, but his future is promising; and Zhao Xin is even more brave than General Ganning. In addition to Lu Meng and Lu Su and others, why are I afraid of Jingzhou in Jiangdong!"
Sun's mother nodded. There was no other way to do it now. Sun Shangxiang's expression was determined, but she still didn't say anything to Sun Quan.
Since Annie heard the name "Zhao Xin", her eyes lit up. She cursed silently and fiercely in her heart, but suddenly she became happy. Annie herself could not grasp her mood, and looked at a bonsai placed in the corner of the hall with some annoyance, and gritted her teeth viciously.
After a while, Sun Shangxiang took Annie to leave Sun Quan's hall and returned to her residence. She glanced at Annie and said, "Annie, I see that your expression was a little wrong just now..."
"Thank you for your concern," Annie said. However, she didn't say much. She just looked at the sky outside and was stunned. She stared at a bird landing on a big tree outside. She sang twice and then flew out of her sight with her wings. Then she said, "Well, I just think it's not easy for Mrs.."
Sun Shangxiang looked at Annie with emotion. The little girl she saved on the way back was really thinking about herself. She remembered her brother again. When she got married, it was for Jiangdong, but now she left, it was for Jiangdong.
I, Sun Shangxiang, is a woman who lives for Jiangdong? Sun Shangxiang is unwilling to accept it, but there is no way to do this situation.
"Annie, actually I want to go back to Jingzhou. Even if I finally apologize for death, I want to go back." Perhaps because Annie is young, Sun Shangxiang has no idea about hiding her from her.
Anne was stunned, then said in a daze, "What about me?"
She asked whether she should go to Zhao Xin to end this damn task. She is now 100% sure that the damn system has arranged the task for her, and Sun Shangxiang didn't know what she was thinking. She thought she was worried about her future. She patted Annie's shoulder and said, "Of course, you can't go back with me, but before I leave, I will definitely arrange a good way out for you."
Annie blinked her eyes and looked at Sun Shangxiang and sighed helplessly. She hadn't encountered this situation that could not determine her fate for a long time. Sun Shangxiang's words reminded her that in this world, she was just a little girl who had no ability to protect herself.
Then how could Zhao Xin use his abilities? Her eyes rolled and she thought. She understood what Sun Quan said just now. Even in this place where the general strength is more abnormal, Zhao Xin's strength can be considered very strong. So, is it said that Zhao Xin can use his abilities?
Just when Annie and Sun Shangxiang were hesitating about the way they should go, in Jingzhou, Liu Bei had already rushed from Yizhou to Jingzhou like a meteor. A group of Jingzhou people came to the city. Liu Bei and Guan, Zhang and Zhao met, while Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong exchanged a secret look.
Liu Bei, who was wearing a dark black brocade dress, was furious and didn't even bother to say polite words, so he asked Zhuge Liang directly: "Military advisor, if you attack the Eastern Wu, how to send troops? Who is the general?" He rushed all the way, without even notice that his hair was crooked. After saying that, he looked at Zhuge Liang with both eyes, waiting for his answer.
Zhuge Liang shook his fan and said, "A Dou is dead, it is natural for the lord to take revenge. How can he ask the lord to take revenge?"
A cold light flashed in Liu Bei's eyes, and he said without hesitation: "Of course, let Sun Quan pay the blood debt with blood!"
Zhuge Liang nodded and asked, "So is your lord planning to send troops from Jingzhou and attack Jianye directly?"
Liu Bei hesitated for a moment, shook his head blankly and said, "These Beis have not been concerned yet, and everything is counting on the military advisor..."
Zhuge Liang wanted to roll his eyes and faint. You said that Sun Quan would pay his life. Then, if you attack Dongwu, wouldn’t you still want to conquer Jianye? However, on the surface, Zhuge Liang still said without any hesitation: "Long empathizes with the lord's heart, but how dare you ask the lord, which is more important than the lord's great cause?"
Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang without answering. He must have wanted to take revenge in his heart. But he did not dare to say that he could give up his foundation, nor did he dare to take a gamble. Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others did not speak, and hundreds of generals below looked at Zhuge Liang and waited for him to speak.
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "The actions of the Eastern Wu are villains. But the lord must not be reckless. The Eastern Wu can attack, but Jianye cannot be desirable; revenge can be repaid, but the foundation cannot be destroyed."
Liu Bei nodded. He was not such an impulsive person. However, this time he suffered too much, which made him unable to swallow this breath no matter how much. Zhuge Liang's words were reasonable, and he did not object, but asked: "So what should he do according to the military advisor's wishes?"
Zhuge Liang looked at Pang Tong, and then said slowly: "Our army should attack Dongwu quickly with a thunderous force. I expect Cao Cao to fight Ma Chao and Han Sui to last. It will not last long. If I attack Dongwu, Cao Cao will definitely benefit."
Liu Bei nodded cautiously. He still had to listen to these words no matter how ugly they were. Moreover, seeing Zhuge Liang's appearance, he had no intention of persuading him. He also felt relieved. Zhuge Liang did not object, so everything would be easy to say. As for whether it was a quick battle or a protracted war, Liu Xuande actually didn't care.
***************************************
In Wuchang, north of the Yangtze River, Zhao Xin was a little confused when he looked at his "10,000 subordinates".
It turned out that the 10,000 elite soldiers that Sun Quan promised him... were just this ten thousand untrained reserves. These white-faced, thin-skinned, or squinting soldiers made Zhao Xin very distressed. Gan Ning asked him to come to Wuchang to train troops. Could it be that he would not consider the 20,000 army opposite Yu Jin. He was just staring at him two hundred miles away?
After setting up the camp, setting up the training ground, and setting up a circle of wooden fences less than two meters high, Gan Ning left some food and supplies, and then returned to his territory. He seemed to have sufficient confidence in Zhao Xin, or he believed that the Cao army, who was neatly lined up on the other side, was just a vulnerable miscellaneous army. In short, he left like this.
"What should I say?" Zhao Xin said to himself, then faced a soldier who looked at him like a mess, with curiosity, disdain and other emotions in his eyes, and said, "My name is Zhao Xin! You should all know! When you come to me and become a soldier under my command, you must obey my command!"
He looked at the yawning soldiers and took out the two swords, "Panlong" and "Starchen", which were the two given to him by Sun Quan. His internal strength flowed and he shouted loudly. His hands were dancing rapidly, and more than a dozen sword shadows with long sword lights cut the land in front of the soldiers into pieces. Zhao Xin shouted in a angrily voice: "You little bastards! Look down on you Grandpa Zhao? All fucking stand for me! This fucking army... What fucking army, there is not even a fucking general... or you scumbags! Have you seen the flags of Cao army in the north? Yu Jin's 100,000 troops are there! If you don't hurry up and train, then when will he be in a bad mood? You come to cause trouble for us? You can't live! Do you understand!"
Zhao Xin's strength and words calmed down these lazy soldiers. They stood up a little straight, and their expressions became a little serious, and said, "I understand!"
"I understand, no one!" Zhao Xin cursed: "This is my first time leading the army. To be honest, I can't do anything except killing people! If you don't want to die, you have to train harder than others! Because you will never be under any clever command! There are no outstanding plans! There are only two orders I have given to you, one is to rush and the other is to withdraw!"
He put his sword in the sheath and said, "Now, have you ever been an officer? For your precious life, get out now!"
Zhao Xin held his head high and stared at these soldiers. Among the ten thousand people, there must be no one who has been an officer, right?
But what disappointed Zhao Xin was that these people were indeed all new recruits who had just joined the army. Not to mention becoming officers, it was the first time they joined the army. Zhao Xin reluctantly called out a few soldiers who seemed to be thinking that way and asked. As a result, they were just a little stronger, but they had no military background.
Zhao Xin made a giggle sound in his throat, indicating that his mood was very unstable. He thought for a while and said, "You guys..."
He randomly selected ten people from the crowd and said, "You are just a few of you. You will be the deputy generals of this general in the future! Each person will lead a thousand troops!"
"But, I have never... I don't know how to lead the troops..." A strong soldier with an honest and looked very honest said with a frown. Zhao Xin glared at his eyes and said with his eyebrows across, "I haven't! Obey orders! Soldier! Obey orders!"
What else did the soldier want to say? But Zhao Xin pulled out his sword again without saying a word, raised his sword to the sky, and said, "Slay those who disobey their destiny!"
That soldier, no, the general shrank his neck and stopped talking.
It took Zhao Xin three days to arrange the soldiers according to a strange decimal system such as Zhao Xin's match being a partial general and a centurion, and then he was worried about another thing.
That's training.
After thinking for a long time, Zhao Xin did not come up with a feasible plan, so he had to write a letter to Hei Niu who was far away in Jianye. On the one hand, he asked him to make some arrangements for himself and send a letter to Sun Shangxiang; on the other hand, he asked him to think about his ideas for training troops. As a result, Hei Niu's reply made him die.
Hei Niu replied, "First, Mrs. Sun is not in Jianye and is missing; second, I, Hei Niu, have never trained soldiers, and I can't do it either."
Zhao Xin, who was furious, had no choice but to follow Zhao Yun's method of training and put physical training first in the training. A few days ago, Zhuge Liang said to him secretly: "The first battle between Sun and Liu must be Wuchang."
What is there in Wuchang? Only one of his own soldiers! Ten thousand soldiers who seemed almost disabled in Zhao Xin's opinion forced Zhao Yun to try his best to improve their survival chances.
Zhao Xin combined Zhao Yun's method of training himself with modern military training and finally formulated a training system that he thought was feasible. However, Liu Bei, who was eager to take revenge, would arrive in Wuchang in less than three days. This made Zhao Xin helpless.
He wrote a secret letter to Zhuge Liang tactfully, but Zhuge Liang replied, "It's unbeatable, it's unbeatable."
Zhao Xin thought about it and understood what Zhuge Liang meant. Zhuge Liang's strategy was to join forces with Wu to fight against Cao and Sun and Liu. Therefore, he had to vent Liu Bei's hatred and never lose at first. Once Liu Bei was angry and angry, he might not be able to persuade him.
This is the first meaning. Zhao Xin was not worried about completing this. It was impossible to defeat Liu Bei with his own strength. The other meaning was that he must not make Liu Bei feel that the Eastern Wu was vulnerable, as this would encourage Liu Bei to annex the Eastern Wu and thus cause uncontrollable consequences.
One day later, Zhuge Liang wrote another letter and said, "You don't have to look for Mrs. Sun anymore. Liu Bei's hatred cannot be calmed by Mrs. Sun. Stay in Eastern Wu and pay more attention."
Zhao Xin smiled bitterly. He went from being a short-term spy to a long-term spy. After receiving a letter from Zhuge Liang, less than an hour later, Zhao Xin really began to sigh at the wonders of the world.
Because, Mrs. Sun showed up outside the camp in Wuchang with an acquaintance of Zhao Xin. Who is the cute girl holding a rabbit, if not Annie?
Zhao Xin welcomed the two of them into the camp and asked, "What's the point of doing Mrs. Sun here?"
Mrs. Sun didn't know that she had seen Zhao Xin when Zhao Yun chased Adou, and she knew that this person had killed Ji Wu, but she didn't know Zhao Xin's name. But when she saw Zhao Xin, she immediately recognized her.
Mrs. Sun frowned slightly and whispered: "General Zhao, isn't he a general of the Shu army? Why is he in Wu?" Her expression was a little vigilant.
But Zhao Xin said without caring about it: "Isn't Mrs. Sun also the wife of Shu? Why are you in Wu? Annie, let's talk in detail later." His last words were said to Annie, who was staying here and wanted to speak but stopped.
Anne nodded, her expression seemed calm.
But her heart was already in full swing.
Because, as soon as she saw Zhao Xin, the system prompted her that the task was completed... the task was completed? It was really Zhao Xin, the annoying guy? Annie only felt that her head was not enough. However, her next second task was to ask Zhao Xin to take her out of this world. She glanced at Zhao Xin. It seemed that he could not use his abilities now.
Mrs. Sun sighed and said, "I am in Dongwu, and I can't help myself!"
Zhao Xin nodded in understanding and said, "You are involuntarily, and I am the same. I even have to come to this world! But in the face of fate, what can we do?"
This sentence says that Mrs. Sun's heart is in her heart. She also thinks so. After hearing this sentence, she was a little less alert about Zhao Xin and nodded. She is already the wife of Shu. So, what arrangements does Shu have, how to be unfavorable to Wu, and what does it have to do with her? Sun Shangxiang has done enough for Wu!
Sun Shangxiang changed the subject. She looked at a candlestick in Zhao Xin's camp that was about to be exhausted and asked, "Are you Annie's fiancé who has been engaged since childhood? She is indeed a handsome talent!"
"Ah?" Zhao Xin didn't dare to believe Mrs. Sun's words. Then he saw Annie's angry, anxious, helpless and threatening gaze. He hurriedly covered up and said, "Ah, that's of course. When I went out to learn from my master and learned skills, I was going back to marry her after I made a career, but I didn't expect her to come here... Alas. Thank you Mrs. Sun!"
Zhao Xin’s acting talent is unquestionable. He easily made Sun Shangxiang believe his words. Sun Shangxiang nodded and said, “Then, you must take good care of her in the future!”
Zhao Xin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Listen to Mrs. Sun's tone. Are you going to leave?"
Sun Shangxiang nodded and said, "I just passed by here. Annie said that your name is the same as her future husband's name, so I came over and check it out. Since you are really the person she is looking for, I feel relieved."
Zhao Xin was in his heart and wanted Sun Shangxiang to take Annie away quickly. But in the end he didn't say it. He hesitated and asked, "Does Mrs. Sun want to go back to Jingzhou?"
Sun Shangxiang nodded and said, "I came out this time to go back to Jingzhou. I have to give my husband an explanation for that matter." There was a very firm meaning in her tone, which made Zhao Xin admire her a little.
After a few more chats, Zhao Xin sent Sun Shangxiang out of the camp. Back at his camp, Zhao Xin looked at Annie and said, "Why are you here too?"
Annie said fiercely: "It's not because of you?" However, she was stunned after she said that. Her tone, no matter how she sounded, it seemed like a little girl was flirting with her boyfriend...
"Me?" Zhao Xin opened his eyes wide in disbelief and asked, "What does this have to do with me?"
"I am looking for you to do a task, but you are not there..." Anne said.
"Then come and look for me?" Zhao Xin still couldn't believe it. But Annie said, "Stop talking, tell me how to leave this damn place!"
"Leave?" Zhao Xin was stunned. He really didn't know how to leave. When he came, he was slapped by Li Long and came here for no reason. He really knew nothing about how to leave.
He thought for a while and asked Anne: "Did you come to this world because of a mission?"
"I've completed the monthly mission. But I don't know how to leave." Anne said.
Zhao Xin was even more surprised and said, "Is it done?" He looked at Annie and asked, "What is your mission?"
To be continued...
