Chapter 35: The strange and correct combination
Guo Jia never expected that Sun Quan would have such a new proposal. (, watch the latest update of this book)
However, since Sun Quan wanted to marry his daughter after marrying his sister, Guo Jia naturally accepted it all.
Sun Quan had two daughters at this time, the older one was only seven years old and the younger one was four years old.
Two girls who looked fine after dressing up were brought to Guo Jia and Sun Quan.
These two sisters are ignorant and innocent. They open their clear eyes and look at Guo Jia curiously, and only salute to Guo Jia after Sun Quan gave instructions.
Sun Quan raised his hand and wanted to introduce Guo Jia to Guo Jia's two daughters to see which one is suitable to marry Guo Jia's youngest son Guo Yu.
But Guo Jia's eyes looked at the two girls very calmly, calmly a little weird.
Before Sun Quan opened his mouth, Guo Jia pointed to the younger girl and said, "If Wu Hou doesn't dislike it, then marry this girl to my incompetent son."
In terms of age, both children are suitable to marry Guo Yu, but Sun Quan found that Guo Jia's eyes when he looked at his eldest daughter seemed to have a sense of hatred behind the calmness.
Since Guo Jia named him, Sun Quan did not object. It was nothing if he could sacrifice his sister and sacrifice a daughter.
Furthermore, Sun Quan knew very well that his peace with Guo Jia was short-lived. Now he married his daughter to Guo Jia's son and made a good relationship for the two families. If the Sun family fails in the future, Guo Jia will still worry about this relationship and allow the Sun family's bloodline to continue.
Sun Quan squatted down and gave his young daughter a few words. In order to prevent this marriage from happening, Sun Quan decided to let Guo Jia leave with his daughter now.
The little girl showed a horrified expression. Just before she wanted to cry, Guo Jia bent down and picked her up and smiled at her. The gentle expression surprised Sun Quan because he couldn't feel Guo Jia's hypocrisy.
The older girl Sun Quan didn't know why, but she also knew that Guo Jia chose her sister and did not choose her, she didn't know why.
Turning around and walking out, Guo Jia even knew these two girls even more in his heart than Sun Quan.
The older one, whose nickname is Sun Dahu, was later Princess Luban in history, the woman who committed a crime of affair with her nephew after marrying Zhou Yu's son.
The young man, whose nickname was Sun Xiaohu, was later Princess Luyu, and she was a miserable woman.
It’s not for Guo Jia to know so much about the Sun family. As a time traveler, who is not curious about the romantic figures in the history of the Three Kingdoms to carefully understand the family history of the Sun family in Jiangdong?
There are countless heroes in the world. The Sun family in Jiangdong has produced three heroes in two generations. They are a tiger, admirable and fascinating.
The biological mother of Dahu and Xiaohu is Mrs. Bu, and Mrs. Bu is the spouse who is most longing for by men among Sun Quan's many wives and concubines.\\.com First release\\
Mrs. Bu is unparalleled in beauty and never jealous. Many beautiful concubines in Sun Quan's harem were selected and recommended to Sun Quan by Mrs. Bu. Who doesn't want such a woman?
But it is such a woman who gave birth to a pair of daughters, but they are completely different.
Sun Dahu had bad character, not only foul the palace, but also launched political infighting and forming party for personal gain.
Sun Xiaohu's fate was bumpy. Her husband died early, and after remarrying, she also fell into a tragic ending. It can even be said that she died at the hands of her own sister Sun Dahu.
Both sisters inherited Mrs. Bu's beauty, but Sun Dahu did not inherit Mrs. Bu's moral qualities.
If these two sisters insist that Guo Jia choose to save one and change her destiny, Guo Jia will choose Sun Xiaohu because he vaguely saw the historical figures of the Qiao sisters in Sun Xiaohu.
People are so strange. Even though Sun Dahu in front of him is just a child, Guo Jia is more rational and should not impose it on her with another time and space matter. However, Guo Jia cannot take off his tinted glasses. He feels disgusted with the unfaithful woman.
People are selfish, and men in feudal dynasties can be selfish and openly, allowing themselves to be romantic, and cannot tolerate women being passionate.
Jiangdong prepared for Guo Jia to see him off, and the boat was moored on the shore. Sun Shangxiang and her guards had already boarded the ship and waited. Wu Hou Sun Quan left the city to see him off, and talked with Guo Jia all the way.
When they parted, Guo Jia said goodbye to Sun Quan and Jiangdong's civil and military officials indifferently. In the complex eyes of everyone, Guo Jia hugged Sun Xiaohu, who was trembling, and boarded the stairs.
Sun Shangxiang's face was cold and almost "snatched" from Guo Jia's arms. She hugged Sun Xiaohu into her arms. The little girl buried her head in her aunt's arms. She finally stopped trembling. But for the future, especially when she saw the moving ship getting farther and farther away from her father on the shore, she didn't know where her future would be heading.
Guo Jia stood proudly on the bow of the boat wearing a cloak, looking down at the monarch and ministers on the shore, with cold eyes, looking up at the changing sky, sighing in his heart.
Wuhou, you missed the only opportunity.
Xiakou
Liu Bei was worried these days. While busy preparing for the war, he asked Jian Yong, Mi Zhu, Yi Ji, and Zhuge Liang. The first three people had no idea, but Zhuge Liang only asked Liu Bei to be calm, but he did not promise that there would be no war breaking out.
It was cold and cold. Because Liu Qi was ill in bed, Liu Bei successfully took over his 10,000 troops. Liu Bei, who had 20,000 troops, was busy preparing for war. In fact, he knew very well that if the Taiping Army attacked, he would not fight with the other party at all, but led his army to escape. Where could he escape?
On the Xiakou city tower, the military camp outside the city was crowded with people. Zhuge Liang looked down at the scene at a corner of the city tower, expressionless.
He ordered the man to lift a seven-stringed zither. Zhuge Liang sat in a corner of the city, playing the zither with both hands, and gently plucked the strings with his slender fingers with his right hand.
A melodious song of deer spreads.
The beautiful piano music made many soldiers outside the city tower stop and listen attentively.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were commanding the soldiers when they suddenly heard the sound of the piano and looked up at the city. The two looked angry.
"Why are you standing there in a daze?! Why don't you transport these food and supplies here!"
Zhang Fei made a move of whipping, and the soldiers beside him quickly took action, not daring to slacken at all.
It’s not that Zhang Fei and Guan Yu don’t understand the rhythm, they understand, and they will understand and appreciate it better than ordinary soldiers.
But now, Zhuge Liang's behavior is inappropriate in their eyes.
The Taiping Army may be coming at the time, and who has the intention to listen to music?
Liu Bei sent Mi Zhu to ask Zhuge Liang for advice again. Liu Bei was already annoyed and could not ask Zhuge Liang for advice again.
Mi Zhu stood quietly behind Zhuge Liang, as if he was a different world. More than 20 years later, the contrast between the rich man who was wealthy in Xuzhou City was now very different, and his gentle and elegant faces were full of vicissitudes.
After Zhuge Liang stopped his fingers and the rhythm of the piano dissipated, Mi Zhu bowed to Zhuge Liang and asked.
"Military advisor, how should our army face the Taiping Army's tens of thousands of troops?"
Many years have passed, and Mi Zhu has become accustomed to bowing to others. Zhuge Liang, who is much younger than him, is easy to make him bend down.
Zhuge Liang stroked his hands on the strings, as if he was talking to himself.
"Before the enemy was attacking, our army was already in chaos. When Cao Cao raised 300,000 troops to fight in the east, our army had Jiangdong as an ally. Now he only relied on himself and exposed his timidity. Even if he fought on the back, he might not have a chance of winning."
In the end, only five thousand white-eared soldiers can bear the responsibility. For the other 15,000, ten thousand are from Liu Qi, and five thousand are from Jingzhou who defected to Liu Bei when he was unwilling to surrender to Cao Wei.
It is impossible to achieve military training in one go. A powerful army requires training day and night and can only be effective after repeated training.
But time was not available to Liu Bei. Even if Zhuge Liang took over the army, he would not be able to make this army a qualitative leap in a short period of time.
It is undeniable that Jiangdong made an indelible contribution to the great victory of Chibi. The real main force is from Jiangdong. Liu Bei's troops increased the chances of victory and did not play a decisive role in the victory or defeat of the war.
Mi Zhu frowned slightly. He had also developed the ability to remain calm in the face of changes over the years. Or he had already put life and death aside after several years of life and death, so he could look down on the crisis indifferently.
"Military advisor means, will our army surrender when the Taiping Army attacks?"
Zhuge Liang walked to the city wall and suddenly asked with a chuckling, "Zi Zhong thought the Taiping Army would attack Xiakou? If Guo Jia did not die, the Taiping Army would retreat to Jiangling."
The Taiping Army has nearly 150,000 troops coming to Jiangxia. Do you really intend to attack Liu Bei? You respect Uncle Liu so much!
Mi Zhu took a step forward and whispered behind Zhuge Liang: "General Yide and General Yun made suggestions to the lord, intending to intercept Guo Jia on the way back to Jiangling."
Zhuge Liang smiled even more vigorously, shook his head and sneered, "So what if I kill Guo Jia? The lord dares to kill those whom the Marquis of Wu dare not kill? The Marquis of Wu killed Guo Jia, and the Sun and Liu alliance unanimously resisted the Taiping Army, and there is still a three-point chance of winning. If the lord intercepted the lord halfway, no matter whether it succeeded or failed, the Taiping Army and Jiangdong would attack the lord together."
"So the lord refused. Military advisor, can Guo Jia really not deal with the lord?"
Mi Zhu said lightly.
Zhuge Liang looked at the sky from afar, with white clouds and dogs, and was inconsistent.
"Yizhou Liu Yan's fact of usurpation was true, Li Jue and Guo Si caused trouble to the court, Han Sui slaughtered the northwest, the southern barbarians attacked the north, and Cao thieves swept across Jingxiang. Even when Guo Jia almost died in Jingzhou twenty years ago, Jingzhou was nominally a land of unparalleled land. Zi Zhong, do you think Guo Jia's use of troops would be for no reason? Will it be criticized by the world? Will it be criticized by the world?"
Mi Zhu thought about it carefully and nodded frequently.
Every time Guo Jia attacks a city or plunders a land, he will hold up the banner of righteousness high, which is the so-called justification.
No one would complain or be wronged for those who lost their hands.
Taking the right path in righteousness and taking the strange strategy in military strategy is Guo Jia's strategy to rise up and dominate the side.
Zhuge Liang looked at the sky with his hands behind his back and said calmly: "Looking at the nearly thirty years after the chaos in the world, the only one who truly brought the perfect combination of strangeness and justice to the extreme is Guo Jia. Therefore, if Guo Jia returns to Jiangling safely, he will not attack Jiangxia, even if the one-month period he said has arrived, he will not."
If Guo Jia died in Jiangdong, the Taiping Army would have a reason to attack Liu Bei, because the Sun and Liu families were in an alliance.
Although Liu Bei was like a man, Guo Jia was like killing him, Zhuge Liang was sure that if Guo Jia killed Liu Bei, his blood would taint his name and it would not be worth the loss.
Zhuge Liang was so surprised that he really guessed Guo Jia’s thoughts, but he didn’t know that Guo Jia had lent Jiangxia County to Sun Quan.
"At present, Guo Jia is returning to Jiangling, and the lord has also rejected the proposals of the two generals Guan and Zhang. Why did the military advisor not let the lord stop preparing for the war?"
Even if there is no war to fight, a series of actions to prepare for the war will be extremely consumed, and Liu Bei cannot afford it.
Zhuge Liang did not answer Mi Zhu, but just looked at the sky and was slightly ecstatic.
Guo Jia, can you be a saint? Let me wait and see.
