    Chapter 175 The heroes see the same thing

    The night is deep.

    Sun Feng, Lu Xun, Cao Zhang and others sat around the tent, talking and laughing.

    "I didn't expect that a talented man like General Cao would be so desperate." Sun Feng smiled and raised his glass to Cao Zhi.  When Sun Shao provoked his generals in public, Cao Zhi was the first to stand up and support him. He was very grateful to Cao Zhi.  Ever since he was a child, Daqiao taught him to read the poems of the Cao family and his son. To be honest, at first, I only knew that Cao Zhi¡¯s poems were good, but I didn¡¯t know how good they were. Later, as he got older, he read some other people¡¯s poems.  , after comparison, we realized that Cao Zhi's poetic talent is indeed unparalleled in the world.  It's a pity that Cao Zhi doesn't write poetry anymore. He only wants to fight and make meritorious deeds, and has no intention to write any more poems. Occasionally, he speaks a sentence or two, and he is fierce and murderous. He is getting closer and closer to Lao Cao's poetry style.

    "Ashamed, ashamed." Cao Zhi was in a good mood. After traveling thousands of miles, he finally made some achievements. Although these achievements were not made with a sword, which is a bit regretful, it is better than just watching people fight.  He said a few words with rare humility: "I just happened to meet the opportunity. Even if I don't look, the prince will find it." He chuckled twice and joked: "When it comes to fleeing, how can I dare to meet the prince?  For example, dozens of Teutonic warriors dare to fight against the Sassanian heavy-armored knights. This courage is amazing."

    Sun Feng smiled silently: "This is all due to the cooperation of Nikolai and the others, not my fault alone. Moreover, this was done out of desperation. If it were changed now, I might not dare to do this."

    "The prince is good at martial arts, and he can rely on it to control the world." Cao Zhang put down his wine glass and asked doubtfully: "I know that your Sun family has been skilled in martial arts for several generations. I have also tried your father's skills, but  To be honest, he is only slightly taller than me at most, but your martial arts skillscould it be that you have been practicing since you were a child?"

    Sun Feng smiled.  He couldn't figure out this matter. Most of his martial arts were taught by his master, but the master said that he only improved greatly after being taught by his father. But the strange thing is that although his father's martial arts are very superb,  , but not as good as him. I heard from my eldest mother that my father's martial arts were completely transformed and entered a new realm after his serious illness, including Tai Chi, which he had practiced since he was a child.  Until now, he still didn't understand who this Tai Chi master was from. When he occasionally asked about his father, he would either smile and say nothing, or just ignore him.  This matter is mysterious, and only a few people know about it. Of course, he will not tell Cao Zhang.

    Cao Zhang's martial arts is also good. Firstly, it is related to his natural power, and secondly, it is also inseparable from years of unremitting training. However, according to Sun Feng's current state, most of Cao Zhang's martial arts is still in the stage of practicing muscles, bones and skin outside and practicing one breath inside.  He can only be regarded as a beginner. Compared with ordinary people, he may be regarded as a master among masters. After all, there are very few people with his strength, but there is still a certain distance between him and his martial arts that are both internal and external.

    "Yes, since I could walk, I have been taught martial arts by my father, the king, my mother, and later my masters. Later, I was taught by my uncle. It can be said that I am a lucky person on the way to learning martial arts."

    Cao Zhang smiled enviously.  Sun Feng was right, he was indeed a lucky man.  Several generations of the Sun family have been highly skilled in martial arts. From Sun Jian, who was known as the Tiger of Jiangdong, to Sun Ce, who was known as the Little Overlord, and then to Sun Shao, they were all warriors selected from a million. The blood of warriors flows in Sun Feng's veins.  Not only are there many brave men in the Sun family, but there are also many brave women. Sun Shangxiang and Sun Luban are both extraordinary women who are not inferior to men. Even his wife Sun is stronger than ordinary women, but she doesn't have the opportunity to show it off.  .  And Sun Feng not only has a strong father's lineage, but his mother is also a famous tiger girl, and his eldest father Guan Yu is even more famous as a bear and tiger general. Who can bring the advantages of so many people together? Looking at it, today he is only  Sun Feng was the only one left.

    "You are so lucky that people are envious." Cao Zhi laughed, picked up the wine glass, walked to Sun Feng with a somewhat floating pace, and leaned next to him casually: "That's why I support you, with the help of  With your luck, I will have a good fight to get rid of the sullenness I have been feeling in Guanzhong all these years. Your father tricked me, and he had agreed at the beginning that he would lead the Wei Kingdom from the sea into the Western Regions, and attack from two directions, first to deal with the Kushan people,  Moving westward to compete with the Sasanian Romans, who would have thought that we would now become allies with the Kushans. Alas, all the Kushan information I spent four or five years collecting was in vain."

    Cao Zhi clapped his thigh and felt regretful. When everyone saw it, they couldn't help laughing loudly.  There are no Kushans or Romans here. They don't have to worry about anything. Anyway, they all know that the creed of Sun Shao, the king of Yue, is that there are only permanent interests and no permanent allies.  Outside the borders of the Han Dynasty, the Romans and Kushans were only temporary friends, and the possibility of war in the future was really high.  Rome is a little better. It has a vast territory. Although civil strife has continued recently, it is still a worm with a hundred feet. Even though it is dead, it is still stiff. It seems that the force of force is not enough.They are very powerful, but the cohesion of the people is still strong. Even if they lose for a moment, they can still summon an astonishing number of armies to fight. This is not the case with Kushan. They established their country by force. During the long-term conquest process, they themselves did not have advanced  There is no civilization that can absorb the conquered, and it is controlled only by force. Now that they are rotten internally, and there are enemies with more powerful force from the outside, their decline will be very rapid from the beginning, and the possibility of being preyed upon by others is very high.  big.

    Although Cao Zhi, Cao Zhang, Li Yan and others may not all have the same ideas, they all have similar levels of knowledge. They can roughly guess the direction of Sun Shao's next actions, and they are all excited.  Especially Cao Zhang, the Guishan people are of nomadic origin, and their main force is cavalry. If you want to deal with such a country, cavalry is definitely indispensable.  The Vietnamese state had advanced navigation technology and could transport large numbers of troops over long distances, but cavalry had always been their shortcoming.  This time Sun Shao asked the Kushan people for the Caspian Sea. It seemed that the Caspian Sea was of little use, but Cao Zhang felt something else. He suspected that what Sun Shao wanted was actually the pastures around the Caspian Sea: he wanted to develop cavalry.  .

    Are these arrangements by Sun Shao complicated?  In fact, it is not complicated at all. To put it bluntly, it is still the same method of making friends at a distance and attacking at close range.  Cao Zhang believed that he could see clearly, so he had been considering whether, when helping Sun Shao fight against the Sasanians and Kushans, he should also limit Yue's intentions in cavalry?

    Lu Xun glanced at Cao Zhang. Under Cao Zhang's bold smile, he felt a sense of worry.  He smiled slightly, but said nothing, just drank quietly.

    "Your Highness, the Sasanian city gate has been burned to ashes. It is a good opportunity for us to attack. Why don't we seize the opportunity to attack, but instead retreat and give the enemy a chance to breathe?" Li Yan  He asked with some confusion: "Although the benevolent are invincible, on the battlefield, if you miss the opportunity, you will be unkind to yourself. Does His Highness the Crown Prince still place hope on Aldashir's surrender?"

    "Yes, what if he still doesn't surrender and uses the same weapon against us?" Cao Zhi was also very worried: "After all, they are also very familiar with this kind of petroleum oil. I think Aldashir must be at the top of the city.  They also hoarded a lot, but they didn't expect to use it this way. Now that they know it, how can they still let us do it alone?"

    Sun Feng sighed softly: "Everyone, why don't I understand this truth? Ardashir gave up the defense of the outer city and allowed us to drive straight in and hit Ctesiphon. Do you think he is really unable to defend?  Can we only be trapped in an isolated city?"

    Li Yan and Cao Zhi were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and suddenly had an idea.  Li Yan suddenly realized, and shook his head with a wry smile, but Cao Zhi touched his hand in surprise: "His Royal Highness, is he saying that even if we break through the city gate, if we cannot subdue his heart, a fierce battle will surely be waiting for us?"

    "Zijian is not only unparalleled in poetry, but also rare in military skills. Yang Dezu admires you so much, you are indeed a wise man." Lu Xun praised, raised his glass and gestured to Cao Zhi, who laughed.  , quickly picked up the cup from the table, raised his hands above his brow and said with a smile: "General Lu, what you said is a bit unkind. If I were really rare, would I still ask such a question?"

    "Otherwise." Lu Xun shook his head: "Actually, there are similarities between writing poems for generals and soldiers. Using troops and formations is like creating words and sentences. Everyone knows the usual truth. Everyone's style may be slightly different, but the difference is not the same.  The difference between a master and a mediocre player lies in whether you can discern the subtleties of common things. Just like whether you can use a word or allusion that others would not think of, or just a different sound, the realm is very different.  . Your poems are well written, don¡¯t they also use words that ordinary people know? But why can¡¯t we write them, and only you can?¡± Lu Xun stood up, walked to Cao Zhi with his wine glass in hand, and gently  He patted his shoulder gently: "Zijian, work hard! In time, you will be as famous as my father Cao Gong."

    Cao Zhi was filled with emotion. He was once a good successor in Cao Cao's mind, and therefore became a thorn in Cao Pi's side. Unfortunately, he was no match for Cao Pi in terms of power, and was completely defeated in the end. If Cao Pi had not died early, he could not succeed to the throne.  King, otherwise I really don¡¯t know what will happen to him.  He and Cao Pi have been brothers and rivals for so many years, and he has some understanding of Cao Pi's temper. The more sincere he smiles, the deeper the resentment in his heart will be, and the more cruel his future revenge will be.

    After failing in the fight for heir, he felt extremely resentful of his poetic talent. What's the use of being talented?  It's not just being fooled around by others. To succeed, you need tactics, not talent.  He doesn't write poetry now because he doesn't want others to regard him as a scholar anymore. But after writing poems for so many years, there are so many emotions that need to be turned into verses, how can he?He is controlling, he obviously has desire but cannot show it, his depression can be imagined.  Lu Xun's words suddenly cleared away the confusion in his mind. It turned out that writing poetry and using troops were not contradictory.

    "I am a crude and despicable person, how dare I stand shoulder to shoulder with my father. I am honored to be able to fight side by side with the King of Yue and his son, General Lu, and General Li, and see more of the style of famous generals." Cao Zhi said modestly: "In this way, Prince  Your Highness hopes to conquer the heart, not just the city?"

    "Heroes see the same thing." Sun Feng laughed.  "I estimate that there are no less than 30,000 to 40,000 Sasanian elite soldiers in the city, as well as a large number of mercenaries and civilians. If we just break into the city, we will face a brutal street battle in which both sides will lose and there will be no winner.  Even if we take the city of Taixi, what can we do? Is this the result we hope for? Obviously not. Therefore, what we are really attacking is their hearts. We must work together to make them lose confidence and lose their confidence.  Fighting spirit, finally surrendered in front of us, and handed us a city of Taixi Feng that was as complete as possible."

    "The next priority is to attack the city, and the highest priority is to attack the heart." Li Yan chewed on these two sentences, and suddenly remembered Ma Su's words, and couldn't help but blush.  When leaving Chengdu, Ma Di, as a close confidant of Prime Minister Zhuge Liang, sent him to the seaside of Panyue. Before sending him to board the Yue warship, Ma Di once said this to him.  But to be honest, Li Yan didn't like Zhuge Liang, and certainly didn't like Zhuge Liang's close confidant Ma Di. He always felt that this scholar could only talk nonsense.  In the following months, he only occasionally thought of Ma Su's words, also as evidence of his disdain for Ma Su.  But now that he heard the plan of Sun Feng and others, he suddenly felt that he seemed to have been wrong about Ma Di. The fact that he could graduate with honors from the talented Funan Lecture Hall proved that he was not in vain.  .

    "General Li's words are really revealing. We think so, but whether we can put it into practice requires your strong support." Sun Feng held the cup in both hands, looked around, and saluted everyone.  Attention ceremony.  Cao Zhang and others did not dare to neglect, and quickly raised their glasses to return the favor.  Cao Zhang said with emotion: "Since we are here at the invitation of the King of Yue, we naturally have to work together with the prince. There is no Northern Army here, no Wei Army, Shu Army, and Yue Army. We are the Han Army." He clenched his fist and punched it hard.  Chest: "Long live the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. May the Han Dynasty be invincible wherever it goes. Let's drink this cup together."

    Everyone responded loudly and excitedly: "Long live the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. May the Han Dynasty be invincible wherever it goes. Go for it!"

    "Dry!"

    "Dry!"

    They have the same mind. At this moment, they have temporarily abandoned their selfish thoughts. In order to win a Ctesiphon that is as complete as possible, they offer suggestions, inspire each other, and talk lively for a while.  Yang Hu pushed open the tent door and walked in. When he saw the bustle inside, he was stunned for a moment, then put an official document in his hand into his arms, walked up to Sun Feng with a smile, and winked.  Sun Feng nodded without saying a word, but just glanced at Lu Xun.  Lu Xun smiled slightly and continued to joke with Cao Zhang and others, discussing how to continue to subdue the Sassanid people.

    At midnight, when the matter was almost discussed, Cao Zhang and others retreated, and Du Yu sent them outside the tent.  Lu Xun stayed, and Yang Hu handed the secret letter in his arms to Sun Feng, took it and took a look at it, frowned, thought for a moment, and handed it to Lu Xun again.  Lu Xun read it once and gently placed the secret letter on the case: "Prince, what are you going to do with it?"

    Sun Feng did not answer him. He raised his head and said to Yang Hu and Du Yu, "What do you think?"

    Yang Hu and Du Yu looked at each other, and Du Yu said: "I think it is better to report this matter to the king and let the king make the decision."

    Yang Hu nodded in agreement.

    Sun Feng looked at Lu Xun.

    Lu Xun smiled: "Both of you are heroes, and your future prospects are limitless." He turned to Sun Feng and said: "I think so too, it is better to leave this matter to the king."

    "Since the three of you think so, I don't have any objections. Uncle, go to my father's camp immediately and hand this secret letter into my father's hands. In addition, please tell me about the situation here."  Tell your father again."

    "Here." Yang Hu bowed and agreed.

    ¡­¡­

    Sun Shao gently put down the secret letter, his brows furrowed into a knot, and he let out a long sigh. After being silent for a long time, he said: "I understand. You tell the prince and let him command the war with peace of mind. Wu Guo's  I will handle the matter on my own. With the queen here, the East China Sea Fleet, the South China Sea Fleet and the Funan Fleet are all here, so it won't get out of control. Let him rest assured."

    Yang Hu nodded, bowed and retreated. Sun Shao sat for a long time, then told Ao Lei to put the secret message away, and then clapped his hands.  The door of the back tent was opened, and Momia came out from behind, sat down leaning against Sun Shao, and leaned on Sun Shao's side.He smiled on his shoulder and said, "Why, have you encountered something difficult to solve?"

    Sun Shao smiled, stretched out his hand to hold Momia in his arms: "It's nothing, it's just that my uncle made some confusion and actually wanted to re-establish the crown prince. My brother was stupid again. In order to prevent his father  The king was in trouble and actually committed suicide.¡±

    Momia frowned: "How could this happen? Is this the case between father and son?"

    Sun Shao stroked Momia's shoulder: "Do you think every father cares about his son like me? There are really not many people who can stay sober after reaching this point. Although my uncle is wise, but in such a matter  , but it was indeed a mistake.¡±

    Momia laughed, raised her head and looked at Sun Shao, reached out and pinched his nose, and said angrily: "I know you have done a lot for Philip, I know it in my heart."

    "Is it enough just to know? Don't you have any expression?" Sun Shao chuckled, and his hand slowly climbed up to Momia's chest.  Momia groaned and said softly: "Am I not here? You can do whatever you want. I just hope that the king can take pity on me and don't let me make a fool of myself."

    "Make a fool of yourself? When have you ever made a fool of yourself?" Sun Shao lowered his head and kissed Momia on the face: "When did you not leave with satisfaction? Tell me, is Quintus as strong as me?"

    "You are still a majestic king of Yue, and you actually said such words. Are you ashamed or not?" Momia stretched out a finger and poked Sun Shao hard on the forehead.

    "What's there to be ashamed of?" Sun Shao laughed.
