    Jingzhou, Longzhong, Nanyang.  ¡ùr />

    It is the frost season, and the mountains of Wollongong are in depression, and we are about to enter the last gate of late autumn.

    In the courtyard of the thatched cottage, next to a peach tree, Zhuge Liang was dressed in white, holding the withered peach tree in his hand, his expression calm, but it was hard to tell that Zhuge Liang was less than twenty years old at this time.

    "There are peach trees all over the mountainit was a beautiful scenery in springbut now it seems like the situation in the world is constantly changing."

    "Brother, news just came from Guandu"

    Zhuge Jun came to Zhuge Liang in panic, his face was solemn, and he looked at his brother in front of him who also looked worried.

    Zhuge Liang¡¯s face trembled, and he felt a little sure after thinking about it. He said without looking back: "Are you talking about the current victory or defeat of Guandu?"

    Zhuge Jun was startled, "Did brother already know this?"

    "I watch the stars at night and know the results of the battle It is a mistake to make mistakes when the stars are trapped in the north, and the stars are wrong. This is alas you should talk about it"

    Zhuge Liang turned around. Although he had guessed the result, he still considered it and asked.

    Zhuge Jun seemed to feel cold, and buried his hands in his sleeves, saying: "I just learned from the rumors from the people at the foot of the mountain On the first day after Cao Xin arrived in Guandu, he watched Yuan Jun's camp overnight, and on the second day he ordered generals in front of the formation.  The formations were all set up to ambush from all sides. Unexpectedly, a fire broke out in the Wuchao that night, and Yuan's army's food and fodder were severely damaged. In just three hours, the million-strong army collapsed"

    "Haha What a great way to remove the firepower What a great governor"

    "Taking fuel from the bottom of the cauldron? Brotherwhat's the plan?" Zhuge Jun asked after hearing Zhuge Liang ponder for a while.

    Zhuge Liang said: "The cauldron is a millet-eating utensil. Yuan's army was like a young woman and had no firewood to burn, so he naturally dispersed. It is said that the fuel drawn from the bottom of the cauldron was written by Cao Xin when he wrote Mo Dao's Military Book. Although this military book has been widely circulated.  Not many, but I have heard about it once or twice. Very few people in the world know about the tactic of pulling out firewood from under the cauldron, let alone its meaning Come to think of it I have generally understood it this time."

    "Buteven soCao Xin, the commander-in-chief, destroyed Yuan's army of one million in less than three daysit still surprised everyone."

    "Surprised? Why are you surprised?" Zhuge Liang suddenly smiled and looked at Zhuge Jun and said.

    Zhuge Jun said: "It is common knowledge in the world that Cao Cao's army is at a disadvantage. Who is this Cao Xin? There are only 70,000 Cao's troops who have been fighting hard for several months, all of whom are supported by men. Cao Cao, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, has always had a reputation as a traitor, and his reputation has already withered.  On earth, Yuan's army still has millions of soldiers and countless generals. This man can actually judge the situation and destroy Yuan Shao's high-ranking army in three days. This is something that even Guan Zhong Leyi and his like couldn't do"

    Zhuge Liang smiled, did not answer, and gently stroked the waist of the peach tree.

    After a while, he suddenly spoke, "Tian Dan, a native of Zhao, was originally a small official in the Qi State. Yan general Leyi attacked more than 70 cities in the Qi State, leaving only Jimo and Juxian. It was at the time when the Qi State was about to be destroyed.  , Tian Dan turned the tide and regained more than 70 cities in Qi, and later returned to Zhao as prime ministerCao Xin was as good as when Tian Dan restored the countryAlthough I often compare myself to Guan Zhongleyi, Cao Xin is indeed a man of experience.  His talent and unpredictable appearance. Liang has never been surprised, but this person has established his authority in Guandu, and the world looks up to him, admires his power, and sees his interests. Now the world is in turmoil, all changes will be caused by Cao Xin, and the actions of various princes will also  It started because of him alone"

    "Sigh. This Cao Anmin is indeed capable of guiding the country. If he is the number one think tank of Cao's army, Yanzhou, which was originally a small country, has become the number one army today with the help of this person."

    After Zhuge Jun finished speaking, Zhuge Liang smiled leisurely.

    "I'm afraid that Cao Xin can rejuvenate the country and bring peace to the country, but he may also be in danger of destroying the country and shaking the master."

    ******

    Jiangdong, Wujun, Wuxian.

    "The Governor, please come in. My lord has invited you."

    Zhou Yu arrived at the door of the county government hall after a long and dusty journey, and his originally handsome face now became a little more calm and solemn.

    "Does my lord know the situation in Guandu?"

    "No one has reported it yetthe lord doesn't know yet."

    "Well, I understand, you all should step aside" Zhou Yu retreated from the surrounding guards and immediately entered the meeting hall.

    At this time, in the main hall, Sun Quan was reading the book of war alone. A full month had passed since Sun Ce's death. During this month, Sun Quan had undergone a completely different transformation, and the childishness on his face had also dissipated.  , a bit mature.

    "Gong Jin is here, just in time. There are political affairs in Jiangdong that I want to discuss with you." As soon as Zhou Yu entered, Sun Quan immediately put down the letter in his hand.

    Zhou Yu walked quickly, but his body moved and said: "My lord, Bo Fu had a message before his death. Ask Zhou Yu about foreign affairs and ask Zhang about domestic affairs.Zhao, since it is government affairs, you should discuss it with Zhang Zhao.  "

    Smiling, Sun Quan picked up the water glass in front of him and said, "Zi Bu has been ill recently, so I want to discuss it with Gong Jin By the way, Gong Jin, do you have anything important to do when you come here in such a hurry?  "

    Zhou Yu found a seat and sat down. His face suddenly turned serious and he said: "Guandu came to report that Cao Jun had a great victory Yuan Shao died in Tanshui."

    "Pfft"

    A mouthful of water suddenly spurted out. Before Sun Quan could hold it steady, the water cup in his hand suddenly spilled in front of him, leaving a water stain.

    "Ahem Gongjin, what did you say? Say it again? Ahem"

    Gong Jin's face was still solemn and he said: "Cao Xin led his army to a great victory ten days ago. He defeated Yuan's army in Guandu Baima Temple, Danling Pass and Hexi area. The million-strong army was instantly disintegrated. Yuan Shao was ambushed by Cao Xin and died on the bank of Tanshui River.  The body has been sent back to Jizhou"

    "What's wrong with Yuan Jun?" Sun Quan suddenly jumped up from his seat and asked anxiously.

    Zhou Yu said: "Yuan's army still has 200,000 troops. However, Qingyou and Hebei have a vast territory and a large number of people. There is also rebellion between the Qiang and Hu. This time, Yuan's army has destroyed millions of stones, grain and grass tools, which can be said to have damaged their vitality. Although Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang have reached adulthood,  However, each of them has their own agenda, and the four states will inevitably be in turmoil. If they no longer have the strength to move south, the Han thief Cao Cao will surely conquer the four northern states within two years, and Yuan's army will be destroyed."

    "II'm asking Cao Xin why he defeated Yuan Jun?"

    When Zhou Yu saw Sun Quan's pale face, he smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, Zhou Yu I have already reminded my lord that Cao Xin should not be underestimated. Cao Anmin has destroyed millions of Yuan's troops just by talking and laughing. His wisdom  His plans and strategies were worthy of a genius. Ten days ago, Cao Xin made a surprise attack on Wuchao Camp and beheaded Chunyu Qiong. As a result, Yuan's army had no food to rely on. Millions of stones of food and grass were instantly wiped out! It is said that the night before Cao Xin defeated Yuan, he killed him on the general stage.  The generals were ordered to pursue the remnants of Yuan's army tomorrow. At that time, all the generals were confused and prepared to chase the enemy before the battle started. But now it seems this shows that Cao Xin is a god in predicting things"

    "Plop" fell to the ground.

    Sun Quan murmured: "Brother you really didn't lie to me Cao Xin will definitely be a big trouble for me in Soochow"
