Chapter 774 Strategies for War Defense
Just as Ailang was killing wildly, Dian Wei and his personal soldiers finally arrived at the scene and immediately entered the battle. The iron hooves rushed into the middle of the man in black, and the sword and horse spear raised blood rain. The screams sounded in the scene. The fierce man in black could not resist Dian Wei and the others at all. In an instant, he was killed and injured. Seeing that the situation was not good, the man in black did not dare to fight again, so he turned his head to escape! Dian Wei was worried that there were still men in black lying around and did not dare to chase him. He gathered the troops to protect Ailang.
Ailang put away the ring-headed sword and checked Dong Yuan's injuries. Seeing that Dong Yuan was seriously injured, he closed his eyes tightly, and didn't know whether it was death or life. He couldn't help but feel anxious. He quickly carried Dong Yuan onto the Red Rabbit Horse, stepped onto the saddle, and urged the Red Rabbit Horse to run straight into the city. Seeing this, Dian Wei quickly led his personal soldiers to chase him and guard him.
...
Ailang paced back and forth outside the guest room, looking anxious. When the girls heard the news, they hurried over and saw that Ailang was safe, their hearts were immediately relieved.
Yan came to Ailang, looked at the closed door next to him, and asked in a low voice: "Husband, I heard that someone was injured? Who is it?" Ailang said: "It's Dong Yuan..." The girls looked at each other and felt incredible. Because although Dong Yuan had followed their husbands, Dong Yuan was Dong Zhuo's daughter after all, and she could be said to have a grudge against her father. She would actually sacrifice her life to save her husband?
Yan smiled and said, "My husband, don't worry too much. As the saying goes, 'Good people will have their own appearance.' I think that girls Dong Yuan are blessed and will definitely turn danger into danger and come to auspiciousness!" Ailang couldn't help but sigh and nodded.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened and the female doctor Aunt Li came out of the room. Ailang immediately stepped forward, looked inside, and asked, "How is she?" Aunt Li clasped her fists at Ailang and said, "Don't worry, lord, General Dong Yuan is no longer in danger. The other party's arrow did not hurt her heart. You only need to recuperate for a while to recover!" Ailang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "That's good." Then he asked, "Can I go in and see her?" Aunt Li said, "My lord, I'm afraid it's not possible now. Although General Dong Yuan is not in danger, the injury is indeed extraordinary. It's better to let her rest alone for a while." Ailang did not force her when he heard her say this, and said, "If this is the case, I won't go in. During this period, you take good care of her and come to me if you need anything." "Yes."
Jizhou, Prime Minister's Mansion. Cao Pi has been waiting for good news from Qiao Sen, but what he was waiting for was the bad news of being rectified. Cao Pi was shocked and angry, and couldn't help but scold: "Waste! Waste! What a useless waste!"
Sima Yi frowned and said, "The result of this should be that Chen Gong and others had long seen through Qiao Sen's plan." Cao Pi couldn't help but sigh and said to Sima Yi, "It's true as Zhongda expected. This plan is indeed difficult to achieve." Suddenly, Cao Pi felt a sense of fatigue in his heart. He returned to his seat and sat down for a while, and muttered to himself: "Can we still defeat Lu Bu? Lu Bu now occupies half of the country, and the east and west capitals are all in his hands. His troops are as strong as his strength, and he is as if he is dominating the world!"
Sima Yi clasped his fists and said, "My lord must not be discouraged! Although Lu Bu is strong now, it is still unknown who will win to death! Thinking about the strength of the Prime Minister, the strength of the Prime Minister was only stronger than that of Lu Bu now. In the end, wasn't it that the situation was reversed by the opponent after the defeat in Chibi? There will always be opportunities, it depends on whether we can seize it!" Cao Pi immediately regained his confidence when he heard Sima Yi's words and nodded with deep understanding.
Sima Yi continued: "In the current situation, although Lu Bu is strong, he is not without weakness. The gentry class generally hates Lu Bu. Although several consecutive uprisings were suppressed by Lu Bu, the power of the gentry was not uprooted, and it is impossible to uproot it. Instead, the hatred of the gentry is stronger than before! With this restraint, Lu Bu's strength has been weakened by at least 30%. Furthermore, it is said that wood is rising from the forest wind and will destroy it. Lu Bu is getting stronger and stronger, and has become enemies with all forces. All forces want to get rid of it quickly. These forces have now united, and the coalition forces will win in the future. Therefore, as long as the Prime Minister is firm in his confidence, his subordinates will definitely believe that the dawn of victory will appear!" Cao Pi was excited and praised: "Okay! Well said! Zhongda's words make me full of confidence in the future!"
At this time, Xun You hurriedly came in from outside, presented a roll of bamboo slips to Cao Pi, and said, "Prime Minister, Mr. Wen Ruo sent an emergency letter from Youzhou."
Cao Pi hurriedly took the bamboo slips, opened them and looked at them, frowned slightly, "How dare Gao Chi betray me?" Sima Yi was shocked and asked hurriedly, "Prime Minister, what happened?" Cao Pi handed the bamboo slips to Sima Yi with a cold face. Sima Yi took the bamboo slips and read them, frowned slightly, "Gao Chi did not obey the orders?" Cao Pi cursed, "This rebellious!" Then he asked worriedly, "Does Goguli think we broke our promise? If he gets into a feud with Goguli again, wouldn't he be able to steal the rice?" Sima Yi clasped his fists and said, "You should immediately ask Mr. Wenruo to send a capable person to Goguli to explain this to Goguli. King Goguli is not a fool, you will understand, lord don't have to worry." Cao Pi nodded.
Luoyang. As the Spring Festival gets closer, Luoyang is becoming more and more lively. The trade conference was originally only held for five days, but given the good results, Ailang temporarily decided to continue the trade conference until after the Spring Festival.
In a private room in the restaurant, two elderly Confucian scholars sighed while drinking. The Confucian scholar on the left said in a heartache: "The palace is so solemn! Now it has become a place of trade. It is really a collapse of rituals and music, and morality collapses! Alas!" Since the trade conference was held in the square in front of the palace, this Confucian scholar said this. The Confucian scholar on the right nodded with conviction and said in great hatred: "The deepest evil of Lu Bu is far beyond Dong Zhuo and Wang Mang. If this person does not die, the people of the world will not redeem it!"
At this moment, the evil man Lu Bu, who was mentioned by two Confucian scholars, was in the hall of the royal palace with a group of civil and military meetings that came to Luoyang to attend the annual meeting.
The atmosphere at the annual meeting was unexpectedly solemn. Ai Lang said: "This is the situation in Liaodong. What do you think?" Everyone looked at each other. Zhuge Jin first stood up and fisted and said, "Lord, my subordinates thought that we should not send troops to Liaodong. If our army wants to send troops to Liaodong, we must cross the vast sea. Needless to say, the danger on the sea is, but when our army enters Liaodong, logistics support and supply of reinforcements will be an extremely difficult task. My subordinates are only worried that for a lonely Liaodong, we will exhaust our strength and will eventually be unable to save Liaodong." Many civil officials agreed.
Xu Huang frowned and said, "Although what Lord Zhuge said makes sense, do we have to sit idly by the people of Liaodong being poisoned by foreign races?" Zhao Yun clasped his fist at Ailang and said, "Lord, the last general thinks that rescue should be rescued. Although what Lord Zhuge said is not unreasonable, we are obliged to save the people. How can we ignore them because of difficulties?" Many generals shouted and agreed. There were two factions at the scene, one faction of military generals and one faction of civil servants. The generals advocated sending troops to rescue Liaodong, but civil servants were worried that the gain would be more than worth it and opposed sending troops. The two sides debated fiercely, and no one could convince anyone.
Ailang was so quarreled by them that he raised his right hand and shouted, "Okay!" The two factions stopped arguing and the scene became quiet.
Ailang looked at Xu Shu, Chen Gong, Zhuge Liang and Zhuge sisters who had not made any noise, and said angrily: "You military advisors don't do anything?" The five of them looked at each other and smiled. Zhuge Mengxue smiled and said, "This is a dilemma, we don't know what to do?" Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and said, "The lord has decided, why should we say more?" Ailang looked at Zhuge Liang and asked with a smile: "How do you know I have decided?"
Zhuge Liang said: "The lord is like a king of forests, and he cannot tolerate foreign beasts invading the animals in this forest. Therefore, in the previous battle in Yanzhou, our army was in great difficulty, but the lord still took the risk of leading elite troops to attack and defeat the barbarian coalition forces and rescued countless people! This naturally makes it clear that the lord's attitude on the Liaodong issue! The lord has decided to send troops, so why should we say more?"
When Ailang heard his words, he sighed and muttered to himself: No wonder so many people call Zhuge Liang a demon! Although this guy is a little conservative in leading the troops to fight, he has a clear understanding of all kinds of things than anyone else!
Ailang glanced at everyone and said, "Just as Kong Ming said, I have decided to send troops! Although Liaodong is separated by the vast sea, this battle must be fought! If I watch the elders and villagers in Liaodong being harmed by foreign races, what kind of face will they have to sit in this position? It is even more impossible to rule the world!" Xu Huang and Zhao Yun and other generals bowed excitedly, "Lord is wise!"
Ailang said: "It's not a fight in this battle, there is no need to discuss it. The problem now is how to fight." Then he glanced at everyone and showed a questioning expression. Finally, his eyes fell on the military advisors.
Zhuge Ruoxue said: "Although the only one who besieged Liaodong at the moment is Goguryeo's army, if our army sends troops, Cao's army, even Liu Bei, Sun Jian, and the Japanese will not sit idly by. We must be fully prepared. My opinion is to gather elite troops to send troops to Liaodong, and at the same time take a defensive position in other directions to prevent accidents." Zhuge Mengxue continued: "In addition, in the strategy of Liaodong, I think that I should not advance rashly, and the focus is to stabilize the situation and defend Liaodong. Later, I decided to advance and retreat to fight and defend."
Ailang nodded thoughtfully, looked at the other three military advisors, and asked, "What do you think?" The three of them looked at each other, and Chen Gong smiled and said, "The two ladies have said everything we want to say, what else can we say?" The Zhuge sisters felt a little embarrassed, but the civil and military men looked at them with admiration. In fact, many people had complained about the fact that the Zhuge sisters held high positions, thinking that this was Ailang's nepotism, but after listening to their analysis and suggestions, they couldn't help but convince them.
