At the beginning, Lu Su heard of Liu Biao's minions and said to Sun Quan, "Jingzhou is close to the country, with dangerous mountains and rivers, fertile soil in Wan Li and rich scholars. If there is evidence, the emperor's capital is also there. Now that Liu Biao is dead, the two sons are at odds. The generals in the army are different. Liu Bei is fierce in the world, and there is a gap with Cao Cao. If you are going to live in harmony with him, you should be calm and make a good alliance; If there is any deviation, it is advisable not to draw it to help the great event. Sue asked someone to hang the watch of her second son, and comforted those who used it in the army, and said that he would be prepared to care for the people all over the world and rule Cao Cao with one heart and one mind, and he would happily do as he said. If there is harmony, the world can be settled. If you don't leave soon today, you may do it first. " On the right is the delivery line. When I arrived in Xiakou, I heard that Cao Cao had gone to Jingzhou, and he was on his way in the morning and evening. Compared with Nanjun, but the bush had already got off, and he was ready to go south and meet him in Changban, Dangyang. Su Xuan appeared in the newspaper, discussing the world's major events, showing his hospitality, and asked Bei, "What does Yuzhou want today?" Bei said, "I have an old friendship with Wu Ju, the satrap of Cangwu, and I want to vote for him." Su Su said: "Sun pursues intelligence, kindness and kindness, and respects wise and humble people. He once belonged to six counties, and his soldiers had enough refined food to make a difference. Today is your plan, so I will send my heart to the East to help the world. And if you want to vote for Wu Ju, giants are mortal, and in distant counties, they will be merged by others. Is it enough? " I am very happy. Sue called Zhuge Liang and said, "I am a good friend." That is, * * * fixed. Zi Yu, Ming Di Jin Ye, avoided chaos in Jiangdong, and became a long history of Sun Quan. I plan to live in the wall of Hubei county when I am idle. Cao Cao went down the river from Jiangling, and Zhuge Liang said to Liu Bei, "It's urgent. Please order General Sun for help. " So both Lu Su and Sun Quan are interested in Sun Quan. When Liang saw that Chai Sang was in power, he said, "There was chaos at sea. The general set out for Jiangdong, and Liu Yuzhou took over Hannan to compete with Cao Cao for the world. Today, the defeat of barbarians is a great disaster, and it is a little flat, so Jingzhou is broken and the world is awesome. Heroes are useless, so Yuzhou fled here. May the general do what he can! If you can compete with China with the people of wuyue, it is better to give up early; If not, why not put armor on soldiers and do it in the north! Today, in the name of submission, the general is hesitant, and things are urgent, and it never rains but it pours! " Quan said, "In that case, why didn't Liu Yuzhou do it?" Liang Yue said, "Tian Heng, a strong man of Qi, still has his righteousness and does not humiliate him; In addition, Liu Yuzhou's royal family has outstanding talents and is admired by all the people. If things are not good, this is heaven and security can be restored! " Quan flew into a rage and said, "I can't support the whole land of Wu, and hundreds of thousands of people are subject to others." I'll decide! " You can't be Cao Cao unless you are Liu Yuzhou. However, after Yuzhou's new defeat, is it hard for Ann to resist this? "Liang said," Although the Yuzhou army was defeated by Nagano, there are still 10,000 troops in Guan Yu's water army, not less than 10,000 in Jiangxia's Liu Qibing. Cao Cao's men came from afar, exhausted. I heard that I was chasing Yuzhou, so I rode for more than 300 miles and spent one hundred and one nights. This so-called "a spent force cannot penetrate Lu" is also true, so the art of war is taboo, saying "you must be a general." Northerners don't learn to fight in water; Moreover, the people of Jingzhou are attached to the operators and are not convinced by the situation. Now, the general can lead tens of thousands of soldiers to form a brave army and defeat Cao Cao's army together with Yuzhou Xiegui. If Cao Cao is in Pojun, he will return to the north; In this way, Jing and Wu are strong and walk on their feet. The chance of success or failure is today! "QuanDaYue, conspiracy under its group.
At that time, Cao Cao wrote a telegram saying, "It's almost time to resign, and Liu Cong gave up. Today, there are 800 water conservancy troops, and Fang and the generals will hunt in Wu. " Under the strength of the group, it will be shocked and eclipsed. Zhang Zhao, a long history, and others said, "Cao Gong and Gou Hu also conquered all directions by relying on the emperor, using the imperial court as an excuse. Today, he refused, and things got worse. And the general trend can refuse to hold, the Yangtze River also; There are candidates in Jingzhou today, Liu Biao is in charge of water conservancy, and Meng Chong has thousands of warships. Cao Cao knew that they were drifting along the river, both infantry and land. This is the risk of the Yangtze River that has always been with me. And powerful. It is better to satisfy a stupid plan than to satisfy it. " Lu Su said nothing alone. Have the right to change clothes and pursue Yu Xia. Knowing his intention, Su Quan shook his hand and said, "What do you want to say?" Su Su said, "I just want to make ordinary mistakes, but I don't want to do anything important. Today, you can see Cao's ears, just like a general. Why is there still a long way to go? Nowadays, Cao Cao should repay the hard-working party with Su and enjoy its prestige. He is still not lost to Cao Cao, riding a calf, being a servant, making friends with literati and being tired of officials, so he is not lost to counties. The general welcomes Cao Cao. Do you want to go home safely? I hope to make a big plan early, don't use everyone's discussion! " Quan sighed and said, "The people all hold this proposal and are very disappointed. Today, you have a big plan, you are with me. " When Zhou Yu was sent to Fan Yang, he urged the Emperor to recall Zhou Yu. When Zhou Yu arrived, he said to Quan, "Although Cao Cao is famous, he is actually a Chinese thief. With SHEN WOO's outstanding talent and the strength of his fathers and brothers, the general divided his troops into Jiangdong, spent thousands of miles, made good use of his soldiers, and worked hard as a hero to eliminate the residue and filth for the Han family; What evil did Cao Cao Can encounter when he died? Please lift it for the general. Today, the land in the north is uneven, and Ma Chao and Han Sui are still in Kansai, which is Cao Cao's future trouble; And hold the pommel horse, fight the boat, and compete with wuyue. It's cold now, and the horse has no draft grass. Driving China scholars to travel far and wide. If you are not used to water and soil, you will get sick. This number also suffers from fighting, and Cao Cao is desperate. General, fuck it. It should be today. I invited tens of thousands of elite soldiers to live in Xiakou, which was guaranteed by the general! " Quan said, "The old thief wants to abolish Han, and he has been on his own for a long time, avoiding Yuan, Lu Bu, Liu Biao and Gu Er; Today, the number of men has been destroyed, but loneliness still exists. Loneliness and an old thief are at odds, and your words will be attacked, even with loneliness. On this day, you will grant loneliness. " Because he drew a sword against the case of former Qin, he said, "Generals and officials dare to speak again and be people who welcome Cao Cao, just like this case!" This is a strike. That night, Yu saw Quan again and said, "You all read the book that water has 800,000 steps, but you are afraid of it and don't know what it is. It is meaningless for you to hold this discussion again. Today, with a real school, there are only150,000 people in China, and they have long been exhausted; The income is also extremely 70,000 to 80,000 ears, which is still suspicious. The husband guarded the suspicious crowd with a tired soldier. Although there are many people, they are not afraid. Zhou Yu got 50 thousand chosen men and was self-sufficient. May the general not worry! " All touched his back and said, "it's lonely for you to say that." Zi Bu and Yuan Biao are very concerned about their wives and deeply disappointed with their private concerns. Du Qing and Amethyst share a common loneliness. On this day, Qinghe praises loneliness! Fifty thousand soldiers could not be combined, so thirty thousand people were chosen, and ships, food and war gear were readily available. Qing Zi Jing and Chenggong were in the first place, and they were left alone to continue sending many people, carrying more resources and providing support for Qing Dynasty. If you can do it, you really decide. If you are unhappy, you will be lonely and alone with Meng De. " So Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu were the left and right governors, and the soldiers and equipment were combined with each other. Praise the army for helping painting with Lu Su as a captain. ……
Jin and Cao Cao met at Chibi. At that time, Cao Cao's troops were already epidemic. On the first day of the war, Cao Cao's army was unfavorable and was led to Jiangbei. When Yu and others are in the south bank, Yu will say to Huang Gai: "Today, being outnumbered, it is difficult to last. Fuck the army, connect the boats, end to end, and you can burn them. " We brought ten Meng Chong warships, loaded with dry firewood, filled with oil, wrapped them with curtains, put flags on them, and tied them to our tails. First, keep books for exercise and cheat the clouds. When the southeast wind is in a hurry, ten ships are at the forefront, Zhongjiang sails, and the rest of the ships are in the second place. All the officials and the officials who ran the army stood up from the camp, pointing at the words and hiding. I went to the northern army for more than two miles, and I was also on fire. The fire was fierce, and the ship was like an arrow leaving the string, burning up the north ship and extending to the shore. In a short time, smoke billowed, and more people were burned and drowned. The rate was light and sharp, and then thunder rumbled, drumming and shouting, and the northern army suffered heavy losses. Cao Cao led the army through Huarong Road. Muddy, impassable roads, windy, just know that the soldiers are forced to fill up with grass, but it is impossible to ride. Soldiers were beaten by men and horses, trapped in the mud, and many people died. Liu Bei and Zhou Yu went hand in hand and chased Cao Cao to Nanjun. I was at war with the army, and when I was hungry, half of the dead were dead. Cao Cao ordered Cao Ren, the southern general, and Huang Xu, the horizontal general, to guard Jiangling, and rushed to Xiangyang with pleasure and led the army back to the north.
The translation of Battle of Red Cliffs is as follows:
When Lu Su heard that Liu Biao had died, he said to Sun Quan, "Jingzhou is next to us, with dangerous mountains and rivers, vast and fertile land and rich people. If you can have it, this is the basis for creating the great cause of emperors. Now that Liu Biao has just died, his two sons are at odds. Some generals in the army support this and some support that. Liu Bei is an outstanding figure in the world. He had a grudge against Cao Cao and lived at Liu Biao's place. Liu Biao was jealous of his talent and didn't value him. If Liu Bei and Liu Biao's men are United as one, then we should appease them and form an alliance with them. If we don't work together, we must find another job and achieve the great cause of the emperor. I hope I can be ordered to mourn Liu Biao's two sons, comfort those in power in the army, and persuade Liu Bei to appease Liu Biao's subordinates and unite against Cao Cao. Liu Beihui is happy to accept our opinions. If this matter can be a complete success, the general trend of the world can be determined. If you don't hurry now, I'm afraid Cao Cao will get ahead of you. " Sun Quan immediately sent Lu Su. When Lu Su arrived in Xiakou, he heard that Cao Cao had marched into Jingzhou and worked day and night. By the time he reached Nanjun, Liu Cong had surrendered to Cao Cao, and Liu Bei fled to the south. Lu Su went directly to Liu Bei and met Liu Bei in Dangyang Changbanpo. Lu Su conveyed Sun Quan's intention, talked about the world situation, and expressed sincere intentions. He asked Liu Bei, "What are you doing in Yuzhou?" Liu Bei said, "I have a friendship with Wu Ju, the satrap of Cangwu, and I intend to go to him." Lu Su said, "General Sun Qiulu is clever and kind, and respects the virtuous and treats the scholars. All the heroes in Jiangnan joined him. He has occupied six counties, and his soldiers have enough refined grain to accomplish great things. Now, for your sake, it's best to send people close to you to make friends with Wu Dong, so as to establish achievements that will be passed down to future generations. You are going to martial arts. Wu Ju is an ordinary person, remote in a distant county, and will soon be annexed. Where can you lean? " Liu Bei is very happy. Lu Su said to Zhuge Liang, "I am a friend of Yu Zi." The two men immediately established a friendship. Yu Zi, Zhu Gejin, Zhuge Liang's younger brother, came to Jiangdong to escape the war, and now he is a long history of Sun Quan. Liu Bei adopted Lu Su's plan and stationed his troops in Fankou, Hubei County.
Cao Cao was coming down the river from Jiangling when Zhuge Liang said to Liu Bei, "It's urgent. Please let me be ordered to ask General Sun for help. " Go to Sun Quan with Lu Su. Zhuge Liang met with Sun Quan in Chaisang and advised Sun Quan: "Now the world is in chaos. General, you are fighting in Jiangdong, and Liu Yuzhou is recruiting troops in Hannan to compete with Cao Cao for the world. Now that Cao Cao has wiped out several major disasters, the situation is basically settled, so he has greatly broken Jingzhou and won a great reputation throughout the country. Heroes are useless, and Liu Yuzhou fled here. I hope the general can estimate his own strength to deal with this situation. If wuyue's men can really fight against Cao Cao's strength, it is better to sever ties with him as soon as possible; If not, why not stop military action, tighten your armor and work for him facing north! Now the general is ostensibly obedient, but in his heart he is indecisive. The matter is urgent and cannot be decided. Only a few days away from the catastrophe! " Sun Quan said, "If that's what you said, why didn't Liu Yuzhou serve Cao Cao?" Zhuge Liang said, "Tian Heng is just a strong man of Qi. He can still stick to his ethics, refuse to yield and be humiliated. " What's more, Liu Yuzhou is a descendant of the royal family in the Han Dynasty, and his wisdom exceeds that of all his contemporaries. Many people love him and support him, as if water belongs to the sea. If you can't succeed in your career, it's just providence. How can I be a subordinate of Cao Cao again? "Sun Quan said angrily," I can't use the whole Wu and hundreds of troops to control others. I have made up my mind! "In addition to Liu Yuzhou, no one can resist Cao Cao with me. However, Liu Yuzhou just lost the battle. How can he stand this disaster? " Zhuge Liang said: "Although Liu Yuzhou's army lost in the battle of Changbanpo, there are still 10,000 soldiers and the elite of the water army led by Guan Yu, and no less than 10,000 Liu Qibing recruited Jiangxia. Cao Cao's army was exhausted from far away. It is said that when chasing Liu Yuzhou, the light cavalry had to walk more than 300 miles a day and night. This is what people often say:' an arrow shot from a strong bow can't even penetrate Lu's filaments'. Therefore, this situation is taboo in Sun Tzu's Art of War, saying that' it will definitely frustrate the commander-in-chief'. Besides, the soldiers in the north are not used to fighting on water, and the people in Jingzhou joined Cao Cao only because they were coerced by force, but did not really surrender. Now the general can really send brave generals to command tens of thousands of troops and plan with Liu Yuzhou, so that Qi Xin can defeat Cao Cao's army together. Cao Cao's army was defeated and must return to the north; In this way, the power of Jingzhou and Wu will be strengthened, forming a three-point world situation. The key to success or failure is today! " Sun Quan was very happy and discussed the matter with his courtiers.
At this moment, Cao Cao sent a letter to Sun Quan, saying, "Recently, at the behest of the emperor, we crusaded against the guilty, marched south, and Liu Cong surrendered. Now I have trained 800,000 sailors to go hunting with Dongwu generals. " Sun Quan showed Cao Cao's letter to the courtiers, and there was no one who didn't like being shocked by this loud noise. Zhang Zhao, a long history, and others said, "Cao Cao is a wolf, a tiger and a leopard. He held the emperor hostage and attacked everywhere. He always uses the name of the imperial court as an excuse. Today, it is unreasonable to resist him. Besides, the advantage that the general can resist Cao Cao is the Yangtze River; Now that Cao Cao has captured Jingzhou, he has completely occupied this place. Liu Biao trained thousands of warships, large and small. Cao Cao scattered these warships along the river, as well as infantry, which is the natural barrier of the Yangtze River. The size of the military strength and he can't compare. We believe that welcoming him is a foolproof solution. " Only Lu Su didn't speak. Sun Quan went to the toilet, while Lu Su chased him under the porch. Knowing his intention, Sun Quan took his hand and said, "What are you trying to say?" Lu Su said: "I have just carefully analyzed your comments. Their opinions will only delay you, and it is not worth planning state affairs with them. Now I, Lu Su, can submit to Cao Cao, but like a general, you can't. What makes you say that? If I, Lu Su, surrender to Cao Cao, Cao Cao will send me back to my hometown to evaluate my fame and status, and I will not lose my position as a county magistrate, take an ox cart, lead officials and lead troops, associate with the literati and officialdom, and rise step by step. General, you surrender. What does Cao Cao want? I hope you can make a big plan as soon as possible and don't adopt the opinions of those people! " Sun Quan sighed and said, "I am very disappointed with the opinions held by those people. Now the correct policy you have elaborated is exactly the same as my idea. "
At that time, Zhou Yu accepted the mission and went to Fan Yang. Lu Su advised Sun Quan to call Zhou Yu back. Zhou Yu came back and said to Sun Quan, "Cao Cao is a traitor in the Han Dynasty under the guise of being the prime minister of the Han Dynasty. General, with superhuman military ability and outstanding talent, relying on the merits of your father and brother, you occupied Jiangdong area, with a land of thousands of miles, an elite army, sufficient materials and a willing hero. You want to ride the world, eliminate violence and be good for the Han family. Besides, Cao Cao himself came to die. How can he surrender to him? Please allow me to analyze this matter in detail for the general. Now the north has not been pacified, and Ma Chao and Han Sui are still west of Hanguguan, which is Cao Cao's future trouble. Cao Cao gave up the cavalry and relied on the water army to compete with Wu Dong. It's cold now, and the horse has no draught fodder. Driving troops from the central plains to the rivers and lakes, the water and soil are not used to it, and it is bound to get sick. These things are the most taboo in war, but Cao Cao did it so rashly. The general should arrest Cao Cao today. I asked tens of thousands of elite troops to March on Xiakou. We must defeat Cao Cao as a general. " Sun Quan said, "Cao Cao, an old thief, has long wanted to abolish the Han emperor, but he just cares about Er Yuan, Lu Bu, Liu Biao and me." Now those heroes are all dead, and only I am still here. I am at odds with the old thief. You said you should fight him, which is in line with my opinion. God gave you to me! "So he drew his sword, cut down the low table in front of him where the memorial was placed, and said," All civil and military officials dare to surrender to Cao Cao, just like this table! "
So the meeting was cancelled. In the evening, Zhou Yu went to see Sun Quan again and said, "It is very unreasonable for people to stop evaluating the authenticity of Cao Cao's letter when they saw that there were 800 thousand infantry in the water army. Now, according to the actual situation, the Central Plains army led by him is only 150,000 to 60,000, and it has long been exhausted. He got Liu Biao's army, which is 70,000 to 80,000 at most, and he is still hesitating. There is nothing to be afraid of using an exhausted army to control the hesitant surrenders, although there are many people. If I can have fifty thousand soldiers, I can completely subdue him. I hope the general doesn't have to worry! " Sun Quan patted Zhou Yu on the back and said, "Gong Jin, what you said here suits me very well. Zibu and Yuan Biao, everyone only cares about their wives and children, and they all have selfish plans, which makes me very disappointed. Only you and Amethyst are United with me. God sent you two to help me! It is difficult to assemble 50,000 elite soldiers at once, and 30,000 people have been selected. Ships, food and combat weapons are all ready. You, Amethyst and Cheng Gong can start first. I will continue to dispatch troops and load more materials and grain as your backup. If you can handle it, fight it. If the war is unfavorable, come to me again I should fight Cao Mengde to the death. " Therefore, Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu were appointed as deputy commanders, led the troops to resist Cao Cao together with Liu Bei, and appointed Lu Su as a captain of Zanjun to help plan the operational strategy.
March and meet Cao Cao's army at Chibi.
At this time, Cao Cao's army was infected with this disease. At the beginning of the war, Cao Jun was defeated and retreated to the north bank of the Yangtze River. Zhou Yu and others were stationed on the south bank. Zhou Yu said to Huang Gai: "Now that the enemy is outnumbered, it is difficult to persist with them for a long time. Cao Jun is connected with warships, end to end, and they can be defeated by fire and escape. " So he used ten Meng Chong battleships, which were filled with dry reeds and dead wood, poured oil on them, wrapped them in tents, planted flags, prepared canoes in advance and connected them to the stern of the warships. Send a letter to Cao Cao first, assuming surrender. The southeast wind was blowing hard at that time. Huang Gai put ten warships in front, and when he reached the middle of the river, he hung up the sails, and the rest of the ships moved forward in order. Soldiers and officers in Cao Cao's army stood outside the barracks, watching, pointing and talking about Huang Gai's surrender. How far away from Cao Jun Er Li, all the ships ignited at the same time, and the fire was fierce, and the ships sailed like arrows, burning all the ships in Cao Jun in the north and spreading to the barracks on the shore. After a while, smoke and flames filled the sky, and Cao Cao's men were burned to death and drowned a lot. Zhou Yu and other elite troops followed closely, beating gongs and drums and attacking on a large scale. Cao Jun was defeated. Cao Cao led the defeated troops to escape on foot from Huarong County. When encountering mud, the road was impassable, and the wind was strong, Cao Cao ordered the weak soldiers to fill the road with grass, so that the cavalry could pass. Those weak soldiers were trampled by people and horses, got stuck in the mud and died a lot. Liu Bei and Zhou Yu went hand in hand from land and water at the same time, pursuing Cao Jun until Nanjun. At that time, Cao Cao's army was also hungry and sick, and more than half of them died. Cao Cao then left Cao Ren, the general of the Southern Expedition, and Huang Xu, the general of Yokono, to guard Jiangling, while General Chong gladly guarded Xiangyang and led his troops back to the north.
Extended data:
Battle of Red Cliffs refers to the battle between Sun Quan and Liu Bei in Chibi of the Yangtze River (now northwest of chibi city, Hubei Province) in the 13th year of Jian 'an in the late Eastern Han Dynasty (208). This is one of the most famous battles in the history of China, and the most famous of the "three major battles" in the Three Kingdoms period. It is also the first large-scale battle in the Yangtze River basin in China history, which indicates that China's military and political center is no longer limited to the Yellow River basin. Finally, Sun and Liu joined forces to attack with fire, and Cao Cao returned to the north. Sun and Liu each took a part of Jingzhou, which laid the foundation for the tripartite confrontation among the three countries.
Battle of Red Cliffs's failure made Cao Cao lose the possibility of unifying the whole country in a short time, while Sun and Liu started the development of their respective forces through Battle of Red Cliffs's victory. After Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou from Sun Quan, his strength grew rapidly and he made a profit. Sun Quan led the army to attack Hefei many times, which was unfavorable in several wars. After returning to the north, Cao Cao spent five years recuperating and pacifying Guanzhong before conquering Sun Quan on a large scale. This war formed the embryonic form of the third part of the world and laid the foundation for the tripartite confrontation among the three countries.
