Three Kingdoms: The identity of the financial master behind the scenes was exposed by Cao Cao

All the generals were in an uproar.

Cao Yuan dared to recommend Lü Meng to Cao Cao for such a young general whom he had never heard of, but he actually asked Cao Cao to appoint him as the commander of the navy!

Is this Lu Meng really so powerful that he can be so highly regarded by the best counselor in the world?

"Ziyou, can this Lu Meng really defeat Wenpin?"

Cao Cao said half-convinced and half-questioned.

Cao Yuan said calmly:"Lu Meng's strength in commanding the navy may be a little less than Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, but it should be more than enough to deal with a civil servant."

Seeing that his son valued Lü Meng so much, Cao Cao gave up his suspicions.

He immediately sent people to Shouchun, hastened it for eight hundred miles, and transferred Lü Meng to serve in front of the army.

At the same time, under Cao Yuan's suggestion, in order to The training time of the navy was shortened, and more than 5,000 soldiers who were proficient in water-based skills were directly transferred from Huainan to join them in Fancheng.

……

Seven days later, the Wei army camped in the water.

Cao Cao stood with his hands behind his back, admiring the dragon boat in front of him.

Dian Wei stepped forward to report that Lu Meng had arrived at the camp and was waiting for the call.

Cao Cao perked up, waved his hands and said,"Send the message to Lu Ziming quickly."

After a moment.

A young general came over with a slightly uneasy expression.

At this time, Lu Meng was in a state of confusion. He couldn't understand why the majestic King of Wei suddenly came all the way to summon a nobody like himself.

Under the suspicious eyes of all the big men in the Wei camp, Lu Meng came to Cao Cao anxiously.

"The last general, Lu Meng, pays homage to the king!"

He took a deep breath, bowed down, and tried his best to show that he was neither humble nor overbearing.

"Get flat. Cao

Cao waved his hand slightly and asked:"Lu Ziming, do you know what the king called you to do?"

Lu Meng hurriedly said:"I forgive you for being so stupid. I don't know.""

"Take a look at these dragon boats behind you first."

Cao Cao raised his hand and pointed behind him.

Lu Meng was at a loss, turned around and looked at the giant dragon boat in the water camp.

In an instant, he took a breath of cold air and a look of shock flashed in his eyes.

Just now he felt uneasy, He didn't pay attention to these warships at all. Only then did he suddenly notice the huge ships in front of him.

"Your Majesty, these ships……"

Lu Meng turned his head tremblingly and looked at Cao Cao in surprise and confusion.

"These dragon boats were built for me by Military Advisor Ziyou, specifically for use in water battles. What do you think?"

Cao Cao glanced at Cao Yuan beside him with a smile.

Hearing that this giant ship was built by Cao Yuan, Lu Meng was shocked and looked anxiously at the young Wei planner.

"It is said that this Caozhou Mu is as resourceful as a god and has great magical powers. He is the best strategist in the world!"

"I didn’t expect that he could actually build a boat. He was truly a god!"

Lü Meng was shocked in his heart, and deep respect could not help but rise in his brows.

After calming down for a while, Lü Meng sighed in admiration:"This warship built by the military advisor is the strongest warship that the general has ever seen in his life. There is no warship in the world. If the ship can compete with it, even the building ship that Wu Jun is most proud of will be eclipsed."

Among the various naval armies in the south, the Jiangdong navy of King Wu Sun Ce was the strongest. The tower ships he built were once known as the largest and most powerful warships in the world.

Lu Meng was proficient in water warfare and naturally also studied the Wu army's tower ships.

Originally, in In his heart, Wu Junlouchuan, the strongest in the world, is now not worth mentioning in front of this dragon boat.

"Lu Meng, I ask you, if you are asked to command a navy and use this dragon boat as a warship to deal with the Han navy under the command of Wenpin, what are your chances of winning?"

Cao Cao then asked.

Lu Meng was silent and looked at the Han army's water camp on the other side. His eyes changed, as if he was rehearsing a water battle in his heart.

After a long time,

Lu Meng said proudly:"Wenpin's water battle is mediocre. If the general is allowed to lead the dragon boat to fight with them, the general will be 70% sure to defeat Wenpin!"

Cao Ren and other generals called him good guy.

After all, Wenpin was a famous general in Jingzhou. He had commanded the Xiangyang navy since Liu Biao's time. He was truly a good general in naval warfare. When it came to Lu Meng's mouth, he got""Water War is mediocre"

"Our military advisor recommends this unknown young general, how crazy is that!"

The generals looked at each other with the same thought in their minds.

Cao Cao laughed loudly and praised:"You are so good, Lü Meng. You are really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. You are so crazy that you are very happy with me!"

Lü Meng was flattered to be so praised by the King of Wei.

But he was extremely confused. This aloof King of Wei summoned him all the way, asked these strange questions, and then gave him a meal. Boast, what are you trying to do?

"Your Majesty, I would like to ask you, my Majesty, what is your order when you summon your Majesty? Lu

Meng boldly asked.

Cao Cao stopped laughing and shouted solemnly:"Lu Meng obeys the order!" Lu

Meng was startled for a moment, and then he bent over and listened to the order. Cao Cao waved his hand and said,"I have appointed you as the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy. You will immediately train an elite water force for me. One day, you will lead the dragon boat to battle and defeat the Wen Dynasty for me." The navy hired by this king went to the south bank and captured Xiangyang for me!"

After foreshadowing and testing, Cao Cao finally made up his mind.

Lu Meng was confused.

He froze on the spot, looking dazed, and thought he had an illusion.

Cao Yuan said lightly:"Lu Ziming, what are you doing standing there stupidly? Why don't you accept the order quickly?."

Lü Meng came back to his senses, but was not flattered.

He knelt down to accept the edict. He took a deep breath, cupped his hands and said:"Your Majesty, the last general is just a nobody. Why would the king entrust such a heavy responsibility to the last general? Please tell me clearly.!"

"Because you are the person recommended by Ziyou Military Advisor. Cao

Cao pointed at Cao Yuan and said with a sincere expression:"The people he recommended to me have never disappointed me. He said that you are a water warfare wizard who can fight the Han River for me. How can I?" There is no reason why you are not needed! Lu

Meng suddenly understood, and looked at Cao Yuan with grateful and surprised eyes.

Grateful because Cao Yuan, a talented person, made him rise from an unknown soldier to the commander-in-chief of the navy of the Wei Dynasty. He couldn't figure out how the best counselor in the world, who had never met him, was so sure that he had the ability to defeat Wenpin. For a moment, Lu Meng was hesitant, wondering whether he should take on this important task.

"Lu Meng, in this life, you don’t always have the chance to become famous in one battle."

"If you don't have the courage to take on this important task, go back to Shouchun immediately. Don't hesitate like a woman!"

Cao Yuan shouted sternly.

These words immediately aroused Lu Meng's ambition, and the remaining worries in his heart disappeared in an instant.

"Thank you, Military Advisor Ziyou, for the recommendation!"

Lu Meng bowed to Cao Yuan first.

Then, he adjusted his clothes, bowed deeply to Cao Cao, and said with emotion:"The last general will live up to the king's trust. Within three months, he will be defeated by civil servants!"
