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

"No wonder these Wu troops had such strong combat effectiveness. They were counting on the Shanyue people to save them. Cao

Cao sighed in admiration and said,"Fortunately, Ziyou, you are thoughtful and saw through Sun Quan's plot. Otherwise, I would have really been negligent. Sun Quan would still have the Shanyue people as foreign aid.""

Cao Yuan smiled.

Guo Jiaze said:"Then we can monitor the roads east of Jianye. As long as we detect the Shanyue people coming, we can use our tactics and wait for Sun Quan to fall into the trap!

Cao Cao sneered and waved his hand:"According to the filial piety plan, I will eradicate Shanyue, the cancer of Jiangdong!"

……

Five days later, it was night.

On the tower of Jianye South Gate.

Sun Quan and Zhuge Liang stood side by side, staring south.

The two of them looked beyond the Wei camp and landed on the dark Qingliang Mountain in the night.

Two days ago, Lu Xun and Zhu Huan's messenger sneaked into Jianye City and brought good news to Sun Quan.

As Zhuge Liang expected, the Shanyue people declared their submission to Wu Ting.

Shanyue people from various tribes gathered nearly 30,000 horses. Under the leadership of Lu Xun and Zhu Huan, they were rushing over the mountains and ridges to Jianye.

According to the agreement, the Shanyue reinforcements will fight out of Qingliang Mountain, encircle the Wei army in the south, and launch a surprise attack.

Sun Quan, on the other hand, will send the elite Wu army to fight out from the south gate and attack the Wei camp.

The two armies cooperated inside and outside, and defeated the Wei army's southern camp in one fell swoop.

The moon is at its zenith, and the appointed time is approaching.

Sun Quan secretly clenched his fists, showing his inner uneasiness.

"In the future, your Majesty will aspire to conquer the Central Plains and dominate the world. He should have the determination to remain calm even if Mount Tai collapses. Now it is just a small night attack. Your Majesty, you should keep calm."

Zhuge Liang saw that Sun Quan was uneasy, so he persuaded Sun Quan with earnest words.

These words were originally an allusion to Sun Quan's lack of determination, but the words"Aspiring to conquer the Central Plains and rule the world" made Sun Quan feel very happy. A flash of light flashed in Sun Quan's eyes. With a touch of pride, he cupped his hands and said,"What the military advisor taught me is something that I, the king, should bear in mind."

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly.

Sun Quan respected him and obeyed his words, which naturally made him very useful.

At this moment, he was even more convinced that he had made the wisest decision to abandon Sun Ce and support Sun Quan.

"This Sun Zhongmou is really a wise master who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the King of Han.……"

Zhuge Liang was secretly pleased

"Look, my king, the beacon is rising in the direction of Qingliang Mountain! Zhou

Tai beside him excitedly pointed to the south.

Sun Quan was refreshed and looked eagerly. Sure enough, he saw three beacons rising in the night sky in the direction of Qingliang Mountain.

The three beacons were agreed upon with Lu Xun. War signal

"Lu Xun took action! Sun

Quan's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he shouted:"Send the order to Duke Huang, and immediately lead his army to fight out from the south gate and march directly to the encirclement camp of the Wei army!""

The order was passed.

The closed south gate of Jianye suddenly opened wide, and the suspension bridge was lowered.

The veteran Huang Gaice, holding a sword in his horse, rushed out of the city gate first.

The 5,000 Wu troops behind him, who had been gathering momentum for a long time, also rushed out like a torrent. pouring out from the city gate.

The Wu army took advantage of the cover of night and rushed straight to the south of the Wei army to encircle the camp.

On the city tower,

Sun Quan watched his five thousand elite soldiers go away, with a sneer on his brow that he was determined to win.

"Military Advisor Kong Ming, if this king can severely injure the Cao thieves today and resolve the siege of Jianye in one fell swoop, you will have made an unparalleled contribution. I will definitely reward you! Sun

Quan was extremely confident and determined that he would win tonight, so he began to promise Zhuge Liang a reward.

Zhuge Liang smiled, but he held his hand and said humbly:"Your Majesty's words are serious, my lord."——"

He was about to resign humbly, but his eyes turned and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

As soon as the conversation changed, Zhuge Liang said with a smile:"If the king really wants to reward me, I really want to ask for a reward from the king.""

"Whatever the military advisor wants to do, no matter what, even if it is the bright moon in the sky, I will pluck it for you! Sun

Quan agreed without even asking.

Zhuge Liang took a deep breath, cupped his hands and said seriously:"I would like to ask the king to betroth Princess Sun to me as my wife.""

Sun Quan was startled. He did not expect that Zhuge Liang would ask for such a reward.

Zhuge Liang had his own difficulties.

Although he had contributed to Sun Quan's support and was now Sun Quan's most trusted adviser, it was too late to join the Sun family in the end. There is no foundation.

If he can marry Sun Shangxiang, he will become Sun Quan's brother-in-law, the son-in-law of the Sun family, and become a relative.

With this relationship, he can establish a stronghold in the Wu Kingdom as quickly as possible. Foundation.

Moreover, it is a foundation that no one can shake.

Sun Quan is so smart. With a turn of his eyes, he understood the deep meaning of Zhuge Liang's request to marry his sister.

However, he regarded Zhuge Liang as a loyal minister, and he also had the intention to win over Zhuge Liang. She worked hard for him and gave him advice with all her heart.

Betrotting his sister to Zhuge Liang and recruiting him as the son-in-law of the Sun family was the perfect way to win over him.

The two had different ideas, but they hit it off.

Sun Quan said happily:"Kong Ming The military advisor is a prodigy in the world, and Shang Xiangshi is a talented and beautiful woman. They are a perfect match made in heaven. This king has approved this marriage! Zhuge

Liang secretly rejoiced and thanked him.

Sun Quan laughed and said:"When you win this battle and lift the siege of Jianye, I will personally solemnize your marriage, so that you, the military advisor, can be in full glory." Marry Shang Xiang!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty has been so kind to me, and I have no way of repaying it, so I must devote my whole life to your Majesty and die for me!"

Zhuge Liang bowed deeply, once again showing his loyalty.

Sun Quan helped Zhuge Liang up, and the monarch and his ministers looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

They then turned around and looked towards Wei Ying from a distance with smiles that were determined to win. Go.

The thundering sound of killing suddenly sounded, breaking the silence of the night.

In the Wei camp, countless torches were dancing, and countless soldiers appeared in the firelight.

A surprise attack had begun.

And in the Wei camp Outside, on a hill.

Cao Cao and Cao Yuan were stationed side by side, looking in the direction of the Wei camp.

The fire was soaring into the sky, and the sound of killing was rumbling, as far as the eye could see.

A scout on horseback galloped forward.

"Report to your Majesty, tens of thousands of Shanyue troops are coming out of Qingliang Mountain, intending to launch a surprise attack on our southern encirclement."

"Five thousand Wu troops also rushed out from the south gate of Jianye, wanting to launch a frontal attack on our south camp."

The scouts reported loudly.

On the left and right, Guo Jia, Cao Ren and other advisers and generals were all in great spirits. They all looked at Cao Yuan with admiration.

"Ziyou, everything is under your control!"

Cao Cao also sighed and looked at his son.

Cao Yuan smiled faintly and raised his hand to point to Wei Ying:"Your Majesty, the fish has been caught in the net, it is time to close the net."

Cao Cao's murderous intention arose wildly, and he raised his horsewhip boldly:"Light the beacon fire, send orders to all the generals, set up the ambush, and extinguish Sun Quan's last hope for me!"
