Guanying City - In the palace, Cao Pi sat in the middle, accompanied by civil and military ministers on both sides. Everyone looked nervous, paying attention to the progress of the battle
"Report¡ª¡ªOn the night of June 22nd, General Cao Xiu divided his troops into four teams, and under the cover of darkness, marched toward the south bank of the Yangtze River one after another!"
"Report - At dawn, the general led a vanguard of 30,000 troops to the beach on the south bank and started a fierce battle with the Wu army. Both sides fought fiercely!"
"Report - the general won a great victory, defeated the Wu army guarding the beach, beheaded 3,000 people, captured 5,000 people, and successively occupied the two cities of Dantu and Qu'a. The second team of troops also successfully landed."
¡¡¡¡
In order to command all the troops and horses, Cao Pi aimed to set up a post station every thirty miles on the north bank of the Yangtze River, with a total of forty-eight stations. They were equipped with the most capable postmen and the strongest horses to ensure the smooth flow of news!
For example, the news that Cao Xiu led his troops to cross the river can be accurately delivered to the palace in Guanying City in just one day and one night. Since the two places are more than 1,300 miles apart, the postmen not only have to gallop, but also need to Cross rivers and cross mountains for the first time!
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, the general is making good progress and has established a firm foothold on the south bank of the Yangtze River. The next step is to attack Jian'an City!"
"There is no movement at all at Chaisang Camp. I guess Lu Xun hasn't received the news yet. By the time he reacts, I'm afraid the general's men will have already reached Healthy City!"
"Haha, come on, let's have a banquet. My dear friends and I will eat and drink while we wait for the general's victory!"
"According to the order!"
Battle reports continued to come in, and the army crossed the river smoothly. Cao Pi and his ministers could not help but let out a sigh of relief, and their hearts were mostly relieved. The difficulty of destroying Wu lay in the natural dangers of the Yangtze River. As long as the Wei army crossed the river, the others would have nothing to fear.
Because they were worried about crossing the river, Cao Pi and his ministers had not thought about food or food for several days. Now that they were relaxed, they suddenly felt hungry, so they quickly ordered people to prepare a banquet to offer sacrifices to the Five Zang Temple!
Delicious delicacies are served, mainly fish, including carp, crucian carp, herring, grass carp, silver carp, bighead carp There are also many ways to eat them, including steamed, braised, souped, and eaten directly. The name of sashimi is: 'fish dumpling', which is a way of eating that has been around since the Shang and Zhou dynasties.
The reason why the fish feast was held was not a whim, but Cao Jun's supply difficulties. In order to save food as much as possible, the soldiers could only eat what they had on the spot, and the Yangtze River had the most fish and shrimps.
So Cao Jun sent a large number of men to fish and catch shrimps in the river every day. They also dug up some mussels, loaches, crabs, etc. and distributed them to the soldiers in each camp. After eating them for several months, there was a fishy smell everywhere in the camp. Some soldiers ate and vomited, but there was nothing they could do if they refused to eat. The ministers had no choice but to set an example and hold fish feasts every three days!
"I respectfully wish your Majesty to conquer the east of the Yangtze River and unify the world!"
"Haha, after I rule the world, I will share the wealth and honor with all my dear friends and enjoy peace!"
"Winning drink!¡ª¡ªWinning drink!"
The ministers were licking their beards while nibbling on fresh fish. Only Cao Pi¡¯s table only had some beef, mutton, and a few seasonal vegetables, but there was no fishy smell at all!
Does Cao Pi not like eating fish?
On the contrary, Cao Pi likes to eat fish very much, and even cannot live without fish. However, in the past ten years, Cao Pi has not even had a sip of fish soup, let alone fish meat!
It¡¯s a long story. In order to compete for the reserve, Cao Pi did not hesitate to use a bitter trick, instigating his men to shoot himself in the heart with poisonous arrows, and then framed it on Cao Zhi, making him unable to argue, and ultimately lost the qualification to seize the reserve!
Later, the doctors pulled out the poisonous arrows in time and saved Cao Pi's life. However, the toxins still remained in the body and had penetrated deeply into the internal organs. Neither acupuncture nor medicine could remove it!
Fortunately, there is very little residual poison, which will not endanger Cao Pi's life, and will not hinder his daily life. However, the doctors repeatedly confessed:
Let Cao Pi cultivate his health, avoid being overjoyed or sad, and abstain from all seafood, otherwise it will stimulate residual poison in the body, cause great harm to the body, and even endanger life!
Cao Pi firmly remembered the doctor's advice. Not only did he not eat seafood or marine fish, he even refused to eat freshwater fish for many years, so he has been safe and sound!
And the doctors who knew about it all mysteriously 'disappeared' afterwards. Therefore, Cao Pi's inability to eat seafood is still a secret. Even the personal eunuchs don't know about it. They just think that the emperor doesn't like seafood!
¡¡¡¡
"Your Majesty, when I was patrolling the river bank, I discovered a monster in the shallow water!"
¡°Oh?What kind of monster is it? "
"Bring it up!"
While eating and drinking, Polu General Xia Houchen walked in, followed by eight soldiers. They carried a huge thing with wooden poles and ropes and placed it on the palace floor!
It turned out to be a big fish, weighing at least three to four hundred kilograms. The body was spindle-shaped, with a pointed head and a long snout. The mouth was under the abdomen. There were five longitudinal bone plates on the back, sides and ventral sides, with spine-like protrusions. It looked ferocious and mighty. The one who shakes his head and tail has not yet died!
Cao Pi and his ministers were mostly from the north. They had never seen such a big fish before. They were all dumbfounded for a while and their curiosity was aroused!
"My dear friends, does anyone know this thing?"
"I have a poor eye and have never seen this thing before. Could it be the legendary boat-eating fish?"
"This fish is certainly not small, and it is not big enough to swallow a boat. Judging from its ferocious and majestic appearance, it is probably a relic of the dragon clan!"
"Call the guide quickly and ask for a clear explanation!"
The ministers came forward to watch one after another, and discussed for a long time, but they could not make a conclusion about the big fish, so they had to summon the guide. The guide was dedicated to guiding the army. He was familiar with the local mountains, rivers, terrain, customs and customs, and was well-informed. The master cannot be left alone!
After a while, the guide came in and was startled when he saw the big fish. He circled around for a few times, nodded thoughtfully, and then introduced in detail
"Reporting to Your Majesty: This thing is a sturgeon, a specialty of the Yangtze River. It is extremely large and is suspected to have dragon blood, so it is also called 'Sturgeon' or 'King of Fishes!'
When this fish was young, it lurked deep in the waves of the Yangtze River, making it difficult for the world to see it. When it grew up, it surfaced. The small ones weighed more than a hundred kilograms, and the large ones weighed hundreds of kilograms. They swam along the river at extremely fast speeds, and with other characteristics. Fish for food!
The meat of sturgeon is delicious and it is the best fish. However, it is extremely large and has the power to overturn rivers and seas. Fishermen cannot catch it at all. Only when the river floods and sturgeons are occasionally stranded on the shore can they be caught by fishermen. Get it, so it can be met but not sought! "
(The book secretly explains: Sturgeon is a large migratory fish that usually inhabits the southeastern coast of China. It is a saltwater fish and feeds on other fish and Category A!
After the sturgeons mature, they will migrate to the Yangtze River in groups, reach the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and breed in the lower reaches of the Jinsha River. After the eggs hatch, the young fish swim back to the sea to live!
The ancients didn¡¯t know why, but they thought that sturgeons lurked in the depths of the Yangtze River when they were young, and only surfaced when they grew up, so they regarded them as freshwater fish! )
"In the past, when King Wu was conquering Zhou and conquering Mengjin, a white fish jumped into the king's boat in the middle of the river. It was an auspicious call. Therefore, he destroyed the Yin and Shang Dynasties in one battle and created the eight hundred-year-old foundation of Zongzhou!
Now, Your Majesty is personally conducting an expedition against the guilty state of Sun Wu, and a fish leaping ashore is also a very auspicious recruitment. Our army will win this battle and Sun Wu will be destroyed. I would like to congratulate Your Majesty! "
"Long live Long live Long live!"
Singing praises to the emperor is one of the compulsory courses for ministers, not to mention such a huge sturgeon is indeed considered auspicious.
"Haha, God has given me an auspicious thing, and I should share it with all my dear friends. Come, come, set up a cauldron to cook fish, and share the delicious food!"
"According to the order!"
Cao Pi may not really believe in the auspicious theory, but it is good to boost the morale of the army during the decisive battle, so he ordered people to cook the sturgeon and enjoy the delicious food!
Just in front of the main hall, more than a dozen royal chefs worked together, scraping scales, disemboweling, and buttoning gills After washing the sturgeons, they stacked them into dozens of sections with giant axes!
The sturgeon weighing hundreds of kilograms cannot be held in ordinary iron pots at all. A huge bronze cauldron was brought in and cooked over high fire. The fragrant fish soup smell soon spread
An hour later, the thick sturgeon soup was ready. It was pure white in color and fragrant, making people salivate. A eunuch tried it with a silver needle and took a few more sips to confirm that there was no problem. Then a bowl was served to the emperor, followed by the civil and military ministers, large and small soldiers
"Haha, the sturgeon soup is really extraordinary. I am really lucky today!"
Smelling the fragrant fish soup, Cao Pi couldn't help but move his fingers, ready to enjoy the delicious food. But when the mouth of the bowl reached his lips, he suddenly hesitated again.
Because the residual poison has not been cleared away, I have not eaten fish or drank fish soup in the past ten years. If I break this example today, will there be any problems?
But then I thought about it, the doctors told me not to eat seafood or marine fish. This sturgeon was caught from the Yangtze River and is a freshwater fish. There should be no problem, right?
What¡¯s more, the emperor didn¡¯t taste it first, and the other ministers didn¡¯t dare to drink it. They all raised their bowls and looked at it. This was too embarrassing?
"Your Majesty, the Grand Master has sent another memorial!"
"Oh, bring it up!"
While hesitating, Xiao Yi's third memorial arrived. Cao Pi quickly put down the fish soup and took the memorial to read. This time it was even shorter, with only eight words - Do not cross the river, be careful of ambush!
