Chapter 204 The Hefei nightmare is here, you love Soochow and you can’t break it!
As the Yangtze River rolls eastward, several awning boats are parked at the dock.
Because this is the Xiangjiang River and Liu Bei's territory, even if Lu Su is sent, it is impossible to send a warship or a large ship.
But Sun Quan specially asked Lu Meng to send him off, which showed how much he valued Lu Su, the governor, and... the importance he attached to the "Four Young Masters of Guan Lin Pass".
"Tzuyu——"
Zhuge Jin was greeting Lu Meng when he heard Lu Su's hoarse voice coming from the cabin of the awning boat.
Lu Meng said quickly: "The Governor asked Ziyu to go to the cabin to talk..."
oh…
Zhuge Jin raised his eyes and saw Lu Meng's meaningful eyes. He looked back at Guan Lin and saw that he didn't seem to mind.
"Okay..." Zhuge Jin agreed and asked Lu Meng while getting on the boat.
"Is the Governor's illness getting better?"
"Still the same, coughing badly, this time... I hope Zhang Zhongjing can cure him!"
After listening to Lu Meng's words, Zhuge Jin sighed and said with emotion: "It was not the Divine Doctor Zhongjing who cured him, but the Fourth Young Master Guan allowed the Divine Doctor Zhongjing to cure him..."
After saying that, Zhuge Jin looked back at Guan Lin and quickly got on the boat.
For a time, apart from a few servants of Soochow and Guan Lin's tribe, Guan Lin and Lu Meng were the only two people left by the Laodao River.
Guan Lin, on the other hand, walked to Lu Meng's side with great interest.
Look on the left, look on the right...look up and down.
Lu Meng looked a little uncomfortable and said in a cold voice.
"Your Excellency is the Fourth Young Master Guan, right?"
Guan Lin didn't answer him.
At this moment, his mind had already gone to the sky.
What he was thinking of was...
Finally I met Lu Meng. He looks like a human, is in his thirties, has a handsome demeanor, and has a handsome face. Why is he so indifferent?
What Guan Lin thought of was Lu Meng's white clothes crossing the river, Lu Meng's shamelessness, and Lu Meng's backstabbing!
Of course, Guan Lin can also understand that Lu Meng was born in the military, not an elite politician, nor a big clan. His strategic vision is still far from that of Lu Su, Xun Yu, Zhuge Liang...
After all, he is just a dog of the Sun family, and he will bite whoever he is told to bite?
Guan Lin continued to look, looking around in circles... as if he were looking at an "animal"!
Lu Meng became increasingly uncomfortable.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Guan Lin opened his mouth and asked: "Is the general from Fubei County, Runan?"
Lu Meng replied coldly: "So what?"
Guan Lin just nodded and recalled that Lu Meng's hometown, the so-called "Fubei County in Runan", was later known as "Lujiagang, Wanghua Town, Funan County, Anhui Province"...
Of course, this is not the point.
The point is that Guan Lin went there, and then heard from people here that in his hometown... all the stone statues of Lu Meng himself were smashed.
The reason is also very strange.
In the 1980s and 1990s, businessmen from the south came here to investigate investment.
And southern businessmen all worship the God of Wealth!
Who is the God of Wealth? It’s Guan Gong!
But when I saw that there was a statue of Lu Meng here, could Guan Gong bless them and make them rich?
He immediately became very angry and did not want to invest. As a result, the local government had no choice but to demolish the Lü Meng statue, euphemistically saying it was because of "traffic problems"!
Of course, there are too many things like this. There is also the Lingling Martial Arts Temple in Yongzhou, which is known as the largest martial arts temple south of the Yangtze River. But the amazing thing is that this temple was originally Lu Meng's temple.
There is also the Wuhou Temple in Gong'an County, Jingzhou, which was originally also the Lü Meng Temple.
During the Ming Dynasty, a Jinshi came here and saw that the person being worshiped was Lü Meng. He was very angry and said that a sinister villain like Lü Meng deserved to be worshiped for thousands of years? Smash it, and worship Zhuge Liang instead!
Therefore, this place became Wuhou Temple.
"well--"
Thinking of this, Guan Lin let out a long sigh. He glanced at Lu Meng, said "Alas" and shook his head repeatedly.
Lu Meng quit now, he felt...
Guan Lin's expression, actions, demeanor... what is going on? This is looking down on him!
His dignified general in Soochow was actually looked down upon by others!
"You kid..."
Immediately Lu Meng clenched his fist.
But Guan Lin opened his mouth and said: "I heard that when Wu Hou shot a tiger, General Lu built a city at the place where the tiger died. It was called 'Lü City'? Is this possible?"
As soon as these words came out, Lu Meng was startled, as if a nerve in his heart was suddenly touched, and he asked quickly.
"How do you know?"
"You are interested in building a city? I know you are not interested in it?" Guan Lin spread his hands, and then said earnestly: "From now on, General Lu will regard Lu City as his hometown... bring over the ancestral hall, ancestral tombs, etc..."
These words have profound meaning.
Lu Meng was immediately stunned.
It's not that he was surprised that Guan Lin asked him to move his tomb, but... the fact that he built "Lü City" was secretly arranged by Sun Quan, and he built it in secret... and the purpose of building this city was simply to facilitate the Marquis of Wu.
Sun Quan went to shoot the big tiger...
But here comes the problem!
——"This boy? How do you know?"
——"Is it possible... that he had eyes in Soochow?"
——"But about the construction of Lucheng...except for Wu Hou, only Lu Xun and Lu Boyan know about it...could it be...that Lu Boyan leaked it? Lu Boyan...he...he is this guy's eyes?"
Lu Meng suddenly had a lot of thoughts.
Indeed, he, Sun Quan, and Lu Xun were the only three people who knew about the construction of "Lucheng".
He didn't say...how could Wu Hou say it?
Then...only Lu Xun is left.
Considering the complex relationship of cooperation and opposition between the "Liuyu Faction" and the "Local Clan" in the Jiangdong faction... Lu Meng could not help but think too much...
But Guan Lin's original intention is actually very pure.
Your stone statue is not popular in your hometown, so why bother to humiliate yourself?
Thinking further, Guan Lin thought that as the situation develops, Lu Meng will probably have to stab him in the back... He must be careful, but Lu Meng's reputation will get bad sooner or later.
It was a warm reminder...
The crime is not as bad as the ancestral graves, and the crime is not as bad as the family members!
Lucheng was built by Lü Meng himself, so your descendants will be fine just guarding this one-third of the acre...
Lest the more than 30,000 Guandi temples around the world scare you Lu family to death!
And this Lucheng is the only place in the world for later generations where imperial temples are not allowed within a radius of fifty miles.
It is recorded in the Qing Dynasty's "Zi Buyu" that there are no temples within fifty miles of Lucheng. Once a Guan temple is built, there will be the sound of fighting and wrestling every night. Use drums as a warning and do not build a Guan temple.
The book also said that a fortune teller came from out of town and stayed overnight in Lu Meng's temple.
As a result, there was a thunderstorm at night, and the roof tiles were flying everywhere. The locals were very surprised. Finally, they discovered that this out-of-town fortune teller had a piece of cloth draped over his shoulders with a portrait of Guan Yu embroidered on it!
It can also be seen from this that when Lu Meng and Guan Yu were alive, they were obsessed with each other and had a deep hatred. Even if they died... they would not rest underground and there would be no peace!
This is Guan Lin's plan, but who knows...
His casual "well-intentioned" reminder was unintentional on the part of the speaker, but intentional on the part of the listener.
These words became Lu Xun's disloyalty in Lu Meng's mind!
——"Lücheng was built secretly by my subordinates, and it is still under construction. It is impossible to leak it. As expected, these powerful Soochow families are all a bunch of underfed wolves... accustomed to adapting to the wind."
——"I said, how did Lu Xun lose his halberd in the sand? Humph, that's how it is. I don't know how much information about Soochow the Lu family sold to Jingzhou."
For a moment, Lu Meng's eyes narrowed, looking fierce.
Guan Lin trembled subconsciously...
I muttered in my heart, why is this person like this, changing his face whenever he says he wants to?
Immediately stay three steps away from him.
Don't play with him anymore.
——"I was worried that you would still fight with me after my father died, so I am so idle that I remind you..."
——"Count the ball, do you like to smash the stone statue or not? How do you like it?"
Thoughts on this…
Guan Lin pinched his waist and looked like "a dog bit Lu Dongbin, but it doesn't know a good heart."
Lu Meng squinted his eyes and muttered in his mind about the leak of news about the construction of Lu City...
at this time.
"Fourth Young Master Guan——"
Zhuge Jin's voice came from the awning boat. Guan Lin turned to look at him. Zhuge Jin said: "The Governor has invited... Fourth Young Master Guan."
"Invite me to get on the boat?" Guan Lin was startled and asked: "He can't get off the boat? Why bother?"
After saying this, Zhuge Jin quickly walked to Guan Lin's side. He lowered his voice and said: "The Governor is asking about the strategy of 'breaking Hefei'. I have just persuaded him. The Governor said that if the Fourth Young Master cannot tell him,
Even if he dies on the Xiangjiang River, he will never set foot on Changsha land!"
Well…
These words immediately made Guan Lin startled.
Dare you beg me to save you, right?
His eyes narrowed slightly...
First he glanced at Lu Meng, then at the awning boat... He murmured in his heart.
——"Why are these Soochow people so interesting? I, Guan Lin, owe you something?"
According to Guan Lin's temperament in the past, he would not be willing to save him no matter what you wanted, but considering that this is Lu Su...
Guan Lin sighed "Alas" and spread his hands.
——"That's all, that's all...the auxiliary car is dependent on each other, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, harmony is the most precious, harmony is the most precious!"
With this in mind, Guan Lin stepped onto the boat.
When he walked to the awning, his tone was respectful: "I have admired Lu Zi for a long time and respected my senior's name. This junior is being polite."
When his words came out, Lu Su's hoarse voice responded, "Ahem...yes...it's your name that I have long admired, Fourth Young Master Guan! It's my turn, Lu Su, to be polite!"
Guan Lin respectfully…
Who would have thought that Lu Su was more humble than him? Guan Lin was shocked.
Over here, Guan Lin entered the awning.
Over there, after Zhuge Jin came ashore, Lu Meng walked to his side and said calmly: "I finally know why the Hefei gambling game happened, why Jingzhou was handed over, and why the Lu family army was defeated in Changsha again!"
Zhuge Jin was shocked by this sudden sentence.
Lu Meng's words continued.
"——We have Guan Yu's eyes in Soochow! Moreover, this eye has a valuable status and great power, and he has many soldiers and horses in his hands!"
Following Lu Meng's words, Zhuge Jin's eyes gradually widened, revealing a bit of disbelief.
"who is it?"
"I can't tell you until we find out!" Lu Meng showed his unique caution. "You must be careful during this period. If you have anything, report it directly to Marquis Wu. Don't lie to others!"
This is...
A very solemn reminder.
And Jiaozhou, which is five hundred miles away...
"Ah sneeze——"
Lu Xun, who was directing the siege, suddenly sneezed...
The deputy general of Lu Jiajun said quickly: "It's windy here, general, you might as well go to the tent and wait... The Jiaozhou soldiers in Cangwu County can't hold it anymore!"
"Ahem..."
Lu Xun coughed again and waved his hand to indicate to the deputy general that he should say nothing.
He looked at the Jiaozhou city that was about to be conquered and murmured in his heart.
——"Why do I suddenly feel a cold feeling on my back, as if someone... stabbed me in the back!"
——"Who would stab me in the back, Lu Xun?"
…
…
Yizhou, Fuling County.
This city and county, known as "mustard" in later generations, is facing a new round of tests at this moment.
Dark clouds over the city...
Under Xu Huang's order, Cao Jun was launching attacks on the city again and again.
The bloody setting sun covered the battlefield... Fuling County was already in quite a difficult situation.
Because most of the defenders went home for the holidays, less than a thousand people were temporarily raised. The most important thing is... because Liu Huangshu ordered that the protection be removed in advance, and the lack of manpower caused a large number of arrows, broken wood, and stones to be moved back.
arsenal.
The enemy came in such a hurry that they had no time to move the ordnance...
With no other choice, the few defenders could only tear down everything they saw, including the tower doors and cooking utensils, as long as they were hard, and smash them down!
Today, Fuling's guarding general is the surrendered general Yan Yan...
When Zhuge Liang entered Shu, he ordered Zhang Fei to conquer Jiangzhou. Yan Yan was defeated and captured, but Youyou shouted, "There are only beheaded generals in our state, but no generals who have surrendered!"
Zhang Fei admired Yan Yan's courage and defended Yan Yan...
Now, Yan Yan is highly regarded by Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang and is stationed in Fuling!
At this moment, he was standing on the tower, looking at the increasingly unfavorable battle situation. The sweat on his forehead continued to gather. He kept shouting - "Hold on, hold on!"
Xu Huang, the commander of the attacking party below the city tower, was holding a broadsword. He stared at the city gate of Fuling County.
The deputy general next to him sighed with emotion: "The enemy army can no longer resist it. It is expected that this city gate will be captured in less than an hour..."
These words reached Xu Huang's ears.
The corners of Xu Huang's mouth raised and he smiled: "It doesn't take more than an hour, the Shu army can no longer resist it!"
really…
Many Cao soldiers have already climbed up the tower along the ladder.
"ah--"
Accompanied by roars, the pioneer warriors of Cao's army climbed onto the city tower one by one, and fought with the Shu army on the narrow corridor of the city wall.
Every time someone fell down, someone else swooped up. They quickly formed a battle formation and occupied a space, allowing more warriors to climb onto the tower first.
The group of people who ascended first were Xu Huang's personal soldiers... You should know that Xu Huang was also from Shanxi. Like Zhang Liao, he was a fellow countryman of Guan Yu!
His soldiers are also extremely brave.
For a time, countless spears, daggers, and sticks were dancing wildly on the tower...
——The bloody setting sun!
"The city is about to be broken -" Xu Huang said calmly, about to raise the command flag and let the Chinese army launch the final sprint.
Never thought that it would be at this moment.
A letter arrived quickly.
Quickly, a strong man with big shoulders and round waist passed all the sergeants and walked in front of Xu Huang.
He shouted: "Gongming...Gongming..."
It's Xu Chu.
"General Xu?" Xu Huang thought that Jiangzhou, the seat of Bazhong, had been destroyed. The prime minister sent Xu Chu to see the battle here. He quickly said: "General Xu, please wait half an hour longer, which will be enough to capture Fuling."
!”
Xu Huang said this with his back straight and full of aura.
Who would have thought that Xu Chu's words would cause his aura to plummet to the bottom.
"Stop attacking, the Prime Minister has ordered...withdraw the troops!"
"Withdraw? Withdraw the troops?" Xu Huang seemed not to understand. He quickly pointed at Fuling City, "Why withdraw the troops? In less than half an hour... we will capture it!"
"How do I know why the troops were withdrawn? That's what the prime minister ordered..." Xu Chu handed the withdrawal order flag directly to Xu Huang's hand.
this…
Xu Huang clenched his hands into fists and couldn't help but fell into great hesitation and confusion.
Xu Chu's words continued, "The Prime Minister's order was quite firm. General Zhang He has already withdrawn, and Jiangzhou... The Prime Minister has given up. Even if Gongming takes down Fuling, it will be of no use. I advise Gongming not to do it."
Disobey the Prime Minister’s military orders!”
Since Cao Cao sent Xu Chu here, Xu Huang knew... I am afraid that this city cannot be fought again.
But...but he just couldn't figure it out. How could such a good person just...withdraw his troops?
"Alas... alas..."
With a long sigh, Xu Huang waved his hand: "Send the order, call for gold and withdraw the troops!"
The soldier who sent the message didn't seem to understand, and looked at Xu Huang with a blank expression.
Xu Huang's voice became colder, "Didn't you hear what I said, General?"
"——Ming Jin withdraws his troops!"
It should be noted that during siege warfare.
The drum is made of cowhide and has a rich sound, so... the drum is often beaten when attacking to provide motivation.
Mingjin is a gong, the sound of the gong is crisp, penetrating and spreads far.
When fighting on the battlefield, soldiers can hear clearly, making it easier to command.
For a time, the sound of gongs "——钲钲钲" resounded in Cao's army.
Following this sound, Cao's troops attacking the city quickly evacuated, just like the waves receding, retreating as quickly as they came. However, the soldiers who had first climbed onto the tower fell silent one by one.
them…
Can they still withdraw?
Sure enough, as the ladder was unloaded, the soldiers who ascended the city tower had no support. Their position was quickly defeated, and their front line was compressed. Finally... this front line opened a gap, and then expanded infinitely... collapsed!
When the last advance soldier was thrown off the city wall, countless people on the city tower cheered.
Especially Yan Yan, he seems like a dream...
He is especially incredible.
"——Defended? Actually... actually defended?"
Looking at Xu Huang below the city, he looked helpless and confused. While he watched the soldiers retreat, he also watched helplessly as the guards on the tower were left behind.
The dust and smoke stirred up made Xu Huang miserable.
——"I have never fought such a ridiculous battle in my life!"
When these words were recited, Xu Huang took the lead, with an angry expression on his face.
"——I'm so angry that I'm so angry! I'm so angry with you!"
"I will personally ask Prime Minister Cao why he withdrew his troops?"
After all, Xu Huang couldn't hold it in any longer at this moment.
He has never had such a moment, feeling so dissatisfied with his lord Cao Cao!
--"absurd!"
——"Prime Minister Cao is simply ridiculous!"
Who would have thought.
In such a battle, an angry, accumulated, but powerful seed has been quietly planted!
…
…
Changsha County...on the banks of the Laodao River, next to Luohan Village.
A awning boat was rocking gently against the microwaves on the river.
But I heard a "bang" inside the awning...
It was Lu Su who rang the wupeng table.
Even though he was very weak, even though he was the governor of Soochow, at this moment... Lu Su was extremely excited.
As for the reason, there is no other reason...
Those words from Guan Lin's mouth, the methods and possibilities of "breaking Hefei", made the governor of Soochow extremely shocked and surprised!
At this moment, his trembling, trembling, hoarse voice came out from the awning boat.
"You mean... that Zhang Wenyuan is not in Hefei City?"
Following Lu Su's voice, Guan Lin's answer was:
"I mean, there is only one chance for Soochow to take Hefei. I, Guan Lin, are here to tell you. Hefei is right there, and the nightmare is right there. You can break it as much as you like, and take it as much as you like!"
