Chapter 547 Along the Yangtze River, the wind and clouds move, and the dark tide is rolling
It was late at night, but the Chinese army's tent in Shanyue Stronghold was brightly lit, and subtle sounds could be faintly heard.
"So, what he said is true!"
"The Lu Family Army is the Long Xiao Camp? The Long Xiao Camp is also the Lu Family Army!"
The speaker was Pan Lin, the leader of Shanyue, "Zong Commander". At this moment, his pupils were wide open as he looked at the rugged man in front of him in disbelief.
This man is Yan Baihu’s son—Yan Long!
He was also one of the troops recruited by Lu Xun in the past who had a grudge against the little overlord Sun Bofu.
You know, Yan Baihu and Shan Yue have an extremely close relationship.
He even once occupied the mountain and became the king, calling himself "Mountain Yue!"
His son, of course... Pan Lin is no stranger!
This time, Lu Xun asked him to secretly go up the mountain at night to prove to the mountain leaders that what he said was true.
"Pan Zongshuai, don't you still believe my nephew's words?" Yan Long said truthfully: "My father's enemy, the overlord Sun Bofu, was the one we and Lu Xun conspired to assassinate!"
"And Lu Xun's grandfather died at the hands of the Sun family, and he and the Sun family are also feuding. As for...the world-famous White Horse Marquis Lu Ziyu, his surname is also Lu, and his mother is the legitimate daughter of the Lu family... With a prominent position, it is natural that this Long Xiao
The camp is not the Lu Family Army, the Lu Family Army is naturally also the Long Xiao Camp!"
It's hard for Yan Long, a big boss, to explain the relationship between them so clearly.
And Pan Lin's expression changed from initial shock, to shock in the middle, to horror when the dust settled at the end, as if he was in a dream.
Oh my gosh!
He is just a commander of the Shanyue Sect. How can he be so virtuous? How lucky he is? He actually has the opportunity to join the Longxiao Camp! He actually has the opportunity to become one of the warriors under White Horse Lord Lu Ziyu!
You know, Long Xiaoying is more than just a powerful force in the Thirteen States of Han Dynasty!
Are they orthodox and righteous teachers under the imperial court?
No one is born to be a thief!
"This...this..."
Pan Lin's tone became stilted, as if he was a little excited, so excited that he was nervous!
"Pan Zongshuai, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. With these brave soldiers from Shanyue, plus our tribes from declining clans, such a Lu family army can stir up the six counties and seventy-two counties in Jiangdong!"
"I heard that Longxiao Camp in the north defeated Wuhuan and made great achievements. People in the world gave a thumbs up when they mentioned Longxiao Camp, saying that all the places Longxiao Camp's iron cavalry had trampled were Han! We... we are one of them
Member, how can I be honored!"
Well…
That’s it!
The atmosphere has been set up here!
Pan Lin could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart.
"I told you earlier, I knew earlier... The Lu Family Army is the Longxiao Camp, and the Longxiao Camp is the Lu Family Army. Why do we have to hold on for so long? Why do we have to be sad and empty in the belly! Isn't this a flood that has washed away the Dragon King Temple!"
Speaking of which…
"Quick..." Pan Lin immediately ordered. "Quick... please call General Lu!"
"No...lead the way, I will personally go and ask General Lu!"
"We're going over the mountains, it's falling! It's falling! Haha...hahahaha!"
Rare…
Shanyue surrendered so impassionedly and excitedly!
That night.
One after another, urgent messages are sent to the nearby mountains through the unique method of Shanyue people!
Overnight, 60,000 soldiers crossed the mountain, and more than 200,000 soldiers... all surrendered!
From now on, they are the Lu Family Army on the surface, but secretly...only their commander-in-chief knows that they are the Longxiao Camp! The undefeated army that shocked the Thirteen Prefectures of the Han Dynasty - the Longxiao Camp!
…
…
The harp and harp harmoniously played the soft and elegant movement of Jiangnan rhythm!
But... the shores of the Yangtze River at this moment are completely opposite to the elegance of the music. The river wind still carries the smell of blood, and the river surface is also soaked in blood, creating a solemn and solemn scene!
On a high platform next to the river, a young man with purple beard and blue eyes was beating a corpse over and over again.
——Whip the corpse!
It's hard to imagine how much hatred there is to hit a dead person with a whip over and over again.
This young man with purple beard and blue eyes is Sun Quan, the second son of Jiangdong’s Sun family!
The target of his whipping was his father-killing enemy and the Sun family’s enemy for two generations—Huang Zu!
As for…
The enmity between the Sun family and Huang Zu can be traced back to the time of the Alliance to Defeat Dong!
At that time, Sun Jian once led a lone army into Luoyang. However, the Kwantung princes had different goals and were not well organized, so the result was of little significance.
Sun Jian accidentally found a jade seal passed down from the country in a dry well in Changle Palace.
At this point, the common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade!
Afterwards... what we loved to see was that in the fight with Liu Biao of Jingzhou, Sun Jian was shot dead by Liu Biao's general Huang Zu, and his elite men were absorbed by Yuan Shu!
Sun Jian's life came to an end...
And Sun's journey has just begun.
In the name of revenge, Sun Ce gave the jade seal to Yuan Shu and begged Yuan Shu with tears to return him to his old army.
Although Yuan Shu's son was soft, his methods were not soft. He only gave back more than a thousand of Sun Ce's people, and also obstructed Sun Ce's development overtly and covertly.
Among them, there is a past event closely related to the Jiangdong Lu family.
At the beginning of the first year of Xingping, Yuan Shu sent Sun Ce to attack Lujiang, and even promised to Sun Ce that as long as he captured Lujiang, he would be appointed as the prefect of Lujiang. However, after Lujiang was captured, Yuan Shu quickly changed his mind, and Lujiang was also replaced by a close confidant.
At that time…
The Lujiang prefect who was defeated by Sun Ce was the patriarch of the Lu family, one of the four major families in Wu County - Lu Kang!
As for the Lu family of Wu County, ever since Lu Hong became an official of Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, there have been numerous celebrities and a large family!
But because of Sun Ce's attack, most of the clan members died!
If Lu Kang hadn't sent Lu Xun and Lu Ji back to Wu County, I'm afraid that now... there would be no Lu family in Jiangdong! Lu Yu would have no maternal family!
Tracing the origin…
All of this is the development and continuation of the hatred between the Sun family and Huang Zu!
After that, Sun Ce left Jiangdong to build a fortune. Later, Sun Ce defeated Huang Zu several times, captured his wife, sons and 6,000 ships, and killed tens of thousands of his soldiers.
only…
Huang Zu, the culprit, is still safe and sound.
That’s this month…
With the help of Zhou Yu, Sun Quan used a death squad to break into the city despite rain of arrows and stones, and killed Huang Zu, the enemy of two generations, and sacrificed him!
Although the army still failed to break through Jiangxia.
However, they brought Huang Zu's body back. When Sun Quan saw his dead enemy, he was naturally overcome with emotion, so he built a high platform by the river and whipped Huang Zu's corpse to vent his anger!
"call…"
"call!"
Sun Quan kept breathing heavily.
Finally, he was tired and could no longer swing. The blood on the headless corpse of Huang Zu seemed to have solidified long ago.
"Crack!"
The whip fell to the ground, and Sun Quan knelt down facing the Yangtze River.
"Brother...I have finally avenged my father's revenge!"
Boom…
Sun Quan's head hit the wooden floor, and the sound of "dong dong" merged with the waves of the river, but it only added to the loneliness in Sun Quan's heart.
He has done what he has to do!
Then... a new problem arises, and he next...
Living in Jiangdong, with such an embarrassing status? What else can he continue to do?
…
At night, inside the camp, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu walked into it together.
Sun Quan took off the cloak he had worn all day, shook it out, and threw it on the table. Zhou Yu remained motionless, watching him finish all this.
"I've been whipping this thief Huang Zu for so long that his arms are weak!"
Sun Quan sighed with emotion...
Zhou Yu opened his mouth and said, "Has all the energy in Zhongmou's heart been exhausted?"
this…
Sun Quan looked up at Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu's expression became even more serious. "I received a piece of good news and a piece of bad news today. Which one do you want Zhongmou to hear first?"
"Good news!" Sun Quan replied...
But there was a little more curiosity in my heart.
"The good news is that the battle report has arrived...the troubles of Yamagotsu that plagued Jiangdong have been eliminated!"
Hmm…
Sun Quan was stunned, and then asked quickly: "What about the bad news?"
Zhou Yu shook his head slightly: "Lu Xun went alone to persuade him to surrender, but he actually took 60,000 mountain Vietnamese soldiers into his own without spending a single soldier!"
this…
Sun Quan's eyebrows frowned subconsciously.
Although it is said that the growth of the Lu Family Army means the strength of Jiangdong, but... in fact, the Sun Family of Jiangdong is divided into two factions!
Huaisi Liuyu Sect and Jiangdong Native Clan Sect…
The only things Sun Quan could rely on were the Huaisi Liuyu faction...and the 50,000 soldiers and horses in the hands of his father's old army...
Can…
Today, the situation is completely different.
Lu Xun took 60,000 Shanyue soldiers as his own, and the Shanyue people were good at forest warfare and water warfare. Their fighting ability was extremely brave, and they may not be inferior to his father's old troops!
In terms of the number of soldiers and horses, Sun Quan was at a disadvantage!
And this... means that it is almost impossible for him, Sun Quan, to counterattack and become the lord of Jiangdong!
And the most terrifying thing is not just these...
From now on, the Jiangdong gentry faction will far surpass him in all aspects such as soldiers, armor, money, food, and supplies. Sun Quan and Zhou Yu have lost a lot of their say in Jiangdong.
"Boom!"
Sun Quan, who was silent for a moment, suddenly waved his hand and punched the table.
Ink was flying all over the table.
"Almost, only a little bit!"
He sighed repeatedly...
Originally, he had made a great contribution by avenging his father. This contribution was enough to help him gain support from more people and gain more say.
But...compared with the pacification of Shanyue and the subjugation of Shanyue...the weight of such "father's hatred" seems a bit light.
After all... Jiangxia City was not captured by Sun Quan and Zhou Yu.
"Zhongmou, I have a document here to report to Sun Yi. Zhongmou might as well take a look at it!"
While talking, Zhou Yu handed a bamboo slip to Sun Quan...
Sun Quan took the bamboo slips and slowly unfolded them, but it didn't matter if he didn't look at them. When he looked at them, his eyes widened in vain, looking particularly incredible!
"The left commander of Jiangdong's troops and horses? Gong Jin wants Lu Xun to be the commander-in-chief of Jiangdong's troops and horses?"
"That's right!" In contrast to Sun Quan's nervousness, Zhou Yu's expression was very calm. "It's up to you to submit a letter and let Lu Xun be the governor!"
"Gong Jin? This...why is this?"
"Show weakness!" Zhou Yu explained: "The situation is different now, so we can only show weakness, not to mention...Cao Cao defeated Wuhuan, and his strategic focus in the future can only be to go south. Let me ask Zhongmou? Can we alone?
Can you withstand Cao Cao? Can you withstand Long Xiaoying? Can you rival that Yinlin?"
Well…
Zhou Yu's words made Sun Quan speechless.
Yuan Shao gathered the strength of the four states, made advisors like a cloud, and generals like a rain, but in the end they couldn't stop him. What's more, it was him, Sun Quan.
It is no exaggeration to say that this is a critical period of life and death. If Jiangdong is not monolithic at this time, then... what awaits Jiangdong will only be destruction!
When Sun Quan thought of this, Zhou Yu continued. "I think Bo Fu's spirit in heaven probably doesn't want Jiangdong to follow in the footsteps of the Yuan family in the north, where brothers fight and cause trouble to Xiao Qiang, not to mention...from the perspective of Bo Fu and the old general.
Go and see the third generation of Koto? Is it just for internal friction?"
"Zhongmou, our opponent is not only your third brother, but also Lu Xun. The more terrifying opponents are Cao Cao and Lu Yu... From this point of view, whether it is Lu Xun or Lu Jiajun... these are our comrades! A Zuo Governor
It’s worth it in exchange for Jiangdong’s stability!”
this…
Sun Quan wanted to speak, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know where to start.
What Zhou Yu said makes sense!
He...he Sun Quan has reached the point where he must admit defeat!
"Gong Jin, in your opinion, can we and Lu Xun alone be able to resist Cao Cao and Lu Yu?"
"Not enough!"
Zhou Yu answered without thinking.
"Then..." Sun Quan still wanted to ask.
But Zhou Yu was the first to say: "We still need to unite with Jingzhou..."
Jingzhou!
After saying this, Sun Quan's brows suddenly knitted together.
"How could it be Jingzhou? Huang Zu had a grudge against our Jiangdong Sun family for killing his father. Now I have killed Huang Zu, and Liu Biao is even more sworn in with us. How could he join forces with us to fight against Cao Cao?"
Sun Quan spoke very fast...it seemed that he was quite concerned about this! He had a grudge against it!
He even felt that it was absolutely impossible to unite with Liu Biao to fight against Cao Cao!
Looking back at Zhou Yu, he seemed very indifferent, as if he had already planned the next strategy and deployment in his chest countless times.
After filling in all the flaws, we finally arrived at the optimal solution!
"Jiangdong and Jingzhou unite, and it may not be Liu Jingsheng who forms the alliance!"
Finally, Zhou Yu spoke calmly. "Isn't there another royal descendant named Liu in Xinye City north of Xiangyang? I heard that he invited Zhuge Liang, the Crouching Dragon of Nanyang!"
"If Zhuge Liang deserves the title of Wolong, how could he not understand the profound meaning of it? How could he try every means to obtain this Jiangxia fleet from Liu Biao!"
"In today's world, when it comes to the strength of water warfare, apart from Zhong Mou's large ship army, the only remaining warships in Jiangxia City are, right? As long as these two ace naval forces join forces, even if it is Lu Ziyu who attacks the enemy's heart, there will be no plan left.
, he will never be able to cross the natural chasm of the Yangtze River!
What Zhou Yu said was profound.
Sun Quan was suddenly startled.
Who is the Kodong Alliance?
Not Liu Biao, but... is it Liu Bei?
this…
Zhou Gongjin’s idea is truly shocking!
And the combination of the Jiangdong tower ship and the stern warship may really create a miracle on the Yangtze River!
…
…
Jingzhou, Xinye City!
At night, at the top of Xinye City, the river breeze blew... and the infinite coolness hit me. Under several torches, the dim firelight reflected Liu Bei's frowning expression.
Beside him, Zhuge Liang was talking.
"In today's world, no princes can fight against Cao Cao and Lu Ziyu on land, and no infantry or cavalry can fight against the Longxiao Camp, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and those fine steel armors and fine steel halberds..."
Zhuge Liang's words were like a basin of cold water.
But it is the most objective analysis.
"But if we rely on the danger of the Yangtze River and use water warfare to meet the enemy, there is no chance of defeating Cao Cao!"
"The military advisor might as well explain in detail? How to fight in water? How to find good opportunities!"
Heard there was a chance.
Liu Bei regained his energy and asked quickly.
"My lord, let me ask you this: Which two legions are the strongest in today's water battle?" Zhuge Liang did not answer directly, but asked Liu Bei.
"As we all know, one of the strongest naval forces in the world today is the navy in Jiangxia, Jingzhou, commanded by Huang Zu, and the other is the navy of the Sun family under Sun Quan!"
Indeed, just like Liu Bei said...
The reason why these two fleets can be called the ceiling of water warfare is because from 199 to the present, they have fought in a total of five large-scale battles, and countless small battles.
With the support of a large amount of experience points, the combat effectiveness of these two fleets has increased dramatically...
On the other hand, in the Central Plains, where are there any water wars?
It is no exaggeration to say that both Cao Ying and Long Xiao Ying are novices in the field of water warfare!
"As my lord said, the two most powerful naval forces are currently fighting in Jiangxia. I heard that Huang Zu has been defeated by Sun Quan... But today's Jiangxia navy is leaderless!"
hiss…
Hearing this, Liu Bei had some thoughts. "The military advisor is planning to ask me to ask Liu Jingsheng for this naval force to fight against Cao Cao?"
"Yes, that's not right!" Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan gently. "Even though Cao Jun doesn't know how to fight on the water, his advantage is that he has many soldiers, generals, and well-equipped equipment. Not to mention Lu Ziyu's help, maybe... within a year, Cao Jun can train a
A huge water warfare army!"
"For this reason, my lord not only wants to capture the Jiangxia navy, but also needs to unite with the Sun family's navy in the east of Jiangdong. Using the Yangtze River as a natural chasm, it can be enough to defeat Cao Cao, or at least make our army invincible!"
call…
Liu Bei exhaled, still marveling at Kong Ming's deployment.
But...he suddenly thought of something.
"The Jiangxia navy and the Jiangdong navy have been fighting for five years. The two sides have deep grievances. How can they unite to fight against the enemy?"
Liu Bei raised the question...
"Haha..." Unexpectedly, Zhuge Liang laughed. "If it is Liu Jingsheng, it is impossible for the two sides to unite. But if it is you, my lord, both sides have common interests. It is the best choice to unite with each other to fight against Cao Cao."
Speaking of this... Zhuge Liang squinted and looked up at the sky.
"I believe that the Qilin from Jiangdong thinks the same way. Only by joining forces with Sun and Liu can we fight against Lu Ziyu and Cao Ah Man!"
"But..." Liu Bei continued: "Liu Jingsheng seems to treat me like a distinguished guest, but in fact, he is wary of me at every turn... How could he hand over Jiangxia's navy to me?"
Liu Bei's words are precisely the biggest contradiction in this strategy...
Who would have thought that Zhuge Liang would wave his feather fan lightly.
"This is not difficult!"
"Recently, I heard that Liu Qi, the eldest son of Liu Biao, is in a very difficult situation. Both the Cai family and the Kuai family... regard him as a thorn in their side, and this... is an opportunity for my lord!"
"This..." Liu Bei was about to speak.
Zhuge Liang was the first to say: "In my opinion, Liu Qi will probably come to my lord in the near future to ask for advice on how to break the situation. My lord might as well give it half a try and finally lead him to me! I have my own way to help your lord plan this Jiangxia navy."
!”
call…
As soon as these words came out, Liu Bei's eyes suddenly shone with light.
From Zhuge Liang's confident tone, Liu Bei seemed to have seen "win hope"...
For a man who has spent his whole life in failure, he is too eager to win this most critical game!
People say that those who obtain Yinlin can bring peace to the world!
But Liu Bei's vision is that he has to hold on to the dragon... to turn the tide and make a comeback!
