"Hmm! Did Lu Xun really say that?" As the coach of this Eastern Expedition, Huang Zhong asked Zhao Yun who was standing in front of him in a deep voice. On both sides, there were generals and generals who participated in this Eastern Expedition.
Counselor!
"That's right!" Zhao Yun nodded and said: "What Lu Xun means is that the Lu family and the Zhang family will serve as internal agents to help us capture Wu County! Once Wu County is captured, it will be equivalent to cutting off the connection between Sun Wu's army and Jiangdong.
Brother Ba’s navy can march straight in and blockade the Yangtze River! And we can slowly attack the counties east of the Yangtze River!"
"Tsk!" Huang Zhong frowned and said in a deep voice to everyone around him: "The Lu family and the Zhang family? Well, everyone, what do you think about this?"
"Father!" Huang Zhong's son Huang Xu was the first to come out. He clasped his fists at Huang Zhong and shouted excitedly: "Isn't this a great opportunity? With the help of the Lu family and the Zhang family, we will definitely be able to easily defeat Wu County.
Capture Jiangdong with the least loss! In this way, after capturing all of Jiangdong, we can take advantage of the victory and go north to completely defeat Sun Jian!"
Huang Xu spoke very excitedly, but as soon as he finished speaking, Wenpin, who was beside him, immediately shook his head and said: "Xu'er! This matter is not that simple! Everyone in this Jiangdong family is cunning! What they said, we
We must not believe it so easily! Don’t forget, it was they who colluded with Sun Jian back then, so that Jiangdong, which we finally captured, was snatched away by Sun Jian! In my opinion, we should attack steadily this time and slowly push Jiangdong away.
Just eat it slowly!" After being the governor of Hanzhong for so many years, Wenpin is no longer the stupid young man he was back then. He considers things very steadily and has the air of a general!
But Liao Li, the counselor standing opposite Wenpin, said: "But wouldn't it be a pity to give up such a good opportunity? According to the intelligence sent by the Jin Yiwei earlier, what happened to the Lu family and Zhang family in these years is indeed like that.
It’s the same as what Lu Xun said! The Lu family and the Zhang family have been exploited by Sun Wu and other Jiangdong aristocratic families, and it is no longer possible to continue! In my opinion, what Lu Xun said is not a lie! Besides, this time the Lord ordered
When we attack Jiangdong, we must resolve the Jiangdong battle in the shortest possible time and prevent other princes from intervening. If we don’t take advantage of this opportunity, with Sun Wu’s strength, it may not be that easy to capture Jiangdong quickly!”
After Liao Li reminded them, everyone remembered the task Luo Yang had assigned to everyone before setting off this time, which was to capture Jiangdong in the shortest possible time. Therefore, this time Huang Zhong sent troops not to march eastward along the Yangtze River as usual, but
Advance directly from the southeastern part of the Yangtze River in order to catch the opponent by surprise! Even so, we are still a little too late in the journey. Wu County and Kuaiji County are at each other's horns, no matter which county is attacked first, which county is left
Troops will inevitably be sent for rescue. As long as the tug-of-war breaks out, the Sun and Wu armies north of the Yangtze River will also come in a steady stream to support! In this case, Luo Yang's previous instructions will definitely not be fulfilled!
Other generals also put forward their opinions one after another. Some were in favor of joining forces with the Lu family and Zhang family, while others were against it. No one on either side could convince the other. For a while, Huang Zhong was unable to make a decision. After thinking for a long time,
In the end, Huang Zhong turned his attention to Pang Tong, who was accompanying the army to fight this time, and asked: "Pang Pang! In your opinion, what should we do?"
Pang Tong touched his chin, frowned and thought for a moment, but suddenly said: "General Huang! I can't make a decision yet, but before that, I hope to meet the head of the Lu family first!"
"Uh!" Hearing Pang Tong's request, Huang Zhong was just a little stunned, but he quickly came to his senses. Although his brain could not keep up with these top counselors, Huang Zhong had also worked with Cheng Yu for so many years over the years.
He was more or less accustomed to the leaping thinking of these top counselors, and then nodded and said: "No problem! Zilong, you can take Pang Pang to meet that Lu Xun now! Let's wait here!"
"Okay!" Zhao Yun also nodded. Huang Zhong and his army had just arrived at Wu Ning City. Only Zhao Yun knew the situation in Wu Ning City best. Immediately, Zhao Yun clasped his fists at Pang Tongyi and said: "Pang Daren
, please come with me!" After saying that, he made a gesture of invitation to Pang Tong, and he led the way.
Pang Tong bowed to Huang Zhong and everyone present, and then followed Zhao Yun out of the meeting hall, and followed Zhao Yun to the inner courtyard of the county government office. Since Lu Xun made it clear that he was here to assist the Qin army, naturally Zhao Yun would not
In order to put him in prison again, a residence was arranged for Lu Xun in the inner courtyard of the county government office. Of course, Zhao Yun had already sent many people to guard Lu Xun to prevent him from playing tricks.
The two of them went straight to the outside of the wing where Lu Xun was under house arrest. Zhao Yun waved to the sergeant guarding the door and took Pang Tong directly into the wing. Pang Tong entered the wing and turned around to see what he saw in the wing.
, Lu Xun was lying on the bed, holding a scroll in his hand and reading. He was living a very comfortable life!
Seeing Zhao Yun coming, Lu Xun smiled faintly, but threw the scroll in his hand aside, stood up directly, clasped his fists at Zhao Yun and said with a smile: "General Zhao has come to see me, but has the result been achieved for Lu's proposal?"
Although he said this to Zhao Yun, Lu Xun's eyes always stayed on Pang Tong behind Zhao Yun.
Feeling Lu Xun's gaze, Pang Tong also smiled, but he stretched out his hand to stop Zhao Yun who was about to answer. He took a step forward, bowed to Lu Xun, and said: "I have long heard that the head of the Lu family, Lu Boyan, is a dragon and a phoenix among people. Today
It’s better to meet Zunyan than to be famous! I’ve met Pang Tong in Xiangyang, the head of the Lu family!”
"Oh?" Lu Xun narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Pang Pang, whom Lu has admired for a long time! What Pang Pang said before was really too praising Lu! Lu is just a nobody, how can he
Do you deserve such ridiculous praise from a great man?"
"Isn't this ridiculous praise?" Pang Tong straightened his face, stared at Lu Xun and said, "At such a young age, the head of the Lu family can become the head of the famous Lu family in Wu County! His talent must be extraordinary! Now that he is trapped in the enemy camp, the head of the Lu family is...
The fact that his face does not change and he still has the leisure to read shows that the head of the Lu family is extremely courageous! How can such a young and talented person not be worthy of being called a dragon or a phoenix among people? When Tong was in Chang'an, he once heard that there was a beautiful Zhou Lang under the command of Wu Hou.
, but today I have to meet the Lu family master, I really don’t believe that Mei Zhoulang can have the demeanor of the Lu family master!”
After Pang Tong entered the room, he didn't even say anything serious. He just praised Lu Xun mindlessly. Zhao Yun didn't know why Pang Tong came here to see Lu Xun. However, Zhao Yun acted prudently, although he didn't understand Pang Tong.
Although Lu Xun had no intention of interfering with Pang Tong's actions, he just stepped aside silently. Lu Xun heard Pang Tong's compliments, but he was not fooled by the flattery. He simply echoed a few words from behind.
Sentence, no longer humble.
After just a few words of praise, Pang Tong saw the change in Lu Xun's expression, and then smiled and said: "Master Lu, I heard from General Zhao this time that it seems that the Lu family and the Zhang family want to support our army in retaking Jiangdong.
I wonder if this is really the case?"
"That's right!" Lu Xun didn't think about it at all, and immediately replied: "Sun Jian is cruel and cruel! Since he has been in charge of Jiangdong for more than ten years, he has made the people of Jiangdong complain! We all hope that the Qin army can eliminate Sun Wu and regain control.
Koto!"
"Oh?" Hearing Lu Xun's words, Pang Tong responded, but he looked at Lu Xun with a smile. The light in his eyes changed from time to time, as if he wanted to see what was going on in Lu Xun's mind. Then Pang Tong smiled again: "
Master of the Lu family, please forgive me for being blunt! At that time, Jiangdong was under the control of our lord, the general. It was the Lu family, the Zhang family and other Jiangdong families who secretly colluded with Sun Jian to make Jiangdong fall into Sun Jian's hands! But now Lu family
The head of the family said that he wanted to help my master regain control of Jiangdong? This, haha, is indeed a bit hard to believe!"
In response to Pang Tong's question, Lu Xun seemed to have been prepared for it and was not surprised at all. He smiled and said: "I also know that it is very difficult to convince your army of our sincerity! After all, what happened back then,
The fault lies with me! We have regretted our mistakes all these years! So in order to make your army believe in our sincerity, as the head of the Lu family, I will personally come to discuss with your army! Please also trust your army, our Lu family and Zhang
Family determination!”
"Well..." Pang Tong was noncommittal and walked back and forth in the room several times with his hands behind his back, seemingly admiring the layout of the room. However, neither Lu Xun nor Zhao Yun knew what Pang Tong wanted to do.
Silent, Pang Tong suddenly turned around, looked at Lu Xun, and said, "Master Lu! If our army retakes Jiangdong with the support of the Lu family and the Zhang family, I don't know how the Lu family and the Zhang family will deal with themselves in the future.
?”
As soon as Pang Tong said these words, Lu Xun, who had always maintained a smiling attitude before, changed his face for the first time. His brows were raised high, and the smile gradually disappeared from his face. The most obvious thing was his eyes.
Suddenly a cold light flashed!
Sensing the cold light in Lu Xun's eyes, Zhao Yun, who had been standing by, immediately strode forward and protected Pang Tong directly. Although Lu Xun looked gentle and weak, from previous observations, Zhao Yun knew that Lu Xun was definitely a trained person.
He has excellent martial arts skills! But Pang Tong is an out-and-out scholar with no strength. If Lu Xun wants to harm Pang Tong, Pang Tong will not be able to withstand Lu Xun’s attack! The reason why Huang Zhong asked Zhao Yun to bring Pang Tong just now
They went to Lu Xun, firstly because Zhao Yun knew the way, and the most important point was that he hoped that Zhao Yun could protect Pang Tong from any accidents! Pang Tong had been under Luo Yang's tent for so many years, and both Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun knew that Pang Tong was a resourceful man.
