Sun Quan hurriedly walked into the Lu Mansion. Before Sun Shucheng who was following him could get out of the car, Sun Quan had already walked to the backyard and collided head-on with Lu Xun who rushed out to greet him after hearing the news.
Lu Xun crossed his arms and was about to bow, when Sun Quan grabbed his arm and strode towards the hall.
"Bo Yan, come here!"
Lu Xun looked at Sun Quan in surprise, and then at Sun Shucheng who ran in. He didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse. Sun Quan ignored him, and dragged him all the way through the hall and into Lu Xun's study in the backyard. He opened the door and saw the winter room.
The sun shone into the study, shining on the desk, illuminating the map. The cool wind poured into the room, blowing away the strong smell of lamp oil in the room.
Sun Quan let go of Lu Xun's arm, walked slowly to the case, bent down, and looked down at the map. Three shocking red circles were marked with cinnabar on the map, namely Youyang, Chenyang and Wuyang.
Lu Xun held his breath, and Sun Shucheng trotted over. Seeing this scene, he also changed his expression in shock. Lu Xun was placed under house arrest in the palace and deprived of his military power, but he was still studying the war situation and the nature of this matter.
It all depends on what Sun Quan will think.
Sun Quan stared at the map for a long time, then raised his head and asked: "The Lord must not raise an army out of anger, and a general must not attack out of anger. Boyan, this time, I was wrong."
Lu Xun and Sun Shucheng seemed to hear a thud in their hearts. Their hearts in their throats finally fell back to where they were before. The hands they had clasped together slowly relaxed a little.
"Bo Yan, is there any chance of recovery?"
Lu Xun let go of Sun Shucheng's hand, walked quickly to the case, rolled up his sleeves with one hand, pointed to the red circle on the map with the other, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, with the ability of Bu Zhi and others, even if they are in danger, they will not
They will be completely defeated. If there is no chance of victory, they will not do it reluctantly. Each of them has more than ten thousand soldiers. Even if Wei Ba wants to make a sneak attack, he will not be able to do it.
The move was successful. According to the plan of the officials, Wei Ba's goal should be these three places. The baggage of the three armies are stored here. If they are removed, the three armies will collapse without a fight. They will retreat thousands of miles away, even if there is no strong enemy, and there will be losses.
It should not be underestimated. Therefore, I believe that we should immediately order to assemble the remaining soldiers from Lingling, Wuling and Jianping counties to ensure that the supplies in the three places are safe."
Sun Quan tugged at his beard, squinted his eyes, and stared at the map, his forehead covered with beads of sweat.
He knew that he had made a mistake again this time. He remembered his brother's words before his death: "Use the people of Jiangdong to decide between the two formations, and compete with the world. You are not as good as me." Yes, although several times
Whether it was life or death, he made the right choice and got to where he is today step by step.
But he himself rarely won direct victories on the battlefield. His victories were all based on the success of others. Only with Zhou Yu could he win at Chibi; only with Lu Meng could he capture Jingzhou; only with Lu Xun could he win in Yiling
Liu Bei was defeated, but he rarely achieved victory in battle.
This time, he also made a major mistake. In a fit of rage, he sent the three armies into danger. The consequences of this mistake were so serious that he had to temporarily put aside his anger towards Lu Xun and arrive in person.
Lu Xun came to ask for advice.
Because he knew that if anyone could save him and Jingzhou, it would be Lu Xun.
Sun Quan shuddered when he thought of the consequences of the defeat of the three armies.
"Bo Yan, what are the chances?"
Lu Xun, who was talking eloquently, suddenly stopped, and he pondered for a moment: "I can't be sure, the battlefield is constantly changing. If Wei Ba is in San Valley, the victory or defeat will be between five and five, just like in Jinping Mountain..." Lu Xun
He closed his mouth and said no more.
"Why is this happening?" Sun Quan didn't understand very much. "If Wei Ba was in Jinping Mountain, wouldn't it be less harmful? Lu Dai has 18,000 people, can't he be trapped?"
Lu Xun smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, ten or twenty thousand people placed in the mountains are like a drop in the bucket. Moreover, Wei Ba is good at using strange things. Although his troops are not many, they are elite men. They can climb over mountains and ridges as if they were walking on flat ground. Lu Xun
Dai can't trap him at all. The reason why he is in Jinping Mountain is because he wants to stay in Jinping Mountain, and he is not trapped by Lu Dai."
Sun Quan frowned slightly and did not continue the discussion. He said bluntly to Lu Xun: "Bo Yan, you go to Chenyang. Set off immediately to get them all out, and then we can make a long-term plan."
"Here." Lu Xun bowed and accepted the order.
Sun Quan sighed and turned around to leave. Lu Xun caught up and stopped in front of Sun Quan. "Your Majesty, if you want to solve the problem of Wuling, the battlefield is just the end. Wei Ba is just a pawn in Zhuge Liang's hands. If you want to calm down the trouble,
, Zhuge Liang still needs to come forward to recall Wei Ba to ensure that everything is safe."
Sun Quan smiled bitterly and said: "Will Zhuge Liang recall him now? I have already lost the opportunity, so I am not afraid to ask for help, but I am worried that he will not spit out the Wu Ling he swallowed."
Lu Xun shook his head: "Your Majesty, he will. Firstly, his enemy is not us, at least not for the time being. Secondly, Wei Yan is in Guanzhong, and he will not let Wei Ba become an important general again, and father and son are both good at military power."
Sun Quan frowned and looked at Lu Xun quietly. Lu Xun hesitated for a moment, then bowed deeply and begged: "Your Majesty, please let Zhang Wen go to Chengdu again."
Sun Quan's green eyes narrowed to a slit, and his eyes were like daggers, scanning Lu Xun's face back and forth. After a long time, he smiled slightly: "Okay!"
…
Outside Wuyang City, there is a dense bamboo forest.
Wei Ba was leaning on a big rock, chewing dry food, and observing Wuyang City in the distance.
Wuyang City is on the north bank of Yuanshui River, built against the mountains. Although the city is not big, the inner and outer walls are tall and thick. The city is covered with flags, and rows of soldiers stand on the city walls with weapons in hand, watching the city vigilantly.
Ships and people coming and going.
Wuyang is Lu Dai's logistics supply base. Most of the food and ordnance transported from Yanshan are placed here. It is expected to be heavily guarded. Judging from the observed situation, if Wei Ba wants to attack by force, not to mention that Wei Ba only has
More than 200 people, even 2,000 people may not have a chance. Moreover, this place is only fifty miles away from Jinping Mountain. In one day, Lu Dai's army can arrive to support.
There was a soft rustle in the bamboo forest, and the husband walked over quickly, followed by a dark and thin young man.
"Sir, this is my old subordinate, named Wu An. He is now a commander in Wuyang City and is responsible for the security of the north gate." The prime minister briefly introduced. Wei Ba smiled: "Wu An? What a good name.
.”
Wu An looked at his husband nervously, and he patted him on the back of the head and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? The general is joking with you."
Wu An smiled awkwardly, stepped forward to salute Wei Ba, licked his thick lips, stretched his neck, and was about to speak. Wei Ba handed over the kettle and said with a smile: "Take a drink before talking, don't be nervous."
Wu An looked at the kettle in surprise. This was what Wei Ba had just drank. Wei Ba invited him to drink. Seeing his hesitation, the husband pushed him: "Drink, God will reward you. Are you still afraid that God will do something to you?"
Are you disadvantaged? Let me tell you, although your skills are good, in front of a divine general, as long as he glares at you, you will not survive."
Wu An trembled, and quickly took the kettle, took a big sip, wiped the mouth of the pot with his sleeves, and handed it back to Wei Ba with both hands.
"General God, there are a total of two thousand people in the city, half of whom are from our tribe, guarding the outer city, and the remaining one thousand Wu people - actually most of them are Jiaozhou people - guarding the inner city. All food and weapons are there
Inner city, I can take you into the outer city, but I can't bring you into the inner city. They don't believe us and won't let us enter the inner city."
Wei Ba nodded: "What is the name of Wu Jun's general?"
"My name is Tang Zi. He is Lu Dai's confidant. He has very good martial arts skills."
"I know him." The husband said fiercely: "This bitch is very vicious and can be cruel. Thanks to him, I still have injuries on my body."
Wei Ba also remembered that this man was the one who exchanged prisoners with Zhao Tong in Wuyang. If Sun Dahu hadn't been angry, he might have had a fight with Zhao Tong. Lu Dai left him here to show his support for Wuyang.
Pay attention to.
"Does he have any hobbies?" Wei Ba asked calmly.
"In addition to killing people, he also likes drinking. However, General Lu issued an order that he is not allowed to drink while guarding Wuyang."
"Then has he drunk?"
"He rarely comes out of the inner city and we can't see him."
Wei Ba asked in detail about the situation in Wuyang City, and Wu An answered one by one. About half an hour later, Wu An quietly left. Wei Ba called his husband, Wang Shuang, and Guan Feng over, and drew a picture on the ground.
The sketch briefly describes the situation in Wuyang City.
"Wuyang City is heavily guarded. The guard general Tang Zi is a very experienced general. He didn't give us many chances." Wei Ba dropped the branch in his hand and clapped his hands: "Our only chance is the water gate. There is a water gate in Wuyang City.
, leads directly to the Yuanshui River. The water gate is blocked by an iron gate and guarded by soldiers. A group of people changes every hour. Wu An can lead us into the outer city, but the iron gate in the inner city can only be broken by ourselves."
Wei Ba turned his attention to Dunwu: "I'll leave this matter to you. Open the iron gate and enter the inner city. Then open the inner city gate and lead us into the city."
"Here." Dunwu responded calmly.
Wei Ba turned his attention to Guan Feng: "Beyond entering the city, killing people is second, and setting fires is the main task. You prepare fire, and as soon as you enter the city, go straight to the granary and set fire to it."
Guan Feng nodded.
"Zi Quan, you lead forty archers to seize the four defensive crossbows on the city wall to suppress the Wu army's counterattack."
"Don't worry, young master, I will definitely complete the mission."
"Jingfu, after you enter the city, you will be responsible for inciting all the barbarian soldiers, leading them to seize the four gates, and at the same time help us besiege the Wu army. Except for replenishing some arrows and food, all the spoils are theirs, and we will not take any of them.
.”
The husband smiled and said: "Sir, just be more at ease. As long as you raise your arms, they will definitely follow us. We are all descendants of Panhu. Who dares to compete with the ancestors of Panhu?"
If the master resists, wouldn't it be deceiving the master and destroying the ancestors? We can spare them, but the divine dog will not spare them."
