The court is the same as the battlefield, where you are most afraid of encountering desperadoes.
The thinking of a desperado is different from that of ordinary people. The basic starting point of most people is to protect themselves, and then pursue attacking the enemy. The desperado is different. In order to attack the enemy, he will not hesitate to destroy himself.
Fei Yi had no doubt that if Wei Ba didn't get the answer he wanted, he would throw him off the overpass.
No one knew what Fei Yi was thinking at that moment, but he unexpectedly calmed down. Although his face was still a little pale and his legs were still shaking, his voice stopped shaking and his eyes became calm as before. It was as if he had passed by.
After experiencing bigger waves, this small overpass is no longer so scary.
"You are overthinking, Ziyu." Fei Yi smiled: "The Prime Minister is worried about your safety. Just because Jingzhou is important, Sun Quan will not give up. If you become the governor of Wuling, it will be like dancing on the tip of a knife. Sun Quan
Once you regain your composure, I will definitely devour you. Moreover, without Sun Quan's support, we will be under great pressure in Guanzhong."
Wei Ba looked at Fei Yi in surprise. This man is really a genius. No wonder he can handle diplomacy with ease. In such an occasion, he was still able to remain calm and not messed up. Either he is slow or slow.
This man is naturally good at pretending.
"In my opinion, Sun Quan is not trustworthy. Instead of expecting him to support us, it is better to completely cripple him and then deal with Wei wholeheartedly." Wei Ba also tacitly agreed not to mention that sensitive topic, as if it was something.
This has never happened. "I am in Wuling. At least I can guarantee that Sun Quan will not advance westward. The prime minister can focus all his attention on Guanzhong."
"Of course this is the best. But do you think Wu Ren can agree to it?"
"They don't agree, so I'll beat them to agree." Wei Ba tightened his hands, raised the corners of his mouth, and smiled slightly: "Fei Jun, don't you think the courtesy you have received recently is much better than before? Don't you think this
Is it because Sun Quan's conscience suddenly discovered it?"
Fei Yi smiled knowingly. He pondered for a moment and said softly: "Lu Xun is not in good health. When I played chess with him, although he sat still for a whole day without moving, the smell of medicine on his body was very strong."
Wei Ba was stunned: "Really?"
"Well, he basically doesn't go out of the tent. If anything happens, it's all communicated by Lu Lan." Fei Yi moved closer to Wei Ba, and the two stood side by side, looking into the distance. "Lu Lan is very experienced.
, I have some knowledge, but I am irritable, and I don’t have enough intelligence..."
Wei Ba listened attentively and nodded from time to time. Guan Feng and others stood on the cliff in the distance, watching Wei Ba and Fei Yi talking in the middle of the overpass. The mountain wind howled and made the bamboo bridge creak, but she couldn't hear it at all.
It was not clear what Wei Ba and the others were talking about, but he could only see Wei Ba's solemn expression. Fei Yi finally patted Wei Ba's hand, as if to say something, and the two of them walked back slowly. Fei Yi was there
He walked in front, seemingly still talking about something. Wei Ba followed behind, lowering his head and listening attentively.
"Sister, let me prepare some wine and meat for Fei Jun to moisten his throat and fill his stomach. He has to go down the mountain overnight."
Guan Feng responded and turned around to make arrangements. Wei Ba invited Fei Yi back to the cave to sit down and asked someone to bring Sun Jun. After Sun Jun was captured, he had been in a very low mood. When he saw Fei Yi, he didn't react at all, and his eyes were somewhat
sluggish.
"Are you Sun Jun, Sun Shuying, the general of Dingwu Zhonglang?"
Sun Jun blinked his eyes and nodded numbly. He suddenly realized something, his eyes lit up, and he was so ashamed that he lowered his head with a red face.
"This is his seal and ribbon. I found it from him." Wei Ba placed a pair of seal and ribbon in front of Fei Yi and placed Sun Jun's sword on it: "With these, I think Sun Quan will believe you."
"Okay, I understand." Fei Yi put away his things, ate something briefly, and hurried down the mountain. He returned to Lu Xun's camp and went straight to Lu Xun. When they met, he said straight to the point: "Wei Ba
I want to be the governor of Wuling."
Lu Xun looked at Fei Yi in surprise. It took him a long time to react. He couldn't help but asked angrily: "Then will Prime Minister Zhuge agree?"
"The general is outside, so I will not accept your orders." Fei Yi smiled slightly: "He is a warrior and likes a military career. It is understandable that he does not want to be a sinner in Chengdu."
Lu Xun interrupted Fei Yi angrily: "Are you blackmailing me?"
"No, we are allies, how can we call it blackmail." Fei Yi said calmly: "General Lu, I won't hide it from you. Wei Ba is young and ignorant and self-righteous. We also want to teach him a lesson. If the general can
We can't help but ask for this favor. If you are willing, I can remain silent now, and Chengdu will not admit that Wei Ba has anything to do with the Han Dynasty."
Lu Xun was stunned and didn't know what to say next. He didn't know whether Fei Yi was telling the truth or a lie, but he also knew that if he really had the ability to kill Wei Ba, Zhuge Liang would definitely be happy to see it happen.
The question is, can he kill Wei Ba?
"I want to think about it." Lu Xun said to Fei Yi sincerely. Fei Yi nodded considerately and exited the tent. As soon as he went out, Lu Lan couldn't restrain his anger and cursed. Lu Xun shouted impatiently.
He stopped him and reprimanded: "What's the use of scolding? Finding a way to defeat Wei Ba is the business."
Lu Lan was speechless. Wei Ba occupied a favorable terrain. Where could he attack if he wanted to? If he could attack, Lu Xun would have attacked long ago. He looked at Lu Xun and saw the fine beads of sweat on Lu Xun's forehead, as if he was watching
When we arrived, there was a big mountain on Lu Xun's back.
Chenyang is nearly two thousand miles away from Wuchang, and one-third of it is mountain roads and waterways. Even if it is conveyed by fast horse, it will take ten days to go back and forth. After ten days, I am afraid that Pan Jun will have been wiped out. For this reason, Sun Quan gave Lu Xun
The right to make decisions on the spur of the moment, but this is only for war, and does not include matters such as the cession of Wuling.
Lu Xun could not bear this responsibility. But now only Lu Xun had the right to make this decision. He could either watch Pan Jun starve to death, or make the decision without authorization and cede Wuling. No matter which outcome, Lu Xun could not bear it.
Lu Xun was about to be crushed.
Lu Lan was helpless, and he couldn't help but curse Pan Jun secretly. The situation in front of him had a lot to do with Pan Jun's disobedience. If Pan Jun was willing to listen to Lu Xun's advice and wait patiently instead of launching an attack rashly, the situation would not be so bad.
.As long as they persisted for another ten days and a half, the situation would improve. But Pan Jun refused to wait. In four or five days, he lost nearly half of his troops, and even important generals like Lu Dai were killed.
If he waits any longer, he may go into battle himself, and Pan Jun's body may be delivered to Lu Xun before Wei Ba runs out of food.
Lu Xun may not care about Pan Jun's life or death, but he cannot care about the thousands of troops. The losses this time were already huge enough. Lu Dai's army was almost wiped out, and Bu Zhi's army lost more than half. If Pan Jun was also wiped out, then Wu The total military strength of the state in Jingzhou is less than 20,000, which is not enough to control Jingzhou. By that time, even if they refuse to cede Wuling, Wuling will not be owned by them.
Lu Xun sat in the big tent all night.
…
In the cave, the torches were whistling, illuminating Wei Ba's figure swaying. It was quiet outside, except for the mountain wind shaking the bamboo bridge, and the patrolling soldiers kept their footsteps as soft as possible to avoid disturbing others. Wei Shenjiang resting.
Although everyone knew that the battle situation was very difficult, the barbarians trusted Wei Ba very much. They believed that under Wei Ba's leadership, they could win another victory and defeat all the Wu people, including Lu Xun.
They just need to listen to Wei Ba and do their own thing.
Guan Feng came in with a bowl of hot soup and put the bowl into Wei Ba's hand. Wei Ba took the bowl with one hand and held Guan Feng's hand with the other. Guan Feng blushed and looked around with a guilty conscience. The voice said: "Let me go."
"Sister, I'm very nervous." Wei Ba not only did not let go of Hao Min, but instead pulled her one step closer to him: "I took a gamble, but I don't know if I can win."
Guan Feng's eyes flashed, and he took the opportunity to sit next to Wei Ba. Wei Xing, who was on duty at the side, saw him, glanced at the other warriors, and quietly retreated. Although Guan Feng did not look at them, he heard There were footsteps, and his face turned redder, a little hot from the firelight.
"Why, our formation is very solid and Lu Xun cannot break it."
"I'm not worried about this." Wei Ba put his arms around Guan Feng's waist, picked her up, put her on his lap, rested his chin on her shoulder, and said softly: "If you take this step, you will be with the Prime Minister. He turned his back. It is easy to get Wu Ling over, but whether we can hold Wu Ling is a big problem."
"Are you sure that Lu Xun will make the decision without authorization and cede Wuling?"
"He will." Wei Ba wanted to laugh, but his laughter was a little unnatural: "In order to save Pan Jun's army, he will agree to this condition. As long as there are people, they can take back Wuling at any time. Besides, if we don't With enough food, can we defend Wuling?"
"Then what do you plan to do?" Guan Feng turned around, put his hands on Wei Ba's shoulders, and pushed him further away. "What do you want to do?"
"Attack Chenyang."
"Attack Chenyang?"
"Yes, if we capture Chenyang and get the food inside, we can support it for a longer period of time. Completely defeat the Wu army and prevent them from launching a counterattack in the short term. Only then will we have a chance to breathe." Wei Ba said slowly. , but his tone was very firm. "Any victory cannot be counted on the enemy's concessions. You can only win it by yourself."
"But... Chenyang is not easy to attack." Guan Feng couldn't help but take a breath of air and looked at Wei Ba in disbelief: "Lu Xun is a cautious person, and Chenyang is the last granary of Wu Army in Wuling. He will give Do you leave a chance?"
"It is precisely because there is no chance that I have to create opportunities." Wei Ba finally laughed: "As you said, Lu Xun is not a god, he is also a human being. He will die even if he is injured. Now, although he is not dead yet , but it was also seriously injured. When you are injured, people will always be weaker and their thinking will inevitably be slower. Just like me, my thinking is not very smooth now."
"Are you injured?" Guan Feng was startled, straightened up, and jumped out of Wei Ba's arms. Wei Ba was speechless, holding her hand and pressing it on his chest. "I've been poisoned here, don't you?"
Will you forget?"
Guan Feng suddenly realized it, glared at him, and smiled with tears in his eyes: "It would be better to poison you scoundrel to avoid being surprised and scary." (To be continued.
