Chapter Five Hundred and Seventy-first Army to Lujiang

"Haha, the veteran Jiangdong is no longer able to do it!" In the Jiangxia Xiakou camp, warships were slowly entering the naval camp in an orderly manner towards the Xiakou camp. The naval soldiers and generals were gradually coming down from the warship one after another. There was obviously some blood on the warships and broken places. This was back after a battle.

Jiangxia has now completely become a battlefield for the Jiangdong Navy and Jiangxia's soldiers to fight. The two armies went back and forth, and neither of them was convinced, but no one could take advantage. Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang, two people who seemed to be against each other, have even used all kinds of strategies and military tactics on water battles. This has been another day of battle.

Two generals accompanying the army walked down from the warship with laughter. When you walk in, you will find that these two are Huo Jun and Li Yan under Zhuge Liang's command! Huo Jun's courtesy name is Zhongmiao, and he is from Zhijiang, Nanjun. His brother Huo Du once gathered hundreds of people in his hometown to help Liu Biao conquer the world. Later, Huo Du passed away, and Liu Biao inherited his troops with Huo Jun and gave Huo Jun an official position as the captain of the county gate.

Li Yan was from Nanyang County, Zhengfang. When he was young, he was a full-time official in the county and was well-known for his talent. When he heard about it, Liu Biaoer, the governor of Jingzhou, only asked him to work in various counties in the county. At best, he was a county lieutenant.

Such two people who may never interact with each other or may even be so unknown for the rest of their lives are now standing on the stage of history. The reason is that Zhuge Liang, the Jiangxia Army military advisor.

After Zhuge Liang entered the world, he was awarded the title of the military advisor of the Jiangxia army by Liu Biao. This Liu Biao wanted to buy horse bones for a thousand gold coins, so he originally planned to do it for Lumen Academy to see. After all, Zhuge Liang was the apprentice of Sima Wei, a great scholar of Lumen Academy. But who knew that Zhuge Liang's ability was stronger than what he rumored. The Jiangxia navy changed its decline in Zhuge Liang's hands and began to attack step by step, and Huo Jun and Li Yanzheng were the first team after Zhuge Liang came to Jiangxia.

The two were heard by Zhuge Liang, and they were seen when Zhuge Liang was traveling far away. These two did not disappoint Zhuge Liang. They are now important positions in the army. Li Yan and Huo Jun are now generals, and Li Yan even controls Zhuge Liang's personal guards. It can be said that their official positions are almost as good as those of the prefect.

This is also the reason why the two were very grateful to Zhuge Liang and were willing to serve under Zhuge Liang's command. Because only Zhuge Liang can use it and dares to use them.

Today, the two were ordered to go to Sanjiangkou to stand up for battle. The goods were collected in a small way. They were sunk and injured several enemy ships. Even Han Dang, a veteran, was almost killed by Li Yan with a crossbow. Jiangdong's strength lies in his veteran being still there, but now the veteran is too old. Zhuge Liang seized this weakness and defeated him.

The veterans are unyielding, and they are extremely arrogant. The young generals in the army naturally do not get the opportunity to command troops alone. Zhuge Liang used the pride of the veterans of the Jiangdong Army to fight a lot of victories. Now the Jiangdong Army in Sanjiangkou is half abandoned.

"Two generals and military advisors ask you to go to the military advisor's tent when you come back!" Just as the two were discussing where to go for fun in the evening, the messenger over there ran over and said to the two.

"Military advisors are looking for us?" Li Yan glanced at Huo Jun. Generally speaking, Zhuge Liang might as well find them for no reason. They were all looking for Zhuge Liang to ask for a plan. Once Zhuge Liang found them, something important would naturally happen.

The two looked at each other, and even wiped the blood on their bodies, they went straight toward the military advisor's tent.

"Li Yan, Huo Jun arrive!" The two walked into the tent, and their own personal guards told Zhuge Liang military advisor.

Zhuge Liang was watching the wooden slips there. Zhuge Liang was a military advisor who was eager to learn, never forgetting books every day, and never putting down the scrolls. It was because of this that he could achieve Zhuge Liang's reputation.

"Last general Li Yan, pay homage to the military advisor!"

"Last general Huo Jun, pay homage to the military advisor!" The two of them clasped their fists at Zhuge Liang who was sitting in the main seat.

"Here you come!" Zhuge Liang did not put down the books, but asked the two of them, "How is the battle today!"

"Report to the military advisor, today's battle situation, our army defeated Han Dang, Jiangdong, and several enemy ships were sinking, and countless wounds were injured. The veteran Han Dang was defeated by Li Yan and was unknown." Huo Jun reported to Zhuge Liang above.

"What about our army's losses?" Zhuge Liang asked again.

"One ship in our army sinks, three ships injure, and a hundred people die in battle!" Li Yan replied.

"Okay, okay, there is another new victory. I should ask for me." Zhuge Liang put down the wooden slip in his hand, but his face was expressionless.

Huo Jun and Li Yan below were happy and immediately knelt down and said, "They are all military advisors who have good guidance. If there is such a victory, we dare not be greedy for merit."

"There is no need to be modest in front of me." Zhuge Liang shook his head and said to the two below. "If this continues, Jiang Xia should be able to be reclaimed and returned to the land of Jingzhou. What a pity, what a pity!" Zhuge Liang sighed and said helplessly.

"Military advisor? What's wrong?" Li Yanxin below was more meticulous and asked after seeing Zhuge Liang's helplessness.

"Look, this is a letter sent from Jingzhou!" Zhuge Liang threw an envelope on the table to the two of them.

The two opened him and got together to watch.

"This, this, how could this happen?" Li Yan was the first to shout. Huo Jun next to him didn't understand. "Military advisor, could this be sent wrong?"

"Wrong? Haha, take a look at the seal on it. Is this wrong?" Zhuge Liang said to the two of them. When they saw that the last seal was indeed a seal from the governor of Jingzhou, it means that this is a real order.

"But, but why did Lord Zhou Mu do this?" Huo Jun didn't understand, because the letter in their hands was that the Jiangdong army in China encircled the pseudo-King Yangzhou navy. After the matter was completed, he withdrew from Jiangxia and returned to Jingzhou.

Jiangdong and Jingzhou are enemies, are they not allies with Yangzhou?

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said nothing.

"Military advisor, attack the Yangzhou army? Withdraw from Jiangxia? Even if we are willing, the soldiers under our command will not be willing!" Li Yan was a little anxious. Not to mention that he had basically fought with the Jiangdong army these days, and countless soldiers died at the hands of the Jiangdong army. The soldiers of both armies had already formed enemies. Let's talk about those Jiangxia soldiers. Among the 70,000 soldiers in the entire Jiangxia camp, there are three most combat-capable ones. The first is the soldiers brought by the chief general Wen Pin. These soldiers and horses are all direct troops of Jingzhou, and are also direct troops of Jingzhou governor Liu Biao. The second is Zhuge Liang's personal guard in Li Yan. This was brought by Zhuge Liang when he came to Jiangxia, and the other is the Jiangxia army. Some of these Jiangxia soldiers were the Jiangxia soldiers left when Huang Zu left and were recruited from the locals in Jiangxia.

Even the most combat-capable are these Jiangxia soldiers. Because this is their hometown, I naturally feel extremely sad when I see Jiangxia being invaded by other places. The wars over the years have made the people of Jiangxia hate the Jiangdong Army to the core.

If he joined forces with Jiang Dongjun and withdrew from Jiang Xia, how could Huo Jun and Li Yan explain to the Jiang Xia soldiers under his command?

"Instructions? Soldiers just obey orders!" Zhuge Liang said to Li Yan and Huo Jun. "Besides, these things are not our turn to consider. Naturally, some people will be worried."

Sure enough, as soon as Zhuge Liang's words fell, a messenger came over there and told Zhuge Liang that General Wen Pin would invite him.

"Let's go! Go to the general's tent!" Zhuge Liang stood up and was about to walk towards Wenpin's tent. However, Li Yan stopped him.

Li Yan approached Zhuge Liang and asked, "Military advisor, is this attack on Yangzhou? Do you want to?" Li Yan's words were simulated. Before this, there was a tendency for Jingzhou to attack Yangzhou. Pang Tong was disrupting the situation. At that time, Zhuge Liang almost rebelled, but now Zhuge Liang is still moving. Why is this?

"What do you want? Just obey the military orders, just attack Yangzhou. We are now the Jingzhou navy. You must obey the orders of the Jingzhou governor." Zhuge Liang also gave a simulated answer, which made Li Yan a little confused. If you say you are loyal to Liu Biao, why don't you call the lord but the governor of the Zhou?

The group came to Wenpin's camp. Wenpin's military account was not far from Zhuge Liang's military account, and even had the reason that Xiakou was there, so Wenpin sometimes lived in Xiakou City.

"Military advisor, General Li Yan and General Huo Jun are here!" Someone informed the Wenpin inside.

"Hurry up and invite me!" Wen Pin sat on the main seat and sorted out Junrong and said to his subordinates.

"Yes!" Zhuge Liang and Li Yan and Huo Jun were soon invited. Zhuge Liang and others saw that many generals had already come to the military tent. It seemed that they were waiting for them.

"General!" Under Zhuge Liang's leadership, Huo Jun and Li Yan both bowed to Wen Pin.

"No gifts. No gifts, I'll give you a seat!" Wen Pin now admires Zhuge Liang very much, because with Zhuge Liang here, the battle situation in Jiangxia is getting better and better day by day, so Wen Pin is naturally happy, and because he misunderstood Zhuge Liang last time, Wen Pin felt very guilty.

"Thank you, General." Zhuge Liang and others thanked him and sat down.

"I won't say much politely. The military advisor must have read the secret order sent from Jingzhou!" Wen Pin said straight to the point.

"I have read it." Zhuge Liang nodded and said.

"What do military advisors think?" Wen Pin asked.

"Not good!" Zhuge Liang made his attitude directly, and Wen Pin on the other side nodded. What's the order? The battle situation in Jiangxia is getting better and better day by day. It's okay to have the enemy alliance with the Jiangdong Army, but he has to hand over the entire Jiangxia, which makes him Wen Pin still do this.

"I think so too, but are you and I writing a letter to the lord and asking him to correct it?" Wen Pin was thinking about writing a letter with Zhuge Liang and asking Liu Biao not to do this.

"Why do we need to change?" Zhuge Liang asked. "For generals and schoolmen, we should naturally solve their problems and follow their orders." Zhuge Liang said. "Besides, does General Wenpin know why this governor of the state is going to attack Yangzhou?" Zhuge Liang said to Wenpin.

"Hey!" Wen Pin sighed. How could he not know? The Wen family is also an aristocratic family. He would not have known about such a big disturbance in Xiangyang. The lord Liu Biao's head was green. If he didn't attack Yangzhou, there would be a ghost.

"But we can fight Yangzhou alone, why should we bring this Jiangdong army with you?" Wen Pin had an objection, and this was anger, because he also knew that Sanjiangkou and Wuchang Huangzhou are now in the hands of the Jiangdong army. If you can't defeat the Jiangdong military advisor, if you go there without authorization, then you won't be defeated. If you don't say you'll defeat the Yangzhou army for so long, you will probably become an isolated army and will be wiped out in the end.

"Haha!" Zhuge Liang smiled and refused to express his opinion.

"Military advisor, even if we comply with the orders, how can those Jiangxia soldiers be mobilized?" Over the past few days, these Jiangxia soldiers have served extraordinary things, because after learning that Yangzhou and Jingzhou formed an alliance, they were thinking that the Yangzhou navy and Jingzhou navy would attack the Jiangdong navy together so that Jiangxia would restore peace as soon as possible, but now they are reversed. They actually want to jointly attack the Yangzhou army with the enemy of Jiangdong army? They will also lose Jiangxia.

If Wenpin went out like this and announced to those soldiers, then Wenpin believed that if Wenpin did not give these soldiers a good explanation, he might be torn to pieces by these soldiers.

"Since it won't take it for so long, don't use it!" Zhuge Liang continued to speak.

"No?" Wen Pin was stunned for a moment, "What does this mean?"

"General, what kind of combat power does this Yangzhou navy have?" Zhuge Liang asked back.

Wen Pin shook his head. The Jingzhou navy had never fought with the Yangzhou army. How could he know "I don't know this!" Wen Pin thought about it and said that they had never fought with the Yangzhou army, but they had fought with the Jiangdong army. The Jiangdong army and the Yangzhou army had fought with the Yangzhou army. "The Yangzhou army has more than 10,000 troops. The combat effectiveness is really hard to say."

"More than 10,000?" Zhuge Liang smiled, "General. Your information is a bit outdated!" Zhuge Liang walked to the map in the military tent. "The Yangzhou army now has only more than 8,000 people!"

"More than eight thousand?" Wen Pin was stunned for a moment. "Where are there two thousand left?" Among the Yangtze River, Yangzhou is the only Yingkou, Lujiang, the largest one. Where are the remaining two thousand left?

"Do you know Guangling, General?" Zhuge Liang asked back.

"Xuzhou Guangling?" Wen Pin asked for a moment of confusion. Wen Pin has been to Xuzhou and still knows Guangling, a big city like Xuzhou.

"The Guangling part north of Huaiyin in Xuzhou is now under the command of the general Yuan Shao, but the real master is Liu Mang in Yangzhou. The remaining two thousand Yangzhou, no! It should be five thousand navy troops who went to Guangling City and entered the sea entrance!" Zhuge Liang explained to Wen Pin.

"Five thousand soldiers?" Wen Pin's eyes lit up. There were only ten thousand soldiers and horses in Yangzhou. At this moment, five thousand were gone, and there were still five thousand left.

"Yes!" Zhuge Liang nodded, "The Yangzhou navy in Lujiang not only left 5,000 main troops, but now it is supplemented with 3,000 new troops, and the main general has also been replaced!"

"The chief general has been replaced? Gan Ning is gone?" Wen Pin knew Gan Ning. This guy was once a naval lieutenant in Jingzhou. He didn't do well in the Jingzhou navy. Jinfan thief, Wen Pin, had stopped. If Gan Ning was still in Jingzhou army, he would probably call Wen Pin a general now. However, when he went to Yangzhou, he shone brightly. In the battle of Lujiang, with few enemies, he sent 30,000 elite navy troops in Jiangdong into the Yangtze River in one fell swoop. That stop shocked the world.

It was also Gan Ning who completely rewritten the battle of the navy. It was originally an arrow rain that flew and was on the shore battle. Although it was also an arrow rain, this arrow strut was much larger than before, and the warships were much bigger.

Wen Pin was still alert to Gan Ning, but now Zhuge Liang actually told Wen Pin that Yangzhou had actually changed its chief general and Gan Ning left. Isn’t this a happy event?

"Yeah! I haven't seen Gan Ning in Lujiang Water Village for a long time." Zhuge Liang nodded.

"So who is the head general of the Yangzhou navy now?" Wen Pin asked.

"Lu Xun!" Zhuge Liang said such a name.

"Lu Xun?" Wen Pin was stunned for a moment. He had never stopped this name. "Who is this person?" Wen Pin asked.

"Lu Xun's name is Boyan, and he is from Wuxian County, Wujun. If the general does not know Lu Xun, then you should know his grandfather Lu Kang!" Zhuge Liang explained.

"Lu Kang?" Wen Pin frowned. The name of Lu Kang is famous in the Yangtze River generation because he is a rare official who cares about the people. Lujiang, under its governance, became one of the largest cities in Yangzhou. The people live and work in peace and contentment, which is no less than that of Jingzhou, Xiangyang, Jiangling.

Unfortunately, this person was finally defeated by Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong. Sun Ce relied on Yuan Shu's support. At that time, Yuan Shu's separatist forces stationed heavily in Shouchun, the county seat of Jiujiang County, a neighboring county. Yuan asked Lu Kang for 30,000 hu of rice because the army was short of food. Lu Kang believed that Yuan Shu was rebellious and stayed in the door and kept in contact with him. He was also preparing to face the enemy. Yuan Shu was furious and sent Sun Ce to attack Lu Kang and surrounded Lu Jiang and surrounded Lu Jiang from layers. Lu Kang led his army to defend. His soldiers had been on vacation before, and they all returned to Lujiang when they heard the news. They climbed the city wall at night to help guard. Lu Kang held on for two years before Lujiang City was destroyed. In the end, Lu Kang died in Lujiang City with his whole family.

Lu Kang has only been dead for several years. This Lu Kang's grandson? "A yellow-mouthed child?" Wen Pin only realized that he had said the wrong words with a slap. This Lu Xun should be about the same age as Zhuge Liang. If Lu Xun is a yellow-mouthed child, then isn't Zhuge Liang the same?

"Don't blame the military advisor, don't blame the military advisor!" Wen Pin said awkwardly to Zhuge Liang.

"Why do you have to do this?" Zhuge Liang didn't care about other people's doubts about his age, as long as he had the strength.

"Is this Lu Xun like a military advisor?" Wen Pin thought in his heart, but then he smiled mockingly. How many monsters can there be like Zhuge Liang? This Lu Xun is just a yellow-mouthed child. Although there are many generals in Yangzhou, few of these navy generals are famous. Who is left after Gan Ning leaves? This Lu Xun is probably just a short person. The unknown rat.

"So General!" Zhuge Liang seemed to know what Wen Pin thought, "What we blocked against is Sanjiangkou and Huangzhou and Jiangdong in Wuchang. As long as they make way, the Yangzhou navy is easy to capture! What's more, the help of the Jiangdong army. Why do you need the entire army to attack Yangzhou? Let these Jiangxia troops stay." Zhuge Liang said to Wen Pin. Zhuge Liang meant that the biggest obstacle to attacking the Yangzhou navy was not the strength of the Yangzhou navy, but the road was blocked and it was impossible to pass through the territory of the Jiangdong navy. After all, the two sides were enemies, but now it is different. Giving Jiangxia as a gift to Jiangdong, Jiangdong will not only make way, but also let the Jingzhou navy attack Yangzhou navy and even help the Yangzhou navy. Isn't this worrying about the Yangzhou navy! Isn't it easy to capture it?

Naturally, the biggest obstacle to eliminating the Yangzhou navy is gone. The Jingzhou army does not need to be dispatched in its entire army, and tens of thousands of troops are enough. Wen Pin is just worried about it. It is not easy to explain to the soldiers of the Jiangxia army. You can't let them fight side by side with those who killed their robes and occupied their homes, so I won't explain it.

Let these Jiangxia troops stay here, and the Jingzhou navy can dispatch the remaining troops.

"The remaining troops?" Wen Pin frowned. If the Jiangxia army did not move, then Wen Pin could only send less than 30,000 troops, and more than 10,000 of them were elite troops in the hands of the lord Liu Biao. These elite troops were determined to fight Liu Biao. So before the dispatch, Liu Biao had told Wen Pin that another 100,000 deaths in front of the front could not cause these ten thousand troops to be seriously injured. So these days, Wen Pin treated these Liu Biao's direct troops as a supervision team, and never let them go directly to fight tough battles.

But now the Jiangxia army cannot move, so it will take place Liu Biao's direct troops for so long.

"What's wrong, the general is still hesitating?" Zhuge Liang stepped forward and said to Wen Pin. "If the general hesitates and let the Jiangxia soldiers know the lord's plan, then the general will not only fail to complete the lord's mission, but may also lead to a mutiny in the army!"

Zhuge Liang said to Wen Pin that if the Jiangxia navy knew that it would unite with the enemy Jiangdong Army and throw away Jiang Xia, it would be possible to mutiny. Once the army mutiny, Wen Pin would send troops to suppress it, and then he would still complete the tasks given by his lord Liu Biao.

So now we have a quick battle and decisive battle. The Yangzhou Army has taken it first. When it becomes a fact, these Jiangxia soldiers can only swallow their anger even if they are dissatisfied.

"Okay! Just listen to the military advisor!" Wen Pin stood up, he took his leave, what happened to Liu Biao's direct troops? Are these soldiers and horses used to fight? Wen Pin has more than 15,000 people in these direct troops, plus Zhuge Liang's troops and some other stairs, and the entire army has a total of 35,000 people.

Such an army is considered a large-scale in the Yangtze River, and the enemy is just a Lujiang naval army with less than 8,000 naval troops.

"If you just call the general, Lujiang can be broken!" Zhuge Liang looked at Wen Pin, and Li Yan next to him looked at Zhuge Liang, always feeling that the military advisor's smile was very strange. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better and faster!
