Chapter 165: Wu Earth Shakes

Lu Meng and Lu Xun are just like Lu Su and Lu Meng in the past.

At the beginning, Lu Su also talked to him, and was also impressed by Lu Meng's way of commanding troops and military strategy, so he also secretly made up his mind and made a statement to Sun Quan.

With Lu Meng's ability, after a hundred years, he will be able to replace him on the Western Front and resist one side.

And now, at first, Lu Meng's favorite successor was actually Zhu Ran, but since a secret conversation with Lu Xun that day, he suddenly changed his mind, and couldn't help but look at Lu Xun with admiration, and his impression changed greatly!

Therefore, after he returned to Wu with a fraudulent illness, he tried his best to recommend Lu Xun to replace him and sit in Lukou.

Although on the one hand, Lu Xun's reputation is not obvious, so as to confuse his own inability to take Jingzhou's ingredients.

But, on the other hand, the most important thing is that Lu Xun's life learning has been appreciated by Lu Meng.

"Lu Boyan, why did you suffer such a fiasco?"

At this moment, Lu Meng groaned carefully, and his eyebrows were puzzled.

Lu Xun, in his impression, is a person who acts quite calmly and thinks twice before acting, and it is precisely in this way that he will entrust him with the important task of attacking Hanjin and resisting the return of Guan Yu's army.

But now, all the facts are unexpected, and they are completely moving towards their own diametrically opposed thinking.

Therefore, at this moment, Lu Meng's pale and weak face fell into thousands of deep thoughts.

He was thinking, is Lu Xun worth entrusting him with a heavy responsibility?

"Ahem...... Cough. ”

Immersed in the cold wind, there was a half-sound, and another cold wind like a knife was blowing wantonly, and Lu Meng's already extremely unbearable body was even more trembling, and he was also coughing violently.

Immediately, he endured the discomfort of his body, stiffened his composure, pretended to be nothing, and quickly ran to the main tent!

He understands that now that his own Hanjin has been defeated, once the battle report is known to the whole army, the army's morale will be fluctuating.

If, at this critical moment, there is news that he, the Lord, is going to be seriously ill.

That, the blow to morale must be worse!

Turning around with difficulty, forcibly abandoning the Hanjin fiasco in his mind, Lu Meng ran to the main tent with a gloomy face.

Of course, the Hanjin fiasco, the general Gan Ning was damaged, and the defeat of Xiakou also spread to Jiangdong at a plague-like speed.

Jingkou, Wuhou Mansion.

At this moment, on both sides of the lobby in Fuzhong, the civil and military forces stood on both sides in order, their expressions were locked, and they didn't say a word!

At the top, Wu Hou Sun Quan stared at the battle report on the case with his eyes, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded, first showing a hint of surprise.

After a moment, a gloomy color gradually appeared on his face, his eyebrows were full of anger, and his fists were clenched tightly.

"Smack!"

Suddenly, Sun Quan couldn't help but be furious, and his palms struggled to slap the case, and the case couldn't help but make a slight sound, and many letterheads and war reports on it were scattered all over the ground.

This scene couldn't help but make the civil and military forces present feel the anger in Sun Quan's heart.

On weekdays, Sun Quan has the city government in his chest, and no matter how many people there are, he can mostly restrain himself and will not be so angry.

It can be seen from this that Sun Quan at this time was so angry in his heart.

"Guan Yu Pifu, kill the lonely love will Xingba, slaughter my soldiers, and invade our state and county."

"Some time ago, his son slaughtered my Jiangdong soldiers and captured General Jiang Qin."

A thunderous shout fell!

Suddenly, Sun Quan got up suddenly, and Wen Wu couldn't help but feel the murderous aura spreading in the air.

"Guan Yu's father and son, bullying the lonely too much!"

"Lone swears by this, vowing to break the two of them into ten thousand pieces."

The next second, he clenched his fists heavily, his face was gloomy, and he shouted angrily.

At this moment, Sun Quan was really angry, a month ago, Guan Ping made a detour downstream to return to Jingzhou, and annihilated Jiang Qin's troops in Chibi.

At that time, he was very angry, and he hated Guan Ping to the core!

After a month, Guan Yu also broke his own side.

suffered two major defeats in a row, Rao is Sun Quan's determination is good, and the city government is outstanding, and now he is also angry.

After venting for a while, Sun Quan gradually calmed down, slowly sat back on the main seat, faced everyone, and muttered: "Everyone, what do you think our army should do next for today's plan?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Wen was the first to bow his hand and said: "Lord, the minister thinks that now that the important town of Xiakou has been lost, he should immediately recall the governor who is going all out to capture Jingzhou." ”

"Then, shrink the military strength, stick to the defensive line, and guard against the Jingzhou army."

A seat fell.

The rest of the ministers admonished and echoed his words.

"Lord, you can't continue to attack Jingzhou."

"Now that Xiakou is lost, once Guan Yu leads the crowd to go east, it will inevitably threaten my Jiangdong territory, and at that time, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

"Secondly, Xiakou successively Xunyang and Chaisang, and then Chibi, Lukou, and even Baqiu in the south."

"Once, the Jingzhou army captures any point at this time, then our army will be in crisis."

With the analysis of a member of the strategists, Sun Quan couldn't help but look uncertain for a while, and secretly weighed it.

He is also thinking about how to choose?

On the one hand, he didn't want to give up the fight for Jingzhou.

After all, in order to capture Jingzhou this time, their own side has made sufficient preparations, and even united with Cao Cao, a former mortal enemy, to deal with Guan Yu together.

But if this attack fails, it will be an incomparably huge blow to the cohesion of the soldiers under his command and the people under his rule.

Secondly, in order to capture Jingzhou this time, Sun Quan has also completely torn up the Sun-Liu Alliance, if he can't take the land of Jingxiang, it will be a big joke.

Besides, with Guan Yu's temperament, this time he stabbed him in the back at the critical moment of his Northern Expedition, would he swallow his anger?

But, on the other hand, what the ministers said is not unreasonable!

Now that Guan Yu has taken Xia Kou lightly, he has already grasped the initiative.

If Lü Meng led the people to continue to besiege the city on a large scale, then Guan Yu would inevitably be taken by surprise, or continue to advance eastward, go straight down the river, attack the city, and occupy the territory of Jiangdong.

Or, troops will be sent to attack strategic places such as Lukou and Baqiu to cut off the rear route of Lümeng's army.

Therefore, it was precisely because of this general situation that Sun Quan had a headache and didn't know how to choose.

In fact, at this time, for Jiangdong, it is the most correct to stop continuing to attack Jingzhou and shrink the military strength!

It's just that Sun Quan was not reconciled and gave up the opportunity to compete for Jingzhou.

In the past ten years, since Liu Bei took Nanjun as his own, he has expanded his territory one after another, and his strength has become stronger and stronger, and even now, he has the strength to compete with Jiangdong.

Thinking of this, Sun Quan couldn't help but become more and more jealous of Liu Bei, and couldn't help but show ruthlessness, shouting: "Everyone, Lone Decision to order Lü Meng to send troops back to defend Lukou, Baqiu and other places. ”

"Then, he will continue to lead the people to besiege the city and attack Nanjun."

"Inform him that he will swear to take Jingzhou this time, and he will not return it if he does not break Jingxiang!"

After a pause, his face remained unchanged, and he continued: "Then, from Jingkou, Jianye and other places, recruit soldiers as soon as possible, rush to the aid of Xunyang, and order Cheng Shi and Zhou Shao, who are stationed here, to lead the army westward and besiege Xiakou. ”

"Recapture the city and expel Guan Yu."

A seat fell.

Sun Quan finally made a decision, he wanted to give it a go.

Even, it's already all or nothing!

After all, now he has felt a strong crisis, an unprecedented crisis.

It must be known that now that Lü Meng led the crowd to take Jingzhou, he still took advantage of his unpreparedness and Guan Yu's Northern Expedition to suddenly send troops to fight.

It's just that the current situation is so bad.

This already made Sun Quan feel that the threat of the Han army in Jiangdong had far exceeded that of the Cao army.
