Lu Xun said in a deep voice.

"General Ling's breaking of the bridge is really a pity."

Ling Tong listened, displeased in his heart, and shouted urgently.

"Cao Cao is resourceful. If they don't break the bridge, they will chase it down. Why do you see a certain loss here!? ”

Lu Xun sighed, not afraid of Ling Tong's anger, and said unhurriedly.

"If the bridge is not stopped, he is afraid that there will be an ambush, and he will not dare to enter the army, and now the bridge is broken, and he expects that I will be cowardly without an army, and I will come to chase after him. Cao thief is powerful, how can he be afraid of the break of a bridge?! ”

As soon as Lu Xun said this, Sun Quan suddenly woke up, and Ling Tong was also speechless by Lu Xun. So Sun Quan immediately ordered the army to step up and throw at Danyang diagonally from the path.

Let's say that Cao Cao asked Zhang Jaw and Xu Chu to find out the news. From time to time, Zhang Jaw sent people back to report.

"Wu Bing has broken down the bridge and left."

When Cao Cao heard this, he laughed and said to Jia Xu.

"It is said that this Lu Boyan is extraordinary, but he sees that it is just like that. The act of breaking the bridge is even more foolish. If he continues to use this bridge, he will think that there is an ambush and dare not chase him too quickly. Now he broke the bridge and left, but he was timid. You can quickly send troops to chase it. ”

Cao Cao finished laughing, and then ordered 10,000 troops to quickly build three pontoon bridges, only to cross tonight. Jia Xu's face froze, but he didn't dare to despise Lu Xun, and hurriedly said to Cao Cao.

"I'm afraid this is Lu Boyan's deceit, and the lord can't take it lightly."

"Measuring this child, how can there be a scheme!!"

Cao Cao smiled coldly, then passed down the order and quickly marched into the army. But it was said that Sun Quan had been hurrying for days, approaching Danyang, and suddenly saw the dust behind him, the drums were beating in the sky, and the shouts shook the ground. Sun Quan saw that the Yangtze River was approaching, although the Wei soldiers were killed, but there was no panic, and immediately ordered the soldiers and horses to speed up, and taught Ling Tong and Lü Meng to lead an army to prepare to resist the enemy. Cao Cao led the army to chase after him and ordered the army to be in the middle of the road.

"Today, Sun Zhongmou is like a fish in a kettle, a tiger in a trap, if he is not caught at this time, such as releasing a fish into the sea, the tiger will return to the mountain. The generals can move forward. If you can capture and kill Sun Quan, Lone will have a heavy reward!! ”

The generals took orders and chased after them one by one. I saw a sea of Wei soldiers, and the people and horses of each department just moved. Suddenly, at the sound of drums behind the hillside, a team of military horses flew out and shouted.

"Old thief Cao, I've been waiting here for a long time!"

The momentum shook the sky, and the general at the head, holding a tiger tooth sword, sat on a red Dawan BMW, which was Gan Xingbaye. Gan Ning cheered together, and led the troops to kill Cao Cao directly. Cao Cao heard that Gan Ning was brave, and hurriedly reined in his horse and fled. Dian Wei shouted, carrying a double halberd, to block Gan Ning. At this time, Ling Tong and Lü Meng led the army to kill, and the two armies attacked before and after, and the two armies were killed. When Ling Tong was rushing to kill in the chaotic army, he was encountering Xiahou Yuan, and the two of them stared at each other and killed angrily. On the other side, Zhang Jaw was also killed with Lu Meng. Xu Chu and other generals escorted Cao Cao, Jia Xu, Liu Ye and others to retreat to the left side of the army.

Suddenly, in the distance on the Yangtze River, a boat arrived, flags were all over the sky, drums were beating, and angry waves were rolling on the shore. On each ship, there seemed to be countless soldiers and horses, and the Wu soldiers shouted and fought in unison, as if thousands of troops and horses were rushing over. Cao Cao thought that Eastern Wu was coming with all his troops, and his face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly ordered the army to retreat quickly. As soon as Cao Cao's order fell, the Wei soldiers from all walks of life walked wildly, and Gan Ning and other generals took advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, killing the Wei soldiers and chasing for more than ten miles, and then the Hui army withdrew to the bank of the Yangtze River. At this time, there were already ships waiting, and Gan Ning and the others would board the ships one after another. Sun Quan led a group of civil and military officers to greet him. It turned out that Sun Quan had just arrived on the shore earlier, and there were only hundreds of boats, and seeing the fierce fighting between the two armies, Sun Quan was in a hurry. Suddenly, on the opposite river, the war drums were roaring, and the boats were like ants, sailing with the wind. Sun Quan was overjoyed when he heard the sound, and when the boat approached, he saw a person in a green robe, standing on the bow of the boat and shouting.

"The lord is in trouble! It is a sin to be late for the minister's rescue!! ”

Sun Quanding looked at it, and it was Lu Suye. It turned out that earlier, Lu Xun learned that Sun Quan was in danger, and he was afraid that Cao Cao would be powerful and difficult to rescue, so he quickly asked Lu Su to gather ships at the Danyang boundary to wait and see what happened. If the detective knows that the situation is critical, he can put false flags on each ship, and each of them uses straw men to make a suspicious situation. Lu Su was consulted, and since Lu Xun led his troops away, he sent more scouts to inquire about intelligence. Hearing this, Cao Cao chased after Sun Quan, so he urgently taught the army to prepare and respond.

But it was said that at the moment, Sun Quan joined forces and set off in a boat. In the boat, he and Lu Su and others are suing the reason. Suddenly, a soldier came to report, and the warships on the southwest of the Jiangxi were set aside, and they came with a whistle in the wind. Sun Quan was shocked when he heard this, so he went out of the bow of the boat to look at it, and saw a person in a scarf and Taoist uniform, sitting on the bow of the boat, it was Gu Yongye. Sun Quan was overjoyed when he saw it, and asked why he was here. Gu Yong finished bowing and replied.

"A certain in Jiangdong, I heard that the lord was in danger, I expected Cao Cao to be resourceful, and he would send troops and horses to cut off the lord's way. If the lord can escape, he will take Danyang obliquely. Therefore, I asked the major clans in Jiangdong to borrow 20,000 soldiers and horses, and come to help with their troops. ”

Sun Quan was happy, so he led his troops and horses to retreat to Danyang by boat. On the ship, the people were deliberating. Lu Xun said intently.

"Old thief Cao has now won Jingzhou, and our army has been defeated again and again, and his troops and horses have been greatly defeated. At present, Jiangdong's troops are empty, and if you want to resist the old thief, you can only rely on the danger of the Yangtze River. ”

When Lu Su heard this, his face tightened, and he said hurriedly.

"But the old thief Cao has already won Jingzhou, and he shares the danger of the Yangtze River with my Dongwu, how to stop it?"

Lu Xun listened, smiled indifferently, and said unhurriedly.

"Lu Gong doesn't have to worry too much. Fortunately, most of the old thieves and soldiers are from the north, so how can we wait for the south to be familiar with water. What's more, the old thief fights on land, although it is the best in the world. But if we talk about this water war, under the whole world, who would dare to compete with my Dongwu soldiers and horses!? Even if Cao Lao Thief brings millions of soldiers and horses, I am not afraid!! ”

If you know Lu Xun, you will know that Lu Xun is not the unscrupulous person who likes to talk nonsense. But Lu Xun dared to make such wild remarks at this time, one was naturally to stimulate the morale of the army, and the other was that Lu Xun knew that Cao Cao did not have a million people now, at most more than 300,000 soldiers and horses, and Cao Cao had to save at least half of his troops to guard against the Western Tang Dynasty. Therefore, Cao Cao came to gather more than 130,000 soldiers and horses to attack Jiangdong at most. In this way, even though there are not many troops in Jiangdong at this time, Lu Xun has enough self-confidence to resist Cao Cao's soldiers and horses under the Yangtze River!

As soon as Lu Xun's words fell, everyone was strong. Sun Quan had a pair of blue eyes, and suddenly shot out two brilliant rays of light. Lu Su smiled with his beard, looking at Lu Xun with admiration in his eyes. Lu Meng laughed loudly on the side.

"What Bo Yan said is extremely true!! On this water war, we wait for Jiangdong Erlang, it is the dragon Jiao in the water, if the old thief dares to come, he will teach him not to leave a piece of armor!! ”

Sun Quan also laughed, after a burst of laughter. Sun Quan sank, and then asked Lu Xun again.

"What should I do now?"

Lu Xunhao's eyes lit up and he said in a condensed voice.

"Danyang City is dangerous, there is a lot of money and food, and it can be guarded for a long time. I can lead an army to Danyang to live. The lord returned to Jiangxia, straightened out the warships, packed up the weapons, and could resist Cao Cao for the sake of the horns. If it returns to Jiangdong, it will be lonely. ”

Lu Su listened and bowed slightly.

"Bo's words are very good. When it is. ”

Sun Quan also agreed with Lu Su when he heard it, and he was sure in his heart at the moment, so he acted according to Lu Xun's words. So Lu Xun led Lu Meng, Ling Tong and others to Danyang first. Sun Quan led Gan Ning, Lu Su and other civil and military forces to Jiangdong, preparing to reorganize their troops and horses to resist Cao Cao.

However, Cao Cao heard that Eastern Wu had soldiers and horses coming to help, and knew that Sun Quan had ascended to heaven with a trapped dragon, and it was difficult to chase him again, so he waited for the troops first. That night, Cao Cao gathered in the tent to discuss. Cao Cao's fine eyes, which seemed to be able to swallow the sky, glowed with bursts of terrifying light, and asked everyone.

Now that Sun Quan has fled back to Jiangdong, he wants to take advantage of the situation to conquer Eastern Wu and eradicate the Sun clan. What should be done according to the public opinion? ”

At that time, Guo Jia was disabled in both legs and was not suitable to chase and kill Wu soldiers with the army, so Cao Cao ordered him to stay in Shouchun to recuperate. At the moment, Guo Jia is not there, and Jia Xu is the chief strategist under Cao Cao. Jia Xu sank into the dark, so he attended the ceremony and said to Cao Cao.

"Now that Sun Zhongmou has returned to Jiangdong, he will reorganize his troops and horses to prevent our army from taking advantage of the situation to enter. But this should not be done in a hurry. At present, our army has just won Jingzhou, and the people's hearts are undecided. The lord could withdraw to Jingzhou, while stabilizing the situation, on the other hand, he allocated troops and horses, and prepared ships to prepare for the water war with Dongwu. ”

Cao Cao listened, bowed slightly, and also had this intention in his heart, but he was a little worried, and asked again.

"But the people and horses of Eastern Wu have always been good at water warfare, and the lonely male division is famous all over the world, but it is more than land combat. If you fight with Wu soldiers in the Yangtze River, I am afraid that it will be difficult to take well. ”

When Jia Xu heard this, his expression sank, and he hesitated for a while before saying.

"Don't worry about it, lord. Jingzhou is the land south of the Yangtze River, and Liu Jingsheng often fought against Jiangdong at that time. Jingzhou must have many generals who are good at water warfare. The lord can be called by virtue, and he will flock to vote, and the lord will immediately train the soldiers and horses on the river, wait for time, and then break it in one fell swoop. ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this, so he withdrew his troops first and went to Jingzhou according to Jia Xu's words. Only Zhang Jaw was left to command 10,000 elite soldiers to guard the ferry in preparation for a future war with Eastern Wu, in response.

Ten days later, Cao Cao rushed to Jingzhou, the people had been decided, the prisoners were released, and the rest of the officials had their own rewards. Cao Cao also sent people to pass orders in various counties to recruit generals who were good at water warfare, and many Jingzhou soldiers were like-minded. Cao Cao was overjoyed, each made a reward, and after the completion of the whole army, he transferred soldiers and horses from the counties of the Central Plains, counted more than 160,000 horses and foot water troops, falsely claimed to be 200,000, advanced by land and water, boats and horses double-lined, came along the river, and connected Jing, Xia, and Qi, Huang, and Saizha in the west. Cao Cao's military power was shocked, and he trained soldiers and horses on the bank of the Yangtze River, which had the potential to swallow the world.

Dongwu made a detailed investigation report, and Jiangdong was shocked. At that time, Zhou Yu, the governor of Eastern Wu, killed himself, and Cao Cao wanted to bury him with princely rites. The funeral was in full swing, and Sun Quan heard that Zhou Yu had passed away, and he wept endlessly. The ministers of Jiangdong are all heartbroken. Zhou Yu can be said to be the pillar of the Eastern Wu Dynasty, and now that people are dead, if the pillar is broken, the Eastern Wu Society is in danger. Zhou Yu's wife, Xiao Qiao, sent someone to send Zhou Yu's will. When Sun Quan heard this, his face changed, and he hurriedly opened the letter and looked at it.

The letter reads.

"Yu is fortunate to have received the grace of Sun's acquaintance, and hopes to repay him by dying. The ancestor Sun Bofu, the righteous brother of Naiyu, once made an oath to settle the country and level the world, eliminate the heroes of the troubled times, and determine the country. The ancestor died tragically at the hands of Cao Cao. Yu hates in his heart, and he takes revenge. But seeing that Jiangdong was unstable, the first lord willed to teach Yu to help King Wu.
