Chapter 213—A Feast for Crows (9)

On the fourth day of October, the Jin army launched an attack on the besieging army of Eastern Wu. Fail.

That night, Lu Kang organized a night attack. Due to the fact that the Jin army coped with the law, and the wind direction was wrong. Impressive results have also not been achieved.

After the commanders of both sides tried their hands for the first time, they both understood that the other party was not easy to match. Begin to face the next battle with a more cautious attitude.

On the fifth day of the first month, the Jin army began to divide into four divisions according to Wang Hun's deployment, and acted separately.

Since the idea of using one's own maneuver to mobilize the other party has been decided, the Jin army has not emphasized the secrecy of its own military operations - what I'm afraid is that you don't know! I'm not going to fight you in Xiling now, I'm going to fight Jiangling, that's the lair of your Wu dog Jingzhou legion. Are you afraid?

"Da Sima, now Jin Rebellion sees that the wall that is attacking us is not down, so he turns around and goes to attack Jiangling. Gangneung is where our foundation is, and it is imperative to save it! Fortunately, our army's waterways have always been unobstructed, and Jin Rebellion can't catch up with us with two feet. Please also ask Da Sima to send an army to Jiangling to defend the town! ”

"Well...... "Shi Gongxu, the highest martial artist in Soochow now, is already sixty-five years old this year. Hearing Lu Shu's eager plea, he subconsciously wanted to send an army to Jiangling. But the instinct of years of fighting made him feel that there was a conspiracy hidden here.

But what exactly is this conspiracy? Even if there is a conspiracy, it is Gangneung!

Luckily, there are smarter people here.

"Youjie, what do you think about the division of troops against Jin?"

"Hehehe, Da Sima, generals. Lu Kang asked everyone: On the premise that Jin Wei didn't get Xiling, what if they got Jiangling? ”

A word to wake up the dreamer!

That's right, Xiling is upstream, and Gangneung is downstream. Xiling is located on the border of Jin and Wu, while Jiangling is in the heart of Wu. If you don't take Xiling, it's useless to just take Jiangling down! That's called suicide!

"Great Sima, generals. The matter is very clear, this is Jin's plan to attack the west against the voice. What we are fighting is to let out the wind and then let our army divide the idea of its own troops. Lu Kang would like to tell you a little more here: according to the information sent by the school. On the surface, it seems that the strength of our army is about the same as that of the Jin rebellion. But in fact, because our army has 10,000 sailors, the strength of the infantry army is less than that of the Jin rebels. And this wooden wall of ours stretches for nearly thirty miles. Once we have divided more than 10,000 troops to the south. We're going to be extremely passive defensively – we're defending a line, and the enemy only needs to attack one point! Moreover, if I had expected it to be correct, the enemy's army would not have actually gone to Gangneung at all, but would have found a place to ambush us and prepare to ambush us. Therefore, for the maneuver of the Jin rebellion, our army does not have to pay attention to it! ”

"Good, do according to the advice of the young festival! The whole army held the defensive line tightly to guard against the sneak attack of the Jin rebellion. ”

This time, Wang Hun and Shi Ji's fighting method failed shamefully because of Lu Kang's insertion.

Of course, it is a pity that the mobilization of the enemy failed. But apart from spending a little more money and food, the side has no other losses. Looks like it should be acceptable, doesn't it?

In fact, the biggest failure of this operation was: to let the team of the descendants of Cao Wei's old generals leave the main force of the Jin army and act alone! Shu Han Si Wencao and the Dongwu Dian School, who had gathered around for a long time, finally discovered the gap in this egg, and quickly began to test and rebel against these old generals!

"In the Xia Dahan Division, I heard that Lu Ya and Lu Zhongle would meet the Marquis of Jinyang."

"Marquis of Jinyang?" Hearing Lu Ya's title, the muscles on Zhang Hu's face, the son of Zhang Liao and the second generation of Cao Wei, who was known for his bravery, twitched unconsciously: "Hey, in the Wei and Jin Chan dynasties, the feudal kingdom passed down from my father has been canceled. The old man's name is Meng Xiao, and now he is just a civilian. Therefore, if Si Wenling does not dislike it, let's call each other by the words. ”

"Good, Meng Xiaogong, the boy's intention this time, in fact, you know very well, right?"

"Hehe, although the old man has not done anything big in his life. But in his early years, he also spent time in officialdom. So, Zhong Le is here, isn't he just trying to recruit me for your family's big Sima? ”

"Hehe, it seems that Meng Xiaogong really underestimated my family's big Sima."

"Huh? What does Kwan Zi Fung mean? ”

"My family's great Sima said that although Emperor Wen of the Gui Dynasty usurped the Han Dynasty and was indeed rebellious, and people and gods were angry, Emperor Wu was really a great hero who swallowed heaven and earth. Compared with the various filthiness of the Sima family, Emperor Wu is much more upright. Therefore, the Wei family should not die. Even if the Wei family is going to die, they should not be forced to die by a villain like the Sima family. ”

"Humph! Emperor Wen was given the permission of Emperor Han Xiaoxian, where was the great rebellion? Forget it, don't argue about this, your family's big Sima's pity for my Great Wei and the kind old man understand. So, what exactly does he want us to do? What can he give us? ”

"Okay, that's down to the point. The requirements of my family's Da Sima are, first, if the Jin army fails to take Xiling this time. Meng Xiaogong should unite with other Cao Wei generals and look for opportunities to take advantage of the chaos to retreat to the northwest. ”

"Northwest? Do you mean the three counties of Xincheng, Shangyong, and Weixing? ”

"Yes, yes. Meng Xiaogong. Now your department is in Xiling, as long as you turn northwest for more than 60 miles, you can enter Xincheng County. Then there is Shangyong, Wei Xing...... Shangyong three counties, surrounded by mountains, easy to defend and difficult to attack. At the same time, there are not many defensive forces in the Jin rebellion now. Moreover, Weixing borders Hanzhong County of my Han Dynasty. If Meng Xiaogong and the others retreat there, they can get a steady stream of help from our great han. ”

"Hmm...... The solution you are talking about is indeed doable. But the old man had two questions. ”

"Meng Xiaogong, please give instructions."

"Don't dare to do it. The old man's confusion is, first, we went to Weixing, and you Shu thieves, sorry, what is the relationship with you Han? Second, if the Jin rebel comes to attack, how much support can your big Sima give us? ”

"Hehe, this is the second point that my big Sima wants to say. My family's eldest Sima suggested that if Meng Xiaogong and others successfully transferred to Weixing County. My Han provided two million stone grains to Meng Xiaogong at one time. If you need it, we can support an army of no more than three thousand men. In addition, Meng Xiaogong was also asked to remember nine words. ”

"Which nine words?"

"Build high walls, accumulate grain, and slow down to become king."

"Hmm...... Interesting. Taught. ”

"Meng Xiaogong, my family's Great Sima will launch the largest Northern Expedition since the founding of the Han Dynasty within three years. At that time, Meng Xiaogong once again raised the banner of reviving the Great Wei. Then my family's Great Sima swept Yongliang, Eastern Wu attacked Xiangyang, and Great Wei attacked Nanyang...... In this way, Luoyang, which is rebellious in Jin, will become the land of four wars......"

"Hehe, your big Sima has a good calculation. If there really is such a day, wouldn't my Great Wei be between Jin and Wu? At that time, not only will I block Wu Gou for you, but I will also have to rely on you more? ”

"Well, it's a matter of opinion."

"Hmph, please also ask Zhongle to answer my question positively. If the Jin rebellion is successfully eliminated, what is the relationship between the Han and Wei countries? ”

"My family's eldest Sima said that the notion that there are no two days is wrong. Many of the stars we see at night are actually bigger and brighter than the sun. It's just that it's so far away from us, so it looks small. Therefore, as long as Wei is far enough away from the Han in the future, the Han and Wei may not be able to live in peace for a long time. ”

"Far? How far is it? Liaodong? Western Regions? ”

"Hehe, I think that Meng Xiaogong is thinking too far now."

"Hmph, okay. The old man still has two questions. ”

"Please."

"We are all courtiers of Great Wei. Even according to the meaning of your family's big Sima, don't raise the flag for the time being. But sooner or later, we will have to play the banner of Great Wei. But we don't have the descendants of the Cao family in our hands now...... In addition, you have also seen in Yizhou over the years, and the brutality of the Sima family is really not a joke. When we came out this time, all the men came out, but the women ...... Hey, the old man has known since he was young that your big man's Si Wencao is haunted, and this thing ......"

"Hehehe, this one. We're already starting to get started. To tell the truth, since the predecessors lived separately in various places before, it is okay to live near Yongliang, Bingzhou, and Luoyang. My Han Si Wencao has roots here. But north of the Yellow River, we have no clue at all. And this matter is also involved in the school of Soochow. So it's quite troublesome. Meng Xiaogong, I don't dare to say much. Ya can only say do her best. ”

Lu Ya was not honest in this matter. Because this time Si Wencao made a move, he received unprecedented assistance from Jin Guojin Cao. In fact, there is only one real trouble for them: to compete with the canonical schools of Soochow for speed.

"Okay. The old man didn't dare to stand up bravely in the face of the butcher's knife of the Sima family, and sat back and watched the Great Wei clan being bullied and slaughtered...... If you die like this, you really don't have the shame to see your father. Therefore, this time, it is rare for Jin to be stupid and bring together our old generals of the Great Wei. If you don't take advantage of this opportunity to get into trouble, it's really worse than pigs and dogs! Go back and report to your big Sima, the other families, the old man tried his best to persuade him. But no matter what the other families think, the old man must have moved towards the Shangyong area after the Battle of Xiling! When the time comes, I will have to work hard and take care of Zhongle! ”

"Thank you, Meng Xiaogong. Lu Ya is looking forward to it in Weixing County! ”
