Adou ascended the throne in the fourth volume, and the seventy-first chapter of the soldiers came to the White Emperor

Jin sent a henchman soldier down the city in a hanging basket. The soldier looked into the car and saw that the person lying in the car was none other than Gan Ning.

Now Gan Ning is lying in the car, unconscious, looking weak, if there is nothing. It looks like it's going to be out of breath at any moment.

"Lord Zhuge , it's indeed General Gan Ning in the car!" The man shouted at the city.

"Can you see clearly?" Zhuge Jin asked in the city.

"The last general can see clearly, it is General Gan Ning in the car!"

Zhuge Jin nodded, but out of caution, Zhuge Jin sent another person down to check, and this person also said that it was Gan Ning in the car.

This time, Zhuge Jin also believed that it was Gan Ning who was in the car, and Zhuge Jin naturally would not be defenseless against Gan Ning, so Zhuge Jin shouted: "Open the city gate, please General Gan Ning come in!" ”

The city gate opened, and Zhuge Jin also came to the city, and at this time, the car with Gan Ning also walked into the city.

Zhuge Jin came to the car, looked at the car, and saw Gan Ning in the car.

"Why did you hurt so badly!" Zhuge Jin snorted lightly, judging from his appearance, Gan Ning's injury was not light, his face was pale, his breath was weak, not to mention, the wounds on his body were constantly oozing blood, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like he was about to swallow at any time, not at all like what Zhang ~ said just now, his life was fine.

A trace of confusion rose from Zhuge Jin's heart. This was not in the least consistent with what the man who led the army said. Is there a deception in it? Then. Zhuge Jin looked at the man who led the troops. Discover this man. I don't know him.

Zhuge Jin has never seen Zhang~. So I don't know Zhang~. So Zhuge Jin opened his mouth and said, "This general." I haven't seen you before. Dare to ask the general's name? ”

Next to the crowd. Adou looked back. I found that all the people I had brought with me had already entered the city. So Adou walked out of the crowd. came to Zhuge Jin's approach. opened his mouth and said, "Lord Zhuge . We have not seen it in the land. But Brother Ling, I know me very well! ”

Adou wears the clothes of small soldiers. So when Adou came out and talked to himself. Zhuge Jin still felt strange. How dare a small soldier come out and talk to himself. But when I heard the content of Adou's words. Zhuge Jin's face suddenly changed greatly.

Zhuge Jin has two younger brothers. One is Zhuge Liang. One is Zhuge Jun. However, these two are now both officials in the Shu Kingdom. In this moment. Zhuge Jin understood. The two people in front of them are Shu Jun!

"They are ......," Zhuge Jin immediately shouted. But he was instantly stunned by Adou. The word "spy" in his mouth has not had time to be spoken.

"Do it!" Adou immediately shouted, and these Shu troops dressed as Wu Jun immediately drew their blades and occupied the city gate in an instant. And the Wu army was in a hurry by the sudden blow of the Shu army, and Zhuge Jin was restrained by Adou, the Wu army lost its commander, and it became a mess.

"Leave those Wu soldiers alone, go and set fire!" Adou immediately said, and the Shu army scattered in all directions, setting fire everywhere.

The grain and grass of the Wu army were all placed in Yiling, and Sun Quan sent Zhuge Jin to guard Yiling, which also took a fancy to Zhuge Jin's prudence. With Zhuge Jin in Yiling, under normal circumstances, even if Adou pretended to be Wu Jun, it was impossible to open the gate of Yiling.

Therefore, Adou took Gan Ning to Yiling together, and under the guise of Gan Ning, he was able to eliminate Zhuge Jin's worries.

Gan Ning is a general in Jiangdong, second only to Cheng Puhan in terms of seniority, and the old men of Sun Jian's era, Zhuge Jin naturally did not dare to slack off, Adou originally wanted to kill Gan Ning, but thinking about a living Gan Ning can make Zhuge Jin not feel nostalgic.

In the thinking of ordinary people, most of the generals who catch the opponent will surrender first, and if the opponent does not surrender, then kill them to weaken the enemy's power. Under normal circumstances, they will never let go of the enemy's territory easily. Especially when it comes to a general of Gan Ning's level, it can't be put back. So Zhuge Jin would never have imagined that Adou would dare to use a living Gan Ning to cheat the city. When Zhuge Jin found out that Gan Ning was seriously injured, his first reaction was naturally to take Gan Ning into the city, and this happened to be Adou's plan.

In the blink of an eye, several granaries in Yiling City where grain was stored fell into a sea of fire, and the red light illuminated by the raging fire reflected the night sky as if it were day, and it could be seen dozens of miles away.

A smell of cooked grain wafted in the air, but now no one came to enjoy the taste, the Shu army was busy setting fire everywhere, and the Wu army began to resist sporadically, but because the commander was not there, the spontaneous resistance of the Wu army was simply a drop in the bucket.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, all the granaries are on fire!" Zhang~ hurriedly ran over.

"It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's evacuate immediately!" Seeing that the plan had been achieved, Adou immediately ordered the withdrawal of the troops.

"Prince, what should I do with this Gan Ning and Zhuge Jin?" Zhang~ then asked.

"Gan Ning is so seriously injured, and he is also a cripple after being cured, give him a good time! As for Zhuge Jin......" Speaking of this, Adou hesitated.

After all, Zhuge Jin is Zhuge Liang's own brother, although now Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang are their own masters, but this brotherhood will never be cut off, from Zhuge Jin inherited his own son Zhuge Qiao to Zhuge Liang, it can be seen that the relationship between the two brothers is still very deep. Although Zhuge Jin is very talented, he may cause trouble to Shu in the future, but for Zhuge Liang's sake, Zhuge Jin should also be spared once.

Adou thinks about it again, Zhuge Jindi's son Zhuge Ke is now close to twenty years old, this Zhuge Ke is talented, extremely smart, and has been famous in Jiangdong since he was a child. According to historical records, after Sun Liang ascended the throne, Zhuge Ke monopolized the power of Eastern Wu and became a powerful minister. A person with a foreign surname, who took over power, naturally couldn't stand it when he was the emperor, so he was later killed by Sun Liang, the lord of Wu, and he also wiped out the three clans.

In this way, Zhuge Ke is a time bomb, and Adou feels that leaving such a hidden danger in Jiangdong will be of great help to the future.

"This Zhuge Jin is also the prime minister's brother, so let him go first!" Adou said.

……

Zhuge Jin felt a chill on his face, and then slowly looked at his eyes, and what caught his eyes was the faces of more than a dozen Jiangdong soldiers.

"Lord Zhuge , you're awake!"

Zhuge Jin sat up and looked around, at this time Zhuge Jin found that the direction of the grain and grass was blazing, reflecting the night sky red, and the air was filled with a burning smell, which was also mixed with the fragrance of the grain being roasted, but now this fragrance is more bad than poison for Zhuge Jin!

Zhuge Jin recalled what happened just now, and then instantly understood that the Shu army must have been seriously injured and captured Gan Ning, and then used the excuse of sending Gan Ning back to Yiling to recuperate, fraudulently opened the city gate, and set fire to the grain and grass in Yiling City.

"What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and put out the fire! Zhuge Jin jumped up from the ground and shouted.

"My lord, the fire is too big to be saved!"

"If you can't save it, you can save it, and if you can save it, you can save as much as you want!"

The fire was brought under control at dawn and slowly extinguished by noon.

Looking at the granary, which was originally full, but now it has become a piece of rubble, Zhuge Jin wants to cry without tears.

Zhuge Jin grabbed a handful of charred grain from the ground, touched it in his hand, didn't speak for a long time, and after more than half an hour, Zhuge Jin said: "Prepare a horse for me immediately, I'm going to find Lu Xundu!" ”

……

At this time, Lu Xun was reorganizing his troops and horses.

After being trapped in the battle for a few days, lacking water sources, many soldiers have been seriously overdrawn in their physical strength, and it is difficult to fully recover without two or three days.

What's more, the Shu army almost wiped out the entire Wu army with a stone formation, which had a huge impact on morale, and Lu Xun needed some time to boost the morale of the army.

Quan Cong came to Lu Xun.

"Governor, Zhang Ren has already transported the corpses of the brothers!" Quan Cong said.

Under normal circumstances, after the war, the victorious side will clean up the battlefield, one is to clean up the spoils, and the other is to collect and bury the corpses to prevent the occurrence of the plague.

In the case of a siege, the people in the city will throw the corpses of the enemy soldiers who died on the towers to the bottom of the city, and then someone will collect the corpses at their leisure. The soldiers in the city would not attack those who came to collect the corpses. This is already a tacit understanding in the middle of the war.

Chinese are used to burial, so under normal circumstances, there will be no insult to the corpse. Only in some special circumstances may it be beheaded, and the head will be hung up for public display. Most of the time, the corpse will still be buried in the ground.

Now that the Jiangdong Army has lost tens of thousands of horses in the battle, it should be Zhang Ren who cleans the battlefield, and after Zhang Ren and Zhang Ren cleaned the battlefield, they did not bury or spark the bodies of the Wu soldiers, but sent people to send the corpses of the Wu soldiers back.

In this way, the humanity of the Shu army was revealed, and it could take this opportunity to hit the morale of the Jiangdong soldiers. When Jiangdong soldiers saw the corpses of their comrades, they would inevitably feel sad about the death of rabbits and foxes, which would affect the morale of the army. Imagine tens of thousands of corpses suddenly appearing, and no one will turn a blind eye. Zhang Ren has been on the battlefield for decades, so naturally he will not let go of such a good opportunity to strike at the enemy.

Seeing that Lu Xun was speechless, Quan Cong continued: "Governor, after the corpses are transported, our soldiers and soldiers are already unstable, and the last general thinks that we still have to dispose of these corpses as soon as possible!" ”

The disposal that Quan Cong is talking about is actually to burn all the corpses and then bring the ashes back to Jiangdong. Although cremation was not popular in the ancients, and it was important to put the whole body into the ground, but now there are so many people who have died, it is impossible to transport the corpses back for burial one by one.

"Don't dispose of those corpses yet, come out with me and have a look!" Lu Xun said and walked out of the big tent.

As soon as he came out of the camp, Lu Xun noticed the low morale of the soldiers, and the entire Wu army camp was shrouded in shadows.

In the distance, tens of thousands of corpses lay flat on the ground, many of them standing next to them, and bursts of cries came from the crowd from time to time.

"Cry what cry!" Lu Xun suddenly shouted, and when the people around him saw that it was Lu Xun who spoke, they immediately stopped crying, and the surroundings immediately became quiet.

"One by one, they can only cry, useless things!" After speaking, Lu Xun pointed to the corpses everywhere and said: "These are our robes and our brothers, a few days ago, they were still standing alive in front of us, but now they have died on the battlefield and become a cold corpse!" And you, you, are only crying here! Have you ever wondered how they died? ”

Without waiting for everyone to speak, Lu Xun himself replied loudly: "They all died at the hands of the Shu army!" But you don't want to help them take revenge, but you only hug your head here and cry, are you worthy of them? ”

Listening to Lu Xun's words, those who were still crying just now lowered their heads in shame.

I only heard Lu Xun continue: "They are dead, but we are alive!" We who have survived will avenge them and comfort the souls of our fallen brothers! ”

Lu Xun said and pointed in the direction of Chengdu in the west: "Brothers, that is Chengdu, the heart of the Shu army!" As long as we take Chengdu, these brothers will not die in vain! In this way, we can be right against these brothers who died in battle! ”

Quan Cong next to him shouted loudly at the right time: "Enter Shu and seize Chengdu!" ”

Then, the soldiers next to him also shouted with Quan Cong, and gradually, this angry shout spread to all parts of the camp, and the frustration of the original defeat was vented with this shout, and then this frustration became a kind of motivation, spreading out to all sides, and everyone who was infected, and after a while, the camp was full of earth-shattering slogans.

"Enter Shu and take Chengdu!"

"Enter Shu and take Chengdu!"

At this moment, the originally low morale rose unprecedentedly, and at this time, these Jiangdong soldiers had only one goal, that is, to capture Chengdu!

Lu Xun breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and at the same time secretly said in his heart, thanks to this Zhang Zizuo's cleverness to send the corpse back, otherwise where would he have found such a good opportunity to boost morale!

……

Lu Xun returned to the tent, and his ears were still surrounded by the deafening shouts of Wu Jun outside the tent.

Quan Cong walked to Lu Xun's side again and said, "Dudu, I just sent someone to count it, but I didn't find General Gan Ning's body, I think General Gan Ning was captured by the Shu army!" ”

Lu Xun nodded: "It seems that General Xingba is more than lucky!" ”

All the generals in the tent understood Lu Xun's consciousness, Gan Ning was loyal to Sun Quan, and it was absolutely impossible for him to surrender to the Shu army, and there was only one consequence for people like Gan Ning not to surrender, that is, death.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now that the morale of the three armies is in full swing, it is a good time to attack, I want to take this opportunity to send the White Emperor, everyone should go and prepare quickly!"

"The last will be ordered!" All the soldiers immediately returned to their respective camps, preparing to continue their westward march.

Lu Xun led the army to bypass the eight formations and go straight to the hinterland of Shu, while at the same time, the Jiangdong naval army also passed through the Wu Gorge and blocked the Yangtze River to cooperate with the offensive of the Wu army.

White Emperor City.

The White Emperor City is famous for Liu Bei Tuogu, and at the same time, the scenery near the White Emperor City is beautiful, and the great poets of later generations Li Bai, Du Fu, Bai Juyi, Liu Yuxi, Su Shi, Lu You, etc., also have a lot of poems about the White Emperor City.

In the Three Kingdoms era, this White Emperor City should actually be regarded as a fortress, the White Emperor City is surrounded by water on three sides, one side is close to the mountain, the lonely mountain stands alone, the weather is bleak, in the majestic and steep Kuimen landscape, it is particularly beautiful, the top of the mountain can watch the majestic momentum of Kuimen, the winding and beautiful Caotang River can be seen behind the mountain from the White Emperor Mountain into the river.

At this time, Lu Xun's army had already arrived near the White Emperor City.
