Chapter 47: An Explanation

After the first tentative attack was repulsed, it seemed that even God did not support the siege of the Wu army, and the heavy rain that had been interrupted for several days began to fall again.

The heavy rain poured down and the land under Shiyang City was wet and muddy, with potholes, broken ladder trucks and siege vehicles that needed to be repaired, and dense heavy rain that needed to be endured.

As a result, the offensive of the Wu army suddenly slowed down.

Sun Quan, the king of Wu, ordered that the 50,000 army be divided into four, commanded by himself, Sun Huan, Xu Sheng and Zhu Ran respectively, and besieged the four gates of Shiyang, besieging but not attacking.

Looking at the rain and fog floating at the head of the city, Wen Ping's mood was as cheerful as the soft sound of raindrops hitting the roof tiles, and he was even in the mood to drink.

On the city tower, Wen Ping pressed the wine jug with his hand, looking at the Wu army camp that was scattered a mile away, and his eyes lit up slightly.

In Shiyang City, there are 12,000 people with armor, and if the people are requisitioned and the people are strong, they can get more than 3,000 people, and the grain and grass accumulated are enough to supply the needs of the whole city for a year.

Therefore, the last thing he is afraid of is the siege!

Luoyang Palace, Jiafu Palace

The young Emperor of Wei, Cao Rong, was sitting down with the ministers and important ministers.

"Your Majesty, Wu rebelled against Sun Quanxing and raised troops in Kou Jiangxia, please send troops to save him." Taiwei Zhong Xuan held a hairpin in his hand, and bowed slightly to Cao Rong when he left the table, and reported.

Without waiting for Cao Rong to answer, Situ Huaxin said: "Xiangfan's soldiers can be sent to save Jiangxia." ”

"What Situ said no!" Cao Rong spoke out resolutely, and his majestic voice dragged on long and bright.

Whenever a new monarch ascends the throne, it is common for them to be despised and have no prestige in the face of a group of former emperors and former ministers who have been in the ups and downs of the sea.

And the situation encountered by Cao Rong is the same as that of Liu Yong, and establishing prestige in the hearts of the ministers is the first priority.

"I received a report from the front line that Wu thieves not only invaded Jiangxia, but Zhuge Jin was also Kou Xiangyang. Xiangfan is related to the overall situation of Jingzhou and cannot be moved lightly. "Cao Rong has received good training and education since childhood, and although he is young, he is no stranger to important military affairs.

Being vetoed by the emperor, Hua Xin was slightly surprised, and continued to speak: "In this case, please send troops from China (Central Plains) to save Jiangxia." ”

Cao Rong avoided answering, but asked Cao Xiu sideways: "What does the general of the Chinese army think?" ”

Hearing this, Cao Xiu got up and clenched his fists and said to Cao Rong: "The minister is willing to raise a division to rush to Jiangxia to control Sun Quan's rebellion for His Majesty." ”

"Please sit back on the general," Cao Rong waved his hand, with a triumphant smile on his face, "All the emperors thought that they needed to mobilize the generals to rescue the generals, but I didn't. ”

Cao Rong made a false guide, looking confident, and said in a condensed voice: "Sun Quan has lived in Jiangzuo for a long time and is good at water warfare, which is the reason why he dares to get off the boat to fight on land - he comes and goes freely, and he is unprepared. Now that he is in a standoff with Wenpin, the difference between the forces of the offensive and defensive sides is not huge, and Sun Quan will not fight for a long time after all. ”

Oh?

Sima Yi, who had been silent during the court discussion, raised his head at this moment and cast an appreciative look at the key new monarch in Yiyan.

"So, I will, just send an envoy to comfort the borderland."

"Your Majesty, this move is inevitably too careless!" Taiwei Zhong Xuan really felt that the emperor regarded military affairs as child's play.

"The humble minister agrees with His Majesty's decision, and the Holy Ming has no fault with Your Majesty." Sima Yi did not hesitate to go out to support Cao Rong.

Cao Rong gave Sima Yi a grateful look and made a decision: "Spread the edict: Send the ruling scholar to serve the imperial Shi Xunyu to hold the festival, comfort the border party, and go to Jiangxia to declare his intentions!" ”

Time is time, and it never stops being lost.

What you love, does not stay temporarily because of what you love; What you have lost can never be recovered, and it will not be turned over by your will.

During the subsequent two months of the siege of Jiangxia, Sun Quan did not attack the city again, and the time for the siege was far longer than the time for the siege.

"In this battle, the widow swears to take this city!" This sentence still echoes in the ears of some people, but it has turned into an echo of "what was said in the past".

Sun Quan also understood that in the final analysis, he attacked Jiangxia to see if he could pull out the nail north of Wuchang, not to attack the city and seize the land and open up the territory, otherwise he would not only bring this little people, at least tens of thousands.

The time crossed into the winter of October, the sixth day of the first month

The rainy season in Jingxiang has passed, the river water has fallen back to its original water level, and the roads and communications in Jiangxia counties have been restored.

The sixth day and night of the first month

Annoyed, Sun Quan sat alone in the tent drinking, and in a flicker, Ding Feng, the Yamen general, broke into the tent with a nervous look.

"King, there is a situation!"

"Huh?" Startled by Ding Feng, Sun Quan woke up most of the time, pressed the sword with his right hand and immediately got up, and shouted: "What's the situation?" ”

"King, there is a fire on the mountain to the north, and the torches are connected into a long dragon!"

What the?

"Wenpin's reinforcements are coming?" Sun Quan quickly bypassed a few cases, dodged out of the account, and looked north.

In the dark night, on the mountains stretching in the north, clusters of torches are like torches connected into dragons, and the fire dragon soars to the east, almost reflecting the dark and dark night sky in the north.

"It's a civilian reinforcement!" Sun Quan gritted his teeth and affirmed.

"Not good!" Immediately, Sun Quan suddenly changed color and said in horror: "Looking at the direction of their eastward journey, could it be that the target is ...... Xiakou Port! ”

After Sun Quan pointed out, Ding Feng also had a heartbeat, "Xiakou Port, we only leave the naval division to defend, the naval division is not good at land warfare, if Xiakou Port loses our army, we will not be able to go back to Jiangnan!" ”

"That's right! Damn it! Sun Quan's face was gloomy, and he said to Ding Feng sharply: "Go and give an order, the whole army will immediately pull out the camp, return to Xiakou Port, and withdraw to Wuchang!" ”

In the winter and October of the seventh year of the early Huang Dynasty, Xun Yu went to Jiangxia, and the hair office passed through the county soldiers and rode thousands of people from the foot to take the mountain to raise the fire, and Sun Quan retreated.

In October, the south enters early winter, and the temperature also drops.

After Li Yan arrived in Luo County, the matter of Guanghan was completely resolved. In the process of clearing the Guanghan people, there were landlords who tried to stop them, and after Li Yan used iron-blooded means to dispose of the Cheng clan, everyone was afraid of Li Yan's prestige, so that the inventory work could be carried out.
