Chapter 94: Kong Ming plays Zhou Yu is a trick for Yang Ling
Three Kingdoms
Qi decided that HB had finished settling the people, and collected troops and returned to Linzi. Ascension to the dynasty, the ministers congratulated. Lord Qi asked Wu, Jing, Shu, and Qin how they were. Huang Tao, the squire, said: "Zhou Yu, the governor of Wu State, led the army to attack Jingzhou. Now all parts of Jingnan have been taken. ”
It turned out that after Jing Han lost Jiangxia, Liu Bei, the lord of Jing Han, ordered Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the left, to garrison Nanjun to prevent Eastern Wu from moving. Zhuge Liang went to Nanjun and divided his troops to garrison various dangers. He also trained the navy in Gangneung, and built countless large ships, which seemed to have the appearance of eastward expansion. Zhang Yun, the leader of the navy, came from the Xiangjiang River. There were more than 50,000 sailors of the Xiangjiang River under his leadership, all of whom were stationed at the mouth of the Youjiang River. The camp is based on the river, and the water and land are connected. In April, Wei Yan, a general of the chariot cavalry, and General Wen of Zuo hired each commander to lead the troops and horses of his headquarters to Nanjun to listen to orders. For a time, there were no less than 150,000 soldiers and horses in Nanjun, all of whom were called by Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Zuo. There have been detailed efforts to report this matter to Jiangxia. Jiangxia guard Gan Ning discussed with Su Fei and said: "Jing Han gathered soldiers and horses from all over the country in Nanjun, and there must be an intention to attack. It is set to avenge Pang Tong's revenge. Su Fei said: "Zhuge Liang is a wise and resourceful man in the world, Wei Yan, the tiger general of Wen Pingshi, and Zhang Yun's soldiers, if it suddenly attacks, how can he be the emperor." Why don't you invite the governor to come and sit down? "Gan Ningran, repair a letter and order the fast horse to go to Chaisang to see Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu saw the letter and said: "Zhuge Liang's villager is finally going to fight a decisive battle. The governor of Pontus wanted to go to Jiangxia in person to see what the villager was good at. Then Ling Cao, Ling Tong, Dong Xi, Chen Wu, Pan Zhang and other generals combined 50,000 elite soldiers and went to Jiangxia together. Gan Ning welcomed into the city. Zhou Yu was promoted, and the people would listen to the order. Gan Ning said: "The last general was ordered by the governor of the capital to guard Jiangxia, and he did not dare to work as the governor of the capital. However, Jing Han recruited troops and horses and gathered in Nanjun. In the end, the general was afraid of misleading the country's major affairs, so he invited the governor to come and guard it. Zhou Yu said: "I know about this. I will come here to compete with the villagers. ”
However, he said that Zhuge Liang did not know that Zhou Yu had arrived, and only heard that Dongwu had increased his troops, but he passed Zhang Yun to Jiangling, saying: "Dongwu has increased his troops, and he will fight soon." I want to visit his village tonight and see how his camp is arranged. Zhang Yun said: "Since he is invited by the prime minister, he should follow him." When he was humiliated, he transferred the warships to the mouth of the oil river, and then brought two thousand guards with him. Zhuge Liang said: "Difference." Since it is a night defeat to the enemy's village, how can you bring more soldiers and horses. You don't need to use a general's ship, you can have a ship in my village. Zhang Yun had no choice but to obey the order. When it was dark, Zhuge Liang led Zhang Yun to board a small boat, and only more than ten guards and sailors were on board. Zhang Yun said: "There are only the prime minister and the lowly and more than ten guards, what if there is negligence?" Zhuge Liang said: "The general is relieved." Today is a peep village, and there is no surrender. Zhang Yun had no choice but to board the ship with him, and he was unwilling. Turning to the bow of the boat, there was a person standing, who was actually General Zuo, but dressed as a fisherman. My heart was a little wider, and I thought about it again, even if there was a civil servant, it would be difficult to stop Wu Bing's thousands of arrows from shooting, and I was still worried in my heart. The ship started and sailed straight into Jiangxia, approaching the enemy village. Zhuge Liang boarded the bow of the ship and looked into the distance. About half a moment, he was discovered by the patrol soldiers on the Dongwu River, and hurriedly beat the war drums so that the clippers came to chase them. Zhuge Liang heard the war drums on the other side, and went to take advantage of the wind. The sergeant of Eastern Wu reported to the governor: "There is a fisherman on the surface of the Fangjiang River who spies on the water village. Zhou Yu smiled and said: "This must be the work of Zhuge Villager, although he has become a fisherman, how can he hide it from me." If there is such a thing again in the coming day, there is no need to beat the drum, but go out of the big boat and intercept it on the river. The sergeant took the order and returned. The next day, Zhuge Liang said to Zhang Yun: "Can there be a general with excellent water performance under the general's account?" Zhang Yun said: "There are many people in the navy who know water. Zhuge Liang said: "Very good! Then more than 20 people in Zhang Yunzhai were recruited, and the order was so. At night, the sergeant still took a boat to Jiangxia, still pretending to be a fisherman and standing on the bow of the boat. When the ship was close to Jiangxia, it had already been intercepted by Soochow. The sergeant shouted, "We are fishermen." The sergeant of Soochow forced the boat to the water village. When Fang Ji entered the village, Jing Han's good hand burned the boat, and then jumped into the water and escaped. The boat was full of ignited things, and a fire broke out. and castration continued, and burned the two big boats in the water village. Zhou Yu saw the fire in the Chinese army, and hurriedly led his relatives to investigate. The sergeant reported: "Some Jingzhou soldiers pretended to be fishermen, drove small boats into the village, and took the opportunity to set fire. Zhou Yu was furious and scolded: "Zhuge Village is very unreasonable, dare to make fun of the governor of Bendu like this." and when the sun sets on my hand, he shall weathered his corpse. Left and right said: "If he dares to come and disturb, it will not be far away." It is better to let the big ship chase after it. Zhou Yu said: "This is the village husband trying my truth and chasing it is meaningless." The sergeant was ordered to intensify his patrol of the river. Introduce yourself to the left and right relatives and go back to the account.
But it was said that Jing Han's good hand in the water escaped back to his life and went to Jiangling to see Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang rewarded him with gold and silver. You can't thank you enough. Zhuge Liang said: "You have made great contributions today, but there is still one merit to be taken. I don't know if I want to. Everyone wants to be in danger of the river, and they all have the meaning of fear, only one person stepped forward and hugged his fist and said: "The villain is willing to go!" Zhuge Liang was overjoyed and asked his name. The man said: "The villain Xiling Jiang Sheng." Zhuge Liang said: "The day before yesterday, I released the boat and caught several river reeds. You can choose a big fish and send it to the Jiangxia camp to enjoy with Zhou Yu. Jiang Sheng said: "If you set fire to Jiangxia the night before, you must have angered the governor of Zhou." The villain went to deliver the fish again, and I was afraid that Zhou Dudu would not be able to spare his life. Zhuge Liang said: "It's okay. If Zhou Yu is angry, he can say that it is so. Naturally, nothing happened. Jiang Sheng was overjoyed, and immediately took the reed pipe, resigned from Zhuge Liang, and went to Jiangxia. First take the land route, then cross the river to Xiakou, meet Zhou Yu, and present the reed pipe. Zhou Yu said: "What does Prime Minister Zhuge mean. Jiang Sheng said: "Zhuge Prime Minister Yun, the night before yesterday, he released a boat and caught a few river reeds. Ask the villain to choose a big fish and give it to Zhou Yu to enjoy. Zhou Yu was furious when he heard this, and immediately ordered Jiang Sheng to be pushed out and beheaded. Jiang Sheng shouted: "Wronged." The villain was ordered to deliver the fish, but he did not know the secret. I didn't dare to come here, but I was threatened with my life by the prime minister. It is also expected that the governor of Eastern Wu will declare righteousness and will not be embarrassed by the villain. So I reluctantly came here. I hope that the governor will spare his life. Zhou Yu thought to himself: "Zhuge Villager's repeated teasing will definitely anger me and make me feel at ease to use soldiers." If you cut off one of his pawns today, you will be laughed at, so it is better to let him go. He then ordered Jiang Sheng to be expelled from Jiangxia.
Jiang Sheng picked up his life and returned to Jiangling to recover his life. Zhuge Liang rewarded him heavily, and promoted him to the captain of the naval academy, and still made him return to the mouth of the oil river to serve. Not long after, Wei Yan, Wen Ping, etc. came to the account. Zhuge Liang said to the two of them: "We have been waiting for the troops for a long time and have never handed over the troops. Now Jiang Sheng has angered Zhou Yu. If you do it again tonight, you will make Zhou Yu fall into the plan. The two said in unison: "But it depends on the prime minister's strategy." Zhuge Liang said: "I can go out of another boat tonight, and I will still turn into a fisherman and go to Jiangxia." but he made the great ship hidden. Zhou Yu has been humiliated several times, and he will inevitably pursue it tonight. Right in the middle of my ambush. Wen Ping said: "On the river, there is nothing to hide, and it is easy to ambush." Zhuge Liang said: "I have calculated, there is fog on the river tonight, and then subtract half of the lights on the big ship, and you will definitely be able to ambush." The two took the order and left. At night, Wen Pinnai pretended to be a fisherman. Approaching Jiangxia, it was discovered in the water village and reported to Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu scolded: "The village man deceives people too much. Immediately got up and ordered the general Ling Cao to lead more than ten warships in pursuit. From the riverside water village to look. But it was said that Ling Cao drove the boat to intercept the boat. Jing boat hurriedly turned around. Ling Cao led the warship to chase after him, and after a while, he suddenly saw a heavy fog floating on the river, and the Jing boat was gone. In the midst of doubt, he suddenly saw the Jing boat arriving again, and several warships followed by the ship. Ling Cao ordered the arrow to be released. I saw that the fisherman on the Jing boat turned around and jumped into the big boat, and he had already taken the knife, and the fisherman was Wen Ping. Ling Cao knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly shouted to retreat. But he didn't know that he was surrounded by Jing Han warships. Wen Ping lit the torch. Rockets were fired from the Jinghan warships on all sides. Burn the boat led by Ling Cao. Ling Cao ordered the sailors to break out of the encirclement. Wen Ping saw where Ling Cao was, stretched out his bow and shot an arrow, hit him in the chest, and fell into the water and died. More than a dozen warships did not return.
Just as Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang were at a stalemate, Wu Jingfei, the general of the south, reported to the Eastern Wu court. Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Jing Han Dynasty, led the military of Nanjun, and there was a lack of civil and military pillars in the court. Liu Bei ordered the general Xu Shu to return to the court. In the four counties of Jingnan today, only Pingnan General Lei Xu is stationed. When Sun Ce heard the news, he was overjoyed, and said to the ministers: "Liu Bei only hated Zhou Du for taking Jiangxia, but unexpectedly drew Jingnan's troops." I want to take Jingnan first, and then fight Zhuge Liang. I don't know who can be the generals of the DPRK and China. Zhang Zhaojin said: "The old general Cheng Pu has been with the emperor for a long time, and his merits are so great that he can lead the army. Sun Ce was overjoyed, that is, he worshiped Cheng Pu as the governor of the southern capital, and Ling Shiyi was the main book, and he made suggestions with the army. Mao Ning and Mao Shuo are the pioneers of the left and right. There were 50,000 elite soldiers in Dongwu, and they came from the small road to Luling. Meet Wu Jing first. Cheng Pu asked Wu Jing: "How are the characters in Jingnan?" Wu Jing said: "Jingnan from Lei Xu, there are Liu Xian, the son of Lingling Taishou Liu Du, the general Xing Daorong, Changsha Taishou Han Xuan's military captain Yang Ling, Guiyang Taishou Zhao Fan generals Chen Ying and Bao Long, and called the 'Jingnan Five Tigers'. The rest is nothing to worry about. Cheng Pu asked Shi Yi again: "The four counties of Jingnan, where should I take it first according to Mr.'s opinion?" Shi Yi said: "Changsha is the head of the four counties, and it is also a fortress in the north and south. If you want to use troops, you should take Changsha first. In addition, most of the defenders of Jingnan were stationed in Changsha. If you don't take this place first, you are in danger of destruction. Cheng Pu said: "Changsha has Han Xuan's general Yang Ling to guard it, and there are Lei Xutun soldiers, which are the great enemy." Wu Jing said: "Changsha Yang Ling is not to worry. When hunting the year before last, he met Yang Ling. It has long had the intention of surrendering, and I asked him to stay in Changsha to respond in the future. Now, as long as you secretly submit a letter, you are allowed to ask it to vote. Shi Yi said: "If you can recruit Yang Ling to vote, it is just right to use the plan, and Changsha is easy to take." Wu Jing then repaired the book and went to Changsha. Yang Ling got the letter and secretly went out of the city to vote for Wu Jing. Wu Jing was overjoyed when he saw Yang Ling and brought him to see Cheng Pu. Cheng Pu said: "I have heard the name of Changsha Yang Ling for a long time, and it is a blessing to see it today." Yang Ling said: "The governor praises falsely." Today, I return to Wu, and I can't make any contributions. May it be a precursor. Shi Yi said: "If General Yang wants to make meritorious contributions, I have a plan to do it." Yang Ling said: "Willing to serve." "Yes, even if you explain how to use the plan. Cheng Pu said: "Although this plan is dangerous, it is just right. Then he went back to the back house with Shiyi and took an object with Yang Ling. Yang Ling received it and immediately returned to Changsha. Yang Ling came out, and Cheng Pu said that it was a ceremony and said: "Yang Ling has just descended, I don't know what is heartfelt." If there is a repetition, it will not be a mistake. It was Yi who said: "This is easy to hear." Mao Shuo can be ordered to return to the city with him, and first secretly protect his family to come to Luling. "Cheng Pu Xu Zhi is also called Yang Linghui.
When Yang Lingfang couldn't go far, he only heard someone shouting behind him, and hurriedly looked back and asked what was the matter. The person who came said, "The governor has something to command." Yang Ling returned to Luling again. Cheng Pu said: "The military adviser is afraid that the general's family will be inconvenient in Changsha, and he wants to ask Mao Shuo to take him back to Luling, but I don't know what the general wants." Yang Ling said: "But according to the orders of the governor." Then he returned to Changsha with Mao Shuo. After Mao Shuo arrived in Changsha, he escorted his family to Luling to settle down. Yang Ling first went to Linxiang to see Han Xuan. He said: "The last general heard yesterday that there were good horses in the West Market, so he went to the horse market with the two brothers. Suddenly, I saw a person sneaky. The last general was very surprised and followed behind. And he took him down in the woods, and got a letter. At the end, I will read the book and know what is in it. When the man saw that the matter was revealed, he bit his tongue and killed himself. Then he presented a letter to Han Xuan. Han Xuan looked at the book and said: "Brother Xu, my brother is worshipping." The southern country has not been seen for more than ten years. Although Jing and Wu are divided today, they will soon be in the same hall, and they are not very happy. At the invitation of his brother, he came to take Jingnan, and had made a military order in front of Emperor Wu, but he only succeeded. Now that the soldiers, horses, food and grass have been dispatched, they are just waiting for their brother to take care of the matter, and they will come to respond. Although Han Xuan is too guarded, he has been guarding himself for many years, and he is still vigilant, and his brother must not be careless. The brother knew that he was a drinker, and he often lay down drunk. If the big thing is not done, I hope my brother will be cautious. There are endless books, and we will meet again in the future. Han Xuan read the book and was furious. I want to take Lei Xu to ask for sin. Yang Ling advised: "Lei Xuguan worships General Pingnan, ranking among the five tiger generals, and he has the courage of ten thousand people, so he should not be moved lightly." I'll go into his camp first, and make some inquiries. Han Xuan Xu Zhi.
Yang Ling went to Z County and entered the Lei Xu army. He told the story of buying horses in the West Market, and presented a letter to Lei Xu. The book said: "Uncle Han, my nephew is worshipped." My uncle and my father were like brothers. My uncle is now in charge of the county, and my father has been gone for many years. Nian will work with his uncle in the same hall, and his heart will be full of joy. At the invitation of his uncle, his nephew came to take Jingnan, and he had made a military order in front of Emperor Wu, but he only succeeded. Now that the soldiers, horses, grain and grass have been dispatched, they are just waiting for their uncle to take care of the matter, and they will come to respond. Although General Lei Xu was reckless, he had been marching for many years, and he still had force, and his uncle was not careless. The nephew knew that his uncle had a cold leg disease, and he had found a good cure from Yuzhang. There is no end to the book, and he will recount it in the future. Lei Xu read the book and was furious. I want to ask Han Xuan. Yang Ling said: "When I came from the city, I heard the sergeant of the city gate say that the Taishou Mansion mobilized the defenders, and there must be a big event during it. Lei Xu said: "The traitor will come to harm me tonight." If you let him be treasonous, I should be the first to raise an army to get rid of him. Yang Ling said: "Han Xuan has been operating in Changsha for many years, and he has a good foundation and is eager to deal with difficulties. Let me test it. Lei Xu Xu Xu Zhi.
Yang Ling came to see Han Xuan again and said, "Lei Xu actually invited me to help and take things together." I pretend to allow it. Biyun took advantage of the night to take the city first, and then welcomed Dongwu into the city. The last will risk death to tell you. Hopefully, prepare early. When Han Xuan heard this, he hurriedly took up the Changsha garrison and rushed to Z County. Fang traveled more than 20 miles, and was killed by Lei Xu. When the two armies met, they didn't answer, and it was a melee. Han Xuan ordered the sergeants to form a formation and repeatedly rushed to kill. Lei Xu saw Han Xuan's location in the chaotic army, and shook the halberd to get it. Han Xuan ordered Yang Ling to block it. Yang Ling shouted: "Slow down! Lei Xu scolded: "Han Xuanpifu, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, what can I say." Han Xuan also scolded: "Traitor, nonsense-" Before he finished speaking, he slashed at the back of his head, cut off half of his head, and died on the spot. Yang Ling raised his big knife and shouted: "Han Xuan collaborated with the enemy, and now he has been killed, and the rest don't ask." "When the two armies had been fighting for a long time, most of the casualties were killed, and when they heard Yang Ling's words, they stopped the sword. Yang Ling commanded the soldiers of Changsha, and Lei Xu was in one place, and went back to Changsha first. Fang to Changsha, suddenly saw the city gate, early change Wu flag. went to Z County again, only to see that Z County was also taken by Wu Bing. Suddenly, a drum sounded, and Wu soldiers surrounded him from all sides. Yang Ling persuaded: "Now that Han Xuan is harmed, there is no way to return to the sky, so it is better to descend to Wu." If I don't do my best, I am forced by the situation. Lei Xu didn't descend, but Yang Ling abandoned the big knife to the ground first. When the sergeants saw this, they followed suit. Lei Xu had no choice but to return to Wu.
Cheng Pu not only got Changsha, but also divided the three counties of Lingling, Guiyang and Wuling. Since then, the four counties of Jingnan have all belonged to the state of Wu.
