Chapter 175: Trapped in Shanyin
Long before returning to Wu County, Lu Xun reported the situation of Xu and Buqi, Sun Gao, Fu Ying and others to Liu Qi in detail, and it didn't take long for Liu Qi's order to come down, Sun Shao's status as Wu Hou remained unchanged, and Sun Shao's mother Sun Gu also issued Lu rice on a monthly basis according to the treatment of the county marquis, and Sun Yi's wife Xu issued Lu rice according to the treatment of the Pavilion Marquis.
And Bu Qi was also officially appointed as the Taishou of Danyang, and added the title of general, Sun Gao and Fu Ying were promoted to generals, all of whom were restrained by Bu Qi. Zhu Zhi was awarded the position of Jingzhou, and Zhu's three generals who had previously defected to Lu Xun were all promoted, especially Zhu Huan, who was directly promoted from an ordinary lieutenant to the position of general, which made the other two envious, and Zhu Huan was also loyal to Liu Qi from then on, not only that, but also drove the loyalty of the entire Wu County Zhu family to Liu Qi.
In addition, Liu Qi wrote a letter to Lu Xun, commending Lu Xun's ability to show in a series of things such as pacifying Wu County and receiving Danyang, so he specially appointed Lu Xun to supervise the military of Huiji, Wu County, and Danyang, and let him unify the forces of Huiji, Wu County, and the eastern counties of Danyang, and lead the army to attack Yuji, Shanyin, Shangyu, Yuyao, Juzhang, Tanxian, Yinxian and other places occupied by Sun Quan, completely eliminate Sun Quan's power in Huiji, and then it is best to capture Sun Quan alive and order him to recruit Zhou Yu and his generals.
Lu Xun knew that it was now February of the fifth year of Jian'an, and he heard that Yuan Shao of Hebei had already sent troops to Guandu, and the Yuan Cao War was about to break out, in addition, Liu Bei's forces had also obtained the Sanqin region, and he had established an alliance with Ma Teng, Han Sui and other departments in Xiliang to fight against Cao Cao, and his lord must do his best to end the Jiangdong war, and then quickly transfer the battlefield to the north, otherwise, once Yuan Shao and Liu Bei joined forces to defeat Cao Cao, Then the Central Plains may not have its own lord Liu Qi's share.
Therefore, after receiving the order, Lu Xun immediately ordered all localities to rectify the soldiers and horses, and ordered Buqi to write a letter against Sun Quan, and organize a large army to attack Huiji.
In fact, when Bu Qiu was ordered to write a crusade against Sun Quan, his mood was extremely complicated, he was originally an inconspicuous ordinary civil official under Sun Quan, but he had a firm belief in his heart that with his own talent, he would definitely win a reputation under Sun Quan's account.
But he didn't expect that he would write an essay instead to denounce his original lord Sun Quan.
Although it is still a little complicated emotionally, this does not mean that Bu Qi will refuse to carry out Lu Xun's orders, or will be tolerant of Sun Quan in the condemnation of the text.
In the text, Bu Qiu not only exposed Sun Quan's murder of his own brother, seizure of the ruling power of Jiangdong, narrow-mindedness, suspicion of the masses, disobedience to the king's orders and other crimes. He was charged with many trumped-up charges, such as Sun Quan deliberately sending Sun Kuang to Xuchang as a proton, instructing Fei Lan and Dai Yuan to assassinate Sun Yi, lifting the threat to himself, treating his sister-in-law and nephew harshly and so on. Because these half-truths and half-truths are processed on the basis of relevant facts, and there have been similar rumors in the market for a long time, it is even easier for people to believe that after the release of the document, even some of Sun Quan's henchmen and generals, although they did not waver in their loyalty to him because of this, also believed that these things were committed by him.
Lu Xun read the inscription written by Buqi, and couldn't help nodding his head and praised, and immediately ordered Sun Gao, Fu Ying, Zhu Huan, Dong Xi, Zhu Cai, Xu Jiao and other generals to prepare troops and horses with their generals Chen Wu, Lu Meng and others, and directly sent troops to occupy Yuji, and at the same time ordered Jiang Wan and others, who were still in Yan County, to immediately lead the army to the city of Shanyin, and cooperate with him to complete the siege of Shanyin.
Half a month later, Lu Xun's army and Jiang Wan's army flanked in front and rear, defeated Zhou Tai and Ling Cao's troops who took the initiative to go out of the city to fight, and then joined up at the foot of Shanyin City.
Today's Lu Xun has 50,000 people, including Lu Meng, Chen Wu, Huang Zhong, Liu Pan, Du Xi, Zhu Huan, Dong Xian, Fu Ying, Sun Gao, Zhu Cai, Xu Jiao and other generals, including many famous generals of the Three Kingdoms, plus a wise man like Lu Xun to command, it can be said that it is overwhelming, and Sanyin City is besieged like an iron bucket.
This time, Lu Xun's strategy was exactly the encirclement point proposed by Liu Qi at the beginning, but the difference from Liu Qi's time was that this time Lu Xun's main purpose was changed to break the city, leaving only a few soldiers and horses to block the enemy's reinforcements, and concentrating all the main forces under Shanyin City, deciding to crush Sun Quan with absolute superiority and directly forcibly capture Shanyin.
This caused the entire military and civilians of San'in City to be shrouded in an atmosphere of sadness and despair. Because everyone can see that with the power in Lu Xun's hands, even if he forcibly attacks the city, he is sure of victory, not to mention that the other party is a top wise man who has come up with a clever plan to defeat Cao Ren?
Therefore, even those generals who are still resisting to the death think that they have no chance of winning this siege battle. It was just out of instinctive loyalty to Sun Quan that they did not choose to retreat and surrender to the enemy.
"Lord, for the sake of today, we can't fight at all, it's better to ......" Zhang Zhao came to the big tent, looked at Sun Quan, who was speechless with a wry smile, and said softly.
Unexpectedly, Sun Quan laughed wildly and said, "What kind of person is my Sun Quan?" I am the son of Sun Wentai, the tiger of Jiangdong, the younger brother of Sun Bofu, the little overlord of Jiangdong, my father was shot to death by the generals of Jingzhou, and my brother was also seriously injured because of the continuous cold arrows of Liu Qi, so he gave Xu Gongmen a chance to assassinate, and the death of my father and brother is all related to the generals of Jingzhou, how can I learn from Sun Shao and surrender to the enemy? Especially to surrender to Liu Qi, a despicable villain? ”
After finishing speaking, Sun Quan quickly drew his sword, cut off a corner of the case, and shouted angrily: "Get out!" If it weren't for the fact that you are my important minister in Jiangdong, I would chop off your head with this sword. The officials will have another person who will say that Liu Qi will be the same as this case. ”
When Zhang Zhao heard this, he sighed and retreated.
After returning home, Zhang Zhao submitted his resignation to Sun Quan, asking to return to his hometown, but Sun Quan refused: "You and others enjoy wealth on weekdays, but now I am in danger in Jiangdong, and I disregard the shame, or surrender to the family, or return to the hometown, how can there be such a beautiful thing?" In the future, if anyone dares to submit his resignation, he will be killed, all his clans will be slaughtered, and all his daughters will be sold into slavery. ”
Sun Quan gave this order, all the generals were afraid, no one dared to surrender or resign, those generals all wanted to fight to the death, which could be regarded as repaying the lord's kindness, and those ministers all sighed silently, waiting for Liu Qi's army to enter the city, and then surrender.
Looking at the civil and military generals in the tent, Sun Quan's heart was full of doubts and unwillingness: "These talents under my command are all my Jiangdong talents, which of them is not a good talent in the world?" But why can't he still resist the civil and military forces under Liu Qi's command? The one named Lu Xun is just a milky little hairy head of the Lu family, only seventeen or eighteen years old, what kind of wisdom can he have? was able to win Liu Qi's trust and lead an army of fifty or sixty thousand alone, that Huang Zhong was an old man who was nearly fifty years old, what kind of combat effectiveness could he have? Even Zhou Tai admitted that he was not his opponent. and Liu Pan's reckless man, this kid is simply a stunned young man, and he dares to show off his might on my Jiangdong territory! ”
"There are also Lu Meng and Chen Wu, these two used to serve under my Jiangdong command, but now they are so ungrateful, they are much worse than Xu Sheng and others in terms of personal conduct? There are also Zhu Huan, Sun Gao, Fu Ying and other generations, these are all unknown generals, and they can all be generals, it can be seen that there is no one in Liu Qi's army, but why are these unsympathetic people who win now? Who would believe such a joke if it were to be told? Alas, it's a pity that there are very few talents like Zhou Gongjin in this world, otherwise, as long as there is a second such handsome man under my command, what is there to worry about my Sun Quan? I don't understand, why so many wizards have taken refuge in Liu Qi's command? My Sun Quan thinks he is winning people, why is he so much worse than Liu Qi'er? ”
Sun Quan shook his head slowly, he really didn't understand, why Liu Qi, who had always been an unknown waste in Jingzhou, was able to create such a great feat in more than two years?
He also sent someone to investigate Liu Qi's news before, and learned that this person was originally an unlearned, cowardly and cowardly brother three years ago in Jian'an, but he was well-read and tireless in learning, and asked himself whether it was the study of criminal names, the way of Huang Lao, the art of war, or the secret art of the emperor, how many outstanding talents like himself could there be? But why is such an excellent talent as himself not as good as a trouser brother who is not in the stream, it makes people feel unbalanced when they think about it.
"Hmph, Liu Qi, I admit that you did win this time, but even so, so what? I, Sun Quan, dare to promise that this time I will lead these Jiangdong heroes under my command to resist to the end, and in the end, even if you get San'in, you will inevitably pay an extremely heavy price, and you will definitely pay for this price. I want you to gain more than you lose, even if you get my Sanin, you will definitely be hindered by the further expansion of your strength because of the weakening of your strength, and there will always be someone to calm you for me in the future. ”
Sun Quan's eyes flashed with a hint of hideousness, his face was full of hatred, and he gritted his teeth and roared.
