Chapter 339: Hunting in Lu IV
The time entered August of the second year of the Warring States period.
At this time, the whole world began to be turbulent, not only the three major vassal states of Wu, Lu, and Wei, which were haunting the land of Xuzhou, but also other vassal states began to move.
Gone are the days of peace, followed by declarations of war between vassal states, expansion of territory, endless wars, and turmoil in the world.
The first to move was not the state of Wu, but the state of Jin, in August, at the beginning of the year, the king of Jin Yuan Shao, in Yecheng and swore an oath, claiming to raise 500,000 troops, declaring war on Sun Zan of Youzhou Yanguo.
The Jin-Yan War broke out.
Followed by Liangzhou, Liangzhou and Guanzhong, the northwest land, several large and small countries were divided, and naturally wanted to swallow and deal with them, and became the great princes of the world.
Liang King Ma Teng was the first to move, raising tens of thousands of troops, with the eldest son Ma Chao and the righteous son Pang De as the vanguard, declaring war on the Chiyang State that was guarding Chang'an.
At the same time, the Jin Kingdom also began to declare war on the Pingyang Kingdom, and the Jin King Han then rose from Jincheng, tens of thousands of northern cavalry, killed in Guanzhong, and approached the land of Hedong.
While the Northland was stormy, the Southwest, too, began to be restless.
Chu and Shu are both orphans of the Han Dynasty, and the Liu clan has always been safe and sound, but if there is more than one of them who is ambitious Liu Bei, it will be different.
A few months ago, Liu Bei's assassination of Sun Quan was unsuccessful, and he was severely retaliated by the assassins of Wu Guojinyiwei, and Liu Bei, who was defenseless, suffered heavy losses.
Zhang Fei was seriously injured, Chen Deng broke his leg and escaped with his life, and Jian Yong, who was the first to follow him, died...... There are also several outstanding young generals under his command, including Guan Yu's son Guan Ping, who was also killed one by one.
Now the big loss made Liu Bei furious. His heart began to sit still, Wu was in Jiangdong, the soldiers were strong, he couldn't retaliate, he could only strengthen himself quickly.
With the retreat of the Wei army. His position in the state of Chu also became dangerous, and he began to look for a way out, and the one who entered Sichuan was his way out, and he began to send people to start a big move on the border between the state of Chu and the state of Lu, provoking the relationship between the two countries.
The turmoil on the borders of the two countries can help him benefit from this.
Under Zhuge Liang's planning. Wei Yan led 3,000 elite soldiers and entered Sichuan along the way, as the vanguard of supporting Liu Zhang's fight against Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, which was the first step for Liu Bei to gain a firm foothold in Shu.
Immediately after that, one master and one conspirator began to calculate the rise of the Chu State. Although Liu Biao is shrewd, he has a stupid son, and Liu Qi is depressed in the Chu State and let the two find the opportunity.
……
When the undercurrents in the southwest region continued, the state of Wu had begun to enter the final stage of oath-taking.
The elite soldiers of Wu who were transferred back from all over the country were stationed in the plains outside Jinling City one by one, stretching dozens of meters of camp tents, waiting for the Northern Expedition to be sworn in. Full of confidence in this battle.
August, 10th.
There are only five days left before the oath to go to the country of Lu. On this day, Sun Quan rode a big horse and led dozens of guards to hurriedly appear at the yamen of Jinyiwei.
"Li Nie greets the prince!"
Li Ne went out to greet him, his eyes were like torches, and he watched Sun Quan appear here. An indescribable thought appeared on his face.
He didn't wonder why Sun Quan suddenly appeared in the Jinyi Guard's yamen.
Because, he knows. Sun Quan's trip was for him.
"Lao Li, I haven't been here at the Jinyiwei headquarters for a while. Something unfamiliar, hehe! Sun Quan walked into the lobby of Jinyiwei, and his laughter was a little helpless.
"Subordinates welcome the prince to come often!"
Li Nie said lightly: "But the prince came today, presumably not to miss his hometown!" ”
"Huh!"
When Sun Quan heard this, he hurriedly touched his nose and smiled.
Li Nie is too smart, if you talk about figuring out people's hearts, no one in the Wu Kingdom is as good as him, and his little caution can't hide his eyes at all.
"Well, in front of you, I'm too lazy to go around in circles!"
Sun Quan sighed, looked at Li Nie, and said in a deep voice: "I came here for Lu Bu on this trip!" ”
"Sure enough, both the prince and the king are still Lu Bu, who wants to recruit the world's number one general, right?"
When Li Ne heard this, his eyes crossed a cold and cold light, and he said what Sun Quan thought.
"Yes!"
When Sun Quan heard this, he said frankly: "Lu Bu is not a good monarch, but he is definitely a peerless general who is unparalleled in the world, and if he gets it, he can help me Wu dominate the world!" ”
"This person is half-hearted, from Ding Yuan to Liu Bei, the three surnamed slaves, but he is a rebellious wolf and can't become a hunting dog!"
Li Nie said lightly.
"You're right, he's an unruly wolf, if it was before, I wouldn't mention it, I wouldn't think about it, but now it's different."
Sun Quan squinted, his eyes flashed with a scorching light, and said: "People, there will always change, if the country of Lu is gone, Lu Bu's dream of being a king is completely shattered, he has gained it and lost it, he does not have Liu Bei's toughness, so he will be disheartened, and compared to Liu Bei, although this person is a villain, he attaches great importance to his family, and he will choose to surrender when it comes to life and death." ”
The historical record should not be wrong, once Xiapi is lost, Lu Bu's last choice should be to surrender.
The number one fierce general in the world, just this one name is enough for Wu Guo to risk to recruit him.
"Prince, now that the war has not started, you have spoken to recruit a dignified King Lu, don't you think it is too conceited?" Li Nie pondered for a moment and said.
"It's not conceit, it's Wu Guo's self-confidence!"
Sun Quan said firmly: "This battle will be won!" ”
"Then are you confident that you can suppress such a tiger?" Li Nie sighed.
Sun Quan's eyes were scorching, and he said confidently: "Wu Guo needs him, and naturally he has the ability to suppress him!" ”
"You say all the good and bad things!"
Li Nie groaned for a while, spread his hands, and said helplessly: "What else can a certain family say!" ”
"Li Wenwu, I, Sun Zhongmou, value your talents, so I also value your feelings and moods, I don't want you to lose your loyalty to Wu because of Lu Bu, if Lu Bu and you, if you have to choose one, I will choose you!"
Sun Quan said frankly.
Li Ru and Dong Zhuo's son-in-law still have a relationship, although Dong Zhuo died at his hands, but if there was no Lu Bu's rebellion, he would fight his little man, and it would not even be enough to stuff Dong Zhuo's teeth.
Sun Quan always knew that Li Ne had a hatred for Lu Bu, so when Sun Jian's policy towards Lu Bu was to surrender if he could, he came to Jinyiwei as soon as possible.
"With the words of the prince and the marquis, Li Nie has no regrets!"
Li Nie's body trembled slightly, his eyes stared at Sun Quan, and he sighed for a long time before he smiled, smiled very relaxedly, and said lightly: "Today's Li Huaide is no longer the Li Wenwei of the past, I am Li Nie, Wu Guo Li Nie, I can tolerate Lu Bu, but I will also stare at him deadly, because I am not at ease with him." ”
"This is your duty as a brocade guard!"
Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
"Speaking of the duties of Jinyiwei, Junhou, don't take this battle lightly, self-confidence is a good thing, if you are conceited, you will be defeated, Lu Bu will deal with it, but Cao Cao is a difficult guy, according to our intelligence, the troops dispatched by Wei are not under our Wu State, and the news from Lu State that the ghost pawn has rebelled against several henchmen under Lu Bu's command."
Li Ne said this, a little gloating: "Lu Bu this fang, got Xuzhou, after establishing himself as the king, he was lost in the heart of the lonely wolf in the prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River, and began to enjoy himself comfortably, lost his sharpness, lost the people's hearts, he relied on the eight strong generals the most, the ghost pawn won two, and I also won one, this battle, if he is undefeated, heaven will not tolerate it." ”
"Do you know who the ghost is plotting against?" Sun Quan remembered that it seemed that Lu Bu had indeed been betrayed several times at the last moment in history, and he asked.
"Clearly!" Li Niedao.
"Find an appropriate time and reveal it to Lu Bu." Sun Quan's eyes flashed with a gleam, he didn't need to ask who it was, Li Nie would naturally arrange things.
"When is the right time?" Li Nie asked after a deep sigh.
"The right time is naturally when the two armies face each other, as for the exact time, you can grasp this yourself." Sun Quan smiled faintly.
"Got it!"
Li Nie smiled gloomily, a touch of coldness filled his eyes, and suddenly he remembered a difficult thing, stood up, took out a copy of the copy, handed it to Sun Quan, and said softly: "There are people in Liaodong who are restless!" ”
"Who?"
When Sun Quan heard this, his eyes were filled with a touch of coldness, and his face suddenly became a little ugly.
"What a whimsical thing they are!"
Sun Quan closed the paperwork, smiled coldly, and said to Li Nie: "Let their plan be ruined, now the focus of our Wu State is still in the south, and we don't have the strength to seize Yan State at all, even if we take Yan State, we can't hold it, and we are charged with betraying our allies, but in the end we want to cheapen Yuan Shao, this business can't be done, if you want to keep Youzhou, Gongsun Zan can't die yet!" ”
"What should the third prince do?"
Li Nie squinted and asked.
"When I had the wedding reception, he wasn't there, I didn't feel right, he grew up, it's good to be ambitious, but also do what you can and teach him a lesson!" Sun Quan smiled faintly, he didn't expect that the little kid who followed him and Sun Ce in the past would have such great ambitions.
"The family has a lot of strength in this matter!" Li Nie said: "I intend to assist the third prince to ascend to the throne of Dabao!" ”
"Bullshit, they want to work for their welfare, puppets who listen to them, they are really desperate!"
Sun Quan sneered and said: "I don't dare to intervene in the competition between me and Sun Ce, I want to launch a puppet, Yu Chuan and Wei Teng, the two old guys, really think about it, now they are all ranked in Jiuqing, in a high position, but they are not satisfied, isn't this forcing me to deal with them?" ”
"It's too early to talk about dealing with them!" Li Nie shook his head, don't look at the power of the family being overwhelmed by the court, but the foundation is still there, and it will be difficult to move them within twenty years.
"Humph!"
Sun Quan snorted coldly and said, "Angered so-and-so, a certain family united with Sun Bofu and gave them a hard stick to sink them!" (To be continued)
