Chapter 68: Turmoil

Outside the city guard of Shonan City, outside a courtyard, all the generals of the Jiangdong Army were present, standing quietly, very quiet, and no one said a word. 79 free

Lu Meng had just woken up from his coma, Ling Tong was standing on one side, the military doctor had just retreated, Lu Meng's face was pale, and he looked at Ling Tong slowly.

Ling Tong saluted: "Governor, all the generals are waiting outside, what do you command!" ”

Lu Meng said slowly: "Let them in!" ”

Ling Tong answered, and went outside to give an order. After a short time, all seven or eight generals outside the tent entered the inner room. The leader Han Dang Huang Gai and the others are Jiangdong veterans, and seeing Lu Meng's pale face at this moment, but he was worried, Huang Gai leaned down: "Dudu!" How is it? ”

Lu Meng coughed a few times: "How is the battle going?" ”

Huang Gai turned his head, but didn't say a word.

Lu Meng guessed a few results, looking at the faces of the generals in the tent, Lu Meng said slowly: "What is the loss?" ”

Zhu Ran saw that all the generals refused to speak, so he had to force his head: "Governor, General He Gongmiao died in battle!" Gan Xingba was wounded and captured, the 8,000 soldiers and horses in the vanguard were lost, and there were soldiers with good water performance who fled back from the river to get the news! ”

Lu Meng's cough became more and more severe, and the guards on his side supported Lu Meng, Lu Meng calmed down and said slowly: "I, I'm afraid it won't work!" ”

Pan Zhang was sad: "Dudu, there was no major problem a few days ago, why is he so sick?" ”

Lu Meng shook his head: "My body, I know, the old wound recurred, was attacked by the river wind, and the situation was unfavorable, so I fell ill." In fact, a few months ago, I already felt a little, and I just thought that before I was exhausted, I could capture Jingnan and even Jingzhou. In order to help the great cause of the Lord go further. How...... Ahem...... Ahem......"

The generals looked at Lu Meng's situation at this moment, and they all had sad faces.

Lu Meng looked at the sun outside the window that was gradually slanting westward, but he was helpless and sad: "I, Lu Meng, have been crisscrossing the left side of the river for more than ten years, but today I am not defeated in the hands of a vertical hand, sad!" Alas! ”

Han Dang was a calm and taciturn man, and at this moment he was already moved by the atmosphere of Lu Meng, the hero, and said in his mouth: "The governor ......"

Lu Meng waved his hand, stopped Han Dang's words, and hissed: "I can't take care of military affairs, and the military horses in Changsha are temporarily in charge of General Yifeng (Zhu Ranzi Yifeng)." Jingnan Huo Yi has returned, don't act rashly, just keep it, don't spread the news that I'm critically ill! Wait for me to repair a book, with the lord. Let the lord send the right people to take over the battle, before that. Military affairs. All are handled by General Yifeng, and the generals need to cooperate closely and not slack off! ”

Ling Tong said in a low voice: "Du Du, the military doctor just said, you should not be tired, you still have to rest more!" Otherwise......"

Lu Meng raised his right hand again. Ling Tong had no choice but to keep his mouth shut, and the generals in front of the couch could even see that cold sweat continued to break out on Lu Meng's pale forehead.

Lu Meng smiled slowly, and that smile looked at the generals. But it was so poignant and heroic: "I'm just afraid that once I rest and sleep, I won't be able to wake up again!" What needs to be said, still has to be said! ”

Ling Tong and other generals all obeyed orders.

Lu Meng lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Ling Tong and Old General Huang stay, and the others can go back to their base camp and guard the north shore, and there will be no loss!" ”

"Whoa!" When all the generals heard this, they all retreated, and only Ling Tong and Huang Gai stayed.

Lu Meng slowly raised his head and looked at Ling Tong: "Gongji!" ”

Ling Tong sobbed in response.

Lu Meng smiled, slowly raised his hand, and patted Ling Tong's shoulder: "I know, you have always hated Xingba for shooting your father. Over the years, you have fought desperately, also to overwhelm Xingba. You have also been secretly gambling and vowing to take Gan Xingba's life in person! ”

Ling Tong was red-eyed, looking at Lu Meng and not speaking, it can be seen that what Lu Meng said is most likely not bad.

Lu Meng shook his head: "I'm crazy about how old you are, even if you are your brother!" You and Xingba are both the lord's love generals, and now the situation is dangerous, since you are the lord's love generals, you can't do your personal revenge, for my sake, let go of this hatred! Xingba fell into the hands of Huo Yi, are you willing to rescue Xingba for your brother? ”

Ling Tong looked at the man in front of him with a face like gold paper, and unconsciously felt his public loyalty, and the personal hatred in his heart seemed to be a little less because of Lu Meng's persuasion. Ling Tong nodded slowly.

Lu Meng smiled with satisfaction, and slowly turned to Huang Gai: "General Gongfu!" ”

Huang Gai stood up: "What does the governor command!" ”

Lu Meng said in a deep voice: "The old general is the only one in our army who is highly respected, and the old man seeks the country, but the lord relies on him!" Meng, please ask the old general to write on his behalf, and write a letter to the lord. ”

Huang Gai's heart trembled, it turned out that it was difficult for the Metropolitan Governor to even write a letter by himself, but he nodded unconsciously: "Oh! Wait a minute! ”

After a while, Huang Gai slowly moved a book case, with his own silk silk, pen and ink ready, Huang Gai took the pen in his hand, and said slowly: "The metropolitan governor said!" ”

Lu Meng cheered up and said slowly.

At this moment, Xiangxiang City is a different weather, Huo Yi's arrival, as expected, is like a needle of the sea, saving the declining situation, repelling the powerful Jiangdong Army in one fell swoop, killing one enemy general and capturing one alive.

These two generals are all famous figures in the Jiangdong Army, not to mention He Qi, who died in battle, but the one who was captured in the past was known to the world with his own generals and Zhang Liao in the north, and dared to break through tens of thousands of troops alone with several armies, Ganning Ganxingba.

Huo Yi was worried, and kept asking Ye Ji if there was any news of Gao Jin's army, and the battle situation of Guan Yu's attack on Xiangfan.

But Ye Bing also had no choice, the news during the war was already difficult to inquire, and the Xiangfan area had been blocked by the Cao army, and it was already difficult to transmit the news to the scouts lurking in the area of Runan County in the north.

However, the news of Gao Jin did come, and he had already arrived in the Zigui area, and he would soon be able to reach the public security, and at that time, he would no longer have to worry about the embarrassment of insufficient troops.

At this moment, Xiangxiang City was jubilant, but Huo Yi repeatedly warned his deployment that he should be cautious about this result, and strictly prevent the Jiangdong Army from attacking south at this time, although he had already broken up an attack by the enemy. However, it is also necessary to prevent other actions of the enemy army.

Huo Yi even asked Ye Ji to send additional scouts near Chong'an, Zhaoyang, and Fuyi, in case the Jiangdong army was empty in these places, and divided its troops to attack Jingnan from these places.

In fact, according to Huo Yi's strategy, he is more inclined to let the lord send envoys after defeating Jiangdong, and talk to Jiangdong, although he has achieved the effect of delaying the Jiangdong Army's offensive with some tactics, but once the Jiangdong Army is provoked and pours the strength of the southeast to attack, it is indeed a little insufficient to see this bit of soldiers and horses under his command.

This is not because he is afraid of Jiangdong's attack, but it is indeed reckless to use this territory that is less than half of the state to start a war with Cao Cao and Sun Quan at the same time.

What he needs more is to unite one side and strike another. Jiang Dongjun has already suffered a loss here, so he should know that he is not easy to bully here.

Although Jiangdong wanted to capture Hefei, he could not take advantage of Zhang Liao's hands for a long time, so he turned his vision to his own side, which was gradually becoming stronger, and even did not hesitate to break the contract to capture Jingzhou.

What I have to do is actually very simple, that is, to hit the Jiangdong people hard, beat them hard, and make them feel that they are weaker than Zhang Liao, and Zhang Liao is enough.

At that time, he will promise sweetness, such as cooperating with Jiangdong people to capture Hefei, in exchange for the entire territory of Jingzhou, or a county, and Sun Quan, who has no time to look west, will definitely gladly agree. After all, once Hefei is captured, it means that Sun's vision can be expanded to Yuzhou and Xuzhou, and there is no need to go to Jingzhou. And the most important thing is that he still has some hole cards in his hand, which is Gan Xingba, who was recently captured by himself, which is the spiritual pillar of the Jiangdong Army and Sun Quan's favorite general. Thinking about it, in exchange for this person, plus the previous promise, Sun Quan will definitely agree to his suggestion gladly.

Huo Yi figured out this section, but he was a little relieved in his heart, but at this moment, Jingzhou was already in one place, and Sun Quan, who was as wise as Si, would really give up the opportunity to compete with the snipe and the fisherman to make a profit?

Shaking off the chaotic thoughts in his mind, there was a sound of footsteps outside the tent at the right time, Huo Yi raised his head and saw Ye Ji hurriedly entering the tent door. (To be continued......)
