Chapter 601: Lu Boyan crosses the river in white
readx;
Under the city of Xiangyang, Pang Tong did not attack the city, but ordered his army to close the west, south, and north gates, leaving only the east gate for Sima Yi to escape, and asked Liu Xian to cut off the connection between Xiangyang and Jiangling, Runan and other cities, including the transportation of grain, grass, and materials! However, this is only a palliative but not a cure, with the materials in Xiangyang City, Sima Yi will not be a problem for a few years!
"Kong Ming, you're finally here!" After five days of siege, Zhuge Liang came with a large army, and Pang Tong received the retribution, and immediately led the generals out of the camp to greet him. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"I've come early enough, and you don't know, the king told us not to attack the city as much as possible, so where can I go as fast as possible? Fancheng is also a strong city! Zhuge Liang waved a feather fan with a smile on his face, and with a white dress, he was indescribably handsome, which made Pang Tong very jealous!
Shaking his head, throwing out the messy thoughts, Pang Tong said: "Don't talk nonsense, the king gave you all the guys made by the Ministry of Industry, and you have to come to the heavy task of attacking the city!" ”
"It's nature!" Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "If I hadn't wanted to hit Sima Yi by surprise, I wouldn't have stayed in Fancheng for so long!" ”
"When are you going to do it?" Staring at Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong wanted to know how powerful the new thunderbolt car of the Ministry of Industry was.
"Do you want me to discuss military aircraft with you here?" Zhuge Liang was a little crying and laughing, this is the gate of the camp!
Pang Tong laughed and said, "It's me who is sluggish!" Brother Kong Ming, generals, inside the front! ”
Led everyone to the big tent of the Chinese army, and there were two handsome chairs on the top, after all, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were equal, and it was not good for anyone to sit in the capital. But Pang Tong sat down beside Zhuge Liang, and immediately formed a sharp contrast, how he looked like a monkey. Looking at everyone's flushed faces, Pang Tong couldn't help but sigh in his heart: The image is ruined..."Shiyuan, I attack Xiangyang, what are you going to do?" At the last moment, it was Zhuge Liang who relieved Pang Tong, and he didn't want to see his brother embarrassed.
"Me?" Pang Tong naturally knew the thoughts of his old friend, and he smiled: "I will lead the troops to cut off the connection between Xiangyang and the surrounding areas, and prevent the outside world from transporting supplies to Xiangyang!" ”
"No!" Zhuge Liang said: "Passive defense is not as good as active attack, attacking as defense is the strongest defense method!" I suggest you go and attack Gangneung Fortress! ”
"You're not kidding!" Pang Tong was stunned for a moment and said: "Xiangyang has been the seat of Jingzhou for decades, and the city is almost the same as Chang'an and Luoyang. We are all from Jingzhou, don't play with me! ”
"If you still remember that you are from Jingzhou, you won't let the Pang family help?" Zhuge Liang shook his head, as if he was a little helpless.
Pang Tong said: "If the Pang family can help me, then there will be ghosts!" It's not that you don't know that since the family learned about the king's policy, they have been fighting against the king. This is also the reason why my father and I both voted for the king, but we couldn't move the Pang family under the king! ”
"Then you will attack Hengyang, Nanjun, Jiangxia and other places, anyway, Sima Yi is trapped here, and he has no ability to stop you from seizing Jingzhou! As for Cao Ying, the king is repairing him! Zhuge Liang raised his eyebrows, he didn't want Pang Tong to waste time under Xiangyang City with elite cavalry!
"Okay!" Pang Tong thought about it, the siege of the city was indeed nothing to do, he nodded and said: "I'll take people to Jiangling first, I hope the general will be an idiot!" If he goes out of the city to fight, I can easily take Gangneung!" ”
"Don't even think about it!" Zhuge Liang said with a smile; "Sima Yi has ordered the generals of Jingzhou to strictly guard the city and not to fight. Do you think that the Jiangling Shou will ignore Sima Yi's orders? ”
"You don't want me to use cavalry to capture Gangneung!" Pang Tong was a little dumbfounded, if he couldn't lure the enemy general out of the city, he really couldn't let his army rush up the tall city wall of Jiangling!
"Don't worry, someone will help you!" Zhuge Liang smiled slightly: "Bo Yan stayed a little bored in Fuguan, so he brought his soldiers to Jingzhou to help in the war. Perhaps, before you get to Gangneung, they have already taken the city! ”
"Bo Yan?" Pang Tong smiled: "He does have a set of water battles, but when it comes to siege, he is not necessarily stronger than me!" I can't even take Gangneung, can he do it? He can't take the ship up to the city! ”
"Shi Yuan, there are many capable people under the command of the king, and they must not be small..."Zhuge Liang smiled mysteriously, but Pang Tong felt a lot of pressure.
Just when Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were discussing the route of the army, a fleet of ships came to the ferry next to Jiangling City. This fleet has dozens of huge ships, more than 100 large and small ships, even in Jiangdong, it is also a big force! Seeing this fleet, Cao Jun at the ferry suddenly raised the alarm!
"Who, what are you doing?" Across the wooden fence, General Cao, who was guarding the port, looked at the fleet, his face full of seriousness!
"Master Jun, we are passing merchants, ready to go to Jiangxia to do business, but it is late, and there is a strong wind on the river, so we have to stop here, and I hope that the military master will be accommodating!" A scholar-like man came out of the cabin, and the smile on his face made Cao Jiang's guard in his heart go away a little!
"Hurry up, hurry up, this is a military place, not a place for you to stay, in case the enemy attacks, you will suffer!" General Cao was ordered to guard the harbor, and he didn't want to make trouble, so he had to drive the fleet away!
"Master Jun, I don't want to stay either, but if my dozens of ships are overturned by the wind and waves, I won't be able to explain when I go back!" The scholar asked the attendant beside him to take out a few white silks and send them forward, and he smiled and said, "We will only stay for one night, and when the wind and waves calm down, we will leave immediately." These things should be given as a small gift to the military master. If we avoid this storm, the Jiangdong Lu family will be grateful! ”
"Are you from the Jiangdong Lu family?" General Cao frowned, he had also heard of the names of the four major families in Jiangdong. Now is the time of Sun Cao's alliance, and he doesn't want to offend the people of Jiangdong!
"Exactly!" The scholar smiled: "Lu Ji, the head of the Jiangdong Lu family, is the uncle below!" ”
"Do you have a credential?" Cao Jiang was quite cautious, he didn't believe the scholar's words very much!
"Next!" The scholar took out a sign from his arms and threw it at Cao Jiang, who quickly reached out to pick it up.
The light and fluttering sign exudes a strange fragrance, which Cao Jiang knows is carved from fine fragrant wood and gilded. This kind of precious brand is generally only owned by large families. In the center of the plaque is engraved a large Lu character and the Lu family crest, indicating the real surname of this wooden plaque. In addition, there is an identity profile behind the wooden card, and even a general image of the licensee, Cao Jiang will not doubt the identity of the scholar after checking!
The wooden card is indeed true, and the scholar is also a member of the Lu family, but the people of the Lu family are not only in Jiangdong, and Liu Zhang also has a surname Lu, who is also a direct son of the Lu family, and this person is Lu Xun. Back then, Lu Xun kept this wooden plaque, but he wanted to commemorate his grandfather who gave him the wooden plaque. Unexpectedly, Jinyue actually used it to dispel Cao Jiang's suspicions. The scholar standing at the bow of the boat showed a hint of nostalgia on his face!
"Since Mr. is from the Lu family, let's stay here for a while! However, when the wind and waves subside, please leave quickly! Knowing the identity of the other party, General Cao was much more respectful, and he ordered someone to return the wooden card, but did not accept the scholar's gift.
"Thank you, Master Jun!" The purpose of the scholar was to stop at the port, and seeing that General Cao agreed, he must express his expression, and ordered someone to bring a lot of cloth.
"Sir, you don't have to! It is forbidden to exploit the people under the command of King Wei, I can't accept these things! Looking at the cloth piled up in front of the camp, General Cao swallowed his saliva, but he couldn't accept bribes in a high-sounding manner.
The scholar smiled and said, "The general is wrong, these things are used to reward the brothers, and they are also very hard to guard against the Qin army here." In order to make their family live a better life, I can only take out these mundane things, and hope that the general will laugh at them! ”
"It's... Then I'll take it! Go a few people and carry those things into the camp! General Cao hesitated for a moment, and said secretly in his heart: It was he who forced it to be sent, and I didn't ask for it, and it didn't violate King Wei's military law, so it should be no problem to accept it!
Watching the soldiers of Cao carry the cloth into the camp, there was a trace of greed in the eyes of the Cao general, these cloths were woven with Ma Jun's improved loom, both precision and quality were better than those woven by the people under Cao Jun's rule. Don't say it's Cao Jiang, even if it's Cao Ying, he will show greed! However, when Cao Jiang observed the cloth, he didn't notice a strange smile on the corner of the scholar's mouth.
On the river, the wind has been howling. When it got dark, Sergeant Cao went back to his tent to rest. As for the fleet outside the port, no one paid attention to it, because the Cao army, who had gained the benefits, really regarded them as the caravan of the Lu family, but he didn't expect that these people were the vanguards of the sneak attack on Jiangling!
"Hurry!" In the middle of the night, the fleet moored outside the harbor made a creaking sound, and from the deep draft of the ships, a group of non-commissioned officers, all dressed in white gauze, quickly crawled out of the deep draft.
When the soldiers were ready, the scholar instructed a big man: "General Gan, the port will be handed over to you." Once you have captured this port, you will go straight to Gangneung. When you arrive, the gates of Gangneung should be open. Don't hesitate, just take people into the city, seize the gates, and I'll answer behind you!" ”
"Rest assured, although the last general is a water thief, he is also quite proficient in land warfare!" The big man grinned, but he looked very hideous, this person was Gan Ning, the general under Liu Zhang!
The scholar smiled: "Don't let the enemy light a beacon fire!" Everything is left to the generals! ”
"Brothers, come with me!" Gan Ning waved the big knife in his hand and rushed towards the port with the soldier.
General Cao, who was guarding the port, would never have imagined that the scholar who was still gentle and elegant in Bai Yueli would turn into a devouring tiger at night. However, even if he could think of it, he couldn't prevent it, Lu Xun's plan couldn't even prevent Guan Yu, how could a deputy general under Cao Ying's command prevent it?
The battle was soon over. Under Gan Ning's strong attack, Cao's army was simply unable to resist. The harbor warden had also wanted to bring someone to light a beacon fire to inform Gangneung. But he didn't want Gan Ning's corporal to be under his command, so he had been waiting on the beacon tower for a long time. When he arrived, he was directly captured, and he didn't even have a chance to take out the flint. However, Gan Ning didn't kill him, and directly escorted him to the scholar.
"Who the hell are you?" Looking at the scholar, Cao Jiang was not too afraid. Defeated and captured, he couldn't think of any other fate for himself except death!
"Didn't I show you the token? I am a member of the Lu family in Jiangdong! The corners of Lu Xun's mouth were hooked, and his face was full of smiles, making his handsome face even more sunny!
"Why did the people of the Lu family attack the port? Is Sun Quan going to be treacherous again! Looking at Lu Xun, General Cao's face was full of anger, being able to be a general in Jingzhou, he had already seen through the essence of Sun Quan! He also thought that Lu Xun was Sun Quan's person!
"I have nothing to do with Sun Quan!" Lu Xun smiled: "That sign is engraved with my name, in fact, I also have a name: Lu Xun!" ”
"One of the generals of the naval army under Liu Zhang, Lu Xun and Lu Boyan?" Cao Jiang looked at Lu Xun in a daze, he really didn't expect that the person in front of him was the prestigious Lu Xun. Since the defenders of Fuguan repelled the Jiangdong army, which was several times their size, Lu Xun's name gradually spread. The port near Jiangdong, how can you not know Lu Xun?
"No, it's down there!" Lu Xun smiled and asked, "Do you still want to live?" ”
"Yes!" Cao Jiang replied without hesitation, but then he said: "If you want me to surrender, don't waste your time!" The king of Wei treats me like a mountain, I would rather die than surrender! ”
Lu Xun smiled: "How boring is it to kill you?" I'll give you a chance to live! In a moment, we will go to Gangneung. When Gangneung is captured, I will let you go. When the time comes, you can go to Yuzhou or Xiangyang! ”
"Let me go?" Cao Jiang asked with some puzzlement; "What the hell do you want to do?"
"You don't need to know that much!" Lu Xun waved his hand, ordered someone to tie up Cao Jiang, put him on a horse, and led the army to Jiangling.
Gan Ning took the first step, and when he arrived at Jiangling, the sky was just dawning, and the gate of Jiangling City was slowly opened. He must not rush to the city gate with a large group of soldiers, otherwise everyone will know that the enemy army is attacking the city. So he ordered all his men to disperse into the city, and finally met at the south gate.
Although Jingzhou faced Liu Zhang's threat, the inventory at the gate of Jiangling was not strict, and Gan Ning and hundreds of soldiers under his command actually mixed into the city with weapons. It didn't take long for a loud roar to come from Gangneung City, it turned out that there were enemy troops outside the city! Gan Ning knew that it was most likely Lu Xun who came, so he immediately led his soldiers to kill the Cao army at the south gate. Before the defenders could react, the south gate of Gangneung was broken!
When the mighty Qin soldiers rushed into Jiangling City with their banners held high, the Jiangling guards knew that they were powerless to return to the sky. But he really couldn't afford to lose Gangneung, let alone lose the reputation of a defeated general, so he raised his sword and killed himself. For such a loyal minister, Lu Xun did not embarrass his body, not only buried him, but also gave his family a pension. But Lu Xun didn't expect that it was his kindness that made the soldiers under the command of the guard surrender with peace of mind!
