"Hmm..." A muffled snort sounded, and Sun Quan, who was knocked unconscious, finally woke up slowly, and the first thing he said when he woke up was: "Who?" Dare to beat me, tired of life? ”

"If your subordinates offend the lord, please punish the lord!" Lu Meng had been kneeling on the ground for a long time, and he had been waiting for Sun Quan to wake up!

"You're you again? Never mind! Get up! After the anger subsided, Sun Quan regained his wisdom, how could he not understand that Lu Meng had good intentions? Although Lu Meng gave him a little, if he punished Lu Meng in this way, it would probably make everyone under his command feel cold!

"Thank you, my lord!" Lu Meng looked at Sun Quan in some surprise, he really didn't expect to be able to escape. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"If there's a next time, watch out for your dog's head!" Seeing Lu Meng's face full of disbelief, Sun Quan was a little unhappy, he secretly gritted his teeth in his heart and said, "Am I such a mediocre master who does not distinguish between right and wrong?" ”

"Don't dare!" Lu Meng was also taken aback, if it weren't for the critical situation and Sun Quan's insistence on refusing to leave, he wouldn't have done it stupidly! However, although he said so, if this happened again, he would definitely do it again. The loyalty of the ancients made them regard the Lord's surname as more important than their own!

"That's it!" Sun Quan didn't want to dwell on this matter, he frowned and asked, "How is the battle?" ”

"Lord Qiqi, in two days and one night, our army has lost a total of 150,000 soldiers and soldiers, 50,000 minor and serious injuries, more than 30,000 people who cannot go to the battlefield, and countless damaged weapons!" Lu Meng didn't dare to deceive, and immediately presented the battle report, and Sun Quan felt distressed for a while!

"Alas! Lost countless Koto sons again! Sun Quan closed his eyes and leaned on the couch, and asked after a while, "How is Wuling City?" ”

"The subordinates are incompetent!" Lv Mengdao; "On the way to Wuling, I was stopped by the enemy general, and I was really defeated and retreated. It is reported that the enemy army attacked Wuling and broke the city in just one hour! ”

"What?" Sun Quan's eyes widened, and he sat up sharply and said: "Although Wuling City is not very tall, there are 30,000 guards of our army among them, even if Liu Zhang has an army of 100,000, it is impossible to break through it without half a month's effort." Liu Zhang's army came from afar, and he couldn't bring a large number of siege equipment, how could he break through Wuling in an hour? ”

"Lord, how dare I talk nonsense?" Lu Meng sighed: "Not only that, but the information I got also said that all the cavalry under Pang Tong's command was bringing!" ”

"Cavalry?" Sun Quan said angrily: "You don't want to tell me that Pang Tong has given wings to the war horse!" ”

"This..."Lu Meng smiled bitterly: "There are no wings, but the soldiers who escaped said that the cavalry under the command of Pang Tong built a dirt slope with sacks, and rushed to the head of the city along the soil slope!" ”

"Dirt slope?" Sun Quan closed his eyes and imagined the situation at that time, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "I see, it seems that our army needs to raise the city wall!" ”

"Lord, is it useful to raise the city wall?" Lu Meng was a little puzzled and said: "No matter how high the city wall is, as long as they pile more sacks, they won't be able to rush to the top of the city?" ”

"Stupid!" Sun Quan said: "If the slope is too steep, even if the cavalry can still rush to the head of the city, there will be great losses!" The Wuling city wall is only three or four zhang high, so it is naturally easy to rush, if it is increased to thirty or forty zhang, I don't believe that Liu Zhang's cavalry can still rush up! ”

"Thirty or forty?" Lu Meng was taken aback, thirty or forty zhang is more than a hundred meters, can that kind of city wall be built by people?

"Silly! I'm just giving an analogy! Sun Quan was a little speechless about Lu Meng's sluggishness, he shook his head and said: "The city wall of Chang'an is more than ten zhang, and there is a moat nearly ten zhang deep outside the city. ”

"But Chang'an and Luoyang were the former capitals of the Han Dynasty, how can we have such a city in Jiangdong?" Lu Meng was shocked, he didn't want Sun Quan to let him build a city like Chang'an and Luoyang!

"Humph!" Sun Quan glanced at Lu Meng and said, "How do you know that there will be no capital in Jiangdong?" Moling is now our military office, maybe it will be the capital of our army in the future! Ziming, you arrange manpower to build Moling for me into a city as strong as Chang'an and Luoyang! No! It is stronger than Chang'an and Luoyang! ”

"Than... Stronger than Chang'an and Luoyang? Lu Meng looked at Sun Quan dumbfounded, wanting to build a fortified city like Chang'an and Luoyang, the money and grain consumed is not a small amount, plus the people and servants, it is likely to make Jiangdong unstable!

"What? Having difficulties? Seeing Lu Meng's sluggish face, Sun Quan said very unhappily: "Could it be that Liu Zhang can cultivate a strong city, and I can't repair it, or do you think I can't compare to Liu Zhang?" ”

"The subordinates don't dare!" Lu Meng half-knelt on the ground and said; "Lord, now that our army is at war with Liu Zhang, if we build a city on a large scale, it will be distracted! It's better to wait to defeat Liu Zhang and build a city again! ”

"Defeat Liu Zhang?" Sun Quan asked with a bitter face: "Ziming, do you think our army still has a chance to defeat Liu Zhang?" ”

"Lord, why not?" Lu Meng said firmly: "Although our army was defeated by Liu Zhang this time, it is really a lose-lose situation!" I dare to say that when our army withdrew, there would never be more than 20,000 soldiers who could stand up in Fuguan! ”

I have to say that Lu Meng does have a set of military affairs, and he can see through the situation in Fuguan at a glance. It's a pity that although the Fuguan Pass has been breached at that time, the Jiangdong Army is not capable of receiving it! If Zhang Fei is allowed to kill in front of Sun Quan, Lu Meng will not dare to guarantee Sun Quan's safety! Compared with Fuguan, it is naturally Sun Quan's surname that is more important!

"Then wouldn't our army be able to continue to attack Fuguan?" Sun Quan's eyes lit up, and the idea of taking advantage of his illness to kill him had in his heart.

"Lord, I'm not a subordinate to pour cold water on you, and now although Pang Tong has left Fuguan, no one knows where he went. With Pang Tong's surname, since he chose to leave, it shows that Fuguan is impregnable, and it is impossible for our army to capture it in a hurry! Lu Meng looked at Sun Quan's face cautiously, for fear that he would get angry, but Sun Quan's face was surprisingly calm!

"You're right, it's really not a good time to attack Fuguan!" Sun Quan sighed, closed his eyes and said, "Ziming, write to Cao Ying and tell him that Pang Tong will appear in Jiangdong, and he will know what to do!" ”

"Lord, you will mislead Cao Ying by doing this!" Lu Meng frowned, if Cao Ying knew that Pang Tong appeared in Jingzhou, he might desperately attack Tiger Prison Pass and Wuguan. If Pang Tong returns to help in time, Cao Ying's loss must be not small!

"Alas!" Sun Quan sighed and said; "Ziming, the losses of our army are too great, if we don't let Cao Ying suffer some losses, the difference in strength between our army and Cao's army is too great. Even if we defeat Liu Zhang, we will be very passive! ”

"Lord, we are allies with Cao Jun, if they suffer a loss this time, will they still believe us in the future?" Lu Meng was a little reluctant, because he understood the important surname of the Sun Cao Alliance!

"Lu Ziming, do you think I've been too merciful lately?" Seeing that Lu Meng once again disobeyed his orders, a cold light flashed in Sun Quan's eyes, and the idea of wanting to teach Lu Meng a lesson came to his heart!

"The subordinates don't dare!" Lu Meng was shocked, Sun Quan's attitude just now really made him a little carried away. Hearing Sun Quan's cold words, he remembered Sun Quan's ruthlessness and hurriedly knelt on the ground!

"Just do as I say!" Sun Quan didn't even look at Lu Meng, but just ordered coldly.

"Subordinates obey!" His back was already soaked with cold sweat, Lu Meng didn't dare to disobey the slightest, he quickly stood up and prepared to write a letter to Cao Ying!

"Wait!" Before Lu Meng went out, Sun Quan suddenly stopped him and said: "Send a copy of our army's battle report to Cao Ying, don't let him find any excuse to say that our army has violated the alliance!" ”

"Yes!" Lu Meng's spirits perked up, he understood that Sun Quan had accepted his opinion, and hurriedly went down to write a letter.

"This Lu Meng..."Looking at the back of Lu Meng leaving, Sun Quan shook his head with a smile, and said in his heart, he still likes Lu Meng's confidant and favorite general, but he feels that Lu Meng's ability is not enough, and his heart is not firm enough, and he needs to be honed!

Leaving Sun Quan's big tent, Lü Meng hurriedly returned to his military tent and rewrote two copies of the battle report, one to Wuguan and one to Hujiaoguan, and at the same time told Cao Ying the whole process of Pang Tong's sneak attack on Wuling, so as not to suffer a loss. However, it is unknown whether Cao Ying will thank Jiangdong!

Under the Tiger Prison, Cao Jun had been here for nearly two months, but since Liu Zhang arrived, Cao Ying had not attacked again. Between the two armies, although there was a slight friction, there were no large-scale clashes. Cao Ying was waiting, waiting for the good news from Sima Yi and Jiangdong, but he didn't expect to get a good news, but it was Lu Yi who made him feel a little pity. However, he believes that Lu Yi will not surrender, because Lu Yi's family is in his hands!

"Everyone, take a look!" Cao Ying summoned everyone, threw the information in his hand on the case and said, "Liu Jiyu is amazing!" Even the war horses rode up to the head of the city, but we faced a tiger prison pass, but we didn't have the slightest idea! Can you give us an explanation for this appearance? ”

"This..." The strategists looked at each other, but Lu Bu stood up and said: "Prime Minister, I have a word, I don't know whether to say it or not!" ”

"Say!" glanced at Lu Bu, Cao Ying didn't refuse him to speak, after all, he had already surrendered, even if Cao Ying didn't like him!

Lu Bu sneered: "Since Liu Zhang can ride the war horse to the city, why can't we?" Didn't what Liu Zhang did give us an inspiration? Gather the soil into a mountain, go straight to the head of the city, our army also has cavalry, and I am the cavalry general! Prime Minister, I would like to ask an army to go straight to the Tiger Prison, and please ask the Prime Minister to fulfill it! ”

"This..."Cao Ying hesitated, and returned the claws and fangs to the tiger, this kind of tiger relic, Cao Ying didn't want to do!

"Prime Minister!" Lu Bu knelt on the ground and said, "The last general knows that because of the previous events, you don't believe me, and I don't expect you to trust me. But Liu Zhang and I have a hatred for taking my wife, I just want to borrow you an elite soldier to prove my ability! ”

"Fengxian, hurry up!" Cao Ying smiled; "It's not that the prime minister doesn't trust you, but the prime minister wants to think about his subordinates! You're right, we can indeed emulate Liu Zhang's approach, but have you ever wondered what the price of emulating Liu Zhang will be? Soldiers, war horses! Liu Zhang has countless high-grade war horses to consume, do we have them? If we want to defeat Liu Zhang, we have to be cautious! In the future, don't say such things again, you must remember that you don't suspect people in your own way! ”

"The Admiral understands!" Cao Ying's words were indeed very heartwarming, but Lu Bu knew that this was a half-truth. Of course, Lu Bu wouldn't be stupid enough to expose Cao Ying!

After Lu Bu retreated, Cao Ying looked at the crowd: "Feng Xian's opinion is very good, he learns the method of defeating the enemy from the enemy, and he is very satisfied, even if his idea is not very practical!" You are all the great sages of our army, can't you give this prime minister a good idea? ”

"I'm incompetent, and I ask the prime minister to punish him!" The ministers really had no idea, so they had to bow down and confess!

"Alas!" Cao Ying sighed and said, "Write a letter to Zhongda and ask him if there is a good way!" ”

"Yes!" Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly retreated, Cao Ying suddenly felt a little depressed in the tent, and walked out!

Looking at the Tiger Prison Pass not far away, it was not the first time Cao Ying had stopped here, he still remembered that twenty years ago, he was still a young man in the prime of life, and he was also stopped here, and the person who stopped him back then was Lu Bu! Now, he is stopped here again, but he has lost the vigor of the past. He didn't know if this was his starting point or his end, so he could only stare at Guan with a complicated look. To be exact, he was staring at a familiar figure in the Tiger Prison, even if he didn't see it very clearly!

Under Wuguan, Sima Yi also received the Jiangdong battle report, and when he got the battle report, his hands trembled a little! He didn't know that the method of gathering soil to attack the city was brought by Liu Zhang from the later generations, and he thought that Pang Tong had come up with it himself. Although this is only a simple method, you can see the infinite wisdom! Because many inventions are a flash of inspiration and make incredibly complex things simple!

"Strategist, why are you here?" After receiving Cao Ying's letter, Wei Yan wanted to show it to Sima Yi immediately, but after looking for a long time, he didn't find Sima Yi, so he was a little anxious. However, soon a junior colonel told him Sima Yi's whereabouts!

"Wen Chang, is it wrong for you to say that we are right with Liu Zhang?" Sima Yi put his hands behind his back, and a gust of wind blew, making his clothes whirring!

"Strategist, what's right or wrong in this world?" Wei Yan smiled: "Aren't you still worried about Pang Tong's gathering of soil to attack the city!" Rest assured, this siege method can only deal with some small cities, and it is useless against Shangjian City! ”

"You're thinking too simply!" Sima Yi shook his head and said, "Since there can be one way, there can be countless ways, Pang Shiyuan is really my fierce rival." Back then, when Liu Zhang compared me with Wolong and Fengxiao, I was still a little unconvinced, but now I have to accept it! ”

"Strategist, whether you accept it or not, you have to find a way to defeat Liu Zhang! My eldest brother's big enemy, I can only count on your help, do you remember what you said at the beginning? Looking at Sima Yi, Wei Yan's eyes showed a cold light. If Sima Yi really loses confidence, he doesn't mind killing Sima Yi...
