"I miscalculated again" Luling Taishou Mansion, Sun Yi took the information sent by the spies, was stunned in his heart, and sighed, he didn't expect that he still fell for Lu Rui's plan, it turned out that Lu Rui did not set a trap in the crocodile's mouth at all, but his own troops in the crocodile mouth were insufficient, in order to delay time, so he was just suspicious.

Originally, Sun Yi had the opportunity to recapture the crocodile mouth, and then destroy the crocodile mouth to prevent Lu Rui's army from stationing, but now Lu Rui not only occupied the crocodile mouth, but also camped on the high ground northwest of the crocodile mouth, as long as Lu Rui is willing, the army can go north at any time and capture Anxian County, as long as Anxian is broken, Lu Rui's army can go straight to Chaisang County.

"Brother don't worry, the terrain from Anxian to Chaisang County is rugged, even if Lu Rui's army marches, I'm afraid it will take more than a month to arrive, as long as our army holds out for three months, in the summer, our advantage will be obvious." Sun Shao comforted Sun Yi on the side, summer is the weapon of Sun Jun, as long as it is summer, Cao Cao can use not many soldiers and horses, the northerners are not good at water warfare, only Jingzhou soldiers are available.

"Well, now that's the only way, it's not so easy for Lu Rui to capture Anxian, after all, the old general Cheng Pu is stationed in Anxian, let's discuss how to unite Shixie and expel the army of Wumanxi back to Wumanxi, this army is here, it is always our big trouble." Sun Yi nodded, now his main task is to contain Lu Rui's 50,000 army and reduce Sun Quan's pressure in Chaisang.

In the crocodile mouth barracks, in the commander's military tent, Lu Rui sat on the main seat, looked at the secret letter sent by Shi Xie, and smiled slightly, it seems that this time the destruction of Sun is really God's help Lu Rui. Shixie told Lu Rui that Sun Quan planned to escort all his relatives to Luling, and then Shixie sent troops on the condition. After defeating Lu Rui, he returned Shi Xie's eldest son, and Shi Xie decided to take the plan and send troops to Luling to raid Luling City.

"Zihuan, Cangshu, look, this is Shixie's plan!" Lu Rui handed over Shixie's question to Cao Pi and Cao Chong. Shi Xie's plan was very simple, as long as Shi Xie led his troops into Luling, Shi Xie would launch a surprise attack. At that time, Luling will be at your fingertips.

"Brother Rui, it seems that Shi Xie is really a character, the words are all about how to seize Luling City, and there is no intention to save his relatives, it seems that Shi Xie has decided to treat his son and brother as sacrifices." Cao Chong shook his head. Brutes can be ruthless and unrighteous, but people can't be too ruthless and unrighteous.

"Each side of the princes has their own difficulties. We cannot measure the actions of princes by human affection. Since Shi Xie has decided to raid Luling City, then we must cooperate with Shi Xie. Shamoko, how is our boat built? Lu Rui glanced at Shamoke, and saw that Shamoke didn't care about Lu Rui and the others discussing political affairs, but had been gnawing on the big pork leg beside him.

"Brother-in-law, rest assured, there are also a lot of rivers in our Wuman River. Building a bamboo boat is a skill that every man in our Wumanxi must know, five people can build a bamboo boat within ten days, and after half a month, the bamboo boat of 50,000 troops will be built! Shamoko nibbled on a large pork leg. While answering Lu Rui.

"What's going on with the crocodile's mouth? Do you have a solution to those crocodiles? "If the army of Wumanxi wants to attack Luling from the water, they must deal with the crocodile near the crocodile's mouth, which is a big thing that can eat people.

"Brother-in-law, don't worry, our Wuman Creek has a poison that specifically drives away crocodiles, as long as it is thrown into the water, the crocodiles will not dare to approach our ships easily, as long as they sail out of the three-mile land, they will go out of the territory of the crocodiles." Shamoke confidently replied to Lu Rui that he had a way to deal with crocodiles.

"Yes." Lu Rui nodded, controlling the beasts in the mountains, the evil Jiao in the water is the housekeeping ability of the alien races in the Lingnan area, just like the Mulu King in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the animals controlled in various places are different, Shamoke is so confident, there must be no big problem.

In the Poyang Lake Water Village, the expression of Lu Rui's raid on the crocodile mouth also reached Zhou Yu's military tent, and at the same time, there was another expression on the table, which was Sun Quan's decision to threaten Shixie's people with Shixie's people.

"Grand Duke, everything is ready, and we can leave at any time." Just when Zhou Yu was deep in thought, Tai Shici entered the barracks and reported to Zhou Yu that everything was ready and Zhou Yu could send troops.

"Well, what's going on over there?" Zhou Yu nodded, Tai Shi Ci has always made himself very relieved.

"Back to the Metropolitan Governor, General Lu has agreed to the Metropolitan Governor's suggestion and led 5,000 soldiers to stay in Poyang Lake to contain Lu Dai's naval army."

"Okay, I know that Bo Yan will not refuse, Bo Fu has a good son-in-law!" Zhou Yu looked at the saber on the table, and thought of his sworn brother, Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong!

"Grand Duke, we are acting without permission, my lord?"

"Ziyi is afraid?" Zhou Yu smiled slightly, took out a piece of Baijuan from his arms, and wiped the saber in his hand.

"The last general has never been a person who is afraid of death, but if the governor does this, I am afraid that there will be a gap in the lord's heart, and the governor can actually live in peace with the lord." Tai Shici is also a politically minded general, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu's death knot lies in the military power, as long as Zhou Yu hands over the military power and is only a strategist, he will play a greater role by Sun Quan's side.

"Ziyi, do you remember this saber?" Zhou Yu polished the saber in his hand and handed it to Tai Shici.

"Of course I remember, this is Bo Fu's sword, and Bo Fu used this sword to defeat me that day!" Tai Shi Ci took the saber, as if he had met an old friend, carefully stroked the saber with his hand, cherished it very much, and recalled the days with Sun Ce in his heart.

"The philosophy of the Lord and I is different, and the philosophy of Bo Fu is also different. I'm just trying to fulfill Bo Fu's wish, as for life and reputation, I don't care anymore, Ziyi, let's do something for our old friends! Zhou Yu patted Tai Shici and smiled slightly.

"The last general understands, and the last general is also willing to do one thing for his old friend!" Tai Shi Ci and Zhou Yu glanced at each other and laughed.

Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, more than half a month is gone.

"Report to the general, the reinforcements of Shixie Taishou have arrived!" Early one morning, Sun Yi and Sun Shao were discussing the military account in the conference hall.

These days, Lu Rui's army of 50,000 has no intention of going north. Every day, patrols and ships are intensified near the crocodile's mouth, and according to the progress, Lu Rui's ship should be built.

"Brother, Shixie's army is here, should we let him garrison outside the city and not enter the city?" When Sun Shao heard that Shi Xie was coming, he asked how to place Shi Xie's army.

"This?" Sun Yi listened to Sun Shao's words and hesitated. Sun Yi received a secret letter from Zhou Yu a few days ago, in which Zhou Yu reminded Sun Yi to pay attention to people's hearts and guard against people's hearts. In fact, it is an allusion to Shixie. But Shi Xie's current identity is always an ally, or an ally dependent on Sun Quan, if Shi Xie's army is not allowed to enter the city directly, then it is easy to cause misunderstanding, after all, people send troops to help. And you let the family live outside the city?

"General, the last general has a suggestion. Available for the general's reference. Just when Sun Yi hesitated. Sun Yi's Overseer Concubines stepped forward.

"What's your plan?"

"The general is worried that Shixie has two hearts, and entering the city will cause a crisis in the city's defense. The last general suggested that Shi Xie should enter the city with his personal guards, and the rest of the army could be placed in the old city of Luling. In this way, Shixie's heart can be appeased, and secondly, Shixie can meet his family and better serve our army. Fei Lan proposed a plan to Sun Yi to achieve both, and Luling was divided into a new city and an old city. The new city is the city where Sun Yi is now stationed, which is a defensive place selected by Zhou Yu to connect the north and south passages. The old city of Luling is on the high ground in the east of the new city, and the city is not big. Accommodating tens of thousands of troops is still not a problem, and the facilities of the old city are still there, so there is no need to worry about supply.

"Okay, it's a good idea, I'll leave this matter to you. You go and arrange all the affairs of the old city, and let Shi Xie's army live in the old city tonight. Sun Yi nodded, but what Fei Lan proposed was a good way, so that even if Shi Xie was in Luling City, it would not set off any big waves.

After listening to Sun Yi's arrangement outside the city, Shi Xie did not raise any objections, and let his deputy general lead the army into the old city with the concubine, and he entered Luling City with his personal guards, Sun Yi held a grand dinner for Shi Xie, thanking Shi Xie for leading the troops to support Sun Yi.

"Brother Rui, it seems that Shixie has arrived, and the lights in Luling City are bright, so he should be welcoming Shixie's arrival." On the high slope of the crocodile's mouth, Cao Chong and Lu Rui were drinking wine on the hillside. These days, Cao Chong is here to observe the situation of Luling City, generally at midnight, Luling City is already completely dark, and now the lights can still be seen in Luling City, indicating that there is a grand banquet, except for Shixie, there will be no one else.

"Yes, it looks like Shixie's envoy is also coming, let's go back to the barracks!" Lu Rui deliberately didn't sleep tonight, just waiting for Shi Xie's messenger.

"Okay, Brother Rui!" Cao Chong cleaned up and followed Lu Rui down the mountain. As soon as he returned to the barracks, Cao Pi told Lu Rui that Shixie's envoy had arrived.

"You are the messenger of Shixie?" Walking into the military tent, Lu Rui saw a scribe dressed as a Han scholar, a scribe wearing a robe that did not fit his body.

"Yes, the villain's name is Ghost Slave, and he is the commander of the personal guard around Shi Xie's guard."

"Ghost slave?" Lu Rui was stunned for a moment, looking at him, he was obviously a literati, so he would take such a name?

"Isn't it strange that Hou Ye is the life of a villain? The villain is a wizard in Jiaozhou, who can transform into all kinds of laymen! After saying that, the ghost slave waved his hand, and he turned into a shirtless warrior.

"It turns out to be another Zuo Ci!" Lu Rui snorted disdainfully, ancient magic, the Cao family has seen a lot.

"It seems that Master Hou and all the sons are capable people, and the villain is ugly." The ghost slave had just finished covering up his magic tricks, and when he saw that Lu Rui and the others were not surprised, he knew that he had made a mistake, and it seemed that these tricks could not bluff people.

"You also have to have the ability to sacrifice ugliness, this skill can't scare us, and you can still get it by fooling ordinary people. By the way, what's going on with Shi Xie's Taishou side? ”

"Back to the Marquis, Lord Taishou lived in the new city of Luling, and the army was arranged in the old city of Luling."

Subsequently, the ghost slave told Lu Rui about Shixie's arrangement. Shixie and the army were separated, obviously Sun Yi's guard against the plan, Shixie decided to plan the plan, let Lu Rui send troops to attack Luling three days later, when Shixie will design to let Sun Yi bring out the sergeants to fight, when the garrison in the city is empty, Shixie has his own way to open the gate of Luling and attack Luling.

"Let go of me, let go of me, I'm not a spy. I'm here to surrender. While Lu Rui was discussing the details of the attack on Luling with Shi Xie's envoy, Shamoke led several soldiers and escorted a spy into the commander's tent.

"Shamoko, what's going on?"

"Hehe, brother-in-law, I caught a sneaky person, who should be a spy of the enemy army, but he said that he came to surrender, and I don't know if it's true or not, so I brought it over." With that, Shamoko threw the spy away. Thrown on the ground.

"The villain has seen Hou Ye, I don't want to see him for many years, Hou Ye is still the same, and he still plays against Xu Taishou on the Wangjiang Tower in Xuzhou, and the villain still remembers it clearly." The spy was thrown by Shamoko. He fell to the ground, his eyes glaring at the people in the tent. Then saluted Lu Rui.

"You are?" Originally, Lu Rui was a spy caught by Shamoke without knowing it. But he said something about Wangjiang Tower, which made Lu Rui curious, could it be that this person knew himself?

"The villain Fei Lan is a native of Danyang, who originally served as a member of the army under Sheng Taishou, and then the Sun clan invaded Danyang. The villain and his fellow villager Dai Yuan were forced to serve the Sun family, and now they are the superintendent of the army in Sun Yi's army. Offer a plan to break the city and avenge the old master! Seeing Lu Rui asking about himself, the spy hurriedly told Lu Rui about his life experience, and came here to avenge the old master.

Who's going to see it? Wearer? Lu Rui read these two names in his heart, and suddenly remembered that this is the person who designed to kill Sun Yi in history, it turned out to be the doorman of Danyang Taishou, after Sun Ce pacified Danyang, he asked Sun Yi to garrison Danyang, and Sun Yi reused Yu Lan in order to win people's hearts.

It's just that Lu Rui's crossing has made some changes in history, at that time, in order to show favor to Cao Cao, Sun Yi had just taken office, and the defenders of Danyang were transferred back to Chaisang by Sun Quan, in order to show favor to Cao Cao, Sun Yi was not killed by Yan Lan for this reason.

"I see! You are from Danyang, what evidence do you have, and if you want to join our army, you can convince this Marquis with just one strategy? Although Lu Rui is already sure in his heart that this person is a concubine, he still has to test it.

Fei Lan intended to surrender to Cao Jun, so she was naturally prepared, and she first presented the household registration book on the Luling Taishou Mansion to Lu Rui, and then presented the defense map in Luling City to Lu Rui. Show your loyalty.

Fei Lan then suggested that Lu Rui take Shi Xie's army in Luling, and Yu Lan would design Sun Yi and Shi Xie to fight, and then Lu Rui could sit and reap the benefits of the fishermen.

"Lord Fei, your calculations are really high, but do you know the relationship between Shixie and Lord Hou?" Yu Lan talked endlessly about how to separate Sun Yi and Shi Xie's strategy, and at the same time came up with a lot of obscene tricks to hurt people, using Shi Xie's family to cause Shi Xie's dissatisfaction.

Cao Chong and Cao Pi knew the identity of the ghost slave, and they both sat on the side and remained silent, watching Fei Ran tell his strategy like a fool, but the ghost slave on the side couldn't stand it, and used Shi Xie's family as a chess piece, wouldn't this look down on the people of Jiaozhou?

"Who are you?" Fei Lan was talking, but was interrupted by the ghost slave, Fei Lan glanced at the ghost slave, in the commander's military tent can talk like this, must be a master.

"The villain is a ghost slave, not an adult, he is the personal guard commander of Lord Jiaozhou Taishou Shixie!" The ghost slave glared at the concubine in displeasure, and any loyal person would be unhappy to hear that someone had arranged his lord in this way, and the family of the calculating lord would be unhappy.

"Huh?" Fei Lan was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted. It turned out that Shixie did not come to rescue Sun Yi, but joined forces with Lu Rui to plan Luling together.

"It turned out to be Lord Shixie's personal guard, Lan was reckless, offended, and asked the ghost commander to forgive me, Sun used Shi Xie's family to threaten, it was really an unkind person, Lan was willing to rescue Lord Shi Xie's family to show his loyalty!" Fei Ran was very good at observing words and feelings, and hurriedly proposed a decision to show loyalty.

"Do you know where Lord Shixie's family is being held?" Lu Rui was stunned for a moment, now the information in Luling City is unknown, and it is difficult to rescue Shixie's family, but with the information of Yu Lan, it is different.

"Master Hou, Lord Shixie's family members are all imprisoned in Sun Yi's backyard, in order to guard Lord Shixie's family, Sun Yi and Sun Shao have sent confidant generals to guard them, the villain is not talented, and the peripheral guard is the villain who is responsible." Fei Lan looked at Lu Rui with a smile, as the Governor of the Governor's Army, he was responsible for the perimeter of the Governor's Mansion.

"Oh? Are you sure you'll be able to rescue your family? When Lu Rui heard the description of the concubine, he was overjoyed, he really had nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it. This person has been lurking by Sun Yi's side for a long time, and he must already be a confidant, so he is even more sure of rescuing Shixie's family.

"Master Hou rest assured, as long as there is chaos in the city, I can be sure to rescue Lord Shixie's family."

"Okay, this matter will be handed over to you, as for the raid on Luling, we have to re-plan. When the time comes, Concubine Lan will cooperate with Lord Shixie to attack Luling. ”

"Master Xie!"

At this time, in Luling City, Sun Yi opened a bag given to him by Zhou Yu, which was ordered by Zhou Yu to be opened after Shixie arrived.

"Brother Xian, do you know what to do?" Sun Yi handed over Zhou Yu's bag to Sun Shao, Sun Shao looked at it, and suggested that Shi Xie's son and brother should be separated, and if Shi Xie changed, use a counter-strategy!

"The Metropolitan Governor is really powerful, and this plan can be guaranteed to be foolproof. Brother, brother will go and arrange it immediately! Sun Shao arched his hand and left the study. (To be continued......)
