Guan Yu was furious, and immediately led the army to storm the city, Cao Ren's soldiers were not afraid of death, bows, arrows and stones poured down, blocking Guan Yu's strong attacks again and again.

After fighting for three days and three nights, Guan Yu still failed to defeat Fancheng, but lost nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses, and Cao Ren's loss was not small.

However, Cao Ren still showed an undying and insistent attitude, and in order to show his confidence, he simply carried stones with the soldiers shirtless, and the flesh and blood on his arms and chest were blurred, which further boosted morale.

"General, if you are not afraid of the dead, you will not be invincible, please return to Nanjun and make plans in the future." Yi always felt uneasy in his heart, and said.

"Cao Ren has been trapped by me, Quansheng is close at hand, how can he withdraw his troops at this time!" Guan Yu waved his hand to disagree.

"General, it's been a long time since Nanjun, lest Jiangdong take advantage of it."

"I heard the news that Lu Meng, the governor of Jiangdong, was seriously ill and had no choice but to resign, and Sun Quan actually ordered Lu Xun, an unknown person, to take over this position. It can be seen that after Zhou Yu and Lu Su passed away, there was no one in Jiangdong! ”

"After Lu Xun is the wang clan, Jiangdong is quite powerful and cannot be underestimated."

"Definitely!" Guan Yu said confidently: "I have heard of this person a little, Sun Quan's brother Sun Ce is his old father-in-law, and he is nothing more than a nepotistic person. ”

"Even so, but Lu Xun has no military achievements, how can he take over the position of the governor of the capital, he must have a genius." Yi said in an affirmative tone, in fact, it is not unreasonable, after all, Sun Quan has not reached the point of being dizzy with old eyes, and he can't take the military plane to make a big scene.

"Wizards? Hmph, even if Lang Lu Su is reborn that week, I am not afraid, let alone Lu Xunhu? ”

"General!"

"I have made up my mind, I swear to take Fancheng, don't say more." Guan Yu waved his hand impatiently, and Yi could only retreat in a sneering manner, but he sighed for a long time and was worried.

Besides, on the Jiangdong side, Lü Meng was ordered by Sun Quan to raise 150,000 troops, wanting to take advantage of the emptiness of Nanjun and take it in one fell swoop.

Originally, Lu Meng was full of confidence in this, but the return of the horse made him difficult, Guan Yu set up a beacon tower along the river, and transmitted signals at all times, so he had no chance to get close to Nanjun at all.

Lu Meng is indeed sick, but he is not as strict as the rumors outside, but there are fewer opportunities to show up for cultivation. Lü Meng will stay in Lukou, worrying day and night, but there is no good way to break the enemy, time waits for no one, if Guan Yu wins, return to Nanjun, a plan will be in vain.

There is a gentle and elegant scholar in Lukou City, named Lu Xun, who is six years old Chinese New Year's Eve today, and is in charge of the family surnamed Lu, and is quite prestigious. Lu Xun's father served as the governor of Jiujiang, and his wife was the daughter of Sun Ce in Jiangdong.

Lu Meng also knew that this person was depressed and unwell, so he didn't pay attention to him. But on this day, Lu Xun took the initiative to come to the door to pay a visit.

"I heard that General Lu was sick today, so I came to visit and prepare a little courtesy." Lu Xun arched his hand and asked people to offer gifts, but it was a jar of old wine.

Hmph, I really don't know how to be polite, I know that General Ben is sick, but this wine is drunk by a patient? Looking up at Lu Xun again, he was dressed as a scholar, his writing was weak, and he spoke softly, so Lu Meng was not interested in him, thinking that he was just an ordinary gentleman, just taking the opportunity to curry favor.

Besides, there is no way to attack the enemy, Guan Yu may withdraw his troops back to Nanjun at any time, the opportunity is fleeting, how can he still be in the mood to drink with others? So Lu Meng waved his hand coldly and said: "Occasionally, I feel the wind and cold, He Lao asked, and the doctor told me not to drink." ”

Lu Meng's attitude was clearly an order to expel the guest, but Lu Xun did not leave, stared at Lu Meng, and said with a smile: "In my opinion, the general Meng Wuhou has a heavy responsibility, and he can't take advantage of the opportunity, and his heart is depressed!" ”

Hearing Lu Xun's words, Lu Meng was slightly stunned, feeling that this person also had some ability, and he could see his troubles. However, this is not a big skill, and it is difficult to say that it may have been told by others in the army.

Lu Meng coughed, and said stiffly: "Fighting is only a good opportunity, I am really sick!" ”

"The general's voice is like a bell, his eyes are blazing, he must be fine, right?" Lu Xun said casually and seemingly casually.

"Don't you know some medical skills?" Lu Meng asked with a stunned neck.

"Although I am not the Holy Hand of Xinglin, there is a party that can make the general heal immediately, do you dare to give it a try?" Lu Xun said with a smile.

They are all smart people, and they can be seen through at one point, Lu Meng immediately guessed that Lu Xun was here to offer advice, and hurriedly retreated left and right, and bowed his hand respectfully: "The right person is lazy, don't be responsible, please ask for a good prescription!" ”

Lu Xun opened the wine jar unhurriedly, and immediately overflowed with fragrance, and poured a glass for Lu Meng, who was a little anxious and urged: "This is a good recipe?" ”

Lu Xun smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass, and said: "The medicine of this recipe is the wine in the cup, and please drink this cup to the general." ”

Oh? Lu Meng looked down, the color was as pure as amber, the wine was a good wine, and he drank it all when he raised his neck.

Lu Xun said at this time: "The general's illness is only the beacon tower by the river." I have a plan to make it impossible to raise fire along the river, and the soldiers of Nanjun will be captured. But is the right remedy? ”

Lu Meng's heart was full of joy, and when he met a confidant, he sighed: "Bo Yan's words, if you see me in my heart, I hate not to see each other as soon as possible!" ”

"Guan Yu thinks that he is a hero, and he foolishly thinks that the world is invincible, and Jiangdong only cares about the general's ear. It is better to resign under the pretense of being seriously ill, send another person to take over the army, and then order this person to repair Guan Yu, saying that the alliance is good, and it will definitely not be defended at all. Lu Xun said.

Lu Meng was dedicated to defending Sun Quan, and he took his official position very lightly, nodded and asked, "This plan is very good, but how to enter Nanjun?" ”

"There are not many guards in the beacon tower, the general can recruit people to row boats, and use a brigade of soldiers, all dressed as white-clothed merchants, hiding swords and clothes, and only going to Yiling to trade. Lu Xun said.

"Haha, it's really a good strategy, it is said that Zhuge Liang is smart, and Bo Yan is still on it." Lu Meng laughed, and suddenly felt that his body was relaxed for a while, and he was extremely relaxed.

"It's a pity that Liu Bei is suspicious, otherwise, he would definitely see through this plan." Lu Xun didn't hold it up, and said modestly.

Lu Meng adopted Lu Xun's opinion, and the two of them talked freely about the wine, tirelessly all night. Subsequently, Lu Meng wrote to Sun Quan to resign, told Lu Xun's strategy, and wrote in the letter: "In the past, Zhou Gongjin recommended Lu Zijing, and later Zijing recommended Meng, and Meng recommended one person, so that he was ten times better than me, and Lu Xun and Lu Boyan were also!" ”

Although Sun Quan also knew Lu Xun, he was still hesitant to appoint a person who had never fought a war as the governor of the capital, and Gu Yongjin said: "In the past, Liu Bei invited Zhuge Liang, who had to cultivate Wolong, to have today's territory, and the lord should not miss out on good talents." ”
