Chapter 481: Greed (Ask for a Monthly Pass!) )

Dingwu Zhonglang General Sun Jun was in a very complicated mood, with both nervousness and excitement, as well as a little grievance and resentment.

Nervous is the three-way army labor expedition, long-term attack, seeing that this rejuvenating army is about to become a disaster, at least it is already a joke, he is responsible for guarding Chenyang, he has a heavy responsibility, once he makes a mistake, it is likely to cause Pan Jun's army to fall into trouble because of food shortages. As a child of the Sun family, he knows very well what Sun Quan, the king of Wu, wants to do, and at the same time, he also knows Pan Jun's status in Sun Quan's mind, and of course he knows how heavy the burden is on his shoulders. Because of this, he was very nervous when he received Chen Shi's warning that Wei Ba had crossed the Xuefeng Mountain and attempted to attack Lipu from the east and get his hands on Chenyang.

He always felt that Wei Ba's counterattack was nothing more than two possibilities: either he took advantage of the barbarians' familiarity with the terrain and made a surprise attack from the mountains and went straight to Chenyang from the west; Either harass the army pursuing Pan Jun along the way, delays his journey, drags him into the realm of food shortage, and makes him collapse without a fight. Both of these approaches are good and have a good chance of success. But he didn't expect Wei Ba to go around to the east of Xuefeng Mountain, and Chen Shi, who was supposed to be stationed in the camp of Xuefeng Mountain, actually chased after him.

Sun Jun felt that there was a problem here, but he was more concerned about the safety of Pupu. Lipu is where the granary is located, and if it is captured by Wei Ba, the losses will be immeasurable. So as soon as he received the news, Sun Jun immediately rushed to Lipu with two thousand elites, strengthened the defense of Lipu overnight, and prepared to meet Wei Ba.

Wei Ba has been very famous recently, and he fled from Yiyuan with one hundred and ten people, and under the pursuit of Buqi and others, he not only did not die. Moreover, the Vietnam War was strong, and Zuihou successfully dragged the three heavy generals of the Wu State, with an army of thirty or forty thousand, and this tenacity alone is enough to make people marvel. Now no one doubts Wei Ba's achievements in Guanzhong and Xiangyang, and the generals of Wu stationed in Jingzhou have unconsciously begun to pay attention to this famous Shu army and prepare for future battles.

Sun Jun was of course no exception, but he didn't expect that he would be going to fight against Wei Ba so soon.

Therefore, he is still a little excited.

Chen Shi said that Wei Ba only had more than 1,000 people, and he was running long distances. There are no heavy ordnance. As long as he has precautions, guards the city, and doesn't give Wei Ba a chance to take advantage of, Wei Ba will have nothing to do.

In other words. Sun Jun is now invincible. With Wei Ba's current strength. It was impossible for him to conquer Pupu, which was guarded by more than 2,000 people, even if it was only a small city. The thought of making the invincible Wei Ba disgraced. Returning home, Sun Jun was naturally a little excited.

However, Sun Jun was still a little aggrieved. Some resentment.

He is a son of the Sun family, and his father and brother have made great contributions, but now that the army is on an expedition, he cannot accompany him, and can only be stationed in the rear. For him, who is eager to make meritorious contributions, this is a very regrettable thing, and he is a little aggrieved because of this. However, it was the other two people who made him even more unhappy.

One is Lu Xun and the other is Chen Shi.

Lu Xun was on his way to Chenyang, and of course Sun Jun knew what he was doing in Chenyang. As soon as Lu Xun arrives, I'm afraid that Pan Jun will also give three points, and people like him will have to give way back. But he didn't have a good impression of Lu Xun, because his brother Sun Huan's untimely death had a lot to do with Lu Xun. If it weren't for Lu Xun's resolute refusal to send people to support when Sun Huan was trapped in Yidao, how could Sun Huan be so seriously injured that he died of illness in only twenty-four years? He has always believed that Lu Xun has an ulterior motive in doing this, and he does not want Sun Huan to become his opponent.

Sun Jun didn't like Lu Xun, and he didn't like to listen to Lu Xun's command.

Sun Jun also didn't like Chen Shi. Although Chen Shi sent someone to report to him, he received other information from the messenger's words. Chen Shi left Xuefeng Mountain and chased to Lipu because the Xuefeng Mountain camp was lost. Wei Ba's ability to cross the Xuefeng Mountain and suddenly appear in Lipu had a lot to do with Chen Shi's incompetence. Now, Chen Shi chased after Lipu, naturally wanting to defeat Wei Ba and atone for his crimes.

There is nothing wrong with this, but it is not kind for him to let Sun Jun guard the city and want to take the credit alone. Wei Ba is now a big problem for King Wu, what it means to defeat Wei Ba, and how much credit it is, all the generals of the Wu army know it. Chen Shi chased after Pupu to grab the credit, which made Sun Jun very unhappy.

Sun Jun sat in the hall, although the morning sun was very bright, but his mood was very gloomy.

A guard walked in with a sweaty messenger. Sun Jun raised his eyebrows and sat up straight.

"What's the matter?"

"General, I was sent by Captain Chen." The messenger saluted respectfully: "The captain has stopped Wei Ba, the two sides are engaged, the captain asks the general to guard the Pupu and prepare for rescue." Wei Ba's troops are fighting very strongly, and although we have a slight advantage in numbers, it is difficult to guarantee that we will not miss the net. ”

Sun Jun's face suddenly sank and he didn't say anything. Chen Shi had 2,000 people, and it was naturally expected to defeat Wei Ba, who only had more than 1,000 people. Chen Shi asked people to send him this letter and asked him to guard the city, which actually means that I want to swallow the war merit alone, Sun Jun, you don't want to come to get a piece of the pie, guard your city, and watch me make meritorious service.

The messenger was gone, and Sun Jun was so angry that he circled the hall a few times. He wanted to scold, but he didn't know what to scold, and these angers were held in his heart, which made him very angry. He wanted to scold Chen, he wanted to scold Lu Xun, and he wanted to scold Wei Ba even more: You arrived in Lipu yesterday, and Weishenme didn't come to attack the city today?

Another hour passed, and when the sun became unable to look directly, Sun Jun received another message from Chen Shi. But the news made his heart flutter.

After a hard battle for half a day, although Wei Ba suffered heavy losses, he still resisted stubbornly, and they were breaking through and wanted to escape back to Xuefeng Mountain. Chen Shi also lost a lot, I am afraid that he will not be able to stop Wei Ba, I hope Sun Jun can send troops to support, not too many, five or six hundred people are enough. Wei Ba was already at the end of his crossbows, and only five or six hundred fresh troops were enough to destroy them.

Sun Jun sneered. He knew very well that Chen Shi Weishenme said this. Five or six hundred people may indeed be enough, but if only five or six hundred people are really sent, then Zuihou's military exploits are nothing compared to Sun Jun, at best it is a reinforcement, and the main credit is Chen Shi. Chen Shi only expressed his personal gratitude to Sun Jun at most, but the credit had nothing to do with Chen Jun.

Sun Jun ignored Chen Shi's behavior and immediately set off with two thousand people. Chen Shi was 2,000 people. He is also two thousand people, Chen Shi has the merit of the first battle, he has the merit of winning the decisive battle, and when he talks about the merit in the future, he will at least not lose to Chen Shi.

Sun Jun went out of the city, for fear that he would be late, Chen Shi had already settled the battle and led the army to hurry. As soon as he walked more than ten miles, the scouts came to report that the east bank of the river had found a battlefield on both sides. There were a large number of corpses. But the enemy is no longer there. Judging from various indications, although Chen Shi paid a heavy price, he finally won the victory, and Wei Ba was fleeing into the mountains. Chen Shi may have chased after him.

The scout's news was quickly confirmed by Chen Shi's messenger. Chen Shi had indeed defeated Wei Ba. However, Wei Ba has not been caught yet. Wei Ba, with hundreds of remnants, was fleeing into the mountains. Chen Shi asked Sun Jun to catch up immediately and intercept Wei Ba. Wei Ba is best at escaping. Once you escape into the mountains, it will be difficult to catch him.

When Sun Jun heard this, he was overjoyed and urged the army to advance quickly. They crossed the river and saw the battlefield on the east bank of the river. Looking at the corpses and blood stains that had not yet had time to be cleaned up, Sun Jun suddenly realized and pouted secretly. From the casualties on the battlefield, he could tell that Chen Shi was lying. Chen Shi was attacked by Wei Ba, but Wei Ba's strength was not enough, Chen Shi successfully counterattacked, and Wei Ba could only retreat.

Sun Jun pursued all the way, and kept seeing corpses along the way, the battle was very fierce, and both sides were exhausted, no wonder Chen Shi would ask him for help. He really couldn't swallow such a big feat, so he had to let Sun Jun get a piece of the pie. As long as he has the slightest way, he will not ask Sun Jun for help.

Sun Jun soon saw Chen Shi's battle flag. The battle flag cracked a big gap, it looked very embarrassed, and the number of people was not large, roughly glanced, it was about five hundred and six people. Sun Jun couldn't help but want to laugh, two thousand people chasing more than a thousand people, how could they lose so much, Chen Shi was really incompetent.

Sun Jun ordered to speed up, bypassed Chen Shi's remnants, and rushed to Wei Ba, who was about to flee into the mountains, judging from the shadows, it was probably more than a hundred people.

Seeing that Wei Ba was in front of them, the morale of the Wu army, who had traveled more than thirty miles, was greatly boosted, and they seemed to see a mountain of gold, full of liliang, and rushed to chase after Wei Ba. Seeing that he couldn't escape, Wei Ba stopped running and rushed over reflexively.

Sun Jun was overjoyed, straightened up on horseback, drew his sword and roared: "Kill-capture Wei Ba-"

"Capture Wei Ba alive—" The two thousand Wu soldiers roared in ecstasy, like a tide rushing over.

"Shoot!" There was a loud shout from the other side, and more than a hundred remnants shot a rain of arrows.

"Raise your shield! Charge! Sun Jun reined in his horse, slowed down, and commanded the soldiers to charge forward, but he slowly stayed behind with the personal guard battalion. Although he really wanted to rush forward and kill Wei Ba personally, he knew better that it was not his task to kill the generals and capture the flag, and commanding the overall situation was what he should do.

Sun Jun commanded the army to outflank it from both flanks, wanting to encircle and annihilate the more than 100 remnants led by Wei Ba in one fell swoop and fight a beautiful battle of annihilation. Under the command of the rousing war drums, the Wu army was like an eagle with open wings, encircling the two wings. Although they ran for a day, the great achievement was just around the corner, and they forgot their fatigue one by one, gave full play to their potential, and ran wildly all the way.

At this time, Chen Shi chased after Sun Jun. Chen Shi rushed over with a few personal guards, and before he could walk in front of Sun Jun, he scolded angrily: "Sun Jun, do you want to steal the credit?" ”

Sun Jun sat on horseback without looking back, calmly commanding the army to surround Wei Ba. It wasn't until Chen Shi walked behind him that he glanced back and couldn't help but be stunned: "Who are you?" ”

The general in front of him is definitely not Chen Shi, Chen Shi is a middle-aged man over forty years old, and the general in front of him who is angrily pushing his personal guards to the ground and chattering is a young man.

The young man smiled: "Don't you want to arrest me, why don't you know me?" ”

Sun Jun didn't react for a while: "Who are you, I want to arrest you?" ”

The young man suddenly made a move, grabbed Sun Jun's belt, pulled his neck off the horse, pressed it to the ground, put a short knife on Sun Jun's neck, grinned, showed a mouthful of neat white teeth, and said with a smile:

"I'm Wei Ba!" (To be continued......)
