Lu Xun sighed for a long time, so he could only do so, and copied the content on the paper, but he didn't dare to cheat. Wang Baoyu immediately sent someone to Sun Quan, and then he immediately asked Gan Ning to be invited into the city.

Lu Xun tried his best to remain calm, deduced that he was not feeling well, handed over the military power, and let Gan Ning temporarily lead the post of commander of the three armies. Lu Xun took the initiative to let Xian's move, Gan Ning did not doubt it, but he pretended to be confused and accepted it as soon as he pushed the boat, so that Lu Xun secretly didn't see it at him.

This matter is not difficult to understand, Lu Xun was originally a white-faced scholar, and he had just debuted not long ago, except for a strategy to cross the river in white, he did not have much military exploits, but became the governor of the three armies.

And Lu Xun is less resolute and hearty, self-assured and talented, speaking according to scriptures, beating around the bush, not refreshing, and suspected of being a showman, he is not treated by a reckless military general like Gan Ning.

Not only Gan Ning, but other soldiers were not convinced by him. On the contrary, most people feel that Gan Ning has gone from death to life and has fought countless battles, which is more suitable for the position of metropolitan governor.

After a period of time, Lu Xun was trapped in Yiling City, eating, drinking, and sleeping, and people followed him in front of him, not giving him a chance to be alone.

Lu Xun was annoyed and ashamed, and only hated that he had no martial arts, and he couldn't escape at all.

After arranging Lu Xun's affairs, Wang Baoyu sent people out of the city and rewarded the army of Eastern Wu, and then took Mo Qianxun with him, led 5,000 soldiers and horses, together with Gan Ning's 100,000 army, all the way north to meet Xiahoudun's army.

Sun Quan was still waiting for the good news that Lu Xun had captured the Yi Tomb, and finally received Lu Xun's feedback, but the content in it surprised Sun Quan, only to see that it was written: The lord is above, Xun led the people of the three armies, don't dare to slack off, how can he come to the Yi Tomb, suddenly feel seriously ill, it is difficult to unify the army, and he is deeply frightened. Cao's army is strong, Jingzhou is in danger, there can be no momentary slackness, General Gan is full of civil and military forces, and he is highly respected, so he can temporarily take the post of governor. Xun temporarily recuperated in Yiling, and then reported to the lord.

Sun Quan was stunned, he didn't say that he was going to attack Yiling, why did he go there to recuperate? There must be a reason for this, and I can't literally analyze the deep-seated reason, so I asked Gu Yong to discuss.

Gu Yong only glanced at it a few times, and then came to a conclusion: "This must be Wang Baoyu who saw through the plan and trapped Lu Dudu in Yiling." ”

"Wang Baoyu is so bold!" Sun Quan was annoyed.

"The lord is angry, this is all Lu Xun's conceited fault, in my opinion, Wang Baoyu can only be stable, not trivial!" Gu Yong hurriedly said.

"I don't want to do it, why don't he listen to me." Sun Quan sighed.

"I eavesdropped on the burning of Bowang and Xinye back then, all of which were the plots behind Wang Baoyu. Cao Cao knew talents, regardless of previous suspicions, repeatedly promoted him to the knighthood, and then got his help, only to have Xiliang defeated Ma Chao, Hanzhong surrendered Zhang Lu, and Wang Baoyu led the army deep into the barbarians, won many battles, and his reputation was known all over the world. Gu Yong's old face turned red, and he only said a rough idea in one breath.

Sun Quan was silent for a long time and said: "I already know about this matter, I am annoyed that he has two things, one is annoyed that he did not marry my sister, which caused my sister to be old and unmarried; Second, he was annoyed that he sent troops to rescue Guan Yu, causing our army to lose soldiers and generals. ”

"The county lord has lived in Yiling for a long time, although he has not been married to Wang Baoyu for a hundred years, in addition, life is also comfortable. As for Guan Yu, he is Wang Baoyu's righteous brother, and his sister Guan Ting and Wang Baoyu are quite affectionate, and it is reasonable to come to the rescue. Gu Yong said.

"I'm worried about it, I'm afraid that he will be in alliance with Liu Bei, but Yiling will become a big trouble."

"The two of them look like each other!" Gu Yong said affirmatively, "Back then, because of the matter of the county lord, Wang Baoyu and Liu Bei had turned against each other. After Wang Baoyu surrendered to Cao, Liu Bei was more suspicious, and after Wang Baoyu returned, he had to trap him in Chengdu. Later, Liu Bei sent troops to Hanzhong, Wang Baoyu did not help, and Ma Liang, the Taishou of Yiling, was transferred to Xichuan, and he also turned against Wang Baoyu, which shows Liu Bei's uneasiness. ”

"Liu Bei is used to winning people's hearts, and Baoyu is also a person in temperament, it is difficult to say that the two will not release their previous suspicions and repair them."

"Not necessarily, the day of worship is already a false and wrongful act, how can we talk about deep feelings!"

"Hehe, it makes sense. According to the public's will, what should it be? Sun Quan was persuaded by Gu Yong to feel a lot better.

"Just don't know about the secret plot of Yiling, go along with the water, block Cao Jun first, and then discuss a good strategy."

Sun Quan listened to Gu Yong's opinion, and immediately made a table, officially ordering Gan Ning to temporarily take the post of metropolitan governor, and the three armies and Wang Baoyu fully cooperated to control Cao's army. As for Lu Xun, take good care of your illness and recover as soon as possible.

Lu Xun thought that although he had a handwritten letter, Sun Quan must have known that he was forced to do so, and he had been waiting in Yiling City for Sun Quan to order a strong attack on Yiling and rescue him.

It's a pity that Lu Xun's popularity is not very good, no one speaks for him, and Sun Quan didn't turn his face because of him and Wang Baoyu. Lu Xun's news is closed, but he calculates the time, and he also knows the current situation, and he laughs at himself because he is fortunate not to sacrifice his life for martyrdom.

At this time, Wang Baoyu had already led his army to the bank of the Han River and stationed in Maicheng. Sun Quan's letter has not yet arrived, but Gan Ning solemnly stated that he is willing to obey Wang Baoyu's orders.

Gan Ning and Fan Jinqiang also have a good relationship, and Wang Baoyu is deeply gratified by the unity and unity of the top and bottom. Immediately ordered to go down, let Ma Yunlu and Han Dang together, lead an army of 20,000 to the west, stationed fifty miles away from Maicheng, and always pay attention to Cao Ren's movements.

Xiahoudun's army had reached the north bank of the Han River, and Wang Baoyu immediately raised his tent and held a pre-war meeting to discuss the enemy's strategy.

Gan Ning's attitude is very simple, one word, hit! Anyway, the troops are equal, so there is no need to be afraid at all.

Mo Qianxun did not agree with Gan Ning's idea, Xiahoudun was a fierce general in the world, not to be underestimated, and being able to use the least number of troops and achieve the greatest results was the way to use troops.

Whether to fight or not to fight is not something that can be avoided by thinking about it or not wanting to, and the key depends on the development trend of the situation. The focus of everyone's argument was mainly on whether to take the initiative to cross the river to attack, or let Xiahoudun come over and fight again? There are pros and cons.

If he crossed the river to fight, Xiahoudun was on the defensive, and he must have been prepared in advance, and the area along the river was wide, so it was easy to divide troops to defend it, and it was difficult to break through it in one fell swoop.

However, if you wait for Xiahoudun to come, once Maicheng is lost, then the war will soon burn to Yiling, and you will fall into a passive situation if you are not careful.

Mo Qianxun insisted on his idea, he still had to wait for Xiahoudun to attack, hold on to Maicheng, and then divide it and encircle it and annihilate it, with the river in the rear, so that Xiahoudun had no way to retreat. And if you cross the river and be held hostage by it, there is really no way back.

In the end, Wang Baoyu obeyed Mo Qianxun's Jianyì, ordered to prepare more materials for defending the city, and asked Gan Ning to lead an army of 20,000 to the east side, just waiting for the arrival of Xiahoudun's army.
