Chapter 259: Returning the favor to Wu

During this period of residence in Sun Quan's mansion, Sun Quan's courtiers lingered near Qin Lang and others from time to time, discussing matters about Liu Bei's attack on Wu.

They revealed intentionally or unintentionally, Qin Lang couldn't listen to it if he wanted to.

This must have been what Sun Quan meant.

Changying used to live in Dongwu, and she still has some feelings for Dongwu, especially since most of her relatives are here. The ministers kept discussing things about the Sun Liu War in their ears, and looking at them anxiously, Changying couldn't help but feel compassion.

Seeing that Qin Lang didn't make any moves, Changying couldn't help it, so she went to Qin Lang and asked him for help.

"Qin Lang, can you help Jiangdong for the sake of my face? I have lived in Dongwu for many years, and I really can't bear to see the people here ruined when Liu Bei's army attacked. ”

Guan Yu and Liu Bei and Zhang Fei Taoyuan formed a righteous relationship, the friendship between the three was deep, Guan Yu died at the hands of Eastern Wu, and Liu Bei would not let go of Wu Guo.

Faced with Changying's pleading, Qin Lang wavered slightly.

In fact, even if Changying didn't come to ask Qin Lang for help, Qin Lang was planning to help. These days, someone among the ministers inadvertently mentioned Zhou Yu, which reminded him of some past events. At the beginning, Zhou Yu had a life-saving grace for them Jiuyao, and he was unable to repay the kindness before he died.

When Zhou Yu was dying, Jiuyao and the people promised him that if Dongwu was in trouble in the future, they hoped that Jiuyao could help the Sun family get through the difficulties, even if it was to repay the friendship that Jiuyao owed him.

Zhou Yu seemed to have met what would happen at that moment. Jiuyao didn't want Zhou Yu to have regrets under Jiuquan, so he agreed at that time. What Zhou Yu entrusted to them was to help the entire Eastern Wu Sun family, and it was possible that they would be enemies of other forces. At that time, their strength was far less than now. It's hard to help.

However, Qin Lang has already entered the grandmaster level, and Zixuan has achieved the body of an immortal and has also become a grandmaster. The two of them made a move, which was enough.

"But have you thought about it?" Sun Quan's words faintly revealed a little excitement.

He ordered his ministers to fan the flames in the ears of Qin Lang and the others, expecting that they would come, and this day was earlier than he guessed.

Qin Lang bowed slightly, and said: "Zhou Yu of Eastern Wu had saved us Jiuyao before, and before he died, we promised that if Wu was in trouble, we would definitely help." At this time, it is a great disaster, and we naturally have to fulfill our promise to Zhou Yu. ”

Sun Quan knew that there was also Zhou Yu's credit in this.

It's a pity that Zhou Yu died young, otherwise how could I, Wu Guo, be bullied at this moment, and I need to ask for help from others in a low voice.

Sun Quan's thoughts were not revealed, and when he saw Qin Lang agreeing, he said, "That's very good." ”

"It's just that you have a lot of good people under you, and you have some way to stop Liu Bei's army, why do you need our help?"

Sun Quan sighed, his face was sad, and said: "Indeed, Lu Xun has already come up with a countermeasure, but the scout in front came to report that Liu Bei was escorted by two grandmasters, so I had to ask for your assistance." A master at the grandmaster level wants to take the head of our army's soldiers, which is as easy as a snap. ”

This is just like Sima Yi was worried that Qin Lang would threaten the Wei State.

"And what do you need us to do?"

"Assist me Lu Xun, the governor of Wu State, and frustrate the spirit of Liu Bei's army!" Sun Quan clenched his fists and slammed them on the table.

It can be seen that he is extremely dissatisfied with Liu Bei's attack.

Subsequently, Qin Lang and the others went to the military camp and met Lu Xun, the governor of Wu.

Changying and Lu Xun are old acquaintances, and as soon as they met, they greeted each other and said a lot of things.

Qin Lang casually glanced at the soldiers who came and went in the army, just from the pace and demeanor, he could see the quality of the army, and nodded secretly.

Lu Xun clasped his hands into fists and said to Qin Lang and Zixuan slightly apologetically: "I'm sorry, I haven't seen Changying for many years, but I don't want to snub the two." ”

During the conversation with Changying, Lu Xun knew that Qin Lang and Zixuan helped Wu Guo because of the relationship between Changying and Zhou Yu, and the two masters at the grandmaster level, if he accidentally offended, Sun Quan would not be able to explain it.

And with them, Liu Bei's Grandmaster Guard, he didn't have to worry.

Qin Lang and Zixuan didn't think there was anything, and it was rare for them to see Changying so enthusiastic about people other than Jiuyao, or rather, sincerely.

Changying was behind Lu Xun, scratching her head, and looked at Qin Lang and the others with some embarrassment.

"It's okay, you haven't seen you for so many years, it's normal to talk more. ”

Qin Lang and Zixuan both said that it was understandable.

"Sun Quan said, General, you have already come up with a countermeasure. ”

"Yes, follow me. Lu Xun led the three of them into another military tent.

There was only a huge sand table in the military tent, and the complex terrain was covered with various flags.

Lu Xun pointed to a forest and said to Qin Lang: "The heat has been unbearable recently, and the Shu army has marched far and wide, and the officers and men in the army are exhausted. According to the scout from the front, Liu Bei stationed his army in this woods to escape the summer heat. ”

"There are so many trees in this area, it's really difficult to invade on a large scale. Qin Lang glanced at the surrounding arrangements and frowned.

He followed Cao Cao, and he was a descendant of the Qin Dynasty, and he had never read less military books, and he had also been on the battlefield, so he knew a little bit.

"It is not feasible to invade on a large scale, but because of the weather, there has been no rain for many days, which makes the forest very dry. If we light a fire around here, the fire will spread quickly. Even if Liu Bei's army reacted, it was too late to extinguish the fire, so he had to retreat. ”

"Do you want us to help you light the fire?" besides, aren't you worried that the fire will spread here?" At the other end of the woods was where Lu Xun's military camp was located.

Talking to smart people is effortless.

"After all, this strategy is intended for surprise attacks, and anyone in the army who comes close to it will be able to be discovered, and it will be difficult to escape if discovered. The ploy loses its meaning. Lu Xun explained, "Of course, we will also dig a barrier in advance, which also requires two people to cover for the officers and men in the army." Even if the wind changes in the middle of the way, it won't hurt us. ”

If you fight, you can only take it by surprise and make Liu Bei unable to parry, so that it is feasible.

"Once successful, Liu Bei will definitely send the guards, and as a general, your life is not guaranteed. Without the army under its command, there is no longer any threat. ”

Lu Xun clenched his fists, bent down to salute, and said solemnly: "If such a thing happens, then you can only rely on the two of you." ”

Qin Lang hurriedly helped him up, "We won't break our promise if we promise, and the governor can rest assured." ”

Immediately afterwards, Qin Lang and Zixuan each led their men and horses, and quickly dug out a huge ravine without alarming Liu Bei's army. The two of them were always on the lookout for movement around them, providing cover for the army.
