(Part 2)

The advancing army was suddenly stopped. For more up-to-date chapters, visit: ШЩЩ.(7)(9)XS.сОМ.

As a wise man, Lu Xun easily guessed the reason.

Zhang Liao was afraid of an ambush.

Here's why.

Lu Xun waited quietly, and soon, Zhang Liao rode his horse over.

Under the muddy road, Zhang Liao's speed on horseback was not fast, but it was quite steady.

Zhang Liao looked at the misty mountain in front of him, looked at Lu Xun, and asked, "Lord Lu, what kind of mountain is this mountain in front of you?"

Lu Xun said: "This mountain is called Cloud Mountain. ”

"Cloud Mountain?"

Zhang Liao was a little stunned.

This mountain is surrounded by clouds and mist, and it is actually called Cloud Mountain.

Lu Xun explained: "Yunwu Mountain is one of the highest mountains in Danyang County, once it rains, the mountain must be covered with clouds and mist, and often you can't see the scene on the mountain, so it is called Yunwu Mountain." ”

Zhang Liao nodded.

It's just that he looked at Yunwu Mountain, but his expression was cautious.

Wu is located in the south of the Yangtze River water town, water canals, flat terrain.

In these places, it is difficult to arrange ambush points.

A rare cloud mountain is likely to be the site of an ambush.

Zhang Liao waved his hand and ordered: "Spread Zhang Han, lead the scouts to explore the road under Yunwu Mountain." ”

"Whoa!"

The soldier immediately went to give the order.

Zhang Han is the commander of the scouts in the army and is responsible for finding out the news.

Lu Xun smiled and said: "General Zhang, since my lord is obedient to the King of Wei, he will not go back on his word." General Zhang doesn't believe in my lord's sincerity?"

Zhang Liaozheng said: "Ben Jiang naturally believes in King Wu, but the heart of the guard is indispensable. As the chief general who leads the troops to fight, it is better to be cautious, what does Lord Lu think?"

Lu Xun arched his hand and said: "General Zhang is worthy of being a veteran, admire!"

Zhang Liao said: "Lord Lu has won the award. ”

Both stood on horseback, shoulder to shoulder.

At this time, he was still waiting for Zhang Han to investigate the situation under Yunwu Mountain.

Zhang Liao suddenly said, "What does Lord Lu think of Wu Guo?"

Lu Xunzheng said: "Located in the south of the Yangtze River, although the army is insufficient, there is a moat on the Yangtze River, which is enough to protect itself." ”

Zhang Liao said: "But now, Wu Guo can't even protect himself. ”

Lu Xun said: "If the state of Wu pours all its strength and unites with the state of Chu, it will attack the state of Wei together. Dare to ask, can Wei Guo stop it?"

Zhang Liao nodded slightly.

Lu Xun's rhetorical question is also reasonable.

Liu Xiu is extremely cunning, and the soldiers under his command are extremely 'elite'.

Once Liu Xiu and Wu were united, Wei would indeed face a predicament and would encounter danger. However, if Wu attacked Wei, it would have to suffer heavy losses in the end, and it would be cleaned up by Liu Xiu in the end, so it was impossible for Wu to join forces with Liu Xiu to destroy Wei.

Zhang Liao asked again, "What does Lord Lu think of King Wei?"

Lu Xun said: "The King of Wei is the hero of the world!"

Zhang Liao said: "Lord Lu is willing to serve the King of Wei?"

This is Zhang Liao's purpose.

Xun You was on the Yangtze River before, and he persuaded Lu Xun, but there was no result.

Now, Zhang Liao came to persuade again.

Once Lu Xun takes refuge in Cao's '', the benefits will be huge. With Lu Xun as the internal response, it is easy to attack Wu County.

Zhang Liao stared at Lu Xun with expectation in his eyes.

Lu Xun shook his head and said: "Loyal ministers are not the second master, Lu Xun is a courtier of Wu State, and he should serve my master." ”

Zhang Liao said: "Lord Lu, you are foolish, you are stupid. ”

Lu Xun said: "It doesn't matter if it's foolish or loyal, it's stupid." ”

Zhang Liao said solemnly: "If Lord Lu is willing to submit to the King of Wei, the King of Wei can guarantee that Lord Lu will serve as the assassin of Yangzhou." ”

The place occupied by the state of Wu was subordinate to Yangzhou.

Let Lu Xun serve as the assassin of Yangzhou, which was discussed by Zhang Liao, Xun You and Cao Pi.

On the one hand, Lu Xun is talented enough to take charge of a state; on the other hand, Lu Xun has a disagreement with the Sun family, and the Lu family is a big family in Jiangdong, so letting Lu Xun take charge of Yangzhou can stabilize the situation and will not let the Sun family resurge.

All things considered, Lu Xun is the most suitable candidate.

Lu Xun was also a little stunned.

Yangzhou Thorn History!

Cao '' really gave a lot of money.

It's a pity that Lu Xun has already stepped on Liu Xiu's ship and has become Liu Xiu's person.

In Lu Xun's view, Liu Xiu occupies Liangzhou, Yizhou, Guanzhong, Jingzhou, 'Jiao' Prefecture and other places, although it is not the core of the Central Plains, but Liu Xiu has become a general trend.

In particular, Cao 'Cao' has repeatedly lost to Liu Xiu.

Under such a premise, Lu Xun is naturally more optimistic about Liu Xiu.

And now, once he hits Zhang Liao hard, he can bring great benefits to Liu Xiu.

He followed Liu Xiu, and what he got may not be less than the history of Yangzhou Thorn.

In particular, Lu Xun would not think that he would be able to hold power as the assassin of Yangzhou. If you think about it carefully, after Cao Cao' seized the state of Wu, even if he occupied Yangzhou and appointed Lu Xun as the assassin, could he really rest assured? It would definitely be difficult to rest assured, and he would send people to guard against Lu Xun.

Lu Xun thought clearly in his heart, but he was silent for a while.

Then, Lu Xun said: "General Zhang, this official is a person loyal to the king, and he will not be 'bewitched' by you." ”

Zhang Liao said: "Lord Lu's loyalty is indeed admirable. ”

Having said so, Zhang Liao was quite confident in his heart.

If Lu Xun was really not moved, he would not hesitate, but would answer directly. However, Lu Xun hesitated for a long time before giving an answer, which shows that Lu Xun was still moved.

As long as Lu Xun's heart is moved, there is room for 'manipulation'.

As soon as Zhang Liao's words changed, he no longer talked about recruiting Lu Xun. He turned to inquire about the situation in Yangzhou, the customs and folk conditions involved, and so on.

Lu Xun knows all these things in his 'chest' and can do it easily.

One question, one answer, very harmonious.

Zhang Liao and Lu Xun 'exchanged' talk, and the more they got to know each other, the more they admired Lu Xun.

The person in front of him is not only insightful in political affairs, but also very thoughtful in military strategy, and he is a person who is both civil and military.

In Zhang Liao's heart, he wanted to win over Lu Xun even more.

Time passed, and nearly an hour later, Zhang Han returned with the scout.

Coming to Zhang Liao, Zhang Han hugged his fists and said: "General Qiyu, Yunwu Mountain has not found an ambush. The road down the hill is also quite wide, and there are no rough and difficult places. The final general determined that there was no ambush in Cloud Mountain. ”

Zhang Liao nodded.

Zhang Han is an old scout in the army and has enough experience.

Zhang Liao believed Zhang Han's judgment.

Zhang Liao ordered: "Order the vanguard army to start advancing." ”

Zhang Han retreated, and after the order was given, the vanguard soldiers at the front began to hurry.

Lu Xun took the soldiers and the vanguard soldiers and continued to walk forward.

Zhang Liao returned to the Chinese army and hurried with Xun You.

Zhang Liao said: "Xun Junshi, the general and Lu Xun have been talking for more than half an hour, and the more they talk, the more they find that Lu Xun can be extraordinary. If we can recruit him, our Wei State will definitely be like a tiger. ”

Xun You said: "General Zhang, don't worry, along the way, there are still opportunities." Even if you can't persuade you to surrender for the time being, after seizing Wu County and taking Sun Quan, won't it be easy to recruit Lu Xun?"

Zhang Liao nodded and said no more.

The two led the Chinese soldiers, and soon arrived at the foot of Yunwu Mountain and continued to walk forward.
