Lu Xun watched a group of generals who were eager to fight leave, and exhaled lightly. Now that Liu Bei is attacking the whole country, Jiangxia has insufficient soldiers and horses, and the elite cannot be compared with Liu Bei's long-fought division, not to mention that the Shu army has won even battles and its morale is high, so it is really not a good time to send troops for a decisive battle. However, all the generals in the army wanted to fight, and they often blamed themselves for being afraid of the enemy in private, and hesitated not to fight. Han Dang is the third veteran, Zhou Tai twice rescued Wu Hou, Gan Ning is the first fierce general in Jiangdong, the idol of reverence in the eyes of the sergeant, but he can't understand his own painstaking efforts, if it weren't for the sword given by Wu Hou himself, I'm afraid that these three people would have already made trouble.

Lu Xun took the bamboo slip and slowly spread it out, although his eyes were fixed on the words on it, his thoughts flew far away. Liu Bei is worthy of being the hero of the world, in just a few days in the White Emperor City, he took Zhao Shu's Jing system and Fazheng's Sichuan military power into his own, and gathered no less than 100,000 troops from two places to attack, and his intention was very strong. The army went down the river, took Xiakou in the tenth day, and killed Zhou Ping, which seemed to be really overwhelming. But he dared to come at this time of crisis, of course, to repay Wu Hou for his great kindness, Kan Ze recommended the life of the whole family, and more importantly, he saw Liu Bei's three hard injuries.

Liu Bei got rid of Fazheng and took back Jingzhou, just when the spring breeze was proud, he won all the way, and he was even more indispensable, and he looked down on Jiangdong Yingjie. got Xia Kou and did not take advantage of the victory to attack, but returned to the army for the winter, this is not to put the generals of Eastern Wu in his eyes, he is a scholar, and he is not in the eyes of Liu Bei. The soldiers will be bored, and this one will be defeated. Zhao Shu has been in Jingzhou for a long time, he has won the hearts of the army, the leader of Fazheng Sichuan, one of these two people is idle at home, and the other is killed, the hearts of the two armies of Sichuan and Chu are not turbulent? If you win, you will be happy, and if you only need a slight defeat, the natural army will be disheartened, and the people's hearts will not be aligned, and this will be the second defeat. The Sichuan army is far away, how can the grain and grass continue? In the land of the four wars in Jingzhou, the war has just ended, how can there be surplus grain to supply the 100,000 troops? The road to Shu is difficult, and the transportation of military grain is inconvenient, and it is also a third defeat. With these three defeats, why worry about Liu Bei not breaking?

What's more, Kong Ming, who is the strongest in Shu Han, and Zhao Shu are not in the army, so what are they afraid of? Kong Ming was just starting out, and a few fires burned Cao Jun's heart and became famous all over the world. Zhao Shuxi took Shuzhong, transferred to Huainan, and then won Hanzhong, and then fought with Lu Ziming in Jingzhou, all of which were more victories and fewer defeats, and the strategy was not under Zhuge . Today, the opponents he admires are these two people and Wancheng Sima, but it's a pity that Liu Bei has two of them, but they don't dare to use them. Thinking of this, Lu Xun couldn't help but shake his head slightly, as if he was sighing for Liu Bei, and as if he was regretting that he didn't meet his ideal opponent.

"Governor, it's not good." Lu Xun was thinking about it, but was interrupted by a shout, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Pan Zhang, the Chinese army's guard. Lu Xun was very surprised when he saw him looking flustered, but he asked unhurriedly, "Why are you so panicked?" ”

Pan Zhang hurriedly hugged his fists and said, "Only a sergeant came to report, and General Gan privately ordered his military horses and went out of the city to fight a decisive battle with Guan Ping." ”

"Nonsense." Lu Xun took the case and said angrily: "General Gan is sick, and he hasn't been out of the account for many days, why did he suddenly go out of the city to tear up?" ”

Pan Zhang saw that Lu Xun, who had always been gentle and polite to the generals, suddenly became angry, first stunned slightly, and then said: "I don't know this general, but at this time, I am afraid that General Gan has arrived at the city gate, please make a decision quickly." ”

Lu Xun snorted heavily, and said in a deep voice: "Prepare the horse quickly." After speaking, he stepped forward and took the Wuhou sword placed on the sword stand, and said silently in his heart: Gan Xingba, do you really want me to try the sword? He casually hung the notebook around his waist, turned around and strode out of the tent. Pan Zhang and a few of his own soldiers had already prepared their horses. Lu Xun jumped up and waved his hand: "Come with Bendu." "Pick up your horse and come to the gate.

Lu Xun was worried that Gan Ning would go out of the city, and knew that Zhou Tai, who was guarding the city, was also dissatisfied with him, but he was afraid that he would not try his best to stop Gan Ning, so he whipped a few more whips on the horse, and a few clear blood marks suddenly appeared on the snow-white horse's buttocks. It's a pity that when Lu Xun arrived at the city gate, it was already empty, and there were only a few weeds under the city gate that were breaking the ground and sprouting, how could there be half a shadow of Gan Ning? Lu Xun still didn't give up, and tried his best to open his eyes, there was a sergeant above the city gate, but it was obviously Zhou Tai's subordinate. At this time, Zhou Tai pretended not to see his arrival, and took care of himself to "patrol" the edge of the city.

Lu Xun sighed silently in his heart, knowing that he was late, he turned his head to Pan Zhang and said, "Quickly go and inform Ding Feng and Xu Sheng, the two generals, pick up the military horses and come here, and follow me out of the city to pick up General Gan." Pan Zhang hurriedly agreed and left. Lu Xun said to a soldier next to him, "Go and call Zhou Tai to answer with this governor." ”

A moment after the sergeant left, he brought Zhou Tai with him. Zhou Tai privately let Gan Ning out of the city, there was a dereliction of duty, and when he saw Lu Xun coming above the city tower, he was already nervous in his heart, and he was summoned by Lu Xun at this time, and he had to come hard. Lu Xun looked at Zhou Tai with a grim face, on weekdays, Lu Xun knew that his prestige was not enough to serve the public, so he was polite to all the heroes and veterans. Looking at Zhou Tai at this time, he also had to be annoyed, it was his dereliction of duty that made him strategically passive.

Not to mention Liu Bei's army in central Sichuan, even the Jingzhou soldiers and horses under Guan Ping's department also have 30,000 or 40,000, all of which are elites cultivated by Yu Ban, and the Jingchu soldiers who fought with Zhao Shu are more than double those of Gan Ning's department. Under the hard work, Gan Ning is sick again, how can he take advantage? The morale that has finally rested, if there is another defeat, will this Jiangxia still be able to hold it? As soon as he thought of this, Lu Xun felt more and more that Zhou Tai's sin was unforgivable, and said coldly: "Zhou Tai, are you guilty?" ”

Zhou Tai looked at the saber on Lu Xun's waist and knew that it was given by Marquis Wu himself, so he could act cheaply, cut first and then play. Looking at Lu Xun's face at this time, he recalled that since Lu Xun came to Jiangxia, he had been dissatisfied with this scholar and governor, and he also said a lot of unpleasant words in private. If he dies in the battle formation, the horse leather shroud, Zhou Tai is also fearless, but if he is beheaded on the spot, he will not be wronged. Thinking of this, Zhou Tai couldn't help but ooze a little cold sweat on his forehead, and replied: "The last general doesn't know what the governor means?" ”

Lu Xun knew that this was not the time to be held responsible, but Zhou Tai and the others would not follow the order, and if they did not take this opportunity to kill their prestige today, it would be more and more difficult to command the three armies in the future. made up his mind at the moment, and said in a deep voice: "The general is on duty to guard the city gate today, and there is no general order from the governor of Bentu, why did he let Gan Ning's troops go out of the city?" ”

"This," Zhou Tai was speechless, not knowing how to justify himself. It is certainly a felony for Gan Ning to go out of the city to fight without permission, but instead of stopping him, he opened the door to send him off, and his crime was not light.

"Someone." Lu Xun saw that Zhou Tai bowed his head and was silent, so he shouted: "Zhou Tai is derelict in his duties, he cares about his grace, and drags me down and beats a hundred military sticks to set an example." "Lu Xun, as the governor of the capital, as soon as the order came out, although the sergeant next to him was afraid of Zhou Tai's bravery, he had to step forward together.

"The last general will not be convinced." Although Zhou Tai didn't dare to resist, he shouted repeatedly: "The last general is not convinced." ”
