Chapter 737: It's not too late to attack the heart
In the port outside Yong'an City, tens of thousands of Wu troops were already ready to go, just waiting for Lu Xun's order.
However, Lu Xun's official order to go out has not been delivered to them.
What is Lu Xun waiting for?
He was waiting for the return of the pioneer Zhu Huan.
Before Zhu Huan left, Lu Xun had privately confessed two things to Zhu Huan.
If the results of those two things can satisfy Lu Xun, then Lu Xun will lead the army to set off.
Lu Xun didn't wait too long, and Zhu Yi returned to Lu Xun from the starry night outside the state mausoleum city.
Seeing Zhu Yi's face returning so quickly with joy, Lu Xun guessed the result of the battle of Zhouling.
Sure enough, I saw Zhu Yi bow to Lu Xun with his head held high:
"My father has taken the state mausoleum city for Dawu!"
As soon as Zhu Yi's words fell, all the Wu generals present showed joy on their faces.
"Asai!"
Unconsciously, all of you Wu will give Zhu Huan a congratulations.
After Lu Xun heard Zhu Yi's words, he was also happy in his heart.
But Lu Xun still asked carefully about the specific process of the first battle of Zhouling.
Lu Xun asked, but Zhu Yi didn't dare to slack off.
Then Zhu Yi told Zhu Huan about the capture of the state tomb, and gradually told it in 1510.
When Zhu Yi said that the formation of the Wu army was disturbed by the strong wind, Lu Xun's face showed a thoughtful look.
Lu Xun hurriedly interrupted Zhu Yi and asked:
"Wang Hong, the general of the state mausoleum, but did he take the initiative to lead the army to attack?"
Zhu Yi noticed that this problem seemed to be very important to Lu Xun, so Zhu Yi immediately responded:
"Yes!
Wang Hong originally wanted to attack our army halfway through."
Then Zhu Yi continued to talk about the development that followed.
In fact, for Lu Xun, in the case of knowing the result, the follow-up development is not so important.
What Lu Xun cared about was the question he had just asked Zhu Yi.
Others may think that when the strong wind disturbs the formation of the Wu army, it may be that the heavens are helping the Han army.
But in Lu Xun's view, this is not the case.
Heaven may be the one who helps.
The fact that the gale disturbed the formation of the Wu army made Lu Xun judge a fact.
Even when he is about to set off, Lu Xun will not be 100% at ease with Mi Yang.
The reason why this is the case is really Mi Yang's past examples, which proves that Mi Yang has too many tricks.
There are so many that people can't dare to be confident that they can fully guess his thoughts.
Taking advantage of the scattered formation of the enemy's army, so as to attack halfway is the common sense of the art of war.
But if Mi Yang was using a trick to lure the enemy, then even if the strong wind disrupted the formation of the Wu army, Wang Hong would not attack against common sense.
Wang Hong is Mi Yang's friend, and to say that Wang Hong was kind to Mi Yang in the battle of public security that year.
It is not bad that Mi Yang is extremely cunning, but his reputation for affection and righteousness is as strong as Liu Bei.
Based on the relationship between Mi Yang and Wang Hong, if Mi Yang is cheating, he will definitely arrange a safe retreat for Wang Hong in advance.
And with a safe way out, no matter what happened in the outside world, Wang Hong didn't need to go out of the city.
Today's common sense has not been violated, but it has made Lu Xun feel at ease.
Thinking of this, the smile on Lu Xun's face became thicker and thicker.
Lu Xun turned to Zhu Yi and asked, "Where is Wang Hongren? I have something to ask him."
Lu Xun wondered if he could find out some military secrets that he didn't know from Wang Hong's mouth.
But Zhu Yi's next answer made Lu Xun furious.
Zhu Yi changed his arrogant posture and said to Lu Xun hesitantly:
"Wang Hong was executed by my father a few days ago!"
Hearing that Wang Hong was actually killed by Zhu Huan, Lu Xun became angry in front of the generals for the first time.
"Bastard!"
Lu Xun directly took the case.
Seeing that Lu Xun was angry, Zhu Yi was frightened
Hurriedly leaned over.
In order to calm Lu Xun's anger, Zhu Yi said all the words that Wang Hong insulted Zhu Huan and Sun Quan.
After hearing Wang Hong's words, all the Wu generals present were indignant.
Wang Hong's mouth, why is it so poisonous?
But after listening to Zhu Yi's explanation, Lu Xun did not stop his anger.
The angry Lu Xun pointed his finger at Zhu Yi and reprimanded:
"You have fallen for Wang Hong's scheme, Wang Hong is bent on seeking death!"
"It's a pleasure for your father to slash Wang Hong with a knife, but has he thought about the consequences?
It is true that Wang Hong has a way to die, but he indulges in insults in order to provoke your father and in the name of his loyalty.
Wang Hong can die, but he can't die on the day our army captures the state tomb, let alone in the name of loyalty.
Do you know how the people of Jingzhou will view our army when Wang Hong's death spreads throughout Jingzhou?
The people of Jingzhou will regard Wang Hong as a hero and us as butchers!
It is not difficult to take the land of Jingzhou, but winning the hearts of the people of Jingzhou is the key to our army's foothold in Jingzhou!"
Lu Xun really didn't expect that he had already told Zhu Huan that Zhu Huan could still commit such a stupid thing.
After reprimanding Zhu Yi, Lu Xun sat down helplessly.
Wang Hong's begging for death is using a strategy to attack his heart.
If the news of Wang Hong's death is allowed to ferment in Jingzhou, and if Wang Hong's name of loyalty is allowed to be deeply planted in the hearts of the people of Jingzhou, then Mi Yang, who has already won the hearts of the people, will be even more powerful.
It is impossible for Lu Xun to sit idly by and watch this kind of thing happen.
The next moment, Lu Xun decisively ordered:
"The whole army boarded the ship and marched to the state mausoleum!"
...
The first thing Lu Xun did when he came to the state tomb was to summon Zhu Huan to reprimand him severely.
can be remembered that Zhu Huan has a meritorious role in capturing the city, and Lu Xun did not punish Zhu Huan in the end.
After reprimanding Zhu Huan, Lu Xun ordered people to investigate whether Wu Jun had violated discipline in Zhouling City.
There are those who have strict military discipline in the army at that time, but the Wu army is most likely not among them.
Under the investigation of his cronies, Lu Xun really found out a lot of violations of law and discipline by Wu Jun.
Among those generals who committed crimes, there was one person with a special identity.
That person is Zhu Huan's cousin Zhu Bao, if it is about the relationship, Zhu Bao and Lu Xun are still relatives.
What Zhu Bao committed was the crime of stealing people's property.
Such a crime was not much in the Wu army in the past.
But what everyone didn't expect was this little crime, Zhu Bao was finally beheaded by Lu Xun to show the public.
Lu Xun's harsh methods greatly deterred the Wu army in the city, which made the Wu army dare not break the law and discipline again.
And the reason why Lu Xun wants to do this has another purpose, that is, he wants the people of Zhou Ling to see how he Lu Xun is selfless.
Lu Xun wanted to use this to save some people's hearts.
In order to achieve this goal, Lu Xun also ordered people to find the Han soldiers who were hiding in the city.
Lu Xun didn't mean to hurt them.
On the contrary, after Lu Xun found those Han soldiers, he gave them more condolences and treated them well.
In the end, even Lu Xun was willing to take the initiative to let them go back to the police.
Lu Xun's actions not only surprised the Han army, but also puzzled many Wu generals.
Only a few people saw what Lu Xun's intentions were.
"Attack the city below, attack the heart first!"
When these Han soldiers returned to the public security, Guan Ping would definitely ask them about the state tomb.
And when Lu Xun treats the people well, after the story of the sergeant spreads in the public security city, the resistance in the public security city will be weakened a lot.
But looking at the corpse of Wang Hong, who had been re-restrained by Lu Xun's dress, Yu Fu couldn't help but ask himself in his heart:
"Isn't it too late to make amends?"
