Chapter 566 - Entrusting Heavy Tasks and Appointing Heavy Troops

Half a day later, an army of 10,000 left Wu County in the north.

Before Long Xiang sent out his troops, he had sent people to Wuxi to deliver the letter, and he was sure that LΓΌ Fan should also temporarily stop attacking the city for the sake of Sun Kuang.

As long as Zhao Fan is allowed to breathe, even if Lu Fan is unwilling to stop the army at that time, the worst plan is to just face it.

Through a simple confrontation outside the city of Wu County, Long Xiang saw that LΓΌ Fan was stronger than Sun Quan with his troops.

even guessed that if Sun Quan didn't go to Liyang to cause chaos, maybe Lu Meng could fight better?

It seems that these generals in Jiangdong are not all useless.

Wu County is nearly 100 miles away from Wuxi, and it takes two days for Long Xiang's light troops to advance in a hurry, but he deliberately set off at noon, even when he arrived in Wuxi, it was also noon, so that he encountered a battle at night.

The first day of the march was uneventful.

But by the next night. Long Xiang suddenly broke into Sun Kuang's tent.

Frightened, Sun Kuang's wife curled up in a corner, covered her body with a quilt and shivered.

"What do you want to do?"

Sun Kuang was not afraid that Long Xiang would insult his wife, the army would arrive in Wuxi tomorrow, he was afraid that Long Xiang would use his own head to sacrifice the flag, so he was very nervous.

"Huh." Long Xiang smiled and shook his head: "Who does Ji Zuo (Sun Kuang) think of me?" I'm going to arrive in Wuxi tomorrow, I just want to say a few words to you, so I don't have to be so nervous. ”

Sun Kuang saw Lu Yi behind him, his hanging heart let go a little, and he hurriedly let go of his Hu bed, and swept the dust on it with his cuffs.

"General Long, please take a seat."

"Sit down later, bring the stuff in."

As soon as Long Xiang's words fell, the two tiger guards hugged the wooden box and put two large boxes of bamboo slips on the table.

"It's."

"This is the file of Zhou Lang's poisoning case, I came to give it to Ji Zuo to check today, and I hope that when I go to Lu Fan, I can show them the file."

Sun Kuang was very vigilant, and hurriedly whispered: "General Long wants to carry out a plan to divide the world? ”

"Haha."

Long Xiang laughed loudly: "If I do a divisive plan, I need to be so upright?" It's just a matter of revealing the truth, and his friends have the right to know;

Yesterday in Wu County, I said that it was Mrs. Bao's intention to let you go to Guangling, and Zhou Lang did his best for the Sun family, and finally ended up being poisoned? You have an obligation to find out the murderer;

What if the murderer is Zhou Shan? Huo Chun was wiped out by the three clans, and this person can get away with it. ”

"I can save it."

Sun Kuang nodded and pondered, Long Xiang patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Danyang and Wujun have been obtained by me, the people have supported, the ministers have responded, and Brother Ling has been defeated in Lishui again, do you think Lu Fan can succeed?" People have to face reality;

In addition, if there is any suspicion in the assassination case of Sun Shubi, I will also send the file to Guangling, which can be regarded as my entry into Jiangdong and compensation to your Sun family. ”

"Ugh"

Sun Kuang was hesitating how to answer, but Long Xiang turned around and left the account without sitting down.

Immediately afterwards, Sun's wife lifted the quilt and walked over, suggesting to Sun Kuang:

"Long Xiang is scheming, he must have a calculation in sending these files, the husband must not ignore it, if he really lets us go, when he gets to Lu Taishou's side, he will destroy these bamboo slips."

"For the husband's own plans, this matter is already boiling in Wu County, I want to see what Long Xiang finds."

Sun Kuang picked up a bamboo slip and looked at it, which was the contradiction described by the ministers' recollections, talking about Zhou Yu's 'bullying' move, which reflected that he had a motive to kill Sun Quan.

Far-fetched.

Sun Kuang didn't finish reading the volume, so he threw it aside like waste wood.

The heart said that if it were all such inferences, my second brother would not be wrongfully killed? Zhuge Ziyu is at this level?

But as soon as he opened the second volume, Sun Kuang's brows furrowed, and on the bamboo slips was the testimony of Zhou Yu's own soldiers.

Then one volume after another, I closed my eyes in the middle of the night after seeing it, and finally confirmed that Long Xiang was not talking nonsense, and all the evidence pointed to Zhou Shan.

The previous boiling account book incident was also this Zhou Shan's receipt of huge kickbacks.

When Zhuge Jin was investigating Zhou Yu's case, he also checked the property of Zhou Shan's family, and confirmed that Sun Quan was the person behind the scenes.

Could it be that the second brother really wants to kill Zhou Yu?

Sun Kuang fell asleep with suspicion, and when he woke up the next day with dark circles under his eyes, the carriage he was riding in had been brought to the front of the battle.

Long Xiang confronted Lu Fan in array at this time, and proposed to exchange Sun Kuang's family for the retired soldiers.

Lu Fan learned the news of Wu County's increase in troops, he had no advantage in terms of troops, and it was when it was difficult to ride a tiger, so he was happy to go down the steps given by Long Xiang.

After receiving Sun Kuang's carriage, LΓΌ Fan also fulfilled his promise to withdraw his troops to the north.

The danger of Wuxi will be automatically lifted.

Long Xiang saw that Lu Fan's withdrawal was in order, and the actions of the various armies were orderly and the formation was not chaotic, so he put down the clairvoyant mirror and sighed:

"This person has the demeanor of a general, and these tens of thousands of people are really a bit tricky."

"Lu Ziheng is capable, he is deeply respected by the Sun brothers, when Sun Bofu was in charge of Jiangdong, his status was comparable to Zhou Gongjin, if he can really support Sun Kuang and separate from Sun Zhongmou's forces, then Wu County will be relatively stable, otherwise there will be constant threats in the future."

Hearing Lu Yi's high evaluation, Long Xiang looked at him with a deep face full of meaning, and said, "If I allocate you a soldier and horse, can Bo Yan stop Lu Fan from going south?" ”

"A troop? How much? ”

Lu Yi showed an incredulous expression.

In the past few years, he has started with clerical work, and now he is the captain of Haichang Tuntian, and he has never touched the military power in his hands.

The Sun family and the Lu family have enmity in the past, and Lu Yi does not expect to be in charge of the army.

After all, with Sun Quan's suspicious personality, his own military power is a potential threat.

Gu Yong wrote a letter to Lu Yi to return to Wu, and thought that Long Xiang wanted to use him to govern the government, but he didn't expect to directly let him join the army, and he would be granted military power so soon.

Lu Yi's answer made Long Xiang stunned, and said in his heart that it was the first time he had seen such an active person? actually directly asked how many troops were allocated.

In fact, Lu Yi also subconsciously asked rhetorically, after all, there are 30,000 garrisons in Guangling, and there is nothing he can do if he is less.

"I'll give you as much as Boyan wants, but you have to prepare your own food."

"This"

Long Xiang's open-mindedness made Lu Xun not know how to speak, and finally timidly asked: "Five thousand? ”

"Five thousand? No problem. ”

Long Xiang replied very briskly, and as soon as he finished speaking, he hurriedly added: "I feel that 5,000 is a bit less, how about directly dialing 8,000 to you?" ”

"Eight thousand? Thank you, General, for your trust. ”

When Lu Yi was moved, Long Xiang suddenly held his hand and said solemnly: "Bo Yan can be stationed in Wuxi temporarily, Lu Fan will definitely occupy the city in the north, you have to find a way to get Biling, Qu'a, Dantu and other places back for me." ”

"I'll do my best."

"Lu Fan's strength should not be underestimated, I will not let you fight alone, and I will provide support in the future, in short, Jiangdong is not my Jiangdong alone, but the Jiangdong of the people of Jiangdong, end the war as soon as possible, and everyone can live and work in peace and contentment."

Long Xiang said extremely sincerely, the soldiers he promised to Lu Yi just now were actually the soldiers brought back by Lei Xu.

Using the people of Jiangdong to lead the troops of Jiangdong should have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort.
