Chapter Eighty-Eight: Chasing Jingnan

"Governor! With all due respect, at this moment, our army is arrogant, and it is definitely not a good time for a decisive battle. Chen Zhi saw Li Xian's determined expression, but he couldn't help but dissuade him.

Li Xian's cheeks, which were originally full of smiles, instantly stiffened, Chen Zhiyan's words are indeed a major drawback in the current army, Guan Yunchang was defeated in this arrogant plan back then, and his face sank and said: "Uncle Shi, the governor of Pontus has his own thoughts, and the terrain here is open, which is suitable for our army to start a head-to-head confrontation with Lu Xun." ”

"But the governor has not thought about the consequences of defeat." Chen Zhi once again arched his hand in the foreword.

"The governor of Pontus knows that the whole army will be annihilated, and another defeat will be staged." Li Xian slowly floated a few words out of his mouth.

"Then since the governor knows, why do you have to fight a decisive battle here, once the sect prefect is broken, our army will become an ambush on all sides, this is the way to die." Chen Zhi arched his hand.

When Li Xian heard this, he closed his eyes, leaned on the desk, and said after a while: "I believe that General Deyan will live up to me." ”

Chen Zhi wanted to persuade again, but was interrupted by Fu Yan: "General Zongzhen is by no means comparable to traitors like Mi Fang and Fu Shiren, and I also believe in General Deyan." ”

Chen Zhi was only silent when he heard this, and after a while, he gave up his hand and said: "Dudu, that means that you are determined to fight Lu Xun here?" ”

Li Xian nodded, signaling that Chen Zhi was right.

Chen Zhi looked at Li Xian so calmly, and then looked at himself, but he was also dumbfounded, and said: "Okay, the last general will lose his temper for a while, which makes the governor laugh." ”

"That's not true, but I'm sure Uncle Shi must be very curious, why is it that the big war is imminent, but I am so calm, and I can't see any preparations before the big war?" Li Xian got up slowly, and then saw Zhao Guang and Zhao Tong's second generals also slowly walking into the camp.

The second general arched his hand and said: "Governor Qiqi, all the gunpowder around Yiling has been arranged, and our army's gunpowder inventory has been emptied. ”

Chen Zhi's eyes widened at this time, and he looked at Li Xian deadly, and said: "It turns out that the governor has already made arrangements, but he is just hiding from me." ”

Li Xian said with a smile: "It's really hiding it from my uncle, but well, this battle, since I have fought here, I will also give my uncle a secret, this battle, the advantage is mine!" Immediately after that, Li Xian slapped the case again, and in an instant, it was like a passionate sermon, "This general has been fighting more than 30 battles since Yiling, and has not tasted defeat, Nanzhong captured Meng Shu, Weishui Battle Zhang He, and Jieting Jue Longdao, it is not bad for this Yiling to break Lu Xun, the shame of Yiling, the last general will never forget the night, the hatred of the first emperor, not to taste the snow, the revenge of Guan Zhang, failed to get revenge, if you can't level Dongwu here in this life, what is the difference between the walking dead!" ”

In the face of Li Xian's sudden passion, the tent instantly burned the blood to the peak, I haven't seen my own coach with such a firm look in his eyes for a long time, the last time was when he attacked Yidu from Yong'an at night, at this time, whether it was Zhao Guang Zhao Tong or Chen Zhi in the field, he only felt that an unprecedented passion was ignited in an instant, and he only felt that his blood was gushing, and he wished that he would pick up a knife and go on the horse to cut a few Wu soldiers now.

"Enlighten the Governor! Outside the tent, Lu Xun's messenger asks to meet! ”

"Bring it on!" Li Xian couldn't help but say, so he ordered directly.

The messenger looked at the people in the tent, shivered, and handed over the envelope in his hand, but Li Xian didn't mean to open it, and threw it into the brazier behind him, the messenger just wanted to speak, but Li Xian said directly: "Go back and tell your family governor, the next time you meet, you will be decided, and you will also divide life and death!" Drop-off! ”

The messenger was dragged out by Fu Yan on the side, and just wanted to speak, but was blocked by a ball of linen.

"Soldiers, you understand! If this battle is won, Jingzhou can be restored, the Han family can prosper, if this battle is lost, the governor of Bendu will judge himself in this Yiling to thank His Majesty and the prime minister, Master Zhao Yun for their kindness! ”

"I'll understand! We will fight to the death to defeat Lu Xun! All the generals bowed their hands in unison.

"Good! From now on, listen to my orders and strictly enforce them! Li Xian paused, "Zhao Guang listened to the order, you go to the beachhead to collect all kinds of sand and gravel and stones, regardless of the quality, bring them all, take as much as you can, and put them all in the camp." ”

"Order!" Zhao Guang gave up his hand and left.

"Zhao Tong, you and your headquarters will camp here, remember, the depth of the stake should be twice as deep as usual."

"Order!"

"Fu Yan, dispatch all the manpower, and the starry night will mix these sand and gravel transported back by Zhao Guang with lime and water for me, and after stirring and forming, use Zhao Tong to tie the wooden stake as the skeleton and cast the wall!"

"Order!"

The three of them directly received the order to do so, and walked out of the camp gate quickly, Li Xian was very surprised, they didn't even ask what they were doing, they just took the order, but it made their hearts empty for a while, and then looked at Chen Dao, who was holding his cheeks and pondering, and secretly said in his heart: Why don't you even ask Uncle Shi.

After a while, Chen Zhi realized that Li Xian was looking at him, so he asked, "Dudu, just now...... I didn't understand those arrangements just now, so I don't know what the purpose of this arrangement is? ”

"Could it be that Uncle Shi is thinking about this?"

Chen Zhi shook his head and said, "No." ”

This time, Li Xian was lost to the bottom, and asked, "What is Uncle Shi thinking?" ”

"The old man is excited, if he really defeats Lu Xun here, then Uncle Shi will really be famous in history, but unfortunately, he is not as lucky as General Zilong, and he can have a song that is so legendary as he is drunk and picks up the lamp and looks at the sword."

Li Xian's sweat, good guy, it turns out that you have been silent for a long time to ask for a poem, don't you know that our General Li's poem is one less poem, and I don't think it's very reasonable to think about it, but this big cake is drawn for him first, so as not to make him worried, so he said: "Uncle don't worry, when the time comes, I will definitely write you a different one." ”

"Really?" Chen Zhi said with a little joy.

"A word is a certainty, but the current matter must first break Lu Xun." Li Xian said again.

"Good!" Chen Zhifang seemed to be gearing up, and indeed seemed to come back to his senses and said, "Dudu, why did you let the three of them go out just now?" ”

"Making concrete, this is a new discovery of the Ponturake, according to a certain proportion of water, sand and limestone, not only can bond all forms of stones, but also strong and abnormal, with this thing as long as the skeleton is laid in advance, it will not take half a month, you can build an impregnable city on this plain." Li Xian couldn't wait to explain, "Of course, if everything is expedited, it can be completed in ten days, and if Lu Xun leaves from Changsha, it will take five days to get here, we only need to ensure the safety of the city casting team in these five days, and the change will be invincible." ”

"I see." Chen suddenly realized.

......

"There are no ambushes?" Xu Sheng also said incredulously, looking at the already deep dark circles on Ling Tong's face who had been guarding all night.

Ling Tong yawned and said: "This Li Xian, it is clear that he really retreated, pretending to be a suspicious soldier, afraid that we would betray the alliance and pursue and set up a pit. ”

"Joke, who was trapped in Qutang Gorge and almost died?" Xu Sheng snorted coldly.

"Eh, I said you, why don't you open which pot to mention, without my water army, does your army still have combat effectiveness?" Ling Tong was also not to be outdone, and retorted, "Moreover, the battle of Qutang Gorge was commanded by that idiot of Quan Cong, and Lao Tzu has never fought such a battle in his life. ”

"Alright." Lu Xun interrupted softly, "There is no ambush without ambushes, and it is also my Lu Mou's wisdom that is not as good as others, it is not the fault of the general, I can't imagine that this chess opponent is really unique." ”

"The governor must not grow the ambition of others, destroy his own prestige, the governor is unparalleled in wisdom and scheming, no one knows, this Li Xian is accidentally right, and it is not counted."

Ling Tong and Ding Feng also bowed their hands together and said, "That's right!" It doesn't count. ”

"There are only ten days left for our army, and now I can see that Li Xian's army has retreated to Zhuluping, and then there is Baling, which is a rare great plain, if our army fights a decisive battle there, I am afraid that the victory will be difficult to distinguish." Lu Xun continued to rub his temples.

Xu Sheng arched his hand and said: "What do you mean by the governor, lure them out?" ”

Lu Xun shook his head and said: "I can't lead it out, back then, Li Xian was in the street pavilion, cowardly like a turtle, and when he arrived in Weishui, he was suddenly like a tiger, he was really immobile like a mountain, invaded like fire, and won the essence of the art of war, either he could only fight him here, or he could only be dragged to death by him." ”

Xu Sheng also scratched his head: "Then Dudu, are we going to fight or not?" ”

"Hit! I'm waiting for news from one person. ”

The three of them looked at each other, and Xu Sheng was the first to react and said, "The governor is waiting for news from General He Qi." ”

Lu Xun nodded, his heart was already full of doubts, and he said straightly: "I feel that something is wrong." ”

"What's the explanation?"

Lu Xun said: "From Wuling to Yiling, and then from Yiling, the fast horse should have arrived three days ago, this will not arrive yet, I am afraid that something has happened." ”

"If calculated according to the strength of the army, the Yiling defenders should be less than 5,000, and the 30,000 people in Wuling should be more than enough, why haven't you heard the news yet, if you can't form a flanking attack on all sides, our army's original chances of victory will be reduced by one percent." Lu Xun continued to analyze.

"That's it! No waiting! The whole army listens to my general's order and opens up the Luping! Commander Ling's naval army went up the Xiangjiang River, and it was here that he defeated Li Xian! Lu Xun finally put down the hand that had been pinching his forehead, and ordered loudly.

"The last general commands!"

Suddenly, the smoke and dust of the Jingnan Continent were billowing and thick smoke was rising, and the originally calm Xiangjiang River raised its sails and went straight to Baling under the urging of a horn......
