Guan Lin and Zhuge Ke talked, and Lingju listened to it all.

She recognized every word, but it was connected but it was foggy, and she tried to ask: "Is the prince of Yunqi going to threaten Lu Meng in Jiaozhou with this two sons?" ”

"No!" Guan Lin's reply was resounding, "It's not us who threaten Lu Meng, I am such a noble person, how can I threaten Jingzhou's allies under this Sun-Liu alliance?" ”

Yes...

Lingju is even more foggy, obviously what Guan Lin said just now is to threaten Lu Meng, and to force Lu Xun to abandon Wu and Shu.

She also wanted to ask, but Guan Lin had already walked away with a light smile, looking like he was in his chest.

Looking at Lingju's confused appearance, Zhuge Ke explained for Guan Lin: "Where to use us to threaten? The Shixie family in Jiaozhou, which is the most suitable candidate? ”

Speaking of this, he sighed with emotion: "It was not us who forced Lu Xun to abandon Wu Toushu, but the Shixie family in Jiaozhou!" ”

With Zhuge Ke's words, he blurted out.

After a short brain circuit, Lingju seemed to realize it all at once.

- "This Cloud Banner Boy, he's so good... It's so bad!'

…

…

Jiaozhi, which was called "the land of a hundred Yue" in the pre-Qin period.

During the turbulent years of the Three Kingdoms, it was enshrined as a place of "paradise, scholarly soil".

It is hard to imagine that if the original trajectory of history is followed, when Shu Han perished and the rebellion between Zhong Hui and Deng Ai broke out.

This side of the "paradise" will also be because of the greed of Wu to transfer 3,000 peacocks into Jianye, which will cause the people of Jiaozhi to declare an uprising due to tyranny, and unite Jiuzhen and Rinan counties to rebel against Eastern Wu!

It took two Soochow monarchs to pacify.

This proves that even if a rabbit is in a hurry, it will bite!

And at this moment, for various reasons, Soochow and Jiaozhou fought in advance, and they did not hesitate to fight, sabre-rattling...

For a time, the quiet and peaceful Jiaozhou was experiencing an unprecedented war, and the army was overwhelmed.

That's 50 years ahead of history!

"Whew-"

At this moment, Shi Xie, who was standing on the tower of Jiaozhi City, let out a long breath, and he looked at the twenty "Eight Bull Crossbows" that had just been transported from Gangneung and were being transported to Yulin County on the front line and to Hepu County on the front line.

He asked aloud, "Can these eight-bull crossbows really shoot so far?" ”

"Eight hundred steps is no problem!"

The son Shihui beside him replied truthfully.

"So, have you all learned?" Shi Xie then asked.

"Basically, it's not a big problem... Although the accuracy is not enough to achieve 100 shots, dozens of people operate a crossbow with eight bulls, each performing their own duties, and it is enough to shoot arrows into the enemy camp. ”

His son Shihui's words undoubtedly gave Shixie a lot of confidence...

He nodded his head, "That's fine, you can also go, and rush to Yulin County, where your uncle Shiyi is stationed, and with these eight oxen crossbows, you can be sure that nothing goes wrong." ”

As he spoke, Shi Xie's eyes looked into the distance, as if he had crossed the layers of mountains, and he could already see the tension and strangeness on the battlefield of Yulin County.

What was nervous was that the army of the Lu family was pressing the border and was stationed at the border.

The strange thing is that Lu Xun has not marched for more than ten days.

Of course, the reason for this, Shi Xie knows, is because of the true patriarch of the Lu family, Lu Ji!

is also because of the strategy offered by the fourth prince of Guan.

I have to say that this strategy makes Lu Xun's mouse trap very easy to use, and it has bought a lot of time for Jiaozhou!

"Father rest assured... Boy, go now. Shi Hui hurriedly surrendered his hand and immediately went down to the city...

He personally escorted the Eight Ox Crossbow to Yulin.

Shi Xie stroked his beard while looking at the huge eight-ox crossbow, and finally his worried heart was able to land peacefully.

A Lu Ji, an eight-bull crossbow, this is foolproof, right?

But at this moment, "Father, father..." was Shi Xie's second son, Shi Xie, who hurriedly climbed the steps, panting and looking extremely ugly.

"What's so alarming?"

"Lu Ji... Then Lu Ji was let go! Shiyi's voice was filled with infinite sadness, and his eyes were hesitant and a little overwhelmed.

"What?" Shi Xie was old, and when he heard this, his legs staggered, and he almost didn't stand firm.

Shi only then reported, "Yes... It was the long history 'Cheng Bing' hired by his father, he said that he was interrogated by his father's order, and the child thought that he was a contemporary Confucian, and he would never deceive people, so he handed people over to him, but who would have thought... Who would have thought... He... He has already taken refuge in Soochow, he is a person from Soochow! ”

This...

With a "bang", Shi Xie swallowed a mouthful of spit, his eyes condensed.

- Lu Ji is the umbrella of their Jiaozhou!

It's gone, and now Lu Ji is gone.

That... It is tantamount to Lu Xun and Lu Jiajun breaking away from the shackles.

Yulin County is in danger—

"Cheng Bingcheng Deshu, I treat him well... He... He is a disciple of Zheng Xuan, a member of my Confucian sect, why did he turn his back on me? I... I don't treat him well! ”

When Shixie was young, he went to Luoyang to study "Zuo's Spring and Autumn" with Liu Tao, a native of Yingchuan, and since then he has considered himself a Confucian scholar.

And among the Confucian people, without exception, the most admired is the "god of scripture" Zheng Xuan, who gathers all families and accommodates them into one!

It is precisely because of this that when Cheng Bing, a disciple of Zheng Xuan, avoided trouble and handed over to the state, Shixie entrusted him with a heavy responsibility.

The governor of a state... This is a confidant and a staff figure!

But who would have thought that he... He actually betrayed Shi Xie and "stole" Lu Ji away...

"In vain... In vain..."

Shi Xie was helped to stand up by his son Shi Xie, and he scolded angrily: "Cheng Bing dog thief, in vain I trust you so much, you actually... You are a person in vain, and you are not worthy of being a disciple of the gods... You..."

After scolding angrily, Shi Xie's voice trembled.

After scolding, he let out a bad breath.

Can... But the situation... has been completely flipped.

"Dad..."Shi only wanted to persuade his father, but in this case, he didn't know how to persuade him, he only felt that a great disaster was coming.

On the other hand, after a brief period of horror, his chest fluctuated... He clenched his hands into fists, as if he saw hope in despair, and grasped it.

He sighed: "Lu Ji is gone, and the Lu family army is bound to attack in a big way, and now... Now I can only bet on the eight-bull crossbow! ”

At this moment, Shi Xie no longer has the calmness and calmness of the past...

He realized that nothing else could be relied upon.

Only the eight-bull crossbow smashed down by millions of dollars - it is the most reliable, and it is also the most likely to turn the tide!

…

…

At the border of Yulin County, the Lu family military camp is a village.

Lu Xun and Sun Ru were studying the map, and Lu Xun's son Lu Yan walked in, he was originally responsible for transporting grain and grass for the Lu family's army, but with a military order, now the burden of escorting grain and grass was handed over to Lu Meng.

The lives of the 30,000 Lu family troops were also in the hands of Lu Meng.

Lu Yan broke into the camp tent and asked in a loud voice: "Father, I heard that Wu Hou wants you to fight Jiaozhi within a month......

Lu Xun sighed lightly: "Don't disturb the morale of the army." ”

Lu Yan stomped his feet, "There are still two cities and counties away from Jiaozhi here, and it's too late to whip up the whip, so slow... How is it possible to hit? Let your son fight, then Lu Meng will go back, but that step is still there, at least... It's good to show him a look! ”

Lu Xun shook his head: "You can't hide it from Bu Qi, let alone Wu Hou..."

"Do you sit still? Only... Just because of Lu Ji? ”

"That's your grandfather." Lu Xun blamed his son for his rudeness, then stared at his eyebrows and ordered: "Send more spies and pay attention to the movements of Yu Linjun..."

"Your son is right, Chachacha... What to check? This time, Sun Ru spoke, "The defenders of Yulin County in Jiaozhou are only 10,000 people, there is plenty of food and grass, and the guard is the eldest of the younger brothers... In the past 30 years, there has been no war, let alone a country... This... I'm going to memorize all of this. ”

Lu Yan looked at Sun Ru in horror, he felt for the first time that he wanted to go with this stepmother.

"Yan'er, you go out first." Lu Xun commanded.

Lu Yan had no choice but to retire.

For a while, only Lu Xun and Sun Ru were left in this big tent.

Lu Xun comforted Sun Ru: "Why can't even you hold your breath?" ”

Sun Ru pursed her lips, "Bo Yan, you always say that there will be a turnaround, a turnaround... Where exactly is the turnaround? ”

This...

Lu Xun was silent for a moment, he shook his head, "I don't know..."

Sun Ru said to Ai Ai: "Then Sun Quan treats you like this, why... You... Do you have to be so loyal to him? ”

"Why?" Lu Xun was silent for a moment, he sighed, and then spoke: "The ancestor of the Lu family is the grandson of King Qi Xuan, who sealed Pingyuan County, so he got the surname Lu, which is the Lu family of Pingyuan; In the Han Dynasty, the ancestor Lu Lie's branch moved into Wu and called it the Lu clan of Wu County, and gained a foothold in Jiangdong; In addition, there is also Yingchuan Taishou Lu Hongli Yingchuan Lu Clan, which is also a branch of the Lu Clan..."

"But time has passed, and their two branches have disappeared, and the fundamental reason is that they have migrated... The clan can't be easily moved. Once the people move, the relationship, resources, energy, generations of business will be in vain, and there will be no roots, once the clan has no roots, it will be a tiger in Pingyang, that is a pig and a dog, not until the end... Without the last step, the Lu family can't leave Wu County! ”

Lu Xun said a lot in one breath, Sun Ru pursed his lips, "You mean, unless Dongwu is not surnamed Sun, otherwise... Otherwise..."

Whew-

With a heavy exhalation, Lu Xun groaned: "I'm gambling, not only betting that there will be a turnaround in this month, but also betting... Although Wu Hou is cruel, Buqi and Lu Meng will not backstab their own people, if they can speak for me, maybe... Maybe there is no turnaround in this month, and the Lu family is also... There is still a silver lining! ”

Sun Ru bit her lip: "That Lu Meng? That step... Will they? Will you speak for us? ”

This question has just been thrown...

Lu Xun has not yet answered.

The footsteps of "-stampede" resounded again.

Lu Yan broke into the military tent again.

It's just that this time it's much more excited than the one just now.

"Didn't you let you out? How did you come back again? ”

Lu Xun hurriedly asked, with reproach in his tone.

Lu Yan said excitedly: "It's here, the turnaround is coming... Just now, the urgent news came, the urgent news came... Lu Ji... Lu Ji rescued him, it was Cheng Bing... He saved Lu Ji, and now he has passed through the waterway and is rushing back here, at most... You can reach Yulin in one day at most! ”

"What?" Lu Xun suddenly got up and looked at Lu Yan in disbelief.

His eyes gradually widened, and a pair of pupils were full of colors that were about to explode after being suppressed for a long time.

He still asked with restraint:

"Is that true?"

"Really! The probe horse is right outside the door,"

With Lu Yan's extremely affirmative answer, Lu Xun overturned the pen and ink on the table, and he quickly took down the map of Yulin from the wall hanging on one side and quickly unfolded it.

One of his eyes was blazing on the map.

At this moment, the terrain of Yulin County seemed to have changed into an attacking Lu Xun, destroying the ancient and decaying-

"Madame, fetch my armor and sword—"

"Yan'er, immediately send instructions to the three armies for my father, reorganize the army for battle, and when Gongji returns tomorrow, it will be the day when my Lu family's army will break through Yulin County!"

"Whew-"

With Lu Yan's order, the Lu family's military village, which had been immersed for a long time, seemed to have suddenly erupted.

In the originally silent barracks, a large number of sergeants began to walk out of the camp, practicing assassination and climbing with high morale, shouting loudly: "Hey, ha! Hey! Ha! Kill! ”

Sun Ru was also quite excited to put on armor and sword for Lu Xun, and the two walked out of the barracks together.

When the soldiers saw Lu Xun, they all saluted excitedly.

"Meet the General—"

This fighting spirit was high-spirited and deafening.

Lu Xun knew that this was not because of the military order to attack the city, it was because the Lu family army knew that their patriarch Lu Ji was still alive, and their patriarch Lu Ji was rescued and saved by Lu Xun.

At this moment, Lu Xun's prestige in the Lu family army was unprecedented.

"Ladies and gentlemen, for the sake of the Lu family, in order to take this Jiaozhou, you have worked hard-"

The three armies were silent for a moment, and suddenly shouted in unison: "General Lu is heroic, General Lu is heroic, General Lu is heroic—"

The deafening cry soared into the sky and shattered the sky.

Even the Jiaozhou spies who were ambushed in the distance were shocked by this momentum.

And the shouts of the soldiers, like a warm current, made Lu Xun cheer up for the first time in a long time, and he waved his sword.

Ordered: "Tomorrow's siege, today's siege array—"

The team of the Lu family army suddenly assembled, changed the formation, and the wind and clouds were thunderous for a while.

Even Bu Qi, who was staying here, couldn't help but walk out of the military tent when he heard the voice, he looked at the high-spirited momentum of the Lu family's army, and said with emotion: "Is it finally going to attack the city?" ”

…

…

On the top of the castle tower of Yulin County, eight crossbows are being arranged, a full ten...

Shi Yi was still asking: "This thing looks so clumsy, and it requires hundreds of soldiers to operate, it seems so cumbersome, can it work?" ”

Shi Hui pointed to the bottom of the mountain range eight hundred steps ahead, "Uncle, don't worry, if the Lu family army dares to line up there, the child can use this eight-bull crossbow to pierce their command platform with one arrow!" ”

Shi Hui's voice just fell...

Suddenly, a thunderous sound rang out, like the footsteps of tens of thousands of people, and even caused the valleys to echo endlessly.

"What is this sound? Going to find out? "Shi Yi thought that the enemy was going to attack the city.

The scout galloped away.

The entire Shijia army nervously held their weapons one by one, waiting for the battle...

Shi Hui also stared into the distance.

The spies rushed back: "Report to the general, Lu Xun is training troops on the other side and practicing siege formations... It's not really a siege. ”

Shi Yi first breathed a sigh of relief, and then thought of a terrifying thing, he grabbed the spies' shoulders and asked, "Lu Xun is playing a siege array?" Do you see him in charge? Siege formation? ”

"Exactly... Lu Xun himself. ”

Shi Yi's eyes widened in disbelief and murmured, "Why did he practice siege, could it... Could it be..."

Sure enough, it was at this moment.

A messenger galloped over, "The governor of the seven counties asked the little one to bring a letter to the general, and Lu Ji was rescued. ”

As soon as these words came out, Shi Yi seemed to be defeated, and stepped back with heavy steps...

It's like suddenly losing hope.

Shi Hui hurriedly asked, "Why is my uncle so alarmed?" ”

"I finally understand..."Shi Yi's tone trembled, "Why... Why did Lu Xun practice the siege array, it turned out that it was because Lu Ji was rescued, so... So... I'm afraid it won't be long before he really attacks the city. ”

In stark contrast to Shi Yi's nervous mood, Shi Hui...

A sneer flashed across the corner of Shi Hui's mouth:

"He's coming? He Lu Jiajun dares to come, let's let Lu Xun be buried here-"

…

…

Changsha County, among a wine shop.

Ji Hanzhong's minister Han Xuan asked Shi Xie's second brother to come out to discuss the matter.

There were dishes on the table, but no wine.

"There is no wine, and there is a banquet, I think it is an important matter." It was not the first time that Shi had met Han Xuan, because of the exchange between Jiaozhou and Jingzhou in arms sales.

The transportation of ordnance, the repair of waterways, and even... The inventory of gold, Han Xuan is the first level here.

The two see each other almost every day, and the numbers are very low.

Hearing this, Han Xuan stroked his beard, and he took out a bamboo slip from his arms, along with a pair of jade pendants, all of which were placed on the desk.

He opened his mouth and said, "It's the Yunqi Gongzi who has an order..."

"Ordnance? Or gold? The taxi hurriedly asked. What does this jade pendant and bamboo slip mean? ”

Now that it was an eventful season, Shi Fang heard news from Jiaozhou again, and Lu Ji's good deeds could be "stolen", and the situation in Jiaozhou can already be described as dangerous.

It is no exaggeration to say that the eight-bull crossbow is already the last straw in Jiaozhou.

There's no room for error!

"Neither." Han Xuan waved his hand, he pointed to this jade pendant, pointed to this bamboo slip, and said in a solemn tone, "This jade pendant is a personal token of the two sons of the Eastern Wu general Lu Meng, and this bamboo slip is a letter written by the two of them..."

"What do you mean?" The priest asked suspiciously.

"It means... Now Lü Meng's two sons are making trouble in Jiangling and have been caught by Yunqi. ”

This...

As Han Xuan's words blurted out, Shi still scratched his head, "Lu Meng? Attackable... But it was Lu Xun who attacked Jiaozhou, where was Lu Jiajun? What is the use of catching Lu Meng's son, who is not Lu Xun's son? ”

"Hahaha..."

Hearing this, Han Xuan laughed, "This is the gap between your vision and Yunqi's vision, you only see one of them, you can't see the second, hehe... You don't know yet, it's this Lu Meng who supplies food and grass for this Lu Xun and Lu Jiajun! The food in his hands is the life of the Lu family! ”

Yes... Yes...

Shi suddenly got up, and he seemed to understand all of a sudden, "What does Yunqi Gongzi mean?" In order to blackmail Lu Meng... Cut off the food of this Lu family's army? And then... Wipe out this Lu family's army? ”

"If it were me, I might do it." Han Xuan's eyes narrowed into a slit.

He received an urgent letter from Guan Lin this morning, and it was this urgent letter that deeply shocked him.

Vision...

This is the vision!

He Han Xuan has lived for so many years, and he finally found that when it comes to vision, he is not even as good as a nose hair of this kid Guan Lin!

Such a great opportunity...

If it was him, he must have thought the same as Shi, thinking about how to kill Lu Xun, how to destroy the Lu family's army, borrow a knife to kill people, and never suffer in the future.

Can...

What Guan Lin wrote in the urgent letter was to force Lu Xun and guide Lu Jiajun to abandon Wu and join Shu!

And the detailed steps have been listed.

No matter how big or small, I thought of it all!

- "This kid, if you don't accept it, you can't do it!"

Han Xuan sighed...

blinked his eyes, "Guan Sigongzi wants Lu Xun and Lu Jiajun, this matter... I have to have the help of your Jiaozhou! ”

"Of course, Guan Sigongzi will not let you work in vain, and the rest of the eight bull crossbows, Guan Sigongzi is giving you a discount!"

Hear about the discount...

The taxi stopped doing it, and hurriedly waved his hand, "It's boring to talk about money!" ”

"Yunqi Gongzi taught us a trick before, and he has successfully delayed the attack of the Lu family's army, and it is too late for me to be grateful!"

"Alas... If it weren't for our own fault and let Lu Ji run away, where would we be so nervous now? Walking on thin ice? It's our negligence! But Yunqi Gongzi can do this step and help this step, he is already a friend of my Jiaozhou Shijia, and I Jiaozhou Shijia is a friend, he has always been generous, but he has orders, and he will never shirk! ”

"As for this discount, I don't have to mention it again, if it comes to my eldest brother's ears, I think it's Yunqi Gongzi who looks down on us Jiaozhou!"

This...

Han Xuan couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

- "This is hundreds of thousands of gold, Jiaozhou's generosity to friends... That's how generous it is."

"Ahem... cough cough..."He hurriedly coughed lightly and said solemnly: "That... I'll tell you about the specific plan... We are all friends, and we don't hide it from you, this matter, we can't let Dongwu think that it is our Jingzhou who is secretly making trouble! ”

"That's all easy to say." Shi's tone became serious, "I'm only worried now, that Lu Ji has run away, Lu Xun and the Lu family army are bound to attack in a big way, and now there are only twenty Eight Bull Crossbows, Yulin County... Can you stand it? ”

Hear this...

Han Xuan also raised his eyebrows in an instant.

Likely, he also looked worried.

And seeing Han Xuan like this, Shi was even more worried, "Han Lao is also worried, can't the twenty eight-ox crossbows withstand the offensive of the Lu family's army?" ”

"Ahh ”

"My worries... Don't shoot Lu Xun to death with these eight-bull crossbows, if he dies... That's a pity, the dead can't abandon Wu Toushu! ”

Yes... Yes...

Han Xuan's words made Shi fall into deep confusion and surprise.

- "What do you mean by this?"

- "Han Lao is so confident in this Cloud Banner Boy?"
