Chapter 304 I'm not targeting anyone, the generals of Eastern Wu are all rubbish
Anlu City, because of the fire outside the west city, caused countless dead branches and ashes to blow into the city with the wind.
This made the guards of the Soochow Post House complain...
The ashes covered their bodies with a thick layer of dust, which made their cheeks dark and they couldn't stop coughing...
finally stayed up until the night was quiet, thinking that Governor Lu Dadu should have slept, so he secretly went to the duty room, went to wash his face, and changed into clean clothes.
But as he walked, he couldn't help but talk about something.
"Look at the fourth prince of Guan, using An Lucheng as a bait to lay down a fire attack, how beautiful this battle is!"
"The ghost knows, the poisonous smoke is so powerful, I heard from the soldiers who came back that most of the Cao Wei soldiers were not burned to death, they were smoked to death by the poisonous smoke."
"Ahh Win more with less, when our Eastern Wu Governor Zhou Lang Chibi also did it once, it was also a fire, and now this Guan family Shiro is young, but it can also be reproduced in Jiangxia, don't admire it, on the other hand... Let's Soochow... Don't mention it, don't mention it! β
Speaking of this, a veteran reminded, "Take care of your mouth, let the Metropolitan Governor hear these words, it may not be possible if this mouth can eat tomorrow!" β
Belch...
With the veteran's reminder, the guard hurriedly covered his mouth, but muttered in his heart.
- "If we can't beat Cao Cao in Dongwu, we can't compare to this Guan Jia Shilang, so we are not allowed to say it ourselves?" What's wrong with it? Accustomed to...'
Of course, these words only dare to muttered in my heart.
However, these words on the surface were really heard by Zhuge Jin and Lu Su in the study.
In the study at this moment, there is a table on one side, and Lu Su and Zhuge Jin are sitting on both sides.
Just five days ago, Guan Lin gave Lu Su 500 "burning cans", and took Lu Su to see the scene when a can was burning.
At that time, Lu Su was shocked, and while feeling its destructive power, he immediately sent Luo Tong to escort the 500 incendiary canisters by water and transported to Hefei.
He had a faint hunch that these five hundred incendiary canisters, if Wu Hou used them well, could turn the situation around and turn the tide.
But at this moment, because of today's "magnificent" battle, Zhuge Jin, who heard about the power and role of this "burning can", couldn't sleep left and right, so he simply came to find Lu Su...
Lu Su couldn't sleep either, so the two came to the study together.
Zhuge Jin has doubts in his heart, and Lu Su also has worries in his heart...
The two sat in front of the desk like this, and for a while, they were speechless.
Finally, the chatter of the soldiers outside the door disturbed the silence.
Zhuge Jin asked: "The flint in the burning jar is the one used by Marquis Wu in the past when he instructed General Lu Meng to deal with the Lu family army in Jiaozhou... I never thought that filling this clay pot and then supplementing it with fish oil would be so powerful on the battlefield... Even the most difficult transportation problems were solved with a small clay pot, and this Guan Jia Shiro reminded us! β
As Zhuge Jin spoke, Lu Su sighed with emotion: "It's a pity that all the flints stored in Dongwu are used against their own people, and the original reserves are not abundant, otherwise... Why do you want Yunqi to provide these 500 'incendiary cans' to solve the urgent need? β
Implication...
Not every city is a "great filial piety"... Ah no, it's "Da'an Lu"!
Not every Sifang mountain can dig up white phosphorus...
There are not many reserves of "white phosphorus" in Dongwu, and Dongwu will not know which mountain will dig out white phosphorus...
Now, the limited white phosphorus is all used to deal with Lu Xun and Lu Jiajun, which also indirectly causes the passivity of the situation in Huainan.
Many times, Lu Su really wanted to shout from the bottom of his heart:
- "You shall not live, if you have done your own iniquity..."
Or to put it another way to put it simply:
- "Yes!"
"It's a pity, it's a pity..."Zhuge Jin also stared deeply and couldn't help sighing.
But after sighing, Zhuge Jin added another question, "Before, when Guan Lin's kid gave the Metropolitan Governor this burning canister, I only thought it was an ordinary flint, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful, but now in retrospect, this matter is weird, such a destructive and lethal incendiary canister, why did Guan Lin give it to Dongwu?" Isn't it good for him to keep it for himself? Besides, this 'flint' is extremely valuable, and there is no price on the market, and he Guan Lin is not very generous, but this time, why is he so generous? β
Zhuge Jin threw out all his questions.
His eyes kept rolling, full of speculation about Guan Lin's motives.
It was precisely this question that made Lu Su's mood throb, he got up slowly, slowly walked to the window lattice, with a little worry in his eyes, and said with emotion while looking up at the sky:
"I originally thought that the survival of the Sun-Liu Alliance, the opportunities and challenges brought about, only me and Zhuge Kongming in the world could understand, after all, it was Zhou Gongjin in the past, Guan Yunchang in Jingzhou, Uncle Liu Huang, and Wu Hou may not be able to understand it, but..."
Speaking of this, Lu Su paused, "I just found out today that Guan Lin is the third person who can understand this bureau besides me and Kong Ming!" β
Yes...
Lu Su's words suddenly became a little heavy.
Zhuge Jin hurriedly asked: "What do you mean by this?" β
"The basis for the survival of the Sun-Liu Alliance is to resist Cao, because if there are three points today, Cao Cao is powerful, this is the foundation of everything!" Lu Su slowly explained, "But the Sun-Liu Alliance, from another level, there are hidden dangers... If one side of the alliance keeps going strong and the other side keeps being beaten, then the alliance can't survive, and it's unfair to the side that keeps being beaten... As long as this happens, the alliance will split, it will soon collapse, and even the beaten side will fight back! β
Speaking of this, Lu Su took a deep breath, "Therefore, there is only one possibility to stabilize the alliance, and that is to let Cao Cao be beaten all the time, and the two sides of the Sun-Liu alliance are growing stronger with each other... This is the foundation of the alliance, which is what I call the bureau! β
As Lu Su said...
Historically, the most fundamental reason and the lowest logic of Dongwu's backstabbing Guan Yu is actually that Guan Yu is too awesome, Jingzhou has been growing, and Dongwu has been beaten...
In other words, the Sun-Liu Alliance did not bring space for Eastern Wu to grow, and the beneficiaries were Shu Han and Guan Yu.
It is precisely based on this that backstabbing Guan Yu has become an event destined to happen in the wheel of history.
After that, the most fundamental reason for Liu Bei's battle of Yiling was the death of Guan Yu.
In other words, even if Lu Su was no longer there at that time, as long as Zhuge Liang, who could understand this "game", was still there, as long as Guan Yu was not dead, he would definitely stabilize this game.
Even if Jingzhou is discarded, it will not break with Sun Quan...
This is a game to save the situation;
And what Guan Lin is doing now is to use his way to maintain this alliance and make this alliance survive!
The Sun-Liu alliance has been a bureau since the beginning, and it is also a knot, an inextricably linked knot...
Every action is about the "knot"!
Domino effect.
At this moment, with Lu Su's pointing, Zhuge Jin suddenly realized, "This is the reason why Guan Lin gave the five hundred 'burning canisters' to Wu Hou... It turned out that Governor Lu had seen through him... Discover him... Would he have thought of such a step? β
"This is what worries me the most..."Lu Su sighed: "He can already see as far away as Zhuge Kongming... Such a son may be beneficial to the alliance and Soochow now, but one day in the future, he will become the biggest constraint on Soochow... is just like Zhuge Kongming in Zhou Gongjin's eyes at the beginning. β
Zhuge Jin gritted his teeth and spoke with difficulty.
"So this is what the Metropolitan Governor has been sparing no effort to promote the marriage of the eldest princess to him?"
"Alas..."Lu Su sighed again...
However, he suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly reminded him seriously: "Don't mention this matter in Dongwu in the future, the eldest princess's temperament, if you know that Guan Yunqi bet on her marriage and refuse her marriage, it will be tantamount to a great shame, I am afraid that this eldest princess will... Yes..."
Lu Su didn't dare to continue, he boasted that he was still relatively accurate in looking at people.
Although this "big tiger" Sun Luban is not very old, Lu Su can already see from her behavior and her character that she is afraid that she is not a person who can easily suffer!
Guan Lin rejected her marriage, but this is probably enough for Sun Luban to make trouble in Jingzhou-
"Alas..."Thinking of this, Lu Su let out another long sigh, this time blaming him... blame him for losing the bet, losing himself, and not getting Dongwu's son-in-law!
It seems that he noticed that Lu Su was in a bad mood.
Zhuge Jin hurriedly changed the topic, "Governor Dadu, now that Luo Tong is going to deliver those five hundred incendiary canisters, I'm worried... Among the Eastern Wu, can anyone dare to put these 500 incendiary canisters? β
This one...
Zhuge Jin successfully diverted Lu Su's attention.
Lu Su pondered for a moment before he opened his mouth: "The letter I sent to the lord has already stated that the power and use of this incendiary canister, as well as the power of the poisonous smoke... Indeed, it takes a lot of courage to set this fire! β
"I have only hope, hope... Wu Hou was able to elect a brave general to carry out this plan and defeat Cao's army... Redeem the unfavorable situation in Huainan. β
β¦

"Thorn-"
Under the moonlight, the light of the Green Dragon Glaive was dazzling, and it broke through the night sky extremely fiercely and slashed the enemy in the crowd.
Blood flew around Guan Yu.
Not long before that, Xu Huang finally gave the order to abandon the military camp Dazhai and evacuate north...
Countless soldiers of the Cao Army stared at the violent "cough" and quickly fled north.
Guan Yu directly ordered the pursuit.
Zhou Cang reminded: "Our army only brought 2,000 people, and all of them were armed with crossbows. I'm afraid that there are many enemy soldiers, and if I can organize them, I will fight against them..."
The word "hit" in the counterattack has not yet blurted out, and Guan Yu's undoubted long howl directly blocked all his mouths.
- "The army of victory is not about the number of people, the defeated army is not afraid of its large number!" β
- "This is what the thief told Guan." β
As soon as the words fell, Guan Yu's red rabbit horse took the lead and chased it directly.
Sure enough...
After such a fire and poisonous smoke, where does Xu Huangjun still have the will to fight...
Just fleeing in a hurry.
It's a pity that their horses have long since left the stables and scattered...
Except for Xu Huang and a few generals riding horses, most of the armor is walking forward!
But on the contrary, Guan Yu and the two thousand Guan family soldiers who caught up behind were riding fast, they were holding repeaters, and they were constantly shooting the enemy with repeaters...
Every time an enemy landed, Guan Yu's Green Dragon Glaive Knife would make up for it, and blood splattered wherever it passed.
Xu Huang always organizes and wants to fight back...
But Guan Yu immediately reined in the horse and turned around, the red rabbit horse was fast, and Cao Jun couldn't catch up... The remaining 2,000 Guan Jiaxiao rode to chase... You have to carry a rain of arrows from a repeater!
After repeating it several times, Xu Huang's mentality was about to collapse.
At this moment, how much he wanted to fight with Guan Yu's knife and axe, just fight so seriously, victory or defeat depends on his ability!
Don't fix these weird moths...
Rectify these tactics that make people mentality!
Pity...
The repeater is still too convenient, there is no need for the knight to pull the bow and take the arrow on the horse, it only needs to be aligned, and then there is a "sudden rush" ...
Ten rounds of one crossbow, a total of fifty crossbows...
This kind is too suitable for cavalry to shoot when chasing infantry.
- The enemy advances, I retreat!
- The enemy retreats, I advance!
This night was difficult for Xu Huang!
His soldiers were chased by Guan Yu for half the night, and his soldiers also fell in rows.
However, Xu Huang clenched his hands tightly, and the big axe could only be waved in the air, which was completely useless in such a chase battle.
Until all fifty of the repeater bolts are fired...
Guan Yu took two thousand horsemen and rode away.
This side, this "breathtaking" night... Guan Yu and the two thousand Guan family horses rode heartily, as if playing Xu Huang and his soldiers and horses.
With crossbow arrows, he left the lives of countless Cao soldiers.
Over there, until they fled to the border of Xiangyang, Xu Huang and a group of soldiers and horses stopped and gasped for breath...
And in the midst of that violent coughing...
There are constantly soldiers who fall because of the poisonous smoke.
The rest, sweating profusely, with tears in their eyes ... As if you don't believe it, everything that happened tonight is true.
The comrades-in-arms who died tonight are also real!
Looking back from afar, the fire in their military camp is still burning, this fire has burned their camp and punished their hearts!
"Guan Yunchang..."
Xu Huang frowned, he looked at the rising fire, and he groaned angrily.
Aggrieved, there is nothing more aggrieved than such a battlefield!
Camp hijacking, fire...
He Xu Huang actually suffered a huge loss on this "fire"!
- "Yun Chang, Yun Chang, you are trying to force me to a dead end!"
With this in mind, suddenly...
"Ahem, cough, cough..."Xu Huang coughed violently, and the poisonous smoke of the white phosphorus burning was surrounding the entire Cao army's camp.
is overwhelming, and even he Xu Huang is not immune to the Chinese army.
In addition, I didn't know this at first, so I had to inhale some...
I didn't feel it all the way away, but at this moment, I suddenly felt fainting and suffocating.
"Ahem, cough, cough..."
"Ahem, cough, cough..."
There were a few more violent coughs, and Xu Huang shouted in that dry, hoarse voice: "Water... Water! β
Don't wait for the guards to hand over the water.
With a "bang", Xu Huang fell to the ground, his face turned purple, which was a sign of poisoning.
"Oh no, General Xu too-"
"Come back to Xiangyang, go back to Xiangyang-"
For a while, this remnant army of Xu Huang was in chaos again, again, again!
No one knows if their generals will leave this world forever, just like the soldiers who were poisoned and fell to the ground and could never wake up again.
No...
It would be humiliating to go like this!

At night, the main hall of the government office in Hefei City is brightly lit.
Sun Quan and Yigan Wenwu were discussing something.
Luo Tong knelt in the middle of the main hall, and he came to report the five hundred "incendiary cans" that had been transported.
Together, he also presented a handwritten letterhead from Lu Su...
And just now, Luo Tong also personally demonstrated a "burning canister", and the fire that ignited in an instant made Sun Quan and a cadre of civil and military officers look sideways and be horrified.
I couldn't help but shout in unison:
- "So flint can still be used like this?"
So...
Now, the topic of discussion between Sun Quan and these civil and military forces is naturally whether to use this "incendiary canister" to try it and sneak attack the enemy camp.
Speaking of...
Cao Cao's soldiers and horses were stationed in two places, one was Shouchun City, and the other was the Feishui camp between Shouchun and Hefei, only more than 40 miles away from Hefei.
In this way, Shouchun City and this camp can be horns of each other, and no matter which place Sun Quan attacks, the other can be directly rescued.
And Cao Cao, as the backbone of Cao Wei's sergeants, is now staying in the Feishui camp...
This is convenient to command nearby, in case the opportunity arises, it can be the first time to break Hefei!
"Let's talk about it, what do you think of these five hundred incendiary canisters?"
Sun Quan asked Zhu Wenwu without hurry.
Gu Yong pondered for a moment, then opened his mouth and said, "You might as well wait first, according to what Luo Tong Gongzi said, this burning tank is filled with only flint and fish oil, so how much oil can there be in five hundred cans?" If this is a surprise attack on Cao's military village, in case... If it can't be burned, or the fire is not big enough, then there is a danger of being surrounded by the enemy and counterattacking, so you might as well wait, if these incendiary canisters are really powerful, it is expected that the Jiangxia battlefield and the Xiangfan battlefield will not be without news! β
As soon as Gu Yong said this, many civil and military officers echoed it...
At the end of the day, this thing is an "unknown" thing.
If you add the robbery camp, hehe... Everyone knows that for so many years in Eastern Wu, only Gan Ning and Gan Xingba have successfully plundered Cao Ying...
That was Sun Quan's idea of giving it a try, and he only gave Gan Ning a hundred people, which was an irreproducible miracle.
In addition, Eastern Wu has never successfully looted Cao Wei's military camp.
What's more, the Feishui camp is garrisoned by Cao Cao!
"My lord, our army has recently suffered a new defeat... When stability! Xu Sheng also said: "If the camp is not robbed, and then it is surrounded, the loss of troops will be small, I am afraid that the morale of the three armies will fall to the bottom overnight, and this battalion cannot be easily robbed!" β
"Yes..."Jiang Qin also sighed: "After all these years, Gan Xingba is the only one who can successfully rob Cao Ying... And since that fight, the protection of Cao Junyingpan at night is far better than that of the day, over the years, we have suffered a lot, and this 'incendiary canister' is the first time to use, it is too risky! β
Xu Sheng and Jiang Qin both lost because of the damn "Bronze Mirror".
It doesn't matter if you lose...
It is inevitable that they will be afraid of Zhang Wenyuan and the group of Shanxi people...
So it will be, and so will the soldiers!
Of course, Xu Sheng and Jiang Qin were not afraid of Zhang Liao, but felt that if they lost this battle for a while, their morale would all collapse, and they would have no chance...
So now, less than foolproof... Can't take any chances.
Sure enough, as soon as Xu Sheng and Jiang Qin expressed their positions, they agreed with the civil and military forces.
Sun Quan also nodded slowly, feeling reasonable.
"It's just that Governor Lu repeatedly emphasized in his letterhead that this is an opportunity, and if it is lost, I am afraid it is..."
didn't wait for Sun Quan to finish speaking.
"Hahaha... Hahahaha..."
Suddenly, a burst of rampant laughter rang out outside the door.
Followed by a burly man with a red scarf on his head, domineering and awe-inspiring.
Everyone looked at it, it was Gan Ning!
But when he saw Gan Ning striding in, he couldn't stop laughing, "Hahahaha, hahahaha..."
This laughter was rampant, as if he didn't pay attention to this party and the people in this office.
Sun Quan showed a slight displeasure...
Gu Yong hurriedly asked, "Why is General Gan laughing?" β
With this voice, Gan Ning's smile suddenly retracted, his eyes were bright, and he said coldly, "Am I laughing? Didn't you hear it? β
This...
Xu Sheng hurriedly asked, "Who is Xingba laughing at?" β
"Hahahaha..."With Gan Ning's loud laugh again, he raised his voice, "I'm not laughing at someone, I'm laughing at everyone sitting in this courtroom..."
As soon as this statement came out...
Everyone was shocked.
Gan Ning's voice continued, "The incendiary canister has just been tried, how powerful is it, everyone's hearts are like mirrors, can you burn the enemy camp, can only I, Gan Ning, see it?" Governor Lu repeatedly emphasized that you should not miss the opportunity, but you, in the face of such a good opportunity, are you still discussing here? In my opinion, even if you talk about it until tomorrow's dawn, I'm afraid there will be no result! β
"And tomorrow, the war reports of Xiangfan and Jiangxia will be sent back, and Cao Jun will be prepared, by that time, these five hundred burning canisters? What's the use? Hum... Wait, you will wait, wait... Hahahaha... Hahahaha..."
After a cold snort, Gan Ning looked around at everyone here with disdain, he looked like he hated iron but not steel, and he said fiercely, "I was still thinking in front of the door, if Guan Yunqi sent these 'incendiary canisters' to his father Guan Yu, then Guan Yu would definitely not hold such a meeting, he would directly lead a cavalry and personally burn Cao Wei's battalion!" This so-called - the opportunity must not be lost, the time will never come! But..."
With the word "may", Gan Ning's eyes looked around again, and his tone was even more disdainful, "Zhugong, open your eyes and see, Zhugong, what are you doing?" Then Guan Yunchang knows that it is a fighter? Don't you know? Are you stupid? Or is it bad? Is it Dongwu but if you want to win a game, the princes must be desperately obstructed! What kind of hatred do the princes have with the lord and the Eastern Wuββ"
Gan Ning's words were higher than the other, and the words were sharper than the other...
And these words made the whole audience silent!
One by one, I can't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into...
Naturally, this also includes his grandson's "right".
It's, it's shamefulβ
