The conversation with his son Guan Lin has surrounded Guan Yu's heart for a long time.

Finally, once again reliving those words in his mind, Guan Yu, who was galloping across the red rabbit horse, couldn't help but sigh softly and raised his eyes to look at the clear blue sky.

According to Yunqi, the most dangerous places are often the most flowery places.

There is also the sentence "Dad, the place you should focus on is not the front position, but the back... The land of Jingzhou bordering Soochow! ”

Guan Yuyou remembered that after hearing his son's words, he believed it seven points but also questioned it with three points, and he asked rhetorically: "Will Sun Quan definitely backstab?" ”

Guan Lin's answer was - "Sure! Certain! And for sure! ”

Precisely... Because of these words, Guan Yu immediately ordered troops and led the army all the way south.

"Father..."Guan Ping pointed to the official road in front of him and said loudly: "At the current speed, we will be able to reach Jiangling City in half a day!" ”

But Guan Yu turned a deaf ear to Guan Ping's words, he did not answer, but was silent for a while.

The condensed Dan Feng's eyes suddenly tightened.

"Divert to the east—"

Guan Yu gave the latest order resolutely!

"Ahh Are you going to help Gangneung? How... Going to be rerouted east? East... That... It's Jiangxia there.

"Dad..."At this time, Guan Yinping hurriedly reminded, "If you go east, even if you rush to the waterway one step earlier, you will go far... It's tantamount to going the other way, so how far does it take to get to Gangneung? ”

With Guan Yinping's words, Guan Yu raised his eyes solemnly, at this moment, the open and closed Danfeng's eyes revealed undoubted and determined.

Accompanied by it, Guan Yu's voice like a vast sun and clouds chanted one after another: "How did my father say it? Want... Saved Gangneung? ”

Yes...

This time it's Guan Ping, Guan Yinping, Zhou Cang, and Wang Fu.

Everyone was stunned in unison.

On the contrary, it was Guan Yu, he smiled, laughed very crisply, and with it, he added, "Guan Mou has never been good at defense, but Guan Mou is good at attacking people for thousands of miles-"

…

…

Winter has gone to spring, and Soochow has returned to its former flowers.

In particular, the paulownia flowers that bloom all over the sky are dyed pink and purple by these flowers, and even the wind is full of fragrance.

Sun Quan was in a good mood, he was enjoying the flowers in the garden behind the palace...

The reason why there is such a sunny mood.

It's because according to the plan, and according to the agreement of Wei and Wu, today... General Lü Meng will lead an army to attack Changsha and Jiangling!

Because it was a waterway, the warship traveled extremely fast.

Sun Quan pondered, after tomorrow, there should be good news back the day after tomorrow, right?

When the time comes...

Under his Sun Quan's rule, Eastern Wu reached Huainan in the north and Jingzhou in the west, and he would surpass his father and brother and expand the territory of Eastern Wu to a level that had never been seen before.

also pushed the prestige of his Sun Quan to the highest, surpassing the highest existence of his father and brother!

Only... This step was not glorious, and it was somewhat petty.

But, so what?

The so-called success and defeat of the king, the world only judges heroes by success or failure, if it is greater than the above-board justice, back then... Xiang Yu, who was born in this land, won the battle between Chu and Han.

There will be no 400-year-old glorious Han Dynasty!

Hehe...

Sun Quan smiled lightly and stood in front of the flowers.

He smelled the budding flowers, his turquoise eyes narrowed slightly, and he sighed: "After a while, this paulownia flower will bloom, and the sparrow should lay eggs..."

Gu Yong on the side echoed with a smile: "Yes, yesterday the minister also saw the wild male duck in the reeds by the river lingering on the water surface and calling alertly, indicating that the female duck is holding chicks, and there are wild geese... Eggs that need to be picked up with both hands..."

"Now in our Jiangdong, which riverside has birds? Which woods has a bobcat? There are also wild badgers, foxes, little hedgehogs... Even a family of wild boars living in a cave is best known to those innocent children. ”

Gu Yong and Sun Quan chatted about the sky, seemingly irrelevant to the current situation, but between the words, there was a touch of "willows and flowers" artistic conception, as if telling the story of what was happening in Jiangdong.

That's when it happened.

"My lord..."

It was Zhou Tai and Xu Sheng who came in a hurry, and the two of them received the information from Xizuo and reported it as soon as possible.

"General Zhou and General Xu are in such a hurry, I think there is the latest information from Jingzhou."

Sun Quan's tone was passionate, as if he had been looking forward to the arrival of the two of them for a long time.

"It's Jingzhou's intelligence..."Xu Sheng hurriedly reported, "According to reliable sources, Jingzhou's soldiers and horses have all marched north, and now in Changsha County, Jingnan, only three thousand soldiers led by Liao Li are stationed, and it is expected that the city is empty inside and outside, as for Jiangling, there are seven thousand people stationed there, but it is the first waste general under Liu Bei... His brother-in-law Mi Fang and the vulnerable Mi family army, this is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. ”

With Xu Sheng's words, Zhou Tai also said: "The news I got here is the same as General Xu's, plus the beacon tower was burned by Guan Yu, and now... It was a good opportunity for my Eastern Wu to raid Jingzhou and recover Jingzhou in one fell swoop. ”

Zhou Tai's tone was very heavy, and the speed of his speech was also very urgent.

It's just that, to Sun Quan's ears, isn't this very good?

Why are you so eager?

Gu Yong also heard a little intriguing, and hurriedly asked, "Two generals, is there anything else?" ”

This...

Zhou Tai and Xu Sheng looked at each other, and then with a "sigh", the two generals sighed at the same time.

It was Xu Sheng who spoke first: "Just now, General Zhu Zhi sent a letter because the beacon tower was burned by Guan Yu, which caused Lu Meng's right governor to be suspicious, so... After hesitating again and again, the deadline for the sneak attack on Jingzhou agreed with Cao Wei has been delayed! ”

"What?"

After hearing Xu Sheng's words, Sun Quan's eyes exploded almost instantly.

He looked at Gu Yong incredulously, and then at Zhou Tai and Xu Sheng.

"What do you mean? Lu Meng: He didn't send troops? ”

"It's... It's..."Zhou Tai hurriedly added: "The news I got is the same as what General Xu Sheng said, and now... The navy army disguised as a merchant in Panyang Lake, especially... Especially if you don't move! Combine... And didn't march as promised! ”

As soon as these words came out, Sun Quan's expression changed abruptly with the naked eye.

The originally sunny cheeks only experienced a momentary change, and then they became cloudy and white as paper.

Immediately...

I only heard the sound of "Qiang Chang", and it was Sun Quan who pulled out the sword "Purple Lightning" on his waist and smashed it on the ground.

It's been four months!

No... It was fourteen years, and it was a full fourteen years since his grandson succeeded to the throne.

He worked hard to find, forbear, check and balance, and waited hard for this opportunity to break through Jiangdong and make his Sun family famous all over the world.

But now... Surprise attack on Jingzhou, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is close at hand, it is imperative, but... But he, Lu Meng, turned out... Unexpectedly... Retreated!

"The Lord is angry!" Almost at the same time, Zhou Tai and Xu Sheng opened their mouths together.

Zhou Tai hurriedly knelt on one knee and picked up the second-ranked "Purple Lightning" sword among Sun Quan's six swords, he held the sword up with both hands and respectfully handed it to Sun Quan.

It's just that...

Sun Quan didn't take back the Purple Electric Sword, he just said lightly, "Gu He was angry? ”

This...

It seems that this sentence has frozen the atmosphere here to the extreme... For a moment, a chill swept in, as if everyone's cheeks were covered with a film that had been soaked in frost for 10,000 years!

Even the pink-purple paulownia flower seems... It has also shrunk and shrunk because of this extremely cold atmosphere.

"My lord..."

Xu Sheng and Zhou Tai spoke in unison for the second time, they were still talking, but Sun Quan took the lead.

"When will the sword given out by the lonely be taken back?"

As he spoke, Sun Quan pushed the "Purple Electricity" Sword in front of Zhou Tai, "General Zhou, you immediately rush to Panyang Lake for seven hundred miles, rush to the Governor of Lone Nayou, you give him this 'Purple Electric Sword', and say that Lone wants him to march immediately, and Lone wants him to use this 'Purple Lightning' sword to cut off Guan Yu's head!" ”

Yes... Yes...

Zhou Tai was shocked, he didn't expect that Sun Quan had entrusted him with such a heavy burden.

It's just that...

Zhou Tai subconsciously opened his mouth, but it seemed that when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't speak for some special reason.

- "What do you mean by that?"

Zhou Tai is in a dilemma here.

Sun Quan pursed his lips and said for Zhou Tai: "General Zhou wants to ask, if Lu Meng still doesn't march, then what?" ”

- "Yes..."

Zhou Tai just replied with such a word in his heart.

He wanted to ask this, but because this was too sensitive, it might hurt a governor, so... He hesitated.

He really doesn't want to see it again, the generals of Soochow don't die on the battlefield, but in the court!

"My lord... The last general..."

Zhou Tai's voice had just groaned, and Sun Quan's words like iron and stone had already suppressed his words.

- "If, he doesn't march!" ”

- "Then you will use this purple electric sword to cut off the head of Lu Meng, and then sacrifice the flag with his head, and you, General Xu Sheng, and General Zhu Zhi will take over his soldiers and horses, and immediately lead the army to Jingzhou!" ”

Speaking of this, Sun Quan's voice paused.

Soon, though, his expression became a little more solemn.

"Tomorrow morning, I will hear the news that the army has opened and has come to Changsha City, and the day after tomorrow, I will hear that Changsha City has fallen, and the next day, I will hear that Jiangling City has been conquered——"

Sun Quan has already set phased goals for this army that "raided Jingzhou".

He's waited for this day, he's waited too long—

And as Sun Quan's words fell, Xu Sheng and Zhou Tai gave up their hands one after another, "Nuo..."

Again... Gu Yong, watching the two generals slowly walk away with Sun Quan's "Purple Lightning" sword...

His eyes rolled, and he was about to say something, when suddenly... An urgent message came.

"Newspaper—"

"At the Xiangfan battlefield... Fancheng, Yuncheng, Pinglu suddenly caught fire... The fire is raging, but because the horses are on the periphery, the cause of the fire is unknown, the Jingzhou army has surrounded the three cities, and our army can't spy on the horses, but... Undoubtedly, the battle in Xiangfan has begun! ”

The news was reported by Soochow's Relief Camp.

This annoying battalion is responsible for scavenging for all kinds of information.

Their intelligence has always been known for its rigor, and in addition to their commanders, Sun Shangxiang and Zhu Ran, they are directly responsible to Sun Quan.

So...

Sun Quan did not doubt these words at all, nor did he doubt the imminent situation on the battlefield of Xiangfan.

Gu Yong raised his voice: "Sure enough, the fight started, the fire in the three cities, it seems... It's so intense—"

"Hehe..."Hearing Gu Yong say this, Sun Quan smiled, his smile was very gloomy, the feeling of not smiling, as if... Sun Quan had already sensed that someone was about to come in a big disaster. "Burn, burn... As long as this battle starts, whether it is Cao Cao's clansmen or the Guan family father and son, there will be no room to spare! ”

"Burn it... Burn it, let Xiangfan, let them both... All of them will be reduced to ashes! ”

Oh, yes...

Soochow's intelligence is lagging behind after all.

But Sun Quan is right, once this battle begins, there is no room to stay.

But there was one thing he couldn't have imagined anyway...

Then again, who would have thought?

Who would have thought?

This battle... As soon as it began, it was over!

It's still so turbulent at the end!

It's so tragic!

…

…

"Will be outside, the king's order will not be affected!"

In the distance, I heard Lu Meng's voice coming from the big tent on the shore of Zhuyang Lake.

Here...

Hundreds of warships disguised as merchant ships have already been laid out in a row, ready to go, today... The wind is blowing just right... The resistance of the Yangtze River is not great, and it is a good time to attack!

It's just that...

Because of Lu Meng's hesitation and worry, this naval army that was ready to attack did not dare to make a rash move.

Lu Meng's voice in the big tent came out again, "What's more, I have the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers under my command, Wu Hou is in Wu County, how does he know that the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly... Whether or not to march does not depend on the agreement, but on the timing! ”

Seem... Without Sun Quan by his side, Lu Meng in the military camp was tough.

I haven't seen you for three days, and I'm impressed... He Lu Meng belongs to the halfway monk, and because of this, he reads a lot of miscellaneous books, and various schools of thought will dabble in some...

This also makes him often more thoughtful when formulating strategies.

It's just that...

Xu Sheng and Zhou Tai, who were also in the big tent, frowned, especially Zhou Tai, only heard a "whoosh", he pulled out the "purple lightning" sword on his waist, the sword did not point to Lu Meng, but Zhou Tai stretched out his index finger and pointed at Lu Meng angrily, "My mother, I really want to cut off your head with this purple electric sword as the lord said!" ”

Zhou Tai's words are a threat, but they are also a reminder of irritability...

Lu Meng is the best at attacking the heart, how can he not understand Sun Quan's heart.

- "It seems... I overestimated Wu Hou's patience, Wu Hou is going to force me to send troops..."

Thinking of this, Lu Meng's expression became a little solemn, and he muttered: "Wu Hou is so anxious! ”

"Now I'm more anxious with General Xu!" Zhou Tai roared in that roaring voice as always. "We're in a hurry... Did I cut you in the end! ”

"Can't be cut-" At this time, a person outside the big tent came and stepped into it, it was Zhu Zhi.

He glanced at the purple electric sword glowing with cold light, but as if he was trying to suppress the emotion in his heart that was more urgent than everyone else, he reminded: "The entire naval army was trained by General Lu, and the conquest of Jingzhou, if you want to succeed, the only one who can lead the army is General Lu!" ”

This...

Lu Meng didn't expect that Zhu Zhi, who disagreed with him everywhere, would speak for him at such a critical moment!

"To fight or not to fight? How do you tell us to get on the main bus? ”

Zhou Tai was in a hurry...

Xu Sheng also frowned, and was about to open his mouth to persuade him.

Who would have thought, at this moment...

A scout quickly broke into the tent and fell to one knee when he saw the generals.

"Newspaper... Newspaper..."

His voice was hoarse, as if he had been greatly surprised, and he repeated the words in his mind dozens of times, and suddenly... I was dumbfounded, and I couldn't open my mouth.

"The Beacon City... A sea of inferno... Beacon City... Refine... A sea of inferno fire—"

The scout stumbled and could only utter a few key words...

This made Zhou Tai anxious, "What kind of beacon fire?" What a sea of purgatory fire, you... You've made it clear! ”

Lu Meng suddenly realized: "Is it Jingzhou?" Fancheng was not flooded... Instead, it was attacked by fire? ”

"It's not just Fancheng!" The scout continued, "Yuncheng, Pinglu City... All... All burned, 100,000 Wei troops... Nine times out of ten... It's all in this sea of purgatory, I'm afraid... I'm afraid I won't survive! ”

This...

Although because of the nervousness of the scouts, intelligence, information... Some disorders.

But these few words are still enough for everyone in the big tent here to recognize a fact, 100,000 Wei troops, eight or nine out of ten died in the fire, that... Fancheng fell, Yuncheng fell, Pinglu fell... That... The entire Xiangfan has completely belonged to Jingzhou!

That...

With a "bang", Lu Meng subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and for a while, he didn't dare to continue to think about it.

On the other hand, Zhou Tai, Xu Sheng, Zhu Zhi...

The three of them looked at each other, and they were also stunned and surprised.

What's going on?

What's going on?

Isn't it a diversion of water? Why is it suddenly in flames?

Who can tell them what the hell is going on?

Zhou Tai, Xu Sheng, Zhu Zhi, that blank gaze could only turn to Lu Meng's face in the end...

It seems, all of a sudden... The tent was silent.

No one mentioned the "raid on Jingzhou", and no one mentioned the great truth of "whether the king's life will be accepted or not".

In their view, there is actually an established fact.

That... It was because of their surprise attack on Jingzhou because of the "tacit understanding" agreement with Cao Wei, and because of the diversion of water and irrigation... The frontal battlefield dragged the main force of Jingzhou, so they could surprise from behind and stab them in the back.

This is a "stinky and shameless" era -

This is an era of "winning and losing"-

They are determined to bear the name of "rat generation", and they must do it... Backstabbing Jingzhou!

This is the only way to achieve global victory at the lowest cost.

Can... Right now...

Finished? The frontal battlefield is over? And they still raid a hammer? Raid a caterpillar? Can this still be called a raid?

It's like...

Whether it is Zhou Tai, Xu Sheng, or Zhu Zhi, they all realize that the situation has changed, and the strategy has changed with the situation... Perhaps change must also be made.

Who would have thought, at this moment.

"Pass my military order, immediately order the troops, and the soldiers will be divided into two ways... Raid Changsha and Gangneung! ”

Lu Meng is calling the shots...

It's just that his words stunned everyone.

Ahead, the big guys are in a hurry to attack, but you, Lu Meng, have been obstructing.

How now... The big guys are hesitating, hesitating, helpless... But you Lu Meng want to attack again?

What is this Lu Meng God babbling about?

"The Right Governor... It's not child's play! Xu Sheng reminded first.

"yes!" Zhou Tai also frowned, "This change happened too suddenly, or... Go and report to the lord first? ”

"Now you know that marching isn't child's play?" Lu Meng replied to the two of them angrily, and then he explained solemnly: "The reason why I didn't attack was because I wondered why Guan Yu took the initiative to burn the beacon tower, I was worried that the Guan family father and son had already taken the initiative to spy on the purpose of our army and take precautions in advance... But now... I get it! ”

"What do you know?"

"What Guan Lin thinks in his heart, I know eight or nine, this beacon tower is burned for us to see, just to make our army hold back and buy time for him to take Xiangfan in one fell swoop..."

Speaking of this, Lu Meng paused for a moment and continued to analyze carefully, "He Guan Lin is still powerful, I can't think of it, the lord can't think of it, and Cao Cao can't think of it, he can break through Fancheng overnight, or in such a way of purgatory fire, but even so, he must have dispatched a large number of soldiers and horses, that is to say, the defense is empty, and it is impossible to have too many defenders!" Next, he is bound to come back quickly... We must take Jiangling and Changsha before he returns! ”

Lu Meng said a lot, but in Xu Sheng's ears, there was another key point, which was not explained.

"But..."Xu Sheng hurriedly asked, "But Cao Jun was defeated... They can't form a containment in Jingzhou head-on... I..."

Without waiting for Xu Sheng to finish speaking, Lu Meng's voice chanted again, "It is precisely because of the defeat that we must take Jiangling and Changsha, which is to frustrate the spirit of the Jingzhou army, but also to boost the morale of the Cao army, otherwise... Once Cao Wei was beaten by the Jingzhou army and lost his fighting spirit and fighting spirit, then... There are no eggs under the nest, facing today's Jingzhou, Jiangdong... Is there still a chance? ”

Lu Meng's tone became heavier and heavier, and the more he spoke, the more urgent and impatient his tone became.

His expression was as if it was - all in one battle!

No... That's not accurate, the truth is... He Lu Meng, or Jiangdong, only has this one chance!

Only this time the main force of Jingzhou won a big victory, and there was no chance to return to help.

"Attack, attack now!"

Lu Meng didn't shirk it anymore, he snatched the purple electric sword, his expression was solemn and nervous, and his every word was sonorous and urgent.

"Within a quarter of an hour, if a ship cannot pull the anchor and set sail, the leader of the ship will immediately behead it!"

"If there are those who can't reach Changsha County on the left today, and if they can't reach Gangneung City on the right tomorrow... Chop, chop, chop..."

Three slashes in a row, Lu Meng's muscles were flying.

His whole body moved.

The nervousness of his body made Zhu Zhi, Zhou Tai, and Xu Sheng stunned...

It was as if, in an instant, what they urgently felt was four words

- Dead lips and cold teeth!

…

…

Black clouds crush the city and want to destroy it!

As Liao Li, the Taishou of Changsha County, he would never have dreamed that Dongwu would really launch a warship to kill Changsha County.

He wouldn't have thought about it... As stationed in Changsha, there were only 1,300 soldiers.

That's right...

Three thousand soldiers were stationed, and that was preached to the outside world, in fact... That's all there is to 1,300 people who can fight!

And more than 1,000 of them are about to face the most turbulent offensive of hundreds of warships and more than 50,000 soldiers in Eastern Wu...

Wait a minute...

Liao Li suddenly thought of something.

In this moment, he thought of someone...

One is in Changsha, no, he has been in Changsha for more than half a year.

In addition to these more than 1,300 soldiers, he is the only man who theoretically, seems to be, maybe, as if, as if, maybe, seems to be somewhat reliable!

- Hao Zhao!

The new city and outer city of Changsha City... What's special is that Guan Lin instructed this kid to repair it under the condition of 'not bad money'!

Right now... When it comes to testing him, he also tests Changsha City... It's time for the real ingredients!

On the other hand, Hao Zhao...

He stood at the head of the outer city, looking at the 50,000 Dongwu sailors who were landing in front of him.

Call...

With a heavy exhalation, Hao Zhao only chanted six words lightly:

"I'm always ready—"

…
