Chapter 91: Unreasonable
The wars in Jingnan, Jiaozhou, and even on the river have all been decayed.
Wu itself was at a disadvantage in terms of the number of troops, morale, and quality of generals, and it also had an advantage in local operations, but as a result, this important advantage such as logistics and supply was destroyed because of the divine operation of his own family.
As a result, the Wei army pressed the Wu people to fight in various places, except for the dangerous checkpoints, the rest of the places were vulnerable, and the Wei army captured more and more places.
And the Wei army could continuously transport supplies and even reinforcements from Jiangbei and Yizhou.
The army in the south and middle is also ready to move at this moment, and the general Huo Yi, who has just accepted the emperor's canonization, has returned to his own territory, is reorganizing the army, and is preparing to go on the expedition.
Lu Kang felt that he could no longer be beaten passively.
Wang Ji, a dog thief, mainly fights a step-by-step encroachment, and the most serious thing is the impact of these battles.
After being beaten passively in this way, all the soldiers and officials heard was the news that the Wei army had captured something and where.
Although the important levels have not fallen, where can these people distinguish what is important and what is not?
In their opinion, it is that the Wei people are like a broken bamboo and are constantly winning, while the Wu State is losing consecutive battles and is almost finished.
Such pessimism enveloped the entire state of Wu, and the consequence was that everyone was reluctant to fight anymore.
Defections and surrenders of generals and officials began to occur in various localities.
Lu Kang believes that if this continues, the will to fight of the entire Wu State will collapse, and it is necessary to attack.
And now that the battle line of Wei is very long, Lu Kang wants to attack the opponent's Xiakou and Jiangling with a naval army, not to say whether it can be defeated, the main purpose is to let the other party know that Wu can not only be passively cut by you, but also go out to take a bite, don't be so excessive!!
After meeting with the two veteran generals, both of them also recognized Lu Kang's ability and decided to follow his strategy.
Immediately, the tide of the battle began to change.
Wang Ji was the first to discover this, he found that the Shi Ji Legion had been readjusted, he had originally deployed his troops on various important checkpoints and cities to Jiaozhou to block Wenqin, and after Wenqin entered Jiaozhou, he tried to regain control of those places.
But now, the Shi Ji Legion suddenly calmed down, and took the initiative to give up fighting with Wen Qin and others for important intersections, and gathered directly, with the appearance of a decisive battle.
Wang Ji quickly changed his strategy and gathered the troops he sent to attack the city to his side, lest the other party directly attack his headquarters with the main force, thus burying the current good situation.
As Wang Ji expected, as soon as Wang Ji began to gather the army, Ding Feng led the elite and began to kill his main army.
Behind them, the door opened.
This is simply giving up the rear and telling Wang Ji that Naigong is not guarding today, and he is going to fight to the death with you!!
If the commander of this army is not Wang Ji, but Deng Ai, then the Wu State is afraid that it will be destroyed.
Deng Ai really dared to bypass the other party's army and kill Jianye directly.
But Wang Ji was cautious, and the enemy's crazy strategy made him more worried, he didn't fight hard with Ding Feng, and began to shrink his front.
At this time, Lu Kang led the elite of his naval army and traveled a long distance to Baqiu, where he crossed the river to Jiangbei.
The battle between Jingnan and Jiangmen did not affect the situation in the construction industry in the slightest.
Jianye is still the same.
Sun Xiu sat on the top seat, and the ministers sat around him.
They were talking about the war.
"General Wu Yan sent troops privately, for the sake of fame, regardless of the overall situation, buried the elite army in vain, our naval army occupies the advantage, but several times defeated the Wei army, Wei Miao is cowardly, and he does not dare to fight the enemy head-on until now!!"
Zhang Bu sat on the top seat and squirted saliva out.
He looked quite agitated, his eyes full of anger.
Wu State fell into a disadvantage in Jingnan, they can accept it, after all, land warfare, in the face of the enemy's two major armies, it is normal to not be able to fight, but in terms of water warfare, they actually lost to the Wei army twice, which makes everyone unacceptable.
That's what we're best at, so how can we lose to the enemy?
Zhang Bu always felt that Lu Kang was going against him.
Lu Kang didn't want to make contributions on the front line, so he found someone to replace him, and now those people have failed miserably, in Zhang Bu's opinion, this is a very good opportunity to take the opportunity to defeat Lu Kang and let himself replace them as commanders.
At this moment, he is leading his henchmen to loudly slander the soldiers on the river and attack those generals.
The crowd gossiped and belittled those people as worthless.
It seems that as long as you change someone casually, you can easily win.
The voices in the temple were particularly noisy.
Sun Xiu couldn't help frowning.
Zhang Bu continued: "Your Majesty, the defeat in the water war, this is unacceptable to none of us, these commanders should be dealt with today, even the people who recommended them cannot be let go, and today's Jianye is shaken."
"Do you know Jianye was shocked?!"
Suddenly, someone interrupted Zhang Bu.
Zhang Bu raised his head and saw Lu Kai, the general of the expedition to the north with an angry face.
The situation of Wu and Wei is a little different, the four expeditions and four towns of Wei are guarded in various places, but many of Wu's generals are actually honorary officials.
That is, in the war, you can lead the troops to the battle, and the rest of the time you are hanging on the rest of the duties.
Lu Kai was sitting among the ministers at the moment, and his eyes were extremely unkind when he looked at Zhang Bu.
He opened his mouth and said: "The matter of the water war is just some small defeat! ”
"They said at the beginning that their strategy was to block the enemy, not to take the initiative to defeat the enemy, was their strategy successful? Did the enemy break through their defenses ?! ”
"General Wu fought to the end, and he did not hesitate to contribute to the country by deceit, how can you be humiliated?!"
Lu Kai was really angry, he said loudly: "The two defeats were originally just small losses, our strength did not suffer too many losses, and even delayed the enemy's offensive, but it was because of you villains!" ”
"You're not incompetent, you're just selfish and vicious!"
"At this time, are you still thinking about how to fight for power?! Do you have to use this to your advantage? We should have preached the success of our strategy, and we should have appeased the generals who died fighting for our country, but it was because of you people! ”
"You deliberately slander the war, create a situation of defeat in the war, chill the upper and lower levels, and the people are terrified, all for your selfish desires!"
Lu Kai gritted his teeth and looked at Sun Xiu, who was on the throne, "Your Majesty, these people can be executed!" ”
Zhang Bu is different from Pu Yangxing, he has always tried to maintain a friendly relationship with the big clan, and at this moment, seeing Lu Kai's spearhead directly pointed at him, he was shocked and angry, hurriedly jumped up, pointed at Lu Kai and said: "You are trying to clear your clan brother's name!" ”
"Who doesn't know, all this is caused by Lu Kang."
"You are afraid that he will be questioned, so that's why you are like this!"
Zhang Bu looked at Sun Xiu and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, the Wei thieves are powerful, but their naval army is not like this, we could have defeated them directly, why do anything to delay the enemy?!" ”
Sun Xiu looked at the two of them and pursed his lips.
"Zhang Qing, Wu Yan and others died for the country, accusing them of incompetence, it is a bit too much, pass on the edict, chase the generals who died in battle, and crown their heirs as marquis!"
Zhang Bu lowered his head.
Sun Xiu said: "The battle is originally a mutual victory and defeat, the enemy has been blocked by us, the strategy has been achieved, this is victory, there is no need to say anything about big losses, do such things that disturb the hearts of our own army." ”
"Yui"
Zhang Bu's voice suddenly became a lot weaker.
Sun Xiu looked at Lu Kai again and said, "Lu Qing, the minister of the same dynasty, should rule the world together, how can he open his mouth to execute his colleagues?" ”
Lu Kai's expression also softened a little, and he saluted and pleaded guilty.
Sun Xiu also instructed everyone to cooperate more and be united and harmonious, and then left the court.
Zhang Bu was about to leave, but Lu Kai chased after him.
"General"
Although Zhang Bu's expression was not good-looking, after all, Sun Xiu had just commanded, so he had to squeeze out a smile, "The arguments just now are all for state affairs, don't care about the general." ”
Lu Kai also nodded.
"Now we still have to focus on the affairs of the world, general, we have never had the idea of dealing with you, we just want you to know that you really despise the Wei army too much."
"It's different from the Chibi now."
"The Wei army is not good at water warfare, just because they are more ferocious in land warfare, not that they don't understand water warfare at all, and the Cao Wei naval army in Huainan, Jingzhou, and Qingxu is much weaker than us?"
"You always treat things today with the views of the past, this can't be successful, my brother didn't let you command in the first place, it was because of your contempt."
"The Wei army now has many fewer warships than us, but its morale is higher, with sufficient food and supplies."
"Have you ever seen their crossbows? The power and range are above us, and we really shouldn't be underestimated. ”
Hearing Lu Kai's words, Zhang Bu nodded, his face was full of smiles, and he seemed to agree with the other party's words very much, but what he thought in his heart, only he knew.
And a minister beside Zhang Bu couldn't help but say at this moment: "Neither the warship nor the bow and crossbow are important, the important thing is the general, there are no generals in Wei who can fight in water." ”
Hearing this, Lu Kai shook his head with a wry smile, "Who said there wasn't?" In the past, there may have been very few, but now, there are so many soldiers who have run past us, don't these people understand? ”
"At the beginning, Sun Qi and Sun Jun made a mess, so many soldiers ran to the Wei State, and now they are the ones who come to attack us, just that Tang Zhi, is the general confident to defeat him?"
Hearing these words, Zhang Bu pondered for a long time before he said: "Duke Lu, Your Majesty has an order, and you have to be called the old man." ”
The smile on Lu Kai's face gradually froze.
He shook his head and turned away.
