"Is this really Lu Xun? Why did this Ten Thousand Year King Eight take the initiative today? ”

Seeing the battle report delivered to the pet, Ma Jian was a little stunned for a while.

In my impression, Lu Xun has always been a cautious and good defender, and he will not take the initiative to fight if he can not take the initiative to fight. Especially when he was in Jiangling before, he captured Xu Sheng's son alive in front of the generals of Eastern Wu, and he also stabbed the words and drove back, Lu Xun could not help but not fight.

This kind of performance, the overall image should be more like meeting Prime Minister Sima Xuanwang, who belongs to the 10,000-year-old shrinking turtle. But today Lu Xun suddenly changed his character, not only did he not continue to shrink his head, but took the initiative to attack?

This is like Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang confronting each other in Guanzhong, and then Sima Daguan took the initiative to fight against him.

"It seems that Dongwu has seen that we are planning to attack Wu, and we plan to strike first." Compared with Ma Yan, Li Mu saw it more clearly, he squinted his eyes and calmly analyzed.

"Strike first? Just them? ”

"Yes, I estimate that Lu Xun is even ready to return home with a big defeat in this battle." Li Mu shrugged, seeing that Ma Jian was still curious, so he patiently explained.

"My Han Dynasty has gone through eight years of the Northern Expedition, and now it takes another three years to maintain the relocation of the capital. The entire territory of the Han Dynasty is in urgent need of recuperation from top to bottom, and it is simply impossible to maintain a large-scale war in a short period of time. ”

In contrast, Soochow has also opened up one after another in recent years, and has hardly won. But with Jing Yang's abundance, even at this point, they still have surplus food. ”

"So in this case, Soochow doesn't have much need for recuperation. Therefore, Lu Xun most likely wanted to disturb our rest and recuperate, and forced us to send troops to resist by sending troops to attack. ”

At present, the whole of Yizhou is implementing a decree to reduce taxes, and the mobilization force for war has been reduced to a certain extent. The remaining taxes were also given priority to supply the relocation project and Guanzhong, and there were not many resources to fight the war in a short time.

At this time, Dongwu suddenly entered the Kou, almost stuck in the hands of the Ji and Han wars, when the mobilization ability was the weakest.

And according to the report to Xiang Pet, the troops of Dongwu this time pointed directly at Yidao, and they had a great chance of breaking through the Yangtze River Pass and taking advantage of the situation to enter Shu.

Such a plan is the overall situation in Lu Xun's view, but in Ma Yan's view, it is completely cerebral thrombosis.

"What do you want to do Lu Xun? Just by relying on his own people, how many people do I need to use? Ma Tan scratched his head, a little incredulous that Lu Xun would be so brave.

Although this strategy is fine, but with only the combat power of Eastern Wu, how much energy can the Han army be involved? There is no need for anything else, he Ma Jian personally brought two or three thousand people to the front line, and it was basically safe.

"Since Sun Boyan is so brave, I naturally have to sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman!" Ma Tan nodded slightly, and quickly made a decision after a deep sigh.

Lu Xun has made this attitude, it would be rude for him not to go again.

What's more, Ma Jian has long been tossed by the big and small affairs of Yizhou, and he has been thinking about where there is a war from morning to night. Lu Xun took the initiative to send it to the door at this time, as if he was specially here to solve problems for Ma Tan.

Is there no reason not to go?

"Envoy, you're not going to throw all the work of Yizhou to me again, are you?" Seeing Ma Jian make a decision so simply, Li Mu quickly had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ma Tan turn his head to look at him, with a kind smile on his face.

"Ziwen, you have a bright future, and you are the material for Shangshuling. But it's a pity that your qualifications are still shallow, and you still need more experience, otherwise I'm afraid that the monk book will not be available. ”

"But after all, you and I are friends, and I will give you such an important opportunity to experience Yizhou Mu this time!"

"Do a good job, I'm very optimistic about you!"

After speaking, Ma Jian patted Li Mu on the shoulder, turned around and slipped away. Only Li Mu was left alone in the wind,

"Envoy! You're not a human being! ”

After serving as the pastor of Yizhou for three months, Ma Jian finally got rid of the blessing of 007. After harvesting a wave of Yizhou people's hearts, he immediately became a shopkeeper.

After throwing all the big and small affairs of Yizhou to Li Mu, Ma Tan went straight to Yong'an in the resentful eyes of this old partner.

Ma Tan did not plan to send a large corps this time, but only planned to send out the new recruits of Yong'an's naval division and some government soldiers from Bazhong. After all, Yizhou is really tired in the end, even if Ma Tan wants to send an army, Shu Di can't support it.

However, there is one thing to say, Lu Xun's choice at this time also helped Ma Jian a lot. In November, when the farming season was in the middle of the day, Ma Jian was able to call up the soldiers for compulsory military service as soon as he arrived in Bazhong.

After arriving in Yong'an, he had 3,000 troops in less than ten days. Then Ma Tan pulled up Guan Xing, who had just prepared for the Han army, and joined forces to help Xiang Pet.

At this moment, Guan Xing has only been preparing the water army for less than two months. When he was pulled up by Ma Tan, Guan Xing was worried, and he cautiously agreed to join the expedition at Ma Tan's strong request.

The two sides combined 6,000 soldiers and horses and came all the way east along the waterway of the Yangtze River. In just a few days, Ma Tan arrived at the front line of Yiling.

At this time, the Yidao front line was in the midst of fierce fighting.

Lu Xun has a clear goal this time, that is, to fight a tough battle. Tens of thousands of Wu troops were deployed to invade the Han border in two ways.

One route was led by Ding Fengtong, starting from the public security all the way south, and the army went straight to Linyuan, the Wuling Zhizhi Station. The other road was personally commanded by Lu Xun, advancing from the Jiangling waterway, and the troops were directed at Yidao City.

After receiving the news, Xiang Pet quickly gathered all the water troops to Yidao. Through the two passes of Xie Dongcheng and Yidao City, they tightly guarded the river.

There is no way, so far Ji Han's water army has invested too few resources. Xiang Pet Governor Jingnan has been in charge of Jingnan for several years, and he doesn't even have a building boat in his hands, so he can only let the Dongwu Navy ride his face to provoke.

After Lu Xun's army arrived in Yidao City, the army quickly set up camp. After a short rest of two days, the Wu army launched a fierce offensive.

It was the first time Xiang Zhong saw such a decisive offensive of Dongwu, and he was caught off guard. However, fortunately, Dongwu's combat power gave Xiang Pet time to react, giving him the opportunity to adjust his deployment and re-stabilize the front.

After two days of fighting, the two sides quickly reached a stalemate. On the other side, Ding Feng also led the Eastern Wu soldiers and horses to attack the territory of Wuling and fought with the Wuling Han army.

Overall, Lu Xun's first phase of the offensive was still very smooth. In the case of Xishu's lack of preparation, he basically opened up the situation.

But his success ended there, because at this time, Ma Jian finally arrived at the front line of Yidao.
