Chapter 0538: Lu Xun's Scheme
The reason why Wolf Li came to Qiongdu from the Ox Department was because of the strength of the Han army, after all, the Dongqu Department and the Horse Catching Department were not small tribes, and they would be destroyed if they were destroyed.
Compared with the previous two, the Niu Department also occupies a geographical advantage, and if you really dare to go out of the mountains to confront the Han army, nine times out of ten you will end up with them.
The second is to be afraid of the name of the ghost king, the ghost king stirred up Nanzhong to make thousands of families cry, and the ghost king who eats human flesh and drinks human blood is not a joke.
Wolf Road promised Wolf to take some people out, also out of consideration for sharing risks.
Third, it is forced by the survival of the tribe. Every year, the clansmen who freeze to death in the mountains and starve to death, over the years, the wolf has lost count of how many.
When he saw on the spot that the tribes in Qiongdu could be helped by the Han government, he was really moved at that time.
Now when I heard that Feng Changshi of Yue Qian was actually Feng Langjun who was in the blood alliance with Qiang Hu and Qiang Hu to kill the white horse, I finally understood in my heart.
It's no wonder that the notorious ghost king came to Yueshan, in addition to exterminating the tribes that did not listen to moderation, but he was so good at talking to other tribes.
Not only did they organize them to open up the wasteland for farming, but also divided the land for grazing, and even gave them help.
It turned out that Feng Changshi of Yue Wei was Feng Langjun who was kind to Qiang Hu.
The Han people pay attention to both grace and power, thinking that the ghost king is might, this Feng Langjun must be grace.
Wolf Li felt that he finally understood the joints.
He thought about it, and finally got someone to send a message to the tribe of Hanjia County.
Feng Yong naturally didn't care about the thoughts of the big and small leaders of the Yiren tribe under his hands.
These days, he is taking Jiang Wan around the place.
Jiang Wan came to Yueshan, of course, not just to pass on a message.
Feng Yong became the governor of a county at the age of nineteen, and he was also the actual master of a county, and the prime minister of the Han Dynasty was afraid that he would have little experience and make some trouble, so he immediately sent Jiang Wan over after Yue Wei was pacified.
One is to see if Feng Yong needs help, and the other is to let Jiang Wan think of making up for it if there is a leak.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Wan came to Qiongdu, but found that not only had the chaos been calmed down, but also those unruly Yi people actually obeyed the arrangements of the government and worked with peace of mind.
This surprised him incomparably, and at the same time, his evaluation of Feng Yong was raised by another level.
The prime minister saw that this son could train those Hu Yi in Nanxiang, so he tried to let him come to Yueshan, but he didn't expect him to educate Hu Yi really has a set of skills.
The first batch of Hermes-Epitek finally arrived in Qiongdu by the end of June, along with Amei and a batch of chicken and duck eggs.
Seeing that Feng Yong arranged those people in an orderly manner, Jiang Wan finally put his mind at ease, and then returned to Jincheng with peace of mind.
At the same time, I also brought back three letters of recommendation from Feng Yong.
When he was in Wei County last year, Feng Yong was asked by the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty to take charge of Yueshan, and he was given the privilege of recommending the chief officials of the three counties of Yueshan.
Now that Yueshan has been truly pacified, and Jiang Wan happened to arrive, Feng Yong took the opportunity to promote Zhang Wei as the county magistrate of Qiongdu, Huang Chong as the county magistrate of Suqi, and Wang Xun as the magistrate of Taideng.
Now the three of them are temporarily supervising the three counties as lieutenants.
The land of the three counties in the Sunshui River Valley was sent out by Feng Yong.
Just when the Great Han was completely pacifying Nanzhong and enjoying this hard-won peace, Cao Wei and Dongwu became a little restless.
In the fourth year of Jianxing, Jiaozhou assassin Shi Xie died, Sun Quan felt that Jiaozhou was too remote, not easy to govern, and the power of the Shi family was too large, so he divided Jiaozhou into two, with Hepu County as the boundary, Guangzhou in the north, and Jiaozhou in the south.
Guangzhou governs Panyu, Jiaozhou governs the dragon (that is, the east of Hanoi, Vietnam).
Ling Lu Dai was the assassin of Guangzhou, Dai Liang was the assassin of Jiaozhou, and at the same time, the son of Ren Shixie was the Taishou of Jiuzhen County.
This incident aroused Shihui's dissatisfaction, relying on Shixie's favor to the people of Jiaozhou during his lifetime, he rebelled against Sun Wu's order, called himself Jiaozhi Taishou, and sent Shijia's soldiers to garrison Haikou to prevent Dai Liang from entering Jiaozhou to take office.
At the same time, he secretly sent a letter to the Han Dynasty, wanting to express his surrender to the Han Dynasty through the Xu family, in order to obtain the help of the Han Dynasty.
After the prime minister of the Han Dynasty pacified Nanzhong, he asked Li Huiyao to lead the history of Jiaozhou's assassination, which was intentionally involved in Jiaozhou.
Unexpectedly, Shihui could not even suppress the soldiers of the local clans in Jiaozhou, and he was suddenly disappointed, and when he learned that Feng Yong, the Marquis of Guannei, was not optimistic about Shihui, so he decided to hold the army for the time being.
When the news of Cao Pi's death came, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he did not rashly meddle in the affairs of Jiaozhou, so he did not make enemies with Dongwu.
At the same time, according to Feng Yong's proposal, he personally wrote to Sun Quan, the lord of Wu, and suggested that Han and Wu join forces with the Northern Expedition.
The letter not only elaborated on the benefits of sugarcane, but also promised to pay a high price for the raw sugar in Jingzhou, and gave a batch of woolen cloth to the lord of Wu.
Sun Quan was very happy when he received the letter from the prime minister of the Han Dynasty and summoned his ministers to discuss.
The ministers unanimously felt that they were taking advantage of Cao Pi's new funeral to crusade against Cao Wei, and at the right time, Sun Quan made up his mind, and at the same time let the news be transmitted to Lu Xun, who was guarding Jiangling, as quickly as possible.
Lu Xun was taken aback when he received the news from Wuchang, and hurriedly asked to go to Wuchang to meet King Wu on the grounds of explaining the Jiangling farmland to King Wu.
(In the spring of the fourth year of Jianxing, Lu Xun ordered the generals to open up the farmland due to the lack of food in the place where he was stationed, and Sun Quan greatly appreciated it, and even set an example by taking the eight oxen that pulled the cart for him to plough the land.) )
Lu Xun was Sun Quan's most trusted person at this time, and Sun Quan had to consider his opinions in all matters between Wu and Shu, and even carved his own jade seal and placed it in Lu Xun's residence.
Every time the Han Dynasty communicates, it has to go through Lu Xun's hands, and the documents given to Shu are also shown to Lu Xun first, and if there is something wrong, let Lu Xun revise it and send it directly.
Although the two are monarchs and ministers, they are actually intimate.
Now as soon as Sun Quan heard Lu Xun's request to see him in Wuchang, he knew that Lu Xun had a different opinion on the matter of destroying Wei, and immediately hurriedly agreed to Lu Xun's request.
From Jiangling to Wuchang, there are land and water routes, and Lu Xun arrived in just two days.
"Your Majesty, the auxiliary general asks to see you."
In the palace of Wuchang, Sun Quan was surprised when he heard that Lu Xun was back, "Bo Yan has finally arrived?" Hurry up, please! ”
"Chen Lu Xun has seen the king."
Although the forty-three-year-old Lu Xun was only one year younger than Sun Quan, he was a generation younger than Sun Quan, and because he was appreciated by Sun Quan, he was able to marry Sun Quan's niece.
"Uncle Yan doesn't need to be polite, come, sit down."
Sun Quan greeted warmly, "Come on, bring the lonely honey water." Bo Yan came all the way, presumably he was tired. ”
Sun Quan said, and personally moved the Bingjian beside him to Lu Xun's side.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Lu Xun was a little flattered.
"Boyan is running around like this for state affairs, and I am Xie Boyan."
Forty-four-year-old Sun Quan has a Chinese face, a slightly red beard under the wide mouth is very distinctive, and his eyes are blazing, showing great self-confidence.
On the other hand, Lu Xun, although he is known as a general, is dressed as a Confucian scholar, with a white face, polite manners, and a slightly feminine speech, which can be seen to be a gentle character.
Only the slightly slanted sword eyebrows made him add a heroic aura and neutralized his femininity.
"This time, all the ministers said that it was the right time to cut Wei, only Bo Yan wanted to say it secretly, but I don't know if he saw it?"
After retreating, Sun Quan asked.
"Cao Pi is newly mourned, the hearts of the people in the north are floating now, and it is the right time to cut Wei, this is really good."
Lu Xun nodded, "But how to cut it down, it is necessary to plan carefully, otherwise if we fall into the plan of Shu State, we will lose both with Cao Wei, but let Shu take advantage." ”
"Bo Yan means this, could it be that Shu has other scheming?"
Sun Quan's eyes flashed and he asked.
"Your Majesty, before Liu Bei died, he would rather guard Yong'an in person than return to Jincheng, and even wrote to his ministers, saying that he wanted to lead the army eastward again, which shows how much he misses Jingzhou?"
"Liu Bei got Zhuge Liang, he once said that he was like a fish in water, and then entrusted all the Shu Kingdom to him, how did Zhuge Liang not know Liu Bei's thoughts? In addition, Shu considers itself to be orthodox in the Han Dynasty, whether it is Cao Wei or my Wu State, they are all regarded as traitors. ”
"It's just that now the Shu Kingdom is weak and has to join forces with the king. But if there is an opportunity, Shu will not give up the opportunity to weaken Cao Wei and Jiangdong to strengthen itself. ”
Lu Xun's tone was not slow or hurried, and he had a power to calm people's hearts, as if everything was under his control.
"In the words of Boyan, Zhuge Liang's letter is to let us fight hard with Cao Wei, fight with the snipe and the clam and make a profit?"
"That's for sure."
When Sun Quan heard this, he frowned slightly, and at the same time was a little reluctant, "What Bo Yan said is indeed reasonable, we should be careful when we attack Wei." It's just that now Cao Pi's new funeral is a rare good time, if you give up easily, I don't know when you will get such a good opportunity. ”
"Your Majesty, the timing is indeed a good time. But the minister dared to ask the king, and the king thought that now with the strength of my Wu country, can I compete with Cao Wei alone? ”
Lu Xun naturally knew what Sun Quan was thinking, but now that the Three Kingdoms are in full swing, one party will move lightly, and one party will benefit, and how to grasp the scale of this has to be carefully considered.
"Naturally not, otherwise why would I have to join forces with the Shu Kingdom in the west to resist Cao Wei?"
Sun Quan replied.
"If we take advantage of Cao Pi's new funeral to raise a large army to commit crimes, can the king be sure to hurt him at all?"
Lu Xun asked again.
"None."
Sun Quan nodded in acknowledgement.
Compared with Cao Wei, who occupies eight points of the world, Wu is still too small, even if it is a surprise to raise troops to attack Wei, at most, it will take some advantage in the early stage.
"Cao Wei had already deployed heavy troops in the south of the Yangtze River to prevent the king. If they suffer a loss, when they are stabilized, I am afraid that they will raise a large army to attack. Therefore, if we attack Wei, we will either not fight it, or we will beat it up, so that it will not dare to attack easily. ”
Lu Xun said with a solemn expression.
When Sun Quan heard this, he hurriedly held Lu Xun's hand, "Bo Yan has already made a plan?" ”
Lu Xun nodded, "The minister has a plan, which can not only temporarily prevaricate the invitation of Shu State, but also get the benefits promised by Shu State, and finally if there is a chance, he can also join forces with Shu State and attack Wei together, so that my Wu State does not have to face Cao Wei's army alone." ”
"Please come quickly!"
Sun Quan was overjoyed.
"Your Majesty, Jiangxia and Xiangyang are all dangerous places in Jingzhou, and since Shu has lured my Wu State to attack Cao Wei, the king might as well pretend to agree. However, it was not a big mobilization, and only a small number of soldiers tried to attack these two places. ”
(Jiangxia County was divided into two parts at that time, with Wu accounting for most of the area and Wei accounting for the northern part.) )
"If that's the case, wouldn't it alarm Cao Wei?"
Sun Quan asked in surprise.
"If this move is successful, it will be an unexpected joy, if it is unsuccessful, it will not matter, it is just a move to prevaricate the Shu Kingdom, and at the same time, it can also paralyze Cao Wei."
"In this way, we can naturally accept the huge profits promised by the Shu Kingdom, and at the same time, it can also make Cao Wei think that our soldiers are not worthy of a battle."
Lu Xun explained, "Now that Jiaozhou is in the midst of war, we promised Shu to attack Wei, and they will no longer interfere in the affairs of Jiaozhou, and then we will take the opportunity to quell the chaos in one fell swoop." ”
"Wonderful!"
Sun Quan took the case and exclaimed, "Three wins with one stone!" ”
"And that's not all!"
Lu Xun's eyes flashed with a sharp light, "Zhuge Liang has just leveled Nanzhong, Shu must be unable to use swords recently, when we take the benefits of Shu and level the rebellion in Jiaozhou, I am afraid that Shu will be able to relieve himself." ”
"At that time, we urge them to send troops from Hanzhong, let them attract Cao Wei's troops, and then we march from the east to echo each other, Cao Wei must take care of one and lose the other, how can it be undefeated?"
"Good, good!"
Sun Quan laughed.
"Your Majesty, there is only one state in Shu, there was the defeat of Yiling in the front, and then the expedition to the south and the middle, which eased up, and we urged them to go on a northern expedition, even if Zhuge Liang has the ability to manage Zhong, this Shu land will also be tossed to make the country tired and the people are tired."
"In this way, even if they peek into the land of Jingzhou again, they can only cry out in vain, and they must obediently cooperate with us, and dare not make other intentions."
When Lu Xun said this, he clenched his fists fiercely, as if he was holding Shu in his hands.
When Sun Quan heard this, he was so excited that he couldn't help himself, got up and walked quickly, and clapped his hands again and again, "Excellent, excellent!" ”
After a long while, he stopped, turned around to Lu Xun, and praised, "Bo Yan, others can plan for a while, but you can seek the fortune of a country, you are really a lonely countryman!" ”
As he spoke, he personally poured a bowl of honey water for Lu Xun, "Lonely countryman, please drink!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Seeing Lu Xun respectfully take the bowl and drink it all, Sun Quan smiled with satisfaction, thought for a while, and then said slowly, "Bo Yan, you said that if I personally led my troops to attack Jiangxia at that time, would it be better to paralyze Cao Wei?" ”
"No king! Nine times out of ten, this battle will be lost, but I am afraid that it will damage the prestige of the king. ”
Lu Xun hurriedly stopped, "Why don't you let the minister personally lead the troops to attack Xiangyang when the time comes......"
Before Lu Xun's words were finished, Sun Quan stretched out his hand to stop him from continuing, "Bo Yan is the governor of my Jiangdong, who defeated Liu Bei in Yiling back then, who doesn't know your ability to lead the army?" ”
"If you personally lead the army and don't fight well, it will make Cao Wei suspicious, and you will not be paralyzed, but will damage your reputation among the soldiers."
"If you play too well, it will make Cao Wei even more vigilant, and it will be even worse, so this move is absolutely impossible, but it is different."
Sun Quan pointed at himself and laughed at himself, "Back then, I led 100,000 horses, but I was broken by Zhang Liao's 800 cavalry. So what's the point of losing again this time? ”
"Your Majesty!"
Lu Xun didn't expect Sun Quan to be willing to damage his reputation for his own scheme, and he was so moved that he leaned down deeply.
"Bo Yan has been in charge of Jingzhou for a long time, and he hasn't been back to Wu County for a long time, right? Since I have arrived in Wuchang today, it is better to rest in the palace tonight, and go back to Wujun tomorrow to visit my family, so as not to let my niece say that I am not close to people and will not let you and his wife meet. ”
Sun Quan picked up Lu Xun and comforted.
Lu Xun understood as soon as he heard it, the king wanted him to avoid the battle of Wei this time!
He is the governor of Jingzhou, if he is in Jiangling, if he does not personally lead the army when he fights Wei, it is unreasonable.
But if he was visiting relatives in Wu County, no one would suspect anything.
"Do you dare to disobey the king?"
Lu Xun's body was trembling slightly.
Sun Quan looked at Lu Xun's moved appearance, and said jokingly, "This time I lost my reputation alone, but there is a price. In the future, Bo Yan will definitely think of ways to help me recover, otherwise I will not be able to follow. ”
"Minister, I swear here, I will make the king famous in China in the future!"
Lu Xun said word by word.
