Chapter 877: Jiangdong's Sneak Attack (I)
After Xu Chu finished drinking, he wanted to lead his troops out of the village. Cao Cao hurriedly stopped Xu Chu and reassured him not to act rashly, and fell for Zhuge Liang's treacherous scheme. Cao Cao then ordered the troops not to go out of the village easily, but to defend the camp.
Cao Cao is like this, just waiting for Sun Ce to send troops to Jingzhou, and immediately attack Xiangyang with all his strength.
However, he said that Sun Ce had already arranged the deployment in the Jiangdong area, and ordered Cheng Pu and Huang Gai to be in Changsha and Guiyang counties, and they were about to move troops and horses to teach the people to disguise soldiers and bluff. After some discussion with his advisers, Sun Ce decided to use 150,000 soldiers and horses, and Sun Ce divided the 150,000 army into two parts. The first part was led by Zhou Yu, the governor of the capital, and led Zhou Tai, Han Dang, Jiang Yin and other generals to lead 70,000 troops and garrison troops in Hefei. As for Sun Ce, he led Lu Meng, Ling Tong, Xu Sheng, Ding Feng and other generals, as well as conspirators Lu Su, Lu Xun and others, led 80,000 troops and gathered in Danyang. The two armies, led by Zhou Yu, took Yuzhou all the way, and Sun Ceqin led the other to take Xuzhou.
At this time, in Danyang County, the Jiangdong army was about to set off, and Sun Ce led the generals to look at the Xuzhou realm in front of the river. Lu Meng's eyes shimmered, looking at the rolling Yangtze River, but in his heart he was thinking about the scene of a certain day.
On the day of Sun Ce's departure, Sun Quan summoned Lu Meng and Gan Ning to give instructions in the secret room.
Sun Quan smiled lovely, and smiled at Lu Meng and Gan Ning.
"My brother fell for Zhuge Kongming's radical generals, and he raised troops to plot against the land of Xu and Henan, which was really rash. Cao Cao is the hero of the world, the power of the world, half of the Han Dynasty is under his influence, with more than 700,000 soldiers, how can such a person be a general?
Once my brother was proud, he underestimated the heroes of the world, and he would inevitably reap the consequences. Even if you wait for the opportunity to act, my brother is too arrogant, and if Soochow is under his control, sooner or later my father's life will be ruined. ”
Sun Quan's words suddenly made Lu Meng shiver, and Lu Meng secretly looked at Sun Quan. But seeing Sun Quan's casual face, he didn't seem to be ashamed of his rebellious words at all. Gan Ning next to him grinned and surrendered.
Lu Meng was thinking about it, but was suddenly interrupted by a laugh.
"Hahahaha!! Cao thief is really unprepared, as long as my Jiangdong army crosses the river in the future, Xuzhou can raise his hand!! I also hope that the public will help me and break through Xuzhou in one fell swoop, so as to increase the prestige of my Dongwu! ”
"Whoa!! We are willing to fight for Wu Hou and serve the death!! ”
As soon as Sun Ce's voice fell, the Jiangdong generals responded sharply. If the sound wave can shake the heavens and the earth, it will even overwhelm the sound of the Yangtze River wave. After Sun Ce finished exploring the riverside, he ordered all the troops to prepare one by one.
Lu Xun offered advice to Sun Ce again, teaching this and so. Lu Xun was deeply valued by Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu repeatedly told Sun Ce before leaving that Lu Xun could be reused in the battle of Xuzhou. Lu Xun's intelligence is not inferior to him in any way. At that time, Sun Ce saw that Lu Xun was young and did not take it to heart. But at the moment, Lu Xun offered a clever plan.
Sun Ce was overjoyed when he heard the plan, so he rewarded Lu Xun and acted according to the plan. More than 80 fast boats were prepared, and those who chose to meet the water pretended to be merchants, all dressed in white, and rocked the oars on the boats, but the elite soldiers were ambushed in the boats and deer boats. Lv Meng, Ding Feng and other generals are in charge of command. The rest of the generals will follow Sun Ce's follow. At the same time, Sun Ce sent an envoy to Zhou Yu, so that on the day he saw the book, he could send troops to attack Yuzhou.
The deployment was decided, Lu Meng received the military order, and after discussing with Lu Xun that night, he immediately sent a man in white and drove a fast boat across the river. The man in white traveled day and night until he reached the north shore.
Seeing this, the defenders on the beacon tower by the river immediately rushed to the shore to intercept and interrogate. Lu Xun was dressed in white, not messy at all, and said with a bright smile.
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't misunderstand. We are all good people, and we are all doing business in Jiangdong and Xuzhou on weekdays. Today, there was a sudden strong wind, and the wind was blocked in the river, so we were afraid that the business goods would be damp, so we took refuge here. ”
After Lu Xun finished speaking, he glanced at the two white-clothed people beside him, and the two people understood it and moved out boxes of belongings with them. Looking at the boxes of golden silks, those Xuzhou defenders were all stunned for a while. Lu Xun smiled even more and said softly.
"I've worked hard for all the military masters. This is a hint of the villain's heart, not a respect, and I hope to be able to laugh at it. ”
The sergeant of Xuzhou defending Taiwan was overjoyed when he heard this, and he was confused for a while, and he did not look for it, so he let Lu Xun's ship anchor at the riverside. Lu Xun saw that the sergeant guarding Taiwan in Xuzhou had received the gold silk, so he asked people to bring wine and food to serve. The sergeant of Xuzhou defending Taiwan was overjoyed, and drank with Lu Xun and other white-clothed people disguised as merchants, and most of them were drunk until late at night.
About the second watch, Lu Xun was on the beacon tower, and when he saw that the time had come, he left the table under the pretext of excuse.
The night wind is cold and blowing. There was a dead silence on the riverbank, and only the sound of the tide hitting the bank could be heard.
When he was young, he suddenly anchored the ships on the riverside, and the Jiangdong elite soldiers buried in the boats and deer came out together, and rushed to the beacon tower. Most of the officers and soldiers on the beacon tower were drunk, and before they could come to their senses, they were tied down one after another.
A secret signal suddenly sounded, more than 80 boats on the riverside, suddenly crowded, countless Jiangdong elite soldiers rose up, and the army of the pier platform where they were about to go was captured into the boat, and never left a single one.
Suddenly, all the generals and soldiers of Xuzhou on the shore were captured by Jiangdong people. Lu Meng's face was cold, and he ordered all the soldiers to gather all the captured Xuzhou officers and soldiers in one place. Lü Meng ordered the sergeants to form two teams, one with swords and guns, and the other with dozens of boxes of gold, silver and jewelry.
Those Xuzhou officers didn't know what Lu Meng wanted, and Lu Meng first pointed to the team of soldiers and horses with swords and guns on the left and said.
"You wait for the military, if you are Chen Yua
The dragon learned that you would surely die. If you die sooner or later, it is better for this general to execute you one by one, so that a whole corpse can still be left. ”
Lu Meng's voice fell. Those Xuzhou officers were so frightened that most of them were crying and begging for mercy. Seeing that most of these people were afraid of death, Lu Meng was overjoyed, so he held the dozens of boxes of gold, silver and jewelry on the left and said.
"But if you are willing to open the Huaiyin City Gate for my Jiangdong Army, you will not only be saved from death, but also be rich. Life or death, how to choose, but it depends on your wishes. General Ben will not persecute! ”
When those Xuzhou officers heard this, they almost didn't think twice, and almost most of them were willing to surrender, and only a small number of them scolded those who turned against them. Lu Meng smiled coldly, and the commander of the team of soldiers and horses on the left cast a look, the commander comprehended, and under an order, the Jiangdong soldiers and horses held knives and guns, like a hungry tiger pounced, and in an instant, all those loyal people were cut out of the meat sauce. The rest of the people were so chilled that they immediately knocked on the ground and begged for mercy.
Lu Meng suddenly changed his expression, smiled brightly, said good words to appease, and gave gold and silk one after another, and each rewarded him heavily. Those Xuzhou officers who surrendered got the golden silk, and their hearts were overjoyed, and they all said that they were willing to die for service.
"The soldiers are fast. At present, we should take advantage of the fact that our army has not yet been discovered, drive straight in, and take Huaiyin first. Huaiyin is the county of Guangling County, as long as Huaiyin is taken, Guangling County is in the pocket of our army! ”
Lu Xun stepped over, Lu Meng bowed slightly, and then ordered to integrate the army, drive a long way, and take Huaiyin. Because there was no signal on the beacon tower, and the night was covered. The Jiangdong army went straight to the Huaiyin realm, but no one was aware of it. Compared with the fifth watch, the sky is slightly brighter. Lü Meng ambushed his soldiers and horses outside the city, and ordered those Xuzhou officers who surrendered to call the door under the city. Those Xuzhou officers, who received the order, went to the city and shouted to open the door. The doorman recognized it as a soldier of Xuzhou, and immediately opened the city gate. Unexpectedly, the Xuzhou officers outside the city shouted, and set off a trumpet fire in the city gate.
Together, the overall situation has been decided. Lu Meng's tiger stared, shouted, and took the brunt of the attack, leading the Jiangdong army to rush straight into Huaiyin City. The defenders of the city were caught off guard, and by the time they were integrated, the army of Jiangdong had already entered the city. Huaiyin guards, seeing that the general trend has gone, led the crowd to surrender.
So, under Lu Xun's strategy, the Jiangdong army crossed the Yangtze River overnight and attacked and captured Huaiyin. Lü Meng was strict in governing the army, and in order to appease the Huaiyin army, he sent an order to the army on the same day. The military order is so.
"If anyone kills a person in vain and takes a thing from the people, without exception, he will be dealt with in accordance with military law!"
Lu Meng's military order fell, and the people of Huaiyin suddenly calmed down when they heard it. Lü Meng also let Huaiyin be an official and remained in office. The Huaiyin officials were overjoyed, and there was no way to resist. Lü Meng took Huaiyin, and after pacifying him, he sent someone to report to Sun Ce.
One day it was cloudy and rainy, and Lu Meng was leading a number of horses to inspect the four gates. Suddenly, I saw a person taking a folk hat to cover his armor to avoid the rain, Lu Meng saw it, shouted loudly, and ordered the left and right to ask him, the man suddenly remembered Lu Meng's military order, and hurriedly told him that it was Lu Meng's villager, and begged Lu Meng to see that it was for the sake of his fellow villagers, and it was unintentional, and he was spared for a crime.
And when they saw that the man had taken something that was not valuable, they all came to persuade him. Lu Meng coldly covered his face, with a selfless attitude, and shouted loudly.
"Hugh has to say again!! Although this person is my fellow countryman, my order has been issued, and this person knowingly committed the crime, and should be dealt with according to military law. Not to mention that before military law, everyone was equal. The so-called Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people. Today, even if I have violated military law, I should be beheaded!! ”
The people of Lu Meng's fellow villagers were like falling into an abyss of ice when they heard this, their bodies were cold, and they knelt down and cried and begged for mercy.
"The general spares his life. The villain is afraid of the rain and wet official armor, so he takes it to cover it, not for private use. The beggar general misses the feelings of his fellow villagers! ”
Lu Meng squinted at the tiger and shouted coldly.
"I know that you are the official armor, but the military order is like a mountain, why don't you see that all the officers are wet, and you are the only one who breaks the law!!"
After Lu Meng finished drinking, he pushed down and beheaded him left and right. Later, after the head of the owl was preached, he collected his body and buried it with tears. Since the three armies were shocked, no one admired Lu Meng, Lu Meng won the hearts of the army, his reputation rose greatly, and he can be said to be the youngest generation in Jiangdong, the most authoritative person.
Within a day, Sun Ce led the army to Huaiyin, and Lü Meng went out of Guo to welcome him. Sun Ce comforted the labor, applauded the people, and held a banquet to celebrate, which was naturally not a problem.
The next day, Sun Ce gathered a group of civil and military personnel to discuss in the lobby of the Yanei. Sun Ce won Huaiyin, and he already had a base in Xuzhou, which could be attacked and defended. Sun Ce was very proud, and relied more on Lu Meng and Lu Xun.
Sun Ce smiled brightly and asked with all the civil and military officers in the hall.
"Now Huaiyin has been obtained, and Guangling can be obtained with a hand. But Chen Yua
At this time, most of the dragons knew that our Jiangdong troops were sent to Xuzhou, and they would be deployed in Xuzhou in Xiapi to block our army. To win Xuzhou, it is necessary to defeat Chen Yua first
Dragon Fang. I wonder if you have a strategy to break the enemy? ”
As soon as Sun Ce's voice fell, suddenly a person attended the admonition.
