"Oh." Sun Xiu sighed lightly, turned his head, and moved his gaze from the north shore to the south bank, the Feiyunlou ship was approaching Wuchang Wharf. On the entire river, the warships are like clouds, and there are many warships, some of these ships are escorted for the emperor's flagship, and some of them are specially rushed by the Jingzhou Navy to meet them, and on the Wuchang wharf, there are many soldiers and soldiers, and they are heavily guarded.

Sun Xiu was greeted by a large number of Jingzhou dignitaries such as Jingzhou Assassin Shi Shiji, Zhenjun General Lu Kang, Fujun General Buxie, Zhengxi General Liuping, Jianping Taishou Sheng Man, etc., among which Lu Kang, the general of the Zhenjun Army, was specially rushed from Xiling to Wuchang to take over.

Lu Kang is the second son of the governor, the general, the prime minister Lu Xun, Lu Xun's eldest son Lu Yan died early, when Lu Kang was twenty years old, he inherited the title of his father Jiangling Marquis, served as the captain of Jianwu, and later moved to Lijie Zhonglang General, General Fenwei, in the second year of Taiping, Wei general Zhuge betrayed Wei and surrendered to Wu, Lu Kang went north to Shouchun to receive reinforcements, in this battle, Lu Kang showed his prominence, beheaded the general of Wei Guobian, and was awarded the general of Zhengbei for his merits, and then worshiped the general of the town army Xiling Governor, and the fake festival.

Xiling is an important town in the west of Jingzhou, and the Shu State set up a concept of the governor in Yong'an, Xiling is the western barrier of the Wu State, and the governor of Xiling has always been the important general of Eastern Wu. Although Wu Shu is an alliance, after all, the two sides have had a war because of Jingzhou, and the two sides have never been wary of each other. When the envoy of Shu sent Zong to envoy Wu, Sun Quan asked him why Shu wanted to increase the strength of the defense of the White Emperor City, and Zong replied that the Han State increased the defense of the White Emperor and the Wu State increased the defense of Baqiu in order to adapt to the situation, and it was not worth asking. Sun Quan only laughed at it in the end.

Lu Kang is now eight years old Chinese New Year's Eve, and he is in the prime of life. Since the governor of Xiling. Purge the army. The military appearance of the entire Xiling has taken on a new look. This time, Sun Xiu came to Wuchang, and Lu Kang and others were ordered to come to meet the holy driver.

Compared with the energetic Lu Kang, the thirty-year-old Emperor of Wu Sun Xiu seemed much older, accompanied by Zhang Bu, Sun Xiu staggered off the ship and accepted the visit of the ministers of Jingzhou on the dock.

What does it mean to have more than enough heart but not enough strength, Sun Xiu has a sincere understanding at this moment. Although he has great ambitions, but the disease is ruthlessly destroying his body, since the illness last autumn, Sun Xiu's health has been bad, although there is a Tai Yi treatment, but the condition has been good and bad, this time taking advantage of the opportunity to alleviate the disease, Sun Xiu came to accompany the capital Wuchang, but the bumps along the way, made his face extremely pale. It looks sick.

Jingzhou Thorn Shi Shi thought that the saint was caused by seasickness, and said: "Your Majesty's car and boat are tired. Please also go to the palace to rest. ”

When Sun Quan was called the emperor, he built a palace in Wuchang, and later moved the capital to Jianye, and the palace in Wuchang was used as a palace to facilitate the emperor to inspect. However, Sun Xiu has been on the throne for six years and is the first time he has come to Wuchang.

Although there has been no emperor in the palace for a long time, there are a lot of palace maids and eunuchs, and the entire palace is cleaned.

Sun Xiu took a short rest, and after dinner, he immediately summoned the ministers of Jingzhou, although he was unwell, Sun Xiu obviously did not forget what he was here for.

Shi Ji, Lu Kang, Bu Xie, and Liuping, the ministers of civil and military affairs in Jingzhou, who had just taken over at the dock during the day, rushed to the palace overnight and died.

No one has half a word of complaint, they all see His Majesty's physical condition, the emperor can discuss matters when he is sick, so dedicated, what is it for them to work a night shift.

Sun Xiu's face didn't look any better, he coughed lightly twice, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I came to Wuchang this time to see how Jingzhou's combat readiness was, and how sure was it that I would capture Xiangyang?" ”

Now Eastern Wu can only occupy most of Jingzhou, Xiangyang County and Nanyang County among the nine counties of the Han Dynasty are still in the hands of Cao Wei, some time ago Sun Xiu has ordered the Jingzhou army to advance north, attack Xiangyang, and prepare to take the entire Jingzhou in one go.

Hearing Sun Xiu's inquiry, Shi Ji Lu Kang and the others were ashamed, and Shi Ji said: "Your Majesty, Jingzhou has all the soldiers and armor, and the grain and grass are abundant, but the cities of Xiangyang in Wei are heavily guarded and invulnerable, and it may be difficult to conquer for a while. ”

Sun Xiu frowned slightly and said: "Wei Shu has been fighting in Hanzhong, it has been holding each other for several months, Wei can not advance an inch, Sima Zhao has mobilized more than 200,000 troops into Shu, the Central Plains is empty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for my Jiangdong, if you can't take advantage of the situation and take Xiangyang at this time, wait until Wei Shu strikes the war, the good opportunity is lost, the Central Plains in the north is in vain, Zhuqing has been in Jingzhou for a long time, is there really no good strategy?" ”

After the war of Wei and Shu, Sun Xiu has been paying attention to the development of the war situation, the war between Wei and Shu in the Longxi region has hardly stopped for many years, but this time the battle is obviously different from usual, whether it is Zhuge Liang or Jiang Wei's Northern Expedition, they are occupying a preemptive advantageous position, but this time it was Wei who took the lead in attacking, and gathered heavy troops, and successively invested 230,000 troops in Shu, and the strength of its troops is definitely beyond the past.

Sun Xiu believes that Sima Zhao is going to move seriously this time, and dispatching so many troops is definitely not a small fight, but Sima Zhao is determined to destroy Shu. Sun Xiu also has a general understanding of the situation of Shu, not only does Wu send envoys in Chengdu to control open intelligence channels, but also secretly Wu's detailed work is also active in Shu, and will dig deeper intelligence that cannot be obtained through diplomatic channels. Shu is now in chaos, the lord of Shu Liu Chan favors Huang Hao, and the general Jiang Wei is ostracized, Sima Zhao will take a fancy to this opportunity to attack Shu in a big way.

However, Sima Zhao seems to be a little optimistic, he somewhat underestimates the military strength of Shu, and Deng Ai, a famous general of Wei, was ambushed by the Shu army when he attacked a small road and the whole army was annihilated.

"Your Majesty, Xiangyang Guard's general Yanghu Wen Taowu has outstanding points, the ministers led the army to attack the city of Xiangyang, and repeatedly failed to conquer, so they can only temporarily retreat, although the Wei State has a large army to conquer Shu in the west, but Xiangyang has obviously made careful preparations, and it is not easy to take it." Lu Kang was the commander and general of the northern attack on Xiangyang, and truthfully stated to Sun Xiu.

Sun Xiu was a little gloomy, sure enough, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, he was expecting to finally have the opportunity to expand the territory this time, but he never thought that it would end like this, obviously his visit to Wuchang this time was meaningless.

At this moment, the Huangmen squire reported: "Your Majesty, the envoys sent by Shu have arrived in Wuchang, and now the pavilion is resting. (To be continued......)
