Obviously, Zhong You's penchant for showing off his calligraphy and literary talents, a letter, sprinkled with thousands of words, the pen is strong, simple and mellow. Zhong Hui's calligraphy has to be passed down from home, his father Zhong Xiang is a generation of calligraphy masters, Zhong Xiang is quite accomplished in calligraphy, is the founder of regular script, later generations called "the originator of regular script", and Jin Dynasty Wang Xizhi and called "Zhong Wang". Zhonghui's calligraphy is blue, in the Wei and Jin dynasties, it can be called everyone, and the world calls its father and son "big and small clocks".

Zhong Hui's calligraphy is good, and the literary style is also flying, Li Liulu four, the literature is gorgeous, quoting scriptures, and sprinkling. Fortunately, Lu Kang was more patient than Jiang Wei, and read Zhong Hui's letter from beginning to end. There is a lot of nonsense, and there is only one central meaning, that is, Wei and Wu should strike their troops and rest and share the land of Yizhou.

Lu Kang smiled indifferently, others are the first to salute and then the soldiers, Zhong Hui is the first to salute before the soldiers, and he did not write before the siege, it is estimated that Zhong Hui has great confidence in his own strength, and thinks that it is easy to take Fucheng, but after the first battle, he felt that the battle was not so easy to fight, so he proposed peace. It's okay to negotiate peace, Zhong Hui proposed that the two sides jointly take Chengdu, obviously the drunkard's intention is not to drink, Chengdu is in the south of Fucheng, and to take Chengdu and divide Yizhou equally, wouldn't Wu Fang have to let Wu Fang give up Fucheng first, how can this trick fool Lu Kang?

"Draw pen and ink." Lu Kang commanded, his own subordinates took the pen and ink, and Lu Kang didn't take another piece of paper, just in the last blank space of Zhong Hui's letter, he brushed and wrote a line of words, folded it back, stuffed it into the original envelope, handed it to the envoy of Wei Guolai, and said: "Please transfer it to Zhong Zhenxi, I have already stated it in the letter." ”

The envoy of Wei came to bow down and take his leave.

The generals were puzzled, and Liuping asked: "This battle has been fought for a day, and Zhong Hui will come to write a book, what does this mean?" ”

Lu Kang smiled and said, "Zhong Hui has a strong army. I thought that I could take Fucheng lightly, and after a day of fierce fighting, I knew that I was not easy to deceive in Dongwu, but I wrote a book to deceive, wanting our army to give up Fucheng, and the two sides took Chengdu together. ”

Liuping took a sip. "Phew! This Wei people are very treacherous, so they can use three indiscriminate tricks, and it is fake to take the opportunity to seize Fucheng. ”

Lu Kang said indifferently: "Zhong Hui thinks that my army can't take Chengdu, I want him to take a look, I can't get it!" ”

While he was talking, the Chinese army came to report that reinforcements from Soochow had come to the waterway.

Lu Kangteng stood up, stroked his palms and laughed: "It's just in time." I'm done! ”

The generals were puzzled, and Lu Kang said with a smile: "My 100,000 troops entered Sichuan, captured one place, and then had to stay in one place, after taking Fucheng, there were only 50,000 or 60,000 people left, and if the troops were divided, there would be only 30,000 or 20,000 people who could attack Chengdu." The Shu State defended Chengdu with limited troops, but only 20,000 or 30,000 people. But he can't take Chengdu no matter what. That's why I asked His Majesty for help, and now 50,000 reinforcements have arrived, and they have come at the right time, blocking the Wei people north of Fucheng, and our army will take Chengdu directly, and the big thing can be decided. ”

The generals suddenly realized. It is all called Lu Kang's clever plan. Lu Kang then ordered 30,000 garrisons among the reinforcements to enter the city to change defenses, and 20,000 field soldiers went directly to the south of the city to set up camp and wait for the army to assemble. Lu Kang defended Fucheng with 30,000 garrisons and the original 10,000 troops, and the remaining 50,000 troops were ready to join up with 20,000 reinforcements in the south of the city, with 70,000 people. Attack Chengdu in the south.

Fucheng is dangerous, with 40,000 defenders to hold the city, blocking the Wei army's 100,000 army for a period of time should not be a problem, as long as Lu Kang takes Chengdu, after solving the Shu State, it is easy to turn back and deal with Zhonghui.

The Wei envoy left Fucheng and returned to the Wei army camp to see Zhonghui.

Zhong Hui said: "Has Lu Kang ever read my letters?" ”

The envoy said: "Back to the governor, Lu Kang read the letter in front of the lowly officer. ”

"Can Lu Kang reply?"

The messenger presented the letter and said: "Lu Kang wrote a reply after the original book, please see it." ”

Zhong Hui sighed slightly, took the letter in his hand, opened it and saw that after he sprinkled thousands of words, Lu Kang only attached eight words: "Whoever kills the deer depends on his ability." ”

Zhong Hui laughed and said: "Lu Kang's pen is more than strong, lacking mellow, I heard that Lu Kang studied under Gu Yong, and Gu Yong is Cai Bojiao's proud protégé, calligraphy attainments are extraordinary, it seems that Lu Kang has only learned some skins." ”

The generals looked at each other, Zhong Hui did not talk about the content of Lu Kang's reply, but only talked about calligraphy, which seemed to be a bit unrelated.

Zhong Hui said solemnly: "People are like their words, words are like their people, a person's character can be completely expressed from handwriting, Lu Kang is more than upright, but he lacks tactfulness." Lu Kang left a message after my letter, it seems that his ambition to compete for the throne is undiminished, but it is a pity that he does not know the truth that it is rigid and easy to break, and softness is eternal, and the governor concluded that Lu Kang will be defeated in the future, and there is no place to bury him. ”

At this time, the scout officer came in and reported: "Qiyu Dudu, a large number of Wu warships have been found at Fushui Ferry, and Eastern Wu reinforcements have arrived in Fucheng. ”

All the generals were shocked, now that Lu resisted and defended Fucheng, this battle was not easy to fight, and if the Wu army reinforcements arrived, it would be even more difficult to fight.

"How many reinforcements are there in the Wu army? Can I enter Fucheng in its entirety? Zhong Hui asked in a deep voice.

"There are about 50,000 reinforcements from the Wu army, but not all of them have entered Fucheng, of which 30,000 have entered the city, and 20,000 are stationed in the south of the city, and another battalion has been set up."

"Stationed in the south of the city? What trick does this Lu Kang want to play? Tian Xu muttered, quite puzzled.

Not only Tian Xu, almost all the Wei generals present were a little inexplicable, the defense line of the Wu army was in Fucheng, it stands to reason that the reinforcements arrived, even if they did not all enter the city, as for the deployment in the east and west of the city, echoing the defenders of Fucheng from afar, now Lu Kang simply put these 20,000 people behind his back, and he really didn't understand Lu Kang's way of deploying troops.

Zhong Hui pondered for a moment, and suddenly a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he lost his voice: "It's not good, Lu Kang's deployment of troops this time will definitely have an attempt to refuse our army to attack Chengdu in the north of the city, and the Wu army's brigade." ”

The generals were shocked, now Fucheng is like a mountain in front of the Wei army, insurmountable, if you want to open up the road to Chengdu, you must first take Fucheng, but now the Wu army has gathered a large number of troops in Fucheng, the strength at this moment is almost the same as the Wei army, and the difficulty of taking Fucheng has increased sharply. couldn't capture Fucheng, and could only watch Lu Kang divide his troops to take Chengdu.

Chengdu is the most critical, those who get Chengdu will benefit from Zhou, and they will not be able to do anything to watch the Wu people capture Chengdu, so that Wei will be depressed to death.

At this time, the supervisor Wei Qian smiled and said: "This is to Chengdu, and it is not only a road to Fucheng, from this to the west, is Wenshan County, take Wenshan, you can go straight to Luocheng, the governor can lead the troops to take the Wenshan Road, go straight to Chengdu, who will kill this deer, it is not yet known." ”

Wenshan Road is an ancient road in the west of Chengdu, along the Minjiang River Valley, from Jiangyou to the west, passing through Wenjiang River, Wenshan, you can go straight to Luocheng, it is only one step away from Chengdu, but because of its long distance and difficult road, so from Jiange to Chengdu, almost no one takes this road, now the Wei army is blocked under the city, want to attack Chengdu in a roundabout way, Wenshan Road is not stingy is the best choice.

Zhong Hui was overjoyed, Liuqiu Jianwang Mai led 30,000 troops to camp north of Fushui, confronted the Wei army in Fucheng, and personally led an army of 80,000 to Wenshan and take Chengdu. (To be continued......)
