Chapter 552: No Place to Be Ashamed
Zhu Ji walked into the big tent, turned a blind eye to Zhuge Ke's angry eyes, and bowed down to Pan Jun: "Zhu Ji, the commander of the southern part of Lingling, has seen the general. He turned around and gestured to Zhuge Ke's jaw, and then calmly sat down, pulled out the war knife at his waist, and gently placed it on the desk.
Zhuge Ke suppressed his anger and sneered: "If I remember correctly, Shi'an, the garrison of the southern governor of Lingling, is in the south of Yanguan, and now that Yanguan is lost, Shi'an has become the garrison of Wei Ba, I don't know what strategy Zhu Jun has, to recapture Yanguan?" ”
Zhu Ji glanced at him, thought for a moment, nodded without smiling, and put on a very understanding look. "I know, Brother Yuan Xun is a subordinate by the prince's side, but I don't know that the king has ordered me to obey General Lu's orders before, and I am stationed in the Yiyang area, not in the station."
Zhuge Ke was in the middle of it, and immediately responded: "In this way, the loss of Yanguan is also inseparable from General Lu?" ”
Zhu Ji grinned: "The strict pass is guarded by Lu Kai. With the sturdiness of the strict pass, he actually failed to hold on for half a month, which was really unexpected by everyone. As the supreme general of the Jingzhou Military Region, General Lu naturally has an inseparable relationship. Just like Brother Yuan Xun lost Linhe, it is clear that he has nothing to do with General Pan, but General Pan also can't stay out of it. ”
Zhuge Ke snorted: "It is indeed my responsibility to lose Linhe, but it has nothing to do with General Pan." But if you hadn't come to your aid, how would I have lost my chances? Zhu Jun, your responsibility is not something that can be explained in one or two sentences. ”
Zhu Ji shook his head again and again: "Brother Yuan Xun, you are too excited. First time in battle. I can understand your feelings about such a fiasco. However, the more frustrated the generals are, the more courageous they are, and the slightest setback makes them impetuous, but it is taboo for soldiers. ”
Zhuge Ke was furious, he could no longer restrain his emotions, and suddenly stood up, pointing at Zhu Ji with his halberd: "Zhu Ji, do you still have the face to quibble?" Linhe was lost, and Jiaozhou fell into the hands of Wei Ba. What kind of influence does it have on my Dawu. Don't you know? Don't you feel ashamed of delaying the military plane, not knowing how to blame yourself, and still crying here? ”
Zhu Ji's face sank. The eyelids picked. Reach for the knife on the desk. Zhuge Ke was taken aback. Subconsciously took a step back and reached out to draw the sword. Zhu Ji didn't even look at him, and stood up. He arched his hand to Pan Jun, who had not spoken: "General, I am busy with military affairs, so I don't have time to argue about these inexplicable issues. For the time being, if the general has any military orders, I will obey them. After speaking, he turned around and walked away, from beginning to end, without looking at Zhuge Ke.
"You zhanzhu!" Zhuge Ke chased after him and shouted loudly. Zhu Ji suddenly stopped, turned around, glared at Zhuge Ke angrily, and said coldly: "Zhuge Ke, I don't care about you for the sake of being compromised and emotionally unstable when you first entered the battlefield." But if you deceive others too much, and you force each other again and again, I know you, but my sword can't recognize you. ”
Zhuge Ke was stunned, and before he came back to his senses, Zhu Ji walked away.
Zhuge Ke's face was red and white for a while, his chest rose and fell, and his breath was like a cow. He has never been so humiliated since he was a child. Zhu Ji repeatedly mentioned his defeats, as if tearing open his scars and hitting his face crackled, making his face hot. He turned around and looked at Pan Jun, but found that Pan Jun had a gloomy face and looked very displeased. He suddenly woke up and said that he and Zhu Ji quarreled in front of Pan Jun, and even Pan Jun was implicated, which was a great harm to Pan Jun's face.
"General, he ......"
Pan Jun narrowed his eyes, and his sword-like gaze shot at Zhuge Ke: "Yuan Xun, do you know the intention of the king to send you to congratulate you?" ”
Zhuge Ke pondered for a long time, nodded silently, a little frustrated. He knew that Sun Quan sent him to Linhe to cooperate with Pan Jun to defeat Wei Ba, enter Jiaozhou from Linhe, and stop Wei Ba's progress in Jiaozhou. In addition, there is another meaning, which is to curb the unrestricted expansion of the military power of the Jiangdong system and strive to grasp the military power in the hands of non-Jiangdong departments. Pan Jun is from the Jingzhou department, he is from the Jianghuai department, and they should join forces to deal with the Jiangdong department.
But now, he's all messed up.
If he sued Sun Quan, Sun Quan might understand him, but Sun Quan couldn't sanction Zhu Ji or Lu Xun. He and Zhu Ji are on the same level, Zhu Ji can support him or not, and Sun Quan has no reason to punish him for his actions. If in terms of identity background, Zhu Ji is behind Lu Xun and his father Zhu Ran, which should not be underestimated. In order to weigh the pros and cons, Sun Quan will not punish Zhu Ran.
If you ignore the overall situation and must provoke Jiangdong people, I am afraid that Pan Jun will not agree. This matter is destined to be carried by him alone.
"General......
"Don't talk about it." Pan Jun interrupted Zhuge Ke's words, "I will truthfully report the situation here to the king, and ask the auxiliary general to come here to preside over the battle......"
Zhuge Ke couldn't help but interject: "If you want to invite the general of the auxiliary country, why should the king send the general?" ”
Pan Jun couldn't help it, he glared at Zhuge Ke: "Zhuge Yuanxun, are you very slow except for the lip kiss a little faster?" Can't you see that Lu Xun is not here, not only is Zhu Ji unwilling to obey orders, but Zhou Yi will not cooperate with us? Zhu Ji still showed his face more or less, but Zhou Yi didn't even look at the shadow, do you think this is normal? ”
was scolded by Pan Jun, and Zhuge Ke suddenly froze. Pan Jun's temper has always been upright, he knows this, but he didn't expect Pan Jun to give him so faceless. He was momentarily intimidated by Pan Jun's might, and he didn't dare to refute again, standing there embarrassed. Pan Jun ignored him, flicked his sleeves, reflexively entered the back tent, and threw Zhuge Ke there alone.
Zhuge Ke was ashamed and embarrassed, and he was ashamed of himself.
Pan Jun was also trembling with anger. He always felt that Zhuge Ke was frivolous, but he didn't expect Zhuge Ke to be so stupid, he didn't know how to cover it up at all, and put everything on his face. For the sake of his little face, he did not hesitate to quarrel with Zhu Ji in person, and in front of him. He began to wonder if Sun Quan's arrangement was reasonable, and it might not be a good thing to keep Zhuge Ke here.
Pan Jun immediately wrote a report to Sun Quan, informing him of the current situation, suggesting that Lu Xun be transferred to command the battle, and implicitly suggesting that Zhuge Ke be transferred away from the front. This battle is very important, and Zhuge Ke cannot be allowed to destroy the overall situation.
Before receiving further instructions, Pan Jun halted all attacks, and he stationed his large camp at Yingpu, blocking Wei Ba's way into the hinterland of Jingzhou, but refused to launch an attack on Linhe County.
Wei Ba also did not attack easily, he built the first line of defense in Guishan, garrisoned by Xiangfu with 2,000 men, and returned to Linhe Castle himself. Dai Liang died in battle, and the Wu army no longer had enough generals in Jiaozhou, and Shi Kuang's energy was maximized. He sent a large number of messengers to the counties to persuade them to surrender. Cangwu is his own county, and almost on the day that the news of Dai Liang's death reached Guangxin, those Cangwu clans who were watching sent representatives to surrender to Wei Ba and were willing to return to the Han Dynasty. Immediately afterwards, Hepu and Gaoliang counties also accepted Shi Kuang's persuasion, only Nanhai County did not surrender, the reason was unexpected, but it was because of a minister who was demoted to Jiaozhou: Yu Xuan.
Yu is over 70 years old and has been in the south for more than ten years, but his physical condition has recently deteriorated and he has become bedridden. He originally lived in Cangwu Mengling, and after Shi Kuang returned to Guangxin on the order of Wei Ba, the first thing he did was to visit Yu Xuan. Unexpectedly, Yu Tuo and him pretended to be a snake, and as soon as Shi Kuang left, Yu Tuo asked his son to carry him, got on the boat, and went straight to the South China Sea. Yu Tuo's purpose was originally to remind Dai Liang not to leave Nanhai County easily, but Dai Liang's actions far exceeded his expectations, and when he arrived in Panyu, he knew that Dai Liang had already set off.
Yu Chuan immediately realized that Dai Liang was very dangerous, and once Dai Liang's army was annihilated, Wei Ba was likely to take Panyu directly, so he used his prestige to mobilize the generals who left Panyu, recruited the clans of Nanhai County to Panyu, and locked them all in Panyu City.
After all this, Yu was exhausted, and finally died of illness in Panyu City. However, these busyness before his death caused a lot of trouble for Wei Ba to fully take over Jihua in Jiaozhou. Shi Kuang sent people to Nanhai County to persuade him to surrender, but he couldn't find anyone at all, not only Panyu City was heavily guarded, and he couldn't enter at all, but those powerful and influential clans were also locked up in Panyu City, and no one dared to respond to Shi Kuang's persuasion.
Shi Kuang was very depressed and repaid Wei Ba. Although Wei Ba felt a little regretful, he didn't say anything. No one can guarantee that things will go their way, and it's normal to be a little surprised. He replied to Shi Kuang and reassured him that only one county in the South China Sea would not be able to hold on for long. It is already a great achievement to get the four counties of Cangwu, Yulin, Hepu and Gaoliang. Next, the three counties of Jiaoluan, Jiuzhen, and Rinan will presumably also fall to the wind, and the initial strategic purpose has been achieved, and there is no need to worry about the gains and losses of the first county in the South China Sea.
Shi Kuang was very satisfied with Wei Ba's attitude. On the one hand, he sent people to Jiaoluan, Jiuzhen, and Ninan to persuade him to surrender, and on the other hand, he summoned the Cangwu clan and put forward a proposal for joint business. Wei Ba has already sent people to Chengdu to transfer goods, this trade route is far faster than the southwest trade route, so it is conceivable that this will become a trade route that Shu Han attaches great importance to, and the profits are of course very considerable. In the case that Nanhai County failed to succeed, in fact, this trade route will not pass through Cangwu, and it is more convenient to enter Jiaolu and Hepu, but Wei Ba promised Shi Kuang to make him rich, such a good thing, how can Shi Kuang be willing to lag behind? There are benefits, of course, and everyone should share them together.
The big clans of Cangwu are excited, if they can be the agents of Shu Han in Jiaozhou, then the profits are so big? They immediately took action, and without waiting for the arrival of the merchant ships in Chengdu, they first sent people to Jiuzhen and Rinan to buy rice. They all knew that Shu Han was going to fight, and grain was the largest commodity, as long as it could be transported to Chengdu, there was no need to worry about profits.
Not long after the fleet of the Cangwu clan set off, Wei Ba received a handwritten letter from his father Wei Yan, and almost at the same time, Huzhong of the hussar general Li Yan's army also came to Linhe. (To be continued......)
