Chapter 508: Shame and Shame (Plus Change, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
According to the agreement between Wei Ba and Lu Xun, until Sun Quan formally agreed to his conditions, Pan Jun and his men could not leave the canyon, and they had to hand over all their weapons and temporarily live in the place designated by Wei Ba. On this condition, Wei Ba allowed Lu Xun to send them rations once a day to ensure that they could survive.
This is actually no different from surrender, not only Pan Jun feels that it is a great shame, but even Zhu Ji, Zhou Yin and others think it is unacceptable. At this time, Pan Jun wanted to persuade them to focus on the overall situation, and to be patient for the time being in order to keep the five thousand elites. Chenyang has been lost, and even if they kill it, there will be no food to supply, and if they flee all the way to a place where they can eat, it would be good to survive one-tenth of them.
Zhu Ji and the others agreed, but Zhou Yin was still indignant and said some ugly things, Pan Jun was very unhappy when he heard it, but he couldn't have a seizure, so he had to hold it in his stomach. Similarly, he didn't have much gratitude to Lu Xun, he questioned Lu Lan and said that General Lu didn't swear that he could transport grain within five days, it turned out to be in this way. Knowing this, I really shouldn't have attacked and lost so many men and horses in vain.
Lu Lan was so angry that he smoked, but he scrupulously adhered to the humility of his superiors and subordinates, and did not collide with Pan Jun, but he relayed these words to Lu Xun. Lu Xun sighed for a long time, but felt a little grateful to Wei Ba. Wei Ba did not force him to make a decision immediately, but agreed that Sun Quan himself would make Zuihou's decision, which could be regarded as leaving him a little leeway.
While urgently allocating military rations from Changsha and Lingling, Lu Xun sent a fast horse to ask Sun Quan for instructions.
On the afternoon of the third day, a sweaty horse galloped into Wuchang City. The messenger with three red flags held high the military newspaper in his hand, and ran all the way to the front of Wuchang Palace, seeing the three red flags symbolizing urgency on his body, the officials guarding the palace gate suddenly changed their faces, hurriedly got out of the way, and watched the messenger rush into the palace.
Sun Quan stood on the palace city, looking at the messenger rushing, his heart "fluttering" non-stop. He had a sense of foreboding that something big was about to happen.
In fact, since Lu Xun's departure, Sun Quan's heart has been hanging. After Lu Xun arrived in Linyuan, he sent back a military report. Said that Wei Jing was sluggish. If he didn't answer Bu Qi in time, he knew that Bu Qi might be in danger. At the same time, he sensed a potential crisis from the injury that Lu Xun only mentioned. Although Lu Xun has been fighting for many years, he is a scholar after all. Except when leading the troops. Most of the time he was in a car. Either he is studying at home and teaching his children, and he is not proficient in riding. In terms of personal physical fitness, Lu Xun is not even as strong as him. For seven or eight days in a row, he rode a horse and galloped. It was an extremely difficult task for Lu Xun, and the injury was expected.
When a person is injured, it is inevitable that there will be some inconvenience in moving and the mood will inevitably be depressed. The army is on an expedition, the opportunity has been lost, Lu Xun is a life-saving straw, if he is injured again, the situation will be even more severe, and the result may exceed anyone's expectations.
Subsequently, Sun Quan received the news that Sun Jun had been captured and Wei Ba had captured Lipu, and he was very worried. Then, he received the news of the annihilation of Wei Jing's army, and he was very shocked. In the case that Lu Xun had already arrived in Yuanling, Wei Ba actually bypassed Yuanling and ambushed Wei Jing at Qingshui Beach, which shows that Wei Ba has fully grasped the initiative in the war, and even Lu Xun cannot stop it. This made Sun Quan even more hopeless about the outcome of the battle.
Even though he was prepared for the worst, Sun Quan's heart still beat uncontrollably when he saw the messenger coming. His eyelids couldn't stop jumping, and the corners of his eyes twitched uncontrollably, making his majestic-looking face a little funny.
"My lord, the auxiliary general is urgent."
"Bring it in." Sun Quan forcibly suppressed his heart palpitations, took the military newspaper from Gu Li's hand, and only glanced at the three blood-like cinnabar on the military newspaper, and his hands trembled involuntarily. Like an earthworm, the green tendon meandered through his head.
Sun Quan checked the seal, opened the military newspaper, and after only one glance, his face turned pale.
Gu Li smelled the smell of the coming storm, and immediately put people on alert, and at the same time, almost semi-forcedly, pulled Sun Quan into the palace.
As soon as he entered the palace, Sun Quan burst out, he drew his knife and slashed like a madman, as if the enemy was in the air in front of him. He cursed angrily as he slashed, and at first he could hear clearly, but soon turned into a wild roar, a painful and manic roar like a beast.
Gu Li stood in the corner, looking at the crazy Sun Quan with pity, at this moment, he is no longer a king of Wu who is high up and sits in the southeast, he is a poor child who has been wronged and bullied, but has no place to confide. He could only hide in this palace, venting his anger on the empty hall, and he didn't even dare to let people see it. Because he knew very well that once his subordinates saw him in this way, his majesty would be gone.
He didn't even have the right to be wild.
Sun Quan roared and roared, clashing back and forth in the main hall, the long knife in his hand Huo Huo was angry. He was panting and hoarse, and his face was as red as blood at one moment, and as white as snow at the next. His chest rose and fell violently, even a thick winter coat could not hide it, his eyes were red and bloodshot, and his eyes were fierce, as if he wanted to choose someone to eat.
I don't know when, the long knife slipped from Sun Quan's hand and landed in the corner. Calm was restored in the hall, and Sun Quan sat on the ground, covering his face with his hands, and wept bitterly. The military newspaper was scattered around him, ravaged to the point of disfigure, crumpled, and with a few footprints on it. After a long time, Sun Quan slowly stopped crying, and picked up the military report again with trembling hands, his eyes glazed and his voice hoarse. He muttered, "What a shame...... What a shame...... Zhuge Liang, you deceive people too much, deceive people too much! ”
Gu Li walked over slowly, picked up Sun Quan's saber, walked in front of Sun Quan, offered it with both hands, and asked softly at the same time, "King, who do you want to summon?" ”
Sun Quan glanced at him, took the saber, and slowly inserted it into the sheath. He tidied up the crown belt that had been crooked, and said in a dumb voice: "Summoning the crown prince Sun Deng, the left general Zhuge Jin, the partial general is Yi, the Jianwu Zhonglang general Hu Zong, and the cavalry captain Zhuge Ke enter the palace to discuss matters." ”
"Whoa."
"In addition, send a copy of this military newspaper to Buqi."
"Whoa."
……
Wu County, Fuchun Mountain.
A delicate courtyard is hidden in the thick shade of the trees, revealing a sharp corner. In the atrium, a middle-aged woman in a strong suit is dancing a sword. She has a delicate face, a vigorous figure, and a long sword that shines like a silver dragon in her hand. Her face was ruddy, and her green hair was mixed with a few gray hairs, which looked very dazzling in the warm winter sun.
She is Mrs. Sun, the legendary Sun Shangxiang in later generations.
Sun Luban sat under the porch, leaning comfortably on a soft couch, watching Mrs. Sun dance the sword, while constantly stuffing all kinds of snacks into his mouth. Compared with the days when she was a prisoner in Wuling, her skin was obviously whiter, and her body was plumper. Under the wide brocade robe, her lower abdomen bulged slightly.
"Okay, auntie, don't practice, no matter how well you practice, you won't have much chance to fight." Sun Luban quipped while eating: "You are unlucky, accept your fate." ”
"Shut up!" Mrs. Sun paused and glared at Sun Luban: "So many things can't stop your mouth?" ”
Sun Luban pouted indifferently: "There are no outsiders here, what's wrong with me saying a few words." ”
"You just can't control yourself, and that's why you get into trouble." Mrs. Sun played with a sword flower, put away the sword, walked quickly in front of Sun Luban, and looked down at Sun Luban with an innocent face: "I warn you, you'd better be restrained." No matter when this war ends, your father will not let you go. If you continue to do this, one day he will lose patience. ”
"Listen to what you mean, as if Wei Ba's dog thing has won?" Sun Luban snorted: "Don't forget, the auxiliary general has already set out to fight, with him in command, and then there is a three-way army, with Wei Ba and those thousands of barbarians, can he be his opponent?" ”
"If you don't enter the mountain, Wei Ba really has no chance of winning. But once he entered the mountain, it was difficult for him to win. Madame Sun took a piece of cloth from the maid's hand and slowly wiped the spotless long sword, her tone calm but full of worry that could not be concealed. Judging from Wei Ba's several achievements, he is good at using strange, and the barbarians know the terrain in the mountains well, starting from General Fubo, the Han people have conquered Wuxi all times, once they enter the mountain, they are not the opponents of the barbarians, not to mention that there are people like Wei Ba to command. The auxiliary general is not a god, if he can take the three-way army out, it will be a surprise, if he wants to defeat Wei Ba, unless there is only one possibility. ”
"What is possible?"
"Wei Ba was kicked in the head by a donkey, and suddenly became a fool."
Sun Luban was stunned for a moment, snorted, and squirted out all the snacks in his mouth. She pointed at Mrs. Sun and smiled. Mrs. Sun looked at her quietly, without a smile on her face. Sun Luban laughed for a while, and suddenly felt a little bored, and while grabbing the snack again and stuffing it into his mouth, he said viciously: "I really hope that Wuxi Man is not a divine dog, but a divine donkey, and it is good to kick that bastard to death." ”
"How can you say that?" Mrs. Sun frowned: "Anyway, he is your man, even if you don't like him, you can't curse him like this." ”
Sun Luban's eyebrows were upside down, and he screamed: "Who said he was my man?" ”
"And where did this kid come from? Could it be ......?"
"Of course not, how many times have I told you, I didn't work as a prostitute." Sun Luban jumped up and said with a blushing face: "This child's father is a gentleman, a gentleman with status, a hundred times stronger than Wei Ba's bastard. ”
"Who the hell is that?" Mrs. Sun was annoyed, "Do you know that your father ordered the three-way army to go on an expedition, just thinking that the child in your belly was Wei Ba." ”
Sun Luban's words were sluggish, she rolled her eyes, and argued forcefully: "That's his own stupidity, what does it have to do with me." ”
Mrs. Sun was speechless with anger, and turned around and entered the inner courtyard. Sun Luban snorted twice unconvinced, and was about to say something more, when there was a sudden commotion outside the door, followed by the crown prince Sun Deng hurriedly walked in, glanced at Sun Luban, and frowned: "Big Tiger, where is my aunt?"
