After Lu Xun arrived at Linhao, he was not in a hurry to fight. On the one hand, he mobilized a large army, raised grain and grass, and reorganized the army for war, and on the other hand, he sent people to meet Wei Ba. He said to Wei Ba, Wu and Han are allies, not enemies, you attacked Yanguan because of the Xiongxi tribe, it is understandable, and now the Xiongxi tribe has returned it to you, Lu Kai and Liu Yan are dead, and Yanguan is also occupied by you, and you will be treacherous to attack Jiaozhou again. The war is protracted and a heavy burden on both sides. For the sake of the people of the world, I hope you can sit down and talk about it, and don't expand the situation.

Wei Ba expressed disdain for this, he handed over the negotiation to Fei Yi, and went to manage military affairs himself. He said to Fei Yi, I hope that the negotiation can be completed, so that we can support the Guanzhong battlefield at any time, but Lu Xun will definitely use this to blackmail us, so we must base ourselves on the fact that the negotiation cannot be achieved, and the war will be handed over to me, and the negotiation will be handed over to you. You don't have to feel the psychological pressure, it's a big deal to fight again.

Fei Yi couldn't cry or laugh. He knew that Wei Ba was reasonable, and he would talk on the basis of what could not be negotiated, so that he would not be coerced by Eastern Wu, but in fact, now Shu Han really needs Wei Ba to withdraw from the Jiaozhou battlefield, if he is still so tough, is it not appropriate? Sun Quan is a good-looking person, you occupy almost the entire Jiaozhou, and you are only willing to leave one Nanhai County to him, can he agree?

Fei Yi wondered if Wei Ba didn't want to go back to Chengdu at all, he just wanted to dominate Jiaozhou and not leave, so that Prime Minister Zhuge would not be able to force him to leave Jiaozhou and return to Chengdu. He once asked Wei Ba half-jokingly, and Wei Ba looked at him with a smile. "Guess." Then Fei Yi retreated with a weak heart.

Fei Yi came to Lu Xun's camp and conveyed Wei Ba's meaning to Lu Xun. Lu Xun waved his hand expressionlessly: "Since that's the case." Then you go to Wuchang to negotiate, Wei Ba wants to prepare for war, I also have to prepare for war, maybe when we really fight, he will be willing to sit down and talk. ”

Fei Yi was a little surprised, but he still maintained that arrogance on his face: "General Lu, you are a long-established general, and against Wei Ba, winning is nothing, losing the battle." However, the reputation of the general is not good. Last time in Chenyang. You returned in vain, it was Wei Ba who took the advantage first, and you were seriously ill, which is still reasonable. If you lose again this time. But there's no reason to say that. ”

Lu Xun smiled disappreciatively: "You're right." I just want to prove whether I am Wei Ba's opponent or not. Victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and I have not been defeated, so I can afford this setback. He looked at Fei Yi meaningfully: "But." Can Wei Ba be defeated? ”

Fei Yi's smile was a little unnatural. He knew what Lu Xun meant, and compared to Lu Xun, Wei Ba couldn't afford to be defeated. And the situation at this moment is not good for Wei Ba. Although Wei Ba's subordinates have 30,000 people, they are still training, and it is really difficult to say whether they can come in handy. Lu Xun's subordinates also have more than 30,000 people, but they are the elite of the war. This battle was different from the past, it was a frontal battle between large armies, not Wei Ba's specialty - at least he had not experienced such a large-scale battle, and Lu Xun was a master of commanding this kind of battle.

Comparatively speaking, Wei Ba's chances of victory are very limited, and once he is defeated and the aura of the god general is broken, his situation is very dangerous. Not only can't Jiaozhou be saved, but I'm afraid even Wuling will be a problem.

Lu Xun wanted to destroy Wei Ba before he matured, and his intentions were not sinister.

Although Fei Yi was nervous, his face did not show anything, he hahadaxiao, rushed to Wuchang, and negotiated with Sun Quan. After leaving the camp, the smile on Fei Yi's face disappeared. He frowned and hesitated. He wanted to inform Wei Ba, but he didn't think it would be useful. From another point of view, letting Wei Ba learn a lesson may be more in line with the prime minister's meaning. When Wei Ba was sent to Wuling, the prime minister didn't expect Wei Ba to go far, and thwarting the conspiracy of the Wu army to march into Yizhou was a success, and now this goal has been achieved, whether or not to occupy Jiaozhou is not within the prime minister's jihua, let Wei Ba suffer a little, don't be so self-righteous anymore, maybe it's a good result.

Fei Yi rushed to Wuchang with mixed feelings, and on the way, he wrote a report of his thoughts and sent it to Guanzhong on a fast horse.

……

Wuchang, Sun Quan stood in front of the fish pond, looking at the small red fish spitting bubbles in the water, silent and a little gloomy. The crown prince Sun Deng stood behind him, arching his hands, not even daring to come out. Gu Cheng and Zhang Xiu stood in the distance, glancing at Sun Quan's father and son from time to time.

Sun Quan was very angry because he received Lu Xun's letter. Half a month ago, Pan Jun wrote a letter requesting that Lu Xun be sent to the Linhe battlefield to command the war, and Sun Quan was very dissatisfied. However, considering Pan Jun's new defeat, I am afraid that he will not be able to convince the public, and Wei Ba's momentum is too strong, so he has to reluctantly make it difficult and order Lu Xun to rush to Linhe. As a result, before Lu Xun arrived in Linhao, the two of them coincidentally wrote to ask for tax reduction, benevolent government, and rest with the people. The only difference is that Pan Jun asked for a tax reduction for the people of Jingzhou, while Lu Xun asked for a tax reduction for everyone in Wu.

Such an opinion has not been unheard of before, but this time the request was very fierce, and there were two reasons why Sun Quan could not accept it. Lu Xun used his experience in Chenyang as a reason, and Pan Jun used Wei Ba's behavior in Jiaozhou as a reason to prove the cliché that those who win the hearts of the people win the world. As the head of a country, can he not know the truth of the people's will? But is it time to leave Renzheng? Lu Xun asked for tax exemption and exemption on the one hand, but on the other hand, he asked for money and food, what is going on?

What made Sun Quan even more angry, he originally wanted to take this opportunity to educate the crown prince Sun Deng not to be confused by the beautiful words of the courtiers, but after the prince Sun Deng read the book of Lu Pan and the others, he echoed their opinions. This made Sun Quan angry, and scolded Sun Deng with his head and face, and even the two auxiliary ministers around the prince were beaten.

The prince has four friends, in addition to Zhuge Ke, there are Chen Biao, Zhang Xiu and Gu Tan, who are the four young heroes arranged by Sun Quan to the prince, Chen Biao is Chen Wu's concubine, after the martial arts, not long ago he was also arranged by Sun Quan to lead the troops to exercise, and the remaining Zhang Xiu is Zhang Zhao's second son, Gu Tan is Gu Yong's grandson, his mother is Sun Ce's daughter, and the Sun family is considered to be related by blood. However, these two people were both believers in Confucianism, after Zhuge Ke and Chen Biao left the East Palace. Under their influence, Sun Deng became more and more obedient to Confucianism. Sun Quan had already been aware of this, but he didn't expect Sun Deng to be so confused.

Sun Quan regretted it a little, it was too anxious to let Zhuge Ke and Chen Biao go out to lead the troops too early, and it might be a mistake to hand over Sun Deng to the two Confucian assistants.

Now, his son has become Lu Xun's spokesperson, and he actually talked to him about benevolence. Big fart, you know what benevolence is, you know what is the real purpose of their demand for benevolence, do you know who the people are in their mouths?

"Zigao. How many times have you read the Book of Han? Sun Quan asked in a deep voice.

"I read it three times."

"It doesn't seem to be enough. Go back and read again. ”

Sun Deng was stunned for a moment and lowered his head: "Huh." He took a few steps back, bowed respectfully, and then turned and left. Zhang Xiu and Gu Tan followed out of the hall. Got in the car. Zhang Xiu asked, "Your Highness." What did the king say? ”

Sun Deng told what happened just now, and Zhang Xiu was puzzled: "The king asked you about the story of the Book of Han?" ”

"Nope." Sun Deng was confused, he really didn't understand that Sun Quan weishenme said that he hadn't read enough of the Book of Han. I'm going to read it again.

Zhang Xiu wanted to ask again, Gu Tan waved his hand and glanced at him: "Still don't understand?" Go back and read more "The Yuan Emperor Era". ”

Zhang Xiu suddenly realized, and Sun Deng let out an "oh" and understood. This is Sun Quan's dissatisfaction with their Confucian benevolent government advice, reminding them of the Han family's domineering way of ruling the world. It seems that Sun Quan is not generally dissatisfied with him, and even Zhang Xiu, who taught the Book of Han, was criticized.

The three of them were relatively speechless for a while, and Sun Deng's eyes became lonely.

"Yuan Xun ......" Gu Tan suddenly said, and stopped talking: "It's really ......" He looked at Zhang Xiu and didn't say any more. Zhuge Ke's sister is married to Zhang Xiu's brother Zhang Cheng, and they are both the four friends of the crown prince, and it may not be appropriate for him to criticize Zhuge Ke behind his back.

However, he didn't say that Sun Deng and Zhang Xiu could guess, it must have been Zhuge Ke who was too anxious for meritorious service and offended Zhu Ji and Zhou Yi, causing them to refuse to listen to Pan Jun's command, and Zhuge Ke himself lost Linhe, which forced Pan Jun to hand over the military power to Lu Xun, which disrupted Sun Quan's jihua and touched the thorn in Sun Quan's heart.

As soon as Sun Deng and the others walked out, Sun Luban walked out of the shadows, walked to Sun Quan's side with his stomach up, and glanced at the direction in which Sun Deng left: "Father, I'm not wrong, right?" They just use the saint's excuse to benefit themselves, and they only have home in their eyes, and there is no country. ”

"You're pregnant, and you can't give birth for a while?" Sun Quan was angry, and scolded angrily: "If you talk more, go back to Fuchun and stay." ”

"I don't." Sun Luban hugged Sun Quan's arm and shook it twice, "My aunt is not there, I am bored and uncomfortable alone." ”

"Then you should accompany your mother in peace, don't run around, it's not shameful enough, isn't it?" Although Sun Quan said viciously, his face softened, he raised his hand and pinched Sun Luban's plump face, and sighed: "Big Tiger, you have made your father miserable." ”

"Father, don't be bitter." Sun Luban's eyes rolled: "You let people surround Linyuan and tie up Zhao Tong for me, the child in my belly will not have a father, and you can also recapture Wuling." ”

"What a bad idea!" Sun Quan couldn't cry or laugh, and gently pushed Sun Luban away: "It's still a fart, your father and I are so poor, these people still have to reduce taxes, and then reduce and exempt, what do we eat?" Wei Ba is a disaster, Kong Ming, you have made me miserable. ”

"Father, is Wei Ba that powerful?" Sun Luban blinked: "I think he's no different from ordinary people." ”

"You know what." Sun Quan smiled bitterly: "He harmed your father like this, and it's not bad, so won't your father become a fool?" ”

"Not really." Sun Luban disagreed: "He's just a little skillful." I don't think he's capable of anything other than building some machinery. If you want to talk about mechanical arts, we also have such people, you are like that named Zhang ...... Zhang ......"

Sun Quan's heart suddenly moved: "Zhang Fen." ”

"Yes, Zhang Fen." Sun Luban nodded again and again: "I heard Wei Ba say that Zhang Fen's hands are smarter than him, but he is not as skilled as him in any reason." ”

"Wei Ba really said that?" Sun Quan interrupted Sun Luban and said anxiously.

"I heard him say it with my own ears." Sun Luban said loudly: "He also said that Wu has Zhang Fen and Wei has Ma Jun, both of whom are skillful, but they don't have the same opportunities as him." If they had the same resources as him, they wouldn't have to be worse than him. ”

Sun Quan laughed and pinched Sun Luban's round nose: "Big Tiger, you are still useful, you were not caught by Wei Ba in vain." ”

"Father, what are you talking about?" Sun Luban pinched his waist and stomped his feet angrily.

"Haha, my father is wrong, my father is wrong." Sun Quan was in a good mood and comforted him repeatedly. "Big Tiger, you've done a great job. Do you know, my father has been thinking about how to ask Wei Ba for a warship, but he didn't expect that he would have such a talent. If Zhang Fen was really as good as Wei Ba said, and he could refit the warship stronger, it would not be so difficult for his father to send someone to Liaodong to buy horses. ”

Sun Luban turned his anger into joy and smiled: "Then how do you reward me?" Arrest Zhao Tong and marry me? ”…… (To be continued......)
