On the Wei army's position, Xin Bi was also very emaciated. From the moment he rushed to Sima Yi's camp, attacked Dunse, marched in a hurry, and started the battle when he arrived at the foot of Fancheng, there was no time to rest. Now his face was dusty, greasy, and dirty.

But Sima Yi obviously had no idea of resting, he sat on the command platform with his waist straight, with a book and a glass of wine in his hand. Most of the time, he was reading a book, occasionally putting down his book, taking a sip of wine, and then having a tasteful sip.

If it weren't for those war drums and shouts of killing, if there was no strong smell of blood in the air, if Sima Yi's face didn't have the oiliness that was shining by the firelight, Xin Bi would have had the illusion that this was not on a cruel battlefield, but on a spring outing on the shore of the Han River.

March is a good time to go green.

Xin Bi had to express his admiration for Sima Yi's calmness.

"General, do you have any other arrangements?" Xin Bi couldn't help asking.

"Other arrangements?" Sima Yi looked at Xin Bi puzzled, and after a while, he shook his head: "No." After a pause, he said, "If there is, it is Bixia's wisdom." ”

What kind of person is Simbi, how can he not understand the meaning of it? I've done my best, and all my soldiers have thrown themselves into battle. If I still can't win, it just proves that I was right to ask for more military power in the first place, and I started from the overall situation. If you win by luck, it will also be a heavy loss, if you don't give me more soldiers, I can only be trapped in Fancheng, the siege of Xiangyang, you send someone else to solve it.

This is a gesture of loyalty, and it is also a demonstration. There is even another purpose. Defeated, and then logically withdrew from the court, since the Son of Heaven was worried that my military power was too heavy, then I simply handed over the military power and faded out of the court from then on. The next battle has nothing to do with me.

In the case of Cao Xiu's illness and death, Cao Zhen fell ill, if Sima Yi gave up his military power again, who could afford this burden? The Son of Heaven hesitated for so long, isn't he inseparable from Sima Yi.

"But. If Fancheng is lost. It's not good for our army. ”

Sima Yi shook his head and smiled disdainfully: "It's nothing if you lose it, Fancheng City is shallow and shallow, easy to gain and easy to lose." The Shu army went through this battle. Heavy losses. How could he occupy Fancheng for a long time? Honestly. I think Wei Ba seems to be too arrogant this time. Take Fancheng? Haha, what is the use of creating opportunities for the Wu people? George. What do you think? ”

Xin Bi shook his head: "The general has fought with him many times, but he can't guess what he wants to do, how dare I guess." However, Xiangyang is the gateway of my Great Wei, and it must not be lost. Otherwise, I'm afraid that Bixia will move the capital again, and you won't be able to stop it. ”

Sima Yi couldn't help but laugh, and couldn't help but hahadaxiao. Thinking of that successful admonition, he was still a little proud.

"It's been ten years." Sima Yi put away his laughter, his eyes a little lonely. "It's a pity that Emperor Wen died young. It would be nice if he was still here. ”

Simbi nodded sympathetically. Three generations of the Cao family, Emperor Wen Cao Pi is the closest to the family, although there are also precautions, but after he took power, the family no longer has to be as cautious as in the Cao Cao era. Two major events that were beneficial to the family: Chen Qun's promotion of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system and Sima Yi's command of the army both started in the hands of Cao Pi. It's a pity that Cao Pi died at the age of forty, but Cao Rui, who succeeded to the throne, was not like Cao Pi at all, he inherited Cao Cao's temper and guarded the family very strictly. Even if he is an auxiliary minister designated by Cao Pi, he cannot get a single bit of power from him.

"George, you said that Qin Lang and Tian Yu would have such a sense of smell, can they feel such an opportunity?"

Xin Bi's eyes flashed, and he shook his head: "Qin Lang is just a minister who entertains people with sex, how can he have such ability." Tian Yu, it's possible, but he is not familiar with the terrain here, so he has more than enough strength. ”

Sima Yi smacked his lips: "If that's the case, then it's a pity." ”

"Yes, if these iron cavalry are led by generals, how can the situation in Fancheng be so tense."

Sima Yi looked at Xin Bi, and the two laughed understandingly, shaking their heads helplessly while laughing, and their smiles slowly turned into bitter smiles.

……

On the south bank of the Han River, Lu Xun stood on a high watchtower and overlooked the battlefield on the north bank of the Han River. The cold spring breeze blew the sound of war drums across the Han River and into the hearts of every soldier in Xiangyang City.

Everyone knows very well that the gains and losses of Fancheng are very important to Xiangyang. Once the Shu army captured Fancheng, Xiangyang was completely isolated, and the Wu army would soon attack. And once the Shu army failed to attack the city and the Wei army recaptured Fancheng, the pontoon bridge would inevitably reconnect Xiangyang and Fancheng, and the Wu army could only retreat and give up this great opportunity.

"I don't know if Wei Ba's vertical has only a sharp mouth." Lu Lan, who was standing beside Lu Xun, said faintly, the meaning in his tone was very complicated, and there was a faint hint of sourness.

"I don't think he's." Lu Xun said: "Zhuge Liang is a masterpiece, he can value Wei Ba so much, whether it is important or jealous, it is enough to show that Wei Ba is not an ordinary person." Nakayama, you have to pay attention to this person, if you have the opportunity to lead the troops in the future, you will play against him sooner or later. ”

Lu Lan replied sullenly, he looked down on Wei Ba, but he believed in Lu Xun's vision. He was a little uncomfortable with Lu Xun attaching so much importance to Wei Ba. "With the general here, what kind of storm can Wei Ba set off. Perhaps, he will soon be defeated by the Wei army and reveal his true colors. ”

"To be able to support him in front of Sima Yi until now, he is already commendable." Lu Xun looked back at Lu Lan, turned around and walked down the watchtower: "Zhongshan, don't be rash. Only when the mind is quiet can we observe things calmly. ”

"Whoa." Lu Lan cautiously supported Lu Xun and followed suit.

Lu Xun stepped into the camp and stopped again, he turned his head, glanced at the north bank of the Han River again, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly said: "Call Zhu Ran, Zhu Huan, and Pan Zhang." ”

Lu Lan was taken aback: "General, do you want to cross the water to help?" ”

"So to speak." Lu Xun waved his hand and motioned for Lu Lan to do it immediately. Lu Lan didn't dare to ask again, thinking about Lu Xun's intentions, he went to find Zhu Ran and the others. It didn't take long for Zhu Ran and the three of them to come to Lu Xun's big tent one after another.

"Yifeng (Zhu Ran), you immediately prepare the warship and prepare to cross the water to fight. You two, be ready to strike at any time. ”

Zhu Ran's eyes were cold, and before he could say anything, Pan Zhang was already furious, and shouted dissatisfiedly: "General, Wei Ba's son insulted my father and son so much, and you still want me to save him?" ”

Zhu Ran also sneered: "General, I'm worried that they will attack us like last time, indiscriminately." ”

Lu Xun swept his eyes around and didn't say anything, but Zhu Ran and the others subconsciously closed their mouths, the anger in their eyes was still there, but no one dared to refute.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this time, that time." Lu Xun said unhurriedly: "The last time the Shu army was like a bamboo, and it easily broke through the pontoon bridge, so that it had the strength to provoke our army. Now they have been fighting with the Wei army for two days, and even if they win, it will be a tragic victory, where can they still attack you. ”

Zhu Ran snorted and twisted his head. Pan Zhang's face was pale, his arms were crossed, and he looked like he didn't care.

"Wei Shu is both defeated, and it is a good opportunity for our army to attack." Lu Xun sank his face: "The three of you are all veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time, why don't you even understand this?" Is it for the sake of the general? ”

Zhu Ran raised his eyebrows, and suddenly understood: "General, do you mean that no matter Wei Shu, he may become the target of our attack?" ”

Lu Xun glanced at him and chuckled: "I can't rule out this possibility." However, at this time, we should still regard the Wei army as the main target. Inflicting heavy losses on the Wei army will greatly increase our chances of capturing Xiangyang. ”

Zhu Ran suddenly realized, and clapped his big hand: "General Gaojian, it's me who is confused." ”

Zhu Huan raised his eyebrows and understood. Pan Zhang was still immersed in depression and disdained it. Lu Xun ignored him, he knew that as long as the order was given, Pan Zhang would carry it out no matter how reluctant he was. As a heavy general raised by Sun Quan, Pan Zhang's loyalty is impeccable.

Lu Xun immediately made corresponding arrangements, Zhu Ran's sailors were ready to transport troops, and Zhu Huan and Pan Zhang each led their headquarters, a total of 10,000 people, ready to cross the Han River at any time and participate in the battle. Their goal was not to assist the Shu army, but to encourage them to fight with the Wei army for a while longer and increase their consumption. When the Shu army could not support it, the Wu army might make a timely move, inflict heavy damage on the Wei army, and if necessary, capture Fancheng. Holding Fan Cheng in his own hands can be truly reassuring for Wu Guo.

Zhu Ran and the others were overjoyed when they heard this, and their original dissatisfaction disappeared, and they went separately to prepare. Lu Lan was overjoyed, and said convincingly: "General, your method is good." I'll just say, Wei Ba's shaft is definitely not the general's opponent. ”

Although Lu Xun is not smiling, he is also quite complacent. Wei Ba was bent on facilitating the exchange of troops between Wu and Wei, so as to attract Wei's troops to the area around Xiangyang and buy respite for Guanzhong. But how could he let Wei Ba get what he wanted so easily. Now, although the Wu army surrounded Xiangyang, it did not launch a real attack, but the Shu army and the Wei army had been defeated.

"Wei Ba, this time, can you still profit from it?" Lu Xun smiled to himself.

"Haha, he can still make profits, and he is lucky not to die on the battlefield." Lu Lan said happily.

"If he really dies on the battlefield, it will indeed be a good result for my Great Wu." Lu Xun smiled and shook his head: "However, I don't think he will be so short-lived." Although he was brave, he was not a reckless man. People in the Chinese army, the probability of death is very small. Alas, it is really rare for such a young man to have the courage and not be ashamed. ”

Lu Lan laughed silently, he knew who Lu Xun was praising and despising whom. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
