Chapter 59 Arrive at Wuxi Man (please read, please vote, please invest)
Although Lu Meng's words were meant to be inquiring, his tone was so firm that even a fool could tell that he had no intention of letting Sima Yi refuse.
After listening to Lu Meng's words, Sima Yi felt furious.
No matter how much talent in Jiangdong dwindles, it is not so dwindling that it is possible for people from other forces to serve as his staff.
Lu Meng said it nicely, but he actually wanted to tie himself to him to prevent him from leaking what he just saw.
Because he understood Lu Meng's intention, Sima Yi couldn't help crying in his heart,
Why are there always people trying to harm him?
Cao Cao was like this, and so is Lu Meng today.
When Cao Cao asked him to send Sun Quan as an envoy, it was already a very dangerous thing.
Fortunately, he got wise later and before leaving, he suggested that Cao Cao entrust Sun Quan with a title.
It was with such sincerity that he was treated favorably by Sun Quan after arriving in Jiangdong, and he was safe from danger.
Now, Lu Meng wants to take him into the army again.
The battle between the two armies was extremely dangerous.
It's okay to say that everything is going well for Jiangdong's army.
If once the Jiangdong army is overturned and encounters the defeat of Hefei like in the past,
In such a defeat, Jiangdong's generals had too much time to take care of themselves.
He is a minister of the Wei State, how can anyone care about him?
At that time, his life was completely out of his control.
Sima Yi immediately wanted to reject Lu Meng verbally, but when he saw the determined look on Lu Meng's face, he could only lower his head under the eaves.
"Yi is happy to receive Governor Lu's invitation."
Although he was very reluctant, Sima Yi was good at forbearing.
At least judging from his expression and tone at this time, others would think that he was very happy to accept this kind of thing.
But in fact, Sima Yi already deeply hated Lu Meng.
When the prince ascends the throne in the future, he will have the opportunity to take charge of the military. He must personally conquer Jiangdong to avenge today's revenge.
Lu Meng certainly didn't know the hatred deep in Sima Yi's heart.
The real reason why he had the idea of taking Sima Yi with him was exactly what Sima Yi thought.
Today's war is related to Jiangdong's national destiny for a century. In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, he cannot just listen to Sima Yi's one-sided words.
He wanted to look at Sima Yi in person.
Lu Meng felt that as long as he took Sima Yi with him, Sima Yi would never have the chance to reveal his condition.
And by the time things are over, it doesn't matter whether Sima Yi leaked it or not.
After all, it is not yet known whether he, Lu Meng, was still alive at that time.
Lu Meng turned his head and looked at the magnificent meeting hall on the steps. Thinking of the Jiangdong Supreme in the meeting hall, Lu Meng's inner thoughts became firm again.
The reason why he strongly recommended Sun Quan to capture Jingzhou was actually the most important one among the reasons he just mentioned in the meeting hall:
Now don't try to do it when you are strong. Once you become stiff and want to regain your strength, will you get evil?
No one in his body knows better than himself that he, Lu Meng, has only a few days to live.
Lu Meng came from a humble background, and he had been looked down upon since childhood.
Although Lü Meng served when Sun Ce was in charge of Jiangdong, it was Sun Quan who really appreciated him and spared no effort to promote him.
I still remember that back then, Sun Quan stroked his back and warned him earnestly:
Your Majesty is now in charge of Tu's affairs, so you should learn something to benefit yourself. Why don't you just encourage yourself to do evil?
If it weren't for Sun Quan's kindness in urging students to learn regardless of his dignity, there would be no scholar like Lu Ziming who would look at him with admiration after three days of separation.
This kind of kindness has always been remembered by Lu Meng, who was bullied since childhood.
Now that he doesn't have much time left, it's time for him to repay Sun Quan.
If he can succeed this time and capture Guan Yu, then let him personally eliminate this serious problem for his master.
If Mi Yang knew that Jiangdong's Deer Cooking Group had added Sima Yi as a great talent due to Lu Meng's efforts, Mi Yang would definitely scold:
"This guy doesn't have martial ethics."
"No wonder it was short-lived."
Wang Hong and several soldiers who protected him finally arrived at the main gathering place of Wuxi Barbarians after a long journey and numerous hardships.
Although the entire Wuxi Man tribe is distributed along the five streams in Wuling County.
But in fact, the main tribes of the Wuxi Barbarians are mainly concentrated in the Xiongxi area.
Samoko, the barbarian king of Wuxi, also lived near Xiongxi.
Wuxi barbarians have been around for a long time. They are different from the Han people, whose men farm and women weave. They mainly make a living by fishing and hunting.
Because the tribe does not have the concept of farming and weaving, once winter comes, which is not suitable for fishing and hunting, the life of their entire tribe will become very difficult.
However, because of the hardship in life, Wuximan developed a brave and fierce character.
Wuxi barbarians have long lived with wild beasts in the mountains and forests, and their sentinels bear the heavy responsibility of warning against sneak attacks by wild beasts.
The traces of wild beasts in the mountains and forests can be easily discovered by these sentinels, not to mention the few strangers like Wang Hong who carelessly broke into the Wuxi Barbarian territory.
Therefore, when Wang Hong and others walked through the jungle and arrived near Xiongxi, they were immediately discovered by the Wuxi barbarian sentries.
The Wuxi barbarian sentries were armed with bamboo spears, wore animal skins, and had disheveled hair.
Their bodies were covered with strange tattoos. As soon as they discovered the traces of Wang Hong and others, they immediately jumped down from the trees and surrounded Wang Hong and others.
Seeing that it was not a wild beast that was attacking, the sentinels of Wuxi Man secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But the unfamiliar faces of Wang Hong also made them wary.
The oldest of these sentinels is over forty.
When they were young, they were often surrounded and suppressed by the officers and soldiers of Wuling County.
Although in recent years, the relationship between the Barbarian King Samoko and the Wuling County officials has improved a lot because of his admiration for the Han Dynasty, they still have to be wary.
Seeing that several savage-like sentries were pointing bamboo spears at him, Wang An and other soldiers who were guarding Wang Hong instantly pulled Wang Hong behind him to protect him.
But this scene made Wang Hong dissatisfied.
He came as an envoy to Samoko on the orders of Mi Yang, the former general of the Han Dynasty.
After all, he is still a messenger, so why not hide behind him?
Wang Hong pushed aside the protection of Wang An and others and came to the sentry of Wuxi Man.
Then he bowed to the one who seemed to be the leader among the dozen barbarian soldiers surrounding him and said,
"I am an envoy of the imperial court. I am here to pay a visit to the Barbarian King of Wuxi on the order of the imperial court. I hope you can introduce him to me."
As a member of a noble family, Wang Hong's greeting etiquette and language were not unstandardized, but it was a pity that he used the wrong words.
The little leader of the Wuxi Barbarian Sentinels opposite him had a look of confusion on his face after listening to Wang Hong's self-introduction.
Then the little leader spoke,
"Jili Gulu flower dew"
Wang Hong:???
The strange pronunciation and even more strange words of the barbarian leader caused Wang Hong to lose his computer for a moment.
On his first mission, he seemed to have overlooked something very important.
Didn’t it mean that everyone in Wuxi Man admired Han culture?
I already admire them, at least learn Chinese!
