Chapter five hundred and twentieth eight bad breath
The Jiangdong Army camp was filled with gloom and gloom, and the officers and soldiers were all worried and worried.
Because there have been rumors among the army recently that Jingzhou Army's troops on the south route have captured Luling County.
This news was like a thunderbolt from the blue to the Jiangdong Army soldiers. They came from Shuojiang to rescue Yuzhang and Luling. Now that both counties have been lost, the soldiers' fighting spirit has dropped sharply, and they all want to return to Wu.
.
Not only were the soldiers below eager to return, but the coach Zhou Yu also wanted to retreat because the rumors were leaked by people around him.
A few days ago, Zhou Yu received information from the southern scouts that the Jingzhou Army captured Luling County on November 12th, and Sun Fu was defeated and missing. Now it is November 25th, and it has already been
Thirteen days have passed, which means that Liu Jing may transfer the Jingzhou Army in the direction of Luling back to Chaisang at any time.
Zhou Yu currently has only 20,000 troops under his command. Facing Chai Sang, the Jingzhou Army on the Pengze front line is still at a disadvantage. Once the Jingzhou Army from the Luling direction returns north, the consequences can be imagined.
What makes Zhou Yu even more helpless is that Sun Yi, the prefect of Danyang who was supposed to send troops to reinforce him, was hampered by the rebellion in Ma and Bao Ertun within the territory, and there was no hope for him in the short term.
Sun Quan, who was stationed in Dantu, did not dare to leave lightly at this time, lest Wu Hui's backyard catch fire.
This is the current situation Zhou Yu is facing. Liu Jing raised a tree and turned to the enemy to attack. The situation is overwhelming. Zhou Yu is isolated and helpless. It is impossible to recapture Yuzhang and Luling counties. Instead of putting himself in danger, it is better to retreat to Danyang Spring Valley.
, rearrange the defense line.
The geographical location of Spring Valley is excellent. Dong Ke and Sun Quan of Dantu are at odds with each other, and Nan Ke and Sun Yi of Wanling are helping each other. If Liu Jing dares to rely on strength and underestimate the enemy and march in, Zhou Yu will definitely give him an unforgettable experience in Spring Valley.
lesson.
Zhou Yu urgently wrote to Sun Quan to inform him of his thoughts, and expected a reply soon. Zhou Yu expected that Sun Quan would definitely agree. His current worry was how to lead the army to evacuate safely.
Just then, Liu Ye came.
Zhou Yu was immediately overjoyed. He was dozing off on his pillow. Whatever he thought of came to him. Zhou Yu hurriedly sent people to recruit Cheng Pu, Lu Fan, Lu Su and others to accompany him out of the camp to meet the angel.
The Zhen chariot, symbolizing the emperor's envoy, was parked outside the Jiangdong Army camp. Out of curiosity, the officers and soldiers in the camp all looked up and started talking.
Liu Ye sat in the car all the time, acting like an envoy of the emperor. It was not until Zhou Yu, Cheng Pu, Lu Fan, Lu Su and others greeted him outside the car that Liu Ye calmly got out of the car.
Liu Ye glanced at the Jiangdong generals and snorted secretly. These people in front of him were all the enemies who followed Sun Ce and chased him to heaven and earth. Liu Ye finally turned his eyes back to Lu Su and Zhou Yu.
He smiled and said, "Zijing, Gongjin, are you okay?"
Without waiting for their response, Liu Ye said to Lu Su: "I wrote a letter to invite you a few years ago, but the promise in Zijing's letter has not yet arrived. This matter has always made me worried. Since Zijing can't come, then I
I can only come to you in person."
Lu Su couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Brother, are you here to challenge me today?"
A few years ago, Liu Ye took refuge with Zheng Bao and wrote to Lu Su to invite Lu Su to discuss the plan. Lu Susu and Liu Ye got along well and regarded each other as brothers. They were already preparing to go. However, Zhou Yu also valued Lu Su's talents and sent him ahead of time.
His mother took him to Jiangdong, so Lu Su had to stay in Jiangdong.
Soon Liu Ye killed Zheng Bao and turned to Liu Xun. He was later defeated by Sun Ce and fled to Jingzhou. At that time, Lu Su was quite lucky. If he defected to Liu Ye, he would inevitably become a lost dog. In comparison,
Both Sun Ce and Sun Quan are heroes in the world, far from being comparable to the likes of Zheng Bao and Liu Xun.
Who would have thought that Liu Ye followed Liu Xun to defect to Cao Cao, but within a few years he gained Cao Cao's attention and returned to Yangzhou as the emperor's envoy, which made Lu Su lament Liu Ye's fate.
Liu Ye asked with a smile: "Zijing lived in Jiangdong and never returned. I guess he must have been highly regarded by Sun (Quan) in Kuaiji. I don't know what his current position is?"
Lu Su looked embarrassed and was speechless for a moment. Sun Quan treated him very kindly and relied on him as his confidant. However, because he was not favored by Zhang Zhao and because he worked hard to promote the alliance between Sun and Liu, he was criticized by everyone in Jiangdong.
Due to criticism, he has not been promoted for several years, and he is still an official in the general's palace.
Zhou Yu frowned. After all, when he tried to persuade Lu Su to stay, he swore that "whoever carries the Liu family will flourish in the southeast." He praised Sun Quan for being "a close relative of virtuous and noble men, and he was able to absorb strange things and record strange things." He also advised Lu Su to "climb the dragon and follow the phoenix."
.
As a result, to this day, Jiangdong not only shows no sign of prosperity, but is in danger of losing its resources. Although Lu Su was reused, he was in a low position and had little power.
This made Zhou Yu somewhat confused, and he said: "Zijing is wise and fruitful, has great vision, and has extraordinary wisdom. Sun Tuulu entrusts him with the task of sharing his position. However, although Sun Tuulu is a foreign vassal of the country, he is not a vassal.
He dared to overstep his authority, so Zijing temporarily stayed in the general's palace to fight against the captives."
Liu Ye said with a surprised look on his face: "With Zijing's talents, he can only be relegated to the position of Lingshi. It seems that Jiangdong is really full of talents."
Zhou Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly, no longer arguing.
Seeing Zhou Yu's silence and Lu Su's shame, Liu Ye finally got rid of the bad breath that had been suppressing him for several years and stopped sarcastically sarcastically. Su Rong said: "Emperor, Mr. Cao heard in the capital that General Annan Liu Jingshan was launching an army.
We are all worried about provoking and invading Yangzhou, so I was specially sent to go south with the imperial edict to mediate the disputes in Jingzhou."
"Liu Jing has a strange heart, is tolerant and thoughtful, and is as thoughtful as a god. He is not a human minister. The country must be on guard." Zhou Yu said: "Liu Jing slandered Sun (Bian) Yuzhang and allowed the invaders to rob Changsha, under the guise of humiliating the people.
In the name of conquering the enemy, we surrendered and surrendered the army. The three groups advanced at the same time and had great potential to annex the east of the Yangtze River. Now they not only occupy the Yuzhang area, but also take Luling as their own."
"Even Luling was lost?" Liu Ye's heart sank when he heard it. Liu Jing was indeed as powerful as the rumors. In just two months, he even defeated the two counties of Yuzhang and Luling, and Jiangdong Army was completely in front of him.
No resistance.
Liu Ye had no time to spare and immediately followed Zhou Yu into the military camp. He held a secret meeting with Zhou Yu and Lu Su in the tent. It was not until an hour later that he left and took a boat to Chaisang to see Liu Jing.
Liu Jing's warships were all over the river. As soon as Liu Ye arrived, Liu Jing received the news and summoned all the civil and military personnel early to wait at the county temple.
Because Liu Jing had given instructions in advance, Liu Ye was ushered into the county hall without any hindrance.
Liu Ye Guanjian held the imperial edict and went straight into the hall. Ignoring the dozens of sharp sword-like eyes on both sides, he quietly looked at Liu Jing who was sitting in the main seat. He looked like a dragon and a phoenix, and he said loudly:
"Annan General Liu Jing accepted the imperial edict."
Liu Jing was about to step forward to receive the imperial edict. At this time, Sheng Kuang was so shocked that he ignored etiquette. He grabbed Liu Jing's sleeve and said urgently: "General, don't step forward!"
