Chapter 782: Attacking Wu's Prosecution, Lu Dai is shaken
At the end of December in the sixth year of Emperor Zhangwu of the Han Dynasty, China was about to enter a new year.
Under Sun Quan's pressure, Lu Dai, who had just recovered his health, finally led his army to set off from Yong'an.
In Yong'an Port, there is a warship fleet formed by Soochow.
Although this fleet was not considered the main force in the Soochow Navy in the past.
But when the main force of the Wu army was trapped in Jingzhou, the Soochow navy in the hands of Lu Dai was the undisputed overlord on the Yangtze River at this time.
Dozens of tall buildings, like giants on the water, were running rampant on the rushing river.
Guarding the dozens of high-rise ships were nearly a thousand warships of various sizes, including sterns, gondolas, fighting ships and other warships.
Although there are various types of warships and an extremely large number, under years of training, this huge naval fleet of nearly 30,000 people has been marching on the river in an orderly manner.
Lu Dai, who was standing in the ship's loft on the bow floor, looked at the bow of the ship with the war flag fluttering in the wind, and felt a sense of pride in his heart.
Putting aside the misfortunes of the past few days, Lu Dai's spirit has been in a high state since he led his army to set off.
Whoever leads this powerful naval force will inevitably feel heroic in his heart, thinking of competing with any powerful force in the world on this wide river.
Even if that powerful force is the Tiance Army, which has never been defeated since its formation!
On the water, Soochow's navy was number one in the world.
"How long until we get to Chaisang?"
Lu Dai calmly asked Tai Shixiang, the deputy general behind him.
Taishi Xiang was the eldest son of Taishi Ci. After Taishi Ci passed away, Sun Quan was "deeply sad".
In order to better "take care" of Taishi Xiang, Sun Quan kept the young Taishi Xiang by his side.
From the perspective of outsiders, Sun Quan's behavior can be described as the most emotional and humane act.
However, if outsiders knew that Sun Quan used this move to take the opportunity to disband all the tribes left by Tai Shi Ci, they would probably be able to guess the real reason why Sun Quan loved Tai Shi Xiang.
When he was young, Taishi Xiang didn't understand this and was grateful to Sun Quan. However, as he grew older, Taishi Xiang also had some guesses in his mind.
Therefore, in order to protect himself, Tai Shixiang still did not dare to express himself too much even though he had been in the army for many years. For many years, he was only willing to be a partial general.
After hearing Lu Dai's inquiry, Taishi Xiang raised his hands and replied:
"According to the current flow rate, our army will arrive outside Chaisang City early tomorrow morning at the latest."
After receiving Tai Shixiang's answer, Lu Dai nodded with satisfaction.
According to the calculation of time, Lu Fan's reinforcements will arrive outside Chaisang City to join him in a few days.
By then, Chai Sang's crisis will basically be over.
Seeing that Lu Dai stopped talking, Tai Shixiang asked worriedly:
"Our army is supporting Chaisang in great strength, and the Han army outside Chaisang City will definitely know about it.
If the Han army attacks us halfway across the border when we land, what can be done?"
For a naval force, what they fear most is to attack halfway across the river.
It is normal for Taishi to have this worry.
But after listening to Tai Shixiang's worries, Lu Dai smiled easily and said:
"It doesn't matter.
Although there are many Han troops outside Chaisang City, most of them are mountain bandits.
Our army has more than 20,000 troops, and there are many warships to support it. If we want to prevent our army from landing, the Han army on the shore must not only be elite, but also must be at least as many as our army.
In addition, General He Qi still has thousands of elite troops outside Liling City, which is very close to Chaisang. When General He Qi learns of the upcoming news of our army, he will be on hand to provide support."
Lu Dai expressed his opinion while stroking his beard.
As a veteran for many years, the experienced Lu Dai knew that attacking halfway was a good tactic, but it was not that easy to do.
Lu Dai's explanation gradually made Tai Shixiang feel relieved.
At this moment, the sound of rapid footsteps reached Tai Shixiang's ears.
Tai Shixiang turned around and saw Lu Zheng coming behind him with a look of horror on his face.
Lu Dai turned around slightly and felt a little dissatisfied when he saw Lu Zheng's gaffe.
"How many times have my father taught you to stay calm when encountering trouble?
Now our army is approaching Chaisang, what could make you so panicked?"
Lu Dai first taught him a lesson and then asked.
Under Lu Dai's inquiry, Lu Zheng, who always abides by etiquette, forgot to salute first. He looked directly at Lu Dai's back and exclaimed:
"Father, our opponent is Mi Yang!"
Lu Ju's exclamation did not attract Lu Dai's attention.
Ding Feng and Jiang Ji are both Mi Yang's confidants, and fighting against them can also be indirectly seen as opposing Mi Yang.
But what's there to be alarmed about?
Isn't it just with Mi Yang...
Lu Dai's thoughts had not stopped yet. Seeing that Lu Dai was indifferent, Lu Ju knew that Lu Dai had not grasped the key point of his words.
So Lu Ju then exclaimed again:
"Mi Yang is in Chaisang!
Thousands of Han troops are now arrayed at the port, waiting for our troops to fall into a trap!"
When Lu Ju's second exclamation came out, in Tai Shixiang's eyes, he found that Lu Dai, who had been pressing his hands on the window edge, had lost his center of gravity, and his hands fell off the window edge weakly, and even his body became trembling.
stand up.
Mi Yang is in Chaisang?
If it hadn't been for his son to report this matter, Lu Dai would definitely have slapped him in the face.
There are only thousands of Tiance troops outside Chaisang, and the main force of Tiance army is not in Chaisang. Mi Yang's status is so valuable, why would he go to Chaisang for nothing?
Wouldn't it be better to go to Jingbei or Jingnan and greet Cao Xiu or Lu Xun?
But even if he didn't believe that Lu Zheng would deceive him, Lu Dai still turned around with difficulty because of the disbelief in his heart and looked at Lu Zheng with suspicious eyes.
My father is nearly 70 years old this year and I really can’t stand the scare.
Lu Ju saw that Lu Dai's face had turned pale, but his eyes were still full of suspicion. In desperation, Lu Ju could only hand over a document:
"This is the message Mi Yang just announced to everyone. Father will know it as soon as he sees it!"
As soon as Lu Ju finished speaking, Lu Dai couldn't wait to take the memo from Lu Ju's hand and read it.
"I am telling the scholars and people in Jiangdong:
It has been more than four hundred years since the Qin Dynasty lost its deer and the Han Dynasty established its foundation to govern the world.
For hundreds of years, I have heard that the Han Dynasty ruled the four directions, and the four directions proclaimed themselves ministers to serve the Han Dynasty. I have never heard that the four directions dared to bully the Han Dynasty and dominate the world.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When Zhongzu was there, Sun Quan was frightened and bowed several times, begging to be a vassal. However, Sun Quan surrendered and then rebelled, rebelled and surrendered again, without any shame.
, it is outrageous, and the crime is the same.
The behavior of animals is due to lack of ethics. Human ethics are different from those of animals. But Sun Quan rebelled against his master, forced his eldest son, humiliated his elder brother, and harmed his sister. Can this be said to be ethical?
Sun Quan's sexual abuse is comparable to that of Shang Zhou and comparable to that of beasts. How can it exist in the world? His crime is two.
The land east of the Yangtze River was originally a prosperous country, but Sun Quan was unruly and used countless swords and weapons, which devastated all living beings and left the east of the Yangtze River impoverished.
The parents do not protect their innocent children, the husband and wife abandon each other on the couch. The city is empty for thousands of households, and the smoke and fire are extinguished for thousands of miles. This is the third crime.
During the Huanling Rebellion, famous scholars moved south. Famous scholars are the most respected people in the world.
Sun Quan got a famous scholar to serve as his assistant, but he did not care about love, instead he was jealous of his advice and disobeyed divination. He was jealous of the virtuous and envied the ability, and the honest and upright people were all slaughtered. This made the gentlemen dumbfounded and the virtuous people silent.
Not realizing that the country is about to perish, not knowing that death is coming. This is the fourth sin.
Xuanni once said that no one can stand without mercy. Since Sun Quan inherited the throne, every time a city is attacked, the city will be slaughtered.
I lament that all the people of the Han Dynasty, whether they are loyal or good, whether they are old or young, thousands of families, will all die under Sun Quan's butcher's knife.
Who among the heroes in the world does not harbor hatred? There are five sins.
If there is one here, the sky will destroy it, let alone five!
Sun Quan's evil deeds have exhausted all the bamboos in the Southern Mountains, but the crimes written down are not exhausted; the waves in the East China Sea have been overcome, and the evil flow cannot be exhausted.
Heaven and earth are intolerable, humans and gods are angry!
Now I am going to march eastward according to Heaven's command, to punish the people and punish their crimes, to stop the army and drink mulberry trees, and to drink horses from the Yangtze River.
The misfortune of our country has been eliminated, and the revival is imminent. The weather is going smoothly, and people's will is harmonious. We are all fierce and brave men, thinking and sharing the anger of the injustice. The king's army has exhausted the rivers, and is facing Jianye in the east. The fine horses are galloping, and the feathers are arriving one after another.
.
I am willing to recruit the wise men from Jiangdong and the loyal and filial men from Dahe, to act with righteousness and take advantage of the opportunity. The righteous soldiers will take the lead, and the troops from Jinghu will follow. With one heart and one virtue, we will be able to swallow up the rebellious group of owl.
.
Since you are the king's master, how can you tolerate the cruelty of my innocent son?
I was rebellious before, but it was not my intention. I was afraid that everyone would obey and succumb to the thieves' power, with no way to escape. Now I am resigning to attack the crime and save Su Ku from drowning, so as to ensure that we gather safely and have no offense in the autumn.
If you are willing to accept the money sincerely and welcome surrender, or if you are willing to switch sides and lead the way, or if you are willing to follow the path as a pot of water, you should still be consistent, do not change your profession, use your military ropes as much as possible, and use Han Tiao.
Or he is stubborn and willing to be a traitor, snarling dogs and barking at Yao, chasing hunters and crying tigers, arguing that he should carry out heaven's punishment and burn all jade and stones, causing disaster to his family members and humiliating his father and ancestors!
The surging river understands my solemn words; the bright sun brightens the sky and understands my intention of unification.
Announce it throughout the country, and the envoys will know about it!"
The content of the memorandum was not short, and with the time to digest it, it took Lu Dai a while to look away from the memorandum in his hand.
But after reading the contents of the appeal, Lu Dai was so shocked that he was speechless.
Mi Yang's article lists Sun Quan's crimes, but this is not the most important.
The most important thing is that in this appeal, Mi Yang directly revealed his intention to come to Jiangdong - to kill Sun Quan and unify the southeast!
What a great courage!
Since the Battle of Chang'an, everyone in the world knew that this day would come, but no one would have expected that this day would come so quickly.
Think about the Han army outside Chaisang City, which numbered only 50,000 at most.
Fifty thousand people sounds like a lot, but is it easy to destroy a big country that occupies Jiangdong and Huainan with just 50,000 people?
If it weren't for Mi Yang who wrote this appeal, Lu Dai might have dismissed it.
But at this moment Lu Dai didn't dare.
Especially after hearing this sentence:
"According to reports from spies, General He Qi has died outside Chaisang City!"
Lu Ju said this with fear.
But when these words fell into Lu Dai's ears, they were like a heavy hammer, shaking Lu Dai's old body this way and that.
A generation of famous Jiangdong generals died so easily in Mi Yang's hands.
So is it really impossible for 50,000 soldiers to destroy Soochow?
"Or if you are stubborn and unwilling to realize it, you will be a traitor. You will bark at Yao with a snarling dog, and cry at the hunter. You should carry out the punishment of heaven and burn all your jade and stones. This will bring disaster to your family and bring disgrace to your father and ancestors!"
This sentence in the slogan came to Lu Dai's mind again, making Lu Dai's body sway even more.
That's Mi Yang.
Fifty thousand soldiers, he just thought it was too many!
