Chapter 786: Killing with a Borrowed Knife, Lu Family Hongmen
After indirectly expressing his attitude, Lu Dai's strength seemed to be drained out of thin air.
Weak, he fell directly to the ground.
Upon seeing this, Dong Yun wanted to step forward and help Lu Dai up, but when Dong Yun's hand touched Lu Dai's body, Lu Dai's body had a stress reaction, and he quickly struggled to throw away Dong Yun's hand.
In Lu Dai's eyes, Dong Yun is a very dangerous person.
Lu Dai's temporary discomfort did not bother Dong Yun.
In tonight's persuasion, he admitted that the method was not very glorious.
For Lu Dai, it is normal for him to feel angry.
From Dong Yun's point of view, since his goal has been achieved tonight, he is willing to bear some resentment in Lu Dai's heart.
The two were speechless, but it was Lu Dai who finally broke the silence first.
"Since you know the rift between me and Sun Quan, you should also know that Sun Quan used Zhou Li as his envoy, named Du Hu Shi as his supervisor.
As long as he is here, I cannot fully control the more than 20,000 Wu troops."
After saying these words, Lu Dai noticed that Dong Yun had some dangerous eyes, and he quickly added:
"Even if Zhou Li is not here, many of the more than 20,000 Wu troops are not my direct descendants.
If they were asked to attack the Han army, they would probably obey the order.
But if we let them surrender to Da Sima like this, it may cause them to mutiny."
Lu Dai expressed his opinion to Dong Yun.
After listening to what Lu Dai said, Dong Yun nodded after thinking for a while.
Dong Yun could tell that Lu Dai was telling the truth.
The reason why Lu Dai said this was to remind Dong Yun not to make some whimsical requests.
Mi Yang's reputation was great, but many of the more than 20,000 Wu troops had their families in Jiangdong.
It is almost impossible for them to easily bow their heads and obey Mi Yang just because of one of his orders.
Fortunately, Mi Yang had considered this before Dong Yun came.
Dong Yun looked at Lu Dai and said slowly:
"General, please rest assured, Da Sima is not an unreasonable person.
What Da Sima wants is actually very simple.
According to intelligence, Lu Fan and his army of more than 10,000 people will arrive outside Chaisang City soon.
After Lu Fan arrives with his army, he will definitely send someone to contact the general as soon as possible.
Da Sima didn't really care what Lu Fan wanted to do.
What Grand Sima cares about is that no matter what Lu Fan wants to do next after his arrival, the general must invite Lu Fan to accompany him.
This shouldn't be difficult for the general."
Not difficult?
Not only is it not difficult!
After learning about Mi Yang's intentions, Lu Dai's first reaction was surprise.
Mi Yang tried every means to instigate him, but is it really that simple?
But soon, Lu Dai, who had experienced many things in the world, reacted in an instant.
A look of fear appeared on Lu Dai's face.
Lu Dai stretched out his fingers, trembling in disbelief and said:
"Could it be that Da Sima wants to..."
Lu Dai did not say the second half of the sentence.
Because for him, Mi Yang's true purpose is too frightening.
People have always said that Han Lu is the best at killing people's hearts when using troops.
Today’s observation is no exaggeration!
Seeing that Lu Dai had guessed some clues, Dong Yun showed a smile on his face.
Before he came, Mi Yang also smiled at him like this.
expect.
Lu Dai saw that Dong Yun was still laughing at this moment, and the fear in his heart suddenly increased a bit.
In Lu Dai's eyes, at this moment, he regarded Dong Yun in front of him as Mi Yang, who was looking at Jiangdong outside Chaisang.
"Does he actually take pleasure in this?"
Lu Dai did not dare to say this.
Faced with Lu Dai's speculation, Dong Yun did not confirm it.
Next Dong Yun just bowed to Lu Dai and said:
"No matter what Da Sima wants to do, ministers should do their best to make it happen.
This is loyalty.
Yun is very happy to be able to share the same tent with the general after tonight.
I hope the general will not disappoint Da Sima."
Dong Yun asked Lu Dai for an answer again.
Seeing Dong Yun's sharpness hidden under his humility, Lu Dai suddenly woke up.
Can he ask what Mi Yang wants to do?
When things got to this point, he had lost the power to choose.
In this case, there is nothing to worry about.
"Dai, Dai knows!"
...
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. On the night of the second day, Mi Yang waited in the big tent outside Chaisang City to return to Dong Yun.
Mi Yang was overjoyed to see Dong Yun return safely.
Mi Yang stood up to meet Dong Yun, held Dong Yun's hand and said:
"If Xiuzhao doesn't come back tonight, Gu Ke will march westward with his troops and ask Lu Dai for help in person."
Mi Yang's words that seemed like a joke revealed a serious and caring tone.
Mi Yang's tone made Dong Yun feel very moved.
If the winner is like this, there will be no regrets in this life.
However, Dong Yun was moved in his heart and kept in mind the etiquette of superiors and subordinates, but he still gently broke away from Mi Yang. He took a few steps back and bowed to Mi Yang:
"My lord, I'm glad you have fulfilled your mission."
Dong Yun's words made Mi Yang smile a little more.
"good!
He sent an envoy out of righteousness and used his sharp tongue to persuade the enemy general to surrender.
Xiu Zhao's style is comparable to that of Su and Zhang in ancient times."
Mi Yang happily pulled Dong Yun to sit down.
After Dong Yun sat down, Dong Yun told in detail what happened between him and Lu Dai.
After finishing speaking, Dong Yun reminded Mi Yang emphatically:
"Lu Dai is not a simple person.
If it weren't for the information provided by Zhou Li, Yun wouldn't have been able to surrender to him easily."
There was admiration and fear for Lu Dai in Dong Yun's tone.
Knowing the meaning after hearing the sound, Mi Yang changed to a comfortable sitting position, then looked at Dong Yun and asked:
"Xiu Zhao thinks that Lu Dai will not be obedient in the future?"
Seeing Mi Yang express his worries, Dong Yun nodded.
Dong Yun's admission did not make Mi Yang distressed, but made Mi Yang laugh.
"When it comes to the splendor of words, I am not as good as you, but when it comes to insight into people's hearts, I am better than you."
"Given Lu Dai's current status, he must be dissatisfied when you, a young man, give in with your words.
But don't forget that he is different from you. In his late seventies, he will never do anything unwise because of resentment in his heart.
Otherwise you won't be able to come back safely.
He is neither angry nor angry, but given his current situation, his way of survival has been sealed.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If he wants to survive, he can only obey the orphan.
He is a wise man and he will not violate this."
Mi Yang's words made Dong Yun's worries disappear instantly.
"Da Sima Yingming."
"But Chen still doesn't understand something."
Seeing that Dong Yun still had questions, Mi Yang nodded and said:
"But it doesn't hurt to ask."
"I don't understand that Grand Sima could directly attack Lu Fan while he was still on a weak footing.
Why should Lu Fan contact Lu Dai and increase the risk?"
Hearing that Dong Yun was wondering about this, Mi Yang looked at him and asked:
"What do you think Xiu Zhao relies on to defend the city?"
"It's the human heart!"
Defending the city means guarding the hearts of the people.
Since the War of Public Security, these words spoken by Mi Yang himself have long become a popular saying, and Dong Yun certainly knows it.
Dong Yun's answer made Mi Yang nodded.
He continued:
"The way to use military force lies in harmony. If there is harmony, you will fight on your own without persuading.
In the same way, if the generals and officials are guessing each other, the soldiers are not convinced, the good people are not used, the group slanders and slanders each other, even if there is soup, the wisdom of martial arts cannot defeat the ordinary people, how about Quan Cong?"
"Gu's goals are Chai Sang, Lu Dai, and Lu Fan. In Gu's eyes, they are just two tools.
Two tools that can help Gu break Chaisang's heart!
Quan Cong thought that even without reinforcements, relying on the strength of Chaisang City, he could stop Gu.
He is too naive.
Doesn't he know that Gu's battle to become famous is the battle to defend the city?
Anyone who is good at defending must be good at attacking.
Look, the day Lu Fan arrives, Chaisang City will be destroyed!"
Mi Yang spoke firmly, with a determined look on her face.
At this moment, Mi Yang thought of the letter he wrote to Quan Cong a few days ago.
To this day, Quan Cong has not replied to his letter.
How rude!
Mi Yang hates rude people the most.
...
At the end of December in the sixth year of Emperor Zhangwu of the Han Dynasty.
Just as the new year was about to arrive, General Wu and Nanchang Hou Lufan finally led his army to the outside of Chaisang City.
This time, Lu Fan brought more than 10,000 reinforcements.
Although it may not sound like a large number of people, most of the more than 10,000 reinforcements are part of Lu Fan. They have experienced many battles and are rare elites among the Soochow army.
With more than 10,000 elites, Lu Fan had great confidence in this support operation.
But on the way Lu Fan came, he learned two new pieces of news that were like a bolt from the blue.
One was when Mi Yang came to Chaisang City in person, and the other was when He Qi's entire army was wiped out.
When these two pieces of news reached Lu Fan's ears, Lu Fan's mentality almost collapsed.
The situation in Chaisang was clearly improving before the troops were sent out. Why did the situation in Chaisang deteriorate to such an extent as soon as he led his troops outside Chaisang City?
Lu Fan felt the deep malice coming from Mi Yang.
Fortunately, as a founder of the Sun family, Lu Fan's loyalty to Wu was unparalleled.
Otherwise, if it were an ordinary person, he might have led his army to retreat long ago.
For Lu Fan, it was impossible to withdraw his troops. All he could do was find a way to clean up the corrupt situation in Chaisang.
Fortunately, after receiving two bad news, Lu Fan also received one good news - that is, Lu Dai's reinforcements were nearby.
After learning about this, Lu Fan quickly sent someone to contact Lu Dai.
Before Lu Fan sent troops, he received a secret letter from Sun Quan.
In the secret letter, Sun Quan told Lu Fan his worries about Lu Dai, hoping that Lu Fan could take more precautions after arriving at Chaisang with his army.
At Sun Quan's reminder, Lu Fan asked Lu Dai to come to his army in person to meet him.
Soon Lu Dai received a letter from Lu Fan.
Facing Lu Fan's request, Lu Zhi was worried.
After learning that his father planned to turn to Mi Yang completely, Lu Zhi's mentality changed. He was worried that Lu Fan's invitation would be a Hongmen banquet.
But Lu Dai had no such worries.
"The war is imminent, Zi Heng dare not."
"On the other hand, if I don't go, it will make Zi Heng suspicious, which will ruin Sima's affairs."
If there were no foreign enemies, Lu Fan might have ulterior motives.
But Mi Yang was just outside Chaisang City. Unless Lu Fan was Mi Yang's internal agent, he would never dare to harm himself at this time.
With this idea, Lu Dai quickly came to Lu Fan's army with his personal guards.
After hearing the news of Lu Dai's arrival, a confidant who knew Sun Quan's secret order suggested to Lu Fan:
"The general can use the power of holiday to capture Lu Dai from the army and send him to Jianye to be interrogated by His Majesty."
The suggestion from his confidant made Lu Fan hesitate.
