Pan Zhang led more than a thousand Wu soldiers to leave Jiujiang and rush towards Nanchang County, Yuzhang County.
After walking for a day, Pan Zhang suddenly stopped.
He rode up to the front of more than a thousand soldiers, and his expression suddenly became serious. This change made the soldiers who followed Pan Zhang retreat to Nanchang County nervous. They didn't understand what Pan Zhang was going to do.
"Brothers, are you still soldiers of the Wu Kingdom?"
Pan Zhang's first words confused the thousands of soldiers who followed him.
They are soldiers of the Wu Kingdom, they must be.
Pan Zhang did not give the soldiers a chance to respond, and said loudly: "You have been a prisoner of the Shu army, and I have been a prisoner of the Shu army. Moreover, Wang Can asked me to submit, and I also submitted to Wang Can. Maybe, you said
I have no backbone and betrayed the King of Wu, but I tell you, I don’t have any, and I am still a general of Wu.”
After hearing this, the soldiers were in an uproar.
Pan Zhang actually surrendered to Wang Can, but why did he take them away? Why was he still a general of Wu?
All the soldiers were discussing constantly.
Pan Zhang raised his hand, pressed it down, and shouted: "Brothers, please listen to me. King Wu has been killed, General Huang and General Zu have been killed, Tai Shici has rebelled, and the country of Wu has reached a critical moment of life and death. Wang
Chan asked me to surrender, and I pretended to agree. Many people would think that I am a repeating villain, but I am willing to do so."
"For the sake of the Kingdom of Wu, what's the point of suffering a little?"
"As long as I can avenge the king of Wu, as long as I can save the country of Wu, I can endure any humiliation. If my life can be exchanged for the life of the king of Wu, I am willing to die; if my life can save the country of Wu, I will also
We are willing to die. But everything has already happened and it is irreversible. We can only accept it."
"What we have to do now is to avenge King Wu and fight tooth and nail for the survival of the Kingdom of Wu."
Pan Zhang spoke so righteously that the soldiers in the army looked solemn.
After hearing this, many soldiers cheered up and were moved by Pan Zhang's words. They did not expect Pan Zhang to be so noble. However, some soldiers were still unmoved, and even had a look of disdain in their eyes, thinking that it was impossible to win.
The capabilities of the Shu army had already cast a shadow in the hearts of the Wu soldiers.
It is almost impossible to defeat the Shu army.
Pan Zhang glanced at everyone and continued: "Perhaps you will say that we only have a thousand people, how can we be the opponent of the Shu army? I tell you, we have a chance, because we are passionate and loyal.
.Perhaps, some people say that we are like moths chasing a flame and cannot stop the Shu army. I also have to tell you that after I pretended to surrender to Wang Can, I offered to capture Nanchang County for him and help him act as an internal agent to open up Nanchang County.
City gate."
"This is your chance to kill Wang Can."
"Once Wang Can leads his troops into the Wengcheng of Nanchang City, we can use crossbowmen to ambush. When thousands of arrows are fired, even if Wang Can has three heads and six arms, he will definitely die. Once Wang Can is killed, hundreds of thousands of Shu troops will not attack
Self-destruction." Pan Zhang raised the big gun in his hand and shouted loudly, extremely excited.
"Kill Wang Can, kill Wang Can!!!"
After hearing Pan Zhang's plan, the soldiers opened their eyes wide and showed excitement on their faces.
This strategy is definitely feasible.
The soldiers shouted loudly, with a strange color on their faces, very excited. They were all moved by Pan Zhang's words, and the fear in their hearts also dissipated.
Pan Zhang looked at the excited soldiers and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
His impromptu decision to give a speech had a purpose.
Firstly, because the soldiers looked sluggish and their courage was broken by the Shu army; secondly, because he was not sure whether there was anyone arranged by Wang Can in the army, and he wanted to take this opportunity to arouse the Wu army soldiers' sense of belonging as citizens of the state of Wu, so that they could
On the side of Wu Jun; thirdly, Pan Zhang could also take this opportunity to test and let Wang Can's people take action to eliminate internal troubles.
Based on these three reasons, Pan Zhang made a temporary speech.
After doing all this, Pan Zhang led his troops and continued on their way.
…
Lu Su led more than 100,000 Wu troops to retreat, also heading towards Yuzhang County. He wanted to replenish food and grass in Nanchang County, and at the same time let the army rest for a while before returning to Wu County. At the same time, he also asked the prefect of Yuzhang County to strengthen defense.
On the way, news came out that Sun Jian, Huang Gai, and Zu Mao had been killed, and the atmosphere in the army was sad.
Lu Su, Zhang Hong, Lu Fan and others stabilized the situation and led the troops to retreat in an orderly manner.
It was obviously impossible to fight again at this time, and after Lu Su received the news that Sun Jian, Huang Gai and Zu Mao had been killed, his expression was calm and not too surprised. He seemed to have known the result.
The army was on its way, and the sound of horse hoofbeats was heard.
A guard tower ran to Lu Su and said anxiously: "Sir, it's not good, the Shu army has sent ten thousand cavalry, and they are rushing towards our army. They are already ten miles away and will catch up soon.
"
Lu Su was shocked when he heard this and felt a headache.
Zhang Hong also panicked and said in a deep voice: "Zijing, the cavalry is charging and the infantry can't stop it. What should we do?"
Lu Su said in a deep voice: "To block the cavalry, we can deploy shield soldiers and spear soldiers, and we must also take advantage of the geographical location. If we go, the army will immediately change its route. Instead of taking the main road, we will immediately take the small road to advance. Even if Shu
When the army's cavalry pursues us, we can easily block it and prevent the Shu army's cavalry from taking advantage of their ability to charge on the ground."
Immediately, Lu Su led the Wu soldiers to change their route.
As a result, the role of the Shu army's cavalry was immediately limited, causing the cavalry to lose the effect of large-scale attacks.
Zhang Xiu and Pang De pursued the hunt with great interest, but they felt that they had encountered a hedgehog and could not take action. The two led the cavalry to follow Lu Su's army, hoping to severely damage the Wu army. Lu Su responded calmly, and the soldiers came to block the water and cover the ground.
He took away more than 100,000 Wu troops safely without giving Zhang Xiu and Pang De a chance.
Three days later, Zhang Xiu and Pang De returned without success and chose to retreat.
Lu Su was relieved when he got the news.
After three days, I finally got over it.
Lu Su continued on his way with his soldiers, but on the way, another sentry hurriedly ran over and reported: "Sir, we found traces of General Pan Zhang. He led a thousand Wu army soldiers and also rushed towards Nanchang County.
.”
Lu Su raised his brows and was shocked. He looked at Lu Fan and Zhu Zhi and said in a deep voice: "Two generals, Pan Zhang was captured by Wei Yan at the beginning and imprisoned in the Shu army camp. Now Pan Zhang leads
One thousand soldiers are rushing towards Nanchang, there may be something fishy in it. You lead 10,000 soldiers and immediately surround Pan Zhang's soldiers, and I will come to inquire about the situation."
"promise!"
Zhu Zhi and Lu Fan both had higher qualifications than Lu Su, but they were sincerely convinced of Lu Su.
When the two men led 10,000 soldiers to rush towards Pan Zhang, Pan Zhang was overjoyed. He saw the Wu soldiers quietly surrounding him with a wry smile on his face, and he guessed the reason.
Pan Zhang put down his weapons and went to see Lu Su with Lu Fan and Zhu Zhi.
After the meeting, Pan Zhang told everything.
Lu Su looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "General Pan, you made the right move by pretending to surrender. However, you immediately proposed to capture Wuchang County for Wang Can. This idea must have been seen through, especially when Jia Xu took the initiative to help
What you said is that you intend to use his plan to take over Wuchang County. You are already in Jia Xu's plan, but you don't know it yet."
"What, Jia Xu already knows?"
Pan Zhang looked disbelieving, shook his head and said: "This is an idea I came up with at the last minute, how could Jia Xu know?"
Lu Su sneered and said: "You think you are very smart, but Jia Xu, Guo Jia and Xu Shu are a hundred times smarter than you. They are extremely smart. Your little tricks cannot be hidden from Jia Xu and others. However, if they want to use their tricks, we can too.
It is a good opportunity to mediate and change the strategy to ambush Wang Can."
Pan Zhang smiled and asked: "Master Lu, what do you think we should do?"
An intriguing smile appeared on Lu Su's face and he said: "Although I have a general idea about this matter, I have not thought it through clearly. I will tell you what to do after I think it through clearly."
Pan Zhang nodded in agreement, and then hurried on with Lu Su.
