In early winter and October, things are yellow when they should be and cool when they should be.
The war between Han and Wu in Jiaozhi County came to an end as time went by.
However, it is said that Ma Zhong besieged Lu Dai's tribe in Liling County in the past, with the intention of encircling the points and recruiting reinforcements to contain the Jiangdong troops for the northern front war. It was not that the city could not be breached.
When Huo Yi's troops who were staying in the water village at the port received news that the Wu army had only sent warships in twos and threes to inquire about the news and had no intention of sending troops to fight, Ma Zhong had the idea of attacking the enemy.
Since what you are thinking in your heart cannot work, then end the war as soon as possible and let the county Jing'an and the soldiers who have been tired for a long time rest and recuperate.
Yes, there is no suspense in overcoming difficulties.
During the nearly two months of being trapped in the city, thanks to the Han army's persuasion to surrender by the local heroes and the summons of the captured soldiers, soldiers from Jiaozhou gradually came out of the city and surrendered over the wall.
Lu Dai could not prevent this.
Because the soldiers all looked forward to the state of Wu and despaired of the war because the reinforcements had not arrived for a long time.
What makes the city even more turbulent is that the food supply is about to run out.
Linling was just a county in Jiaozhi, not a county seat for hoarding grain and fodder. Suddenly more than 5,000 soldiers were stationed there for four months, and a grain shortage was inevitable.
Lu Dai did not let his soldiers raid the city's rations for the common people.
Because he felt it was of no use.
The turning point of the war lies in whether Jiangdong sends troops to rescue him.
But now it is winter. If Jiangdong had sent troops, they would have arrived long ago.
In this way, plundering Li Shu's rations to supply the soldiers only lasted for more than a month, and did not change the outcome of the city falling and the entire army being destroyed.
Moreover, raiding the common people's food rations would inevitably arouse public outrage.
Maybe the Li people in the city would get together and rebel, and the Han army outside the city would seize the opportunity to attack, causing the city to fall earlier.
Therefore, after the Han army sent troops to surrender to no avail, and three days after they began to attack the fortress, Lu Dai, who had completely exhausted the food and fodder, gathered his soldiers and declared, "I have received Wu Hu's kindness and I have to repay it with death. You all will decide on your own."
After saying this, he dismissed the personal guards and stayed alone in the department room with swords to defeat the loyal.
His death made Linling County no longer willing to resist.
After the Han army entered the city, Ma Zhong heard about this and was very impressed.
The custom in the Han Dynasty was particularly respectful of the elderly.
There are not many people at Lu Dai's age who still remain in the army in the past and present, and he also abides by the sincerity of his ministers.
Although each one has his own master, we should do our best to let them be wrapped in horse leather and buried in corpses.
Ma Zhongnai asked Huo Yi to mobilize two or three ships and asked some soldiers to collect Lu Dai's body and send it to Nanhai County.
After Wu Dang, who was in Longbian County, learned about this, he was a little bit dissatisfied.
Yuan Long, who had joined forces with him in the past, was attacked and killed by Lu Dai's troops.
However, he did not expressly refute anything.
Because he also knew that Ma Zhong's move was not just about respecting his elders.
During Jiangdong's occupation of Jiaozhou for more than 20 years, almost all the rebellions were quelled by Lu Dai. Now that he died in battle, his body has been returned to Nanhai County, which will inevitably make some dormant people think differently.
In this way, it will be beneficial to the Han Dynasty to include the entire Jiaozhou into its territory in the future.
Alas~
The right should be eliminated when a person dies.
After the war ended, Wu Dang comforted himself in this way, but Sun Quan, who was far away in Wuchang, could not comfort himself.
In fact, Jiangdong had time to send naval troops to rescue Jiaozhi.
The Jiangdong Navy, known for its elite, had rich experience in navigation. From the time Liu Zuan reported that Lu Dai was attacked from a flank to the fall of Linling County, it was enough for the Navy to rush to Jiaozhi County.
But at that time, everyone in Jiangdong thought it was hopeless.
First of all, the gain outweighs the loss.
The Han army was trying to encircle the area for reinforcements, and all the important officials in Jiangdong knew it, and sending troops to rescue them was just playing into the Han army's ambitions.
Moreover, the naval force could arrive as scheduled, but it did not mean that Lu Dai could be brought out.
Indeed, the elite navy in the east of the Yangtze River was invincible to both Wei and Han in the rivers and seas.
However, could they compete with the Han army on the shore?
Maybe they sent troops to rescue him, but not only were they unable to rescue Lu Dai, he himself would never return!
Another reason is the lack of troops in Jiangdong.
The disastrous defeat of Shouchun and the influence of Liao Shi's rebellion made Jiangdong's former military strength stronger than that of Bashu no longer possible. When the Han army left Hanzhong County and Yong'an Kuimen respectively in autumn and August, Jiangdong faced a shortage of military strength.
In this battle, the Han army used more than 70,000 troops!
Jiangdong deducted the necessary deployment of garrison in various places, and the force squeezed out was only roughly equal to that of the Han army.
In this way, the navy must stay in the river basin to connect and coordinate troops and horses at various garrison points in Xiling Gorge, Jiangling City, Wuchang and Xiangyang, and to quickly mobilize troops and transport supplies between each other.
Therefore, all the important ministers in Jiangdong secretly advised Sun Quan. At this time, he should choose the lesser of two evils.
Everything is focused on the overall situation.
After all, the main force of the Han army came out of Jingzhou.
The safety of Jingxiang is more important than the loss of the three western counties of Jiaozhou and the destruction of Ludai tribe.
Sun Quan could not refute.
From his point of view, the defeat of Shouchun had already caused heavy losses to the wealthy family members of the Wu family. If Jingzhou's interests could no longer be defended,
I'm afraid that the Sun family's foundation will face an unbearable burden!
And after he learned the news that Lu Dai had defeated Zhongzhong with his sword, he could not comfort himself. Not only was he grieving for the loss of a general in Qiancheng who was both a heartthrob and a pawn, but also because Zhuge Ke had written a letter asking for orders to go to Jiaozhi for rescue.
Zhuge Ke, who had previously won the Shouchun War, was increasingly valued by Sun Quan.
Even if the prince Sun Deng died of illness, he would still be trained as an important minister who would help the Sun family's foundation in the future.
However, because Zhuge Jin died of illness last year, Sun Quan did not transfer him to Jingnan to participate in the war, but ordered him to continue to garrison in Jianye, so that Quan Cong could lead troops to Jingnan to fight.
It is precisely for this reason that after Zhuge Ke learned about the war in Jiaozhou, he wrote a letter to Sun Quan asking for orders, claiming that he could lead more than ten thousand Shanyue elites under his command to sail from Jianye to Jiaozhi.
However, Sun Quan did not need to discuss this matter with others, so he rejected him directly.
There is no way, Zhuge Ke's ministry cannot be transferred from Jianye!
They were not worried that after his transfer, Wei might send troops from the Huainan front to attack, but they were worried that new rebellions would break out in Wuyue counties.
Of course!
There are not many troops available in Jiangdong now. The defeat in foreign wars has triggered frequent rebellions in counties and counties, so Sun Quan has to use many troops on garrison and maintaining internal security.
Under such circumstances, Lu Dai's death was inevitable.
In anger, Sun Quan personally wrote a letter and sent it to Nanyang, asking the Wei army to send it to Luoyang and Cao Rui.
The letter contains only a few words.
say:
"Today Bashu has sent more than 70,000 troops, which is half of the country! Our country is fighting with them, and the three counties of Jiaozhou have fallen. The state pastor Lu Dinggong died in the battle, and countless soldiers were lost! If Shangyong's 5,000 soldiers can't be saved, your country will be saved.
