Others fear Liu Dun like a god, but Liu Dun knows his own affairs. His divination skills are not miraculous, but he is familiar with astronomy, geography, and good at understanding people's hearts, so he is always one step ahead of others and detects disasters.Even if the judgment is wrong, it can be prevaricated by "the impermanence of the law of heaven", anyway, it all depends on one's mouth.

Liu Jingqing's army in Jingchu and one state attacked by land and water at the same time, and attacked Yuzhang. .

"..." Sun Fu's expression became very ugly when he heard the ominous hexagram.

He lost his parents since he was a child, but he was brought up by his elder brother Sun Ben. The two brothers have a deep relationship. Now his elder brother Sun Ben is oppressed by the Chu thieves and is in danger.

The reason why Liu Dun was asked to do the divination was to seek good luck for the dispatch of troops, but it was really unlucky to predict bad luck.

Sun Fuqiang said with a smile: "King Wu of Zhou defeated Zhou, and it was said to be a great evil; Jin Wengong attacked Chu, and he was also said to be evil. However, both of them can defeat the enemy in the end. From this, it can be seen that divination is reliable but not completely reliable."

Knowing Sun Fu's intentions, Liu Dun followed his words and said, "Confucius said, 'What does the sky say? The four seasons move, and all things come into being.' , but God’s will is lofty, how can we know it all? Good luck can be bad, bad luck can also be good, it all depends on the heart.”

Sun Fu got up and said to Liu Dun: "My brother is in trouble, I have to save him. I plan to send [-] troops to the north to attack Yichun. I also ask the military commander not to tell the hexagrams to the soldiers, so as not to shake the morale of the army."

Sun Fu is Liu Dun's parents, so naturally he will not dismantle him, "Mingfu just rest assured, I know what to do..."

The next day, Sun Fu immediately sent [-] elite soldiers to the north. Of course, before dispatching the troops, he deliberately deceived the soldiers, claiming that the military division's divination would be auspicious.

Sun Fucai sent off the trilogy, and received an urgent report from the south the next day: Jingzhou army attacked along the Yuzhang River, with hundreds of ships and tens of thousands of soldiers, and Nanye and Ganxian counties descended in anticipation...

Sun Fu and Liu Dun were all dumbfounded for a while, why did another Jingzhou army appear in the south?Where did Liu Jing get so many soldiers? !

The southern part of Luling is located in a remote area, with few Han people and a large number of mountains and mountains. They disobey the government and cause riots. It has always been a weak area for rule.

Sun Fu basically let the southern area of ​​Luling go his own way, as long as there was no rebellion, there were only one or two thousand troops in the area, and facing ten times as many enemies, how could they resist?It can be foreseen that it is only a matter of time before all the southern Luling falls.

When Liu Dun thought that there were only two thousand soldiers left in Luling, his scalp tingled.

Back then, he fled his hometown plain because of the war. He traveled to many places and suffered a lot. He finally settled down in Luling. He didn't want to be displaced again.

Liu Dun was very anxious, and hurriedly said to Sun Fu: "Mingfu, tens of thousands of Chu troops are attacking from the south, and Luling has too few soldiers to defend itself. Mingfu quickly recalled the soldiers and horses who went north."

"This..." Sun Fu hesitated.

"Why is there any hesitation in the Ming government?" Liu Dun couldn't help stomping his feet and said, "Although Sun Yuzhang is at a disadvantage in fighting against the Chu army, he still has more than ten thousand soldiers under his command, and Nanchang is solid, so it is absolutely impossible for the Chu army to capture Nanchang in a hurry. , and when Sun Chaolu's reinforcements arrive, the siege of Nanchang will be lifted."

Liu Dun analyzed again: "On the contrary, the current situation in Luling is extremely dangerous. If the Ming government does not recall the army that went north, and when the Chu army sweeps the south and comes along the Gan River, Luling will definitely be lost!"

After hearing this, Sun Fu's complexion couldn't stop changing. After a long time, he looked up to the sky and sighed, "It's because I don't help brother, I really can't take care of myself..." Then he sent people to chase back the army going north overnight.

…………

Nanchang, which means "prosperity in southern Xinjiang", is said to have been built by Guan Ying, a famous general in the early Han Dynasty, so Nanchang is also known as "Guancheng".

The city wall of Nanchang is tall and strong, with a circumference of more than ten miles, and there are six gates of South Gate, East Gate, North Gate, Gao Gate, Chang Gate and Songyang Gate.It faces the Ganshui River in the west, the Great Lake in the east, the Great Lake is ten miles wide, and turns south into Nantang. Therefore, Nanchang is surrounded by water on three sides, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Because Sun Ben had secretly written to his younger brother Sun Fu, asking him to send troops to attack Yichun from behind, with the idea of ​​luring the enemy deep in his heart, he did not stop him along the way, but let Zhuge Liang's army reach the city of Nanchang unimpeded.

At this time, soldiers from all directions had rushed to Nanchang one after another. Sun Benzi had nearly [-] people guarding Nanchang, while Han Dang and Jiang Qin led [-] troops.

Sun Ben and Yuzhang Wenwu stood on the Songyang Gate Tower in the south, looking out of the city, they saw a brightly armored flag, many chariots and horses, and a mighty army coming along the east bank of the Ganshui River. .

Sun Ben observed for a long time, turned his eyes away, and sighed to the left and right: "A partial army in Jingchu still has such strength. It is really hard to imagine how elite the army led by Liu Jing is. Taishi Ziyi fought with thousands of soldiers. Liu Jing has tens of thousands of elites, and it is not wrong to lose to him."

"Mr. Sun, why do you need to build up other people's ambitions? I don't think there is anything unusual about the Chu thieves. Why don't the Ming government take advantage of the new arrival of the Chu thieves and their unsteady foothold, and recruit daredevils to open the door to counterattack them, so as to defeat them?" The person was Pan Zhang, the magistrate of Jianchang County, "Zhang is willing to take the lead and dare to die, and surprise the bandit army!"

Pan Zhang, a native of Dongjun, Yanzhou, was born in a poor family, had a promiscuous nature, was addicted to alcohol, and possessed extraordinary courage. When Sun Quan was just a fledgling at the age of 15, he followed him around. He could be described as Sun Quan's "hidden minister".Therefore, after Sun Quan succeeded Jiangdong, Pan Zhang immediately followed him to prosperity, successively served as Sima of Biebu, assassin of Wushi, and then transferred to guard the counties.

"I've always heard that Colonel Pan is promiscuous and talkative, but seeing him today, he really deserves his reputation." Xu Ping, a man with five sense organs, sarcastically said.

Pan Zhang was a rough man, relying on Sun Quan's confidant, he often went his own way and didn't abide by the law, which made Xu Ping very uncomfortable. He accused him in front of Sun Ben several times, and the two became enmity.

Pan Zhang was furious when he heard the words, and he pressed the handle of the knife with his hand, his eyes widened.Xu Ping ignored him. He was from the Xu family in Yuzhang. How could he be afraid of Pan Zhang, a soldier, and said to Sun Ben: "The Chu army outside the city is well-organized and disciplined. , there is defeat without victory, but it will seriously damage the morale of our army..."

Pan Zhang couldn't take it any longer, so he interrupted Xu Ping directly, and asked, "I fear the enemy so much, do you want to imitate Xu Zong?!"

Seeing that Pan Zhang made fun of Pan Zhang's elder brother Xu Zong who had surrendered to Liu Jing, Xu Ping was furious and was about to fight back, but Sun Ben hurriedly stopped him.

Sun Ben appeased the two of them respectively, and then took the other with one hand, and said solemnly: "Now that the Chu bandits are approaching the city, Nanchang is in danger of being overthrown. I hope that you can put aside your personal grievances for the time being, and work together to reject the enemy."

"Promise." Not only Pan Zhang and Xu Ping, but also civil and military personnel on both sides responded in unison.

Pan Zhang agreed, but there was still some dissatisfaction on his face. With Xu Ping's interference, the proposal to attack naturally fell through.

"Stand up Confucianism! I will kill him sooner or later!" Pan Zhang said bitterly in his heart.

Zhuge Liang took the Suyu and went straight to the Songyang Gate. Looking at Nanchang, where he had lived for several months in his youth, he was filled with emotion.

Back then when Zhuge Liang fled Nanchang with his uncle Zhuge Xuan, he had only a few servants, chariots, and horses and oxen. Today when he returned to Nanchang, he had tens of thousands of people, thousands of boats, chariots, and horses.

"It's a pity that Nanchang is not his hometown at all..." Zhuge Liang sighed slightly in his heart. Langya is his hometown that he dreams of, and he doesn't know when he can really return to his hometown in glory.

Even though Zhuge Liang firmly believed that Liu Jing was the one who ruled the world, he didn't think he could fight back to Xuzhou Langya in a short time.

Zhuge Liang murmured to himself: "First take Yuzhang and Luling, then take Jiangdong, and then plan Xu and Yu, step by step..."

Zhuge Liang used himself as a bait to ambush the elite soldiers. He stayed for a long time under the city of Nanchang, waiting left and right, but he never saw the opponent coming to attack.

Zhuge Liang smiled, turned around and turned back, digging a trench to build a camp a few miles south of Nanchang, near the water source.
