Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 845

Liu Dun frowned and stroked his beard, "Jiaozhou is not far from here, and it is not very close. Before that, General Dai passed through Guiyang, and the land passages were completely blocked. After Blast and Thunder occupied Guangzhou, the water passages must have been blocked. Lantian may not be Know the news about Guangzhou."

"But didn't the general remind him?" Lu Fan was very puzzled.

Liu Dun replied: "Maybe Lantian is still inquiring, but the general has so many troops here, even if he knows that Jiaozhou is in danger, he can't leave here. Otherwise, when Changsha is captured, he won't be a caged bird?"

Lu Fan nodded affirmatively, "It makes sense, Lan Tian is full of tricks, he is still increasing his troops frantically in such a predicament, trying to use his son's power to force me to retreat, but it's a pity that his camp is full of chickens and dogs. Can you be easily fooled?"

"The soldiers in Lantian are weak but the generals are brave. To defeat this enemy, you must have heavy troops. At this time, the morale of the soldiers in the city has not recovered, and the other army is desperate to fight. The general should send more troops to the king of Wu as soon as possible. Only when the reinforcements arrive, can they win by numbers." Liu Dun Offer advice.

Lu Fan had a solemn expression, and sighed: "Your Majesty has given me the most powerful soldiers. If we really want to increase troops, we can only draw them from Chaisang, but I am worried that Gan Ning will take the opportunity to attack."

"Lan Tian is good at attacking east and west, and Chaisang's soldiers really can't move, otherwise Gan Ning can easily cut off our army's food supply by defeating Chaisang, so I can only suggest to the king to transfer Ruxu's soldiers." Liu Dun said solemnly.

"Ruxu? There are not many soldiers and horses in the capital, and they are basically navy troops." Lu Fan hesitated after hearing this.

"There is no arrow to turn back when opening the bow. If it takes too long, Guan Yu may come to rescue him. This is a time of life and death, how can we look forward and backward?" Liu Dun said excitedly, and slapped his palm on the table.

Lu Fan didn't care about Liu Dun's impoliteness, he nodded in agreement with a serious face: "The public opinion is true."

At this moment, Lu Ju rushed in suddenly.

Lu Fan then said to Liu Dun, "Ziren is thoughtful, please draft the letter for me immediately, and after I finish handling the military affairs, I will copy it and send it to Jianye."

"Your servant will do it right away." Liu Dun also saw Lu Ju's expression, knowing that the Lu family and his son had something important to discuss, so he handed over his hands and went out with the task.

As soon as Liu Dun stepped over the threshold, Lu Fan walked quickly to Lu Ju's side and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

"It's a big deal." After hearing this, Lu took out a piece of rag from his pocket.

Lu Fan took the rag in doubt, only to see that it was written impressively: Lu Xun colluded with the enemy and treasoned the country, and his party members controlled the food and grass. It is difficult to make subsequent reductions. Be careful that there must be changes.

"What is this?" Lu Fan's eyes were full of shock.

"The soldiers found it in the grain bag, which should have been put in when it was sent out by Jianye." Lu Ju explained.

Lu Fan swallowed his saliva, the amount of information contained in the more than 20 small characters on the cloth piece was too large, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"How many pieces of cloth are there?" Lu Fan asked with a frown.

"Dozens of pieces have been found so far, so it should be a rumor from the elaboration, right? Father, who do you think did this?" Lu Ju asked curiously.

"It may not be true rumors." Lu Fan shook his head in a deep voice, and then asked, "Is Your Majesty building a business recently?"

Lu Ju replied: "My son asked these grain transport officials. The king and the prince went to Wu County a few days ago, and it seems to be to pay homage to Wu Guotai."

Lu Fan suddenly realized, and said to himself: "Wu Guotai's memorial day is in July, so it's no wonder that the king is not in Jianye."

"No wonder what?" Lu Ju was puzzled.

"In the future, you will be in charge of food and grass, and the matter of the cloth must be kept strictly confidential. As a father, you must warn the king." Lu Fan grabbed the cloth and signaled Lu Ju to leave, and he was ready to write a letter before returning to the case.

"Wei." Lu Ju clasped his fists and left.

Since Lu Fan saw the cloth, he couldn't pretend that this matter didn't exist, because Lu Xun's in-law Gu Yong was in charge of Jianye's military ration preparation and dispatch. To mutiny.

Sun Quan's prime minister, Sun Shao, who followed Kong Rong and Liu Yao, was a politically tainted figure. Because he was also classified as a Huaisi faction, he was impeached by Zhang Wen and Ji Yan when he took office, and the prime minister's office was also emptied by Jiangdong gentry.

In the past two years, Sun Shao was old and sick. Under Sun Quan's instruction, Gu Yong gradually took over the affairs of the prime minister, and the power of Gu and Lu became stronger day by day.

The more Lu Fan thought about it, the more terrifying he felt. He thought that even if the things on the paper were exaggerated, Sun Quan should use this to weaken Gu and Lu, at least to solve the worries of the front line.

The two letters were combined into one, together with the piece of cloth found in the grain bag, Lu Fan sent people to Jianye around the clock.

Sun Quan felt chills after reading Lu Fan's letter, combined with Sun Bu's previous report to Lu Xun, he felt more and more suspicious of Gu and Lu.

None of these Jiangdong gentry is reliable, but at this time Lu Fan is "desperately" for the country on the front line, and Sun Quan cannot and does not dare to launch a liquidation at this time.

After pondering for a while in the Wu Palace, Sun Quan urgently summoned Zhang Zhao and Hu Ke.

Seeing Sun Quan's sad face, Zhang Zhao and Hu Ke looked at each other not knowing what happened.

"I heard that Guangzhou has been conquered, but Your Majesty still looks worried. Could it be that General Ziheng's battle has been hindered?" Zhang Zhao was worried about Zhang Cheng's safety, so he was not as stable as Hu Ke.

Sun Quan frowned and replied in a deep voice: "It can't be said that it was an obstacle, but Lan Tian gave birth to a good son. Lan Ji was brave and invincible before the battle, and he even hurt several generals in Jiangdong before the battle, but Lan Tian will stop here , he gathered the [-] to [-] mob, which is far from the previous encirclement army, Ziheng wrote a letter to ask Gu Huo to increase his troops quickly, as long as there are enough troops to suppress, Lantian can be captured."

"But the soldiers in Jiangdong have been spared. Does the king want to send Jie Fanwei?" Seeing Hu Ke entering the palace at the same time, Zhang Zhao guessed that Sun Quan would bet on his entire family property.

Sun Quan shook his head hastily, "Whenever there is a big battle, Jianye is always in a state of flux. Xie Fanwei wants to stay behind to frighten Xiaoxiao, so I plan to go to Ruxuwu to draw troops."

"Ah? The governor only has [-] sailors left. If the king really draws troops from Ruxu, what will Wei do if he invades again?" Zhang Zhao looked bewildered.

Sun Quan said solemnly: "The so-called arrow has to be shot when the arrow is on the string. Gu can't care so much. Gu asked Qing to come to the palace to meet him, because he was going to entrust Jianye."

"Your Majesty won't take your last general with you?"

Although Hu Ke was disappointed on the surface, he was already happy in his heart. Sun Quan's current arrangements were completely evolving according to Lan Tian's script.

Sun Quan shook his head and said: "Zecheng left to stay at Jianye, Wei Ze (Hu Zong)'s right went to Ruxu with Gu, just now Zibu was worried that the Wei army would invade, so he took away Boyan's soldiers and horses, Gu will go with the governor Guard your beard."

"The last general has not made an inch of merit since he took office. How about keeping General Hu's right? Let me."

Before Hu Ke could finish his words of loyalty, Sun Quan roughly interrupted him by reaching out his hand, and he said solemnly: "The hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses on the front line are exhausted every day. Gu is going to send Huishu (Zhang Wen) to help, and Zecheng can stay in Jianye to take care of him."

"The last general met Huishu (Zhang Wen) yesterday, and he said that the king asked him to go to Wujun." Hu Ke scratched his head in confusion.

Sun Quan stroked his beard and replied with a smile: "The crown prince stays in Wujun for the summer. He originally planned to let Huishu accompany him to teach poetry and books, but now he must put state affairs first."

"The end will be saved." Hu Ke cupped his fists and left.

Zhang Zhao glanced at Hu Ke's back, turned around and asked Sun Quan, "What does Your Majesty want this veteran to do?"

"Every time we went out to fight, the money and food came from the local gentry. I was worried that they would not do their best. Zibu stayed in Jianye to monitor and collect evidence secretly. When the time comes, I will have evidence to deal with it when I come back." Sun Quan's eyes were dark.
