Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

The cold moon hangs at the moment of the night, throwing its brilliance.The cold moonlight shines on the Yangtze River, and there are thousands of sparkling spots of light dancing in the flowing river water.

Several flat boats pierced the surface of the river, making circles of ripples, and the sound of the oars swinging continued to resound in the night.

In the cabin, under the illumination of oil lamps, Lu Xun marked important military locations that could be stationed on the map of the Yangtze River waterway.

After Han and Wu started negotiations, on the one hand, Lu Xun observed the situation on the battlefield to see if there was a chance to turn the tables against the wind. On the other hand, he searched for important military locations that could resist the attack of the Shu Han based on the newly demarcated border between the two countries.

Looking at the situation for more than half a month, after the victory, Liu Chan did not expose his flaws at all. Instead, he joined forces with Deng Zhi and Ma Zhong to form a more threatening situation.Lu Xun had no choice but to give up on this and focus on finding military fortresses.

Tonight, Lu Xun was thinking about how to defend Jiangxia in his camp. Sun Quan sent someone to say that there was an urgent matter, and he wanted to summon Lu Xun immediately, and asked Lu Xun and Zhuge Ke to return to Baqiu Camp together to discuss important matters.

Zhuge Ke was ordered not to delay, and quickly called Lu Xun to set off together.After a few simple instructions, Lu Xun boarded the boat that Sun Quan had arranged with Zhuge Ke.

"Jiang Xia?"

Lu Xun looked at Jiang Xia on the map, muttered a few times, his expression solemn.

After the Battle of Chibi, Jiangxia County belonged to Wei and Wu (Liu).Sun Wu occupied Queyue City (Old Xiakou) in the north of the Yangtze River and the counties of Jiangxia County in the south of the Yangtze River. Cao Wei only had Anlu and other counties in the north of the Yangtze River.

After Cao Cao appointed Wenpin as the prefect of Jiangxia, because of Wenpin's bravery and skill in fighting, he gradually recovered Jiangxia County in the north of the Yangtze River.The old city of Xiakou was abolished by Wu, the governor stationed in the south of the Yangtze River, and the city was built in the north on Huanghu Mountain in Wuhan, named Xinxiakou (now Wuchang).

Since then, the Jiangxia counties of the two countries have faced each other across the river.Before and after the Battle of Yiling, Sun Quan changed Jiangxia County in the south of the Yangtze River to Wuchang County.Soochow once succeeded in the Northern Expedition. At that time, under the command of Lu Xun, it captured Jiangxia County in Cao Wei's hands.

But today, Soochow ceded the previously acquired Jiangxia County to the Shuhan, and the Shuhan occupied the north and south of Jingzhou. In the future, they will station troops in Yuecheng, which will be like a dagger stuck in Soochow's throat.

Lu Xun looked at the Parrot Island in the middle of the river, with a pensive look on his face, maybe it can be arranged...

Just as Lu Xun was thinking, Zhuge Ke shouted from outside the cabin, "Is Mr. Lu here?"

"Hmm!" Hearing that it was Zhuge Ke, Lu Xun closed the map and asked, "What should Yuan Xun do?"

Lu Xun originally disliked Zhuge Ke's self-willedness and disliked him.But for some reason, in recent days, Zhuge Ke has a friendly attitude and gets closer to himself.Lu Xun is not an arrogant person. Seeing Zhuge Ke like this, he is also quite friendly to Zhuge Ke when he thinks about promoting future generations.

With a big belly, Zhuge Ke held the wine in his hand, and with a bright smile on his face, he said, "Duke Lu is quite tired from running around for the military and state affairs. Kete came here with wine, and wants to have a few drinks with Duke Lu. How about it?"

Lu Xun showed displeasure on his face, and reprimanded him: "When the country is in peril, I have received an imperial edict from His Majesty. Yuan Xun must not have fun, so as to forget important events."

Hearing Lu Xun's reprimand, Zhuge Ke's face turned blue and white, and he stopped pretending, and said with a sneer, "Lu Xun, do you really think that His Majesty ordered you to enter the camp to discuss state affairs?"

As soon as these words came out, a bad omen came to Lu Xun's heart, he stood up and asked, "Zhuge Ke, what do you mean?"

Zhuge Ke didn't answer, but walked into the cabin.With a bang, he put the wine on the table, and four or five fierce men behind him also entered.

Zhuge Ke sat on the seat, stared at Lu Xun and said mockingly: "Duke Lu has always had strategies, so why don't you know what His Majesty intends? Duke Lu's defeat by the Han people should be punished for his crime, but His Majesty considers Duke Lu's great achievements and cannot bear to be humiliated, so he ordered Ke send the public a ride, with the reputation of the whole Lu Gong."

Lu Xun turned pale, leaned on the wooden frame, and said with a wry smile: "Absurd! When the country is in crisis, you still want to kill the general. This is self-destructing the Great Wall! When the Han soldiers attack, you, Sun Quan, don't regret it!"

As he said that, Lu Xun glared at Zhuge Ke and cursed: "A foolish ruler and treacherous ministers are really a sign of subjugation!"

Looking at Lu Xun who was still in the dark, Zhuge Ke shook his head and sighed: "How stupid is Lu Gong! The one who wants to kill the duke today is not your Majesty, but also the king and minister of the Han Dynasty. Among the three terms of peace negotiation, there is one who must kill Xun. , only then can we talk to him."

As soon as this remark came out, Lu Xun couldn't bear it any longer. He wept and beat his chest and said, "Sun Quan, I thought you were one of the few heroes in the world. I entered your account and died for the country of Wu, serving in the battlefield. Today only I hate that I, Lu Xun, misunderstood you, bowed my knees, killed the generals, and flattered the Han people in order to seek the stability of the dynasty."

Lu Xun's mentality really exploded!
He thought he was not sorry for Sun Quan, and he really valued Sun Quan's ability to serve him at the beginning. For decades, he devoted himself to serving the battlefield.Unexpectedly, when he was in danger, Sun Quan threw him out to please the Han people and seek the stability of the past.

A feeling of betrayal welled up in my heart, with mixed feelings in my heart!
He finally understood what Wu Zixu was thinking. He really wanted to gouge out his eyeballs, hang them on the top of Jianye City, and watch the country of Wu fall with his own eyes!
Zhuge Ke looked at the sad Lu Xun, sighed, and said, "Call Guan Xing in!"

"promise!"

Guan Xing, who received the signal, led Luo Xian in, looked at Lu Xun with disheveled hair and tears streaming down his face, expressionless, and only said to Zhuge Ke, "Do it!"

Zhuge Ke waved his hand and shouted, "Send Lu Gong on his way!"

"promise!"

Four Shanyue warriors grabbed the struggling Lu Xun, one carried the bucket, the other pressed his head into the bucket, and the rest held down his limbs.Lu Xun choked on the water and kept struggling, the water in the bucket kept splashing out.

After struggling for a long while, Lu Xun seemed to have no bones in his body, with his head stuck in the bucket and his body limp on the ground.

The Shanyue Warrior found that Lu Xun was no longer struggling, and he let go of his hand. The leader turned to Zhuge Ke and said, "Patriarch, he is dead!"

Guan Xing nodded to Luo Xian.Luo Xian stepped forward and asked the Shanyue soldiers to pick up Lu Xun's head, put his fingers on his nostrils, and seeing that he was not breathing, he nodded to Guan Xing, indicating that Lu Xun was dead.

Guan Xing's eyes fell on Zhuge Ke, and said: "Your Majesty has something to say, Mr. Ge is a great talent, and he is able to make peace with the affairs of the two countries. It is up to you to stabilize the country of Wu."

Without changing his face, Zhuge Ke bowed his hands in return and said, "Thank you for your appreciation, and Ke will surely live up to expectations!"

There is no doubt that Zhuge Ke hooked up with the big man!
When the ship of Wu State was crumbling, most people wanted to change to a bigger ship, and Zhuge Ke was no exception.Since Zhuge Ke received Sun Quan's instructions, he reported the news to Zhuge Qiao, but he didn't clearly express his intention to change the master.

Zhuge Qiao was not sure, so he sent the news to Liu Chan.After Liu Chan got it, he could see Zhuge Ke's careful thinking at a glance. He wanted to use his close relationship with the big man Zhuge's to get the support of the big man in the days to come, so as to take the opportunity to rise to power.

Of course, the big man also needs a hand that can control Wu's state affairs for him, stabilize Wu for the big man, and make Soochow completely become the dog of the big man.Let him assist him in the Northern Expedition and control other noises in the country.And Zhuge Ke is ambitious, trying to rise to the top, and has a blood relationship with the Zhuge clan of the great Han, so he is the most suitable person!
This is also another core reason why Zhuge Qiao can serve as the governor of Xiangzhou.

Therefore, Liu Chan also properly expressed to Zhuge Ke through words that the big man is optimistic about his future in the state of Wu, and hopes that he can work harder to let the state of Wu take a correct path and get along with the big man in a friendly manner.

Guan Xing returned a salute and said, "Let's go! The next thing to do is to work hard on Mr. Laoge."

"Guan Jun, go slowly!" Zhuge Ke replied.

After Guan Xing got on the Han boat, he saw that the boat where Lu Xun was on caught fire, and a figure was thrown into the river.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of running water continued.

"go!"

Seeing that everything was done, Guan Xing said.

"promise!"

Luo Xian raised his arm, signaling for the Han boat to set off.

……

The next day, by the Yangtze River.

A group of Wu people gathered together, and on the open space among the crowd, a dead body was placed in the center, its skin turned white from being soaked in water.However, the body was soaked not long ago, and it was vaguely seen that it was Lu Xun, the great general of the Wu Kingdom.

Sun Quan came down with the help of everyone, looked at Lu Xun lying on the ground, and couldn't help crying loudly, saying: "I have known Bo Yan for decades, and we are called monarchs and ministers. We are actually good friends. Now that the state of Wu is in danger, Bo Yan How can you abandon me and go away?"

"The sky has no eyes!" Sun Quan burst into tears, and his clothes were wet.

Those who hear it are all sad, and feel that the monarch and his ministers are very kind!

"The great general has moved!" Someone exclaimed.

Sun Quan, who was crying, was startled and almost collapsed on the ground.

"Cuck!"

"Cuck!"

But this person was wrong, a frog jumped out from Lu Xun's cuff.Seeing this, everyone couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief.

"Who is talking nonsense!"

Sun Quan became furious and cursed: "Anyone who dares to humiliate Mr. Lu is an unforgivable crime. He will be dragged down and executed!"

"promise!"

"Your Majesty, spare your life!"

Sun Quan calmed down a little, looked at Lu Kang, who was only 14 years old, kneeling on the ground and crying, sighed, walked over, put his arm on Lu Kang's shoulder, and said, "What is your name, and how many sons are you Boyan?"

Lu Kang replied with a choked voice: "Your Majesty, the boy's name is Lu Kang, he is my father's youngest son, and he is also the only son."

Lu Xun not only had a son, Lu Kang, but also an eldest son, who died young.

Sun Quan sighed again, and said: "Bo Yan is rough, and you are the only heir. From now on, you will live in the Jianye Palace, and you will be at my side, studying soldiers and reviewing scriptures, and you will live up to your father's wisdom."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lu Kang kowtowed to Sun Quan to express his gratitude.

After a pause, Lu Kang said earnestly, "Your Majesty, my father may not have been drowned, but someone else killed him."

Sun Quan was shocked, but asked calmly, "Why did you say that?"

"There are scratches on both sides of my father's face. If he was drowning, there should be no such marks." Lu Kang said.

Sun Quan couldn't help tightening his hand, sighed and said, "Bo Yan drowned, it should be correct! The boat caught fire last night, and Bo Yan threw himself into the river to escape the fire, and unfortunately died."

As he spoke, Sun Quan patted him on the shoulder and said, "The deceased has passed away, so don't worry too much. From now on, you need to focus on military parades. If someone bullies you, I will make the decision for you."

"promise!"

Zhuge Ke who was not far away looked at this scene, smacked his lips and shook his head, showing disdain, and said in a low voice: "I also recognize a thief as my father!"

"Speak carefully, be careful that misfortune comes out of your mouth!" Zhuge Jin, who was shedding tears, reminded.

Zhuge Ke said no more.
