Three Kingdoms: The Guan Family's Rebellious Son, Long Blessing Jing Xiang

Chapter 542 Sun Quan: Without that rebellious son, you, Guan Yu, would be a prisoner
Autumn turns to winter, destined to mourn.

The dead leaves fell to the ground and the place was desolate.

Sima Yi was painting while lying in bed. The painting showed a handsome young man in a crown and robe, with a steady figure, a sitting posture, and a handsome figure, especially his eyes, which were always as calm as lake water.

It seems that nothing in the world can stir up the slightest wave in him. He is as quiet as still water, and the water is not shocked!

This portrait is Guan Lin——

In the past, when Sima Yi met Guan Lin as a "prisoner", Sima Yi had only seen that side... Guan Lin's face was deeply engraved in his mind.

Sima Yi said with mixed feelings: "The Hanchan mentioned by my father is not... the final opponent of the Yuzhou Family Alliance. It is destined not to be Cao Wei, but you Guan Lin... it's just..."

Sima Yi said here...

Zhang Chunhua looked over and asked, "Are you drawing him again? Are you thinking about him so much?"

"It's not that I miss him, but his name makes my hair stand on end..." Sima Yi paused, "Now, under his plan, Jingzhou has conquered Jiangdong, and the future situation will inevitably lead to a confrontation between the north and the south..."

"Are you afraid of him?"

"I admire his mind, and I also envy Jingzhou for giving such a rebellious son of the Guan family...the soil for such growth and development?"

"What do you mean? Cao Cao didn't give you soil?"

"Shh..." Sima Yi raised his index finger. He carefully looked around the window to make sure there was no one there, and then said: "The king of Wei has always used the clan's children and those warriors who had close friendship... But in the past year, many times, The setbacks, the defeat on the Xiangfan battlefield, the losses of Wancheng and Xudu... this proves that this road of relying on the clan... is doomed to fail!"

"So, King Wei will reuse you?"

"It's not me!" Sima Yi said solemnly, "It's the Yuzhou clan headed by the Sima, Zhong, and Chen families... Maybe we are not the opponent of Guan Lin mentally, but there is one thing... No matter what, Guan Lin It can’t compare to ours.”

"What is it?"

"These clans, which have been rooted in the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years and have been deeply cultivated in the Central Plains for hundreds of years, their inner network of relationships..." Sima Yi said firmly, "What I am thinking about now is, if there is a chance...to kill that Guan Lin, what should we do? Or not?"

This…

Sima Yi's words shocked Zhang Chunhua, but soon Zhang Chunhua came to her senses. She quickly asked: "Why not do it? Kill Guan Lin... This will be beneficial to the Wei Dynasty!"

"What's good for the Wei Dynasty is not good for the Sima family..." Sima Yi put his chin in his hand while explaining: "The collapse of Soochow is imminent, and the situation in the world has changed from a three-legged confrontation to a confrontation between the north and the south. It only took one year. In this year, So many conspiracies and tricks did Guan Lin use, how many hearts he captured, and how many overt plots he laid out, which are so hard to guard against... It seems that the collapse of Soochow was due to the alliance between Jingzhou and the Wei Dynasty to suppress the country... In fact, in the past year, the internal affairs of Soochow have been It is riddled with holes, and it has been hollowed out by Guan Lin without any leakage... In fact... the inside of Da Wei is the same!"

Sima Yi's words became more and more serious, "Can Jingzhou defeat Soochow, or... the cornerstone of the confrontation between the north and the south is actually Guan Lin. If Guan Lin makes a mistake, Guan Yu will not be able to defend Jingzhou and Jiangdong... Therefore, if Guan Lin Lin was killed, and the King of Wei...the Wei Dynasty is already safe and sound, so what chance do we and the Yuzhou clan...have to rise to the top and surpass the status of the Cao Wei clan?"

Sima Yi's words... Zhang Chunhua took a long time to understand.

"You mean, even if there is a chance... Guan Lin can't die?"

"Not only cannot he die... he must also continue to put pressure on the Wei Dynasty and the King of Wei, and continue to weaken the power of the Cao Wei clan, so that the King of Wei will eventually have no choice but to use our clan... Under the current situation, the power of the Wei clan There’s not enough pressure!”

"So, you want to use Guan Lin and the rise of Jingzhou to help you..." Zhang Chunhua couldn't help but cover his mouth at the end of his sentence. Sima Yi's words were so surprising and shocking.

"The only people in the world who can compete with Cao Cao are the Guan family and his son. Now that Soochow has perished, all Cao Cao has lost is Xiangfan and Xuchang... Cao Wei's clan members Xia Houyuan, Cao Zhen, and Cao Zhang are still here, and they hold military power. At this time... Not only can I not help Cao Cao, but I want to help Guan Lin..."

"How much help?" Zhang Chunhua's voice was trembling.

"At least I have to help Luoyang to lose, help Hanzhong to lose, help Cao clan generals to die... help Cao Cao to have no one available." Sima Yi changed his past forbearance.

This time, I don’t know whether it was because after knowing about "Han Cicada" and taking charge of "Han Cicada", the burden on him became heavier, or... he had been holding back for too long and was in urgent need of a release. He actually told Zhang Chunhua everything he was thinking. nothing left.

"Chunhua... help me!"

"how can I help you?"

"I told Cao Cao the news that Guan Lin took the water route and crossed the Lujiang River...and madam...I know that you have many close friends in the world, and I tried every means to get them to tell him personally that Cao Cao was going to intercept and kill Guan Lin..."

Sima Yi's order once again shocked Zhang Chunhua.

"You are betraying Wei and the King of Wei..."

"Haha..." Sima Yi sneered implicitly, "Due to the current situation... I only do things that are beneficial to us and the Yuzhou Alliance..."

Yes…

Just tell Guan Lin the news.

Cao Cao failed to intercept and kill Guan Lin...

That is tantamount to angering Jingzhou and Jiangdong, and angering Guan Yu.

As a result... there will be fierce battles between the north and the south, at least on the Wanluo battlefield, the Huainan battlefield, and the Hanzhong battlefield!
anyway…

Do not hit? How did the Cao Wei clan die?
If Xia Houyuan doesn't die, if Cao Zhen doesn't die, if Cao Zhang doesn't die, Sima Yi... How can their Yuzhou Alliance, their so-called Han Chan, go from "emerging" to "taking the lead" in the Wei Dynasty!
His enemy, Sima Yi, is Guan Lin, but... Similarly, his enemy, Sima Yi, is also the clan of Cao Wei!

Use your enemies to weaken your enemies…

This is the game set by Sima Yi.

Of course, this requires careful control. If you are not careful... it is very likely that tigers will become a disaster, and there will be no recovery——

"Zhongda, have you really thought about it?"

"Now, Cao Piyou is in Jiangdong. I originally wanted to place my hope on him, but he is still alive and dead, so I can no longer count on him... The only one we can rely on is ourselves!"

Sima Yi's tone became more solemn and meticulous.

His hawk-like eyes looked straight at Zhang Chunhua, "Chunhua, help me...help me this time!"

...

...

"It turns out that the flying ball... is in Mangdang Mountain! No wonder... our secret tunnel can lead to the entire Luoyang City, but we have no information about Ma Jun and the flying ball..."

In the secret passage underground in Luoyang, Lingju squinted her eyes. There was a layout map of Luoyang in front of her.

On it, the location of Mangdang Mountain is clearly marked.

Speaking of which, front-end time... Guan Lin sent a message asking them to pay close attention to Ma Jun and Da Wei's imitation of Feiqiu. From then on, Lingju and the entire parrot spared no effort to investigate the matter.

But the result was nothing.

Of course, in front of Lingju and Parrot now... besides this matter, there is another thing, which is to kidnap the emperor.

You know, Lingju and her uncle Zang Ba still have a bet. If the emperor no longer Cao Wei, then in Nanyang... Zang Ba and the [-] Taishan army will all surrender to Jingzhou.

Taking into account Zang Ba’s bravery and leadership, and the uniqueness of the Taishan Army, a special mountain army on the battlefield!
One ebbs and the other ebbs and flows…

This is a great help to the annihilation of Cao Cao!
At this moment... standing in front of Lingju were several core executives of "Parrot", and Guan Xing was also there.

Guan Xing couldn't help but open his mouth: "Since I know the whereabouts of Ma Jun, why not... I sneak into Mangdang Mountain secretly, find Ma Jun, and then kill him... In this way, the fourth brother will solve a serious problem. No more worries about imitation of Mianshui Villa’s ordnance!”

"Sneaking in?" Lingju was startled, "How did you sneak in? Our secret passages are all over Luoyang City, but... Mangdang Mountain is not connected? Mangdang Mountain is so big, the Han Emperor Gaozu killed the White Snake and revolted there, and Chen Sheng and Wu Guang also Buried there, Confucius took shelter from the rain and gave lectures there, leaving behind Confucius Cliff and Confucius Mountain, the imperial tombs of the Han Dynasty are also there, there are so many places...where are you going to find them?"

"But... Wei Wei's flying ball has already taken off. If we... we don't do anything... then... then..." Guan Xing is not good at words...

But the meaning could not have been expressed more clearly...

Do we really want to go air-to-air?
Fancheng in the past could turn into a sea of ​​fire, so... Xuchang, Wancheng, and Xiangyang today could also turn into a sea of ​​fire under the flying balls of the Wei Dynasty.

——"Damn it!" 』

"Calm down..." Lingju comforted Guan Xing and said, "Now, let's do nothing. Let's tell Yun Qi what we found here... maybe he can find a way!"

"What can he do if he is far away in Jiangling?"

"Other words may not work, but he, even if he is thousands of miles away, must have a way!" Lingju seemed to have special trust in Guan Lin...

Guan Xing was still confused, "But..."

This time, before he could speak, Ling Ju's words came out first, "We are not the only ones who have placed Yunqi in Luoyang City... Instead of us running around like headless flies, it's better... to wait for him to plan his strategy, and wait for him That careful deployment is coming, if this is the case, the chances... will be even greater!"

This…

Undoubtedly, Lingju's words successfully convinced Guan Xing, which also allowed Guan Xing to loosen his clenched fists.

"call…"

With a long sigh, Guan Xing cupped his hands towards Lingju, "In that case, I'm going to practice concealed weapons. Farewell -"

hidden weapon…

That's right, since arriving here, what Guan Xing has practiced is no longer the powerful Qinglong Yanyue Sword, but a hidden hidden weapon.

The reckless and greedy Guan Xing who wielded the Qinglong Yanyue Sword is no longer there.

Instead, what grows here is a "shadow", a deadly fang that can kill with one strike in the dark in the future...

...

...

In Luoyang City, a street food shop, the weather turned cold... and the business of the mutton soup restaurant suddenly improved.

The aroma of the stewed mutton penetrated the nostrils along with the hot air, refreshing people's spirits and making their index fingers move.

"A bowl of hot soup, two taels of mutton, and a lamb brain -"

Li Miao opened his mouth skillfully.

Speaking of which, this "mutton soup" from Jingzhou in the south quickly became a trend as soon as recipes were introduced in the Central Plains and the North. It was as popular as Shu Brocade.

Of course, ordinary people... can't afford luxurious Shu brocade, but they can always afford "mutton soup", right?

Li Miao was sitting in a corner of the food shop, and a lot of comments came to his ears.

"Have you heard? Soochow is about to perish?"

"Isn't it right? Didn't Jingzhou just attack Wuhu and Jianye? It's just a port and a city... Soochow has six counties and 72 counties. I'm afraid it won't be so easy to subjugate the country, right?"

"You don't know yet, right? Sun Quan has fled overseas... I never thought that he would be betrayed by his clansmen and fell into the ambush set up by Guan Si early in the morning, and he would be captured... Sun Quan was also captured, then... Soochow What else can we resist? Can the country not be destroyed?"

"So...then we, Da Wei, and the Guan family father and son are going to fight again...Oh no...this is going to start a fight..."

When he said this, the big man who was about to lower his head to drink the mutton soup quickly raised his head, his expression becoming frightened and fearful.

He continued, "What if Guan Si lets those terrible flying balls fly into the sky again and throws the cans of kerosene down one by one? Our newly built Luoyang City will be burned down again. Don't we... don't we also learn that How can any of the soldiers in Fancheng survive?"

After saying these words, many people around him became worried. The fragrant mutton soup suddenly... didn't smell anymore.

At this time, a person opened his mouth: "Don't worry..."

It was Li Miao who spoke, "Although Guan Si is good at conspiracy and has killed people without blinking an eye, at least...so far, he has no precedent of massacring or burning people. He only kills brave soldiers. In addition, Liu Bei has always What is being promoted is benevolent government. If Guan Si really dares to burn down Luoyang City, everyone in the world will have to poke the back of that big-eared thief!" Li Miao said.

Only then did everyone put away their worries, and they all agreed: "Yes, yes, this gentleman...sees far...and understands everything!"

This is just a small episode.

Afterwards, a bowl of mutton soup containing two ounces of mutton was brought by the waiter and placed on Li Miao's table.

People around are still talking...

Commenting on the current situation is one of the few forms of entertainment in this era...

The first day of the month was judged to be down, but once the whale fell, all things came to life. These food shops, tea stalls, and wine shops became the best places for people to discuss the current situation and evaluate characters after dinner.

It is also a powerful way for local authorities to obtain information...

But in the midst of the discussion...

No one noticed Li Miao anymore.

Over here... the waiter placed the mutton soup in front of Li Miao, and some of the mutton soup spilled out. He quickly wiped the table with a rag, apologized loudly, and whispered in an extremely fine voice: "Mr. last night Have you noticed the sky?"

Li Miao nodded, but looked around with his eyes, making sure that no one around him was paying attention to him, and then lowered his voice, "This is the purpose of my coming here..."

"I have sent this news to Jiangling..."

Following these words from the waiter, Li Miao's expression began to become meticulous, "Jiangling is thousands of miles away from here. 'Hong Qigong' just knows it and is afraid that he can't do anything..."

"How about that?"

"Send another message and say that I will find a way to find out the specific location where Cao Wei made the flying ball. You ask 'Hong Qigong' to prepare the flying ball in Xudu City. Once I find the location, the flying ball will fly directly into the sky. , a fire burned the place, Ma Jun, and all the craftsmen of Cao Wei, so that there will be no future troubles..."

This…

Li Miao's words shocked the waiter, so much so that his hand became unsteady and he actually touched the bowl of mutton soup.

With a "pop" sound, the bowl was knocked over...mutton soup spread all over the table.

This sudden sound aroused the thoughts of those around him.

Fortunately, Li Miao reacted very quickly and roared: "You son of a bitch, do you know who I am? Do you know that my clothes are fine Sichuan brocade, even if I sell you this dog-like thing, I will still pay compensation." I can’t afford—”

Li Miao cursed at the waiter...

At this time, someone in the crowd realized, "It turns out to be...Mr. Li, an important minister of the Wei Dynasty..."

"Yes... I heard that Mr. Li is the military advisor personally appointed by the King of Wei. This official title... belongs to Guo Fengxiao in the past..."

"Mr. Li is not only a military advisor, but also because of his meritorious service...The King of Wei specially rewarded him with two thousand soldiers. He is also an important minister of the domineering government and is in charge of the school affairs office...Civil officials and counselors can have such a number of soldiers and can be stationed there." Domineering the government and taking charge of the school affairs office, Mr. Li can be said to be the first among the foreign ministers of the Wei Dynasty!"

"Besides these, don't forget...he...he is still a madman!"

The surrounding discussions did not affect Li Miao's roaring curses...

"Humph!"

Li Miao snorted coldly and continued angrily: "My good mood has been disturbed by you son of a bitch. 'Birds and monsters nest in the palace trees, and foxes climb on the garden walls. Even if you are in danger, you will be virtuous. How can you ignore your steps?" Xiang. Qi stirs up thunder and anger, God drives Yue Du to be busy'...disappointment, disappointment——"

Li Miao flicked his long sleeves and left angrily. Before leaving...he left the waiter with a meaningful look.

How could the waiter not understand...

——"Mr. Li is determined...to find out the place in Mang Mountain where flying balls are made!" This... is too risky! 』

He thought so, but Li Miao had already left "angrily" as if he didn't recognize his relatives.

In his opinion…

When Guan Lin receives the urgent message, thinks of countermeasures, and sends the urgent message back, the flying ball against Wei will be in the air!

The most urgent task is to find their hiding place in Mang Mountain and Ma Jun before Cao Wei's flying ball takes shape...

If Ma Jun doesn't die, Li Miao won't be able to sleep!

...

...

Jiangdong, Kuaiji County.

Although it was dark night, the torches on the city towers throughout Shanyin County were brightly lit, and Lu Fan was directing the soldiers to carry the wood arrow stones, which was a desperate resistance.

After three days of sailing, Lu Su, who had been driving for three days, came with Sun Deng and Luo Tong on horseback. They were already exhausted, but when they looked up and saw the brightly lit Shanyin County, the three of them couldn't help but look at each other.

Lu Su sighed with emotion: "If we really want to fight, I'm afraid tens of thousands of Jiangdong's creatures will be reduced to withered bones... These sacrifices are meaningless."

His words made Sun Deng ponder for a moment, and Sun Deng also whispered: "In Jiangdong, my father's choices have been wrong countless times, but this mistake... As a son, I should avoid it for him!"

They were discussing under the tower...

But the guards on the tower shouted: "Who is it?"

Lu Su raised his hands and shouted loudly: "I am Lu Su, the former governor of Soochow. Why don't you open the city gate quickly!"

This…

For a moment, the defenders on the city gate were stunned.

They didn't expect... Lu Su would come at this time!

When Lu Fan heard this, he cursed angrily, "Lu Zijing, Marquis Wu took you very lightly... but you betrayed him, do you still have the nerve to come back?"

Faced with Lu Fan's questioning, Lu Su slowly shook his head, and then said with emotion: "The Marquis of Wu really treated me well? He put me and the eldest son as hostages in Jingzhou, how could he sneak attack on Changsha and Changsha without any regard for our safety?" Jiangling... is indeed not a little generous, but a generous one!"

This…

Lu Su's words left Lu Fan speechless.

At this time, there was a "crunch", and the originally silent door, which looked like a dormant giant beast, suddenly opened. Lu Fan walked out in person. He bowed his hands to Lu Su, and then said: "Commander, please come quickly..."

just like…

Even though things have come to this, Lu Su's... prestige in Soochow remains the same as before.

Lu Fan's eyes flickered and his tone became much softer. He quickly shouted: "Ding Gong... This Lu Zijing has returned to Jingzhou. If he enters the city, he will probably deceive people!"

Lu Su immediately replied: "Why do I need to deceive people's hearts? I just want to say... Sun Quan has been captured, how about you hold on? Do you want to force the Guan family to order the death of Sun Quan? Or do you want to force the Guan family army to kill Sun Quan?" Can Sun Quan be used as hostage to force this gate to be opened? Or are we going to force our former lord to die under this tower?"

This…

Undoubtedly, Lu Su's words struck directly at the most vulnerable spiritual defense line of these defenders, and directly made Lu Fan speechless.

Only then did he realize that now...Sun Quan is in Guan Lin's hands, and everyone is a sword and I am a fish...

He only cares about his own reputation, but does not care about the safety of his lord. He...what is he holding on to?
What if one day his lord Sun Quan was kidnapped by Wu Hua Da in front of the city and threatened by the Guan army. If the city gate was not opened, Sun Quan would be beheaded under the city?
At that time, he, Lu Fan, would no longer maintain his reputation as a loyal man, but... he would become a sycophant with a long-standing reputation!
This... Lu Su's words are heart-breaking!
Lu Su's words were an obvious plan, but... Lu Fan was still powerless to stop it.

"Surrender... After the Jingzhou Army captured Jianye City, they sent people to protect both the Sun family's residence and the residences of the generals. They guarded the gates and were not allowed to enter and cause disturbance. The families of the soldiers were also protected. Qiu has no offense... Guan Yunqi also promised me that if you return and surrender, he will never embarrass Zhongmou... I promise him a happy life, you... If you are truly loyal, you should think about Zhongmou and the six counties in Jiangdong 72 Let the county think about it..."

None of Lu Su's words were nonsense, but every sentence... was conclusive and true... making people extremely moved when they heard it.

He was able to single-handedly make Sun Quan insist on fighting the Battle of Red Cliff!

He can also use his sharp tongue to resolve the final crisis for thousands of people in Soochow!

Lu Dai, on the other hand, took a long breath and then shouted to the soldiers on the entire city tower.

"The Grand Governor said this, you...are you willing to fight and surrender?"

"I'm willing to surrender——"

"I wish to surrender——"

"Please, General, let me wait until I go home——"

Voices came out one after another...

With a "click" sound, Lu Fan's legs went weak, and he knelt down helplessly on the ground... Lu Su's voice, the voices of the soldiers, and the crisp sound of him kneeling on the ground... all made him realize that everything was overwhelming. .

He seemed to have no strength to even get angry, so he could only sigh and hold his head in silence.

at the same time…

At the port not far from here, the large ship from Yizhou has docked.

Sun Quan appeared here. His legs were disabled, his ribs were wrapped in bandages, and he looked extremely weak.

Even so...his hands were still tied behind his back...

In front of him, Guan Yu, Gan Ning, Sun Jiao, Su Fei, Zhuge Jin, and Zhuge Ke had been waiting here...

Hongyan's people were not there, as if Guan Yu deliberately did not tell them.

Sun Quan raised his eyes...these familiar and unfamiliar faces made him feel like a knife!
Ha ha…

More than a year ago, these were Sun Quan's humerus, but now... they are...

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha…"

Sun Quan smiled bitterly while crying.

Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and stepped forward, "Sun Zhongmou, I never thought that Guan would meet you in this situation..."

"Haha..." Sun Quan was still smiling bitterly. He looked around at the people around him again, then shook his head and said: "Ruo Ganning, Ling Tong, Lu Xun, Zhuge and his son, Sun Jiao, Su Fei... are still civil servants under their own command, if If you didn't have that 'rebellious son' like Guan Lin, you would never be so lonely... Maybe, if you think about it boldly, it's you, Guan Yunchang, who is a prisoner today - "

Prisoner…

Guan Yu will never become a prisoner.

嗏

What Sun Quan said is correct. If it weren't for the rebellious son of the Guan family, today would not be a great victory in Jiangdong, but a defeat in Maicheng... That would be a brand new and completely different story!
