Editing of the ten loyal ministers and the emperors standing up

Chapter 59: Sun Quan, the scapegoat, becomes a target!
Although Sun Quan was doubtful, he couldn't help but turn back. On the one hand, he asked the spies to find out the situation, and on the other hand, he was questioning the Shu Han envoy!
"Why did Mr. Zhuge invite me to meet in Hefei?"

"Reporting to the Marquis of Wu, my Prime Minister has taken advantage of the chaos to capture the city of Hefei and killed Zhang Liao. This is equivalent to cutting off an arm of Cao Cao!"

The Han envoys all said with pride,

Sun Quan didn't quite believe it, and even wondered if Zhuge Liang was lying to him. Zhang Liao's ferocity in the past few days really impressed him.

Even the main camp was almost destroyed by the opponent. When he retreated today, he almost lost his life. How could such a hero die so easily in the hands of Zhuge Liang? ?
He was frightened and afraid of Zhang Liao!

Just when he was hesitating, the spy came quickly and reported:

"Reporting to the Marquis of Wu, Hefei has been captured, and Hefei has been replaced by the banner of Zhuge Liang, the lord of Wuxiang in the Han Dynasty."

Sun Quan's face changed again and again in an instant. He was angry and annoyed at the moment. He was angry that Wu Wu failed to capture Hefei after fighting hard for a long time.

What's annoying is that Hefei was captured by the Shu Han, and the other party always calls himself a big man in front of him, and he doesn't want to make it easy for the other party.

Sun Quan looked at the envoy sent by Zhuge Liang with a smile, and said with a smile:

"Your Zhuge military advisor is really good at it. Taking advantage of the fierce battle between our army and Cao's army, he actually took the city of Hefei lightly. It's really impressive!"

Zhuge Liang's envoy smiled and said:
"Wu Hou, our prime minister is looking for you to discuss the matter of Hefei, and we invite you to come over to discuss things."

……

Sun Quan finally entered Hefei City, and then talked about Zhuge Liang's warm reception. Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly and said with a smile:

"Wu Hou, long time no see, I miss you so much!"

"Hahaha, I've been wanting to be my husband for a long time!"

The two chatted animatedly for a while, and then Sun Quan said:
"Mr. Zhuge's tactics are indeed good. We said goodbye that day, and only today do we realize how powerful he is. This nuclear city was easily taken over by him. I am so impressed!"

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly and said modestly:
"Wu Houyan is serious, Liang is just a trick. If you hadn't dragged Zhang Liao's army in front,

How can Liang win? With such great achievements, Liang doesn’t dare to be greedy! "

Sun Quan nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile:

"Okay, Mr. Zhuge invites me to come over for discussion. What do you mean?"

Sun Quan finally thought about continuing the conversation, and Zhuge Liang smiled and said:

"I have invited Wu Hou to negotiate with me. I intend to exchange the land of Hefei for Jingzhou. Our army is willing to give up Hefei. I only ask Wu Hou to change the contract. What do you think?"

Sun Quan was not happy when he heard this and suppressed his anger and said:

"How can Hefei City compare to Jingzhou? Mr. Zhuge, don't make fun of me!"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said:

"Wu Hou, why can't Hefei compare? This meat is yours only when you eat it.

Dahan and Dawu were originally allies, but Liang couldn't bear the general's reputation to fall to the ground!
Our army took Hefei lightly, but the general returned with a great defeat. I am afraid that some people in Soochow would criticize him privately, and the general would be disgraced. "

"Hmph, how dare you, thief, do you really think that my sword will not stand?"

Sun Quan said dissatisfiedly, he came here just to build up his prestige during the Northern Expedition, how could he be willing to see his prestige damaged?
Zhuge Liang said cleverly:
"Then let's change the hypothesis. Wu Hou personally leads the troops to defeat Compound Fei, and kills Zhang Liao, Li Dian, and Le Jin in formation!
From then on, the road to the Northern Expedition was opened up. The road ahead was unobstructed, and it was possible to advance, attack, retreat, or defend. The entire Huainan was trembling under the iron hoof of Soochow!

All this is due to the wise and powerful Wu Marquis. When the time comes, the general's reputation in Wu County will probably far exceed that of your father and brother.

Who wouldn’t praise me highly, saying that having a son should be like Sun Zhongmou? "

"it is good……"

Sun Quan was so blown away that he unexpectedly signed a contract and exchanged Jingzhou for Hefei.

Zhuge Liang packed up the weapons and supplies and all the captured goods overnight and rushed back to Jingzhou. This was a scene where everyone was happy!
It made Ji Hanjun and his ministers very happy, and also made everyone in Soochow very happy!
Only Cao Cao in Xudu was very unhappy!
The moment he left Hefei City, Zhuge Liang actively sent people to exaggerate Wu Jun's achievements. Zhao Yun asked in confusion:
"Military advisor, Zhang Liao was originally killed by our army, why do we want to exaggerate the reputation of Soochow?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said:

"Cao Cao lost his famous general and lost Hefei. He is bound to take revenge. Now our famous general Guan Yu is about to "die with hatred."
With Sun Quan's victory so great, how could Cao Cao not go out in person?
When Cao Wu is anxious, it will be time for me, the great Han, to recover Chang'an from the north! "

"Hahaha, the strategist is really wise. It's a pity that Sun Quan didn't know that he had already fallen into the strategist's plan." "In order to regain the Central Plains, it doesn't matter if Liang bears a little notoriety, it's just a little trouble."

……

With the spies arranged by Zhuge Liang coming out, and Sun Quan deliberately concealing it, the news of Wu Jun's victory spread to the north and south of the country. If there was a big-character poster at this time, it would probably be:

[Sun Quanquan shook Xiaoyaojin, and having children should be like Sun Zhongmou! 】

[One hundred thousand Wu troops marched across the river, and Cao Jun in Hefei died in fear! 】

[Sun Quan, the Marquis of Wu, quickly conquered Compound Feicheng in just a few days. He personally led the troops into battle and led the Wu army to kill Zhang Liao, Le Jin, Li Dian,

When Cao Jun heard his name, they were all frightened and fled in panic! 】

Sun Quan became so popular that he even overshadowed Guan Yu, who was "dying and dying".

For Cao Cao, this news was like a bolt from the blue. Guan Yu's victory had already affected Xuchang.

And Sun Quan's victory would radiate to the entire Huainan. If the opponent starts the Northern Expedition, the country will be on the verge of collapse!

Cao Cao once again served rice!

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, Sun Quan is just a common man, how could he kill three of my generals?
Impossible, absolutely impossible! "

Prime Minister Cao stood up excitedly, looked at the guard Xu Chu beside him, and said angrily:

"Pass the order, I will personally attack Sun Quan's son, and use his head as a sacrifice to my Wen Yuan and Man Cheng, Wen Qian!"

On the one hand, Cao Cao wanted revenge, but on the other hand, Sun Quan did threaten the Huainan area, and Cao Cao had to send troops to attack him.

A few months later, Cao Cao's army began to march towards Hefei in an all-out manner. The two main forces split up and attacked. The main force was led by Cao Cao himself, and the partial force was led by Xiahou Dun!
The main force of Cao's army continued to advance eastward and arrived east of Hefei. However, at this moment, Cao Cao received bad news.

In order to defend against Cao Jun's powerful offensive, Lu Meng made full preparations. He set up tens of thousands of strong bows and crossbows in Hefei to prepare.

However, this time Cao Jun's tactics of attacking from both sides prevented him from continuing to defend passively.

Lu Meng couldn't help but think of the Battle of Chibi ten years ago. At that time, Zhou Yu faced a similar situation.

But he did not stick to Xiakou with a fixed mindset, but took the initiative to smash Cao Cao's plan of a two-pronged attack.

So Lü Meng decided to follow the example of his predecessors. He took advantage of the fact that Cao Jun's deployment had not been completed and the Northern Route Army had not gained a stable foothold.

Launched an active attack, defeated the front vanguard of this force, and achieved a good start.

Cao Cao was furious after hearing the news and continued to urge the army to advance. However, it didn't take long for him to receive a second blow.

At that time, the main vanguard of Cao's army had already advanced to the east of Hefei, and Xiahou Dun's troops also arrived quickly and completed the encirclement. In order to prevent Lu Meng of Hefei from being attacked on both sides, he

Sun Quan sent the fierce general Gan Ning to lead 3000 men as front commander, preparing to launch a night attack on Cao's army to delay the opponent's actions.

At the second watch, Gan Ning and others rushed to Cao Cao's camp with their coins in hand.

They quickly destroyed the antlers at the camp gate and rushed into the camp. This elite soldier slaughtered them like tigers rushing into a herd of sheep.

Cao's army was caught off guard and nearly a thousand people were quickly killed.

Seeing the enemy soldiers coming, Cao Jun panicked, thinking that it was a large-scale attack by Soochow, and quickly got up to prepare for battle.

But Gan Ning saw that his goal had been achieved, so he did not hesitate to fight and retreated directly, and then went to return to Sun Quan.

Cao Cao and Sun Quan fought outside Hefei City. They were very anxious and inseparable. Each had its own victory or defeat. Three months had passed since the fight.

The news spread quickly, and Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, who were far away in Jingzhou, looked at each other and smiled!
"Military advisor, everything is ready for the Northern Expedition!"

"Hahaha, my lord, I only have three generals left to send me to wait for a breeze!"
