Three Kingdoms: Heir of Wolong, my father-in-law is Guan Gong

"The traitor general Lu Xun committed suicide in the Han River."

"If you don't surrender now, when will you wait?"

"You are the people of the Han Dynasty, why do you rebel against the Han Dynasty?"

"The false emperor Sun Quan presumptuously proclaimed himself emperor and caused you to suffer this disaster. Do you still want to be loyal to the false emperor Sun Quan?"

"Without the false emperor Sun Quan, you could have lived and worked in peace and contentment in Jiangdong, but now you have to bear the name of a traitor. How sad!"

"His Majesty the Han Dynasty is benevolent and virtuous. As long as you abandon your weapons and surrender, you will still be the subjects of the Han Dynasty."

"If you want to stay in Jingzhou, the General of Fu Han will divide you and wait for the land; if you want to go back to Jiangdong, the General of Fu Han will escort you back to Jiangdong."

Throughout the river, Han soldiers were constantly trying to persuade the fleeing Jiangdong soldiers to surrender.

Although Lu Xun died, the 80,000-strong army was not completely wiped out.

In order to prevent these Jiangdong soldiers from wandering around Jingzhou and harming the people, Zhuge Qiao promptly issued a message to persuade them to surrender, and asked Jingzhou soldiers to shout for surrender across the river.

Mianshui.

Han Dang and Pan Zhang looked pale and couldn't believe the intelligence sent back by the scouts.

"The general committed suicide in the Han River? This, this, how is this possible!" Pan Zhang stumbled, his eyes widened.

Han Dang grabbed the scout's shirt and shouted, "How dare you disturb the morale of our army?"

The scout panicked and said: "General, I have not disturbed the morale of the army! Rumors are spreading across the river, and Han dogs are also trying to recruit the defeated Jiangdong soldiers."

Between shouting and scolding.

Another scout came to report in panic: "General, we found Han Dog Shuai's ship, yes, yes, it's Zhuge Qiao!"

Han Dang's expression became solemn, he threw the captured scout aside and ordered the warships to form an array.

Seeing the Han soldiers' teeth flag getting closer and closer, Han Dang's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

The drums started beating.

Before Han Dang could react, fireballs and rockets poured out, and another ignited warship rushed towards Han Dang's ship formation.

Zhuge Qiao didn't even persuade him to surrender, but directly ordered a covering strike.

The inextinguishable "oil fire" has once again become a nightmare for Jiangdong soldiers.

Facing this unknown flame, all Jiangdong soldiers could do was kneel down and pray to God for salvation.

After a round of blows, the already low morale of Jiangdong's soldiers was once again low, and many people waved the flag and surrendered.

"I have followed my old master for decades, but I didn't expect that today I would witness Jiangdong's decline and death."

"God may not bless me Jiangdong!"

Han Dang cried out to heaven with sorrow.

Handang, who was active in the Sun Jian era, successively served as the three masters of Sun Jian, Sun Ce and Sun Quan. He witnessed the rise of Jiangdong, but now he has to witness the decline of Jiangdong.

This kind of unbearable pain made Han Dang feel that his whole life was filled with endless confusion and pain.

however.

There are many people in this world who cannot afford to rest in peace, and Han Dang is one of them.

Competing positions will lead to victory and defeat.

Looking at the burning warships around him and the Jiangdong soldiers who gave up resistance, Han Dang reluctantly raised his sword and said: "Old Master, I am a humble slave."

Han Dang committed suicide and died. The surrounding Jiangdong soldiers committed suicide, surrendered, and escaped by jumping into the water. The river suddenly became chaotic.

Pan Zhang was very worried.

Han Dang lived for a long time and died when he died.

Pan Zhang was in his prime and didn't want to die yet!

"If you don't want to die, just come to me!"

"Whoever dares to stop him will be hit and sunk!"

Pan Zhang drove the big ship and shouted crazily.

All the Jiangdong boats blocking the road were capsized by Pan Zhang.

A large ship opened the way, and Jiangdong soldiers who did not want to surrender or die in the rear followed in boats.

In front.

Zhao Lei saw this and sailed the ship across the river.

"General Fu Han has an order. Even if all the warships in Xiakou are rammed and sunk, a single Wu Dog warship cannot be allowed to go to Fankou!"

Pan Zhang was furious.

Zhao Lei was equally ruthless.

The warships of both sides collided on the river and broke into pieces.

"Damn it!" Pan Zhang's eyes were red.

Zhao Lei's fierce attack directly cut off Pan Zhang's last chance to break through and return to Fankou.

Without the warship, it would be a foolish dream to return to Jiangdong!
"Surround!"

After losing the price of three large ships, Zhao Lei blocked the breakout of Jiangdong's warships and ordered all the soldiers to besieged in small boats.

Without warships, the navy is just like the cavalry without horses. Without their mobility, they can only fight hand-to-hand at close quarters.

Pan Zhang slashed at the surrounding Han soldiers.

Although he is brave, he can't beat four hands with two fists.

In the eyes of all the Han soldiers, Pan Zhang was a walking warrior.

Even if several Han soldiers were hacked to death by Pan Zhang, the remaining Han soldiers were not only not afraid, but also aroused more bloodshed.

During the parry, Pan Zhang was slashed in the arm by a Han soldier. The remaining Han soldiers swarmed up and hacked Pan Zhang to death.

It's approaching dusk.

The war is over.

The remaining fire on the river has not been extinguished, and the smoke is filling the air.

None of the Jiangdong soldiers who broke through the siege escaped!

"Clean the battlefield quickly." Zhao Lei ordered again.

Such a battle with many casualties can easily cause a plague if the battlefield cannot be cleared as soon as possible.

Zhuge Qiao, who was chasing after him, learned that Guan Xing had not returned from his attack on Fankou, so he made a prompt decision and organized the remaining warships to head for Fankou.

The mighty warships sailed to Fankou, and Sun Huan's head in Fankou almost exploded.

"Chai Sang's reinforcements haven't arrived yet?" Sun Huan said angrily.

The Han soldiers have increased their troops, but our own reinforcements have not yet arrived.

The deputy general was also anxious: "I'm already urging you."

During the discussion, a small colonel came over in horror: "General, Han dogs are trying to persuade us to surrender outside the water village, saying, saying, saying, the general has committed suicide."

Sun Huan's expression changed drastically: "Do you believe what Han Gou says? How dare you disturb the morale of our army? Drag him down and kill him!"

The colonel was shocked: "General, I don't believe it, I just--"

Sun Huan ignored Xiao Xiao's plea for mercy and ordered the warriors to kill Xiao Xiao. He also ordered the entire army to "kill anyone who dares to whisper and disturb the morale of the army!".

"This Fankou guard is quite capable." Seeing that the strategy of disrupting the morale of the army failed, Zhuge Qiao ordered all the troops to surround Fankou and sent troops to Chaisang to act as a suspect.

At the same time, information such as "Lu Xun committed suicide", "Han Dang committed suicide" and "Pan Zhang was beheaded" were spread along the way.

After explaining the details to Guan Xing and other generals, Zhuge Qiao took a boat to Xiangyang. Before Zhuge Qiao arrived, he asked Su Fei, Liao Hua and other generals to lead troops to Wancheng.

Although Zhuge Qiao had a time lag after defeating Lu Xun, Nanyang was empty.

If Lu Xun is defeated but Nanyang is lost, the pseudo-Wei will really become a fisherman.

And the fact was as Zhuge Qiao expected.

After Man Chong saw Zhuge Qiao's main force returning to Jiangxia, he realized that he had been tricked.

On the one hand, he sent people to inform Cao Xiu to attack Lu Yang, and on the other hand, he led troops to join Cao Xiu.

Wang Ping migrated the scholars and people in Luyang and the north of Wancheng early. Seeing Cao Xiu's arrival, he decisively abandoned Luyang and retreated to Wancheng.

only.

After Cao Xiu captured Luyang, he was worried that Wang Ping was luring the enemy deeper, so he did not continue to pursue Wang Ping.

By the time Man Chong arrived in Luyang, Cao Xiu had been stationed in Luyang for ten days. Man Chong was so angry that he quarreled with Cao Xiu on the spot.

Cao Xiu was dissatisfied, insisting that "you can never make a big mistake if you are careful", and then took out Cao Rui's edict "It is better to have no merit than to make no mistakes", which made Man Chong angry, angry and helpless.

Missing the opportunity to take Wancheng by force, Man Chong could only lead his troops to Shouchun again.

Man Chong was worried that Sun Quan would jump over the wall and sue for peace with Liu Bei, and then lead troops to capture Shouchun.

Jianye.

After learning that "Lu Xun committed suicide", "Han Dang committed suicide", "Pan Zhang was beheaded" and other information actively spread by Zhuge Qiao, Sun Quan withered on the spot.

The furious Sun Quan ran out of the palace and shouted: "Lu Xun has 80,000 troops, how could he kill himself! Who is spreading rumors and trying to confuse me?"

Before Sun Quan's anger dissipated, Gu Yong came proactively: "Your Majesty, something big has happened!"

Sun Quan was still furious: "Prime Minister, did you also believe the rumors of the traitor?"

When Gu Yong saw the shivering lieutenant, he waved his hand and stepped back, saying in a solemn voice: "Your Majesty, this is not a rumor! Lu Xun's body has been sent to Fankou!"

Sun Quan staggered back, his hands trembling, and the broken little finger was in excruciating pain: "No, it's impossible! How could Lu Xun be defeated?"

If Lu Xun lost, Sun Quan wouldn't be so surprised. After all, his opponent was Zhuge Qiao.

But Sun Quan really couldn't believe it that Lu Xun was dead.

With Lu Xun's caution, he could escape unscathed even if he was defeated. How could he die?

Gu Yongyan briefly and comprehensively stated the battle situation in Jingzhou. When he learned that Zhuge Qiao's main force was moving from Yuzhou to Xiakou, Sun Quan was shocked:

"Cao Xiu and Man Chong actually let Zhuge Qiao's main force steal Yuzhou and enter Xiakou?"

"This must be intentional!"

"It must be intentional!"

"Wei Gou is disgusting, he harmed my 80,000-strong army!"

"That's an army of 80,000!"

Sun Quan's heart was bleeding.

The 100,000-strong Jiangdong army was accumulated by Sun Quan for decades, and now half of it was lost in one battle. How could Sun Quan accept this?

Gu Yong said: "Your Majesty, beware of Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Ke's father and son."

Sun Quan was stunned and frowned: "Prime Minister, what do you mean? Ziyu and his son have always been loyal, how can I be wary?"

Gu Yong sighed: "Your Majesty, people's words are terrible. Although Zhuge Qiao was adopted by Zhuge Liang, he is Zhuge Jin's biological son after all."

"Jiangdong suffered such a big loss this time, it is inevitable that someone will point the finger at Zhuge Jin and his son."

"If Zhuge Jin and his son want to prove themselves, they can only lead troops to attack Zhuge Qiao. But if Zhuge Jin and his son are really allowed to attack Zhuge Qiao, then all the remaining soldiers and horses in Jiangdong will be ruined."

Sun Quan's brows tightened: "What does the Prime Minister mean?"

Gu Yong's eyes were slightly sharp: "Remove the military power of Zhuge Jin and his son, and your Majesty will send troops to protect him secretly. This will prevent Zhuge Jin and his son from being accused by rumors."

"At the same time, it can also avoid accidents that may happen if Zhuge Jin and his son are forced to fight Zhuge Qiao."

Sun Quan paced and pondered.

Obviously, Gu Yong's advice made Sun Quan waver. "If the military power of Ziyu and his son is removed, who can control the army?" Sun Quan stopped and asked again.

Gu Yong said: "Both the chariot general Zhu Ran and the former general Zhu Huan can command troops."

Sun Quan pondered for a moment and said: "In that case, according to the Prime Minister's words, let the chariot general Zhu Ran lead his troops to Fankou to help the battle, and then let the former general Zhu Huan go to Hefei to replace Zhuge Ke."

Zhu Ran's original name was Shi Ran. Because Zhu Ran's uncle Zhu Zhi had no children, he adopted Zhu Zhi as his son.

The young Zhu Ran once studied with Sun Quan, and they had a deep friendship; Zhu Zhi was an old member of Sun Jian's army and was a direct descendant of the Sun family.

Zhu Huan followed Sun Quan when he first succeeded Jiang Dong, and he was also a direct descendant of the Sun family.

Gu Yong recommended Zhu Ran and Zhu Huan, which was in line with Sun Quan's wishes.

Military orders were issued quickly.

Although he was shocked that Lu Xun was killed in battle, Zhu Ran did not think too much and lured the warship from Ruxukou to Fankou.

Zhu Huan came to Hefei with dozens of mounted guards to replace Zhuge Ke.

To Zhuge Ke, this was like sitting at home and having trouble come from heaven.

"I have a clear conscience, so why should I be afraid of being slandered by rumors?"

"Please ask the former general to report back to Your Majesty. I am me, and Zhuge Qiao is Zhuge Qiao. They were brothers at that time. Now we are each his own master. How can we dethrone the public for personal reasons?"

It is clear.

Zhuge Ke did not want to be replaced by Zhu Huan.

Zhu Huan had always been arrogant, but when he saw that Zhuge Ke dared to disobey orders, he immediately became angry: "Zhuge Ke, do you dare to disobey orders?"

Zhuge Ke was already angry, but seeing Zhu Huan showing off his power here, he was equally unkind: "I am loyal to your majesty, and I am your majesty's son-in-law, how can I disobey you?"

"On the other hand, since you are here to replace me, why did you bring dozens of cavalry to Hefei? Do you think you can garrison Hefei with just these dozens of cavalry?"

Zhu Huan snorted: "I took over from you, and your soldiers will naturally be my soldiers. Do you still want to take the soldiers away?"

Zhuge Ke sneered: "Zhu Huan, even if you are a former general, you cannot break Jiangdong's rules. My soldiers are my soldiers and they cannot become your soldiers."

Jiangdong is a tribal system. Zhu Huan will not be able to command Zhuge Ke's troops just because he is a former general and his official is older than Zhuge Ke.

Zhuge Ke's soldiers were raised by Zhuge Ke himself. For this purpose, Zhuge Rong funded Zhuge Ke with a lot of money, food and weapons.

It is precisely because of this special unit system that Sun Quan's 100,000-strong army only looks intimidating, with more than enough defense but not enough attack.

Defense is because the interests are consistent, so Sun Quan almost wins all the defensive battles.

Attacking is different.

Everyone wants to preserve their strength, so cohesion naturally deteriorates.

And now.

Zhu Huan wanted to take this opportunity to seize Zhuge Ke's Buqu, which Zhuge Ke could not tolerate.

"Zhuge Ke, do you really want to disobey me? Next time I come, I will bring the imperial edict." Zhu Huan's voice suddenly rose.

Zhuge Ke tightened his grip on his sword.

The deputy general advised in a low voice: "General, a good man will not suffer the loss of the moment. Instead of arguing with Zhu Huan here, it is better to go back to find the princess."

Zhuge Ke reacted instantly.

Not everyone can mess with my fierce wife.

Zhuge Ke's tribe was taken away, which was also humiliating for Sun Luban.

Thinking of this, Zhuge Ke stopped arguing and asked the deputy general to hand over the tiger seal and ribbon: "Zhu Huan, my soldiers are used to luxury. You'd better prepare more money, food, gold and silk."

"If you can't afford it, just send someone to report it, and I will lend you some money, food, gold, and silk."

Zhu Huan snorted: "Zhuge Ke, I don't need you to teach me how to lead troops!"

Zhuge Ke left Hefei and ordered his guards: "Go to Zhuge Rong immediately and ask him to inquire about Jingzhou's intelligence. I want to know how Lu Xun was defeated!"

Although he was deprived of military power, what Zhuge Ke cared about most was Zhuge Qiao in Jingzhou.

One on two, he could kill Lu Xun. Zhuge Qiao's ability to use troops made Zhuge Ke frightened and a little more confused at the same time.

Zhuge Qiao's reputation is getting bigger and bigger, but Zhuge Ke's reputation is getting smaller and smaller.

In fact, Zhuge Ke was temporarily deprived of military power because of Zhuge Qiao.

This made Zhuge Ke quite unconvinced.

While Jiangdong was panicking to deal with Jingzhou's army, the good news also reached Hongnong.

After Liu Bei gave the order to Zhuge Qiao in Jingzhou, he secretly stationed troops in Hongnong and moved a large amount of money and grain to stockpile Hongnong.

The one who came to report the victory was Ma Bing, Ma Liang's son.

Looking at the good news in his hand, Liu Bei's hands were trembling, and he couldn't help but say with joy in his voice: "Bosong, you are truly my Han Xin! My uncle is here, let's beat the drum and gather the generals!"

The drums started beating.

General Guan Yu, general Ma Chao, general Zhang Fei, general Zhao Yun, former general Wu Yi, left general Wu Ban, right general Huang Quan, rear general Wei Yan, as well as military advisors offering wine to Fazheng, military advisors Guo Youzhi and Qin Mi , Yang Yi and other civil and military officials arrived one after another.

"See Your Majesty!"

All the civil and military officials shouted in unison.

Liu Bei handed the good news to Guo Youzhi and asked him to read it in public.

Guo Youzhi glanced at the good news and took a deep breath.

Zhang Fei couldn't hold back his temper: "Guo Youzhi, stop reading and read quickly."

Guo Youzhi took a deep breath: "At the end of May in the sixth year of Zhangwu, Zhuge Qiao, the general who assisted the Han Dynasty, beheaded the puppet Wu general Lu Xun in the Han River, and also beheaded his generals Han Dang, Pan Zhang, Quan Cong and more than 60 people. , captured more than 100 generals such as Xu Sheng and Ding Feng, and captured more than 40,000 Jiangdong soldiers. "

"In order to demonstrate the benevolence of His Majesty the Han Dynasty, and also considering the lack of money and food to support him, the General Fu Han only left more than 10,000 sergeants and important generals in Jingzhou, and the rest of the sergeants were released to Jiangdong."

"In this battle, Jiangdong will no longer threaten the Han Dynasty within ten years."

"Cao Xiu and Man Chong in Yuzhou do not dare to leave Yuzhou without permission anymore. Your Majesty can rest assured about the Northern Expedition!"

"In order to win over the hearts of the people of Jiangdong, please Your Majesty to issue an imperial edict to appease the people of Jiangdong."

Guo Youzhi finished reading the victory report tremblingly.

After he finished speaking, the whole place fell silent.

Although the victory report did not mention how many Jiangdong soldiers were killed, more than 60 people including Lu Xun, Han Dang, Pan Zhang, Quan Cong, etc. were killed, and more than 100 people including Xu Sheng, Ding Feng, etc. were captured, and 40,000 Jiangdong soldiers were captured. The remaining people.

This means that Sun Quan's main force is almost wiped out!
Although Sun Quan still has troops and horses in Jiangdong, it would be good if the remaining troops and horses can hold the dangerous pass.

Sun Quan no longer has any chance to get involved in Jingzhou!
Not only that, Zhuge Qiao also asked for an imperial edict to appease the people of Jiangdong.

The emperor of the Han Dynasty went to appease the soldiers and people of the puppet Wu.

This is killing someone, but it also hurts the heart!

"happy!"

"happy!"

"happy!"

"This boy Bo Song has made such great achievements in Jingzhou!"

"Second brother, my good second brother! Do you want to consider letting my daughter be Bo Song's equal wife?"

Zhang Fei roared loudly like a tiger and leopard.

However, this change of topic almost caused Guan Yu to tear off his beautiful beard.

"Yide, your daughter has been betrothed to Adou!" Guan Yu held his head high, and the joy in Danfeng's eyes could not be concealed.

If it weren't for Guan Yu's arrogant nature and his inability to speak directly to Zhang Fei like this, Guan Yu would have had to set up dozens of wedding banquets and then say to all the guests, "Guan's son-in-law has made a meritorious service again!"

Zhang Fei waved his hand and said: "The eldest daughter is betrothed to Adou, and I also have a younger daughter!"

Guan Yu narrowed his eyes: "Adou regards Bosong as his brother. If you betroth your younger daughter to Bosong, do you want Adou to call Bosong your brother again?"

Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment, and then quickly realized: "Everyone has his own business! It's out of the way!"

After a pause, Zhang Fei turned to look at Liu Bei again: "Brother, what do you think? Bo Song is such an excellent son-in-law, we cannot let the second brother have it all to himself!"

Liu Bei raised his hand and said, "Yide, your daughter doesn't have to worry about getting married. Why are you so anxious?"

Zhang Fei put his hands on his hips: "Why am I not in a hurry? Brother, you don't know, the threshold of the prime minister's family has been stepped on several times by matchmakers."

"The three princes, nine ministers, and wealthy families are all vying to give Bosong their daughters, and some even shamelessly want to give their daughters to Bosong as a slave."

"How shameless!"

"Fa Xiaozhi, why are you laughing?"

"Don't think that I don't know. Some time ago, you asked your daughter to go to the Prime Minister's wife frequently to learn cooking skills. Don't think that I don't know what you are planning."

Fazheng's smile suddenly stopped and he argued forcefully: "General Chariot and Cavalry, you misunderstood. My daughter really went to learn cooking."

"I think the jujube cake made by the Prime Minister's wife for the Prime Minister is very delicious, and I want my daughter to learn from it."

"What's all the fuss about?"

Zhang Fei said contemptuously: "Fa Xiaozhi, Bo Song's favorite food is the jujube cake made by the prime minister's wife. You really think I'm stupid! Why don't you let your wife learn it if you want to eat it?"

Fazheng lowered his face and spoke solemnly, and said to Gongshou: "If Cao Rui learns that Lu Xun has been defeated, he will most likely send more troops to Yuzhou."

"Although Bo Song defeated Lu Xun, his losses must have been considerable, and there were many things to deal with after the war."

"If Cao Rui increases his troops in Yuzhou, Bosong will have to send troops to Nanyang to resist."

"Your Majesty, the top priority is to discuss the Northern Expedition."

Seeing that Fazheng had changed the topic, Zhang Fei was so angry that he pulled Guan Yu aside to discuss in a low voice.

Guan Yu couldn't resist, so he could only say: "Bosong and Yinping are in love, so why do you force your daughter in? If Bosong and Yinping don't object, I won't object either."

Zhang Fei chuckled: "Second brother, this is what you said!"

After a short period of commotion, Liu Bei's expression gradually returned to seriousness: "Everyone, Jingzhou is free from worries. I want to fight back to Zhuojun, will you help me?"

All the generals were stunned.

Liu Bei asked Liu Chan to supervise the country and proclaimed himself the general of the country. In essence, it was no different from passing the throne to Liu Chan.

For Liu Bei, being emperor in Chang'an was far less than sweeping the world and returning to his hometown with honor.

Liu Bei would rather be Liu Chan's general than sit on the dragon throne in Chang'an and sigh when he can return to Zhuojun.

With Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang here, Liu Bei didn't worry that no one would handle government affairs.

Now that the opportunity of the Northern Expedition came again, Liu Bei just wanted to kill and maim Cao Pi and Cao Rui and his son, and then lead his troops back to Zhuojun, returning to his hometown where he had been away for decades.

All civil and military affairs.

Zhang Fei's reaction was the most intense.

Liu Bei's hometown is in Zhuojun, and Zhang Fei's hometown is also in Zhuojun.

Fighting back to Zhuojun is also Zhang Fei's dream.

"Brother wants to fight back to Zhuojun, and I am willing to be the vanguard!" Zhang Fei said with fierce fighting spirit.

Guan Yu also said solemnly: "I met my brother in Zhuojun. My brother wants to go back to Zhuojun, how can I not go!"

"I would like to be a pioneer for my brother!"

Whether they are generals or cavalry generals, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are both dead soldiers and brothers who are willing to advance for Liu Bei.

Liu Bei is going to Zhuojun, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei will never back down!
Although this was not the first time Liu Bei asked, Zhao Yun was equally excited: "Yide, Zhuojun is too far away, so let me give up the vanguard first."

"Your Majesty, I am willing to be the vanguard to capture Changshan and Jizhou for your Majesty!"

The other generals also swore an oath.

Liu Bei was overjoyed and stood up with his sword drawn: "Qin Mi, quickly send a message to the Prime Minister of Chang'an. I will swear to the Northern Expedition!" (End of this chapter)
