Lu Xun continued to add fuel to the fire and said:"Although there are more than 10,000 troops in Linyuan City now, there has been no fighting in the four counties of Jingnan for a long time, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers is not high. If the prefect defends Linyuan, it will be difficult to resist the 50,000 barbarians. Soldiers!"
Lu Xun's words touched Dao Jin Xuan's heart.
My family knows their own affairs, not to mention the other three counties in Jingnan, the soldiers in Wuling County alone are neglected in training, and there are no generals in the city, so their combat effectiveness is really not very good.
Because there have been basically no wars in the four counties of Jingnan over the years, the comfortable environment makes it easy for people to relax.
If you don't agree with Lu Xun, I'm afraid that barbarians will attack the city in a few hours, and it won't be long before the city is destroyed and people are killed. By then it will be too late to say anything.
In fact, in Jin Xuan's heart, it didn't matter to him whether he followed Liu Biao or Sun Quan. He was still the governor of Wuling anyway.
But now that 50,000 barbarians were outside the city, he had to think about himself and get through this hurdle first.
Gong Zhi had followed Jin Xuan for many years, and by looking at Jin Xuan's face, he knew that he was moved, so he hurriedly said:"No, sir! The dispute between Jingzhou and Jiangdong is an internal battle within the Han family. If they form an alliance with the Wuxi barbarians, that is If you collude with foreign tribes, you will be stigmatized!"
Lu Xun laughed and said,"Gong Zhizhi is wrong! Jin Taishou only needs to make a verbal agreement with the barbarians, and there is no need to formally form an alliance. Moreover, Jin Taishou's move can also Protecting the safety of the people of Linyuan can be said to serve multiple purposes with one stone."
"This makes sense! Even if I don’t think about myself, I still want to think about the people of Linyuan!"
Jin Xuanyi spoke righteously. After a pause, he raised his hands and said to Lu Xun:"As long as the envoy can persuade the prefects of Lingling and Guiyang counties, I, Jin Xuan, will obey the orders of Marquis Wu."
"Please rest assured, Governor Jin! Lu Xun smiled slightly and said,"But this requires a small favor from the prefect."
Jin Xuan asked:"Your Majesty, please tell me, I will do my best.""
Lu Xun smiled and said:"Please write a letter to the two prefects of Lingling and Guiyang, sir, and then send someone to contact the prefects of these two counties with the official document from Wu Hou and your letter.
Jin Xuan asked hurriedly:"What about Han Xuan, the governor of Changsha?" Lu
Xun chuckled and said:"As long as the three counties unite and add the power of the barbarian soldiers, when the four armies unite, Han Xuan will have to agree even if he doesn't agree.""
"Your Majesty is absolutely right."Jin Xuan nodded, then changed his subject and asked,"But what should we do with the 50,000 barbarian soldiers outside the city? We can't let them enter the city.
A chill flashed in Lu Xun's eyes, and then he laughed and said,"That's not necessary. The barbarians don't know etiquette. Entering the city will only disturb the people." However, the prefect still wanted to show his kindness and provide them with 10,000 to 20,000 shi of grain to fill their bellies.
Jin Xuan frowned and said,"One or twenty thousand dan is a bit too much. The granary in Linyuan City only has 70,000 dan of grain.""
"The prefect can ask the powerful people in Linyuan City to appease the barbarians by just asking for some food. I believe these powerful people will not refuse to agree. Lu Xun reminded
"This is a good suggestion. I will send someone to take care of it immediately."Jin Xuan nodded quickly.
Gong Zhi on the side sighed secretly, remembering that Jin Xuan's ancestors were Xiongnu, and couldn't help thinking: Are they really not from my race?
Lu Xun convinced Jin Xuan, and took a few followers, saying goodbye and returning to the barbarian army. After a while, they arrived at the entrance of the camp.
Through the entrance of the camp, Lu Xun saw the barbarian soldiers staggering around, looking very lazy. There was no one guarding or patrolling outside the camp. It was said to be a military camp, but there was no one there. The military camp looked like a pile of mud with no structure.
Lu Xun thought in his mind that only ten thousand Jiangdong elites could wipe out these barbarians.
"If Jin Xuan saw the appearance of these barbarian soldiers, he would probably regret it immediately."Lu Xun sighed in his heart, and then walked towards the camp.
Since the leaders of the five major tribes all accepted Sun Quan's canonization and respected Lu Xun very much, the ordinary barbarian soldiers were also in awe. He looked at Lu Xun.
There was a strange smell in the barbarian camp. Lu Xun quickly covered his mouth and nose, quickened his pace, and soon came to a huge tent. The barbarian soldiers from the five major tribes were in five different places. The huge tent in the middle was used as a meeting hall.
After Lu Xun walked in, he saw the five barbarian leaders eating barbecue and drinking wine stolen from the Han people. There was a Han man beside him. Women as companions.
The five Han women all had forced smiles, but deep in their eyes, there was a hint of deep fear.
After all, in their eyes, these ugly and rough-looking barbarians, with savage and vulgar behaviors, were simply no different from wild beasts.
"Haha, the messenger is back! Has the prefect of the city agreed? If not, this general will lead an army to attack Linyuan City!"Shamoke laughed heartily. With his disheveled hair and beast-like body shape, he really looked like a Yaksha evil spirit.
Now Samoke is General Wu Shui, so he likes to call himself General.
"Generals, there is no need to worry. Jin Xuan, the prefect of Wuling, has promised to raise troops to respond to the Marquis of Wu, and will also give us some food as a gift. Lu Xun said lukewarmly
"We are waiting for an army of 50,000 to approach the city. How can he, a small governor, refuse to agree?"Xiangmu also laughed loudly. He seemed to have seen that he could be promoted to a high position and live in a luxurious house like the Han people.
Samoko said in a rough voice:"Mr. Messenger, what should we do next? Lu
Xun said calmly:"After getting the food, you all immediately broke up camp and went to Zhaoling to threaten Liu Du, the prefect of Lingling.""
Zhaoling is located in Changsha County, but it is close to Lingling. Lu Xun's move was a demonstration to Liu Du.
Shamoko nodded and said,"We will do whatever your Excellency says. Lu
Xun chuckled and said,"Generals, you are very determined. When the matter is completed, I will definitely go to the Lord Wu to express my gratitude for your hard work.""
Shamoke chuckled and said:"Your Majesty Messenger, since we are already generals of Jiangdong, we will ask Marquis Wu to grant us a marriage to a woman from the Jiangdong noble family."
The Wuxi people had many trade relations with the Han people, so they knew that gentry women were noble and could not be married by ordinary people.
Therefore, after discussion, the five people all felt that since they were noble generals, they should naturally marry gentry women in order to show their status.
"Generals, there is no need to worry, everything will be settled once everything is done." Lu Xun said, but he was sneering in his heart. Are you barbarians worthy of marrying the daughter of a noble family?
As the saying goes: there are no nobles in the upper class, and no nobles in the lower class.
Commoners and nobles are two classes. If a commoner wants to marry a noble woman, he must not marry a noble woman. To be able to rise to a high position by virtue of ability, otherwise the resistance in the middle would be huge.
Not to mention, the Han people always looked down on these barbarians.
Lu Xun didn't want to stay with these barbarian leaders any longer. After giving a few instructions, he turned around and returned to his camp.
