Farmer of Shu Han

"Where is Sun Quan now?"

Knowing that Sun Quan had entered Chaohu, Wang Ling, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately led an army, set off from Shouchun, and went south to support Hefei Xincheng.

Hefei New Town is built on Jiming Mountain, and two large water streams happen to originate here.

Although the origins of these two streams are in this area, their flow directions are just opposite.

One is from north to south, pouring into Chaohu Lake, which is called Shishui.

After Sun Quan led the army into Chaohu Lake, he could go upstream along the Shishui and came to the foot of Hefei New City.

The other one flows from south to north, flows through Shouchun, and flows into Huai River, which is called Feishui.

Wang Ling of Shouchun can also lead the army against the fat water and support Hefei New City.

Even if the boat masters of Wu State are much stronger and faster than those of Wei State.

But the defenders of the new city can hold out for three or four days at most, which is enough to support the arrival of Shouchun's army.

It has to be said that Manchong's vision in choosing the location of the new city was indeed unique.

But this time, it was unknown whether Wang Ling's support was too fast or Sun Quan's march was too slow.

Wang Ling has led the army to Hefei for two days, and even the fortifications at the foot of Jiming Mountain have almost been built, but there is still no sign of Sun Quan.

"To the governor, according to the spies, Sun Quan has been staying in Xiaoyaojin these days, and seems to be gathering troops."

"Wu Kou's large-scale attack this time, the army did not gather for a while, which makes sense."

There are a few more concerns:

"Captain, Sun Quan's delay in arriving, could it be fraudulent?"

Wang Ling smiled coldly:

"Even if he is cheating, can he still bypass Hefei and Lu'an?"

Now he led the army to Hefei, forming a corner with Lu'an.

No matter which direction Sun Quan's main attack is, they can echo each other.

Although Wen Qin, the prefect of Lu'an, was at odds with him, Wen Qin was considered a loyal minister of the Great Wei.

Wang Ling believes that he will not abandon the overall situation because of personal grievances.

Besides, it is me, not Wen Qin, who controls the army now.

Even if Wen Qin is passive and idle, there is no need to worry too much.

To aid or not to aid, when to aid, how to aid, the initiative lies with oneself and not with others.

After the war, he could even go to the imperial court to prove that Wenqin was indeed not suitable for guarding the border, and if he asked the imperial court to recall him, his wish would be fulfilled.

Of course, if Wenqin is not too stupid, then he should guard Liuan and not give himself this chance.

"As for the delay in Sun Quan's arrival," Wang Ling sneered, "Isn't that normal?"

"When Lu Xun attacked Lu'an, Sun Quan personally led the army into Chaohu to attack Hefei to support him. What happened?"

"Man Boning just sent people to pretend to be aggressive in the Chaohu and Shishui areas, so that Sun Quan would not move forward."

"As a result, Lu Xun had to face the danger of being cut off from the rear, and missed the great opportunity to capture Lu'an in vain."

Speaking of this, the sneer on Wang Ling's face became even more serious:

"The land of Hefei may have already become a hurdle that Sun Quan couldn't overcome."

"Especially in the past when he was killed by Zhang Wenyuan, if he didn't hang around when he arrived in Xiaoyaojin, I think it's not normal."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone on the left and right laughed.

Sun Quan repeatedly attacked Hefei, and Hefei moved to a new city. It stands by the mountains and is no longer on the edge of Chaohu Lake as before, which is conducive to the development of the Wu people's boat division.

The great Wei Jingqi couldn't cross the river, so could the Wu people's boat division be able to go on land to attack the city?

If they want to attack Hefei New City, they must abandon the ship and land.

Great Wei Jingqi, when was he afraid of the Wu people on land?

"Pass down the order to step up the expansion of the camps around Hefei and dig more trenches. If Sun Quan does not come, we will not stop for a day."

"Even if Sun Quan brings over 100,000 people, I'd like to see how he captures Hefei."

"Here!"

As the main force of the Wu army, Sun Quan was still lingering at the entrance where the water was poured into Chaohu Lake, while Zhuge Ke, who was a partial division, was marching quickly.

He received part of the troops from Stone City, including the student army from the Han Dynasty.

Then without stopping for a moment, he directly led the fleet up the Wanshui.

After walking a section of the waterway, he disembarked at a certain place, and led his army through the stone pavilion, trailer, and Jiashi with ease, and entered Shu County in the territory of Wei State.

At this time, Shu County was already an abandoned city.

Because when Zhuge Ke first came to Wankou to station troops, he took advantage of the unpreparedness of Wei State and captured Shu County, plundering the people of Wei State and returning.

After these years of management, Zhuge Ke's soldiers crossed the border repeatedly, forcing Wei Guo not to move the people on the border into the interior, away from the border.

So the area around Shu County was already considered a no-man's land.

This kind of thing is already commonplace on the border of Wei and Wu on the side of the big river.

Zhuge Ke was familiar with the terrain in this area, so he let the rushing army rest for a while, and then sent scouts to go north.

After confirming that there was no Wei army intercepting in the north, Zhuge Ke immediately ordered the army to pull out of the camp and go straight to Lu'an.

In just three days, Wu Jun had already arrived at the city of Lu'an.

"Siege the city, logging!"

Although Zhuge Ke is headstrong, it has to be said that he is indeed talented.

Over the years, he has been training troops and farming in Wankou.

At this time, the soldiers below received the military order and immediately followed the order in an orderly manner.

In order not to follow in the footsteps of Lu Xun back then, Zhuge Ke also specially sent people to set up a camp in the north to prevent the Wei army from coming from the north.

At the same time, troops were sent to expel the native people in the north of Lu'an City, and they were not allowed to leak any news to the Wei army who might come over.

"This is not right!"

Luo Xian, Fu Qian and others who followed in the army had a small camp independently.

At night, Fu Qian discussed with Luo Xian:

"When I came from Stone City, I paid special attention to it. This time the Wu people will go to battle, there may be no less than 100,000 people, and the supplies carried by their fleet are immeasurable."

"Mr. Ma also said that the people of Wu stationed all the food and grass supported by our big men in Stone City, just to attack Wei thieves this time."

"Anyway, this time the Wu people can be said to be mobilizing the army. Zhuge Yuanxun (Zhuge Ke) marched like this, isn't it a bit reckless?"

What Zhuge Ke led was a partial division, too aggressive and out of touch with the main force, and would be easily taken advantage of by the enemy at that time.

"It stands to reason that Sun Quan has to gather an army at Chaohu Lake before he can attack the city. Based on the current distance, unless Sun Quan is in such a hurry as Zhuge Ke."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid I might not be able to reach the city of Hefei now."

Luo Xian should be more cautious, he nodded in agreement with Fu Qian's statement, and then said:

"But then again, Zhuge Ke can be regarded as the leader of the generation of Wu Guo's young man, and he is more like a teacher than a teacher."

"Although this statement is exaggerated, but I heard that he has guarded Wankou over the years and has made many military exploits. If the rumors are true, this person may indeed be a talented person."

"He is doing this now, but he doesn't know if he is doing it on purpose or in a hurry to make meritorious service?"

Fu Chen pondered for a moment and said:

"I think the Wu people's actions are probably deceitful."

Hearing this, Luo Xian frowned: "Oh?"

"Think about it, although we came here with the Wu people this time, it is impossible for them to let us go into battle. They just let us follow them to practice ships."

"According to this reason, Zhuge Ke will not put us in danger, unless they don't care about those people who are still learning how to ride and fight."

Fu Chen analyzed in a nutshell:

"If not, why not let us go to Chaohu Lake, where there will be more boating opportunities, and it will be safer."

Luo Xian sighed:

"It's a pity that we have no way of knowing Wu Jun's secret."

"It's good to deduce it..."

"Right……"

This time, the student battalion has been following behind, saying that they are practicing the art of sailing.

But after coming ashore from Wanshui, they have been regarded as a logistics army, urging the civilian husband and auxiliary soldiers to transport food to the front.

This is also expected. Since they can't go to battle, instead of sending them to watch the battle, it's better to put them behind to transport food.

Unexpectedly, after a few days, Luo Xian and Fu Qian felt that something was wrong.

"Why is there so much food and grass?"

"Besides, the Wu army has been continuously advancing to the front. In the past few days, there may be tens of thousands of them?"

Luo Xian and Fu Qian looked at each other and said in unison:

"Mingxiu Plank Road!"

"Crossing Chencang secretly!"

At this time, Zhuge Ke, who was stationed at the foot of Lu'an City on horseback, watched the soldiers encircle Lu'an City tightly, with a smile on his face.

I saw him raise his whip and drink:

"Pass down the order and attack the city!"

Although the siege equipment was not fully prepared, it did not prevent him from testing the defense situation in the city first.

In contrast, Wen Qin, who was standing on the tower of Lu'an City, had a slightly dignified expression on his face.

For the always arrogant him to show such a look, it can only show that the situation has exceeded his imagination.

"The people of Wu are cheating! This is not partiality at all. Wu Kou's real purpose is Lu'an!"

Although I don't know what's going on in Hefei, but from the news that came into the city before the siege, it can be seen that Sun Quan's wandering in Chaohu Lake was intentional at all.

After figuring this out, Wen Qin's heart tightened.

He looked heavily at Wu Jun who was gathering to attack the city. He knew that Wu Kou was testing.

So Wen Qin let the deputy guard here, and he turned around and went down the tower, rode on his horse, and ran to the east gate.

Obviously, Wu Kou's focus is on the South Gate, where the troops are much thinner.

"Come on! Open the city gate!"

"Beat the drum!"

Wen Qin ordered Chang Shi to lead the army to guard the city, and he personally led an elite cavalry army and rushed out of the city.

Wu Jun had just completed the siege, especially on the east side, where he hadn't even completed the most basic camp.

Not to mention that it never occurred to the defenders in the city to rush out on their own initiative.

"Fix formation, formation formation!"

Although some Wu Jun generals reacted and shouted loudly.

But what Wen Qin led was Jingqi, and as soon as he left the city, he immediately urged the horse to speed up, giving Wu Jun no time to react.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of fine riders came up with their guns raised.

A group of Wu troops that had just assembled had been dispersed before they had time to form an formation.

The pawns who were completely unprepared were suddenly rushed into battle by cavalry, just like paper.

Wen Qin took the lead, charging from left to right, the halberd in his hand kept dancing, and Wu soldiers gave way one after another wherever he went.

Those who failed to dodge were either stabbed to death or knocked down.

"I am Wen Zhongruo, the champion general of the Great Wei Dynasty, who dares to fight me!"

Wen Qin was tyrannical by nature, with a face full of flesh, and now that he yelled like this again, Wu Zu would not dare to come closer.

Wei Qi, who was following behind him, saw how brave his general was, and was so excited, he urged his horse and followed Wen Qin.

The west gate of Lu'an was originally surrounded by the Wu army, with few troops and no preparations, it was impossible to organize a decent counterattack.

Even if there are brave men in the army who want to raise their guns to resist, it is like a mantis holding back a car. Wen Qin's armor did not even touch Wen Qin's body, and he was blocked by the guards around him.

Several long halberds flew by, blood lines floated up, and people flew out like rags.

Wen Qin looked at the banner of the Wu army, rushed over, leaped up, held a long halberd, and struck hard.

The flagpole made of bamboo snapped and fell down.

"The general is mighty!"

All the Wei soldiers shouted loudly and their morale was high.

Wei Jun on the city wall saw Wu Jun's banner fall, and beat the drum harder and harder.

Wen Qin led the fine cavalry, rushed across the border of Wu Jun's camp, then turned around again, and rushed back again.

On Wu Jun's side, when he saw the banner fall, his courage was lost, and no one dared to stop him.

The huge camp actually made Wen Qin feel like he was in no man's land.

It wasn't until Wu Jun's soldiers scattered and fled that Wen Qin led Jingqi back into the city.

Chang Shi got down the city wall and greeted him personally at the city gate:

"General Huwei, if you break the thief with one charge, Wu Kou will be terrified!"

Wen Qin laughed and got off his horse, ignoring the blood all over his body:

"I know today that Zhang Wenyuan broke Sun Quan!"

Wen Qin was already quite famous in the army, at this time the soldiers in the city saw his bravery in defeating the enemy, and they were all greatly impressed.

Although there are many Wu Kou troops outside the city, the hearts of the soldiers in the city are finally a little more stable.

"Urgent report!"

The defeat in the west of the city soon spread to Zhuge Ke:

"Report to the general, it's not good, the Wei thief suddenly rushed out from the east gate, especially the leader of the thief, he is extremely brave."

"Our army was caught off guard. The camp at the east gate was completely destroyed, and all the camps were defeated."

"Wei thief took the opportunity to send out his cavalry to break through the encirclement to the east. Judging from the direction, he must report to Hefei."

"Um?"

Zhuge Ke was watching the first wave of Wu Jun's attack being crushed by the arrows of Wei Jun at the top of the city, and his brows were frowning.

When I heard the news again, I was immediately furious:

"Who is the leader of the East Gate? Bind him here!"

Soon, the Dongmen collar in disheveled armor will be tied up in front of Zhuge Ke by five flowers.

"I asked you to encircle the east gate. Before the army attacked the city, you defeated the bandits. This is to destroy the morale of the army. You should be subject to military law!"

"Come here, push him out and behead him! Pass it on to the battalions, whoever dares to underestimate the enemy is a role model!"

Everyone thought that this person was only subjected to more than a dozen or even dozens of military sticks, at most temporarily deprived of his post as a leader, and let him perform crimes and meritorious deeds.

I didn't expect Zhuge Ke to be so cruel.

"General, spare your life, General, spare your life!"

The guy being dragged out kept struggling and shouting loudly.

"General..."

Someone wants to stand up.

Zhuge Ke swept over coldly:

"Whoever dares to intercede will be guilty of the same crime!"

After a while, the beheaded head was brought over, and the generals felt awe-inspiring when they saw the bloody head.

Some people originally thought that if they were unable to attack, they would at worst loot the people around Lu'an, which would be considered a harvest.

But at this moment, the thought disappeared.

This Zhuge Yuanxun is not a person who talks about feelings.

When Ping destroyed Shanyue, he once said that the mountain people who came out of the mountain on their own initiative should not be hurt.

Someone just saw that a certain mountain leader pretended to surrender, and tied him up in advance to prevent him from making trouble.

Unexpectedly, in the end, he was beheaded by Zhuge Yuanxun for violating the ban.

It seems that this siege is very different from the past.
