"Thank you for leading the way, old man! Here's your reward! "Lu Xun thanked Old Li, who was leading the way.
"This, this!" What Old Li cared about now was not the golden leaf in his hand, but the scene in front of him. The soldiers who told him that Old Li was here to visit his family had now taken out their swords and sabers to attack Jiangling City.
"Huh?" Lu Xun thought that the gold leaf was not enough and asked the deputy to give him two more. But the old man still did not leave.
"Old man, don't be greedy!" The deputy was a little angry. He only led the way for a few miles and one gold leaf was enough for him to buy a few acres of land. He gave him three and still did not leave.
"Give it all to him!" Lu Xun waved his hand. Although the gold leaf was too much, Lu Xun did not care about it.
But the old man still did not leave.
"General, do you want us?" Lu Xun frowned. If the old man was just an ordinary person who had interrupted their operation, then Lu Xun would have killed him without hesitation. However, this old man was the one who had led them here. Without him, they wouldn't have been able to reach Jiangling City. Lu Xun couldn't do that. However, if the old man didn't know what was good for him, then he would have to kill him to keep his mouth shut.
"Cousin, let me do it!" Wu Mi stepped forward. "Old man, take your gold leaf and leave quickly. There is going to be a war here. Someone will die. "
"You, who are you people!" Old Li finally reacted. Old Li was a little regretful. If this was a rebel army, then he would be the sinner of Jiangling. When he went back, what would the villagers think of him? Even if others did not know, his conscience would not be at ease.
"We are the Yangzhou Navy!" Lu Xun said to Old Li.
"Yangzhou Navy? The King Of Shu?" Old Li was a little surprised.
"Yes!" Lu Xun nodded and looked at Old Li. If there was something wrong with Old Li, then he could not blame Lu Xun.
"Ah, that's great! The Yangzhou Navy is here. Are we going to be like Yangzhou? "Old Li did not show any hostility towards the Yangzhou Navy. Instead, he was happy.
Happy? Lu Xun rubbed his eyes as if he had seen wrongly. Isn't this a joke? The enemy is attacking your hometown, and you are showing a kind of joy. "What do you mean by the same as Yangzhou? “
"Taxes! Old Li said to Lu Xun. Only then did Lu Xun understand. Yangzhou's tax was only 30%, but in Jingzhou, it was 60%. For these nobles, they might be afraid of Yangzhou's attack and reshuffle their power. But for these common people, they probably couldn't wait for Yangzhou's navy to attack. That way, they could get less tax. 30%. If it was 30% tax, then Old Li's second son would have been able to get married long ago. He wouldn't need Old Li to chop wood to support his family. The commoners were just that simple. Whoever was good to the commoners, the commoners would be good to them.
"Definitely, definitely!" Lu Xun said to Old Li. He didn't expect that the lord's low taxes would have such benefits.
"You want to enter the city, right? Now is not the best time! "Old Li said to Lu Xun.
"En?" The deputy general was a little dumbfounded. What does Old Li mean?
"I used to work under General Huang. The city is generally divided into three shifts. The first shift starts at midnight and counts as the first shift. From the second shift to the second shift, it's the third shift. There are three shifts in total. If you want to enter the city, then wait until the shift change. This is the time when people are the most relaxed. This is the best time for us to enter the city!" Old Li actually used the words' we 'to say. "There is a blind spot there. Go there. We can definitely enter the city!" Old Li said.
Lu Xun couldn't help but look at Old Li. Such a humble old farmer was able to point out the blind spot of the city wall. This was not simple. Therefore, one shouldn't underestimate old people. The older they were, the more capable they were. This was because in this chaotic world, it was not easy to live to this age. If one didn't have some ability, how could one survive? Not to mention, this Old Li had fought in a war before.
With Old Li's help, Yangzhou's navy was much more convenient. Soon after, they moved from the blind spot of Jiangling city. The sky was beginning to darken.
"Captain Zhang, you are here to take over!" In the afternoon, the guards of Jiangling city had been standing on the city wall for the whole afternoon. Naturally, they were happy when they saw their comrades coming to take over. They were ready to go back and eat some hot food and drink some wine to warm up their bodies.
"Yes, I will let you go back and have a good time!" Captain Zhang said with a smile.
"Come on! How can we have a good time now! " The captain shook his head. The Han Clan Army wasn't guarding the east gate in the past. They were guarding the west gate. The west gate was located in the heart of Jing Province. Therefore, all the ships that entered Jiangling had to go through the west gate. This was a good way to go, and it was a lot more comfortable.
However, since the Wu family in Jiangling was destroyed, their Han army's treatment had plummeted. Originally, they were guarding the west gate, but now they were guarding the east gate. What were they guarding the east gate for? Guarding Huarong Dao? Those who entered the city were country bumpkins. Don't talk about profits, they didn't even have any oil left. This wasn't the saddest part. Their original two thousand brothers were also taken away. Several thousand generals were also demoted. Their Han Family Army had now become an army that their grandfather didn't love and grandma didn't love.
"Sigh, be careful with your words!" They helplessly shook their heads and prepared to take over.
"Who is it?" A group of people in front of them had already finished taking over and left. Suddenly, there was a movement.
"Did they come back and leave something behind?" Captain Zhang was a little puzzled.
When he got close, he only felt a cold light flashing, and a saber was placed on his neck.
Captain Zhang's eyes widened. "Who are you people?" Captain Zhang asked the owner of the war knife that was placed on his neck.
"Don't make a sound. You don't need to know who we are! Just don't make a sound. Otherwise, we will kill you now! Come, bring us into the city! "The owner of the war knife said coldly.
"General, it has been settled!" Soon, someone came to report.
Captain Zhang listened to the enemy's report and knew that his men were all finished.
"Let's go!" Captain Zhang trembled with fear as the people behind him bumped into him. These people were all wearing armor and had war knives in their hands. They did not look like a thief army at all. Instead, they looked like a regular army. Even the armor of the Jiangling Army could not compare to them.
Captain Zhang, who was being held hostage, quickly arrived at the city gate. "Quick, let's finish this quickly. We have to take down the city gate!" The general could not help but relax when he arrived at the city gate. As long as they entered the city and took down the city gate, they would definitely be able to catch the Jiangling Army off guard. Suddenly, he felt a pain in his stomach.
Seeing this, Corporal Zhang retracted his head and hit the general with it. Although it didn't cause much damage, Corporal Zhang managed to break free. Corporal Zhang then suddenly shouted, "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Help! Help!"
"Courting death!" The general was furious and wanted to chase after Corporal Zhang, but he was stopped by a young man on the side.
"It's too late!"
"Who is it!" The other Jiangling Army on the city wall also noticed the Yangzhou Army below. "Enemy! Enemy! Be alert!"
"Let's finish this quickly!" Lu Xun took the lead and rushed in. Because of the change of guard, the city gate was much less guarded than before. When they were attacked by the Yangzhou Army, they were stunned. By the time they reacted, the Yangzhou Army had already attacked the city gate.
"Quick, quick, quick!" When the city gate was opened, Lu Xun and a few elite soldiers stood guard. The Jiangling Army could not close the city gate even if they wanted to.
"The east gate has been broken!" Lu Xun only had less than two thousand men, but each of them were the elites of the Yangzhou Army. They had been suppressing their anger in Huarong Dao. Because of the swamp, the death of Pao Zi, and the unknown fear, they were all angry. Their hearts were already filled with dissatisfaction, but they could not do anything about Huarong Dao. When they reached Jiangling, the Jiangling Army would be unlucky.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Lu Xun knew that they could no longer hide after hearing the sounds of fighting all day, so he might as well fight his way over.
"What's the situation?" Han Wei was a very competent lieutenant. Although he used to collect protection fees at the west gate of Jiangling, it was inevitable. After all, he had to feed a group of soldiers and horses. Moreover, he had the Han Family behind him. Relying on the salary was simply a drop in the bucket. Therefore, Han Wei collected the toll.
However, when it came to the training of the soldiers and horses, as well as military affairs, they were very attentive.
When Han Wei was on duty, he would not go back to the Han Mansion. He lived on the city wall. Therefore, when the battle cries came from the city wall, Han Wei stood up and quickly put on his armor.
"What's going on? What's going on?" Han Wei quickly grabbed a Han Family soldier who ran down from the front. However, the soldier only cared about running away and did not tell Han Wei the specific situation.
"Master! Master!" The Han Family soldiers were basically the servants or private soldiers of the Han Family. Therefore, they called Han Wei Master.
"East gate! Enemy troops appeared at the east gate!"
"Enemy?" Han Wei did not want to believe it, but the battle cries were not fake.
"How many enemies are there?" Han Wei's first reaction was to know the number of enemies.
"No, I don't know!" The sky was already dark. How could they know how many enemies there were?
"Follow me and charge!" "Han Wei is about to bring his personal guards and charge over to the East City gate.
"We can't go." The guard on the side said to Han Wei. "The east gate has been breached. Master, it's useless for us to go now." Now that the sky was dark, they did not know where the enemy was. Originally, the guards at the gate could resist the enemy. Now that they did not use the gate, what if they rushed into the enemy camp?
"Go! Rely on the streets. We will retreat as we fight. Someone go inform the governor and ask him to send reinforcements. " Han Wei was worthy of being a person who understood military affairs. Knowing that the situation was hopeless, he immediately changed his plan.
"Yes!" Soon, Han Wei's order was passed out. The Han Family soldiers fought as they retreated.
"Their direction?" Han Wei gradually found a pattern. The enemy did not attack from anywhere else. Instead, they attacked from the city. Han Wei turned his head and looked behind him. Over there?
Han Wei was familiar with this direction. It was the direction of the Jiangling Governor's residence.
"What do they want to do?" Han Wei thought for a while and quickly understood. "They want to capture the leader first?"
That's right. Now, Lu Xun had this plan. He only had less than 2,000 people. Even if he was an elite, he could not fight against 10 enemies. There were at least 20,000 guards in Jiangling City. Once they were entangled, Lu Xun would be at a disadvantage. War was about the right time, right place, and right people.
Now that the sky was dark, it was very advantageous for the Yangzhou Navy. This was because they had launched a surprise attack. The enemy did not know how many soldiers and horses they had. But the sky was going to turn bright. Once the sun shone, the Yangzhou Navy would be exposed. Therefore, the Yangzhou Navy had to find a way to end the battle before dawn.
Although they had the Wu family's eldest daughter, Wu Mi, to guide them, they were only one person. How could they take care of the entire army? On the other hand, the enemy was from Jiangling City. They had lived here for decades and decades. How could they not be familiar with the Jiangling City's defenders?
Therefore, the geographical advantage was not in their hands. Now that they had launched a surprise attack, they had caught the enemy off guard. If they slowly delayed, the defenders of Jiangling City would become familiar with the enemy sooner or later. Once they calmed down, the easier it would be.
People and above! The Yangzhou Navy had less than 2,000 people. If one died, it would be one less person. Lu Xun did not have any reinforcements. It was also impossible for him to send reinforcements. The enemy had tens of thousands of soldiers. This was not the key point. The key point was that even if they attacked Jiangling, Lu Xun still had to defend Jiangling City. If they could only attack and not defend, then what was the use?
Therefore, Lu Xun needed to end the battle quickly. The prerequisite for this was to capture the king of thieves. The king of thieves in Jiangling City was the Jiangling Governor, Dong Zhi.
Wu Mi was working hard to lead the way because she wanted to kill Dong Zhi. Lu Xun also wanted to capture Dong Zhi. The cooperation between the two was very close.
"We can't let them reach the governor's mansion!" After Han Wei understood the thoughts of the Yangzhou Navy, he immediately made arrangements. At the beginning, the Yangzhou Navy would engage in a direct battle. If they could not win, then they would run. Now, it had become a head-on battle. Even if they suffered heavy losses, under Han Wei's command, the Han Army would still charge forward.
"Who is the commander of this army?! How did he discover our plan? " Lu Xun also discovered that after entering the city, the road became more and more difficult to walk. Basically, they would have to fight every ten steps. It was obvious that the commander of the Yangzhou Navy had discovered Lu Xun's plan. Moreover, this group of Jiangling Garrison was not weak. They did not look like a second-rate garrison force at all. In terms of strength, they were more than enough to be the frontline main force. Therefore, Lu Xun wanted to know who the commander was.
"Capture a tongue for me!" Lu Xun ordered his subordinates. He wanted to capture a person alive to find out who was the commander of the Jiangling Garrison.
"Yes!" "Very soon, another battle began. This time, the Yangzhou navy held back. They didn't leave no one alive. Very soon, an injured Jiangling garrison was captured.
"Tell me, whose subordinate are you?! Tell me and I will let you go! " Lu Xun asked the person who was still alive. He wanted to use a way to make the tongue speak, but who would have thought that the tongue was very stubborn.
"Bah!" The tongue directly spat out a mouthful of saliva, almost splashing it on Lu Xun's face. If Lu Xun hadn't dodged quickly, the bloody saliva would have hit his face.
"I gave you face, but you don't want it!" The deputy general wanted to kill the tongue. "General, I will capture another one for you!" Lu Xun nodded. He did not have time to waste. It was not good to interrogate the tongue. However, he did not believe that all tongues were stubborn. Eventually, someone would speak.
"Han Army?" Suddenly, Wu Mi opened her mouth.
"Miss Wu?" Seeing Wu Mi by the side, the tongue was suddenly stunned.
"You are Han Lei?" Wu Mi asked doubtfully. When she charged into Jiangling City, she found that these soldiers were very familiar. However, because it was night time, she could not see clearly. Therefore, Wu Mi was not sure.
"Miss, you did not die?" Han Lei's face was filled with joy. "That's great, that's great! The family head was worried sick about you. " This Han Lei was one of Han Wei's personal guards. He used to be Han Wei's page boy and could be considered Han Wei's trusted aide.
"You are saying that the person on the other side is brother Han Wei?" Wu Mi looked at Han Lei and was certain. Weren't the Han Army guarding the West Gate? Why would they appear at the East Gate?
"Miss, why are you here?" Han Lei did not directly answer Wu Mi's question. Instead, he asked her a question. He looked at the surrounding Yangzhou Army and said, "They, they …" Han Lei seemed to understand something.
"Han Lei, I want revenge. I want revenge for my Wu family's 184 people." Wu Mi said to Han Lei. Her face was filled with determination.
"Sigh!" Han Lei sighed. "Miss, when Master Wu was killed, our family head wanted to rescue him. However, when he arrived, the fire had already started." The Han Family and Wu Family were connected. The Wu Family was in charge of money and the Han Family was in charge of the military. Therefore, when the Wu Family was in trouble, Han Wei immediately led the Han Army to rescue them. However, they were too late.
"No need to say anything! I know everything! " Wu Mi saw Han Wei kowtowing towards the direction of the Wu Clan. This was because Wu Fan and Han Wei's father were sworn brothers. However, Han Wei's father didn't manage the family business at a very early age, so he handed over the family business to Han Wei, allowing Han Wei to take charge of the family business. However, Wu Fan and Han Wei were like foster father and foster son. Back then, Wu Mi didn't look for Han Wei because she didn't want to bring disaster to the Han Clan. After all, the Han Clan only had four thousand soldiers. Liu Pan had brought out six thousand Jing Province Cavalry and Jiangling Governor Dong Zhi's troops. The Han Clan had no chance of winning.
"Han Lei, go and tell brother Han Wei to let us go." Wu Mi said to Han Lei.
"Hm?"
"Let him go!" Lu Xun ordered his subordinates. Soon, they helped Han Lei untie the ropes on his body.
"Miss, don't be used by despicable people! Master Wu's injustice will be reported to Lord Huang Zu on your behalf. He will definitely clear Master Wu's name. "Han Lei turned around to persuade Wu Mi.
"Haha, so what if I've cleared my name? Even if I've cleared my name, do you think all 184 members of my Wu Clan will still be alive? No, no! I want revenge. A blood debt can only be repaid with blood! "Wu Mi said fiercely. "As for the despicable people you mentioned, General Lu Xun is my older cousin!" Wu Mi said to Han Lei.
"Older cousin?" Han Lei had never heard of Wu Mi having a cousin with the surname Lu.
"Go!" Wu Mi said to Han Lei. Han Lei saw that he could not persuade Wu Mi and could only leave.
"I'll only give you the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn. If your family head can't give me an answer, then I can only offend and fight!" Lu Xun said to Han Lei. Han Lei snorted and left.
"What! Mi 'er is on the other side? "Han Wei heard Han Lei's message and immediately jumped up.
"Yes, Family Head. Miss Wu is on the other side!" Han Lei said to Han Wei.
"Are you sure you didn't see the wrong person?" Han Wei asked again, unsure.
"No!" Han Lei shook him. Although Miss Wu's face was covered with ashes, Han Lei was certain that it really was Miss Wu.
"Mi 'er is fine, Mi' er is fine. That's great, that's great!" Han Wei was very excited. He cared for Wu Mi not only because they were family friends, but also because Han Wei had liked Wu Mi for a long time. Han Wei and Wu Mi were childhood sweethearts. Ever since they were young, Han Wei swore that he would protect Wu Mi for the rest of his life. When something happened in the Wu Family, Han Wei was heartbroken. Now that he knew that the person he liked was fine, he immediately smiled.
"Family Head, she has a cousin with the surname Lu! I feel that Young Miss Wu must have been deceived by someone, "Han Lei continued.
"A cousin with the surname Lu?" Han Wei already knew that the enemy was the Yangzhou Navy. Someone with the surname Lu in the Yangzhou Navy? "Are you talking about Lu Xun?" Han Wei said uncertainly.
"Yes, yes, it's Lu Xun! I think it's this person who's bewitching Miss Wu. How could he be Miss Wu's cousin! "Han Lei said to his family head.
"If that person really is Lu Xun, then he really is Mi 'er's cousin!" Han Wei suddenly remembered. In the past, the Wu Family and Lujiang's Lu Family really were relatives. But after the Lujiang Navy was destroyed by Jiangdong's Sun Ce, they lost contact. In the past few years, they heard that the Lu Family had regrouped. The most famous one was Lu Xun. He was now the commander of the Yangzhou Navy. The Yangzhou Navy had conquered the Yangtze River in one battle. Jiangdong and Jing Province's sixty thousand troops and Jing Province's forty thousand troops were all sent into the Yangtze River. In the end, they even subdued the Jiangxia Navy. No one knew that this was all planned by Zhuge Kongming. Jiangdong wouldn't say it out loud because it would be embarrassing. The only one in Jing Province who knew was Wen Pin. Now that Wen Pin was imprisoned, everyone thought that this was all done by Lu Xun. He was the one who first destroyed the Jiangdong and Jing Province's navy and then persuaded Zhuge Liang to surrender. This was really famous. It was almost comparable to Yangzhou's King Of Shu, Liu Mang's achievement of stopping Jiangdong's army of a hundred thousand at Wan Cheng. Moreover, Liu Mang at least had Wan Cheng as a defense, while Lu Xun was sent to battle on a warship. "Lu Xun? I didn't expect him to personally lead his troops here! " Han Wei couldn't help but admire Mi 'er's cousin. He didn't want to be the commander, but instead personally came here.
Han Wei had always thought that the Yangzhou navy wouldn't appear at the East Gate. Now that he thought about it, everything made sense. The Wu family had been in Jiangling for more than ten generations. Their family would naturally leave a path of retreat for themselves, and that path was Huarong Path. Once something happened, they could easily retreat through Huarong Path. If the enemy didn't have a map of Huarong Path, they could only die.
The annihilation of the Wu Clan this time was too sudden. Who knew if Liu Pan would follow the rules and directly kill everyone from the Wu Clan and burn down the Wu Clan Residence without asking any questions?
"Should I let Mi 'er go?" Han Wei's heart was conflicted. He also wanted to help Wu Mi take revenge and kill Jiangling's Governor Dong Zhi. But Han Wei alone didn't matter. There were hundreds of people in the Han family. If all of their heads fell to the ground because of Han Wei, what would Han Wei do? In the end, Han Wei still had to survive in Jiangling.
If he didn't let Wu Mi go, Han Wei would feel guilty. The Wu family and Han family had a close relationship, and Han Wei liked Wu Mi. Han Wei was stuck in a dilemma.
"Reporting! General, the enemy has sent an envoy to see you! "A guard reported to Han Wei.
"Envoy?" Han Wei froze for a moment, but he still had someone bring the envoy over.
"You are Lu Xun's envoy?" Han Wei looked at the young man in front of him.
He didn't expect the young man to shake his head with a smile.
"You're not Lu Xun's envoy?" Han Wei didn't understand. This person came from the Yangzhou navy. If he wasn't Lu Xun's envoy, then could he be Han Wei's envoy? Could there be a third person's army in this city?
"Yes and no!" The young man smiled at Han Wei. "General Han Wei, this one is Lu Xun!"
"Oh!" Han Wei subconsciously returned the greeting. Suddenly, he heard Lu Xun's name. "What? What did you say you were called? "
Han Wei asked in disbelief.
"Hehe, General Han Wei, this one is Lu Xun!" Lu Xun repeated again.
"Family Head, he really is Lu Xun!" Han Lei helped Han Wei to confirm.
"Good. Family Head, we have done a meritorious deed. If we capture this person, the Yangzhou navy will collapse!" The Han Family Army said excitedly. The Yangzhou navy wanted Qin Ze to capture the king first. Similarly, as long as the Han Family Army captured Lu Xun, they would win the battle without fighting.
"Hehe!" Lu Xun didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at the Han Family Army's commander, Han Wei.
"Stand down!" Han Wei didn't listen to his subordinate and directly captured Lu Xun. He looked at Lu Xun. "General Lu, are you not afraid that I will capture you?" “
"I am!" Lu Xun said bluntly.
"En?" Han Wei thought that Lu Xun would say something heroic. Who knew that he would only say one word.
"But I know that General Han Wei won't!" Lu Xun continued to say to Han Wei.
"Why?"
"Because General Han Wei can't even protect himself. If you capture me, you will at most be my companion in the prison!" Lu Xun said to Han Wei.
"Bullshit!" Han Lei shouted at Lu Xun, "Our general can defeat your Yangzhou Navy without a fight if he takes you down. Then he can take your head to claim credit. He will definitely be appreciated by the Prefecture Overseer!"
"He won't be appreciated, but he will definitely die!" Lu Xun continued to say.
"What do you mean?" Han Wei was not a fool. Although he admired Lu Xun for daring to come alone, he also knew that Lu Xun wouldn't kill him without any assurance.
"General Han, although I can't capture Jiangling City, its East Gate is already gone. Our Yangzhou navy has already entered the city. Who will take the blame for this?" Lu Xun smiled and said to Han Wei.
"The fault of breaking the city?" Han Wei frowned. Jiangling was the second main city of Jingzhou. Although there was no Provincial Governor's Mansion in Jiangling and the capital of Jingzhou was not here, it was still a place where Liu Biao had a backup plan. Even if he died and Xiangyang was breached, Jiangling could still leave a way out for his descendants. This was because in front of Jiangling was the scourge of the Yangtze River and behind it was the natural barrier of Huarong Road. It could be said that it was easy to defend and hard to attack. As long as the warships were sunk and blocked the waterways of the Yangtze River, even if the enemy was a million strong army, it could still be used as a fishing platform. In Jiangling, there were provisions and military equipment that could last a hundred thousand soldiers for a few years. If the enemy came in small numbers, the hundred thousand soldiers could be annihilated. If there were too many enemies, they could just hide in Jiangling City and the enemy would not be able to do anything to them. If there were too many soldiers, they would naturally need a lot of provisions. It would depend on who consumes more.
Therefore, the importance of Jiangling City in Liu Biao's mind was even more important than Xiangyang. It was an important point to ensure that the Liu family would not be destroyed. Now, the city that Liu Biao thought was indestructible had been breached. Although it was not taken by the Yangzhou Navy, it was a fact that the city gate was breached.
Who would take the blame for this? Someone would definitely be unlucky.
"If I take down General Lu, wouldn't I be able to offset the fault? Even the Yangzhou Navy's commander, haha. I believe that the Governor of Jingzhou would not blame me for my mistake and would even be promoted several times! " Han Wei looked into Lu Xun's eyes. In Liu Biao's mind, Lu Xun was definitely on the kill list. This was because the battle between the Yangzhou Navy, the Jingzhou Navy, and the Jiangdong Navy was a slap in the face. Why did the Jingzhou Navy want to practice with the Jiangdong Navy? They even wanted to give Jiang Xia to Jiangdong Sun Ce. It must be known that Jingzhou and Jiangdong had a blood feud. Liu Biao did this to get back some face. A face that belonged to a man's dignity. However, not only did he not get back his face, it was even more swollen.
If Han Dang sent Lu Xun's head to Liu Biao, he would be overjoyed. Then, Han Dang would not be guilty and would even be rewarded.
"Haha, General Han Wei, you are too optimistic!"
"What do you mean?"
"General Han Wei, let me ask you. If you take Lu Xun's head, will you directly hand it over to your Governor?" Lu Xun asked with a smile.
Han Wei frowned. Even if he took down Lu Xun, he should first hand Lu Xun's head to Governor Dong Zhi. Then, Dong Zhi would hand it over to Liu Biao. Or, he would hand it over to the Jingzhou Army's Liu Pan, who would then hand it over to Liu Biao.
"Governor Dong Zhi, Military Advisor Liu Pan! General Han Wei, are you familiar with these two? "Lu Xun deliberately asked Han Wei.
Han Wei was very familiar with Governor Dong Zhi and Second Young Master Liu Pan. Of course, he was familiar with them. In the past, the Han Family and the Wu Family were enemies of Governor Dong Zhi. How could he not be familiar with Dong Zhi? As for Second Young Master Liu Pan, he was now Dong Zhi's master. It could be said that the two were in cahoots, which led to the destruction of the Wu Family.
"With the two of them, they will definitely ask for credit for General Han Wei!" Lu Xun continued to speak. This sentence was the complete opposite of what he meant by asking for credit. If it fell into the hands of Governor Dong Zhi and Second Young Master Liu Pan, Han Wei's credit would probably be reduced by half. However, Han Wei still thought that it was fine to reduce the credit by half. As long as they didn't care about his mistakes, Han Wei would at least have some credit, right?
"General, Yang Jun is back!" Someone said to Han Wei. Yang Jun was sent by Han Wei to ask for reinforcements from Governor Dong Zhi.
"Yang Jun is back?"
"General, General!" Soon, Yang Jun was brought to Han Wei's side.
"Yang Jun, what did Governor Dong Zhi say? Where are the reinforcements? " Han Wei asked Yang Jun. Although it was a stalemate, Han Wei knew that his troops were no match for the Yangzhou Navy. Once the Yangzhou Navy went all out, it would be difficult for him to resist. Moreover, there was still Wu Mi on the other side.
"Reinforcements, reinforcements have not arrived yet!" Lord Dong said that if you can't hold on for six hours, then you don't have to go back! "Yang Jun looked at Han Wei cautiously.
"Three hours, haha, haha!" What a good three hours! " When he heard Yang Jun's words, he immediately laughed out loud.
"General, Family Head?" The Captains of the Han Army all gathered around and looked at their General who seemed to be a little crazy. They were all worried.
Only Lu Xun smiled. It seemed like he was about to succeed.
"Dong Zhi, Dong Zhi is really good at scheming!" Han Wei sneered. Six hours was not a lot, but it was also not a lot. After six hours, it would be dawn. The reason why the Yangzhou Navy was able to break through the East Gate and enter Jiangling City was because they were able to catch the Jiangling Army off guard. Otherwise, it would not be so smooth. Once dawn came, the Yangzhou Navy's surprise attack would no longer be effective. At that time, they would be surrounded by the Jiangling Army.
Han Wei laughed because his Han Army would not be able to hold on for even an hour under such a high intensity battle, let alone three hours.
This Dong Zhi was really good at scheming. He wanted the Han Army and the Yangzhou Navy to wear each other out. If the Han Army destroyed the Yangzhou Navy, then the Han Army would also suffer heavy losses. At that time, it would be easy for Dong Zhi to take down Han Wei. The crime of Jiangling city being breached could be blamed on Han Wei. How could Han Wei resist?
If the Yangzhou Navy defeated Han Wei, then it would also be good. With the help of the Yangzhou Navy, Dong Zhi would be able to get rid of a big problem. It could be said that the Han Army would be doomed eternally.
Six hours later, he, Dong Zhi, would bring his men and horses to collect the fruits. It would take at most two hours to transfer troops from the west gate, north gate, and south gate, but Dong Zhi actually wanted six hours. This was simply Sima Zhao's intention, everyone on the street knew.
Han Wei was not a fool. Therefore, he could see it clearly.
"Men!" Han Wei suddenly shouted.
"Present!"
"Tie up General Lu Xun!" Han Wei ordered his subordinates.
