Back then, Sun Quan ordered Zhou Yu to wait for his army to deal with Cao Cao who was going north and south. In order to let Zhou Yu let go of his command, his Soochow army handed over the ancient ingot knife to Zhou Yu. The ancient ingot knife made the Jiangdong generals who were originally unconvinced completely obey Zhou Yu's order.

And Zhou Yu also relied on this advantage to finally lead Jiangdong to defeat Cao Cao, so now Jiangdong has a place among the overlords in the world.

Under the eyes of everyone, Sun Quan took off the Gu Ding Dao carefully, stroked the scabbard of the Gu Ding Dao with his hand, and slowly came to Lu Xun.

Lu Xun looked at Sun Quan's heavy gaze, carefully lowered his head, and waited silently for Sun Quan to speak.

"Now I canonize you as the governor of Jiangdong, and entrust you with the important task of dealing with Liu Bei. Now I will temporarily entrust you with this ancient ingot knife. If there is anyone who does not obey your order, you can directly kill them first Ask, I hope you won't let me down." Sun Quan fixed his gaze on Lu Xun in front of him, and then carefully raised the stock knife in his hand.

At this time, Lu Xun heard what Sun Quan said, and his face suddenly became extremely heavy. Then he looked at the ancient ingot knife that Sun Quan was holding in mid-air, carefully held the ancient ingot knife with both hands, and took it from Sun Quan's hand, his tone was a little bit He said to Sun Quan solemnly: "Don't worry, King Wu, I will definitely not disappoint King Wu's trust, and I will definitely guard Jiangdong and Jingzhou, and drive Liu Bei out of Jingzhou."

At this time, Zhang Zhao and Sun Jing looked at the ancient ingot knife in Lu Xun's hand, and looked at Lu Xun with some surprise on their faces, with envy in their eyes.After all, apart from Zhou Yu, Lu Xun was the second person entrusted by Sun Quan to the ancient ingot knife.

"It's not too late, you go! You must show my power in Jiangdong and let Liu Bei take a look." Sun Quan looked at Lu Xun who was holding the ancient ingot knife tightly in his hand, and suddenly felt that Zhou Yu was standing behind Lu Xun. Sun Quan At this time, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he patted Lu Xun's shoulder lightly, and said to Lu Xun in a somewhat expectant tone.

"Yes!" Hearing what Sun Quan said, Lu Xun nodded with a heavy expression on his face, then took the Tiger Talisman from Sun Quan's hand, and walked out of the mansion.

"King Wu, can you deal with Liu Bei if you trust him so much?" At this moment, Zhang Zhao, who was sitting by the side, looked at Sun Quan with a confident smile on his lips. Sun Quan asked.

Sun Quan's emerald green eyes looked at Zhang Zhao who was at the side, he laughed, and then said with a very confident tone: "Of course I believe in him. Rather than trusting him, it is better to say that I believe in Soochow. Whenever I go to Soochow When encountering danger, there will always be someone who can turn the tide, just like when Cao Cao went south, Zhou Gongjin was still able to win more with less, so I believe that the fire in Jiangdong will never go out."

At this time, Zhang Zhao and Sun Jing heard what Sun Quan said, looked at Sun Quan calmly, saw Sun Quan looking out of the mansion with full of expectation, and nodded with a serious expression.

Lu Xun got the tiger talisman and the ancient ingot knife from Sun Quan, and directly mobilized [-] soldiers and horses from Moling, and headed west in a mighty manner.

But now Liu Bei has seized the two counties of Guiyang and Wuling in one fell swoop.

"General, now that Liu Bei is leading the army under his command, he is marching toward us." At this time, a soldier cautiously came to the city and looked at Sun Heng and Zhu who were sitting in the mansion. However, he said in a hoarse tone.

"Now that Liu Bei is coming with his army, and now his army is far more than ours, we'd better stick to the city." Zhu Ran looked at Sun Heng in front of him with a serious expression, and his tone was a little heavy Said to Sun Heng.

"General Qi, there is an envoy outside to visit." At this moment, there was a sudden noise from outside, and a soldier hurried over, looking at Sun Heng and Zhu with a somewhat respectful tone. Then said.

At this time, Sun Heng was already overwhelmed by Liu Bei's affairs. Hearing such a thing, he said to the soldiers in a somewhat perfunctory tone: "Call him in."

But at this moment, an envoy slowly came to the mansion, looked at Zhu Ran and Sun Heng with a calm expression, and said in a calm tone: "The envoy under the command of the Governor paid a special visit to the two generals."

"Governor?" Zhu Ran and Sun Heng heard these words, looked at the envoy in front of them in surprise, and asked in a puzzled tone.

"The king of Wu has now appointed General Lu Xun as the new governor, and now the governor has sent me here to inform the two generals." At this moment, the envoy looked at Zhu Ran and Sun Heng's surprised expressions, and said in a tone of voice. Some calmly explained to the two of them.

"Lu Xun is just a scholar. How could they become the governor? Isn't King Wu acting recklessly?" Sun Heng's expression became extremely heavy when he heard the news, and he said angrily.

"This statement is wrong. I have had contacts with Lu Xun, and he is resourceful. King Wu appointed him as the governor, and there is also a reason for King Wu." At this time, Zhu Ran heard Sun Heng's expression of dissatisfaction, and his tone Some calmly persuaded Sun Xing.

"Then what is Lu Xun's order for sending you here? Tell me quickly." At this time, Sun Heng heard what Zhu Ran said, looked at the envoy calmly, and said in a slightly uncomfortable tone.

The envoy looked at Sun Heng's appearance, and was a little surprised in his heart. General Sun Heng said that he was right with the governor.

"The governor wants the two generals to guard Xiangyin to the death, so as to ensure that Xiangyin is not lost." The envoy looked at Sun Heng and Zhu Ran in front of him, and said calmly.

"What? He asked the two of us to guard this city to the death. Didn't he send someone to help?" Sun Heng widened his eyes when he heard the words of the envoy, and said in a tone of disbelief.

"The governor has his own plans, and the only thing I want to report for the time being is this news." The envoy looked at Sun Heng's uneasy expression, and quickly replied in a somewhat calm tone.

"Hmph! I see. Let's go." At this time, Sun Heng said to the envoy beside him angrily, and finally issued an order to expel the envoy from Xiangyin.

And Lu Xun brought his army to Jiangxia City by water, and then went directly down the Xiangjiang River to the vicinity of Changsha City.

At this time, following Lu Xun were Han Dang, Jiang Qin, Zhu Heng, Quan Cong, Ding Feng and other generals.

At this time, Lu Xun brought his army to the edge of Changsha City, and began to set up camp, and ordered his generals to come to the barracks to discuss matters.

"General, hurry up and send troops to defeat Liu Bei." Jiang Qin sat down and looked at Lu Xun who was sitting on the main seat, and said in a somewhat excited tone.

"It's still too early to send troops! Now you follow my order and divide your troops to garrison in various places. When the time comes, follow my order and make plans." Lu Xun heard such words, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his tone was a little bit Said calmly.

Chapter 9 Eleven: Liu Bei's Complacency

Lu Xun did not concentrate his soldiers in one place, but scattered his soldiers in various places, and then formed a siege, and then forehanded at various traffic arteries.

At this time, Liu Bei led his troops to surround Xiangyin City guarded by Sun Heng and Zhu Ran. Looking at Zhu Ran and Sun Heng with a heavy expression above the city, the corners of Liu Bei's mouth were exposed. A smug smile, and then said to the two people above the city with a somewhat cold tone: "Now you have been surrounded by the army under my command, if you are sensible, surrender quickly."

"Huh! Liu Bei, if you have the ability, attack it. Don't use your words to gain advantage under the city." Sun Heng listened to Liu Bei's words, looked at Liu Bei's subordinate Da Jin who was closely following him, and gritted his teeth. With a somewhat cold tone, he shouted to Liu Bei below.

"Come on, attack the city!" Liu Bei's face suddenly became a little furious after hearing what Sun Heng said, and he shouted at his soldiers with a bit of a vicious tone, I will give you a chance now if you don't surrender, Then don't blame me for being ruthless.

The soldiers following Liu Bei heard Liu Bei's shout, and their complexions suddenly became a little heavy. Then, under the leadership of their respective generals, they frantically attacked the city.

"Shoot the arrows!" Sun Heng, as the leader of the Sun Wu clan, saw so many troops under Liu Bei attacking towards him as an employee. Although his face was a little nervous and panicked, he soon recovered. , shouted to the soldiers under him in a somewhat eager tone.

Following Sun Heng's order, Soochow's troops boarded the city one after another, and then prepared their bows and arrows to shoot frantically at the attacking enemy troops below.

"Shh! Shh! Shh!" Accompanied by the sound of breaking wind, countless bows and arrows came from the sky, shooting towards Liu Bei's army who was fighting towards the deadly red like rain.

"Raise the shield!" Feng Xi, who was leading his soldiers to attack the city at this moment, saw the bows and arrows shot down from the sky, his face suddenly became a little heavy, and then he shouted anxiously to his soldiers who were frantically rushing towards the city road.

Following Feng Xi's order, there were shields in Liu Bei's army at this time, and the soldiers raised their shields to block the arrow feathers shot down from the sky, while those soldiers who hadn't had time to defend themselves were shot The arrow fell on the battlefield.

At this time, Liu Bei, who was riding on the horse, looked at his soldiers lying under the city, and suddenly his face became a little ugly, and then he shouted at the general beside him in a hurry: "Ladder? What about the ladder?"

"Your Majesty, the ladder will be here soon, and then we can attack the city with all our strength." Ma Liang, who was following Liu Bei on the expedition, looked at Liu Bei with an eager expression, and gently comforted Liu Bei.

"Report! Report!" And at this moment, a person hurriedly came to Liu Bei, and shouted to Liu Bei in a somewhat eager tone.

At this time, Liu Bei looked at the heavy expression on the face of his spy, stroked his beard, and asked the spy in front of him with some doubts: "Your Majesty, according to the news we just spied, Sun Quan appointed Lu Xun as the governor. Now I have gathered in Changsha City with 5 men under my command!"

"Lu Xun, who is this person? Ji Chang, have you heard of such a person in Soochow in Jingzhou?" Liu Bei didn't feel too heavy when he heard the news. It's not enough to have so many people under him, but when Liu Bei heard that Sun Quan appointed Lu Xun as the governor, he suddenly became curious, so he turned his gaze to Ma Liang, who had been in Jingzhou for more than ten years after all. You should have some understanding of the characters in Soochow.

"Your Majesty, I seem to have heard that this Lu Xun is a child of the Lu family in Eastern Wu. After hearing that Chen served as the master book under Lu Meng, and successfully tricked General Guan into transferring him away, is he a man from Jingzhou?"

"Lu Xun?" Liu Bei was slightly taken aback when he heard such words.This was the first time he heard the name Lu Xun, but he always felt a little flustered in his heart.

"Lu, Lu, Lu?" Liu Bei was muttering something silently at the corner of his mouth at this moment, and suddenly seemed to think of something.

As the memory reverberated, he suddenly seemed to have returned to that day in Pingyuan City almost 20 years ago.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" At this moment, Ma Liang looked at Liu Bei, as if something was wrong, stretched out his head, and asked Liu Bei cautiously.

"It's nothing, I just thought of something suddenly, but those things are all non-existent things." Hearing Ma Liang's call, Liu Bei suddenly came back to his senses, looked at Ma Liang's puzzled face, shook his head, and said in a tone Some said calmly.

"It is difficult to attack the city now. The whole army should retreat temporarily and make plans when the ladder comes." At this time, Liu Bei looked at the Soochow army on the city so tightly guarded, and looked at his subordinates The soldiers braved the arrow rain to attack the city but could not attack, and finally said in a somewhat helpless tone.

After hearing what Liu Bei said, Ma Liang nodded with a serious expression.What Liu Bei said is indeed very correct. If you attack the city like this now, it will be your own army that will lose in the end. It is better to wait until the ladder arrives before attacking is the best attack.

"Ming Jin!" Ma Liang quickly whispered to the soldiers beside him that he had listened to what he had said, and hurriedly called Jin to withdraw.

Finally, Liu Bei led his army slowly withdrew ten miles away from the city and set up camp.
