Lu Xun led a large army to confront me. Lu Xun was not in a hurry to attack. Even if all the generals in Wuzhong urged Lu Xun to advance, Lu Xun still took the defensive stance and did not make any attack. In response to this situation, I gathered together to discuss it.

I asked first: "Are Zhou Lang and Zijing doing well with us?" Fan Xi replied: "They are still very excited. They still want to go back to Sun Quan's side! Even if I informed them of Sun Quan's harm to brother, they are still stubborn!" "Oh!" I sighed and said: "Xi'er, continue to treat them well! In fact, I can capture Zhou Yu. If it weren't for the chaos within Sun Wu, and Lu Yi told me about Zhou Yu's hiding place, I couldn't catch him! I'll tell you to Governor Zhou! I sent you to entertain him to show my sincerity! By the way, Zhou Yu must be very concerned about the battle situation ahead, and you also inform Zhou Yu of the news of Lu Xun being closed but not fighting. Let him know that Lu Xun is not simple!" "Lu Xun is not simple?" Fan Xi didn't understand.

I turned my eyes to Chen Gong, and Chen Gong explained: "Young Master, because Zhou Yu was captured by us, Dongwu was scared and our army was in full swing. Lu Xun did not fight with us at this time, but instead used persistence to make the morale of both sides no longer decline and the other. Because no matter how strong our morale is, it will weaken with time. Although the autumn harvest has been already, and the food can support us for a period of war, it will be unfavorable for us. We are eager to fight to find a way to fight with the Wu army, but Lu Xun will not fight with us. In that way, we cannot fight to fight. Once we are anxious, it is exactly what Lu Xun wants. Moreover, the longer we delay, it proves that we cannot annex Sun Wu as soon as possible, and perhaps we will win them as foreign aid as Liu Bei. As long as Liu Bei sends troops to help, the situation will change greatly!"

Fan Xi understood and said, "So Lu Xun is not afraid of others laughing at him or scolding him, and avoiding the fight under all the pressure? What should I do?"

Fan Xi's words deeply touched my heart. I didn't know how to make Lu Xun fight with our army and troubled him. Chen Zhi had already decided on the plan, but did not say the plan first, but instead analyzed the situation first: "As far as I know, before Lu Yi died, Lu Yi made public the matter of Sun Quan's harm to his brother. For this reason, rumors in Wu were widely circulated, and many people believed that Sun Quan was harmed by Sun Quan. For this reason, Wu was not united, and many people were disappointed with Sun Quan. After hearing the rumors, Taishi Ci went to find Sun Quan with Lu Xun. Later, the three of them retreated and all of them were alone in front of Sun Ce's temple. After the three of them left, they saw a tattered wooden frame and a tattered dress. From this, I speculated that there was a possibility that I could design to promote the final power of Wu to be wiped out by us!"

"Oh? What's the plan? Second brother, tell me quickly!" I was anxious and wanted to know what Chen Zhi had. At this time, the scout came and reported in panic: "Lord is not good! I heard that Liu Bei has sent an army to attack us and want to use this to force us to retreat and return to the aid. Liu Bei said, if we withdraw from Yangzhou, then everything will be regarded as nothing has happened!"

"What? Not good! It's really not good! What Sun Wu hopes most has happened, and Liu Bei sent troops to help! It's a lot more difficult for us to destroy Wu! What should we do if we think this is the best?" But the excited Chen Zhi was completely opposite to my worries: "God helps me! I didn't expect Liu Bei to send troops so quickly! It seems that my plan has been accomplished!"

Chen Zhi's words made us stunned. I don't know what he was selling, so I waited for Chen Zhi to continue speaking. Chen Zhi said his plan: "The reason why Lu Xun could not stick to it is because after our morale was weakened, he made a mistake and made him catch it. So, we can use the tricks to let Lu Xun win us several games in a row, so that we can retreat to Jiaozhou. If Lu Xun pursues, then we can ambush Lu Xun. After defeating Lu Xun, the whole of Yangzhou will be at your fingertips! At the same time, have we given Jingzhou to Cao Cao? Now that Liu Bei is attacking us, Cao Cao can't stand by, right?"

Tian Feng thought for a while and said, "No! It is possible that they will attack Yangzhou together, and then use an army to restrain Liu Bei, and ask us the same! In this case, Cao Cao will lose some land in Jingzhou, but it doesn't matter. As long as Sun Wu is destroyed, the remaining Liu Bei will become the prey in the mouths of me and Cao Cao!"

I asked, "Will Liu Bei do his best to rescue the Eastern Wu?" Tian Feng shook his head and said, "No! No one can save the Eastern Wu when it is defeated and destroyed. In that way, Liu Bei can only try his best to grab the territory to enhance his strength!" "Hmm! Yes!" I nodded repeatedly and thought about it.

I turned to Chen Zhi and asked, "Second brother, if Lu Xun doesn't pursue him, then Wu will still have the strength to occupy Yangzhou for rest and recuperation. It is hard to predict who will win or lose in the future!" Chen Zhi smiled and said, "Didn't I say it just now? Someone saw Sun Quan, Lu Xun, and Taishi Ci enter Sun Ce's temple, and after coming out, he brought a piece of ragged clothes. Based on this, I can guess the reason, so that spreading rumors can be a big deal!" I was puzzled and asked, "Spreading rumors? Use such a basis to spread rumors?"

Chen Zhi said confidently: "Yes! Think about it, why do you whip Sun Quan's clothes in front of Sun Ce's temple? Isn't this meant to apologize to Sun Ce? It was actually whipping, so it would definitely not be Sun Quan's own actions, but others took action. Like this, the ones who took action were Taishici and Lu Xun. As the lord, he was ashamed of his ministers. What should I do if the dignity of the monarch is? How will he control his subordinates in the future? What should everyone do if everyone learns from Taishici and Lu Xun? Also, isn't this proven that Sun Quan harms his brother? Fourth brother, think about it, can Taishici and Lu Xun live in peace?"

"It's amazing! It's amazing! Second brother, your method is really great! Implement it immediately!" Everyone nodded and thought that this plan was really great. This time, Chen Zhi showed his face a lot. No wonder he and Xiong Zheng were in charge of the intelligence. Naturally, with the correct information, it is appropriate to think about the countermeasures.

The plan was implemented after the plan was decided. The Jiaozhou army continued to go to the Wu army to insult the army. Lu Xun really couldn't stand it, just to wait for the Jiaozhou army to make mistakes. At this time, the Jiaozhou army was trapped in a narrow terrain and could not advance, and there were many people and horses, so they had to scatter. This happened to be a taboo of large military strategists, divided the troops, and was in a dry place. It was autumn now, and the autumn was clear and cool, which was conducive to the spread of the fire, and fire attack was the best strategy.

Lu Xun stood in the military camp and looked at the Jiaozhou army scene and said, "Looking at the appearance of the Jiaozhou soldiers, people are impatient, and they are not as strong as they were at the beginning. Now everyone is lazy, which is a good opportunity for attack!" Xu Sheng, Ding Feng, Sun Shao and others were dissatisfied and said, "How can you use troops? Now the Jiaozhou army has occupied the nearest force, and attacking them is counterproductive!" Lu Xun smiled, ignored it, and immediately summoned the people. After the order, he used fire to attack the Jiaozhou military camp in a dry place.

At night, the Wu army followed the plan and attacked the fire, but when they saw the Jiaozhou military camps lit up one after another, many people rushed around with their heads in their arms. The Wu army rushed forward, and strangely, they encountered few Jiaozhou soldiers, but they saw the Jiaozhou soldiers running away one after another and did not dare to fight with them. Pan Zhangyuan looked at the "Fan" character Shuaiqi and immediately chased after his general Ma Zhong.

"Fan Li, get off the horse quickly and tie it up!" When Pan Zhang rushed forward first, I turned around and said, "Pan Zhang, go back and tell your governor that we each have the best to protect our country and not violate each other. Isn't it better? Don't press on each other anymore!" Pan Zhang sneered and said, "Fan Li, your main force has fallen into our governor Lu's strategy and lost all its losses. Do you think there is any qualification to say such things? Go! Give me all and take Fan Li's head!" After Pan Zhang said that, he was the first to rush forward.

The crossbows all came out and shot at Pan Zhang's men and horses. Pan Zhang was shot to death with his horses. Ma Zhong, who was in the back camp, fled to his life when he saw this and immediately retreated to report to Lu Xun.

When Lu Xun saw all the generals coming to report the situation of the Jiaozhou army that was chasing all the way, he frowned, looked at the Jiaozhou military camp that was burned, sighed, and said, "It's not like it! It's not like a defeat at all! It seems that he intends to win us! What conspiracy is Fan Li using?"

Xu Sheng was convinced by Lu Xun and apologized: "Governor, I laughed at you before! Now I will avenge you!" Lu Xun remained silent and said: "General Xu, I don't think we won this battle, but I feel that there are many doubts!" ​​Sun Shao shouted: "Why is the governor not pursuing? The entire army dispatched to pursue Fan Li and eliminate Fan Li!"

It happened that at this time, Ma Zhong, who had escaped from his life, reported to Lu Xun about Pan Zhang's pursuit and died. Lu Xun had made a decision and said, "No! No! There are so many doubts. I am afraid that Fan Li would lure us into their Jiaozhou, and there will be ambushing troops. And once our army is away, the rear will be empty. What if Cao Cao takes the opportunity to enter? It is better to go back to defend the local area and wait and see how it changes!" Lu Xun made such a great contribution, and the generals admired him and no one spoke.

If the Wu army does not pursue the Jiaozhou army, then Chen Zhi will implement this plan again...

Summary of the next chapter: Chen Zhi's plan was very successful. Taishici and Lu Xun were not only dismissed from office but also escorted back. There was also news that Taishici and Lu Xun had an unfortunate encounter. Wu's three people came, which made Fan Li firmly determined to destroy Wu.
Chapter completed!
