Chapter 530
Chapter 530
What is Lu Xun thinking about?
Lu Xunhui planned to lead the main force to regain the entire Lujiang River, mainly for two reasons.
The first reason is that Sun Quan suffered too many losses by luring the enemy deep during his northern expedition to Hefei.
To be honest, every time Sun Quan went to the Northern Expedition in the past, he successfully reached the city of Hefei.
But every time it was very unsatisfactory, Wei Jun repelled him back.
In addition to the fact that Sun Quan's personal commander-in-chief was a little bit broken, it was also very related to Wei Jun's strategy against the enemy.
Every time Sun Quan led his army to the city of Hefei, the Wei army adopted the strategy of fortifying the walls and clearing the country.
Then, after the energy of the Wu army was exhausted under the city of Hefei, the Wei army either mobilized elite soldiers in the city to attack, or mobilized elite soldiers ambushing in other areas to ambush the Wu army.
This has basically formed Wei Jun's old routine of dealing with Wu Jun.
And why would Wu Jun be defeated by Wei Jun's strategy?
It's not that Wu's army is not brave, nor is it that Wu's generals are not fighting to the death. The main reason is that when Wu's army arrived at the city of Hefei, the supply line was too long.
The supply line is unstable, which is a fatal hidden danger for any army.
Based on this lesson, Lu Xun decided to recover the entire territory of Lujiang first.
Because in this way, on the one hand, it can not only strengthen Jiangdong's national strength, but also eliminate the hidden danger of Wu Jun's supply line in the future.
Lu Xun wanted to win Hefei and make his name known all over the world, but he was a patient person.
He will not rush forward lightly because of the desire in his heart. He will go northward step by step from Lujiang County and occupy every important county.
This is the best way to protect Wu Jun's supply line.
Of course, it is not easy to do this.
Because in any important county, there must be elite soldiers guarding it, and it is too time-consuming to fight city by city.
But the disadvantages in this aspect can be solved by the second reason why Lu Xun did this.
Just like the generals in the hall, when he used the strategy of attacking east and west, but only showed that he only led the main force to attack the three counties of Lujiang, the faces of all the generals were puzzled.
What's more, some senior generals showed disdain on their faces.
And this is true for General Wu who is in the same power, let alone Cao Xiu who has always regarded Wu Jun as nothing?
Lu Xun knew that as long as Cao Xiu heard the news, he would definitely think he was a coward.
This will make Cao Xiu greatly lower his guard against Wu Jun.
But this alone is not enough, because the elite soldiers of the Wei army in Huainan will not disappear out of thin air.
So the next step is to see how the Cao Wei court responds to Mi Yang.
Sun Quan planned to send troops only after receiving the news from Mi Yang Lingshi Guanzhong, and this was exactly what Lu Xun suggested to him.
Because Lu Xun knew that Mi Yang was Cao Wei's most feared enemy at the moment, and Chang'an was a strategic location that Cao Wei could never allow to lose.
With the combination of the two, Cao Wei will definitely mobilize elite soldiers frantically to Guanzhong to stop Mi Yang in the near future.
Cao Wei had no choice.
After the loss of most of the elite Wei army in Guanzhong, Cao Wei was able to mobilize nothing more than elite soldiers from Hebei and Huainan.
Therefore, Lu Xun deduced that Cao Pi would send a messenger to ask Cao Xiu about the military situation in Huainan soon.
At that time, his timid image had already formed in the heart of the heroic Cao Xiu.
Compared with the horror of the enemy Mi Yang, how could Cao Xiu not transfer most of Huainan's elite soldiers to Guanzhong in order to defend Cao Wei's country?
That day was Lu Xun's chance.
Those who do not know the right time are not called generals.
Those who are clumsy at using time will be in trouble.
This is Lu Xun's way of using troops.
Take advantage of the general trend of the other side to create your own chance of victory!
Lu Xun didn't want to explain his thoughts to the Jiangdong generals present here.
Those who can understand will naturally understand, and those who don't understand will be in vain to explain.
Although Lu Xun usually has a humble look in front of outsiders, how can a capable person in this world not have a bit of arrogance in his heart?
Because he didn't understand, Han Dang, as the most experienced veteran at the moment, wanted to ask Lu Xun what he meant.
But Lu Xun, who was aware of Han Dang's movement, just ordered Sun Quan's Qingming sword to be placed on the table in front of him, and then his eyes that were ancient and calm scanned the generals present.
Lu Xun's expressionless eyes, coupled with the special meaning represented by the Qingming sword, made Han Dang directly dismiss the meaning of the words.
Sun Quanjun had not been appointed for a long time, if he openly raised objections to Lu Xun, it would damage Sun Quan's authority.
Han Dang, who has been loyal to the Jiangdong Sun family all his life, naturally would not do such a thing.
When Han Dang lost the courage to question Lu Xun, others were frightened by the symbolic meaning of Qingming Sword, and they dared not come out to question Lu Xun in public.
In this way, Lu Xun timely used the power given to him by Sun Quan to resolve an internal conflict for Wu Jun in time.
Unable to disobey Lu Xun's order, Han Dang could only accept the order and leave with a face of reluctance.
After Han Dang left as the benchmark, the remaining people also left the lobby one after another.
After everyone left, Lu Xun asked the left and right to put away the Qingming sword on the case, and then he came outside the hall with his hands behind his back.
The direction Lu Xun was looking into was Guanzhong.
Those who plan for a corner are generals, and those who plan for the overall situation are commanders.
Even though he is now on the Huainan battlefield, Lu Xun's mind is mostly on the Guanzhong battlefield.
This is all because there is Mi Yang on the Guanzhong battlefield at present.
Maybe many people can guess that the letter written by Mi Yang is a radical method.
But how many people have thought about why Mi Yang wanted to be aggressive?
In other words, why did Mi Yang increase his risk of attacking Chang'an?
Thinking of this, Lu Xun smiled.
I will borrow your power, but I will also give you back what you want.
There was no communication in advance or private communication, but Mi Yang and Lu Xun, as two handsome talents in the world, sometimes their thoughts collided with each other by coincidence.
Cao Rui thought that what he was facing this time was only Mi Yang, the great enemy, but he didn't know that Cao Wei, who was in charge of him now, would face the joint strangling of two current handsome talents.
Is there any hope of saving the day?
Then it depends on Cao Rui's next response.
On the second day, Han Dang led his army towards Xunyang with great fanfare. Wenpin, the prefect of Jiangxia who got the news, immediately led his army to display at the border, thinking about blocking the entry of Wu Jun.
At the same time, he quickly sent this military information to Hefei in an expedited manner.
Jiangxia County originally belonged to Jingzhou, but after the Battle of Xiangfan that year, the scope of Wei Jun's rule in Jingzhou was greatly reduced.
Under such circumstances, Cao Pi, on Jia Xu's suggestion, assigned Jiangxia County to the Huainan Governor's District.
Only in this way, when Jiang Xia encounters danger, can he get support.
Under Baili's haste, Cao Xiu quickly got the news.
Jiangxia County is important to Jiangdong, but it is also a strategic place for Cao Wei.
So Cao Xiu dispatched troops to Lu'an without hesitation, condescending to support Jiangxia County's flanks.
But what Cao Xiu didn't expect was that not long after he dispatched Huainan's elite soldiers, there was news of the fall of the three counties in Lujiang County.
After learning the news, Cao Xiu's first reaction was not surprise, but rather a bit funny.
Today's transportation and communication methods are backward, and there is no satellite radar, so it is not surprising to be attacked by the enemy.
But what Cao Xiu didn't expect was that when he dispatched troops from Huainan to support Jiangxia, Wu Jun didn't take advantage of the opportunity to enter Hefei, but instead went to attack the three counties of Lujiang?
The tactic of attacking the west by attacking the east has been used by many people throughout the ages, but the "west" in this tactic must be a place with sufficient strategic significance.
But how can the strategic significance of the three counties of Lujiang compare with that of Hefei?
This General Wu named Lu Xun must have too short-sightedness.
Cao Xiu had already learned from the spies that Jiangdong had been mobilizing troops some time ago, so Cao Xiu certainly knew what Sun Quan wanted to do.
Therefore, after learning that there were "a large number" of Wu troops heading west, he dispatched reinforcements without hesitation.
But the information he got at the end made Cao Xiu a little bit dumbfounded.
After Cao Xiu learned about Lu Xun's resume, he also understood in his heart-it turned out that he was a white-faced scholar who led the army for the first time.
Of course, it's not that Lu Xun has never led an army. He fought against Shanyue in his early years, but how could this kind of military exploits catch Cao Xiu's eyes.
After learning about Lu Xun's background, Cao Xiu, who believed that Lu Xun was Sun Quan's "lucky minister", inevitably despised Lu Xun in his heart.
This mistake was made by both Guan Yu and Liu Bei in history.
But this is also normal, apart from Sun Quan, Mi Yang is the only one who can value Lu Xun in this world.
After learning that Sun Quan sent a white-faced scholar, Cao Xiu took out from his bosom an imperial edict sent urgently from Luoyang a few days ago.
This edict was written by Cao Rui himself, asking Cao Xiu to judge the situation in the east and see if he could send reinforcements to Guanzhong for support.
Originally Cao Xiu was still hesitant about whether to send reinforcements to Guanzhong after learning about the changes in Jiangdong, but at this moment, the hesitation in his heart disappeared.
It is good that Wu Jun has brought tens of thousands of troops this time, but what counts in a war is never the number of troops, but the quality of the general.
What's more, Hefei is a strong city!
I think back then, Sun Quan would always bring a hundred thousand troops to send him off.
To be honest, with the current situation in the world, Cao Xiu thinks that the Han army led by Mi Yang can be called the enemy of the Wei army. As for the Wu army, are they worthy?
Thinking of Cao Xiu summoning Man Chong, he said to Man Chong: "Give the order to Zhongye, if the Wu army continues to invade, he only needs to stick to the city.
In addition, transfer the elite soldiers sent back as soon as possible.
After resting for a few days, you will personally lead the reinforcements to Guanzhong for support. "
After hearing Cao Xiu's order, Man Chong, who had always been seasoned, thought about persuading Cao Xiu to wait a few more days.
But what Cao Xiu blurted out next left Man Chong speechless.
"Is it Mi Yang who is evil, or Lu Xun who is evil?"
Although this sentence is a question, there is an answer in everyone's heart.
Considering the overall situation, Cao Xiu was right.
What's more, Lu Xun's performance is full of favors, and he can't see anything about Lu Xun that Wei Jun can be afraid of.
After thinking about the pros and cons in his heart, Man Chong took the order and left immediately.
After Man Chong left, Cao Xiu couldn't help worrying about the battle in Guanzhong.
Who is the well-deserved Huaxia Zhengshuo?
All in this battle!
