Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 20 Lu Xun's Hands

(I saw a book that was published a few days earlier than me. It has 11 words. Three updates a day is too strong. I’m so good T_T)

In the second month of June, the camps on both sides of Yidao were endless, and the summer heat receded a little. Lu Xun waited anxiously on the north bank of the river, and the scouts sent to the camp of Zhuoxiang of the Han army to investigate reported the feedback.

Seeing Lu Xun, who rarely showed any anxious expressions, Zhu Ran asked curiously, "Bo Yan, where are you waiting for the scouts to return?"

Lu Xun realized that he had lost his composure, stopped pacing, and said slowly to Zhu Ran: "Zhuoxiang."

Zhu Ran was surprised and said: "Zhuo Township is the south bank of the great river, the back stronghold of the Han Army. You don't want to find out the strength of the troops and go straight to Zhuo Township! It's too dangerous. With so many troops in the front of the Han Army, if you send troops to attack, if you are killed Attacking back and forth, wouldn't it be a big defeat! Absolutely not, Bo Yan!"

Lu Xun smiled and said nothing, instead of pacing, he knelt down before the case and wrote the military order.

Seeing Lu Xun writing the military order, Zhu Ran couldn't help looking at him curiously.

Lu Xun held a pen in his hand and wrote on the scarf to the following effect: "I ordered Sun Huan to attack Liu Bei from Yidao Licheng at Shenshi today (4:00 p.m.). Leave handsome characters on the scarf, and finally stamp the seal of the governor.

Lu Xun ordered the messenger to cross the river immediately and hand it over to Sun Huan.

Just when Lu Xun handed over the military order to the herald, the servants outside the tent entered the account and handed over their hands to report: "The scout has returned."

Lu Xun showed joy and called the scouts in.

When the scout saw Lu Xun meet him in person, he cupped his hands happily and said: "Captain, we were ordered to go to Zhuoxiang to inquire about the news, and found that Zhuoxiang had strengthened its guards and troops compared to last time. Because the Han army had set up antlers and traps outside, we couldn't get close, but we waited. In Guanying Village, there are trees with "Liu" banners, "Zhao" Yaqi and "Ma" Yaqi, etc. There are about 5000 people in the cooking smoke and camp tents in the Guanying. People, still in the south of the Yangtze River."

After hearing this, Lu Xun asked again: "Dazhu, what's the style? Have you ever remembered it?"

The scout recalled the details and replied: "I don't remember the details of the big banner, but there is a red banner on the top of the big banner."

Lu Xun asked some more details, and then asked him to step back and rest.

Zhu Ran expressed his doubts with a confused face: "Bo Yan, who is the "Liu" big banner and it is still a red banner, and who are the "Zhao" Yaqi and the "Ma" Yaqi? Could it be Liu Bei and Zhao Rong? Go back to camp, but there shouldn't be so few soldiers and horses!"

Lu Xun pondered for a while and asked Zhu Ran with a smile: "How can it be so simple for the emperor to travel? In the Han Dynasty, non-clan members could not get red banners, and we generals can only black banners. Old captives (veterans, insultingly called Liu Bei) used to inherit the Han system, so the emperor travels. There are six banners, but there is only one big banner. Tell me, who are the current clan relatives of the Shu Han?"

Zhu Ran said with a wry smile: "Liu Bei has no clan relatives, only heirs. Now that Liu Feng is dead, only Liu Chan is left."

Zhu Ran continued: "Since the prince is in Zhuoxiang, it is not surprising that there are two banners of "Zhao" and "Ma". It must be Zhao Yun and Ma Chao. This Liu Bei wants to fight us to the death!"

Xue Zong's note: "The book of war says that the ivory flag is the banner of the general. It is said that in ancient times, the Son of Heaven came out and built a big ivory flag, and the pole was decorated with ivory, so the cloud ivory flag." , the Citi flag is the middle, and the black flag is the bottom. The information of the Han Dynasty has not been found, so here we refer to the Yuan Dynasty and use the red flag as the top.)
Although Lu Xun disrupted the arrangement because of Liu Chan's sudden appearance, he was not angry.He said to Zhu Ran more calmly: "Yi Feng went to call the generals to come, the time for our army to counterattack has come."

Zhu Ran saw Lu Xun accepting the order with such an expression. With the help of his followers, Lu Xun took off his Confucian uniform and put on the general's armor in the camp, showing the atmosphere of a Confucian general.
-
In the north of the Yangtze River, there are endless camps of the Wu army. In the tent of the Chinese army Lu Xun, all the generals gathered and stood in it. Because the Han army lured the enemy last time, the generals were a little convinced by Lu Xun.

Lu Xun wears a hood on his head, and is dressed in bright light armor, holding a Han sword in his hand, with a strong sense of murderous aura.Standing in front of the case, Lu Xun said in a loud voice: "The old prisoner has invaded our border for a year. Fortunately, I have been appreciated by the king and I have taken charge of the army. Now I have lived up to the king's trust. It is time for our army to counterattack."

"From Zhuoxiang to Yidao, the army of Shu camped more than forty camps in the forest. Before dawn, the army crossed the river at night, set fire to the forest, and killed them. The main force of the Shu army was in the forest, and there was no change. I sent General Zhu Ran across the river to test the strength of the Shu Han.

The old prisoner is in Yidao. I have sent General Sun Huan out of the city to fight the old prisoner. Our army set fire to the forest. The old prisoner can only return to the west. Our army surrounded and killed the old prisoner. I can repay Your Majesty's kindness. "

After Lu Xun's words, all the generals were very excited when they heard it.

Lu Xun walked up to the commander's case, grabbed the military badge in his hand, faced the generals and ordered: "Han Dang, Zhu Ran listen to the order."

Han Dang and Zhu Ran went out and bowed their hands, "There are generals Liu Chan, Zhao Yun, and Ma Chao in the enemy camp in Zhuoxiang. I order you two to go to the east of Zhuoxiang tonight when the fire is attacking. Do not attack the camp and surround the Shu army. Rout the troops in the rear, cooperate with the main army to encircle and kill, and lead the two of you to lead the headquarters and the rest of the 8000 people, and remember to guard against Zhao Yun and Ma Chao in Zhuoxiang." Han Dang and Zhu Ran stepped forward to receive the order.

Lu Xun continued to order: "Zhuge Jin and Luo Tong listen to the order."

Zhuge Jin and Luo Tong went out and handed each other over, "Order you two to cross the river at night and set fire to the forest in front of the Shu army to attack the Shu village. After that, go to assist Sun Huan in besieging and killing the old captives, and lead the army and horsemen of our army." Ma 8000 people." Zhuge Jin and Luo Tong stepped forward to receive the order.

"Xu Sheng listened to the order and ordered you to lead the 7000 people of the army and horses of the headquarters, set fire to the forest behind the Shu army, surround and kill the soldiers of the Shu army, and you need to cooperate with Han Dang and Zhu Ran."

Xu Sheng stepped forward to accept the order, and Lu Xun said with pride: "General Pan Zhang, ride up the river with a navy, and directly attack the Shu army's water village, and cooperate with you. I will lead the army to hunt Liu Bei with you. Generals, go and prepare." !"

All the generals promised to go out slowly.Lu Xun was the only one left.

Sitting in front of the case, Lu Xun took off his pocket hood, and sighed helplessly, "It's a great plan, but Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and others interfered. I'm afraid it will be difficult to take all of the Shu army, but it will only cause great damage to the Shu army. What a pity!"
-
It is said that Sun Huan received an order from Lu Xun, ordering himself to send troops to Liu Bei from the city of Yidao at the time of Shen, and to stand in the field for a day. Sun Huan was ecstatic, and ordered his soldiers to rectify the troops and horses, and received chariots, bows and crossbows, and soldiers to prepare for three days. food.Prepare to fight fiercely with Liu Bei, as the bridgehead to enter Jingnan, hoard a large amount of military equipment, food and grass, these materials are no problem.

Sun Huan led [-] soldiers out of the city at Shenshi, leaving only [-] old and weak in the city.Sun Huan ordered his soldiers to hold high the banner on the road, and the horses dragged the branches to raise the dust, for fear that the Han army would not know that there was a large army attacking in Yidao.

　Wu Jun thought it was Ma Chao because of the Ma Ziya flag, but he didn't know it was Ma Dai. His judgment was wrong. The transmission of information in ancient times was very inconvenient, and at present, Ma Chao is the only general named Ma in the Shu Han Dynasty.
