Chapter 721

Jiangcheng County, located in the back of Danyang County, borders Guangling county.

There is only a line between Jiangcheng County and Guangling county.

Lu Xun came to Jiangcheng County to take charge of the handover of Danyang county.

Standing by the river, Lu Xun waited quietly.

A retinue stood beside Lu Xun and reported, "my Lord, you don't have to come in person. Let Cao Jun cross the river and leave it to the people below. "

Lu Xun laughed, but did not explain.

If he doesn't come to the riverside in person, the other side won't be less wary.

Only by coming in person can we show sincerity.

Lu Xun attached great importance to the war, which was related to the future of him and the Lu family in the state of Chu.

"Here it is

Suddenly, the retinue reminds a way.

Lu Xun looked up and saw the dark shadows gathered at the ferry on the North Bank of the sword. At a glance, it was like a long dragon across the north bank.

Because of the distance, we can't really see the situation on the other side.

However, Lu Xun still saw a small boat coming into the water by the ferry on the other side and heading towards the south bank.

When a boat sails in the river, it can't cross the Yangtze River in a short time.

It's June now, with continuous summer rain, rising water level and relatively fast flow.

Under such circumstances, Cao Jun did not dare to cross the river easily.

Lu Xun watched Cao Jun's boat getting closer and closer, and his face became more calm.

There is no war now, but it has begun.

It took nearly half an hour for the boat to cross the river bank smoothly.

The man on board was Xun you.

He came tumbling in the boat with a pale look on his face. He is a northerner, used to walking flat, not used to the bumpy boat.

Xun you arched his hand and said, "I have met Lord Lu."

As soon as Gu Yong returned to Wu County, he sent a letter to Guangling county and told Lu Xun who was in charge of the handover.

Lu Xun was surprised and said, "it was Xun Junshi who came here in person. Isn't Xun Junshi afraid that Lu will take you and threaten Wei Shizi?"

Xun you listened with disdain.

This is also a false statement.

On the surface, it looks majestic, but in fact, there is no threat at all.

As soon as Xun you shook his robe, a gust of prestige blew away a little heat. He was sober and said with a smile, "I'm standing here. I don't have anything, not even a sword. Lord Lu wants to do it, please. "

Lu Xun said: "Xun's Army division is worthy of being the confidant of the king of Wei. His courage is admirable. I'm just joking. I can't be taken seriously. "

Xun you looked at Lu Xun, and his eyes were bright.

Before he came, he had sent someone to know Lu Xun.

Lu Xun comes from the Lu family and has a deep hatred with Sun Quan.

Xun you came in person for another purpose, trying to persuade Lu Xun to surrender. He was not in a hurry to let Lu Xun arrange to cross the river. He said: "Mr. Lu was born in the Lu family. He is a scholarly descendant of a famous family. Now, the Lu family is no longer what it used to be. It's a pity. "

Lu Xun said: "Lao Xun is worried."

Xun you was not impatient and said, "what's Mr. Lu's opinion on the current situation of Wu state?"

Lu Xun glanced at Xun you and his eyes narrowed.

But he didn't answer.

Xunyou continued: "Lord Lu is a wise man. He must be able to see the situation of Wu. Today, the state of Wu is still struggling. It will be a matter of time before it is defeated. As the saying goes, good birds choose trees to live in, and good officials choose their masters. Lord Lu doesn't think about his future. Don't you think about the Lu family? "

Lu Xun said with a sneer, "Xun's military adviser is really gorgeous and admirable."

Xun you said, "I just want to state a fact."

What he said is the current situation of the Lu family.

In particular, Lu Xun, as a member of the Lu family, could not have no idea when he saw the gradual decline of the landing family.

Even if Lu Xun is loyal to Sun Quan, what about the Lu family?

Family and country, there is a family before there is a country, which is imprinted in the hearts of the children of the aristocratic family.

Xun you did not believe that Lu Xun would be indifferent.

Lu Xun, however, did not give a positive reply. He turned away from the topic and asked, "Xun Jun Shi, Cao Jun has arrived at the north bank. Are you not ready to cross the river?"

Xun you's face was full of smiles.

Lu Xun didn't answer, so he didn't explicitly refuse.

It shows that there is hope.

Xun you tried to find out Lu Xun's idea, but he didn't say much, saying, "Lord Lu, Cao Jun is ready to cross the river. However, there are no boats and they are not good at crossing rivers, so they need the help of Wu soldiers. "

"How to help?" Lu said

Xun you replied, "dispatch Wu warships to transport Cao's troops across the river."

Lu Xun said, "good!"

Immediately, Lu Xun gave the order.

Soon after Lu Xun gave the order, he saw the ships coming from the Yangtze River and heading for the north bank.Xun you looked at the warship heading north with solemn eyes.

Previously, Zhang Liao sent soldiers to inquire about the movement on the river, but did not find the water army of Wu state.

As soon as Lu Xun gave the order, he came.

It can be seen that the water army of the state of Wu is powerful.

The overall combat effectiveness of the state of Wu is very weak, but the water army of the state of Wu is really powerful.

Xun you was thoughtful, and so was Lu Xun.

Xun you asked Wu's warships to transport Cao's soldiers, but Cao's warships didn't appear. This is what is puzzling. If Cao Jun had no warships, Lu Xun didn't believe it at all.

Therefore, Cao Jun must have hidden the warships.

Lu Xun did not understand the situation of the Wei warships, it is difficult to make inferences.

What a cunning Xun you.

Lu Xun was full of spirit and didn't dare to relax. Xun you in front of him is not a man who can easily be deceived.

The warships of the state of Wu went back and forth between the north and the south.

Groups of Cao soldiers crossed the river bank and stationed on the south bank.

Xun you ordered his soldiers to be stationed and on full alert.

As long as the army of the state of Wei crosses the river, it must be on guard, because crossing the Yangtze River means that the army of the state of Wei enters the territory of the state of Wu. Xun you couldn't relax until he completely occupied Danyang county.

On the surface of the river, the warships kept going back and forth.

It took a long time for most of Cao's troops to cross the river.

Zhang Liao also crossed the river.

But Cao Pi did not cross the river and stayed in the north bank to camp.

Most of the Cao troops crossed the river and entered Danyang County, but in case, Zhang Liao left Cao Pi to guard the rear to avoid being attacked.

Lu Xun saw that Cao Jun's arrangement was too strict.

It's impossible to attack Cao Jun on the edge of the Yangtze River. Fortunately, he didn't make any arrangements.

Lu Xun looked at Xun you and said, "Xun Jun Shi, Cao Jun has crossed the river. Please follow me to Jiangcheng County first. Then he went south to Wanling County, the seat of Danyang county. "

But Xun you shook his head and said, "don't worry. We'll take a rest here. Tomorrow morning, we will go south again. "

When crossing the river, many soldiers felt dizzy after the turbulence.

Although he was able to drive south by force, Xun you was not at ease in such a state.

The army is in Danyang county. There may be war at any time.

Soldiers must be able to fight at all times.

Lu Xun said with a smile: "according to the arrangement of Xun's military adviser." After he said that, his heart was a little lost. He also saw the situation of Cao's soldiers. If the other party was eager to go south, the ambush he laid would be useful.

Now it seems that it is not easy to ambush Xun you.

The army camped for a rest.

A night without words.

The next morning, it was overcast.

Before long, we saw thunder and lightning raging in the air, pouring rain.

It's impossible to go on such a heavy rain.

After a full hour, the rain weakened and became a drizzle.

When Lu Xun arrived at the Chinese Army's tent, he saw Zhang Liao and Xun you and asked, "General Zhang and Xun's division, the heavy rain is getting smaller. Now it's drizzle. Are you going south?"
