Chapter 398: Three Kingdoms: Don’t I know military affairs? Liu Bei doesn’t listen
[Dongwu sent Han Dang as the chief general, Zhou Tai as the deputy general, Pan Zhang as the vanguard, Ling Tong and Gan Ning as the reinforcements, and raised an army of 100,000 to resist Liu Bei.
During the banquet, Liu Bei made a slip of the tongue, which made Huang Zhong unconvinced. He went alone to fight against Han Dang and Zhou Tai. He was surrounded and shot by an arrow, and died.
"I am a warrior, fortunate to have met Your Majesty. I am seventy-five years old this year, and I have enough life to live."
"I hope Your Majesty will take good care of your health and conquer the Central Plains."
……
When Liu Bei and the Eastern Wu forces fought at Yiling, Guan Xing chased Pan Zhang and obtained the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, and chopped off Pan Zhang's head to spare his father's life.
The people in the south of the Yangtze River were afraid of Liu Bei, so Sun Quan, Marquis of Wu, captured Fan Jiang and Zhang Da and sent them back with Zhang Fei's head, and presented a petition for peace.
Ma Liang, the counsellor, persuaded Liu Bei to agree to make peace, but Liu Bei refused to listen.
"I have made up my mind. I will first destroy Wu and then Wei."
When Sun Quan, Marquis of Wu, learned that Liu Bei refused to make peace, he was helpless.
"Am I just going to sit there and wait for death?!"
At this time, the counselor Kan Ze recommended Lu Xun, but Zhang Zhao, Gu Yong, and Bu Zhi opposed it, believing that Lu Xun was young and had no prestige. After weighing the pros and cons, Sun Quan appointed Lu Xun as the Grand Commander of the Eastern Wu, in charge of six counties, eighty-one states, and all the troops of Jingchu.
＜Historically, Huang Zhong died before the Battle of Yiling, so here he has an opportunity to repay Liu Bei's appreciation. Moreover, it can be said that he was discovered and recommended to Liu Bei by Guan Yu, so it is completely reasonable for him to avenge Guan Yu.＞
＜Alas, of the Five Tiger Generals, only Zhao Yun is left. [Sigh]＞
＜Why didn't you bring Wei Yan, Ma Chao, and Zhao Yun? That's because they were all guarding the border. What if Wei attacked?＞
＜From this we can see that Shu Han is short of young people.＞
＜A man will die for his friend. If Huang Zhong had advised Liu Bei at this time, wouldn’t the following events have happened? [crying] Rest in peace, General Huang! ＞
＜It’s over. Ji Han’s downward spiral cannot be stopped [crying]＞
＜Seeing Guan Xing’s revenge finally made me feel relieved. It’s the light of righteousness!＞
＜Actually, what Ma Liang said is right. We can make peace with Wu at this time. The biggest enemy is still Wei. It is best to go down the stairs.＞
＜Liu Bei: It’s unfair. If these were the conditions in history, and Soochow also asked for peace, I would definitely withdraw my troops [covering my face]＞
＜This part belongs to Luo Guanzhong's own artistic processing. I also remember that those who surrendered in history lived well, and this time Dongwu really did not ask for peace.＞
＜Lu Xun, the Little Zhou Lang of Jiangdong, is as talented as Zhou Yu.＞
＜After Zhou Yu left, everyone in Jiangdong was as good as Zhou Yu. [Covering face] The real measurement unit of talent in Dongwu: Zhou Yu.＞
＜Lu Xun and Lu Kang, father and son, the Grand Commander of the Eastern Wu.＞
＜It’s no wonder Guan Yu looked down on Lu Xun. It was actually because the people of Dongwu thought Lu Xun couldn’t convince the people and had no great achievements.＞
＜It's a pity for Lu Xun, a great Confucian general was angered to death by Sun Quan.＞
[Liu Bei, Emperor Zhaolie of Han: I made a mistake. I would never say the words above! Luo Guanzhong, what else did you add?]
[Huang Zhong in the second year of Zhangwu in the Later Han Dynasty: He died in a cowardly way, being plotted against! But dying on the battlefield was worth it!]
[Xiahou Yuan, the sixth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty: Humph, it would be better to die!]
[Zhang Fei, the second year of Zhangwu in the Later Han Dynasty: Dongwu really cannot tolerate talent. Sun Quan, are you jealous of others because they are handsome and talented?]
[Emperor Sun Quan of Wu: Humph, nonsense!]
……
"Little Zhou Lang." Sun Ce pointed at the person on the light curtain, then smiled and turned his head to talk to Zhou Yu.
"Gongjin, it seems that you have a very high status in the hearts of the people of Dongwu." Being called the unit of measurement of Dongwu's talents by Guangmu is indeed a very high evaluation.
"Bofu, you have a good vision." Zhou Yu did not respond to Sun Ce's joke. Instead, he reminded Sun Ce that Lu Xun above him is your son-in-law.
Sun Ce, who values his family: "..."
……
"Old and useless?" Liu Bei murmured, "How could I say such a thing? I have always respected General Huang."
"Your Majesty, perhaps you should pay attention to General Huang's health." Zhuge Liang reminded him at the right time, "The screen said that in real history, General Huang did not participate in the war against Wu, but died of illness before that..."
It was not difficult for Zhuge Liang to believe how fast the Han Dynasty would go downhill.
Only Zhao Yun is left among the Five Tiger Generals, not to mention the burning of Yiling that is about to begin...
"Well... we need to pay attention! I'll ask Hua Tuo to check the health of every minister." Liu Bei felt depressed. From what he saw on the screen, the early stages of the attack on Wu were going smoothly. What exactly went wrong?
As the music played, an elegant man walked out from the deck in the light curtain video.
"Lu Xun."
"He is Sun Ce's son-in-law and is not outstanding in Jiangdong." Zhuge Liang had already focused on investigating this person when he appeared in the incident of Guan Yu and Lu Meng.
"The next Grand Commander after Dongwu is the Lu family father and son. This shows that they are not ordinary people. We should be cautious."
Fa Zheng suddenly thought of the joke before the light curtain, "General Guan is fine now, so Lu Meng is still alive and well. It seems that the rumors are still somewhat credible."
Could it be that in history, Lu Meng was really being sought after by Guan Yu's ghost?
……
[Ma Liang advised Liu Bei to act with caution.
Liu Bei felt impatient and said conceitedly: "I have been a military commander for many years, but I am not as good as a young boy?"
"I have an army of 750,000 men, stretching for 700 miles, with 40 camps. What can he do to me?"
Han Dang, Zhou Tai and others of the Eastern Wu were also dissatisfied with Lu Xun's appointment as the Grand Commander of the Eastern Wu.
Zhou Tai suggested that General Sun Huan of the Andong Army should be rescued first because he was the nephew of the Marquis of Wu. However, Lu Xun disagreed and believed that the crisis would be resolved after defeating Shu.
Han Dang suggested dividing the troops to resist the enemy, but this was also rejected by Lu Xun, who ordered him not to go into battle without permission.
Liu Bei sent light cavalry to explore the camp, and Han Dang prepared to attack, but was stopped by Lu Xun.
The people of Eastern Wu believed that Lu Xun was afraid of death, so Lu Xun used the sword given to him by the Marquis of Wu to order everyone not to leave the camp.
The two sides confronted each other in Yiling, from spring to summer, Lu Xun had been holding his ground, waiting for an opportunity. The Shu Han troops were stationed on the plain, suffering terribly under the scorching sun and with difficulty in getting water.
Ma Liang reminded Liu Bei that Lu Xun must have a plan, but Liu Bei did not listen.
"It's just cowardice. Wu's army has been defeated repeatedly. How dare they go out again?"
In order to deal with the difficulty in getting water, Liu Bei moved the camp to an area with dense forests and near a stream, waiting to advance in autumn.
Ma Liang felt something was wrong and tried to dissuade Liu Bei, but Liu Bei refused to listen.
＜《Years of Using Soldiers》 Float away, and continue to float away. As we all know, the iron rule in the Three Kingdoms is that once the lord floats away, he will definitely lose. Guandu, Chibi, and Yiling are the three great defeats.＞
＜Don’t I know anything about military affairs? Is that you, Liu Benchu? [狗头]＞
＜Although Yuan Shao is dead, his ghost has never dissipated. His spirit was inherited by Cao Mengde and Liu Xuande successively. [狗头]＞
＜An army of 750,000, the advantage is mine! How similar to Cao Cao.＞
＜Liu Bei has been losing all his life, what kind of troops would he lead?＞
＜I feel like Ma Liang is going to shut himself in. So helpless. Liu Bei really feels sorry for those who followed him out of Sichuan. [Sigh]＞
＜Sun Huan is really good at defending. Like Cao Ren, he puts all his skill points into defending the city.＞
＜Lu Boyan has no idea at all, hahaha.＞
＜Teammate counter-healing.＞
＜Sun Quan really trusted Lu Xun completely at this time.＞
＜I feel that if you want to be a lord and achieve hegemony, you must know how to appoint and use people!＞
On Protracted War
＜Cao Pi just stared blankly at such a good opportunity? !＞
＜In fact, Cao Pi was dealing with internal problems at this time. He had just usurped the Han Dynasty and the internal situation was unstable. After taking a break, he was preparing to attack Wu when he encountered the plague. He was really unlucky.＞
＜Summer in the south is really hot.＞
＜Liu Bei doesn’t listen to anyone now, and wants to destroy Wu at will, alas!＞
＜It is such a pity that Ma Liang died in Yiling! If he hadn’t died, it would definitely not be Ma Su who guarded Jieting.＞
＜Everyone can become the original lady. [Covering face]＞
＜Questioning Benchu, understanding Mengde, and becoming Xuande. [Eating melon]＞
[Yuan Shao, the sixth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty: Why do you have to humiliate me like this!]
[Emperor Cao Cao: Oh? Benchu... Miss?]
[Sun Ce, the sixth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty: Tsk tsk tsk, this is all Liu Xuande is capable of.]
……
Yuan Shao, who was lying on his sickbed, was unwilling to accept that he could not defeat fate. "Could it be that I will be like the original history and not survive this year?"
He vomited blood so many times every day that he couldn't even count them.
The counselors and generals who remain are all loyal to the Yuan family, but the problems exposed by Yuan Shao before have not been well resolved.
Even after the Battle of Guandu, he was determined to make his eldest son the heir due to reasons related to the Guangmu, but he always felt guilty towards his youngest son and usually took care of and subsidized him in various ways.
The situation inside seemed calm only because Yuan Shao was still alive.
What Yuan Shao did not see clearly, Cao Cao, Sun Ce and others had already understood. It can be said that the two of them were just waiting for the news of Yuan Shao's death.
……
Liu Bei ignored the ridicule and sarcasm in the comments on the screen. He just felt guilty and shed tears from time to time.
"It was me. I didn't listen to Ma Jichang's words... and caused countless soldiers to lose their lives in vain."
Those who are involved in the matter are often confused, while those who are not involved can see things clearly. Liu Bei was standing outside the situation at this time and was not blinded by anger and hatred. He certainly knew that such an approach would be tantamount to exposing his own shortcomings to the enemy.
"A place with lush forests and mountains..." As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present understood why Lu Xun was able to burn down the entire camp.
"The battle line is too long. It's not advisable." Fa Zheng stood aside and shook his head.
Ma Liang followed behind Zhuge Liang, who was comforting Ma Liang at this time.
"You tried your best."
