At this time, Mi Yang didn't know that Sun Quan was coming to the public security city in person. Since that day's ambush battle, he and Lu Meng had been living in peace and harmony.
It’s been almost ten days now. In the past ten days, in addition to patrolling the city every day, Mi Yang had been observing the movements in the Jiangdong military camp outside the city.
But what is very strange is that after that night, Lü Meng neither gathered an army to attack the city nor withdrew his troops.
He just maintained the posture of surrounding the city so quietly that Mi Yang was a little confused.
Could it be that Lu Meng was mad to death? Lu Meng died of illness around this time in history.
Even after he captured Jingzhou, Lu Meng died of illness before Sun Quan could issue a reward to him, which shows how serious his condition was.
But Mi Yang did not lead his troops out of the city to attack the Jiangdong camp as Shamoko suggested. After all, the enemy's situation is unknown, and it would be detrimental to him to send troops rashly.
There are still tens of thousands of Jiangdong troops camped outside Gong'an City, and Mi Yang doesn't have many troops in his hands. The five thousand barbarian soldiers were wild and difficult to train, so they could only be used in times of crisis. They could not be commanded as smoothly as their own direct line soldiers.
After all, Lu Meng is a famous general with many years of experience. It is lucky to be able to set up an ambush and severely damage him. It would be too difficult to defeat a camp with tens of thousands of troops stationed frontally with a weak force.
Do you think Lu Meng is Sun Quan? At this time, Guan Ping came to Mi Yang's side. He saw Mi Yang looking towards the enemy camp. He said to Mi Yang,
"Zicheng, are there no signs of the Lu thieves withdrawing their troops yet?" Mi Yang shook his head and said with some confusion,
"According to common sense, Lu Thief should choose to retreat after this defeat."
"But I just don't know why there is no action yet." Although Mi Yang is smart and has some advantages as a prophet, he does not have clairvoyance after all.
He didn't know that Lu Meng vomited blood and fainted that night. He didn't know that Lu Meng was still recuperating and could not get up to arrange the withdrawal of the army. He was waiting for Lu Xun to lead his troops.
Although she was confused, Mi Yang was not too worried. After all, anyone who knows a little bit about the art of war knows that retreating is the best way now, and Lu Meng certainly doesn't know this.
If he is not retreating now, he may be reporting to Sun Quan first and waiting for a reply. But just when Mi Yang and Guan Ping were about to turn around and return to the county government, he suddenly saw a large flag slowly rising everywhere in the Jiangdong camp opposite.
The big flag was wrapped with gold wire on all sides, and the flag was entirely purple. In the big flag, there was a big word written in flying phoenixes.
The word "grandson". Xu Xiang, who was Sun Quan's closest minister and friend, wrote the "Book of Defeating Sun" in great detail in order to survive.
When Sun Quan succeeded to the throne at a young age, he lacked prestige, so in order to show his dignity, he deliberately gave special treatment in every aspect to show that he was different from the Jiangdong generals.
For example, Sun Quan's handsome flag was specially made: gold edge and purple background, with dragon flying as Sun. So when he saw Sun Quan Shuaiqi, who was consistent with Xu Xiang's description, Mi Yang immediately realized something.
Sun Quan actually came in person? ! Looking at Sun Quan's handsome flag fluttering in the wind and showing off his grace to the fullest, Mi Yang suddenly called Guan Ping,
"Be honest!" Guan Ping: "Huh?" Mi Yang took a long breath, and then tried his best to calm down his emotions, and said, "I would like to pass on the story with me, and let the same name stay in history!"
"Hmm? Hmm! Hmm! Hmm!..." Upon hearing this, Guan Ping was a little confused at first, and then a look of strong willingness immediately appeared on his face.
Although he didn't know why Mi Yang said this to him, he knew that all the cakes Mi Yang drew for him came true.
...At this moment, in Lü Meng's camp of Jiangdong Army, many doctors were coming in and out of Lü Meng's bed, with heavy looks on their faces.
Lu Meng's condition is getting worse and worse, I think it will happen in the next few days. Among these doctors, Yu Fan knew the most, so his expression was also the heaviest.
Lu Meng's health was deteriorating, but Lu Xun, whom Lu Meng relied on, had not yet arrived with his army. If Lu Meng were to go, then the tens of thousands of Jiangdong troops would be faced with a situation where people's hearts were floating again.
Just when Yu Fan was worried and thinking about the current situation in Jiangdong in front of the bed, a tall figure appeared in front of Yu Fan.
Yu Fan couldn't help but show anger on his face when he saw someone dared to enter without being summoned. Who is so bold!
Yu Fan raised his head and looked at this man, but when he saw his appearance, he immediately lowered his head and paid homage to him.
Who else could this tall man who dared to enter without being summoned be Sun Quan? Sun Quan had just arrived outside Jiangdong Camp. After he arrived outside Jiangdong Camp, he immediately found Han Dang first.
Lu Meng had already informed in his letter that during his serious illness, the real person in charge of the tens of thousands of troops in Jiangdong was Han Dang.
When Han Dang saw Sun Quan, he, who had been under pressure for a long time, immediately cried and knelt in front of Sun Quan.
Once Sun Quan comes, the military will feel at ease. Facing Han Dang's kneeling and crying, Sun Quan first comforted him, and then ordered him to hang his flag high in the Jiangdong camp to appease the morale of the army.
And he ordered all the generals in the army to immediately go outside Lü Meng's army tent and wait for his summons. After arranging these two things, Sun Quan quickly came to Lu Meng's military tent to visit his favorite general.
But unexpectedly, he saw Yu Fan first in the military tent. Looking at Yu Fan in front of him, Sun Quan's mind instantly recalled the unpleasant memories between him and Yu Fan.
When he first inherited Jiangdong, his clan relative Sun Hao rebelled and wanted to separate Kuaiji County and establish himself. This rebellion was easily put down due to the strategy of Yu Fan, the then Kuaiji hero.
Because of this contribution, Sun Quan originally admired Yu Fan very much. As soon as he stabilized Jiangdong, he made Yu Fan the captain of cavalry.
Unexpectedly, after Sun Quan made Yu Fan a close minister, Yu Fan thought that Sun Quan was as open-minded as Sun Ce, so he advised him many times, and his words were quite bold, which made Sun Quan very unhappy.
Finally, Sun Quan couldn't bear it anymore and dismissed him from all his official positions and drove him back to Kuaiji. Now, Sun Quan met Yu Fan, whom he had not seen for many days, in Lü Meng's military tent. Sun Quan was obviously not happy when the bad memories were brought back to him.
Yu Fan also knew that he was hated by Sun Quan, so he left voluntarily after bowing slightly to Sun Quan.
Watching Yu Fan's leaving figure, Sun Quan couldn't help but think of the suggestion that Yu Fan made that day that really angered him.
"It is in line with human ethics to attack a noble with a son!" Brother, you have been dead for so many years, and there are still many ministers who are thinking of you...such as Zhang Zhao and Yu Fan.
Sun Quan suppressed some fears and thoughts in his heart deeply, and then he sat next to Lu Meng's couch and looked at his confidant general who single-handedly brought Jiangdong into crisis.
Before coming, Sun Quan was full of anger, confusion, and disappointment towards Lu Meng. But most of these emotions dissipated when he saw that Lu Meng was now as skinny as a stick, like a candle in the wind.
Unlike Zhang Zhao and Yu Fan, although Lu Meng became an official when his brother was in power in Jiangdong, it was he who really promoted and valued him.
Moreover, he was kind to Lu Meng in educating him, so Lu Meng was considered his direct descendant. Now that Sun Quan saw that one of his most trusted direct descendants had ended up like this, Sun Quan's heart ached.
If Lu Meng dies, will Shu Lang and other clan members be able to use him? Sun Quan had no idea. While Sun Quan was sitting by the couch and meditating, Lu Meng, who was sleeping, slowly woke up due to illness.
When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Sun Quan sitting next to him. After seeing Sun Quan suddenly beside his bed, Lu Meng's face first showed a look of surprise, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face.
He wanted to get up and pay homage to Sun Quan, but unfortunately as his health got worse and worse, he now didn't even have the slightest bit of strength.
But he still made some noise, which disturbed Sun Quan's contemplation. Sun Quan looked at the couch because of the noise. He saw that Lu Meng had woken up, and there was a little joy on his majestic face.
"Ziming." Hearing Sun Quan whisper his cousin's name, Lu Meng couldn't help but feel guilty on his face.
He said to Sun Quan ashamedly in a hoarse voice,
"Supreme, Meng is incompetent. He couldn't take down the police for you, but he harmed the three generals of the Supreme. Meng deserves to die." Although Lu Meng couldn't get up, the shame and sadness in his words made Sun Quan a little moved.
Lu Meng was now seriously ill, and Sun Quan did not want to criticize him too harshly. Sun Quan comforted Lu Meng in a slow voice and said,
"Victory or defeat is standard issue."
"The thieves are cunning and can get into trouble at the moment, so there is no need for Ziming to be too concerned."
"As for the death of the three generals, they were all the fault of one thief. I will definitely capture and kill them to avenge Gong Fu and others. Don't worry, Zi Ming." Sun Quan is a typical character with obvious love and hatred.
When he likes a person, no matter what big mistake he makes, Sun Quan will be tolerant. Especially since Lü Meng could die at any time now, Sun Quan didn't want Lü Meng to worry too much about defeat and let his condition continue to worsen.
After all, at this time, he still needs Lu Meng's presence to intimidate the powerful Jiangdong family. After Sun Quan finished pacifying Lu Meng, he was about to leave to let him have a good rest.
Unexpectedly, Lu Meng took the initiative to speak to Sun Quan at this time,
"Does Your Majesty come here to personally preside over the retreat?" Facing Lu Meng's question, Sun Quan pondered for a while and then replied,
"Otherwise. Our army cannot retreat for the time being." Upon hearing Sun Quan's words, Lu Meng thought that Sun Quan wanted to continue attacking the public security forces again. He couldn't help but dragged his sick body to persuade Sun Quan,
"Supreme!"
"The morale of our army has been reduced. The public security city is strong and has strong morale. It is no longer something that our army can capture."
"The most urgent task is to retreat back to Jiangdong to recuperate and recuperate for the future. At this time, you must not act out of emotion." Faced with Lu Meng's advice, Sun Quan had the intention to explain, but he thought that the discussions between him and Zhang Zhao were secret.
In addition, Lu Meng was seriously ill now, and he didn't want him to worry too much, so he didn't say anything more. He just stood up silently and walked towards the outside of the tent.
Looking at Sun Quan's insistent back, Lu Meng couldn't help but become anxious. He looked at Sun Quan's back, called the Supreme Being continuously, and said continuously
These five words are "not available to the public security". Sun Quan was depressed because of the defeat of the Public Security Bureau. Now Lu Meng keeps talking behind his back
"The police are not available", these were the five words he least wanted to hear at this moment. Ever since, at a certain critical point, Sun Quan broke out.
Having reached the entrance of the tent, he immediately turned to look at Lu Meng. There was already anger gathering in his eyes. He looked at Lu Meng, whom he had trusted so much in the past, and said loudly: "The police are not available? How about Hefei?"
"It was you who remonstrated with Liu Gongjing."
"It was you who told Gujingzhou that it was easy to get."
"It was you who told Gu Hefei that it would be useless even if he took it." Every time Sun Quan said a word, he took a step forward and approached Lu Meng.
And with every step he took, the anger in his heart grew stronger.
"Gu trusts you. Gu has given you a trust that neither Gongjin nor Zijing has ever had."
"I will leave Jiangdong's 100,000-strong army and one hundred elite warriors in your hands, but how will you repay me?"
"If you want soldiers, I will give you soldiers. If you want food and grass, I will raise them for you even if you offend all Jiangdong families."
"I have devoted all the strength of the Jiangdong country to support you in fighting this battle, but how do you repay me!" When he said this last sentence, Sun Quan had already approached Lu Meng.
At this time, Sun Quan's anger, unwillingness, sadness and other emotions turned into the momentum of the Lord of Jiangdong and pressed against the seriously ill Lu Meng. The pressure made Lu Meng, who was already seriously ill, cough violently.
After coughing, blood streaks appeared. Sun Quan had complaints against Lu Meng. He had been worried that Lu Meng was seriously ill before, so he never had an attack.
But under Lu Meng's repeated stimulation, the complaints in Sun Quan's heart could no longer be suppressed. When he finally came to Lu Meng and looked at Lu Meng who was coughing violently, Sun Quan no longer felt any pity in his heart.
Emotions are as changeable as the weather in Jiangnan in summer, which is Sun Quan's biggest character trait. Sun Quan leaned in front of Lu Meng and said almost word for word,
"Ziming, from the day you and I, the emperor and our ministers, raised the army, there was no way out in Jiangdong."
"The eternal infamy cannot be erased from the history books."
"I am not afraid of the infamy, but I only hate the infamy, which is rare in Jingzhou."
"Even if Gu wants to retreat now, will those Jiangdong families be willing to let Gu retreat?" Sun Quan's cold tone sounded in front of Lu Meng's eyes.
At this moment, Lu Meng finally understood that Sun Quan had so much resentment towards him. This made Lu Meng, who was loyal to Sun Quan, feel extremely bitter in his heart.
Seeing that Lü Meng had stopped talking, Sun Quan finally said to Lü Meng,
"You can rest in peace."
"The military has its own plans." After saying this, Sun Quan walked out of the tent again. But at this moment, Lu Meng's angry words reached Sun Quan's ears again.
"Your Majesty, Yi Feng is brave enough to defend, so you can defend."
"And if you want to lead troops to resist the enemy, defeat the enemy and protect the country, you should use Lu Boyan." After hearing these words, Sun Quan just paused for a moment, and then opened the tent without looking back.
Lu Xun? My niece-in-law? Although he has the air of an elder and has some military exploits, he is not worthy of being appointed as the Governor of Jiangdong!
Let him take charge of Jiangdong's army personally for a while.
