There was a silence in the hall, and Lu Xundu couldn't help but speak.

Ten soldiers from Yan State were asked to leave the hall to wait. Sun Quan put down his letter and sighed: "This matter is beyond my expectations. Please read Bo Yan, a child from Liaodong has such insights."

Lu Xun took it and read it, and wrote words such as "Saint Emperor of Wu", "General Lu Boyan", "People's visit", "Gongsun, Liaodong, and other words. His words were extremely humble. It seemed that when he wrote a letter, he knew that not only Sun Quan could read this letter, but he could even count it.

"I am so frightened that I bow my head to see you: In the past, the King of Yan was offended and disrespectful to Wu, so I apologized for this. Now I will transfer the general to the head of the Wei bandits, and I will transfer your Majesty thousands of miles away. I hope that your Majesty will send troops to Liaodong, take the opportunity to harass the Wei bandits and rob the southeast. Cao Wei will retreat soon, Sima Yi will capture him. If Your Majesty does not take advantage of the chaos of Cao Wei, he will lose his opportunity to collect the world..."

When Lu Xun read this, he couldn't help laughing out loud, thinking: "It's clear that he is here to ask for help, but he said that I, Dongwu, have made a big advantage. This person is good at using the Spring and Autumn style, and he skips it lightly and does not mention it."

But the more I read, the more extraordinary he felt. Gongsun Xiu not only did not talk about rescue and dispatch troops, but only asked the Eastern Wu to send troops.

In the letter, Gongsun Xiu pointed out that if the Eastern Wu could divide his troops into two groups, one would disturb the southeast, and the other would be the navy to go north and attack Sima Yi in Liaodong. In order to provide convenience for the Northern Expedition of the Eastern Wu, he would be willing to hand over the good horses from Liaodong, and then the Eastern Wu would take Jingzhou. Yan State would focus on protecting Liaodong and plan to take strategies from western Liaoning and Qingzhou.

Lu Xun was very novel and said, "I have some insights. But the lord of Liaodong is Gongsun Yuan. Although the prince has a strange strategy, what can he say? If this person is the leader, he will have the spirit of a general and a talent, ten times better than his father. But Gongsun Yuan is short-sighted and has no strategy and cannot be trusted."

Sun Quan stroked his purple beard and pondered: "Since he used Liaodong horses as rewards and asked me to send troops to help Liao, this is good. Eastern Wu has always lacked horses. If he gets a good horse, he can equip infantry and cavalry, and his chances of winning against Cao Wei will increase greatly."

Lu Xun deeply agreed that the Eastern Wu was in a corner and had no place to raise horses, so he had to use the Yangtze River as a barrier. If the Northern Expedition was not done without a large number of cavalry, it would be impossible. If Gongsun provided war horses, everyone would naturally be happy.

"Your Majesty means: send troops to Liaodong?" Lu Xun asked.

Sun Quan chuckled and said, "Now that the Wei army is defeated, Sima Yi is expeditioning to Liaodong again. The front line is too long and must not last long. Since Gongsun Xiu is willing to send his war horses with Liaodong, I will not send troops, and morality and interests are not understandable. Liaodong is thousands of miles away. Our army will carry the war horses back when entering Liaodong. The situation will be determined by the situation."

The five words "depending on the situation" have a lot of room for operation.

Lu Xun immediately understood that His Majesty's meaning was very clear. If the Wei army was in full swing, it would be a watcher. If the Yan army could gain the upper hand, it would help Yan fight against Wei.

In short, no matter what, we must send troops to bring the war horses back to Jiangdong.

Your Majesty never engages in losing money.

Lu Xun thought so in his heart.

Gu Yong, the prime minister of the Eastern Wu, said at the right time: "Your Majesty, how many troops are we going to dispatch?"

"The navy commanders of 30,000 are on the coast. This is a way to solve the urgent needs of Liaodong and lead to war horses."

Sun Quan closed his eyes and pondered, opened his eyes, and said, "Thirty thousand troops attacked and harassed Hefei and plundered the population of Cao Wei. This is the second way."

When Gu Yong heard that he was going to dispatch 60,000 troops and raid for a long distance, he was very worried: "For this, he dispatched nearly half of the troops of Dawu. I hope Your Majesty will think twice."

Sun Quan and Zi Wang were all hung up, and he smiled and said, "My intention has been decided, so there is no need to say much. Bo Yan led his army to attack Hefei, and Zhuge Jin led his army north to help Yan. I am waiting for you to return triumphantly in Jianye."

When Lu Xun heard this, he avoided the seat and bowed to the ground, and said in a deep voice: "I am humble to receive the order."

——

When Sima Yi saw Potian, he showed a look of surprise on his face: "Is this bow shooting the rear general?"

Hu Zun nodded: "This is what Wang Chang salvaged from the sea. It is indeed a crossbow used by the Yan army. The Yan army called this kind of crossbow " "Potian Yan".

In terms of both magic tricks and strange tricks, Sima Yi only admired Zhuge Liang throughout his life and suffered the loss of Zhuge's crossbow in the Battle of Wei and Shu.

The difference is that if the crossbow is fired ten arrows, the range is not long and the loading is slow. In actual combat, it is basically too late to continue loading after using it once, so it is not able to be equipped on a large scale.

The Shenshen is different. The range is 700 steps away. Siege and defend the city are excellent weapons. You can easily shoot arrows on the enemy's city into a hornet's nest.

Sima Yi circled around Shen Yan several times, nodded and said, "Down with trees immediately, and ordered the craftsman to imitate it. Twenty days later, before launching the attack on Liao Tunnel, I will see five hundred Shen Yan with my own eyes."

Hu Zun clasped his fist and said, "Don't worry, this bow is simple, and the craftsman can make it with a glance, without any difficulty."

Sima Yi sighed: "The craftsman is imitation, not originality. It is not difficult to create this magical sacred man, but it is difficult to create from scratch from scratch. Pass the order and quickly equip it."

Just as the Wei army imitated Potian, Gongsun Xiu finally received news from the Eastern Wu: Zhuge Jin led 30,000 navy troops north to help Yan fight Wei.

As soon as this news came out, the Yan army was shocked.

Yang Zuo said happily: "I didn't expect that Sun Quan would ignore his past grudges and was willing to send troops to fight against Wei."

Gongsun Xiu smiled and said, "No, it's not that Sun Quan is generous. In my letter, I promised to send troops to help Yan, and I would give it back with the Liaodong war horses."

Yang Zuo's face suddenly changed: "Liaodong war horses are gifted? I'm afraid this is inappropriate?"

Although Liaodong is a place to raise horses, war horses are also the most scarce and precious materials among the thirteen states, especially during the Three Kingdoms period when they were conquered for years.

Between the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu, only the Wei state had the conditions to produce horses and herd horses. Shu and Wu did not have such a natural environment.

Yang Zuo was still immersed in the joy of the Eastern Wu participating in the war. He did not expect that he was so promising. The only valuable property in Liaodong actually had to be exchanged. He couldn't help but feel sad: "Isn't this a condition for the Eastern Wu lion to speak out?"

Gongsun Xiu saw Yang Zuo's grief and patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "General Yang, a real man should not act like a daughter. Although I promised Sun Quan to send him a war horse with Liaodong, forcing him to send troops to Liaodong. However, the war horses have not been delivered to him. If Sun Quan takes it seriously to help Yan fight against Wei, it doesn't matter if he gives him ten thousand war horses. If he fights badly, he will be merciless to Cao Wei everywhere and refuses to work hard. I will execute him myself if he sends it or not."

Yang Zuo smiled bitterly and said, "Will you offend Dongwu again if you do this?"

"The front line between Eastern Wu and Liaodong is longer, and he has to pass by the boundary of Wei and has no border with Liaodong. Even if he was deceived by us, he could only pinch his nose and recognize him."

Gongsun Xiu shrugged and said indifferently: "I don't really believe that Eastern Wu can help us repel Sima Yi. Guan Yu, who was so brave that he was so powerful in China, and Cao Cao planned to move the capital to avoid his edge. Didn't he be stabbed from behind by Eastern Wu?"

Yang Zuo nodded as if he understood it, "What does the prince mean?"

"Sun Quan is willing to help Liaodong. Let's just send some horses away. I predict that the Wei Kingdom will be in chaos at the latest next year. We can take the opportunity to go south and get some benefits."

No matter how hard you endure, you will have to endure until the day when Emperor Ming of Wei Cao Rui dies.

Once Cao Rui dies, Sima Yi, who is leading the army, will definitely rush back to Luoyang to attend the funeral.

I can only pull Dongwu into the water together.
