Chapter 56 Cao Pi abolished the emperor and usurped Liu Nanye's righteous re-establishment of troops 9

Sun Quan was defeated by Cao Zhang for a while, damaging tens of thousands of troops. He was frightened and wanted to return the troops. At this time, Lu Meng made a statement to stop Sun Quan.

Lv Meng said to Sun Quan and the generals in the account, "The lord sent troops this time to fight against justice. If he is defeated for a while, how can he see his determination to resist? This is one of them. Second, the lord has made an appointment with the Guanghua Master and the King of Guanzhong. If the appointment does not come, will he not lose faith? Third, if the lord comes back, I will get nothing in this battle. If you don't return it, you can share the autumn color with the master of Xuchang City and the king of Hanzhong. Therefore, at this time, the returning soldiers make people laugh, and it is the best policy not to return.

Sun Quan wanted to return to the army. First, he was afraid of losing face in front of Nan Ye and Liu Bei. But at this time, when he heard Lv Meng say, he found that it was more humiliating to lead the army back than to go to the alliance, so he gave up the idea of returning to the army and asked Lv Meng, "What Ziming said is very true! But I agreed with the national teacher and Xuande to bring 100,000 soldiers each, but now there are only 40,000 left. What if the two ask how to answer?

Lv Meng asked with a smile, "What's the matter with you?"

Sun Quan was stunned and said, "Naturally, he came to fight against Cao Pi, a traitor."

Lv Meng said, "That's it! The lord came to fight against Cao Pi and lost soldiers and generals because of the battle with him. How can the national division and the king of Guanzhong complain that the lord has not contributed? What's more, not one of Cao's army was not damaged in this battle. The lord said that he also killed tens of thousands of Cao's army and weakened the soldiers in the city. Let's see what else the two have to say.

Sun Quan was stunned when he heard the words, and then laughed and said, "Yes! Yes! This battle is the first battle of the three armies to attack Xuchang! I am the pioneer of the three families!"

Sometimes this is the case, and there will be different conclusions from different perspectives. Before Sun Quan counted this battle as an alliance meeting, he felt that the other two families took 100,000 soldiers and horses to Xuchang City and lost face with 40,000. However, Lv Meng counted this battle in the siege after the alliance meeting, believing that each of the three families sent 100,000 soldiers to attack Cao, and Cao Pi first attacked Sun Quan, which made Sun Quan lose soldiers and generals, rather than soldiers and horses. The difference of a single thought is thousands of miles away, which is probably the case.

After listening to Lv Meng's words, Sun Quan also felt that the casualties in this battle were no different from those during the siege, and there was nothing to be ashamed of. So he ordered to continue the army and ordered people to inform Nanye, Liu Bei and Zhou Yu, who guarded the battle.

Nan Ye chose to pass through Yuzhou soldiers to Xuchang, so he had already joined forces with Liu Bei. As soon as Sun Quan's messenger arrived, Nan Ye and Liu Bei were shocked. I didn't expect that Li Ru, who faced the passive defense of the army, could take the initiative to attack.

Liu Bei sent the messenger away and frowned and said to Nan Ye, "I didn't expect Cao Zhang to be so brave that he would make Sun Zhong lose his troops."

Before Nan Ye could speak, Zhang Fei said aside, "Brother, you don't need to worry too much. Cao Zhang is just a yellow-mouthed child. I'm willing to fight to capture my brother."

Nan Ye smiled and said, "Cao Zhang is naturally not a rival to Yide, but if you go out, won't you bully the big one? How would Li Ru make Cao Zhang fight you?"

Zhuge Liang shook his hand and fan and said, "What the national teacher said is not bad. No matter how brave Cao Zhang is, he is not the enemy of the generals, but Li Ru has been in Xuchang for many years, which is really not easy to deal with. I don't know if the national teacher has a clever plan to break the city?"

What Nan Ye dislikes the most is the siege of the city. If it is a field battle, Nan Ye's skills can find the enemy in advance and prevent him from being ambushed by the enemy, but he can't use his skills in the siege battle. He is still waiting for Zhuge Liang to find a way. So he said to Zhuge Liang, "I don't have a plan to break the city yet. If Mr. Kong Ming has a clever plan in mind, I should follow the plan."

When Zhuge Liang saw that Nan Ye was willing to listen to his plan, he couldn't help smiling and said, "The national teacher is still helpless. What can I do? It's better to go to Xuchang to meet the Eastern Wu soldiers and horses before making a plan.

Nan Ye and Liu Bei have nothing to do for the time being, so they can only go to Xuchang first. 200,000 soldiers and horses went to Xuchang City to camp. On that day, Sun Quan's soldiers and horses also arrived, and the three soldiers and horses were assigned. Nanye camped in the south of the city, Liu Bei was in the east of the city, and Sun Quan was in the west of the city, leaving the north gate alone. The standard method of encircling the three gates and one by one.

Cao Zhang saw three soldiers and horses surrounded on three sides in the city, so he said to Li Ru, "I see that Nan Ye and other generations are just like this. If the three families are in one place, we are not enemies. Now they are on guard and divide their troops into three sides, which is just broken one by one. I would like to fight in the city tonight while the enemy's foothold is unstable.

Li Ru looked at it and smiled and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, this is Nan Ye and others's plan to lure the enemy!"

Xia Houde doubted: "Three soldiers and horses, surrounded by three squares and one, the rules are normal, what is the plan?"

Li Ru said, "Sun Quan was defeated by us before, but now he is the same as Nan Ye and Liu Bei. They don't send troops to help each other. What do you think?"

Xiahou Shang said, "It must be that the three families are not at odds with each other. Sun Quan has few soldiers, and we can go out of the city to attack it.

Li Ru laughed and said, "In my opinion, this is Nan Ye showing weakness to the enemy and using Sun Quan as bait to lure us out of the city. There must have been an ambush in Sun Quan's camp.

Cao Zhang said, "Wen Xiansheng has seen through Nan Ye's plan, so we can abandon Sun Quan to attack Liu Bei."

Li Ru shook his head and said, "Nan Ye is in the middle of the strategy. If you attack the east and west battalions, Nan Ye can be rescued. If you attack Nanye Zhongying, you can also echo left and right. I can't wait, that's the best strategy."

The city did not move, but Sun Quan, who was careful to guard against the night in the city. It is indeed Zhuge Liang's plan to guard one door. There is great injustice hidden in the seemingly fair distribution method in order to lure the enemy out of the city. Unexpectedly, he was seen through by Li Ru.

Sun Quan stayed up all night and his eyes turned red. The next morning, he came to Nanye's tent and had a meeting with Liu Bei and Nanye. As soon as he saw Zhuge Liang, he complained, "Mr. Kong Ming's plan is useless to Cao Jun. What should we do?"

Zhuge Liang's first plan seems to be intentional and unintentional. For example, Nanye is still very impressed, or he will not follow the plan. The failure of Cao's army in the city can only show that Li Ru is cautious and outstanding in strategy, and it cannot be said that Zhuge Liang's strategy is not good.

Hearing Sun Quan's complaint, Nan Ye spoke for Zhuge Liang: "The plan is in the people, and the success is in the sky. Mr. Kong Ming's plan was approved by us yesterday. The city guards did not win, so there is no need to blame one person. I'll think about it later."

Zhuge Liang nodded slightly to Nan Ye, which was regarded as thanking Nan Ye for relieving the siege. Sun Quan also understood that he could not completely blame Zhuge Liang about this matter, so he said to the generals in the account, "Who else has a plan, just say it frankly."

Lv Meng listened to Sun Quan's question and said first, "You can send a sergeant to build a mountain to attack the city."

Wei Yan said, "You can erect a cloud ladder, build a rainbow bridge, and attack it condescendingly."

Zhang Fei said, "Why is it so troublesome? When our army first arrived, its morale was sharp, and it was just vigorous to attack. I would like to lead troops to kill the city and break it in one day.
