Chapter 496 : It's too much tossing people!
Although he relied on the strength of Jin State to show his power, Lu Wu really did not lose.
If you are not the main player, victory or defeat actually has little to do with the increase in someone's reputation.
Lu Wu has served as the chief general more than once, and his reputation has gradually emerged because of the attack on Qi and the continuous expeditions of Qin.
The "Yanling Battle" between Yang Youji and Pan's Party? This war only allowed Lu Wu to truly step on the "international" stage, focusing on the eyes of heroes in the world, showing only personal bravery and no ability to command troops.
Using two first-class powers as stepping stones to achieve reputation is definitely worth ten percent. In terms of resume, it is also unique among the six current "Qing" in Jin State.
Therefore, it is not a fault for the king that he felt guilty if Lu Wu had not gone south, and he did not dare to set up a formation with Chu State.
During the Yuanrong, Xingyan did not have a history of leading troops alone to win a great victory. On the contrary, he did not have a record of being able to achieve success when he was a deputy.
When the Central Army Saint-Shi Shi was the "Qing" in the beginning, he was in the aftermath of the Jin Dynasty's chaos, and he used troops abroad only to make small fuss. With his position and height, he could not create any prestige in small fuss.
Not to mention the lower army general Cheng Zheng and lower army assistant Zhao Wu, both of them have just obtained the position of nobles and are "newbies". While they want to be awesome, they must first consider whether their own strength will be allowed.
Before he was appointed as the throne, Wei Qi, the military officer, was known for his courage to fight and fight. The "Battle of Yanling" was also his highlight moment. He was slightly more famous than Lu Wu in terms of reputation alone.
This is because Wei Qi shot Chu Junxiong Shen with an arrow and shot Chu Junxiong Shen into a one-eyed dragon.
If Wei Qi can choose, it would be better if he doesn't want a reputation like "Monster Killer".
The reputation of harming a king of a country is a burden, but he has not died. In a modern sentence, it should be like "I'm so drunk".
In any era or dynasty, it is not a good thing to bear the title of "Monday Killer"!
How dare the king of a country kill?
I am also the king of a country! Will I be on the list one day???
You can imagine Wei Qi's mood, maybe he is lucky and sad?
After stripping this layer, you can immediately understand the situation of Wei, understand why Wei is not aggressive, willing to form an alliance with Yin, and accept the situation dominated by Yin.
To put it bluntly, Wei needs to be low-key and repay Lu Wu's kindness to save Wei Qi, which is a kind of character setting, and eating meat and drinking soup.
So, what bicycle do you want?
No matter what Lu Wu wants, as long as there are no examples of heavy losses, Wei will play with him.
Seeing that the season was about to enter summer, the army gathered in "Ganquan" still showed no sign of moving.
It is not only Qin that is uncomfortable, but Jin and other vassal states that are paying attention to are not much better.
They are still waiting for the fight to start in the west, and they want to do something to do.
During this period, Lu Wu finally gave Yan Ruo, who had traveled several times on behalf of Qi, and accepted Qi's request to release Qi's army as "hostages".
Outsiders only knew that Lu Wu returned the Qi army that had been under control for more than three years, but they did not know that Yan Ruo was stunned when he accepted the Qi army.
It was clearly two reorganized Qi "army" and there were only less than 8,000 people left in three years.
Of course, Lu Wu can't be so ugly in his appearance.
He told Yan Ruo that the remaining Qi army did not mean to detain and not return it, but it was just that it was difficult to gather it out for the time being. Then there were losses in the expedition strategy several times, and some Qi soldiers also fled intermittently, so...
This explanation can be said to be a bit far-fetched, but it must not be completely unreasonable.
Yan Ruo thought that the Qi army followed Lu Wu repeatedly and could get more or less spoils every time, and felt that Lu Wu was a person who handled things fairly.
Next, Qi State's current national policy is to make friends with Lu Wu. Anything that is not too ugly is not to be too ugly, and some matters can be seen.
The State of Qi really wants to break up with Lu Wu? It depends on whether the Yin and Wei win or lose this time in the Western Expedition. How beautiful the victory is, how ugly the defeat is.
Lu Wu stopped stationing his troops and returned the Qi army, which made the bystanders really unable to understand what Lu Wu was trying to do.
Time will never stop, it will only pass.
Summer has arrived as scheduled, but the entire "Eastern World" has not become restless because the weather has become hot.
south.
Chu taught Chen a lesson and chose to stop the army, and continued to confront Wu in "Jize". It was rare that the Song Dynasty did not choose to advance because of the alliance.
Zheng Guo, who was blown up by Jin two years ago, licked his wound silently and ignored him when he closed the door.
After Song moved closer to Jin again, he realized that Chu would never give up. He frequently sent envoys to "Xintian" and stepped up preparations for war at the other side.
East.
The Ju and the Zhu Kingdoms (Dazhu), which had declared war on Lu, were playing a kind of declaration without war.
The State of Lu sent troops into the territory of the country; the State of Xu chose to lie down and wait for which powerful country to speak, so that the country would survive.
The State of Qi declared war on the State of Lai last year, and fought a battle of little or no matter how big it was. After the arrival of winter, the Qi army did not withdraw its troops; this year, as the flowers bloomed, the two sides fought again, but the war stopped completely as summer approached.
Wei and Cao also have their own roles.
Cao Junji Fuchu didn't know what was wrong, and Song State himself didn't say anything, but he asked Wei State to hand over the cities obtained from Song State to Song State.
Wei State obtained some cities of Song State.
The last time Song State was facing a critical need for support, Jin State could not get rid of its body due to civil strife. Wei Junwei jumped out as the "leader" to lead troops to rescue Song State. In order to thank Wei State for sending troops to rescue him, Song State gave him a gift.
The sincere love sent by the State of Song is sincere.
Wei Guo was happy to win.
By the way, what is the matter of Guan Cao Junji?
Thinking of Cao Junji Fuchu's consortium with Wei Junwei, he was detained immediately, he could immediately know why Cao Junji Fuchu did that thing.
Cao Junji Fuchu performed for a while, but the relationship between Cao and Wei was tense. Both sides were sending envoys to play snoring games, which made Song Guo a little overwhelmed.
Most of Lu Wu, who was waiting patiently for the opportunity, paid attention to Qin State, and would inevitably receive news from domestic and various countries. It would be a kind of relaxation to read and listen to it.
What he felt most strange was that Qin had not attacked "Wuyang".
The Qin army had not completely surrounded "Wuyang" before, leaving behind a city gate that could be entered and exited, and provided garrisons in the city to go out to chop firewood and get water.
The army of the Yin and Wei clans have been stationed in Ganquan and showed no sign of march. There seemed to be smart people on the Qin side, proposing to completely surround "Wuyang" and they really did that.
"The only drawback is that the Qin army did not command troops to attack the city." Lu Wu thought to himself.
The number of defenders of the "Wuyang" who was lonely was the two "brigades" of the Yin clan and one "brigade" of the Wei clan, plus the number of auxiliary soldiers was about 7,000.
They are not just eating and sleeping, but they repeatedly strengthen urban defenses and stockpile supplies by seizing opportunities.
In addition, when Lu Wu retreated his troops and returned to his country, there were not many supplies left in "Wuyang".
He dared to leave the army in Qin State and did not dare to say that everything was arranged properly. How could he not prepare for the army to become an isolated army?
Therefore, unless there is an irresistible accident, it should not be a big problem for the "Wuyang" garrison to persist for two months.
"General of the Army." Wei Jiang would come to Lu Wu every day. At first, he would ask when he would march, but later he would not ask.
Lu Wu looked at Wei Jiang and asked, "What's the matter?"
Wei Jiang said: "He came with two 'trams' and was already entering the camp."
It didn't say it was reinforcements, it meant what it meant.
Lu Wu thought in surprise: "It seems that as time goes by, Wei has begun to lack confidence."
The upside is that even if Wei's confidence is shaken, he is doing more troops rather than withdrawing troops.
Soon, Wei Xiang came to Lu Wu's side and said after seeing the ceremony: "There are many troubles in the country, and they are all talking about the Western Expedition."
Lu Wu laughed a few times and said, "The Central Army will be impatient to treat Yiluo's Rong as a meal on the plate."
Wei made a judgment immediately without any surprise, and added, saying, "Yuan Rong asked me to ask in private, let Zheng, Chen Keye?"
Zheng and Chen should move closer to Jin. Now Zhongxingyan is talking about this and asks whether Lu Wu wants to fight the West. He has the intention of urging him to give him a clear answer as soon as possible.
In a certain way, it means that Wei Xiang will not participate in the Western Expedition and will have to go back to "Xintian" after the matter is completed.
Lu Wu was about to speak when a notification came from outside.
Pu Yuan, who was allowed, came in and said happily: "Master, a report came from the front, and the Qin army headed eastward and then turned westward."
He was originally a counselor of Xizhi, but later he returned to the Yin family and needed to be downplayed and precipitated. After coming to the Yin family, he had a weak presence and became active recently.
Twenty days ago, Lu Wu had already learned that the Qin army was heading east and had preparations for the battle, but he knew in his heart that the Qin army would not really come up recklessly.
Now Pu Yuan’s report confirms that Lu Wu is indeed wrong.
Has the situation changed, or is it a development that is beneficial to them?
With a look of all control, Lu Wu said: "In this way, when we passed our military order, Huo was good at leading three thousand cavalry as the 'foreign power'; I personally led a 'foreign power' to the 'in-the-clock power'; Wei Jiang led the remaining troops to the 'foreign power'."
The order sounds quite simple. The real situation is that you have prepared a preparatory plan in advance. How to do it after repeated deductions, just act like a plan.
The Yin and Wei armies stationed in "Ganquan" can be considered a start, and everyone who has been paying attention to them immediately got the news.
The Qin army, who were returning east and west, were not blind. When they saw the Yin cavalry that suddenly appeared, they were not very happy to say what they were in. They stopped retreating west and chose to camp on the spot for Lu Wu to lead his army to arrive.
However, after learning that the Qin army was stationed, Lu Wu simply stopped going west after he marched to "Liyang".
His actions made the bystanders confused, making no one in the Qin army feel uncomfortable.
