Chapter 85 The Eighty-fourth Chapter of Lu Xun's camp burning seven hundred miles away Kong Ming's artful cloth of eight formations

But Han Dang and Zhou Tai came to report to Lu Xun when they found out that the former master moved the camp.Xun was overjoyed, so he led his troops to watch the movement: I saw a village on the flat ground, with less than ten thousand people, most of them were old and weak. The great book pioneer Wu Banqi.Zhou Tai said: "I regard these soldiers as child's play."I would like to attack it with General Han in two ways.If you are invincible, you are willing to be a military order.Lu Xun looked at it for a long time, pointed at it with a whip, and said, "In the valley ahead, there is a faint murderous aura; there must be an ambush below, so set up this weak soldier on the flat ground to lure my ears."You must not go out.

When the generals heard this, they all thought they were cowardly.The next day, Wu Ban led his troops to fight in front of the pass, showing off his power and insulting him endlessly; most of them took off their clothes and armor, naked, sleeping or sitting.Xu Sheng and Ding Feng entered the account and reported to Lu Xun, saying: "Shu soldiers bullied me too much!"Someone is willing to attack it!Xun laughed and said: "The public and others rely on the courage of the blood, and don't know the wonderful methods of Sun and Wu."This is also the strategy to lure the enemy: after three days, you will see his deceit.Xu Sheng said: "Three days later, he has decided to move the camp. Can he attack it?"Xun said, "I'm trying to make him move his camp."The generals smiled and retreated.After three days, the generals of the meeting closed the door to wait and see, and saw that the soldiers of Wu Ban had retreated.Xun pointed and said: "The murderous spirit is rising: Liu Bei will come out of the valley."Before he finished speaking, he saw that the Shu soldiers were all dressed up and passing by with their ancestors in their arms.When Wu Bing saw it, he was all frightened.Xun said: "I don't listen to the public attacking the squad, that's why."Now that the ambush is out, within ten days, Shu will be defeated.All the generals said: "Shu was broken in the early days; now the battalion is five or six hundred miles away, and they have been guarding each other for seven or eight months. All the key points have been firmly guarded, can they be broken?"Xun said: You don't know the art of war: preparation is the hero of the world, more resourceful, his soldiers were assembled at the beginning, and his laws are professional;Only then did the generals admire.Later generations have a poem praising it:

The barracks talk about soldiers according to "Six Secret Teachings", and arrange fragrant bait to catch whales.Three minutes is so handsome, but also looks inferior to Jiangnan Lu. But he said that Lu Xun had already decided on a strategy to destroy Shu, so he revised the paper and sent an envoy to hear about Sun Quan, saying that he could destroy Shu in a day.After reading it, he said with great joy, "there are such strange people in Jiangdong again. Why worry about being alone?"All the generals wrote a letter saying that they were cowardly, lonely and unbelievable.Looking at his words now, it is not cowardly.So Wu Bing came to meet him.

But it is said that the former master drove the water army at Xiaoting, went down the river, set up water villages along the river, and penetrated deep into Wu territory.Huang Quan remonstrated and said: "Shuijun goes down the river, it is easy to advance, but difficult to retreat."The minister is willing to be a pioneer.Your Majesty should be in the rear, so nothing will be lost.The Former Lord said: "The thief of Wu has lost his courage, and I will drive forward, what's the problem?"All the officials complained bitterly, but the First Lord refused to obey, so he divided his troops into two groups: Huang Quan was ordered to supervise the troops in the north of the Yangtze River to guard against the Wei invaders;After careful investigation, he reported to the Lord of Wei overnight, saying that the soldiers of Shu attacked Wu, and the Shuzhang company camp spanned more than 700 miles in length and width, and was divided into more than 40 villages, all of which were next to the mountains and forests. More than a hundred miles, I don't know what it means.

The Lord of Wei heard it, looked up and smiled and said: "Liu Bei will be defeated."The ministers asked the reason.Wei Zhu said: Liu Xuande doesn't know the art of war: Is there any battalion seven hundred miles away that can resist the enemy?Bao Yuanxi is dangerous and difficult ① Those who station troops are taboo in this art of war.Xuande will be defeated by Lu Xun of Eastern Wu.Within ten days, the news will arrive.The officials still don't believe it, so please send troops to prepare for it.The Lord of Wei said: "If Lu Xun wins, he will send all Wu soldiers to take Xichuan. Wu soldiers are far away, and the country is empty. I have entrusted soldiers to help in the battle. Now the three groups are marching together. Soochow is within easy reach."All worshiped, and the Lord Wei ordered Cao Ren to supervise an army out of Ruxu, Cao Xiu to supervise an army to leave the cave entrance, and Cao Zhen to supervise an army to leave Nanjun.Then I will answer it myself.Dispatch is scheduled.

Not to mention that Wei soldiers attacked Wu.Let's say that Ma Liang went to Sichuan and met Kongming, and he presented the above map and said: "Now the camp is moved to the Jiajiang River, covering 700 miles across, and more than 40 villages below, all of which are surrounded by streams and streams, where there are lush trees.The emperor ordered Liang to view Tuben with the prime minister.After Kongming saw it, he beat the case and complained, saying: "Who taught the Lord to go down to the stronghold like this?"You can kill this person!Ma Liang said: "Everything is done by the master himself, not by others."Kong Ming sighed and said: The Han Dynasty is over!Liang asked why.Kongming said: Bao Yuanxi closed his camp due to danger and obstacles. This is a big taboo of military strategists.If he attacks with fire, how can he be rescued?How can there be a company of seven hundred miles that can resist the enemy?Misfortune is not far away!Lu Xun refused to defend, and that's why.You should go to see the Son of Heaven as soon as possible, and change the camps, this is not the case.Liang said: "If the Wu army has won now, what can we do?"Kongming said: "Lu Xun dare not come after him, Chengdu can be safe."Liang said: "Why don't you chase after me?"Kongming said: "I'm afraid that Wei soldiers will attack later."If the lord makes a mistake, he should throw himself into Baidi City to avoid it.When I entered Sichuan, 100,000 soldiers had already laid down in Yufupu.Liang was shocked and said: "I have traveled to Yufupu several times, but I have never seen a single soldier. Why did the prime minister make such a lie?"Kongming said, "I'll see you later, so I don't need to ask more questions."Ma Liang begged for a seal and rushed to the imperial camp.Kongming returned to Chengdu and dispatched troops and horses to rescue him.

But Lu Xun saw that the soldiers in Shu were slack and stopped defending the embankments, so he raised his tent and gathered all the soldiers to listen to the order and said, "Since I was ordered, I have never gone to war."Looking at the soldiers of Shu today, they are well aware of the movements, so they want to take a battalion on the south bank of the river first.Who dares to take it?Before they finished speaking, Han Dang, Zhou Tai, Ling Tong and others said in response: "I am willing to go."All the lesser teachers will not be able to retire, so I call Chunyu Dan, the last general of the rank, and say: "You and I, with five thousand troops, are going to take the fourth battalion in the south of the Yangtze River, which is guarded by Fu Tong, the general of Shu."Make it tonight.I will raise my own troops to respond.Chunyudan led his troops away, and called Xu Sheng and Ding Feng, saying: "You and I will each lead three thousand soldiers and station them five li outside the stronghold. If Chunyudan is defeated and soldiers come, they should be rescued, but they must not be pursued." go.The second general led the army by himself.

But it is said that Chunyu Dan led the troops forward at dusk.When we arrived at Shuzhai, it was already after the third watch.Dan ordered all the troops to rush in.In the Shu camp, Fu Tong led his troops out and took Chunyu Dan straight with his spear. If Dan couldn't hold back, he drew his horse and returned.Suddenly there was a loud shout, and a Biao army blocked the way: the leader is Zhao Rong.Dan took the road and walked away, breaking most of it.As he was walking, a savage soldier behind the mountain stopped him: the leader was Samoko.Dan fought to the death, and the three-way army came behind him.Five miles away from the camp, Xu Sheng and Ding Feng of the Wu army came to kill them twice. The Shu soldiers retreated and rescued Chunyu Dan back to the camp.Dan brought an arrow into Lu Xun to plead guilty.Xun said: It is not your fault: I want to test the enemy's falsehood.I have decided on the plan to break Shu.Xu Sheng and Ding Feng said: "Shu's army is too powerful to be defeated, and it is impossible to destroy the army and defeat the generals."Xun said with a smile: "I have this strategy, but I can't hide it from Zhuge Liang's ears."Fortunately, this person is not here, which made me a great success.

So he gathered the generals and soldiers to listen to the order: let Zhu Ran march on the waterway, and the southeast wind will be strong in the afternoon in the next day, and the boat will be loaded with thatch, and he will go according to the plan.Han Dang led an army to attack the north bank of the river, and Zhou Tai led an army to attack the south bank of the river.Each of them holds a handful of thatch in their hands, which contains sulfur and flame nitrate, each with fire, each with a gun and knife, and they all go up together.But when they arrived at Shuying, the wind raised the fire.Of the forty villages of the Shu soldiers, only twenty villages were burned, and each village burned one village.All armies bring dry food in advance, and are not allowed to retreat temporarily.Chased day and night, only captured Liu Bei Fangzhi.After listening to the military order, all the generals went away under the plan.

But it is said that the former master was in the imperial camp thinking about a plan to defeat Wu, when he suddenly saw the flags and banners of the Chinese army in front of the tent, and they fell down without wind.But he asked Cheng Ji, "What is this sign?"Ji said: "Could it be that Wu soldiers came to rob the camp tonight?"The Former Lord said: "I killed them all last night, how dare I come again?"Ji said: "If Lu Xun is to test the enemy, what can we do?"In the middle of the story, people reported that Wu Bing was seen from a distance on the mountain, looking eastward along the mountain.The First Lord said: "This is a suspicious soldier."Ordered the crowd to rest, and ordered Guan Xing and Zhang Bao to lead five hundred horses each for a tour.At dusk, Guan Xing played back and said: "There is a fire in the Jiangbei camp."The Former Lord urgently ordered Guan Xing to go to the north of the Yangtze River and Zhang Bao to go to the south of the Yangtze River to see what was true and false. If the Wu soldiers arrived, they could report back urgently.

The second general took the order.At the beginning of the watch, the southeast wind suddenly rose.I saw the fire in the Zuotun of the imperial camp.When Fang wanted to rescue, the right camp of the imperial camp was on fire again.The wind is tight and the fire is urgent, and the trees are all covered.Shout loudly.The two troops and horses came out together and ran away from the imperial camp.The imperial army trampled on each other, and the number of dead was unknown.Wu soldiers came later, but I don't know how many soldiers and horses there are.The First Lord got on his horse in a hurry, and when he rushed to Feng's training camp, the flames in the training camp burst into the sky.Jiangnan and Jiangbei shine like daylight.Feng Xi got on his horse in a panic and led dozens of riders away. Just as Wu general Xu Sheng's army arrived, the enemy lived and fought.The first master saw it, and he turned his horse to the west and left.Xu Sheng gave up Feng Xi and led his troops to chase him.The First Lord was in a panic when another army stopped him in front, it was Wu General Ding Feng.Double attack.The First Lord was shocked.There is no way around.Suddenly there was a loud shout, and a Biao army rushed into the siege. It was Zhang Bao who rescued the former master and led the Yulin army to run away.In the middle of the journey, another army in front came again. It was Fu Tong, the general of Shu, who marched together.Wu Bing chased after him.The First Lord went to a mountain named Ma'anshan.When Zhang Bao and Fu Tong invited the first master to go up the mountain, there was another shout from the bottom of the mountain: Lu Xun's troops surrounded Ma'anshan.Zhang Bao and Fu Tong died in Yamaguchi.The First Lord looked at the flames in the fields, the dead bodies piled up, and the river was flowing down. The next day, the soldiers of Wu set fire to the mountain again, and the soldiers ran wild, causing the Former Lord to panic.All of a sudden, in the light of the fire, a general led the number of cavalry and killed him up the mountain. He regarded him as Guan Xingye.Excitedly, please say: "The fire is approaching all around, so don't stop for a long time."Your Majesty rushed to Baidi City, and then took the army and horses.The First Lord said: Who dares to cut off the Queen?Fu Tong said: "I am willing to die for it!"In the evening of the same day, Guan Xing was in front, Zhang Bao was in the middle, leaving Fu Tong behind, keeping the former master, and killing them down the mountain.When Wu soldiers saw the former master running away, they all wanted to fight for merit, and each led a large army, covering the sky and covering the earth, and pursued westward.The first lord ordered the soldiers to take off their robes and armor, block the road and burn them to cut off the rear army. While they were running, the shouts were loud. Wu general Zhu Ran led an army to kill from the bank of the river and stopped the way.The Former Lord cried out, "I died here!"Guan Xing and Zhang Bao collided with their horses and were shot back by random arrows. They were seriously injured and could not get out.There was another shout from behind: Lu Xun led the army to kill from the valley. The former master was in a panic, and at this time it was already dusk, only to see the shouts in front of him shaking the sky, Zhu Ran's army fell into the ravine one after another, rolling into the rock: a Biao army rushed in, came to rescue him.The First Master was overjoyed; he looked at it: it was Zhao Zilong from Changshan.When Zhao Yun was in Jiangzhou in the middle of Sichuan, he heard that Wu and Shu were fighting, so he led the army out; suddenly he saw the flames in the southeast area, and Yun was frightened.When Lu Xun heard that it was Zhao Yun, he suddenly ordered the army to retreat.During Yunzheng's killing, he suddenly met Zhu Ran and confronted him; when he didn't meet, he shot Zhu Ran under his horse, killed the Wu soldiers, rescued the former master, and left looking at Baidi City.The First Lord said: "Although I have been liberated, what will the generals do?"Yun said: "The enemy army is behind, so don't be too late."Your Majesty will enter Baidi City to rest, and then the minister will lead the troops to rescue the generals.At this time, only a hundred or so people left by the Former Lord entered Baidi City.Later generations have poems praising Lu Xun saying: Holding a spear and raising fire to break through the company battalion, Xuande ran poorly to Baidi City.Once the prestige shocked Shu and Wei, Wu Wangning disrespected scholars. But it is said that after Fu Tong was broken, he was surrounded by Wu Jun on all sides.Ding Feng yelled, "Sichuan soldiers killed countless people, and many surrendered."Your Lord Liu Bei has been captured.Now you are poor and lonely, why don't you come down early?Fu Tong scolded and said: "I am a general of the Han Dynasty, and I am willing to surrender to Wu Gou!"With guns and horses, he led the Shu army to fight to the death; no less than a hundred battles, they came and went and clashed, and they couldn't escape.Tong sighed and said, "I will stop now!"After speaking, he vomited blood and died among the Wu army.Later generations praised Fu Tong's poem saying: During the battle between Yiling, Wu and Shu, Lu Xun conspired to burn them with fire.He still scolded Wu Gou until he died, Fu Tong is worthy of General Han. Shu sacrificed wine to Cheng Ji, and ran to the riverside with horses, calling for the water army to go to the enemy, Wu soldiers chased after them, and the water army scattered and fled.The general of Jibu called and said: "Wu soldiers are here!"Cheng Jijiu, let's go!Ji said angrily: "I have been in the army since the Lord, and I have never fled to the enemy!"Before the words were finished, Wu soldiers arrived suddenly, and there was no way around, so Ji drew his sword and killed himself.Later generations have a poem praising it: Generously sacrificed wine in the middle of Shu, and left a sword to answer the king.In the face of danger, do not change your life ambitions, and win fame forever. At that time, Wu Ban and Zhang Nanjiu besieged the city of Yiling. Suddenly Feng Xi arrived and said that the Shu army was defeated, so he led the army to rescue the former lord, and Sun Huan was able to escape.Zhang and Feng two generals were walking, Wu soldiers came in front, and Sun Huan came out from Yiling City in the back, and they came down to attack.Zhang Nan and Feng Xi fought hard, but couldn't escape, and died in the chaos.Later generations have a poem praising it: Feng Xizhong is the same, Zhang Nanyi is the only one: willing to die on the battlefield, and the history will be shared. Wu Ban broke out of the siege, and was chased by Wu soldiers. Fortunately, Zhao Yun followed and rescued him back to Baidi City.At that time, Shamoke, the barbarian king, was galloping on horseback. He met Zhou Tai, and after more than 20 battles, he was killed by Tai.Shu generals Du Lu and Liu Ning all descended to Wu.There is a war of grain, grass and utensils in Shuying, but the size does not exist.Shu generals and Sichuan soldiers surrendered countless.At that time, Mrs. Sun was in Wu. When she heard that Xiaoting had been defeated, it was rumored that the First Lord died in the army, so she drove to the riverside, looked at Xiyao, wept, and threw herself into the river to die.Later generations set up a temple by the riverside, named Xiaoji Temple.The commentator wrote a poem and sighed: First, the main soldiers returned to Baidi City, and my wife donated her life alone when she heard about it.Up to now, the monument on the bank of the river is still there, and it still bears the name of a thousand-year-old woman. But it is said that Lu Xun has achieved great success, attracted the victorious soldiers, and pursued them westward.Not far from Kuiguan, Xun immediately saw the mountains and rivers in front of him, a burst of murderous aura, soaring into the sky; so he reined in his horse and looked back at the generals, saying: There must be an ambush ahead, and the three armies must not advance lightly.He retreated more than ten miles, and lined up in an open place to defend against the enemy's army; he sent sentry horses to visit.Reported that there is no army stationed here, I don't believe it, I got off my horse and climbed the mountain to look at it, and the murderous spirit revived.Xun asked people to visit carefully again, and the sentry horse reported that there was no one riding in front of him.Seeing that the sun was sinking to the west, Xun's murderous intent became more and more serious, he hesitated in his heart, and asked his confidantes to visit again.Returning to the riverside, there are only eighty or ninety piles of rocks, and there are no horses.I was so suspicious that I asked the native seekers to ask.After a while, several people arrived.Xun asked, "Who made a pile of rocks?"Why is there a murderous aura in the pile of rocks?The natives said: "This is the place where the fish's belly is born."When Zhuge Liang entered Sichuan, he drove his troops here, took stones and lined up on the beach; since then, there has always been a cloud of energy, rising from the inside. After hearing this, Lu Xun got on his horse and led dozens of riders to look at the stone formation. He immediately rode on the hillside, but he saw that there were doors and households in all directions.Xun laughed and said, "This is a trick to confuse people. What good is it?"So he led the number to ride down the hillside and went straight into the stone formation to watch.The general said: "The sun is over, please come back early."Xunfang was about to go out, but suddenly there was a strong wind.In an instant, flying sand and rocks covered the sky and covered the earth.But the strange rocks are towering, and the branches are like swords; the horizontal sand stands on the soil, overlapping like mountains;Xun was shocked and said: "Zhuge's plan is in my opinion!"When I was in a hurry to go back, there was no way out.In the midst of surprise and doubt, I suddenly saw an old man standing in front of the horse, and said with a smile: "Is the general going out of this battle?"Xun said: May the elders lead out.The old man walked slowly with his stick, out of the stone formation, without any hindrance, and sent it to the hillside.Xun asked, "Who is the elder?"The old man replied: This old man is Huang Chengyan, the father-in-law of Zhuge Kongming.When Xiaoyong entered Sichuan in the past, a stone array was laid here, named Eight Arrays.Repeat the eight gates, press Dunjiaxiu, Sheng, Hurt, Du, Scenery, Death, Surprise, and Open.Every day and every hour, the changes are unreasonable, comparable to a hundred thousand elite soldiers.Before leaving, Zeng Fu said to the old man: "There will be a general of Soochow Wu lost in the battle, so don't lead him out."The old man is suitable for being on top of a rock. Seeing the general enter through the gate of death, he would be confused if he didn't know this formation.The old man is very kind all his life, and he couldn't bear the general to be trapped here, so he specially led it out from Shengmen.Xun said, "Have you ever learned this formation?"Huang Chengyan said: There are endless changes, and you cannot learn from them.Xun hurriedly dismounted to thank him and returned.Later, there was a poem from the Ministry of Industry and Technology of Du that said: The merits cover the three parts of the country, and the name becomes the Eight Arrays.The river flows and the stone does not turn, and the regret is lost and swallowed Wu. Lu Xun went back to the stronghold, sighed and said, "Kong Ming is really a crouching dragon!"I can't!So he ordered the class teacher.The left and right said: Liu Bei's army was defeated and poor, and he was trapped in a city.Xun said: "I didn't retreat in fear of the stone formation; I expected Cao Pi, the ruler of Wei, to be as treacherous as his father. Now I know that when I pursue the soldiers of Shu, I must take advantage of the emptiness to attack."If I go deep into Xichuan, I will be in a hurry to retreat.After ordering one general to be cut off, he led the army back.Not two days after the retreat, people from three places came to report: Wei Bing Cao Ren went out of Ruxu, Cao Xiu came out of the cave entrance, and Cao Zhen came out of Nanjun.Xun laughed and said, "It's not what I expected."I have ordered the soldiers to refuse them.It is exactly: if the ambitious side wants to swallow the Western Shu, the odds of winning must be against the Northern Dynasty.I don't know how to retreat, let's see the breakdown below. ① Baoyuan Xi dangerous Bao, Tongbu, a place overgrown with vegetation.The original, Gaoping place.Xi, a damp place.Dangerous, dangerous places.This sentence means: In places where the terrain is too complicated, barracks cannot be stationed.
