Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 860 Brother 850 Chapter Five
The soldiers of Soochow had already been cut down on food, and they were so hungry that they were so hungry that their chests stuck to their backs. It took a lot of energy to set up camp. At this time, they just wanted to lie on the ground and wait for dinner, and had no intention of going to the river to take a bath.

It was already autumn in August, and the Soochow army stationed by the river was cool, so there was no need to bathe in the river to cool off the heat. Zhu Ju mobilized for a long time and only a hundred people walked to the river, but they only washed their faces and feet.

Down the river to catch fish?It was almost dark, and I was afraid that if the fish was not caught, they would not be able to get up at last, and would become a nest of human flesh instead.

Lu Ju's elder brother, Lu Xian, died early. He is now the son of the heir of the Lu family. When he saw that his words were being farted, he couldn't hold back for a moment, so he called his own guards to forcefully drive the soldiers down the river. What started out as voluntary became compulsive.

This drive was irresistible. The hungry soldiers already had resentment, so when they walked to the river, some people gradually started booing in the crowd, and the family letter spread like a virus.

When everyone heard that Jianye had fallen and family letters were burned, the soldiers who had been driven to catch fish stopped in their tracks. Led by several military commanders, they questioned Lu Ju's food and family letters in turn.

"Disobedience and disobedience, do you want to rebel? If you dare to take a step forward, you will be killed immediately." Lu Ju was furious when he saw this, and raised his long sword to threaten the resisting soldiers.

"Why didn't the general dare to answer? What happened to Jianye? Why did the rations have to be halved for these two days? Why did we retreat?" the leading army Sima Zhou'an asked like a cannonball.

Lu Ju replied in a deep voice: "How can a small army Sima ask these questions? Zhou An, this general will give you another chance, either you will carry out the order, or this general will carry out the military law."

Zhou An sneered: "The official position of the last general is very low, but if the family is gone, eating will be a problem now, do you think I still care about military law?"

"Zhou An and below commit crimes, take them down immediately."

Lu Ju yelled, and the guards next to him rushed out immediately, and Zhou An didn't just sit still, he drew out his sword and went up to meet him.

The soldiers under Zhou An felt the same way. They didn't have the strength to catch fish now. Seeing the army Sima resisting, the blood in their bodies drove their bodies again. Hundreds of people shouted and attacked Lu Ju's guards.

"These bastards really rebelled."

Lu Ju turned pale with shock, he handed over the scene to the guards, and ran to the main tent by himself. The situation was out of his control, and he could only rely on his father, Lu Fan, to turn the tide.

At this time, in the main account, Lu Fan summoned all the generals in the army to discuss matters. He solemnly reported the possible fall of Yichun and the news that the army was running out of food, but he never talked about the letter from home.

When everyone looked at each other, Lu Fan continued to encourage everyone, "According to the information I received, there are only a few thousand rebels in Yichun City, and we have [-] troops with General Zhu. It should be no problem to recapture Yichun. You must restrain them." And appease each other, don't listen to those false rumors, the immediate difficulties are temporary."

The family letter was widely circulated, and several generals already knew about it. At this time, Lu Fan deliberately made the Yichun defenders miserable, mainly to appease them.

"The key is who occupied Yichun? Why didn't we know about it beforehand?" Sun Song asked in bewilderment.

Lu Fan stroked his beard and replied seriously: "It is said that Luo Tong was instigated by Lantian and led foreign enemies to take the city. After the city is broken, I will kill him."

"Luo Gongxu only has two or three thousand soldiers, and the two generals of Zhu have nearly ten thousand pieces, but they can't get it back? They can still go to Nanchang by detour, why stop and wait for us? Yichun is Gongda (Sun Neighbor) Yuzhang Under his rule, he knows that the territory under his jurisdiction is rebelling, and he will never sit idly by." Sun Song raised the question again.

Sun Song inherited Sun Yi's hearty personality, loves to make friends with others, and is willing to do good. He is the most loved by Sun Quan among the clan's children, so Lu Fan had to answer one by one.

"Uh, let's talk about the specific situation when we get there. Xiu Mu (Zhu Huan) arrived at dusk last night, and he might be worried that he would be attacked by a surprise while walking around the city, and he still wants to ask me for instructions." Lu Fanxin said, don't ask me any more. I can't make it up.

Seeing Sun Song nod his head slightly, Lu Fan thought he could finally breathe a sigh of relief, but Liu Dun didn't know which pot he couldn't open and which pot he carried, "General Lu, the family letter has been widely circulated, and it's said in a good way. Zibu led the crowd to surrender, and Gan Xingba captured Chaisang City, shall we also check? If Yichun is really Gan Ning's soldier, then the rear may be in chaos."

Lu Fan made a serious face, "I have said that those are rumors, Ziren is a wise man, how can he follow the rumors? Lantian is named Xuanxiao, we Jiangdong will suffer less from him?"

"Uh..." Seeing that Lu Fan was angry, Liu Dun quickly stopped his voice and didn't dare to say more.

When Sun Song heard the word Lan Tian, ​​he stood up excitedly again. He hurriedly asked: "General, since Lan Tian has rebelled against Luo Tong, he should know that our army is about to die. He has no reason not to take advantage of the victory and pursue it?"

"This..." Lu Fan didn't know how to deal with it for a while, and all the generals in the tent also had dignified faces.

Just as Lu Fan was thinking about countermeasures, the loud noise outside the tent interrupted his thoughts, and Quan Cong stood up with a face full of horror: "Lan Tian's pursuers have arrived?"

Lu Fan heard a shock, and immediately led the generals to run towards the tent door. Hearing the sound came from the river in the east, his nervous heart immediately calmed down a bit, because it is impossible for the pursuers to appear from the river.

Everyone stopped for a while, only to see Lu Ju galloping on horseback, stopped outside the main tent, turned over and fell down, clasped his fists nervously and reported: "Father, soldiers from two battalions have rebelled, and my son's guards are resisting from the east."

"Whose song? Who led it?" Lu Fan asked with a frown.

"Uh..." Lu Ju glanced at Song Qian next to him, and then replied, "It's General Song's man, and the leader of the mutiny is Army Sima Zhou'an."

"General Song, did you hear that?" Lu Fan turned around with an angry look on his face.

Song Qian asked with a look of shock: "Can't you? Zhou Sima is loyal and modest, he shouldn't be."

"In front of the generals, would I spread false news?" Lu Ju interrupted the other party sternly, and responded sternly.

"Uh, I will deal with it right away." Song Qian clasped his fists in embarrassment and left.

Lu Fan's anger remained undiminished, and he told Quan Cong: "General Song is old and may not handle it well, Zi Huang, you and Shi Yi (Lu Ju) should help, and those who disturb the morale of the army will be killed without mercy."

"Wei." Quan Cong and Lu Ju clasped their fists at the same time.

The sound of chaotic fighting sang with the surging river.

The mutiny of hundreds of people in Zhou'an was not worth mentioning among the tens of thousands of troops. They were quickly suppressed and killed on the river beach, and finally their bodies were thrown into the water, and they really became food for fish.

Once the resistance started, the seeds were planted in everyone's hearts. Before it was completely resolved, Lu Fan would never have a peaceful life.

In order to stabilize the precarious morale of the army, Lu Fan asked Lu Ju to take out all the rations in the army, so that the soldiers could barely eat [-]% full. As for tomorrow's rations?It depends on whether the soldiers are actively attacking the city or not.
