Having said this, Zhu Chaoshi was full of energy, took off his bamboo hat, and began to make vigorous movements with his hands. At this moment, he was no longer a hawker, but an out-and-out general: "And here I am,
There are a thousand state and county soldiers and horses in the military camp outside the west city, and a thousand elite soldiers are hidden in Kangshan outside the city. They are veterans of Beifu who have been fighting for many years, and they are also close friends of Zhennan. This time
It was specially given to me in order to protect Nankang County, because this is the gateway to Jiangzhou."
Wang Hong breathed a sigh of relief: "This way I have nothing to worry about. However, with two thousand men and horses, it is certainly not a problem to deal with these scumbags. But if the main force of demon thieves attacks, how should we deal with it?"
Zhu Chaoshi was startled for a moment, then shook his head confidently: "It's impossible, Wang Junxiang, you, and Wang Dan, Wang Sanqi (after Wang Dan was released, he was given the high-level position of Sanqi regular attendant, and stayed in Jiangzhou
Assisted He Wuji in planning) sent a lot of spies and agents to Lingnan to report on local trends, but Lu Xun in Guangzhou was enjoying himself all day long and had no plans to prepare for war."
Wang Hong curled up his lips: "Maybe Lu Xun really has no idea, but Xu Daofu seems to be unwilling to calm down. Otherwise, why would he send troops to force various slang tribes and expropriate grain and grass from them? If not
To fight, and for what?"
Zhu Chaoshi waved his hand confidently: "Xu Daofu is not a leader. He is just a guard guard in Shixing in the north. He has only three thousand soldiers and horses. Now most of them are sent to the Li and Dong tribes to collect grain.
, there are less than a thousand people around us, what role can we play?"
Wang Hong shook his head: "General Zhu, don't be careless. It seems that there were less than a thousand demon thieves in Wu back then, and they fled to those islands. No one regarded them as a threat. But overnight, all eight counties rebelled.
There are monsters and thieves all over the place. You may not have experienced those past events in Jingzhou at that time, but I have experienced it myself, and I almost died."
Zhu Chaoshi smiled: "This situation is different from back then. Although there are no demons and thieves in Wu's land, almost everyone believes in the Tao of Heavenly Masters, and there are many people who secretly support them, even among the defenders.
, and more than half of them have been infiltrated by demon thieves for a long time. Only when the demon thieves leaders from the island cross the sea and believers from all over the country mobilize together, will there be the chaos in Wudi that year."
"But now in Lingnan, the number of Han people is small, only 10,000 households, and they are scattered in various places. The last time the demon thieves crossed the sea to invade Guangzhou and burned the city, tens of thousands of Han people were burned to death. Now
The number of Han people in Lingnan is only 2,000 to 3,000 households, with only 10,000 to 20,000 people. They are not as many as the old thieves brought back by the demon thieves from Wu. As for the Li Dong barbarians, they are completely different from us Chinese Han people. They don’t know each other.
What is the Tao of Heavenly Masters? In their eyes, all of us Han people are the same, we are just foreign enemies who come to oppress them."
At this point, he pointed at the slang people in the market and said: "The demon thieves of Tianshi Dao have occupied these people's villages and caves, taking their families and children as hostages, beating, scolding, and humiliating them at will.
, forcing them to come here to exchange mountain products, medicinal materials and wood for food and grass. Look at these slang people, they all have whip marks on their bodies, and there are freshly worn skin and calluses on their hands and feet. These people, will
Do you really want to help the demon thieves? We can even secretly assist and arm these slanderers after the demon thieves sergeants leave the village, so that they can raise the flag of rebellion in Lingnan and fight against the demon thieves."
Wang Hong smiled slightly: "Indeed, where there is oppression, there is resistance, and the demon thieves will not really help these foreign barbarians. Maybe, if we build a good relationship with these slanderers this time, it will be useful in the future, Wang San
.”
The guard named San'er quickly said: "My lord, my subordinate is here."
Wang Hong turned to look at him and said: "Take out some herbs for treating trauma and removing blood stasis from the official treasury, and bring them back to these scumbags when the time comes. We will also find ten medical officers to accompany them back. Let's talk to God."
With good moral character, it is not easy for these people to come to Jiangzhou. They are all citizens of the Jin Dynasty. If they are injured or sick, they must be treated."
Zhu Chaoshi frowned: "If you go to the territory of the demon thief, I'm afraid there will be danger."
Wang Hong smiled and waved his hand: "Ask them to escort 50,000 kilograms back together. If the demon thief dares to touch our medical officer, there will be no deal in the future. I don't think Xu Daofu is so stupid. Besides, he really wants to kill him."
Our medical officer will offend these scumbags, which will only make them hate the monsters and thieves even more. Isn’t my purpose achieved?"
Zhu Chaoshi breathed a long sigh of relief and said to Wang San on the side: "Go and do what Wang Junxiang wants. Hurry, they will go back in two days."
Wang Hong nodded: "General Zhu, I have to work hard for you for two days in the end. Don't slack off any more. We must be on guard against the demon thieves really crossing the mountains to make a surprise attack."
Zhu Chaoshi shook his head: "I have eyes and ears on more than ten mountain roads in Wuling, and your subordinates are conducting reconnaissance in Guangzhou. Whether it is Xu Daofu or Lu Xun, their every move cannot escape our eyes. Besides,
After Wuling came out, they mostly went north to Xiangzhou and Yueyang Baling area to get the grain depots there, recruit troops and horses, and go straight to Jiangzhou, unless they didn't want to go straight to Jiankang from their hometown, but the demon thieves didn't have warships.
It is a fool's dream to march with just two feet. Not to mention that we have two thousand soldiers and horses in Nankang. If Zhennan knows that the enemy has sent troops, it can mobilize Jiangzhou soldiers and horses within three days and concentrate them in the Yuzhang area.
As long as we hold on to Yuzhang until Liu Daogui's army in Jingzhou arrives for reinforcements, and the two armies attack together, the demon thieves may not even have a chance to retreat to Lingnan."
Wang Hong's brows finally relaxed: "It turns out that General Zhu has already planned it. He is indeed the commander's personal disciple. In the future, Zhennan will send troops to Lingnan to make great achievements. You will definitely be a pioneer and make great achievements."
.”
Zhu Chaoshi smiled confidently and said: "Thank you for your good advice. If Lingnan is pacified, then Wang Junxiang, you will definitely be able to serve as the governor of the future. Even if you become the governor of Dazhou, it will be no problem."
Wang Hong smiled and took Zhu Chaoshi's hand: "Then let us, civil and military, perform well in Yuzhang this time. When the time comes, we will sell 50,000 shi and Chen rice to these scumbags and let them transport them back and give them to us."
General Nan will try to give him ten days. When the army arrives, we Nankang's two thousand soldiers and horses will be the vanguard of the whole army. The first one to cross the Five Ridges will be along these people's way of transporting food back.
Those mountain roads that have been specially leveled are marching forward all the way to Shixing!"
