Lan Ji was clearing the way ahead, and he felt someone calling him, so he rode to the back and asked, "Father, are you calling me?"
Lan Tian shook his head and smiled, waved his hand and said: "Do your own thing, I will call you if necessary."
"Oh." Lan Ji glanced at everyone suspiciously, then clasped his legs under the horse's belly and rushed to the front.
Yi Ji asked with a shocked look on his face: "Master Fu, did the second young master hear it even though he was so far away?"
"Can't you? It could be a coincidence." Lan Tianxin said that we are all ordinary people, so don't make any reference to martial arts.
Gan Ning explained solemnly: "Those with high martial arts skills have sharp ears and eyes. Zhong Ling is already a leader among people. It is normal for his hearing to be different from ordinary people. However, the distance is indeed far. I agree with what you said."
"Well... I once heard Boyang say that Wu general Xu Sheng was originally entrenched in Chaisang. How did Xingba deal with it in the end? Was it a forced attack on the city or a surrender?" Lan Tian quickly changed the subject.
Gan Ning frowned and shook his head: "No, this matter is complicated. Listen to me carefully..."
When Gan Ning took over Chai Sang from Lan Yuan, he thought that he would not need to attack if he could recruit surrender. In addition, there were two prisoners, Zhang Cheng and Sun Lin, so he ended up besieging instead of attacking.
Chaisang is an important military town. Except for a small number of settled people, most of the people in the city are troops stationed here. The city's supplies rely heavily on Nanchang and Jianye. After Gan Ning besieged the city, people were panicked.
Although Xu Sheng was good at being the governor of thousands of people, he actually led thousands of people into a desperate situation, but he didn't know how to resolve the crisis. The supplies and news in Chaisang City were completely cut off. He didn't know the true situation of Lu Fan and Jianye, so he thought that there might be some benefits if he persisted.
After hearing the news, he faced Zhang Cheng and was unmoved by Sun Lin's repeated attempts to persuade him to surrender.
Xu Sheng was not only unwilling to surrender, but also scolded Zhang Cheng and Sun Lin. Zhang Cheng was in his forties and had a calm personality, but Sun Lin, who was in his early twenties, also had a bad temper. He was the equivalent of a local emperor in Yuzhang, how could he be willing to be
Warriors like Xu Sheng insulted each other, so they retaliated and cursed outside the city. The two of them exposed each other's shortcomings in the city and outside the city, and the words they used in their exchanges became more and more vicious.
Sun Lin was quick with his words and scolded Xu Sheng several times. Xu Sheng was unable to respond. Finally, he was so angry that he drew his bow and shot Sun Lin. At that time, both Gan Ning's attacking side and the defenders in the city were in an uproar.
Sun Ben and his son had been in Yuzhang for more than ten years. Even Chai Sang had followers of the two father and son. Xu Sheng was assassinated on the night of the murder. The perpetrators were several soldiers from Yuzhang. They just wanted to avenge Sun Lin.
, only then did he kill the general and finally surrender the city.
After listening to Gan Ning's description, Lan Tian couldn't help but sigh. After all, Xu Sheng was one of the twelve tiger ministers in Jiangdong, but he died in the hands of a few unknown soldiers. This was in line with the famous saying, "Every man is angry and his blood splashes five steps."
.
Entering Chaisang City, a straight road leads to the Prefect's Mansion.
Gan Ning dismounted and took over Lan Ji's place, leading Lan Tian to the government office lobby, while Yi Ji returned to his residence in the prefect's mansion to get the edict.
Lan Tian sat down and waited at the main seat. Not long after, Yi Ji came out with an edict in his hand. Liu Bei ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor and rewarded the meritorious officials. Lan Tian's contribution was second only to Guan Yu. He was promoted from general to general of Wei, promoted to Xiaohou, and led the Yangzhou shepherd.
"Xiao Hou? Yangzhou Mu?" Lan Tian was surprised after hearing this. Firstly, he didn't understand what the Marquis meant. Secondly, he and Liu Bei had an agreement that the system of Jiaozhou does not need to be promoted, but it must be retained according to Lantian's current model, otherwise it will be a disaster in the future.
Destroyed by the gentry.
Yi Ji explained with a smile: "His Majesty ascended the throne on August 16th and awarded hundreds of officials. Only Fujun and General Guan were promoted to county marquis. His Majesty said that Peihou was the title of the traitor Liu Bi, so he thought it was unlucky to grant you the title, so he
He sealed it with Xiao County in the same county, and Lai Taichang reported the situation in Jiangdong. His Majesty said that the affairs in Yangzhou cannot be decided by Ziyu."
County princes regard their place of origin as the highest honor. If the county of origin cannot be sealed for some reasons, other counties in the same county will take second place.
"The title and title are like floating clouds to me, but if I go to Yangzhou, who will be left to govern Jiaozhou?" Lan Tian looked solemn.
"Haha, please relax, Lord. Your Majesty knows that you have spent so much effort in Jiaozhou and will not entrust Jiaozhou to ordinary people. Zizhong (Mi Zhu) went south at the same time as me. What he holds in his hand is the edict of Jiaozhou. Jiang Gongyan will take over.
Are you relieved that you have been appointed as the governor of Jiaozhou?" Yi Ji stroked his beard and said with a smile.
Lan Tian immediately breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in response: "Gong Yan is generous and steady. He is indeed the best candidate. Your Majesty really understands my heart."
Yi Ji shook his head and explained: "You don't know something. This is Prime Minister Zhuge's suggestion. His evaluation of Jiang Gongyan is similar to yours. This may be because heroes have similar opinions."
"The Prime Minister has also gone to Chang'an? Then who will stay in Yizhou? Although His Majesty has been operating in Shu for many years, there are many barbarians in the south of Zhongshan. If there is no capable person to take charge of Chengdu, be careful to prevent those barbarians from rebelling." Lan Tian frowned.
Yi Ji was dumbfounded after hearing this. He looked at Lantian as if he were a monster, and said in surprise: "The prince is really a god. The prime minister originally wanted to go to Chang'an to congratulate him, but as a result, he was killed by the rear before he left Chengdu and arrived at Luocheng.
He invited the fast horse back, and Yong Kai, the commander-in-chief of Jianning, launched a rebellion in Nanzhong. He killed the prefect Zhengang and established himself as the prefect of Yongchang. He sent Meng Huo to incite Nanzhong to contact the barbarians to respond. Later, Zhu Bao, the prefect of Zangke, and Yue
The Siman King Gaoding raised his troops to respond, and now all the counties in Nanzhong have fallen, but the prefect of Yongchang Wang and his wife are still holding on."
Lan Tian was also shocked. Historically, because of the death of the White Emperor, Liu Bei's barbarians in the south were waiting for an opportunity to take action. But now Liu Bei is not only alive and well, but has also ascended the throne as emperor in Chang'an. Are these barbarians crazy?
"The Nanman moved so quickly. It didn't look like it was a temporary move. Could it be that he was instigated by others?" Lan Tian frowned.
Yi Ji replied: "The Prime Minister thinks so too. It may be a trick of Cao Pi or Sun Quan. They took advantage of His Majesty to bring the main force into Guanzhong. Yizhou is empty now, and the purpose should be to restrain the situation."
Lan Tian stroked his beard and said to himself: "A few years ago, Boyang and I went to Chengdu. At that time, we discovered a large number of Wei's masterpieces. Many of them were exiled to Nanzhong. Sure enough, there must be a cause..."
"Your Majesty often says that the Prime Minister and the Prince are as wise as the ocean. You two can think of each other even though you are so far apart. I am really convinced." Yi Ji bowed and bowed.
Lan Tian hurriedly helped Yi Ji up, and joked with a wry smile: "Uncle Ji, you don't have to be like this, let Shi Yuan, Yuan Zhi and others speculate, and they can also deduce the specific reasons. There is no need to praise me and Kong Ming so highly. It will hurt when we fall."
Who will pay for it?"
"Haha, Mr. Fu is known for his modesty. The more you say this, the more I don't believe it." Yi Jixin said, don't bully me for not studying well, your actions have already betrayed you.
"The rebellion of the Southern Barbarians must not be ignored, otherwise it will be really constrained by the climate. But now that Yizhou has a small number of soldiers and Yongliang is the time to use force, Guanzhong will definitely not be able to send too many troops. I wonder how your majesty will deal with it? If Jiangdong hadn't already
Even if it is pacified, I can go to Shu to help in the war." Lan Tian's face was solemn.
Yi Ji replied affirmatively: "The Prime Minister also knows that it is difficult to mobilize troops from various places. Moreover, the road to Shu is difficult and it is inconvenient for large armies to travel long distances, so he plans to recruit local braves in Yizhou to resist. However, there are too few generals available in Yizhou. The Prime Minister asked your Majesty to send a few
Just a general can help."
"I guess General Zilong must be among them." Lan Tian smiled and nodded, thinking that Zhao Yun had a good relationship with the Prime Minister and he should be named to leave.
