Many times, afterwards, people would think that I could go to me, but in fact, the complexity of the war must be beyond the imagination of most people.
Jiangdong increased its troops twice and captured more cities, which seemed to have a completely different record from history. It showed a tough attitude, which also led Cao Ren, who was located in Jingzhou, to make the decision to temporarily "lent" Jiangling to Jiangdong.
This decision was naturally extremely correct in Cao Ren's mind.
First of all, Jiangling was too close to the river and the waters in the territory were complex. When facing the Jiangdong soldiers who were mainly ships and could quickly transport and advance water and land, even if the Cao army had cavalry, it would not be easy to deal with.
Secondly, Jiangdong fought continuously, and Cao Cao kept his troops still. This would of course cause dissatisfaction in Jiangdong. In order to avoid letting Jiangdong stop when he sees good, so when Cao Cao wanted to move, Jiangdong would not cooperate again, so he would definitely give Jiangdong some benefits.
Third, Jiangling has experienced wars and has not recovered much for a long time, and it also requires blood transfusions from time to time in Jingbei. Cao Ren is actually a little bored. After all, Cao Ren thinks that Jingzhou is mainly going to send supplies to Xuchang now, and what is the case when spending supplies and goods in Jiangling?
Therefore, Jiangdong increased its troops for the third time, and the base camp was established in Jiangling.
Then he started to build a water village, strengthen the city defense, arrange the station, and repair the roads, making it seem like he was preparing to repair it in Jiangling for a whole year. Zhu Zhi didn't mention a word about the date of moving forward.
Zhu Zhi was unwilling to move forward, so Huang Gai had to come and hand over Zhu Zhi with a few troops.
In other words, Jiangdong's offensive on the waterway was almost in a stagnant state.
War, politics, one side of two bodies.
Huang Gai was a little angry.
Zhu Zhi and Huang Gai have many similarities, but they are very different in nature.
Both of them were veterans of the three dynasties. They fought against Sun Jian in their early years and both achieved considerable military achievements. However, the routes they took were different in the end.
Zhu Zhi and Huang Gai have different origins.
Huang Gai was a descendant of Huang Zilian, the prefect of Nanyang, but his family was separated from Nanyang very early. Huang Gai's grandfather moved to Lingling to live, and basically left the Huang family in Nanyang. Huang Gai lived in a difficult life when he was young, but he still had ambitions. Although he was poor, he still often carried a salary to warn himself, studied and learned military strategy. Later, he served as a county official, and was investigated as a filial and honest person, and finally served under Sun Jian.
Therefore, Huang Gai is a completely poor family, even a cold frame, and almost doesn't even have a frame, but Zhu Zhi is different. Zhu Zhi was a local tyrant and a local big family at the beginning, so Zhu Zhi served as a county official when he was very young. Later, he was elected as a filial and honest person. The states took him as a employed person and followed Sun Jian to fight everywhere.
One has to carry his own salary, always be alert and never forget his ambition, and climb up desperately, and then he has gained the position of a county official, while the other is to be a county official casually, and then apply a layer of gold paint, and immediately transform into a state official with grassroots experience...
It can be said that Huang Gai’s road is the admirable road of struggle.
How inspirational is the counterattack of the nike.
And such a path is undoubtedly stupid in the eyes of people like Zhu Zhi, and is a waste of youth and time.
Like Zhu Zhi, he would first place a name in the county and wander for two days. At the end of the year, he would definitely have a good evaluation. Taking off directly on the spot is the real way for officials.
Therefore, although these two people are currently governors, they actually look down on each other.
Not to mention that we have to hand over military power to each other now.
Huang Gai was very unhappy because Zhu Zhi should have gone to the front line to hand over the handover, but now he wants Huang Gai to return to hand over the handover.
This behavior is not completely non-compliant, but like the county officials who paint gold paint at the grassroots level, it is a gray act of hitting the edge ball, which makes Huang Gai disgusted.
Therefore, when Huang Gai met Zhu Zhi, he had no good temper.
"Governor Zhu, governing Jiangling is quite effective. It turns out that those who are capable are very hardworking!" Huang Gai said sarcastically.
What is laborious?
If you work harder, you will be busy.
Being busy is an excuse most of the time.
You can be really busy or fake. The higher the position, the more effective this excuse seems to be, but if you are really busy or fake, you can only have a certain opinion.
As the governor of the first army, he really shoulders a heavy burden, is responsible for attack, and also considers defense. He has to face the eye of the Sichuan and Shu army, and also guards against the Cao army on one side with malice. In addition, from Jiangdong to Sichuan and Shu, the long food supply line has no defensive advantage and may be stabbed in the back at any time. These things have to be considered. It can be said that they are very energy-consuming and should not be slackened at all.
But does all this mean that you can only stop at Jiangling and have no time to move forward?
Obviously not.
After all, these things are often just about the general manager, rather than having to do something by himself. If the governor is asked to do everything alone, then what should the military academy besides do?
It's like working overtime.
When the time is over, I still work overtime. It seems that I am very diligent, hardworking, and excellent. But in fact does it mean that I have been stumbled too much during normal work hours, so that I have not finished what I should have done? Or is it because I am not capable enough and can do what others can do, but in the end, I need more time to do it?
Busy?
busy.
It can be a reason, but it is definitely not an extremely legitimate reason.
Especially now, it can be said that every second is a military battle, and there may be new changes at any time. It is not a good strategy after all, delaying in Jiangling for too long.
Zhu Zhi smiled and said nothing, "Governor Huang, attacking Sichuan and Sichuan, and making many outstanding achievements, it is indeed a general!"
What is a general?
There is no need to explain this...
Zhu Zhi stayed in Jiangling, of course, because of Zhu Zhi's own considerations.
Whether it is Yidao or Zigui, it is not Zhu Zhi's merit, but Jiangling can do it.
Although Jiangling was discussed before, the substantive occupation was done by Zhu Zhi. This cannot be denied?
As for the battle on the front line, everyone knows it is a big pit, so why do you jump in so quickly? Even if you really want to jump down, you need to make relevant preparations. And Zhu Zhi also has a very correct reason, that is, money and grain.
"Please ask Governor Zhu to receive the seal and order the flag!"
Huang Gai stabbed Zhu Zhi and then returned it by Zhu Zhi. He didn't want to have such a quarrel with Zhu Zhi, so he just wanted to hand over the seal flag directly.
Zhu Zhi looked at the seal flag presented by Huang Gai's guards, but he had no intention of taking over. Instead, he smiled and said, "Governor Huang, don't be anxious, don't be anxious..."
Huang Gai's eyebrows stood up, "What do you mean? Do you want to be lazy?"
Zhu Zhi laughed, "Governor Huang, there is no need to do this. Please sit bribe and listen to someone's words."
Huang Gai pondered for a moment, waved his hand and asked the guard to retreat. He wanted to hear Zhu Zhi's so-called reason. He had gone through life and death before, and even if he faced Zhu Zhi alone, he would have been full of courage, otherwise he would not have turned back to look for Zhu Zhi.
Zhu Zhi was the same, asking the guard to retreat, and then said to Huang Gai: "Publicly, is this going west to Sichuan and Sichuan really for Sichuan?"
Huang Gai frowned, "What does this mean?"
Zhu Zhi stretched out his hand and drew a circle around him, "How about this place?"
Huang Gai asked this question, and Zhu Zhi answered this place, which was a coincidence.
However, Huang Gai was obviously not very satisfied with Zhu Zhi's answer. "Governor Zhu, the march to Sichuan and Sichuan is the governor's plan!"
In Jiangdong, there is only one who can directly call the governor with a surname removed.
Zhu Zhi did not deny it, nodded, and then said: "But this Jiangling is also a place to move forward. You can attack and retreat and defend. You must be careful!"
Huang Gai immediately understood and his eyes became low, "Do you want to take the alliance?"
Zhu Zhi laughed, "Why is this? It's just... to prevent it before it happens."
"Is this the lord's intention?" Huang Gai asked in a deep voice.
Zhu Zhi did not argue, "As a subordinate, you should share the worries of the master. It cannot be said that if Sichuan and Shu cannot go down, they will return empty-handed!"
Huang Gai ignored the sarcastic meaning in Zhu Zhi's tone, "If you stay here, then what about the front line?"
Zhu Zhi laughed, "Isn't this still a refusal here? The seal flag is still there, and you can order the former army to be punished. The merits of this governor will definitely report them in detail!"
"Zhu Junli!" Huang Gai angrily slapped the table, "How can you do military and national affairs be like a joke!"
Zhu Zhi also turned his back and slapped the table, "Huang Gong's reversal! This is a century-old plan for Jiangdong, which affects the lives of countless Jiangdong's sons! How can you be careless! Now there is no general on the front line, and you are redirecting without authorization. If the Sichuan Army invades, what crime should you be?!"
The two of them quarreled, and the double-rebel guards in the distance glared at each other, and looked at their generals with a little concern.
It seemed like a big black blame was thrown around by two people, dancing in the air.
…(╬ ̄Dish ̄)╯○╰((*`ェ*)…
While the Jiangdong Waterway Army was still hesitating for the entire strategic direction and hesitating, the hidden dangers behind them were finally exposed.
Wuling Man.
It is called Wuxi Barbarians, or it is called Wuling Wuxi Barbarians...
Shamoko returned to his tribe with a letter of commission and some armor and weapons, and was immediately welcomed by the most solemn welcome.
Previously, Wulingman was beaten up by the Wu army along the waterway. All the villages near rivers were basically either broken or burned, so they had to retreat and go to the hidden villages in the deep mountains, enduring hunger and seeing the cold winter coming, and the limited mountain villages obviously could not provide dense and abundant supplies. At this most painful time, Shamoko came back and brought good news!
The Sichuan and Shu army under the cavalry are willing to support the great revolutionary actions of the Wulingman!
Ahem, maybe that's what it means, these Wuling Man suddenly became excited and felt that the light had reappeared in the world.
However, if you want to really connect with the Sichuan and Shu army, you have to pass two barriers first. One is to break the blockade of the Wu army in the Youshui and Yuanshui River, and the other is to occupy the area from Zigui to Qishan. Only in this way can you build a transportation route, connect the Sichuan and Shu army, and obtain materials and arms.
Therefore, the first thing to do is to capture the nodes on Youshui, such as Youyang, Youyin and other small counties.
Shamoke gathered a group of strong men. After a little encouragement of morale, he left the hidden mountain village in the mountains, led his army to travel for a day, crossed the Youshui River, and set up a camp in a valley near Youyang County. After arranging the surrounding alerts, Shamoke sat down at the bonfire and began to think.
Following the Sichuan Army, especially after following Zhuge Liang for a period of time, Shamoke was like being trapped in a BUFF of intelligence improvement, and his experience grew significantly, and then he unknowingly gained some intellectual points.
Walking on mountain roads, passing through forests, and climbing among the rugged and difficult mountains are all the special skills of Wulingman, but attacking a city often becomes Wulingman's nightmare.
However, just as Zhuge Liang instructed before leaving, now is indeed a good time for Wulingman.
Because those generals who are familiar with the Wuling Barbarians are basically on the front line now, the entire Wuling area is in a window period for Jiangdong.
In fact, to a certain extent, the Wuling area is the training ground in Jiangdong.
Whether it is Zhou Tailu Meng, who is favored by the poor family, or Zhu Zhiluxun, who is a wealthy family, they have actually fought against the Vietnamese barbarians in the Wuling area and have gained a lot of military experience.
Now because of the battle with the Sichuan and Shu army, the generals who were originally training troops in the Wuling area have also taken away the elite soldiers under these generals. Therefore, the current Wuling area is actually a bit empty...
This is the disadvantage of the private soldiers of Jiangdong generals.
Once the general moves, the combat power of the entire region will change immediately. The core combat power will always be private soldiers in the army, while the rest of the soldiers will make a living by making a living. Although there are many people, they will just bleat and there is no big threat.
Shamoko felt that he could fight, but attacking the county directly would undoubtedly attack the strong with the weak, so he should play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, choose a more secure way, and open a gap first.
The county magistrate in Youyang is Pei Xuan.
Pei Xuan was from Xia Pi and came to Jiangdong due to war. He was very knowledgeable and devoted himself to studying the pre-Qin philosophers. He had a lot of experience in the ways of ancient sages and also liked to encourage others to learn scriptures. He was especially willing to debate with others, to explore literary and scientific knowledge, and to talk about literary and artistic principles. He was a good official when governing the local area, and to nourish the people, and to promote kindness.
However, a good official in the local area does not mean that he has good military talents.
Pei Xuan's term in Youyang is coming soon.
As an official who has some experience in the local area and has good political achievements, it becomes inevitable to walk upwards and move. Therefore, his current mind is not in Youyang. Anyway, he is almost gone, so he is unwilling to do anything big.
But just when he was thinking about taking something away, whether to send a farewell for ten thousand people, or to make a signature for ten thousand people, the county magistrate rushed to report that he had found a thief making trouble outside the city, killed the merchants, and snatched the goods!
"Just a few thieves... Why bother to make a fuss?" Pei Xuan waved his hand lazily, "You bring the county soldiers and drive them away."
Where are there no thieves?
Can there be no thieves in the world?
Pei Xuan didn't want to wipe out these so-called thieves at all. He just wanted to scare and drive the thieves away. Anyway, as long as it was not a rebellion within his county town, everything would be peaceful.
The county magistrate sweated on his head, "Ling Zun! Xingshang is from the Sun family..."
"Sun... which Sun family?" Pei Xuan immediately turned over and sat up.
"Of course...the Sun family..." The county magistrate bent down and lowered his head.
"Bastard!" Pei Xuan was furious, "Why didn't you send someone to escort?"
It was almost time to get promoted, but this happened!
If it is an ordinary merchant, he will die if he dies. It is a big deal? But the problem is the Sun family. Even if you know that you can travel to the merchant, they are mostly just the subordinate branches of the Sun family and have no actual power. But after all, they are from the Sun family. If any news is passed on to the top, would Pei Xuan want to be promoted?!
"Relieve the anger..." The county magistrate hurriedly said, "This... this may be an opportunity..."
"What do you say?" Pei Xuan was stunned.
The county magistrate nodded and said, "There were some bastards before, saying that the county magistrate only talked empty talk... The county magistrate should not be angry. These bastards are just farting... Now, isn't this an opportunity? Those who plunder the merchants are just a few thieves. If they are county magistrates... First, they can be said to avenge the Sun merchants, and there is no reason to blame them. Second, they can also congestion these gossiping mouths... prove that the county magistrate is a talent for civil and military affairs, and is a world-class talent..."
Pei Xuan's brows trembled and pondered for a moment, "Is it really an ordinary thief? How many people are there?"
"There are only ten!" The county magistrate was determined, "They are all wild and wild! I'm afraid that the cold winter is approaching and there is no food and clothing, so I went down the mountain to rob."
Pei Xuan nodded.
If on the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty, nomadic people would come to visit relatives if they had time, then in Jiangdong, the Nanyue Mountain Barbarians often come to fight for the autumn wind.
If there is no food or clothing, those who are useless will form a team to go down the mountain to fight for the jungle on their own, which makes Jiangdong very annoyed. Even if you set up checkpoints on the road and set up military camps, it is useless, because these mountain peaks are good at crossing mountains and ridges. Who knows that they will emerge from where?
About ten mountain and mountain...
Pei Xuan thought, it seemed that he could try it. Just as the county magistrate said, after all, if even ten Shanyue dared to attack, wouldn’t it be confirmed that the so-called weak scholars only have a stubborn voice?
"Good! If you send the order, you will send troops to wipe out these bandits! Avenge the innocent victims!" Pei Xuan stood up and waved his arms, "If you dare to offend me, you will definitely let the thief come and go!"
The county magistrate greeted the place with a deep tribute, "The county magistrate is mighty and powerful! It will surely be successful! With such merit, the county magistrate is just around the corner!"
"Ah hahaha..." Pei Xuan burst into laughter, obviously very happy.
The plan has been decided. I order troops to prepare today and attack tomorrow to eliminate bandits.
The county magistrate bent down and raised his butt, said goodbye, and then turned around, and the flattering look on his face gradually faded. At the corner, the county magistrate looked back and cursed in a low voice, "Old beast, still thinking about Gao Sheng? I have been working as the county magistrate for ten years... One fell from the sky... I always want you to know that this county magistrate... is not something that anyone can play with...
