Chapter 3179 How can a piece of cake be used as a jade?
.
The situation is about to be stirred up, and the transformation of the original structure of Sichuan and Shu is about to come.
"For the glory of Ba God! For the freedom of Ba people!"
Everyone echoed in unison.
This is a slogan that came naturally.
This moment is exactly like that moment.
The Ba people cheered, just like they would cheer before or after.
These agitated Palestinians never thought about why they were here, nor did they know what they were involved in.
From a certain perspective, these Ba people are actually the side effects of Fei Qian making Sichuan and Sichuan rich. People will only consider political issues after they have had enough to eat and drink. If they exist on the line of extreme poverty for a long time,
Struggling on the verge of starving to death, there is no time to speculate or think about what "glory" is and what "freedom" is.
It is precisely because the living standards of Sichuan and Sichuan have been improved and the people are prosperous every day that the Ba people have more savings and more time to participate in such things.
The so-called snake god is a complete joke.
The so-called freedom and equality is a complete lie.
Jiangdong invaded Sichuan and Shu and was portrayed as an ally for the glory and freedom of the Ba people.
Some people didn't believe it, but these Ba people were silent.
Some people also don't believe it, but these Ba people are out for profit, so they shout slogans that they don't believe in either, and then make other Ba people believe it.
To break this situation, the only way to break the information cocoon deliberately created by a small number of people who are silent is to speak out.
But this matter is difficult.
Jiangdong is also facing an information cocoon.
Sun Quan even sent people like Zhu Zhi as governor. What does it mean?
You should know that although Zhu Zhi recognized Sun Quan after Sun Ce's death, in fact Zhu Zhi did not fully approve of Sun Quan, but chose to remain silent at the time.
Silence does not just mean acquiescence.
Sun Quan actually knew this, so he gave Zhu Zhi incomparable honors and even freedom in history.
Historically, Sun Quan reported that Zhu Zhi was appointed as the prefect of Wu County and the general of Fuyi. He gave the four counties of Lou, Youquan, Wuxi and Piling as his settlement, and allowed him to set up chief officials. This is almost equivalent to dividing the land and splitting the land.
In exchange, Zhu Zhi listened to the announcement but did not listen to the instructions, and appeared to be submissive.
What does this mean?
After Jiangdong and Zhou Yu, there is no one available!
In the later period of Jiangdong, Sun Quan was almost defeated. But in the end, Sun Quan still had to succumb to the Jiangdong nobles. What does this mean?
In Jiangdong, those who are capable are not loyal, and those who are loyal are incompetent.
Is this how pitiful Sun Quan is?
No, Sun Quan did it himself. Although Sun Quan learned Sun Ce's lesson and said that he would not use the sword anymore and wanted to sit down and talk with the Jiangdong nobles, the hand behind Sun Quan was always holding the sword. Sun Quan was always superficial.
Although he pretends to be kind, his heart is still thinking of killing, killing, killing.
Cao Cao was suspicious, but at least he was at ease with the people of the Cao family and the Xiahou family, and even deliberately favored them. Sun Quan was also suspicious, but he could ruthlessly kill his own brothers, his own relatives, and even his own son.
So who can you blame?
Sun Quan's behavior also caused Zhu Zhi to be unable to arrange his tactics calmly. He had to do something before Sun Quan's suspicion broke out.
Of course, Zhu Ran was very clear about the problems Zhu Zhi faced, so when he heard that the Ba people came to seek cooperation, Zhu Ran knew something was wrong, but he was still doubtful.
After all, there is Jiangzhou Bo who often does business with Jiangdong as an intermediary.
Bo Shan, a member of the Bo family, met with Zhu Ran specifically and told about some changes in Sichuan and Shu. Zhu Ran also had some ideas.
This is because Zhu Ran also witnessed Sun Quan's various suffocation operations in Jiangdong, so it seems understandable that he heard that some strange regional lords appeared in Sichuan and Shu?
People can figure things out.
Zhu Huan's previous battle failed, but Zhu Huan's strategy of using the Ba people was correct. No one denies this.
If we can collude with the Ba people to capture Bashan, it means we can capture Bajun, which will open the door to attack central Sichuan. Moreover, Bajun can advance to Shangyonghanzhong, and control Jiangzhou and approach Nanzhong. It can be said that if
Having such a piece of territory is undoubtedly Zhu Zhi's biggest victory after taking over the post of governor.
By then, whether it is advancing or retreating, Zhu Zhi and the Zhu family will have a relatively large room for maneuver.
It's like walking on the road and suddenly seeing a stack of money. Even if you know that the pie falling from the sky may be poisonous, what if? What if this is a real pie? How delicious!
When Zhu Ran followed the Ba people who led the way to the area around Yufu, his mind had changed from being cautious and nervous at the beginning. Gradually, he began to feel that it was necessary to show his strength in front of the Ba people, or to show it to those Ba people.
It is a wise move to go to Jiangdong. They Jiangdong people can guarantee the commercial interests of the Ba people in the future...
Of course, Zhu Ran held back in the end. He carefully let his subordinates take action and held the battle himself.
Actually, there is nothing easy to command when attacking a grain garrison with only two to three hundred people stationed there.
After the arrangements were made, Jiangdong soldiers mingled with the Ba people's queue and sneaked up to the top of the Sichuan-Sichuan grain hill.
Zhu Ran looked around, and if there was anything wrong, he would immediately abandon his subordinates and retreat.
Mountainous areas like Sichuan and Sichuan are very different from the hills in South Vietnam.
Most of the hills in South Vietnam are relatively gentle, and you can still climb them if you really want to. However, there are many cliffs in Sichuan that look like they have been cut off by nature. Sometimes, let alone climbing, just looking at them makes you feel dizzy.
.
It was precisely for this reason that when the Ba people led Jiangdong soldiers to climb some hidden mountain roads and appeared in front of the defenders where the Sichuan and Shu troops were hoarding grain and grass, they were caught off guard.
The defenders in Xiaoliangzhai screamed, and the Ba people also screamed. The battle of hundreds of people seemed like the movement of thousands of people...
"Bang!!"
There was a loud noise, and the door of Liangzhai was finally knocked open.
Jiangdong Military Academy followed the Ba people and rushed in.
Bo Shan stood beside Zhu Ran.
He was a guide and did not participate in the fighting.
Such a mountain road is not difficult to climb for Bo Shan, and attacking such a small grain village with two to three hundred people is nothing in his eyes.
What Boshan cares about is Zhu Ran and some of the Jiangdong forces that Zhu Ran represents.
The Bo family and other wealthy families in Sichuan and Shu all have the habit of doing business with Jiangdong.
Among these trades, Shu brocade is undoubtedly the largest one.
Although China has begun to produce silk in the Neolithic Age, the Yangtze River Basin and the Yellow River Basin, Sichuan and Shu were the first to produce large-scale commercial and industrialized brocade in the Han Dynasty.
The three words "Jinguancheng" show its importance.
This may be the earliest and largest single industrial production base in China.
As for the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, Jiangdong and Jiangnan areas, although silkworms have indeed existed for a long time, it was not until after the Song Dynasty that the silk fabrics in Jiangnan could really compete with Shu brocade.
Among the businesses that flow down the river from the middle of Sichuan to Jiangdong, the profits of Shu brocade are undoubtedly crazy.
It is precisely because Shu brocade is so expensive that in history Soochow spent great efforts to cultivate silk silkworm pupae in Jiangdong, laying the foundation for the development of silk in Jiangnan.
Historically, when Liu Bei was entrusting an orphan, he probably realized that Sichuan and Shu were being infiltrated by Jiangdong, so he played a clever trick. When Liu Bei was about to die, he both praised and praised Zhuge Liang, and granted Zhuge unparalleled civil affairs.
At the same time, Li Yan was promoted to the position of Shangshu Ling and Central Protector. On the surface, it seemed that Li Yan was allowed to command the military, but in fact, Zhao Yun was separated from the Central Protector Army, and Li Yan was allowed to stay in Yong'an.
Although it is unclear whether Liu Chan could understand such complicated personnel arrangements and job transfers made by his father before his death, it can at least be explained that Liu Bei was well aware of the important passage between Sichuan, Shu and Soochow.
Ming. The stuck Yong'an, oh, that is the current fish recovery, will give Zhuge Liang more time to take the young master to establish a firm foothold in Sichuan, and the unstable Li Yan will not cause Zhuge Liang more trouble.
trouble……
So in history, did all the native people in Sichuan and Shu rebel?
Obviously not.
It's just that the silent people of Sichuan and Sichuan are "represented" by other noisy guys.
Just like now, Bo family brought some Ba people, as if they "represented" all the Sichuan and Shu clans, and all the Ba people negotiated terms with Zhu Ran.
Although Zhu Ran said that with his status as Zhu Zhi, he could lead the army alone at a young age, he was not incompetent. He had been practicing martial arts in the military since he was a child. He had many meritorious deeds in conquering bandits. Historically, he guarded Jiangling against the enemy.
Cao Wei attacked and resisted in June without falling.
Zhu Ran looked at the black smoke rising over Xiaoliangzhai, "It's time for the Sichuan army to arrive..."
Attacking Xiaotun Liangzhai was not Zhu Ran's entire goal.
This time Zhu Ran detoured through the mountains and used his best tactics, sneaking through the passages and surrounding them, intending to attack the Yufu Liang Road, catching the Sichuan and Shu forces by surprise, and then joined forces with Zhu Zhi to join Yufu.
Now, Zhu Ran's goal seems to be half successful.
…
…
All gifts from fate actually have prices marked on them.
"Engagement, don't you think these Jiangdong people won't be suspicious?" Faping stood next to Zhuge Liang and asked, "Why do I think this thing looks...some...that..."
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "I once heard that someone was seriously ill, so he hurriedly sought medical treatment."
Fa Ping seemed to have some feelings after hearing this.
"When a husband is sick, it is like a mountain falling apart and the ground cracking, and a person's feeling is like a boat leaking into a river. Therefore, he is anxious and does not choose to seek medical treatment, just like a hungry person does not choose to eat, and a thirsty person does not choose to drink." Zhuge Liang slowly
He said slowly, "It's not that people in the world don't know how to identify doctors. They also know that they should observe their actions and listen to their words, and finally observe their effects before entrusting them with their lives. However, it is rare for people to be calm and self-controlled when they are seriously ill. Why?"
』
Fa Ping suddenly realized, "It is indeed a profound insight..."
Zhuge Liang shook his head slightly, "It's not Jiangdong's generals who are stupid, but Jiangdong's troubles."
"The troubles in Jiangdong..." Faping repeated.
Zhuge Liang sighed slightly, "However, Jiangdong is a peaceful corner. Although there is no worry about the four battles, it lacks decisive courage. Cao Mengde especially knows that trapped animals are fighting, and Sun Zhongmou is only greedy for small profits. If your lord is like this, his general will be in a hurry. Jiangdong is in danger."
Defeat is not the fault of war, but the fault of the temple."
Zhuge Liang was silent for a while, "What a pity..."
Fa Ping was slightly stunned. Is this a pity?
Zhuge Liang cast his gaze further afield, "I have heard that there is Gong Jin in the east of the Yangtze River, a great hero in the world, a romantic and beautiful husband in the left corner of the Yangtze River... It's a pity..."
Faping whispered: "I heard that Zhou Gongjin is seriously ill."
Zhuge Liang nodded, then shook his head. After a moment, he sighed and looked at the map, "Where is General Yan now?"
Fa Ping was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward, checked some information first, then picked up the little man representing Yan Yan and moved forward on the map...
The doll is made of bronze, and when it is pushed on the map, the sound of armor clashing can be heard.
…
…
In the mountains, an army column was marching slowly.
Among this formation, many soldiers were soldiers from the Sichuan-Shu Mountains left behind by Wei Yan.
There is no doubt that these mountain soldiers are elite, and this can be clearly seen from their behavior.
Although most of the time, they don't seem to have anything special, but if you pay attention, you will find that the distances of these soldiers are even the same, and the feet of the latter person will fall on the footprints of the previous person.
.
On the one hand, this is to ensure the safety of the march. The footprints left by the predecessors are undoubtedly safer than other places. On the other hand, it is to maintain a relatively stable marching rhythm, not to be fast and slow, which wastes physical energy in vain.
.
In the queue, there was a middle-aged military officer. Although his face was a bit old, his eyes were still as sharp as an eagle.
The mountain road is not easy to walk, and in many places it can even be said to be climbing between mountain walls and cliffs. The soldiers must move forward carefully. A little carelessness may lead to the fate of slipping and falling into the mountain stream. However,
These soldiers seem to be accustomed to facing such challenges. Their steps are steady, their eyes are focused, and every move seems to be full of confidence.
This is the self-confidence that comes from hard training, and this is the self-confidence that comes from practicing a skill over and over again.
They knew very well that the enemy was waiting for them ahead, and that there were unknown dangers lurking in the mountains and forests ahead. However, they did not become timid and panicked because of this. Instead, they seemed to be walking on the mountain behind their own home, with an inexplicable feeling.
easy.
Suddenly, Yan Yan in the queue narrowed his eyes and looked around, faintly seeing a frightened bird flying behind the forest in the mountains.
If there is any movement, there will inevitably be frightened birds flying.
But the frightened birds are not necessarily the enemy.
Even if a giant monkey passes by, it will frighten some birds.
On normal days, Yan Yan might not have been so careful, and he might have missed such a bird-scare phenomenon without paying attention. But now that he had received the news, Yan Yan naturally couldn't take it lightly. Something a little out of place caught his attention.
.
There seems to be an unsettling atmosphere in the mountains.
Yan Yan walked forward slowly while looking around.
Among Sichuan and Shu, many people think that Wei Yan is the king of the mountains and forests, but they have forgotten that Yan Yan once fought to a draw with Wei Yan.
Although Yan Yan is older, this also means that he has gained more experience in the war.
Now these experiences have become the key to his victory.
In some ways, when an old general learns new tactics, he often becomes more experienced and sharper than a novice.
Obviously, Zhu Ran failed to hide his tail well.
Yan Yan saw several black dots jumping over a sparse forest.
Yan Yan's eyes narrowed and she raised her arms.
A low whistle sounded, and the queue around Yan Yan paused.
It was noon, when the sun was at its brightest, when suddenly a bright light flashed from the distant mountains and forests.
"Tsk." Yan Yan whispered, "You can't even hide your swords and guns... Pass on, there are bandits ambushing ahead! Prepare to retreat!"
…
…
Zhu Ran stared at those Ba people.
If the Ba people hadn't led Zhu Ran and the others to successfully attack a Sichuan-Shu Army ration storehouse, Zhu Ran might have thought that these Ba people were here specifically to harm him...
Do you know what an ambush is?
Running around, jumping and swaying around, can't even a wooden person know how to do it?
Will you die if you stop for a while?!
"They found us!"
"We've been discovered!"
"Kill him directly!"
"That's right, it's just an ambush, it's better to just kill them!"
Zhu Ran: "..."
The ambush location itself was planned. When the Sichuan and Sichuan reinforcements crossed the ditch, the archers would first attack the Sichuan troops exposed at the bottom of the ditch for a few rounds, and then throw some rocks, fireballs and so on, so that they could take advantage of the chaos to harvest.
Human heads, isn’t this bad? It’s fun to have to rush out and kill them?
Before Zhu Ran could say anything to these Ba people, he saw that Yan Yan had already begun to organize the queue, and seemed to be preparing to retreat...
"They're running away!"
"Follow me!"
"Wait..." Zhu Ran just raised his hand, and before he could give the order, he saw the Ba people rushing out of the forest like hundreds of ducks, shaking their buttocks and running towards Yan Yan's side.
queue.
Bo Shiboshan followed Zhu Ran, and he also saw the current situation.
Boshan felt that Zhu Ran was a little greedy for merit.
The original plan was to attack the grain stronghold where Sichuan-Sichuan transit was stocked, but after the grain stronghold was defeated, Zhu Ran took advantage of the situation and came up with a plan to ambush.
The Sichuan army came through the mountain road, and they only needed to choose a suitable location. When the Sichuan army arrived, they could lead the troops out and easily kill the Sichuan army.
This original plan was indeed a good one.
But the problem is, the Ba people are careless.
Without effective training, it is difficult for Ba people to remain consistent in their actions.
Although everyone knows that you need to be quiet and concealed when ambushing, but as time goes by, some people want to pee, some want to be tickled, some can't help but twist their butts, and some can't help but want to chat...
Although Zhu Ran repeatedly reminded these Ba people to pay attention, it was of no use.
The next moment, Zhu Ran was heard shouting loudly.
"Kill with me!"
Zhu Ran is not greedy for merit, he has just come this far, how could he stop just now?
It's like running down a mountain. After taking the first step, even if you know that the follow-up will become more and more dangerous, it is difficult to stop...
