Chapter 763: The Sand Kings Secret Trick: Lets Eat Jiangdong Together
Yuzhang County, in the mountains outside Jianchang City.
This deep mountain has steep terrain and deep environment, making it a good place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Normally, a good place like this would easily become a gathering place for bandits, and this place deep in the mountains is certainly no exception.
I saw soldiers wearing armor guarding and patrolling this deep mountain, and there was a large mountain stronghold on the top of the mountain.
At this time, in the lobby of the cottage, a sturdy man with a sturdy figure was walking eagerly back and forth with his hands behind his back.
After walking around for a long time, looking at the darkening sky outside, the strong man once again had a look of disappointment on his face.
Why haven't you come yet?
This strong man's name was Peng Qi, and he was the famous Shanyue Sect Commander of the Poyang generation in Yuzhang County.
When Peng Qi was at the peak of his power, he had tens of thousands of followers under his command.
Although most of the tens of thousands of people were stragglers, the ability to mobilize tens of thousands of stragglers also shows Peng Qi's prestige in Yuzhang County.
Of course, under the attack of Wu Jun in the past two years, Peng Qi's power has declined.
And what is it that Peng Qi, the commander-in-chief who can stomp around in Yuzhang County, is eagerly waiting for?
That thing is simple to say, just a letter.
But things that may seem simple to others are like life-saving straws for Peng Qi.
Why?
Because the owner of that letter is Samoko.
After the Public Security War, as Mi Yang became famous in the world, Samoko's reputation also skyrocketed.
However, because Samoko is a foreigner, his reputation has skyrocketed, mostly in the hearts of foreigners in Jingyang and Yangzhou.
Peng Qi's ancestors were Han Chinese, but later, in order to develop their power, Peng Qi's ancestors were willing to become members of the Shanyue alien tribe.
After hundreds of years of development, Peng Qi has long regarded herself as a member of Shanyue Zhong.
They are both from different ethnic groups. When Peng Qi heard about Samoko's deeds, either out of respect or to learn from the scriptures, Peng Qi sent an envoy to visit Samoko.
The arrival of envoy Peng Qi made Samoko overjoyed.
Who doesn't like the feeling of being famous?
As a result, one was willing to take the initiative and the other did not resist. Under the contact of the messenger, the relationship between Peng Qi and Samoko quickly became close.
And through Peng Qi's relationship, Shamoko also had contact with many Shanyue sect commanders in Yangzhou.
However, Peng Qi and Samoko belong to two states after all, and no matter how good their relationship is, they are not essentially connected in terms of interests.
It wasn't until an incident happened the year before last that the relationship between Peng Qi and Samoko changed.
The year before last, Peng Qi's ambitions had grown. He had received the support of many Shanyue sect commanders, and he directly raised a rebellion flag against the Wu army.
Peng Qi's sudden rebellion caught Sun Quan by surprise, and several county towns were successfully captured by Peng Qi.
But Sun Quan reacted quickly.
Sun Quan was very angry at Peng Qi's rebellion. He felt that he couldn't defeat Mi Yang, so why couldn't he defeat Shan Yue?
So under Sun Quan's order, several Wu armies launched an encirclement and suppression campaign against Peng Qi's rebels. After nearly two years of encirclement and suppression, Peng Qi experienced several major defeats, and finally had to flee outside Jianchang City with the rest of his troops.
The reason why Jianchang City was chosen was that it was quite close to Changsha County in Jingzhou. In order to survive, Peng Qi had made plans to leave her hometown.
And just when Peng Qi was thinking about whether to flee further to Changsha, Peng Qi got the news that Shamoko was leading an army to take control of Changsha.
This news not only dispelled Peng Qi's panic, but also gave him an idea.
Peng Qi's power is based in Yuzhang County. If she hadn't been really desperate, Peng Qi would never have thought of escaping from Yuzhang County.
The news that Samoko was in Changsha gave Peng Qi new hope.
Several defeats in the past made Peng Qi realize that it would be difficult to fight against the Wu army with his own strength alone.
But what if he can attract foreign aid?
A big reason why Peng Qi risked her life and wanted to rebel against Sun Quan was because Peng Qi's brother Peng Hu had died at the hands of the Wu army.
Since it was for revenge, Peng Qi focused on how to defeat Wu Jun. As for the method, it was not important to him.
And everyone in the world knows that the person Wu Jun fears the most is Mi Yang.
With this idea, Peng Qi directly sent an envoy to contact Samoko.
The reason why Peng Qi did not directly send an envoy to contact Mi Yang was that the identity gap between him and Mi Yang was too large, and his envoy could not see Mi Yang at all.
Second, in Peng Qi's mind, he believed that Samoko was Mi Yang's most important confidant.
It is not groundless for Peng Qi to think so.
Let’s not mention the past events in the Public Security War.
After Shamoko returned to Wuling County, every time he held a banquet to entertain friends and envoys from Jingzhou, in order to show his respect for Mi Yang, Shamoko would take the lead in inviting Mi Yang's portrait to be hung behind him, and he would bow and kowtow three times.
The banquet will be officially opened later.
Not only did he pray three times and kowtow three times, Samoko also specially built a small temple in his hometown, which was usually used to place Mi Yang's portrait.
More importantly, every time there was a banquet, Shamoko would often say with satisfaction after drinking: "My general who protects the Han Dynasty was a gift from Da Sima!"
To ordinary people, the title of General Protecting the Han has an extraordinary meaning.
In the past, a title with such a special meaning would never fall on a foreigner from Samoko.
However, Mi Yang was able to "overcome all opinions" and place this heavy honor on Samoko. Doesn't this prove that the relationship between him and Samoko is extraordinary?
When the envoy came back for the first time and spoke to Peng Qi about the relationship between Samoko and Mi Yang, Peng Qi's first reaction was that Samoko was trying to flatter herself.
But after Peng Qi learned that Samoko had actually built a temple privately without being punished, he had to believe in the relationship between Samoko and Mi Yang.
Peng Qi's ancestors were Han Chinese, so he knew that according to the Han ritual system, only emperors were qualified to build temples.
Samoko's behavior is undoubtedly disrespectful.
But even so, Samoko can still jump around well, which shows invisibly how much Mi Yang protects Samoke.
After regarding Shamoko as Mi Yang's most important confidant, it was only natural that Peng Qi would send an envoy to express her feelings to Shamoko in order to take revenge and survive.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Coincidentally, not long after Peng Qi sent the surrender envoy, Mi Yang's envoy also arrived in Changsha County.
The order Mi Yang brought to Shamoko was: "Regulate the army and prepare for war. We will attack Yuzhang County in the near future."
On one side, Peng Qi, the famous Yuzhang commander, wanted to surrender, and on the other side, Mi Yang wanted to organize his own army and prepare for war. Looking at the two pieces of news in his hands, Shamoko, who felt that he had the qualifications to be a famous general, made a very normal decision.
Shamoko asked Peng Qi to hold his troops for the time being, and after he received new information, he would take advantage of the situation and raise troops to attack Sun Quan directly.
It was this news that Peng Qi had been waiting anxiously for all this time.
Seeing that there seemed to be no chance to receive news from Shamoko today, Peng Qi could not hide the look of disappointment on her face.
But just as he was going to rest with his head hanging down, one of his confidants rushed into the lobby.
"General, general, here we come!"
The cry from her confidant made Peng Qi quickly turn around.
The sharp-eyed Peng Qi saw the letter held in her confidant's hand at a glance.
After seeing the letter, Peng Qi couldn't help but be overjoyed. He rushed to his confidant, grabbed the letter from his hand, opened it and read it.
After quickly reading the contents of the letter, Peng Qi, who felt that she had hope for revenge, couldn't help but laugh to the sky.
After laughing, Peng Qi quickly said to her confidants:
"Send envoys quickly to summon familiar sect commanders from various places.
Let the messenger tell them that I have a great fortune to give them!"
...
A few days later, many Shanyue sect commanders summoned by Peng Qi came to the mountain where Peng Qi lived.
After seeing many sect commanders arriving, Peng Qi specially held a banquet in the hall.
Although Peng Qi has been avoiding the Wu army recently, she rarely appears in Yuzhang County.
But as the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention that Peng Qi is still alive and well. Relying on her own prestige, Peng Qi had a good time chatting with many Shanyue sect commanders during the banquet.
Peng Qi, who was full of wine and meat, and saw that time had quietly matured, put down the wine glass in her hand, and told all the Shanyue Sect Commanders present a piece of bombshell news.
"Mi Da Sima lowered his curtain to me and wanted to worship me as his general."
Peng Qi's voice was pure and honest, and his words quickly spread throughout the hall.
After hearing Peng Qi's words, many of the Shanyue Sect Commanders present were immediately shocked.
Some timid Sangoshou didn't even hold the wine glasses in their hands, and the wine spilled all over them.
To this day, who in the world still doesn’t know who the four characters Mi Da Sima refer to?
But how is this possible?
For many Shanyue sect commanders, although they were considered powerful locally, Mi Yang was like the unattainable sun to them.
For a moment, they found it hard to believe that Mi Yang would notice them, and it was even harder to believe that Mi Yang would value Peng Qi enough to appoint him as a general.
Don't look at it. After Huan Ling, the alien races in the world will cause chaos from time to time.
But this was when the Han army was not strong.
In recent years, under the leadership of Mi Yang, the Han army's military power has been restored.
In this way, the inferiority complex caused by fear in the hearts of many alien races suddenly reappeared.
Peng Qi, who was sitting at the top, saw doubts on the faces of many of the Shanyue Zongshuai sitting below, but he was not surprised.
As a member of Shan Yue Zhong, Peng Qi knew that those who still hold the title of Zong Commander are basically those who want to fight Sun Quan to the death.
If you don’t want to die, most of them have been recruited by Sun Quan in the past few decades.
Since he was going to fight Sun Quan to the death, when many Shanyue sect commanders heard that he had surrendered to Mi Yang, their reaction would not be fear, but only doubt.
And if the doubts in their hearts are not dispelled, then even if they want to resist Sun Quan, they will not follow him in the uprising.
No one knows Mi Yang’s attitude towards Shan Yue.
Compared with the usual rebellion against Sun Quan, Mi Yang was displeased by pretending to be Mi Yang's name to rebel, which was a consequence that many Shanyue sect commanders were unwilling to bear.
Under the questioning looks of many Zongshuai, Peng Qi took out the letter written by Samoko himself from her arms.
Peng Qi asked her cronies to deliver the letters one by one to Zong Shuai who was present.
While the commanders-in-chief were looking at each other's letters, Peng Qi continued to speak:
"General Huhan, most of you should know him.
His handwriting is no stranger to some handsome men than mine.
You can check to see if this letter was written by the general protecting the Han Dynasty."
Peng Qi deliberately emphasized the word "general to protect the Han" in order to reflect Samoko's "high status" in the Han army.
And what Peng Qi said is also true.
In the past two years, thanks to Peng Qi's introduction, Samoko has been in contact with many Shanyue sect commanders in Yuzhang County.
When there are many people, it is inevitable that there will be some who have the same temperament as Samoko.
In addition, Samoko and Yamagotsu Soshuai could not meet each other, so Samoko usually wrote letters in person to exchange feelings with those who were of similar temperament.
When Peng Qi finished speaking, some of the Yamagotsu Sect Commanders who were the first to read the contents of the letter unconsciously stood up to testify for Peng Qi.
"This letter is indeed the handwriting of the general protecting the Han Dynasty."
Why are those Yamagotsu sect commanders so determined?
Because the characters of Samoko are shaped like dry bones and crawling ghosts.
With words like this, I am afraid that Cangjie will be resurrected and Confucius will break the ground. I will probably vomit blood just reading it, let alone being confident enough to imitate it.
As some famous Yamakoshi Soshuai confirmed the authenticity of the letter, more and more Soshuai who read the contents of the letter couldn't help but exclaimed.
In his letter, Shamoko asked Peng Qi to raise troops to assist.
Seeing that the doubts on the faces of many Shanyue Zongmai were gradually disappearing, Peng Qi quickly pressed on and continued:
"You all know the status of General Protecting the Han in the heart of Mi Da Sima.
When the situation is urgent, we can regard General Huhan as the spokesperson of Mi Da Sima.
Without the approval of Grand Sima Mi, would General Huhan write a letter asking me to help?"
"I said I would give you a big fortune.
Although Grand Sima Mi intends to use me now, if you all can lend your full support and the great thing is accomplished, Grand Sima Mi will definitely reward you for your merits.
Of course, I want you to help me, and I really want to rely on you.
Only when we join forces can we shake Jiangdong and make Grand Sima Mi look southward at us."
Peng Qi knew the personalities of all the Shanyue Sect Commanders very well, and he knew that it would be better if some of his thoughts were expressed directly.
Sure enough, after Peng Qi finished speaking, many of the Shanyue Sect Commanders had expressions of emotion on their faces.
Those who can be summoned by Peng Qi today are all people who have enmity with Sun Quan.
Even if they don't rebel today, they will rebel tomorrow.
Since they all want to rebel, why not rebel when there is strong support and when Mi Yang needs them?
Don't be afraid of being used. Being used only shows that you are valuable.
After seeing the moved expressions on the faces of the Shanyue Sect Commanders, Peng Qi raised the dagger in her hand and then stabbed it hard into the fat flesh in front of her.
When the dagger entered the meat, Peng Qi's face showed a look of salivation. He cut the meat on the plate and said:
"As long as we can merge into one place, we can gather tens of thousands of people in an instant.
With tens of thousands of people and the elite troops sent by Mi Da Sima, how difficult would it be to seize every area of Yuzhang County?
Jiangdong has a vast territory and abundant resources, just like the delicious meat in front of you.
If you want to share the food, if you don't use the knife now, when will you wait?"
When she finished speaking, Peng Qi cut off a piece of meat and put it into her mouth, chewing it with enjoyment.
After seeing Peng Qi enjoying herself, many Shanyue Zongshuai could no longer hold back.
More and more knives appeared in Peng Qi's eyes, and the next moment they all pierced the piece of meat that was likened to the land of Jiangdong.
Today, the Commander-in-Chief of Yue Zong in Yuzhang Mountain is willing to share Jiangdong with Mi Da Sima!
