In fact, Nanzhong is a very general concept. It refers to the area south of Yizhou and south of Lu River. In reality, it should be regarded as the Yunnan-Guizhou region. However, the area in the Samsara Three Kingdoms is huge, many times larger than in reality. However, according to the
In terms of scale and map, the terrain of this area is similar to the actual geographical location of Yunnan and Guizhou, and basically falls within the scope of Nanzhong.
Although it belongs to the territory of Yizhou and the territory of the Han Dynasty, it is just because most of it is an undeveloped and desolate land with a vast land and sparsely populated areas. Not to mention NPCs, even players rarely come to such a place.
Although most players know that the Yunnan-Guizhou region has developed in modern times, and among the Samsara Three Kingdoms, the resource index is also based on reality. In the entire Samsara Three Kingdoms, the resource index of the southern and central areas can definitely rank among the top three among all states and counties, but the problem is this
The area is too deserted at the moment.
No NPC Han people are willing to come here, and the barbarians are xenophobic. If you want to develop a city here, not only will the barbarian refugees you recruit easily rebel, but the territory will also be easily attacked by the barbarians. If you want to succeed here, it will be like going to heaven.
Difficult, over time, this place has become a real barren land. Not only will NPC Han people not come here, but even players, except for some adventurous players who pursue high-level monsters, will rarely build a city here. Even if they are
If you are assigned here, it will be difficult to develop even if you want to reach the sky.
Nowadays, there are many strong players in the player world, but none of them come from here. Now Nanzhong is basically in a very primitive state of autonomy.
Of course, there are not only barbarians in the Nanzhong area, there are also many Han people, but generally speaking, most Han people live in a few cities, while the barbarians basically live in the mountains and forests, and they basically live together with the Han people.
Communicate with each other.
Previously, the governor of Yizhou was Liu Yan. During his tenure, the Nanzhong barbarians rebelled several times, but most of them were suppressed. However, Liu Yan died this year, and his son Liu Zhang took over as the governor of Yizhou. The transfer of power is always accompanied by
There were many turbulences. In fact, even when Liu Yan was alive, his control over Nanzhong was limited to the central and northern areas of Zhuti and Jianning. As for the other areas of Yongchang, Yunnan, Xinggu and southern Jianning, although they were named
It was under the rule of Yizhou, but basically it was not under Liu Yan's control.
Now that Liu Zhang has succeeded to the throne, although the transfer of power is relatively smooth, he is unable to take care of this place. The mountains are high here and the emperor is far away. The barbarians and some Han aristocratic families each divide their own spheres of influence. The Han people are headed by the two great families of Yong and Lu, and the leaders of the barbarians
Naturally, they were several barbarian kings.
Qin Tian's goal this time was to conquer several major barbarian forces in the south. Unlike Jiaozhou, Jiaozhou was still ruled by the Han people at least in name. The Yue people were often suppressed by the Han people, so they could promise various benefits to them.
The Yue people are used by Qingtian City, but the Nanman people in Nanzhong are very different.
The Nanman people are different from the Yue people in Jiaozhou. They have great autonomy and there is no question of who belongs to whom. However, after countless years of getting along with each other, here, the Han people and the barbarians basically belong to the kind of people who do not conflict with each other if they want to conquer them.
The Southern Barbarians must be subdued with real skills. At least in the overall situation, there is no clever plan.
"Military advisor, do you really have no other strategy to follow?" Inside Bushan County, the seat of Yulin County, Qin Tian looked at the map and frowned at Jia Xu.
The terrain in Nanzhong is too complex. If he wants to force it, Qin Tian doesn't know how much energy he will need to expend. Now Qingtian City is surrounded by enemies on three sides. Yuan Shu has just been defeated by Cao Cao. Whether there is a naval force or not, it is estimated that he will be honest for a while, but let's not worry about it for now.
, but Liu Biao and Sun Jian are the formidable enemies. Liu Biao has many soldiers and supplies, and can withstand consumption. Sun Jian has many capable people in his camp, which cannot be ignored. Moreover, the situation in the Central Plains is treacherous and changeable. If you spend too much time in Nanzhong, you may miss it.
many things.
More importantly, the occupation of Jiaozhou by Qingtian City has aroused the vigilance of the people in Nanzhong. The Nanzhong family, headed by the Yong and Lu families, persuaded several barbarian kings to form an offensive and defensive alliance when Qin Tian stabilized Jiaozhou.
, it will obviously take a lot of effort for Qingtian City to capture the Southern Barbarians.
Now I don't know where I learned that Qingtian City was gathering troops in Yulin County. Yongkai took the lead, connected with several barbarian kings and the Yue Yi King Gaoding, and gathered hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses to prepare for a confrontation with Qin Tian.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses were pieced together by several parties. According to common sense, they should be regarded as a mob. However, the terrain in Nanzhong is complex, the time, place and people are favorable, and Qingtian City cannot be occupied. Even if the troops are elite, it is difficult to play a decisive role.
.
Zhou Tai on the side frowned and said: "Although the Yong and Lu families are not as powerful as the Central Plains clans, it is difficult to achieve success. However, in the southern barbarian land, the roads are closed, the terrain is complex, and there are many poisonous insects, snakes, ants, ferocious birds and beasts, making it difficult to march. If our army
If we really want to conquer the Southern Barbarians, I’m afraid there will be many disadvantages.”
After a year of getting along with each other, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, the two generals who were forced to surrender, now basically have a sense of belonging to Qingtian City as long as they are not involved in the war in Jingnan. From the beginning, they followed orders and now,
From time to time, he would express some of his own opinions. Although his loyalty was still lower than that of most generals in Qingtian City, Qin Tian was very satisfied.
Looking at Zhou Tai approvingly, Jia Xu nodded and said: "General Youping is right, but the military manual says that when it comes to military conquests, this time the military strategy in Nanzhong is not for the land of Nanzhong, but for the future."
Prepare for the expedition to Yizhou. This expedition is not only to occupy the land in Nanzhong, nor to exterminate the barbarians in Nanzhong, but to conquer their hearts and become the biggest boost for our army to move into Sichuan in the future."
"Conquer?" Jiang Qin, who had been frowning silently, couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this, and his voice couldn't help but raise a few degrees.
Jiang Qin has been active in the Yangtze River area and has heard about the Southern Barbarians. The Southern Barbarians believed that the mountains were high and the emperor was far away, so they refused to accept the king's rule. In history, they rebelled several times and were put down several times. However, these people were very cunning and relied on their familiarity with the terrain. Today,
It was broken, and there would be another rebellion tomorrow, and the cycle started over and over again, so that in the end, the court had no choice but to turn a blind eye.
Even when the Han Dynasty was at its peak, it could not completely conquer the Southern Barbarians. Now that the imperial court was in decline, and Qingtian City was even known as a rebellious official and traitor, Jiang Qin's first reaction was that this was impossible.
"That's right." Jia Xu nodded, the expression on his face not changing at all, but people who are familiar with him can see a touch of confidence in his eyes.
"How is this possible?" Jiang Qin looked at the expression on Jia Xu's face. It didn't look like he was faking it. He couldn't help but feel hesitant, but still a little unbelievable. Not only him, but also the other generals in the tent looked at Jia Xu blankly.
There is a strong distrust. After all, Qingtian City's military advisers are headed by two second-grade counselors, Li Ru and Feng Ji. Even though Qin Tian has great trust in Jia Xu, he does not understand him after all.
"Please also ask the military advisor to make it clear." Qin Tian had no doubts, because Zhuge Liang had done this in history. Zhuge Liang Jia Xu said that even if the Samsara Three Kingdoms gave the base numbers of both sides, it is difficult to judge the relationship between the two based on these numbers.
It is difficult to judge who is strong and weak because they have never fought each other, but what Zhuge Liang can do, Jia Xu may not be able to do.
Jia Xu nodded, looked at the crowd and said: "This expedition to Nanzhong is related to the future fortune of our Qingtian City. Therefore, this battle is not to destroy the Southern Barbarians. These Southern Barbarians have high mountains and high mountains and are far away. They have not obeyed the king's rule for a long time. Today they are defeated."
, will rebel again tomorrow, so in this battle, attacking the city is the priority, and attacking the heart is the priority."
"Gong Xin?" Zhou Tai and others' eyes were as wide as copper bells. They didn't know why, but Qin Tian looked at Jia Xu in surprise, because Gong Xin only said that basically, it coincided with Zhuge Liang's strategy in history.
.
"Yes, take this opportunity to completely convince Nanman. Once and for all, not only will he no longer be a danger, but he will become a great help to our Qingtian City," Jia Xu nodded.
"It's just about the Central Plains..." Qin Tian frowned slightly. Since Jia Xu could tell it, he probably had it on record. He wasn't worried about Nannanzhong's problems, but was worried about the Central Plains. Before that, Sun Ce had already counted
This time he launched an attack on Jiaozhou, and Liu Pan, Wenpin, who was stationed in Jiangxia, was also ready to attack. With Zhou Yu alone, there was probably no one in Qingtian City who could resist him except Jia Xu.
"Don't worry, my lord, since Xu advocated sending troops, how could he not be prepared? Within a year, our army will be as stable as Mount Tai, and we can attack Nanzhong with peace of mind." Jia Xu said with a smile, and a strategizing temperament emerged spontaneously in his movements.
It makes people involuntarily convinced.
"In that case, then send troops to Nanzhong." Qin Tian nodded, no longer hesitating, and said decisively that he and Jia Xu had an agreement. If he wanted to use Jia Xu, he would not care what Jia Xu did, he only wanted the results.
As for the process, it was all handled by Jia Xu. He would never interfere unless Jia Xu said anything.
"Thank you for your trust, Lord." Qin Tian's unreserved support moved Jia Xu somewhat. After all, not everyone has the courage. Even if they know that the other party is loyal to him, they still want to know everything about many things.
…
Now that Qin Tian has made his decision, the next thing will be much easier.
Nowadays, the three veteran generals of Qingtian City, Gao Chong, Taishi Ci, and Gan Ning, are each guarding one side, but in this expedition to Nanzhong, Qin Tian has no shortage of generals around him.
Not to mention Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, there are also Yue Xi, Guan Hai, Wang Shuang, Zou Yulan, Teng Fang and Zhang Ning who is proficient in magic. To a large extent, they can reverse the disadvantages of time and place.
Early the next morning, the army set out. In order to send troops to Nanzhong, Qin Tian prepared for a full year in Jiaozhou in order to conquer the Nanzhong barbarians in one fell swoop. As for the two great families of Yong and Lu, Qin Tianye and Jia Xu
After discussion, although the Yong and Lu families are not as good as the Central Plains family, or even the three major families in Jiangdong today, it is precisely because of this that their loyalty to the Han Dynasty is not strong. Perhaps in the future, these two families can
It might become a stepping stone for Qingtian City to enter Yizhou, so from the beginning, choose the strategy of conquering as much as possible.
