Following the uprising, Wu Jun and others surrendered to Lu Xun, and the rebellions in the three counties of Jiangdong were put down.
This is foreseeable.
Judging from the fact that various tribes in the east of the Yangtze River have been fighting against Shanyue all year round and there are many people in counties and counties who are in chaos, it can be deduced that it is only within Jing'an and it is a matter of easy capture.
As a result of the continuous war, all the autumn harvests and stores of supplies in the three counties were wiped out, and there were also post-war rewards and troops for rebellion by various ministries, which made Sun Quan feel that the treasury was empty and money and food were tight.
In the end, despite the advice of the ministers, he gritted his teeth and implemented the currency "Daquanqian", which was regarded as drinking doves to quench his thirst.
This move is indeed foolish.
Not to mention that the aristocratic families in Wudi deeply hated the government's scheming and plundering methods.
The powerful people far away in Jingnan all turned from being rather critical when "Daquan Five Hundred" was released to being filled with righteous indignation.
What is even more frightening is that Pan Jun, whom Jiangdong relied on to appease the powerful rightists in Jingnan, had lost his prestige due to his previous defeat in Jingshan and was unable to suppress them.
After all, Sun Quan now plans to conquer Huainan and look north to the Central Plains to forge ahead. All the benefits are distributed to the wealthy families of Wu and the Huaisi scholars who are staying in Jiangdong.
How can I harm Jingchu Haoyou's money, food and foundation, and make Wu Yue's disciples benefit from evil?
Therefore, the hatred accumulated from the frequent attacks between the two places during the lifetimes of Sun Ce and Liu Biao was once again spread by caring people in the countryside, and even spread to Jiaozhou, which had weak control in Jiangdong.
Of course, this is an internal matter within Jiangdong, and Zheng Pu doesn't care about it.
The big man Gein is also facing a lot of troublesome things now.
First, Wu Yi, the general of the left chariot and cavalry, had just died of illness.
This is what everyone expected: Emperor Liu Chan was already sick in bed during his northern tour.
Moreover, he was already in his seventies, and with the example of Zhao Yun passing away before him, people knew that even if he could survive the severe cold of winter, he would not be able to survive the severe cold of spring.
When the emperor visited Hanzhong County on his northern tour, he was lucky enough to be diagnosed with a disease and ordered the accompanying imperial physician to treat him with side vision syndrome.
At that time, he seemed to have expected that he would die soon. He held the emperor's hand and said goodbye with tears, saying: "I have no regrets in this life, but I can't wait to see your majesty return to the old capital!"
The enthusiasm of the veteran minister made everyone present shed tears.
Another thing is that not long after the emperor returned to Chengdu, he announced to the world and established a heir apparent.
The emperor's eldest son Liu Xuan, who was fourteen years old, was made the crown prince.
This incident surprised everyone.
It is clear that the Emperor of Heaven was prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, and at this time the whole country was preparing for the Northern Expedition to seize Guanzhong, so why did it cause trouble for the imperial court?
But after learning the reason, no one came forward to advise.
Empress Zhang's bedridden condition is getting worse and worse, and the imperial doctors are at their wits' end, fearing that the situation will soon...
The only thing the emperor could think of and do was to make Liu Xuan, who was raised by Empress Zhang as his own son, his heir. I hope that in case of emergency, he can give her some comfort.
Die.
When Zhang Yan found out about this, she planned to leave the little tiger head to the wet nurse and return to Chengdu.
But as soon as everything was settled and set off, there were signs of retching before leaving Ji County.
Her second pregnancy came a bit urgently and at the wrong time.
But no matter what, she could no longer trek the Shu Road.
Things in the world are unpredictable, and nine times out of ten things are not what people want.
Alas~
Longyou, Ji County.
On the banks of the Wei River, which has not seen many snowfalls, the mountains in the distance are covered with dark blue and the smoke is rising near the water.
As Zheng Pu returned to Luomenju in the setting sun, his mood slowly rose and fell as he rode his horse.
Jiang Wei and Zhang Bao, who were in Wuwei County, Hexi Province, reported to the prime minister Zahu's willingness to serve as an internal agent, and also attached their respective opinions.
They advocated sending troops.
It's not that Zahu's sincerity is unmistakable.
Rather, he felt that even if the Zahu tribe was sent by the Wei Dynasty to pretend to surrender, they could still use it as a trick.
For example, in the story of Bone Lian, the plan of their tribal leader Jise Duoman and the great witch was to invite the Han army to burn down the Wei army's grain storage area, and the prerequisite for this was to first occupy the camp at Quwu Mountain.
This premise was the basis for Jiang Wei and Zhang Bao to give it a try.
As for the Han army, with Wei's strength of about 8,000 infantry and cavalry south of the Helan Mountains and mainly composed of soldiers stationed in the fields, they could not withstand the Han army's front in field battles or positional battles.
The reason why we haven't sent out troops to fight for it is because of concerns about affecting our whole body.
The prime minister did not want to induce Wei Guo's heavy troops stationed in Gaoping City to invade Longyou, forcing the two sides to fight in advance, making it difficult to continue the national policy of recuperation.
Another reason is that the march from Wuwei Puchang outpost to Helan Mountain is very far.
And based on this, the Wei State used the natural dangers of the river to fortify layers of defenses, eliminating the possibility of a decisive battle for the Han army.
In other words, if the Han army wanted to march into the Helan Mountains, the Hexi Treasury must reserve at least enough grain to last for half a year before the war could begin.
But now that the Zahu tribe has surrendered, they have the opportunity to mobilize troops.
If they were sincere, Jiang Wei and Zhang Bao would march forward to get a chance to severely damage the Wei army; if they were pretending to surrender, they could use their trick to capture Qu Wushan's camp and then retreat.
Although, skilled hunters often appear as prey.
However, with the Han army's field combat prowess and the Wei army's lack of strength, if they dared to treat themselves as prey to lure the enemy, they would be self-defeating.
Yes, the Wei army did not have a military advantage.
If the Han army marches out, in order to cooperate with Zahu in seizing the camp, Jiang Wei and Zhang Bao will inevitably go with two to three thousand infantry. Adding in four thousand cavalry, the force will be evenly matched.
Moreover, after they came to write the letter, Zhao Guangbu, who patrolled the Wushui River Valley on a daily basis, and Xi Zuo, who was lurking in Guanzhong, found no signs of Wei increasing troops from Guanzhong to Helan Mountain.
On the contrary, at the beginning of autumn, Sima Yi also sent two troops and about ten thousand people to Jingxiang.
Because Cao Rui was gathering troops and horses at that time, intending to recapture the new city of Hefei, he asked various troops in Yongliang to contain Jiangdong's troops in Jingzhou, so that they would not dare to go east to reinforce Huainan.
Of course, sending troops has its drawbacks.
The most practical thing is that the Han Dynasty is not ready to send troops out of Helan Mountain.
But thinking about it on the other hand, this idea is inevitably a bit pedantic.
Things in the world are as changeable as a dog in the white clouds!
Let alone a fleeting opportunity, how can you be fully prepared before it arrives?
All a general can do is to think carefully when seizing the opportunity!
Therefore, the prime minister still agreed to Jiang Wei and Zhang Bao's request.
The reply stated that they had been given the right to make decisions on the spot beforehand, and as long as it did not affect the overall situation and could fully display their talents, there was no need to ask for instructions again.
But everyone knows that the prime minister's approval was also due to the death of Wu Yi - with the decline of old ministers, it is natural to give more opportunities to young generals to gain experience.
