Chapter 548, Lingnan

Jiaozhou was a state established by Emperor Wu of the former Han Dynasty after he destroyed the Nanyue Kingdom. It was called Jiaozhi Governor at that time, and it was not renamed Jiaozhou until the eighth year of Jian'an (AD 203) of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty.

From the changes in names, we can see the slow penetration of Central Plains culture.

In other words, the main reason why the Nanyue Kingdom established by Zhao Tuo in the past has been passed down for nearly a hundred years is that the Central Plains Dynasty never paid attention to Lingnan, a land of hundreds of ethnic groups (Yue).

In the same way, there are few roads on which large armies can travel.

For example, if the Han Dynasty wanted to enter Jiaozhou from Nanzhong, there were only two places to choose from.

One is the traditional Zangdao ancient path.

Going south along the river valley of the Cangda River (Beipanjiang River-Hongshui River), you can enter Yulin County, Jiaozhou, and reach Panyu (now Guangzhou) in Nanhai County.

In the past, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty opened up the Nanyi Road to Zangqi County and conquered the Yelang Kingdom on the basis of the Wuchi Road. The biggest reason was to open up and control the waterway leading to Lingnan (the Pearl River water system).

However, this river valley has too many dangerous shoals, and there are often dangers such as flash floods or debris collapse during periods of abundant rain, so it gradually fades out of people's sight as time goes by.

The other is the two waterways in Yizhou County (Jianning and Yunnan County).

They go south along the Jinxi (Panlong River) and Xisuishui (Red River) valleys, and directly arrive at the heart of Jiaozhi County (Red River Delta Plain).

These two waterways are the routes with the most trade today.

For example, when Shi Xie was the leader in Jiaozhou, he often purchased Yunnan horses from this route as annual tribute to Sun Quan.

After the Battle of Yiling, the late emperor Liu Bei died. Shi Xie lured Yong Kai to rebel and invade Wu, and accepted Sun Quan's appointment as the governor of Yongchang. Yong Kai offered his sincerity to attach himself to Jiangdong. It was also the same route that led to the newly appointed governor of Yizhou, Zhang Yi.

He was taken to Jiaozhi and transferred to Shi Xie, who then transferred it to Lu Dai who was stationed in Panyu.

After the prime minister put down the Nanzhong rebellion, he analyzed the southern part of Zanggao County and the southeast corner of Yizhou County. The biggest reason for setting up Xinggu County was to more conveniently control these three roads leading to Jiaozhou.

Therefore, it was quite foreseeable that Lu Dai, who was sent to Jiaozhou by Sun Quan, would emphasize Jiaozhi and neglect Yulin in his defensive deployment.

Instead, he ordered deputy general Liu Zuan to enter Yulin County as a special governor to prevent the Han army from invading from the Zangdao River valley.

Among them, Liu Zuan stationed more than 4,000 troops in Bushan County, while his general Nie You led 2,000 troops into Zengshi County in the Yushui (Youjiang) Valley to garrison; while Qian Bo, the western captain of Gaoliang,

He was recruited by Lu Dai to lead Fang County and garrisoned it with more than 2,000 troops.

Liu Zuan was the son-in-law of Sun Quan's second daughter (not Sun Luyu), so he was the best choice to guard the rear.

Nie You is from Yuzhang County.

He was named Wen Ti and was born in a humble family. He was a county official at a young age and was good at both civil and military affairs.

When Yu Fan was exiled to Jiaozhou by Sun Quan, Nie You escorted him out of the county, so he was praised by Yu Fan and promoted as a meritorious officer of the county. Later, he was sent to Kyoto (Jianye) by the prefect, and was appreciated by Zhuge Ke again, and he turned over to him at all costs.

Make friends.

Zhuge Ke's talent and learning made him the leader among the younger generation in Jiangdong.

Those who can be regarded as friends by him will naturally not be inferior in talent and learning. Therefore, Nie You began to become famous in Jiangdong, and with Zhuge Ke's kind words and recommendation, he was reused by Sun Quan.

Qian Bo was the first bandit leader who lived in Gaoliang.

Later, he surrendered to Lu Dai, and he inherited the old system and was worshiped as the western captain of Gaoliang (county). He was regarded as a Lingnan hero who was willing to die for Lu Dai.

This is why Lu Dai asked him to lead troops from across the county.

Well, Gaoliang was originally a county in Hepu County, and was later analyzed by Sun Quan and established as a county.

As for Jiaozhi County, which was heavily guarded by troops, Lu Dai did not divide his troops.

Because of the river winding from Xinggu County to the Jinxi River and Xisui River in Jiaozhi County, a long section of the river valley was occupied by barbarian tribes. The government did not set up townships and counties until the plain area where the two rivers converged.

City village.

Lu Dai and more than 8,000 people from his headquarters led by Suichun were stationed at the confluence of the two rivers (today's Nanyue Pond).

Suichun was the earliest rebel from Dongye, Jian'an County (today's Fuzhou). After surrendering to Lu Dai, he was awarded the title of partial general, commanded the headquarters and became Lu Dai's general.

It can be said that Lu Dai's defensive strategy in Jiaozhou was to wait for work.

At the expense of not guarding Yulin County and the barbaric areas in the northern part of Jiaozhi County, the invading Han army would have to travel a longer distance, making the transportation of food and supplies more difficult.

Moreover, such deployment is an advantage for Wu Jun.

The barbarian tribes that lingered in the dangerous mountains and deep swamps had always refused to accept the king's rule and were prone to robbery.

When Han and Wu were conducting trade, they often plundered passing caravans.

Today, if the Han army passes through their habitat, they will inevitably be invaded.

Although with the strength of these tribes, they would not be stupid enough to act like a chariot, but relying on their good climbing skills and familiarity with the terrain, groups of small and medium-sized groups sneaked in at night to steal the Han army's Yunnan horses, grain and baggage, etc.

It is inevitable.

It can be regarded as an unexpected and exhausting strategy.

But everything has advantages and disadvantages.

Although Lu Dai's strategy of waiting for work can succeed, it will also cause hidden dangers.

The reason is that Jiangdong's control over Jiaozhou is not stable.

In other words, Lingnan, as the land of hundreds of ethnic groups (Yue), cannot be convinced by the strength of Wu State.

Jiangdong's ability to incorporate Jiaozhou into its territory was the result of completely uprooting the Shi family. However, when Lu Dai wiped out the Shi family, his methods could not satisfy the powerful rightists and barbarian tribes in Jiaozhou.

In the past, when Lu Dai sent troops to attack Shi Hui's rebellion, he also sent Shi Kuang to lobby for the benefits, claiming that surrendering would be a thing of the past and the family would be safe. However, after Shi Hui obeyed, he led six brothers to surrender naked. However, Lu Dai broke his promise and ordered the general to surrender.

They all beheaded and passed on to establish the cause.

At that time, all the old officials of the scholar family were indignant.

For example, Shi Hui's generals Gan Li, Huan Zhi and others led the officials and people to attack Lu Dai. However, the army had no legitimate leader and the opportunity was lost. Instead, Lu Dai fought hard and defeated it.

But for Jiangdong, the hidden danger of the disobedience of the scholars and the barbarian tribes remained.

Even though Lu Dai later sent officials to the south (Nanyang Islands and Southeast Asia) many times when he was guarding Jiaozhou to declare nationalization, and ordered many small countries such as Funan, Linyi and Tangming to send envoys to Wu to pay tribute, there was no

Change the situation of distrust among the Lingnan tribes towards Jiangdong.

The reason why there has never been another rebellion is simply that there is no leader.

Once the Han army comes south, those powerful rightists or barbarian tribes who did not submit to Jiangdong and whose fathers died in the war will inevitably take action.

For example, there may be people who rely on the whole clan, or people who send people from other clans as guides, or people who secretly provide food and supplies, or people who secretly inform the Wu army of the garrison in counties and counties, etc.

It cannot be done one by one.

Lu Dai knew this very well.

However, Sun Quan was unable to provide sufficient food, fodder and baggage, so he ordered his troops to march north to resist the enemy.

The only choice is the lesser of the two powers harming each other.

However, what he didn't know was that the situation was much more serious than what he expected.
