Chapter 472: Plotting to Pacify Jiangdong (1)
Yuzhang City. It's a mess now. I don't know where it came from, a rumor spread wildly among the garrison. There is a nose and an eye that it is said that Yuzhang is too guarded, and Sun Ce, the young master of the Sun family's army, has nothing to do, and this move to send troops angered the "genuine" Yangzhou Mu Liu Miao and the hussar general Wen Hou Lu Bu. provoked Xuzhou Assassin Shi Wuting Hou Qin Xu personally led the army to come to suppress it. Yangzhou Mu Liu Miao is even more charged with this, and is investigating all the family members of Wu County and Huiji who have served as soldiers in the Sun family's army to eat food.
Sun's ancestral home was originally Wu County, and most of the soldiers recruited were from Wu County. Those main elite soldiers brought by Sun Ce with him are okay to say, the dispatch of troops has not been affected, and Sun Jian's old soldiers will be the foundation, even if they hear the news, it is estimated that the impact will not be great. However, a large part of the soldiers who were left in Yuzhang by Sun Ce were newly recruited soldiers in Wujun, Huiji, Danyang and other places when they were first ordered by Yuan Shu to attack Jiangdong. Coupled with the instigation of people with intentions, and the contradictions between the local soldiers of Yuzhang who were watching the jokes, several factors were mixed together. Finally, Yuzhang City was in chaos without a fight.
Han Dang, Huang Gai, Ling Cao and others were worried about Sun Ce's attack on Fuguan, and after receiving the "handwritten letter" handed over by Yan Baihu, although they were also concerned about why it was transferred by Yan Baihu from all over the world, but seeing that both the seal and the handwriting were from Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, there was no longer any doubt. Without him, although Zhou Yu has not been a military advisor for a long time, his wisdom and treachery are really difficult to guess, and with Zhou Yu's handwriting and seals, the Sun generals thought that this was Zhou Yu's trick again. Besides, as far as the generals know, the previous plan to suppress Yan Baihu and make it used by his own army to contain Qin Xu's army was also from Zhou Yu's hand, and this time Yan Baihu suddenly arrived, and he was a very well-behaved general who led the army to be stationed outside the city, and his behavior was not rude at all. All kinds of attitudes made Yan Baihu's message easily win the approval of the Sun generals. Even until now, there was chaos in Yuzhang City. Quan Rou had to transfer troops to suppress the rebellion, and even when the soldiers were not enough, he asked Yan Baihu, who had been a trusted loyal minister for the past few days, to act as the outer guardian of Sun Ce's family. also shows how real Yan Baihu's drama is.
Yan Baihu was out of the way this time. As I said before, after learning that his baby son Yan Yu was really sent to the Qingzhou Jixia School Palace with Qin Xu's warrant, Yan Baihu was not only annoyed, but in this Yuzhang matter, he completely achieved a super-level performance. One has to sigh at the importance of a birth in this year. This is the hope of changing from a thief to an official identity. Just a hope can reap such an effect, so that Yan Baihu can easily exceed the "task" assigned to him by Qin Xu and Guo Jia.
It is said that Yan Baihu was able to sweep the Jiangdong half of the territory back then, and he can really be regarded as the number one person. At least in terms of mood, it is calm. There are no worries. After gaining the trust of the Yuzhang guards. Although he had the opportunity to get close to Sun Ce's family, Yan Baihu did not act rashly immediately.
It's not that Yan Baihu carries forward the tradition, and of course there is no tradition to speak of. It's just that the secret order that Yan Baihu received at the beginning was to enter Yuzhang and disrupt Yuzhang, so that Sun Ce's army could not care about each other. can make Sun Ce worry and chaos, it can already be regarded as a great success, and there is no need to make another move to beat Sun Ce's family. Therefore. Yan Baihu not only did not make any moves, but in the eyes of Quan Rou and Sun Jing, Sun He and other Sun generals, before Sun Ce returned to the army, almost regarded Yan Baihu as a loyal minister of the Sun family who could be used in the future. When Yan Baihu timely proposed to lead troops to clear out the stragglers in other states and counties in Yuzhang, this proposal was easily approved, and even Sun Jing gave Yan Baihu's more than 10,000 soldiers under his command 10,000 stone of military rations as a thank you on behalf of his sister-in-law, Mrs. Wu. And personally sent Yan Baihu gift out of Yuzhang County.
Sun Ce's army returned quickly. Almost with Yan Baihu led the troops to leave the front and rear feet, and stepped into the realm of Yuzhang. But now, it is difficult to find a quiet place in Yuzhang County. Of the five counties under its jurisdiction, except for the two counties of Zhishui and Pinggu, which are close to the north and bordering Danyang County, where the Shanyue clan has always been active, the remaining three counties, including Yuzhang City, are all "hard-hit areas" that have been deeply affected by the military. Just because Yuzhang produces grain and crops twice a year, otherwise Sun Ce would not have recovered his vitality in less than a year and marched eastward. Since these rebels were expelled from Yuzhang County by Quan Rou and Yan Baihu, they simply broke the jar and directly looted the other three counties that were the granaries of Yuzhang. The chaotic army grew bigger and bigger, and in just a few days, before Sun Ce waved his troops back to help, there were already more than 3,000 people. For Qin Xu, who learned the news, it could be regarded as an unexpected joy, but for Sun Cejun, it could only be regarded as worse.
After listening to what Sun Jing and Quan Rou said about the chaotic situation in Yuzhang, especially mentioning Yan Baihu's "great kindness" to the Sun family, the expression on Sun Ce's face was simply wonderful. On the way back to the army, according to the news of Yuzhang that kept coming, as well as the root cause of the rebellion that Sun Ce secretly sent people to investigate, coupled with the deduction of Zhou Yu's illness, the generals of the Sun family could fully imagine that when Yan Baihu left, they might be laughing at the incompetence of themselves and others. The huge Yuzhang, the Sun family, who has the inheritance of the military saint, was turned around by a thief like this, not only letting go of the culprit who caused the rebellion in Yuzhang County, but even making it play with flowers. After the chaos, he even took Sun's "thanks" and the 10,000 stone military rations that were sent, and walked away calmly before Sun Ce returned to the army, no wonder since Sun Ce and below, especially Quan Rou, who regarded him as a robe before, and Sun Jing, who was personally sent to the city gate, had a constipated look on his face.
And for Sun Ce, these are really nothing. There are rebellious soldiers in the state and county, and the bullet pressure is enough. As long as Yan Baihu is still in Yuzhang, the left and right will not run away from him. Now that Yan Baihu has taken refuge in Qin Xu, it is an indisputable fact, as long as he guards against this guy and Qin Xu, as soon as the combined army comes out, he doesn't believe that there is only one Yan Baihu, after there is no logistics supply, the lone army goes deep south into this realm in the mountains, and the mountains are more and more barbaric, and the few passages are only in the two northern counties. and Yuzhang County, a pass of Fuguan in the east, how much good can be pleased.
Therefore, at the moment, only the true movements of this really cunning and tight Qin Xu are the henchmen of the Sun generals. This time Fuguan is a good show to take advantage of the situation. made the Sun soldiers hold their breath alive. The worry about the combat power of the Qingzhou soldiers and Danyang soldiers led by Qin Xu this time has been reduced a lot. Even the generals and generals still looked forward to Qin Xu's immediate dispatch to Yuzhang County, relying on the advantages of this lofty mountains and mountains, and the good students competed with the Danyang soldiers, who were known as the veteran elite soldiers in the world, and the Qingzhou soldiers, who had become famous in the past two years. However, Qin Xu's army of 30,000 suddenly seemed to be missing, obviously the army led by the three veterans of the Sun family before had already been detected by the horse sentinel to detect that Qin Xu's army had moved, but somehow, it had been a few days since the withdrawal of troops from Fuguan. But he didn't hear any more news about the actions of Qin Xu's army. The unknown is the most worrying. Just for the sake of the traces of Qin Xu and Yan Baihu's army that suddenly evaporated from the world, Sun Ce didn't know how many wines he had dropped for this matter.
And Zhou Yu, as Sun Cejun's military advisor, has not been in good health in recent days. Since he vomited blood because of his anger, he was worried about Yuzhang's urgent march, and he has not been able to recuperate, since he returned to Yuzhang. ran into Yan Baihu's escape again, which made Zhou Yu, who single-handedly pushed Yan Baihu's matter, depressed. Coupled with the news of the sudden disappearance of Qin Xu's army, Zhou Yu, who was already very preoccupied, was visibly emaciated, and after only a few days of hard work, when Sun Ce saw Zhou Yu again, he had already lost a lot of weight. Originally, it was a handsome face, but at this moment, the eyes are deep-set and the cheeks are sunken, which can almost be described as a pin-shaped bone. Let Sun Ce, who had seen that Zhou Yu had not responded for a few days and came to explore, was taken aback.
"Gong Jin! You and my brother have been fighting together since we joined forces. There are also a lot of strong winds and waves. Thanks to Gong Jin's wisdom. Only then did we have the strength to wait for today. Although he was trapped in Yuzhang, he had enough food and well, and he was not afraid of the strength of Qin's army. Gong Jin is bold in public and truthful, and in selfishness, you and I are righteous brothers. Friendship is better than biological life. Gong Jin must take care of his body, don't worry too much and hurt the origin! As for that Qin Xu, it's a big deal to let this thief gain momentum this time, you and I don't want to look for him to make a comeback, let alone a mere Yuzhang, even if it is a land in Jiangdong, compared to Gongjin, it is insignificant! Sun Ce looked at Zhou Yu lying on the sickbed, holding Zhou Yu's emaciated hands tightly, looking excited, as if he was cheering Zhou Yu on, more like cheering himself up.
"Don't worry! Yu is fine! Zhou Yu sat on the bed with Sun Ce's support, tried to squeeze out a smile with a sick face, shook Sun Ce's hand, shook his head and said: "Bo Fu must not say anything about his children, and there is no need to excuse Yu. This time, Yu really underestimated Qin Xu and Guo Jia. Qin Xu was able to make a good name in just three years, in addition to the help of his father-in-law Lu Bu, he was really a personal masterpiece, not a person who could be despised by his 'background' poverty. And the other person, Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao, is like having unpredictable abilities. After thinking about it in the past few days, when we first implemented the Jiangdong strategy, we had actually fallen into this person's calculations. From spreading rumors to lure us and others to attack Fuguan, to luring Qin Xu's troops to attack Xiaoguan, occupy Danyang, and aid Fuguan, it seems that step by step is under its control. It's ridiculous that I, Zhou Yu, am like a frog at the bottom of a well, and when I still think I have a plan, I have already entered the nest before I know it, which is really ridiculously tight. The danger of such a character is definitely above that of someone in Qin. Bethfu...... If you have the chance, you will kill him!! ”
"Gong Jin! Qin Xu's matter may be that our army has not done its duty to explore horses, after all, this Yuzhang is surrounded by mountains, and there are many mountains and barbarism, and it is not easy to investigate. However, Ce will definitely send more probes, and the left and right will not let someone in that Qin succeed in their tricks again. And that Guo Jia, these things will be talked about in the future, and the strategy is all up to you. Gong Jin will first focus on taking care of the body, and Gong Jin must also plan for a certain one. Listen to Zhou Yu's careful instructions. Somehow, Sun Ce actually had the feeling that Zhou Yu was explaining what was going on. With this thought, Sun Ce hurriedly stopped Zhou Yu from continuing to speak, and comforted Zhou Yu and said.
"Bo Fu, what did you just say?" Sun Ce said sincerely, but Zhou Yu's mind was not here, listening to Sun Ce's comforting words, as if he had suddenly grasped something, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked.
