While Jiang Qin smiled bitterly at his mother-in-law's pettiness, he was also in deep joy. He got the good thing he had dreamed of - water test. His ability was in water, but he had spent most of his life in Ruxuwu.
There was no decent Shuikao, let alone one made of fine buffalo leather. He had long had the idea of a Chaohu Water City, but he was weak and unable to get what he wanted. Unexpectedly,
After helping Cao Zhi on a trip to Wancheng, he actually had the opportunity to live in Shuicheng, which he could only look at from afar before. Looking at his new home, he didn't know it was Zheng Bao's concubine who lived there before. The yard was kept very elegant, and Jiang Qin felt
Kai! I vow to follow Cao Zhi and work hard and make a name for myself.
Zheng Bao mainly operates in the Chaohu area, so naturally the navy equipment is very complete. Cao Zhi also needed it, so he asked Jiang Qin to take out everything from Zheng Bao's warehouse and arm his newly established navy.
The Lujiang naval force originally affiliated to Lu Kang had a thousand men when it left Wancheng. In the battle of Ruxuwu, more than half were killed or wounded, leaving five or six hundred men left. Since Min Guang died in the battle, it has been led by Jiang Qin. Cao Zhi has also not
They were treated badly. After they settled in Chaohu, they also had a share of what their own soldiers had. This month's military report was also given to them by Cao Zhi.
People are more irritating than others. Seeing that the water thieves brothers who used to squat in Ruxuwu and haha are now doing better than themselves. Cao Zhi, the captain of Yangzhou, is also kind to people, has clear rewards and punishments, and is very righteous. Even the navy of Lujiang secretly
It was much better to follow him than to go back to Lujiang and look down upon him. So he sent eloquent officers to discuss with Jiang Qin. They also wanted to follow Cao Duwei and did not want to go back to Wancheng again.
Cao Zhi didn't care much about these five or six hundred troops now. He suddenly had tens of thousands of troops and felt a little fat. But Jiang Qin thought that these brothers had a poor background like him, so he still handed over the message.
He went up and tried his best to persuade Cao Zhi to accept these people. This put Cao Zhi in a difficult position. He didn't mind accepting these people, but would Lu Kang agree? This was obvious poaching.
Just when Cao Zhi and Jiang Qin were in trouble, Li Ru came up with an idea!
Li Ru asked these five or six hundred Lujiang navy soldiers to die together with the brothers who died in Ruxuwu, wrote their names on the death list, and reported it to Lu Kang. Then he asked these people to join Cao Cao with another name.
Zhi's army went through this process of changing the soup without changing the medicine, and Cao Zhi justifiably accepted this group of navy troops.
Or else the scholar's mind will turn. Li Ru once again demonstrated his value, or once again demonstrated his cunning as a counselor.
That night, these soldiers were still making fun of each other in the barracks!
"Wang Erma, what is your name now?"
"Wang Xiaoer! Why can't you remember?"
"Haha... If you can't change it at the moment, don't forget to ask Mr. Li to write you a family letter and go back later. If the Lujiang side gives you a pension, don't let your wife leak it."
"I know, I know, it's rare for his grandma to die and have a chance to make a fortune. How could I let such a good thing go to waste! Hahaha..."
If Lu Kang heard these words now, I wonder if he would be so angry that he would have a brain attack.
Half a month later, Cao Zhi left 5,000 troops in Chaohu and Ruxuwu, commanded by Li Hu, assisted by Li Ru and Li Dian. He led 10,000 troops back to Wancheng. Wang Ping, Jiang Qin, Cao An, Du
Du Yi, Pu Hu, Yuan Yue, Li Hei, and Yangche all followed Cao Zhi. Lu Kang probably didn't know Du Yi and the others. In addition to paying attention to barbarian leaders like Li Hu, he was still unfamiliar with his subordinates.
, besides, he didn’t let them enter Wancheng, he just led his troops to station outside the city.
Cao Zhi has always been careful in his actions, and he has a deep meaning in this arrangement. It is not that he does not trust anyone, but he hopes to have absolute control over the country in his own hands. This is something that any ruler wants to have.
There are still scattered snowflakes floating in the sky. In this weather where drops of water turn into ice, crystal clear ice particles are formed under the eaves of every house in Wancheng, but the council hall of the county government is as warm as spring. Even so, Lu Kang
He was not in a better mood, so he raised his glass reluctantly, and said politely to the officials in the hall: "Everyone, come and let us drink this wine together, and wish us a complete victory over the enemy."
After Lu Kang finished speaking, he took the lead in drinking the bitter wine in front of him. Chen Wen and others who were sitting side by side raised their glasses and the celebration banquet began.
It was already half a month after Lu Jun's visit to Chaohu. The battle in Anhui ended earlier than Lu Kang expected. The battle ended before spring arrived and before the ice and snow melted. Lu Kang won a complete victory. Why is it said that
What about a complete victory? The encircling army almost wiped out Jingfu's Panhu barbarians, but they escaped the protagonist, Jiangxia barbarian leader Jingfu. The heavy snow road closure also prevented Lu Kang's encirclement steps, causing Jingfu to be killed on March and Fourth.
Under the attack of tens of thousands of troops, he was defeated and fled. Although the barbarian army that returned to Jiangxia was less than 10% of the number that went out, Jingfu finally managed to save his life and wait for a comeback.
On the contrary, an inconspicuous captain of Yangzhou achieved unparalleled military exploits, and of course he was Cao Zhi. Cao Zhi's troops blocked the enemy army and Ruxuwu, killed countless enemies, and killed the enemy leaders Zheng Bao, the governor of Chaohu Lake, and Lin Junman
The leader Wu Jie chased the fleeing Banchen tribes and together with Chaohu forced Li Hu and his troops to surrender.
This is the battle report that Lu Kang received from Lu Jun from Chaohu half a month ago. He almost slammed the table at that time. Can Cao Zhi do this with only 2,000 troops? There must be something fishy here, Zheng Bao
Then so many ships came to pick up so many barbarian troops. Later it was proved that Zheng Bao had secretly built a raft outside Wancheng. It was impossible to build a raft capable of transporting 20,000 to 30,000 horses in two or three days. It was not a toy, but a raft.
Why did Li Hu accept the surrender in Chaohu and still hide there? It seems that he wanted to take Chaohu as his home. With Lu Kang's cunningness, he could smell the unusual smell in this matter at a glance.
What's even more annoying is that all the thousand naval troops he sent to Cao Zhi were killed, and not one of them came back alive. Lu Kang gritted his teeth and cursed secretly: "Cao Zhi! Cao Zhi, you are so ruthless, my people will die."
Guangguang, you made a lot of money and came back, but you only said to me, 'If the earthen jar is not broken outside the well, the general will inevitably be killed by the sword.'"
Lu Kang didn't care about his men. He gave them this errand just so that they would never come back. But Cao Zhi was a little too ruthless. His men must have pioneered the way, and he was behind.
It's a good thing, but I don't know how he did it?
Not only did Lu Kang have to worry about the post-disaster reconstruction work in his county after the war, but now he also had to guard against Cao Zhi, a white-eyed wolf. He really didn't expect that he would capsize in the gutter and make a miscalculation with a young boy to let this guy do it.
The boy got a big deal, and he already has a premonition that the future work has a long way to go!
