It is precisely because of the people inside the navy that Zhang Tu, the left chief of Qi State, could clearly understand the current status of the Chu army's Hongze Lake navy, their thoughts and their fear of worrying about the future settlement of the Qi Wang Qiu. Because of this, Zhang
Tucai felt that he was confident of regaining these nearly 10,000 naval troops, increasing defensive power to Yangzhou, and adding nearly 10,000 naval soldiers to the Qi army.
If Li Huaiyuan had not noticed this navy, perhaps this navy with nearly 10,000 soldiers would have really become soldiers under the command of the Qi army. However, Li Huaiyuan had already noticed this, and the ending was naturally different.
After all, the Hongze Lake Navy is still on the territory of Xuzhou. The Zhao army did not have much hatred with the navy. The most important thing is that a large number of the soldiers of the Hongze Lake Navy were
They are fishermen living near the waters of Hongze Lake. For them, the new policy of the Zhao army is what they need most.
When Li Fanglin arrived at the Hongze Lake Navy, the Zhao army had successfully completed the round with Li Zhe, and the army advanced towards Pengcheng. At this moment, there were also many changes in the Hongze Lake Navy.
Among the Hongze Lake Navy, because the Zhao army officially attacked Xuzhou, many of the navy's navy proposed to surrender to Zhao. And some of the generals and officers proposed to surrender to Qi. Needless to say, this group of people
It is the part that was won over and bought by Zhang Tu, the left chief of Qi State. The last part is to maintain a neutral attitude. Most of them are fishermen near Hongze Lake. They think that the party who surrenders depends on the situation first and make decisions.
.The three parties have expressed their opinions on the way out of nearly 10,000 soldiers, and it is difficult to make the final decision.[
But in general, those who wait and see first have the upper hand. In addition to the fact that many of the navy soldiers are fishermen near Hongze Lake, it is also related to the last time they surrendered to Zhao and were discovered by the King of Chu. Especially now, the father and son of King Li Chi, Chu, are both related to the last time they surrendered to Zhao.
Beheaded by Li Zhe, and the Zhao army attacked Xuzhou. On the surface, Li Zhe was under the banner of Chu army surrendering to Zhao. In addition, those who were dissatisfied with Li Zhe's rebellion and "rebellion" to kill Li Chi and his son
The local leaders and officials, as well as those who have their own ambitions, also raised troops and fought everywhere, making the situation in Xuzhou particularly chaotic.
It can be said that from the overall perspective, the territory of Xuzhou was "chaotic" in a mess. And their navy was on the edge of Xuzhou and the existence of the Chu army outside the Chu army, so it is difficult for them to detail some of the situations in the Chu army.
Know. In addition, they have very little knowledge of the situation in Xuzhou. Therefore, they advocated watching first and seeing the navy's way out. Especially now that there are constant wars in Xuzhou, they have not paid attention to them yet, which makes them dare not do it easily.
Decisive. Who knows if they move will let the navy face the attack directly? Nearly 10,000 naval soldiers, once they are raided and broken into the naval camp, they will only become water bandits and be divided into pieces.
In addition to the wait-and-see faction, the second is to surrender the Zhao clan. Their view is that the Zhao army is the overlord of the north and the strongest princes in the world. It is a foregone conclusion that Xuzhou falls into the hands of Zhao. Even if there is no Zhao army yet
Come here, but it won't take long before the Zhao army will appear on the front line of Hongze Lake. That's it, it's better to surrender as soon as possible to let the Zhao army understand the current situation of the navy in Zhao State.
The weakest one is surrendering to Qi. After all, Qi is their hostile country. It has killed many water brothers and many families of navy soldiers. In addition, it can be seen from the surrender of the Qi army's navy in the past, that
Among the Qi army's navy, they pay great attention to the arrangement of talents and generations, and they are born in the place of origin. After all, the land of Yangzhou also has navy talents.
Many of them were from water bandits, and the other part was from surrendered troops. No matter what, even if the King of Qi shouted a slogan to pardon them, they were afraid they would not be reused in the Qi army.
Even those generals and schoolmen who came from surrendered troops were even more worried that they would be settled by the King of Qi when they returned. Even if the King of Qi could accept the navy soldiers, even if the King of Qi pardoned them on the surface, it would be easy to deal with them.
Things.Will anyone stand up for them then?
After Li Fanglin appeared in the Navy camp, he was soon welcomed by the Navy generals. These navy soldiers have been separated from the overall situation of Xuzhou for too long and are now unable to solve the current situation in Xuzhou. After all, they are navy soldiers.
It is not worthy of Li Chi, and it is not favored by the Li family of the Chu army. Therefore, what happened in Xuzhou is often the last one to know about the navy soldiers. The news came to the navy soldiers, which is equivalent to the basics of the entire Xuzhou.
Everyone knows it.
For the navy generals and schools, they urgently need to know the situation in Xuzhou and the current situation of the Chu army. Previously, the navy generals and schools learned that they had disappeared was that King Li Chi of Chu was killed by Li Zhe and other direct descendants of the Chu king. The Zhao army had already begun to officially
They had no idea about why this is the case, what is going on in Xuzhou now, what is the situation in the Chu army, who is the decision of the Chu army now, etc.
Who is Li Fanglin? These navy generals and generals naturally know that their elder brother Li Fangzong is the left chief of the Chu army. Even Li Fanglin is also the head of civil servants in the mansion. His status is much higher than that of the navy generals who no one likes.
Speaking of the current situation of the Chu army and the current situation in Xuzhou, the navy generals believed that Li Fanglin must be the clearest.
A chief general of the Navy, three deputy generals, and more than ten subordinate generals all welcomed Li Fanglin into the tent and asked Li Fanglin about the current situation in Xuzhou. For them, nothing is more important than understanding the current situation in Xuzhou.
Li Fanglin did not talk nonsense and directly killed Li Chi and his son by Li Zhe. Except for Li Zhe and others, all the others were killed, and the Chu army was divided into pieces. The Zhao army also obtained half of Xuzhou land, and Li was also in charge.
Zhe and others also informed the navy generals in detail about the surrender of the Zhao army.
For the navy generals, the situation in Xuzhou was simply unbelievable. However, thinking about the recent situation of the navy leader deliberately sending people to nearby areas to inquire, what Li Fanglin said should be true.
"In this way, the Chu army is gone?" Song Xiang, the chief general of the navy, also the only officer selected by Li Chi from his commander who knew how to fight the water, sent to the navy, frowned.
Li Fanglin said with a little touch: "Yes, the Chu army is gone, and the power of the princes is not possible for a long time. The general trend of the world, long-term divisions will lead to a reunion, long-term divisions will lead to a reunion, and the right thing is to do. Now, Zhao has been unified.
In the north, the suppression of the Turks gradually swept across the Western Regions. It can be said that the Zhao army occupied Xuzhou, not only because of the powerful state of Zhao, but also because of the general trend. Xuzhou can no longer withstand the continued war."
Deputy General Lin Mowen looked at Li Fanglin and asked in a deep voice: "So, under the leadership of Li Zhe, the Chu army has begun to surrender to Zhao? That is to say, the vast majority of the soldiers and officials of the Chu army have already
Determined to surrender Zhao? What about you, Lord Li? Have you surrendered Zhao too?"
Lin Mowen's words immediately made more than ten people look at Li Fanglin, each with a look of inquiring.
Li Fanglin was silent for a little, laughed, and said, "That's right, Fanglin surrendered to Zhao. Not only me, but my brother and my brother have surrendered to Zhao. In addition, the officials in Pengcheng and the guards around Pengcheng
The army has surrendered to Zhao. In other words, 70% of the army and officials in the Chu army have surrendered to Zhao. Although the remaining officials have not surrendered to Zhao, they dare not easily urge the banner of opposing Zhao army."
"Now, in Xuzhou, Zhao has dispatched 70,000 to 80,000 troops. The other princes dare not say anything. It is a changeable fact that Xuzhou belongs to Zhao. In addition, the king of Zhao understands that
After the situation in Xuzhou, an edict was also issued to Xuzhou civil affairs. In addition to the Zhao policy that everyone knows, Xuzhou was exempted from three years of taxes, allocated farmland and livestock, and allowed Chu army soldiers to go home to farm, serve their parents, and take care of them.
Wife and children. Generals, in this case, what reason do you think Fanglin has to fight against Zhao Jun?"
Li Fanglin's words really surprised more than ten people and were a little dazed. Especially several generals from the water bandits, who were all fishermen in the past, so naturally hoped that the people of Xuzhou would live a better life. Now I heard about Zhao's new policy in Xuzhou,
They were naturally overjoyed. If it weren't for the reason that they could not make decisions here, I was afraid that they would have asked Li Fanglin for details of Zhao's policy at this moment and directly asked the navy to surrender to the Zhao army.
However, Li Fanglin did not end there, but continued: "My generals, speaking of it, you are all from my Chu army. These nearly ten thousand water brothers are also organized by our Chu army. Now, the flag of the Chu army has fallen
To Zhao State, what do you think of this?"[
Li Fanglin's words were very simple, but his meaning was quite good. He asked the navy directly whether they were willing to surrender to Zhao.
"This..." The main general Song Xiang was slightly stunned. Li Fanglin's single attack caught him off guard. In addition, the navy had different opinions.
Lin Mowen looked at Li Fanglin and said anxiously: "I wonder if Lord Li came here this time, was his own intention, Chu Jun's intention, or Zhao Jun's intention?"
"Yes! General Lin's words are what I mean!" After hearing Lin Mowen's question, Song Xiang was shocked and said hurriedly. At the same time, he looked directly at Li Fanglin like Lin Mowen and others.
I hope to get the answer they want from Li Fanglin.
"Haha... General Lin is really cautious. No wonder he always asked the navy to remain neutral, watch the situation in Xuzhou, and make decisions." After hearing Lin Mowen's rebellious question, Li Fang and Lin's heart moved, and Lin Mowen's situation appeared in his mind.
Come on. Now in the three navy factions, Lin Mowen is the advocate of maintaining neutrality. He is calm and careful in doing things.
Li Fanglin's three origins can also bring three meanings. He deliberately found it, which means that the Li brothers wanted to use the Navy as their foundation in Zhao State. In this way, after the Navy was incorporated into Zhao State,
The three brothers of Li naturally gained the greatest benefits, and they were the only one pawn.
The meaning of the Chu army is naturally the meaning of Li Zhe and Li Fangzong and others. In this way, even if they follow the military orders of Li Zhe and others, in other words, the navy is not in the eyes of Zhao army.
At least, it has not been valued by Zhao Jun yet.
But following the Zhao army, the meaning of natural difference is different. The navy generals have already tasted the taste of being ignored and idle. They naturally hope that they can be valued in front of their new owners.
Speaking of which, the generals of the Navy were also uneasy. There were not many of them in nearly 10,000 naval divisions. They were all insignificant parts in both the Qi army and the Zhao army. However, among the Navy, this was far beyond the navy's quota.
Because these were brought from the Yangzhou Navy Camp and the Shipyard after the Qi army surrendered to the Chu army. In addition, within a few dozen miles around the Navy Camp, except
The fishermen around lived here, and thousands or even nearly ten thousand boatmen lived here. In the past, the Chu army retreated, and in order not to allow the Qi army to have a strong naval army, Li Chi gave all the boatmen from the four northern prefectures of Yangzhou.
Migrated here.
Li Fanglin naturally knew what these people were worried about and hoped for. So he said with a smile, "I came here, and naturally came to the military order of General Li Huaiyuan, the commander of Zhao army. Our Zhao State is Chonghai, so all the generals have been in Zhao for a long time.
Under the eyes of the country, the Chu army is in chaos now, and General Li Huaiyuan naturally hopes that you can change your flags and flags and surrender to our Da Zhao."
"In addition, the navy has never been valued by Li Chi, so the treatment of the water master is still very poor. All the generals have already surrendered to our Da Zhao day by day. The treatment of the soldiers will be based on the treatment of our Da Zhao Navy one day earlier.
Supply. Many of the soldiers in the navy are poor people, and they also need to support their families. All the generals make decisions."
Deputy General Zhang Haixiao smiled at the other generals and said, "Brothers, Lord Li has said so clearly, why are we hesitating? The situation in Xuzhou is now clear, and it is also the time for us to make a decision. Brothers, now
In front of us, we are all surrendering to Zhao and Qi."
"Although Qi is powerful, compared with Zhao's army, what is Qi's worth? What's important is that we are still under the jurisdiction of Xuzhou, and our soldiers' families are also in the boundary of Xuzhou. Do we surrender to Qi and don't even want this family.
?Even if the family members are not allowed, what about the thousands of shipwrecks? Without them, do you think the King of Qi would value the Chu army navy that made this happen? The King of Qi cared about those shipwrecks, not us."
Deputy General Zhang Hai was born in the Qi army naval army. Because the Chu army invaded Yangzhou in the past, he cut off the navy's retreat and surrendered to the Chu army. Among the navy, these surrendered soldiers of the Qi army were extremely reluctant to return.
Arrived among the Qi army.
When it comes to the current situation of his family and the navy, everyone else is speechless. Yes, one thing is crucial, that is, the place where the navy is located is in Xuzhou.
It is natural to rebel against the enemy. However, the families of the navy soldiers left.
In addition, the ship craftsmen in several counties around the Navy camp also left. In this way, as Zhang Hai said, even if they defected to the jurisdiction of the Qi army, if they did not have these ship craftsmen, they would not be Qi.
The king cared too much. Speaking of the naval army, no one has more soldiers than the Qi army and is easier to recruit. After all, the Qi army is located in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many people who are good at water and water. But the shipmakers can build ships and have war
Only by ships can we form inland river naval forces and outshore navies.
Deputy General Wu Daoze frowned and said, "I still think it's better for us to surrender to Qi. After all, after the Zhao army occupied Xuzhou, the Qi army faced threats. In this way, the Qi army urgently needed the navy for its own use. Brothers, surrender to Qi.
It will inevitably be valued by the King of Qi. Because the Qi army needs us."
"Where are the soldiers' families and the boatmen?"
"The soldiers' families can carry as much as they can. As for the boat craftsmen, they can only abandon them now. Don't worry, the Qi army needs us now, so naturally they will not make things difficult for us because of these boat craftsmen and past grudges."
Wu Dao was born as a water bandit. For him, he would follow the other party if he gave him great benefits.
"Haha..." Li Fanglin laughed, stared at Wu Dao, and said coldly: "Surrender to Qi? Will the Qi army reuse you? Generals, don't forget that Qi army is no match for our Da Zhao. Secondly, talk about the water division.
, Is there anyone more powerful than my Da Zhao? Who else can besides me, except me, Da Zhao? With these ship craftsmen, I Da Zhao will soon be able to pull up a large number of warships, form a navy, and then sweep you
wait."
"In addition, my Great Zhao has many shipwrecks in the Qingming East. As long as I Great Zhao needs it, I can immediately form my Great Zhao Navy in Hongze Lake. Do you think you can compete with me Great Zhao?"[
"There are also generals..." Li Fanglin stared at Wu Dao and said, "As long as I, Da Zhao, signed a peace agreement with the Qi army, can let the King of Qi return you rebel generals or your heads.
The King of Qi may need you, but what he needs is nearly 10,000 naval soldiers and ship craftsmen, not all generals. There are many naval generals under the King of Qi."
"You..." Wu Dao's face turned pale and he said tremblingly, "You...you dare...you dare threaten..."
Li Fanglin said coldly: "General Wu, you are a water bandit. If the Chu army had not appreciated you, how could you have such a status? Before the Chu army surrendered to Zhao, you dared to collude with the Qi army."
Without waiting for Wu Dao to speak, Li Fanglin said coldly again: "Come on, bring the things up."
With Li Fanglin's cold shout, someone came in outside the tent. This person was no one else, but Wu Dao's personal army captain. At this moment, he walked in with a wooden box in his hand and a pale face.
Li Fanglin looked at Wu Dao and said coldly: "I discovered that a few days ago that the Qi army's detailed works were in the Navy camp, so I asked General Song to take the detailed works and kill his head.
, and captured two followers. General Wu, do you know what they are here to do? How did they get involved in my navy?"
"You...you..." Wu Dao's face was pale.
The navy commander Song Xiang said coldly: "General Wu, I didn't expect that you had colluded with the Qi army earlier and treated nearly ten thousand brothers and things."
