Luoyang, because of its trade with the Han army and Jingzhou, has now become a gathering place for the main generals and officials of the Zhao army. Please remember the URL of this website:...The important military and political affairs of the southern places are all waiting for Zhao Xun and others here.
deal with.
"This time we transported the goods of more than thirty merchant ships for the Jieyi Army, but then the Qi Army and Navy blocked the eastern waters of Yangzhou and Jiangzhou. As we expected, our merchant ships can no longer approach the Jieyi Army and the
The coastal areas occupied by other rebels." Liu Wenqi spoke in a deep voice about his contact with the Yangzhou rebels.
"However, our merchant ships can still enter the ports occupied by the Qi Army. If we want to continue to contact the Jieyi Army, we can only let the sea ships first enter the land occupied by the Qi Army at the mouth of the Yangtze River, and then enter the territory under the jurisdiction of the Jieyi Army through the inland
.However, it is difficult to transport supplies."
"Even if we want to enter the territory occupied by the Jieyi Army and other areas that have been occupied, it is not an easy task. The Qi Army has now blocked the border areas of these rebels, regardless of whether they are people coming out of the rebel areas or want to
Everyone who enters must be strictly inspected. In addition, the Qi army inspects northern merchants very strictly, presumably because of our connection with the Jieyi army."
Zhao Xun said in a deep voice: "We have transported a lot of supplies for them this time. Even if they cannot meet all their needs, it is not far behind. In addition, we have sent a lot of craftsmen, and they should be self-sufficient in the future.
Otherwise, even if they withstand the Qi army's counterattack, the Jieyi army will always be restricted. We cannot provide them with any supplies at any time and at any time."
"The purpose of dispatching a town army to Xuzhou this time is to contain the defenders on the northern line of Yangzhou for the Jieyi Army. This is all we can do now. Think about it, with the current ability of the Jieyi Army, it will not be so fast
They were destroyed by the Qi army."
Yang Wangqing said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, according to the news from Xuzhou, the dispatch of the ninth town to Xuzhou has also suddenly increased our logistical pressure. In addition to bearing the needs of disaster relief and local engineering construction,
Having to bear the logistics of another town to suppress the army has already pushed Xuzhou's burden to the limit. Therefore, the ninth town is stationed in Xuzhou and cannot be dispatched and can only defend."
Zhao Xun nodded and said: "I thought this matter was too simple, and it indeed increased Xuzhou's burden a lot. However, I never considered letting Xuzhou's defenders attack south. The mission of the ninth town is to garrison the place.
With just 20,000 more defenders, the Qi army on the opposite side will have to leave tens of thousands of Qi troops on the Huaihe River line and dare not move lightly. As for going south, we will not consider it in the short term."
"By the way, how is the operation to move Luo's army south? It's not enough for us to move south. It is in our interests to let Luo's army also start to move."
Yang Wangqing said in a deep voice: "After my hints and the bribery of some officials and generals of the Luo Army, they also proposed to the King of Luoyang to go south and take the opportunity to recover the Jiangxia Mansion occupied by the Qi Army in the south of Jingzhou and the Wuling Mansion occupied by the Shu Army.
.
At the beginning, the King of Luoyang was really unwilling to agree to this matter. In his opinion, if he made such a move, the southern princes alliance would be completely torn apart, and they would hate each other and cease to exist. In addition, the King of Luoyang was also worried that we would go south."
"However, as we lowered the price of weapons and transferred the garrison of Dongyongzhou to Xuzhou, the King of Luoyang gradually relaxed. As we supported the Han army and the Shu army, the fight was evenly matched, and the Qi army was in full swing.
After the chaos broke out in the rear, the King of Luoyang, under the advice of some of his generals, became interested in recovering the counties in southern Jingzhou."
"Now, the Luo Army has begun to move to the south, approaching Jiangxia Prefecture in the southeast and Wuling Prefecture in the south. Come to think of it, both Qi King Murong Cheng and Shu King Situ Che hate the Luo Army right now."
Zhao Xun nodded and said: "Very good! Our relationship with Jingzhou must remain like this. However, we can no longer sell armor and equipment to the Luo Army. We sell armor and equipment to the Luo Army. First, because the Luo Army is too weak.
, cannot resist the Qi army's ambitions for Jingzhou. While we cannot capture Jingzhou immediately, we would rather it be occupied by the Luo army alone.
It cannot be annexed by Murong Cheng's Qi army. It is easier to solve the problem if there are many princes than big princes. Secondly, in order to eliminate the Luo army's hostility towards us, we need them to turn their attention to the south, consider themselves, and then fight with the Qi army.
Fall out with the Shu army and consider the interests of the Luo army, rather than the interests of the southern princes as a whole."
"Now the Luo army can fight against the Qi army, and we can also take this opportunity to compete with the Shu army for Wuling Mansion. But we cannot really make the Luo army too powerful, otherwise we will add enemies to ourselves."
Yang Wangqing frowned and said: "Luo Jun has been asking us to increase the types of weapons trade and increase the amount. If we refuse like this, will it make them doubt what we think of Jingzhou and their Luo Jun? After all, Luo Jun
The army has just transferred its army to the south."
Because the land of Hanzhong and the land to the north of Yizhou have no direct relationship with the Zhao army, the military affairs in the southeast of Liangzhou were put down. Zhang Yuanjing, who had just arrived here, smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, these weapons and equipment were originally from the Luo army and the Han army."
Hoarded in the land of Yongzhou and captured from the soldiers of the Han and Luo armies
The quantity is limited, and Luo Jun also knows it. We can tell the King of Luoyang directly that there are not many weapons and armor equipment left in our hoard, and the trade in armor and equipment cannot continue. However, other trade can continue as usual. After all,
Through trade, Jingzhou has also gained considerable benefits."
"What I am worried about is that without our support, it is still a question whether the Han army can resist the Shu army. Now the Han army's armor and equipment are almost given away for free. Even food, we also gave a lot. Could it be that
Next, we still need to provide the Han army with the standard weapons of our Zhao army?"
Situ Liang smiled and said: "Brother Zhang has been in the southeast of Liangzhou and was in charge of the Liangzhou army going south to the north of Yizhou and restraining the Shu army from going north to Yongzhou for reinforcements, so he doesn't know the situation in Hanzhong. This Hanzhong king is very cunning.
Since the Han army lacked armor and equipment, it was naturally impossible. To say that it was powerless
It is even more impossible to fight against the Shu army. He asked us for food because he saw that it was cheap, and we also need the Han army and the Shu army to continue fighting, so we will provide food for the Han army and sell armor and equipment at reduced prices.
This does not mean that the Han army is inferior to the Shu army. At the very least, in the land of Hanzhong, the Han army is not weak."
"We have provided so many supplies to the Han army just to make sure that there is no possibility of retreat between the Han army and the Shu army. Now, for more than half a month, the fierce battle between the Han army and the Shu army cannot but be fierce.
.The Han army and the Shu army surrounded the Hanzhong City during this period alone.
After dozens of battles, both sides lost more than 30,000 soldiers each. Including the initial losses, the number of soldiers on both sides was no less than 50,000. Although I dare not say that they were all fighting soldiers, for the King of Shu and the King of Hanzhong, in the
The loss in Hanzhong has already traumatized both of them."
"Now, even if we don't provide supplies to the Han army, the Han army will still have to fight with the Shu army, unless the Han army is willing to give up most of Hanzhong that is still in its hands, and the Han army is willing to forget the previous hardships and the previous sacrifices of the Han army's soldiers.
effort."
Zhang Yuanjing smiled and said: "Then, my arrangements in the southwest of Liangzhou are to support the Han army in the future?"
Situ Liang smiled and said: "Yes, in order to prevent the Han army from being really defeated or suddenly defeated, we need to take immediate response actions on the front line of Yinping Prefecture in the north of Yizhou. Here, we have to contain some of the Shu army. In addition, we need to take action at any time.
, If the Han army is unable to resist the Shu army in the end, then the land in Hanzhong will be directly owned by us."
Zhao Xun said in a deep voice: "The situation in southern Yongzhou, Hanzhong, and Jingzhou is like this for the time being. Let's let the Han army and the Luo army be hostile to the Shu army and the Qi army. We are now focusing on internal construction. As long as our foundation is stable,
These two places in the south can be taken at any time."
"Now that trade has begun between Yongzhou and Jingzhou, we must not only obtain the items we need through these merchants, but also sell our items to the people of Jingzhou in order to gain profits. In addition, we must also slowly learn about the situation in our Zhao country.
Through Jingzhou merchants and our merchants, it is passed on to Jingzhou. At the very least, when the war breaks out in the future, the people of Jingzhou will not put up a desperate resistance. After all, we here treat the people better than the Luo army."
Situ Liang said: "Your Majesty, Xuzhou Governor Li Fangzong reported yesterday that rumors have begun to spread in Xuzhou, which is detrimental to Xuzhou. Many local big families are involved, and I would like to ask your Majesty how to deal with it."
"Local big families? Those who can embarrass Li Fangzong should naturally be those powerful families who took the initiative to surrender. Our policies and systems in Xuzhou have caused a lot of losses to the interests of these powerful families. It is normal for them to want to make trouble. In this way,
The Li family members who surrendered Li Han and others
They will be arranged to Xuzhou and let them deal with these powerful families. No one is more familiar with the powerful families in Xuzhou than them. Tell Li Han and others that since these powerful families feel that Xuzhou is not suitable for them to live, there is no need to continue
Leave them alone." Zhao Xun said quietly.
Situ Liang naturally understood what King Zhao meant. Li Han and others used the heads of the former Chu King Li Chi and the officials of the Chu King's line to make meritorious deeds. None of the powerful families in Xuzhou now have anything to do with the Chu army.
? Now, dealing with these people can also be considered as an opportunity for Li Han and others. Presumably, in order to show themselves in front of King Zhao, Li Han and others are willing to clean up these powerful powerful people who were dissatisfied with their betrayal of King Chu.
So Situ Liang said in a deep voice: "I understand that I will send an order to Youzhou later and ask the Privy Council to transfer these people to Xuzhou to serve as the commander-in-chief of Xuzhou's army, cooperate with the governor of Xuzhou, and be responsible for the stability of Xuzhou."
"In addition, according to the Yangzhou Shadow Guards' report, the Qi Army, in addition to blocking Yangzhou and the eastern part of Jiangzhou, has also begun to create unfavorable rumors about the rebels in places close to these rebels, so that the prefectures and counties close to the rebels begin to regard the rebels as
Bandits. Especially this time the Qi army and navy
After the attack, which had already suffered a huge setback, the prefectures and counties in various places that were preparing to respond began to cease their activities and did not dare to make any more movements. Even some rebels sent to win over the rogues and bandits who were preparing to respond did not dare to fight with them at this moment.
There is some contact with the people from the Rebel Army."
"Should we let the secret guards and merchants in Yangzhou and Jiangzhou say some words that are beneficial to these rebels, and also wash away the unfavorable reputation of these rebels?"
Zhao Xun said in a deep voice: "Murong Cheng has hit the disadvantages of these rebels. The rebels, although we now call them rebels, and although the rebels themselves also say that they are rebels, they still cannot get rid of the fact that they are rebels.
The rebels who caused the incident were enemies of the government and rebels. In terms of propaganda, they were always at a disadvantage and unable to confront the government, which represented orthodoxy."
Yang Wangqing sighed: "This is why the princes must have a name before they start an uprising and take action. A name means a word. Before they obtain a certain status, in the eyes of the people, they are always gangsters and rebels. Even the company's army
They can’t even be called, they can only be called bandits, thieves and bandits!”
Zhao Xun shook his head and said: "Forget it, our people can't act casually, otherwise, it will be us who will be disadvantaged in the end. This Qi army has begun to suspect that we have contact with the Jieyi Army, and I am afraid that they have already made preparations for close surveillance everywhere.
, It’s okay if our people don’t move. If we move, the iron nails will fall into the hands of the Qi army. Don’t forget, the Qi army also has a secret guard system. It is not easy to place people on the Qi army’s territory.”
"Besides, the Jieyi Army is no longer weak. It needs to solve the current problems on its own and cannot rely on us for everything. After all, we are far away from the south and beyond our reach, so we cannot deal with them in time. If one of them is not good, he will do bad things with good intentions.
"
…………
As Situ Liang said, although the current situation of the Jiedi Army is not bad, it is not very good. At the very least, some cities and towns that originally prepared to respond to the Jiedi Army now dare not come forward. In some places, they even directly
The contact person sent by the Jieyi Army was captured and handed over to the government.
Unknowingly, the reputation of the rebel army was not as good as before, and it was already bad among the people everywhere. In addition to the publicity of the Qi military officer's office, more of it was due to the Qi army's counterattack through the navy, General Ji and Fu Chun.
The two rebel armies on the front line were severely defeated, and the rebel army was divided into northern and southern parts.
These two rebel armies are not ordinary rebels, but two of the ten rebel armies. Since then, the Jie Rebel Army has merged with the other two armies, and other rebel armies have also begun to unite to form the new ten rebel armies. Now
, the two central and southern armies were defeated by the Qi army overnight. Moreover, only the first part of the navy, the Qi army garrison and a very small number of soldiers were dispatched.
Those who can respond to the rebellion, in addition to some large groups of bandits, bandits and bandits active in the local area, are some local powerful people. This natural disaster has greatly increased the strength of these people. They want to respond to the rebel army, and their purpose
It goes without saying that apart from his own interests, he has no real righteousness, and he will not go against the government for the sake of the refugees.
Originally, after the merger of the Jieyi Army, the rebel army was victorious and became stronger and stronger. Some local tycoons, bandits and bandits gathered people to start a rebellion. They planned to occupy one side and live out the addiction of one side's heroes.
However, the rebel army was suddenly defeated. Those who originally had other ideas naturally had to reconsider, consider the pros and cons, and make a new choice whether to continue the action.
Therefore, with the mobilization of the Qi army, nearby counties and regions began to cooperate with the government and began to smear these rebels. Some people who were connected with various rebels, in order to clear their suspicions, even
They directly took the contacts sent by the rebels and handed them over to the government. However, the bandits and bandits who were originally preparing to take action stopped and hid in the mountains again, not daring to show up.
"The situation is very bad. These damn bastards, they said respectfully before that they would respond to us and put us first. In the blink of an eye, they sold us. These powerful landlords are not good things!"
Hu Niu, the deputy general of the rebel army, said with an annoyed look.
Hu Niu was originally the leader of the rebel army south of Jiang Ming's army. He was later recruited by the captain sent by Zhao Jun and merged with Jiang Ming's army to become the new Jie Yi army. He Qi also became one of the deputy generals of the Jie Yi army.
Gu Shan smiled and said: "Old Hu, you can't say that. In the areas under the jurisdiction of our rebel army, there are many wealthy gentry on our side. As for the unwillingness of those landowners to respond, it is also because the rebel army suddenly grew in size.
They were defeated, and the Qi army was gradually approaching, forcing them to reconsider. After all, this is a matter of life and death for their entire family."
"Besides, there are quite a few powerful landlords who have contacted us, but those who betrayed us are only a few of them. When we take action in the future, these people who betrayed us will never look good to them. I don't want to.
Correspondingly, this is excusable. However, these people will never let our brothers live out their lives for themselves." As he spoke, Gu Shan's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Jiang Ming, the leader of the Jieyi Army, said solemnly: "Now our Jieyi Army has a bad reputation in other places. These powerful landowners are unwilling to cooperate. In addition, the people everywhere are also hostile to us, and the Qi army is gradually approaching. At the moment, we
What should we do?”
Gu Shan said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, general. I have discussed it with the lieutenants. Since the area close to our jurisdiction is unwilling to take the initiative, we will take the initiative. We will go west from Jiaxing County and north from Yuhang.
Take Wu County and occupy the area around Tai Lake."
"Taihu Lake?" Jiang Ming said thoughtfully, "By taking over Taihu Lake, we can go directly to Wuxing and Changxing areas through ships. In this way, we can break through the blockade of the Qi army and let other areas know about the situation of our Jieyi army. By occupying Taihu Lake
, for us, it can be regarded as a retreat."
Gu Shan said in a deep voice: "Yes, the land of Taihu Lake is three to four hundred miles in length and breadth. If we occupy this place, we will not be blocked by the Qi army in the east of Yangzhou. And, the important thing is, because this is inside Yangzhou, so,
There is no organized naval force here. There are only patrol boats from some local yamen, which will not have much impact on us. As long as we quickly capture Wu County and seize the fishing boats, we can move across the Taihu Lake and cross the west side of the Taihu Lake.
Enter other prefectures and counties.”
