Han Xiang

Chapter 448

From living in Jiangdong to joining Liu Yao's command, Zhao Fan has been depressed all the time. He only has the ability to barely survive, but he has no energy to find his lost brother.

Later, although he was appreciated by Tai Shici, Tai Shici was soon left idle in Haihun, unable to find Zhao Fan's relatives.

Except for Tai Shici, no one in the whole army knew Zhao Zhuo's name. Just now Long Xiang not only said it seriously, but also briefly described how the two brothers were separated, so Zhao Fan couldn't help but not believe it.

Long Xiang wanted to poach Tai Shici, but the other party ignored him like a cold goddess. Now that he has such a good entry point, it is not so easy to tell the whole story.

Considering the disparity in status between Zhao Fan and Zhao Fan brothers, and they are working in the hostile camp, it is useless for Long Xiang to tell the truth now, the Zhao family brothers will not recognize each other for a short time.

Long Xiangyan asked someone from the caravan, and he knew very little about the situation, so he suggested that Zhao Fan go to Hefei to discuss it in detail.

As the deputy general of Taishici, Zhao Fan is like a girlfriend in the future world if Taishici is compared to a goddess. It is too difficult to directly pursue the goddess, but it is possible to get close to a girlfriend and save the country.

Long Xiang believes that as long as he gets in touch more, the quantity will definitely change into a qualitative change. At that time, only one opportunity will be needed to help Liu Bei take Tai Shici under his command.

After Tai Shici understood the situation, he told Zhao Fan earnestly: "Since there is news about my brother, it is understandable for Bo Chang to go to Hefei to find out, but Long Xiang is not simple, so you should pay more attention."

"The end will be saved."

Zhao Fan nodded slightly, and apologized with fists together: "I haven't seen the lord's boat come so far. It seems that the news I received that day was false. It's all my fault that I didn't verify it clearly. If the lord blames the general in the future, you can directly send me to the hospital." Just push it out."

"Bochang didn't see the lord at the time, and his starting point was also for my sake. After we met, we were as close as brothers. How could I do such a thing?"

Tai Shici shook his head slightly, and suddenly came up with a terrible idea: "Do you think all this is Long Xiang's arrangement? You deliberately let me accept his favor?"

"General Long? How is this possible?"

Zhao Fan waved his hand violently, and analyzed for Tai Shici: "First of all, Ziyi should know best whether Mei Cheng is willing to join Jiangdong, and he even burned Zhang Liao's rice fields for this;

Secondly, Sun Ben's soldiers came from the upper reaches by boat. At that time, the Ruxu Shuikou was blocked by our army, and no ships from the direction of Hefei could get out unless someone carried them to the Yangtze River by land;

In the end, the lord withdrew his troops from Jiangxia. If all of this was controlled by General Long, he would be more powerful than the immortal Yu Ji back then. "

"That's right." Tai Shici nodded slightly: "I'm just talking casually. After all, Long Yunqi is just a mortal, and he can't do ghosts and gods. But who would pretend to be Sun Ben to amuse me?"

"Anyway, he's a person with ulterior motives." Zhao Fan held his beard and shook his head lightly, and then asked, "Should I report this matter to Wu Jun? Hefei and Wu Jun are close in business, Ziyi has to cover up this matter as soon as possible. Maybe you can ask General Long for help?"

"Looking for Long Xiang's help to cover up? It's not worth it, let alone a defeat is a defeat."

Seeing Tai Shici shaking his head and refusing, Zhao Fan persuaded in a low voice: "I heard that Marquis Wu has a suspicious personality. If he knows that General Long is saving him, he may have bad thoughts."

"But the ugliness is out, and you can't hide it if you deliberately hide it. Even if we don't say it, Zhang Liao might still spread it."

When Tai Shici was sighing, he suddenly had an idea, so he told Zhao Fan: "Since Bochang is going to find his brother, he will bring some gifts to Hefei tomorrow, and thank Long Yunqi for his help, and then ask him to restrain the merchants from spreading rumors I don't think it's a glorious thing for Zhang Liao to suffer in Long Xiang's hands today."

Zhao Fan applauded and said: "That's right, the general's task is to guard Liyang, so you don't need to report every detail."

"As Bo Chang said, our Jiangdong Xinzhu is suspicious. It would be inappropriate if we don't report it completely, so I will take the initiative to write a letter to plead guilty."

"Sorry?"

"That's right, after all, I was plotting to use the army, and I have to let the lord know that someone is causing trouble inside."

"hiss"

Zhao Fan took a deep breath and reminded: "The general has acted like this, so don't you offend Sun Ben?"

"I didn't say that Sun Boyang falsely passed on the military order. My lord will investigate the perpetrator. If we don't tell the truth now, with Liyang's current strength, I'm afraid Zhang Liao won't be able to stop him. This person seems to hate me. I am worried that he will send troops to retaliate."

Tai Shici stroked his beard and told his worries. He hoped that Sun Quan could add troops to Liyang.

After Zhao Fan heard it, he thought it was right, and praised, "Ziyi is advancing by retreating. I think my lord can understand, and maybe he will send some soldiers."

"I hope." Tai Shici nodded in agreement.

In July, the rice is ripe, and all parts of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River are busy harvesting grain.

When Tai Shici's letter of guilt was sent to Wujun, Sun Quan had just arranged for Ling Cao's funeral, and appointed 14-year-old Ling Tong as the Sima of the other department to lead Ling Cao's remaining trilogy.

One Lu Meng, one Ling Tong.

They were all drawn in by Sun Quan in this way, and became Sun Quan's key training confidantes, and sent both of them to Chaisang and Zhou Yu's command to secretly monitor the commander-in-chief for himself.

After Sun Quan experienced Jiang Xia's disobedience of orders, he realized that it was too difficult to regain military power head-on, and he had to have real power in the army to have the right to speak.

In addition to secretly cultivating young generals like Lu Meng and Ling Tong, he also boldly used local generals like Kuaiji He Qi.

After reading Taishi Ci Huainan battle report, Sun Quan fell into deep thought again.

Who is doing this?
Sun Ben?Zhou Yu?Sun Yi?It all seems possible.

The Jiangdong nobles were also suspects. The Shanyue rebellion broke out at the same time in various places. If no one took the lead in connecting and inciting, it would never have erupted at a concentrated time.

Sun Quan is good at power and understands balance. From Sun Ce's tragic lessons, he found that the local gentry have always pursued power in order to ensure that the interests of the family are not infringed.

When Sun Ce pacified Jiangdong and divided his interests, he only paid attention to the interests of his courtiers who followed him to fight the country, and ignored the powerful force of the local gentry.

So, after reading Tai Shici's pleading letter, Sun Quan successively made appointments with several leaders of the great clan.

Sun Quan first summoned Lu Yi to the shogunate, and soon released him as the captain of Haichang Tuntian. Haichang County was divided into two counties, namely Quan County and Haiyan County. , which is equivalent to giving Lu Yi a fat job, so it goes without saying.

Secondly, Zhu Huan, the chief of Yuyao, was promoted to be the captain of the gangsters, and he was allowed to operate in Wujun and Kuaiji to integrate the soldiers who were left behind due to the chaos in the mountains. The powerful clan with money and food can only afford to support them after gathering the scattered soldiers, so more than 1 people gathered in one year.

Count Gu Yong, the Prime Minister of Kuaiji County, who was appointed by Sun Quan at the beginning of his succession.

Of the four great families of Gu, Lu, Zhu, and Zhang in Jiangdong, Sun Quan expressed the sincerity of the Sun family to all three.

As a result, the Jiangdong gentry reciprocated, and the rumors of militarism during the expedition to Jiangxia suddenly disappeared strangely, and Jiangdong gained immediate peace.

Just as Sun Quan's balancing technique became smoother and smoother, rumors suddenly spread from the residence of his wife Xu.
