Han Xiang

Chapter 463

Looking at Zhuge Liang's curious expression, Liu Bei added in a low voice: "Gan Xingba was originally under Huang Yuanyang's command, but now he abandons Jiang Xia to vote for me, fearing that he will be criticized by Cai Kuai and others."

"That's it?"

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly, and said with a loud smile, "My lord is so cautious, you forgot that General Gan is here to vote for the eldest son? So what does it have to do with you?"

"It's true." Liu Bei swallowed.

Zhuge Liang then added: "Before we decided on Guanzhong, we had the tree of Dagongzi to shelter us from the wind and rain, so we could do a lot of things with confidence. Liu Jingzhou would never have any grudges, but now that the four counties in East Handong have been decided, Hanzhong will be relocated again." The administrative office moved to Xicheng, and the follow-up support from Xiangyang is estimated to be gone, and the recall of Wenpin is a clear proof."

Liu Bei echoed: "As the military adviser said, we can only rely on ourselves in the back, Yunchang's side is not easy to move, except for the [-] Huainan soldiers brought by Yide from Hefei, the rest need to be in Xicheng, Shangyongxin Recruitment means that we don’t know how many troops to take down Chang’an.”

"The soldiers are good, but not many. Yide's [-] elite soldiers are better than Jingzhou's [-] to [-]." After Zhuge Liang praised Zhang Fei, he smiled slightly: "The people of the four counties in the east of Han Dynasty are enough. As much courage as the lord, there are as many as Liang." Strategy."

Liu Bei nodded straight: "Alright, starting from scratch, Bei lacks everything except courage.

"Well, what should be there will be there in the future. Now that General Gan is coming to vote halfway, I think Tai Shici will join soon." Zhuge Liang said with a mysterious smile.

Liu Bei asked curiously, "Why did the military commander say that?"

Zhuge Liang replied: "Didn't you find out that Long Yunqi is a lucky general? He helped recruit Yide's three thousand Huainan soldiers, and Liu Ziyang was also recommended to the lord by his tricks. It can be said that we can easily win Handong, General Long should take more than half of the credit, now he has taken a fancy to Tai Shici, saying that he has a great chance of surrendering."

"Makes sense."

Liu Bei nodded slightly. He remembered Zhuge Liang's plan to let Zhuge Jin secretly help him, so he couldn't help telling him: "A few years ago, Sun Ce massacred Jiangdong, and Sun Quan is at the age of youthful blood. Don't get yourself into trouble"

"My lord, don't worry about my brother. Liang will not let him directly alienate Tai Shi Ziyi, nor will he let him betray Jiang Dong. There will be no problem with his personal safety, and there is a big difference between Sun Quan and Sun Ce. This person is not good at using soldiers but He is good at tactics, so he should not kill lightly." Zhuge Liang replied solemnly.

Liu Bei frowned after hearing this, and asked with a little worry: "Since Sun Quan is good at stratagem, I don't know what the military adviser will do."

Zhuge Liang wiped the white feather fan, and said solemnly: "Sun Ce himself started his career as a martial artist, but his choice before his death was contrary to his own. , it should be because he realized that he killed too much, and if he chose an heir similar to himself, the Sun family's quickly gained foundation would be quickly lost, so he chose Sun Quan, who is calm and good at internal affairs, against all opinions;

The three years since Sun Quan succeeded to the throne have not been peaceful. He originally controlled part of the military power through Wu Jing and Xu Kun, but after two battles in Huainan and Yuzhang, he completely lost control of the Jiangdong army, so he shifted his energy to internal affairs On the one hand, use the new Jianghuai people such as Jiaxiong and Buzhi to develop internal affairs;

Just as the lord said, Sun Quan is full of blood and power, so how can he be willing to leave the military power behind him for a long time?He boldly used Lu Meng, Ling Tong, He Qi and other newcomers in order to cultivate a force loyal to himself and replace Zhou Yu, Cheng Pu, Sun Ben, Tai Shici and other generals stationed abroad in the future. "

"What is the military division?" Liu Bei hesitated to speak.

Zhuge Liang observed that there was no one around, and then explained in a low voice: "Although Tai Shici leads the army alone, he is weaker than Zhou Yu and Sun Ben. I plan to discuss with my brother the danger of losing military power. As for whether he will tell Sun Quan or not, it is unknown , but as long as Sun Quan takes corresponding countermeasures, Tai Shici should be sad to death."

Liu Bei murmured to himself: "From what the military adviser said just now, it seems that there is a tendency to ignite the fire for Zhou Yu and Sun Ben. However, Zhou Lang is the governor of Jiangdong, and Sun Ben is the patriarch of the Sun family. These two have high status in Jiangdong. Sun Quan should It won't touch Jiangdong at all."

"Looking at Sun Quan's actions in the past few years, he is not a fatuous person who is manipulated. If he dare not touch the root, he must start from the side branches. Tai Shici and Sun's friendship is not deep, isn't it just fulfilling Long Yunqi's intention?"

After listening to Zhuge Liang's explanation, Liu Bei suddenly became enlightened, and nodded and added: "Then I have to remind Yun Qi to make him prepare."

"My lord, don't worry. Since General Long has this plan, he must have made sufficient preparations. Don't forget that Lu Zijing is also here. He knows to mention it from the sidelines. You should focus on Guanzhong and return to the Xicheng garrison in a few days. Liang wrote a letter to his family and sent it to Jiangdong."

"Alright."

Zhuge Liang planned to use Zhuge Jin's mouth to intensify the conflict between Sun Quan and the generals with words. He didn't know that the conflict had already intensified.

Not long after Sun Quan and Zhou Yu withdrew their troops from Jiangxia, Huang Zu found out the reason for Jiangdong's withdrawal, and soon sent someone to Xiangyang to ask Liu Biao for help.

Huang Zu planned to take advantage of the chaos and lead his troops to invade Jiangdong again. Even if he could not face the enemy directly, he could not stop the harassment.

He believes that it is necessary to keep fighting and not give Jiangdong a chance to breathe and develop, otherwise Jiangxia will be in danger when the opponent makes a comeback.

At this time, Jiangxia had soldiers but no boats, and Xiangyang needed money and food support to repair the damaged city walls of Shaxian.

Although Huang Zu's strategic thinking was correct, it was difficult for Liu Biao's clever wife to cook without rice. Without the support of Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and other tycoons, they could not allocate money and food for warships, not to mention that Xiangyang had already supported a warship.

Liu Biao did not directly veto Huang Zu, but replied that he needed time to raise money and food, which would allow Liu Pan to continue to harass Jianchang and other places, and promised to let his navy rush to help the battle when Wenpin returned from the expedition.

Although Liu Biao was proficient in procrastination, when Liu Qi and Liu Bei pacified Handong and Wenpin led his troops back to Xiangyang, because of Kuai Yue's face-to-face reminder and Cai's blowing the pillow wind on his bed, Liu Biao did not increase the allocation in the end. Qian Liang, and even Wenpin stayed in Xiangyang as a precaution.

In the end, Xiangyang's support for Huang Zu was only controlled by Liu Pan militarily.

Huang Zu waited in Jiangxia for several months, but neither Wenpin's navy came to support him, nor did he get money and food for warships, so he could only send soldiers and civilians to repair and strengthen Shaxian City, and lost the opportunity to go to Jiangdong to take advantage of the fire and loot. .

Because Liu Pan once again violated the border and harassed, Cheng Pu, who was going to pacify Poyang Shanyue, couldn't cope with it, so Zhou Yu led the main force of Chaisang to the Poyang area to suppress the rebellion.

Zhou Yu spent half a year not only pacifying Shanyue near Poyang, but also destroying Ma and Baoertuns at the junction of Yuzhang and Danyang.

Ma and Bao Ertun gathered tens of thousands of people who refused to accept Wang Hua. A few years ago, Sun Ce and Tai Shici failed in their conquest.

This time Zhou Yu not only became the leader of the commander-in-chief of Qu, but also completely broke through the city and captured the people, so that Ertun was completely brought under Jiangdong's jurisdiction.

After half a year of suppressing the chaos and suppressing the bandits, Zhou Yu reorganized and reorganized more than [-] soldiers, captured tens of thousands of Han people and Shanyue people, and his strength greatly increased.
