Chapter 350 The Quietly Breeding Ambition

The morning sun poured down from the sky.

In Yuzhang prefect's mansion, Peng Hu stretched himself.

Although the Yuzhang Port not far away is already screaming and killing, but living a life of fighting on the water for a long time has long been used to it.

Therefore, seize the time to let the body be trimmed and wait for the next changes.

Footsteps sounded from behind, and one didn't need to guess too much to know who was coming.

"The four of them slept peacefully?"

"Everything is safe, as if at home"

"Did there be any news from Brother Qing?"

"No definite news yet"

The man in scribe's attire stood behind him and replied slowly.

Peng Hu frowned involuntarily, with a vaguely ominous look on his face.

"There was no news last night?"

"no"

The man replied to Peng Hu.

At this moment, a water thief hurried in.

"Report..."

"Yuzhang Port Urgent Report"

The water thief shouted at the top of his voice.

Then he handed the bamboo slip in his hand to Peng Hu respectfully.

Peng Hu's heart sank involuntarily, he quickly grabbed the bamboo slip in his hand, and then opened it.

His eyes wandered over it, and he couldn't help but gasped.

"My lord, what happened?"

"Yuzhang Port is in danger"

Peng Hu did not explain in detail, but let out a soft sigh.

Handing the bamboo slips in his hand to the scribe, his brows frowned a little.

The scribe quickly read the news on the bamboo slips, and immediately felt troublesome.

"Yuzhang Port fought fiercely all night?"

"In the early morning, a large number of reinforcements suddenly appeared from the troops of the enemy general Gan Ning"

"This……"

Scribe couldn't help but gasped.

Quickly thinking about the way to break the situation in his mind, he continued to speak after a while.

"Although the handsome Zhang Jie is about to come to help, the mountain road is rugged and it is not easy to gather troops. It will take at least three days."

"Now that Wan County is attacking Yuzhang Port, it is obvious that it cannot last so long. The best plan for the present is to immediately send troops from the city to help."

"It's just that there are only three thousand troops in the city. Once troops are sent to help, the rear will be empty. Moreover, the four surnames in the city have not surrendered, and there may be many hidden dangers left behind."

The scribe kept analyzing.

A trace of anger appeared in Peng Hu's eyes.

"According to the military division, should we give up Yuzhang Port and retreat to the city?"

"This is absolutely impossible"

The scribe couldn't help being startled when he heard this sentence, and hurriedly said to Peng Hu.

Followed by a detailed explanation.

"Although this city has the advantage of a city wall, it cannot be defended"

"Once Wan County Magistrate Jia Nian's troops come to the city and call out the banner of Yuzhang's prefect, the people in the city will definitely have their hearts fluttered. At that time, they will rely on the army outside the city, and they may do the thing of seizing the gate."

"Although I am not afraid of waiting, the army is just around the corner, and I will not be able to defend against it"

"Therefore, we can only block them in Panyang Lake, relying on Yuzhang Port to isolate the two, so we can rest assured."

Peng Hu couldn't help hesitating, showing a hesitant look.

"Yuzhang County Mansion and Yuzhang Port have to be stationed, which is really a headache"

"Subordinates suggest that the lord personally lead two thousand troops to aid Yuzhang Port"

"two thousand?"

"Only when two thousand soldiers and horses arrive at Yuzhang Port will it be effective"

"Is there something wrong with only a thousand soldiers and horses remaining in the city?"

"The private soldiers of the four surnames are only rank 1. Even if there are more than a thousand, as long as you are careful, you should be fine. Moreover, the Shushu in the city can be found out by the subordinates. The lord can fight at ease, and the city will be foolproof."

"Shuoshu?"

"My lord, I know the life experience of Jia Nian, the county magistrate of Wan County."

"It is said that this person is from the Jia family in Wan County, Lujiang County"

"Since the lord knows his identity, he must also know that the Jia family in Wanxian County was the home of the richest man in Yangzhou in the past. Although the whole family was almost wiped out after the catastrophe. But Jia still left a lot of things, such as the relationship with the major families in Yangzhou. The complex relationship of the family"

Peng Hu suddenly came to his senses.

"Does it also include Yuzhang County?"

"exactly"

Peng Hu gasped when he heard the reply.

Thinking quickly in my mind, a picture emerged.If he led a large army to fight in the front, the Yuzhang County Mansion in the back changed hands again, and the two armies would attack back and forth.

"Did Jia Nian send someone to Yuzhang?"

"Not only came, but in this city"

"Why not grab it directly?"

"Why do you want to arrest the lord? Isn't this a godsend opportunity to collect all the savings of the wealthy families of the four surnames?"

The scribe asked Peng Hu back.

Peng Hu was taken aback for a moment, obviously not reacting.

"They are plotting against us, why can't we plot their savings?"

"Why Jia Nian, the magistrate of Wan County, was able to recruit more than [-] troops in a short period of time? One is refugees, and the other is Jia's savings."

"Nowadays, there is no shortage of people in Yuzhang County in the hands of the powerful and handsome. As long as the savings of these four surnames are plundered, wouldn't it be easy to recruit more than ten thousand soldiers? It is just to occupy Yuzhang better. All kinds of patience under the excuse. But if they send troops to attack, we just need to set up an ambush, at that time, all the private soldiers of the four surnames will die in battle, and their wealth for countless years will not be in the hands of the magnates?"

Hearing these words, Peng Hu's breathing became short of breath.

Thinking of the scene of holding tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, the whole heart became even hotter.

Although the soldiers and horses recruited are only Tier 1, they can't stand the huge number, and with the number of battles increasing.These Tier 1 soldiers, why can't they be trained to be an elite soldier.

Besides, even if they can't train into elite soldiers, there are still 21 counties where they can garrison.

At that time, as long as these soldiers and horses were stationed in the county, who would dare to disobey their orders in this huge Yuzhang County.

"The military master's plan is very clever, I wonder how sure you are."

"Subordinates are not talented, have five or six points to grasp"

"enough"

Peng Hu acted decisively and made this decision.

This is a once-and-for-all method, and with the character of a military adviser, he can say six points, which can also be called a surefire thing.

"come"

"exist"

The water thieves standing in front shouted in unison.

A sense of pride rose in Peng Hu's heart.

"Pass down the order to assemble two thousand soldiers and horses, and follow the commander to help Yuzhang Port"

"promise"

Several water thieves replied, and then strode away.

Seeing the backs of these water thieves leaving, Peng Hu looked at the scribes.

"The safety of a thousand soldiers and horses in the city and us are all in the hands of the military adviser"

"Subordinates must live up to the lord's entrustment"

The scribe assured Peng Hu.

There was a faint look of anticipation in my heart.

If the lord can really completely hold Yuzhang County in his hands, then the strength of his troops will inevitably skyrocket.

At that time, the status in the Shanyue League will naturally rise.

Once they have a higher status, it is not impossible for the soldiers and horses of the Shanyue clan to be taken under their command.

At that time, with Yuzhang in hand and tens of thousands of elite soldiers on the back of the mountain, they can easily sweep the separatist side of the south of the Yangtze River.
