Bai Xiaowen looked at the Jingzhou scholars who came to greet him, and said with a smile: "There are so many Jingzhou talents. "Immediately ordered, Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue, Han Song and other fifteen people, all of whom were named Guannei Hou.

The Jingzhou scholars thanked one after another, surrounded Bai Xiaowen's six-car golden car, and entered Xiangyang City.

Xun You asked: "The Jingzhou scholar clan has no merit in size, why did the king suddenly add a reward?"

Bai Xiaowen replied with a smile: "How can Lone be a person who rewards and punishes unknown? The reward for the Jingzhou Shi clan is just to buy horse bones for a thousand gold and shake the will of the Jiangdong Shi clan." When the Jiangdong scholars saw that the Jingzhou scholars were crowned, they would enthusiastically surrender to the imperial court, and no longer rebel against Sun Ce. ”

Xun You showed a look of joy and sincerity, and praised: "The king has insight into people's hearts, and the holy candle shines." ”

Bai Xiaowen pouted without a trace, fake, too fake. Xun You, Xun You, I didn't expect you to have thick eyebrows and big eyes, but you also learned this set.

Jokes aside, Xun You must actually know the reason why Bai Xiaowen rewarded the Jingzhou scholars.

The reason why he pretended not to know and asked, on the one hand, he could solve the doubts and disbelief in the hearts of the military officials under Bai Xiaowen's ministry, and on the other hand, he patted King Yan's ass with his hand.

Sitting down in Jingzhou's Thorn Mansion, Bai Xiaowen received a report that the 30,000 defenders of Hefei had rushed to Xiangyang to join the army of King Yan.

Those who led the army were Jia Xu, Zhang Xiu, Zhang Liao, and Xu Huang. As for Cao Ren, he led the remaining 30,000 horses to guard the city of Anhui and rebuild the new city of Hefei at the same time.

Such a distribution is also Bai Xiaowen's instruction.

If it is said that he knows people and makes good use of them, Bai Xiaowen is only stronger than the major monarchs of the Three Kingdoms.

Jia Xu led the three generals to bow down, holding the long box in his hand: "Jia Xu is fortunate not to be dishonored, and the special general will return the sword to the king." ”

Bai Xiaowen saw Jia Xu for the first time. He personally descended the steps, took Jia Xu's hand and said with a smile: "Jia Wenhe is lonely, better than 100,000 male soldiers." ”

Jia Xu seemed a little uncomfortable to be the focus of attention, shrank back, and said with a reluctant smile: "The king is serious." ”

Seeing that Jia Xu was not adaptable, Bai Xiaowen no longer insisted on it, took the sword box of Yitian Sword, and ordered Zhang Xiu and the others to get up, and then look at the seat.

The master and slave sat down, and Bai Xiaowen said: "With you resisting Sun Ce, you can rest assured that you can take Erchuan, otherwise Xichuan will definitely be occupied by Liu Bei, and Hanzhong will not be protected." Qing and others have worked hard and deserve to be rewarded. ”

How to reward has been agreed as early as Yedu.

Jia Xu was made a servant, one of the Nine Qings, one level higher than his "Zhijinwu" under Cao Cao.

Zhang Xiu was promoted to the general of Zhendong, Zhang Liao and Xu Huang were the generals of Pingnan and Pingdong respectively, and Cao Ren, who guarded the city of Anhui, also had envoys who went with Bai Xiaowen's edict and was named the general of Zhennan. Other gold and silver silk silks, needless to say.

Everyone thanked them.

Jia Xu said with a smile: "The king rewarded the official position like this, he must have the heart to go to the south of the Yangtze River." ”

Bai Xiaowen nodded and said, "That's nature." All sides are determined, only the south of the Yangtze River is not flat, how can the side of the couch allow others to sleep soundly? ”

Bai Xiaowen ordered people to beat drums, gather large and small generals, and arrange them in the hall.

"Zhang He, Jia Xu listen to orders!"

Both of them were slightly stunned, and then hurried out of the ranks.

"Zhang He is the main general, Jia Xu is the military division, leading 20,000 Sichuan soldiers, going to Lingling, and feint to attack Luling!"

Although Zhang He was a little puzzled, he still accepted the order awe-inspiringly.

When inspecting the soldiers and horses, Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu separated and said: "Congratulations to Mr. Yan for being so valued by King Yan and being promoted to the position of Jiuqing." However, why did Mr. see the meaning of going down to Jiangnan from the officials of King Yan?"

Jia Xu said: "There are two reasons. First, King Yan commanded 100,000 troops to go south, if it was only for the four counties of Jingzhou, it would be too much of a fuss; second, the generals and officers awarded by King Yan were all 'Pingdong', 'Pingnan' and the like, which is enough to see his intentions. ”

Zhang Xiu nodded, and said: "Mr. is in good spirits today, which seems to be very different from the Taoguang Yanghui when he was under Cao Cao's command. ”

Jia Xu smiled: "With such a master, I dare to show my strengths." ”

Looking left and right, Jia Xu whispered to Zhang Xiu: "King Yan himself is a first-class wise man, and Tao Strategy is better than Cao Cao. We are strategists, we have tried our best to make suggestions, and it is difficult to look at the back of King Yan, so why do we need to keep our eyes on it?"

While the two were talking, they suddenly heard Zhang He's voice: "Lord Taifu, I have already checked the baggage of soldiers and horses." The military situation is urgent, so let's go south quickly. ”

Jia Xu agreed.

Zhang Xiu said: "Mr. is a staff officer of General Zhang He, I don't know if he has surrendered or not, will he be like me, and obey Mr. ”

Jia Xu smiled and said: "What you can imagine, how could King Yan not think of it? Zhang He is also a good general, pacifying the bandits in the state, taking over the defense of Jingzhou, behaving in a moderate manner, advancing and retreating in accordance with the law." I use timekeeping, just explain the reason, Zhang He must be able to understand. ”

After a pause, Jia Xu said again: "If Zhang He doesn't need me to care, I will be silent." Anyway, it's a feint, and with Zhang He's ability, he won't suffer a big defeat. I am now one of the Nine Qings, and I don't have to learn from it to make meritorious achievements and win wealth. ”

......

Bai Xiaowen personally led the main force of the army of 110,000 and lied about 300,000 to march into Jiangxia.

Wei Yan asked for the vanguard, and Bai Xiaowen allowed to allocate 10,000 soldiers and horses to him.

Wei Yan's vanguard army came to Jiangxia City, erected a ladder, and catapults flew artillery to attack the city.

In Jiangxia City, Lu Su and Lu Meng defended desperately, but the soldiers were outnumbered, and the main force of the army was used by Sun Ce for the battle of Hefei, and he is currently resting in Jiangdong.

In addition, Bai Xiaowen's role in sealing the Jingzhou Shi clan is reflected, and the people of the Shi clan in Jiangxia City are not interested in the Jiangdong army.

Lu Su and Lu Meng discussed.

Lu Su said: "There is a shortage of grain and grass in the city, and the soldiers are weak. Jiangxia City couldn't hold it. ”

Lu Meng said: "Fortunately, Wei Yan has few soldiers and horses, and in my estimation, he can hold on for half a month." ”

Lu Su shook his head and said:

"Wei Yan is not to be afraid, but Yuan Xi's army of 300,000 will come soon. When Jiangxia is surrounded, not only will the city be lost, you and I will become prisoners, but also these 3,000 soldiers and horses will be captured and killed by Yuan's army. ”

Lu Meng said: "We are entrusted by the lord to guard the four counties of Jiangxia. These four counties are the result of our army's bloody battles, and it is a pity to abandon them. ”

Lu Su said: "If people lose land, people and land will survive; The four counties of Jiangxia are lonely, separated from the foundation of our army, by the vast river, and they cannot hold on, so they can only give up. ”

After listening to Lu Su's words, Lu Meng clenched his fists and said: "Listening to your words is like an empowerment." He led the army, broke through from the south gate, and returned south of the river. ”

The two had made up their minds, so they opened the south gate at night and broke out. Wei Yan was unprepared, and when he saw the soldiers and horses of Jiangxia City fleeing, he was overjoyed, waved his army straight in, occupied the city, and sent people to win the victory of King Yan's army.
