Chapter 448: Target Danyang
Liu Zheng waved his hand, signaling that Yang Hong didn't have to be polite, and then he told Yang Hong about his intention this time.
"What Yuan Shu means, I already understand, he wants to be the emperor, this matter really surprised me for me, but I think about it, the eldest son of the Yuan family of the fourth and third princes, and only he has this qualification to be the emperor. Go back and tell Yuan Shu, just say what he asked me to do, and I agreed. ”
"I can form an alliance with him and help each other, if there is a man from the imperial court who attacks either of us, I will send troops to help, of course, he wants to be the emperor, I can't control it, I can support it, but for such a big thing, only give me three thousand gold, isn't it a little too stingy?"
Of course, Liu Zheng felt that it had nothing to do with disagreeing, but the three thousand gold sent by Yuan Shu made Liu Zheng feel that he was not generous enough.
Mainly, it is also Liu Zheng who wants to blackmail Yuan Shu for a little more money, Yuan Shu's family is rich, and he will definitely not only be able to get 3,000 gold, even a Cai Mao, he can grit his teeth and take out more than 2,000 gold, his Yuan Shu's status is not comparable to Cai Mao, what's the matter, he has to cheat Yuan Shu for 5,000 gold.
After Liu Zheng thought of this, he revealed his meaning to Yang Hong.
Yang Hong is also a smart person, and as soon as Liu Zheng mentioned it so simply, he immediately understood.
Especially after knowing Liu Zheng's intentions, he showed a happy look on his face, because when he came, he was still worried that Liu Zheng might not agree to Yuan Shu's request, but now he has made it clear that Liu Zheng agreed to Yuan Shu's request, but the price code given by Yuan Shu is not enough, Liu Zheng wants to ask for more price.
For this, Yang Hong was not worried at all, because this was a problem that Yuan Shu needed to think about, and he just needed to go back and recover his life.
Anyway, Liu Zheng's side has already been solved, and there is no need for him to bother more.
"Lord Liu Zheng, what you mean, I understand, I'll go back and reply to my father-in-law, discuss a satisfactory result, and then send it to you. As long as Lord Liu Zheng is willing to support my lord to be the emperor, my lord will definitely give Lord Liu Zheng a satisfactory return. ”
Yang Hong's answer made Liu Zheng very satisfied, he glanced at Yang Hong with a smile, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that this Yang Hong was becoming more and more pleasing to the eye, if Yuan Shu was defeated and killed in the future, maybe, Liu Zheng was really willing to take this Yang Hong, recruit him, and give an official like the master Bo to be a pawn.
"Then send Mr. Yang Hong back."
The meeting between Liu Zheng and Yang Hong was very short, and the things to be discussed were soon negotiated, and after it was over, Liu Zheng sent off the guests.
He didn't have much time to deal with Yuan Shu at this time, although Poyang was defeated, there were still three counties in Yangzhou, which were in the hands of the imperial court.
One is Lu Kang's Lujiang, with Lu Jun's relationship, Liu Zheng will definitely not fight Lujiang at this time.
The second is Wu County, although Wu County is still under the control of the imperial court, but it only exists in name only, part of the territory is occupied by Yan Baihu, and the other part is occupied by Yuan Shu's men and horses, and the rest of it will not last long, and sooner or later it will be annexed by them.
As for the third one, it is Danyang County.
Danyang County is a place where Liu Zhengzhi must win, not for anything else, but for the people here in Danyang.
The people of Danyang County here are fierce, it has always been famous for its strong combat effectiveness, in the second year of the Tianhan Dynasty of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty (99 years ago), Li Guangchang's grandson Li Ling was ordered by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to go out to fight against the Xiongnu in Junji Mountain and met the main force of the Xiongnu Shan Yu, Li Ling fought the main force of the Xiongnu with 5,000 Danyang soldiers in isolation and helplessness, once made the Xiongnu Shan tremble, and was captured after fighting for thousands of miles, which shows that the combat effectiveness of the Danyang soldiers is really strong.
During the Three Kingdoms period, the Danyang soldiers still maintained the tradition of being brave and good at fighting, and were the first choice for the princes of the world to recruit troops, and there was no one in the second phase, such as "the general He Jin sent the Duwei Wuqiu Yi Danyang to recruit troops", Cao Cao also recruited troops in Danyang, "Taizu has few soldiers, but he recruits troops with Xiahou Dun and other Danyang".
Many people in the Three Kingdoms praised the Danyang soldiers, such as Yuan Shu said: "This place is famous for its elite soldiers"; Zhuge Ke also said when he was too punctual in Danyang of Eastern Wu in the future: "Danyang Mountain is dangerous, and the people are fruitful...... Vulgar martial arts practice, noble strength, its rise to danger, to the thorns, if the fish go to the abyss, the ape of the Tengmu also. "Danyang soldiers have almost become synonymous with strong soldiers.
The reason why Sun Ce was able to sweep Jiangdong with a hurricane after breaking away from Yuan was that in addition to his own courage and good fighting, as well as the help of his father Sun Jian's old department and the talents he recruited, there was another important reason, that is, Sun Ce recruited hundreds of Danyang soldiers from Danyang at the beginning of his army, and Sun Ce started with these hundreds of Danyang soldiers and Sun Jian's old department, and the snowball became bigger and bigger step by step, and his strength gradually grew, and finally unified the six counties of Jiangdong and laid the foundation of one of the three parts of the world.
Liu Bei's fortune is also closely related to the Danyang soldiers, Xuzhou Mu Taoqian is a Danyang person, so he has a lot of Danyang soldiers under his command, which is also the basis for his survival under the surrounding heroes. Cao Cao went east to Xuzhou, and when Liu Bei led the army to aid Tao Qian, Tao Qian generously sent 4,000 Danyang soldiers to Liu Bei, and later these Danyang soldiers became the powerful white soldiers in his hands.
It can be said that the most soldiers and horses in the world is this Danyang.
Of course, no matter how early the soldiers and horses are, it also depends on the commander-in-chief, if the general of the unified army is a straw bag, it is to give him 100,000 trapped in the camp, and it will not help.
In Danyang, the personal quality is strong enough, and if you recruit people, it is easier to recruit elite soldiers with high quality here than other places.
Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses are already powerful, if he can capture Danyang County and recruit some elite soldiers from Danyang, it will really make Liu Zheng's strength improve a lot in an instant.
It's just that this Danyang County is not easy to fight.
At this time, the Taishou was called Zhou Xin, and a few days ago, Liu Zheng had already sent scouts to infiltrate Danyang County, and the news of Danyang County was almost done.
Zhou Xin was originally a subordinate of Wang Lang, the Taishou of Huiji County, and speaking of which, he was able to become the position of the Taishou of Danyang County, and he had some relationship with Liu Zheng.
When Liu Miao was still in Huiji County, he had a good relationship with Wang Lang.
Wang Lang is a scholar of scripture. is a well-known figure again, a contemporary celebrity, Liu Xuan naturally likes to visit in the past, and he takes a fancy to Wang Lang's military general Zhou Xin, plus in order to let Huiji County and Danyang County have some close cooperation, Zhou Xin will go to Danyang to serve as the Taishou.
It's a pity that Liu Miao miscalculated, and after Zhou Xin arrived in Danyang, he did not play the corresponding responsibility.
