Chapter 780: Return to Lujiang again
Lujiang County is very big, how big is it, that is, later Wei divided the junction of Lujiang and Jiangxia into two new counties.
It is called Yiyang County and Anfeng County.
This is also why Lu Kang was able to rely on this county to compete with Yuan Shu for so long.
Later, Lu Kang was sandwiched between the imperial court and Liu Zheng, left and right, but he has always lived a very stable life.
Lu Kang was ostensibly loyal to the imperial court, and the confrontation between him and Yuan Shu was known to the imperial court.
Now the imperial court is showing weakness, so for a Taishou like Lu Kang, it is generally wooed and will not be directly banned.
The main thing is that he is really afraid, in case he uses a tough attitude, the territory is not subdued, and he pushes these people to the opposite side of the imperial court.
That's not what the court wants to see.
Therefore, the imperial court's attitude towards people like Lu Kang is generally to woo, not ban.
Because of this, Lu Kang has not been banned by the imperial court in the past few years, but because the imperial court and Liu Zheng did not attack him, Lu Kang's Lujiang County has developed better and better.
Many surrounding places, such as Jiangxia, because of the perennial war, a large number of people have been lost, some of them went directly to Liu Zheng's territory, and the other part went to Lujiang.
Liu Zheng took Xu Huang's cavalry and rushed to Lujiang first, and Sun Jian led people to arrive later.
Because of the cavalry, it only took Liu Zheng three days to reach Lujiang.
Originally, a large number of cavalry had crossed the border, which had already attracted Lu Kang's attention, but when he saw that the person who came was the cavalry led by Liu Zheng, Lu Kang was still a little relieved.
Liu Zheng took Xu Huang and Lu Bu's trapping camp and did not leave directly from here.
Since he has come, he always has to say hello to Lu Kang.
Shu County.
This is Zhou Yu's hometown.
This time to attack Yuzhou, Zhou Yu's soldiers and horses were also transferred from Xuyi by Liu Zheng.
At this time, Zhou Yu followed Liu Zheng's side.
Zhou Yu hasn't been back to his home for years.
Over the years, those who have followed Liu Zheng to run around and fight in the south and the north have grown up a lot.
He left home at the age of twelve, and now he is back at the age of sixteen.
The current county magistrate of Shu County is Zhou Yu's father.
In fact, Liu Zheng mentioned to Zhou Yu that he asked Zhou Yu's father to come under his command and be Liu Zheng's construction order.
After all, Zhou Yu's father, Zhou Yi, had made a Luoyang order before, and it was nothing to make a construction order for Liu Zheng.
After all, on Liu Zheng's side, it is better to have Zhou Yu as a backing than to be a small Shu County magistrate in Lujiang County.
However, a person from a big family like Zhou Yi, at this time, although he has the heart to take refuge in Liu Zheng, after all, it is a matter of a big family, and it is not him Zhou Yi who has the final say.
Zhou Yu's grandfather was an official to Sikong, Taiwei, and had a knighthood, so it was naturally better to continue to maintain a good relationship with the imperial court.
And Zhou Yu's father is not the head of the Zhou family, just a concubine, although he can become the Luoyang Commander by relying on the afterglow of the family, but many things are decided by the head of the Zhou family.
Zhou Yi's father is also difficult to fight against the family. In addition, Zhou Yi felt that his son Zhou Yu was in Liu Zheng's camp, no matter who won or lost in the end, their Zhou family could be preserved, and he believed in this golden mean, which made the Zhou family not move his family to Liu Zheng.
For this, Liu Zheng didn't care about it at all, after all, Zhou Yi and the people of the Zhou family, he didn't care whether he took refuge in him or not.
He himself doesn't care too much about the people of the Zhou family, as long as Zhou Yu defects to him, then Liu Zheng has no opinion.
Here in Shu County, although it is the boundary of the Lujiang River, after Liu Zheng's arrival, there is some familiarity.
Zhou Yi, as the county magistrate, entertained Liu Zheng for a meal in Shu County, and invited Lu Kang to come over in advance, Zhou Yi and Lu Kang both knew Liu Zheng.
In addition, now Liu Zheng has established himself as the emperor, and his identity is no longer the same as them, but they still admire Liu Zheng.
The Lu family represented by Lu Kang is actually the same as the Zhou family's abacus.
If there is a big chaos today, who will dominate the world and become the next emperor to open up the country, no one can say for sure, they are local forces, they dare not choose easily, if the choice is wrong, the whole family will follow this force and suffer destruction together.
The most appropriate way is to disperse the children of the family, and each force to put some, that is, the so-called eggs cannot be put in one basket.
In this way, in the end, no matter which force dominates the world, the flame of the family will not be extinguished because of this, there are many families who have done this in history, of course, the most famous is the Zhuge family.
Zhuge Liang is in Shu, his eldest brother Zhuge Jin is in Wu, and his cousin Zhuge is in Wei.
The three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu all had people from their families.
No matter who wins the world in the end, the Zhuge family can have the last laugh.
It's a pity, I never expected to run out of a Sima family and steal the artifact.
caused the Zhuge family to lose all the games.
At this time, the Zhou family and the Lu family actually made the same calculations as the Zhuge family.
They all let the children of their families join Liu Zheng, but they did not use the strength of the whole clan to belong to Liu Zheng. What I thought in my heart was nothing more than that the current Han had not completely lost the power to resist.
Of course, Liu Zheng understood what they were thinking.
It's just that Liu Zheng was not surprised by this, and he didn't even have any objections.
After all, although the Zhou family and the Lu family did not raise the strength of the whole clan to take refuge in him, in many things, the Zhou family and the Lu family maintained absolute neutrality and did not favor the imperial court.
Just like now Liu Zheng led the army to Runan, passing through the Lujiang River, the Lu family and the Zhou family not only did not send troops to obstruct it, but on the contrary, they would welcome it and set up a banquet.
As long as they don't get in the way of Liu Zheng's affairs, even if they don't take refuge, Liu Zheng won't mind.
Anyway, Liu Zheng knew that when the time was ripe, they would naturally gradually fall to Liu Zheng's side.
As long as Liu Zheng can defeat the imperial court, Liu Zheng is not afraid that they will oppose him.
At the banquet, Liu Zheng didn't even propose to the Zhou family and the Lu family, but talked to them about the past.
At the same time, let Lu Jun, Zhou Yu and others talk to the elders in their families about their experiences under Liu Zheng and what positions they hold now.
Liu Zheng didn't stay in Lujiang for long, he was planning to attack Yuzhou this time, and he couldn't delay here for too long.
If you delay for too long, it will not be able to play the role of a surprise attack, and if the news leaks out, it will not be good for the enemy to be prepared.
Fortunately, Liu Zheng led Xu Huang's cavalry this time, with strong mobility and able to attack quickly, and there was nothing wrong with the plan of a surprise attack on Yuzhou.
After bidding farewell to the Zhou family and the Lu family, Liu Zheng went north to Runan County.
