Chapter 392: Big Fish
The big fish that Shi Ji said is still a mermaid.
Because he was afraid of injuring Wang Jun by mistake, when he knew that the front and back retreats were blocked, the guards around Wang Jun gave up resistance and were captured, so Shi Ji led the team, except for the two who were injured by mistake, but they captured Wang Jun's master and servant six people without much effort.
Also because she was worried that Wang Jun would be insulted by the rebel army, the guards around her also told her identity as soon as possible, but she didn't expect that this time to search for the thieves' nest in Chuzhou in Maoshan actually caught the role of the secretary of the Chuzhou Defense Embassy and the daughter of Wang Wenqian, the assassin of Yangzhou.
Seeing several Wang Jun's masters and servants who were tied up like a brown child, Han Qian was also surprised in his heart, the eldest lady of the Wang family should not stay in Yueyang Mubu Mountain at this time to guard filial piety for her grandfather Wang Jixiong, even if she was worried that Yueyang would detain her, she should also flee to Dantu to join her father Wang Wenqian, why did she run to Maoshan Mountain?
Xinchang Hou Li Pu also stared at the beautiful Wang family lady in confusion, and looked at Han Qian hesitantly, not knowing what he would do with Wang Wenqian's daughter.
Many things, Xinchang Hou Li Pu have finally figured it out by now.
When Han Qian was in Tanzhou, he clearly knew that Anning Palace had poisoned Shen He and intended to control the palace ban, and even had already seen that Emperor Tianyou's life was also under the control of Anning Palace at that time.
It's a pity that there is Wang Wenqian in Chuzhou.
In the end, it was Wang Wenqian who used tricks to force Han Daoxun to pierce this layer of window paper, and then set off a monstrous storm in Jinling.
Subsequently, Wang Wenqian also took the initiative to contact them, and conspired in Qiuhu Mountain to issue a letter of rebellion, which stimulated the Anning Palace to split Han Daoxun.
Xinchang Marquis Li Pu believes that Han Qian wants to avenge the murder of his father, and Wang Wenqian should be followed by Anning Palace, otherwise Han Qian would not expel Wang Jixiong's bones from Xuzhou and not give him a place to be buried; He also decided that Han Qian's senseless raid on Danyang in the early hours of this morning was to vent his personal anger, but he didn't know how he would treat Wang Wenqian's daughter at this time?
Wang Jun followed his grandfather Wang Jixiong to Xuzhou to mourn Han Daoxun, no matter how much Han Qian hated in his heart, it was impossible to leave Wang Jun in trouble, otherwise, everyone in the world would only laugh at him for bullying women and children, but at this time, Han Qian captured Wang Jun in the secret lair secretly set up in Maoshan in Chuzhou, and it seemed that there was no need to show mercy.
It was impossible for Han Qian to send her to Dantu and Wang Wenqian's hands, right? Xinchang Hou Li Pu thought to himself.
"Put the guards in the dungeon, choose a clean courtyard in addition, invite the eldest lady of the Wang family and the maid to live in, take strict care of them, and wait for Wang Wenqian to send someone to redeem them!" Han Qian didn't want to waste too many brain cells on Wang Jun, so he ordered Shi Ji to detain and put Wang Jun's master and servant under house arrest.
Wang Jun didn't have the consciousness of being a prisoner, just loosened the tie, rubbed his wrist that was red and swollen by the rope, looked at the parts of the weapons that had just been moved out of the secret vault in the courtyard, and asked Han Qian in surprise: "Lord Han deployed these before the Jinling Incident?" It's a pity, if Hou Ye Li and Mr. Bai Shi had the courage to guard Qiuhu Mountain alone, and didn't calculate for my father, Uncle Han wouldn't have died so miserably. But it's also strange, if you want to set up a secret base outside of Qiuhu Mountain, you should also choose to choose the northern foot of Baohua Mountain near the river, why choose Maoshan Mountain? Before the Jinling Incident, you couldn't have predicted that my father would use the siege strategy......"
Asking Wang Jun to stare at it like this, Han Qian felt uncomfortable being seen through by the woman in front of him.
He heard that Wang Jun was brilliant and well-read since he was a child, and Wang Jixiong did not shy away from saying that he had a lot of excerpts of books, which were written by Wang Jun, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old at the time, but all of them were in the heart of the emperor.
Han Qian didn't know that when she saw the weapons parts piled up in the courtyard, she could see such a critical suspicion in the blink of an eye, and it was a suspicion that he couldn't speak.
From the dream world, he had seen the established historical process, and he was not sure that there was turmoil in Jinling earlier, whether he was in Jinling or in a foreign land, how could he not try his best to make more preparations?
The so-called three caves of cunning rabbits, the second cave is not placed at the northern foot of Baohua Mountain, which is on the verge of the river, but in Maoshan Mountain, Han Qian is mainly worried that history has a strong inertia that is extremely difficult to reverse, and it is deployed according to the situation of Jinling being besieged.
Once the Chuzhou army carried out a complete siege of Jinling, it meant that Baohua Mountain, which was closer to Jinling and Runzhou and was close to the Yangtze River, was already completely under its control.
As long as there is no extremely strong force rising in Jiangnan Dongdao, Maoshan's strategic position will be far less prominent than Baohua Mountain, and will be ignored by the Chuzhou army or the Anning Palace and Shouzhou army.
The key point in this is that Han Qian has been thinking about the situation after Jinling was completely besieged very early, but even if he is a wise man among three or five people in the world, he can only see some clues and clues of the Chuzhou army's intention to besiege Jinling after the first battle of Jingshan'an.
Wang Jun may know his father's plan better, but being able to see such a key suspicion in such a short period of time also makes Han Qian secretly frightened.
Han Qian ignored Wang Jun's questioning, but no matter how thick-skinned Li Pu, Marquis of Xinchang, he was so counted by a yellow-haired girl like Wang Jun, his old face was red, and he couldn't wait to find a piece to bury his old face in.
"Miss!"
Wang Jun and the two maids were treated preferentially and were untied at this time, but the three guards were still tied up on the wet mud floor, and one of them thought that Wang Jun was outspoken and inadvertently leaked the core secrets of Chuzhou, and reminded him loudly.
To be honest, they didn't know what strategy Chuzhou would use to take Jinling City, but they were usually used to seeing the young lady fighting wits and courage with the head of the family, and they also knew that the young lady could best understand what choice the head of the family would suggest King Xin to make, so she couldn't help but remind her to keep her mouth shut in front of Han Qian, and not to leak Chuzhou's secrets easily.
Wang Jun stretched out his hand to cover his lips, glanced apologetically at the tied guards, and explained to himself: "Lord Han attacked Danyang, abandoned it, and turned to defend Maoshan Mountain, in fact, he has already seen through my father's plan, and it should not be regarded as a leak." ”
At this time, Li Pu, Marquis of Xinchang, thought of something different, stared at Wang Jun, and asked in surprise: "Your father wants to use the siege strategy?" What to surround and besiege Jinling? ”
"Han Qian didn't explain to you why he didn't take Danyang and didn't defend it?" Wang Jun didn't know that Li Pu had actually been seized by Han Qian at this time, but when he saw them standing together calmly, he thought that the remnants of Taowu's army collection household raided Danyang in the early morning, which was what Han Qian did after discussing with him, and asked in surprise.
"You don't have to ask him, Marquis Li didn't even understand why the Chuzhou army drove him to the Yanling area to get food, and he also fantasized about the opportunity to lead forty or fifty thousand old and weak women and children to retreat to the east of Taihu Lake to get food!" Han Qian said coldly.
Han Qian and Wang Jun pierced these two key points, and no matter how sluggish Li Pu of Xinchang was, he could also figure out what Wang Wenqian's siege strategy was all about.
He stood there dumbfounded, his hands and feet cold:
Siege of the city is the siege of Jinling City!
The main force of the Chuzhou army crossed the river to the south, but it had to face the elite of the Shouzhou army that crossed the river to the south at the same time, and it was worried that the fierce battle with the Shouzhou army would lose both, and it would be cheaper Yueyang, who had been secretly preparing for several months for the situation in Jinling.
Under such a situation, the Chuzhou army did not dare to rush into a decisive battle, so it could only concentrate its forces to confront the elite of the Shouzhou army on the north and south banks of Chishan Lake first, and at this time, the 3,000 remnants of the army led by him and the 40,000 old and weak women and children were driven to Maoshan and Yanling, so as to complete the deployment they needed to blockade Jinling from the east.
In doing so, Wang Wenqian not only used the 40,000 or 50,000 old and weak women and children who were not a threat to consume the grain stocks in the Jiangcheng and Danyang areas, but also used them to block the passage of grain from the east of Jiangnan to Jinling through the southern passage of Liyang and Danyang.
Jinling consumes six or seven million stones of grain every year, and eight or nine out of ten of them come from the abundant fish and rice prefectures in the eastern province of Jiangnan.
After completing this step, the longer the confrontation between the Chuzhou army and the Shouzhou army, the more favorable the situation will be for Chuzhou.
The Chuzhou army itself was better at field warfare, but when the shortage of food in Jinling and the surrounding counties became more and more serious, the people were restless, and the foundation of the Shouzhou army in Jinling was floating, it would be more difficult to win in the field battle.
Occupying the advantage and initiative, Chuzhou can calmly harvest the attachment and allegiance of the Jiangnan host states, and can continuously requisition money, food and troops from the Jiangnan host states, and finally delay the Shouzhou army when it is the weakest.
In the final analysis, he was a pawn used by Wang Wenqian to plot the overall situation from beginning to end?
Of course, Wang Wenqian's action also has another intention, which is to intensify the contradictions between local forces in Yueyang and Runhu and other prefectures.
The main force of the Chuzhou army crossed the river to the south, and 50,000 soldiers and horses had to collect 60,000 or 70,000 stone of grain from the local area every month, and most of the local forces did not dare to hate Chuzhou in their hearts, but their 3,000 remnants of soldiers, 450,000 old and weak women and children also had to requisition grain of a comparable scale every month.
Is it psychologically natural to be attached to Chuzhou, and regard Yueyang as an enemy?
Thinking that he had fallen into Wang Wenqian's calculations from beginning to end, and finally had a yellow-haired girl to break it, Li Pu really wanted to dig a pit now and bury himself in it.
Li Pu was cold all over his body at the moment, in addition to Wang Wenqian's deep calculations, what made him even more secretly frightened was Han Qian, who was in Xuzhou but could easily see through Wang Wenqian's calculations.
As for Han Qian's hidden armor and grain in Maoshan beforehand, he didn't think as deeply as Wang Jun thought, and just thought that this was the suspicious Han Qian's cunning rabbit three holes.
Of course, he was still a little puzzled in his heart, but he didn't have the face to ask, it was Han Qian's intention to seize Danyang without guarding it, but in the end he ran over to guard Maoshan with 3,000 remnants of soldiers and nearly 50,000 women and children......
