No. 711 Shinno Prefecture Secret Council 2
Fu Tong took out the secret agents he sent from the desk, according to the original map of Jingzhou, plus the exploration during this time, redrawn the map of Wuling County and Nanjun, spread it on the table, pointed to the two counties closest to the Yangtze River in Wuling County and said: "Here, here, and here, Yan Cai, Wen Chang, I plan to lead troops directly to these three counties to garrison." As for the rescue of Huang Zu, I never thought about it from the beginning. ”
The three points that Fu Tong pointed out on the map of Wuling County with his hand happened to be the three counties in the north of Wuling County that were close to and parallel to the Yangtze River, and from east to north were Zuotang County, Lingyang County, and Chong County.
Huang Zu is the person Sun Ce must kill, everyone in the world knows it, and the generals and soldiers in Sun Ce's army are also very clear, not to mention, if Huang Zu is abandoned from the beginning, Fu Tong can use Huang Zu as a bait to use this time to urgently strengthen the defense of the existing county seats in these three counties.
As a general under Jin Jue, Fu Tong is also learning from Jin Jue in some places, for example, making great efforts to cultivate more outstanding talents under his command and train them to become his assistants. And Fu Tong's own characteristics, generally all the people he fancy, are basically the same as him, and have a good ability to fight defensive battles. Therefore, even this time, if Fu Tong really had to lead reinforcements to rescue Wuling County, he would neither need Wei Yan's help nor need to transfer Ma Han over to help him.
"However, Yancai, taking the opportunity to meet Liu Biao this time, I just introduced you to him, and there happens to be your clan uncle Fu Xun in Xiangyang City, presumably you will be able to integrate into Jingzhou as soon as possible, this is a rare opportunity for you and me, not to be missed!" Fu Tong suggested.
Fu Gan and Wei Yan both nodded when they heard this, obviously, the two of them also agreed with Fu Tong's suggestion.
"Zhizhong, when you leave, I will go with you to see Liu Biao." Hearing this, Fu Gan nodded, and then he asked Fu Tong a very important question, and said, "However, although your idea is very good, if Liu Biao refuses to give you enough troops when you go on the expedition, how should you deal with it?" ”
This problem has Huang Zu's pot in it, he went to Wuling County to take office, and took a completely different way of doing things from the past.
As soon as Huang Zufu took office, he not only eliminated the old, weak, sick and disabled among the county soldiers, but also recruited many young people in the county to join the army at a great cost. Not only that, after the conscription, he also let his other son, Huang Jian, train those newly recruited soldiers all the time, regardless of agricultural affairs. Sun Ce's sudden rise and capture of the entire Jiangdong and Liu Biao's transfer of him to Wuling County both shocked him greatly.
Huang Zu didn't blame Liu Biao for transferring him, what shocked him was that the scholars had already decided that if he continued to stay in Jiangxia County, not only would he not be able to hold there, but he would also most likely die at the hands of Sun Ce. After having this sense of crisis, Huang Zu had this kind of move.
On the surface, Huang Zu only recruited 10,000 recruits in Linyuan County, but in fact, as soon as Huang Zu took office, he asked his relatives to serve as county commanders in Wuling County, and these county commanders were ordered by him to disband all the defenders in the county as soon as he took office, and re-recruited 8,000 recruits composed of young and strong people.
Huang Zu did this locally, naturally he would encounter the obstruction of the remnants of the previous Taishou or the local family, and even because of Huang Zu's private order, there was a former county order that was relatively close to Wuxi Manxian County, and after killing one of Huang Zu's sons-in-law who came to take over, he raised troops to launch a rebellion.
However, in front of the army led by Huang Zu himself, this county order was still not enough, and it was quickly wiped out by Huang Zu and his troops. In the whole process of counterinsurgency, the leaders of the Wuxi Barbarians did not take any action.
The reason is very simple, Huang Zu also knew that the power of the leaders of Wuxi Man in the four counties of Jingnan was very large, and he had already secretly sent people with expensive gifts to visit the leaders of various departments in Wuxi Man, and reached an agreement with them in private.
During that time, Huang Zu was only thinking about how to save his own life, and he would make friends with any force in Wuling County that could be used to fight against Liu Biao who might deal with him in the future.
Liu Biao naturally knew what Huang Zu did in Wuling County, but he neither sent an envoy to reprimand Huang Zu, nor did he take this matter to heart. Huang Zu is a straw bag, this point, when he supported Huang Zu to serve as the Taishou of Jiangxia County, Liu Biao knew it very well. Otherwise, with his suspicious character, how could he really rest assured that the Huang family would control Jiangxia County?
Huang Zu recruited such a large number of troops in Wuling County, Liu Biao knew the reason very well, but Huang Zu not only did not pose the slightest threat to Liu Biao, but it was beneficial for Liu Biao to continue to control the four counties of Jingnan.
This is because Zhang Xian's temper is extremely unfriendly with Liu Biao, let alone Huang Zu?
Before, the counties where the two were located were connected, because Huang Zu was in Jiangxia County, and he did not do less things to bend the law, Zhang Xian hated him very much, which is also one of the reasons why Zhang Xian was not used to Liu Biao.
However, because of this, when Fu Tong went to Wuling County, Liu Biao was very likely to send him only a few troops for this reason, and it was very likely that he would only give him 10,000 soldiers.
"Hehehe, it doesn't matter, as long as there is Liu Biao's warrant, the work done by Huang Zu in the early stage is destined to just make a wedding dress for me." Fu Tong smiled when he heard this, and explained: "Sun Ce's army will attack Wuling County, and it will definitely rush west from Duliang County in the north of Lingling County to Wuling County, and then it will go north along the Yuanshui.
Based on the speed at which Sun Cejun and I led the reinforcements, I judged that when I led the troops to Lingyang County, Sun Ce would lead the troops to Chenyang County at most. Therefore, Yuanling County, north of Chenyang County, had to give up. When the time comes, I will personally lead the troops and bring back all the newly recruited soldiers from the southern Youyang and Qianling counties and the relatives of Huang Zu in the city. In this way, I can solve the problem of insufficient troops, right? ”
"Hahaha, Huang Zu has really done a great thing for us." When Wei Yan heard this, he laughed out loud.
The twelve counties of Wuling County, the southernmost Rongcheng County, Fu Tong couldn't take care of it, Chenyang County and Yuanling County, it was too late to save, and the county governance Linyuan County and the two surrounding counties Yuannan County and Hanshou County were too close to Linyuan County, and he was afraid of disturbing Huang Zu, so he also took the initiative to give up these two counties.
In this way, Fu Tong can obtain a total of 48,000 recruits from the remaining six counties, with so many troops, even if Liu Biao does not give him a single soldier, Fu Tong is confident that he will hold the northern part of Wuling County.
