Hui abandoned Jianning and withdrew to Juti.

Located in the middle of Vietnam, Zhuti County is the southernmost gateway to Chengdu.

As soon as Li Hui returned to Jianning, he received news that Gaoding, the king of Yueyi, had killed Taishou Zhengang and raised troops to rebel, while at the same time, Taishou Zhu led 30,000 Wuxi barbarian soldiers, plus 20,000 under Zhu Bao's command, to attack Jianning.

Because Li Hui had already evacuated Jianning, Zhu Bao occupied Jianning almost without bloodshed.

Then Zhu Bao continued to march north to attack Zhu Ti, but at this time Li Hui had already set up a defensive line in Zhu Ti, and at the same time sent people back to Chengdu for help.

Juti.

Lu Kai hurriedly came to the front of Hui and said, "My lord, I just received news that Gao Ding is leading 70,000 troops and is attacking Zhu Ti. Moreover, the Yongda army has also left Yongchang, and now it has arrived in Jianning. ”

Li Hui nodded and said, "Ping, I've worked hard for you these days. ”

After Li Hui retreated to Ti, he began to deploy defenses, because Li Hui's subordinates were not enough, so Lu Kai was reused by Li Hui. And Lu Kai did not disappoint Li Hui, he was decent, tightly organized, and deeply appreciated by Li Hui.

Lu Kai smiled and asked, "My lord, now that the army is attacking, I don't know if my lord can have a countermeasure?" ”

"Zhu Ti is a household in the south of Chengdu. There is no room for error. So I'm going to hold on to Juti. And I have already sent someone back to Chengdu to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for help. Li Hui replied.

"Great. In fact, now Lu Xun's army of more than 100,000 is attacking our Shu. I think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may have taken care of himself. I'm afraid it's hard to come to us with care. Lu Kai said.

"Not bad. More than 100,000 people! I'm afraid for a short time. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not be able to take care of us. Li Hui said with a frown.

Whether it is Li Hui or Lu Kai. They all thought that Lu Xun's army of more than 100,000 was attacking. I am afraid that this war will last for a year and a half. Therefore, it is impossible to have too many reinforcements to support Zhu Tidi in a short period of time.

Li Hui and Lu Kai naturally didn't know. Lu Xun's 100,000 horses were almost trapped and died in the eight formations. Moreover, the grain and grass in Yiling Land were also burned by Adou. This battle. It lasted no more than ten days.

Seeing Li Hui's brows, he frowned. Lu Kai knew that Li Hui had no choice but to do it himself. Lu Kai hesitated. Only then did he speak, "My lord." I would like to recommend one person to an adult. This man has the talent to endure the heavens and the earth. There is this person. I will be able to defend Juti. ”

"Who is this person?" Li Hui hurriedly asked.

"This person's name is Wang, a native of Chengdu. I met this person when I was studying in Chengdu that year. I heard that he is now in Juti. ”

"Okay, tomorrow I will send someone to invite the king here."

……

White Emperor.

After Adou returned to the White Emperor, he was warmly welcomed by the soldiers of the three armies.

The repulsion of Lu Xun's army of more than 100,000 in a few days was a great victory in anyone's eyes. Although the Jiangdong army eventually fled, this did not affect the spread of Adou's prestige among the army.

Zhang Ren immediately held a grand celebration banquet for Adou, and Zhang Ren also authorized the soldiers of the three armies to drink, and the pigs and sheep were slaughtered in the White Emperor City, which was very lively.

In the middle of the night, on the upper floor of the White Emperor City, several soldiers gathered together, enjoying hot food.

The sound of horses' hooves came from a distance, and then several horses came to the White Emperor City.

The soldiers on the city tower stood up, looked towards the city, and saw a few dusty people standing under the city, but judging from their clothes, these people were all Shu soldiers, and they were still wearing that kind of high-grade armor, which was not something that ordinary Shu soldiers could wear.

"Who's coming?" The people of the city shouted.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can be in the city, Chengdu is urgent!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in the city, this general is waiting, I will report immediately. However, please also ask the general to send us a letter of identity to shoot the wounded city, and I can report it later. The soldiers in the city shouted.

The people under the city immediately bent their bows and arrows and shot the letters that could prove their identity into the city, and the soldiers defending the city opened it to see that it was now covered with the seal of General Zuo Sima's mansion.

Now that Liu Bei is on the Northern Expedition, General Zuo's Great Sima Mansion has been handed over to Zhang Song and Li Yan to manage, and now speaking of which, these people are sent from General Zuo's Great Sima Mansion.

The soldiers in the city did not dare to slack off, and immediately went to report back to Zhang Ren.

Inside the city.

Zhang Ren's three steps were counted as two steps and rushed to Adou's room.

"General Zhang Ren, why are you in such a hurry?" Adou asked.

Zhang Ren took a few breaths before he spoke: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Chengdu is in a hurry!" Nanban Meng Huo, Yongchang Yong, Gao Ding, and Zhu jointly rebelled! ”

"What about Li Hui?"

"Lord Li has withdrawn from Kunming and went to Zhuti to set up defenses."

"I see!" Adou said very calmly.

Adou's calm reaction made Zhang Ren slightly stunned. gave birth to such a big thing, and Adou's reaction was too calm.

"Zhang Ren, tell Zhang, I'll rush back to Chengdu now, and let him catch up tomorrow." Adou said, hanging the treasure bag around his waist, and then walked out, and disappeared into the darkness in a blink of an eye.

Seeing Adou leaving, Zhang Ren opened his mouth and did not speak. Today, Zhang Ren finally knows what it means to be unfazed. encountered such a big thing, Adou just said "I know". I'm afraid even Zhuge Liang can't be so calm.

Zhang Ren didn't know that Adou had already made up his mind about the affairs of the Nanban.

In history, Yong, Zhu and Gao Ding rebelled after Liu Bei's death. At that time, Jiaozhou Shi said that Yong raised troops against Shu, and Sun Quan also named Yongchang Taishou.

However, this rebellion was quickly quelled by Zhuge Liang, and then Zhuge Liang took advantage of the victory to pursue and defeat the Nanban Mengshu, and finally completely pacified Nanzhong.

For Adou, now it's just a repetition of this history, there are still a few rebels, but the time of the rebellion is a little earlier, and the work that should have been done by Zhuge Liang is pressed on Adou's body.

Zhuge Liang's conquest of Nanzhong, pacified Meng Shu, on the whole was very successful, a battle down, not only subdued Meng Shu, completely solved the problem of the Southern Barbarians that had plagued him for many years, and solved the worries for the later Northern Expedition of Shu, but also got a large number of soldiers, formed a Wudang Fei Army, which was mainly composed of barbarians, and made a significant contribution to the middle and late stages of Shu.

Although the Southern Barbarians are brave and good at fighting, their equipment and training are much worse than those of the Shu army, and the command level of the Southern Barbarian generals cannot be compared with the generals of the Shu army. Therefore, in a frontal battle, the Nanban, who lacked equipment, was definitely not the opponent of the Shu army. However, the terrain of the barbarian land is complex, there are many snakes and insects and poisonous miasma in the rainforest, coupled with the hot climate, it is easy for the Shu army to go deep into the barbarian land and not adapt to the water and soil

These are the advantages of Nanban.

Because of the restrictions of the terrain, it will be very inconvenient for the army to go deep into the supply of grain and grass, plus the gap in combat effectiveness, so if you want to conquer the Nanban, you don't need to bring too many soldiers and horses. And there are still 30,000 troops in Chengdu City, which is enough for Adou. Adou only needs to follow the script set by Zhuge Liang that he knows.

……

Chengdu, General Zuo's Great Sima Mansion.

Although Zhuge Liang is no longer a military general, but a prime minister, the location of Zhuge Liang's office is still called General Zuo's Great Sima Mansion, which is also the central nerve of the entire Shu Kingdom, and almost all government decrees go out from here.

Zhuge Liang is not Cao Cao, and naturally it is impossible to open a mansion alone like Cao Cao, so after Liu Bei ascended the throne, although his courtiers were all promoted, the name of the Zuo General Da Sima Mansion still did not change, and the important members of it were still those, but the official ranks were all promoted.

Liu Bei, whether it is literature or martial arts, can only be regarded as sparse and ordinary, and Liu Bei is also very self-aware, and he is willing to give power to General Zuo's Mansion on weekdays, so in Shuzhong, the authority of General Zuo's Mansion is second only to Emperor Liu Bei.

Liu Bei went on a northern expedition to Yongzhou and took away Pang and Zhuge Liang, but for the normal operation of the country, there were still many people left in General Zuo's Mansion, and now Zhang Song and Li Yan were in charge of General Zuo's Mansion, and others such as Ma Liang, Jiang Wan, Dong Zhao, Huang Quan and others assisted in the left and right.

In the hall, Li Yanbu walked back and forth.

"I said square, don't go back and forth, you're dizzy!" Next to him, Zhang Song said.

"Brother Yongnian, I'm in a hurry! These counties are rebelling, and now they are attacking Zhuti, the gateway to the south of Chengdu, and if it is captured by the rebels, Chengdu will be dangerous! Li Yan replied.

"Zhengxiu is in a hurry, and Li Hui is in Zhuti."

"Li Deang is talented, but he has a few soldiers in his hands, I'm afraid it will be difficult to support it for too long! We still have 30,000 troops in Chengdu, as long as we can support Li Hui in time, we will definitely be able to keep Zhu Ti from losing, but the power to transfer troops is in the hands of the prince, and now the prince is not there, hey......" Li Yan sighed.

"Didn't we already send someone to Yong'an to find the prince? It is estimated that in another three or four days, I will be able to come back. Zhang Song said.

Kuaima wants Yong'an from Chengdu, but it takes a lot of time, so Zhang Song calculated according to the time that Adou would need three or four days to come back.

And at this moment, a long voice came from outside: "The prince has arrived in ......"

Zhang Song was startled, and finally muttered: "Why did the prince come so quickly!" ”

……

Zhang Song didn't know that Adou came day and night, so he had to arrive in Chengdu earlier than expected.

Looking at Li Hui's distress letter back, Adou frowned: "Why did the Wuxi barbarians also get involved?" ”

In Adou's impression, Yong, Zhu and Gaoding rebelled, and there was nothing wrong with the Wuxi barbarians, and Adou always thought that the Wuxi barbarians were on the side of Shu, and during the Battle of Yiling, the Wuxi barbarian king Shamoke also helped Liu Bei kill Gan Ning.

Adou thought about it carefully, and remembered that the reason why the Wuxi barbarians went to help Liu Bei was through Ma Liang's lobbying. And Liu Bei also said that the relationship between the Ma family and the Wuxi barbarians was very good, and now it is better to let Ma Liang persuade the Wuxi barbarians, and finally you can take him for your own use. Thinking of this, Adou opened his mouth and said, "Immediately call Ma Liang to come over!" ”

Soon, Ma Liang was called.

Ma Liang is only thirty-six years old this year, and he is quite handsome, but Ma Liang's eyebrows are white, which is quite conspicuous.

After seeing Adou, Ma Liang opened his mouth and asked, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince called down, but for the sake of the Wuxi barbarians?" ”

Adou nodded, people say that Ma's five constants, white eyebrows are the best, and sure enough, it is true, I didn't expect Ma Liang to guess the intention of handing him over.

Adou nodded and asked, "Master Ma, I heard that you have a good relationship with the Wuxi barbarians, I want you to persuade the Wuxi barbarians, I don't know if you are sure?" ”

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't worry, I will leave for Wuxi tomorrow to find Shamoke, the barbarian king of Wuxi, and persuade him to withdraw his troops." Ma Liang spoke.

"Then this matter will bother Lord Raoma. But it's not enough to just retire. You go and tell Shamoke that as long as he is willing to surrender to me, I will make him a former general, and allow him to move the Wuxi barbarians to live in my Yizhou. Adou said.

Ma Liang raised his eyebrows, and secretly said in his heart, this time His Royal Highness the Prince's capital is big enough. The so-called former general is just a false title, but the relocation of the Wuxi barbarians to Yizhou is a big pie for Shamoke.

For a long time, the people of the Central Plains looked down on the so-called barbarian people, and because of the lack of technology, the barbarians had low productivity, and most of them were in a state of barbarism, and their living standards were extremely low. For these barbarians, being able to live a farming life like the Han people without being harassed by wild beasts is already the greatest pursuit in this life.

However, the Han people think that they are not of our race, and their hearts must be different, and they refuse to accept these barbarians. China's first ethnic integration was during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, so the Han people in the Three Kingdoms era could not accept these so-called foreign people in their hearts, especially for the barbarians and Shanyue, the Han people always had a trace of contempt and disdain for them in their hearts. And now, Adou is willing to accept these barbarians, which is great news for the Wuxi barbarians.

……

After Ma Liang left, Li Yan immediately said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, now Yong, Zhu Bao and Gao Ding have rebelled and gathered hundreds of thousands, Lord Li Hui is trapped in Zhu Ti, I am afraid it will not last long, Zhu Ti is the gateway to the south of my Chengdu, and it must not be lost, and the minister thinks that he should immediately send troops to Zhu Ti to support Lord Li Hui." ”

"That's a good point. Master Li, how much grain and grass do we have in Chengdu now? Adou's voice changed and he asked.

Li Yan thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty's Northern Expedition took away a lot of grain and grass from Chengdu, but now Chengdu's granary is still full. ”

"Maybe it will support my 100,000-strong army to conquer Meng in the south?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to conquer Meng in the south?" Meng Da's eyes widened and he asked incredulously.

"Yes, now it's just taking this opportunity to fight in the South Barbarians and solve Meng Huo's worries." Adou said.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, there are only 30,000 people in Chengdu City, and even if you add Zhu Ti's county soldiers, it is only more than 40,000. And Yong, Zhu and Gaoding still have more than 100,000 people in their hands. I'm afraid there are no less than 100,000 people in the Nanban, how can we fight? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must think twice! ”

"Master Li is right, so we really only have 100,000 people

As long as we surrender the rebels of Gaoding, we will not have soldiers and horses. Dao.

Zhang Song is a smart man, and when he heard Adou say this, he immediately asked, "Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have a plan?" ”

"Now the rebels of Yong, Zhu and Gaoding seem to be powerful, but the three of them have never been able to trust each other, so we only need to use a divisive strategy to divide the three, this rebel army will inevitably be self-defeating, if it is operated properly, maybe we can also deceive these rebels for my use."

Zhang Song nodded, A Doushu Dou E is very reasonable. Especially that Gao Ding, who was originally the king of Yueyi, did not have too deep contacts with Yong and Zhu. As long as you can make heavy profits to Gaoding, you will really be able to win Gaoding over.

However, Zhang Song still said: "In this way, it is difficult for Yong and other rebellious ministers and thieves to become a climate, but the roads in this southern barbarian land are blocked, the terrain is complex, and there are many poisonous insects, snakes and ants, so it is difficult to march. And the south is a barren land, this miasma township, it doesn't make much sense to take the army, the southern expedition to Meng's acquisition is a matter of great importance, the minister thinks that this matter should be considered from the long-term, don't be too anxious. ”

Listening to Zhang Song's meaning, he did not support the southern expedition to Meng.

"Lord Taiwei, the so-called army and strategy, the second southern expedition to Meng, I am not ready to lead too many soldiers and horses, forty or fifty thousand people are enough. However, this battle is not to exterminate Meng Huo, this southern barbarian self-holding mountain and high ground is far away, and he has not obeyed the king for a long time, and he will break it today and rebel tomorrow, so this battle is to attack the city and attack the heart to the top. Adou explained.

"Heart-attacking?" Zhang Song's eyes curled, and he immediately understood Adou's thoughts, and then Zhang Song's face hung a trace of relief and excitement.

At this time, Zhang Song had fully understood that Adou was taking this opportunity to convince Nanban and solve Nanban's problem once and for all.

If ordinary people have this fight, Zhang Song may feel disdainful, but Adou is different, thinking about Adou's proud achievements in the past, Zhang Song doesn't think Adou is talking big. Since Adou dares to say this, it must not be untargeted.

Zhang and Li Yan glanced at each other, and at this time, both of them saw a trace of expectation in each other's eyes.

It stands to reason that Liu Bei is on the Northern Expedition today, and Adou is taking advantage of this time to go south, it is definitely not a good choice, and the Shu army will fall into a two-front battle. However, if it is only 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers and horses, with the grain and grass in Chengdu, it can still be supplied.

Adou has already created many miracles, and at this time, both Zhang Song and Li Yan are looking forward to Adou being able to create another miracle. In the case of a two-front battle, the old intention has been to solve the Nanban.

……

Although Liu Bei went out on an expedition to take away several major generals, there was still no shortage of powerful generals in Chengdu.

Adou led an army of 30,000 to support Juti and Li Hui. At the same time, there were also Guan Suo, Guan Xing, Zhang Bao, Xiang Chong, Huang Quan, Ma Yu, Fu Tong and others who went with the army, and at the same time, Adou ordered Li Yan to be responsible for the allocation of grain and grass.

These 30,000 horses are all elite soldiers in Shu. At the beginning, Liu Bei deliberately left it for Adou during the Northern Expedition. Let Adou deal with some urgent situations, even if an enemy raids the city of Chengdu, 30,000 people can still defend the last year, and now it happens to be used to conquer Meng in the south.

……

Juti.

The first to arrive at Zhuti were the 20,000 people from Zhu Bao's headquarters.

After Zhu Bao arrived at Zhu Ti, he did not eagerly attack, but continued to wait, after all, there are now more than 10,000 county soldiers under Li Hui, and with his own 20,000 people, it is not cost-effective to attack.

A few days later, Gao Ding also came to Juti.

Gao Ding, as the king of Yueyi, had many soldiers under his command, and now Gao Ding has brought more than 70,000 people to attack Zhuti. Most of these 70,000 people are Yueyi people, so the level of equipment and training is not high. No matter what is good, these Yi people have lived in a wild land since they were children, and they are used to being brave and ruthless, although the equipment is average, but it is definitely not to be underestimated.

Yongcong Yongchang soldiers, the farthest from Zhu Ti, so the last to arrive.

Yongchang is the largest county in Nanzhong, but most of the population is barbarians, these barbarians only listen to Meng Shu's words on weekdays, and Yong cannot be mobilized, so now Yong only brought 50,000 people here.

However, the 50,000 people in Yong have all undergone some training, and the Yong family can gain a foothold in Yongchang because of the 50,000 horses under his command. Although these 50,000 people are fully equipped, they can be regarded as a powerful combat force in this south.

Shamoke's 30,000 Wuxi barbarian army was the last to arrive. This Shamoke was invited by Zhu, Zhu is too guarded, and it is close to Wuxi, so Zhu can invite Shamoke.

Speaking of which, Shamoke arrived a little later than expected, and Shamoke also brought a Han scribe with him, who was said to be a newly invited Han military advisor by Shamoke, who was very talented. However, the appearance of this Han military advisor is a little strange, that is, this person has no eyebrows.

When Shamoke arrived at Zhuti, Yong and the others had already attacked several times, but they were all blocked by Li Hui with difficulty.

As Adou said, Yong and the others are not united. When the three of them get together, they will naturally think about choosing one person as the leader of the alliance, just like when the princes of the Eighteenth Route crusaded against Dong Zhuo, and chose Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance.

Among the three, Gao Ding has the most people in his hands and the strongest strength, so he naturally wants to be the leader of this alliance; And Yong thought that this uprising was advocated by himself, so he should make himself the leader of the alliance. Yong and Zhu are good friends, and they are not familiar with Gao Ding, so Zhu Bao will naturally help Yong.

In this way, the ratio is two to one, Gao Ding has the upper hand, but Gao Ding is the king of Yueyi, the overlord of one side, where will he be subservient, and Gao Ding has 70,000 people, and Yong and Zhu add up to 70,000 people, which is as much as Gao Ding, so Gao Ding thinks that his right to speak should be the same as that of Yong and Zhu combined.

Several people argued, and finally had to take a step back, and no one should be the leader of the alliance.

Then, the three of them discussed for a long time and decided that the three of them would divide into two groups to attack the city, Gaoding for one day and Yonghe and Zhu for one day, alternately.

However, the three of them each have their own ghosts, and they all want to retain their strength and let others consume it, so when they really attacked the city, no one tried their best. As a result, the three of them attacked for more than a month, and even climbed the city only a handful of times.

In the city, Li Hui listened to Wang Yan's strategy and took advantage of the night to carry out a surprise attack, but achieved great results, killed thousands of people, and returned to the city victoriously.

It was in this context that Shamoko reached Juti.

This chapter is more than 6,000 words, and I will continue to go to the 6,000-word chapter tomorrow and ask you for a few monthly passes. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next.) More chapters, support &UC e-book&! )
