Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Brotherly Wall
As Zhou Yafu expected, blocking the food supply channels of the Wu-Chu coalition army, the Wu-Chu coalition army gradually ran out of food, and had to take the initiative to challenge Zhou Yafu's counterinsurgency army.
Zhou Yafu ordered the whole army to defend and not to fight, dragging down the rebels. After all, Wu Chu is a local government, and he is alone in the depths, and the logistics support cannot keep up, so he has become a turtle in the urn. The counterinsurgency army has the backing of the imperial court and is not afraid of a protracted war.
Now understand that General Heng's strategy is correct! If the Wu-Chu coalition forces want to win, they must not fall into the quagmire of a protracted war, not be limited to the gains and losses of one city or one place, and quickly seize Luoyang, a strategic place, and Aocang, the granary of the world. If this strategy is followed, even if the rebellion cannot be successful, at least the toss will take a little longer.
The truth is often in the hands of a few! Liu Bi regretted it too late.
The front car is covered, and the rear car is ringed. Zhu Di, the king of Yan in the Ming Dynasty, rebelled and was blocked by the imperial army in Shandong for three months. Zhu Di bypassed Shandong, marched south, took Nanjing, completed the beheading operation, and the rebellion was successful. As the saying goes, the successful ones stand on the shoulders of their predecessors!
。
Three rebel forces, the Wu-Chu coalition army was trapped in Liangdi by Zhou Yafu, and Liu Sui, the king of Zhao, was blocked in Handan City by Qu Zhou Houli, and the Hun army that had made an appointment saw that the situation was not right, and did not go south to help, and several princes and kings of the Qi royal family were even more embarrassed, and the imperial army did not arrive, so they first staged a farce of brothers and sisters!
Liu Jianglu, the king of Qi, originally promised his younger brothers to participate in the rebellion. When Liu Wei, the king of Jiaoxi, and others really raised troops, Liu Jianglu hesitated and did not act.
Jiaoxi King Liu Wei has always been strong, and scolded the fourth brother Liu Jiang for not being authentic and daring to deceive his younger brothers. Regardless of whether Liu Wei raised troops to create a rebellion against the imperial court, he must first settle the inside first, and then destroy Liu Jianglu first. Liu Wei led Liu Xiongqu, the king of Jiaodong, Liu Xian, the king of Suchuan, and Liu Piguang, the king of Jinan, to attack the state of Qi and trapped Liu Jianglu, the king of Qi, in Linzi City.
Liu Zhi, the king of Jibei, also promised his eighth brother Liu Wei to raise troops together. The officials of Jibei Kingdom collectively opposed, seized military power, and set Liu Zhi up, and Jibei Kingdom did not follow the rebellion. With the King of Qi in the way, the four younger brothers didn't care about the trouble with Liu Zhi, and finally the rebellion failed, and Emperor Liu Qi pardoned Liu Zhi. Liu Zhi was blessed by misfortune and became the only one of the six brothers to survive.
Liu Jianglu, the king of Qi, insisted on Linzi and sent a doctor surnamed Lu to Chang'an to report the situation to Liu Qi. Liu Jianglu used the right person, it was this doctor in the road who saved the country of Qi!
Liu Qi asked Doctor Lu Zhong to return to Linzi and gave a message to the King of Qi, "Defend the city well, the imperial court has defeated the Wu Chu rebels!" ”
The doctor returned to Linzi City and found that he couldn't get in, and the three layers inside and the three layers outside were surrounded by rebels. Unfortunately, Dr. Lu was captured by the rebels.
At this time, Liu Jianglu, the king of Qi, couldn't withstand the pressure, and was already negotiating with several younger brothers, planning to surrender, and had not yet signed a written agreement.
The rebels forced Dr. Lu Zhong to defect and asked him to report a false letter, "The imperial court has been defeated by the Wu-Chu coalition army. Qi surrendered quickly, otherwise Linzi would be slaughtered. ”
Dr. Lu Zhong agreed. He was taken to the city by the rebels, and when he saw Liu General Lu on the city tower, he shouted at the top of his voice: "The imperial court has sent a million-strong army, led by the Taiwei Zhou Yafu, and has defeated the Wu-Chu coalition army!" The imperial army is coming soon, and the Qi State must hold on! ”
The rebels reacted and fell for it, and in a fit of rage, they stepped forward and hacked him to death.
Doctor Luzhong, this little man who did not leave a name, put life and death aside, and used his life to perform his duties, and his character will always be worthy of respect!
