Chapter 328: Zhou Yu Uses Soldiers
In June of the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Sun Quan sent an envoy to Liu Bei in Hanzhong, agreeing to send his sister Sun Shangxiang to Hanzhong, but Liu Bei needed to go to Jiaozhou to marry in person. (Pinyin for biqi u)
This is a joke for Liu Bei.
Liu Bei fled several times, which time did he take care of his wife.
When Xuzhou Xiaopei was attacked, he abandoned his wife Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Elk and fled to Yuan Shao alone.
If it weren't for the fact that the situation was different from history, Liu Bei would have lost Xiangyang once, and then lost his wife and children, but fortunately, Zhao Yun was able to rescue his wife and children because of his seven entry and seven exits.
Liu Bei has a saying, called "Brothers are like siblings, women are like clothes", which has educated many men in later generations.
Will Liu Bei go thousands of miles to Jiaozhou for a piece of clothing, risking his life?
Apparently impossible.
Kong Ming said: "The lord can temporarily agree to this matter, but on the grounds that Hanzhong is preparing to cut down Shu, he temporarily delayed it, and asked Sun Quan to send troops first." Sun Quan sent troops to Yizhou, the road is far away, the road is not passable, it takes a lot of twists and turns, once the troops arrive, they must not withdraw at will, and the lord will not send troops at that time. However, Sun Quan's fierce generals and ministers are a lot, and when there is a confrontation in Shu, or when he is defeated, the lord can ask himself to lead his troops and horses into Shu to rescue, and Liu Zhang will follow. Taking this opportunity, the lord can get the land of Shuzhong. Sun Quan has no foundation in Shu, and its land is by no means as good as the lord, and the lord will give it with grace and power, and over time he will be able to get Shuzhong! ”
Listening to Kong Ming's words, Liu Bei was suddenly overjoyed, such a plan, how could it be unreasonable in Shuzhong, so he followed Kong Ming's plan, temporarily agreed to Sun Quan's marriage, and asked Sun Quan to send troops, and he would also mobilize troops and horses in Hanzhong and go south at any time.
Sun Quan's envoy did not doubt him, and received the mission to Jiaozhou.
In August, Sun Quan took Zhou Yu as the governor and led his troops from Jiaozhou, followed the river to the northwest of Jiaozhou, and went up to Yizhou Qiqi County.
At this time, Jiaozhou's shipbuilding industry was extremely developed, and large and small ships were learning technology from the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce and purchasing components, but Yang Xi did not hide anything.
In half a month, Sun Quan's army marched west from Yulin County (Liuzhou, Guangxi) along the river (Pearl River) to the Qiqi River (one of the sources of the Pearl River) in Yizhou.
More than 1,000 ships set out to carry grain and grass, which delayed a lot of time, otherwise Zhou Yu might have been faster.
The Jiaozhou railway, with Yulin County as the center, passes through Cangwu in the east, reaches Nanhai County (Guangzhou), and reaches the south hundred miles of Longbian City in Jiaozhi County in the west (Hanoi, Vietnam), and the transportation of grain and grass is very convenient.
Sun Quan took Lu Su as the rear army and the governor of grain and grass, and prepared to fight a protracted and protracted battle.
And Yang Xi promised that if he could get the county, Yang Xi would give a railroad track, and provide gunpowder and a technical team to blow up the mountain and open the road. The railroad tracks go straight from Longbian to Tai County in Central and South Prefecture.
Sun Quan didn't know why Yang Xi gave so much support to his Yizhou, and he gave such a big gift without receiving a penny.
If you don't take the benefits, Sun Quan is not this kind of person, so an agreement was reached, and Sun Quan was even more confident.
In fact, Yang Xi had already regarded the land occupied by Sun Quan as his own territory in his heart, and he was relieved to repair the railroad tracks as soon as possible.
If you want to get rich, build roads first.
However, it was said that Liu Zhang heard that Sun Quan actually sent troops from Jiaozhou and went north to attack Yizhou, making such a big joke, he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and he didn't need to discuss, so he directly ordered the generals Deng Xian and Ling Bao to come to Qiqi County.
Deng Xian and Ling Bao went to Qiqi, and when they arrived in Jilan County, six of the seventeen counties of Qiqi had been lost.
The two of them were stationed in Jilan County and began to wait for Zhou Yu to attack, but Zhou Yu did not come, and only took other county seats.
So the two discussed, and Ling Bao led the army out of Jilan to block the soldiers and horses from all walks of life.
How do you know that all this is an illusion made by Zhou Yu, and the purpose is to lead the two of them out of the county to govern and Lan County. Ling Bao had already been scouted clearly by Zhou Yu's flying ball, but he didn't know it.
Ling Bao's army marched to the mountain road, was ambushed by Zhou Yu and led the four-way army, Ling Bao was frightened, clashed left and right, met the veteran Huang Gai, fought more than 30 times, was whipped off the horse by Huang Gai's heavy whip, and the horse's hooves broke his chest and died.
Liu Zhang did not find out the truth of Zhou Yu at all, Zhou Yu sent 80,000 troops, although more than 30,000 were responsible for the dispatch of grain and grass, but there were also 50,000 soldiers who could fight. He Liu Zhang sent 30,000 troops, and he wanted to kill Zhou Yu, which is equivalent to a fantasy.
30,000 soldiers and horses, and 10,000 with Deng Xian guarding Helan, did not receive the news of Ling Bao's death at this moment.
Zhou Yu ordered Lingbao to surrender troops to open the gate of Deng Xian, the army easily entered the city, and killed the general Deng Xian, and the Yu counties of Qiqi County surrendered one after another, Zhou Yu took Qiqi County on the 20th, shaking Shuzhong.
In this battle, Zhou Yu had to surrender 20,000 troops, and for a while, he began to seek to take Qianqian as a vassal country in the west, and went over the mountains and mountains to the east, and after hundreds of miles it was Lingling County, but he did not dare to move.
And there are mountains in between, unless you fly over.
Zhou Yu didn't dare to go north directly to take Ba County. Ba County is not easy to take or say, and it is too far away from its own grain and grass collection and transportation base on the Qiqi River.
Zhou Yu didn't want to be cut off by himself.
Qianwei has few small cities in the country, and Zhou Yu soon took Zhuti and Hanyang counties.
Liu Zhang couldn't sit still this time, so he hurriedly raised the account and asked Ji Wenwu.
Under the account, Li Yan and Zhang Ren were listed at the same time, willing to be generals, and led the army to attack Zhou Yu, but Liu Zhang could not decide.
Liu Zhang thought about it again and again, but still felt that Zhang Ren should fight.
Zhang Ren is a native of Shu County, Yizhou, a local force, and more trustworthy.
Li Yan is a native of Nanyang, Jingzhou, and Liu Zhang is still a little mustard.
Li Yan was a full-time official in Nanyang County when he was young and was known for his talents. Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao asked him to serve in the counties in the county.
When Cao Cao entered Jingzhou, Li Yanzheng was the commander of Zigui County, which was the westernmost county in Jingzhou South County, close to Bashu, and was the place where the Yangtze River entered Bashu.
Li Yan didn't want to surrender to Cao Cao, so he went west to Shu, Liu Zhang used him as the county commander of Chengdu, and gained a reputation for being capable, and Zigui was also included in the territory of Bashu at this time.
But Li Yan himself knows that the local concept of Bashu is serious, and it is extremely difficult to take root in a short period of time.
But Zhang Ren went to war, and Li Yan did not object. Zhang Ren was born in a poor family, but he was bold and brave since he was a child, and he was ambitious.
When Zhang Ren went out to travel, he once worshiped the martial arts master Tong Yuan, and cultivated a hundred birds to the phoenix spear, and the people of Shu gave him the title of "gun ancestor". His younger brother Zhang Xiu was beheaded by Yang Xizhen and was called the "Gun King of the North". The little junior brother Zhao Yun is now under Liu Bei's account.
Zhang Ren's current official Ren Yizhou is engaged in it, and his position is far above Li Yan, and Li Yan will not be dissatisfied.
Liu Zhang chose Zhang Ren, but he didn't drive Zhang Song and said: "Zhou Yu has no last resort, how can he use a county to fight against Jiangxia Yang Xi." And its soldiers and horses are 70,000 or 80,000, and I have to surrender 20,000 troops, how can it be easy to fight with an army of 100,000? Although General Zhang is brave today, after all, I only have 80,000 soldiers and horses left in Yizhou, and I want to leave 30,000 soldiers and horses to stay in Chengdu and Ba County, but 50,000 soldiers and horses may not be able to win. ”
Liu Zhang was said to have no opinion, and it was really undecided, Zhang Song said again: "Now Liu Bei in Hanzhong is a territory of Yizhou, and there is a war in Chengdu today, but why can't he contribute together, don't you know the reason why your lips are dead and your teeth are cold?" ”
Liu Zhang heard Zhang Song say this, and felt that it really made sense, this Liu Bei had tens of thousands of troops, not to mention ordering him to send troops, at least he could ask him to send 20,000 or 30,000 troops to solve the urgent need.
Zhang Ren spoke out again to advise Liu Zhang: "Liu Bei is a hero, but don't let him easily enter Shu." ”
Liu Zhang didn't listen, thinking that Liu Bei was benevolent and righteous, and he would not live up to himself, so he ordered someone to send a letter to Hanzhong.
Liu Zhang didn't know that Zhang Song was a friend of Fa Zheng, and Fa Zheng Huai was not satisfied, and he was slandered by the people in the state, and he was very distressed, Zhang Song also felt that Liu Zhang was not a person who could achieve great things, and often felt his own experience.
It happened that Sun Qian in Hanzhong befriended Fa Zheng, and Fa Zheng guided Sun Gan to make friends with Zhang Song, and Zhang Song and Fa Zheng decided to secretly welcome Liu Bei.
