Chapter 14: A Thousand Miles of Victory

In the first year of the first peace, in 190 A.D., the Central Plains fell into war, and the Taishou Gongsun Du of Liaodong thought that the Han family was about to be defeated, so he called himself the Marquis of Liaodong, and the state pastor, the line of Tiandi, the suburbs of heaven and earth and other gifts of the Son of Heaven, and divided Liaodong into Liaoxi, Liaojun in the middle, and placed Taishou by himself, and divided Liaodong. Gongsun Du is a native of Liaodong. Brave and easy to kill, he killed more than 100 wealthy families in the county, attacked Goguryeo in the east, attacked Wuhuan in the west, and threatened the coastal area of eastern Liaodong. After claiming to be the Marquis of Liaodong, Cao Ying once called him the general of Wuwei and the Marquis of Ningxiang. Gongsun Du put the seal ribbon in the arsenal and said, "My king Liaodong, He Yongning also." Then the generations were divided into Liaodong.

After Dong Zhuo saw that the allied forces of Zhulu had retreated, he soon ordered LΓΌ Bu to lead his troops out of Hangu, defeated Wang Kuang in Heyangjin, and soldiers in Hanoi.

In July, it was midsummer, the heat was unstoppable, Nanyang County guarded He Chen, first booby-trapped Wang Rui, the assassin of Jingzhou, and then cited the emperor's edict, passed on the eight counties, and led Jingzhou pastoral.

As soon as this list came out, Jingzhou shook.

Changsha Taishou Liu Dai and Huarong Changbei Rong supported the army and respected themselves, and disdained the list book; Nanjun is too guarded by Dong Hu, and Guiyang is too guarded by Zhao Ge, neither loud nor opposed, and the attitude is ambiguous; Only Wuling guarded Cao Yin, and Lingling guarded Yang Xuan to respond to He Chen and listen to his orders. However, due to the rebellion of thieves and bandits, the rampant clans, and the weakness of the Han family, the county guards sent by them were killed repeatedly, and they fell into chaos for a while, and it was even more difficult for Bangwen to enter their cities.

He Chen wrote a letter to Chang'an, analyzed the current situation in Jingzhou, and at the same time stepped up the training of soldiers and horses, and began to work on Jingzhou affairs.

The weight of the world is in Xiangyang. If Tu Nan County, this place is even more important. With the momentum of Xiangyang's high house, a bird's-eye view overlooking Jiangling, a horse and a flat river, at your fingertips. It's just that Xiangyang City is easy to defend and difficult to achieve, and there are tens of thousands of thieves and soldiers from Jiangxia Sun Hu and Chen Sheng. Moreover, the Xiangyang Shi family is rampant among them, whether it is the Cai family, the Kuai family, the Huang family, the Pang family, the Ma family, the Xiang family, etc., they form alliances and marriages with each other, although they continue to fight in private, but they can resist the outside world together in the overall situation. Although Sun Hu and Chen Sheng occupied Xiangyang, they had no way to deal with this contiguous scholar clan for a while. Later, at the suggestion of Xiangyang celebrities, the two parties temporarily negotiated together, and the situation can be described as extremely complicated.

And the first stop of He Chen's Jingzhou strategy is to set his sights on Xiangyang.

County capital.

Conference Hall.

Nanyang County is an important civil servant and military general, standing in a row.

He Chen was not wearing armor at this time, he was wearing a gorgeous silk robe, with a square scarf wrapped around his head, a ribbon around his waist, and a dragon-patterned jade pendant hanging in it. Dressed like this, it looks a little nondescript, and he looks like a reckless man, but he wears literati clothes, which makes the soldiers who are used to He Chen's rough and fierce temperament unable to accept it for a while, and they all want to laugh but dare not laugh, and the atmosphere is extremely weird.

He Chen probably also knew the thoughts of his subordinates, slapped his forehead, and said helplessly: "If you want to laugh, laugh." Honshu Mu is a rough man, and has always longed for the elegant, elegant posture of a literati who has read poetry and books. Hey, it's just that painting a tiger is not an anti-dog, and it is in vain to smile and be generous. ”

"Hahaha......" As soon as He Chen said this, the hall burst into laughter.

"Damn, you guys are really laughing so unscrupulously, and you don't care about the face of the state pastor at all? Beware of Honshu Mu's tugging out and kicking your ass one by one. He Chen's face was full of flesh, his face sank, and he threatened and intimidated like a fierce look.

"Hahaha......" burst into laughter again, and the sound was even better than before.

"Grandma's, next time I won't wear it again." He Chen casually ripped off the scarf above his head and said depressedly.

"State pastor, to be honest, this dress is really not suitable for you." Xun You couldn't hold back a smile, shaking his head as he spoke, and he was occasionally nervous about this state pastor, which really felt cute and ridiculous.

Looking at Xun You's gestures, he was sven and delicate, elegant and elegant, and the clouds were light and calm, He Chen couldn't help but be jealous, he was also a human being, could Lao Tzu be born and raised, otherwise why is the gap so big? He Chen hated and hated to give God a middle finger, and then diverted the topic and said: "To get back to the point, now Nanyang is politically harmonious, the people who have migrated here are diligent, the recruits are well-trained, and the treasury is gradually full. ”

Since they returned to the topic, everyone retracted the smile just now, and their faces were full of solemnity.

Under He Chen's gaze, although Guo Jia was young, he was calm and unhurried: "Judging from the current situation, Wuling is too protective of Cao Yin, and Lingling is too protective of Yang Xuan has sent someone to send documents, and is willing to be under the jurisdiction of the state pastor, which is a great help; Guiyang Taishou Zhao Ge is a smart person, and he once met the source left and right during the dispute between the party and the court to protect his surname. Seeing the chaos in the world, he volunteered to lead Jiaozhi Taishou, but it didn't succeed, and he retreated to Guiyang County Guard. Such moves are obviously to avoid the chaos in the Central Plains and seek peace. A person who understands expediency in this way, when the situation is not clear, must sit back and wait for the situation, and sell at the price, so there is nothing to worry about; And Nanjun Taishou Dong Hu is the county in the wang clan, although this person has ambitions, but there is no talent, once the public security was too punctual, was attacked by thieves and broke through the county, and fled in embarrassment, if it were not for the help of nobles in the court, I am afraid that I would have already sent three thousand miles to the border. Now that he is the Taishou of Nanjun, he must be worried about his status and reputation, and once Xiangyang is broken, it is estimated that his surrender letter will follow immediately. In this way, there are only Changsha, Jiangxia, and Xiangyang, and the lord has to spend a lot of time. ”

"If you look at the three counties from the topography, they are almost ringed on three sides, connected before and after, and communicate with each other. The south of Xiangyang shields Changsha, and the east protects the flank of Jiangxia, which is to rush the battle momentum and support the two counties. Changsha can be conquered in the south, Jiangxia can be drawn in the east, but these two counties are now chaotic, the government soldiers are weak, and the lord Tianwei arrives, plus the aid of Lingling and Wuling, it will inevitably fall to the wind. Now it seems that only Xiangyang is the focus of the target. As long as Xiangyang is broken, the eight counties can be bagged without much effort. ”

Guo Jia talked eloquently, and the generals nodded again and again. The intertwined and intertwined forces of the eight counties of Jingzhou make people have nowhere to start, and in Guo Jia's analysis of the cocoon, the priorities are clear and organized. Although there is no long speech, it makes the trade-offs clear, and they can't help but surrender with joy and no objections.

Guo Jia seemed a little tired after talking a lot, and stood there quietly without speaking.

"What the military advisor said is too right, Sun Hu and Chen Sheng's thieves gathered and were vulnerable. The subordinates are willing to lead the troops to the battle, and they will not return if they do not break Xiangyang. Suddenly, a loud voice resounded in the chamber, and a burly general came out to ask for his life.

Everyone hurriedly looked at it, it was Ji Ling, the tooth keeper who He Chen had just promoted recently.

It is said that He Chen once inspected the military camp, and occasionally saw that when Ji Ling was in the army, he defeated dozens of big men in a row, and couldn't help but ask in surprise, and then learned that this person was the famous Ji Ling, so he unceremoniously made an exception and promoted him. In order to prevent the meritorious generals from being dissatisfied, he asked him to go head-to-head with the general Wenpin, and the two fought each other for hundreds of rounds without winning or losing, and all the generals were convinced.

When Ji Ling first arrived, he didn't know some of the reasons, and he wanted to make a contribution, so he immediately spoke out and asked for a fight.

He Chen was about to speak, but Xun Yu was holding three inches lightly, showing some fairy wind bones, and slowly came out to stop: "No, General Ji is a little restless." Xiangyang occupies the advantage of the topography, and the city is high and thick, and it is really a good strategy to send troops to attack. The state pastor has already made up his mind in his heart, and he will see when he turns back. ”

Yadi, this guy can be a god stick, He Chen despised it, and then nodded to Ji Ling and said: "General Ji is eager to fight, and Benzhou Mu knows." However, this matter has to be based on what Gongda said. ”

Ji Ling was a little disappointed and retreated.

He Chen continued: "Benzhou Mu has been thinking hard for a few days recently, just because there are many families in Xiangyang, and the clan is prevalent, once the thieves are surrendered, I am afraid that they will be enemies of the family. When the time comes, the swords and soldiers will meet each other and tear them apart, even if they win, I am afraid that the Xiangyang clan will be difficult to return to their hearts, and it is not conducive to control, unless they can all be killed, but in this way, the Jingzhou clan, who would dare to take refuge in anyone? ”

Everyone couldn't help but nod their heads again and again, although He Chen accompanied the He family to the throne, but in the final analysis, he was born in Buyi, and there were many gaps with the wealthy family, otherwise he would not have coerced the edge of the army to win and beat the Nanyang Wang clan. It was only after seeing the real power of the family that he changed to appease and woo, hoping to calm the hearts of the Wang family. With the lessons of the past, when Xiangyang is strategic, there is an extra layer of consideration, and people have to sigh that under the rough appearance of the state pastor, the ideological wisdom that keeps absorbing and progressing.

"Hehe, the so-called state pastor is very reasonable, and the lower officials have a strategy to drive the wolf and devour the tiger, I don't know if you want to hear it?" Guo Jia, who was silent for a while, finally spoke up.

"If there is any good plan, the military advisor will talk about it quickly." He Chen shook his head and said hurriedly.

"The state pastor can go to the court, say that Xiangyang is chaotic, and he can plan to seal the prestige and loudness of the big surnames in the city, and he is the official marquis. Then let them lead the private soldiers to settle the sentence. If he obeys, he will inevitably gather people, contact Haoqiang, increase his armament, and then fight with Sun Hu and Chen Sheng; If he does not obey, or if he violates the yin and yang, the lord will become famous, and in turn promise Sun Hu and Chen Sheng heavy profits, lure them to high-ranking officials, and let them be the vanguard troops, and catch and tear each other with the family family. No matter which aspect, the forces of the two sides will be greatly weakened, and when the time comes, the lord will enter Xiangyang strongly, and it will be easy to sort out the people who are not going well. If Xiangyang is determined, no matter which side wins, it can then be arranged to defend Jiangxia and Changsha and launch a new round of blood. ”
