Chapter 663: Thirty-six Strategies Go Up

Yuannan, one of the twelve counties of Wuling, adjacent to the south of Yuanshui, hence the name Yuannan. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
This is also the southernmost county seat of Wuling County. If Wuling takes Yuanshui as the state boundary, then Yuannan is the bridgehead of Wuling County in the south. Now, among the twelve counties of Wuling, Cao Cao only has six counties, namely Xiaoling, Zuotang, Lingyang, Hanshou, Linyuan and Yuannan. The remaining six counties were captured by Liu Bei. However, Chongxian, Qianling, Youyang, Chenyang, Rongcheng and Yuanling are mostly located in the southwest of Wuling, adjacent to Lingling. The combined population of these six counties is less than 200,000. It is located in the southernmost part of the country, with only a population of more than 20,000...... The vast land, the mountains, and the mountain barbarians that inhabit the mountains are the general situation of the southwest of Wuling.
Liu Bei bought Wuxi Man and stabilized the southwest of Wuling.
However, Wuxi Man is only in the southwest of Wuling, and among the many mountain people, the stronger one cannot completely replace the entire southwest Wuling mountain people. Therefore, after Liu Bei occupied the eleven counties of Changsha, he did not pay much attention to the six counties southwest of Wuling.
In addition to Chongxian and Yuanling, Qianling, Youyang, Chenyang and Rongcheng not only did not garrison soldiers and horses, but even concentrated the population of Rongcheng and Chenyang on a large scale and concentrated them in the four southwestern counties. It can be said that after gaining control of Changsha, Liu Bei began to work on this matter. Surrender Rongcheng and Chenyang to alleviate the contradictions of the mountain people to the greatest extent and obtain the support of more mountain people and barbarians.
In this regard, Zhuge Liang is also quite in favor!
He certainly knew that this would be detrimental in the future.
But in the face of Cao Cao's army pressing, Liu Bei did this, which was also a helpless move.
It's just that in this way, it has also caused Chenyang and Rongcheng counties, and nearly three-thirds of the people have left their homes and thrown into the deep mountains and become local mountain people.
But most people still obeyed the order and moved to Qianling and Youyang.
On the eighth day of February in the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Cao Peng arrived in Yuannan.
The passers-by, as well as Lai Gong, the Taishou of Wuling County, and Pang De, Wei Yan, Wen Ping and Wang Wei, who obeyed Cao Peng's orders. Huang Zhong did not come over, but stayed in Hanshou and was responsible for supervising the establishment of the governor's mansion. And Xun Yu didn't come, although he had agreed with Cao Peng before that he would accompany the inspection. But the day after Cao Peng left Zuo Tang, he received Cao Cao's order to go to Jingling to discuss matters.
Although Xun Yu has the responsibility of supervising Jing Nan, he is the mastermind of Cao Cao's subordinates after all, and he needs to obey Cao Cao's dispatch.
As for Cao Peng, he also has a mastermind accompanying him.
Not to mention the resourcefulness of Fazheng, Pang Shanmin's steadiness, and Zhang Song's eloquence, which are enough to meet Cao Peng's current needs. When Jiang Wan arrived in Linyuan with Cao Peng, he was recommended by Cao Peng to Lai Gong. Don't underestimate this fellow countryman...... In fact, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the importance of this local sentiment was far from being comparable to the kind of villagers who saw their fellow villagers and stabbed them in the back. That's real intimacy!
Lai Gong's ancestral home is Lingling County, Lingling County, located in the southwest of Lingling.
And Jiang Wan is a native of Xiangxiang, located in the northeast of Lingling County, which is not too close. But after the two met, they were extremely affectionate.
Cao Peng recommended Jiang Wan to Lai Gong, which meant to make Jiang Wan a long history.
How do you know that Lai Gong didn't say a word, with Jiang Wan as the chief of Linyuan and Sima of Wuling. The three thousand soldiers and horses in his hands were all handed over to Jiang Wan to command...... On the one hand, it is the friendship of fellow villagers, and on the other hand, there is also the idea of showing Cao Peng's heart. Speaking of which, Lai Gong in history later surrendered to Liu Bei. Now because of Huang Zhong's words, he took refuge in Cao Cao. But in terms of faction, Lai Gong belongs to Cao Peng's faction.
This point was overlooked by Cao Peng!
The ancients had a saying that Lai Gong surrendered to Cao Cao because of Cao Peng, and to some extent, he already had the imprint of Cao Peng's lineage. If you take the liberty of changing the court, it may not be accepted. Moreover, Cao Peng also expressed his respect for Lai Gong very clearly. Otherwise, it stands to reason that although Lai Gong has a school of soldiers and horses, this school of soldiers and horses should belong to Cao Peng, the general of the Hengye military of Jingnan, and the subordinates of the tiger and leopard cavalry. Cao Peng did not collect the military power and released enough goodwill; So as Lai Gong, he will naturally express something. Jiang Wan's arrival is an excellent introduction. Lai Gong handed over the soldiers and horses to Jiang Wan, and no one said anything. After all, Jiang Wan is Lai Gong's fellow countryman, and there is this level of friendship with his fellow villagers, if Lai Gong doesn't believe Jiang Wan, who does he believe?
The problem is that Jiang Wan is Cao Peng's subordinate again.
In this way, Lai Gong is equivalent to releasing the military power in his hands and returning it to Cao Peng.
Cao Peng reciprocated the favor, and Cao Peng said that Lai Gong's opinion should be respected in government affairs, and although he supervised Jingnan, he would not interfere in Jingnan affairs.
Jingzhou affairs, Jing people's governance.
Cao Peng once again expressed his attitude to Lai Gong, and Lai Gong is also a native of Jingzhou, so he is naturally satisfied with Cao Peng's move......
"Ling Ming, from now on, Yuannan will be handed over to you!"
On the bank of the Yuanshui River, Cao Peng stood on the other side of the river, pointing to the other side of the river and saying: "I will order Gongyan to set up a village on the north bank to ensure the rear for you."
Ten days later, Bohou will be stationed in Dongting.
At that time, I will send Bohou to and fro the Yuanshui in boats, transport supplies, and defend the flanks for you, in case Liu Bei attacks from Yuanling. And your task is to attract Liu Bei's attention, at least the Yiyang soldiers and horses, and they will definitely hold me back. ā
Stationed in Yiyang is Liu Pan.
When Pang De heard this, he immediately bowed down on his horse and said: "But please rest assured, Dande is still breathing, and he will never let Yiyang send a single soldier." ā
Cao Peng nodded, turned the horse's head, and raised his eyes to look.
But in the distance, the mountains loomed and the mist was filled. Changsha County is still wild now, far from being the land of fish and rice in later generations.
After pondering for a moment, he suddenly asked, "Lai Taishou!" ā
"The Grand Governor."
"Under the rule of Wuling, there are many mountain people.
If you can't find a solution, it will be a big hidden danger after all. I know that Boqian is very talented, and I need to come up with a way to solve this matter earlier. If the troubles of the mountain people can be calmed, one can develop with peace of mind, and the other can also increase the population of Wuling. This is a major event related to the future of Jingnan, please be too guarded, and you can think more about it and solve it as soon as possible...... If he succeeds, he will ask for credit for Boqian in front of the prime minister one day. ā
Lai Gong was immediately overjoyed, "Don't worry, Gong will do his best to save the Governor from worries." ā
Cao Peng smiled as a sign of gratitude.
He rolled over and dismounted, and hiked up a mound on foot.
In his previous life, he had never been to Hunan, but now, he has experienced the most primitive Hunan style. The development of the two lakes was in the Wei and Jin dynasties of the north and south, and the large number of people who migrated at that time made up for the lack of population in the south, which created a situation in which the two lakes were full of talents in later generations.
Interested in a lake reclamation development?
The problem is that the population base of the two lakes is there, and there is no need for large-scale reclamation and development.
If we want to develop the two lakes, we can only move forward in a down-to-earth manner. Sun Quan's actions in Jiangdong opened up a train of thought for Cao Peng. The population of Jiangdong is also small, but after nearly a hundred years of conquest, it has been able to maintain a number similar to the population of the north.
Among them, of course, there is the Yangtze River moat, which makes the Jiangdong relatively few wars.
However, Sun Quan's large-scale expedition to Shanyue in Jiangdong and the capture of mountain people to fill the population was also an important reason why Jiangdong's population base could surpass that of Bashu later. Raiders of the mountains? and Cao Peng implemented the policy of buying and selling Qianghu as slaves in Hexi, which is similar to the same thing.
And the number of mountain people in the land of Jingchu is not necessarily sparser than that in Jiangdong.
The history of the development of any region or even a country is inevitably stained with a history of blood and tears.
Cao Peng didn't know whether he should make such a suggestion to Lai Gong. But this idea has been engraved into his mind......
At the right time, Cao Peng will make suggestions.
If Lai Gong can't carry it out, he won't mind, and suggests to Cao Cao that Lai Gong be removed and replaced with a Taishou with an iron wrist.
But for now, it's too early!
"Wen Chang!"
"The end will be."
Wei Yan hurriedly stepped forward.
Although in private, Cao Peng will respect Wei Yan's brother, but when there are many people, he will still maintain the majesty of General Yokono.
"When you're stationed in Zero Sun, there's one thing you need to pay attention to.
I remember that in the early years, when my brother led the Yiyang warriors, he often went deep into the barren mountains to fight against the mountain people? ā
"Exactly."
"Now, most of your soldiers are mainly swords and shields, and they need to be drilled from time to time."
When Wei Yan heard this, he hurriedly agreed.
Cao Peng's arrangement, to put it bluntly, was to ask Wei Yan to contain the Wuxi barbarians. When appropriate, it can be encircled and suppressed, or even completely eliminated. At the same time, he also bears the responsibility of preventing Chong County Chen. And Yidao's clerk will give appropriate support to assist Wei Yan and pacify the barbarian goods.
Wei Yan had 5,000 soldiers under his tent, of which 2,000 were sword and shield soldiers.
They are equipped with horizontal knives that have just been transported from the Heyi Workshop, which are most suitable for fighting against the mountain barbarians. Supplemented by fifteen hundred hookers and fifteen hundred archers, presumably not much of a problem. However, Cao Peng also knew that there would be a long-term battle with Shanman. Maybe two or three years, maybe five or six years, or even more. If this equipment can be adapted to mountain warfare, Cao Peng will make suggestions to Cao Cao to strengthen mountain drills. In other words, from now on, Wei Yanwen will stay in the Jingnan region for a long time. Cao Peng had already greeted Wei Yan in this regard, and Wei Yan also said that he was willing to obey orders.
Jingnan Eighth School?
Cao Peng walked down the hill and turned over to sit on horseback.
"Let's walk ahead and observe the terrain."
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Fuchun, Sun Mansion.
From the outside, the Sun Mansion seems to be a little dilapidated. However, as the place where the Sun clan of Jiangdong rose, the interior of this ancestral mansion is still quite gorgeous.
In the martial arts arena of the back house, a young man held a dragon spear, flying and dancing, and his strength was compelling.
On the side, several burly family members stood silently and solemnly, looking at the young man in the martial arts arena, but there was not much respect in their eyes, but a touch of disdain. With a loud shout, the boy put away the coiling dragon gun. He was drenched in sweat. Rest in place for a moment, put the gun back in the armory rack, and stride away. From beginning to end, the boy ignored the burly family.
It's like the disdain in the eyes of the family, and the teenager ignores their existence.
Several family members hurriedly followed, but saw the young man suddenly stop under the moon gate, turned around suddenly, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes: "What, do you want to follow me into the back house?" ā
The family showed embarrassment, and hurriedly said: "Childe misunderstood, I'm just ......"
"Humph!"
Before the family could finish speaking, the young man had already walked into the moon gate.
When the young man's figure disappeared completely, Jia Ding suddenly spat on the ground, "If it weren't for Wu Hou's care, how could you be arrogant." ā
"Third child, shut up!"
The family who seemed to be the leader said in a deep voice: "That's the eldest prince, the son of Wucheng Hou, and the nephew of the lord." How can you speak disrespectfully, if you are heard, you will inevitably provoke death. The lord let us live and protect, but he didn't let you complain here. As long as the eldest prince is in this mansion, why should you and I care about him a lot? It's not impossible to let him scold twice. ā
"Got it, brother!"
Several of the housekeepers turned to leave, and the leader glanced at the Moon Gate, but sighed softly.
He knew very well why the lord had sent them here. Although the boy was young, he had an extraordinary family background. The six counties of Jiangdong are the world of the Sun family, but they are not the rivers and mountains that the lord has beaten down. This is the country that Wucheng Hou Sun Bofu beat down, although now the lord has sat firmly in the seat, but the young man of the other party is still extremely jealous. Cause? It's very simple, just because this young man's son is the one who has a prominent reputation and is respected as the little overlord of Jiangdong, the former lord of Jiangdong, and the son of Sun Ce and Sun Bofu, Sun Shao.
Although Sun Ce is dead, his influence still exists.
Even after eight years, many people still remember Sun Bofu's majesty.
Those Jiangdong veterans, such as Cheng Puhan and Huang Gai, are not allowed to say more; The generals who followed Sun Ce to fight the world now have a pivotal position in Jiangdong. Needless to say, Zhou Yu was the governor of the Jiangdong Navy and Sun Shao's uncle. The rest, such as He Qi, Jiang Qin, and Tai Shici, are also important ministers of the Sun family and hold great power. Among the Wenchen, there are also many figures promoted by Sun Ce.
For example, Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong, which one was not Sun Ce's confidant back then?
Ask Zhang Zhao if you don't decide on internal affairs, and ask Zhou Yu if you don't decide on foreign affairs!
This was Sun Ce's advice before he died. But in fact, it is also to preserve the strength of his son Sun Shao. This is also Sun Quan's intention to send Zhou Yu to Chaisang, and at the same time vigorously recruit talents and promote Lu Su, Zhuge Jin and others. If Sun Shao grows up, who dares to say that Zhou Yu and those people will not support Sun Shao? As long as one person jumps out, more than half of the Koto courtiers will express their support.
Sun Quan, how can he be defenseless?
If this Sun Shao and Sun Gongzi are incompetent, then it's fine.
It's just that he has the ability to do it, and he has the style of a father. Some time ago, the veteran Cheng Pu came to visit, and after seeing Sun Shao, he couldn't help but burst into tears, and only said that Sun Shao looked like Sun Ce. However, this Sun Shao's martial arts are extraordinary, which makes Sun Quan even more worried.
Putting Sun Shao under house arrest in Fuchun was also a last resort.
If it was possible, Sun Quan wouldn't mind and killed Sun Shao to prevent future troubles. But Sun Shao's stepmother took great care of Sun Shao, and Wu Guotai favored him, so Sun Quan had no idea where to start. If Sun Shao is really killed, Sun Quan will also have to worry about Zhou Yu and Qi what these people think.
In desperation, he had no choice but to imprison Fuchun and leave him to fend for himself......
"Mother!"
When Sun Shao walked into the back house, he saw a beautiful woman embroidering in the garden. By the side of the beautiful woman, there are two little girls, who are Sun Shao's two younger sisters. The eldest daughter's name is Sun Yan, and the second daughter's name is Sun Li. Among them, the eldest daughter Sun Yan is the wife of Lu Xun in history. But now, Sun Yan is only ten years old, and he is still ignorant and does not know that people's hearts are sinister.
The beautiful woman is Sun Ce's concubine, Da Qiao.
Sun Ce's wife died early, leaving only Sun Shao's blood and bones. Sun Ce married Da Qiao, and before he could set Da Qiao up as the main room, he died. and the two daughters are the flesh and blood of Da Qiao and Sun Ce. Although Sun Shao is not Da Qiao's biological son, his respect for Da Qiao comes from the bottom of his heart. He knew that if it weren't for Da Qiao's desperate protection, maybe he would have become a dead man by now......
The year after Sun Ce's death, Sun Shao almost died.
Fortunately, the rescue was timely and his life was saved. The reason for this is that it is caused by poisoning...... Sun Quan said to the outside world that it was those who went against the party, and he also looked at more than a dozen heads for this. But Da Qiao knew in his heart that Sun Shao was in the Taishou Mansion and was heavily guarded. From the inside out, all of Sun Quan's people are poisoned, how can there be poisoning against the party? After that, Da Qiao found Wu Guotai and begged to return to Fuchun.
Coupled with the protection of Sun Shao's aunt Sun Ren, Sun Shao was able to grow up safely.
In this, Da Qiao has to put a lot of effort into it......
Da Qiao is only twenty-four or five years old, his appearance is extremely beautiful, and he looks dignified and virtuous.
She said gently: "Shao, have you finished practicing marksmanship?" ā
"Hmm!"
Sun Shao looked at the row of boxes on the porch, suddenly frowned, and asked softly, "Mother, where do these boxes come from?" ā
"Your uncle sent for it."
Da Qiao smiled and suddenly said, "By the way, your little aunt will come to visit today."
After a while, let someone prepare some food and drinks, and treat your little aunt in the evening...... As for these boxes...... Shao, maybe it won't be long before you can get out of here and be free. ā
"What?"
"Your uncle should marry you next, and he is the daughter of the prime minister.
Prime Minister Cao Cheng sent someone to propose marriage before, hoping to marry his daughter to you...... You're thirteen, and you're an adult...... Your uncle's meaning is to let you go to Xudu, and you can also seek fame when the time comes. I thought about it, instead of staying here, I might as well go and break through.
Xu Du's ......
After all, there is no fear of life. ā
As Da Qiao said, Sun Shao has grown up.
There are many things that he knows very well in his heart, but he just hasn't said it.
A few days ago, Cheng Pu came to visit and asked Sun Shao if he was 'doing well'. Sun Shao replied that it was very good, but in fact? In this ancestral house, he is only the nominal owner. Those subordinates were all sent by Sun Quan, saying that they were serving, but in fact they were secretly spying.
But he couldn't say it to Cheng Pu, because he knew that it was useless to say it.
Now I heard that Da Qiao said that he was going to leave here and go to Xudu...... Sun Shao was pleasantly surprised at first, but then his face showed a solemn look.
"Mother, I heard that Cao Cao's old son is a thief, why do you want to agree to the marriage?"
"Shao, whether Cao Cao is a good person or a bad person has nothing to do with you and me. In fact, how can this be so easy to tell? All I know is that if you can get out of here, you'll be much safer. If you stay here for a long time, I fear that one day, you will have to worry about your life. ā
"Mother, what about you and your sister?"
"We ......"
Da Qiao hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "It's you who got married, how can I leave with your two sisters?"
But rest assured, we're safe. Your uncle is still here, and after a while, when you leave, I plan to take your two younger sisters to move to Lujiang's hometown. Although Lujiang is now in turmoil, the family is still safe, and it is better than being here, without relatives. ā
Da Qiao's father, Qiao Guozhang, is still alive.
The Lujiang River is now divided into two, half of which belongs to Jiangdong and the other half to Cao Cao.
Today's Lujiang Taishou, named Dong Xi, is also Sun Quan's confidant. However, Dong Xi and Qiao Guozhang have a good relationship, and if Da Qiao takes his two daughters home to live, there will be no trouble. Gan Ning in Hefei has been very silent recently, and there has been no action. Therefore, the Lujiang River is relatively safe.
"Mother, I won't go to Xudu."
"Why?"
Sun Shao hesitated for a moment and said softly: "Mother can't you see your uncle's thoughts?" ā
"Oh?"
"Uncle wants to borrow a knife to kill people."
"What borrowed a knife to kill someone?"
Sun Shao said: "A few days ago, I read the "Thirty-six Strategies" annotated by Cao San, and one of the strategies is to kill people with a knife.
I stayed in Koto, although it was dangerous, but my uncle had some scruples after all.
But if I go to Xudu, I will be called a marriage, but I will actually be a proton. In the future, if anything happens, the child will die without a place to be buried. Uncle also took this opportunity to get rid of me without leaving any flaws. Besides, what will happen to my mother and two younger sisters as soon as I leave? Although the uncle is here, he is an uncle and a courtier after all...... In the past two years, he has rarely walked around with us, so how can he know that he will protect his mother? ā
"But if you don't agree, wouldn't it be more dangerous."
Da Qiao sighed softly, "Don't you understand your uncle's thoughts?"
If you stay in Jiangdong for one more day, he will be more jealous of you. Now he still has scruples, but once he finds an opportunity, he will never spare your life. When your father left, he asked me to take care of you. Over the years, although my mother has tried her best, the general trend is ...... The more secure your uncle's position is, the more murderous he will be towards you. Stay in Koto...... Shao, you have only one way to die! ā
"This is the country that my father brought down, why can't I stay here?"
"Because it was your father's inheritance, your uncle is even more uneasy......
Sun Shao was silent!
After a while, he suddenly spoke, "Mother, let's get out of here together." ā
"Huh?"
"Take my sister with you, let's leave together.
Even if the days outside are miserable, it is better than the taste of this caged bird...... Not to mention, there will be a fear for his life at any time, and the child really doesn't want to stay here. A few days ago, when I was reading "Thirty-six Strategies", I saw that there was a plan in it, called "Go for the Top".
The left time is not to blame, and it is not abnormal.
Since Jiangdong is not a place to live for a long time, why not find another way out?
You also said that the more stable my uncle's position is, the more jealous he is of me. In that case, let's get out of here, and with my martial arts, I will always have a place to stay. Mother, if you and your sister continue to stay in Jiangdong, sooner or later you will be designed by your uncle, why bother? ā
Sun Quan is definitely an unscrupulous master!
Mrs. Da Qiao is not unaware of this.
It's just that the world is so big, where can it be placed? Sun Shao was reluctant to go to Xudu, and wanted to leave with her mother and daughter, how easy was it to talk about......
"Shao, and today's chaos, where can our mother and son be accommodated."
Sun Shao was silent!
After a while, he said softly: "Mother, I have a place to go, and I am afraid that even if my uncle knows, he will not be able to do it...... I just don't know, does my mother want to go? ā
Da Qiao was stunned and hurriedly asked, "Where is that?" ā
Sun Shao smiled......
