The latest chapter of "The Three Kingdoms: Runan Chen Bozhi"...
In the Kuiguan Mansion, Chen Lin was sitting on his seat, listening to Gan Hu's report: "Lord, since waiting for the lord's secret letter, the last general has doubled the patrol force. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info sure enough, at noon the day before yesterday, there was a person who claimed to be Jiangzhou soldiers and horses, and he really wanted to deceive the end of the customs and return to Jiangzhou. Now this person has been imprisoned by the last general, and that night, a large army appeared in Kanto and Egami at the same time. However, the last general concluded that the soldiers and horses were not the soldiers and horses of the king of Chu, because the ships that appeared on the river were all small warships, not like the elite sailors of Jingzhou. Later, when the enemy saw that the gate was very well guarded, they slowly retreated. β
When Chen Lin heard this, he praised loudly: "Okay, the old general handled it properly, okay, why didn't the old general bring that person up, and King Gu personally tried it." When Gan Hu heard this, he immediately turned around: "Come on, bring that person up." After a while, I saw an adjutant general rushing over and nervously whispering to Gan Hu in his ear. Chen Lin frowned, and saw Gan Hu's shocked expression, and hurriedly said to Chen Lin: "Lord, that man committed suicide with a broken tongue." β
Chen Lin's face turned cold, and he said: "Old general, this person has been imprisoned for three days, sooner rather than later, he will not die sooner or later, but the lone king will kill himself when he comes to ask questions, the old general should be careful of the sneaky people in the army." "This is obvious, it must be that Gan Hu's subordinates have a traitor, knowing that Chen Lin is here, in order to prevent that person from being asked anything, maybe that person did not commit suicide at all, but was killed by a traitor.
When Gan Hu heard this, he was shocked: "What did the lord say?" Chen Lin waved his hand: "This is a matter in your army, the lone king doesn't care, but this Kuiguan is safe, and the lone king is relieved, what is the situation in Kuiguan now?" Gan Hu: "My lord, there are now 4,000 people in Kuiguan, because it is a trade pass between Jingzhou and Yizhou, and people come and go very lively. The tax revenue in Guanzhong is almost enough for the thousands of defenders in Guanzhong for their own use, but because of the proximity to the enemy, Kuiguan now only closes for two hours every day at noon. After two hours, the gates are to be closed for safety in any case. Jiangzhou soldiers and horses do not need two days to first aid Kuiguan, even if 100,000 troops come, Kuiguan can hold on for five or six days. β
When Chen Lin heard this, he smiled and said, "One hundred thousand troops? The soldiers of the whole country under the command of the king of Chu are only 100,000, if he dares to come to Badong with 100,000, what can he do to guard against mediocrity, let alone Jiangdong. The old general guarded the pass, made great contributions, and Huang Yan brought the lone king's coat. Not long after, Huang Yan took out a coat from behind that that was different from the blood-red robe, but it was also fiery and dazzling. After Chen Lin took it, he stepped forward with a smile, and draped his coat over Gan Hu with both hands.
Gan Hu hurriedly knelt down: "Lord, I can't help it." Chen Lin: "No, the old general, let, the lonely king does not reward the old general's good land and money, only this lonely king has been wearing a coat for more than a year, and I hope the old general will not dislike it." Gan Hu Lao had tears in his eyes: "The last general is willing to protect the Lord for ten years." "Ten years, it's time for Gan Hu to step down. When Chen Lin heard this, Gan Hu was a real person, and if he didn't talk big, Chen Lin was even happier in his heart. Gan Hu does not have the courage of Gan Ning, but he is much calmer, and it is best to guard the pass.
After Gan Hu left, Huang Yan: "Young Master, do you suspect that there are also spies in the old general's army, and now that the person is dead, the eldest young master should hurry back to Jiangzhou, lest that Peng Xian also suffer an accident." Chen Lin nodded: "Well, that's reasonable, the Scarlet Guards are foot soldiers and walk slowly." Ma Zhong, you quickly ride a fast horse, go back to Jiangzhou, and personally guard Peng Xian, don't let him die too. Ma Zhong hurried out.
There was nothing to do, and there was no need for Chen Lin to stay longer, so he led his troops to leave after staying overnight, and Gan Hu went out of the city for ten miles to see him off. When passing by Linjiang, Huang Yan asked again: "Young Master, do you want to enter Linjiang?" Chen Lin shook his head, time is pressing, this time I came out just to contact the Niuman tribe to see if I could take it for my own use, but I didn't expect it to come out unexpectedly, and I ran for hundreds of miles and came to Jiangzhou. But fortunately, it came out this time, otherwise Jiangzhou would be really in trouble.
"Go straight back to Jiangzhou." Returning to Jiangzhou was not Chen Lin's purpose, Chen Lin's purpose was Peng Xian and Li Chao. These two people can be regarded as the fish that slipped through the net of the Shu sergeant clan's rebellion, but they stirred up such a big movement, and the three thousand army was hidden in the territory, it was terrible to think about. Two days later, when he returned to Jiangzhou, Gan Ning came to greet him, Chen Lin: "Xingba, your father and son are in two places, the lonely king is ashamed, you have time to go to Kuiguan more, Kuiguan is also your jurisdiction." Gan Ning hurriedly responded.
In the dungeon, the three commanders, Chen Lin and Huang Yan, as well as Li Hui and Du Qiong, faced Peng Xian. Li Hui: "Peng Yongnian, your conspiracy failed, Kuiguan is unharmed, Jingzhou's soldiers and horses went back after a circle in the east of Kuiguan, your hopes have been disappointed, what else do you have to say." You said that you were good at the beginning, even if you followed Liu Junlang to Jingzhou, you must be a rich man, why bother? β
When Chen Lin heard this, he smiled: "De'ang, you still don't understand, why did Jingzhou suddenly send so many soldiers and horses without the King of Chu?" Jia Qiande will never be able to do it alone, do you really think that Liu Junlang is just a peacekeeper? Li Hui was shocked: "Lord, is it-"
"I can't think of anything that I can't hide from the King of Chu, yes, it's the adult who sponsors Jia Qiande, and Jia Qiande also agrees with the adult's plan, if it can succeed this time, the adult can enter Shu from the new, settle in Badong, and no longer have to suffer that bird gas in Jingzhou. It's a pity, God doesn't fulfill people's wishes. King Qin, do you know everything? Hahahaha, the most untrustworthy is a villain, I don't know if there's one thing you know? May I ask King Qin, how are most of the governors doing? β
Chen Lin's heart was cold, and he smiled: "Hahaha, you must think that if it wasn't the Lone King who happened to be in Shuzhong this time, but Shu Zhi was still in charge, you would have succeeded, wouldn't you?" Hmph, naΓ―ve, Shu Zhi is ten times more wise than the lonely king, even if the lonely king is not in Shu, with the uncle zhi, you will not succeed. Huang Yan, send Mr. Peng on the road. Chen Lin said that he glanced at Huang Yan, Huang Yan was startled, quickly drew his knife and shot, and with a pop, the head fell to the ground. Everyone couldn't imagine that all of a sudden Chen Lin would be a killer, but he was afraid that Peng Xian would not understand until he died.
Li Hui: "Lord, this-" Chen Lin: "It's not a pity for this person to die, De'ang, Xingba can say it, what did Li Weinan say?" "Li Chao is the county commander of Jiangzhou. Li Hui shook his head: "General Gan said that Li Chao just got a Badong Taishou Chengruo, and he didn't know anything else. After that, Li Hui laughed helplessly, power kills people, in the end, Li Chao himself is just a small person, but he doesn't know it.
Chen Lin: "King Gu decided to officially establish Badong County, when will Lu Jiping arrive?" On the way here, Chen Lin had already given an order to Lu Kai and was promoted to the post of Taishou of Xinpadang. Huang Yan: "Big young master, Lord Lu is on the road, and he can arrive within half a month." Chen Lin sighed: "Originally, I wanted Ji Ping to return to Shu County to help Shuzhi, but there was really no suitable person, so he was asked to come to Badong." But that's fine, with Ji Ping's ability, it is not a problem to govern a county. Okay, Ji Ping's family moved, and it will take some time to come to Jiangzhou, but we can't wait, we will leave tomorrow and return to Jianning. β
Huang Yan: "Big young master, this Lord Lu is here, will General Gan-" Chen Lin waved his hand: "King Gu knows what you are worried about, there is no need at all, Xingba is a martial artist, it's okay to ask him to lead troops to fight, he is definitely not obsessed with power, so don't worry that he will give Ji Ping trouble, so Xingba can concentrate on managing the army." β
Li Hui saw another meaning: "Lord, what is the purpose of returning to Jianning in such a hurry?" Isn't the strategy set by the lord and the military advisors to hold on to the Nanban until the spring passes, and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack, seeing that the lord is like this, it seems that he wants to attack in advance? β
Chen Lin nodded: "The Lone King does have this thought, but what to do, he has to go back and discuss with the two military advisors." Peng Xian's matter, let the lonely king know that time, the lonely king can afford to wait, but others do not allow the lonely king to wait, it is better to end this peaceful chaos as soon as possible, so that he can have the strength to deal with the possible crisis. Oh, Ji Pinglai came to form the Padang County Government, things are complicated, and there is a shortage of personnel. In this way, De'ang and Boyu, both of you will stay in Padang, De'ang has made great contributions, and the lone king will make you the prince of Padang. Bo Yu is a newcomer, although he has great talents, but his qualifications are a little lacking, and he is temporarily a subordinate official of the county, are you willing? β
Du Qiong hurriedly thanked him: "Yes." "A nineteen-year-old person can go straight to the county government to serve, what else can he not be satisfied with, Du Qiong's trip is considered a success.
In Jianning City, in the secret room, there were only Chen Lin and Chen Zhi. Chen Dao: "Big brother, your trip is really dangerous. Chen Lin also sighed: "Yes, in Niuman, if it weren't for Shi A, I'm afraid I really wouldn't be able to come back." However, this trip smashed the conspiracy of Liu Junlang and others, and there is a little uncle who should not be careless. β
Chen Zhi was shocked: "Oh? Chen Lin grinned: "This time I caught a person, who are you, Peng Xian Peng Yongnian." And bluntly said Uncle to you, it seems that Peng Xian also knows about that matter, you are too careless. Chen Zhi was shocked: "What? Peng Xian? But I've never seen this person, how can he know if the eldest brother killed this person? β
"Can I not kill, in addition to Huang Yan and others at that time, there were also De'ang and others present, if he said it, wouldn't it be a bad thing. If you let others know that you secretly instigated this rebellion of the scholars, it won't make a fuss. β
Chen Zhi's expression was calm: "For the sake of my brother, Uncle Zhi is willing to do anything, even if he is ruined." Chen Lin smiled: "With me, you can be ruined, unless I am the same, hmph, no one can try to stop my Chen family from advancing, the Shu sergeant clan can't, the Nanban can't, no one can." β
Chen Dao: "Listen to Huang Yan, the eldest brother wants to make a move on Nanban in advance?" Chen Lin: "Yes, now I feel more and more pressed for time. Zhang Shidu attacked Nanyang and died, and Zhang Xiu led Nanyang. Yuan Shu is the emperor, and now Tao Qiancao * and Wentai, all of them are staring at Huainan, and Yuan Shu's life will not be long. Ma Teng attached Liu Bei, this Han clan is different from yesterday, I regret it. In any case, now that the princes have been eliminated and subdued one by one, there must be only a few big princes left in the end. If we don't hurry up and clean up the interior and find a way to expand ourselves, we will end up being swallowed up by others. β
"After solving the Nanban, start with Jia Qiande, the White Emperor City is not in his hands, how can he say that Yizhou is unified. The king of Chu in Jingzhou is not enterprising enough, and the defenders take Jingzhou, then our army will have the capital to resist Jiangdong, and even go down the river and annex Jiangdong. β
"But if you want to go north, it's difficult, Wen He once predicted that the north would eventually be unified, you see that now Yuan Benchu will unify Hebei, if it weren't for Meng De, a tyrant who is in the way, I'm afraid that Yuan Benchu has become a sweeping trend, time, it's urgent."
Chen Dao: "Brother, Shuzhong has just calmed down and recovered a lot, and it is a pity that this Nanban, this fertile field, cannot be used." β
Chen Lin: "Hahaha, this time to solve the Nanban, coupled with the great reduction of the power of the Shu sergeant clan, there are no more people in Shuzhong, and in less than two years, Shuzhong will be able to continuously support our army in foreign wars, uncle don't underestimate this land in Shuzhong, millions of people." "In the past few years that Chen Lin has pacified Shuzhong, he has been restricted by the scholars in Shu everywhere, and he is very unhappy, these have cut down so many people at once, but the land can be confiscated tens of millions of mu, plus the three million people in Shuzhong, who dares to underestimate it.
The next day, Chen Lin convened the generals to discuss the matter, and Gao Shun, Jia Xu and others were all listed. Chen Lin: "Ladies and gentlemen, Shuzhi has already returned from Shuzhong, although he did not bring reinforcements from Qingqiang, but he brought my Yizhou soldiers and horses, and added another 10,000. "It turned out that Chen went back to Shu County and did three things, one was to kill people, and the rebellious scholars were sentenced, and the blood flowed like a river of blood. The second thing is to contact Qingqiang, but unfortunately Qingqiang is reluctant to be too far away from home, and the land of Jianning Yunnan is more than thousands of miles away. The third thing is to urgently order Guanghan and other counties to send troops, Chen Zhiyi totaled 10,000 troops, and went south from Xin, so that Jianning had an army of about 50,000, which was one to two with Nanban.
Chen Lin: "The Lone King has been thinking for a long time, and plans to launch a counterattack against Nanban immediately, instead of waiting until three months later as planned, do you have a good plan?" One word broke the tranquility, and Chen Lin's words immediately surprised everyone, but the generals were pure and eager to move.
Fa Zheng: "My lord, tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in our army have finally built Jianning into an iron bucket, if you take the initiative to give up this good advantage, I am afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses." "The current Jianning is dozens of miles left and right, and it is definitely an insurmountable front, with ravines and ravines, staggered beacon towers, and how tightly defended.
Jia Xu looked at it, how could he not see Chen Lin's thoughts, the law is not clear, Chen Lin really wants to fight, is it okay to disobey him, really. Jia Xu: "Filial piety is not, you see, in the past month, the Nanban has also come to test from time to time, after more than a dozen confrontations, the Nanban has suffered a lot of losses, and they are not stupid, you see that in the past half a month, there are still Nanban people to provoke?" It shows that the Southern Barbarians also do not intend to attack Jianning, and Jianning's advantages are naturally useless, and the statement of filial piety naturally does not exist. β
"In fact, from the beginning, the strategy set by our army was not necessarily right." Jia Xu said something again, but it was surprising, and even Chen Lin was looking forward to what Jia Xu could say.
Chen Lin: "Oh? The southern barbarians are strong, our army was caught off guard at first, and we need to slowly accumulate strength before we can fight with it, what's wrong with this? Jia Xu smiled: "Yes, what the lord said is exactly the reason why I considered it before." However, as everyone knows, our army was caught off guard at the beginning, and the Nanban had just gone north, and the people were eager to reject it, but when they had enough time to ease, wouldn't the Nanban gain a foothold in Yunnan. β
Fa Zheng: "Wenhe, have you forgotten that this is the Southern Barbarians, the Yi people, how could they occupy the city, when have you ever seen the Yi people know how to hold the city." β
Jia Xu smiled again: "Everyone, it has been ten months since the Southern Barbarians invaded the north, and it has been seven months since the Southern Barbarians occupied Yunnan. Jia Xu said, Chen Lin was also shocked, yes, this time the Tuya King has been in Yunnan for a long time, this is unreasonable. Chen Lin hurriedly asked: "Wenhe, this, why is this, is it possible that the Southern Barbarians also want to learn from my Han people, he wants to become a country of his own in Yunnan?" β
Jia Xu: "Lord, this is also what the lord thought of after he came back from Padang and knew what happened in Padang." Now the rebels in Yunnan are no longer simple southern barbarians, don't forget Yongmen and Zhu Bao. As soon as Fa Zheng was right, he immediately exclaimed: "Ah, what does Mr. Wenhe mean is that the reason why Nanban has stayed for a long time now is because of Yongmen and Zhu Bao?" β
Jia Xu: "Yes, it must be these two people who promised benefits to the Nanban, and they want to borrow the strength of the Nanban to compete with our army, and the purpose is still for Yunnan." Now south of Jianning, although the Han population is only about ten people, if it is used by Yongmen for a long time, it can get about 10,000 troops. In addition, Yongmen has Nanban as a backup, but I am afraid that Yongmen thinks that in this way it can be divided into Yunnan. β
Chen Lin: "The current Yunnan County, but the merger of the three counties of Dahan back then, the population is not large, but the soil is vast. If Yongmen used this land as a price to collude with the Nanban, the consequences would be unimaginable. Gao Shun and others, who had never spoken, shouted: "What, cede the land to foreigners? "As a citizen of the Han Dynasty, who does not have a different affection for the land, it is a shame to give the land to foreigners.
Jia Xu: "Lord, this is just one of them. Second, the reason why we say that the strategy set by our military is not necessarily correct is because we have ignored a climate and cultural issue. The lord still remembers that when he first came to the south, our sergeants were not accustomed to the water and soil. Now there is no big problem in the army, and the lord may feel that our army has been coming to the south for a long time and is used to it. Actually, it's not, but because it's getting colder now. Such weather is just right for most northerners in our army. But in this southern land, as soon as May and June pass, the weather is extremely hot. At that time, Nanban was handy, but it was a disaster for our army. β
Chen Lin was startled and hurriedly got up from his seat, at this time everyone obviously thought of the problem caused by this seemingly simple question. Now among the 50,000 troops in Jianning, 20,000 are people from the Shangyong area of Hanzhong, and many are also from Guanghan and Brazil. No one knows where this battle will be fought in order to solve the problem of Nanban once and for all, and if it reaches Sanjiang, it will be 1,800 miles away from Jianning.
Chen Lin walked around, unconcealing the anxiety in his heart in front of everyone. Jia Xu saw that Chen Lin was in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "Lord, our army has been on the defensive for a long time, and Nanban must not have imagined that our army would suddenly take the initiative to attack." I have an idea. Chen Lin: "Hurry up and listen to it." β
Jia Xu: "Lord, I think that it is best for us to go out of Yongmen first." Not to mention the first article just mentioned, Yongmen is very likely to want to take Yunnan as its own. Besides, Yongmen is a Han Chinese, full of poetry and books, and is familiar with the tactics of the Han people, if he has always supported the Southern Barbarians, it will be a great disadvantage to our army. Therefore, Yongmen must be solved first. β
Chen Lin: "Oh, but how to do it, isn't Yongmen also in Yunnan with Nanban now?" β
Jia Xu: "Yongmen is true in Yunnan, but the scout report also said that in order to win over the Han people in Yunnan and increase his own troops, Yongmen did not live in Yunnan City with the Tuya King and other southern barbarians. Instead, they recruited troops in the Liushan area and bought people's hearts at the same time. Jia Xu walked to the map as he spoke, pointed to a place less than two hundred miles behind Shakou and said: "This is the place where there are more than a dozen Han people living around Liushan, and thirty percent of the population of Yunnan is concentrated in this place of less than two hundred miles. But what was very beneficial to our army was that there was no decent city in Liushan. Therefore, it is thought that our army can do this, so that one person can go to Shakou with great fanfare, and only walk 20 miles a day. Let the barbarians think that our army is going to grab the front line pass of Shakou, and then the main force of our army secretly concealed the enemy, traveled 300 miles, went straight to Liushan, and killed Yongmen in one fell swoop. There is no danger to defend in the mountain, and it is not a strategic place, our army's target this time is only Yongmen, and after killing Yongmen, we will quickly return to the army Shakou. When the barbarians learned that our army sent troops to stay in the mountains, they would definitely rush to stay in the mountains, and at that time, our army could take advantage of the victorious division to break through the sand mouth and face the Yunnan barbarian soldiers. From then on, the battle line could be moved forward by 800 miles from Jianning. β
Jia Xu is well-founded, but it is not so easy to grasp. The main force went to Liushan, how to hide from the barbarians is not an easy task, and then as soon as the battle of Liushan happens, if the barbarians ignore Liushan and go straight to Jianning, it will really be over.
Chen Lin lowered his head and thought for a long time, Gao Shun and others also had a heated discussion, and finally, Chen Lin: "Wenhe's plan is not impossible, now our army has tens of thousands of troops, and defense is not a problem." Therefore, it is advisable to take the initiative to attack, and it is also the intention of King Lone, so let's do it, Gao Shun, Chen Dao, Huang Zhong, Yan Yan, Yang Huai, Gao Ding, Wu Ban, as the main force of the offensive and barbarian in this battle, Wu Yi guarded the town and Jianning, and Liu Hua and others supplied grain and grass for the army to ensure the army's war needs. Chen Zhi led 10,000 troops, and the remaining six divisions each had 5,000 troops, a total of 40,000 troops after ten days. Wu Yi Taishou was responsible for leading the troops to Shakou to confuse the enemy, and at the same time strictly ordered General Yang Ren of Lujin Pass to lead 3,000 troops to cross the river to the south, go straight to Shakou, walk 20 miles a day, and quickly return to Lujin Pass after 10 days. β
"Today's deliberations shall not be passed on, and if there is a violation of the order, it will be beheaded."
