Chapter 879: The Merchant
"Then transfer Jia Shangshu back?" Xu Shu on the side asked.
Now Xu Shu is also understaffed, Zhuge Liang has not come back, Liu Ye is digesting his Yangzhou Industrial Zone, as for Lu Su and others, they are also doing their own duties, Yangzhou is now spread out, and all aspects need to be taken care of, and it is no longer the point before that as long as one person eats enough for the whole family.
"No need!" Liu Mang shook his head, if Jia Xu defeated Zhao Wei over there, then Liu Mang would transfer Jia Xu back now.
Because keeping Jia Xu in Wuxi is not of much use, the punishment given to Jia Xu is enough.
But now Jia Xu has taken Yunnan and killed Zhao Wei, so he can make a fuss.
"Lord, do you want it?" Xu Shu is not a stupid person, and he figured out the key at once.
"The Jianning generation has been captured by Zhao Wei! Liu Zhang's army is now stationed in Tongguan Sword Pavilion to defend Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, and there are only Jianning's defeated troops near Chengdu Mansion and Zhang Ren's reinforcements! Liu Mang looked at the map of the entire Shuchuan and thought about it.
There is such a law in Yizhou, Liu Mang wants to know the layout of Yizhou is still very simple.
"Yuan Zhi, what do you say will happen if we march into Chengdu?!" Liu Mang asked with a glittering look in his eyes.
"March to Chengdu Mansion?!" Xu Shu also hesitated, but he knew how many soldiers and horses Jia Xu had in his hands, Jia Xu's ability, Xu Shu still recognized it, this person was called a poisoner, it was not unreasonable, with this person, he should be able to disrupt the country.
But after the war with Zhao Wei, how many soldiers and horses can Jia Xu have left. At the beginning, he only brought 3,000 Wuxi barbarians.
"The matter of soldiers and horses. Rest assured. This old fox didn't throw himself into danger! "Liu Mang and Jia Xu have worked together.
Knowing that this old fox has always believed that the gentleman is not conducive to being under the dangerous wall, and now that he has taken Yunnan City, this old fox will definitely not give up the opportunity to expand the army.
"The new army was formed, how to have combat effectiveness?!" Xu Shu on the side was still worried.
"That's a problem!" Liu Mang frowned. Jia Xu's soldiers and horses may only be able to protect themselves.
Liu Mang also has a headache, this Jia Xu Jia Wenhe can take Yunnan City with 3,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, what if he gives him another 3,000 barbarian army?
Liu Mang regretted it. Why didn't you increase your support for the Wuxi barbarians, even if you want to transport weapons and armor now, it's too late.
"Lord, we don't just have Jia Xu all the way in Yizhou!" Xu Shu over there suddenly remembered something and said to Liu Mang.
"Kuai Yue and Cai Mao!" Liu Mang also remembered that he really didn't just have such a soldier and horse in Yizhou, but also Kuai Yue and Cai Mao.
Why did Jia Xu attack Yunnan, didn't it reduce the pressure on Liu Zhang, so that he could discharge Zhang Ren to assist Cai Mao and Kuai Yue to open the way back to Jingzhou in the east.
It's a pity that Liu Zhang is not a discerning master after all, as soon as he saw that the Jianning generation was missing, he immediately abandoned Cai Mao and Kuai Yue, and let Zhang Ren return to aid the Jianning generation with his soldiers and horses.
"If Cai Mao and Kuai Yue's soldiers and horses can enter Jiangzhou west to Jianning. Then Jia Shangshu may not be able to fight! It's just that! Xu Shu said with a little hesitation.
"Just what?!" Liu Mang asked suspiciously.
"It's just that I'm afraid that this Cai Mao will be more and won't listen to Jia Shangshu's orders!" Xu Shu explained to Liu Mang. After all, these soldiers and horses are Cai Mao and Kuai Yue's own, and when they enter Jiangzhou in the west, they will inevitably have a conflict with Liu Zhang, and the loss of 1 will definitely be not small at that time.
In this way, this country was won for him Liu Mang, but this loss was Cai Mao and Kuai Yue, do you say that Cai Mao and Kuai Yue will agree.
"Haha, Yuan Zhi is worried about this matter! If so, it can be done! Liu Mang laughed, if Cai Mao and Kuai Yue were before, they might not agree, but now that Liu Mang received Cai Mao and Kuai Yue's letter, he knew that these two people had been tied to the chariot of the Yangzhou army.
Besides, do Kuai Yue and Cai Mao still have to choose now? They were blocked by Pang Shiyuan, the commander of Pang Shiyuan, and the army over there was blocked in the Yong'an generation, and they couldn't go back to Jingzhou at all.
Cai Mao and Kuaiyue's army are also running out of food and grass, and if they can't fight the road, the final outcome will be trapped in Yizhou.
So now Cai Mao and Kuai Yue have no choice at all. "If that's the case, Yizhou is really possible!" Xu Shu's eyes also lit up. Jia Xu was able to take Yunnan with an army of 3,000 barbarians and killed Zhao Wei of Yizhou for three points.
And now let Jia Xu and Cai Mao and Kuai Yue's soldiers and horses converge, isn't Yizhou still within reach.
Liu Mang said that he would do it, and he immediately sent a letter, one to Yizhou, which made people hurry up and send it to Yizhou. What is written on it is that Liu Mang regards himself as a junior, but it is still Liu who has the prestige of His Royal Highness the King of Han.
Let Cai Mao and Kuai Yue help Jia Xu, if it is successful, there will be a reward.
As for Liu Mang's sympathy for Liu Zhang in the past, he has been thrown by Liu Mang to the country of Jawa, and now Liu Mang himself can also find that he has changed, no longer the sentimental person he used to be, but more of the majesty of a superior and the kind of cold storage that uses everything as a bargaining chip.
For Liu Zhang, Liu Mang will no longer keep his previous thoughts, since he Liu Zhang can't stand Yizhou, then hand over Yizhou to him Liu Mang.
As for Liu Zhang himself, Liu Mang will leave an idle position and a hereditary title for him.
"Let's cross Jiangzhou and go to Jianning?" Cai Mao and Kuai Yue soon received a letter from Liu Mang.
Subconsciously, Cai Mao was about to object, because this Cai Mao and Kuai Yue's soldiers and horses were both private soldiers of the Shi clan and their own property, and now they were going to Jianning to help Liu Mang fight the world, this is not a loss-making business.
What's more, it says that Cai Mao and Kuai Yue must listen to Jia Xu's orders.
Why?
However, he was stopped by Kuai Yue on the side, "Brother Desi, good opportunity, good opportunity!" Kuai Yue and Cai Mao thought differently. He saw not losses. It's about winning the benefits of Yizhou.
"Good chance?!" Cai Mao is not in a hurry. I want to hear Kuaiyue's explanation.
"Brother Desi, although you and I have already promised His Royal Highness the King of Han to enter Yangzhou! But Brother Desi, I believe you also know that although you and I are talented, there are many stronger than you and me in Yangzhou. In terms of strategy, I am not as good as Xu Shu Tianfeng, and even Zhuge Kongming, Lu Su's junior is on par with me! What's more, you and I are already old! Kuai Yue said to Cai Mao.
Cai Mao couldn't help but nod his head when he listened to Kuai Yue's words, he Cai Mao is a military general, and he thinks that overall planning is his Cai Mao's strength, but he also knows that he Cai Mao is not as good as those fierce generals in Yangzhou.
Far from it. The nearest ones are Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and others, and those are all handsome. After that, there were Zhao Yun, Ganning and others, who were all people who could take the head of the general from the army.
How can he Cai Mao be compared, if he just relies on an overall plan, at most he Cai Mao will be a military Sima to the end.
"Brother Desi, this version of you and I will go to Jianning for the first generation, and join forces with that Jia Xu Jia Wenhe, this Jia Xu Jia Wenhe, you should also know! This man is resourceful! Kuai Yue was not at all restless about Jia Xu's praise, and even Kuai Yue had fought with Jia Xu, before Liu Biao wanted to use Zhang Xiu as the door opener for his northern gateway to Jingzhou.
If it weren't for Jia Xu, I'm afraid Zhang Xiu would have been annexed by Jingzhou long ago.
But because of Jia Xu's existence, Zhang Xiu became more and more active, and even embarrassed Jingzhou in several places.
"Brother Desi, if you and I take Yizhou with Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe, it will be different again!" Kuai Yue said to Cai Mao.
"Jingzhou Yizhou is originally connected, we could use Jingzhou as a gift to His Royal Highness the King of Han before, but now we can only send it to Nanyang County! It can't help but seem a little stingy, and if you add this Yizhou, Brother Desi, this credit is enough to make Brother Desi rank in the center! Kuai Yue spoke to Cai Mao.
"Take Yizhou!" Cai Mao's eyes also lit up.
His original plan was to rely on the son that his sister gave birth to Liu Mang, and to rely on this eldest nephew to protect Cai Mao's wealth.
But Cai Mao himself was also thinking about worrying, because his eldest nephew's opponent was too strong.
The first Mrs. Cai is not Liu Mang's first lady, so the son he gave birth to is only the eldest son, but not the eldest son.
Second, Liu Mang's wives are not weak at all.
For example, Miss Lu, he is in Yangzhou, and behind him is the military general group of Lu Bu's family as a backup.
It can be regarded as a huge force in the army.
If this Miss Lu gave birth to a son, then as soon as this kid was born, there would be a large number of generals standing behind him.
This second is Qiao Xuan's two daughters, the original Da Qiao is still at a disadvantage.
Because Da Qiao didn't dare to recognize his father, Da Qiao's identity was very embarrassing.
And now Qiao Xuan has admitted that Liu Mang is such a cheap son-in-law.
So he has been recognized by Qiao Xuan, although Qiao Xuan is a bad old man, but the aura on this person's body is a great Confucian. There are countless protégés, and now Qiao Xuan is the vice president of Yangzhou Academy, and every Yangzhou book still has Qiao Xuan's signature.
It can be said that Qiao Xuan represents a large number of civil officials in Yangzhou, and there is also a behemoth standing behind Qiao Yu. What's more, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, the two sisters are still one and the same.
Even if Yuan Fang, who has the smallest ability, is also the daughter of Yuan Shu, the fourth and third duke of the Yuan family, although Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are dead, there are many people who give the Yuan family face.
Like Yang Hong and others, they are dead set on Yuan Fang, Yang Hong is in control of most of the intelligence department in Yangzhou, and Yang Hong's son is now also in the position of a squire, and it is not impossible for him to be qualified for Shangshu's official position in the future.
is also very powerful, there is also a Tian Feng over there, although he is desperate for Yuan Shao, but he is still very grateful to the Yuan family, Yuan Shao is dead, and Yuan Fang, Yuan Shao's niece, can be regarded as being taken care of by Tian Feng.
And now it seems that his sister is the weakest one.
The current Mrs. Cai has nothing, except for a son, even if he is an elder brother, the former Cai Mao may still be able to help his sister, after all, he is the military advisor of Jingzhou, but now Cai Mao only has one Nanyang County left.
Several times, there are all Cai Mao's belongings in it, and the heritage of a family for a hundred years.
If it is just the position of a state pastor, Cai Mao can still have a decisive force, but now this His Royal Highness the Han King of Yangzhou is no longer just a state pastor.
Yangzhou, Jiangdong, Xuzhou, Yuzhou, and even now Jingzhou is about to fall into the hands of Liu Mang, the Han King of Yangzhou, which can be said to be the overlord of the Central Plains, half of the country.
This person will definitely be able to take the position of the Ninety-Five Venerable in the future. Even if it can't be reached, it can be ruled by rowing the river with Cao Cao.
In this way, his Cai Mao's power is really embarrassing, it is equivalent to a rich man, and he may be very useful in a county town, but after he arrives in the capital, he will be a rich man.
He, Cai Mao, still wants to rely on his eldest nephew to glorify the Cai family.
Now the opportunity has come, his Cai Mao's power is small, but it can rise, if he can take Yizhou now, this credit is really great, Yizhou plus a Nanyang County.
He Cai Mao can say that one-fifth of the country of Liu Mang, the king of your Han Dynasty, was beaten down by me Cai Mao.
Cai Mao already has the support of the Jingzhou scholars, if he can take Yizhou again and get the support of the Yizhou scholars, his Cai Mao family may not be able to compete with Lu Bu's military general group, Qiao Xuan and Yang Hong's civil official group.
Tell them that the rich man also has a tyrant.
After settling down, Cai Mao's eyes lit up, "Pass my military order, make a fire on the third watch, make a meal on the fifth watch, and immediately march towards the Jianning generation after eating!" ”
"Huh!" Kuai Yue looked at Cai Mao's appearance and knew that it was done, this Cai Mao Cai Desi, he Kuai Yue can be regarded as having been with Cai Mao for decades, how can he not know Cai Mao's mentality.
This man is not so much a military commander as a businessman.
Businessmen are greedy for profit, and they can't afford to make no profits. How could he, Cai Mao, be a person who trades at a loss?
And now it's a big deal in front of me, but the capital required is very large, but if it succeeds, it will be a million profits, even if it fails, I believe that the last person will make up for Cai Mao's loss.
With such a big profit, do you think Cai Mao will not do it?
"Brother Desi, don't worry, don't worry, we can't leave tomorrow, we have to fight with that Pang Shiyuan today!" Kuai Yue said to Cai Mao.
This Pang Shiyuan is right behind them, if they leave directly, it is inevitable that Pang Shiyuan will bite his tail and make himself embarrassed, which is not good.
So Kuai Yue must beat Pang Shiyuan, and he will be afraid of beating him, and he will not dare to chase him! (To be continued......)
