Chapter 27: The Family Feast

Lu Bu's "family banquet" is very characteristic of Bingzhou, and he has used a Hu bed, sitting around a small table, and the table is set up with wine and food - a rare banquet with a shared meal.

And it is indeed a "family banquet", the dish is very simple, and it is said that it is made by Diao Chan himself.

To the sable...... Bai Tu followed Lu Lingqi, and they were all called "aunts".

But now Lu Lingqi looked at the bowl in front of Bai Tu, the boiled meat, barbecue meat that was about to reach her chin, and her own pitiful bowl, there were only a few slices of green vegetables on the rice, and they were all sandwiched by her aunt, and she couldn't help but fall into deep thought......

After three rounds of drinking, Lu Bu also talked to Bai Tu about business, that is, about going to Yangzhou later!

"Yuan Shu's wolf ambition, now Jiujiang and Lujiang in Huainan, as well as Yuzhang in Jiangdong, have been controlled by him, Danyang Taishou is also cited by Yuan Shu, Wujun Yan Baihu is in chaos, Huiji is slightly better, Taishou Wang Lang is said to be a Confucian celebrity......" Lu Bu said with some ingenuity.

"It's definitely a hard back." Lu Lingqi muttered quietly.

After being glared at by Lu Bu, Lu Lingqi pursed her lips and didn't speak, but she snatched a piece of meat from the white picture bowl.

At this time, Yangzhou had a total of six counties, Jiujiang and Lujiang were in Huainan, and there were only four counties in Jiangdong, and the reason why Sun Quan was later called "Jiangdong Six Counties" was because he divided the largest Yuzhang County into three - this was also the routine operation of the warlords in the Three Kingdoms era.

One is to look bluffing, and the other is to ...... Indeed, the more detailed administrative division has improved the efficiency of the military and government.

Today's Yuzhang Taishou is Hua Xin, and his reputation is only higher than Kong Rong, if it is enough to be a minister in the ruling world, even in the troubled times, it is enough to lay a solid foundation for the princes in the rear, but in the early days of the troubled times, it is limited to directly face military threats.

Although Hua Xin was unwilling to go along with Yuan Shu, he couldn't stop the erosion of Yuan's protégés and former officials under his rule, so he had to acquiesce to allocate part of the manpower and taxes to Yuan Shu, who claimed to be the pastor of Yangzhou, every quarter!

Although the nominal Taishou of Lujiang is Lu Kang, he was attacked by Yuan Shu last year because Lu Kang explicitly opposed Yuan Shu and refused Yuan Shu's order to transfer grain, and now he has been besieged in a lonely city for almost a year, and all counties in the county have attached to Yuan Shu.

As for Jiujiang, it is the base camp of Yuan Shu.

The Jiangdong region, that is, the southeast side of the Yangtze River, flows closer to the southwest to the northeast than to the horizontal west to east.

This was especially true of the flow of the Yangtze River during this period, so the saying "Jiangdong" became more popular.

At the same time, Jiangdong is divided into two by the Gan River, which flows from north to south, with Yuzhang County on the west side, which is relatively developed, and Danyang on the east side, which is mountainous—to what extent? It is because there are too many mountains and too many people in the mountains that Danyang is strong!

And the east coast of the coast, the north is Wu County, that is, the Wu country in the Spring and Autumn Period, the south is Huiji County, where the Yue Kingdom in the Spring and Autumn Period is located, and the mountains are more and more chaotic, which is the area of Danyang and Wu Yue......

At this time, it was the bandit army led by Yan Baihu who controlled Wu County, but "according to Lu Bu's speculation", there was a Jiangdong family behind it.

And Huiji County is now the best situation for Bai Tu, Taishou Wang Lang is not an ambitious person, and when Bai Tu's deeds are diffusion, I believe that Wang Lang should have a good impression of Bai Tu.

"How I don't believe it's your speculation." Lu Lingqi muttered quietly while poking the meat in the bowl.

"Hard drive, are you full? What are you doing in a daze? Don't put away the dishes and chopsticks yet! Lu Bu said to Diao Chan and his daughter with a straight face.

Diao Chan glanced at him silently, and then lowered his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes...... It's just that he doesn't know why, Bai Tu feels that Lu Bu seems to stiffen.

"......Shh I'm going to train after dinner! Lu Lingqi ran out directly.

What is Putting Chopsticks Away? After Lu Lingqi became sensible, she ate more in the barracks, even if she is in Xiaopei now, she usually spends more time in the barracks than in the house.

"How's Qu'a?" Bai Tu asked tentatively.

What do you think? Bai Tu is not very clear, but he knows that Liu Miao went to Qu'a at the beginning - even if he is a member of the Han clan and a legitimate Yangzhou pastor, Liu Miao did not dare to fight Huainan as soon as he came up, but went to Jiangdong...... Qu'a, a county in the northern part of Wu County, is close to the Yangtze River.

However, under some management later, Liu Miao was still relatively mixed in Jiangdong, but he was completely unsuitable for the rules of the troubled times, and was finally swept away by Sun Ce.

Quoting Zhuge Liang's statement: "Liu Miao and Wang Lang each based on the state and county, talked about the security of the words, moved the saints, the crowd was full of doubts, the crowd was difficult to stuff the chest, this year will not fight, next year will not be levied, so that Sun Ce will sit big, and then Jiangdong." ”

Translated into the vernacular, it is Liu Miao and Wang Lang, who obviously have some roots in Jiangdong, but they talk a lot of nonsense and don't do business, so they let Sun Ce grow stronger and stronger in vain, and swept them out......

There is a saying that "tomorrow will be tomorrow, and tomorrow will be so many." I will wait for tomorrow, and Sun Ce will be the eldest brother."

"That's right, Gongtai...... And I think so too! Lu Bu nodded.

Battuton knew that Chen Gong had no better idea.

In fact, this is also inevitable, after all, Liu Xuan's choice of Qu A naturally has his reasons.

First, Qu'a is located in the north of Wu County, close to the Yangtze River, and Yan Baihu, who occupies Wu County, has no righteous name after all, and the main control range is in the south-central part of Wu County, where the family is stronger, and Qu'a, which is close to the Yangtze River in the north, should still obey the righteousness of the imperial court.

The second is that Qu Axi took Danyang, and although Danyang Taishou is Yuan Shu's performance, he is not a descendant of the Yuan family, so don't worry about being pulled out by Yuan Shu before he can stand still......

It's just that if you want to go to Qu'a, it's a big problem.

If Guangling County in Xuzhou, which is near the sea in Huainan, is still there, it can be reached directly through Guangling and across the Yangtze River.

However, now the entire Huainan is already under Yuan Shu's control.

If you go alone like Liu Xuan, you won't be discovered, but ...... Bai Tu's starting point is better than Liu Xuan's, and Lu Bu and his Hezhou army will also support him, but how can these 5,000 cavalry quietly cross Huainan and cross the Jiangdong River?

In the past few months, Lu Bu has been stationed in Xiaopei, and the original more than 4,000 Bingzhou and Liangzhou cavalry have expanded to 5,000, of which 3,500 are Bingzhou wolf cavalry and 1,000 Xiliang iron cavalry.

It is said that these two major arms of the armed forces must be trained in Bingzhou and Liangzhou, but if they are "replenished", they can use troops from other places, but they need a certain "discount rate".

In fact, this is also in line with the law of reality, even if there is no training function of Chengji, with more than 4,000 cavalry from Liangzhou, recruiting new soldiers in the Central Plains, as long as the number is small, it will naturally be trained and assimilated by the veterans of Liangzhou!

However, the elimination rate may be larger......

Therefore, there is an additional manpower consumption for the replenishment of troops in different places, which is completely reasonable, and it is also limited to "replenishment", Lu Bu wants to use three thousand wolf horses in other states and counties, and tens of thousands of horses in other states and counties, it is completely impossible, even if he is given so many war horses, he can't do it!

At the same time, Xiao Pei's foot soldiers are also several thousand, but neither Lu Bu nor Bai Tu has any intention of moving these foot soldiers.

Suddenly want to release Liu Bei's pigeon to Yangzhou, I am already a little embarrassed, and I have to take other people's foot soldiers away? You can't bully honest people like this......

And now with only these 5,000 cavalry, Bai Tu and Lu Bu have a bit of a headache.

"Public ...... And I mean, it is not advisable to force a breakthrough, if it really doesn't work, you and I will take our own soldiers, travel lightly, and act as a caravan to go to Qu'a first, Wenyuan and they can stay, and you can also help Liu Bei guard for a while, and have the opportunity to join us again. ”

Bai Tu was a little moved, Lu Bu was ready to "start from scratch" again......
