Sun Yu's move to send troops was obviously to obey An Ge's arrangement. First, 30,000 troops were dispatched, mainly the soldiers of the Jiangxia Naval Division, and they approached Xiangyang City with an unknown attitude.

This move can make Xiao and Sun Shouren unpredictable, so as to achieve the purpose of further delaying time. In addition, it is to make others think that Jiangxia has no soldiers to come out.

It is true that Sun Yu started an incident in Jiangxia and gathered a total of 70,000 people, but most of them belonged to the flow of the water cowards who were bought and bought, if they fought on a small scale, the combat effectiveness of the water cowards should not be underestimated, and once the number of people was hidden, the chaos and management were a big problem, and the more people there were, the more chaotic they were.

However, it was such a soldier, not to mention the unexpected raids on Xiakou and Wuchang, and it was a great success. There are some surprises, but in the end, they are quite surprising. Even if I later learned that most of Sun Shouyi's original team stayed to supervise the Kou Army, it can be seen that these people are also rare generals, and they have some certain abilities.

In this way, Sun Yu occupied the territory of Jiangxia and Wuchang counties, including half of Nanjun, a total of two and a half counties. Basically occupy the whole area of Yunmengze, obviously planning to rely on Yunyun Mengze's geographical advantages to also consolidate the defense.

As for the two counties of Nanyang and Yiyang in the north, they are still occupied by Huofeng's troops. This move is a bit of a way to tear up the agreement with Xiao Auntie, because Xiao Auntie will naturally not give up the Shangyong County she occupies or anything, but will hold all the three counties of Jianping, Tianmen, and Wuling in her own hands.

Poor Sun Shouren is currently only left with two lonely cities in central Jingzhou, Xiangyang and Jiangling.

In this process, Zhou Shaoyu's stay in Tanzhou can be described as low-key, not a single soldier rushed out, and it seems that he has no intention of taking advantage at all, even if Baling City, which is still nominally managed by Sun Shouren, is already panicked, and even wishes that Zhou Shaoyu would come over to close the house, because Baling City is still within the scope of Nanjun occupied by Sun Yu, and in Baling City, there are only 5,000 soldiers left, plus the assembled young and righteous soldiers, a total of more than 10,000.

This was originally intended to guard against Zhou Shaoyu, not to win, but to defend. The result is good now, I would rather Zhou Shaoyu come over.

There is no way, leading a group of water robbers to attack the city, no matter how you manage it, it is inevitable that there will be a phenomenon of disobedience, even if it is dealt with seriously, but the looting and burning caused and even the strong are irreparable. Is Shui Kou a Shui Kou, it is difficult to change habits in a short period of time, if you really come to attack Baling, I am afraid that it will be the same. It is impossible to say that there is even deliberate connivance, everyone knows that conniving at the soldiers under his command to mess around is actually effective in boosting morale.

In contrast, if Zhou Shaoyu is stationed, with his benevolent name, not only will the people in the city have no worries about their lives, but they will not even need to lose their property or anything.

Looking left and right, Baling City is really waiting for the Vermilion Bird Banner, who doesn't know that this exclusive Zhou Shaoyu army is used, not to mention that in addition to the Vermilion Bird Banner, there are also Zhouzi Banner and Sun Banner.

The former is naturally Zhou Shaoyu, and the latter, the name of Sun Shangxiang, the sailor of Tanzhou, may not be known if it is far away, but the distance of Baling can be regarded as unknown to everyone. Maybe the number of troops is a little less, but thousands, considering that there is Dongting Lake on the side, everyone knows it, and they only think that the army is a water division, and they have never come to the river.

"Xiaguan Baling County guards the history and he, see the regent." A little old man wore an official uniform and took the civil and military officials of Baling City to open the door and dedicate the city.

"Hmm." 'Zhou Shaoyu' was very arrogant, didn't pay much attention, nodded indifferently, and went straight into the city first. And the banquet arranged in the city afterwards was just a momentary perfunctory.

Although the officials of Baling were puzzled, they did not dare to ask more, but the army of the bad people was indeed honest and had nothing to do with Minqiu...... Really?

The capital city of Tanzhou.

"What!?" Zhou Shaoyu screamed. "How did I end up in Baling City?"

That's right, Zhou Shaoyu still plans to see how the situation changes, if he wants to occupy Baling, he is not going now, he is sitting in Tanzhou Chengnei, and he actually appears in Baling very magically? It's funny, isn't it.

And then the hell came even more.

At night, the fake Zhou Shaoyu began to ask for beauties, and the officials who were partial to Baling still took it for granted, who in the world didn't know that Zhou Shaoyu had many wives and concubines, what does this mean? It shows that it is so beautiful!

Then it became more and more wrong, first the fake Zhou Shaoyu wanted, and then for the generals under his command, and in the end, Baling Wenwu was directly served in a pot, and then thousands of people began to be wanton in the city, and the Baling soldiers who did not exist were quickly suppressed after sporadic resistance. But then the people were forced to revolt.

In short, it was a chaotic night.

It was easy to get to the dawn of the next day, Sun Zi Daqi appeared, although Sun Yu was not there, but An Ge was there, with thousands of men and horses to rescue him, and finally beat 'Zhou Shaoyu' away......

"Now that the matter of Baling City has spread, many people have said it, and they all say......" Xiao Qiao, who passed on the information, couldn't go on, obviously it would not be a good word.

"Stop, no need to say." Zhou Shaoyu's face sank. "You don't need to ask to know that An Ge is directing and acting by himself, who else can send thousands of soldiers and horses in that territory at this time and not be noticed by us? It's just that they are the most familiar with Yun Mengze. Damn, I can't really bully? Come on, order soldiers, dare to calculate me? If you can't kill her, whatever! ”

"No!" All the women stopped in unison, before reporting to Zhou Shaoyu, the women had already gathered together to discuss, which was more or less a breath and discussion, just to avoid Zhou Shaoyu's impulsiveness in anger.

You must know that 'benevolence' is the foundation of Zhou Shaoyu's life, but now some people are designing to ruin his reputation, and it is strange not to be angry.

"If Zhou Lang sends troops to recruit Baling, he is in the middle of it, and the world only thinks that Zhou Lang is just annoyed and angry." Li Qingzhao hurriedly persuaded. "Even if he wants to send troops, Zhou Lang shouldn't show up in person."

"So what should we do?" Zhou Shaoyu held back his anger and asked. Angry, but there's no need to send it to your own sister.

Seeing that Zhou Shaoyu was still calm, Li Qingzhao breathed a sigh of relief and said: "For today's plan, the best way is to let the world think that Zhou Lang you are still in the north, this matter is not difficult, the matter of Baling City has just passed, according to normal calculations, it will not spread to the north, but we have the big and small Qiao sisters to pass on, and we can let Bingzhou do some actions in the name of Zhou Lang to show that Zhou Lang you stay in the north." Subsequently, it can be added to the collection of poems by Shanhuai Pavilion for publicity. Of course, someone pretended to be a matter, Tanzhou naturally can't ignore it, and it is inevitable to send troops to oppress, but it can only be only attacked, otherwise it is inevitable that there will be a suspicion of retaliation. ”

"It's appropriate to deal with it this way, but, according to this meaning, wouldn't I be able to occupy Baling City in the short term?" Zhou Shaoyu frowned.

I really can't. My family naturally knows the truth of the matter, but the outside world can't know it. Even if a series of operations are whitewashed, there will always be people who will be suspicious, this is not the point, the point is that since An Ge has made this plan, he naturally has to ensure that there is no loss, it is foreseeable that at this moment, the people of Baling already hate Zhou Shaoyu, in this case, even if they are occupied, they will only be in trouble, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Zhou Shaoyu took a deep breath and forcibly calmed down a little, to be honest, it was the first time that he hated a person so much after so long since he crossed over, even if it was Xiao Yuwen who wiped his neck, it would not come to this point.

"This Ange is really calculating!" Zhou Shaoyu secretly hated. However, I have to admit that they are powerful, at least in terms of intelligence, they are really fighting, and it is estimated that it should be Yu Yunmengze who secretly recruited other Shui Kou in other names to become a separate force and impersonate him, and then An Ge appeared to the rescue with the righteous army, and only in this way can the tragic battle in Baling City be explained. In other words, people have been laying out for a long time.

"It's the concubine who is incompetent...... Xin Xianying is the most disappointed.

Zhou Shaoyu waved his hand and said, "I can't blame you." And this matter is not without benefits to you, no one is a victorious general, and no one can be considered a last resort, it used to be smooth sailing for too long, and it always took a setback. ”

"In this way, without proof, it is impossible to ask An Ge for the blame, and it is a joke to do so. One more thing to deal with is to make a high reward in the name of Tanzhou, showing a strong attitude, and it is necessary to find someone who is imposting. ”

It is one thing whether you can find it or not, it is important to show that the attitude is to show sufficient anger.

"That being the case, why don't my sailors directly send troops into Yunmengze and use this as an excuse to clean up. One can show a strong attitude, the second can be actual combat training, and the third is to further explore and understand Yun Mengze. Sending troops at such an opportunity, even if An Ge calculated, he would never dare to send troops to obstruct it. Sun Shangxiang proposed.

"Yes, just do it, but you still have to be more careful and pay attention to precautions, at present, in terms of strategy and calculation, An Ge is indeed extraordinary." Zhou Shaoyu instructed.

For the time being, they can only deal with it like this, the girls naturally have to prepare for the dispatch of troops, and Zhou Shaoyu should pay more attention to living in the shallow and pretending not to be in Tanzhou. Then before Sun Shangxiang officially left, he added one more sentence in private: "If it is possible, it is best to secretly arrest An Ge, but it is really not possible, ...... directly." Okay, too. ”

Between the words, he made a motion to wipe his neck.

Sun Shangxiang nodded, said goodbye and left, and then thought about it carefully, and was very puzzled in his heart. Such a hostile character, if there is a chance, it is naturally the best to kill it, so as to avoid future troubles, why should you focus on capturing them alive? You know, it's much harder to capture alive than to assassinate.

Could it be that Zhou Shaoyu still has the intention of subduing? Or is it too angry and wants to vent it in person? Presumably the latter should be the majority, otherwise, why don't you say it openly, and you have to secretly tell her in private, don't you have any bad intentions......

Sun Shangxiang's face was strange.

Hawkers, no matter what Zhou Shaoyu thinks, when something like this happens, naturally some people are happy. For example, Gao Yuyao, who sits in Jingshi.

"Aha, that's interesting. It was rare to see Zhou Shaoyu so deflated, if he had the opportunity, he really wanted to meet the Ange woman. Gao Yuyao was not light, and touched her belly that was getting bigger and bigger: "Eh, this bad boy, kicked again." ”

So many things have happened, naturally it is not done in a short period of time, and the current time is not far from the delivery period.

In fact, Gao Yuyao is not so relaxed, if she can still show up from time to time at the beginning, but as her belly gets bigger and bigger, she can't hide it, so naturally it is impossible to appear in front of people, and the place where she lives is surrounded by die-hard cronies, and she must not reveal half of the news. Fortunately, he also specially ordered Yi to summon a few big-bellied women from the clan into the palace to take care of them, and it was reasonable to let the imperial dining room serve food for pregnant women.

It's just that if you don't show up for too long, it will inevitably make the minister suspicious. Gao Yuyao can't help out of her illness now, even the little emperor can't see anyone, after a long time, it is inevitable that the ministers will be uneasy, there is no way, compared to the puppet useless little emperor, Gao Yuyao is the backbone of the current Liang, if Gao Yuyao has an accident, the Liang is estimated to be chaotic.

Up to now, the ministers have been on the table more than once, asking the Queen Mother to come forward, no matter how uncomfortable she is, it's always okay to show her face a little.

But here's the problem, how could Gao Yuyao come out, she could only delay, and the longer it was delayed, the greater the pressure. Just a few days ago, several prime ministers attempted to forcibly break into the forbidden palace.

"Queen Mother, Prime Minister Zhang Cheng came to ask, how to deal with the matter in Jingzhou." A female officer came to inquire.

"Huh? There's no hesitation. Send an envoy to Xiangyang to check whether Sun Shouyi died in battle normally, just make a show, and make a general to Sun Yu as appropriate. Let them make a fuss first, and then see. In addition, he ordered to correct the name of the regent, well, prepare some more things and send them to Tanzhou to appease...... That's it, draft it and send it to the mourning family to see. ”

Gao Yuyao is called a bad one, and he ordered Zhou Shaoyu to correct his name, which seems to be for him, but he sent the reward of condolences and appeasement to Tanzhou! What does this mean? said that Zhou Shaoyu was not actually in the state of Tanzhou? It's not a mess.

"By the way, let the Ministry of War order that the garrison supporting the defense of Huizhou be transferred to Chaisang to garrison, and the mourning family will not be as honest as Sun Shouren when they look at Sun Yu and An Ge's actions." Gao Yuyao finally added.

Heavy troops guarded Chaisang, that is, guarding an important waterway, but also in case there was a change in Jingzhou, and the possibility of relying on Chaisang to block the waterway to advance eastward and enter the Beijing division directly. There were already a lot of troops here, and if they are added at this moment, it is clear that they don't trust the new Sun Yu, or more precisely, it should be An Ge.

At the same time, no one expected that Sun Shouren would take the initiative to send a message and invite Xiao Xiao's wife to have a private meeting.

"General Sun is really guts." Looking at the sturdy man in front of her, Xiao Jiwen hugged her fists in admiration and praised. At this moment, she dared to ride out of the city alone to meet in the mountains on the outskirts of the city, wouldn't she be afraid that she would attack directly?

"It's not a certain guts, but I believe that Xiao Jiwen won't do this." Sun Shouren grinned, with a look of my belief in your character.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, both of which were not the same thing at all.

If Sun Shouren dies here with Xiao Jiaowen, then he will be regarded as a mortal enemy with the Sun family, and then the two cities of Xiangyang and Jiangling, which are firmly defended, will either support Sun Shouren's son to resist to the end. Either simply surrender to Sun Yu, no matter which one it is, it is not what Xiao Yuwen is willing to see.

Besides, since Sun Shouren invited him to meet at this time, he must have some ideas in his heart, and it was beneficial to her, so why take the risk?
