Chapter 448: Defend the Lujiang River
Hearing this exclamation, Jia Nian felt a little proud in his heart, but then he dispelled this emotion and slowly explained.
"Does Shibo know Guo Dapang and Lu Meng?"
"How do you not know, one person is the commander of Gepo Yellow Turban Canal, and the other person is the commander of Gepo Yellow Turban Canal. And I heard that this Guo Da Fat has also been gone for more than two years, and now the Ge Po Yellow Turban in the mountains is only Lu Qushuai's life.
As soon as Lu Kang's words came out, he thought of something, and his heart couldn't help beating violently. More than two years? Why is the Gepo Yellow Turban in the mountains so similar to Yuzhang? Just when the virtuous nephew left, this Daqu Shuai disappeared?
"Is there a connection between the virtuous nephew and this Guo Da Fat?"
"It's not a secret that Ge Po Yellow Turban Daqu Shuai Guo Dapang is the best friend of the little nephew, and Lu Meng is General Deng's brother-in-law"
"General Deng, that General Deng? But Dundown? ”
As if thunder was exploding in his ears, Lu Kang's mind went blank. No wonder, no wonder every time I encounter huge pressure in Lujiang, there will be abnormal movements in the mountains, and the original reason is here. Seven thousand soldiers? Now 7,000 soldiers and horses have been stationed in Anhui County, Huxukou and Chaohu, and they have been controlled by Liu Ye. If you add the 3,000 defenders of Lujiang, then it is not difficult to block Shouchun and Jiujiang County.
"If Sun Ce is killed at this time, 7,000 soldiers and horses will be able to go straight to the Marquis of Hefei, and it may not be difficult for Shibo to lead troops from the Marquis of Lu'an to take this place."
"No, if the two countries are at war and don't kill them, how can I, Lujiang, do this? Don't fall into an unkind place."
Lu Kang said to Jia Nian, his tone was unquestionable.
He is completely different from him, Wanxian is in his hands, and the Jia clan in Wanxian has long been destroyed. On the one hand, there is no support from blood relatives, and on the other hand, there is no bond? So he can kill and decide, but Lu Jiang can't and doesn't want to.
"How dare a nephew trap his uncle in an unkind place? It's just that they didn't kill Sun Ce, but they were afraid that when they arrived at the Marquis of Hefei, it would be the time to attack."
"Wu'er Lu Ji has led a thousand soldiers and horses to the Houguo of Lu'an, and he can form a horn with Chaohu to jointly deter the Marquis of Hefei"
"Moreover, in the past two years, Changhe Town has been relocated and rebuilt next to Chaohu Lake"
"If the soldiers of the Sun clan want to attack my Lujiang County from Chaohu Lake, then they will definitely take care of the Changhe Town next to it, so their first task is to pull out this Changhe Town that is inserted into Jiujiang County and relies on Chaohu Lake. lest after the army entered Chaohu, the Marquis of Hefei would be copied"
Lu Kang paused when he said this, and quickly thought about the next battle situation in his mind.
Looking at the pond, his eyes narrowed.
"There's a suggestion, I wonder if my nephew will be able to listen to it?"
"Say, Shipper"
"Give up Chaohu, attribute all the troops to Changhe Town, rely on the benefits of the city wall of Changhe Town, and coerce the Marquis of Hefei"
At the same time, he ordered the soldiers and horses stationed at the mouth of the Husu to closely monitor the dynamics of Chaohu Lake, if the Sun family dared to go south from Chaohu. Then the soldiers and horses of the Wet Mouth immediately dispatched to entangle the soldiers of the Sun clan in Chaohu. Then it was passed that the main force of Lujiang would arrive at that time, and the two sides would send troops to attack the Hefei Houguo at the same time."
"Sending troops from Lu'an and Changhe Town at the same time?"
"Exactly"
Lu Kang said in a firm tone, as a veteran of the battlefield, he found an excellent plan almost instantly. There are two spikes in Changhe Town and Chaohu, coupled with more than 10,000 troops on both sides, and they are naturally full of confidence in the next battle.
"Uncle's words are reasonable, my Yuzhang's soldiers and horses stationed in Lujiang are controlled by the military division Liu Ye, if my uncle needs the cooperation of our army, he can pass on the letter to Liu Junshi. The little nephew will let him cooperate as much as possible to ensure the safety of Lujiang County and drag down the soldiers and horses of Jiujiang."
"Doesn't my nephew personally sit in Lujiang?"
Lu Kang looked puzzled and asked Jia Nian.
A smile appeared at the corner of Jia Nian's mouth.
"Yuan Shu wants to annex my Yuzhang and Lujiang counties, and the little nephew doesn't want to just defend passively."
"Now there are more than 10,000 soldiers and horses guarding Lujiang, and after going to Changhe Town to have a look, they will immediately set off to return to Yuzhang, and will meet Ji Ling and Qiao Rui's department for a while."
A sense of pride spread around, and Lu Kang couldn't help but lift his spirits when he was infected.
But then there was a look of shock.
"Do you want to take advantage of the situation to annex Jiangnan?"
"Why not?"
Jia Nian asked Lu Kang rhetorically.
Then, without waiting for him to reply, he slowly analyzed.
Although Yuan Shu annexed the three counties in the south of the Yangtze River under the banner of exterminating Shanyue, coupled with the huge prestige of the fourth and third dukes, it seemed to have a firm foothold, but due to the short time, it was still too late to fully integrate. As long as Ji Ling and Qiao Rui's department are destroyed, then why can't these three counties be in the pocket? ”
"Besides, I'm the richest man in Yangzhou, as a wealthy family in Yangzhou, can't I take it all in?"
The voice sounded in Lu Kang's ears, and Jia Nian asked him.
Lu Kang's lips moved, and finally swallowed the words.
The heart of dominating the world has jumped in front of him, and he has the intention to stop it, but he thought that since Sun Changsha killed the state pastor, the killing of the state pastor and the Taishou in various places has sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. At this time, this nephew had 17,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, with Jingzhou on the outside and Lujiang on the inside. After several years of recuperation, the soldiers are well fed, and the intricate relationship between the wealthy families may really be able to get a glimpse of Yangzhou.
A question came to mind, if things came to that point, how should this nephew deal with Lujiang when he was sitting in Jiangnan?
In other words, do you want to participate in the battle for hegemony? He sighed in his heart, and then fell silent.
Well, I'll be thinking about it after it happens.
After all, the strength of Ji Ling and Qiao Rui's department is not weak, and Yu Zhang does not have much advantage when facing them.
"Although you have enough soldiers and food, the soldiers who followed Yuan Shu to conquer the south and the north are not weak, and you must not be careless in the battlefield conquest of Wangxian's nephew"
"Remember the teachings of Shibo, and my nephew will do his best to deal with it"
Lu Kang nodded slightly at Jia Nian, and then diverted from the topic. If someone had said that he wanted to fight for hegemony before, he would definitely order him to be killed without hesitation. But the way of the world has changed over the years, and there are many expectations, which can also leave some more way back for the Lu family.
"Since the virtuous nephew wants the land south of the Yangtze River, Shibo will help you to ensure that the 15,000 soldiers and horses of Jiujiang cannot go south"
"If time is urgent, I won't force you to stay in Lujiang County Mansion, deal with Chaohu affairs as soon as possible, and then return to Yuzhang"
"No"
Jia Nian replied to Lu Kang, and then walked in the direction in which he turned around.
Looking at Jia Nian's departing back, Lu Kang fell into deep thought, followed by a strong sense of melancholy.
As an official of the imperial court, how can you not be sad when you watch the world fall apart? But what can we do about it? The country is about to be broken, and it is necessary to protect the family.
