Yao Yu looked full of confidence, and when Chen Zhong wanted to say something more, he was stopped by Yao Yu waving his hand: "Okay Chen Zhong, let's not talk about this for now, you now lead people to Anlu one step ahead and further explore Chen Min's truth." Whether or not Chen Min's rebellion can be quelled depends on how much information your subordinates can gather. ”

Hearing this, Chen Zhong hesitated for a moment, then nodded vigorously and said yes, turned around and left.

And just like that, the brigade moved on.

Ten days later, the troops came to Jiangxia.

It stands to reason that Jiangxia Taishou at this time should be Tao Kan, that is, the great-ancestor of Tao Yuanming, Mr. Wuliu in the later generations.

As a representative figure of late blooming, Tao Kan became famous at the age of 50, and in the 26 years since then, he has put down the rebellion of Zhang Chang and Chen Min, and was awarded the title of Jiangxia Taishou.

After Wang Cheng stepped down, Tao Kan was promoted to the assassin of Jingzhou, and in internal affairs, he left no stone unturned in the original turbulent Jingzhou governance, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

Militarily, he recovered Xiangyang Xinye and other cities that were captured by Shile in the war, and stabilized the southeast defense line.

Not only that, after the Yongjia Rebellion and the southern crossing of Yiguan, Tao Kan participated in the rebellion of Su Jun, the homeless handsome.

Later, after his death, he was posthumously presented as the Great Sima.

It can be said that in that chaotic and chaotic era, Tao Kan can be regarded as a clear stream.

Before Yao Yu came, it was Tao Kan who dealt with Chen Min.

The two sides attacked each other, Chen Min was not an opponent, he was defeated by Tao Kan several times in a row, and was blocked from Jiangxia.

It can be said that if there is no Yao Yu's appearance, then Tao Kan will completely step on Chen Min to make his debut and stand firmly in the C position of the famous general.

After all, in the later life, this is a ruthless man who entered the Martial Temple.

However, Yao Yu's timing is in the favor.

A year ago, Bole Liu Hong, who promoted Tao Kan, died of illness.

As early as the founding of the dynasty, in the pacification of the southeast campaign, Emperor Wu appointed Sima Ling, Du Zhu, Wang Jun, Wang Hun, Wang Rong, Hu Fen and other six route armies as commanders to pacify Jiangdong.

Liu Hong joined the army as the late former governor of Jingzhou, Yanghu, and followed Du Zhen, and gradually grew into a famous general in this battle.

Four years ago, Zhang Chang rebelled, and Liu Hong received an order from the imperial court to go to Jingzhou Jiangxia to quell the rebellion.

It was at this time that Liu Hong vigorously promoted Tao Kan, and told Tao Kan that when the old man followed Yang Gong to join the army, Yang Gong said that I will definitely be able to take over his position in the future, and now you will definitely be able to take over the old man's position in the future.

Tao Kan, who is evaluated like this, if he is given the merits of pacifying Chen Min, then in the south, he will inevitably become an obstacle and opponent to Yao Yu's rise.

It's a pity, it's a pity that Liu Hong died of illness, after all, Tao Kan has already stood in the C position. Not much impact.

But the death of Tao Kan's mother made Tao Kan have to temporarily resign from his military position and go home to keep his filial piety.

This is also the reason why Tao Kan, who was supposed to stay in Jiangxia to deal with Chen Min, will disappear.

According to historical development, after Tao Kan left, Chen Min swelled up for a while, thinking that he was invincible in the world. It's a pity that in the same year, that is, this year, he was defeated by the United Imperial Court of the families in the territory. Of course, that's all for later.

At present, Tao Kan's departure has made Chen Min no longer careless, and has violated the Jiangxia border many times.

"Tao Kan is not here, in the past few months of Chen Min's expansion, it is an important battle for me to gain a firm foothold in Jingzhou!"

Yao Yu secretly figured out in his heart, so he asked his army to simply replenish in Jiangxia, and then sent Yao Bao, Kong Xiao, and Shen Cheng to command 2,000 cavalry, and 3,000 infantry to go to Anlu to station first.

This time he went south, and Yao Yu brought all his 6,000 cavalry over. Such behavior shows his determination to annex Jingzhou.

Before leaving, Yao Yu instructed Yao Bao not to act rashly after he arrived, and to wait until he arrived.

Yao Bao patted his chest and agreed: "Brother, don't worry, it's just a thief, I don't care about it yet, even if he really has 100,000 people, I will pick his head and give it to you." ”

"Don't mess around, we brought so many people with us when we went south this time, so Chen Minneng is obviously not a small minions in the land of Sanwu. In the case that Chen Zhong didn't figure out the situation, you should be honest with me. ”

was slapped by Yao Yu's head and face, Yao Bao snorted, lowered his head and sighed: "I know brother, don't be angry, I, I just want to help you solve your problems." ”

"It's not a matter of time and a half to solve problems, are you so powerful, can you cut down 100,000 people by yourself? As a general, what can you achieve by always being reckless? Okay, you can be honest with me. Sun Yi. ”

Sun Yi, the secretary of the army, sighed: "What's the matter? ”

"You follow the front first, otherwise, I always think that these reckless men will fight with Chen Min."

As he spoke, Yao Yu pointed at Yao Bao, Kong Xiao, Shen Cheng and others.

The three of them were very embarrassed, and Shen Cheng also looked at Yao Bao and Kong Xiao with a disgusted expression.

"My lord, I don't think they're as impulsive as they are. How calm I am. ”

"You can pull it down, you're no better. Go, remember, before the army arrives, if anyone dares to attack without permission, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people. ”

As soon as they agreed, Yao Bao and the three of them led their troops and rushed to Anlu first.

As for Yao Yu, he called Tao Kan to go home to guard his filial piety, and the temporary Jiangxia guarded the Lu River.

As one of the four major families in Jiangdong, the surname Lu was born, and among the Lu He clan, there have also been a generation of celebrities such as Lu Xun, Lu Kang, Lu Ji, Lu Yun, etc.

It's just that, unlike these bigwigs in the clan, Lu He's ability is mediocre, and relying on the relationship of the family, he is just a small official in Jiangxia County at this time.

Yao Yu called him over, and with Lu He's status, he didn't dare to refuse at all.

After all, after the imperial court defeated Eastern Wu and unified the world, the family from Jiangdong was already within the target of suppression, and in addition, his strength did not allow him and Yao Yu, the general of Zhennan, to support the army.

No, as soon as Yao Yu opened his mouth and shouted, Lu He ran to him, arched his hand and said, "General Yao, what do you command." ”

Yao Yu glanced at Lu He, who was less than thirty years old, with an elegant jade face and a good appearance.

It's a pity that it's just a bit confusing.

"How much money does Jiangxia have now?"

Lu He sighed, and then took out a bucket of bamboo slips and looked at it: "If you return to the generals and the army, Jiangxia has 30,000 stone of grain, 2 million money, and 5,420 county soldiers." ”

Yao Yu was a little stunned: "Only so much food? ”

Lu He nodded first, and then said: "General, there is a lot of food. You must know that although Jingzhou is located in the south, since the Zhangchang rebellion began four years ago, the Jiangxia area has often been robbed by homeless thieves. You want some today, he wants some tomorrow, where can Jiangxia store food? ”
