Yangtze!

The natural danger of Jiangdong, the lifeblood of Tiannan!

The Jiangdong warship with the banner of Wu character hanging high sailed in the turbulent river, stirring up layers of white waves, and everyone on board was excited and inexplicable.

Especially Lu Su, who had planned for a long time, couldn't help laughing.

That's Jingzhou!

The Huaihe River Basin is not in the hands and can still rely on the Yangtze River to defend it, but if you don't have Jingzhou, you won't have the entire territory of the Yangtze River, then Jiangdong will have nothing to defend.

It is difficult to defend Jingzhou, otherwise the Jingzhou Shi clan will not surrender directly, but learn from the Shu Sergeant clan to directly secede and protect themselves.

But it's not difficult to say, it's really not difficult, as long as you hold two places.

In the eyes of Luo Chu and other Wu people, there are two most important places in Jingzhou.

One of them is Xiangyang City at the junction of Nanyang County and Nanjun County, Luowen Gong built Hanyang Zhuji, the first city was built here, and it was the last guarantee for Luowen Gong to defend Chu State.

The Han River passes through the city of Yangyang, dividing it in two.

Jiangbei is Fancheng, Jiangnan is Xiangyang, the two cities are each other's horns, hold the Han River to rush, from the Nanyang Basin to the south of the army, Xiangyang is unavoidable, it is the important place for the soldiers to fight, Bai Qi flooded Xiangfan in this water, so that the Chu State ambushed millions of corpses, so far recorded in the history books.

The Jingzhou Shi clan controlled Zhao Hong through Xiangyang.

The second is Yiling City in Nanjun, which was built by the Chu State more than a thousand years ago in order to deal with the Ba State with a lot of manpower and material resources.

Once this city was built, the land of Bashu was trapped in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

The river channel hundreds of miles before Yiling was narrow, the river was turbulent, boats and boats often had accidents, and the roads on both sides were also rugged and bumpy, not to mention the large army, even a small group of pedestrians could not pass.

Yiling is connected to Zhangshui and Fushui in the north, which can lead to Xiangyang, and Yiling to the south, you can go to Wuling through Yidao, the land of Yiling, and can attack Bashu, coerce the Central Plains, and look at the Yangtze River to the east.

But once the Yiling is passed, the river suddenly opens up, the water flow is relatively gentle, and the roads on both sides enter the Pingchuan area where cars and horses can be carried, and the army can rush to the county of Nanjun and even the entire Jingzhou Prefecture - Jiangling City within one day!

Jingzhou will fall in an instant!

There are poems as proof -

Between the white emperor and the clouds, thousands of miles of Jiangling will be returned in one day.

The apes on both sides of the strait could not stop crying, and the light boat had already crossed the ten thousand mountains.

Surrounded by mountains on both sides of the river, the mountains and rocks are steep, the pines and cypresses in the mountains are verdant, Luo Chu is in an unprecedentedly happy mood, and when he gets Jingzhou, Jiangdong is an indestructible wall!

The residual waves, lapping on the side of the boat, made a burst of sound, and a bright moon in the sky, sprinkled with silver light, reflecting the magnificent waves of the river.

In Jiangling City, Liu Biao's eldest son Liu Qi walked drunk in the desolate and uninhabited courtyard.

The moonlight was extremely bright, and the grass and trees on the ground were delicate, but it could not illuminate the deep darkness under his eyes.

He stumbled along, with a look on his face that seemed to cry but not cry, and to laugh rather than laugh.

I stumbled and fell into a bottomless dry well, only a pop was heard, there was no struggle, and the bright moonlight in the sky could not shine into the darkness of the dry well.

Perhaps in the history books, Liu Biao's biography will record a sentence "The eldest son Qi died by mistake", or there is no such person, and the history books are in the dust, but they are also extremely stingy.

Outside the city of Gangneung, the rivers are surging and the moonlight is long.

Cai Mao and Kuai Yue, the leaders of the Jingzhou Shi clan, surrounded the new Jingzhou pastor Liu Cong and waited quietly on the shore.

In the midst of the darkness, the tall building boat rode the wind and waves, and even the ground shook when it docked on the shore.

The first to jump off the boat was a soldier wearing Xuan armor, and everyone's eyes suddenly froze, this is one of the elite troops of Jiangdong Wu Kingdom and Danyang soldiers side by side.

Solving troubles means "invincible, can solve difficulties".

After Xie Fuwei got off the ship, the scholars of Jingzhou saw the lord of Jiangdong Wu, the gentle and elegant son Chu, and the years seemed to have brewed wine on his body.

Liu Cong stepped forward and said loudly in a somewhat immature accent according to his uncle's instructions: "Han Jingzhou Mu Cong, lead the ministers of Jingzhou to meet the Duke of Yuzhang County!" ”

Jingzhou Mu Liu Cong, Jiangdong Wu Kingdom everyone raised their eyebrows, and hung up a look of Ran.

No one asked about Liu Biao's whereabouts.

No one asked about Liu Qi's whereabouts.

Luo Chu's voice was calm and gentle, and he said loudly: "The state pastor is polite, after tonight, we will be a family."

There is no king in the state of Wu, it is not the country of the prince alone, but the country of the subjects of the state of Wu, and Jingzhou will be the subjects of the state of Wu in the future.

In the future, we should work together to cheer up Wu Guocai. ”

Seeing that Luo Chu really had a good attitude, the Jingzhou scholars were all smiling, and the group surrounded the people in Jiangdong and went to Jiangling City.

In the moonlight, the water of the Yangtze River outside Jiangling City, sparkling and shining, was the capital of the Chu State more than a thousand years ago.

This time, Luo Chu may not have the meaning of inspecting here.

After all, if Jing Chu and Jiangdong were to become one, it would be for the nascent Wu State.

The former Wu County and the current Gusu County are too remote and located in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, which is a strategic low-lying place south of the Huai River in the Qinling Mountains.

However, the matter of moving the capital is a big matter, and Luo Chu is sure that as long as he dares to mention it, all the scholars in Jiangdong will oppose it in unison!

Everyone welcomed Luo Chu on the main seat, and then Wu Guowenwu sat on the left hand, and Jingzhou Wenwu sat on the right hand, and the distinction between Jing and Wei was clear.

This is not only a manifestation of the lack of mutual trust between Jiangdong and Jingzhou, but also an external manifestation of the current political situation in Wu.

That is, the stability of the state of Wu is tied to Luo Chu alone!

If he is there, Wu will have the possibility of competing for dominance in the world.

In his absence, there was immediately a bitter factional struggle until one faction won and the others surrendered.

Luo Chu looked around and then slowly spoke: "Jingzhou Mu is willing to surrender to my Wu country, and my father is overjoyed.

Now this prince is the chief of the regency meeting of Wu State, and after the joint discussion of the rulers of Wu State, Jingzhou Mu is the assassin of Jingzhou of Wu State, and he is included in the Regency Conference.

Nian is still young in Jun, and he went to Wu County to lead the affairs of Jingzhou's assassination, are you willing? ”

Politically, remote collar is not receiving, no matter how high the virtual title is, it is not as good as the low real power, just as the three princes of Wanshi are not as good as the Shangshu order of Qianshi.

The Jingzhou scholars were overjoyed when they heard this, and transferred Liu Cong to a false title, which proved the sincerity of Wu Guo, and Liu Cong immediately knelt down and bowed to thank him for his grace under the reminder of his uncle Cai Mao.

After accepting the allegiance and surrender of the Jingzhou Shi clan, Luo Chu asked the question he was most concerned about, "Can Xiangyang be stable?"

Is there a way to Shu? ”

The four major scholars of Jingzhou were all born in Xiangyang, Huang Chengyan and Pang Tong are all famous people in Xiangyang, and when they heard Luo Chu's inquiry, Pang Tong immediately stepped forward and said: "Qiyu County Prince, Xiangyang is as stable as a river rock."

The access to Shu is controlled by Liu Yan, and it is not easy to attack Shu. ”

The person before Luo Chu met was quite ugly, he was really the only one he had seen in his life, and when he saw him talking eloquently and quite stylishly, he guessed that this was Jingzhou Pang Tong.

Immediately, he asked in a strange voice: "You are Pang Shiyuan, a famous man in Jingzhou?" It is said that the scholars of Jingzhou call you 'the only one who is high, and the first in Jingchu'? ”

Everyone in Jiangdong looked at Pang Tong, and in the battle between Jiangdong and Jingzhou, Pang Tong had frequent clever plans, and he could almost be called a one-man fighter group in Jiangdong.

I didn't expect it to be this person.

This is also too ugly!

Especially in front of Luo Chu and Zhou Yu, who are famous for Jiang Zuo, almost everyone couldn't help frowning.

Pang Tong was first overjoyed when he heard the eagerness in Luo Chu's words, and then he felt the emotions of everyone in Jiangdong, and suddenly his heart was blocked, and a sharp color flashed in his eyes.

He has been discriminated against since he was a child because of his appearance, even if he shows off his talent, but he is still discriminated against everywhere, and his personality is very extreme, which is why he is very biased.

This group of Jiangdong people, what a damn!

Luo Chu looked at a bearded white man sitting at the end of everyone in Jingzhou, and he felt quite angry, he was very familiar with this person Jiangdong everyone, it was Huang Zhong, the general of Jingzhou, ten thousand enemies!

Luo Chu retracted his gaze and asked Pang Tongdao, "Shiyuan, how is Nanyang Taishou Zhao Hong?" ”

The weight of Nanyang, the key to Heluo!

Chang'an, Luoyang, not Nanyang, Erjing is unstable Wu wants to go to the Central Plains, it must seize Nanyang, so Luo Chu asked.

Pang Tong asked with a little temptation: "Zhao Hong and I Jingzhou have always been inseparable, and they are defending themselves in Nanyang County, can the county prince ask for it?" ”

Luo Chu immediately shook his head, what he had to do now was to integrate the interior of the Wu Kingdom, so he said, "Naturally, it won't work.

If the situation is like today, it will affect the whole body.

The land of Nanyang is a matter of great importance, and as soon as our army moves, it will be targeted by everyone.

If it is attacked by a group, it will be too late to regret it. ”

Pang Tongjun was slightly very high, so he naturally knew the disadvantages of attacking Nanyang, and he was relieved when he heard what Luo Chu said.

Received the entire Jingchu Seventy percent of the land at once, and Nanyang and Shuzhong couldn't move lightly for the time being, so Wu Guoda's steps forward slowed down suddenly.

After the trade route between Jingzhou and Yangzhou was completely liberalized, Wu immediately ushered in vigorous prosperity and development.

This stability was maintained for a long time.

Until Luo Chu's idea of moving the capital spread, and then quickly turned into a rumor and spread throughout the river.

From the fishermen at the head of the Yangtze River to the small people at the end of the Yangtze River, they are all chatting about the relocation of the capital of Wu State.

It didn't take long for Lu Su, Er Zhang, Gu Yong and other ministers of Wu to arrive at Luochu Mansion, but Zhou Yu did not come back as the governor.

But everyone in the world knows that Lu Su's opinion represents Zhou Yu's opinion.

In Luochu's mansion, everyone who used to be political enemies had solemn faces, and Gu Yong, as the current prime minister of Wu, has a lofty status, and he directly looked around everyone: "It is absolutely impossible to move the capital."

Jiangdong is where the prosperity and luck of my Wu country lie, here is the foundation of my Wu country, the capital is here, and it is eternal for thousands of years, how can I migrate to the land of Jingchu with poor mountains and bad waters? ”

Saying that, he glanced at Lu Su, Lu Su slowly nodded in agreement with Gu Yong's point of view, he didn't agree with moving the capital, but he still said in a low voice: "But this reason doesn't work, the county prince will not approve of this statement." ”

Luo Chu and Xiao Qiao came out together, after so many years, Xiao Qiao is still the same teenager, childish and sweet, a pair of beautiful people back then, but now it seems to be a person of two eras.

"The Princess!"

Although everyone was very dissatisfied with Luo Chu's decision to move the capital, they still clasped their fists in unison, and after Luo Chu returned the salute, he didn't seem to see the solemn atmosphere in the hall, and asked with a smile: "You guys are here to move the capital to rumors?" ”

Seeing everyone nodding, Luo Chu asked, "Since you are here for this, do you have anything to say?" ”

When Lu Su heard this, he immediately said loudly: "The county duke, the subordinate thinks that it is not appropriate to move, as early as ten years ago, the subordinate once told you that I want to dominate Jiangdong, one to seize Jingzhou, and the other to capture Huaisi."

Why?

Because guarding the east of the Yangtze River must guard the Yangtze River!

Now Jingzhou is in the hands of my Wu country, our army can be fortified in Yiling and Xiangyang, whether it is Shuzhong along the Yangtze River downstream, or Nanyang along the Han River downstream, have become a rootless source, the western line of my Wu country is stable like a towering Mount Tai, solid as gold!

But this is not the case on the eastern front, guarding the river must guard Huai, now the original Jiujiang County, although Huainan County is in the hands of my Wu State, but it is not stable.

Cao Cao and Liu Bei are both eyeing me and coveting the north of the Yangtze River, and the county prince has set up a large army in Huainan to make Gongjin sit in the town, isn't it because of the great pressure on the eastern front?

The subordinates thought that the next opponents of my Wu State should be Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and the capital should be located in Jiangzuo.

If he wanted to move the capital, his subordinates thought that they could move to Jianye.

It was closer to Huainan and could provide food, grass and soldiers more quickly. ”

Lu Su's words were well-founded and loud, and everyone in the hall immediately applauded.

Gu Yong couldn't help but admire.

Although he was born in the sixth surname of Wu County, he was not a person who completely absorbed the interests of the family, otherwise Luo Chu would not have let him serve as the prime minister of Wu.

Gu Yong knew that it was impossible for the capital of Wu to stay in Gusu, which was too remote and could only be used as the capital of the Jiangdong secession regime at most.

It is acceptable for the capital to move to Jianye compared to to Jiangling.

Luo Chu's face was full of smiles, Wu Guo was really full of talents, and he partially agreed with Lu Su's words.

After pondering for a while, he said: "What Zijing said is all about seeking the country, but it may be that you have lived in Jiangdong for too long, and you are a little blind.

Cao and Liu will never attack Huainan first, and Jizhou is what the two soldiers are referring to.

When Cao Cao was crowned Duke of Wei, he was headed by Wei County.

Although Liu Bei established the state of Chu, looking at its movements, he wanted to establish the capital in Qingzhou.

If I move to Jianye from the state of Wu, it will definitely arouse the vigilance of Cao Cao, the king of Wei, and Liu Bei, the king of Chu, wouldn't it be to make wedding dresses for the state of Zhao and the state of Yan?

Bengong went to Jiangling because he got the news that Liu Yan, the king of Shu, was not in good health, and Liu Yan and Zhang Lu, the king of Hanzhong, had always had conflicts, so he may not be able to find an opportunity to attack Shu.

Although my Wu country has Yiling, but it is not really as stable as Mount Tai, only by attacking Shu and thoroughly mastering the entire Yangtze River, can it be called peace of mind! ”

As soon as Luo Chu's words fell, everyone in the hall fell silent, but these words still could not convince everyone present.

Seeing this situation, Luo Chu knew that it was not possible to move the capital for the time being.

Born in the Luo family, he rolled his eyes, and no longer persuaded everyone, but said: "I went to Jiangling before, and the Jingzhou scholars entertained my father and Zhuqing, and some Jingzhou celebrities wanted to be married.

Among them, there is a beautiful lady Cai who is famous in Jingzhou, and the daughter of Huang Chengyan, a famous man in Jingzhou, and the four major families of Xiangyang are married to each other, just like the six surnames of Wu County.

I don't know what you think? ”

Marriage?

Since ancient times, the easiest way to get closer is to get married.

The four major families in Jingzhou are all Xiangyang scholars, not Jiangling scholars.

In Luo Chu's view, it is not that moving to Jiangling will definitely damage the interests of the Jiangdong Shi clan.

As long as there are enough interests in Nanjun, or even in the adjacent Changsha County or Jiangxia County, it is okay.

Everyone present was a smart person, and they all showed a thoughtful expression.

In order to heal the ubiquitous political rift in the state of Wu, Luo Chu decided to use means to get the big clans to marry each other.

He could see the dangers, but there was no such thing as the best of both worlds.

Now that Wu Guozhong's interests are intertwined and complicated, it is not easy for him to maintain this chariot and keep rushing forward.

Manpower is sometimes exhausted!

Xie Taifu Hanxue collected the day and talked about the history of the paper with his children, and asked: "In the late Han Dynasty, the countries of Wu were the most powerful, and the talented people were all overwhelmed by it, why not?" ”

The brother said: "There are many people who draw benefits, each has his own needs, so he has a fight." ”

The brother and daughter said: "Dugusu, if you want to guard Jiangzuo, you can't fight; Du Jianye, want to attack Huaisi, out of Qingxu; Dujiangling, if you want to attack Shuzhong, out of Hanzhong, those who draw benefits are easy to break, and those who hold the national strategy and are different, it is difficult to peace, so there is a fight! ”

Gong Da laughed and was happy, that is, the big brother Wu Yi female Dao Yun, and the wife of the Duke of Gusu County! - "The World Speaks New Words"
