Chapter 554: Nine Truths and One Hypothetical Scheme
"General Long doesn't know if it's true, it was really only five thousand before."
In the lobby of the Liyang County Ya, Han Zong stood in place at a loss.
Although he tried to explain, he had witnessed it himself, and now he couldn't speak.
Seeing Han Zong's embarrassment, Zhu Huan, who was sitting opposite, was secretly refreshed, and said that General Long was really powerful, and it seemed that he was about to do it.
Long Xiang was indeed curious, but he didn't intend to target Han Zong at this time, so he turned his head to look at Lu Su.
Lu Su understood, and explained: "General Han, please sit down, it's not that your military situation is wrong, in fact, Ling Zun's use of troops is very stable, and some of his extra soldiers are actually temporarily recruited in Danyang." ”
"I think the total number of people is at least tens of thousands, that is, more than half of them are newly recruited? But they don't look like recruits."
Long Xiang frowned, puzzled in his heart.
Lu Su nodded and replied: "Danyang has always produced elite soldiers, and many soldiers are from Orion, so they brought their own martial arts before joining the army, but recruiting so many people in a short period of time, I estimate that most of them are Shanyue people, I heard that General Han often quells rebellions in Danyang, and he should have accumulated a lot of prestige." ”
"It makes sense."
Long Xiang finally understood what was going on, and thought of a plan through Lu Su's analysis.
After ten days of rapid marching, another battle was fought, and the soldiers who came from Wu County were very tired.
Long Xiang organized the crowd to eat some food, and then ordered Xu Chu to settle the generals to rest, but left Lu Su and Han Zong behind.
Han Zong's character is despicable but not stupid, but he understands the purpose of Long Xiang bringing him to Liyang, but he doesn't know if he can say that he can move his father to betray Sun Quan by promising the food in those two counties, and he has been beating the drum in his heart.
Seeing Long Xiang leave him, Han Zong guessed that he was going to come to the mission.
He originally complained that Long Xiang was impatient, but the other party didn't persuade him to surrender.
"General Han, what do you think of Zijing's analysis of the composition of Ling Zun's forces?"
"Huh? Yeah. ”
Han Zong was stunned for a moment, and nodded suddenly: "Mr. Lu said it very well, my father has been quelling rebellions in Danyang all the year round, so he is naturally familiar with the Shanyue community, so it is very easy to recruit troops." ”
"If that's the case." Long Xiang deliberately lengthened his voice, and then reversed the conversation: "Ling Zun may be in big trouble."
"Uh" Han Zong smiled awkwardly and replied: "The soldiers under your command are brave, and my father's newly recruited soldiers are naturally no match for them, and trouble is inevitable."
Long Xiang shook his head lightly, sighed and said: "The general misunderstood, what I just meant was that Ling Zun did things too much, I'm afraid Sun Quan won't spare him, and General Han can't ignore it."
"What do you mean?"
Han Zong scratched his head and looked puzzled.
Long Xiang glanced at Lu Su, then looked at Han Zong and asked, "I remember you once said that Ling Zun has a deep friendship with the Sun family, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to persuade him to surrender?" ”
"Yes, but the last general is willing to give it a try."
"Ling Zun has no official status in Danyang, but he was ordered to be stationed in Wanling, but he recruited thousands or tens of thousands of recruits in such a short period of time, what do you think Sun Quan will think? Is it to praise him for his ability to serve as a general? Or is there something else going on? ”
After listening to Long Xiang's words, Han Zong beat the drum in his heart, but he said:
"My father has always been loyal to the Sun family, and Sun Quan should not suspect that he has other plans."
"Hehe, Taishi Ziyi only privately asked for reinforcements and rations, and in the end he was persecuted for Sun Quan's intolerance, but you pinned your hopes on Sun Quan's generosity?"
Halfway through his words, Long Xiang deliberately stopped to observe.
Seeing that Han Zong lowered his head and didn't answer, he continued: "It's true that Ling Zun has deep qualifications, but now that you are in front of me, and Ling Zun is in the back, if you are Sun Quan, what will you think?" ”
"I see."
Han Zong nodded frequently, and finally clenched his fists and said sonorously: "The last general knows how to persuade his father."
"No, you don't know enough."
Long Xiang shook his head slightly, raised two fingers, and said in a deep voice: "There are two indispensable points for recruiting soldiers in troubled times, one is that the prestige of the generals needs to be high enough, and the other is that they need rich money and food reserves, otherwise what will the soldiers eat?" There are many prestigious generals in Jiangdong, but there are not many who rely on their own food to recruit troops, and there are very few people like Zhu Xiumu who have a rich family background. ”
"The last general doesn't understand it"
Han Zong heard it in a fog, scratching his head and looking at Long Xiang stupidly.
"Huh." Long Xiang smiled and changed the topic again: "Yao Ji Commercial Bank account book incident, I believe General Han has heard about it, right?" ”
"Yes."
Han Zong replied with a puzzled expression.
Long Xiang paved the way for a long time, and only then did he throw out his arguments.
"Sun Quan loves money so much, and the money and food that Ling Zun used to recruit soldiers must be the treasury of various places in Danyang, that is, he took Sun Quan's money and grain to recruit troops and horses for himself, even if the starting point was good, but with Sun Quan's consent? Think about it again. ”
"This" Han Zong was dumbfounded when he heard this, and finally muttered: "It seems that only by returning to the general can my Han family escape the catastrophe."
"The children can be taught."
Long Xiang nodded with satisfaction, "You go and get a good night's sleep first, and then go to persuade Lingzun early tomorrow morning." ”
"The last general can't sleep, can you do it now."
Han Zong didn't know when Sun Quan would arrive, where would he sleep at this time? I am impatient to find my father.
"Well, I can't delay your filial piety."
Long Xiang hesitated slightly, then waved his hand and said: "You go to Lei Yuanduan to get the back of the tribe, and by the way, send the letters you brought from Wu County to General Han Lao, all of them are letters to report safety, which can be regarded as my meeting gift to Ling Zun." ”
"Thank you, General."
Han Zong excitedly hugged his fists and thanked him, but he was not excited about the meeting gift, but excited about being able to get back the three hundred parts.
This shows that Long Xiang finally treats him as his own, that is, the four counties can be cashed in.
Waiting for Han Zong to leave the county hall, Lu Su came to Long Xiang's side, stroked his palm and sighed: "I haven't seen it for ten months, Yunqi has made progress in debate, Han Zong was slapped by you, and he didn't know it."
Long Xiang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This is also a matter of no choice, Jiangdong Chaotang is much more complicated than Hefei, if I don't have any real skills, I won't be eaten alive by them?" ”
"Do you think Han Zong can persuade his father to surrender?"
"I don't know, but the meeting gift I prepared for Han Dang, I believe it will give Sun Quan a big surprise."
Hearing this, Lu Su frowned and asked curiously: "I have read the family letters of some soldiers, it seems that they are indeed the content of reporting peace, you should have spent a lot of effort to get these, what is the purpose?" ”
"Haha."
Long Xiang smiled leisurely: "Since you can hide it from Zijing, it seems that you can also hide it from Sun Quan, and the family letters to Han Dang's department are all reports of safety, while the family letters of other generals are mixed with a small number of persuasion letters, and it is extremely difficult to find out whether the nine truths are true or false." ”
"Original."
Lu Su suddenly realized, and praised Long Xiang's clever plan.
It was completely dark outside the lobby, and Long Xiang and Lu Su were reunited after a long absence, and there were many questions to be exchanged.
When he heard that Zhou Yu's death was re-investigated and Sun Quan's wife, concubine, brother and sister were treated kindly, Lu Su couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
"I think Jiangdong's military and political circles will praise Yunqi's actions, and the Sun family should not be hated, by the way, if Jiangdong is completely pacified in the future, have you ever thought about how to settle Sun Quan's wife, concubines, brothers and sisters?"
"If Sun Quan is willing to surrender, it is okay to return it to him, but the possibility is very small, so he can only keep it or."
Long Xiang suddenly looked at Lu Su in the middle of his words, and said in his heart that this guy's wife is weak, maybe you can give him a mandarin duck score?
