Chapter 294: Divide Jiangdong and make a forced landing on Zhou Yu

With Sun Cening's unyielding death, Qiantang and Yuhang counties were successfully taken by Guan Yu, and the power of the Sun family was completely swept away.

After Guan Yu entered the city, he arranged for someone to bury Sun Ce, but the tombstone will never write on the tombstone that Cao Cao gave Sun Ce the official position of "Yangzhou Pastor" after the outbreak of the edict incident, only the old official title of Sun Ce before the outbreak of the edict incident.

In order to show that Liu Bei's camp only recognized the holy decree of Emperor Xudu, before the edict of the cloth belt, and then Cao Thief's coercion and order were not accepted. But for the generals and civil officials who once belonged to the Sun family, they must also be appeased.

In particular, Zhang Zhao had already surrendered in Moling, and Zhang Hong finally negotiated terms with Guan Yu as Sun Ce's envoy during the Qian Tang Dynasty, and Guan Yu also agreed, so Zhang Hong surrendered. Therefore, the reception of the civilian system is actually quite peaceful, mainly because the military generals in various places are still a little troublesome.

Then Guan Yu personally condoled Mrs. Wu and Wu Jing, so that they did not have to worry and recuperate.

also said that the world is in dispute, and the crime is not as good as the family, and Sun Ce's crime lies in not distinguishing between loyalty and treachery, listening to Cao thief, and acting for the tiger. Since the crime stops there, it can be eliminated by death, and no longer be pursued.

Guan Yu also asked people to leave some money, food and materials, but they were thrown out by Mrs. Wu, saying that they didn't need it, she was sick and she didn't know how long she would live, and she didn't care. Guan Yu didn't insist anymore.

The direct family of the Sun family chose to transfer because of fear, and only Wu Jing's family stayed. Guan Yu said that he would give advice to his eldest brother, express an idle position for Wu Jing's son Wu Fen, receive a salary, and provide for Mrs. Wu and Wu Jing.

After the pacification of Qiantang, south of Zhejiang, there are still two territories in the Lanxijiang Plain and the Ningshao Plain, but there is no need to fight, as long as the horse is staked to receive.

Even if there is a slight conflict, it is all against the defeated army of the Sun family who fled as a coward, as well as some Shanyue tribes - it is also ironic, among those Shanyue people, some tribes just want to oppose the Han, the so-called help Sun to fight Liu or help Liu to fight Sun, it is all nonsense, the essence is that whoever is in power in the local area, they will unite with foreign forces to resist the local Han princes.

Of course, there are also Shanyue tribes who are relatively naturalized and willing to surrender.

In general, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun roughly assessed that it would take at least one or two months to run to all the counties of Huiji south of Zhejiang. It will be three months before a new official is to be put in charge.

The terrain of the mountainous areas of southern Zhejiang is much more rugged than that of the North Zhejiang Plain and the Taihu Lake Plain, and the mountain roads are very difficult to walk, and the time required to receive the same area of land can be several times slower than that of the Taihu Lake Plain.

If you want to purge the newly popped rogue stragglers, it will be delayed until at least the second half of the year. And the problem of Yamagoe is difficult to say, there is no legal time. So in the first half of this year, Guan Yu's troops could not be diverted for other purposes, and Liu Bei's camp basically had to recuperate for a while to digest the territory.

In history, after Sun Quan completely mastered Jiangnan, he was entangled with Shanyue for many years, and this matter was not solved by force alone. The key is to develop the productive forces, improve the infrastructure in the south of the Yangtze River, give the people in the mountainous areas more land that can be cultivated, and then appropriately use industry and commerce to attract the mountain people to migrate to the plains to make a living.

Guan Yu didn't worry about these things personally, he asked Zhao Yun to take the lightly armed troops south to enclose the land, and after he settled the situation in Qiantang, he returned to Wu County, and discussed local governance issues with Gu, Lu and other Jiangdong gate lords, and fully restored the stability of Jiangdong as soon as possible.

He also wrote a letter to Zhuge Jin to report the victory, and also reported the victory to Liu Bei, who was in Wuchang.

After Zhuge Jin received the letter, he immediately rushed to Wu County from Moling to discuss governance matters together - and in fact, Zhuge Jin was worried about another thing in his heart, because after Guan Yu took Qian Tang, he didn't find Sun Ce's other clansmen, only Mrs. Wu and Wu Jing's sisters and brothers who were sick, and a bunch of servants and maids of the Sun family.

Guan Yu was arrogant and couldn't bear it, he felt that the rest of the Sun family was not guilty, not to mention that he had buried Sun Ce, and Mrs. Wu also threw out the money and food he sent, indicating that the other party didn't believe that he "wouldn't kill them all", so he didn't bother to look for it again.

The generals of the Sun family who were willing to stay basically surrendered, and Guan Yu accepted them, and as for who was missing, Guan Yu did not go to search for them. Cheng Pu and Han Dang, the two northern generals, have followed the Sun family for three generations, and now that the Sun family has fallen, they are unwilling to stay in the south anymore and flee on their own, which is normal, as long as they don't help Liu Bei's enemies.

But Zhuge Jin was much more sensitive than Guan Yu, and he knew that Guan Yu was underestimating Sun Quan, so he hurried to Wu County and went to the front line to understand the latest situation.

As soon as he arrived in Wu County, Guan Yu set up a banquet in advance to pick up Zhuge Jin.

Zhuge Jin also had no intention of eating and drinking, and after three rounds of drinking, he asked about Sun Quan's whereabouts: "Why didn't Yun Chang send someone to search carefully, and what about the whereabouts of Sun Quan and others?" ”

Guan Yu seemed to be concerned, but he didn't deliberately pursue the result, so he replied casually:

I also sent someone to ask, saying that he had escaped overseas with Zhou Yu. These people are still young, they have no sin, and they have no real power, and the Sun family is not popular in Wu. Since his mother didn't believe that the eldest brother was willing to let them live, there was no need to arrest them. I'm afraid that it will damage my eldest brother's reputation and make those who come after me mistakenly think that we are all killed.

If Ziyu thinks it's inappropriate, she can continue to investigate. The counties in southern Zhejiang have not yet received it, and maybe the Sun family is cunning and rabbit three caves, and some of them have withdrawn to southern Zhejiang. ”

Zhuge Jin shook his head: "Of course I'm not worried about Sun Quan, but Zhou Yu has a lot of military strategy, so we can't let him vote for other princes and become our enemy."

In my opinion, if Zhou Yu runs south, it will be nothing, will Jiaozhou Shixie dare to accept him? As long as you dare, with the ability of Shi Xie, you can't control Sun Quan and Zhou Yu at all, and sooner or later you will be anti-guest.

But if Zhou Yu runs north, the situation will not be good, and we must not let Zhou Yu vote for Cao Cao. Taking advantage of the fact that Qian Tang Xin has only been occupied for three or four days now, Zhou Yu may not have time to transfer too far.

Our army should use the navy to intercept and inspect. Ziyi, Lu Yi, and Zhang Duo can continue to lead the sea ships and naval forces to patrol daily along Wu County and Haiyan. The warships of the Sun family's navy are not as fast as ours, and if there is a movement, most of them can be intercepted. ”

(Note: Lu Yi has no words so far, and he is just 18 years old after the New Year)

When Guan Yu heard this, he also thought it was true, he was too concerned about his reputation at the beginning, and he didn't want his eldest brother to fall into the notoriety of killing everything, so as not to recruit rebellion in the future. Ziyu is still thoughtful, letting go of Sun Ce's children is not the same as letting Zhou Yu go, Zhou Yu still has to be arrested.

Even if you can't use it, you can't let it go.

At the beginning, Guan Yu also had just ended the war, there were too many things, and he was reminded to change it immediately.

Zhuge Jin originally had some specific details that he wanted to explain, but seeing that Guan Yu's attitude was so sincere, he wouldn't say more on this occasion, and when the time came, he would convey it to Tai Shici and Lu Yi.

Anyway, Guan Yu has already supported his plan, and the specific implementation can be adapted.

Taking advantage of today's reception, representatives of other local county wang clans in Wu County were also there, Zhuge Jin didn't want to keep pulling Guan Yu to talk about military affairs in a whisper, just by the way, he tried to test the possibility of personnel adjustments, and buried a few ambushes for the long-term peace and stability of Wu Hui.

After a while, Gu Yong brought his nephew Lu Yi and came over to toast Zhuge Jin, and all kinds of praise were endless.

Zhuge Jin said tentatively in front of Guan Yu and other family leaders:

"Lu Lang has contributed a lot to the imperial court, and the land of Wu has not been restored before, in order to protect you, he does not dare to give official positions, so as not to affect the clan.

Now that the Sun clan has been wiped out, there will be little place for water warfare in the world in the future, I don't know if Lu Lang is a civil or a military position? ”

Lu Yi was still a little nervous in the face of Zhuge Jin. Although he had served for Liu Bei's camp a few times before, for nearly a year, he really hadn't met Zhuge Jin in person, and he was only contacted through Buqi and others.

Through Bu Qi's retelling, he knew Zhuge Jin's far-sightedness, but he was afraid that his selfishness would be seen through, so he hesitated a little, but still took the initiative to express his position:

"Although there may not be many opportunities for the generals of the navy to make contributions in the future, the young man encountered a family upheaval, and he has been wanting to take revenge on the Sun family for several years, and he has studied the art of war and tactics hard.

If I am asked to govern the place, I am afraid that I will delay the people of one side, or continue to be the general of a naval army, even if I have no meritorious service, I can still ensure the peace of the sea and frontier. ”

Zhuge Jin is quite satisfied with this answer, if Lu Yi does not interfere in internal affairs, the Lu family's population is now withered, and it is difficult to restore to the power of the "Jiangdong Four Valves", and the land annexation problem of the big families in Wu can also be alleviated.

But Zhuge Jin still said: "You are still young, why set limits for yourself, you can't be a civil official, you can also learn slowly while leading troops." Then for the time being, you will continue to lead the naval army, block the mouth of the Yangtze River, and patrol and clear the fleeing pirates around you.

After that, when you have time to spare, you will slowly learn some civil and political affairs on your own. The specific military position will be decided by me when I play the main role. ”

Lu Yi hurriedly thanked him and toasted Zhuge Jin with three glasses of wine.

Zhuge Jin arranged to understand Lu Yi, and turned to Gu Yong.

On the way he came, he also thought of a way to prevent the Jiangdong family from sitting on a big divide - in history, Sun Quan was able to sit firmly in his position because of the separation of power with the four warlords of Jiangdong, and he survived the transitional danger period after Sun Ce's death, but it also laid the root of the curse for the Sun Wu regime.

Later, most of Jiangdong's military forces were the private soldiers of the generals, and the army followed the generals, and the centralization of power was far less than that of Ji Han and Cao Wei. The enclosure of the family and the division of spheres of influence are also more serious than those of the other two.

Later, when Sun Hao, the last generation, succeeded to the throne, he wanted to take back some of his power, so he tried to move the capital, from Jianye to Wuchang, and wanted to transfer the top rulers of the four lords of Jiangdong from their hometowns to become officials in other places, so that their control over Wuhui might be slightly reduced.

However, Sun Hao's rule provoked a strong resistance, and the relocation of the capital to Wuchang only lasted long before he moved back to Jianye.

However, all this was originally the potential resistance that the Sun family had to face in history, but for Liu Bei's camp, it was completely non-existent - because Liu Bei was named the Marquis of Wuchang by the emperor's effective holy decree before the edict, and the fief was in Wuchang County.

Liu Bei wants to put the ruling center in Jiangxia County, and no one can oppose it.

For the Wuhui region, Liu Bei was originally a foreign conqueror, and he wanted to transfer the local elite to the Wuchang center as an official, which was also a matter of course, and it was a promotion.

Just like in history, after the Western Jin Dynasty destroyed Wu, it was only natural that Gu Rong, Lu Ji, and Lu Yun should be transferred to Luoyang as officials. If you control the Gu and Lu families, you will also control Jiangdong.

Zhuge Jin has these historical experiences to learn from, and his tricks are about to come out.

I only heard him talk to Gu Yong with a pleasant face, and praised Gu Yong's ethics and humility and low-key.

Gu Yong naturally wanted to blow to each other in business, saying that he had long admired General Fubo's far-sightedness and calculation, and as for humility and self-denial, he did not dare to compare with General Fubo.

Then, Zhuge Jin took the opportunity to say:

"I heard that when Sun Ce was seriously injured, Sun Quan was temporarily appointed as the chief inspector and wanted to use Gu Gong as the county assistant? In my opinion, this Sun Ce is also stingy. Gu Gong's talent, it is too overkill to govern a county, and it is appropriate to be too guarded, let alone the county? In the future, he should be in the center.

It's just that the lord doesn't know Gu Gong yet, so he can't give a high position for the time being, so as not to be unconvinced. I am Gu Gongji, and I can replace my younger brother as Jiangxia Taishou, so I am often on the side of the lord, or I can show my talents and then try to be promoted. ”

This temptation to throw stones to ask for directions, except for Liu Bei himself, Zhuge Jin can suggest this, and even Guan Yu is not qualified to say it.

Because this kind of temptation involves making room for Gu Yong. With Zhuge Liang's status, even if he has a higher new position, no one can ask him to remove his old position, and he can have one more position.

Only Zhuge Jin's identity, he said that it was not rude for an outsider to take over a certain position of his younger brother. In the filial piety environment of the Han Dynasty, the elder brother naturally has the right to judge the younger brother.

Of course, Gu Yong will definitely not accept this kind of temptation, his emotional intelligence is also very high, and he immediately said modestly:

"General Fubo is really overrated! Yongchu has just arrived, and he has not made an inch, how can he be promoted? What's more, I have no intention of fame and fortune, if I suddenly rise to the top, outsiders will still think that I am for glory and wealth, and I will descend to Wu.

What's more, Mr. Kong Ming is also a great sage in the world, and he serves as the Taishou of Jiangxia, the edict of the Son of Heaven, and the hearts of the people of Jingzhou. Please also ask the general to take back his order and use my personal virtue! ”

Zhuge Jin was originally just a test, but when he heard Gu Yong raise his personal virtues, he no longer insisted on it, and took a step back and said:

"Zhu Zhi and Zhu Ran are newly dead, Gu Gong is a benevolent gentleman, although he dedicated the city, he must not want to see the Zhu father and son stubbornly resist and perish. It may be difficult for you to become an official now. In this case, if Gu Gong is not willing to go out immediately, he can stay idle in Wu County this year, and the lord will definitely have another expedition in the coming year, and he will not quit at that time.

As for the position, I feel that Jiangxia Taishou has a high start, but he can be a county for one year first, and it is not too late to take over as Taishou when he is familiar with Jiangxia government affairs - Gu Gong can rest assured, he will give up his younger brother and do a lot of things, Jiangxia will be too guarded, and he will hang for another year or two at most, not to make room for Gu Gong. ”

The conditions proposed by Zhuge Jin for the second time are beyond doubt. not only took care of Gu Yong's Qinggao, but also gave a buffer period, Gu Yong had no choice but to agree.

If the leaders of Gu and Lu are transferred out of Wu County and no longer serve as local magistrates, the family problems of the four lords of Jiangdong can be alleviated a lot.
