"Who's Buqi? Isn't the Taishou appointed by the imperial court Lord Manchu? ”

"Shixie has a population of one million, four large counties, and dozens of county seats, how could he be quietly seized by Jiangdong?"

The generals listened to Cao Wu's words and immediately started talking loudly, just because the news Cao Wu said was too difficult for them to accept.

These people have worked hard all the way to occupy the first county of Cangwu, why has Jiangdong already won the four counties?

Liu Xian even smiled disdainfully, thinking that Cao Wu was talking big and deliberately attracting everyone's attention.

Cao Wu didn't explain, waited for a long time, and waited until their discussion disappeared before he smiled and said, "First of all, my news is true. ”

He glanced at the generals as he spoke, most of the generals believed Cao Wu's information, and there was no reaction, Liu Xian coughed lightly, lowered his head, and didn't dare to squeak.

"Secondly, although Jiangdong has taken four counties, there are many hidden dangers."

As he spoke, Cao Wuchao pointed behind him, and Lu Xun understood and hung up a map of Jiaozhou.

Compared with the earliest version of the shoddy map, this map is obviously much more detailed, and it doesn't look awkward, which shows how powerful the intelligence agencies in Beifu are these days, and even the map is doing a good job.

Cao Wu pointed to several locations on the map and threw out a news that shocked the generals even more: "Hepu Taishou Shiyi, Nanhai Taishou Shiwu, Qianjiu Zhen Taishou is now Yulin Taishou Shixie, these three people are brothers with Shixie, but they are much younger than Shixie." For a long time, the four of them each led a county guard, and they respected Suinan Zhonglang and Shixie, and became a separatist force. However, about ten days ago, these three people rebelled! ”

"What?"

The soldiers are treacherous, all the generals present are not White Lotus, knowing that in this era, rebellion is as simple as drinking water.

But Jiaozhou is different, the four scholars surnamed Taishou are originally the same qi and branches, and the other three can only become Taishou under the support of Shixie, a bit like Yuan Shao put his son and relatives in other states to guard, which is used as the Shijia's own territory.

Chen Ying was a little breathless and asked, "General Beifu, what is the mutiny?" Could it be that these three brothers betrayed Shixie? ”

He didn't believe it at first, but looking at Cao Wu's determined eyes, he couldn't help but believe it.

The three brothers, Shiwu, Shiyi, and Shiyi, really rebelled.

Lu Xun had also read Jiang Wan's information, and he patiently explained it to Cao Wu for everyone.

"This starts with Shi Xie's beginnings. Their Shi family entered Jiaozhou in the early Han Dynasty, and by the time Shi Xie's generation, they were already one of the most famous families in Jiaozhou. When Shi Xie was young, he studied in Luoyang and met many great Confucians. He once studied with the great Confucian Liu Tao, do you know, what year was it? ”

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what medicine was sold in Lu Xun's gourd.

"It's been built for three years."

"Jianhe ......"

Among these generals, many of them are both civil and military, and when he heard this era name, Liu Xian was the first to stand up.

"How is this possible!"

Jianhe is the name of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, after Emperor Huan, there is Emperor Ling, and after Emperor Ling, there is Emperor Xian.

The second year of the establishment of peace was already 60 years ago.

All the generals also looked at each other, all shocked by the news.

Li Dian muttered: "That is to say, ......"

"Yes, everyone says that Shi Xie is an old horseman, but I don't know how old he is. In terms of age, there are seventy-two of them. At his age, not only is he healthy, but he can even ride a horse and hunt, and his body is tough, without a trace of aging. ”

As soon as Lu Xun said this, everyone had already guessed the truth about Shi Xie's brother's rebellion.

Sure enough, Lu Xun continued: "Shi Xie's appointment as Jiaozhi Taishou was twenty-two years ago, he found three brothers from many brothers who could be promoted to the three county Taishou, those three were ambitious at the beginning, but as time went by, they found that they were slowly getting old, but Shi Xie was aging slower than them. Shi Xie's son is not successful, and the three of them thought that they could succeed Shi Xie, but seeing that they are getting old, they are likely to die before Shi Xie, will they be willing? ”

"In this way, the seeds of rebellion have been planted deeply, just waiting for a spring rain, they will take root and sprout, and become a big tree that destroys Jiaozhou."

"And Jiangdong is that seed!"

What happened after that was nothing more than that the Jiangdong Army began to lay out a few years ago, bribed the three of them, and now went to pick the fruits of victory and instigated the three of them to do it.

The 10,000 Jiangdong elites who went south gave the three brothers of the Shi family confidence, and they relied on their trust in Shi Xie's eyes to invite Shi Xie to the banquet and took away his military power without blood.

Then, the three of them began to feast on the people who still supported Shixie in Jiaozhou, pretending that Shixie was seriously ill and entrusted the three of them to govern, trying to create the illusion that it was the normal succession of power of the Shi family, so that they would submit to the three.

This kind of banquet was repeated for many days, and there were many people who supported Shi Xie at the beginning, but after all, this was a family matter of the Shi family, and in the end, the three brothers of the Shi family gave them enough benefits, and they all compromised one by one.

This process is simple to say, but without the support of Jiangdong, the three brothers of the Shi family would never have the courage to betray Shi Xie.

The Jiangdong people accurately found the gap in the egg, stung it, and completed the impossible task of conquering the four counties of Shixie as quickly as possible.

"But the brother of the Shi family, are you willing to be a lackey of Jiangdong?"

Li Dian sneered.

"Of course they don't think so."

Cao Wu shook his head: "The news of the arrival of our army, the Shi family must also know. In this case, without the Jiangdong Army, the three of them may be wiped out by us one by one. With the Jiangdong Army, they were not only able to keep themselves, but also to seize the power of Shixie. In the end, the Jiangdong Army will fight a fierce battle with us, and no matter who wins, they will inevitably no longer be able to control Jiaozhi, isn't this what they want. ”

"Think beautifully!"

Le Jin snorted coldly: "The people at both ends of the first rat will inevitably be abandoned, I have seen a lot of this kind of thing." ”

Zhang Liao analyzed: "This is natural, Jiangdong planned this matter from the beginning, and it was impossible to clear the obstacles for the three brothers of the Shi family. Their purpose must be to mobilize the forces of the four counties against us. ”

"Exactly!"

The congregation will chimed in.

Next, Lu Xun talked about the deployment of troops in the four counties, as well as the deployment of troops in Jiangdong.

Only then did everyone know that it turned out that Shixie had accumulated a full 60,000 troops, which was more than twice that of Cangwu Wuju's army.

Jiangdong only brought 10,000 elite soldiers over, with a total of 70,000 on both sides, which is also more than twice the number of the existing Cao army.

Saying this, all the generals felt heavy in their hearts, and the Jiangdong Army was really as difficult to deal with as before.

But Cao Wu obviously didn't want them to relax, he laughed, and said casually: "By the way, the person who started planning Jiaozhou a few years ago is Zhou Yu and Zhou Gongjin. ”
