Perhaps in recent years, Liu Congshen’s decisive temperament has become more and more obvious, so he unconsciously resents this kind of beating around the bush. From Gu Hui’s attitude and previous conversation, it can be seen that although Jiangdong family intends to turn to themselves, they want to seek more and greater interests through this move.
In fact, Gu Hui’s heart is really going to do so. It seems to him that whoever becomes the master of Jiangdong can’t do without the support of the family, even if it is as strong as bretz. Of course, since you choose to support bretz, you can’t stop talking about the need to take action. Only by participating in the event that bretz captured Jiangdong as soon as possible can the family seek benefits and future generations seek happiness in this process.
"Brother Tan, please tell me about your ideas." Gu Hui can beat about the bush, but Liu Congke said seriously when he didn’t have time to play this trick with him.
At this time, the two men strolled around Gu Hui’s barracks, but it was safe for someone to see themselves here and leak the news. He believed that Liu Cong would not allow such a thing to happen. To take a step back, even if Sun knew it, what could he do? Jiangdong is about to change hands and be loyal to Sun Jingrui’s trilogy, which is almost lost. Now Sun is like a tiger losing its pawns. It looks scary, but it has already lost its ability to hurt people.
Looking at the mountain of hay in the barracks, Gu Hui’s eyes are a little erratic. After a pause, he pondered the tone and said, "The general has lashed Yu to calm the world. Only an outstanding hero like the general can wipe out the fierce rebellion and help the Han Dynasty …"
When he said this, he looked sincere and sincere as if he really came from the heart, but that’s not what bretz wanted to hear. He turned his head to look at Gu Hui and waited patiently for the text.
Gu Hui smiled and said, "However, there is a destiny in Zhou that Chang Xiude wants to steal the emblem. When the Han Dynasty has collapsed, the general has already crossed Jianghan and will weigh Jiangdong, keeping Jing and Yang according to the Yangtze River, and then building the Emperor’s number to map the sky?"
This remark sounds familiar to Liu Cong. It’s not that someone once said it to him before, but that Lu Su once said something similar to Sun. There is one key point in this remark, that is, "keep Jing and Yang" in the Han Dynasty, or whether you build an emperor’s name or not. It’s just a means to separate Jing and Yang. If it is said that it is very wise and correct to resist the situation of the powerful enemy in the north, it is now that Liu Cong does not recognize "three points" or "ruling the river by crossing the river".
Through what Gu Hui said, Liu Cong further confirmed the idea of Jiangdong aristocratic families, that is, self-protection is the best interest for these aristocratic families.
They tried to influence their own decision-making, and it was such a situation. When I thought of this, Liu Cong looked at Gu Hui’s eyes a little more indifferent.
This is the aristocratic family. They will always consider their own interests, even ignoring the reality that the people in today’s chaos are suffering from war. However, Liu Cong also knows that he has long been tied up with the aristocratic family, and that the emergence and rise of a new aristocratic family create different conditions. Compared with the Jingzhou aristocratic family, Jiangdong aristocratic family is more expansive and extroverted, while Jiangdong aristocratic family is relatively conservative and directional.
Perhaps I felt the indifference in bretz’s eyes, and Gu Hui’s eyebrows were slightly frowning. I was a little uneasy just now. He agreed that it was because Lu, Wei and Gu made a decision after joint consultation. Although Yu’s family did not participate, they also sent people to secretly understand this situation. As far as Gu Hui knows, some families and strongmen also expressed their support.
Now that Sun has kept Yangzhou, what’s wrong with changing someone to support it? If bretz is not as reckless and impulsive as Sun Ce, I believe that the two sides will be able to get along happily. In the final analysis, Jiangdong depends on the talents of these aristocratic families to govern.
Liu cong withdrew his eyes and turned to the soldiers who were practicing in the camp. Their eyes became more peaceful. He said, "What I said is not what I should read, but how can I spare no effort to revive the Han clan?"
For the Jiangdong family, it is definitely necessary for Liu Cong, but how can it not be dominated by these families? It is also very necessary to beat them properly to keep their heads clear. Otherwise, these families are likely to unite and try to control themselves like eyes …
See bretz will he moved out of the Han clan identity Gu Hui this just realized in front of the town south general, Chengwu hou but day personally admitted that his brother flashed a bit worried, but he soon came over for nothing. So bretz said that he didn’t refuse the support of the family, but once again he really showed his attitude to himself or to the Jiangdong family through himself. It’s not just to protect Jing and Yang!
Not everyone in the real Jiangdong family is conservative and less Gu Hui is not what he thought. After he shared this point, he could not help but look a little more eager in his eyes. Of course, his attitude did not affect his family enough. He even said that his brother Gu Yong was not sure, but at the moment, Gu Hui did make contributions and assist the emperor’s heart.
When it comes to this Gu Hui, he has to say more. He secretly thought that after returning from this trip, he should persuade his brother and adjust his family’s coping strategies. In this process, what will each family do? Gu Hui has already predicted. After all, Jiangdong aristocratic families can be consistent with each other, but they naturally compete with each other.
Moreover, Gu Hui also knows that there must be some people from his aristocratic family in the Jingzhou military camp in the Spring Valley at this time, and there is no lack of emissaries from the generals in Jiangdong Army.
How different can they be from themselves for this purpose? It is Gu Hui who thinks that those generals may not be able to seek much benefit through this move because Gu Hui’s understanding of Jingzhou’s military system is obviously different from Jiang Dongjun’s.
Jiang Dongjun is a hereditary leader system, which is very different from Jingzhou Army. Although there are still a few troops left in Jingzhou Army, on the whole, all the troops are under the command of Zhennan General Office, and the proportion of private soldiers in Jingzhou Army has been almost negligible.
Sun Shi’s father, the first Jiangdong Military Regiment, was a general strongman of Jiangyou in his early years and had a special political status and fame. Needless to say, compared with the four Jiangdong families, Yu, Wei, Lu and Gu, his family didn’t think much of Sun Shi. This is also the reason why Sun Ce slaughtered many aristocratic strongmen in the process of sweeping Jiangdong. During the process of Sun Jian and Sun Ce’s father’s separation from Jiangdong, it was those Jiangyou strongmen who led them to be composed of clans, pro-party, guests, tenants and servants.
However, the difference between Liu Cong and Sun Shi’s father also caused the difference between Jingzhou and Yangzhou. Those who still rely on Jiangdong soldiers are afraid that they will be disappointed this time …
☆, Chapter ninety-five Don’t take Wu Hui straight out.
Gu Hui didn’t hold the gloomy psychology of gloating, but made his own judgment from the difference between the two. For aristocratic families, especially for poetic families such as Yu, Wei, Lu and Gu, it is natural to resist and be hostile to the self-respect of mercenaries and the rise of military strongmen.
Unlike the aristocratic families who lived in Jiangdong, some of these Jiangyou strongmen were not from Jiangdong. For example, Cheng Pu Cheng Demou was a native of Tuyin (now Fengrundong, Hebei Province) in the right Beiping. In his early years, he was an official in the state and county. Later, after Sun Jian’s death, Huainan followed Sun Ce until Hulin was defeated and killed himself. These strongmen relied on the strength of clan power and the number of private soldiers to share the corresponding benefits in the Sun Shi regiment to protect their own interests. Naturally, after death, their younger brothers inherited their fathers and brothers and commanded the old soldiers.
Not to mention that Sun Ce and Sun are very representative. As a result of this hereditary system of leading troops, generals have to solve the problem that the army’s grain and grass logistics is given by the ordnance army. In other words, whoever soldiers will support them!
But you can’t always rely on plundering the enemy to support your troops when you lead the troops around, can you? In order to solve this problem, the so-called Fengyi system was implemented. The so-called Fengyi system means that generals can collect taxes and pay salaries and military assets in fiefs. For example, after Zhou Tai Sun took over Jiangdong, he was ordered to be the head of Chungu. Although he was transferred to Jiangbei with the war in Jiangdong, the Yichun levy of Chungu belonged to him. Of course, now Chungu has fallen into Jingzhou, and Zhou Tai has broken his income.
Another example is that when Sun Chu was in charge of Jiangdong, he ordered the merger of some troops because he felt that these generals could not afford to raise troops and after the merger, they would not make their soldiers flee for food and grass. A small captain named Lv Meng also secretly took credit to improve the equipment of the trilogy, but Sun’s move had another purpose, that is, he tried to close the Chinese army, so he was strongly opposed by some people, and then these people betrayed Sun and went to Li Shu.
Now Liu Cong, who is stronger than Li Shu, leads an army into Jiangdong. Unless he has been completely tied up with Sun, how can Xu Kun’s relatives not consider the future for themselves and their families? In the final analysis, this military strongmen and aristocratic families are also different.
Moreover, sometimes the boundaries between the two are not so clear-cut, and there are many people who are born in different families, brothers and generals, and there are many people who are still regarded as family and strongmen in people’s eyes.
However, in the extremely unified Jingzhou army, this is because Liu Congsun was different. Although Liu Congzi was a private soldier, he won the position of Nanyang satrap because of his identity and his own efforts, and then he took a different road from Sun Shi’s father. At that time, Liu Biao sheltered himself from the wind and rain, which limited Liu Congzi’s development to some extent, but also enabled Liu Congzi to concentrate on building an army loyal to him.
In particular, Cao Cao’s Nanyang War made Liu Cong famous and had an elite division at the same time, and he continued to expand the scale of this army in several subsequent wars until Liu Cong finally became a Jingzhou shepherd. All Jingzhou troops were placed in the general’s office in Zhennan.
Jingzhou army’s dispatch and supply all come from Zhennan General’s Office. How can this situation allow a large number of private soldiers to flood?
Of course, this is bound to make Jiangdong generals have a headache. Gu Hui has no idea to think more about it. What he has to do now is to return the attitude and bottom line of Bretz to each family. If he plans to react, Gu Hui can’t say that he can figure it out now.
After visual Gu Hui left, bretz returned to Zhongjun’s tent and invited Jia Xu and others to discuss how to deal with Chen Dengnan’s incident. Although they expected it, the situation is developing too fast now, and the letter that bretz wrote to Chen Dengmi the other day is afraid that it has not been delivered to him.
In that letter, firstly, Liu Cong made an analysis. Today, the general trend pointed out that "cao thief can’t be separated from the regime and can’t be kept", expressing his determination to "crusade against the Han thieves and help the Han family" and persuading Chen Deng to "observe the trend of heaven and earth, practice civil administration and diplomacy, and wait for time to change"
It’s not hard to understand how much this letter can do, but Liu Cong doesn’t expect too much. For Chen Teng, it’s only real to take advantage of Sun Li’s resistance to annex Wu Hui. After that, whether it will offend Liu Cong and even cause war between the two sides depends on the outcome of the Guandu War between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao and the situation after Liu Cong wiped out the remnants of Sun.
Because it is expected that there will be this variable, bretz, Jia Xu and others are not too anxious.
"Chen Deng’s move is bound to cause great resistance from Jiangdong aristocratic families, but the current situation is afraid that these aristocratic families are trying to stop the south." Liu Cong turned to Jia Xu and asked, "Sir, does it seem that our army should respond at this time?"
Jia Xu eyes a clot mused, "Chen Yuanlong wants to take advantage of the chaos and the general will end the chaos in Jiangdong before, so that the chaos can be forced to retreat."
"Before the end? It’s not easy to be afraid. "Bretz tried not to pacify Jiangdong as soon as possible. Up to now, the war has been going much smoother than expected. However, Sun has still maintained a certain strength. If it is slow and steady, it will take another few months to completely wipe out the forces and clean up the remnants, even if it takes a year and a half.
Actually, for bretz, he is not afraid to compete with Chen Deng for the current strength of Jingzhou Army in Jiangdong, not to mention 30,000 straight soldiers. Even if it is 100,000, he is confident that it will be eliminated. However, it is best for soldiers to attack without fighting, especially after occupying Jiangdong, it is necessary to transform the strength of war as soon as possible instead of sending a general. This guard will be able to pacify Jiangdong as soon as possible and then maintain stability, so that Jiangdong will not be riddled with war.
"So our army should strengthen the pressure on Jiang Dongjun, especially on Niuzhu," Jia Xu said seriously, smoothing his sparse beard.
Liu Congwei narrowed his eyes. "Will the sudden increase in pressure on Jiang Dongjun make them unite against our army again?"
"The general is worried that this time is different. The generals in Jiangdong, who were heavily armed by Sun, could not fight unless they joined forces. Moreover, when the situation was not faced with the pressure of our army at that time, they would choose Sun to advance and retreat together. Now, most of the elite of Sun’s cronies have been killed. Without the support of Xu Kun, Zhou Tai and others, they would have retired to Wu Hui and Jiangdong generals should now see the situation clearly. It is not difficult for them to choose the strong pressure of our army." After Jia Xu said that, he raised his hand over his mouth and coughed a few times, and he became thinner when he
To strengthen the offensive against Niuzhu, it is necessary to invest more troops, but it is somewhat reluctant for the Jingzhou army now.
Jingzhou army has suffered nearly half of the casualties since it sent troops in two wars: fighting in the tiger forest, raiding Jiangzuo and sweeping Jiangyou for half a year. Although it has been replenished and rested, on the surface, there are nearly 20,000 more troops than 50,000 when it sent troops, but there are more than 20,000 spring valley troops in Jiangbei and Jiangnan, and many of them have recently been transferred from Jingzhou and captured Jiangdong soldiers. At present, there are still nearly 10,000 troops in Niuzhu Jiangdong Army. If they rush to attack, I am afraid it will be difficult to win and fail to wipe out the enemy.
See bretz silent pang tong stood up and said, "or the armies of Jiangzuo besieged Liyang Jiangyou and attacked Shicheng. If we lose Niuzhu Jiangdong Army, we will lose the barriers on both sides. At the same time, our water army will go downstream and take Niuzhu directly! The enemy is attacked on three sides and it is inevitable that it will be difficult to save itself. "
Jia Xu’s strategy is a strategy, and the tactical level is supplemented. What needs to be done now is to make up your mind. If you plan to gradually divide and disintegrate the Jiangdong Army according to the plan of Liu Conglai, it seems that you can’t do it step by step.
In addition to the Qingqi camp and Seibel trap camp led by Huang Zhong, the former encirclement and suppression department of Taishi Ci also transferred nearly 20,000 troops one after another. Among them, there are both mountain Vietnamese soldiers and pike battalion led by Zhang Quan. From the strength of the Jingzhou army in Jiangbei, it should not be difficult to conquer more than 3,000 Jiangdong soldiers holed up in Liyang.
What is more worrying now is that the Jingzhou army of Jiangyou has been divided into three roads and Wei Yan and his men are numerous. After the capture of Wuhu a few days ago, they are preparing to March eastward to capture Fuyang, and then they can directly attack Wu Jun and Yang Yu, thus shaking the foundation of Sun’s rule. It is better to let Wei Yan and his men turn to the north as planned. In this way, the strength of Jiangyou’s attack on Shicheng is slightly insufficient
"Now Chen Deng’s troops, Nan Sun, will not sit idly by. However, if he divides his troops to help, Niu Zhu will have to defend our army. Can Chen Deng attack Dan Migration Machine and attack the two counties of Wu Hui first?" Bretz got up and walked to the front of the sand table and rubbed the stubble and said
Jia Xu also got up and said to Liu Cong before the sand table, "Does the general mean that regardless of Niuzhu Jiangdong Army, he will take the Wu Hui directly?"
"Sir?" Liu cong didn’t answer the rhetorical question.
Jia Xu frowned and said, "I’m afraid it’s not safe to go deep alone." If the pressure on grain transportation becomes great according to what Liu Cong said, the advantage of Jingzhou Army seems to be that it can’t take such risky tactics, but Pang Tong expressed support for Liu Cong. He said, "Jiang Zuo’s powerful men should join forces with the general, and even if our army goes straight into the Wu Hui, it can’t be said that it is alone. This will make Jiang Dongjun feel more scared than attacking Shicheng!"
☆, Chapter ninety-six Find another way to stand out.
In the early winter, the bleak cold of the mountains forced people to station here, and the morale of the Jiangdong army became more and more depressed because of all kinds of news these days
Taishi Ci finally surrendered to Jingzhou, and more than 10,000 Jiangdong elites fled to Niuzhu Barracks one after another. This heavy blow has not yet been digested, and the news that Guangling satrap Chen Deng made 30,000 soldiers south followed.
Most of the soldiers in Jiangdong were transferred from Wujun and Huiji counties, and because of Dan migration and Qu ‘a’s close proximity to Niuzhu, many people became worried when they heard the news that their hometown was invaded by Guangling soldiers.
Actually, the crossing of Guangling soldiers to the south didn’t go smoothly. Although Chen Deng had planned for a long time before, Sun’s defeat was so rapid that many of his preparations were not sufficient. This crossing of the Yangtze River seemed a bit hasty. Because the boat crossing the river was not well prepared, Dan moved to Guangling soldiers. There were only a thousand people, so where was the spare capacity to attack other places? However, all kinds of news are flying all over the world these days, and word of mouth is even more unrecognizable.
Ordinary foot soldiers are worried about their wives, children and elders at home, but they can spy on each other in the camp. Although Jiangdong military commanders know the truth, they also have their own thoughts
Outside the tent, the cold wind blew thin curtains, but it was difficult to resist the cold wind, which shook more than a few Jiangdong distribution accounts around the fireplace. They all looked worried and sad.
"I heard that Huang Sima ran away with a trilogy yesterday." Someone said dryly, breaking the silence in the account.
