Three Kingdoms Mythology World
Chapter 238: Cao Cao and Sun Jian Discuss Xu Chao
Lin Mu came to Juzhang County because he wanted to see how the military deployment was going. However, to Lin Mu's surprise, no! Juzhang County seemed to have no preparations for the coming war, as usual in Dongye County.
Generally speaking, when a city faces the threat of war, some iron thorns, horse hole traps, tripping ropes, etc. must be set up not far below the city wall, but Lin Mu didn't see any of these traces, there is a problem!
However, although they were not prepared for war, the aboriginal pedestrians were very eager, and they walked in three steps and two feet, as if in a hurry.
Lin Mu approached the south gate, ready to pay the entrance fee. The entrance fee for the Han Dynasty city was not expensive. According to the prosperity of the city, it was between a few to dozens of copper coins, and ordinary people could afford it.
But at the gate of the city at this time, there were only twelve veterans guarding listlessly, six people in each row, bored in every way, with worn-out armor and worn-out boots, and even the guy eating in his hand was a worn-out iron gun. The deputy army's salary is insufficient.
He quietly threw five copper coins into the copper cash box engraved with the character [五], and walked into Juzhang County in a fair manner.
Lin Mu took a closer look at these veterans, and found that there were a few disabled soldiers with missing arms and legs, and they were all sent out to defend the city. This made him speechless. Could it be that Xu Zhao even transferred all the soldiers in Juzhang County?
You have to find the stronghold of the Night Shadow Department and get the latest information.
Soon, Lin Mu found a restaurant named [Night Color Wine Shop] on the Nancheng side. Looking at the newly made plaque, Lin Mu smiled slightly. With the support of the territory's huge financial resources, all the strongholds of the Yeying Department have begun to be laid, not bad!
Lin Mu raised his foot and walked into the restaurant. The restaurant is small, with only twelve seats, four rows and three rows, and the counter is on the right hand side of the entrance, which is antique.
In the wine shop in the evening, there were no customers. It seems that Juzhang City is a bit loose on the outside and tight on the inside, but it is not right. If it is tight on the inside, heavy soldiers should be sent to guard the gates, strictly restricting entry and exit from the city, and there will also be patrolling soldiers in the city Constantly patrol to prevent being captured by the enemy from the inside.
Wine shops usually serve drinkers or rangers, and now there are no customers, so Juzhang County has undergone some changes.
As soon as Lin Mu appeared, a middle-aged shopkeeper wearing a cloth hat immediately greeted him, and asked with a smile, "My lord general, do you want to drink or eat?"
Lin Mu is dressed as a soldier, and it is not unreasonable for some merchants to call him a general.
Lin Mu didn't answer right away, but after looking around, he said, "I drink, drink hometown wine!"
When the shopkeeper heard this, his expression became tense, and he quickly asked: "What is the wine in your hometown?"
"Wine of no regrets!" Lin Mu said softly, with a little nostalgia.
"My lord, please, the hometown wine is ready!" The shopkeeper looked happy, and hurriedly led Lin Mu to the back hall.
"Today, Commander-in-Chief of Tianjia Seventy-seventh asked us to pay attention. If any drinkers who drink hometown wine and wine of no regrets appear, bring them to the back hall. It seems that this person is the one that Commander-in-Chief will be waiting for." Shopkeeper Nian thought to himself.
When they came to the back hall, the shopkeeper knocked lightly on the door, and a question came from inside the door: "What's the matter?"
The middle-aged shopkeeper immediately said respectfully: "My lord, the guest who drinks the wine of no regrets from my hometown is here! It's just outside the door."
"Oh, okay, you go down, I'll be there next time." There was another voice from inside the door.
"Yes!" The middle-aged shopkeeper walked away wisely. He is a member of the Yellow Department of the Night Shadow Department and knows the rules.
After the middle-aged shopkeeper left, Lin Mu pushed open the door, and Tianjia Seventy-seven came up to greet him in surprise and said, "My lord is finally here! The latest information on Kuaiji County has been summarized, and I just wait for my lord to check it out!"
There is not much etiquette in the Yeying Department, only the rules of doing things. When they meet their bosses, they will not follow a lot of etiquette before talking about things, but directly enter the topic!
"Okay! Thank you for your hard work. Everything happened so suddenly recently. The brothers in the Yeying Department must be working hard every day. After this Xu Zhao incident is over, I will reward everyone!" Lin Mu said from Tianjia Seventy-seven He took an intelligence document, patted him on the shoulder and said in a deep voice.
"This is what we should do!" Tianjia Seventy-seven said with a slight smile.
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll check the latest information first, and see what's going on elsewhere." After Lin Mu finished speaking, he sat down and buried himself in the information.
Tianjia Seventy-seven was waiting beside him.
The book page of Qiankun Son Mother is very limited. Even the Yeying Department, an important intelligence agency, cannot all be equipped with pages, and can only report information in a primitive way.
This information is a summary of the intelligence in Kuaiji County, that is, the Nanzhao Kingdom.
Lin Mu took a quick look ahead, and there are three points that are worth paying attention to:
First, Sun Jian. At this time, Sun Jian turned out to be Sima of the Biebu of Wujun County in Yangzhou and the captain of Fuchun County. He led his own army of 400,000 horses and marched from the sea on a huge ship. He is currently stationed outside Yuyao County, confronting the defenders in Yuyao City. with.
The development of Sun Jian's fleet is really rapid. As a super general, Sun Jian is not only a general of the army, but also has unique insights into the construction of the navy, and he is also a genius.
Second, Cao Cao. Lin Mu already knew Cao Cao's identity, but he was shocked that Cao Cao's headquarters had reached one million. The composition of Cao Cao's troops is half infantry and half cavalry, and they are currently stationed outside Zhuji City.
Third, Wang Lang, magistrate of Pingducheng, Yuzhang County, Yangzhou, sent 400,000 troops to besiege Wushang City.
...
After seeing the information of these three important figures who were relatively famous in the history of the Three Kingdoms, Lin Mu was even more sure that Xu Zhao had a huge temptation to make them swarm up like sharks smelling blood.
Coupled with the Taiping Sect, Kuaiji County is really going to be in chaos.
Lin Mu sighed in his heart. He originally thought it was an ordinary military operation to suppress the Longting rebellion. He planned to use this local meritorious service to strengthen his political and military status, thereby paving the way for the subsequent Yellow Turban Rebellion. Now It turned out to be a weakened version of the Han princes crusade against Dong Zhuo, [Princes Crusade Xu Zhao]!
The princes are: Cao Cao, Sun Jian, Wang Lang, Lin Mu, Zhang Jiao of Taiping Road.
...
In addition to the military operations of these big men, the Yeying Department also found out that some city guards in Nanzhao Kingdom (Kuiji County) had been transferred to guard three important fortresses connecting other counties: Yuyao City, Zhuji City, Wushang City.
These three cities are all main roads connecting with other counties.
Yuyao City is located in the north of Nanzhao Kingdom and is connected to Wu County in the north. This is also the only city connected to Wu County. The other cities are blocked by the Gaochuan River.
Zhuji City is located in the west of Nanzhao State, connecting with Danyang County in the west, and is also the only passage between Nanzhao State and Danyang County.
Wushang City, located in the southwest of Nanzhao Kingdom, is the only main road connecting Yuzhang County.
...
The marching routes of Cao Cao, Sun Jian, Wang Lang and others were arranged according to the external passages of Nanzhao Kingdom.
Among them, it was Sun Jian who attacked the main road of Yuyao City. If Sun Jian broke through the city, he could drive straight in. He could attack Juzhang City and Yan County in the east, and Yucheng in the west, and then go straight to Xu Zhao's old nest, Shanyin City.
The attacker of Zhuji City was Cao Cao. If Cao Cao attacked Zhuji City, he would go directly north, bypassing the west side of a huge lake [Jinghu Lake], and directly attack Shanyin City located on the north side of Jinghu Lake.
And Wang Lang, as an attacker on the southwest main road, after breaking through Wushang City, he can go north, bypass the east side of Jinghu Lake, directly attack Shangyu with Sun Jian, and then attack the final target Shanyin City; if he goes south, he can attack Taimo City, Zhang'an City, Shan County City, Houguan City, Dongye City and other cities, regained the lost land.
The three parties have their own advantages. Cao Cao is the closest to Shanyin City; Yuyao City, which Sun Jian attacked, is located on the edge of the [Hanyao River], and needs to use ships and naval forces. Sun Jian has advantages in this regard; Wang Lang, his advantage is that after breaking through Wushang City, he can directly conquer a large amount of land lost in the city and reap meritorious service.
...
These three parties should be connected, otherwise they would not have stationed troops in important fortresses at the same time, jointly put military pressure on Xu Zhao, and handed over a [Custody Call] to Xu Zhao, in the name of orthodoxy, to crusade against non-officials Thief!
For such a rebellion in Yangzhou, presumably the state governor and other high-ranking officials should be blamed by Long Ting, but the actions of Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others are a boost to Yangzhou's high-level officials, a hidden rule signal: you don't have to be afraid, don't waste the money in your pockets Money, as long as we dispatch, we can handle it, but for treasures, we have to choose first.
Corruption is prevalent in the local government of the Han Dynasty now. A county magistrate, a county prefect, and a state governor, they hate wars, because all the wars consume human, material and financial resources, and they are all in their pockets. Of course they don't want to pay for it.
The behavior of Cao Cao and others is a win-win situation for them! Why not do it, it's just an orthodox name, just give it to them. After the war, a county's city property, official positions, etc., can make them a lot of money.
Cao Cao and Sun Jian all went out with their own troops, and they had a lot of autonomy in the merits, items, etc. they obtained. Although some of them might be confiscated by the government after the war, how could they hand over the most important items? Hold it in your hand.
Interests are touching, what Cao Cao, Sun Jian and other super princes want must be very important to them, otherwise, a rebellion in a county will make them lose their own troops.
The actions of Cao Cao and others to push others by themselves are completely military operations that Lin Mu wants to plan.
Lin Mu was thinking about how to share a piece of the pie with them and maximize the benefits in this crusade when his own strength has not fully reached their level.
Lin Mu touched the Juzhang County Wei Ling Talisman in his arms, frowning and thinking.
I don’t know how many soldiers are left in the county battalion in Juzhang County. If there are still many, then as long as Lin Mu implements the beheading plan, kills the high-ranking county captains, and then shows the command talisman, there must be a great chance to subdue the county battalion sergeant.
