Chapter 362: Changes in Jingnan
In addition to the Jiaozhou soldiers, there was also a group of Yizhou soldiers who boarded the ship in Jiaozhou and headed to Jingnan.
The troops and horses borrowed from Yizhou were led by a man named Zhang Yi.
This person is of few words, but when he speaks he often gets to the point.
Moreover, there was an indescribable aura about him, which Shi Hui had only felt in Mr. Gan before.
Standing upstairs, Shi Hui nodded reservedly with Zhang Ni and watched him board the ship and head north.
The gentleman's previous plans came to mind.
In fact, it is not complicated to say. Mr. Lu told her that all Jiaozhou can do is three-way:
The best strategy is to vote for Liu, the middle strategy is to defend yourself, and the bottom strategy is to vote for Sun.
At that time, Shi Hui didn't quite understand. They were all dependents. Why was there such a big difference between defecting to Sun and Liu?
Mr. Lu just calmly asked:
The young master thinks that if Cao destroys Liu, what will happen next?
Faced with Shi Hui's speechlessness, Mr. Lu took the trouble to explain the detailed differences to Shi Hui.
Cao and Liu both aspired to the world and could be called rivals.
Sun's focus was only on Jiangdong, which was not enough to worry about.
Even if you try to be strong for a while, so what if you divide the river and rule it? No matter who wins between Cao and Liu, it is impossible for the Sun family to accept a separate regime in Jiangdong.
Throwing oneself into the east of the Yangtze River is like boarding a ship with a broken bottom. How can it not be considered a bad move?
Based on this, Shi Hui gradually tasted the difference between the upper, middle and lower, and under the influence of the young man's temperament, he chose the best strategy without any influence.
But in the end, Shi Hui still had his youthful nature at work, and he asked unconvincedly:
"Mr. Lu, you think Jiaozhou can't stand on its own and rule the roost?"
Shi Hui's rhetorical question, which he took for granted, aroused Lu Meng's hearty laughter and Gan Yi's undisguised ridicule.
But now that he thought about this rhetorical question, Shi Hui wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
I once thought that the Shi family was powerful in Jiaozhou and had the qualifications to wait for the right time to move. However, after I went to Yizhou as an envoy and saw with my own eyes this elite army that penetrated Nanzhong, I never had such a mentality again.
The awe-inspiring aura of the soldiers frightened Shi Hui, and the fierce aura of Wu Yi and Zhang Yi made Shi Hui fall in love.
Seeing this with his own eyes made Shi Hui know quite clearly what the gap was.
Especially after Mr. Lu explained the situation in the world, Shi Hui could also judge it.
This powerful force that penetrated Nanzhong was just a partial force under Uncle Liu Huang.
But Shi Hui was better able to judge that it would not be too difficult for this partial division that had penetrated Nanzhong to penetrate Jiaozhou.
After all, even Nanzhong has made a breakthrough, so the miasma in Jiaozhou is nothing more than idleness.
So Shi Hui corrected his attitude, carefully explained the events in Jingzhou one by one according to what Mr. Lu had said in advance, and carefully put forward his own suggestions:
"If the general wants to use Jiaozhou to go to Jingnan to fight against thieves, a certain person is willing to provide the general with food and grass and recruit soldiers to join the expedition.
Wu Yi, the governor of Nanzhong, did not think for too long, and finally divided his troops into three thousand, led by Zhang Ni, who passed through Jiaozhou and entered Jingnan to support the battle.
Wu Yi himself had a look of regret on his face, saying that there were still rebels in Yunnan who were rebelling against Wang Hua, and he would soon lead troops with Chief Sima to put down the rebellion, and strive to pacify the entire Yizhou completely.
This decision made Shi Hui faintly relieved. He was really afraid that General Wu would wave his hand and the entire army would pass through Jiaozhou and enter Jingnan.
After seeing the strength of Yizhou soldiers with his own eyes, doubts about destroying Guo in a false way inevitably emerged from the bottom of Shi Hui's heart.
Thousands of people crossing the border are like holding a knife to their necks. The relationship between the Shiliu and Liu families has not yet reached this level.
Three thousand people is a good number. It will not make it difficult for Jiaozhou to support food and grass, nor will it make his father Shi Xie feel afraid.
At this moment, seeing that all three thousand soldiers of Yizhou had been dispatched, Shi Hui's mood gradually became high.
Although it is different from what he had imagined before, his Shihui will finally join the competition in the world!
But just as Shi Hui raised his hand, he saw General Gan jumping out next to him:
"Young Master of Jiaozhou, this is the time to make great achievements. Let's go to war!"
The momentum was powerful and the sound spread across the sea. Strange screams were heard in the school field, and the native soldiers raised their weapons in response to this mighty general.
Shi Hui hesitated for a moment, then smiled helplessly and shook his head.
Mr. Gan's heroic appearance is not inferior to that of General Wu Yi, and he is indeed more suitable to lead the army than him.
However, looking back on what he had experienced in just half a month, Shi Hui sighed more and more, how could the heaven be so kind to me?
The only thing that made Shi Hui scratch his head was that logically speaking, these two gentlemen shouldn't just bow to him?
This is different from what those Central Plains scholars said.
Gan Yi laughed loudly and shouted to the Jiaozhou soldiers in the few dialects he had learned.
Lu Meng disappeared behind, standing quietly behind Shi Hui and looking at everything in front of him calmly.
Shi Hui was full of excitement and planned to use this battle as his first test.
And in the south of Jiangling, Samoko's face was full of bloodthirsty, and the heavy iron rod flew lightly in his hands.
Relying on the refined rattan armor and physical advantages, Samoko and dozens of personal guards can be said to be invincible.
Another earth-shattering roar was made. Seeing that it failed to achieve success, Jiangdong also sounded the drumbeat of withdrawal.
After spitting "Bah", Shamoko did not hide his tiredness. He took the water from the guard and drank it in a big gulp.
After finishing two bowls in a row, I finally had the strength to say:
"Damn it, I'm going to capture the Pan family and skin and bones!"
Shamoko gritted his teeth.
Gongan is located in the north of Hanshou, and there is a county called Zuotang located on the bank of Lishui River between the two counties.
Shamoke originally led his troops here to find an opportunity to attack Gongan and make merit, but this plan soon failed.
After staying in Zuotang for only one day, the Jiangdong Army from Yunmengze sailed along the Lishui River and headed straight for this place.
At the same time, the Jiangdong Army in Gongan also set off together and attacked Zuotang County directly.
This time, Jiangdong gave Shamoke enough respect. The two sides combined to have nearly 30,000 people to come and pressure, and it was obvious that they were determined to win.
But fortunately, Shamoke has always been rude and clever. After smelling something wrong, he immediately retreated to Hanshou, so that the Jiangdong Army could not complete the encirclement.
At the beginning, the Jiangdong Army sent envoys to persuade them to surrender, but Shamoke sent the envoys' heads back in a very barbarian style, leaving no room for both sides to turn around.
The barbarians retreated southward, and the Jiangdong army relied on their numerical advantage to hold on. From Zuotang to Hanshou, which was only a hundred miles away, the two sides fought more than ten battles of varying sizes, and walked for seven or eight days.
From the beginning of the war, Shamoke was worried that the Jiangdong army was attacking from both sides, as if they knew his whereabouts very well, as if someone had leaked the news.
And as long as he thought about the process of his army going out, Shamoke basically had a candidate in mind.
However, the opponent was much smarter than he thought, and before he returned to Hanshou, he met the barbarians who came to report the news:
"The Pan family turned against us, attacked the county government, and occupied Hanshou!"
