The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms
Page 498
So when you meet some Han people occasionally, these Karasuma people will not make any fuss.
Zhou Yu and Sun Ce spent some money and bought dozens of war horses from them.
It is considered to have the first batch of combat power in this place.
Zhou Yu and Sun Ce actually wanted to buy more horses, but they didn't have enough money.
Moreover, the money of the Han Empire is in the hands of these nomads.Not so equivalent, what they want more is food, and Zhou Yu doesn't have these things now.
So it is not bad to be able to buy dozens of war horses.
Anyway, after having these dozens of war horses.Sun Ce and Zhou Yu will be able to get more horses.
The next thing is also simple.
The soldiers and horses led by Zhou Yu temporarily found a place to hide, and then Sun Ce led these dozens of cavalry and began to plunder around here.
A small tribe that specializes in hunting for Karasuma people.
The Karasuma people have never been soft-hearted to the Han people. They mostly kill the Han Chinese men, and even if they don't kill them, they will enslave them.
For women, it is more of a tool to vent, with almost no human rights at all.
Similarly, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce would not show any mercy to the Karasuma people. To show mercy to the enemy is to be cruel to oneself.
Although these are just some common people of Karasuma, Karasuma is a soldier, and both men and women can mount a horse and become a warrior.
Today, these people may be just ordinary people with no power to restrain chickens. Tomorrow, they can become cavalry sweeping the world on horseback.
Therefore, when Sun Ce led people, dressed as horse thieves, and intercepted and killed small tribes, he would not be merciful.
In one day, Sun Ce wiped out two small tribes, and his horses changed from dozens to hundreds.
The number of people suddenly increased.
In just two days, Sun Ce and his 3000 troops quickly got [-] war horses, and they had a foothold in this land of Liaodong.
After getting the horses and equipping the [-] soldiers under their command, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce finally felt a little happier.
After having these horses, they will be able to quickly go back and forth in the land of Liaodong for blitzkrieg.
In today's Liaodong area, there are not many soldiers and horses.
Most of the troops were taken away by Yuan Xi and Ta Dun, and the rest were just old, weak, sick and disabled, not suitable for the expedition.
And this just gave Zhou Yu and Sun Ce a chance.
After dressing up their identities a little, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce came to Changli County, where they met a spy of Liu Zheng who was ambushing here.
It is also one of the hundreds of Jinyiwei households in the Liaodong area.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
There are more than 100 secret agents of Jinyiwei in Youzhou area.
Scattered in various counties and prefectures, there are at least ten people in each county.
There will be one hundred households in a county, responsible for managing the Jinyiwei of the entire county.
And each Jinyiwei is scattered among the counties below each county.
Generally, a few peripheral members will be recruited. These peripheral members are not Jinyiwei, but they can enjoy some treatment of Jinyiwei, and they are also one of the sources of promotion for grassroots Jinyiwei.
Jin Yiwei is also generally hereditary, from father to son, or master to apprentice.
This can not only guarantee loyalty, but also maintain the status of Jin Yiwei.
The hundred households of Jinyiwei in the Liaodong area were named Gongsundu.
Gongsundu did exist in history. During the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, he was still a vassal in the Liaodong area.
When he was young, he moved to Xuantu County with his father.At the beginning, he was a small official of Xuantu. Later, he was promoted to Shang Shulang and governor of Jizhou, and was later dismissed from office.
Recommended by Xu Rong, a fellow villager, Dong Zhuo appointed him as the prefect of Liaodong.After Gongsundu took office, he implemented severe punishments and laws, cracked down on powerful forces, and made his administration smooth and his wings gradually flourished.Soon, Dong Zhuo was in chaos in the Central Plains, and warlords from all over the country had no time to look around.
Gongsun Du took the opportunity to establish himself as Marquis of Liaodong and Mu of Pingzhou.Afterwards, they attacked Goguryeo in the east, Wuhuan in the west, Liaodong Peninsula in the south, Donglai counties in the northern part of the Jiaodong Peninsula across the sea, and expanded their territories; He regarded himself as the king of Liaodong.
It can be counted as a rather powerful prince in the middle and late period of the Three Kingdoms.
However, the current Gongsun Du has no historical destiny.
Because Dong Zhuo failed to become the grand master who controlled the court, Gongsun Du naturally had no chance to be recommended by his fellow countrymen to serve as the prefect of Liaodong, but because the Liaodong region had been constantly warped.
In addition, several sons of the Yuan family killed each other, which caused Gongsun Du to be depressed all the time. He was depressed at home, and he was over forty years old, and he still failed to accomplish anything.
As for Yuan Zhou, of course, when he formed Jinyiwei's secret agents, he had inquired in many places in Youzhou, looking for people who were depressed but wanted to serve the imperial court.
And this Gongsundu, because he had been the governor of Jizhou before, and he was famous and capable in such a position, naturally became Liu Zheng's first choice.
Liu Zheng also knew that Gongsundu in history was actually a capable person, so after throwing an olive branch to Gongsundu, he was actually very happy to recruit talents like Gongsundu.
Gongsun Du was able to inform Liaodong to subdue the nomads in the north, so he was naturally a capable person.
In history, precisely because of the existence of the Gongsun family, Xianbei people, Karasuma people, and even Goguryeo people did not dare to be presumptuous.
Later, Sima Yi's Northern Expedition destroyed the Gongsun family and the goalkeepers in the north, so that the nomads in the north gradually grew.
It also created the later five chaos in China, and the ethnic minorities went south.
Of course Liu Zheng would not just sit back and watch this happen. His recruitment of Gongsun Du was the first step in guarding the north for him.
Now Gongsun Du has received the order in advance, and he is waiting for Zhou Yu and Sun Ce to arrive in Changli County.
On the third day after arriving near Changli County, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce sneaked into the city secretly. According to the contact information provided by Jin Yiwei, they came to a shop.
After uttering the code word for joint, he brought Zhou Yu and Sun Ce into the inner court.
In the inner court, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu saw Gongsun Du.
That is, the Hundred Households of Jinyiwei in Liaodong.
Gongsun Du is a 50-year-old man who is almost [-] years old, with a burly figure and a goatee.
With sword eyebrows and star eyes, he is quite majestic.
The Gongsun family, in Liaodong, can be regarded as having some influence.
After all, since Gongsundu's father has been running his own power here, he has more or less a family background.
Gongsundu chose to join Liu Zheng because they knew that Yuan Xi was not a person who could accomplish anything. In addition, Gongsundu had always looked down on those northern barbarians, so naturally he would not be willing to join forces with those northern barbarians.
So the only way to go is to seek refuge with Liu Zheng. Even if he wants to seek refuge with Liu Bei and the Han court, Liu Bei will not be able to govern here.
While Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were looking at Gongsun Du, Gongsun Du was also looking at Zhou Yu and Sun Ce at this time.
As a member of Jinyiwei, Gongsun Du naturally knew some news, and also knew Zhou Yu and Sun Ce.
One is Liu Zheng's proud disciple, and the other is the eldest son of Liu Zheng's general Sun Jian.
At the same time, he is also a general under Liu Zheng, in charge of the soldiers and horses of the first battalion.
This kind of status is much higher than that of Gongsun Du, a small hundred household.
So in front of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, Gongsun Du is still relatively humble.
"Gongsundu, a hundred households of Jinyiwei, the lower official, met the two generals!"
Gongsun Du was saluting to Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, and the two immediately signaled to avoid the salute.
"Gongsun Baihu is exempt from courtesy. The two of us were ordered to go to Liaodong secretly. We are not generals. Lord Baihu doesn't need to be so polite. Let us tell the two of us about the situation in Liaodong."
Zhou Yu knew that he didn't have enough time, so he came here. After seeing Gongsundu, he didn't intend to chat with Gongsundu about useless things. He went straight to the point and asked Gongsundu about the situation in the Liaodong region.
When Gongsun Du saw Zhou Yu directly asking about Liaodong, he didn't dare to neglect.
Since Zhou Yu and Sun Ce wanted to understand the situation here first, he immediately opened his mouth and told Zhou Yu and Sun Ce.
"Eastern Liaodong actually belonged to Youzhou. During Emperor Anti's reign, the Liaodong and Liaoxi counties were used to resettle Karasuma people. Although this was the domain of the Han, there were not many Han people. Most of them were Karasuma. Later, after the Yellow Turban Uprising , this place is even occupied by Zhang Chun and other rebels."
"Later, the Karasuma people even started to seize the city directly. Today, half of the people here are Karasuma people, and the other half are Han Chinese."
"The seat of Youzhou was originally in Fanyang, but since Yuan Xi fled back to Youzhou, he settled his old nest in Xiangping, the seat of Liaodong."
"Besides, there is also the leader of the Karasuma people, Nanlou, who is the younger brother of the current king of Karasuma, Tadun."
"These people are all gathered in Xiangping City. There are still 2 elite guards in the city, and [-] city defense troops. Adding up the miscellaneous troops, there are nearly [-] people."
"It's not easy to break through Xiangping City."
Gongsun Du naturally knew what the purpose of Zhou Yu and Sun Ce came to Liaodong. After briefly introducing the situation in Liaodong to Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, he also told them that their goal was difficult to achieve.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
After Zhou Yu heard Gongsun Du's words, not only was he not worried.
Instead, he smiled lightly.
He responded to Gongsun Du.
"Gongsun Baihu, don't panic. If this matter is easy to handle, Bo Fu and I don't need to do it ourselves. It is precisely because this matter is difficult that not just anyone can do it successfully. You need to come here in person.”
Zhou Yu replied so calmly, after seeing Gongsun Du, he was a bit surprised.
"The general is right, but I have received a new piece of news in the past few days. I sent someone to deliver the news to His Majesty a few days ago. I guess the general still doesn't know."
Gongsun Du said another word to Zhou Yu, which immediately aroused the interest of Zhou Yu and Sun Ce.
"What news? Could it be about Yuan Xi?"
"Yes, my men have been inquiring about how many soldiers Yuan Xi and Ta Dun had dispatched to attack Jizhou during this period of time. Until recently, we found out a shocking news."
When Gongsun Du said this to the two of them, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce immediately tensed up.
Because they had already noticed from Gongsun Du's expression that this matter must not be simple.
"The Xianbei people in the north actually stationed 7 to [-] troops in the west of Liaoning. They were well hidden before. Our spies never found out, but they were ordered to kill them in the direction of Jizhou a few days ago. It is estimated that according to the Based on the current time, it should have arrived in Jizhou."
Recommended, \app\ is really good, it is worth installing for book lovers, and both Android and Apple phones support it!
Gongsun Du is in Liaodong, so he can naturally control some news here. Even if the drastic military mobilization of [-] to [-] troops is well concealed, the movement caused by the galloping horses will definitely not be covered up.
So when those Xianbei soldiers rushed to Jizhou, the Jinyiwei under Liu Zheng had already grasped the news, and rushed to pass the news to Liu Zheng, but relatively speaking, the news would definitely not be too fast.
When this news reached the ears of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu.
The faces of the two of them changed instantly.
"What Gongsun Baihu, what is said is true?"
"Of course it is true. If I am not sure, I will not tell the two generals. My spies inquired about the news from western Liaoning a few days ago. It is estimated that the battle situation in Jizhou should be very anxious now."
The expression on Gongsun Du's face was quite worried.
He is in the land of Liaodong, and he is very clear about the strength of these nomads.
Especially now that the Karasuma people, the Xianbei people and Yuan Xi, the three parties have assembled nearly 20 troops.
Although Gongsun Du already knew that Liu Zheng was on his own expedition and led his troops to station in Jizhou, Liu Zheng's troops were still much smaller than the enemy's.
In this case, it is easy to have an accident on the Jizhou battlefield.
It is precisely because of this that Zhou Yu and Sun Ce immediately changed their faces after hearing the news, and they both understood the seriousness of this matter.
"Xianbei people, these Xianbei people also come to join in the fun? Do they also want to be cleaned by my master?"
Zhou Yu was a little angry.
Originally thought that his opponents would only be some Karasuma people and Yuan Xi.
But now I heard Gongsundu say that there are still some Xianbei people.
Zhou Yu's pressure increased a bit.
Naturally, there will be some resentment.
"Gongjin, don't panic, it's just that some Xianbei people are nothing, after we get rid of Yuan Xi, we will adjust the guns and deal with those Xianbei people."
Although Sun Ce was also very angry.
But he didn't have a general understanding of the Xianbei people and Karasuma people, but with his passion, he felt that no matter what kind of enemy he was, they were all scum in front of him.
"That being said, Master should be under a lot of pressure right now, Bo Fu, we must make some moves in the east of the river as soon as possible to attract the attention of Yuan Xi and Ta Dun, otherwise, the battle will be stalemate , is not good for our army."
Zhou Yu wants to make some achievements as soon as possible, so that there can be a buffer for the battle in Jizhou.
