Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Because Wuling County is located outside, neither Gaoshun nor Ganning are familiar with it.

Prior to this, Lantian asked Gao Shun to inquire about all kinds of information, including the garrison situation of Wuling County, roads, mountains and rivers, and the situation of officials.

There are less than [-] people in this spying team, but everyone is an elite of the camp with quick minds and strong martial arts skills. They are comprehensive fighters specially trained by Gao Shun after Lantian opened the martial arts lecture hall.

From the information, it can be concluded that there are no famous generals in Wuling County, and the prefect Jinxuan has a stubborn personality and is a descendant of the famous minister Jin Ridun. It is difficult to directly persuade him to surrender, and it may take a fight.

The trapped camp had strict discipline and marched across the border very quickly, so they were not discovered by the defenders of Wuling until they appeared in Yuannan County.

The city of Yuannan County is not big, and the garrison has less than a thousand people. They fought against Gao Shun in a panic, and were defeated at the first touch.

When news of the battle reached Linyuan City, the prefect Jin Xuan and others were shocked.

Jin Xuan summoned his subordinates to ask about the policy, and Gong Zhi analyzed it: "General, the government appointed Liu Qi as the prefect of Lingling. Originally, he wanted to control Jingnan completely. I didn't expect him to be dormant for two years. I guess Guiyang and Changsha will also be in power. There is trouble in Wuling..."

"But Liu Cong is the new owner of Jingzhou, and Liu Qi's actions are equivalent to treason." Jin Xuan said with a frown.

Jin Yi, the son of Jin Xuan, said: "There are still thousands of elite soldiers in Linyuan City, how about defending the city and waiting for reinforcements?"

"Gong can speak freely in his career." Jin Xuan asked Gong Zhi when he saw that he wanted to speak but stopped.

Gong Zhi clasped his hands and said: "Since ancient times, seniority and inferiority have been orderly, and Liu Cong's succession to the throne is not in accordance with the etiquette. Since the eldest son came to take Wuling, he will inevitably attack Changsha and Guiyang. Instead of waiting for reinforcements from Jiangbei, it is better to lead the crowd to surrender... ..."

"Surrender? You have to fight once, otherwise you will think that I, Jin Xuan, is weak, and this general intends to take the initiative to attack to dampen his spirit."

Gong Zhi glanced at Jin Yi first, and then said dumbly: "I heard that when the eldest son went to Lingling to take office, Liu Du sent his son Liu Xian to stop him, but he was defeated in the deep water valley. The general should learn from it..."

"I know about this matter. Eldest Young Master had Liu Xuande to help him at the time. This time neither of them came, so they sent a general surnamed Gao to lead the army. They simply ignored me, Jin Xuan."

"This person should have some skills, otherwise Yuannan would have fallen in an instant." Gong Zhi analyzed.

"Yuannan was defeated because of the lack of soldiers. I want to personally lead the troops out of the city to fight, and Linyuan will be handed over to you and Deyi to guard." Jin Xuan said sonorously.

"General, don't take risks yourself, even if according to what Deyi said, we should stay in the city and wait for help..." Gong Zhi remonstrated.

Jin Xuan frowned and said coldly: "I have made up my mind, the dignity is created by myself, just wait and do your own thing."

"Wei." Gong Zhi (Jin Yi) said in unison.

Jin Xuan left [-] soldiers to defend the city, and then led [-] elites out of the city. He wanted to cross the Yuanshui River and go south to fight, but was told that Gao Shun had already crossed the Yuanshui River and detoured to Linyuan City from the west. .

Gao Shun has rich combat experience. Although the distance from south to south along the Yuan River is short, he still has to cross the river to capture Linyuan City. He would rather cross the river early and take a detour than take the risk of crossing the river near Linyuan and being attacked halfway. The art of war is taboo.

The two armies encountered each other hundreds of miles west of Linyuan. Gao Shun's soldiers were well-trained and ordered to prohibit them. When Jin Xuan's men arrived, they were already in formation.

Lantian's military expansion in Lingling was too fast, and the production of armor could not catch up with the supply. Many newly recruited Vietnamese soldiers did not wear armor. At this time, they were still wearing their own national costumes, but this did not affect their combat effectiveness at all.

Seeing that the other party was dressed strangely, Jin Xuan immediately felt contemptuous. He pointed at Gao Shun with a whip and cursed: "Where are you bastards, how dare you invade my Wuling?"

Chapter 115 The Powerful Trapped Camp

Gao Shunren didn't speak harshly, so he signaled his lieutenant general Shen Hui to answer.

Shen Hui yelled sharply: "Blind your dog's eyes, this is General Gao Boping, we are ordered by the eldest son to take over Wuling, why not get off the horse and lead the way?"

"Bastard, Liu Qi has been greatly favored by the lord, how dare he openly seek rebellion now? You are like the same people, and you are also a sinner in Jingzhou." Jin Xuan said coldly.

Shen Hui: "Liu Cong has given Jingzhou to Cao Cao, who is the sinner of Jingzhou? Now that the eldest son is listed as the governor of Jingzhou by Liu Shijun, when will you not surrender early?"

"It's ridiculous, it's a bunch of nonsense, it's useless to talk too much, all the generals will rush to me." Jin Xuanxin said that it's not enough to make money for me, and he just received a letter from Xiangyang not long ago.

Even if Liu Qi is really the lord of Jingzhou now, Jin Xuan still wants to show his prestige. A team like this that doesn't even have enough armor should be used as a capital for himself.

"Beep beep..." Gao Shun calmly blew the characteristic whistle.

"Beep……"

"Beep……"

Dozens of whistles responded rhythmically, and Lieutenant General Shen Hui led the soldiers behind him to attack bravely. The elites who rushed to the front were the elites who were trapped in the camp.

As soon as you fight, you will see the result.

Jin Xuan soon realized that something was wrong. Except for the well-equipped soldiers on the other side, the other people with rough clothes and rough appearance also showed fanatic expressions, and they didn't care whether they were wearing armor or not.

This camp started with [-] people, and gradually expanded to a hundred, a thousand, and now an army of [-]. They are all brave men trained by Gao Shun himself.

Many people, including Gao Shun, married wives and had children in Lingling. In order to protect this hard-won stable life, their fighting will was far stronger than that of ordinary troops.

Compared with the previous army under Lu Bu, the new camp is now stronger, and the reason for this is the positive effect brought about by the Martial Arts Hall.

Lan Tian is going to lecture in the martial arts hall not only to talk about the art of war and strategy, but also the meaning of war.

Lantian did not copy the political commissar system of later generations, but he still attached great importance to the ideological construction of the army. Why did he work hard and fight for what?Speak in plain language.

Only then did Jin Xuan know the horror of being trapped in the camp.

There was no fear of life and death in the eyes of these people, even if they were hit by swords, they still went forward bravely, and the five thousand elites of Wuling began to flee in less than half an hour.

Jin Xuan also led the army to suppress the barbarian rebellion, and today he finally felt what it means to be shocked.

The Wuling soldiers fled to the east with Jin Xuan in their arms, while Gao Shun commanded the trapped camp to advance slowly. While fighting, those dozens of scouts were still rushing back and forth outside the battlefield. Although they did not participate in the battle, they had to fight for Battle sentry to make sure there are no ambushes everywhere.

When Jin Xuan's defeated soldiers saw Linyuan City, another army landed on the north bank of Yuanshui, and Gan Ning's [-] sailors rushed to support them in time.

There were not enough troops in the first place, and now they were flanked by front and back, and it seemed that Jin Xuan could not return to the city smoothly.

Jin Yi wanted to leave the city to save his father, but Gong Zhi rushed over and said, "De Yi, don't be reckless, take a look at this book of arrows..."

After reading the book of arrows shot by Gan Ning into the city, Jin Yi's face turned green, "Liu Cong surrendered Cao Cao, the eldest son became the governor of Jingzhou, and the two counties of Changsha and Guiyang have also surrendered. Is all this true? ?”

Gong Zhidao: "Did you see the soldiers of the waterway who came just now? That is Gan Xingba who robbed the Sun camp in Jiangxia. If Han Xuan's Changsha County is still there, how could his warship appear in Yuanshui?"

"What should I do now?" Jin Yi swallowed his saliva.

"Hurry up and surrender the city, General Yuanji might be in danger if it's too late." Gong Zhi persuaded.

"okay……"

Afterwards, Jin Yi and Gong Zhi surrendered at Kaicheng, Jin Xuan also surrendered Gao Shun seeing that the situation was over, and Wuling County was established.

Gao Shun was stationed in Linyuan according to Lantian's request, and Gan Ning returned to Lingling by water to report.

Less than ten days before and after taking Wuling and Changsha, Lantian and Gan Ning rushed to Jiangxia by water to report the battle situation.

Because Lan Tian did not receive a fake festival axe, he had to explain this kind of self-assertion in person. If his attitude was not sincere enough, Liu Qi and Liu Bei might fear it.

After Lantian came to Jiangxia, instead of going to see Liu Bei and Liu Qi first, he found Zhuge Liang and explained the situation in Wuling and Changsha.

Zhuge Liang sighed after hearing this: "Ziyu is so fast. Now that we have the five counties in the south of the Yangtze River, we have a little more chance of winning against Cao Cao. Liang should ask the lord to go to Jiangdong to discuss an alliance as soon as possible."

"When Cao Cao's troops came to Jingzhou, Jiangdong would feel uneasy. I don't think Sun Zhongmou will send envoys here without a military adviser coming in person." Lan Tian affirmed.

"Alright, if we talk about an alliance with Jiangdong in this way, we will have more confidence." Zhuge Liang laughed.

Lan Tian quickly waved his hands, "My lord's power can't be thrown away, only Jiangxia's land and General Guan's water army are enough..."

"Ziyu still keeps a low profile?" Zhuge Liang asked doubtfully.

"Sun Zhongmou attacked Jiangxia several times. In addition to avenging his father, he was plotting against Jingzhou. If we show that we have the strength of the five counties, Jiangdong will not go all out to resist Cao Cao. Even if we can defeat the opponent, it will be a miserable victory.

If it were an alliance of three families, the Eldest Young Master has more land but fewer soldiers, so we must share more benefits, at least the initiative is on our side, because there are only two families..."

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan, smiled and spit out two words: cunning.

"Since this is the case, Ziyu has to continue to 'plan' for the eldest son."

"The eldest son has been ill for a long time and can't manage politics, and there is no one under his command to send. Wuling and Changsha counties have to ask brother-in-law to borrow some officials."

"It's a pity that Ziyu doesn't go to lead the army..." Zhuge Liang smiled knowingly.

Liu Qi indulges his desires and is exhausted. Even if there is an opportunity to extend his life, it will only last two or three years. In addition, all the counties are Liu Bei's people, and it will be logical to win Jingzhou when the time comes.

The two came to see Liu Qi and Liu Bei, but Liu Qi didn't invite an opportunity to stay in Jiangxia. Seeing Lan Tian was like seeing his relatives.

"I just told my uncle that Ziyu is a genius in the world, and I want you to be the prefect of Lingling." Liu Qi said happily.

"Uh... Thank you, Mr. Fu..." Lan Tian glanced at Liu Bei and thanked Liu Bei.

"Ziyu usually works hard for Qi, it's really expected by everyone." Liu Qi said with a smile.

"Xiangyang is now occupied by Cao Cao, and the eldest son still needs to choose a new government for Jingzhou..." Liu Bei's words meant that Liu Qi should be located in Jiangxia, so that talents from all over Jingzhou would gather here.

"I think it's better to go to Quanling. I have no place to choose except Chen County where my uncle was stationed." Although Liu Qi is mediocre, he is not stupid. On the battlefield, he didn't want to be on the front line at all.

"My lord, I heard that you have become the governor of Jingzhou. The prefect of Wuling, Jin Xuan, the prefect of Changsha, Han Xuan, and the prefect of Guiyang, Zhao Fan, have all come to join you. Now Yide is stationed in Guiyang. The young master is stationed in Changsha, and I am here to plead guilty to you today..." Lan Tian said, clasping his fists.

Liu Bei scratched his head when he heard it, but when he saw Zhuge Liang nodding slightly at him, he knew there must be a deep meaning in his heart.

Liu Qi was not angry but happy, "These people are quite interesting, and now they stay in Jiangxia without incident. I want to visit various counties. Uncle, look..."

"In my opinion, let General Gan accompany him. Ziyu finally came to Jiangxia, and my lord wants to have a drink with him." Zhuge Liang said eagerly.

"Exactly." Liu Bei then smiled slightly.

Liu Qi smiled and said: "It's appropriate, as long as you have Xingba as your companion."

Chapter 116 The Two Lines of Light and Darkness

Most men have great ambitions, and Liu Qi heard that all the four counties in Jingnan really belonged to him, which was something that his father had never done in his father's time.

In addition to wanting to go to the counties to have a good time, the main reason is that Jiangxia is now depressed and boring, and it may be the main battlefield for the decisive battle with Cao Cao.

If you can slip away first, the war is still left to Liu Bei to deal with.

After Liu Qi left Jiangxia, only Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, and Lantian core were left in the prefect's mansion.

In front of everyone, Zhuge Liang explained the two-line operation of the two of them, that is, on the bright side, Liu Bei attached himself to Zhao Fan in Jingnan. Even though he recently won the empty shell of Jiang Xia, his strength is still very weak. This is called the bright side Showing weakness; secretly Lan Tian used Liu Qi's guise to quietly control all the four Jingnan counties for Liu Bei. This is called secretly trying to be strong.

"It's a good one to show weakness on the surface and try to be strong in the dark. Kong Ming, you even hide it from me and my lord. No wonder you rejected my suggestion to take Changsha several times." Although Xu Shu clapped his hands to blame, he didn't complain in his heart.

Zhuge Liang smiled wryly and said: "Ziyu said that he can only deceive outsiders if he can deceive himself. Liang also had no choice but to do so. Wang Yuan Zhixiong Haihan."

Lan Tian bowed his hands in embarrassment, and Xu Shu joked: "Well, it turns out that it's the cunning Ziyu, if you don't develop a few delicacies, our relationship will be formed."

"How dare you disobey the order of the military advisor." Lan Tian echoed.

Zhuge Liang walked between the two of them and smiled, "Yuan Zhi, this beam is for Yi De, right? Hahaha..."

Everyone laughed when they heard this, Liu Bei saw that the advisers were happy and harmonious, and said happily: "With the help of all the gentlemen, why worry about the uncertainties?"

"My lord, since Ziyu has taken Wuling and Changsha, you can send people to deploy defenses along the Yangtze River..." Xu Shu suggested.

"No, my lord has only [-] sailors, so I can't fight against Cao Cao alone. Sun Quan's Jiangdong navy is extremely elite, and we must unite with them to fight against Cao Cao, in order to have a chance of victory." Zhuge Liang argued.

"Are you going to ask Sun Quan? Ziyu, what do you think?" Seeing that Lan Tian was silent, Liu Bei asked.

Lan Tian went to the sand table and analyzed: "Cao Cao is currently stationed in Xiangyang and Jiangling. Although he has hundreds of thousands of cavalry under his command, they are blocked by the Yangtze River.

Now Cao Cao has few ships but many people, just like a clever woman who has rice but no pot, now he will seize the time to supervise the construction of naval divisions and warships, and threaten Sun Quan and others with letters so that they cannot send troops to fight against Cao for a short time.

Cao Cao will go down the river when the Jingzhou Navy is fully completed. Whether it is us or Sun Quan, it will be decided in one battle. "

"Ziyu's words made sense immediately. No wonder Cao Cao was stationed in Jiangling but he was not in a hurry to cross the river or go east." Guan Yu's patrol boat cruised the Yangtze River every day, so he sighed like this.

Liu Bei nodded, "Ziyu's analysis of the general situation has always been extremely accurate, it seems that we must send envoys to Wu as soon as possible."

"Sun Zhongmou also has high-ranking scholars under his command, please wait patiently, my lord, and there will be an answer soon." Zhuge Liang said.

"Wuling and Changsha..." Liu Bei hesitated to speak.

Lan Tian suggested: "Let Yide go to Wuling to replace Gao Boping, and Changsha can send civil officials to 'assistant' Han Xuan. In addition, Liu Pan's general Huang Zhong is brave and worthy of great use."

Seeing that Lan Tian was completely selfless, Liu Bei was very moved, and said quickly: "As Ziyu said, I let Yide and Zizhong (Mi Zhu) go to Wuling, Wei Shuo (Liu Yan) went to Changsha to 'assistant' Han Taishou, and Ziyu set up Such a great achievement, even Bei didn't know how to reward him."

After hearing this, Lan Tian quickly waved his hands and said: "The secret plan that the military adviser said just now must not be exposed, otherwise Sun Zhongmou will be in trouble if he finds out. My relationship with my brother-in-law must still be kept secret."

From the time of planning to take Lingling, Lantian and Zhuge Liang made a plan of two lines of light and dark. Because of the close relationship between Lantian and Liu Bei, it can't be publicized to the outside world. In addition, Lantian is very low-key, so apart from Liu Bei's main generals, outsiders Most of them don't know their relationship.

After Lan Tian followed Liu Qi to Quanling, he took the initiative to claim that he was Liu Qi's confidant brought from Xiangyang. This method of confusing the public had a good effect, and even Liu Qi himself was willing to believe this rumor.

Liu Bei kept a low profile in Guiyang. If he behaved too conspicuously, not only Liu Biao would be jealous, but even Sun Quan in Jiangdong would be wary.

Lan Tian remembers a line in the TV series "Kangxi Dynasty": Obai always strives for strength, and Bumbleshan always shows weakness.

Let Liu Bei learn from Bumble to show weakness, and he can only be Oboi with Liu Qi, so that he can confuse everyone.

Just when everyone finished discussing the military situation and greetings, Mi Zhu walked into the hall with a pale face.

Seeing this, Liu Bei said: "Zizhong came at the right time. I was planning to go to Chen County to call you. Ziyu just took Wuling. You and Yide need to manage it together."

"Wei, I wonder if I can take up the post later?" Mi Zhu asked for instructions.

"I think Zizhong's complexion is not good. Could it be that he is physically impaired? You can seek Zhang Zhongjing's diagnosis and treatment." Liu Bei said seriously.
