New Story of Lv Bu - chapter 1248

Since two years ago, in the spring of the twelfth year of Jian’an, after receiving a letter from Yan Dalang, the uncle Yuan, the governor of Guishuang, the conqueror of North Hindustan, the protector of Wusun, Dawan, and Kangju, Lu Zheng immediately recruited After the military commander, he began to deal with how to help his father. Before Lu Zheng’s departure, Lu Bute asked Gong Cao Zhuan to build a huge sand table, as well as a map of the world’s mountains and rivers that had just been drawn 70%, and let Lu Zheng take it with him. The son’s expedition for thousands of miles, the father’s heart is evident from this.

After more than ten years, Lu Bu’s Baigong has fully mastered the method of making sand tables and maps, and inferred from one another, dividing the huge sand table into more than a hundred small pieces and labeling them. In this way, the long-distance march is very convenient to carry. Whenever it comes to camping, the first thing is to put this sand table together. Lu Zheng often stood alone in front of the sand table, pondering for a long time.

“The chief governor, help the lord, the most important thing is to pacify Yizhou, Jingzhou, or Yangzhou for him. However, our army is far away in North Hindustan, how can we rush to the big man?” The first speaker was the one who spoke. Suritang, now, he is a third-rank miscellaneous general. “What’s the matter? Let’s lead the army to fight over!” Yau Livas slapped his chest and said loudly. Yaolivas is a powerful general under Lu Zheng. In his eyes, as long as there is enough army and food, everything is not a problem.

“Yaulivas, you are right! But, how do we fight it? Isn’t it possible to fly over with wings like an eagle?” Apiz is a wandering singer, and his speech is always humorous. He opened his mouth. , It made everyone laugh. After laughing, everyone present fell into contemplation. Yes, North Hindustan and Dahan are thousands of miles away, how can we fight them?

“Now, we have unified the entire North Hindustan, and many small countries in South Hindustan are weak in combat power, which is not worth mentioning. In my opinion, most of the guards should personally lead the army to return to their homeland and help the lord!” Shuang Chang Shi Gaixun, he has always been solemn and resolute, unsmiling, as long as he takes the lead, even Lu Zheng dared to confront him face to face. As soon as he spoke, everyone Lika calmed down. “As for how to return to the homeland, Guishuang will not work. It will not be possible to return to the Central Plains without four or five years.”

Having said this, Gai Xun pondered for a moment, reached out and picked up a small wooden staff, lighted the northeast of Hindustan, and said slowly. “We set off from the northeastern part of Hindustan and invaded Jiaozhou. This area is full of plains and there are not many mountain passes. Sun Su can pass by our army’s elephant troops, camel soldiers, and cavalry. The rivers of Jiaozhou are crisscrossed and can be used by boats To deliver food and military supplies.”

“Well said!” “Gai Changshi’s words are great!” “Good!” “Right!” Upon hearing Gai Xun’s words, everyone exclaimed. “Well said! Acting like this not only saves time, but also saves tens of thousands of miles. It is indeed an excellent solution! Most importantly, it coincides with my idea!” Lu Zheng’s eyes gleamed. , Said aloud.

“The Jiaozhou Shepherd Xie has long since turned to the court. He would never have any opinion on the way to the Northern Expedition of Jiaozhou. After the army entered Jiaozhou, I took the Dahan’s caravan as a forward, and went all the way. If you take it, you will be outspoken. If you can’t be outspoken, you will attack. In a word, those who follow me will prosper against me and perish! As long as you are obedient, everything will be there.

Lu Zheng’s temperament is to do what he says is what he does. He immediately took measures to deal with the case. “My father’s cause of unifying the world is deadlocked. As a son, he must help his old man! Gai Changshi, you stay in North Hindustan, supervise Guishuang, Wusun, Dawan, and Kangju, and provide food for the expedition army. Cao. Sex, as Gai Changshi’s assistant, you are stationed in Guishuang. Jia Ji, Gao Han, Song Qian, Cheng Xun, Suritang, Yao Liwas, Apiz, Alimu, you lead your troops and follow me on the expedition to Jiaozhou Yizhou!”

“No!” Everyone here suddenly agreed, and went away separately. The expedition to Jiaozhou and Yizhou is decided on this matter.

Since that day, the entire North Hindustan has been busy from top to bottom, preparing food, armor, and military resources for the expedition. For this expedition, Lu Zheng prepared an army of 120,000, including Hindustan light infantry, Kangju, Dawan light cavalry, Han heavy infantry, Greek heavy infantry, Han heavy cavalry, elephant soldiers, and vine armor. Have. With the addition of the logistics force, there are as many as 200,000. There are tens of thousands of carriages for transporting grain, armor, and military resources. Three months later, the army set out to advance towards Jiaozhou.

However, Lu Zheng still has one thing unreliable in his heart, and that is how to use the caravan to win the battle. A month later, after the army arrived at Jiaozhou Mu’s governing place and Ying Lou County, Jiao Zhou Mu Shi Xie led hundreds of officials to greet him twenty miles out of the city. Then Shi Xie gave a big banquet to reward the expedition army. Early the next morning, Shi Xie Qingche Jiancong came to visit Lu Zheng, and Lu Zheng expressed his doubts.

“The chief governor, this matter is easy to handle! At this time, there happened to be a caravan in the city of Win Lou. It is said to be a giant merchant from a big man. The caravan has thousands of people and more than 10,000 camels. It is only the accompanying samurai. There are three thousand people, well-equipped. The leader of the caravan is two women with high martial arts. I will invite them to come over and discuss the matter with the chief governor!” Shi Xie waved his hand, his face was full of smiles. He was naturally very happy to be able to help the second son of Wen Wang Lu Bu, the chief governor of Guishuang, and the king with hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

“Oh? There’s still this matter? Bother Laozhou Mu quickly have a request! If it really fulfills my wish, Lu Zhengdang will not hesitate to give a great reward! When I see my father, Shijiaozhou’s achievements in the future, I will faithfully play it!” With Shi Xie’s words, Lu Zheng was immediately overjoyed. Half an hour later, the two women came here gracefully, both of whom were about forty years old. Although they were not very beautiful, they had a vigorous and heroic spirit. “Dahan Xingyu Jade Luosha and Cao Jie have met the chief governor!” Seeing Lu Zheng, the two shopkeepers leaned over and gave a salute.

“Two shopkeepers, please sit down! Come here, serve tea! Good tea! Lu Zheng has something to ask! I hope the two shopkeepers can help!” Lu Zheng didn’t talk nonsense, and said the idea in his mind. . At this moment, he was already prepared, if the two of them refused face to face, he would order the guards to kill them on the spot! At least he must be detained in Jiaozhou, and he will be released after he captures Yizhou. After all, the lives of a few people have nothing to do with the importance of the military state. Throughout the ages, have there been no dead ghosts in that temple?

Unexpectedly, after Lu Zheng finished speaking, Jade Luosha grinned and said softly. “General Governor, what is the big deal for me? I scared the little girl out of a cold sweat! I have been doing business all the year round, and I have only traveled twice on the road from Jiaozhou to Chengdu. This time I came back from Daqin, and I have to go there. Luoyang City, the capital of the great Han. What the governor said can be done for us! Not only that, most of the tribe chiefs along the way have business dealings with us, and I can persuade them to return to the great man for you!”

Lu Zheng was immediately overjoyed when he heard Yu Luosha’s words. However, his maternal grandfather is Wanhu Hou Kangmanti, and his tutor is quite deep. He suppressed the surprise, and said slowly. “Treasurer Jade, you are the wealthy businessmen of the big man. In business, you can just mention what conditions are available! As long as I can do what Lu Zheng can do, I will agree to all!” Upon hearing this, Jade Rakshasa smiled. With greater intentions, she secretly said in her heart: “This second son Lu is really amazing!” “The governor, our requirements are very simple, there are only two. First, when you pass your territoriality, our taxes will be halved. Its Second, the Han army has the responsibility to protect us along the way.”

“Okay! The deal! In addition, I will go to the court and make the two treasurers a marquis!” Lu Zheng said loudly.

With the help of the caravan of Yuluosha, Lu Zheng’s army marched much faster. In remote places like Jiaozhou and Yizhou, the most popular caravans are the Jade Rakshasa. Salt, ironware, horses, and all kinds of daily necessities depend on them. Every time the caravan crosses the border, the tribes along the way will celebrate with a feast, lest they leave these big merchants in the cold, and will not take their own territory next time. In this way, under the silver bullet offensive, where Lu Zheng’s army went, the four counties in the south of Yizhou, Yongchang, Yizhou, Yuexuan, and Zhangke, descended to Wangfeng. Not only that, but the tribe leaders of the four counties also sent troops and food to assist the army.

Knowing that Lu Zheng’s army had fought near Chengdu in Shu County, Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang was awakened like a dream. Frightened, Liu Zhang gathered civil and military officials to discuss strategies for defense. The Dongzhou faction, headed by Fazheng, Fei Yue, Wu Yi, and others, advocated surrender. They were originally refugees in Guanzhong and Sanfu. The Xizhou faction, headed by Zhang Ren and Huang Quan, advocated vigorous warfare. They are Yizhou tycoons who guard their homes and are naturally unwilling to easily accept the land and return. “In that case, just hit it!” Liu Zhang sighed sighingly.

Therefore, Zhang Ren urgently recruited 40,000 young and Zhuang people in Chengdu, and together with 10,000 county soldiers, they defended Chengdu. Lu Zheng had been in the old battle, and when he saw this posture, he smiled and immediately ordered the attack. More than a hundred thousand troops lined up outside the city, their military capacity was neat, and the flags fluttered. All the Yizhou soldiers in the city were scared and trembling. Sure enough, after two hundred catapult wheels bombarded and collapsed a section of more than 20 long walls, Lu Zheng used heavy infantry assault, Yizhou soldiers were defeated, Zhang Ren died in battle, and Yizhou city was broken.

Lu Zheng stayed in Yizhou for seven days to comfort the soldiers and civilians of Yizhou, promote the local family of Junyan, and send him to work in Luoyang City, the capital of the Han Dynasty. At the same time, he went to the court and named Liu Zhang a first-class returnee, and a hundred officials of Yizhou civil and military were appointed according to the original rank. After leaving 10,000 troops to garrison Chengdu, he collected ships and went down the river, and went straight to Jiangling. The sails cover the sky and the sun.
