- "Yu Ji, a stinky Taoist priest, wants to leave Jiangdong?"
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu looked at each other. They both looked a little surprised and didn't seem to believe it.
This person was a Langxie family in Jiben. When the world was in chaos, he moved to Jiangdong, established a religious altar, and recruited many disciples. It was even said that he could make talisman water to cure diseases. He was very famous in Jiangdong and had many believers, including many powerful families. , even the officials under Sun Ce.
After Sun Ce unified Jiangdong, he was very wary of Ji's prestige among officials and people. He wanted to get rid of him several times, but he was afraid of arousing public anger, so he didn't do anything.
After the current defeat at Yuan Fang, Sun Ce made up his mind to get rid of the hidden danger of Yu Ji and completely secure Jiangdong.
Who would have thought that just when Sun Ce was determined to kill him, Yu Ji would take the initiative to pack up and leave and leave the northeastern part of the Yangtze River. How could this not surprise Sun Ce?
"This stinky Taoist priest, I tried every means to drive him away in the past few years, but he still won't leave. Why is it that he suddenly wants to get out now?" Sun Ce asked curiously.
Zhou Yu was also puzzled. He supported his useless leg with one hand and his forehead with the other. He pondered for a moment and raised a proud sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"No matter what the reason is, it is of great benefit to us anyway. Since the smelly Taoist priest took the initiative to leave Jiangdong, it just saved Bo Fu from doing anything. In this way, he avoided the public outrage caused by killing Yu Ji. Isn't this right? It¡¯s not in line with your wishes.¡±
Hearing Zhou Yu¡¯s analysis, Sun Ce¡¯s eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly: ¡°Gong Jin¡¯s words are reasonable. In your opinion, should I let him go to Jibei?¡±
"Let him go, of course he must let him go. Not only do he have to let him go, but you should also give him food and rice packages, and generously send him north. In this way, you can also take the opportunity to win people's hearts." Zhou Yu said with a sly smile.
Sun Ce nodded repeatedly, with a sneer on his lips.
"Come here, please bring me the boat that is located at Daozhang into the water village. Give them grain and rice, and then respectfully send it to Daozhang north to preach."
¡¡
At dusk, three civilian ships docked in Ruxu Port.
On the bow of the largest ship, a gray-robed Taoist priest with beard and hair stood in the wind, watching the officers and soldiers quietly. Bag after bag of food and grass were carried to the ship.
"Yu Ji has repeatedly made things difficult for me before, but today he saw that I was about to leave, but he was so generous in sending food and rice. Sun Ce, Sun Ce, you are really good at taking advantage of the opportunity to win people's hearts."
Yu Ji smiled lightly and murmured to himself. There is a hint of irony hidden in it.
"Master, the grains and rice that Sun Ce gave us have been packed." Behind Yu Ji, a strong young Taoist priest with two swords on his back said.
Yu Ji nodded, waved his hands and said: "It's not late yet, it's important to hurry up. Qingchen, let's set sail for the north immediately."
The Taoist priest named Qing Chen responded and wanted to leave, but he seemed to have something to say but stopped talking.
"Qingchen, if you have any questions, just tell me clearly." Yu Ji easily saw through the young Taoist priest's mind.
"Master preaches and saves people in Jiangdong, which is very popular among the people. Our Taoist altar in Qu'a is also growing day by day. I really don't understand. Why did master suddenly leave Jiangdong and go to the north?" Qingchen asked puzzledly.
"My master doesn't want to leave Jiangdong or Qu'a, but my second senior brother sent people to recruit him one after another. He said that there was something extremely important and asked me to go north to help. My second brother has a destiny, so I have to follow him. "Yu Ji said helplessly.
"Uncle? Uncle, he asked Master to go north. What's the important thing?" Qingjian asked curiously.
"I don't know as a teacher. I can only find out after meeting him. Qingchen, there is no need to ask any more, it's time to leave." Yu Ji said.
The young Taoist priest named Qing Chen stopped asking any more questions and stepped back.
Not long after, three civilian ships left Ruxu Port and sailed north.
On the wall of the dock, Sun Ce stood with his hands behind his hands, watching as the person he feared finally left his territory, and then he let out a long breath.
¡¡
Shouchun City.
The Qi army returning from the north is stationed here. Large troops have been moving northwards in a steady stream. Yuan Fang himself and tens of thousands of Chinese troops have not yet set off.
"These remnants of the Yellow Turbans are really strong in vitality. At this time, they still dare to cause trouble." Yuan Fang stared at the piece of information in his hand and said in a deep voice.
That was an emergency report from the upper reaches of Shouchun and Fubo County.
Local officials reported that two generals, Liu Pi and Gong Du, from the Yellow Turban remnant party, gathered the Runan Yellow Turbans to attack the southeastern counties of Runan County, threatening to go south along the Huaihe River to attack Shouchun City.
It was this news that made Yuan Fang very angry, and he planned to stay for a few days until the remnants of the Yellow Turbans were wiped out, and then return north.
Runan County was originally the border between Yuan Fang and Cao Cao. Because the land was mountainous, Yuan Fang only captured several counties in the southeast of the county and close to Shouchun to defend the upper reaches of Shouchun.
The rest of the counties are either in the hands of Cao Cao or belong to the "Three No Matters" areas.
Nowadays, the Yellow Turbans in Fubo and other places in the upper reaches have reappeared, threatening the important town of Shouchun. Yuan Fang naturally has to pay attention to it.
"There are many mountains in Runan. If the Yellow Turban bandits are victorious, they will attack the city and plunder the territory. If they lose, they will flee into the mountains and forests. It is not easy to wipe them out in one fell swoop." Jiang Gan said.
Yuan Fang nodded slightly, and then asked the counselors and generals to speak freely and talk about their strategies to kill this group of bandits as soon as possible, so as not to affect his plan to pacify Guanzhong.
While they were discussing, a Yi Cong hurriedly came into the account and said with cupped hands: "Your Majesty, a good report has just arrived from Runan, saying that Liu Pi and Gong Du have been killed, and the Yellow Turban bandits have been wiped out."
This piece of information really refreshed Yuan Fang and the civil and military personnel.
Yuan Fang couldn't help but wonder: "I just called for help and killed the Yellow Turban bandits on my own so quickly. When did the local officials in Runan become so capable?"
"Your Majesty, the victory report stated that a young county official named Lu Meng came up with a plan to trap and kill Liu Pi and Gong Du, and then defeated the Yellow Turban bandits. The prefect of Runan has ordered Lu Meng to bring the heads of the two thieves and come to Shou on a starry night. Spring is offered to the Lord.¡±
Lu Meng?
The name is so familiar that it rings in my ears like thunder, but I don¡¯t want it to ring in my ears at this time.
"Could it be that this Lu Meng is the Wuxia Ameng who made a surprise attack on Jingzhou and captured the arrogant Guan Yu?"
Thinking quickly, Yuan Fang searched for memories, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"If I remember correctly, although L¨¹ Meng in history was a general of Soochow, he was from Runan. The prefect of Runan said that L¨¹ Meng offered a plan to trap Liu Pi and Gong Du. He must have had this plan at such a young age. There is no doubt that he is truly Lu Meng.¡±
Thinking of this, Yuan Fang laughed loudly, and suddenly felt the joy of finding an unexpected fortune.
You know, what Yuan Fang lacks most now is navy generals. However, Lu Meng was one of the four major governors of Soochow in history. He was not only very good at military strategy, but also an expert in commanding the navy.
"With Lu Meng, together with generals like Xu Sheng, Jiang Qin, and Tai Shi Ci who are good at water warfare, Yuan Fang could compile a powerful navy army for him. It is not impossible to prepare for the future attack on Wu.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. Yuan Fang immediately ordered the army to stay for a few more days, waiting for Lu Meng to come.
¡¡
Two days later.
L¨¹ Meng arrived day and night, carrying the heads of Liu Pi and Gong Du. When he arrived in Shouchun, he asked for a meeting outside the tent. Yuan Fang happily ordered the general to come in.
After a while, a young general stepped into the tent, cupped his hands and said, "L¨¹ Meng, Lieutenant of Fubo County, pays homage to the Lord."
"Excuse me." Yuan Fang waved his hand.
Lu Meng stood up. He stood with his head bowed, calmly and calmly, but he did not feel any trembling nervousness when meeting the world-famous Yuan Fang.
Yuan Fang took a look at him and saw that although Lu Meng was not handsome in appearance, he had a calm demeanor and a sharp gaze, which seemed to contain wisdom.
"Lu Ziming, tell me, what clever trick did you use to trap and kill the two thieves Liu and Gong?" Yuan Fangfa asked.
Lu Meng then cupped his hands and said slowly: "Actually, it's not really a clever plan. The Yellow Turban thieves were just burning, killing, looting, and greedy for money, so their subordinates took advantage of the thieves' greed. They used the transportation of grain and grass as bait to attract the thieves to lead their troops to plunder. , but set up an ambush in advance, just in time to catch all the thieves. "
???????? With an understatement, without any hint of arrogance and complacency, this Lu Meng is indeed extraordinary.
"Although the plan is simple, the difficulty lies in being able to discern the enemy's weaknesses. Being able to do this is not easy."
Yuan Fang expressed his approval and then said: "Seeing that you are quite strategic, I would like to ask you what preparations I should make if I attack Wu in the future."
"The soldiers and horses have not moved yet, and the food and grass go first. I believe that if the Lord sends his troops south in the future, the first thing he will do is to establish a large-scale farmland in the southeast to store food and grass."
After a pause, Lu Meng continued: "For the second thing, my subordinates think that the Lord should quickly select soldiers from Xu Yang who are proficient in water skills, organize and train the navy, and build a large number of warships. If the navy is completed, there will be sufficient food and grass. With the power of the Lord, when the time comes, we will send our troops south, so why worry about the injustice in the east of the Yangtze River."
This Lu Meng did not think twice, as if he had been prepared, he spoke out his analysis in a fluent manner, and he hit the nail on the head, matching Yuan Fang's thoughts in every way.
"This Lu Meng is indeed a piece of jade!"
Yuan Fang appreciated it more and more, but then said: "Food and grass are not a problem, the key is the navy. Soldiers can be chosen, and warships can be built. However, the Yangtze River is not an ordinary river. How to train an army that can adapt to it?"Jiang Jiang's navy can't do it just by talking. "
Lu Meng smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said: "The Yangtze River is nothing more than a wide water surface with strong winds and waves. But no matter how big it is, how can it be bigger than the sea? I think that my lord, why not train the navy in Xu Yang's offshore area? As long as our water If you can adapt to the wind and waves on the sea, there is nothing to fear about the wind and waves in the Yangtze River."
Training at sea?
Yuan Fang hesitated for a moment, then laughed loudly, as if Lu Meng's words suddenly gave him great inspiration.
"Good, good, good, what a strategy for training troops at sea!"
Yuan Fang praised L¨¹ Meng, and then looked directly at L¨¹ Meng, "L¨¹ Ziming, now I want to transfer you to the southeast coast to build warships and train the navy for me. Do you have the courage to take on this important task?"
Since it is determined that Lu Meng has great talents, Yuan Fang has no reason to use them.
Lu Meng was surprised, as if he had not expected that Yuan Fang would entrust him with an important task because of his remarks.
From a small county lieutenant to a general who organized and trained the navy, Lu Meng could be said to have reached the sky in one step, how could he not be surprised.
After being excited and excited for a long time, Lu Meng took a deep breath and said seriously: "Since the Lord trusts the general so much, the general will live up to the Lord's respect and do his best to train an elite water soldier for the Lord. "
Yuan Fangshen appreciated L¨¹ Meng's self-confidence, so he immediately issued an appointment order and set up a banquet in the tent to honor L¨¹ Meng for his contribution.
The wine was full, but at this moment, the soldiers came in again, cupping their hands and saying: "Your Majesty, there is news from Luoyang. Master Dong has called on all the civil and military officials in the country to jointly submit a letter to the emperor, asking the emperor to grant the emperor nine increments. Xi, be granted the title of King of Qi." - Didn't finish reading?
