Chapter 279 The truth is a disaster

At this time, the composition of Taishi Ci's strength is: a thousand powerful soldiers, 600 Xiongnu cavalry, 400 soldiers, two Yanyun guards, and some other new recruits with good combat effectiveness. The generals who followed the army were Gao Shun and Sulman. Of course, there is also the monkey gold owner. At this time, Tai Shici's attack power is all dependent on the gold owner...

Most of the soldiers in a battalion are good at fighting in the jungle and water. They are rare amphibious soldiers. Only a small part of them are the soldiers of the mixed army, and these soldiers are the original prisoners... In Tai Shici's view, these people are very useful: one is the best choice of the leader, and the other is the excellent materials for reporting the battle reduction after the war.

This does not mean that there is something wrong with Tai Shi Chumanity and character, but for the purpose of balance: usually these people have no ambition, no talent and no virtue, no big law, constant small mistakes, and no effort to work, which gives the boss a headache. Now the war has begun their bad luck! ... Some of them were also distracted: a soldier wanted to escape, but before he went out of the barracks for two miles, he was caught by Sulman and escorted back to the school military field and was dismembered by five horses in public...

Just as Sulman warned afterwards: There are many ways to die. As a man, as a soldier, the death method of escaping is the most shameful, and the most shameless way to escape from the battle. I hope you can take it as a warning! ...Sulman's majestic warning made these soldiers very calm!

There are two roads that can be reached from Dingyuan County to Huiji County in Shanyue. One is from the waterway along the east of the river to Jianye, and then go south to reach Huiji County by land or sea. The second way is from Jiangxia County to the southeast through the hinterland of Changsha County and go straight to Huiji County. The first road takes a month, and the second road takes 20 days. However, the second way is the time period, but the road needs to climb mountains and wade in water, and it needs to pass through inaccessible forests, especially the army, and the supplies on the way cannot be replenished in time. The first kind of walking method takes a long time, but it is all official, and the supplies on the way to march can be supplemented in time.

According to the war report of Shanyue Huiji County, for some reason, Zhou Yu, the governor of the Water Dragon Army, has led a large army to leave Huiji County. Lv Meng, the governor of Huiji County, was deeply involved in the battlefield and was besieged by the rebels at this time. At this time, he could only passively defend. At the same time, due to the strict blockade of mountain barbarians, the grain and materials in the rear could not be sent to Lv Meng at all. As a result, the morale of the army is low and the situation is very critical.

In order to be in a hurry, Taishici led his army along the southeast and crossed the hinterland of Changsha County and went straight to Huiji County. When encountering water, climbing mountains, and crossing through forests, these ordinary troops feel troublesome and headaches. In the eyes of the soldiers under the command of Taishi Ci, it is just a boring and lonely scenery on the way to the march. Well-trained and well-prepared is different. It took Taishi Ci a few days to arrive in the county of Huiji County in 15 days.

As a new city, Huiji City looks very simple. The towering walls are piled up with irregular bluestone blocks, which is not beautiful. From afar, the guards on the wall were listless and sickly. Only the handsome flag embroidered with "Lv" fluttering in the wind, looking very angry. Add some vitality to the old-fashioned and simple city.

Previously, Taishi Ci learned from the war report from Huiji County that today's Huiji County, only Huiji City is still under the control of the Jiangdong army, and the rest of the vast areas are occupied by the rebels. Because the Jiangdong army is not good at jungle warfare, Zhou Yu, the governor of the Water Dragon Army, has led the main force back to the city in the north...

But under the city, Tai Shici did not see a trace of a rebel. Tai Shici was surprised: Why didn't the generals such as Zhou Yu and Lv Meng mention this phenomenon in the war report? Lying about military information, isn't Zhou Yu and Lv Meng such a person?

Opening the gate, Lv Meng and Lu Xun welcomed the arrival of Tai Shici's army. Lv Meng and Lu Xun lost their former elegant demeanor. They were all yellow and thin, with no eyes, and looked like sick.

Lv Meng and Lieutenant Lu Xun, the governor of Huiji County, were also surprised to see Tai Shici. At this time, Tai Shici was dressed as a scribe and fiddling with the folding fan in his hand from time to time. As a general, Tai Shici did not ride a horse, but sat on a chariot pulled by a white horse and a yellow horse. The ancient bronze chariot was rusty, which was obviously already The ancient chariot eliminated by the contemporary war. Behind the chariot, the two fierce generals in front of the phalanx composed of 2,000 cavalry, and they also met for the first time. The two fierce generals are obviously the martial arts cultivation of the innate realm... Such a formation makes them feel that Taishi Ci is really not simple... Of course, the two also have a disgruity for Tai Shici: such talents, such military and horse strength, are actually suppressed by some people everywhere in Jiangdong...

The two sides met, exchanged greetings for a while, and then entered the city. Gao Shun and Sulman led the troops to the barracks. Under the protection of the two Yanyun guards, Taishici followed Lv Meng and Lu Xun to the county house.

In order to show his sincerity, and in order to let Lv Meng tell the truth, Tai Shici, who sat cross-legged, said to Lv Meng, who was kneeling on the main seat, "Lv Taishou, I accidentally hurt the meridians by practicing kung fu a few days ago, and now I'm recuperating. Ha ha, General Lu don't have to worry. He can barely do it if he leads the army to war!"

"Oh, does the Lord know?" Lv Meng asked with emotion.

"Ha ha, Sun Hou knows the injury of Ben Jiang, but out of secrecy, no one outsiders knows the current situation of Ben Jiang except Sun Hou..." Tai Shi Ci replied with a smile, and then he asked softly, "General Lu, what's wrong with you and your subordinates? Is it that the water and soil are unconvinced?"

When Lv Meng heard the words, his expression changed from concern to sadness. He shook his head and said, "Captain of Taishi, you don't know anything. I also have something difficult to say..." Tai Shici looked at Lv Meng with a solemn expression. He had no words and looked like he was waiting for Jiayin. Of course, he knew that Lv Meng's next words would not be Jiayin.

"At the beginning, Zhou Dudu and Ben Taishou led the army to fight against the Shanyue barbarian rebels and began to win every season. Finally, Yan Baihu, Rao Shuai and other traitors who occupied the city of Huiji were driven into the deep mountains and old forest by thunder..." Lv Meng's expression did not have the expression of joy of the winner. "Later, Zhou Dudu and Ben Taishou led the army into the mountain forest to encircle and suppress the rebels, but they did not think of being hit by Yan Baihu and other traitors, and accidentally ate the poison thrown by the rebels... In the end, Zhou Dudu and Ben Taishou returned without success. Through the torture of the prisoners, Ben Taishou learned that there were spies inside our side. They colluded with Yan Baihu inside and outside, which caused us heavy losses... Hey!"

Finally, Lv Meng sighed heavily.

"Oh, spy? In this way, why didn't General Lu report it to Sunhou?" Taishici asked doubtfully.

Lv Meng just shook his head and did not respond to Tai Shici. At this time, the young Lu Xun opened his mouth and said, "Taishi Dudu, this Shanyue barbarian rebellion has both internal and external causes. Comparatively speaking, this barbarian rebellion is an external cause leading role... Taishi Dudu, do you know Sun Hao, an uncle of the Lord?"

"Oh, Sun Hao, Marquis of Poyang?" Of course, Tai Shici knows this person. This man is Sun Quan's eldest uncle and the eldest brother of his father Sun Jian. There are insoluble contradictions between him and Sun Quan and Zhang Zhaohandang, a rich clan, but in response to the strong rise of Taishici, Sun Hao and Zhang Zhaohan Danghe formed a secret alliance...

Lu Xun nodded when he listened to Tai Shici's words, looking helpless. At this time, it is not convenient for Lv Meng and Lu Xun to say some words...

Even so, Tai Shici understood the actual situation of Huiji County through their expressions and words: the barbarian rebellion in Huiji County was obviously promoted by Sun Quan's uncle Sun Hao. Sun Hao must have made some attractive promises to Yan Baihu and others. The reason why Sun Hao did this is obviously to seek a position and usurp power, which also shows that he still has many helpers.

It was originally a rebellion of local barbarian tribes, but it turned out to be the family affairs of the Sun Group!

It is difficult for Zhou Yu, Lv Meng and others to intervene in such family affairs, especially without conclusive evidence. They can only brake staticly and watch the change. Of course, they also secretly reported to Sun Quan: there are spies inside... But who it is, let Sun Quan investigate it by himself!

There are very few people at the senior level of Sun Quan Group that can make barbarian leaders trust and cooperate intimately, and the scope of investigation is also small. It was Sun Quan who found out who was the originator, and what could he do?

Tai Shici understood the actions of Lv Meng and others. If it were him, he would be the same in the face of such a difficult problem. After all, at this time, Sun Quan's authority is far less than his father Sun Jian, and even worse than his brother Sun Ce, and he can't suppress the opposite of competing with him. If Sun Quan forcibly eradicates those opposites, Jiang Dong's strength will be greatly reduced, and from then on, Jiang Dong will fall into an extremely chaotic infighting situation...

"Well, I would have understood your pain!" Tai Shici nodded with a smile on the corners of his mouth, "General Lv, for today's plan, we can only catch Yan Baihu and others alive, and then let them testify to Sun Hao's old thief!"

Hearing this, Lv Meng continued to shake his head. He sighed and said, "It's not easy to catch Yan Baihu and others alive. The jungle is their refuge, and they have poison, which is unpreventable... Taishi Dudu, to be from the bottom of my heart, in fact, the Lord also knows who the spies are and who is the main messenger behind Yan Baihu, but the Lord has no choice! ... At this time, the boundary of Wuyue needs stability and unity! Governor of Taishi, for today's plan, we can only wait."

Tai Shici is not afraid of the poison of the barbarian tribe, because he has the help of Diao Chan, the owner of the witch sect. For Diao Chan, the poison of the barbarian tribe is too childish. Their poison trick is just in front of Diao Chan, just an axe in front of Lubanmen - Banmen.

But Taishi Ci will not take the initiative to expose Diao Chan unless he has to. There are many ways to have one more secret. In particular, the upper layer of Sunquan Group is covered with dark clouds and the mountain rain is coming. The power struggle is not a joke. Without iron evidence, Sun Hao's side will say: If you want to commit a crime, why not say anything? As a result, Sun Quan still had to bear the notoriety of family-s-murfed. At that time, who dared to turn to him?

Silent waiting is the only choice at this time. However, how to deal with the food and fodder of Lv Meng? What about the poison on their bodies? ...Tai Shici thought to himself.

As if he knew what Taishi Ci was thinking, Lv Meng said, "Tai Shidu, although Huiji County is located in a remote area and lacks materials, the mountain fruits and wild vegetables here taste good, wild boars, wolves, hares, forest birds are all over the mountains! ... As for the poison, it only causes trouble to our soldiers. The poison is not fatal, and it only occurs once every three or five days. Ha ha, when the poison attacks, although the pain can be endured! ...Zhou Dudu led a large army to leave the territory of Huiji County, and the poison of his subordinates was cured..."

Tai Shici heard about it and raised a thumbs-up to Lv Meng to show his praise. Lv Meng and Lu Xun are both rich people. It is enough to see the valuable quality that they can take the lead. The so-called "the cold year knows the pine and cypress, and the road knows the horsepower"...

What Lv Meng lacks, Tai Shici is not lacking. The grain, grass and water carried by his army are enough for his own troops to enjoy for half a year. Tai Shici knew that the mountain fruit mentioned by Lv Meng is tropical subtropical fruits, citrus, bananas, pineapples and other fruits that are indeed rare in the north. If it hadn't been for the war, it would have been that these fruits would still be unknown and unknown to northerners.
