Han Shimou

Chapter 697 Battle of Jiaozhou

Shi Xie's character Wei Yan, a person from Cangwu Guangxin. His ancestors were originally from Wenyang, Lu. During the rebellion of Wang Mang in the Western Han Dynasty, his ancestors took refuge in Jiaozhou. After the gift of the father of the sixth supreme scholar Xie, he was the governor of the southern Japan during the reign of Emperor Huan, and the scholar family rose from then on. When Shi Xie was young, he studied in Beijing. He took Liu Ziqi from Yingchuan as his teacher and studied the spring and autumn of the Zuo family. Later, he inspected Xiaolian, supplemented Shang Shulang, and was removed from office due to official business. After the expiration of the funeral system given by his father, Shi Xie raised Maocai, removed the witch order, and moved to the governor.

After Shi Xie was ordered, he immediately sent Zhang Min, the general, to the court to thank him and offer tribute. When the world was in chaos, the road was cut off, and Shi Xie did not abolish the duty of border tribute. The Han court saw that Shi Xie was loyal and intended to let him lead Jiaozhou, so he added Bai Shi Xie as the 'General of Anyuan' and was awarded the title of 'Longdu Ting Marquis'.

At that time, the Han Dynasty had experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the Shichang Rebellion, and the warlords' melee, and its influence on Jiaozhou was greatly weakened.

Shi Xie is nominally the governor of Jiaozhi, who was loyal to the Han Dynasty. In fact, he has become a warlord of Jiaozhou and counties. Most of the relatives of the Shi family hold important positions in Jiaozhou, such as Shi Xie's three younger brothers, Shi Yi, Shi Huang You and Shi Wu, who served as Hepu Taishou, Jiuzhen Taishou and Nanhai Taishou respectively.

The Shixie brothers are also counties, and they are the head of one state, but they are in thousands of miles, and they are supreme. In and out, the bell is ringing, equipped with prestige, the flute is preached, and the car is full of road. There are often dozens of people who burn incense with hubs. My wife and concubine took the chariot, and the children rode from the army. At that time, it was valuable, and it could be said that they were shocked. The power of the scholar family continued to be huge, and because of the war in the Central Plains, Liu Biao was exhausted to protect Jingzhou. How did he have the energy to pay attention to the affairs of Jiaozhou? Gradually, the power of Jiaozhou almost fell into the hands of the scholar family, and Shi Xie became the uncrowned king of Jiaozhou.

The nine counties of Jiaozhou are rich in grain and remote, far away from the disputes in the Central Plains. Sun Jian from Jiangdong has been peeping for a long time. At that time, Lai Gong and Wu Ju have a dispute over the struggle for power and profit. Lai Gong is also an ambition. Seeing that the world is in chaos, he wants to be the king of the state. Wu Ju was loyal to Liu Biao. How could he condone Lai Gong's ambition? He raised an army to attack Lai Gong immediately. Lai Gong was invincible and sent an envoy to ask Liu Biao for help. Liu Biao knew his evil intentions and killed him. When Lai Gong saw that Liu Biao was not saved, he knew that it was Wu Ju. In a hurry, he asked Jiang Dong Sun Jian for help. Sun Jian is worried about having no excuse to capture Jiaozhou, and Lai Gong is the nominal pastor of Jiaozhou. This time, Lai Gong's request for help is exactly an open and righteous excuse for Sun Jian to capture Jiaozhou.

After Sun Jian got Lai Gong's letter, he rewarded his envoy and immediately prepared soldiers and horses from Jiangdong and Yangzhou to capture Jiaozhou. And because Sun Jian is in his old age, although the majestic wind is still there, the terrain of Jiaozhou is rugged and difficult to walk on miscellaneous roads, and there are many aliens in Jiaozhou, which are tough and difficult to attack. Therefore, Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao and other advisers strongly admonged Sun Jian and asked Sun Jian to attack the war in Jiaozhou and hand it over to his son Sun Ce.

Sun Jian is old and has also had the intention to hand over his family business to Sun Ce. This war in the state just allows Sun Ce to establish his prestige in the army. In the hearts of the scribes, he deepens his reputation and stabilizes his status as the son of the world. After the handover, Sun Ce will be able to handle the soldiers and generals and civil officials.

Therefore, Sun Jian followed the expectations of the public and asked Sun Ce to lead the 50,000 Jiangdong army, with Zhou Yu as the military division, Lu Su as the general, Zhou Tai as the general, the governor's military horse, Chen Wu and Pan Zhang as the deputy generals, and dozens of Jiangdong generals, looking forward to Jiaozhou. Sun Ce's army was very strict. In addition, there was Zhou Yu's supervision, and the brigade walked according to the team. Hungry food and thirsty drinking, living in Xiaoxing at night, where you go, autumn has nothing to offend.

However, Wu Ju heard that Jiangdong sent troops, and the descendants of the tiger came to control 50,000 troops. Wu was shocked and knew that he was not the opponent of the Jiangdong army. His advisers under his command advised him about the truth that his lips were dead and his teeth were cold. He suggested that Wu Ju went to seek help. Wu was so happy that the Shi family had great power in Jiaozhou and was deeply supported by aliens. With his help, he would be able to repel the soldiers and horses in Jiangdong. Therefore, Wu Ju immediately repaired a letter and sent a messenger to Jiaozhi to see Shi Xie. After the ceremony, Wu Ju came to ask Shi Xie to send troops to help. Shi Xie originally hoped that Wu Ju and Lai Gong would fight. After killing both of them, he suddenly sent troops to sweep away the fallen leaves with the autumn wind and get the benefits of the fisherman.

Shi Xie sneered in his heart and was about to refuse, but Wu Julai suddenly said.

"Ming Gong knows that a great disaster is coming!"

Shi Xie's eyes suddenly condensed and said coldly.

"I have never intervened in the battle between Lai and Wu, and I have been ordered by the court to guard this place and never commit anything. How can there be a big disaster?"

Wu Julai changed his face and said strangely.

"The nine counties of Jiaozhou are vast and rich in grain. Liu Jingsheng from Jingzhou, Liu Jiyu from Yizhou, and Sun Wentai from Jiangdong have all been coveted for a long time. This time, Lai Gong couldn't resist my master's soldiers and sent a letter to ask for help from Jiang Dong. Sun Wentai was already Ying Nuo, and sent his son Bo Fu to lead a 50,000 army to Jiaozhou. In Jiangdong's army, there were not only tigers sitting in the town, but also Zhou Gongjin, who was as wise as a demon, as a military division. These two people led the army together, and my lord asked himself that he was invincible. That's why I hope to get the help of Ming Gong.

The Ming Gong family sits in the land of the four counties of Jiaozhou. If Sun Wentai is in Jiaozhou, how can Rong Shi's family be the dominant family in Jiaozhou? At that time, I'm afraid that Ming Gong wants to be compatible, and it is difficult for Sun Wentai to be compatible!"

After hearing this, Shi Xie's face changed dramatically, and his whole body couldn't help trembling, but he quickly stopped it, pressed the urgent fire in his body, and said coldly.

"It's a big deal, let me think about it for a few days."

"How dare the villain force it, but there is not much time at the moment, and I hope the Ming Gong can make a final judgment as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the Jiangdong army arrives, the Minggong's soldiers and horses have not yet moved. The Jiangdong army is determined to hit the yellow dragon with a thunderbolt. At that time, Minggong will regret it.

Wu Ju came to snort coldly, and after saying it in a hurry, he left.

Shi Xie's face was unpredictable, and he was still on the big seat for a long time.

If you ask the most irresistible thing in the world, it must be right. How could Shi Xie give up easily? In the hegemony of the uncrowned king of Jiaozhou, he immediately sent people to fly to Hepu, Jiuzhen and the South China Sea, and ordered his three younger brothers to come to Jiaozhi.

Shi Yi, Shi Huang You and Shi Wu were shocked to hear that the Jiangdong army was going to Jiaozhou. They were all shocked and rushed to Jiao toes. They discussed with Shi Xie. The four brothers discussed for one night. Finally, they got the same result and sent troops to help Wu Ju and resisted the Jiangdong army.

So Shi Xie took all the soldiers and horses of the four counties and rushed to the front of Jiaozhou to join the soldiers and horses of Wu Ju. Wu Ju and Shi Xie joined the army together. Wu Ju voluntarily gave way to Shi Xie and let him lead the army. Shi Xie did not delay. He took over the position of general. After several people agreed, they divided the army into three ways. Shi Xie took the middle road, Shi Yi, Shi Huang You, Shi Wu, Shi's three brothers on the left, Wu Ju on the right, and a total of 50,000 to 60,000 troops on the three roads to meet the enemy. Shixie Shiling Lin Xian is the front vanguard.

It is said that Lin Xian is nine feet long, with an ugly face, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, which makes a mace a mace, and he is brave. Lin Xian immediately led the headquarters soldiers and left the village to welcome the soldiers and horses in Jiangdong.

At this time, Sun Ce's army had arrived at the boundary of Yizhou. The front vanguard Zhou Tai, and the deputy generals Chen Wu and Pan Zhang entered the boundary of Jiaozhou and met the army led by Lin Xian. Although the two armies have no great enmity, they are their own masters. At present, they are hostile to each other, which is incompatible with water and fire. The two armies are in the same place, with a big position.

The sound of drums rose to the sky, and the sound of horns stirred the sky. I only saw the soldier's army and the Jiangdong army, two rounds. Zhou Tai clapped his horse and stared at the tiger. Lin Xian scolded and scolded.

"The thief, why don't you get off the horse and get down!!!"

Lin Xian was furious. Without saying a word, he went out to fight with Zhou Tai. The two of them flew with knives and sticks, and the huge metal slamming was endless and fierce, and the soldiers of the two armies were stunned.

Zhou Tai thought that Lin Xian was brave. If there was no hard battle for 20 or 30 rounds, it would be difficult to win or lose. Zhou Tai made a plan and fought with Lin Xian again. Zhou Tai was defeated fraudulently. Lin Xian roared and then came.

Zhou Tai retreated and secretly gestured with Chen Wu and Pan Zhang in the battle. Chen Wu and Pan Zhang understood and immediately ordered the soldiers and horses to prepare. After Lin Xian chased Lin Xian for a few miles, he suddenly saw the shouting and shocked. Chen Wu and Pan Zhang led their troops to rush to Lin Xian and kill him. Zhou Tai returned with a knife, and the three of them fought fiercely. In less than a few, Lin Xiansheng was captured. Lin Xian was captured, and his soldiers fled in a panic at first sight. Zhou Tai led the army to cover up for a while, killed nearly a thousand soldiers of the soldiers, and then released Lin Xian to the fortress to see Sun Ce.

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are discussing the matter of sending troops to help Wu Ju for Shi Xie. Suddenly, soldiers came to report the victory on the front. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu heard that Zhou Tai won a great victory first, and even captured Lin Xian, the vanguard general of Sergeant Xie. Zhou Yujun smiled slightly on his face, and taught Sun Ce to do so.

After that, the two of them paid the bill together. As soon as Sun Ce saw Lin Xian, he ordered him to remove the binding on his body and called the soldiers to get wine and food. Sun Ce followed Zhou Yu's order and asked first.

"This righteous man, a tiger and a tiger, listen to my future report, and I heard that your martial arts skills are very good. I don't know who the righteous general is?"

When Lin Xian saw that Sun Ce was so polite and virtuous, his original evil state was also a little better, and he replied angrily.

"A certain general of Shixie!"

Sun Ce smiled brightly and immediately said again.

"It turned out to be a general of the Shi Gong. No wonder the righteous man is so brave. I know that Shi Gong is a loyal and righteous man, and now he must be confused by Wu Ju, so that he is like this. I'll let you go back now, and you advise the prince to return early to avoid a big disaster. My father had already told me that if he could calm down Jiaozhou, he should not touch the scholar's family and mistakenly violate the prestige of the scholar.

Lin Xian's face changed so much that he quickly thanked him. He went back to see Shi Xie and talked about Sun Ce's virtue. Shi Xie heard that even if Sun Jian got his friendship, he did not want to remove the power of the scholar family. He couldn't help but be shocked, but he believed it endlessly.

The next day, Wu Ju arrived at the village, and Shi Xie led the crowd to welcome him. After the ceremony, Wu Ju found Lin Xian behind Shixie and his face changed. Previously, he had heard that Lin Xian had been captured in the back, but at this time, Lin Xian returned unharmed. He couldn't help but be suspicious and asked.

"I don't know how to get Lin Xian back?"

Shi Xie frowned and was quite unhappy, but he said back.

"This is Sun Bofu's righteous release."
