Chapter 282 Chaos(1/2)
Wei Ju sent troops!
For Liu Kan, the situation is as chaotic as possible. Only in this way can he get along well in this chaos and arrive in Henan smoothly.
Wei Ju has not yet conquered Sui Yang.
But in order to show sincerity, Liu Kan ordered Lu Shizhi to personally escort the first batch of baggage and quietly sent it to Qixiang, Dangshan. Wei Ju was not polite and asked his brother Wei Bao to take it personally. Just a few days ago, Wei Bao conquered Yu County, not far from Qixiang.
Of course, the first batch of baggage could not have been delivered in full according to the earlier agreement.
There were only 30,000 stones of food and grass, 80,000 iron-shaped carved feather arrows, and 3,000 pairs of excellent Qin army equipment. Among them, there were 300 pairs of liangdang armor, all of which were made of 72 steelmaking. This was undoubtedly a timely help for the Wei army, who was short of food and clothing and extremely scarce supplies. Especially the 300 sets of liangdang armor made Wei Bao even more ecstatic, and on behalf of his brother, he expressed his gratitude to Lu Shizhi.
With this excellent Liangdang Armor, the chances of survival in the battle formation will undoubtedly increase greatly.
Of course, it is impossible to have an ordinary military soldier in this kind of armor, but the generals of the Wei army can be equipped, which is particularly precious.
"Brother-in-law, you don't know that Wei Bao was so happy that he couldn't stop after seeing the armor. He also promised me that he would launch an offensive against Suiyang before the New Year... Also, Mr. Zhou Shi also accompanied me. He told me that Pei County will be presented at the end of the first lunar month at the latest."
Liu Kan did not speak out, standing on the top of the city and looking out, with a strong sense of reluctance in her eyes.
This land was built by him. Sihong back then was just a ruined wilderness, but now it has become a land of fish and rice.
If it weren't for this war, perhaps in another ten years, Sihong would become the richest place in Chu.
But now... I have to abandon this land. I don’t know when I will come back and what will the Lou Cang look like when I come back?
"Have you returned from the people sent to Chengqiu?"
"Not yet!" Lu Shizhi replied softly: "But I think it's only been the situation in the past or two days, Brother Peng shouldn't refuse."
After Emperor Shinn died in Pingyuanjin, Liu Kan was forced to flee to Jiuyuan.
Soon, Peng Yue died of his mother's illness, abandoned his official position and left, and returned to Juye to mourn his mother.
After Liu Kan returned to Lou Cang, he sent someone to contact Peng Yue. Peng Yue's answer was very straightforward. As long as Liu Kan could arrive at Juye, he would definitely help. At the same time, Peng Yue also assured Liu Kan that his former subordinate Hu Ji was now a young official in Dunqiu, in charge of military affairs and was responsible for guarding the Dunqiu Ferry. As long as Liu Kan led his troops to arrive at Juye smoothly, Peng Yue could ensure that Liu Kan crossed the river.
Hu Jue?
Liu Kan had some impression.
That was a very knowledgeable young man next to Peng Yue.
He was very gentle, but when fighting, he was extremely fierce. At the beginning, in Pingyang, Hu Zhi had three arrows on his body, and blood was flowing, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered, killing the Tian family's guardians. At that time, Liu Kan joked to Peng Yue: Hu Zhi was simply Peng Yue's desperate maiden.
Unexpectedly, it has become a guardian now.
Although it is just a small ferry, it is of great use to Liu Kan.
"Junhou, Junhou..."
There was a sound of horse hooves on the galloping road in the Lou Cang City Wall.
A personal guard rushed up to the city and saw him rolling down from his horse and kneeling on one knee: "June, a man from Xiangxian County, send a urgent document."
Lord Li ordered me to come and notify Junhou and ask Junhou to go back to the government office to discuss matters immediately."
Liu Kan was stunned and looked at the personal guard in surprise, "Xiangxian? Who is the person in Xiangxian sent an urgent document?"
No wonder he was confused. Since Ying Zhuang's death, Loucang and Xiangxian almost lost contact. Of course, Liu Kan himself did not want to contact Xiangxian. If something went wrong, it would be a huge trouble. But unexpectedly, Xiangxian suddenly contacted himself at this time. Who was it? What happened? Liu Kan couldn't figure it out for a moment.
But since there are people from Xiangxian County, Liu Kan cannot neglect it.
He asked Lu Shizhi to continue inspecting the building and cage, and then hurried down the city tower with Liqiu Jibu. Someone had already led the Red Rabbit Horse over, and Liu Kan turned over and took the two of them to beat the horse and whipped it straight to the government office.
In the government office, Li Cheng was accompanying the two of them, chatting and laughing.
When Liu Kan walked into the hall, she couldn't help but be surprised and shouted in surprise: "Li Bi, Luo Jia? Two big brothers, why are you?"
The person from Xiangxian County turned out to be Liu Kan's old acquaintance.
Li Bi and Luo Jia, born in the Iron Eagle Soldiers, once accompanied Ren Xiao in Pei County and participated in the battle of encircling and suppressing Wangling in the Daze of Zhaoyang. After that, Liu Kan and these two had many contacts and even played together in Yongzhengyuan. However, during the Henan War, Li Bi and Luo Jia went out of Zhenyunzhong and failed to participate in the battle in time. Later, Liu Kan also had contact with them, and later he heard that they were transferred to Xianyang.
After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Kan did not expect it would be them.
Li Bi Luo Jia and the other two stood up to greet each other, "Your Majesty has been together for many years, and you are safe."
To be honest, looking at Liu Kan, the two of them were also quite emotional. Thinking back then, Liu Kan was just a young man, but now he is the Marquis of Guannei. Li Bi and Luo Jia were not promoted slowly, and now he has become the Central Army General. But compared with Liu Kan, the gap is too big... However, these two people also heard some news, and looked at Liu Kan with complex eyes.
However, Liu Kan didn't care at all and seemed very excited to pull the two of them.
"Two brothers, how could you come here?"
"This... we are here to ask Lord and Hou for help under the orders of General Zhang Han and General Sima Yi."
"Sima Yi?" Liu Kan was startled. The cunning treacherous and cunning of the Three Kingdoms also traveled to this era. After hearing Li Cheng's explanation, he realized that this Sima was not the Sima. Liu Kan couldn't help but laugh and then looked solemn, "What's the point of asking me for help?"
Li Biluo Jia looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
"June, we have heard more or less about your affairs. General Zhang Han probably heard about it... The court has a lot of opinions about June and Hou. Although we sympathize with each other, we are soldiers after all. I really don't know how to speak about some things.
General Zhang Han only said: Please give some help to the 800-li Qinchuan elders.
As for the court, General Zhang Han will do his best to save the Lord and Hou. If he really wants to fight with him, he can let him and Hou go three times."
I want him to let the water go?
Liu Kan couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
But when he thought about it, Zhang Han held a heavy army and if he really wanted to cause trouble, Liu Kan would have a headache.
After thinking about it, Liu Kan said, "What's the matter with General Zhang Han asking me?"
"The war in Chen County has basically ended, and that Zhang Chu and Chen Sheng are just struggling to death. A few days ago, General Zhang Han and General Sima Yi each led a group of troops and attacked Dang County and Xiang County from Chen County. Now, General Sima Yi has recaptured Na Xiang County."
Liu Kan's heart skipped a beat, and looked at Li Biluo Jia and the others without saying anything.
"But Junhou must also know that Xiang County is no longer the same year and has been destroyed. In addition, it was attacked by rebels in the Sishui area and was extremely scarce. After General Sima Yi regained Xiang County, there was a problem with food, grass and supplies... Luoyang needs support from the three places, which is unbearable."
"The Yingchuan war is not over, why should Luoyang support the war in the three places?"
"The Lord and the Lord have no idea. Li You County Magistrate Restoration and led his troops to send troops to Dongjun, which has relieved the pressure of Xuejun. In addition, General Zhang Han of Dang County, Dong Yi Duwei of Chen County, and Sanchuan County have reached its limit, and it is impossible to estimate General Sima Yi.
General Zhang Han and General Sima Yi discussed that the only one who can support Xiangxian County is Junhou’s Lou Cang.
When we were about to come, General Sima Yi said that he sent troops to Sishui County to avenge his uncle and ignored all the other matters. As long as the king and the lord can provide support, within the scope of Sishui County, he can do his best to help the king and the lord."
This condition is very attractive!
If you think about it carefully, Sima Yi and Zhang Han were also helpless.
Lou Cang stored more than 60% of the supplies in Sishui, Dang County, Donghai and Huaihan. The war has lasted for a year, and the treasury in various places is not very abundant, but Lou Cang has abundant supplies. Sima Yi of course could attack Lou Cang first, and he has seized food and supplies. But the problem is that although Lou Cang was small, he considered all factors during the construction. If he wanted to attack, he would probably suffer a loss.
Zhang Han once served as the Shaofu and was also responsible for managing construction matters.
After the Lou Cang was completed, the drawings were sent to Xianyang. After Zhang Han looked at it, he said that the Lou Cang was simply a tortoise shell and it was difficult to get down. However, he was very happy at the time, thinking that a place like Lou Cang could stabilize the Huai and Han area.
But now...
Zhang Han didn't know how many soldiers there were in Lou Cang.
But he knew that if Lou Cang could not hold on, Sima Yi would not be able to hold on at all.
Since there is no hope, there is no only way to negotiate with Liu Kan. As for Liu Kan, there is no need to be afraid... He controls Sima Yi's food route, and no matter what Sima Yi does, he needs to think twice before he can do it. On this issue, Liu Kan's building warehouse is absolutely superior.
After Li Biluo Jia and the others said this, they couldn't help but look at Liu Kan nervously.
That is to say, the areas controlled by the Qin army can be rampant without any obstacles? As for those war-torn areas, Liu Kan is not very worried.
As long as you can reach Juye, Peng Yue will respond.
The rebels in various places... are not yet in the weather. At least on the line of Lou Cang Juye, there are no armed forces worth worrying about except Liu Bang. Liu Bang? After Sima Yi sent troops, he was afraid that he would be too busy to take care of himself, so how could he have the ability to take care of other things?
"Well, General Sima Yi, how much baggage is needed?"
Li Bi took out a list and handed it to Liu Kan.
Liu Kan looked at it, "There is no problem with these baggage, but I can't send it out at once. Let's do this, let's stay, I will send out the first batch of baggage, 50,000 stones of grain and 100,000 arrows, and take it away by your people. I believe General Sima Yi will send someone to accept it...
After General Sima Yi conquered Xiao County, I will issue the second batch of baggage.
When the general occupy Pengcheng, I send out the third batch of baggage; then the general's baggage in the Sihong area will be carried by my Lou Cang, how about it?"
This is equivalent to jamming Sima Yi's throat!
Even if Sima Yi wants to repent at that time, he will probably think twice before he can do it.
However, Li Biluojia and the others did not expect that Liu Kan would detain him and they wanted to refuse, but when they touched Liu Kan's eyes, they felt a chill in their hearts. Liu Kan is no longer the boy of the past. The person this guy killed was enough to make Li Biluojia scared. Moreover, Sima Yi would not refuse if he gave him and received plenty of supplies.
Luo Jia smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, we appreciate it...but we both are going to stay in the building warehouse soon, so I'm afraid it's not very useful."
The meaning is clearly: Your Lou Cang is not mainly based on the cavalry. If we keep us, we will have no place to use our skills.
Li Bi gently pulled Luo Jia and looked at Liu Kan with some concern.
Liu Kan smiled, "I have some small things and want to ask you two to comment. Why not do this? The two elder brothers and Shoushen go to the barracks to see how the cavalry in Lou Cang are? After seeing this, if the two elder brothers still want to leave, I will never try to keep them."
Li Cheng glanced at Liu Kan, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
After reading the secret of the Loucang Cavalry, if you want to leave, you are afraid that your heart will be left, and people will definitely be kept.
Li Bi Luo Jia and the other two were speechless, but also helpless.
However, after seeing the Lou Cang Cavalry, Li Bi Luo Jia and the others seemed very excited.
The little complaints about Liu Kan before disappeared. The stirrups were high saddles, what did these two items mean to the cavalry?
To be continued...
