Han Xiang

Chapter 229
Longxiang is as important to Hefei as Hefei is to Jianghuai. Lu Su and Liu Ye set up plans for him based on their interests.

The two considered Longchamp's safety, that is, Hefei's stability and unity, and completely took Sun Quan's character into consideration.

Father and son can become enemies in the face of interests, and Long Xiang is a person from the future world, and has the advantage of "knowing himself and the enemy" to famous figures in the Three Kingdoms.

The father and son of the Sun family have the same blood, and they also have the tradition of backstabbing for profit.

Sun Jian used to be the prefect of Changsha. He first backstabbed his superior Jingzhou Governor Wang Rui to death, and then backstabbed his colleague Nanyang prefect Zhang Zi; Sun Ce backstabbed Yuan Shu to establish himself as the lord of Jiangdong;
At this time, Sun Quan was only [-] years old, and he had not yet gained a stable foothold at the beginning of his ascension. Although Long Xiang guessed that he would not be eager for quick success and quick success to fight Hefei, but the Sun family had ancestral backstab skills, and Long Xiang had to think about it. Therefore, he adopted Lu Su's strategy.

Three days later, Long Xiang waited on the bank of Chaohu Lake in the south of Junqiu.

There is a well-built dock there, and the tower next to the dock is very eye-catching. There are two small shops selling soup, rice and turbid wine under the tower.

On the surface, the small shop by the lake is for fishing and boating people in Chaohu Lake to have a rest. In fact, it is an information station set up by Longxiang, which has the same function as the restaurant set up outside Liangshan Po.

The shopkeepers and assistants are not ordinary merchants, but soldiers of the cavalry battalion subordinate to Cao Xing.

Longxiang plans to build more than ten such "information stations" on Chaohu Lake. On the one hand, they will be used to monitor the changes of warships in Jiangdong, and on the other hand, they will enrich the fish market in Hefei and escort the normal fishing in Chaohu Lake.

There are currently three docking areas that have been completed. The place Long Xiang chose to meet is the farthest to the east. Except for Xu Chu and a dozen swordsman guards around the shop, the rest of the Tiger Guards are hidden two miles to the north. They will follow the flags on the sentry tower color action.

Just after noon, more than a dozen Jiangdong warships slowly approached the agreed place.

These warships have been monitored by Cao Xing's patrol boats and land scouts since the Yangtze River turned into the Ruxu River, allowing Long Xiang to grasp the information before the meeting.

As a person in the future world, Long Xiang is well aware of the importance of intelligence to warfare. The teacher was able to fight the Tianxiu Sidu in Chishui back then, and the timely and accurate intelligence work is indispensable.

Long Xiang is not as good as Lu Su in commanding and running the army at this time, but his concept of war is far ahead of this era. He wonders if he can make telescopes in the future and install them on the lookout posts along the line. Then he will use semaphore and telescopes Together, it is a simple strategic communication system.

Perhaps the Jiangdong warship had just appeared on the Yangtze River, and it was still two days away from Hefei. Long Xiang knew the number of enemy ships, flags and other information within two hours, and grasped the intelligence to grasp the initiative in the war.

When Long Xiang was meditating on the top of the tower, Lu Su lightly touched his sleeve to remind him:

"Yun Qi, Sun Quan's fleet has arrived, we have to come forward to meet you."

"okay."

Long Xiang thought farther and farther from the telescope, thinking about how to make false promises with Sun Quan in the future, thinking about those excellent spy movies in the future, whether certain plots can be used for reference, and even thought of the radio stations for future wars.

Lu Su's pat lightly brought Long Xiang back to reality. There is no electricity in this era, so what kind of radio station are you fantasizing about?His profession can improve construction skills, but it can't improve productivity.

It is best to eat food bite by bite. The advancement of science and technology requires the industrial revolution, and the Three Kingdoms era is far from the soil for the germination of science and technology.

In the process of going downstairs, Long Xiang gave up his unfounded fantasies, and also thought of a fatal reality, that is, systems and ideas that transcend the times cannot be introduced indiscriminately, and the evolution of society requires time and stacking.

Walking to the pier with Lu Su, looking at the approaching Jiangdong fleet, Long Xiang turned his head and asked curiously: "Zijing is very smart, can you guess what Sun Quan asked me to talk about?"

"I only met Sun Quan once. Although this person is young but has a deep personality, I really can't guess what he wants to do. Maybe defeat Li Shu to show off his power? If so, he is better than Sun Ce; maybe he really came to get acquainted with Yunqi? After all, you two The two are similar in age, so it's inevitable to cherish each other." Lu Su shook his head lightly.

Lu Su was going to sit in Hefei, but Liu Ye persuaded him to go with Long Xiang.

Lu Su once went to Jiangdong as an envoy, and he has some friendship with Sun Quan. In case of any conflict between the two, he can also play a role in mediating and smoothing things over.

Long Xiang was noncommittal, turned around and asked Xu Chu: "Sun Quan traveled with more than a dozen warships. It is conservatively estimated that there are hundreds of people traveling with him. Zhongkang only brought a dozen guards. Are you confident to protect us?"

Xu Chu replied solemnly: "It's only a few hundred people, and the last general can count as ten. Besides, the main force of the Tiger Guard battalion is in ambush not far away. If they see the signal and rush to help, they will be able to wipe out all of them. Keep General and Sir safe and sound,"

"Total annihilation is not necessary. Even if Sun Quan is killed now, there are other people in the Sun family, so there is no need."

Long Xiang shook his head lightly, and then told him: "If there is a conflict, remember to protect Zijing first, and I should have no problem protecting myself."

"Yun Qi." Lu Su frowned: "Do you think I can't use a sword? General Xu naturally takes you as the most important thing."

Long Xiang joked with a smile: "Haha, Zijing doesn't like this, when will you be able to fight against Yide, and when will you say this to me again."

"This"

When Lu Su was at a loss for words, Long Xiang saw a general standing on the deck of the leading ship. He saw that this man was wearing a golden helmet, and he was waving his hands to greet him proactively: "Are you respectful on the shore?"

"General Sun"

Lu Su raised his hand in response, and turned around to remind Long Xiang: "Yun Qi, it's Sun Quan who has arrived."

Long Xiang nodded and joked in a low voice: "Sun Zhongmou looks well-dressed from a distance, but if you look closer, does he have Sun Ce's demeanor?"

Lu Su was taken aback when he heard that, and thought that you can always come up with some new tricks for me, why care about people's appearance at this time?Although Sun Quan and Sun Ce were born to the same mother, their appearances are far from each other.

Because he was worried that Long Xiang would be unrestrained, Lu Su hurriedly reminded: "Yun Qi is careful, don't judge people by their appearance later, that would be too impolite."

"Hey, it's just a joke, look at you nervous"

Long Xiang responded to Lu Su with a smile, strode towards the front of the pier, clasped his fists and saluted Sun Quan with a smile on his face: "General Sun is really punctual, nice to meet you, nice to meet you."

"Zi Jing."

Sun Quan first bowed his head at Long Xiang, then looked at Lu Su and asked, "Is this General Long? Sure enough, the hero of Huainan, I invited Yun Qi to meet at Chaohu Lake, but I made you wait so long, I'm rude, I'm rude."

"Actually we also"

Lu Su was about to be polite, but was interrupted by Long Xiang: "General Sun is the lord of Jiangdong, and I should wait for the small county guard to wait. There is often a cold wind blowing by the lake. It is not a place to talk. We might as well come Talking to the small shop in front? When I came just now, I asked the shopkeeper to prepare wine."

"Alright."

Just as Sun Quan uttered two words, he saw the tall general behind him cupping his fists and making a suggestion: "My lord, we also have warm wine on board, why don't you invite General Long to meet on board? Aren't you meeting on a cruise?"
