Three Kingdoms, at the beginning of the game, recognize the thief as the father, hit the spectacle,

The last youngest son, Liu Zhang, is submissive, fatuous and incompetent. Although he is loved by his father Liu Yan, he is actually worse than his three elder brothers.

Poor Liu Yan, the hero of the generation, obviously personally facilitated such important events as Fei Shili Mu, and forced the big man to continue his life for decades, but his own descendants are full of trash, and no one is available.

This kind of Yizhou, when Liu Yan was still there, naturally sat far away in the sky, extremely stable.But once Liu Yan died, Yizhou would be surrounded by wolves, no different from Dongfangqing and Xu Erzhou.

……

As for Jingzhou... let alone.

Jingzhou has been plagued by wars since decades ago. At the time, Jiang Xiamen even invaded the counties of Yangzhou all the way along the Yangtze River. None of the prefects and governors in various places could punish the disaster. Although Liu Biao is a royal family, he also took these There was nothing the local rebels could do.

According to Jia Xu's current understanding of the general trend of the world, if Liu Biao wants to gain a firm foothold in Jiangnan, he must first solve various local rebellions.

The previous governor of Jingzhou, Wang Rui, died at the hands of Sun Jian.

To put it bluntly, if Jia Xu were Liu Biao, he would definitely find a way to use this opportunity to get Sun Jian transferred to a county in the north, at least he would not be able to stay in Jingzhou anymore.

There are only a few counties in Jingzhou, and more than half of them have listened to Sun Jian. Who else is willing to obey his orders?

If it doesn't work, then simply send your soldiers to find a way to kill Sun Jian on the way back...

As long as Sun Jian died outside Jingzhou, how the four counties of Changsha dealt with it became his own business, Liu Biao, and outsiders were no longer qualified to intervene.

In such a chaotic place, how could someone like Jia Xu follow in and meddle?

……

In fact, there were thirteen states in the Eastern Han Dynasty. After this selection, the only choice left for Jia Xu was the last one-Yangzhou.

Jiangdong's fish and rice support people...

From a geographical point of view, Yangzhou is located in a remote place, which is beyond the reach of the imperial court.

If Jia Xu finally chose Yangzhou as his destination, then even if there was a great chaos in China, Yangzhou must be the last place to be invaded by the army, because it is too far away from Luoyang.

In terms of development, Yangzhou is actually not as desolate as most people imagined——

In other words, the truly desolate places in Yangzhou are Yuzhang County and Kuaiji County in the south of it.The combined area of ​​these two counties is almost equal to the combined area of ​​Qingzhou and Xuzhou, but the actual population is only a little over 100 million.

The remaining counties and counties near the mouth of the Yangtze River, such as Jiujiang and Lujiang, are relatively richer than those in the south.

From the leader's point of view...

Zhang Yan, the current Kwantung Allied Army, is the Lujiang prefect of Lujiang County, Yangzhou.As a literati, Jia Xu has naturally heard of the various prestige Lujiang created in the Han Dynasty in recent years.

Such a leader, even if his current status is not as good as Liu Yan, Liu Yu and others, is not something that those third-rate lords can casually touch.

……

What Jia Xu can be sure of is that under the current general environment, Zhang Yan is probably the most suitable leader for him, or even the only leader suitable for him.

And more importantly, Jia Xu is convinced that the collision between the Kwantung Allied Forces and Dong Zhuo will definitely end in Dong Zhuo's failure. Then how much improvement will Zhang Yan, the leader of the Allied Forces, get from his current situation?

Not to mention the big ones, there should be a seat for the head of a simple state, right?

Now is not the time for the emperor Liu Hong to suppress the world. The state herd... Jia Xu believes that it will soon no longer be exclusive to the Liu clan.

Furthermore, Zhang Yan has always been a benevolent person in front of outsiders since he first became famous a few years ago.

This is not to say that he is really benevolent, but a person who shows himself to be a benevolent lord will never use his subordinates to do stupid things like killing donkeys.

Working under him, Jia Xu can get what he needs most, which is a "good death".

……

After making a decision, Jia Xu turned around and glanced at the barracks behind him, hesitated for a moment, and finally walked towards the barracks.

Of course, he can also leave here without looking back. Even Jia Xu can be sure that, judging by Zhang Yan's personality, there is a [-]% chance that the other party will accept him directly.

It's just a pity that not long ago, Jia Xu had just presented a lot of poisonous tricks to the generals of Dong Zhuojun. All the people who listened to his advice died on the battlefield.

And once the fact that he offered poison to harm others leaked to Zhang Yan, his future lord, no matter the reason or reason, as a benevolent advocate, Yan would not treat it as nothing happened.

The most likely possibility is that he, Jia Xu, was excluded by Zhang Yan's subordinates because of this matter, or was ordered to punish him.

Even if he was lucky and Zhang Yan didn't directly punish him as a subordinate, Jia Xu's life in Lujiang would not be too easy in the future just because of his plan to massacre the city.

……

"Tsk, do you still want to go back?"

"If it's not enough to go directly like this, then what I need most now should be..."

"It's the so-called nomination certificate."

Looking thoughtfully at the people coming and going in the barracks, after thinking for a long time, Jia Xu decided to use his best method to find some suitable bargaining chips for his future behavior of relying on Zhang Yan .

……

Inciting emotions, driving tigers to devour wolves, instigating thieves and lasciviousness, and even bewitching people's hearts...

It can be said that Jia Xu, who has been honed in the middle and grassroots for decades, is most familiar with the way of playing with people's hearts.

His understanding and control of people's hearts has reached the point where he can do it at his fingertips.

Well, now comes the question.

He needs to take advantage of his last position in Dong Zhuo's army to find a suitable nomination certificate.

Who in this army can take on the important task of voting for a certificate?

And who is the tiger that can be driven, and who is the wolf that can be swallowed up?

……

Thought of here

Jia Xu slowly walked towards her tent...

……

Chapter 65 Concealment

"Ah Rong, have the enemy troops outside and below retreated?"

Leaning against the city wall, Sun Jian wiped the wound on his abdomen, turned around and asked the captain of the guards beside him.

……

Let's talk about Sun Jian's side for a while, after Jia Xu offered his plan, Niu Fu really started to attack the city according to the series of poisonous plans given by this person.

Only this time, Niu Fu's siege was no longer a direct attempt to open the city gates, but a series of desperate tricks.

No water, no food, no rest, and even a plague.

It would have been fine if one or two of these shady tricks were used, but now Niu Fu was using them on Sun Jian and the others, and they cooperated with each other to promote each other, and immediately caught the defenders in the city by surprise.

Now, three days have passed, and the water source in the city has been cut off for three days.

Just three days ago, the No.1 soldier discovered that the well water dug out of the well was mixed with a lot of dark and greasy things for some reason, and under the sunlight, it even reflected a strange light.

Almost at the same time, the granaries in the city began to catch fire frequently.

Even if Sun Jian had the heart to deal with it, the soldiers were all made of flesh and bones, not steel and iron, so how could they bear such a toss?

Visible to the naked eye, within these three days, the defenders in the city began to quickly fall into exhaustion, and their physical condition was getting worse day by day.

What was even more frightening was that on the morning of the third day, Cheng Pu, a general under Sun Jian, reported that a small-scale plague had occurred in the city, and the source of the plague was also those released from outside the city. The filthy corpses that were found and disposed of.

……

As we all know, among the many tactics of war, the strategy of exhausting soldiers is the most difficult to deal with.

Thinking about the conflict between Wu and Chu thousands of years ago, King Helu of Wu sent Wu Zixu to weaken Chu with exhausted military tactics. Even though the king of Chu knew about it, there was nothing he could do about Helu's behavior.

Today's defenders in the city, compared to a few days ago, are simply weaker by an unknown number of levels, and they are already close to reaching the end of their strength.

If those people before, under the leadership of Sun Jian, made the iron wall built by Changzi County invincible, then the current Changzi County is as if pinched with muddy water, and if you poke it lightly with your fingers, it will become a big hole.

The reason why these armies were able to hold on without breaking up without water and food was because of the last ray of hope passed on to them by Sun Jian.

That is to say, there is a support army coming day and night to Shangdang where I am. As long as I persist for a while, everything will be fine.

Although even Sun Jian himself didn't know when the so-called reinforcements would come, and whether the so-called reinforcements would come.

Faced with such an approaching crisis, no matter how anxious Sun Jian looked, he still had nothing to do.

There is no way, the current situation has put him in an overwhelming disadvantage. When the guys from the Xiliang Army outside the city decide to attack the city at all costs, it is only a matter of time before Zhangzi County falls.

……

"Arong?"

"Arong, are you listening?"

……

He called out to his own captain again, Sun Jian slowly opened his eyes, turned his head to look, but saw Zu Mao leaning against the wall like mud, holding two knives tightly in his hands, and from time to time, he heard a voice coming from his mouth. There were slight grunts.

Obviously, Zu Mao's personal strength was not considered outstanding among Sun Jian's many retainers, and being able to support Sun Jian until now was already his limit.

"Hey, Demou, take Arong down and have a good rest."

Sun Jian turned and looked in another direction, a tall middle-aged man cupped his hands towards him.

"Obey, my lord."

It was another retainer of Sun Jian, Cheng Pu Cheng Demou.

I saw that Cheng Pu was also dressed in rags and armor, and the iron spine snake spear in his hand had long been stained black and red by blood, and it looked textured and even a little greasy.

Just now, Cheng Pu used this spear to stab into the belly of a Xiliang Army general who was leading the siege, and saved Sun Jian from the siege of the crowd.

After arranging two of his closest retainers to get off the city wall, Sun Jian himself stood up holding his weapon, and slowly turned his gaze to the position below the city wall.

There, a large number of soldiers wearing Xiliang army uniforms were slowly retreating.

While they left a large number of corpses, they also caused huge casualties to the defenders in the city.

Sun Jian's heart couldn't help feeling a little heavy as his eyes wandered over the bodies of the many dead.

……

Yes, after three days of exhausting the strategy, on the night of the third day, Niu Fu drove the army under his command to attack Zhangzi County again.

This time the offensive was more violent than any previous one.And this time the defenders are more tired and vulnerable than ever before.
