The most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 713
Jiujiang County.
Yinling, Xiquyang, Shouchun, Dangxu, Xiacai, Ping'a, Yicheng, Zhongli, Chengde, Hefei, Junqiu, Quanjiao, Fuling, Liyang, Lu Su has been traveling in these fourteen cities recently..
Lu Su was a capable man, eloquent, and of extraordinary origin, so he would be welcomed when he visited local wealthy families.
At this time, Lu Su came to Ping'a County and visited the Huang family, a wealthy family in Ping'a County.
The current head of the Huang family is called Huang Rui. He was quite martial in his youth and served as a knight.
Huang Rui was a little unfamiliar with Lu Su's name. However, Lu Su was also from a wealthy family and represented Sun Ce this time. Therefore, Huang Rui warmly entertained Lu Su.
Huang Rui's village was built on the mountain.
The village is built on the mountain, like a mountain city. There is a spring on the mountain to ensure the water supply.
When Lu Su came, he noticed that around the stronghold, young men carrying bows and arrows and holding swords and guns walked by from time to time.
There is no doubt that these armed forces belong to Huang's own private soldiers.
The Ping'ahuang clan has considerable influence in the local area and has a lot of land.
The family's retainers, private soldiers, etc., totaled more than 2,000 people.
When Lu Su entered the village, he observed the layout of the village.
The village is embedded in the mountain, and the residential area is hidden by the mountain.
Food can be stored in the stockade, and there is a high wall outside the stockade. The high wall is made of earth and stone, and you can shoot arrows from a high position.
It is not easy to attack this stronghold without professional siege equipment.
The Ping'a Huang clan has a total of nearly 30,000 people, all of whom were originally scattered outside Ping'a.
Now the clan members are all called together by the clan.
In the village, young people can still gather at any time.
The importance of the support of aristocratic families to a prince can be seen clearly.
If you need people, you need food.
If we can get their support, we can assemble a huge force in a short period of time.
Of course, these people are now also local armed forces and do not have to listen to orders.
After Lu Su and Huang Rui exchanged simple greetings, they bluntly stated their intentions.
Huang Rui knew that Sun Ce would find him sooner or later. After all, Shouchun was not far away.
If you want to get food, Ping'a County will run away.
But why would Huang Rui give grain to Sun Ce?
The Huang family has a city of its own in Ping'a, and at the same time, there are tens of thousands of tribesmen who are self-sufficient.
Even if bandits and bandits come, Huang can handle them himself.
On the other hand, Sun Ce's garrison in Ping'a only numbered more than a thousand people.
Armed with these thousands of people? It’s good to be able to hold the county seat, but still have the energy to exterminate the bandits?
Moreover, Sun Ce has continued to raise troops since he occupied Yangzhou, which made Huang Rui quite dissatisfied with Sun Ce.
Because Huang Rui could also see that the current general situation in the world was that Zhou Cheng was dominant in the north. If he wanted to prevent the Zhou thieves from going south, he must unite with the southern princes.
As a result, Sun Ce was unlucky and started frequent wars, consuming the strength of the southern princes.
For such irrational princes, Huang Rui felt that there was no need to rely on him.
However, Huang Rui didn't intend to break up, so he said to Lu Su:"I know that Wu Hou is in trouble, and I am willing to share the worries for Wu Hou. I have prepared two thousand dan of food to supply the army."
Two thousand dan is actually not too little.
However, the Huang family in Ping'a is the largest landowner in Ping'a.
Lu Su visited various counties this time, with the goal of 100,000 shi of grain.
Although what I have gained so far is not good, I have only collected more than 10,000 stones.
But Lu Su was not in a hurry.
Lu Su came from a wealthy family and knew what the wealthy families thought.
The wealthy families always put the interests of the clan first.
As for the war between princes? As long as it doesn't harm their own interests, they can accept it.
Lu Su smiled and thanked Huang Rui for his kindness.
Two thousand stones were accepted.
This made Huang Rui a little surprised. He thought Lu Su would not let him go so easily, but he didn't expect Lu Su to accept it as soon as he saw it.
No, something's wrong.
This is too easy to dismiss.
Not to mention Sun Ce, it was not easy for Huang Rui to get rid of Yuan Shu in the past.
What's more, what about Sun Ce, who is known for his bravery and dominance?
Moreover, everyone knows that Sun Ce is short of food.
It is absolutely impossible to let go of Huang's food easily.
There must be a conspiracy.
Huang Rui's deep eyes stared at Lu Su's back.
After Lu Su left Huang's village, he left without looking back.
The accompanying scribe asked:"Zijing, why are you walking so fast? Are you still afraid of the Huang family?"
Facing the armed forces of Soochow, the Huang family was strong, but they were unable to resist it.
As long as Sun Ce mobilizes three thousand elite soldiers, trebuchets, and ladders, Huang's mountain city can be breached.
Lu Su said:"Let him train us and deliver the food in person."_
