Chapter 1779 The Unlucky Soochow

Chapter 1777: Unlucky Soochow

Most of Soochow's troops were competing with Liu Xiu for Jiangxia County, while the remaining troops were busy encircling and suppressing the Japanese pirates, and were unable to win for a long time. This also made the country's mountains more rebellious.

Yangzhou Shanyue, like Jiaozhou Baiyue and Jingnan Wulingman, are all ethnic minorities entrenched in the territory of the Han Dynasty.

The difference is that the Wuling barbarians have been conquered by Liu Xiu, and Baiyue has surrendered to Liu Xiu's military power and dare not cause rebellion. However, the problem of Shanyue has not been eradicated by Soochow, and it has always been the most troublesome problem for Soochow.

Since Sun Jian occupied Jiangdong, he has sent troops to attack Shanyue several times, and he has won a complete victory every time. The strength of Shanyue has been greatly weakened, but the remaining Shanyue is entrenched in the deep mountains and old forests. If he does not take the initiative to come out, It can't be completely wiped out.

Seeing that Shanyue was already frightened by him and did not dare to come out to cause trouble, Sun Jian temporarily gave up the idea of ​​completely wiping out Shanyue and instead curbed the growth of his neighbor Liu Xiu.

What Sun Jian didn't know was that Shan Yue was not frightened by him, but was just hiding to regain his strength.

 Shanyue people generally hold grudges very much, and during Sun Jian's crusade against Shanyue, countless Shanyue people died at the hands of Soochow, and the two sides had already formed a deadly feud.

Therefore, taking advantage of the internal and external difficulties in Soochow, various tribes in Shanyue rose up in rebellion.

Yuzhang Shanyue leader Zulang, Danyang Shanyue leader Fei Zhan, Poyang Shanyue leader Peng Hu, Lujiang Shanyue leader Chen Ce, Kuaiji Shanyue leader Huang Luan, Yongan Shanyue leader Shi Dan, Qiantang Shanyue leader Peng Shi, Linchuan Shanyue leader Dong Si ...and all the tribes in Shanyue on the 13th and 13th routes rose up in rebellion. For a time, all parts of Jiangdong were on fire.

The total population of Shanyue is hundreds of thousands, and among these Shanyue rebels, the most powerful one is Yuzhang Zulang, who has 100,000 people and 20,000 soldiers.

 The remaining Shanyue rebels numbered nearly 10,000 and several thousand.

 The rebellion was launched together, and the momentum was extremely huge, which had shaken the foundation of Soochow.

Sun Jian, who was far away in Jiangxia, saw that the Japanese pirates had not yet been wiped out and the victims had not yet settled down, but Shanyue launched a rebellion again, and the scale was so large that the good state of Wu was completely turned into a sieve, with loopholes everywhere, and he was naturally furious about this. Incessantly.

Sun Jian never thought that Shan Yue, whom he regarded as vulnerable, would give him a fatal blow at this time, and he secretly regretted why he left this hidden danger.

Even though Shanyue is having a good time in the territory of Wu State, as long as the main army of Soochow returns, it will only be a matter of time to deal with these Shanyue who are not even equipped with weapons.

But once Soochow withdraws from Jiangxia, Huang Zu alone will never be able to stop Liu Xiu, which is equivalent to giving up Jiangxia to Liu Xiu. By then, Chu will have an absolute geographical advantage over Wu. .

The battle between Jiangxia and Wu is related to the national destiny of Wu and Chu. Whoever can seize Jiangxia first will have an absolute advantage, so Sun Jian will support Huang Zu at all costs.

But for Soochow now, the most important thing is not to fight for Jiangxia, but to quickly extinguish the domestic rebellion. Otherwise, even if Jiangxia is obtained, if Jiangdong is occupied by the rebels, the gains will outweigh the losses.

“My lord, the most urgent task now is to suppress the Shanyue rebellion, so we should withdraw our troops as soon as possible.” Zhang Zhao added.

Although Sun Jian also wanted to withdraw his troops and go back to suppress the rebellion, after all, Jiangxia was related to the battle for the fate of the country and it was too important, so he couldn't help but hesitate.

After thinking for a long time, Sun Jian couldn't make a decision, so he looked at Sun Wu and asked: "Brother Wu, what do you think?"

Sun Wu smiled bitterly and said: "Withdraw your troops. Now even Jiangdong is no longer stable. We must first expel the Japanese pirates and suppress Shanyue, and then consider other things." Hearing Sun Wu's words, Sun Jian sighed helplessly and cursed angrily: "Damn Shanyue, and **** Japanese pirates, I will never let them go."

 The implication is that he agrees with the withdrawal of troops to suppress the rebellion.

This time he competed with Liu Xiu for Jiangxia. Sun Jian came with the determination to win. However, he did not expect to lose to Liu Xiu on the battlefield. However, due to the attack of Japanese pirates and the domestic Shanyue rebellion, he lost to Liu Xiu inexplicably. show.

This defeat is equivalent to losing Jiangxia. Even if Wu State quells the domestic rebellion, Wu State's situation may not be very good in the future confrontation with Chu State.

At this thought, Sun Jian couldn't help but envy Liu Xiu's luck. He had inexplicably won a national war even though he had done nothing.

No one has this kind of luck.

 “Alas, God will help Chu but not Wu.”

Sun Jian couldn't help but sigh, his heart filled with unwillingness and helplessness.

The news that Sun Jian was about to withdraw his troops and return to suppress the rebellion was like a bolt from the blue to Huang Zu.

Huang Zu, Huang Xie and his son came to lobby one after another, but no matter what they said, Sun Jian only asked: "If Jiangxia also faces such a situation, will you and your son ignore the rebellion in the country and fully help our country, Wu?"

This sentence alone left Huang Zu, Huang Xie and his son speechless. If they were in Sun Jian's situation, they would definitely make the same decision as Sun Jian.

Regarding the domestic situation of Wu State, Huang Zu, Huang Xie and his son also knew that Wu State was on the verge of subjugation, and it was obviously impossible to stay to help Jiangxia resist Chu State.

But without the assistance of Soochow, how could the Jiangxia army alone be able to stop the Chu army?

As all the 100,000 Dongwu troops evacuated Jiangxia, Huang Zu, the governor of Jiangxia, fell ill directly due to helplessness and despair. His eldest son Huang Xie was ordered to take charge of everything in the Jiangxia army, but he could not escape the fate of exile.

After the Wu army withdrew from Jiangxia, it was divided into two. One group of 70,000 troops was under the command of Sun Jian and went to suppress the Shanyue rebellion in various places. The other group of 30,000 navy troops was under the command of Sun Wu and went straight down the Yangtze River to the sea, bypassing the Wu army and Kuaiji County. , responsible for wiping out the Japanese pirates raging in He County.

Jiangxia seemed to be a bad luck place for Soochow, but as soon as they left Jiangxia, Soochow's luck immediately improved.

On the eighth day after the Wu army withdrew from Jiangxia, Sun Ce defeated the Shanyue rebels in Kuaiji and personally killed their leader Huang Luan. Kuaiji Shanyue was quickly pacified.

On the ninth day, Sun Wu, who went east to exterminate the Japanese pirates, raided Danyang Shanyue and killed its leader Fei Zhan when passing through Danyang territory. Danyang Shanyue was quickly pacified.

On the 13th day, Sun Jian defeated Yuzhang Shanyue for the first time, killing more than 5,000 enemies and returning. Later, he defeated Zulang several times, and finally convinced him to surrender to the Wu army.

Once Zulang surrendered, the largest Shanyue rebellion in Soochow was put down, and the turmoil in the country became relatively stable, not as critical as before.
