Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 619

Sun Quan sat upright and pulled the pleated robe, and asked in a low voice: "Don't worry about Jiang Xia's cavalry, our Jiangdong is good at sailors, I just want to know how many sailors Jiang Xia has."

"Eh Faxiao treated me enthusiastically, but he wouldn't trust the truth about the military situation. However, Li Yi led the fleet to report on the way, and there are many warships at Jiangxia Wharf. There should be a large number of navy troops." Zhuge Jin replied. .

"Is Li Yi the general in charge of the Jiaozhou Navy?"

"It should be him."

Sun Quan guessed, "Jiaozhou's navy is only a few thousand dollars, and Lantian sent them all to Jiangxia. It should be to prevent us from making a comeback?"

"Uh, I really don't know about the humble job, but Lantian is full of tricks, and our previous intelligence may not be true." Zhuge Jin analyzed.

Sun Quan gasped, Zhuge Jin's unintentional words made him feel scared, maybe he had received wrong information, which made Lan Tian suffer, so he sighed: "Ziyu's words are very true, but even Neither Fazheng nor Xu Shu can be the masters, and I don’t know when and when the prisoners will be returned.”

"Maybe we have to wait until the Xiangfan battle is over." Zhuge Jin smiled helplessly.

Sun Quan waved his hand gently, signaling Zhuge Jin to leave: "Ziyu has worked hard all the way, let's go back and rest first."

"Wei." Zhuge Jin got up and saluted. When he stepped back, he accidentally stepped on the wine glass thrown by Sun Quan, and almost staggered and fell. Finally, he bent over to pick up the glass and gently placed it on the table next to him.

"The matter has come to this point, we can only deal with it well, and don't get too angry." Zhuge Jin bowed again.

"Hey, it's not Luling's troubles." Sun Quan sighed.

Zhuge Jin was about to leave, but when he heard this, he stood there again, "Isn't the Bandit King Jin wiped out yet? General Ding, he can't do it, right?"

"Hmph, Ding Feng's qualifications are still not close, and he was tricked by Wang Jin in Nanye. Although those bandits returned to Guiyang, Yu Zhongxiang's whole family was taken hostage, and he asked for a ransom of 5000 million yuan, otherwise he would tear up his ticket , These real bandits are more ruthless than the black owl." After finishing speaking, Sun Quan handed Lu Dai's letter to Zhuge Jin.

The letter said that after Ding Feng left Gan County, he chased Wang Jin to Tailing Mountain in the upper reaches of the Yuzhang River and besieged him. Yu Fan followed him and brought his family to Nanye County.Tailing Mountain has dense vegetation and many snakes, insects, rats and ants. Ding Feng was worried about ambush and did not dare to enter the mountain to encircle and suppress. On this day, the county magistrate Yu Fan and his family of more than ten people were all taken away.

Ding Feng was shocked when he heard the news and led his army back to rescue Nanye. As a result, the bandits behind them looted Ganxian and Yudu counties in the opposite direction. Fighting back and forth in Ganshui, Ding Feng was exhausted in the rear, and the bandit leader Wang Jin led his troops to attack and harass, and staged a scene of praying mantis catching cicadas and orioles. Yu Fan and his family.

Shuangfa pulled and moved to fight for more than ten days. The two bandits joined forces and fled to Guiyang County along the Yuzhang River. Ding Feng chased into Guiyang County because of anger. The young general who painted the halberd was unable to win in twenty rounds, and finally retreated to the territory of Luling because the opponent increased his troops.Later, Wang Jin sent people to sneak into Nanye secretly, and Archery Shu went to Ding Feng's camp to demand ransom.

Zhuge Jin was stunned after reading the letter, and thought this is still Ding Feng in my memory?Although he came from a poor family but has rich combat experience, he shouldn't be teased like this, right?

In fact, among the thousands of bandits that Wang Jin took to Luling, he was the only leader who was a real bandit. The veterans of the Tiejiao Martial Arts Hall, and the veterans of the reconnaissance battalion around Song Chen.

Lv Dai withdrew the army pretending to be Shanyue from Longchuan, Sha Moke secretly dispatched half of the barbarians to Guiyang according to Lanyuan's previous instructions, and finally encountered Ding Feng in Qujiang.

Before his departure, Lan Tian only asked Lan Yuan to ensure the stability of Jiaozhou, and did not give him an order to attack Luling, so he took the spoils of war (Yu Fan) and returned to Guangzhou when he saw a good deal. When Lan Yuan communicated with Zhao Shuang at the Guangzhou Academy , I probably know Jiangdong's knowledgeable Junjie, when he heard that Yu Fan was actually in Nanye County, so he staged the scene of kidnapping by bandits, which belongs to beating rabbits.

"This doesn't look like the work of bandits, and with General Ding's martial arts, how could he be stopped by an unknown young general? When did Guiyang come out with such a character?" Zhuge Jin asked puzzled.

Sun Quan shook his head, "Hmph, God knows that when he tried his best to find out about the generals around Lantian, who would have thought that there would be another young general in Guiyang? As for the bandit's authenticity, we don't know. They are so powerful that they are no match for Xi Zhen's." Bing, I don’t know what to say.”

Zhuge Jin sympathized with Ding Feng's experience, he made many military exploits but his promotion was very slow due to his poor background, and this time he had a bad nose in Luling, he was afraid that he would have to endure many years if he wanted to be promoted to general.

The army that attacked Jingzhou from four directions, Lu Xun's troops suffered the least damage and retreated to Chaisang, Jiang Qin's troops suffered the most damage and were almost wiped out. It is not in their interest to redeem people for general Huaisi.

Sun Quan repeatedly sent people to negotiate during this period, and he finally chose to make some concessions. First, he agreed to distribute some of the redeemed trilogy to the gentry generals, and secondly, he was willing to promote a group of gentry generals, so that the Jiangdong gentry had the right to speak in the military officer group.

In mid-December, Sun Quan received a letter from Cao Cao, who was invited to attack Jiangxia in response to the Battle of Xiangfan, and asked him about Lantian in detail.

While Sun Quan poured bitter water on Cao Cao, he used Zhou Tai as his general to gather [-] sailors and advance to E County, intending to take advantage of the fire and loot to put pressure on Jingzhou to demand the return of the prisoners.

On the twelfth day of the first lunar month in the 25th year of Jian'an, Lantian's fleet arrived at the agreed Jiangxin Island, which is the middle of Jiangxia and E County, and the location where the Yangtze River turns south (near Tuanfeng County, Huanggang City today)

Sun Quan had been waiting for this negotiation for a long time. He pointed to the people on the big boat to the north, turned around and said to Zhuge Jin, "It turns out that the ruffian in the market has turned into a state shepherd. Ziyu, please talk to him for me first. If not, I will show up again."

"Wei." Zhuge Jin bowed to answer.

The two parties docked and disembarked according to the agreement, each brought ten guards ashore, and chose a flat place to discuss.

Zhou Tai followed Zhuge Jin, and Gan Ning followed Lan Tian. The two looked at each other as soon as they met, with sharp and fierce lights as if they were going to eat each other.

"General Lan, be polite." Zhuge Jin bowed his hands and bowed. Because he and Lan Tian had different official positions and represented the side of the sufferer, he took the lead in lowering his figure.

Lan Tian raised his hand in return: "Mr. Ziyu is polite, are you talking to me today?"

"My lord caught wind and cold by accident, and now we are resting on the big ship, shall we try to talk first?" Zhuge Jin asked.

"Of course it's no problem. It's business anyway, just negotiate the price." Lan Tian smiled slightly.

"Uh, the general's asking price is too high, can you reduce it as appropriate? Jiangdong has been harassed by the mountains all year round, and disasters occur frequently in Yangzhou, so there is not much money left in the treasury."

"It's not that I asked for a high price. Life is priceless. If General Sun hadn't betrayed the alliance, how could the situation be like this now? Besides, we want some compensation, mainly for the soldiers who died in battle. Mr. Ziyu thought it was too expensive when he opened his mouth. Today's negotiation is over." "

Before Zhugejin finished complaining, he was beaten by Lantian's three axe. He quickly waved his hand and said, "It's not that it's too expensive, it's not that it's too expensive. Can the general look at Kong Ming's face and make some concessions so that I can be in the same place as you?" Where is the lord on business"
