On this day, news of the great victory in the south spread back to Jianye.

The troubles over the mountainous terrain have been alleviated.

What is Shanyue?

There are many Baiyue people in Jiangdong, such as Yan Baihu, the prefect of Wu County. In Wu County, there is another county to the south of Kuaiji called Jian'an, which is basically the territory of the Baiyue people.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, taxes were heavy and Zhang Jiao called himself the "Great Master" and started the Yellow Turban Uprising. The Baiyue people also took the opportunity to rebel. However, unlike the Yellow Turban Army who became bandits after losing Zhang Jiao, the Baiyue people also

That's how it was done from the beginning.

The Baiyue people did not have a common leader, and multiple tribal leaders each occupied the mountain and became kings. In addition to conquering each other, they also went to Wu County and Kuaiji in the north to burn, kill and loot. Later, they even openly accepted bandits and robbers.

The Yellow Turban bandits came to expand their own strength. Even Yan Baihu of the same clan was furious and felt deeply ashamed, calling them "Baiyue people like bandits".

Later, this idea spread for some reason, and the people in Jiangdong classified them as a foreign race and called them "Shanyue".

Four months ago, Pan Lin, Peng Qi, Peng Shi, Zu Lang, Jin Qi, Mao Gan, Huang Luan and many other Shanyue leaders formed an alliance and formed an army of 100,000 Shanyue troops to march into Kuaiji County to plunder food and money.

On the Chu side, General Gan Ning, following Sun Ce's orders, led generals Cheng Pu, Zhu Zhi, and Huang Gai to attack with 50,000 elite troops.

After a month of fierce fighting, Shan Yue's army retreated. However, the victorious Gan Ning was not satisfied with this. He divided his troops into two places and advanced on land and water to attack Jian'an.

After another three months of bloody fighting, Jian'an, which had been out of Han control for many years, finally returned to the rule of Chu.

The people in Jianye were very excited, but even more proud. In contrast, Wujun and Kuaiji turned into a sea of ​​joy.

"I heard that the battleships modified by the Mohists and Gongshujia played a great role this time. In water battles, they were much more powerful than the warships and building ships. The Shanyue Navy was defeated in one battle, and the coastline was completely controlled by us. It is convenient

Xingba’s tactical cutting and rear harassment.”

Zhang Zhao put down the military newspaper in his hand with some emotion.

Everyone was convinced of Shanyue's defeat, but no one expected that Gan Ning would resolutely lead the army to pursue Jian'an without asking Sun Ce for instructions. You must know that this is Shanyue's home base, and it is different from fighting in Kuaiji.

Eryu. But under such circumstances, Gan Ning wiped out Shanyue and regained Jian'an County in just three months.

Ji Shu was also surprised. He and Zhou Yu's original plan was to wait until Chu State became stronger to raise an army of 100,000 to recapture Jian'an County in one fell swoop, completely clearing the hidden dangers behind Chu State, and then start to conquer Shu State.

"When the country is weak, thieves and bandits run rampant everywhere; when the country is strong, thieves and bandits have nothing to do with it. Unexpectedly, Xingba allowed our plan to be completed two years ahead of schedule."

Ji Shu excitedly took the military report from Zhang Zhao and looked at it carefully.

Zhang Zhao also understood what this meant, he looked at Ji Shu with great interest and said.

"Many talents also emerged in this battle, such as Ling Tong, Lu Meng, and Zhu Ran, who all shined. Xingba was very quick, and he immediately promoted Lu Meng and Zhu Ran to the rank of commander-in-chief and included them in his brocade.

Fan Jun, I think he is ready for the next battle."

"I heard that Cao Cao and Liu Bei have been having constant friction recently, and Cao Cao is preparing to send troops to attack Xuzhou. While the two tigers are fighting each other, wouldn't it be nice for us to quickly swallow up this fat piece of Shu?"

Hearing what Zhang Zhao said, Ji Shu suddenly felt that time was running out, and he frowned slightly.

Indeed, if Cao Cao and Liu Bei really fight, it will be a God-given opportunity. The Chu State, which has solved the hidden dangers of Shanyue, can put most of its troops into the Yizhou battlefield. Once Yizhou is captured, the Chu State will immediately replace Wei and become the number one in the world.

princes.

Ji Shu felt that he needed to reorganize the surrounding intelligence with Zhou Yu and choose the most appropriate time to conquer Shu.

"Hey, Dong Zhuo's envoy is arriving soon. Should we prepare?"

"This matter is too troublesome. There are a lot of etiquette and other things to arrange. Let's leave it to the second brother and Zigang."

"Hmm~~"

Zhang Zhao raised his eyebrows, then pointed at Ji Shu with a wicked smile.

It turns out you thought so too!

The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

After having some fun, the two of them continued to deal with other reports. Zhang Zhao suddenly shouted in a weird voice.

"In the Drunken Dream Tower, a general from the Chu State was surprised to find himself jealous of the famous prostitute Xing'er, and they started fighting!"

Ji Shu was stunned for a while. Is it necessary to report to them for such a romantic and foolish affair?

Could it be that the news has spread among the people and has had a bad impact?

"No one knows the general's grave, and the actor's family affairs are known to the world. That's all, let's punish him and treat it as a way to rectify the atmosphere. Zi Bu, who is involved in this?"

Seeing Ji Shu moaning feebly, Zhang Zhao smiled and handed him the report.

"Haha, you can see for yourself."

Zhang Zhao's mysterious behavior only made Ji Shu's ominous premonition deepen. He took the report and read it at a glance. The further he looked down, the darker his face became.

A name that impressed Ji Shu was mentioned here, Pan Zhang. Unexpectedly, he dared to use his power to rob civilian girls in broad daylight in full view of the public. The Chu army is known for its strict military discipline and kindness to the people. This Pan Zhang is simply beating Sun Ce.

face.

It was enough to punish Pan Zhang. Although this man was brave and brave, he was greedy for money and lust and was of no use. What annoyed Ji Shuzhu was that Zhou Tai, as a general of Chu State, was involved.

"This guy Youping! Even if he is visiting a brothel, he actually makes such a big fuss. Are you afraid that others won't know about it? I'll talk about him after the meeting tomorrow, otherwise he will be impeached by Zigang sooner or later."

······

"Military advisor, actually I am performing a secret mission!"

When Ji Shu went to talk to Zhou Tai, he explained to Ji Shu this way.

Ji Shu stared at Zhou Tai with wide eyes, almost doubting his own ears.

"Are you sure you're on a 'secret' mission?"

The word "secret" was bitten very hard by Ji Shu, and Zhou Tai fell into a brief silence. Seeing no one around him, he pulled Ji Shu into a corner and spoke in detail.

"Actually, that's what happened. The Second Military Advisor saw me visiting brothels often, no, occasionally..."

"You still don't admit it! You just wanted to say 'you often visit brothels', didn't you?"

Ji Shu grabbed Zhou Tai's little tail, pointed at Zhou Tai's nose and asked.

"No, I didn't! I'm not!"

"Oh, strategist, please don't interrupt. I'm very annoying to you!"

Of course Zhou Tai would not admit it, so he quickly changed his words and changed the subject.

"Speaking of which, the Second Military Advisor saw that I occasionally visit brothels, just occasionally! He asked me to go to Zuimenglou to explore this girl Xing'er."

Ji Shu looked suspicious.

"You're talking nonsense. Why did my second brother ask you to test it? He doesn't have the guts to visit a brothel now."

You said it as if you had the courage to do it. Zhou Tai coughed lightly and said solemnly.

"Of course the Second Military Advisor didn't ask me to investigate for his own sake, but he received news that this girl Xing'er is probably a member of the 'Onizuka', lurking in Chu State to win over officials and collect intelligence."

Onizuka!

How long has it been since I heard this name?

Ji Shu's expression suddenly became serious. Zhou Tai might have just treated it as an ordinary task, but Ji Shu knew that Zhou Yu must have put all his energy into this matter.

"Then what results have you found so far?"

Zhou Tai groaned and hesitated for a while.

Just when Ji Shu thought Zhou Yu asked him to keep it secret and was about to stop asking, he spoke.

"That's eight out of ten. Miss Xing'er is extremely talented and beautiful. She is obviously the number one in Zuimenglou, but she is extremely low-key. When things happen, she deliberately minimizes the impact. In addition to dealing with the children of various aristocratic families, I also

I found that she also looked at the declining Cai family in a different light."

Cai family? Are they going to join forces with Cai Mao?

Although Ji Shu was shocked, the Chu State today was no longer the Jiangdong it was back then. He didn't believe how much trouble these aristocratic families could make.

"In that case, you should report it to your second brother, and I won't care about this matter."

Ji Shu originally said this, but Zhou Tai's eyes suddenly wandered and he did not dare to look at him.

Thinking of Zhou Tai fighting for Miss Xing'er, Ji Shu couldn't help but doubt.

"You haven't reported to your second brother yet, have you?"

"Well, there's no need to worry about this. I'll investigate it clearly and report it to the Second Army Division when I'm sure."

Damn it, this guy is really attracted to that woman.

"I want to die! Fortunately, you told me the truth. Do you think Gongjin will arrange for you to be the only one? If he learns about things through other channels, your loyalty will be doubted by him."

"Although Gong Jin is usually gentle and generous, if he has anything to do with something detrimental to Bo Fu, he will be more ruthless than anyone else!"

Zhou Tai swallowed his saliva, but did not flinch.

"Is it so scary? Why don't I report it later? I have to wait until I find out the matter. Maybe I can convince Xing'er to join us and provide us with information about 'Onizuka'!"

The second half of the sentence is probably the reason why you delayed reporting to Zhou Yu.

How is that possible?

Ji Shu now seriously suspected that Zhou Tai had a fever and was going crazy. He was about to continue persuading him, but was interrupted by Zhou Tai.

"Forget it, military advisor, don't worry about this. I will take care of it."

After saying that, Zhou Tai ignored Ji Shu, turned around and left quickly.

"Hey, Youping! Youping!"
Chapter completed!
