Chapter 90 Violent Suppression, Arrangement
Lu Wu looked at Jiang Xingde's tearful face, not feeling the slightest bit moved in his heart.
What the old man said was very clear, but his move just now was done with great ingenuity, and he was definitely not prepared to show mercy. What's more, the two parties were right in front of him, and with Lu Wu's cultivation, he could clearly sense even insects walking around.
This old man has cultivated his inner family's true energy to the point where heaven and man are one, and his body is filled with true energy. Lu Wu cannot sense the subtleties in his body, but not everyone around the old man has such a level of cultivation.
——These people were all astonished. It was obvious that the old man just had a temporary idea, and it was more likely that he was adapting to the changing circumstances.
However, Lu Wu did not mention this issue, because even if he brought it up, the old man would definitely have an explanation. Lu Wu could even think of how he would explain it - the anti-Chuzi matter is a big one, and he must be tested to see what he can do.
Can't take the lead.
"The incident happened suddenly. Old General, don't blame me for not trusting you for the time being. However, since the Jiang family is a noble here, I also have use for you. Just stay with me. If things happen again, I will kill you first." Lu Wu
He said it calmly, and even talked about treating him as a hostage, just like eating and drinking water as a matter of course.
Jiang Xingde's face was of course calm, but he was really angry in his heart.
Even if you don't consider the old man's high position and power and bring troops to surrender, you should still consider his age and give him some face.
To put it bluntly, you are just a young boy. Even if you are invincible in terms of force, do you really think that you can control the entire Nanhe Prefecture single-handedly?
Nanhe Prefecture has twenty-three counties, and together with the Prefectural City, there are twenty-four cities. In addition to the Prefectural City, each city has a garrison of at least five hundred troops, and as many as thousands of troops. In addition, there are six officials and hundreds of nobles.
, how can it be suppressed by one person’s force alone?
Such an important person like me came to my door on my own initiative, and even took the people of Chu State as a vote of trust. My attitude is not insincere. If you don't call me 'uncle' and get a cheap relative, you should at least treat him with courtesy——
You have to do something about the horse bones in Qianjin City, right?
This person is so rude. Could it be that he thinks that the Jiang family and Jiang Xingde are really easy to bully?
"Huh?" Lu Wu glanced coldly.
Jiang Xingde nodded in agreement, raised his hand to gently wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and when he let go, his face was already full of a happy smile: "General Lu is so brave, but he still acts with caution. He will be a famous general in the world in the future, and he will see the talents of our motherland emerge in large numbers.
, I really can die in peace!"
"Old General Jiang is really well-mannered." Lu Wu nodded and praised.
"Praise, praise." Jiang Xingde only regarded it as a compliment to himself.
"General Jiang, the general of Zhennan, has rebelled? Is it true or not? This matter is of great importance and must not be based on mere rumors!" Wang Cheng, the magistrate of Manyun County, asked hurriedly.
"It's absolutely true - General Zhennan also beheaded Mr. Fu Chenglu and Mr. Ye, the judge, on the spot!" County Lieutenant Ma Lin nodded and said.
He got the news so quickly, of course, not because he sent people to keep an eye on the city, but because someone from the Jiang family sent the news - the Ma family is just a noble family, but they are related to the Jiang family by marriage, but they are said to be vassals of the Jiang family.
.
"Then let's rebel too!" Wang Chengyi gritted his teeth and said.
Now that Lu and Ye have been killed, there is no room for change. However, the county captain Ma Lin's eyes widened. He unconsciously placed his hand on the handle of the knife and opened and closed it slightly. He might not be able to say half of it.
Without saying a word, he could pull out the knife.
Then do the opposite, since the Wang family can hardly stand it anymore.
The Wang family is also one of the six great officials of Nanhe Prefecture. The Jiang family has suffered a lot of oppression. The Jiang family still has Jiang Xingde with military power, but the Wang family has even lost its business of forging weapons. Now, in addition to the family property,
, I had no choice but to sell salted fish and aquatic products as my main business, which was really embarrassing.
"That's right!" Marin was overjoyed.
Jiang Xingde's reaction at the moment of battle really saved Lu Wu a lot of energy.
Although the Jiang family has been suppressed in Nanhe Prefecture, they still own thousands of fertile lands and tens of thousands of tenant farmers, and many of them are soldiers. Therefore, even if they are suppressed by many parties, Jiang Xingde can still firmly sit in the position of General Zhennan.
.
The Jiang family raised their voices and shouted, and the twenty-three counties immediately rebelled against seven county towns. Even if the remaining sixteen county towns had never followed suit, they were still in panic.
Two days later, Nanhe City, City Lord's Mansion.
Now this place has become the place where Lu Wu stays, and it is natural for everyone to discuss matters here.
"General, now these seven cities, and sixteen county towns are still resisting, how do you think we should deal with them?" Jiang Xingde asked.
A roll of maps was spread out on the large table, and there were five people around the table.
Although this detailed map is only a treasure of Nanhe Prefecture, and at most some villages and counties in the surrounding three prefectures, it is also seven feet long and five feet wide. It cannot be placed on an ordinary table, so it can only be built specifically for display and reading.
Square table with map.
Building a table specifically for reading maps may seem a bit unbelievable in modern times, but in this era, it is a matter of course - the map is extremely important, and even symbolizes the right to rule, and is many times more valuable than a table.
Jiang Xingde placed seven white chess pieces on the seven county seats, and placed the other sixteen black stones on the county seats that had not surrendered.
The black ones and the white ones are not distinct, but there is me in you and you in me. It can be said that they surround each other.
Jiang Xingde was called General Zhennan, but since he nominally surrendered Lu Wu, he naturally put Lu Wu on top of his head, so he called Lu Wu the general. In fact, Lu Wu, the general, was not certified by the King of Wu.
.
He asked Lu Wu about this, but he also had some intention of comparing.
In his opinion, the administrative ability of Lu Wu, let alone the administrative ability, is about zero. Even if he can lead an army to fight, he is a thoroughly brave man. If there is any disharmony in the future, he will know how to deal with it.
Tang Chi nodded and said: "General, this matter should not be underestimated. Mr. Ou is very clever. Even the descendants of the Wu people in Nanhe Prefecture are mostly interested in the Chu Kingdom. If the counties in Nanhe Prefecture cannot be quickly subdued, I am afraid that the surrounding three
As soon as the army of the government moves, there is no need to attack, but it will be surrendered by the wind."
Tang Chi is also one of the six doctors of Nanhe Prefecture. He has a good relationship with the Jiang family of the Tang family, and he also knows that Jiang Xingde has entered the second level of Xiantian, so he is the first to jump out to help Jiang Xingde - but as soon as he goes into battle, Old Man Jiang surrenders neatly, allowing
He was caught off guard.
However, this person was also very quick-thinking and immediately expressed that the Tang family had been suffering for a long time.
Lu Wu glanced at the two of them, stretched out his hand and clicked on the map, and said: "This place must be set up at 3:30 tomorrow morning to prepare for the needs of 500 men and horses for one day."
"This is easy." Jiang Xingde nodded.
Nanhe Prefecture is the largest grain-producing house in Chu State. Although it receives the most grain and grass every year, it still has a lot of grain in stock. Even if it is used by 500,000 people and horses, let alone 500 people and horses, it can still be used.
What's more, the location of Luwu Point is still twenty miles away from Quan County. As long as you are careful, you can ensure safety. In fact, even if it is closer, the Quan County defenders may not dare to go out of the city to attack.
"Here, we need to prepare food and fodder for five hundred people and horses at two quarters at noon tomorrow." Lu Wu ordered again.
"It's not difficult." Jiang Xingde said.
Food and fodder for five hundred people and horses is only a small amount, and a few more will be no problem.
"Here, we need to prepare food and fodder for 500 people and horses at seven o'clock tomorrow." Lu Wu pointed to another point on the map.
Jiang Xingde frowned, not because he couldn't prepare for Lu Wu's request, but because he didn't know what the purpose was.
In fact, Nanhe Prefecture is only two hundred miles from south to north and four hundred miles from east to west. The terrain is similar to lying on a silkworm. It is enough to carry military provisions with the army. There is no need to set up so many supply points.
What's more, these supply points only prepare food and grass for 500 people and horses. What is this small amount of food and grass enough for?
Moreover, these supply points have little food and weak natural defenses - because they are not worth releasing so many people - if they are really attacked, it doesn't take much, as long as there are two teams of 200 people, it will be difficult to resist.
Lu Wu did not explain, but directly ordered eight supply points, and asked Jiang Xingde to prepare 3,000 men and horses, divided into six groups, and be ready for orders at the specified time, otherwise military law would be engaged.
