Rebirth God of War Lu Bu
Chapter 1454: War Emergency (Part 1)
The current situation in Jizhou makes the family feel deeply uneasy. If you go against Lu Bu, without that strength, what can you do if someone in the family is an official? The military power is only held in the hands of Lu Bu, and the result of the rebellion will only be the disintegration of the family , the family members become a member of the construction team.
Jizhou and Qingzhou have gradually stabilized after successive turmoil, but Xiangyang is in dire straits.
Cao Jun attacked the city for a month and attacked the city wall several times. If it weren't for Guan Yu's bravery, the city might have fallen, and the price Cao Jun paid during the siege was also heavy. It reached 15,000 people.
Guan Yu's heart was a little heavy. He could feel that Cao Jun's strength was gradually improving. Comparatively speaking, although the defenders were also improving, they were much worse than Cao Jun. The madness Cao Jun showed during the battle made him People were shocked, especially the Qingzhou Army among Cao's troops.
Xiangyang was besieged, but reinforcements from other counties and counties could not arrive. Even the navy suffered heavy losses from the heavy cavalry, and Su Fei, the general of the navy, was even captured alive by Cao Jun.
This situation made Zhuge Liang dare not easily mobilize the navy again. If he wanted reinforcements to enter the city, the most important thing was to deal with the heavy cavalry wandering on the battlefield. I understand that I can only let the enemy army rampant on the battlefield. Although there are cavalry in the defenders, the quality of these cavalry is compared with Cao Jun's cavalry. Compared with Cao Jun's cavalry, the combat effectiveness is too weak. The speed is much worse than that of Cao Jun.
The Qingzhou army, tiger and leopard cavalry, heavy cavalry, and heavy infantry in the Cao army can all cause huge shocks on the battlefield. The lack of elite soldiers makes the Jingzhou army passively defend. In this way, Xiangyang The war has reached the point of emergency.
The first thing that bears the brunt is the rise in the price of rice and grain, and the money in the hands of the people depreciates at an extremely fast rate. In order to survive, the fields and houses of the family are gradually in the hands of the aristocratic family, and many people even sell their children.
This is only one month of Cao Jun's siege of the city. If the aristocratic family lasts longer, there will inevitably be greater turmoil in the city.
The most troublesome thing for Zhuge Liang is the price of rice in the city. If the price of rice cannot be controlled, it will cause unrest among the people, which will be extremely unfavorable to the defenders. The people in ordinary times are gentle in the eyes of the ruler. However, if their lives were in danger, they would stand up and resist without hesitation. The Yellow Turban Rebellion that year was a good proof, and Zhuge Liang didn't dare to gamble.
In contrast, although the aristocratic families in the city were worried about the safety of the city, it did not affect their growth in strength. In their eyes, they were more concerned about the family.
After Zhuge Liang walked around the city wall, he returned to the Hussar General's Mansion and fell into deep thought. The most important thing at present is not to stop Cao Jun, but how to stabilize Xiangyang and let the aristocratic family help defend the city against Cao Jun.
At this time, Zhuge Liang thought of Lu Bu. Everyone knows how Lu Bu treats the family. The family's impression of Lu Bu is cruel. There was no large-scale rebellion in the family under his rule, which proved that Lu Bu's method was feasible.
"Handling, all the patriarchs of the aristocratic families will go to the General's Mansion to discuss matters tonight." Zhuge Liang said.
After the family received Zhuge Liang's order, they had a bad feeling. The last time Zhuge Liang discussed matters, the number of private soldiers in the hands of the family decreased by 30%, and the food and grass contributed a lot. The main reason was that after Zhuge Liang took control of the Kuai family, the family had no choice. If you don’t obey, as for the Kuai family rebelling against Jingzhou and taking refuge in Cao Cao, more aristocratic families are skeptical. The contributions Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue have made to Jingzhou over the years are obvious to all. If the Kuai family betrayed, they would not have supported it back then Liu Qi became emperor.
But they can only keep these words in their hearts, and now in Xiangyang City, Zhuge Liang is in charge.
Originally for Zhuge Liang,
Family members look down on them, Zhuge Liang is too young after all, but Zhuge Liang's method is to shock the middle-aged people, the same matter is put in their hands, and Zhuge Liang may not be as experienced in handling the same matter.
Looking at Zhuge Liang, who was in the first place, many families even had bad premonitions.
Zhuge Liang coughed lightly, turned his gaze to Guan Yu and said, "General Guan, Cao's army is attacking the city fiercely now, tell me about the situation of the defenders."
"Originally there were 20,000 defenders in the city, plus 1,000 private soldiers from the aristocratic family, a total of 21,000 people. When Cao Jun attacked the city for one month, 3,000 defenders died, 2,000 were seriously injured, and 16,000 soldiers were ready to fight. Thousands." Guan Yu said, "Cao Jun's losses are around 15,000."
The loss of the defending side and the attacking side was about one to three, which made the head of the aristocratic family feel terrified. If this situation continues, it will be a matter of time before Xiangyang City is captured by Cao Jun.
The defenders were at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers. As for relying on righteousness to make Cao Cao retreat in the face of difficulties, it was obviously impossible. Since Cao Cao used so many troops to attack Xiangyang, the two sides would never stop dying.
This is also where Zhuge Liang felt the most troublesome. If Cao Jun's attack on Jingzhou slowed down for a year, Jingzhou would have enough confidence to stop Cao Jun. However, at this time, Liu Bei had just captured Yizhou and Jingzhou was weak. Who would have thought , Cao Jun, who originally supported Liu Bei's capture of Yizhou, will attack Jingzhou instead.
"Cao's army is attacking the city fiercely now. If Cao's army is allowed to break through Xiangyang, everyone here will not be spared. Even at such an urgent moment, there are still many aristocratic families who secretly raised the price of rice in the city, which made the people panic. From now on , Restoring the price of rice in the city, if the General’s Mansion finds out which family has raised the price of rice, I have absolutely no reason to be soft-hearted, and I hope that you can work together to resist Cao’s bandits when Jingzhou is in danger.” Zhuge Liang said.
The patriarchs of the aristocratic family all said yes, but as for their real thoughts, it is unknown. Will the aristocratic family be willing to give up the benefits they have obtained and help the defenders instead? How will the aristocratic family's temperament make them choose.
"Xianhe is responsible for investigating the price of rice and grain, but if there is any discovery, there is no need to report it to the general's mansion, and it will be eradicated directly." Zhuge Liang said.
"Here." Jian Yong clasped his hands.
For the power of Jian Yong, the aristocratic families in the city have already experienced it. That is the disaster star of the aristocratic family. As long as the aristocratic family is targeted by Jian Yong, even if they are lucky enough to survive, they will lose their skin. Many aristocratic families have secretly sent assassins He was about to kill Jian Yong, but Jian Yong was extremely cunning, which made the family helpless.
