Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter four hundred and fortieth second

Lin Renzhao rushed out of Jiangning Mansion overnight, and rode south alone to go to the old land of Fujian. To the west is the Zhou army's active area, and to the east is the territory of Wuyue Kingdom. Jinling really has an ambush on all sides... Sure enough, something happened.

The next morning, as soon as he arrived at the east bank of Danyang Lake, he met Zhou Jun's scouts. After chasing for half an hour, they encountered Zhou Jun's cavalry again. The horse was shot to death and the man was arrested.

Lin Renzhao was quickly guessed by the general Zhou Jun because he had a tattoo on his back. So he was tied up by five flowers and taken to the Zhou army camp at Caishi Ferry.

After a lot of tossing and turning, it was dark when we arrived at the place. The young general of the Zhou army next to him said with a northern accent: "You are watching, I will go in and report." A soldier smiled and said: "This guy is tied like a rice dumpling. I am in the camp. It may not be easy to escape."

Lin Renzhao didn't struggle at all, he was already disheartened, if he knew this earlier, why bother to escape from Jinling? Both left and right are dead, and death in the prison of the Southern Tang Dynasty will save you from being humiliated in vain by the enemy. He was originally Guo Shao's defeated general, but being defeated on the battlefield is not enough... He also needs to know that he "absconded in fear of crime", and then come to his door to die!

In addition to being ashamed, he was also a little curious, what was that person like? Although he was an enemy, Lin Renzhao was convinced that he lost, and finally he was not defeated by someone he looked down upon... General Zhou was very flexible in using his troops, and he grasped the timing very accurately.

Lin Renzhao waited outside the door for quite a while, but the young general who went in to report still did not come out. At this moment, a young man with a bun and no hat came out. He seemed to be walking in a hurry. He was dressed as if he had just come out of a bedroom. He didn't even wear boots, and he was wearing a pair of wooden clogs.

"I am Guo Shao." The young man said directly.

Lin Renzhao was taken aback for a moment, he really didn't expect General Zhou to look like this, and he was so young. He didn't feel humiliated either, maybe it's impolite for people to be disheveled when meeting guests, but this scene reminded him of Duke Zhou spitting out the food he ate.

Before he could think about what to say, Guo Shao said again, "This man is not Lin Renzhao, but a fake. I saw him in the Huainan Battle."

Lin Renzhao was misunderstood and just wanted to defend himself, but then he thought what's the use of talking about travel? Then he wondered when he had confronted Guo Shao in the Battle of Huainan...

He didn't even say a word, and then he was taken into the courtyard.

"Hurry up and untie General Lin!" Guo Shao said anxiously as soon as he entered the hall, "I have admired General Lin's name for a long time, and seeing him today is indeed a hero."

Lin Renzhao blurted out, "Why did General Guo say that I was a fake?"

Guo Shaodao: "Although we are in the camp of the Zhou army, there are a lot of people talking outside. I once heard that General Lin is a solid person who values ​​love and righteousness, and he values ​​his family very much. If it spreads too soon that you are captured by the Zhou army, it may be bad for your family."

"This..." Lin Renzhao stared at Guo Shao. For a moment he was really moved, thinking of all the dangers he had encountered in Jinling, the feeling is really different now.

Lin Renzhao was a strong, burly man, very rough, and indeed he didn't have too many flamboyants, but a rough man also has feelings. He immediately answered the wrong question: "I was defeated by General Guo, and now I'm captured. If you want to kill me, you can do whatever you want, but I won't surrender. It's useless to talk!"

Guo Shao just smiled and looked at him without answering. The momentary silence made Lin Renzhao feel as if he had been seen through...Guo Shao left a deep impression on him as soon as he met him. He sized up Guo Shao. At first glance, this person looked ordinary, and his complexion was a little tanned by the sun; but if you pay attention, you will find that this person is very neat... All parts of his body are well-proportioned, his face is tanned copper-colored but smooth, and he is wearing a gray robe, but it is very smooth and clean. There are more details that Lin Renzhao didn't pay attention to, just based on a feeling.

Lin Renzhao thought to himself, Guo Shao's eyes are full of ambition like a hunter's, and the target of the battle is very clear, so he can unswervingly implement the established tactics; he is also a very meticulous person, so he can grasp the timing very accurately and the steps are very clear.

"I care about my family? General Guo also knows this?" Lin Renzhao asked curiously.

Guo Shaodao: "The Southern Tang Kingdom is a big country with thousands of generals, but there are not many people who are really worthy of our efforts. I have known the details of General Lin for a long time, and now the Great Zhou Army still has your files on file."

"I'm a little surprised..." Lin Renzhao frowned and muttered. At this moment, he felt very strange. After being captured, there was no sense of humiliation at all, but I occasionally felt very honorable! There are not many people who can understand fame and fortune, but fame ranks ahead of fortune... It is really hard to be unhappy when suddenly someone you don't know, especially someone in a high position, looks at you differently and shows respect.

... Guo Shaodao: "I didn't persuade General Lin to surrender in a hurry, why don't we get to know each other first?"

Lin Renzhao said, "What is there to get acquainted with in a defeated general?"

Guo Shao smiled and said nothing. From Lin Renzhao's first emphasis on the defeated general, he has already seen that this person is a person who cares about face... Maybe the more he flaunts himself as an upright man, the more he values ​​face.

Lin Renzhao is indeed capable. He is not only brave in battle, but also has a lot of insight and keen judgment in understanding war tactics. He is stubborn and wants to be a Tucheng, and he has a good tactical vision. Of course, if he has no ability, Guo Shao will never put down his body and waste time on him.

But Lin Renzhao may be more difficult to control than Shi Yanchao, and if one day he disobeys the military order, Guo Shao will not be surprised. Li Yu can't use a very difficult martial artist, so using him is counterproductive.

In any case, he has weaknesses, but he also has real abilities; people like Huangfu Jixun have no abilities, and Guo Shao is not interested... Besides, if a capable person without weaknesses, it will also be very stressful to reuse.

"It's getting late, General Lin is resting here." Guo Shao said, and ordered his subordinates not to treat him badly. Guo Shao spoke and kept talking about General Lin, and his respect was beyond words. Of course, Lin Renzhao would not be treated rudely, let alone dragged into a small dark room like in Jinling and beaten indiscriminately.

At this time Li Chuyun, Shi Yanchao and other generals heard the noise and all came. Guo Shao wanted to sleep at first, so he had to sit and talk with them for a while.

Shi Yanchao also seemed to think highly of Lin Renzhao. He sat down and said, "That guy has two talents. He can stop me in a chaotic battle and run away. He is skilled and cunning."...

Guo Shao said with a smile: "There are really not many people who can make General Shi look up to."

After hearing this, Li Chuyun and others looked at each other in blank dismay, and smiled wryly.

Shi Yanchao snorted at the people next to him, then turned his head to look at Guo Shao: "The Southern Tang ruler over there in Jiangning Mansion can't shake the scene, and the internal fighting is fierce, why don't we go straight to Jiangning City?"

Guo Shao looked at Li Chuyun with a questioning expression on his face.

Li Chuyun pondered for a long time: "I'm afraid there are still risks. Deputy Shi said that the Southern Tang Kingdom was in chaos, and he was right, but until now their strength is still not bad, but the situation is not good. The problem with my Great Zhou Army is that Tokyo and the north have held back a lot of troops, and they cannot use their full strength, resulting in a shortage of elite soldiers for the Southern Tang campaign.

However, Jiangning Prefecture has a large number of troops, and the surrounding Runzhou, Jingkou, and Jiangmian are still under the heavy control of the Southern Tang Army; the strength of the large South Tang land in the southwest is also threatening my back. Therefore, the final general thought that this was not the time to attack the city, so there was no rush. "

Guo Shao nodded and said directly: "I think the next step should be the Jingkou Southern Tang Army Navy."

He reviewed several generals, and said: "The biggest result we have achieved so far is to secure the quarry and break through the natural moat of the river; but the occupied territory and the strength of the Southern Tang army that has been wiped out are not many. If we want to stabilize the quarry and try to make progress, we must still focus on quarrying..."

The generals nodded frequently, Guo Shao saw this and continued: "Hukou has a large number of Southern Tang navy always threatening the quarry, and may join with the Jingkou navy to attack Li Chuyun's navy from front to back. We must not underestimate the combat power of the Southern Tang navy. Once we lose the quarry navy, we will lose control of the river and be blocked from retreat and food roads. The control of the river is of great importance.

However, the enemy troops at Jingkou are also in danger of being flanked from front to back. The offensive and defensive momentum only depends on who takes the initiative and who seizes the opportunity... So I think the next step should be to deploy the siege of Beijing as soon as possible. "

Li Chuyun said: "The Zhou army can also attack Jiangning mansion on the shore, pretending to take the enemy's capital directly. When the soldiers approach the city, the Southern Tang army may mobilize heavy troops to return to the defense, thinking that it is a strategy to attack the west."

Guo Shao took it for granted, and issued several preliminary military orders that night. Wang Pu was ordered to move the shogunate of the Chinese army to Caishi; Luo Yanhuan was also ordered to lead the right wing of the Long Jie army who stayed in Chizhou to move northward, and the front of the Zhou army to shrink to the northeast to alleviate the shortage of troops.

Then he sent people to Wuyue State, and asked Cao Bin to urge Wuyue State to send troops to attack Runzhou (Zhenjiang) to cooperate with the Zhou army.
