Chapter 445 Mutiny

"Dad! Dad!" Xiaobao ran to his father's tent excitedly.

Two guards at the door frequently winked at him.

Xiaobao just heard that he was going to go home from the camp. He was excited and didn't see it. He rushed over from the two guards, lifted the curtain and got in.

"Dad..." It was miserable.

The generals and military advisors all looked back at him.

"What kind of hair is dry? I won't report it when I come in?" Lu Bocheng frowned and scolded.

"Dad, I was wrong."

Dabao followed behind, understood the guard's eyes, and stopped outside the tent. But when he heard that his father was scolding Xiaobao, he thought about it and lifted the curtain and went in.

"Wei Zhao has met all the generals and military advisors."

"Wei Yang has met all the generals and military advisors." The two brothers came to their senses and hurriedly greeted the elders in the tent.

"Hahaha, it's okay. Your father still thinks you are too irritable, so he didn't have a young age?" Qian Kuan laughed and tried to smooth things over, for fear that the Jiedushi would deal with Xiaobao's military law.

These two children were deeply loved by him. Especially Xiaobao, who is better than blue than blue. In the past three years, he has secretly followed them out to fight many battles, but no one present dared to underestimate him.

There are some follow-ups for lord. It’s a happy congratulations.

The generals looked at the adults' two sons and said that the tiger father had no dog son, and they were really a fearful young man. At the age of twelve or thirteen, he was already a perfect tiger general. In time, his achievements were far above their father.

Everyone's eyes were delighted.

Xiaobao secretly looked up at his father, and saw his father glaring at him, but there was no anger in his eyes, so he quietly let out a sigh of relief.

"Stand behind!"

Lu Bocheng was discussing matters with the generals, but was interrupted by his youngest son. Seeing the generals helping to smooth things over, he raised his hand, and it was fine.

"Yes." Dabao and Xiaobao hurriedly stood behind the generals, pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

"This time, Wei Bojun has a civil strife. Should we do something?"

"What can we do? There are a few states north of the Yellow River, and we are separated by us. We can't attack it, right?"

"It's not a few states. It would be great if it were Caozhou and Weizhou, and we were just here to get the bargain. I'm afraid that the bargain would be taken by Jin this time."

"If Jin swallowed Wei Bo's 100,000 troops, it would be very unfavorable for us."

"Jin and Liang are fighting, we can just sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight, we can't do anything against us, right?"

"Why can't you make a mistake? If Jin grows bigger and swallows Wei Bo, the road to the south will be opened. Our Xuzhou is so close to him, aren't you afraid that Jin will take a bite?"

After Wu Youzhen, the third emperor of the Liang Dynasty, came to power, the treasury was empty and corrupt officials were appointed to make money. Not only did external social conflicts intensify, but there were constant contradictions within the royal family.

The sons of Wu Quanzhong were suspicious of each other and were dissatisfied with the brothers on the throne. If you mess with me today, I mess with you tomorrow. I always want to launch a coup to seize the throne.

Wu Youzhen's head is as big as a fight.

Flawlessly, the last three states of Jiangsu failed. Jiangning, Runzhou and Changzhou were won by Zhenhaijun in the battle between Wuguo and Zhenhaijun.

The main thing that made Wu Youzhen like a thorn in his throat was Yang Shihou, the governor of Wei Bo.

Yang Shihou relied on his support, and was arrogant and unlawful, and looked down on the monarch. Wu Youzhen was afraid of his great power. No matter how big or small the affairs in the court were, they would consult Yang Shihou first before they could implement it.

Yang Shihou became the supreme emperor of the Liang Dynasty.

Fortunately, only two years later, Yang Shihou died of illness shortly after being old. After Wu Youzhen learned the news, he felt relieved and held a banquet in the palace to celebrate. After the congratulations, he felt that Weibo Town was still a big threat.

Wei Bo has many soldiers and generals, Wei Bo's soldiers are brave and good at fighting, and their geographical location is close to the imperial capital. If this threat is not lifted, Wu Youzhen will not be able to live in peace.

So his confidant Zhao Yan offered a suggestion, it would be better to divide Wei Bo into two while his army has no leader, so as to weaken his strong position.

Wu Youzhen followed his plan and issued an edict to divide Wei Bo into Tianxiong and Zhaode towns. The soldiers of his treasury were divided in half. He was afraid that Wei Bo's soldiers would not accept it, so he sent general Liu Xu to lead an army of 60,000 across the Yellow River and approached Weizhou, preparing to suppress the enemy.

Wei Bo's soldiers were soldiers for generations and were unwilling to be separated and weakened at all, so they gathered people to mutiny. They set fire and robbed the new Jiedushi He Delun, and asked to surrender to Jin.

Wu Youxian was overjoyed and planned to lead his army to Weizhou in person to prepare to accept Wei Bo's army.

The news reached Lu Bocheng.

Three years have passed, and it is too difficult. Wu wants to compete for the three places of Jiangning, and Lu Bocheng also wants to.

But the three prefectures of Jiangning are not idle food. They are originally a wealthy place in Jiangnan, with abundant food and sufficient money, strong soldiers and strong horses. Whoever wants to take it away would take it away.

Three years have passed since this stalemate.

Fortunately, Lu Bocheng's Zhenhai Army had the support of King Yue, and Yang Bi took advantage of the battle between Liang and Jin and divided his troops to head north.

It was only then that Lu Bocheng made a concerted effort to win Jiangning, Runzhou and Changzhou.

Just as he was about to set off the camp and return to Xuzhou, news came from Wei Bo.

Lu Bocheng listened to the discussions of the generals and military advisors below, frowned and knocked his fingers on the table.

Suddenly he said: "You said that Wei Bojun showed goodwill to Jin and asked to surrender to Jin. Is this news true or false?"

Ah, can this be fake?

"Why would the marshal think that this news is false?"

Lu Bocheng thought for a moment before saying, "First of all, Wei Bo's soldiers once killed Mu Youxian's brother. This is equivalent to an enemy. Are they not afraid that Mu Youxian will settle the accounts with them?"

"Secondly, they were originally soldiers of the Liang Dynasty, but now they were going to break up and divide them into two vassal states. They were not happy. It was nothing more than that the upper-level generals and officials did not want to be decentralized and their power was weakened. Then, can they guarantee that they will not be disbanded? Jin can also let the original upper-level generals lead their troops and not seep into their own people?"

this……

The generals did not expect this level and looked at each other.

"Why does the marshal think?"

"I don't know very well inside, but I think this is the smoke bomb they want to put pressure on Liang Chao to deliberately put out? Once Liang Chao gets this news, he is afraid that they will really surrender to Yu Jin. What if he agrees with their request and maintains the status quo?"

All the generals frowned and thought.

"It's not impossible. They did not want to decentralize power, so they caused this mutiny. If the status quo can be maintained, it would be better. If they surrender to Jin, it would be impossible for Jin to break up them and let their close friends lead them. It would be more costly."

"Then what should we do?"

"Of course we don't want Jin to swallow Wei Bo so smoothly. Wei Bo's 100,000 troops were all brave and good at fighting. If Jin can do it, it will be like a tiger with wings. It poses a great threat to our town's navy."

"Can we quietly divide them? We took Weizhou by us, but we lost it later. Since we want to divide the troops, it is better to surrender to Jin. Jin is a foreign tribe, so why surrender to a foreign tribe?"

"Yes, let's send someone to sneak into Wei Bo to see if we can instigate them!"

The generals became more and more excited as they spoke.

It seemed as if he saw 100,000 Wei Bojun coming to join them.

But Lu Bocheng is not very optimistic.

Wei Bojun has been soldiers for generations, and they are probably not happy to leave their hometowns. At present, Lu Bocheng does not want to occupy the territory north of the Yellow River. Jin and Liang are in great influence, and they did not have an advantage in the past.

Lu Bocheng stopped everyone's discussion.

"When Wei Bo is about to become the battlefield for the Jin and Liang armies, our Xuzhou is not far away. We must prepare for the war with all our might and be ready at any time."

"yes."

"The cavalry of Jin is much stronger than the Liang army. Once Wei Bo is seized and Jin's way to the south is opened, it will be extremely unfavorable to our army. Our cavalry is weaker than Jin, so please not relax and you cannot stop daily training. Cavalry training needs to be strengthened!"

"Yes, get order!"
