Lujiang, since Lu Ning received defense, although it is a place where military strategists must fight for and a relatively wealthy place in Huainan Belt, the surrounding princes are still very self-controlled, and they don’t want to provoke Lu Ning, a lunatic. Last time, Yuan Shu in Shouchun attacked Wancheng, which caused a loss of troops and generals, and no benefit was obtained. Even Sun Ce, who was in a strong position in Jiangdong in recent years, could only sigh and dare not attack Lujiang easily. Especially in recent years, under Lu Kang's careful management, Lujiang's economy has been much stronger than other places around him. It can be called a county and a rich people. Lu Kang is wholeheartedly managing the local area. As for the matters in the General Secretary for Discipline and General Secretary to deal with, it also has a deterrent effect on the surrounding princes.

In the government office of Lu Kang in Wancheng, Lu Kang was very troubled. The problem was that there were many illegal bandits gathered on the Brooklyn Mountain, more than 100 miles north of Wancheng. In the past, bandits on the Brooklyn Mountain basically did not rob the local people. Since the princes in various places have strengthened their crackdowns in the past two years, the bandits on the mountain have had a difficult life. For the sake of life and survival, they have also broken the rule that rabbits do not eat grass by their nests. Recently, they are robbed in Lujiang every day. The local defenders have no way to clear them out, and the bandits are becoming more and more courageous, and even commit crimes frequently, causing huge harm to the local people.

Although there are 5,000 troops under Lu Ning stationed in Anhui City, Lu Kang could not mobilize him. If he wants to mobilize the army, he must need General Zhang Liao from the Ruxuwu Military Base to give an order, otherwise everything will be useless. The general in Anhui City is Xu Sheng, the wise general promoted by General Zhang Liao a year ago. Speaking of General Xu Sheng, he was indeed recommended by General Zhang Liao two years ago. After two years of training, his ability was recognized by General Zhang Liao and was fortunate to go to Jincheng Military School for half a year of further training. Now, through his own efforts, he has been promoted to the rank of colonel and is also considered the best among the young generals.

In fact, Xu Sheng, Xu Wenxiang, and Lu Ning knew very well that this was an amazing person, but he just didn't tell Zhang Liao. During the Three Kingdoms period, it was recorded that Xu Sheng was a general under Sun Ce. He was very wise and different from ordinary military generals. He was very good at leading troops and was also loved by soldiers. Like Zhao Yun, he was also a very handsome and handsome talent. He also had a white horse with white armor and a silver spear. From a distance, he would think he was General Zhao Yun. This man stood at the right moment under Sun Ce and made great achievements in his military achievements. He followed Sun Ce to pacify the east and west of the Yangtze River and obtained countless prominent fronts. He was very popular with Sun Ce, and his bravery was hard to find in the world. He should be listed as a second-rate and slightly stronger.

The bandits entrenched in the Jiliangshan made a fuss, which made Old Man Lu Kang unable to sit still. If he didn't clear the enemy, it would cause greater harm to the people. The old man told his subordinates to handle daily affairs. He immediately rushed to the Ruxuwu Wharf with a few followers. He had to ask General Zhang to send troops to clear the Jiliangshan bandits.

Due to the construction of several years, the Ruxuwu Wharf has now become an important base for Lu Ning in Jiangnan and a crucial chess piece for Lu Ning to build in Jiangnan. Although Lu Ning only stationed 20,000 troops at Ruxuwu Wharf, including the 5,000 troops in Anhui City, it has indeed caused great deterrence to the princes around the Jiangnan area. Whether it is Sun Ce from Jiangdong, Yuan Shu from Huainan, or Liu Biao from Jingzhou, he dared not step into the territory of Lujiang easily. In particular, the 5,000 navy even blocked the entire estuary of the Yangtze River. As long as the warships that dared to sail to the control of the Lu Ning army in the estuary of the Yangtze River, no matter any prince, they would face a severe blow. Even the old Jingzhou navy or Sun Ce who is currently in the limelight, their navy will not dare to touch a step.

Although there has not been any war in Lujiang in recent years, Zhang Liao's 20,000 troops have never stopped training. They have strictly implemented the various training plans and contents of the General Staff of Lu Ning day after day. The Feixiong Army and the Brutal Bear Army have even practiced practical training, with real swords and guns, with infantry confrontation, infantry and cavalry converging, and cavalry confrontation. Sometimes Zhang Liao would bring troops to the territory of other princes to conduct demonstrations, and at the same time attack the bandits and let the soldiers see the smell of blood.

The 5,000 naval soldiers in Ruxuwu Wharf often conduct actual combat and conduct a comprehensive crackdown on the water bandits at the mouth of the Yangtze River. As long as they are in the controlled area, the water bandits will flee far away when they see Lu Ning's sea dragon army. Of course, the water bandits have also been sunk several times, and later the Jingzhou naval army no longer dares to cross the line. After hearing Zhou Yu's stop, the naval army under Sun Ce did not dare to mess with the sea dragon army. After all, Zhou Yu personally commanded the naval soldiers under Lu Ning. His combat power made him frightened, and he knew that meeting such a navy would be like a nightmare.

Lu Kang and his several subordinates arrived at the gate of the military camp at Ruxuwu Wharf. The entire military camp was rigorously arranged and the guards were strict, so outsiders could not enter at all. Without General Zhang Liao's notice, even if Lu Ning himself came here, he would not be able to enter without the notice. Of course, Lu Ning himself would definitely have a token and could enter and exit. This just means that the defense here is extremely strict.

Lu Kang took out a reply and asked his entourage to hand it over to the guards. After the guards entered for a while, General Zhang Liao personally came to the gate of the barracks to greet Lu Kang. As soon as they met, Zhang Liao smiled and said, "What kind of wind has blown Mr. Lu? This is a rare guest."

Mr. Lu Kang immediately bowed, which was also the pedantic habit of Confucian scholars in this era. Zhang Liao also returned the gift. After the two sides gave a gift, Mr. Lu said, "General Wenyuan, I am here to ask you for help this time."

Zhang Liao said with a smile: "Old man, if you have anything to do, then slowly say it. As long as I can help you, I am obliged to do so. If it is a violation of the regulations, nothing you say is useless. You know my elder brother's temper, who dares to violate it?"

Lu Kang was not angry after hearing this. After all, he had dealt with Lu Ning and fought together. He still knew the system of Lu Ning's army. Besides, this time it was not a private matter, but what are you afraid of? If you don't send troops, then I will send someone to Jinyang to find Lu Ning. After telling him the situation, I will also order the troops to leave.

The group arrived at Zhang Liao's tent, and the guards brought tea. Lu Kang raised his mouth and took a sip, then said with a smile: "General Wenyuan, it's not a private matter for me to ask for help this time, but the bandits on the backbone mountain, more than 100 miles north of Anhui City, are now in a wasteland. In the past, these bandits did not commit crimes locally and had no crimes committed against us in Lujiang. Recently, Liu Biao, Jingzhou and Yuan Shu from Shouchun are strengthening their attacks. The bandits on the backbone mountain are forced to do nothing, and now they have to rob them in Lujiang, causing huge harm to the people in various places, but local officials are powerless. After all, there are probably tens of thousands of people on the backbone mountain, and they can't wipe them out by relying on local police personnel."

After hearing this, Zhang Liao laughed. In fact, he had known this situation for a long time. He also sent a large number of scouts to survey the geography, landforms and bandits entrenched on the mountain. Even if you don’t come to beg me, I will be ready to send troops to clear it out. This is also considered training. The five thousand infantrymen saw blood and used blood to baptize the soldiers’ souls. This is very effective in improving the soldiers’ combat slashing, and it can also stimulate the soldiers’ blood and make the soldiers mature and become strong as soon as possible.

After laughing, Zhang Liao looked up at Mr. Lu Kang and said seriously: "Old man, I know what you said. Even if you don't tell me, I will send troops to clear out this group of bandits in the near future. Our army's scouts report that there are two waves of bandits entrenched on the backbone mountain, which are Chen Pu and Zulang, the second brothers of Zushan. Chen Pu's band of bandits have about 10,000. In addition to the old and weak women, it is estimated that there are six or seven thousand soldiers and horses that can be fought. Another wave of Zulang, Zushan's two brothers also have more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, but the two bandits have more than 13,000 soldiers and horses. The two bandits have more than 20,000 soldiers and horses in total, but the combat power is extremely poor and the equipment is even more than 20,000. Some soldiers only have wooden sticks and wooden forks in their hands, but the road to the backbone mountain is very difficult to walk, and our army is very troublesome when attacking."

Lu Kang agreed very much. He has been in Lujiang for some years. In addition, he was born in Jiangdong and was very familiar with the geographical and geography and situation in Lujiang. He knew in his heart that the most difficult thing to attack the bandits on the Broken Mountain was the road problem. If it was not handled well, even if there were thousands of troops, it would be useless. It would only cause losses to the generals. This is also the old man’s most worried about. “General Wenyuan, you are right. I have been in Lujiang for many years. Although I can’t say that I know the original grass and trees here, the specific situation is still very clear. The roads on Broken Mountain are indeed very steep, surrounded by cliffs and dozens of feet high, and even monkeys cannot get up. There are two roads to Broken Mountain: one is to lead to Chen Pu’s bandits in the east.

The thief nest is very narrow, only enough for two people to pass side by side, and the road is tortuous and uneven. There are cliffs on both sides of the road. There is a wall dock built by Chen Pu on the hillside, which can be regarded as a gate for one man to pass through, and ten thousand men cannot reach it. Another road on the same hillside is a small path on the south side, leading to the bandit Zulang and Zushan’s bandit den. Although it is a road, it can only allow one person to walk. If you are not careful, you may fall into a cliff. It is even more difficult than the road to the east. It is really difficult to reach the sky. The wall dock built by Zulang and Zushan on the hillside is also built by Zulang and Zushan. Its defense ability is stronger. If you blindly attack, our army will suffer huge casualties and will not have any effect. You have to find other ways to solve the bandits on the hill."

When Zhang Liao heard this, I knew what the old man said. Isn’t that stupid to let my soldiers do such a death-lost thing? But it seems like there is a way to listen to your words. Is there really a good way? "Mr. Lu, it is really difficult to deal with the bandits on the back. I will definitely not let my soldiers die in vain. Does the old man have any good way to eliminate the two waves of bandits on the mountain?"
