Chapter 955 Water Control Celebrities(2/2)
As for Qin Qiong, Xu Chu, and Chu Tian, there are Yuchi Gong and Dian Wei, who can be compared.
Zhang Xun was one of the top famous generals in the Han Empire.
During the Anshi Rebellion of the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Xun used thousands of people to restrain more than 100,000 rebels, and bought time for the Tang Dynasty to gather troops to fight back, and eventually the city was destroyed and died.
In order to defend the city, Zhang Xun could even kill his concubine and Yi Zi fed each other.
According to the view of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism in the feudal era, Zhang Xun was undoubtedly a loyal minister and hero of the Tang Dynasty.
Without Zhang Xun, perhaps famous Tang generals such as Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi may not have enough time to organize troops to counterattack the rebels such as An Lushan and rebuild the Tang Dynasty.
It is said that the Tang Dynasty has always been entrenched in Nanyang County, proclaiming himself the prefect of Nanyang, relying on the power of Jingzhou, and maintaining its status as a prince.
In the battle of Guanzhong, it was said that Tang, under the instigation of Lao Qin, sent troops to restrain Chu Tian's troops.
Chu Tian always wanted to tell Tang that he used troops, but when he thought that Zhang Xun was the garrison in Wancheng, he might not be able to break through Wancheng in one or two years, so he had not conquered Nanyang County for a long time.
In the early stage, Chu Tian focused on unifying the north, and Nanyang County was dispensable before using troops to Jingzhou.
Xuchang is not the center of Chutian's power, so Nanyang County's threat to Xuchang is not a big threat to Chutian.
Now, if you want to capture Xiangfan, you must attack Wancheng and Xinye before you can reach Xiangfan.
"How lucky is Cao Cao going south and Liu Biao died of illness. Otherwise, it would be easier for him to pacify Jingzhou with more than 100,000 armored men in Jingzhou. Unfortunately, Cao Cao failed in the Battle of Chibi."
Chu Tian couldn't help but sigh that Cao Cao was in action at that time and was lost by himself again.
Chu Tian was not facing the weak Jingzhou at this time.
In Jingzhou, Nanyang County is said to be occupied by the Tang Dynasty, the most important Nan County is occupied by Yang Shilang, and the four counties of Jiangxia County and Jingnan are controlled by Tongque. Therefore, Tongque has absolute say over Jingzhou.
Originally, Yang Shilang was going to be destroyed by Tongque, but the two sides negotiated that Tongque borrowed Nanjun to Yang Shilang, and Yang Shilang continued to serve as King of Song, which was equivalent to the alliance between Liu Bei and Sun Quan in history.
