Nanjun and Nanyangjun, there are no villages, no grassroots governments, only strong manors and county-level governments.

If you insist that there is something that can prove that this place belongs to the Wei State, then it is highly likely that there will be 30,000 Wei troops led by General Zhu Ling, the Jiangling camp.

Thirty thousand Wei army troops that had quelled the barbarian rebellion in Jingnan were used to stop Guo Peng from shocking the centrifugal forces in Jingzhou and to go south to Jiaozhou in the future.

But it's very useful now.

The powerful coalition forces in Jingzhou united to rebel in Nanyang County and Nanjun, and soon controlled many important cities in Nanyang County and Nanjun, and even Xiangyang was occupied.

They quickly swept the two counties, achieved military occupation, and then advanced to Jiangling City in large numbers.

Due to large-scale entanglement, the number of powerful rebels in Nanjun reached a very terrifying number of 70,000.

This is just Nanjun, not counting Nanyang County. The number of rebels in Nanyang County is also very terrifying, with 50,000 or 60,000 people. Together, the largest rebels in the world were born.

The powerful men of the last era were unwilling to withdraw from the stage of history. At the intersection of history, they devoted all their strength to burst out in one breath and burst out powerful forces.

This powerful force caused the comprehensive and rapid fall of Nanjun and Nanyang County, leaving only Nanyang County Wancheng and Nanjun County Jiangling City not to be conquered.

The rebellion suddenly arose, and a hundred responses were answered.

Without buffering, division and siege and counterattack from grassroots villages, the rebels in Nanjun and Nanyang County were as good as fish in water, and they really formed the position of the Yellow Turban Army back then, sweeping two counties in a very short time.

The weak official power was eliminated before he even had time to react, just like when Zhang Jiao rebelled.

Of course, it is more about forces that will not resist at all. They will only join with them and join the rebels together. The momentum is huge. Many county towns take the initiative to open the city gates and merge with the rebels.

The Wei Empire's rule in these two counties was not better than that in the Han Empire. Many people didn't know what happened. The rebels everywhere promoted the unjust laws of Emperor Wei, the will of God to let Emperor Wei be doomed, and the world would be like what would happen. People's hearts immediately began to shake.

There were even rumors that Guo Peng died and Luoyang was in chaos. At this time, the heroes were competing for the world, and they called on everyone to rebel immediately.

They still have some concerns about Guo Peng's life, but if Guo Peng dies, then...

Still worried!

Get up and do it!

It’s true that many people believe that Guo Peng is dead, Luoyang is in chaos, the world is in chaos, and now it is a chaotic world.

Without the emperors who are overwhelming the world, they will not worry about anything. They were only afraid of Guo Peng. Only Guo Peng suppressed the local area with supreme prestige, so these centrifugal forces did not dare to act rashly.

Now, is he dead?

Then what are you afraid of?

The northern part of Jingzhou suddenly became in chaos. After sweeping Nanjun and Nanyang County, the rebels marched towards Sili, Yuzhou and Jiangxia County respectively to cause rebellion.

Then on the other hand, the main force of the Nanjun rebels was more than 60,000 people heading towards Jiangling, with the stance of conquering Jiangling and destroying the Wei army in Jingzhou.

I have to say that after so many years of rest, their strength is really strong and they can really arm their army.

Even if Guo Peng did not set up arsenal in any city except Jiangling City and Wancheng, they could make a lot of weapons, most of which were weapons in the former Han Dynasty.

The willingness to rebel is obvious and not concealed at all.

The incident happened very quickly. In their base camp, their speed and efficiency were indeed very fast. Cai Mao had no time to deal with it, and had no time to join forces to handle something, Nanjun and Nanyangjun were swept away.

Then the rebels really thought that the world was in chaos and attacked from all sides. Cai Mao was shocked when he learned the news.

As its base camp and as the most important ruling tentacle of the Wei Empire in Jingzhou, Jiangling City cannot be lost.

Cai Mao immediately spread the rebellion of Nanjun and Nanyangjun to Jingnan, Yizhou and Yangzhou, hoping to get help from other parties, and then fully assist the Jingzhou garrison to protect Jiangling City.

Zhu Ling, the governor of Jiangling Camp, and Guo Lie, the deputy governor, quickly entered Jiangling City and negotiated with Cai Mao overnight to deal with the strategy.

Of course, Zhu Ling is more importantly criticizing Cai Mao for not telling himself what he knew as soon as possible.

"Since they have already shown an anti-intention, the envoy should tell me immediately. I will send troops to eliminate them immediately, take the initiative, and kill the rebellion, and not reach this point today."

Zhu Ling was very angry and scolded Cai Mao very much.

Guo Lie was also very angry and scolded Cai Mao for his slow reaction, which led to a disaster.

Cai Mao knew that he was in the wrong, so he did not dare to offend Zhu Ling. He also knew that Guo Lie was the absolute confidant of Guo Peng, so he did not dare to retaliate and whispered to admit his mistakes, hoping that Zhu Ling and Guo Lie would think of a solution.

"After this, the safety of Jingzhou depends on the general. The arsenal and grain warehouses in Jiangling City are allowed to be used by the general. I hope the general will protect Jiangling. If Jiangling is in trouble, Cai will be punished for his death."

Zhu Ling sighed.

"If I had known this, why would I be lucky? Well, Jingzhou has now entered a wartime state. According to the court's regulations, all defense and material mobilizations in Jingzhou will be the responsibility of this general. I have no objection, right?"

Cai Mao shook his head repeatedly.

"I will definitely do my best to help the general quell the rebellion!"

Cai Mao wished someone would help him take the blame now.

Zhu Ling is so brave, and he has the emperor's absolute confidant Guo Lie by his side, so of course it depends on their performance.

Zhu Ling nodded.

"Don't worry, even if the rebels come with a hundred thousand troops, I can still remove them. Can a group of mobs and a temporary pieced together army compete with the army? If so, then if I am defeated, I have nothing to say."

Zhu Ling took a deep breath: "If you want to defend Jiangling, you must defend Dangyang. I will lead troops to Dangyang to fight the rebels in a decisive battle. Please help me prepare our army's logistics."

"Dangyang? Decisive battle?"

Cai Mao hesitated a little: "Our army has fewer soldiers and many rebels. Our army should shrink its forces and defend Jiangling, right? Jiangling is a strong city after all."

"The rebels do have many soldiers, but they are all chaotic people, vulnerable. Although our army has few soldiers, they are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles and have the courage to be ten, so I am not worried about not being able to defeat them. In this case, the sooner the rebellion, the better, the sooner the rebellion is, the less guilty you and me will be."

Zhu Ling said, "If you drag reinforcements to the court, you will be very guilty. In this way... In order to ensure that everything is safe, I suggest that we mobilize the militias of Wuling County, Jingnan and Changsha County across the river and go north to defend Jiangling."

The Wei government did not arrange villages in Nanjun and Nanyang County, but the four counties of Jiangxia County and Jingnan County arranged villages according to the rules and established a militia system.

The militias in the four counties of Jingnan were directly created by the retirement of the Jingzhou Army at that time, and their combat effectiveness was still believed.

Relying on them as the tentacles of rule in recent years, the four counties in Jingnan have been well controlled, and the taxes paid by the four counties in Jingnan have become the main part of the entire Jingzhou.

The mobilization must start immediately. Once the situation changes, such as if there is a little chance that the frontline war situation is unfavorable, the militias need to use their strength to defend Jiangling and wait for the court to support it.

So, Jingzhou entered a wartime state.

While mobilizing grain and fodder to build logistics for Zhu Ling and Guo Lie's main forces, Cai Mao ordered Wuling County and Changsha County to mobilize militias in Wuling County and Changsha County, and asked the two counties to mobilize at least 10,000 militias across the river and go north to Jiangling to assist in defense of Jiangling.
