Chapter 580: Guo Jia's Shamelessness
As Meng Dejun's good friend, Song Yichen personally met with the messenger, he didn't expect that the person who came turned out to be Meng Dejun's right-hand man Cao Ren, Cao Ren's military strength is very good. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAfter the defeat in the Battle of Chibi, Cao Ren defended Jiangling and Zhou Yu dragged on for a year, which won valuable time for Cao Cao to regroup, Weinan broke Ma Chao, broke the rebellion of Su Bo, Tian Yin, Hou Yin, blocked Guan Yu's attack in the battle of Xiangfan, and Xu Huang broke Chen Shao and marched to Xiangyang. In the entire Cao Cao regime, Cao Ren's military exploits are definitely among the top three.
Although the two met for the first time, Cao Ren's favorability towards Song Yichen was still not low, presumably Cao Cao had told him about the relationship between the two before he came. During the period when Song Yichen was the pastor of Yangzhou, he did not forget to have a good relationship with the previous group of good friends, whether it was Cao Cao or Yuan Shao, he would often send someone to send something over, and there were many correspondences, especially Cao Cao, and from time to time he wrote a few poems to bring him over, so that Song Yichen could evaluate and evaluate, if people who didn't know would think that there was a greasy and adulterous relationship between the two of them!
"You are Zixiao, I have heard Brother Meng De mention you many times, but I didn't expect him to send you over. Cao Ren took the lead in saluting Song Yichen, and Song Yichen also returned the salute, I have to say that Song Yichen is still tired of these etiquettes in ancient China, it is really too troublesome.
"This was sent by the eldest brother Toren to the state pastor. Cao Ren respectfully handed Cao Cao's imitation edict to Song Yichen, along with a letter from Cao Cao.
Song Yichen took a general look at the edict, and had to sigh, it is worthy of the great man Meng Dejun, even the edict is written so well, but Meng Dejun, you seem to have forgotten that Liu Xie is still a child, how could he write such a majestic edict. Of course, these are all negligible, and the princes are well aware of this matter, but Cao Cao's edict gave them an excuse.
Song Yichen then opened the letter that Meng Dejun gave him, there must be nothing unsightly here, if there is really a foundation, he will not let Cao Ren take it. The content of the letter is very simple, Cao Cao told Song Yichen about the righteousness of the world, and said a lot of bad things about Dong Fatzi, and at the same time said that the two of them received the emperor's favor and needed to repay the kindness of the first emperor, and begged Song Yichen to send troops. The content of the letter is still very simple, but the emotions in it are very strong. With Song Yichen's understanding of Meng Dejun, perhaps Meng Dejun at this time is really an aspiring young man with the Han family in mind, and as for the crooked path in the future, it should be caused by the disappointment of the Han family and the amplification of the ambition of power.
"Zixiao, I already understand what Brother Meng De means, and I will immediately dispatch people to help now. After reading the letter, Song Yichen said to Cao Ren.
Song Yichen's approach Cao Ren was not surprised, when Cao Cao sent him before, he had said that Song Yichen would definitely participate, in Cao Cao's eyes, Song Yichen was also a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty like himself, and Song Yichen would definitely not refuse such an important matter as saving His Majesty.
After calling someone to arrange for Cao Ren to rest, Song Yichen called his henchmen over, and now both Liu Ye and He Qi and Cheng Yu have recognized Song Yichen as the main father, and some people of insight have seen that the world is about to be in chaos, and Song Yichen is a potential stock, under the governance of "him", Yangzhou's comprehensive strength is among the top among all forces.
"Look at it!" Song Yichen didn't show them Meng Dejun's private message, and what he took out was only Meng Dejun's edict.
Song Yichen's women naturally don't need to look at this edict, they may know more about these than Song Yichen, as the chief dog-headed military advisor under Song Yichen, Xi Zhicai took over the edict in Song Yichen's hand and looked at it together with Guo Jia, Cheng Yu and others.
"My lord, I think I should send troops. Xi Zhicai and the sages glanced at each other after reading the edict, and Xi Zhicai stood up and said.
"Of course, you have to send troops, but how many soldiers and horses to bring with you, those people to go with, this is all up to you to consider. Song Yichen rolled his eyes, crusading against Dong Zhuo, isn't this nonsense?!Is the rhythm of going there good?!Dong Fatzi is now a copy of the Great Persia, who is not going to go to Japan!?Not to mention that his favorite old fox Jia Xu is in the Xiliang Army, and he must be kidnapped, no, he must be invited.
"The subordinates thought that 20,000 soldiers and horses were enough. Xi Zhicai was silent for a while and said the number in his heart.
Song Yichen was slightly disappointed when he heard this, it is not a good thing to bring more soldiers now, and now there is no pressure on the whole Yangzhou to get 100,000 soldiers and horses, but this affects his reputation, and he doesn't want to be the first bird, 20,000 soldiers and horses, more than he expected.
"My subordinates think that 10,000 soldiers and horses are enough, or 5,000 cavalry can be brought with them. Guo Jia had been observing Song Yichen's expression, and knew that the lord was not satisfied with Xi Zhicai's proposal, so he immediately said it.
"5000 cavalry?!" 10,000 soldiers and horses is also the price of Song Yichen's heart before, but 5000 cavalry makes him hesitate, after all, the deterrent power of 5000 cavalry is too great, the combat power of cavalry in the plain war is much higher than that of infantry, before his cavalry has been in the limelight in the Battle of the Yellow Turban, but he doesn't want to use it, after all, so much time has passed, if he doesn't take out the cavalry troops, others will think that his war horses are dead, you must know that it is not easy to raise horses in the south, and the quality of the war horses raised is not good.
"Yes, after all, cavalry cannot be used to siege cities. Guo Jia smiled and said her answer, everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, it is worthy of being a ghost Guo Jia, even Zhao Min will Guo Jia look at her differently at this time, she didn't expect this, she felt that her previous self should be able to think of it, but it seems that after following Song Yichen, she is much more upright, and Guo Jia can prove his shamelessness when he thinks of it for the first time. There is a conspiracy between the coalition forces, they will think of ways to weaken the ability of their allies, and taking the cavalry on the road can definitely maintain their strength, after all, the cavalry can't attack the city!
Song Yichen slapped his big hand: "Fengxiao's words are very much in line with my wishes, then bring 5,000 cavalry and 5,000 infantry, and gather 10,000 soldiers and horses to come out, as for others to ask, we said that the Shanyue people have rebelled again recently." ”
Song Yichen's 10,000 soldiers and horses are still very strong, after all, there are 5,000 cavalry, which are definitely more useful than 30,000 infantry on the plain battlefield, and his infantry strength is also stronger than other people's infantry, after all, Zhao Min's training strength is still very strong, and Song Yichen's military camp has three meals a day, and he can eat meat every week, and his physical fitness is much stronger than that of other soldiers.
