The Western Army and the Southern Army were given priority to be replenished, reaching 450,000 and 550,000 respectively, and the two armies had already reached one million troops. Gongsun Du felt that this was not good, and he needed to be further divided, otherwise he would be fine in life, and when he was gone, the aftermath would disperse, and it would be easy to cause chaos. But now is not the time, we have to wait, at least teach these self-righteous guys in front of me a lesson.

There were not many large armies that had completed their training, but there were still enough soldiers to replenish the losses of the Northern and Eastern armies and restore their strength after replenishing the Western and Southern armies. The rest of the soldiers who are about to complete their training, Gongsun Du has also made arrangements, in addition to these two, the northern army will be expanded to 400,000, the naval army will be 250,000, the Chinese army will remain unchanged, and the eastern army will increase to 340,000, a total of 2 million!

Puyang.

After Gao Shun received the replenished army of 250,000, he summoned Yan Liang, Gao Lang and others.

"I don't know what you want to say about this expansion?"

The army of 550,000 can be said to be not small even if it is a country alone, even under Gongsun Du, it has far surpassed the rest of the armies, especially the Chinese army and the navy with the smallest number.

Yan Liang didn't think about the meaning at all, and said with a grin: "Let's say, there are so many brothers, Cao Apu and Liu Da'er know about it, maybe they will kneel down and surrender directly." ”

Gao Shun glanced at him, and then stopped paying attention to this fool.

Gao Ran smiled faintly, and said: "Sun Liu Cao and other armies are gradually coming north to get together, and the war is about to start, Your Majesty's first order is actually the southern army to expand its army by 250,000, and I think that this battle will be faced by the southern army alone." ”

"So good?"

Before Gao Shun could speak, Yan Liang had already shouted: "Your Majesty is good, it's just too powerful!" The use of soldiers is powerful, the martial arts are also powerful, and the governance of the country is also ...... Hey, Your Majesty seems to be powerful at everything! Well, but that's it, and we always have no room to play......"

"Shut up!"

Gao Shun snorted, interrupted Yan Liang's words, and said, "Your Majesty's sage is unprecedented. In the future, you are not allowed to talk like this nonsense again, otherwise you will never be spared! ”

Yan Liang was shocked!

Gao Ran and the others also looked pale, and then responded in unison: "Yes, Du Du!" ”

Gao Shun nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Chen Deng.

Chen Deng understood and said: "As General Gao said, this battle is within the jurisdiction, and the battle should be faced by our southern army alone. That is to say, the combined forces of Sun, Liu and Cao will be faced by us alone. ”

The words are similar, but they are different.

"Ma Teng, Han Sui, if there are signs of raising troops, when it is to Zuo Fengyi, Jingzhao and other counties, there will be Huang Xu, deputy governor of the Western Army. This should also be the reason why His Majesty took the lead in expanding the Western Army and the Southern Army. ”

Gao Shun nodded again, then glanced at the generals and said, "What Chen Changshi said is extremely true!" ”

"Your Majesty is doing this out of trust in us, so we must win this battle and not lose it!"

"Defeated, all from the governor of Pontus down to the governor of Pontus will apologize for their sins! Anyway, it's a waste of food to live. ”

"Yes, Dudu!" The crowd was honored and shouted, "This battle will be won!" ”

Gao Shun's expression eased, and he said: "In order to seek victory, the governor of Pontus decided to use the war fortress to give Sun, Liu and Cao the allied army a head-on attack!" ”

"Governor, the last general is willing to preside over the war fortress!" Yan Liang is always the fastest to speak.

Gao Ran was not far behind, and shouted next: "Governor, the last general is also wishing!" ”

No, Gao Shun waved his hand and said, "Don't fight, this time the governor of Pontus will personally take action, so as to teach them a profound lesson." ”

"Please think twice!" Chen Deng persuaded.

"Yes, Governor!" Yan Liang and Gao Ran also advised.

The old god Gao Shun asked, "Have you used the war fortress?" ”

"Forehead ......"

"The Governor of Pontus has just applied to His Majesty for the transfer of a war fortress with a radius of 100 feet, can you guarantee that you will use it? Can it be used well? ”

"Forehead ......"

"Do you think you're better than Pontus?"

"Forgive your sins!" The soul asked three questions, crushed everyone, and bowed their heads to plead guilty.

"Okay, that's it."

Gao Shun pondered for a moment and said: "Although Sun Liu Cao is a coalition army, Jiangdong is good at water warfare, and he will definitely not come to join Cao's army, maybe he will take the Huaishui into Xu, or attack the coastal city of Xuzhou by sea." ”

Chen Deng seconded the proposal and said: "That's right, Jiangdong Sun Ce is brave, but Zhang Zhao and Lu Su are all great talents in the world, and they will definitely not give up their superior forces, but attack by land." ”

Gao Shun looked at Gao Lan and said: "What Changshi said is true, yes, the governor of Bendu plans to let the deputy governor of the city go to Xuzhou to sit in the town, and he must not let Jiangdong's plan come true." ”

"Yes, Governor, the last general will take the order." Gao Ran assured, "The last general will let Sun Ce know the strength of our Ming army, so that he will not dare to come again." ”

Gao Shun lowered his eyebrows and said: "Don't be careless, in this war, although we have the advantage of the terrain, but in the end there is no naval army to help, there is still some loss in this regard, and Lu Su and others are not trivial, you must not act recklessly, otherwise you may fall into the enemy's tricks." ”

"Xie Dudu reminds!" Gao Ran also had a straight face and responded.

Gao Shun nodded, looked at Yan Liang, and said, "Cheng Gao Cao Zhen, both wise and brave, is likely to become a variable in this battle, so take Xingyang first." ”

"Yes, taking Xingyang is equivalent to cutting off Cao Zhen's way out." Chen Deng explained, "On the one hand, Cao Zhen was jealous and did not dare to easily send troops in the direction of Luoyang, and on the other hand, he could prevent Cao's army from increasing troops to Bishui Pass. It is equivalent to breaking Cao Cao's arm. (Bishui Pass, that is, Chenggao Pass)

Gao Shun nodded and said, "That's right!" ”

"But the speed must be fast, otherwise once Cao Zhen senses the intention, this guy is likely to abandon the pass."

"Isn't that good?" Yan Liang scratched his head full of doubts, isn't it good that the enemy is deserted and flees?

Gao Shun's face suddenly darkened, thinking about whether to change his choice.

At this time, Chen Deng explained with a smile: "There are good and bad. Well, it was a blow to the morale of the coalition forces, but that's about it. Bad, this is serious, Cao Zhen can hold the pass under the attack of the deputy governor of the Western Army, it can be seen that his strength, if he joins forces with the treacherous Cao Cheng, the threat to us will be greatly increased. ”

"Is it like this? Isn't it good to block the water directly? Yan Liang was puzzled.

Gao Shun shook his head and decided to hand over the matter to others, such as Hao Zhao!

Hao Zhao is not very old, but Gao Shun feels very similar to him, and vaguely treats him as an apprentice. Over the past few years, Hao Zhao has learned a lot from Gao Shun, especially in the use of soldiers. It's just that Hao Zhao's martial arts are a hard injury, and the battle of defending the defense is okay, but this battle requires a strong offensive.

With a sweep of his eyes and seeing a person, Gao Shun felt that it was better not to have Hao Zhaoshang in this matter, and it would be better to replace this person.

"Zhang Liao!"

"The last general!"

"There must be no mistake in leading 15,000 light cavalry, 5,000 infantry troops, and a total of 20,000 horse infantry troops to take Xingyang!" When Gao Shun spoke, he couldn't help but feel sorry for this colleague.

In terms of military exploits, Zhang Liao is not inferior to Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others, and even a few points higher, in terms of martial arts, he is not inferior to these people, and in terms of using soldiers, he is far beyond these people. However, Yan Liang and Wen Chou were both deputy governors of the First Army, while Zhang Liao was just a general of the Protector Army. It is very embarrassing to say that it is not high or not, and whether it is low or not.

Zhang Liao watched his former colleagues rise to the top, but he didn't have his own share, and his heart was naturally not so beautiful, but he didn't feel that His Majesty had done something wrong, but kept reflecting on himself, sharpening his martial arts, reading at night, and improving himself.

Up to now, not to mention that Shibei should be impressed in three days, but it has also changed a lot. At least Gao Shun now feels that Zhang Liao may be three points behind him in terms of using troops, but it has only not been practiced, if so...... In terms of martial arts, it is already above him, faintly comparable to Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and even slightly higher.

Zhang Liao didn't think about anything, and he didn't intervene before, but when he heard the order, he immediately got up and answered loudly: "Yes, Dudu!" ”

Subsequently, Gao Shun talked about the arming, during which Chen Deng interacted from time to time to supplement.

The generals dispersed, Chen Deng stayed, and when Zhang Liao wanted to leave, Gao Shun stopped him again.

"Governor!"

Chen Deng looked at him and said with a smile: "General Zhang, don't you know, the governor of this matter has already been selected, but I don't know why it was handed over to you in the end." I hope General Zhang will not live up to the good intentions of the governor! ”

Zhang Liao's heart moved, and as soon as he was about to say his moving words, Gao Shun took the first step to speak, and said: "Don't listen to his nonsense, it's all for Your Majesty's life, and nothing else." ”

"Thank you!" Zhang Liao only said these two words in the end.

Gao Shun nodded and reminded: "Although I don't know why Your Majesty arranged it like this, it must have a deep meaning, but we don't know." Now is your chance, as long as you do well enough, Your Majesty will not turn a blind eye. ”

Zhang Liao nodded, his eyes full of determination. He has never felt uncomfortable in his heart, but in the end, he turned into full of enthusiasm, practiced martial arts hard, and studied hard!

Chen Deng had some speculation, but he didn't dare to ask him to say it, after all-

The will is unpredictable!
