Chapter 466: A stomach grumbling
In addition to deducting the appointment of Cao Cao as the assassin of Sizhou, Zhong Xuan was also appointed to be engaged in the governance of the country, and in addition, other official positions were handed over to Cao Cao to arrange by himself.
Li Su, who came to serve, was appointed as the governor of Pingyang, and Pingyang County was subordinate to Sizhou and was also under the jurisdiction of Cao Cao.
Li Su was originally just a miscellaneous lieutenant general, but now he has become the county governor, and he is quite satisfied with this result. After all, I really didn't make much effort, more as a firefighter.
Li Su was also willing to believe that the main reason for leaving him in Pingyang as a lieutenant was to monitor Cao Cao and Wang Kuang, the two 'feudal officials', as long as they had any trouble, he would report it immediately.
When the time comes, it will definitely be indispensable to add officials to knighthood.
That is, Liu Tao doesn't know what he's thinking, if he knows, he can't complain: "Hehe, you think too much!" ”
Li Su's talent is indeed not very good, and it is not worthy of his attention at all, that's all. If you want to say it, it's probably like throwing garbage, throwing this one to Cao Cao to deal with, you can use it, you can't use it to find an excuse to deprive yourself of military power, and you can dismiss and investigate it.
After the arrangements were made, Liu Tao left the soldiers and military rations, and left about two months of military rations for Guan Yu's department in the early stage, and then the follow-up grain was harvested, and then transported over one after another.
Although Henan Yin was broken, the three counties of Hedong, Binh Duong and Hanoi were quite peaceful and stable. In addition, this year's climate is relatively stable, and it is naturally no problem to meet the needs of the garrison after the autumn harvest.
Besides, Henan Yin's side, mainly in Luoyang, is basically a commercial economy, and there are few farming, mainly homesteaders. Most of them were bought by the magnates, or they were royal properties.
It was Dong Zhuo's fire that really made Luoyang, so much so that the entire Henan Yin was hurtful! On the other hand, the damage to farmland is completely negligible.
"Yes, nothing to arrange...... Right? Liu Tao looked at Guo Jia and the others, just for this, several military divisions basically added a night of shifts to improve the plan.
"No ......" everyone bets on their brains, absolutely nothing!
Lost? If you lose your brain, you don't want it, and it's a painful thing to think of having a brain for the first time. Especially when you have a perfectionist boss.
"That can't be ......" Liu Tao could also feel the resentment of these military advisors, "If there is anything left, please ask Meng De to supplement it himself, I can only help you get here." ”
"It's okay, it's okay, it's a matter of subordination." Cao Cao smiled faintly, he was lying in a groove in his heart, don't plan so carefully, okay, in the end, Lao Tzu almost doesn't even have room to exert his ability, just implementing this plan is enough!
"Sizhou is different from others, there are Huguan in the state, and there are Xianbei people in the north, and it is not easy for Youzhou and Jizhou to come over. On the side of Sizhou, you can come over from the Qinling Mountains in Nanyang, and it directly borders Jizhou and Yanzhou, and the tripartite forces of Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao and Zhang Miao may attack at any time, how can you do it if you don't plan carefully? Liu Tao sighed.
If you really want to be safe, in fact, you can abandon Henan Yin when necessary and stick to the two counties of Hanoi and Hedong. But why give up the turf that was finally defeated?
Naturally, a series of plans were formulated, which was nothing more than not to give up Henan Yin as much as possible.
As a guarantee, Liu Tao gave Cao Cao more than ten scrolls, basically all of which were first-level scrolls, just two Heavenly Armor Scrolls, a little more advanced. There's no way to give too much, and the mana isn't enough to make that much.
After arranging these, Liu Tao took the soldiers, horses, grain and grass, and slaughtered the past towards the west.
Unlike when he came, all the foot soldiers had been left behind by Cao Cao. All that was taken away were cavalry. Even if it is not a cavalry, such as Liu Gebu, it is also equipped with horses to improve mobility.
The amount of grain is about five days' long, and the goal is naturally to push all the way sideways and then get supplies in the locality. The real baggage troops will follow later, and when the time comes, they will naturally give places and replenish food.
Naturally, the 'acceleration technique' is also inevitable, with the 'explorer's leather boots', it is also an easy thing to travel 100 miles a day, and the extreme one, 150 miles a day, is not a big problem!
The biggest problem is probably the inner thigh of the cavalry, which is estimated to suffer a little, and it is a big deal to regenerate vitality and continue to live the next day!
"Right Virtuous King, I didn't need to use you before, but now this time, I expect you to show more!" On the march, Liu Tao came to Hu Chuquan and said to him.
"This is a natural ......" Hu Chuquan hurriedly responded, mixed up to now, he can understand that Liu Tao is a disciple of the immortal family, protected by gods and demons, no wonder the battle is so horizontal, it is indeed the capital of Heng.
Liu Tao is so fierce, if he doesn't behave well, this guy is unhappy, and he uses the excuse of re-sending troops to recruit the Southern Xiongnu, and he doesn't know how many people will die, he can't afford to provoke it, he can't afford to provoke it......
From Luoyang to the west, the first to enter is not Jingzhaoyin, but Hongnong County, and at the same time, from the west of Huangchi County, is where Hangu Pass is located.
The area around Hangu Pass is surrounded by the remnants of the Qinling Mountains, and at the same time there is the Yellow River flowing through, so although the Yellow River is Hedong County, the two counties are blocked by the continuous mountains and the Yellow River.
It also means that if you can't beat Hangu Pass to the west, the passage by land will be blocked. Either you can only go east of the river, and then find a boat to cross the river, and it is difficult to say whether there will be an enemy counterattack during this period.
After all, in the north, there are really few people who are good at water warfare, and others can easily block their own attacks by counterattacking with stones or rockets on the river bank.
Relative...... The previous county orders of Hanguguan were quite cowardly, and I heard that Liu Tao led the army to ask for Dong. The county commander immediately surrendered without saying a word, and even took out grain, grass, wine and meat to reward the crusading army.
Liu Tao confirmed it a few times, there is no problem, but it is also crooked: they all plan to have a good fight, but one or two surrender without a fight, and the atmosphere can't be stirred up!
"Is Dong Jun so cowardly?" Liu Tao complained directly at dinner, "Lao Tzu brought 5,000 soldiers and horses over, and they were all cavalry, so he didn't even have the courage to go out of the customs for a decisive battle?"
Is there no one in the Dong family? Dong Zhuo was killed by Lao Tzu, so no one plans to avenge him?! ”
"When, can you get drunk when you drink soup?" Xun Yu asked cautiously.
"The lord belongs to the one who fights more battles, the stronger his strength, the other party is not big, and he can't become stronger, which is not a complaint." Xin Bi replied in a low voice, "It's basically just whining, there's no problem, just don't provoke him......"
