Chapter 804: Northern Expedition

"Please also ask Xu to join the army to speak clearly." Although Wei Yan was not very polite on his lips, his body leaned slightly sideways, which was closer to Xu Shu.

When Guo Jia was the military advisor of the Northern Legion, he taught Wei Yan a lot of words and deeds, and he couldn't change Guan Yu, so Guo Jia turned his mind to Wei Yan, who was very similar to Guan Yu, in order to succeed in the transformation.

Now it is obvious that there have been some results, although Wei Yan is still a little arrogant, but he is no longer as easy to offend people as before, on the contrary, it is precisely because of this temper that he can say it directly, a top strategist like Xu Shu who was born from a hooligan is more adaptable.

"Hit here." Xu Shu casually took out the map from the pocket of Wei Yan's horse, pointed to one place and said.

"Qinghe?" Wei Yan looked at Xu Shu puzzled and said, "Our goal is to capture Xuanyuan Ding in Yecheng, Wei County, and we won't pass through here." ”

"It's not a question of passing through or not passing, didn't you pay attention to what the lord said at the time?" Xu Shu asked calmly, seeing that Wei Yan was still a little puzzled, "We have the right to fight with the Jizhou army." ”

"But what the lord said is that when we encounter the Jizhou army, we will judge how to fight for ourselves." Wei Yan said with a frown.

"Wrong, we are the vanguard, the vanguard itself is the power to judge the battle independently, the lord asked me to discuss with you, in essence, it is to give us the power to make arbitrary decisions, which is why General Guan wants to be the front army." Xu Shu shook his head slightly and denied Wei Yan's answer, then looked at the other party and said.

"But that's just your guess." Guan Ping interjected at this time.

"Speculation does have a certain component, but I have already opened my words, and whether I believe it or not depends on the decision of the two." Xu Shu's calm eyes slid over the two of them with almost no waves, as if what they said before had not happened at all.

"Good. Let's go to Qinghe! Wei Yan's decisiveness was obviously stronger than Guan Ping's, and he didn't hesitate at all after Xu Shu said this. I made up my mind directly, and although I went to the main battlefield, although meritorious service is indispensable. But you can only think about great achievements, but if you go to open up a battlefield, as long as you win, it is easy to say.

"Brother Wei!" Guan Ping was stunned and opened his mouth to panic, this has deviated from their established strategy.

"What Xu Senjun said is very reasonable, does Tan Zhi want to live under the glory of his father all the time?" Wei Yan looked sideways at Guan Ping and asked.

"But isn't this contrary to the established strategy of the lord?" Guan Ping frowned and said, but it was obvious that he had been shaken, but because Guan Yu's discipline had a high degree of obedience to military orders.

"No, we didn't go against the strategy." Xu Shu shook his head and said. "The words of the lord have been telling us one thing, that is, we have the right to decide, and we also have the right to go to war."

"......" Guan Ping was silent, but there was obviously some struggle in his heart, and after a long time, he reached out and patted Wei Yan's shoulder, "I did it with you, and if something happens at that time, it will be my mine, and my father will be whipped ten lashes at most!" ”

"If you get ten lashes, I'm going to be the same." Wei Yan felt a toothache. Guan Yu whipped the two of them with a whip, and it was no joke, and they were absolutely screaming when they started to beat them.

"Don't worry, I won't let you be so miserable." Xu Shuyun said lightly, looking at the speed at which the two of them made up their minds. Originally, Xu Shu, who was only seventy percent sure of Liu Bei's thoughts, suddenly had ninety percent certainty.

[Is it for us to go to Jizhou first to disturb the line of sight, attract Yuan Shao's attention, and hook up with Zang Xuangao in Qingzhou? ] Xu Shu frowned and guessed. However, he was a little unsure where Liu Bei came from, and he and Wei Yan together could rely on such a few people to contain the energy of Yuan Shao, who was fighting with Liu Bei.

If Chen Xi knew Xu Shu's doubts, he would definitely laugh, just because you called Xu Shu Xu Yuanzhi. His name is Wei Yan Wei Wenchang, and that's enough.

Although Guan Ping said that he had some mothers-in-law before making up his mind. But after making up his mind, he broke off that thought, and instead began to mobilize his troops and march towards Qinghe, as for the trouble or something, he looked back and thought about it.

A few hours later, Liu Bei and others, who were still reorganizing their troops in the rear and preparing to leave, received a report from the front that Wei Yan did not take the established official road, but directly turned around and marched to the north.

"Your vision is indeed good." Jia Xu nodded slightly, very satisfied with the information sent, "But the next question is whether Xu Yuanzhi can successfully attract Yuan Shao's attention, and even make Yuan Shao have to consider Yuanzhi's side when fighting us." ”

"Don't worry, my vision will shock you." Chen Xi smiled and said, "He will definitely do better than what you planned, some people are born for this great era." ”

"Alright, let's go!" Liu Bei glanced at Chen Xi and shook his head, roared and drove his horse to take the lead, and then the more than 100,000 troops originally stationed near Mount Tai slowly pulled out of the village, and all the troops turned into a long dragon and marched towards the northwest.

"If more than 100,000 troops march, I'm afraid it will take more than ten days to reach Jizhou, and we also have times when we get sick." Chen Xi drove his horse and looked at Jia Xu with a smile and said, "If you had gathered troops directly in Linyi, there wouldn't have been so much trouble. ”

"Isn't this just to prove that we were prepared the moment we sent our troops, and that our army is very well-organized, although it is completely useless." Jia Xu said calmly, "But if it is directly transferred to Linyi, if I am Yuan Shao, I will definitely not miss this kind of time when there are soldiers and no generals and there is chaos in the organization." ”

"Cut, you think I don't know." Chen Xi pursed his lips and said, "As long as the recruits have never been on the battlefield, there are not enough grassroots generals, and no matter how many there are, they will collapse at the touch of a button." ”

At this time, Jia Xu was already staring at Chen Xi's bilateral stirrups, he felt a little strange before, Chen Xi was not good at riding a horse, and how could he be so stable today, it was really strange enough.

"This thing ......" Jia Xu sighed after staring at the stirrups at Chen Xi's feet for a long time, "Good thing, but it shouldn't appear now, this is probably the treasure you said was used to speed up cavalry." ”

"That's it, it's true that it shouldn't be taken out now, but I don't have to worry about being surrounded by guards like me, in fact, I've ordered a lot of saddles and stirrups to be made." Chen Xi nodded and said.

"After all, this is a large army and I need to ride all the way, so I will try these two things, and when I capture part of Jizhou, I will equip it in large quantities." Chen Xi said with a smile, "With these two things, cavalry can be regarded as the real strongest class. ”

"With these two, the other arms can basically be eliminated, and Wen Ru's assault cavalry tactics can be used, which is the real strongest charging cavalry." Jia Xu nodded and said. (To be continued......)
