After Yuan Yao was called King Zhong, he took Zang Hong as the great Honglu, and this Dahonglu was the official position in charge of protocol affairs, which was equivalent to the Ministry of Rites in the Six Ministries and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in later generations. To put it simply, it is an official position dedicated to foreign affairs.

Zang Hong had a reputation before, and he was not suppressed after surrendering to Yuan Shu, and now he is one of the nine kings under Yuan Yao, and he can be regarded as getting what he wants.

After Zang Hong arrived, Yuan Yao asked Pang Tong to inform Zang Hong of his own plan, this Zang Ba was not a person who did not know soldiers, and even fought with Yuan Yao on the battlefield in the early days, and later surrendered after being defeated by Yuan Yao.

After Pang Tong finished speaking, Yuan Yao looked at Zang Hong before he said: "Ziyuan, now we need to send envoys to Yan Guo and Zhao Guo to persuade Yuan Tan and Lu Bu to join forces with us, who are your subordinates?" ”

This envoy is extremely important, representing the face of the country, and this time in order to be able to win Liu Bei, there is no room for error, so these two envoys are very important.

After thinking for a moment, Zang Hong raised his head, looked at Yuan Yao, and said, "King, I don't know if you need two envoys, one for Zhao and one for Yan?" ”

Yuan Yao nodded and said, "Ziyuan, as a great Honglu, you should have someone under you, two messengers, Zhuge Jin can be one of them, as for the other person, it's up to you." ”

Although Yuan Yao has the support of the family, there is no shortage of backbone talents, but this time the envoy Zhao and Yan are very important, and they have to be cautious, so Yuan Yao is the one who brought Zang Hong in.

Sure enough, after thinking for a while, Zang Hong looked up at Yuan Yao and said, "King, Weichen recommends a person who can be responsible for this important task." ”

"Oh, who?"

"This person is from Yanzhou, named Yi, the word machine uncle, when Liu Biao was still alive, Yi went to Jingzhou to attach to Liu Biao, but it was not allowed to be reused, after Liu Biao died, this person was accepted by Lord Hu, and then I spent a lot of effort to get this person from Lord Hu."

"I'm from Iraq?" Yuan Yao has heard of this name, the current Yuan Yao is a powerhouse in the Xuan Transformation Realm, his memory is very strong, and some things in his previous life, Yuan Yao now remembers them very clearly, especially related to this era.

After Liu Bei pacified Yizhou, the status of Yi was second only to Jian Yong, Sun Qian and others, and later, Yi also compiled "Shu Ke" with Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng, Liu Ba, Li Yan and others.

Look at who they are, Zhuge Liang and Li Yan won't say much, Liu Bei's ministers of Tuogu, and Fa Zheng and Liu Ba are also important ministers who Liu Bei subdued after taking Yizhou, and they are all talented and scheming. It's a pity that both of them died early, so in the later period of the Three Kingdoms, only Zhuge Liang, Wei Yan and others in Shu Han were there to support the scene.

Yi, this is a talent, if he comes out, there should be no problem.

"Okay, Ziyuan, you prepare, let Zhuge Jin and Yi set off in three days, Zhuge Jin will go to Zhao State, Yi will go to Yan State, Shi'an, you can arrange the people of Heiyue Tower, protect Zhuge Jin and Yi Yuan, and don't let the two of them have an accident."

"Wechen understands!"

Li Ye replied respectfully, Yuan Yao also looked at the sand table, and began to measure it in his heart, as for Zang Hong, after determining the candidate for the envoy, he went down to prepare. Although Zang Hong is one of the Jiuqing, what Yuan Yao wants to do today is related to the military, and he, the Jiuqing, will deal with government affairs at most, so it is better not to stay in Qifeng Hall for a long time.

There are some things that you can't pretend not to know when you see them.

And Yuan Yao didn't care about Zang Hong's departure, but continued to discuss the specific situation of the Battle of Xuzhou with Pang Tong and Li Ye.

Xuzhou, now Gao Cang is in charge, and the Third Army has 50,000 soldiers and horses, but if you want to be sure, these 50,000 soldiers and horses seem to be a little insufficient. However, fortunately, after Yuan Yao became king, the sixth, seventh, and eighth legions were newly formed, and the transfer of two legions should be enough.

"Transfer Zhang He's Seventh Army and Gao Lan's Eighth Army Corps, 60,000 soldiers and horses are counted as Gao Cang's Third Army, a total of 110,000 troops, which should be enough. If it weren't for the fear that Cao Cao would make a move, it would be necessary to leave some soldiers and horses on guard, and put Chen Zhi's Sixth Army in Xuzhou, and the certainty would be even greater. ”

"My lord, Liu Bei is in Xuzhou is Guan Hai, Wu Anguo and Mi Zhu, there are only 40,000 soldiers and horses, it stands to reason that General Gao Cang's third army can be dealt with, even if it is for insurance, at most the seventh or eighth army will be transferred, why do you want to get both legions."

Facing Pang Tong's doubts, Yuan Yao smiled and said: "Shiyuan, I know what you're worried about, but you don't need to worry so much at all, although the backbone of the Seventh and Eighth Legions is Zhang He Gaoran's old department, but Zhang He Gaolan and the two of them, you have to believe them." Moreover, the death of my uncle back then was inseparable from Liu Bei, and transferring Zhang He and Gao Ran over was also a wish of theirs. ”

Pang Tong was actually a little uneasy about Zhang He and Gao Lan, but Yuan Yao said so, what else could he say.

In this way, on the battlefield of Xuzhou, the Zhongguo side released three legions with a total of 110,000 troops, and it was in a crushing situation in terms of the number of troops.

"Lord, the known powerhouses of the Xuanyan Realm under Liu Bei are Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun, Tai Shici should not be far from this realm, do you need to mobilize some more powerhouses." Pang Tong asked.

Yuan Yao shook his head and said: "Shiyuan, you don't have to worry, once Yan and Zhao join forces with us, then Chen Xiao and Lu Yi of Yan will definitely send one person, Yuan Chuan and Lu Bu of Zhao are not weak, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao are also fierce generals, at this time, Liu Bei can send at most one person to Xuzhou." Moreover, Yuanfei's cultivation is not stagnant, he is one step faster than Xingba and Wushuang, and he has entered the Xuan Transformation Realm first. ”

Hearing the news that Gao Cang had entered the Xuan Change Realm, everyone was a little surprised, after all, although Gao Cang was one of the eight major legion generals under Yuan Yao's command, but compared with the other four major legion generals in the original five major legions, Gao Cang was really a little low-key, so low-key that Pang Tong and the others did not know Gao Cang very well.

"Chen Lin, draft the order, and order Zhang He and Gao Ran to immediately prepare for war and be ready to attack at any time."

Chen Lin, who had been waiting for the order in the corner of the Qifeng Palace, also responded at this moment, and then began to splash ink and draft the order.
