Wen Chou took the document and handed a copy to the generals present.

"Here's my training plan, you all see. If there are different opinions, they can be put forward in time, and we will discuss again. Yuan Xi looked at the generals present. They all came from all over the world. There were generals from Ji, He, You, Joseon, and Goguryeo, and some of them he didn't know. The most familiar is Liu Yi, the general of Beiping. He was the general of the original Gongsun Du, and was later persuaded by Cui Yan to surrender. Now he led 10,000 spearmen to Wei County to participate in the training.

Zhang Jaw was also present, and after reading the training plan, he said: "The master's training plan is much softer than before, and the general agrees with it very much." It's just that... The lord said in the plan that when training, you should pay attention to your appearance and your movements should be uniform. , the last general doesn't understand very well, isn't this a superficial effort? The soldiers all pay attention to appearance, how can they fight and have combat effectiveness? ”

"General Zhang asked a good question." Yuan Xi glanced at everyone and said, "I asked for the unity of appearance and movement during training, in order to run in the garrisons of various places and form a mutual tacit understanding..." ”

"Most of the 140,000 troops now assembled in Wei County are veterans, especially the 10,000 spearmen under the command of General Liu Yi. For them, there is no need for deliberate training, just cooperation with other armies. ”

"You have to pay special attention to this when you train. It must be a joint operation. ”

"The lord said well, the last general understands." Open the jaw to relieve doubts.

"General Zhang, I'll hand over the 140,000 troops to you, you can't let me down." Yuan Xi entrusted Zhang Jaw with an important task in front of the generals of various armies.

"The lord is saying... By the last general as the commander-in-chief of the armies? "Zhang Jaw was very surprised.

The generals present also looked at Zhang Jaw in unison.

If it were someone else, they would still be fighting.

Zhang Jaw is a famous general in Hebei, ten years ago he was one of the most outstanding generals under the command of Yuan Shao, and he served as the commander of various armies, who is still qualified to compete?

"Who else but you are suitable?" Yuan Xi asked with a smile.

"The end will definitely live up to the high expectations of the lord." Zhang Jaw was excited, and got up to say.

"Sit down."

Yuan Xi pressed his hand and continued: "This training camp has two main purposes. The first is to run in the garrisons in various localities to form combat effectiveness. The second is to annex Yuan Tan's Qingzhou next year. You should know that Qingzhou was originally the territory of the ancestors, and it was forcibly occupied by Yuan Tan and acted against the sky. I have to take it back! First, live up to the trust of his father and ensure the integrity of the land he had. Second, in the northeast of Cao Cao, a nail was pierced, and Gao Lan's 100,000 troops were united to form a flanking attack on the six counties of Xuzhou. Therefore, Qingzhou must be conquered, and the timing of the generals' contributions should also be at this time. ”

"I would like to serve the Lord..."

The generals stood up and shouted.

"There have been two things that have been particularly interesting recently..." Yuan Xi pressed his hand again and motioned for the generals to sit down: "Before the meeting, I received two messages. First, Yuan Tan of Qingzhou has led his army into Dongpingling to guard the plains. Second, Cao Cao had given up attacking Jingnan, retreated to Xuchang, and transferred all the troops of the Central Plains states to Yanzhou, about 250,000. What does this mean? ”

Zhang Jaw said: "Are they worried, the lord is attacking? After all, all of our main forces are in the area of Wei County and Puyang, which poses a great threat to them. ”

"Hahaha... That's right. I really didn't expect that my unintentional move would have such an effect. The frightened Cao Cao didn't even dare to fight the battle of Jingnan, and hurriedly retreated to the Central Plains. Yuan Xi nodded with a smile and said, "Since this is the case, we can't waste the opportunity." Hurry up and send someone to Linxiang to form an alliance with Liu Bei. When we attack Cao Cao, ask him to send troops with us to flank Cao Cao. ”

"The last general thinks that Mr. Guo Tu is the most suitable." Jaw open.

"Just him. Wait a minute, get my message across. Yuan Xi said.

"No."

The meeting ended quickly.

Yuan Xi took the open jaw back to stab Shifu.

"Junyi, I originally planned for you to teach Zhuo'er, but now it seems that you don't have that time, it's a pity."

"General Wen Chou's martial arts, and the last general, between the middle and the second, he taught the little son, the same." Zhang Jaw had long known that Yuan Xi had made Wen Chou Yuan Zhuo's teacher.

He also felt very sorry for this.

But Yuan Xi's repeated reuse of him also made him no longer worry about Professor Yuan Zhuo.

"Hmm."

After entering the inner hall, Yuan Xi handed Zhang Jaw a list and said, "This is the information I sorted out, detailing the generals of each army, you can take it back and take a good look." Also, the war with Yuan Tan was in June. Now that February has passed, and there are still four months to go, the time is very short, and I hope that all the armies will step up the training and form a tacit understanding of the battle before June. ”

"Yes."

Zhang Jaw once again solemnly stated: "Don't worry, the lord will definitely complete the task!" ”

"With you in the lead, I am relieved."

Zhang Jaw was one of the earliest generals to follow him, and Yuan Xi trusted him in addition to Yan Liang and Wen Chou in his heart. To be precise, he trusts more than Yan Liang and Wen Chou.

......................

The day of the conquest of Yuan Tan was approaching, and Yuan Tan also felt the crisis, and on the one hand, he sent people to contact Cao Cao, hoping to get Cao Cao's support. When Yuan Xi attacked Qingzhou, he flanked Hebei and pinned it down. On the other hand, he also began to think about strengthening his own strength.

How to enhance it?

He thought about it and was ready to learn from Yuan Xi and boost Qingzhou's economy. With money, he could buy more weapons, armor, equipment, warships, grain and land, and even hit Hebei's economy hard, leaving Yuan Xi with no time to go on the expedition.

So the question is, how to learn?

Like Yuan Xi, make a currency in exchange for five baht in the hands of the people? This is the quickest way to collect money, but it also takes a lot of risk.

Seeing that the Hebei army in Wei County was eyeing Qingzhou, Yuan Tan couldn't take care of the risk.

He bought a large amount of Xi paper from Hebei, and in just half a month, he made more than 300 million currencies and promoted it to the people of Qingzhou. At the same time, he contacted Sun Quan in Jiangdong and Cao Cao in Yanzhou to prepare to purchase warships and equipment and form a naval army and an army of weapons.

Yuan Xi soon received the news.

Invite frustration.

"Mr. Fu, Yuan Tan is going to issue his own currency, do you know?" Yuan Xi asked.

"The minister already knows, but the minister thinks that the lord has no need to worry. Think about it, how much effort did we put into promoting? Yuan Tan kills chickens and takes eggs, and he will never succeed in his eagerness for quick success. Frustrated with his beard under his forehead, he smiled, "Maybe... He also plays with fire and burns himself. For thousands of years, this has promoted currency, but few people have succeeded, and I really don't believe that Yuan Tan has this ability. ”
