Chapter 468: A Bunch of Rats
Zhang Jie said with a smile: If Nanyang wants to lose it, it will be lost! Send someone to tell the Tibetan tyrant that if the other party comes to attack, he will give up Nanyang. Withdraw to Xu County!
Tian Fengdao: Lord, what's wrong with you? If you give up Nanyang and let Liu Qi and others occupy Wancheng, it will be difficult to capture it in the future! Wancheng is strong, and it will be difficult to recapture it if you want to recapture it.
Li Rudao: Lord, what are you waiting for? Wait a minute!
Zhang Jie smiled: Lonely waiting for the weather to turn cold. Yuan Hao, Wen You, you are northerners and are not familiar with the south. It's only the end of August, and it's still hot. If we send troops now, our northern soldiers will arrive in Jingzhou. Jingzhou is very hot and humid, it is easy to get sick, and it is easy to get plague. When the time comes, it will collapse without a fight.
{In history, Cao Cao was defeated like this, the fire on Chibi actually didn't burn a few people, most of them were plagues, and later generations actually had infectious influenzas, or malaria.} In the absence of antibiotics, it is difficult to cure. Jiangxia {Wuhan} is known as a furnace in later generations}
If you think about it again, most of our soldiers are not water-based, and it is easy to drown if they fall into the river. And Jiangdong, Jingzhou soldiers, all know how to be watery, and they are alive and kicking when they fall into the water and swim up. But what if it's winter?
Even if they can swim in the water, they will freeze to death. In this way, the strength of the southern soldiers is gone. And our northern soldiers are more hardy than the southern soldiers, and there will be no plague in winter, so we can fight with confidence.
Also, we have a lot of horses, if there is not enough food and grass. You can also kill horses and eat meat. Horse meat does not go bad in the winter.
Therefore, if it is not a cold day, Lone will never send troops. Liu Qi wants to occupy Nanyang, so give it to him! Our goal is Xiangyang. Once Xiangyang is captured, Jingzhou will also take half of it.
Besides, Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu can go to the Central Plains to meet us, and they can't ask for it! I was able to go and play hide and seek with them in the ravines of the south.
What Jie is afraid of is that they will not come to Nanyang, if they send heavy troops to Nanyang, Lone will send cavalry to attack Xiangyang, and send troops to surround Nanyang, and then cut off its grain route. Then they don't want to go back to Koto again.
Li Rudao: It turns out that the lord has a plan, so I'll say it. How could the lord allow his three parties to gather troops and horses, and ignore it! It turned out that he had already made up his mind.
Zhang Jie said: Okay, let's talk about something else! He took out a few copper coins and gave them to the two of them, and said, "What do you think of this money?"
Tian Feng took the money and looked at it for a while, touched it again, and said: Why is this money so smooth.
This is the first currency issued by our Great Wei.
It is also called "Kaiyuan Tongbao". One is equal to a five-baht coin of the original Dahan. In the future, it will fully replace the Dahan and his coins. These are silver coins, each of which is exchanged for a hundred copper coins. These are gold coins, each for a thousand coins.
What do you think? What do you guys think? Zhang Jie asked!
Li Rudao: The five baht money is really enough, and the money itself is exquisite. It will definitely be liked by the people.
It's just silver coins, gold coins, I'm afraid it's difficult to promote. After all, it's a new thing, and it hasn't been done before.
Yes, although it is difficult, it can be promoted slowly. First of all, let our officials use silver coins and gold coins to distribute them, but also use some copper coins.
In this way, if the court officials use it first, the people will use it. It was also necessary to have local officials post notices in the city to introduce the three coins to the people. Eliminate misunderstandings and let people use them with confidence. You have to come up with a plan for this.
Promise! Tian Feng replied!
And Liu Qi, Zhuge Liang and others led the troops to Xinye. But the news can be sent in detail. Zhang Jie didn't take any action, as if he didn't care about the situation in Jingzhou at all.
Zhou Yudao: What are the actions of Wancheng Tibetan tyrants? Have you increased your troops?
Humanitarian: No, there is still no increase in troops as before.
Now everyone is also a little suspicious. Zhang Jie: What is this for? Why didn't there be any reaction at all?
Liu Qi said: Zhang Jie has a fine work in Jingzhou, when the king's father died, the news reached Luoyang the next day. Now that nearly 200,000 troops have gathered, it is impossible for Zhang Jie not to know. Now that Zhang Jie pretends to ignore it, will there be any conspiracy?
Everyone stopped talking, and it was obvious that this was not normal.
Gan Ning said: What kind of conspiracy does he care? Let's continue to go north, take Nanyang first, and then hit Luoyang. What else is there to discuss? Isn't Zhang Jie coming to Jingzhou, let's just wait?
Lu Su said: No, Zhang Jie has more cavalry, there are many plains in the Wancheng area, if we fight in the plains, it will be very unfavorable to us. Let's enter Wancheng, if Zhang Jie sends a large force of cavalry to cut off my food and grass. It's time to die!
Liu Qidao: Mr. Kong Ming, what do you think?
Zhuge Liang said: Zi Jing is reasonable. Let's go to Nanyang to fight Zhang Jie, the grain road may be cut off, and the most important thing is that we are short of horses. The plains are not in our favor.
Zhang Jie has not gathered troops and horses yet, and it is precisely because Zhang Jie has many cavalry, from Hebei and other places to Luoyang, if it is cavalry, it will arrive in two or three days. So Zhang Jie is not in a hurry.
Liu Qi said: In this case, let's wait here for a few days!
A few days later, he sent someone to report it. Zhang Jie still didn't move at all, until Luoyang was replacing the new money, and took a new five-baht coin "Kaiyuan Tongbao" and brought it to Liu Qi.
Liu Qi looked at it and said, "Strange, why is this money so smooth?" And the handwriting is clearer. This Zhang Jie's craftsman is really strong in money-making skills.
Everyone looked at each other and thought it was really good.
But Cai Mao said: "King, the minister plans to return to Xiangyang tomorrow." Come back later.
Liu Qi said: General Cai, why is this?
Cai Mao said: Jingzhou formed an alliance with them to fight Zhang Jie, not to invite them to waste food. Today, there are less than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Nanyang. Our nearly 200,000 troops did not dare to take a single step forward in Xinye. It simply made the world laugh.
Zhang Jie is still in Luoyang, and he didn't take a step to scare you to take a step forward. If Zhang Jie comes, I'm afraid he will escape faster than a rabbit! If you are ashamed to be with you, it is better to go back to Xiangyang and have a good night's sleep. A bunch of rat ears.
Gan Ning was furious, Cai Mao, do you dare to humiliate someone? Looking for death?
Huang Zhong, who was beside Cai Mao, also stood up and said: You are so angry? Do you dare to try it?
Huang Zhong is only in his fifties now, and Gan Ning is not his opponent yet.
Since Zhang Jie told Cai Shi to let Cai Mao show favor to Huang Zhong, Cai Mao began to woo Huang Zhong. Now the effect is still obvious. Huang Zhong has the ability, although he is a general, but he cannot be reused. Now Cai Mao let him lead the army. Thank you, of course, Cai Mao.
Liu Qi said: Okay, don't make any noise, General Cai wants to go back to Xiangyang, rest for a few days before coming. Say hello to my mother for me.
Everyone made Cai Mao blush. Since it was Guan Yu, he was already blushing. But the qi cultivation work is good, so I didn't make a sound.
Liu Qi also complained in his heart, so many people and horses, and the consumption is huge every day, this is all eating him Jingzhou! Who doesn't feel distressed! 17
