Chapter 541: Striking the Grass and Startling the Snake

The heavy snow in the north has brought a lot of blows to Liu Yi's subordinates, especially in Youzhou, the situation of farmland has been very unoptimistic, and the people have collapsed due to the heavy pressure of snow on their houses, resulting in more than 1,000 casualties. And Liu Yi and Xi Zhicai had dinner in a hurry at this time, and then they had to make detailed plans for Xu Huanglong's camp to advance into Qingzhou, although this heavy snow gave Liu Yi a lot of pressure, but in his heart, he did not want to have an impact on the military deployment because of this matter, and now he can only take care of both fronts.

"Gongming, you can get a bowl of this, the old ginseng that Xingba brought back when he was crusading against Liaodong is a big supplement at this time, Ziping, you also have a share." After the meal was finished, another waiter held a big bowl of ginseng soup, Liu Yi personally served a bowl for Xi Zhicai, and then said to Xu Huang and Guan Hai, these ginseng are all very precious after a certain year, if it weren't for the urgency of the two lines this time, it would take a lot of effort to take out the only two left, Liu Yi would not have taken it out.

Xi Zhicai, Xu Huang, and the three of them were not too polite with the lord, they took the ginseng soup and drank it, these were also given to them by Gan Ning back then, and Liu Yi even divided the best of them with the three military advisors, and they knew in their hearts that the lord had always been generous and generous, and they would not refuse.

"Gongming, under such heavy snowfall, your Longxiang battalion can still be extremely heavy as scheduled, it is not easy, what is the morale of the army now, then Ju Yuanbo is competent for your deputy?" The four of them drank ginseng soup around Xi Zhicai's case, only to feel a warm current rising in their chests, this old mountain ginseng is indeed extraordinary, that is, Xi Zhicai has been quite tired recently, and he feels that his spirit has recovered a lot at this time, and Liu Yi did not forget to ask Xu Huang while drinking, several generals in Jizhou are now Yan Liangwen and Chou are both in the Zhao Yun Iron Cavalry Camp, and Gao Ran Ju Yi is the deputy commander of the second battalion of Huwei Longxiang, Zhang He praised Gao Ranzhi for his ability at the last meeting of the racecourse, and Liu Yi also wanted to know how Ju Yi was in the Longxiang camp?

"The soldiers of the Longxiang battalion are well-trained on weekdays, how can they worry about the lord at this moment, General Ju is also worthy of his reputation, and now Huang has allocated five thousand soldiers to him, and all the needs are met, Yuan Boyan and there are two more months to train the halberd warriors, this person is proficient in the art of war, and he is indeed a good helper, and he is also very grateful to the lord for his words!" When it comes to the Longxiang camp, Xu Huang can't hide it on his face, he has a complacent look, this is the elite soldiers he brought out single-handedly, even if the heavy snow closes the road, it can't stop them from assembling on schedule, as for Ju Yi, it is also good to get along with him during this time, after a period of observation, Xu Huang can rest assured that some of the soldiers will be handed over to him.

"Well, I have always been trustworthy with Gongming with troops, this time you can have a lot of opinions on letting you go to Qingzhou, and now Ju Yi can help you wholeheartedly, this trip to Beihai Gongming should have achievements, and now Fengxiao and his party have just crossed the Yellow River, I have the heart to let Xu Yuanzhi go with you, and everything can also have a plan!" Liu Yi said first, Gao Ran Juyi will never be used as Xu Zhang's deputy for a long time, leading an army alone can give full play to the talents of the two, of course, their loyalty to Liu Yi still needs time to be considered, as for the arrangement of Xu Shu, Liu Yi only thought of it, and when he spoke, he specially asked Xi Zhicai with his eyes, and saw that he also nodded slightly before he said, Xu Huang is calm and alert, good at military aircraft, and is a general's talent, plus Xu Shu, a resourceful person, should complement each other!

"Jun Yi has always only seen the benefits of others in his eyes, why didn't he say that the lord of the attack several times was the first battle for his tiger guard battalion? Akira is too lazy to entangle with him more! Mr. Xu previously followed the two generals to attack Jigu to establish miraculous feats, and the two generals mentioned it was also highly praised, called a scheming man, if he came to the Longxiang camp, Huang will treat the above guests as a gift, and do more to discuss everything to live up to the trust of the lord! Listening to Liu Yi talk about Zhang He's words, Xu Huang was quite disdainful, the two of them are usually confidants of each other, but this military merit is not tolerated at all, Xu Huang knows Zhang He's temperament at all, and he doesn't go to his heart at all, as for his original words of the state, it is not so, "What the lord values as long as it is a person can be useful!" This is what Xu Huang said at the time, he has always respected Liu Yi with the vision of knowing people, and Xu Shu assisted Gan Ning in the battle of Jizhou and proved his strength, of course he will not have any objections.

"That's great, I'll pass the book and Fengxiao, let Yuan Zhi go to Beihai to meet you, now this is the Ziyi Liaodong camp station, Gongming to explore Xuzhou in detail after arrival, ready to enter here at any time to fight, Liu Xuande has Langya and other counties of the terrain presented, I and the military division also prepared a for you, this time if you march into Xuzhou, the enemy of Gongming is Cao Cao, Yanzhou you have fought with it, you must not have the slightest light enemy! Tomorrow morning, you will lead the army to set off, this time it snows heavily, Ji Ming's mule and horse team has to transport supplies to various places, and can no longer help you, but even so, the Longxiang battalion will rush to Beihai according to the date agreed before! Liu Yi drank all the ginseng soup in the bowl at this time, and after putting it down, he said, although without the assistance of the mule and horse team would slow down the march of the Longxiang battalion, he had full confidence in Xu Huang and his men.

"The lord can rest assured that Huang will not miss the time, this battle of Xuzhou will be regarded as Cao Cao's personal arrival, and the Longxiang camp will also be camped step by step, and it will never be allowed to take advantage of it!" Xu Huang said firmly, the Longxiang battalion is famous for its long-distance travel, and the training on weekdays is even more difficult, and he also knows that the mule and horse team plays a great role in Youzhou at this time, so he will not let the lord worry about it without this help! As the commander of an army, Gongming also has his own judgment on the possible big war in Xuzhou, in his opinion, Cao Cao will not come here in person, at most all the way to the division, he will try to annihilate them all, if Cao Cao personally leads the army to come, he will also be cautious, first make him invincible before saying anything else.

"Degong Ming said this, I have no worries all the way to Xuzhou, and after arriving in Xuzhou, I need to strictly enforce military discipline, and I must not disturb the people, and the law of our army's field tax and service can also be preached here." Liu Yi said happily when he heard this, Gongming does have the vision of the main general, and he sees the situation very accurately, and he also believes that Cao Cao will not personally lead the army to attack Xuzhou, as for the matter of promoting the annexation of the states is a kind of propaganda offensive, although it is not conspicuous here, the role it may play is huge, after all, once the Longxiang camp enters Xuzhou, Liu Yi does not have the idea of letting them come back, can he Liu Langsheng eat it and spit it it out? At this time, he even thought about the candidate for the Xuzhou Thorn History, which was the second brother Gan Ning!

"After Gongming arrived in Beihai, he asked Ziyi to leave General Zangba's Taishan battalion to stay in Beihai, and also for you to respond later, after the Longxiang battalion marched into Xuzhou, it should be as close as possible to Qingzhou, although it is to pay attention to this kind of movement! Lord, I can pass on a letter to the three generals and Feng Xiaowenhe, so that General Taishi can lead the Liaobei Pingying into Qingzhou, and now the Qingzhou part of Yuan Shao is still nominally on our side, Ziyi will only take back these places, but there is no need to fight with Cao Cao, if you encounter resistance, you should report immediately, and it is more secure to have him and Gongming to echo each other. Xi Zhicai said, that day Liu Yi had promised Zang Ba to let him lead an army alone, and the prisoners of war of the Jizhou Army gave him priority to replenish a lot, called Taishan Battalion, Zang Ba felt the virtue of the lord and was willing to live under Tai Shi Ci, this person is quite talented, and it is appropriate to use it to sit in Beihai for Xu Huang to fall, as for the march of the Beiping camp is more of a temptation for Cao Cao, don't you press the army, now I will take the initiative to attack!

"Well, the words of the military advisor are very true, so I can sit and watch Cao Mengde react and act again, but the Beiping battalion of a single Ziyi is inevitably weak, and I am afraid that the enemy army will take advantage of it, and the Liaodong battalion of Jingfang should not be moved lightly if it wants to sit in Jizhou, and it can be discussed with Zilong Feng Xiaowen and others to use more than 10,000 people of the original Jizhou cavalry in the hands of Yan Shiping as Ziyi's arm help, and then let Feng Xiaowen and one of them go with him, which can better absorb the effect of scaring the snake, and now Liu is not suitable to start a war with Meng De, but it is okay to scare him." Liu Yi heard the words and thought for a moment before he said again, after the battle of Jizhou, all battalions were extremely damaged, the second battalion of Northeast Liaoning has not returned to the full state before the war, and Tai Shici's Beiping battalion is only more than 30,000 people at this time, so I am afraid that the momentum is insufficient, if Yan Liang's more than 10,000 cavalry and Guo Jia or Jia Xu are in charge, it is enough for Cao Cao to pay attention to it, it is a way to fight the grass and scare the snake.

"The lord is thoughtful, so he acted accordingly, Feng Xiaogang returned from Jingxiang, this trip is still handed over to Wenhe, but this matter still needs to get a response from Jizhou before it can be determined!" Xi Zhicai also felt that Liu Yi's addition could make the trip more momentum and quite safe, but Zhao Yun and Jia Xu were in Jizhou and had a better understanding of the enemy's situation, and their opinions should be taken seriously enough.

"What Zhicai said is that not only Jizhou, but Zicai also has to make more preparations, when our army fought fiercely with Yuan Shao, Brother Meng De did not cause me much trouble, and now Yi can't make him too comfortable, the edict appointing Liu Bei as the assassin of Yangzhou has been prepared, I think the envoy can go tomorrow, he and Sun Ce are afraid that they will not be able to do it until the beginning of spring, so they will make a strong voice." Liu Yi naturally recognized the words of Xi Zhicai, Liu Bei, as a relative of the Han family, agreed with Liu Xie very much for his position as the assassin of Yangzhou, which saved Liu Yi a lot of tongues, as for Cao Cao's last time he sent troops to help Yuan Shao, he has always remembered that even if he can't fight with him, he will keep him busy. In addition to Sizhou, Liu Yi still has preparations, but that will have to wait until Pang Tong returns.

"In this battle of Yangzhou, Guan Yunchang and Zhang Yide are still eye-catching, and Sun Ce is helpless for a while with the help of Zhou Yu. Yuanlong is also indispensable, Liu Xuande is also regarded as one more talent, I hope that the name of Yangzhou Thorn History can make it go further, hehe, listen to the lord talk about Zicai, think about it has not seen each other for almost two years, but it is a tight concern, but Sizhou is a heavy land, but Zicai needs to sit in the town to ensure that nothing goes wrong. "Liu Yi and Xi Zhicai have maintained a very high level of attention to the battle of Yangzhou, and Liu Bei has not concealed it, so both of them know very well, and Zhang Hu has not seen each other for a long time since he went to Sizhou, and Xi Zhicai, who is a friend, can't help but be worried!
