Chapter 163: Disparity in Strength
Seeing that no one could think of a good way, Mu Yi could only sigh and say: "If you fight hard, our chances of winning are slim, but a certain will never give up the people, since we can't think of a way at present, then let's rush to the north first, cut down trees and build a pontoon bridge on the Yellow River, and wait for Gao Shun to take the people across the Yellow River and take a shortcut back to Bingzhou, we are chasing Lu Bu, a certain has sent people back to Bingzhou overnight, let Fengxiao lead the army to Yuncheng, at that time, we will launch an attack near Tongguan, and quickly withdraw to Yuncheng after grabbing the materials from Lu Bu, As for the detailed march plan, let's discuss it as we go! ”
"Whoa!"
……
As expected, when Mu Yi and the others arrived at the bank of the Yellow River, Lu Bu had indeed crossed the Yellow River, and as for Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew, they had long been unable to find a trace.
So Mu Yi's march slowed down again, and ordered the soldiers to cut down trees, build rafts, drive wooden stakes, and build pontoon bridges over the Yellow River.
Gao Shun led all the infantry, and at the same time had to take care of the people, so the speed of the march was relatively slow, and he arrived at the Yellow River one day later than Mu Yi.
The crowd gathered firewood and the flame was high, and a large number of young and strong people volunteered to build a pontoon bridge, and in one day they paved a wide road with wood over the Yellow River.
……
And the state, Jinyang.
After two or three days of hurrying, several horses were killed, and people almost collapsed from exhaustion, and finally arrived in Taiyuan to see Guo Jia.
When Guo Jia got the news, a rough outline instantly appeared in his mind, as a top strategist in the Three Kingdoms period, Guo Jia knew the crisis as soon as he thought about it.
At the moment, Guo Jia didn't dare to hesitate at all, and asked people to find Lu Zhi, Jia Xu, Zhang Liao, Wang Sanluo and others to meet with Emperor Shaodi of Han and Empress Dowager He.
said that he was meeting Emperor Han Shaodi in person, but in fact, it was just for others to see, and Mu Yi made a decision, and Emperor Han Shaodi's mother and son had no right to interfere at all.
After a few months of busyness, Guo Jia built a palace in Jinyang for Empress Dowager He's mother and son to live in.
However, the palace built is many times smaller than the Luoyang Imperial Palace. Although the sparrows are small and the palace is smaller, there are still all kinds of places for officials at all levels to work.
Guo Jia told Mu Yi's plan in front of everyone.
Hearing this, the mother and son of Emperor Shao of Han began to be worried, Dong Zhuo's shadow to them was too heavy, even if they were now in Bingzhou, when they heard that Mu Yi was going to snatch millions of people from Dong Zhuo's hands, the little heart was still uncontrollable and beat wildly a few times.
When Lu Zhi heard that Dong Zhuo had burned Luoyang and excavated the imperial tomb, he fell to his knees with a thud and cried bitterly in the direction of Luoyang.
Seeing this, Emperor Shaodi of Han and Empress Dowager He, as well as the civil and military officials present, all knelt down in the direction of Luoyang, whether they were sincere or false, they all wept bitterly and looked sad.
Guo Jia did not say that Mu Yi was ready to snatch supplies from Lu Bu, but only that Mu Yi had saved millions of people, and these millions of people were now homeless, so Guo Jia would personally lead the army to Yuncheng to respond.
Emperor Shaodi of Han heard that Mu Yi had saved millions of people, but he still didn't care in his heart. In his opinion, if there are so many mouths to eat, the state will be poorer in the future.
However, this is Mu Yi's decision, even if Emperor Han Shaodi is unwilling in his heart, he can only nod and agree.
Lu Zhi came out of the column and said to Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty: "Your Majesty, if you bring all the millions of people to Bingzhou at this time, it is definitely not the best time. Even if millions of people built their own houses from local materials, where would the food rations for so many people come from? If you can't solve the food ration problem, it is tantamount to luring wolves into the house, and if these people rise up because they don't have anything to eat, they may cause trouble! Please think twice...... Your Majesty"
After Guo Jia heard this, he also came out and said: "Your Majesty, those people are all people of the Han Dynasty, if you let them live or die, what will the people of the world think?" What's more, if these millions of people can be placed in various counties, the strength of the state will be greatly improved, at most, it only needs to recuperate and recuperate for three years, and His Majesty's strength is enough to compete with Dong Zhuo! ”
"Why did Dong Zhuo bring these million people to Chang'an? It is nothing more than taking a fancy to the potential of these people, millions of people, of whom at least 300,000 are young and strong. If you have these people, if you form an army among the young and strong, and the rest of the old and weak women and children cultivate, breed and weave, Your Majesty's heritage will rise greatly. Looking at the princes of the world, the strength is nothing more than money and population, only someone can have strong strength, if there is no one, even if there is a mountain of gold, it is just the root and seedling of trouble, the minister feels that no matter what the price is, he must bring these millions of people to the state to settle. ”
"This ......???"
Guo Jia's words are not unreasonable, no matter who the people present are, they don't know how to refute it?
No one is a fool, and everyone knows that if these millions of people are placed in the state, they will increase their strength. But you have to eat, right? Where will the food come from? People are iron and rice is steel, and if there is no food, no matter how big your ambition is, it is just in vain.
But from Guo Jia's tone, it can be heard that Mu Yi is determined to bring these millions of people.
At this moment, Empress Dowager He whispered a few words.
"The affairs of the people will be handled by Guo Aiqing, and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs will greatly assist, and there will be no one left, so retire from the dynasty!" Emperor Shaodi of Han heard the whispers of Empress Dowager He, who was sitting on the back of the screen behind him, and simply pushed everything to Guo Jia and retreated directly.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Guo Jia called Jia Xu, Wang Sanluo, and Zhang Liao together.
Without outsiders, Jia Xu finally asked the doubts in his heart.
"Bong-hyo? It is impossible for you not to know what the impact of bringing these millions of people will be, and if there is not enough food and grass, these millions of people will not only do no good, but will be in great trouble! ”
Guo Jia was also full of sadness, how could he not understand the key to this.
So, Guo Jia told Mu Yi's plan to rob the materials escorted by Lu Bu.
After listening to this, Jia Xu walked to the map, looked at it carefully for a long time before saying: "If you look at the current situation, after General Gao Shun and 30,000 infantry take a shortcut to the annexed state with the people, the most available men and horses in the hands of the lord are only 20,000 cavalry. And Lu Bu has 20,000 cavalry, 10,000 auxiliaries, if you combine Zhang Ji's 10,000 cavalry, a total of 40,000 horses, including the "Flying Bear Army" under Dong Zhuo's command, under the disparity in strength, if it really starts, the lord will definitely be in a weak position. After all, part of the 20,000 cavalry in the hands of the lord was the Xiliang soldiers who were recruited. ”
After hearing this, Guo Jia and the other generals nodded in agreement.
Jia Xu paced back and forth in the room, pondering for a long time before saying: "At present, the soldiers and horses that can be assembled at the fastest speed in the state can not be mobilized, except for the soldiers stationed in various places, they can mobilize up to 10,000 people, even if they go to support, it will be useless!"
