Chapter 209: Layout of Liao Sui (Second Update)
"Master Hou" the four of them saluted.
Yuan Xi nodded, turned around, his eyes were cold, and he said angrily: "Whether it is the strategic arrangement, the post-war deployment, and the grain and grass weapons are ready, the Juxian Pavilion has also come to an end, the killing blood in the hearts of the soldiers, the ambition of the generals to expand the territory, has long been uncontrollable, it's time to start moving, Xi wants to fight Wuhuan, form eight banners, and Weiliaodong"
"Master Hou will win," Li Ru and the four of them immediately said loudly in reverence.
"Military Division, how is the problem on the border between the two Liaos?" Yuan Xi asked loudly.
"Lord Hou, our army's intelligence personnel will inevitably launch a rebellion in Liaosui City, the barrier of Liaodong, within four days, in order to ensure success, this time we specially sent the elite in, there will definitely be no problem" Li Ru immediately replied.
"Okay" Yuan Xi turned his head to look at Xu Shu, his tone was a little softer, and said: "Yuan Zhi, I originally wanted you to take a break, but in order to prevent a two-front battle, I can only let you work hard, rush to Liaoxi, and help General Yan Rou"
"The son is serious, and he must do his best to do a good job of this plan to hide from the sky and cross the sea," Xu Shu said in a loud voice.
Yuan Xi nodded with satisfaction, looked at Han Yan, who had only been back for a day, and said: "Zipei, grain and grass, weapons, and ten cupola cannons have been sent to the Liaoxi Army, as long as Wuhuan is solved, Xi wants to try Gongsun Du, the tiger, and whether he has the sharpness of his youth."
"We already started yesterday and are expected to arrive in three days," Han Yan replied solemnly.
"Very good" Yuan Xi praised him, looked at the last Pang Tong, and said softly: "Shi Yuan, the military division and Zipei are going to sit in the center with Xi, and Yuan Zhi is in charge of Liaoxi, this time the Wuhuan battle, Xi decided to hand it over to you, the key point is in Louban, you will set off to Yuyang tomorrow, as the commander of the military division, and discuss the strategy against the enemy with Jiao Touch and Zilong."
"Tong will never live up to the trust of the Hou Ye" Pang Tong replied loudly, and suddenly exuded a sky-high aura, although Pang Tong is now in charge of the military department, but don't underestimate this phoenix chick who is as famous as Zhuge Liang.
"Military advisor, once the Liaosui incident happened, after the Liaoxi army set off, immediately sent an order to Youbeiping, let Wuyan enter the pass, and at the same time let the spies hidden in the Collapsed tribe and the Louban tribe ignite the last fire, so that the armies in Youzhou will immediately prepare to go to the battle" Yuan Xi said solemnly.
"No!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, whether Youzhou can rise completely, whether the Eight Banners can be successfully formed, and whether the scourge of Wuhuan can be completely eliminated, in this battle, I hope you will cooperate with Jin Cheng, Xi please" Yuan Xi gave a salute.
"Master Hou will win" The four hurriedly returned the salute.
。。。。。
Three days later, Liaosui City, located at the junction of Liaodong and Liaoxi, where the barrier of Liaodong is, if you enter Liaodong, you will take Liaosui, some people may wonder, why can't you bypass it directly? This is the difference between ancient and modern, ancient traffic is generally based on official roads, other places, or not developed, or the road is tortuous, sometimes even can not identify the direction of progress, go to the wrong place, so the ancient war, all the cities on the official road, are strategic points, master it, not only to ensure the logistics of transportation, but also better, faster to gather troops, send troops to various places.
Therefore, Liaosui City is very important, and Gongsun Du also attaches great importance to it, and the permanent army here is not less than 13,000 people.
Gongsun Dushi's hero, taking advantage of the Central Plains melee and the decline of the Han Dynasty, established himself as the Marquis of Liaodong and Pingzhou Mu, attacked Goguryeo in the east, attacked Wuhuan in the west, took the Liaodong Peninsula in the south, crossed the sea to take the Jiaodong Peninsula and the Donglai counties in the north, the strength was quite strong, as if he was the king, although he still obeyed the Han family in the clear sense, but in fact, he had already become a country of his own, more than 100,000 generations, even Yuan Shao, the male lord of the north, did not want to move this tiger for the time being, although this tiger in recent years because of the relationship between age and body, gradually gave power to his son Gongsun Kang, But it is still not to be taken lightly.
In addition to the strategic importance of Liaosui, commerce and trade are also extremely developed, Gongsun Du is old, and he does not have the ambition to compete in the world, he just wants to stay in Liaodong in peace, so he greatly encourages commerce and trade, cracks down on Haoqiang, and increases the treasury, every year there are many merchants through here, pull goods to Liaodong, or return to Liaoxi, and earn a huge difference.
On this day, the huge Liaosui city is still the city gate is wide open, the city is more than seven zhang high, quite wide, solid, the city gate, people come and go, it is not lively, except for the residents of the city, most of them are foreign merchants, on the top of the high city, a pair of elite soldiers, wearing strong armor, holding spears, constantly walking back and forth, a big military flag fluttering in the wind, there is a huge "Qi" word written on it, here is really guarded by the general Qi Bin of Gongsun Du.
At about dusk, a pair of business travelers suddenly came to the outside of Liaosui City, more than a dozen carriages, full of goods, followed by a group of guards, led by a middle-aged man, with a big belly, a round head, a rich and kind face, and a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Where did you come from?" Just when he was about to enter the city, a military marquis guarding the city suddenly stopped, his face was quite serious, he had also guarded for many years, but he had never seen these people, and he was a little vigilant in his heart.
"My lord, we are from Youbeiping, and business has not been doing well recently, so we decided to go to Liaodong to sell some goods and earn some expenses" The big-bellied shopkeeper immediately took out a money bag from his pocket and quietly handed it over.
After the military marquis took it, he padded slightly, and a smile appeared on his face, "If you're lucky, the city gate will be closed soon, but according to the rules, you still have to check it."
"Yes, yes," the pot-bellied man hurriedly laughed.
As soon as the marquis waved his hand, groups of soldiers rushed into the carriage and searched carefully, and some even opened the bags directly, which were full of white rice, wine, jewelry, and the like.
"My lord, no problem?" A short time later, a soldier reported.
The military marquis nodded, and then glanced at the guards holding swords, although these people seemed to be very ordinary, they still frowned slightly and said: "The weapons are also temporarily left, and when you go out of the city, take them from the south gate."
"This" pot-bellied shopkeeper hesitated.
"Don't worry, in this Liaosui City, no one will dare to snatch your goods" The captain comforted, if it was one or two people, he would forget it, but there were dozens of people, and these were all fresh faces, if they all carried weapons, I am afraid that there would be problems.
"Oh well! Trouble the marquis," the pot-bellied shopkeeper nodded helplessly.
"It's okay, let's go in!"
"Thank you, thank you" After the pot-bellied shopkeeper asked people to leave their weapons, he immediately led people into the city.
The group found an inn at random, and after booking the room, they immediately entered the room, closed the door, and the originally easy-going big-bellied shopkeeper glanced around, and his face changed instantly, revealing a ruthlessness.
"The outside is ready, just waiting for us, tonight, immediately implement the plan of the commander-in-chief, Liao Sui deputy general Qin Ming, his sister is the concubine of Gongsun Kang, who is greedy, and has killed passing merchants for personal gain, and Liao Sui guard general Qi Bin, although brave and good at fighting, but he is indeed a very protective person, so this time the target is Qin Ming, the characters have been selected, all of them are profiteers who sell weapons and intelligence to Liaoxi privately, the commander-in-chief has long noticed them, this time no one is left, all of them are killed, blame Qin Ming, Our army needs a reason now, nothing else matters, after killing them, immediately spread rumors, and then hide in the Zhen family's shops in the city, waiting for the arrival of the army, and listen to orders"
"No!"
"Your weapons have been confiscated, but this is expected, Liao Sui is so critical, we are fresh, we will definitely be vigilant, originally the Zhen family shop also has our black devil people, but this time the situation is more special, there may be a real battle, so we need our demon guards to dispatch, I think you all remember what the general said, it is a toothpick, and it must also be able to become a lethal weapon"
"Commander, rest assured, we will never fail in our mission" Several people in the room immediately responded confidently, exuding this cold temperament.
"Okay, remember, if anyone is arrested and breaks it off on their own, the commander-in-chief, and even the Hou Ye, will take care of your family, and if you are greedy for life and afraid of death, not only will you die, but your family will not have a good result" The big-bellied man reminded coldly.
"No!"
