Chapter 370: Liu Shen's strategy

Guo Jia arched his hand and said: "General Zhao turned the tide and defeated the traitor, how can he not be a general, if such a meritorious person is not rewarded, what do the officers and soldiers in the army think?" ”

Liu Biao pondered for a moment and said slowly: "That's right, Feng Zhao Yun is the general of Yangwei." ”

I have to say that Zhao Yun's appearance left a good impression on Liu Biao, in this era, the first thing to look at people is to observe their appearance, and Zhao Yun's appearance is dignified, which makes people feel good at a glance.

"Holy Wisdom!" Guo Jia arched his hand.

Yuan Shao's gaze at Guo Jia was also a little cold, the grudge between Jizhou and Bingzhou is known to the world, it can be said that if it weren't for the merger, Jizhou now has Youzhou, uniting most of Youzhou Jizhou and Qingzhou, such strength should be the head of the princes, that is, the appearance of Lu Bu, which destroyed all this.

General Yangwei has no clear record in the general officer position of the Han Dynasty, that is, the miscellaneous general, of course, Yuan Shao will not sit idly by and watch the state army get too many rewards, even if Lu Bu has meritorious service in the battle against Yuan Shu, he is just named a rebellious general, and there is no clear rank for rebellious generals.

Among the military generals, the highest status is the general, ranking above the three dukes, not often, even if there is, it is held by relatives, followed by hussar generals, chariot generals, and Wei generals.

After General Wei, there are four armies, four marches, four towns, four an, four ping generals, and the rest are miscellaneous generals, of course, the princes cannot canonize their generals as genuine generals, so that most of the generals under the princes are miscellaneous generals given by some princes, and the chief general can be designated in wartime.

As if sensing something, Guo Jia turned his head sideways and smiled at Yuan Shao.

This victory also made the atmosphere in the big tent a little lighter.

"General Zhao went out to kill the enemy generals, greatly boosted the morale of our army, and named you the general of the Han Dynasty!" Liu Biao looked at Zhao Yun after entering the camp and saluted and said slowly, this is also the news that Liu Biao wants to reveal to the princes, that is, meritorious service will be rewarded.

was named the general of Yangwei, although Zhao Yun was a little surprised, but also hurriedly thanked, at this time Liu Biao represents the Han Dynasty, can be canonized for Liu Biao personally, that is, the name is justified, although the princes are not pretentious to Liu Biao, but still hope to get a nominal reward from Liu Biao, unlike Yuan Shu, Liu Biao inherited the unification, and did not immediately promote the officials of Jingzhou to important positions, this is also to avoid criticism, as for the future strength, it is not too late to be rewarded.

The victory of the cavalry led by Zhao Yun did not change the absolute disadvantage of the princes' coalition army, at this time they had put all their hopes on Lu Bu's body, only by completely cutting off Yuan Shu's grain and grass, it was possible to win the war, but they also knew that it was very illusory to pin their hopes on this, after all, Lu Bu's men only had 800 cavalry, and the 2,000 cavalry sent in Anfeng City, the princes also knew.

Let's say that after Chen Ji led 2,000 cavalry to Lu'an, he joined forces with Liu Shen's soldiers, with Liu Shen as the main leader, led an army of 5,000 and began to search for traces of wolf cavalry on the battlefield, and the scouts of the Zhong family were all over the battlefield.

"General Liu, now Anfeng's grain and grass are only needed for ten days, and this time the grain and grass cannot be lost." Chen Ji said in a heavy tone.

Liu Shen also showed a worried look on his face, the army was victorious, but because of the existence of the wolf cavalry, he could not live in peace, he even had the idea of advising Yuan Shu to withdraw for the time being, after all, the princes' coalition army was defeated, and there was no strength to invade the Zhong family again, and Jingzhou's losses were extremely serious, after recuperation, pacifying Jiangdong and capturing Jingzhou was the best policy, and there was no need to be in Anfeng and the princes for a long time.

"General Chen, the wolf cavalry is extremely cunning, if it is not bad as expected, the commander of the wolf cavalry this time is the Marquis of Jin Lu Bu, this person is extremely brave and good at fighting, and very strategic, a few days ago, the general led 5,000 soldiers and horses to chase and kill the wolf cavalry, and was defeated by it, so he could only retreat to Lu'an." Liu Shen sighed.

"Is that so?" Chen Ji was surprised, the number of wolf riders was only 1,000 at most, and he could break 5,000 with 1,000 people, and he asked himself that he couldn't do it no matter what.

Then Liu Shen recounted the day's experience in detail, listening to Chen Ji's brows, judging from the situation of the battle, Lu Bu led the wolf cavalry, obviously very good at strategy, and even made the five thousand army return in vain, if this is the case, the two thousand cavalry should be extra careful when fighting against the wolf cavalry.

"General Liu, now the grain and grass of the army is estimated to have reached the vicinity of Lu'an, even if the wolf rider is cunning, as long as the grain and grass are safely transported to Anfeng, he is helpless." Chen Jidao.

"General Chen, wait a minute." Liu Shen said: "The wolf rider is cunning, and it needs to be decided in a battle. ”

Then Liu Shen ordered someone to get a topographic map, and the two studied it for a long time in front of the topographic map.

Topographic maps are definitely the biggest assistant for marching and fighting.

Liu Shen pointed to the place not far from Lu'an on the topographic map and said slowly: "After being defeated by the wolf rider, this general pondered hard and concluded that the wolf rider would definitely do it here. ”

Chen Ji was overjoyed when he heard this, and Liu Shen was also well-known for his resourcefulness in Yuan Shu's army.

"The wolf rider scouts are all over the battlefield, if you are not careful, I am afraid that they will slip away again, but if the wolf rider dares to plunder the grain and grass of the army here, it will be the time when the wolf rider is destroyed." Liu Shen muttered.

"I want to hear about it."

Liu Shen glanced left and right, and said it in his ear, hearing that Chen Ji's eyes lit up, if it was really as Liu Shen said, then the wolf rode more than lucky.

The two immediately led the army to Lu'an, which is probably the largest team escorting grain and grass until the war, with 8,000 grain carriers.

It was difficult for the 3,000-strong army to hide its tracks, and it was easily discovered by the soldiers of the Flying Eagle.

Wandering around Lu'an, Lu Bu couldn't help but worry about the lives of the people of Huainan, the most obvious being that when it was time to eat, there were only a few households in a village that smoked, although he was not close to the village, he could also imagine what the life of the people was like.

Huainan is extremely rich, which is known to the princes, but the life of the people of Huainan is probably worse than that of the people of the annexed state.

Seeing the arrival of the cavalry of the brigade, the villagers of Chenjiazhuang were extremely afraid, and the children in the village even cried, the intersection of several roads of the Chen family was the place where the grain transportation team must pass, and the terrain of Chenjia Village was quite high, which was more conducive to the charge of the cavalry.

"Don't be afraid, we are the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and we came here to beg for water." Dian Wei showed what he thought was the most kind smile, but who knew that the young man in front of him turned around and ran after hearing the word "imperial court", shouting "The Zhong family's army is coming" as he ran.

After reading it, remember to vote for the recommendation, Zhou recommended two thousand, plus two more chapters!
