Chapter 923: The Crowd Returns

Half a month later,

The main generals stationed in various places hurried back.

"The ministers have seen Your Majesty!"

This time, Liu Wei summoned them in the imperial study, not in the Taiji Palace, because this matter is related to the southern expedition plan, and the stakes are too important, so it is better to let some people know as little as possible.

The generals who came to Yanjing this time were still those people, Yue Fei, Xu Da, Meng Tian, Li Jing, Wei Qing, Xu Huang, Qi Jiguang, in addition to them, Liu Ji, Guo Jia, Zhang Liang, and Wang Bodang also arrived.

"I think you already know the purpose of my summoning you back, what do you think?" Liu Wei asked.

"Ministers are at your Majesty's orders!"

Li Jing and other generals replied at the same time, obviously they had left everything to Liu Wei to decide.

"It's okay, you just have to settle down for me, and leave these brain-consuming things to them!" Liu Wei said with a smile.

When they heard this, they all smiled.

"Meng Tian's army still does what needs to be done, continues to pressure Yizhou, and if there is a chance to take Yizhou in one fell swoop, it is not impossible." Liu Wei said in a deep voice.

"The minister understands!"

Meng Tian nodded,

"Wei Qing led the Imperial Forest Army to join Yue Fei and jointly put pressure on Jingzhou, if possible, you can also take Jingzhou in one fell swoop, of course, you don't have to be too anxious, the basic task I give you is to suppress Jingzhou's soldiers and horses, and prevent the Jingzhou army from going north or east to support Cao Cao." Liu Wei continued.

"Obey the order!"

Wei Qing and Yue Fei replied at the same time.

"Xu Huang!"

Liu Wei suddenly named Xu Huang.

"Your 50,000 army is left in the Tang Kingdom, and you are in command yourself, and another 20,000 troops are transferred to the Tiger Camp for the time being." Liu Wei commanded.

"Your Majesty, didn't Mo Feichen participate in this battle of the Southern Expedition?" Xu Huang asked tentatively.

"I didn't participate, because I had to personally lead the troops in this battle." Liu Wei shook his head directly, and gave a relatively reasonable explanation,

"Got it!"

Hearing this, Xu Huang was a little disappointed, and at the same time a little helpless.

"I will take part of the forbidden army and the tiger camp south into Jiujiang County, Li Jing, you also lead the troops into Jiujiang County, let's set off from Jiujiang County to attack Danyang County." Liu Wei instructed Li Jing.

"Obey the order!"

Li Jing replied immediately.

"Xu Da, you can attack Wu County from the south of Guangling County?" Liu Wei looked at Xu Da,

"The minister should live up to his mission!"

Xu Da replied categorically.

"Good!"

Liu Wei nodded in agreement.

"Qi Jiguang ordered you to immediately take the sailor to the sailor camp established in Xuzhou and wait for the arrival of the battle of the Southern Expedition."

Liu Wei finally instructed Qi Jiguang that the battle of crossing the river could not be without the sailors that Liu Wei had high hopes for.

"Obey the order!"

After getting the task, Qi Jiguang's heart was very happy.

"I'm planning to send troops in March, what do you think?"

Liu Wei asked, Liu Wei's eyes were looking at Liu Ji and the others, so it was obvious that Liu Wei was asking Liu Ji, Zhang Liang and Guo Jia.

"I think it's better to carry out a full-scale operation in four months!" Liu Ji proposed.

"Why?"

Liu Wei asked with a smile.

"It's March now, the rainy season in the south has begun, three months later is June, this time is still the rainy season, the water of the Yangtze River naturally rises, and the waves are big, it is not good for crossing the river, four months later is July, the rainy season on the Yangtze River is almost over, this time is the most suitable to cross the river."

Liu Ji explained. (PS: I know that many readers are knowledgeable people, but please note that this era is the lunar calendar, please do not substitute the rainy season of the solar calendar.) )

"It makes sense, then let's go on the southern expedition in four months, but in these four months, all preparations must be made, and the army, grain and grass must be in place."

Liu Wei agreed to Liu Ji's proposal, but also had his own conditions.

"The minister understands!"

Liu Ji replied that Liu Ji, as the prime minister, has a great responsibility for the mobilization of grain, grass and materials.

"You two, do you have any opinions?" Liu Wei looked at Zhang Liang and Guo Jia again.

"Does Your Majesty plan to destroy Cao Cao first, then Liu Bei, and finally pacify Yizhou?"

Zhang Liang asked, this is actually a question that does not need to be asked, but Zhang Liang still asked again.

"That's right, I plan to do this, first destroy Cao Cao, and then, the two flanking attacks will enter Jingzhou to destroy Liu Bei, and finally the two flanking attacks will enter Yizhou in one fell swoop." Liu Wei nodded and truthfully informed Zhang Liang.

"The minister thinks that Jiangdong, where Cao Cao is located, can make more fuss." Zhang Liang said calmly.

"What's the article?"

Liu Wei asked curiously.

"May I ask Your Majesty whose body did Cao Cao step on when he entered Jiangdong?"

Zhang Liang asked unhurriedly, it seems that these civil servants and strategists like to play some intermittent routines to show their talents, even Zhang Liang.

"Naturally, it's the Jiangdong Sun clan!"

Liu Wei was not annoyed, and replied directly.

"Jiangdong Sun has three successes, Sun Jian, Sun Ce, Sun Quan, among which Sun Jian is the father of the crown princess, Sun Ce, Sun Quan is the brother of the crown princess, and now the Sun family has long collapsed, the crown princess should be the most orthodox Sun clan, even if the crown princess has already married a woman, but the crown princess still carries the name of the Sun clan on her head, and it can't change the fact that the princess was born in Jiangdong."

"You better just say it, you don't have to talk to me about these twists and turns." Liu Wei directly interrupted Zhang Liang's words and said strongly.

"Yes!"

Zhang Liang chuckled and spoke again, "The crown princess has given birth to the imperial grandson, in the eyes of the minister, the eldest grandson born to the crown princess is very likely to inherit the throne in the future, as the place where her mother was born, Jiangdong is naturally a place of great significance, and this is definitely good news for the people of Jiangdong and the family."

Therefore, the minister thought that His Majesty could use the name of the crown princess and the emperor's eldest grandson to plot in Jiangdong, so that the people and families in Jiangdong would slowly lean towards the imperial court, and even help the imperial court in secret. ”

"Do you think Jiangdong hasn't been controlled by Cao Cao yet?"

Liu Wei is a little strange, in his opinion, with Cao Cao, Wang Meng's ability is impossible not to control Jiangdong, even if it is soft, Cao Cao has a large army.

"The minister thought that Cao Cao's control of Jiangdong was only superficial, and this control came from Cao Cao's hundreds of thousands of troops, Sun Jian, Sun Ce's father and son had a very great influence on Jiangdong, because the existence of their father and son made Jiangdong in a very stable state, and they were deeply rooted in the hearts of the people of Jiangdong.

Cao Cao's party is a northerner, Cao Cao took Jiangdong, the original ruler Sun was destroyed, and this in the eyes of the people of Jiangdong is the dove occupies the magpie's nest, and later Cao Cao was defeated in Jiangbei, the original territory in the north was lost, and the loss of troops will be greatly damaged, and at this time in the eyes of the people of Jiangdong Cao Cao is the dog who lost his family, but even so Cao Cao is still they can not provoke. ”

"Go on, let's put it simply!"

Liu Wei fell into thought, he felt that what Zhang Liang said was very reasonable, and he had a faint feeling that Zhang Liang's words could make the battle of the Southern Expedition smoother.

"All in all, Cao Cao's control in Jiangdong is superficial, Cao Cao does not control the hearts of the people, he only controls the army."

"But how can it be enough to rely on the army to fight, collecting grain and grass, transporting grain and grass, and transporting materials are all important, Cao Cao will never let his army do these things, and he does not have so many troops, so these things will be handed over to the family and the people, so the minister thinks that he can use the crown princess and the emperor's eldest grandson to let the brothers of the dragon guard secretly build momentum and influence in Jiangdong." Zhang Liang said in a deep voice.

"Good, good!"

After listening to this, Liu Wei smiled, because if it was according to what Zhang Liang said, it would be extremely smooth for the next southern expedition.

"Of course, Cao Cao may also know this, and let their own army control these transportations, but the collection, transportation is very manpower-consuming, Cao Cao does not understand that tens of thousands of soldiers and horses can not be used to fill the loopholes in time, that is also a great joy for the imperial army."

Zhang Liang continued, this time directly supplementing the shortcomings of what he had just said.

"Bodang, you should know what to do next!" Liu Wei looked at Wang Bodang.

"The minister understands, the minister will arrange it!"

Wang Bodang replied categorically.

"You all go down and prepare!"
