Li Ru understands, don't try to take advantage of Ye Chen when you cooperate with Ye Chen, no matter how much you are cheap, you will go back several times more in the end.

However, this Ye Chen does have a hand in business, and it is absolutely a win-win situation to cooperate with you, and on the surface, you still take a big advantage.

As far as salt is concerned, for a long time, the salt in Liaodong has been of better quality and lower price than that on the market.

So although Dong Zhuo was cheated by Ye Chen several times, he still had to come to him to cooperate in the end.

Although Ye Chen deceived a large number of craftsmen in Xiliang, causing Xiliang to manufacture equipment slowly and of poor quality, buying Ye Chen's equipment would be less expensive than his own manufacturing, and the quality was also better.

Therefore, despite his anger, Li Ru still had to go to Liaodong in person to buy weapons and equipment.

After negotiating the details of the transaction, Ye Chen arranged for Li Ru to stay first.

When he went back, Ye Chen was very happy, this was an unexpected order, he always thought that the line with Dong Zhuo was about to be broken, now Dong Zhuo has money, he is definitely a big rich man, he can get his money over, it is definitely a fat thing for Liaodong to eat.

And Li Ru also has his own plans, now that the Kwantung princes have begun to fight inwardly and cannot unite again, if they want to solve the internal crisis, they can only attack outside, and if Yuan Shao can fight with Ye Chen, then he can avenge Dong Zhuo's revenge.

Both sides had their own ideas, but the transaction went relatively smoothly, and the things negotiated by both sides were all things that had been traded before, and it was easy to do.

After Ye Chen went back, he didn't rest immediately, but went to the study alone, sitting quietly, thinking about things.

This time, Jingzhou and Dong Zhuo came to envoy, so that Ye Chen had a better understanding of the current situation and gave Ye Chen more ideas.

This time, Liaodong undoubtedly made a fortune again, and it is expected that the workshops in Liaodong will work overtime again.

At the same time, it can also absorb and digest many displaced people, so that these displaced people have work.

If nothing else, let's just say that this salt will increase a large number of people for production.

"When the training and weapons and equipment arrive, it's time for me to move."

This visit also made Ye Chen realize the fact that Liaodong is full of development space, and in order to continue to develop, there must be more space and population.

It doesn't matter if the export sales can't be sold, Ye Chen can turn to domestic sales, but this domestic sales need to have more people.

Ye Chen sent away two groups of envoys, and within a few days, he sent two large fleets out, all the way to Jingzhou and all the way to Dong Zhuona.

But at this time, a message also reached Ye Chen.

"Lord, on the day Li Ru left, he released the matter of our alliance with Dong Zhuokeng and Yuan Shao. This is obviously to let us fight with Yuan Shao. Guo Jia said.

"The expected thing, this Li Ru can see and understand, they want to go east, this Yuan Shao will definitely become an obstacle for them, plus we are also Dong Zhuo's enemies, let us fight, it is best to lose both, Li Ru felt that this holy decree was worth it, so he readily agreed." Ye Chen said.

Guo Jia also smiled and said: "That's right, maybe this Li Ru has done us a great favor, we are worried that we don't know how to take Youzhou." ”

Ye Chen glanced at Guo Jia, leaned back in his chair and said, "Fengxiao, tell me how this Li Ru helped us." ”

"Lord, it's definitely not so easy for Yuan Shao to beat us, now we have not completed the handover with their hostages, it is expected to take more than ten days, Yuan Shao does not dare to do it before the handover, and there is still Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan between us, he wants to follow us, it's still early."

"That's right, according to the news, Yuan Shao's plan was to swallow Qingzhou and Merge Prefecture first, these two places are relatively simple, this Qingzhou has almost fallen into his mouth, but now most of it is occupied by Cao Cao, but as soon as this incident comes out, I guess this Yuan Shao will give up other places and want to eat Youzhou first." Ye Chen took Guo Jia's words and analyzed.

Guo Jia laughed, he and Ye Chen thought of it together, so he also took the initiative to take the conversation, and the two began to sing together.

"Lord, if Yuan Shao wants to send troops to Youzhou, the current delicate balance in Youzhou will be broken, but it will take at least more than a month, and it will take nearly two months before and after, and in two months, our battalions can be trained and ready to be put into the battlefield at any time."

Ye Chen then analyzed: "Yuan Shao is a good person, he sent us money and food, and now he gives us a chance, if he doesn't come to Youzhou, my identity can't take the initiative to provoke a war, and Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan take care of me and don't dare to start a war, this stalemate will go on forever, which is very unfavorable to us, at this time, Yuan Shao came." ”

"As long as Yuan Shao comes to attack Youzhou, we will have a reason to send troops, and when Liu Yu or Gongsun Zan fails, I will be able to intervene in the war as the governor of Youzhou and seize the initiative."

The two of them analyzed the situation in Youzhou clearly.

After some analysis, Ye Chen had to do two things, the first was to pay close attention to building equipment, and the second was to pay close attention to training.

After figuring out the situation, Ye Chen left the county guard mansion the next day and went to Yuxian County to see the construction of weapons and equipment.

After going, Ye Chen found that the enthusiasm of the workers was very high, and they worked overtime to build.

Then Ye Chen inspected the battalions and checked the training of each battalion.

The generals appointed by Ye Chen are all veterans of the battlefield, and they have their own sets of training, plus Liaodong has a mature training method, and these recruits are all recruited from the militia, and they can be trained directly after coming, and there is no need for any recruit period at all.

The situation of the army, Ye Chen was very relieved.

At the same time, in Shenyang City and Wangping City, the 20,000 defenders of the city also began to be trained, and the progress was very smooth.

Ye Chen went out this time, took a turn, inspected the situation in various counties at the same time, and returned to Xiangping, it was already a month later.

After inspecting around, Ye Chen found that the army had formed combat effectiveness, and its morale was high, and the military spirit was usable.

"Lord, you can come back, there was new news last night." Guo Jia said.

"Let's go, go to the county guard's mansion."

Ye Chen walked ahead, and when he was not there, Guo Jia would summarize military intelligence and let him know the latest situation.

"Yuan Shao has sent troops, 30,000 pioneers, at least 50,000 rear troops, and now Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan have received the news, both sides have come to our Liaodong and ordered a batch of equipment, we can just sell them the equipment that has been replaced." Guo Jia said.

"Okay, then sell it to them cheaply, let them consume more Yuan Shao's strength, and clear the obstacles for us to swallow Youzhou."

Yuan Shao sent troops a little later than Ye Chen expected, but in the end he still sent troops.

Now the army of Liaodong, after more than two months of training, has become an army, 30,000 tigers, and is always preparing for their first battle.
