Chapter 314: The War is Coming

Yanjing, on the Taiji Palace.

"Your Majesty Yuan Shao's 200,000 troops are gathering in Jin County, and they may attack our army at any time." Ouyang Xiu stepped forward to report.

"Your Majesty Lu Bu is leading an army of 50,000 people to assemble in the Yangqu area, and may invade Yanmen at any time." Xu Guangqi also stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, General Xu Da, and General Xu Huang respectively sent news that he had marched towards Yuan Shao's department." Fan Zhongyan stepped forward again and said.

"It seems that the world has changed all of a sudden, Yuan Shao, Lu Bu's wolf ambitions, how can I give in to them." Liu Wei shouted solemnly.

"Your Majesty Shengming!" The ministers said in unison.

"Lord Lieutenant, please inform me of the current strength of the various troops." Liu Wei looked at Lu Zhi.

A few years have passed, and the old minister of this big man is still full of energy, his face is ruddy, and he is very healthy.

"Your Majesty, guarding Yanmen, General Yang Ye in the area of the Great Wall, has 40,000 soldiers and horses, General Xu Da of the Left Wuwei, 40,000 soldiers and horses, General Yue Fei of the Right Wuwei, 30,000 soldiers and horses, General Luo Cheng of the Left Xiaowei, 20,000 soldiers and horses, General Gaosu of the Right Xiaowei, 30,000 soldiers and horses, General Xu Huang of Qingzhou, 60,000 soldiers and horses, General Li Jing, 10,000 soldiers and horses, a total of 20,000 soldiers and horses of the defenders of the major cities, and 30,000 soldiers and horses of the forbidden army, His Majesty has a total of 280,000 soldiers and horses. Lu Zhi gave a rough account of the distribution of the main armies.

When they heard that there were 280,000 soldiers and horses, all the ministers in the court showed joy, but only a few people did not smile.

"Do you think we'll have a chance of winning this time?" Liu Wei looked at the ministers and asked in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, although the number of our army is slightly inferior to Yuan Shao, our army is all elite and strong generals, I don't know how much stronger than Yuan Shao's house, as for Lu Bu, a brave and unscrupulous horseman, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses can be destroyed in an instant under the iron hooves of my Youzhou." Long He stepped forward and said confidently.

The other ministers also had confident looks on their faces.

"You are wrong, you are all wrong, this war is countless times more difficult and cruel than you imagined, and the future of me and your ministers depends on this war." Liu Wei said with a serious expression, this is a seriousness that Liu Wei has never had. It is conceivable that the importance of this battle in Liu Bian's heart.

"Your Majesty, forgive your foolishness!" Qin Qiong asked Liu Wei with a blank expression.

"Then I'll tell you how hard this battle is." Liu Wei said in a condensed voice.

The ministers immediately quieted down, and their eyes all looked at Liu Wei.

"Our army has 280,000, do you know how many can really be used?" Liu Wei looked at the ministers.

"Your Majesty, please!" Yang Zaixing said.

"The first army guarding the Great Wall and the border of Yanmen must not move, and even I am ready to increase my troops, the three-year period between me and Mongolia has long passed, Prince Tuolei has already returned, we have no conditions to restrain the Mongols, they may invade the land of our Han at any time, especially after we hand over with Yuan Shao, they are likely to take advantage of the situation, so that only 240,000 soldiers and horses are left, and the second Youzhou is not completely controlled by me, although Gongsun Zhan is greatly injured, he has lost Yuyang County, But it still has to be guarded, especially during the war, it is necessary to leave a part of the men and horses to monitor them, so Li Jing's soldiers and horses can not move, so that we only have 230,000 soldiers and horses left, and the third Xu Da Xu Huang In order to contain Yuan Shao's army and weaken Yuan Shao's troops, he is ready to go to war at this time, so that there are only 140,000 soldiers and horses left available to us on the main battlefield, and Lu Bu of the fourth annexed state has used troops against us, and I must also send troops to stop them, so I want a few more soldiers and horses, plus the cities, After all, the imperial city will have to leave a part of the soldiers and horses to defend it, so that we will only have less than 100,000 soldiers left to fight. As for Yuan Shao's side, I estimate that excluding the soldiers and horses who were pinned down by Xu Da and Xu Huang, they will have nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses, do you still think this battle is very easy? ”

"Your Majesty is stupid, thank you for your teachings!" The generals who despised Yuan Shao just now, the minister immediately said to Liu Wei, with embarrassed and ashamed expressions on his faces.

"Perhaps I have more frightening news here, according to the speculation of me and the ministers, there are also various signs that Chang'an will also send a large army to attack, and the soldiers and horses will be about 100,000 to 150,000, so that we will face three or four times as many soldiers as us." Liu Wei said solemnly.

Yanjing had already received the news that Chang'an had issued an edict declaring that Liu Wei was possessed by evil demons and monsters, but of course the people, soldiers, officials, and generals under Liu Wei did not believe it.

Thinking of Liu Wei's words, they had already thought of the fact that Chang'an was going to send troops.

It's just that they are more worried about the next war, and those who previously despised their opponents and despised this war are even more embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, in such a critical situation, does Your Majesty have a countermeasure?" Situ Liu Yu asked heavily.

"I don't have any countermeasures, but I only have one word, I will fight to the death and never give in." Liu Wei said solemnly.

"The ministers are willing to live and die with Your Majesty." All the civil and military in the Taiji Hall shouted in unison.

"Where is Yue Fei?" Liu Wei shouted.

"Chen Yue Fei is here!" Yue Fei stepped out.

"I order you to lead your army to Yanmen to resist Lu Bu's army."

"Chen Yue Fei commands!"

"Yue Fei, I still have to tell you something, I still have to draw five thousand soldiers and horses from your men, are you willing!"

Yue Fei frowned slightly, but quickly recovered, "The ministers follow His Majesty's orders. ”

"Good!"

"Where is Li Jing?"

"The minister is here!"

"Li Jing, I order you to return to Yuyang immediately, guard Yuyang County, and monitor Gongsun Zhan." Liu Wei said in a deep voice.

"Obey the order!"

"Luo Cheng listens to orders!"

"The minister is here!" Luo Cheng stepped out.

"I order you to lead your troops to withdraw from Yuyang, go to Daijun to stand by, and be ready to support at any time."

"Obey the order!" Luo Cheng was a little reluctant in his heart, because he and Xinyue'e were already married, and now Xinyue'e was pregnant and couldn't be tired, and because of Xinyue'e's relationship, he had an intersection with Xinwenli, and he was very concerned about the affairs of Gongsun Zhan's department, but he couldn't disobey Liu Wei's order and didn't want to disobey it.

"Xue Rengui, Xue Kui, He Yuanqing, Zhou Dewei, Zhen Minger and others immediately rushed to Bohai to help Xu Da." Liu Wei spoke again, Xue Rengui and others had already been assigned to Xu Da, but most of the time they were still in Yanjing to listen to the tune.

"Your Ministers obey!" Four people were out of the ranks.

"Zhao Yun listens to orders!"

"The minister is here!"

"I immediately rushed to Zhongshan Country to inform Gao Su that he was ordered to stick to Zhongshan and wait for the arrival of the army!"

"Obey the order!"

"In addition, I decided to drive the expedition in person, and the major affairs of the DPRK and China were decided by the three dukes, and officials at all levels performed their duties." Liu Wei once again released a big news.

"Your Majesty, no!"

"Your Majesty, no!"

……

As soon as Liu Wei's words came out, he was instantly opposed by the ministers.

"As a king, how can I be greedy for life and afraid of death when the society is in danger, how can I let the soldiers fight alone, and never change the royal conquest." Liu Wei said solemnly.

"Since Your Majesty insists, the ministers can only wish Your Majesty a triumphant return." Liu Yu had no choice but to say.

"The affairs of the court and the central government will be handed over to the emperor, uncle, ancestor and all the lords." Liu Wei said politely.

"This is a matter within the minister's share!"

"The forbidden army left 10,000 horses, and some of the other places were drawn out and set off with me, and Guo Jia, Liu Ji, and Xun Yu all set off with me."

"Obey your orders!"

Everything has been arranged by Liu Wei, and everything can only wait for the big war to come.

……

In the harem, Liu Wei summoned all the concubines, princes and princesses, and informed them of the fact that he was going to drive the royal conquest.

"In my absence, everything in the harem is handled by the queen. Don't be presumptuous! Liu Wei showed his majesty as the head of the family and the king of a country.

“……”

"Your Majesty, the concubine wants to go with Your Majesty!" Xuanhua's wife Chen said first.

Since Mrs. Xuanhua got along with Liu Wei day and night, although her temperament is still cold, she is not as indifferent and unkind as she was at the beginning, and she is extremely dependent on Liu Bian.

"Your Majesty, the concubines also want to go!"

"Your Majesty, the concubines are also willing to go with you!"

"Your Majesty......"

“……”

As Mrs. Xuanhua's words fell, a group of concubines competed to be the first to speak.

"Your Majesty, the battlefield is dangerous, and you are accompanied by danger all day long, and there is a group of reckless soldiers around you, they can't even take care of themselves, let alone take care of Your Majesty, let which sisters go with Your Majesty, there is just someone to take care of Your Majesty." Tang Hou persuaded him.
