Returning victorious, Qin Guan and Liu Ye were naturally happy, but they didn't dare to be careless, now that they unified the Jiangdong counties, if Dong Zhuo occupied Jingnan, he would definitely attack them.

As a result, Liu Ye began to actively plan the battle plan.

Fortunately, a large area of land was occupied this time for the resettlement of the Shanyue people; Not only did they get 15,000 Danyang soldiers who could fight well, but also together with their families, nearly 100,000 Shanyue people moved out of the mountainous areas, which greatly eased the contradictions with Shanyue people and stabilized the place.

First of all, the meritorious personnel this time were rewarded and the original promise was fulfilled, fortunately, there were not many battles this time, and there were fewer meritorious personnel, but the rewards were very rich, and even Ji Ling and others also had rich rewards.

The distribution of large quantities of money, grain, land, and houses has greatly stimulated the fighting enthusiasm of the officers and men, who are eagerly looking forward to the coming of the next war.

Constant production, in any era, has a great temptation for anyone.

The naval army is listed as a prerequisite for a decisive battle, and without the superiority of the naval army, no one will rashly develop a large-scale land attack, otherwise, the logistics line will be cut off or surrounded, and the consequences will be unpredictable.

The navy has Gao Wei, the governor of the navy, stationed in Guangling County, Qin Guan and Liu Ye are not worried, and there is also Lu Su's navy, the three secretly work together, Dong Zhuo is by no means an opponent; Therefore, Qin Guan and Liu Ye focused a lot of energy on the training of infantry and cavalry.

For the land defense, Liu Ye did not dare to be careless, and first planned to open up the old road from Huiji County to Yuzhang County to facilitate timely support.

Repair the city and strengthen the defense, especially the city of Chaisang, which is even more airtight and impermeable.

Finally, Liu Ye began to think about strategic and tactical arrangements.

A few days later, Gao Shun received a secret letter from Qin Guan.

After consulting with Li Qiang and Gao Shun, it was decided to send the remaining 2,000 crossbowmen equipped with war horses to Qin Guan to ensure that he had the confidence to fight against Dong Zhuo.

Jia Xu also received information sent back by the intelligence officers, and Gao Shun took the opportunity to hold a military meeting.

Xi Zhicai, as a military advisor, was naturally presided over by him at every meeting, and he spoke first: "Yangzhou Qinzhou Mu has expelled Sun Ce and completely occupied the Jiangdong counties, the world will be decided, and now only Dong Zhuo's forces and Jiaozhou are not peaceful, what are your good plans?" ”

Soon after Feng Ji came, he was eager to make meritorious contributions, and he was anxious to express himself in front of Gao Shun, so he said: "My lord, first of all, we must attack Luoyang, and then, launch the final blow to Dong Zhuo's forces. ”

Gao Shun attaches great importance to Luoyang City and the Imperial Palace, if he can't take over Luoyang City completely, he would rather wait for two more years, and now the sneak attack will make him feel like a rat trap, and it will be difficult to start.

Xin Ping suggested: "My lord, you should immediately let Jiangdong rescue Liu Pan, otherwise, at most, in half a year, Dong Zhuo can occupy Jingnan, if so, he can deal with Jiangdong with peace of mind, then Jiangdong is in danger!" In addition, the lord should send people to Jiaozhou, unite with Shixie, expel Ma Riyan, and draw salary from Zhang Xiu's Northern Expedition to reduce Liu Pan's pressure. ”

This era has changed a lot from the previous life, Jiaozhi County Taishou Shixie did not stand on his own, nor did he occupy the four counties of Jiaozhou, but managed Jiaozhi County with peace of mind; At this time, Jiaozhi County became the richest county in Jiaozhou, with a dense population, as many as more than 800,000, developed agriculture, and a large number of handicraft workshops.

Cochin County is located in the alluvial plain of northern Vietnam in later generations, with fertile soil, convenient irrigation, and the north is separated from the Central Plains by mountains.

In addition, the Lingnan people are as strong as the Shanyue people, as long as they get the support of the people, they can pull up a strong army at any time, and they can cut the land and stand on their own feet at any time.

Jia Xu said: "Don't worry, the news sent back shows that although Dong Zhuo has a strong cavalry and a strong naval army, the northern officers and soldiers are not used to fighting in the Jiangnan region, and the spread of the plague will not be able to pacify Liu Pan in a short time." ”

Gao Shun's forces have many doctors, and Gao Shun likes to use nearby officers and soldiers, is familiar with the terrain and climate, and can fight quickly every time, never fighting a protracted war or attrition, so there has been no plague war in all wars.

Everyone thought to themselves, if the plague spread in Dong Zhuo's army, let alone win, it would be a fluke not to be defeated by Liu Pan.

Gao Shun thought to himself that if there was a plague there, it would be a disaster for ordinary people, and even cause population extinction, and he had to rescue; Xin Ping's words just now reminded him that he attacked Luoyang.

Others can't sneak attack Luoyang, but he is very convenient, just enter Luoyang City, and release the officers and soldiers from the system to occupy Luoyang intact.

And this has another advantage, the imperial court and Dong Zhuoshang are in Jiangbei, and the officers and soldiers are scattered, which is convenient for them to be divided, surrounded and eliminated, and Jiaozhou and Jingnan can be passed on at that time, and there is no need to expose his ambitions in advance and leave a bad reputation.

It's better to act than to move, Gao Shun has made up his mind and decided to implement it as soon as possible, and after occupying Luoyang, he won't be so shy back.

So Gao Shun said: "As long as the war against Dong Zhuo is launched, it will be the final decisive battle, Yangzhou, Yuzhou and Yanzhou are always ready to fight, but are Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yizhou and Liangzhou ready?" In particular, the water army in Yizhou is the top priority, and it must be fully prepared and there must be no mistakes; Therefore, my opinion is that the General's Office can send officials to check the state of the armies in each state and make sure that they have a clear idea of what to do, and then discuss the issue of attack, otherwise it will be detrimental to the implementation of the long-term strategy. ”

Everyone thought that this matter was in charge of Xi Zhicai and Jia Xu.

Subsequently, Gao Shun separately convened Li Qiang and Ma Gui to discuss the sneak attack on Luoyang.

Ma Gui objected: "My lord, as the saying goes, the son of a daughter can't sit down, this move is too risky, and you are against it." ”

Li Qiang and Ma Gui had different mentalities, and they felt particularly excited, so they said: "Haha, although Meng Zhen can rest assured, can't I keep the lord safe with me?" ”

Gao Shun said: "Haha, I will disguise myself as a guard, follow him into Luoyang, and launch a sneak attack at night; Meng Wen can't go, and I need you to cover for me here. ”

Li Qiang suddenly felt very disappointed, there was no battle to fight in the past few years, and he had to play a few tricks with Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Ma Chao and others every day, becoming everyone's sparring partner, and his hands were itchy and uncomfortable, so he said: "This trip is too risky, it's better not to go, I don't follow, I don't worry." ”

Gao Shun knew his temper, so he said: "You have a more important task, I am ready to order you to lead the trapped camp and the cavalry of the headquarters to Yanzhou secretly, after I take Luoyang City, you can take the Tiger Prison Pass, and then march to Luoyang to resist Dong Zhuo's counterattack." ”

Li Qiang listened to Gao Shun's arrangement, and was very excited in his heart, so he said: "Yes, lord!" ”

Ma Gui still felt uneasy, so he suggested: "The lord can secretly pass through Hanoi County before, so that Feng Taishou of Hanoi County is ready to cross the river and march into Luoyang at any time; In addition, it is necessary to inform the Qingzhou Fangzhou Mu of the lord's arrangements in advance, so that Meng Wen can temporarily control Huang Hansheng's soldiers and horses in case of accidents. ”

Gao Shun felt that Ma Gui's suggestion was good, so he said: "Okay, when the time comes, let Meng Zhi be stationed in Luoyang, serve as the lieutenant of Sili, and be in charge of Hongnong County, Henan Yin and Hanoi County, he is the emperor's son-in-law, and he will sit in Luoyang, and outsiders will not say much; As for Hansheng, Meng Wen can bring my handwritten letter; Qingzhou will trouble Meng Zhen to go to a letter in advance and help me explain. ”

"Yes, my lord!" Ma Gui immediately responded.
