Chapter 421: Ingenuity
Everyone looked at it, and King Li also inserted the sign in his hand, which was Yanjin Port and Wuchao. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Li Wang was not idle, and continued to insert some smaller signs, all of which were some small counties around the village, in order to let them understand more clearly the situation around this black nest.
Liu Ji thought about it carefully, and only said for a long time: "I think it is feasible to set Wuchao as a grain station, but it is inevitable that Cao's army will make a detour from Jiyin to sneak attack, and a general who can fight well must be stationed there. ā
At this time, there was a cry of asking to see outside the crowd, and it was Tai Shici who rushed over.
King Li laughed: "It's better to come well than to come at a good time, Berwin, Ziyi has been fighting with me for a long time, and he has made great contributions, the Wuchao granary is the first priority, and only he can do the work of sticking to the granary, so he can ensure that nothing goes wrong." ā
Liu Ji only had a preliminary understanding of Tai Shici, and did not study it too deeply, so he was noncommittal at this time.
Wang Shouren said with a smile: "General Taishi is loyal and sincere, the best at steadily seeking, and he also knows the danger to win, if he is the general of the black nest, it is a little overkill, but this war is no more than others, grain and grass is the top priority, and General Taishi can only worry about it." ā
King Li nodded and ordered someone to let him in.
Tai Shi Ci hugged his fists and said: "The last general will see His Highness." ā
Helped him up with a smile: "There is no need to be rigid in the army, Ziyi come and take a look at this thing." As he spoke, he pulled him up and gathered around the sand table and explained to him, which surprised him.
turned to say: "Ziyi, although you are a general of Pingbei, but I don't worry about Wuchao, I think about it, you have to pick up this matter, a little bending, what do you think?" ā
Tai Shi Ci was moved: "For the general, you should share the worries for the lord, and then you can attack, retreat and defend or the words given to me by His Royal Highness, let Ziyi take responsibility today, that is, to defend the rear for you, and to defend the enemy as one, it is also a plan, how can you mention the word grievance." ā
King Li sighed, patted him on the shoulder and said: "So it's decided, this matter is up to you to prepare immediately, later I will repair the book Yecheng, and order Uncle Zhang to coordinate the grain and grass, and send it to Wuchao, you mention some soldiers of your army, and after the banquet, you can set off." ā
Tai Shi Ci hugged his fists and said: "To serve His Highness, you can't be determined unless you die." ā
Nodding and not saying any more, he pointed to the Tiger Prison Pass and said: "Everyone, please see, here is connected to Songyue in the south, the Yellow River in the north, the mountains are staggered, and it is a natural danger, and there is more Luoshui flowing through here, protecting the city wall, if we want to break the city gate, we must be clever." ā
Everyone followed the signs, and when the place names were marked, they fell into their own thoughts.
As the eastern gateway of Luoyang and an important pass, the Tiger Prison Pass is named after King Zhou Mu who imprisoned the tiger here, but as the world's well-deserved first male pass, it is like a moat, lying in the hearts of everyone.
King Li said with a smile: "You don't have to worry, the last time the princes of the Eighteenth Route attacked Dong, although they gathered an army of 300,000, but their hearts were not aligned, they would be stopped here by Lu Bu's 50,000 Xiliang soldiers, but our army is different, today we are working together, plus our soldiers and horses are all elite soldiers, even if Lu Bu is alive, I can send him to hell again." ā
Li Wang said it easily, and many soldiers felt that it should be so, but Liu Ji and the others didn't think so.
Cao Cao, don't look at him at this time is not eye-catching, but as long as you study him, you can know that this person is extraordinary, from the beginning of the county soldiers and horses that he relied on, but he can be on an equal footing with Yuan Shao when the princes are allied, and can also make those princes with ghosts happy and convinced, this kind of ability is rarely done.
After that, don't look at him for nothing, but secretly he has stored grain and money, recuperated for several years, recruited soldiers and horses, and then obtained Yuzhou out of control, just in terms of wealth, compared to Tao Qian's Xuzhou.
And recently it is even more extraordinary, although the right to speak in the court has been suppressed, but he has no intention of fighting, otherwise he can only rely on his breath to act as an emperor with his ability.
Liu Ji has never underestimated any enemy, including Cao Cao.
"Your Highness, our army is coming from afar, although it is not tired, but the enemy army is stubborn, and it is difficult to pry open the city gate, so in order to avoid excessive casualties, why not make some noise about morale?"
King Li hurriedly said: "Does Berwyn have a good plan, why don't you help me quickly." ā
Liu Ji said: "His Royal Highness has a great relationship with Cao Mengde, the battle of gentlemen should not be too treacherous, why not order the soldiers under his command to fight alone, as long as three games are defeated, it will definitely make the morale of the enemy army decadent, and our army will definitely be able to overwhelm the other party in momentum." ā
King Li frowned and asked, "Even so, Cao Cao can not hold out, with the wealth of Si Li, our army cannot be overwhelmed in all aspects." ā
Liu Ji said with a smile: "It's okay, our army's financial resources are not inferior to him, and taking natural risks is not a one-time effort, at this time, His Royal Highness can send an elite army to go out left and right." ā
King Li was stunned, and immediately shook his head and said, "No, since I have made an appointment with Cao Cao to fight the tiger prison, how can I say it?" If you rashly improve the route and fall behind, even if you get Luoyang, you will be criticized. ā
"Hehe, Your Highness is too worried, what I said is not true, at this time, it has to be tied to Gongjin and General Zhao."
Li Wang was stunned: "How can you say this?" ā
Liu Ji looked at Zhou Yu with a smile and motioned for him to come and say it himself.
Zhou Yu said: "Your Highness, the intention of the military advisor is not Cao Cao, but in Xuzhou. ā
"Xuzhou?" Li Wang frowned and said, "Didn't I say that there is no rush here?" ā
Zhou Yu said with a smile: "Your Highness is not busy refusing, the matter in Xuzhou is indeed not urgent, but it is related to the success or failure of the Tiger Prison Pass and the situation in the south, so it must be taken." ā
King Li simply shut up, even though he had first-class intelligence, he didn't dare to say anything more, and motioned him to continue.
"Your Highness, the day before yesterday, there was news from the south, Li Shiming, the governor of the navy, ordered Huang Gai and others to be generals, leading an army of 50,000 to Jingnan, and the Jiangxia he originally captured was even more stationed, which made Liu Biao people panic, if I didn't look away, Li Shiming's intention was not in Jingzhou, but in the land of Nanyue further south."
King Li was taken aback and said: "How is this possible, Li Shimin only captured Changsha the year before last, Changsha is Lingling to the south, and then Guiyang, so the road is not thousands of miles, then Nanyue is adjacent to the sea, the road is farther than the end of the world, is he crazy." ā
Liu Ji said at this time: "Li Shimin is not crazy, this is his cleverness." ā
Li Wang felt that his brain couldn't keep up, so he could only listen.
"Jiangdong people are good at water warfare, there are countless warships and ships, South Vietnam is far away to disturb the surrounding area, has become a big trouble, Li Shimin is not incapable of obtaining Jingzhou and Yangzhou, but he clearly knows that the situation in the Central Plains is now in a short period of calm, and the news of His Highness's conquest of Cao Cao is also circulating, so he wants to defend the Yangtze River first, stabilize the rear, and wait for His Highness's battle line to get longer and longer, and then find an opportunity to plot."
