When the beautiful scenery of the good day finally ended, Liu Yi just dozed off for a while, and then the sky was bright.

However, although he only closed his eyes for a while, Liu Yi was in good spirits, and did not wake up Mrs. Cai, who still had a smile on the corner of her mouth, and left quietly.

The women also got up early and prepared a qiē for Liu Yi.

After freshening up, having breakfast with the women, and Liu Yi, who was neatly dressed, officially left home, surrounded by a group of pro-soldiers, and went to the Xishan Military Academy to go to the general.

Some things seem to be really fixed.

Liu Yi's plan of action this time was really guessed by Yuan Shao.

Earlier, Liu Yi discussed with the ministers of the court, let the ministers of the court express their opinions, and Liu Yi synthesized everyone's opinions and thought about it deeply. I also felt that if I increased my army again to attack Yuan Shao's Yecheng from the north of Jizhou, it seemed that there was really no need for that. With the 300,000 or 400,000 troops of Tai Shici, Zhao Yun, and Gongsun Zhan, as well as some local New Han armies that are now newly organized, the strength is not much different from the only remaining military horse strength of Yuan Shao. Of course, if necessary, the three generals can recruit a large number of military horses in the two states of Hebei and Youzhou.

In addition, in Youzhou and Jizhou, there is also Xi Zhicai who is presiding over the overall situation, and there is no need for Liu Yi to participate in it at all. To be honest, even if Liu Yi increased his army and went to the northern area of Jizhou, there was only one way to storm Yuan Shao. This, if you really have to attack regardless of your own casualties, whether Liu Yi goes or not, I believe that Xi Zhicai, Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Gongsun Chan and other strategists and generals can completely win.

So, the discussion came and went. Liu Yi also believed that if you want to pay a relatively small price for casualties, it is like capturing Jingzhou. To seize the final fruits of victory, then the only way to disrupt Yuan Shao's current military horse deployment is to use strange and surprise attacks to disrupt Yuan Shao's current military horse deployment in one fell swoop. disturbed Yuan Shaojun's military morale, made Yuan Shao worry inside and outside, and the army's morale was discouraged. To achieve a soldier who surrenders without a fight, at least, you can use less casualties. Destroy Yuan Shao and seize the entire Jizhou.

In Liu Yi's heart, he was actually a little anxious, although not very anxious. But. I really want to unify the Han world as soon as possible. Especially seeing the current good development of the New Han Dynasty and the rapid development speed in all aspects, Liu Yi believes in his heart that with the current strength of the New Han Dynasty, it has completely possessed the strength and conditions to unify the entire Han Dynasty.

For the Han Dynasty, which has been in turmoil for a long time, the people of the world now have a desire to return to unity, pray for peace and tranquility, and yearn for great governance. Also give them a peaceful living environment. And the characteristics expressed by the New Han Dynasty are also the characteristics that can make the people of the world return to their hearts. A long time ago, Liu Yi himself, as well as the various practices of the New Han Dynasty, have proved to the people of the world that only by attributing to the New Han Dynasty can they, the people, have a truly good life.

The people of the Han Dynasty, as long as they have a certain understanding of the New Han Dynasty, can know how the people under the rule of the New Han Dynasty lived, especially the people under the rule of the New Han Dynasty, they never had to worry about being threatened from the outside world, under the protection of the powerful New Han Army, the princes of the world, the foreign races, there is no one who can threaten the security of the area under the rule of the New Han Dynasty. Often, even if there is a foreign invasion, the New Han Dynasty can destroy them outside their homeland, so that their evil hand will not reach the New Han Dynasty itself. This is enough to make the people of the world yearn for it.

Internally, in addition to the open-minded and appropriate administration of the New Han Dynasty, which greatly benefited the survival and life of the people, the blow to the local wealthy families who oppressed the good and exploited the people also won the hearts of the people. In particular, for some bandits and robbers who plagued the local people, etc., these affected the safety of the local people's lives, and the government of the New Han Dynasty spared no effort.

Think about it, after the Yellow Turban Riots, there were robbers everywhere in the Han Dynasty, blocking roads and robbing, killing people and setting fires, and slaughtering villages and towns at every turn, did such things happen rarely? However, looking at the current law and order situation in all areas of the New Han Dynasty, and looking at the territory of the New Han Dynasty's power, where is there still the soil for the survival of bandits and robbers? It turned out that those bandits and robbers who occupied the mountains as kings and were on the evil side have long since disappeared, and they either surrendered or were destroyed by the New Han army, and fortunately, they may have fled to the territory of other forces. Anyway, in the current territory of the New Han Dynasty, even if you walk at night, you won't worry about any roadblocks and robberies. However, the phenomenon that people do not close their doors at night and do not leave their roads behind is innumerable.

Anyway, now the people of the entire Han world, as soon as they hear about the New Han Dynasty, they all give a thumbs up and say yes, and their yearning for the New Han Dynasty is overflowing.

Such a situation is also why Liu Yi seized Jingzhou so lightly, and soon was able to stabilize the situation of Jingzhou, and let hundreds of people in Jingzhou obey the governance of the New Han Dynasty government, so that the policies of the New Han Dynasty government were quickly implemented, and the Jingzhou area was governed in a neat and orderly manner.

Similarly, Liu Yi believes that Jizhou will be the same, as long as in terms of military affairs, his New Han Army can completely control the situation, then the New Han Dynasty should not have much problem with the governance of Jizhou.

Therefore, the seizure of Jizhou, in fact, is not a question of whether Liu Yi is in a hurry or not, but about when Yuan Shao can really be destroyed, as long as Yuan Shao dies, the only remaining puppet government agency that now controls Jizhou will immediately disappear and be replaced by the official government of the New Han Dynasty.

In Liu Yi's heart, he always believed that if he wanted to destroy Yuan Shao, he only needed the last knife, and as long as this knife was stabbed in, then Yuan Shao's army would be defeated on all fronts, and it would no longer be possible to confront the New Han army.

And Liu Yi's dispatch of troops to Hanoi was the last knife of Yuan Shao.

You must know that as long as the army of the New Han Army reaches Hanoi, it is equivalent to giving Yuan Shao a fatal knife in the back, and in this case, Yuan Shao will guard the northern defense line in the area of Quang Binh and Yangping. It also completely lost its meaning all at once. When the time comes, Yuan Shao's military horses will still be like now. Do you still dare to confront the army of the New Han Army of Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, and Gongsun Zhan? I believe that they are afraid that it will be too late to surrender.

Therefore, Liu Yi's final decision was that now, there was no need for him to bother any more, and he could directly send troops from the Tiger Pass to attack Hanoi. One way or another. Such an action just hit Yuan Shao's soft underbelly, so that Yuan Shaoming knew that the New Han Army was attacking like this. It will make him very passive and helpless, but it will also make him helpless.

This is also the reason why the attack from the north of Jizhou was abandoned, as well as the attack from the Shangdang area.

Of course. Lewy now. Although he planned to send troops directly from the Tiger Prison Pass, he would not attack so rashly, and in these days, Liu Yi was giving orders to Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, and Gongsun Zan to inform them of his plan, so that they could attract Yuan Shao's attention in the northern area of Jizhou as much as possible, and let them be ready to break through Yuan Shao's defense line at any time. Preparation to receive the last site in Jizhou.

At the same time, although Liu Yi planned to attack Hanoi County directly from the Tiger Pass. However, it was not a complete abandonment of the convenience of launching an attack on Hanoi from Shangdang Huguan.

Liu Yi has already ordered Qin Jie, and then ordered Dian Wei to lead a total of 100,000 troops with him, and has entered the Shangdang area lightly, and let the government of the New Han Dynasty now set up in the Shangdang area gather a group of chiefs of different nationalities in the Shangdang area, and let them cooperate with the military and horse actions of Qin Jie and Dian Wei.

Yuan Shao's troops had heavy troops, and they had always been on guard against the New Han Army from Shangdang Huguan to Jizhou. According to some dangerous terrain, many barriers were set up. If the New Han Army wanted to attack the Shangdang area from Shangdang Huguan, the result might be similar to the defense line of Guangping and Yangping that attacked Yuan Shao from the north of Jizhou, and the New Han Army might have some damage. Therefore, Liu Yi only asked Qin Jie and Dian Wei to act when they saw the opportunity, and they could do what they could, and they could not do it, and there was no need to forcibly send troops to fight hard with Yuan Shaojun. It was enough for them to frighten Yuan Shaojun, get them to pay attention, and attract their attention. Of course, if you can break through their defense line and can wave your army into Hanoi County, then you can naturally wave your army to attack. When the time comes, they can attack Hanoi and the entire southern region of Jizhou at any time, eliminate Yuan Shao's local defenders, and disturb the military morale of the entire Yuan Shao army.

If the new Han army does not move, it will be done, and if it moves, it will fall in one fell swoop. Qi on three sides launched an offensive, making Yuan Shao unable to defend himself, so that he could take care of the head, but not the tail.

Anyway, Yuan Shao's troops are now mainly deployed in the cities around Guangping and Yangping to prevent the attacks of Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Gongsun Zan and other large armies. Secondly, the focus of defense is also the area around Shangdang Huguan. However, it is the Hanoi group, because it happens to be at the intersection of Cao Cao and Liu Yi's sphere of influence, Cao Cao Liu Yi of the tripartite forces, and Liu Yi's new Han army, generally do not wave troops out of the Tiger Prison Pass, which makes most of the areas outside the pass have always been in the hands of Cao Cao's military horses. Among them, he is separated by the Yellow River, which makes Yuan Shao's defense quite easy, he is separated by the Yellow River, and he cannot directly participate in the dispute between Cao Cao and Liu Yi, he is like an idler watching from the sidelines. Therefore, although Yuan Shao attached great importance to Hanoi Jun County, he did not need to send too many military horses to guard the river. In fact, if Hanoi County was attacked, Yuan Shao could also quickly mobilize troops and horses from Yecheng to Hanoi.

Therefore, intelligence shows that Yuan Shaojun in Hanoi County does not have many troops, and most of them are arranged on the banks of the Yellow River at those ferry checkpoints to and from Henan.

As for Yuan Shao's current troop arrangement, the intelligence department of the New Han Dynasty has indeed worked hard, and I dare not say that Yuan Shao's army can know everything in detail, at least, how many troops Yuan Shao has now, where they are deployed, which one general will lead the army, etc., such information, the intelligence department of the New Han Army can still find out.

Therefore, Liu Yi consulted with a group of advisors in the court, believing that the New Han army launched an attack on Yuan Shao from three sides, which would inevitably cause Yuan Shao's army to be in turmoil. At the very least, Yuan Shao's troops will inevitably be mobilized. At that time, no matter which side of Yuan Shao mobilizes troops and horses, it will weaken the defensive strength of which side, so that the New Han Army will have a chance.

For example, Liu Yi is now sending troops from the Tiger Prison Pass, and Liu Yi can also imagine that Yuan Shao will definitely have spies watching his movements, if his army is out of the Tiger Prison Pass, Yuan Shao doesn't know, then it is not Yuan Shao.

Therefore, troops were sent directly from the Tiger Pass to attack Hanoi County. Liu Yi knew that Yuan Shao would definitely know soon, and. It is also possible to make corresponding arrangements for this, and will mobilize military horses to block themselves. Do not allow their new Han army to cross the Yellow River north and go north to Hanoi.

Well, this, Liu Yi didn't say that he had to attack Hanoi, this, mainly depends on Yuan Shao's military horse mobilization. Anyway, if Levio is now. After leaving the Tiger Pass, he waved his army to the south bank of the Yellow River and looked across the river from Hanoi County. If Yuan Shao is prepared. has already transferred military horses from other defense lines, so he can confront Yuan Shao's military horses across the river, while letting people find out where Yuan Shao's defensive strength is weaker now. Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Gongsun Zhan, Qin Jie, and Dian Wei can be notified. Attack the weak links of Yuan Shaojun, so as to maintain contact with the military horses of all parties and be flexible.

As for the fact that the soldiers will enter Cao Cao's territory when they leave the Tiger Prison, Liu Yi doesn't care much about it.

In fact, it is what Xun You and Cheng Yu said to Cao Cao. The non-aggression treaty between Liu Yi and Cao Cao really did not have much binding force on both sides. At most, it can only be used as a room for the two parties to talk. Just avoid a real Armageddon now. Usually, privately. The military horses of both sides have a little friction or something, as long as Liu Yi and Cao Cao do not expand it, it will not have much impact.

In other words, Xun You and Cheng Yu reminded Cao Cao that there is no need to be too nervous about the New Han Army, and there is no need to weaken oneself. Then, Liu Yi had already seen that he would not deliberately avoid friction with Cao Caojun because of that piece of paper. What should it be, what should it be, even if it is really a decisive battle with Cao Cao now, what then?

Lan Ji's Lanling tribe, as well as those alien races in the desert who submitted to the New Han Dynasty, they sent a total of 100,000 elite cavalry troops, and now, the whole army has changed to the standard equipment of the New Han Army, and all of them have used the sophisticated weapons and armor of the New Han Army.

The reason why Liu Yi wanted to send Dian Wei as Qin Jie's deputy general to attack Jizhou Hanoi from Shangdang was mainly due to the fact that Dian Wei was a landlubber, although he was not ignorant of water, but thinking of the rapids of the Yellow River, if Liu Yi really wanted to dive across the Yellow River, he was really not suitable, so he would send Dian Wei to attack Hanoi by land with Qin Jie.

In this way, Liu Yi was left with only one general. Of course, Yan Liang and Wen Chou are waiting in the Tiger Prison Pass at the moment, and if necessary, Liu Yi can also let the two generals attack Hanoi with him.

In addition, like Shi A and other senior brothers, they naturally want to follow Liu Yi's side.

This attack on Yuan Shao was the first time in Liu Yi's history that he did not bring his own woman.

Yuan Qing, Huang Wudie, Zhang Ning, Yin Xiao and other women, Liu Yi didn't bring any of them. This, mainly because Liu Yi considered that if he really wanted to sneak across the Yellow River and attack Hanoi, in the face of the Yellow River, it would not be a simple matter to smuggle over, if women like Yuan Qing and Huang Wudie had to act with Liu Yi, in the turbulent river, Liu Yi was not sure that they would be safe.

Therefore, Liu Yi simply let them rest in Luoyang for a while, and there was no need to go with him.

The Xishan Military Academy is not too far from the Xishan Imperial Mausoleum, and Liu Yixian led the courtiers to the Xishan Imperial Mausoleum Temple.

Well, in Liu Yi's heart, although he is not too concerned about some traditional actions.

For example, the emperor of the imperial court, every year, has to sacrifice to the temple and the sky on some specific days, and in addition, every time a major event occurs, he must also worship the sky and pray. Anyway, whether it is to send troops to fight, or to pray for the blessings of the people of the world or something, there are many activities to worship the temple and worship the sky. Often, the more tranquil the period, the more such activities there will be.

Among them, there are some sacrifices that are good, and Lewis also believes that some traditions should be preserved. However, if there is no need to do so, we should stop holding these activities that cost people and money at every turn.

This time, the temple was sacrificed to the courtiers, who thought it should be held.

The courtiers in the court believe that now Liu Yi's every move will be concerned by the people of the world, and what Liu Yi represents is no longer himself, but the entire New Han Dynasty, and even, on behalf of the royal family, on behalf of the emperor. Therefore, properly holding some temple worship ceremonies can make the people of the world more attentive to Liu Yi. At the very least, it can make some people think that Liu Yi can even represent the gods.

Liu Yi was noncommittal about this statement, but holding some traditional positive temple worship activities can indeed make some people feel more at ease.

After the temple ceremony, Liu Yi met the young emperor at the Xishan Imperial Mausoleum.

He seemed to be living very peacefully in the Xishan Imperial Mausoleum, and he actually dared to put on an indifferent appearance of a monk in front of Liu Yi, which made Liu Yi feel a little crying and laughing.

In the end, Liu Yi told him that it was okay to cultivate the Tao, but he could not officially become a monk. In two years, he will marry a wife and continue the incense of the Liu family. At this point, Liu Yi cannot be rejected by the young emperor, and I believe that the queen He Wan will not let the young emperor really become a monk.

Therefore, Liu Yi now sued him early, so that he should be mentally prepared first. Of course, if he already has a woman he likes now, he can also let Queen He Wan Zhang Luo do it as soon as possible. If not, Liu Yi would not ask, and He Wan would find a candidate for the young emperor. (To be continued......)
