In the Chang'an General's Mansion, Xu Shu knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Without further ado, please ask the general to decide, don't let the thieves rise and harm the people!" ”

On the main seat, Deng Ji was still groaning, Xu Shu raised his head, and said excitedly: "Han Sui Ma Teng has been in the west for many years, and Qiang and Han are mostly his wings, and they respond to every call. Now the general wants to calm the trouble in Liangzhou, and the strength of the four armies is particularly insufficient, so why not make the four places guarded? Although the plan set by the two military advisors was proper, the war dragged on for a long time, and the people in the border areas were victimized by the western thieves, not to mention that Sizhou was also trapped in the western affairs for a long time, and there was no way to solve it! For such a long time, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Biao, Liu Zhang, and Zhu Xiong saw the benefits, sent troops to attack, and suffered from the enemy on their backs! In the past two or three years, the heroes will face each other together, and the soldiers will be brave and difficult to fight, and they may only try to be trapped in the land of the three rivers in Guanzhong! ”

Soon after Xu Shu returned, Ma Teng reconciled with Han Sui again, and the news of preparing for Dongkou also came, and this mission was a complete failure.

Ma Teng Han then joined forces, plus the big and small heroes from all over Xiliang, at least they could gather more than 100,000 horses, even if they gathered 200,000 horses, it was not difficult, but Deng Ji was only prepared to deal with more than 20,000 people. Xiliang himself is fierce, almost ten times his own, which can be described as the first big battle that Deng Jisheng encountered.

When the Xiliang army is formed, the troops are unstoppable, but fortunately, the princes from all walks of life are mixed, the hearts of the people are not aligned, and it is difficult to raise so much grain and grass, which is not sustainable. According to Tian Feng Jia's plan, when temporarily avoiding the edge, the wall is cleared, the people are moved, and the Tianshui Longxi is relocated, and only the three auxiliaries are strictly guarded. Take advantage of the momentum. His army was in disarray. Fang looked for an opportunity to break it again.

Xu Shu suggested that Deng Ji should ignore the east first, quickly gather the strength of the four armies, and fight to the death with the Xiliang army.

There is no doubt that Xu Shu is a strategist-type talent in historical interpretation, but at this time, the feelings of the young ranger have not diminished a few points. On this mission, Xiong Zhi and other guards died heroically, and they were full of anger. It was so aroused that he could not restrain himself, and resolutely opposed the war of attrition with the Western Liang Allies.

It's just that this suggestion is too risky, Deng Ji thought about it for a while, and Fang sighed: "Yuan Zhi should know that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's Kwantung tigers and wolves covet the side, how dare I transfer away from the defenders and welcome them with a void?" ”

Mo said that Deng Ji stayed very leniently, but on the contrary, Xu Shu also dared to argue with reason at this time: "Looking at the general trend of the world, Liu Biao's dog is really not to worry; Cao Cao hurriedly took Xu Yu and used his troops to the east. There is no time to take care of anything else, and the army is suffering from the shortcomings. Stay in Xiahou Yuanle into the division stationed in Yingchuan, only to prevent the Sizhou army from going out of the pass to attack and disturb again, and have to do it, if you hear that the Xiao cavalry army is transferred, you will urgently recruit the Yingchuan army to help, trying to destroy Liu Bei, Yanzhou can be safe; The fall of Gongsun Zan in Youzhou is imminent, how can Yuan Shao easily give up Hebei and make all his previous achievements abandoned? If you are worried about the two high-ranking cadres of the state, Yuan Shang and the others, you may be able to ask Montenegro to help and harass and contain them! The four armies of Sizhou are all riding, and they come and go, if they break the Xiliang army with the momentum of thunder, and shock the world, the heroes will not dare to offend again! If it is as before, only caring about guarding the four places, what is the difference between the general and Liu Biao and others? And although Guanzhong has geography, it is more dangerous than Jingzhou - don't forget, general, Sizhou is all enemies! If you only can't hold on to Xiliang, when Yuan Ben originally decided that Cao Mengde of Youzhou would have Xu Yu, and the wolf looked at Guanzhong, the soldiers were only tired of guarding, and they were afraid that they would become increasingly embarrassed, and the manpower would be irretrievable, and a catastrophe would come! ”

Those who can enter the hall to discuss matters are all wise men in the world, and after listening to Xu Shu's analysis here, he was shocked, and Tian Fengchou was even more in a cold sweat on his back, and he kept reflecting.

Xu Shu said that the situation was so serious, but it made a lot of sense, no one in the hall squeaked, and it wasn't until a while later that Zuo Fengyi and Deng Zhi broke the silence and said: "People have no long-term concerns, they must have near-term worries!" What Xu Beijia said is not without a target, we all need to be careful! It's just that according to the strategy of other driving, gather the four strong armies under the command of the general in Xiliang, and break the thieves of Ma Teng Han for a while, and it is difficult to eradicate the rebellion in Liangzhou, and when the remnants of their army retreat back to the old land, it will be difficult to govern in a few years, return to the old situation, and take the risk only for small profits in front of them, which is not taken by the wise! ”

The land of Xiliang is vast, since the end of the Han Dynasty, the large and small forces of the Qiangqi Hao clan have risen and fallen, it is difficult to count, never a day has been safe, with Deng Ji now tens of thousands of troops, it is the ultimate to hold the existing territory, that is, to gather the whole army, it may be possible to defeat Ma Teng Han Sui, but now the operation of Liangzhou is not enough, so it was decided before that the general's mansion was moved to Chang'an, and it took several years to slowly sort out.

The people of Xiliang are arrogant and xenophobic, and even Xu Shu has to admit that if an external force like Deng Ji wants to completely occupy Liangzhou, he must at least double the number of soldiers under his command, even if he defeats Ma Teng Han Sui for a while, in the face of various rebellions one after another, the annexation of Liangzhou is only a luxury. After Deng Zhiyan, Xu Shu got up and replied: "What Deng Bomiao said is reasonable, but if you can defeat Ma Teng Han Sui in one battle, persuade one or two rebels to surrender with might, govern Xiliang with cool people, and leave an army in the west to defend it, and there will be no more trouble in the west within three or five years, and the rest of the strength will be transferred to defend the eastern part of the country, and the princes will not dare to commit lightly, and Sizhou will be safe!" The most lacking thing for a general is time, every time he cultivates for a year, he becomes stronger and stronger, and he can have stability for several years, isn't it good? Living in Guanzhong and watching the changes in the world, when the opportunity comes out, who else can compete? ”

Today's Deng Jiwei is becoming more and more famous, and in the hearts of the people of the world, he is already a person whose force is gradually similar to Dong Zhuo and Li Wei. However, Tian Feng, Jia Xu, Xu Shu, and Deng Zhi are well known, under the rule of Sizhou, the four borders are peaceful, the people are rich and the soldiers are strong, the government has sufficient money and food every year, and there are more than 10,000 new soldiers.

After Deng Zhi and Xu Shu talked, the hall was silent again, and seeing that no one spoke again, Tian Feng sighed: "What Yuan Zhi saw can be described as extremely clear, and Feng is ashamed!" Staying in a high position and not observing the crisis is a mistake of abundance! However, the risky plan did not dare to agree, and Gai Henan and Hedong did not dare to lose! If thousands of new soldiers are added in the coming year, and Zang Ba's military guard army is completed, Hedong has the power to protect itself, and the Kou army can still be transferred to come here, but now it is just too hasty! ”

Cao Jun was fighting with Liu Bei endlessly, so he started to attack and disturb, and the army was also outnumbered, and he couldn't pose much of a threat. But the Xiao cavalry army was transferred, although there were two partial generals in Henan, Gu Sheng and Wu Ning, but they had to guard the passes, and no one dared to protect them.

Tian Feng is conservative, but it is not easy to follow Deng Ji step by step to get to today, and the achievements of Henan embody the countless painstaking expectations of him and Tian Chou and other old people, and he is really reluctant to take such a big risk.

And Yuan Shao has forced Gongsun Chan to be trapped in a lonely city, seeing that Gongsun has been destroyed, if he leads to the original heart, the army goes south, or Yuan Shang invades the border, and there will be war in Hedong and Hanoi.

The land of Hanoi, now all over the dock forts, there are still Han Hao Panshi troops stationed, and Yuan Shao can also deal with one or two, Hedong Zangba's military guards are still less than a thousand people, if Xu Shu's proposal, the Dangkou army will be withdrawn, Hedong County will almost have no defenders, and the dock fort in Mintun has not yet been formed, it can be said that it is completely open, and the door is open to thieves.

As a human being, he always has to constantly weigh the pros and cons, knowing that what Xu Shu said is reasonable, Cao Cao is busy recruiting Liu Bei and Yuan Shao to destroy Gongsun in a hurry, I am afraid that I will not have time to take care of Deng Ji for the time being, and I don't dare to take risks to gamble easily: Henan County is the fundamental place to start, the population and taxes are stable, and the people's will is desirable. Hedong County has the advantage of salt and iron, so that Sizhou does not need to be raised by others.

If the four armies under his command were gathered to fight with Ma Teng, Han Sui and other Western Liang allies, they would not be able to stabilize Liangzhou, but they would put the two most fundamental and critical counties of Deng Ji at risk of falling, even if the risk was not too great.

The crisis described by Xu Shu is not ridiculous, but which is more important, everyone can think about it, the two military advisors Jingzhao Yin Tianchou Zuo Feng Yi Deng Zhi Chang'an made Yang Fu speechless for a while, and after a while, Jia Xu smiled leisurely: "Ma Teng Han gathered a large army, not as fast as our Sizhou army and horses, but one or two months can still do kung fu!" ”

When everyone's eyes turned to him, Jia Xu said with a smile: "Jiang Xu, Liang Kuan, Zhao Qu, and the new group of the three schools, there are not enough soldiers, and the battle formation in front of them is not usable, why don't you send them to Henan to assist in defense?" ”

"Feasible!" Tian Chou's eyes suddenly lit up, the new group of three schools, there are only more than 1,000 soldiers in each school, they have not yet experienced the battle formation, and they are all from Liangzhou, I am afraid that some of them have something to do with Ma Teng and others, and they are embarrassed to be useful, but it is not bad to send them to strengthen the defense of Henan County, with these 3,000 men and horses to assist in the defense, Zhao Yunzhi's Xiao cavalry can be transferred away.

Being able to combine the strength of the three armies against Ma Teng and Han Sui, Deng Ji was already satisfied, but Xu Shu was still reluctant, and asked Jia Xu: "Henan County has replaced the cavalry with the new pawns of the three schools, and the left army division of the Dangkou Army in Hedong County can be transferred out?" ”

Jia Xu did not sell Guanzi: "The Wuwei Army has not succeeded, the situation in Hedong is only because of the outnumbered soldiers, and the high-ranking cadre Yuan Shang looks at the outside and restrains Xu Dangkou, in my opinion, it is better to take it!" Don't wait for the enemy to attack me, the Dangkou army will first break the enemy in the state with lightning speed, and then transfer Xiliang to participate in the battle, how about it? ”

As soon as the poisoner said this, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, and only Tian Fengshang had questions: "Sending out the army to break the high cadre Yuan Shang first, and then turn to Xiliang to solve the periphery, this plan is naturally excellent, but if it takes a long time to make the Dangkou army fall into the war, Ma Teng Han will come, won't we fight in two places?" ”

"The enemy of the state, Xu Huang can fight it!" Compared with the ministers, Deng Ji was a little more arrogant: "I can't take it, and someone will take over, I should connect with foreign aid to take and annex the state, so that after the First World War, the high-ranking cadre Yuan Shang will no longer have the power to invade the south!" ”

Connecting with foreign aid? Tian Chou, Deng Zhi, Yang Fu and the others all reacted, and said in unison: "Just when Zhang Yan of the Black Mountain is united!" ”

Zhang Ping is difficult to be caught in Yuan Shao's forces, the more difficult the life in the Taihang Mountains is, and he wants to face the great gift sent by Deng Ji, but he can't help but be unmoved, the big thief of Montenegro, Kou Kou is not moved, and the Dangkou army is out of the army, and he is unable to occupy the state, but the later things can be left to Zhang Yan to do.

It's that Zhang Yan can't take all the states, and after this year, Hedong can defend itself! (To be continued......)
