"You don't have to worry, I've decided to ask the craftsmen to create a batch of horses right away, and with them, these problems can be solved!" Feng Yaoxin said with full receiving. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As soon as Feng Yao's words came out, he immediately attracted the curiosity of several people, and then Feng Yao had to explain what a horse shoal was.

……

Early the next morning

The family came to report that there was a person surnamed Liang Mingteng outside the door, and he was in a hurry to see.

When Feng Yao heard that it was Liang Teng, he wondered in his heart, didn't he let him act in a low-key manner, why did he come to me so directly, didn't he want everyone to know the relationship between the two, but thinking about it, it had been a few days, and he was also trying to find out how Liang Teng's buns were spreading, so he asked his entourage to take Liang Teng to the study for a private meeting.

As soon as Liang Teng saw Feng Yao's face, he knelt down and said, "Lord, I have already renovated those private houses, started selling steamed buns, and recruited three more subordinates!" ……”

But before Liang Teng could finish speaking, Feng Yao interrupted him and said with a displeased face: "Liang Teng, you came to see me openly to say these things?" Have you forgotten what I told you at the time, don't come to me openly in the city! ”

Liang Teng hurriedly fell to the ground in fright, and when Feng Yao finished speaking, he said: "Lord, I didn't come because of these, these things are to give the little one another hundred guts, and the little ones don't dare to mess around, this time it's because the little ones received the news from the shopkeeper Yuan in Puyang!" ”

"Oh, I see, then why didn't you say it earlier!" As soon as Feng Yao heard the news about Puyang, his face immediately became much more solemn.

In order to prevent the news from being known by outsiders, Yuan Ping used word of mouth, Liang Teng straightened up and said: "Lord, Puyang news, Cao Cao frequently transferred troops and horses between places, and it is estimated that he wants to attack Puyang again!" Shopkeeper Yuan asked how to arrange the next step! ”

When Feng Yao heard this, his face became heavy.

Cao Cao, this is pressing step by step! I don't know if Lu Bu can withstand it this time, if according to history, Lu Bu only withstood one attack, originally thought that Cao Cao would not act so soon, but I didn't expect that it was only a month, and Cao Cao was ready to move again! Could it be that because of his own reasons, Cao Cao also began to come out of historical order?

At this time, Feng Yao had only just recovered half of Runan, if he immediately turned his face openly with Cao Cao, he was afraid that it would not be conducive to the development of the future, if he didn't care about the battle between Lu Bu and Cao Cao, Feng Yao was worried that if Puyang really broke through, the Dragon Gate Inn would not be implicated, and in Feng Yao's entire layout, Lu Bu was a key chess piece! Feng Yao didn't want to see Lu Bu being beaten by Cao Cao and retreating again and again.

"Liang Teng, you go back first, send someone to sue Yuan Ping, don't reveal your identity until you have to, even if Cao Cao breaks through Puyang City, you must continue to lurk! I'll take care of the rest! Feng Yao said.

"Yes, little retirement!" Liang Teng cautiously exited the study and left.

After Liang Teng left, Feng Yao thought about it for a long time, and finally decided that he wanted to speed up the pace of recovering Runan, and only by gaining a firm foothold on the territory of Runan as soon as possible could he have the ability to deal with Cao Cao, and his father Yuan Shu's side, Feng Yao didn't want Yuan Shu to take the initiative, because Xuzhou had another enemy, Liu Bei, so according to the current situation, Feng Yao could only help Lu Bu!

Can't wait for Wei Yan to come! There must be a full-scale war in three days!

Of the thirty-seven counties in Runan, there are now eighteen counties that are Feng Yao's, in addition to Zhou Cang, the counties that Ji Ling forcibly captured, the other nine counties are automatically surrendered, and the official document of Toucheng has been sent to Ruyin first, and the grain, grass and soldiers and horses of Shanggong will take a few days to arrive.

After Feng Yao made his decision, he immediately raised his account.

The people involved included Ruyin Ling Chen Dao, Captain Dai Ling, Captain Cheng Gu, Escort Xu Chu, Yang Wu in person, and several strategists Zhiyue.

Feng Yao told everyone about the latest movements of Cao Cao's army and explained his decision.

After everyone was silent for a while, the strategist Zhiyue said: "Fu Jun, I think that since Cao Cao dares to attack Puyang only a month after the defeat, according to his character, he must have the confidence to win, so I think Cao Cao must unite with Yuan Shao!" ”

Cheng Gu said: "I think it is unlikely that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao will be united, Yuan Shao will be repaid, unless Cao Cao can show enough sincerity, otherwise it depends on whether Yuan Shao supports Cao Cao!" ”

Chen Zhi said: "Lord, I agree with Ziqing's opinion, Cao Cao's actions are often beyond the expectations of ordinary people, the more others think it is impossible, the more Cao Cao will choose, and on the other hand, the battle between Yanzhou Lu Bu and Cao Cao, if Cao Cao can't win this time, I'm afraid that his momentum will plummet, and in the end it may be that everyone may betray and leave, and uniting with Yuan Shao can only be his only choice and the most beneficial choice for him!" ”

Feng Yao nodded, it was true that Cao Cao had been allied with Yuan Shao until the Battle of Guandu in history, so thinking of this, in order not to let the generals argue on this issue, he opened his mouth and said: "Regarding whether Cao Cao will Yuan Shao again, don't discuss it anymore, Cao Cao will definitely unite with Yuan Shao, not possible!" ”

When everyone heard Feng Yao's affirmative tone, they were secretly shocked, if Yuan Shao and Cao Cao formed an alliance again, the situation would really be very unfavorable to their side.

At this time, Xu Chu said loudly: "Cao Cao once wanted me to lead troops to attack Chen Liu, presumably he must have set a big plan to deal with Chen Liu, and there is only one Chen State between us Runan and Chen Liu, in my opinion, it is better to directly lay down Chen Guo first, so that it can also be connected to Lu Bu's territory, which is not better!" ”

As soon as Xu Chu's words came out, everyone was startled, can Runan still sit firmly, so he will go to fight Chen Guo? Although the Chen Kingdom is not big, there are only more than ten counties, but it is the fief of the Liu Dynasty! If you go to fight Chen Guo and don't say if you can fight it, then you won't offend the court immediately! This Xu Chu is too daring to think about it!

Although Feng Yao was shocked, but after thinking about it, if he stabilized Runan, it would be a good plan to attack Chen Guo, the surroundings of Runan are Yingchuan, Chen Guo, Liang Guo, Peiguo and other places, and the other two directions are one of his father's Yangzhou, and the other is Liu Biao's territory in Jingzhou, with Feng Yao's current strength, it is not a self-help to touch Liu Biao now? In fact, there is nothing to worry about when you beat Chen Guo, you can just occupy its territory, and you don't want to kill King Chen, so the court won't be angry about it!

"Zhongkang, your proposal is good, but it's not right now, we have to wait until the whole of Runan is recovered!" Feng Yaodao.

Xu Chu didn't expect his suggestion to be appreciated by the lord, and said happily: "Lord, I Xu Chu only listen to you, I will fight wherever I ask Xu Chu!" ”

Xu Chu's blunt remarks caused several people to laugh out loud, and at the same time, their confidence increased.

Dai Ling has always said little, and he didn't say much at this time.

Zhi Yue said again: "Since this is the case, we will follow the plan of the lord and prepare to attack in three ways to quickly recover Runan!" ”

The generals nodded in unison.

Feng Yao said: "Since we all agree to go on the expedition, then let me talk about the arrangements for the attack first!" ”

"Chen Dao, Ruyin is still guarded by you!"

"Yes!" Chen should arrive.

"Dai Ling, in this campaign, I order you to be the vanguard, lead 5,000 people, and set off in three days to capture Gushi County, which is one hundred and fifty miles to the west!"

"Subordinates obey!" Dai Ling Road.

If Dai Ling takes away 5,000 soldiers, the city will only have less than 8,000 troops, and 3,000 will be left to defend the city, so the rest can only be led by Feng Yao himself. There are also Du Heng and Lei Xu, and Cheng Gu's soldiers and horses have been handed over to Zhou Cang, so there are no soldiers and horses to bring for the time being.

Feng Yao glanced at Cheng Gu and said: "Cheng Gu, in a few days, the county soldiers from each county will arrive in the city one after another, and I order you to select three thousand soldiers and horses from them to go north to meet General Zhou Cang, and the specific matters will be arranged by Chen County's order!" ”

"Yes!" Cheng Guxi said, I thought that I would not go on this expedition.

"I will personally lead 5,000 troops to escort grain and grass, and set off in four days to support Dai Ling as the second way!" Feng Yaodao.

The generals had no objections, so Feng Yao ordered each general to go down to prepare for the expedition, and at the same time sent someone to inform Zhou Cang on the north road, and Ji Ling on the south road launched an attack to the west at the same time three days later, and sent someone to inform Zhou Zheng not to turn back to Ruyin, and directly attack with Ji Ling's department.

Feng Yao's headquarters originally had sixty-one war horses, plus this new twenty war horses, it has reached eighty-one, if the soldiers and horses of the nine counties can arrive in these four days, there will be another forty-five increases, and there will be 126 war horses at that time, Feng Yao wants to make up the number of a song, that is, 113 horses, plus one of his own, as long as 114, the other 12 war horses in addition to 10 to Cheng Gu's guards, there will be two more, these two Feng Yao want to stay in Ruyin and wait for more to form a song of war horses.

The composition of Feng Yao's 5,000 soldiers is as follows: 500 elite dead sword and shield soldiers plus 500 miscellaneous soldiers, Xu Chu's 500 Xu family saber and shield soldiers plus 500 miscellaneous soldiers, Lei Xu's 500 spear elite soldiers plus 500 miscellaneous soldiers, Du Heng's 500 elite short archers plus 500 miscellaneous soldiers, Zhao Wangjun Sima led 1,000 miscellaneous soldiers to escort the army with heavy grain and grass, Liu Shun led 100 scouts to investigate the enemy's situation, and more than 100 cavalry were led by Yang Wu as Feng Yao's personal companion.

A total of more than 28,000 troops and horses were mobilized in the entire Runan offensive plan, which was divided into three lines: the southern, northern, and central lines, and a total of six routes of troops and horses marched westward. There were 6,000 soldiers of Ji Ling on the southern line, 3,000 soldiers on Zhou Zheng, 6,000 soldiers on the northern line, 3,000 soldiers on Cheng Gu, 5,000 soldiers on the middle road Dailing, and 5,000 soldiers on Feng Yao.
