Chapter 362: Yuan, Cao

readx;

Yuan Tianlou "Dong Zhuo is a national thief, how can the widow refuse to be a righteous man?" Liu Tai shook his head with a smile and continued: "But the position of the leader of this alliance should never be held by this king, when there are countless famous people today, isn't Mr. Ziyuan a prince?" If the widow expected, most of the military rations that the princes asked for Dong were supplied by the gentleman's family, right? ”

Before Zang Hong arrived, Liu Tai got a news, that is, in order to eradicate the national thief Dong Zhuo, Zang Hong did not hesitate to donate all the grain in the clan, and recruited tens of thousands of righteous soldiers to be stationed in Chen County, commanded by Zang Hong's clan brother Zang Yuan, so that Zang Hong is actually one of the princes, and the army is not weaker than any prince. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At this time, Chen Jun Taishou is Zhang Miao, Zhang Miao and Zang Hong are good friends, in order to win over Zang Hong, Zhang Miao did not hesitate to send Yan County, Mengjin, Baima County Yu Zang Hong, which is equivalent to saying that Zhang Miao's move will be most of Chen County under Zang Hong's name, and although Zang Hong has no official position, he is also among the princes who compete for hegemony in the world.

"Hey king, your own family knows your own affairs, how dare the villain occupy the position of the leader of the alliance, if the king really has no intention of being with the leader of the alliance, please also ask the king to point out the person who can be the leader of the alliance at the moment, the villain and the princes of the world will definitely respect the king's opinion." Zang Hong naturally heard Liu Tai's words, it turned out that Liu Tai intended to give up the position of alliance leader to Zang Hong, but Zang Hong didn't want to be the leader of the alliance, after all, if today's situation is different from the original history, Yuan Shao is not in Hanoi, Cao Ying is not in Yuzhou, almost all the powerful princes in the world have gathered troops and sour dates, just one Zang Hong, not even Taishou, how dare to live above the princes of the world?

"Well, this is okay, the princes are a feat in the world to ask for Dong, and the widow can't help but contribute, so let's do it, the widow let Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, Xu Chu, and Zhang Jaw go south, as for the position of the alliance leader, it will be held by Yuan and Ying, Yuan is rarely famous, and he is the orthodoxy of the Yuan family, so he should be the leader of the alliance, as for Cao's exploits, everyone in the world sees it in the eyes, if he is the deputy leader of the alliance, no one should criticize him behind his back, right?" Liu Tai touched his nose, with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, although history deviated from the track, Yuan and Cao were still helped by Liu Tai to the position of alliance leader.

Some people may ask, Cao and Yuan will be Liu Tai's henchmen in the future, why does Liu Tai still support them to ascend to the throne, is it possible that Liu Tai really wants to be a murderous demon king and scatter the last vitality of the Han Dynasty? Otherwise! Liu Tai's move is a gesture! Let everyone in the world know that everything in Yuan and Cao was given by Liu Tai, such as the Lianghuai region under Cao Ying's command, if there is no Liu Tai, is Cao Ying qualified to sit on it?

Although fame and grace are not even a fart in this era, but they are very important to the real heroes, unless Cao Ying is really determined to change the dynasty, it is absolutely impossible to fight with Liu Tai, if he loses one or two games in the battle with Liu Tai in the future, he can also take advantage of the situation to invest under Liu Tai, for Cao Ying, Liu Tai has been laying out for a long, long time. Of course, Liu Tai has also been preparing for the position of the general of the expedition to the west that Cao Ying dreamed of.

In fact, in the past few years, Liu Tai has been communicating with Yuan and Cao, some things that the two don't understand, or confused, Liu Tai will take the initiative to speak out, when Yuan escaped from Luoyang, he even revealed to his entourage that he hoped to go north to follow Liu Tai, but Liu Tai rejected Yuan's kindness, after all, Yuan is also an indispensable prince in the future, if there is no Yuan, wouldn't it be a big disgrace for the princes to compete for hegemony?

The arrival of Liu Tai has changed a lot, and it has also made Yuan and Cao's ambitions infinitely fall to the bottom, most people understand that when the world chaos began, it may be the place where Liu Tai reorganized the mountains and rivers, and all the princes under him are just Liu Tai's plate meal, Liu Tai's layout has been too long, and it is too deep, except for some really arrogant princes, no one dares to compete with Liu Tai.

In the past few years, Liu Tai has had an idea, that is, after recovering Yuan, Cao and others, he will allow them to establish a dynasty! But this dynasty is not in the Great Han, but in Europe, and even in Africa! The outside world is bigger, is it necessary to fight in the nest? Yuan, Cao and others are all Yingjieer, wouldn't it be a pity if they died in self-fighting in vain?

"Yuan Cao" Zang Hong opened his mouth, although he had long known that it might be these two people, but when he heard Liu Tai say it in person, it was still a little unbelievable, all along, Liu Tai seemed to attach great importance to Yuan and Cao, and Sun Jian, the reason why Sun Jian was able to dominate Jingnan at the beginning was still due to Liu Tai, because Liu Tai had mentioned when he wrote to the imperial court that Sun Jian had the courage of a tiger and should not be trapped in Sanfu.

"What, doesn't Mr. Ziyuan agree?" Liu Tai looked at Zang Hong with bright eyes, a little playful, in fact, Zang Hong is really a little pitiful, for the loyalty in his heart, not only willing to give the money in the clan, but also thousands of miles, personally came to Huacheng to meet the big opponent of the gate valve Liu Tai, see Liu Tai, this requires a lot of courage for the gate valve clan, because Liu Tai has always had an impatient attitude towards the gate lord clan, if he angered Liu Tai and was executed on the spot, it is not impossible.

"No, no, how dare the villain be dissatisfied, but the army has not moved, Mr. Grain and Grass, now that there are many disasters in various parts of the Central Plains, the villain also asks the king to contribute a part of the grain and grass to alleviate the urgent need." Zang Hong shook his head, since the matter has been decided, Zang Hong must also offend Liu Tai by talking nonsense, only to see that Zang Hong's original expression was instantly retracted, and he said to Liu Tai with a respectful face.

"Payout?" Liu Tai was stunned, smiled, laughed very speechless, the princes of Shandong begged for Dong, in history, it was Jizhou Mu Han Fu who produced the grain, I don't think that now Han Fu went to Qingzhou, but the responsibility for the grain and grass fell on Liu Tai's head, is it a bit of a joke?

Of course, Liu Tai can't be an iron rooster, otherwise he can't say it, right? I saw Liu Tai looking at Zang Hong with an embarrassed face and said: "Mr. Ziyuan, you also understand that at this time, the northern Xinjiang is in ruins, and the widow general Wen Chou, and he also commands an expedition of 120,000 troops to the Western Regions, and the northern Xinjiang really can't take out too much grain and grass, well, the righteous soldiers are for my Han family, and this king can't let the righteous go hungry, right?" In this way, this king asked people to prepare 200,000 stones of grain and grass to send to sour dates, although it is not much, but the intention is to arrive, and I hope that Mr. Ziyuan will not blame it. ”

"Oh? General Wen went west? "Zang Hong didn't mention the matter of grain, 200,000 stone is indeed a lot, although Northern Xinjiang is rich, but it has been used in the construction of various places in the past few years, otherwise how can Northern Xinjiang be so prosperous? Liu Tai can produce these grains, which is already considered benevolence and righteousness, what else can Zang Hong say? However, Zang Hong really didn't know about Wen Chou's expedition to the west, because what the people outside knew was that Wen Chou led the army to transfer the Xiongnu troops stationed in the Western Regions, and there was no mention of any war.

"Yes, the Western Regions are going to war." Liu Tai touched his nose, Wen Chou's decision to go west to conquer the empire has reached Huacheng, Liu Tai did not say that he agreed, nor did he say that he did not agree, of course, he could not help but reveal his opinion, Liu Tai only said one sentence, will be outside, the monarch's order will not be accepted!

Liu Tai's meaning is obvious, the battle situation in the Western Regions, with a wave of his hand, all thrown to Wen Chou to take care of himself, win or lose, the generals of the northern Xinjiang will have to lead the troops to the west alone sooner or later, Liu Tai cannot have every opinion in place, but if Liu Tai had known that a big war was going to break out in the Western Regions, it might not be Wen Chou who was sent, after all, Wen Chou was too lacking in any strategic policy.

"Your Majesty, didn't the Huns surrender?" When Zang Hong said the words of the surrender of the Xiongnu, there was a trace of deep admiration for Liu Tai on his face, no matter how different his political views were, but Liu Tai opened up territory for the Han Dynasty and established his authority in foreign regions, which is an indisputable fact.

"The object of this battle is not the Huns, nor the Western Regions, but the more western Rest Empire, the Sabbath Empire with a million armor, mostly cavalry, the Emperor Vologis IV of the Sabbath Empire personally conquered the Western Regions, known as 500,000 troops, in fact only 350,000, but our army is only 120,000, hey" Liu Tai smiled bitterly, looking a little helpless, the 12 cavalry against the 35 iron cavalry of the old empire resting in peace, it is really a bit hanging, I just hope that Wen Chou will not be stupid and rest in a head-on battle.

"350,000 Iron Cavalry" Zang Hong's pupils shrank, a little frightened, 350,000 Iron Cavalry is not a small number, the Han murderer fought in Baishan, Zang Hong did not see it, but he could also think of that grand scene, this decisive battle in the Western Regions, Zang Hong still could not see it, but he thought that the victory of the Northern Xinjiang was definitely very low, because the Western Regions was an outer land, different from the prairie, and a variety of situations could occur at any time.

One of the biggest hidden dangers, is not others, but the problem of grain and grass, the Western Regions are far away from the northern Xinjiang more than 10,000 miles, the army goes out, at least to walk for more than three months, if the grain and grass are transported from the northern Xinjiang, not to mention whether to send it or not, but even if it is delivered, there is not much left, after all, there are more logistics troops, the consumption is greater, there are fewer logistics troops, and the grain is less, so it will cause a very embarrassing situation, the Tianci army is in the Western Regions, and can only collect grain on the spot, but the question is, is there still food in the Western Regions to supply the Tianci army? One can imagine how bad the situation of the Heavenly Army is now.

"Hey, in the war in the Western Regions, the villain is powerless." Although Zang Hong is very satisfied with the war between the Northern Frontier and the Western Regions, after all, this is to win glory for the Han people, but Zang Hong himself does not have the ability to sponsor the behavior of the Northern Frontier, and the Western Regions are far away from Xiliang, even if he goes to Xiliang, if he takes the land route, he doesn't know how long it will take.

Chen County and Huacheng are separated by thousands of miles, this time Zang Hong entered Huacheng, or from Qingzhou Donglai to board the ship to the right Beiping port, this is the waterway, all take more than ten days, if you take the land route, the time will be at least several times longer.

Since the Tianci army ascended to Qingzhou, the eastern part of Donglai County has been occupied by the northern Xinjiang, even if Han Fu took office as Qingzhou pastor, he could not recover the lost land of Donglai, Donglai is located on the edge of the East China Sea, by the sea, most of the area is suitable for building a seaport, if the Tianci army wants to continue to go south along the coast, it must occupy Donglai.

Qingzhou was still the territory of the Son of Heaven at that time, Liu Tai could not openly occupy the entire county, so he could only make some small moves in private, and occupied the three counties of Muping County, Dongmu County, and Changyang County in the east of Donglai County, which were all near the sea and were very suitable for building a seaport.
