Outside the plain city, the drums rumbled, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

All around the school grounds, heralds waved various flags and ran back and forth, shouting loudly, and all kinds of orders came out like water.

The smoke and dust rushed to the sky, but it could not hide the dazzling brilliance of the armor horse, the tall and sturdy war horses lined up in a neat queue, under the skillful control of the cavalry, sometimes formed a circle, sometimes turned into a triangular pyramid, sometimes sonorous and powerful shouts, galloping horses.

Wang Yusu stood on the podium next to the school, but his face was not serious at all.

"How? Kong Ming, the supply problem of the West Road is solved! ”

Wang Yu flicked the letter paper in his hand, and said with a fluttering eyebrow: "Everyone in Montenegro is really reasonable, and they only ask for a two-percent increase in grain prices...... Tsk, how does this work? It's too much for the villagers to suffer, Kong Ming, wrote back to General Sun, telling him that twenty percent is too little, and at least fifty percent will go up! The soldiers who participated in the Northern Expedition were all pillars of the country, and the people who supported the Northern Expedition were also loyal and righteous people, how could they suffer losses? ”

Wang Yu was a little carried away with joy, but Zhuge Liang could understand.

The significance of the opening of the door of the three western counties is very significant, which marks that the relationship between Qingzhou and Montenegro has entered a new stage. But the most pleasing thing is the cooperative attitude of the Montenegrin army.

Being able to pass through the three western counties and raise grain and grass on the spot can greatly save Qingzhou's expenses. The loss of grain and grass transportation is more than one or two times higher than that of grain itself? The famous saying that thousands of miles of food, and the soldier is hungry is not empty words. If grain is transported from Wei County to the front line in Zhongshan and Changshan, how much more will it cost? I can't stop it several times!

With the cooperation of the Black Mountain Army, the Yulin Army can quickly advance in the early stage, and there is no need to worry about the mid-term hold, no matter whether it advances or retreats, it is much calmer. How could Wang Yu not like it?

"Lord, Liang has a question, I don't know if I can ......"

"Oh? There are doubts, but it doesn't hurt to say. "Wang Yu is on the rise, and he has no intention of doing so.

"My lord, you should have already decided on this, right? That's why it was expected that the Yulin Army could be the last to come first and enter the Juma River? If it weren't for seeing Wang Yu Lecheng's appearance, Zhuge Liang really had some doubts, whether Wang Yu had already calculated - from the time of the Gaotang Alliance. He calculated Zhang Yan's character and prepared the groundwork for today's food raising.

But if you think about it, if you can even calculate this, it would be too godly.

Zhang Yan didn't show much ambition in the past, and that was due to the situation. A mountain king who has eaten the last meal but not the next, if he dreams of competing for the world all day long, even if he is not ashamed, don't try to persuade others to go crazy with him? After having the land of the three counties, who dares to guarantee that Zhang Yan will be so honest and not think about anything else?

"I do have some ideas, but I didn't expect it to go so smoothly......" Wang Yu replied casually.

Zhang Yan has no ambitions, which has been verified in history.

Before Yuan Shaoquan took Hebei. Zhang Yan has been joining forces with Gongsun Chan to fight the enemy, and until the eve of Gongsun Chan's destruction, Zhang Yan was still trying to rescue him. Compared with receiving the great favor of Gongsun Zhan, after occupying Xuzhou, he only cared about expanding his territory. Liu Bei, who didn't have the intention of going north to Qingzhou and getting in touch with Gongsun Zhan, Zhang Yan was simply a saint.

And after the fall of Gongsun Zhan, Zhang Yan had no intention of giving in. has been unyielding to Yuan Shao. But when the battle of Guandu was over, Zhang Yan directly surrendered Cao Cao. It didn't show the tenacity of the previous one at all. After the surrender of Cao, this famous veteran disappeared so silently, and no active deeds were seen in the scriptures.

In addition to having no ambition, there is no way to explain all this, and it is clear by comparing Liu Bei.

As for the extent to which Zhang Yan is not ambitious, Wang Yu is not very sure, it was not until Zhang Yan began to farm in the three counties that Wang Yu found out that this Feiyan general really has the potential of a saint, he is a way to the dark, without hitting the south wall and not looking back.

"So, at first, I just wanted to try, anyway, there is no danger to defend in the three counties, and if Zhang Yan makes any changes, it will be easier to deal with than when they were in Montenegro. Later, when I saw how seriously he farmed, I realized that he was a good man. Wang Yu's words were sincere, but Zhuge Liang heard another meaning.

He reminded: "You are so confident, aren't you afraid that Zhang Yanyang will disobey the yin, hide the knife in his smile, and repeat the mistakes of the Battle of Guanze?" ”

After the Qin State became strong, it once adopted the strategy of attacking and inbreeding from afar, so there was a battle of Guanze through Han Wei and Vaqi. In that battle, the Qin army came to have the upper hand, but halfway through the battle, Han Wei suddenly stabbed him in the back, and the result was tragic, and it became an allusion to the opposite of the false Taoist allusion.

Wang Yu frowned slightly: "It shouldn't be possible, what good can this do him?" Isn't it because he wants Hu Lu to join the Kou and trample on the three counties he has worked so hard to manage? ”

"It's hard to say, people's hearts are unpredictable, even if Montenegro doesn't sneak attack our army, it can cut off the supply source of our army."

Zhuge Liang shook his head and pointed out the possible omissions: "As long as the Montenegro side raises by two percent, but you take the initiative to help them raise the price, it is a little inappropriate." I heard that Zhang Yanren was opposed, but he couldn't resist everyone's wishes and reluctantly did it. Raising prices can certainly stimulate the enthusiasm of the people in the three counties to sell grain, but if some people see the benefits and hoard them, wouldn't it be a bad thing? ”

"Makes sense, too." Wang Yu thought about it carefully, it was really possible.

The rise in grain prices may increase the enthusiasm for grain sales in Montenegro, but it may also lead to a reluctance to sell. Especially after the Yulin Army crossed, if the supply mainly relied on the supply of the three western counties, it was likely to make people feel that it was a strange commodity to live in, no matter what era, the herd effect existed, and this section was indeed to be worried.

However, thinking of transporting grain from the rear, Wang Yu had another headache, and the dispatch of the army seemed to be majestic, but it was hard, who was really in charge and who knew wow.

No wonder the old man said: The daily cost is a thousand gold, and then the army of 100,000 is raised. Fighting a war is a bottomless pit, and there is not enough money to fill it.

But this battle must be fought, the envoy of the imperial court has already arrived in Wei County, and the rumor has already spread to Youzhou. Intelligence shows that Liu Yu has no intention of returning to Beijing at all, but is actively mobilizing troops and horses and spreading the word to all parties, obviously wanting to fight a-for-tat battle.

The arrow is already on the line, and no one can stop it!

"Can you think of a way in Zhongshan and Changshan?" Wang Yu asked suddenly.

"What do you mean......" Zhuge Liang didn't react for a moment, unless it was directly captured from the enemy's granary, his own lord fought a war, and it seems that he had never engaged in the act of giving food to the enemy, so he was in a hurry?

"Is it to buy some local tyrants or something? There must be some rich people there, right? It doesn't take too much, just find some competitors for the three western counties. Wang Yu muttered to himself, suddenly patted his head, and suddenly said: "Wrong, I can't ask you about this, I should ask Zilong, it's right to ask Zilong, it's his hometown." Someone ...... coming."

The order came out, and Zhao Yun, who was training his troops, quickly rushed over.

"Haoqiang in Zhongshan and Changshan?" Thinking that Wang Yu was asking about the training situation and the progress of the new formation, but he heard an insignificant question, Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment before replying: "Yes." Not only that, but one of the famous families in Zhongshan also sent people to Qingzhou, and finally participated in the Dongdu fleet and was received by you. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Wang Yu thought about it, he didn't expect that there were any special people, there were too many things to deal with, and his memory seemed to have deteriorated, he shook his head and asked, "Which one is it?" ”

"Wuji Zhen." Zhao Yun replied.

"Boundless...... Zhen? Wang Yu blinked: "Sounds a little familiar?" ”

Zhao Yun smiled and said: "No wonder the lord is familiar, the Zhen family is a prominent family in Hebei, Zhen Gongyi has served as Cai Ling, and his official reputation is quite good, and he is famous...... Mrs. Zhang is a native of Changshan Zhending, and Yun is a neighbor, the lord swept Yuan Shao a few years ago, and there is a meaning of crossing to the east, and his son Dao came to visit the old door, so he knew it. ”

Zhao Yun explained in detail, but Wang Yu didn't realize it until he heard the word 'his son', and he suddenly realized that the Wuji Zhen family was not the maiden family of the beautiful Luo Shen Zhen Mi?

Okay, let yourself be bumped.

Yuan Xi doesn't seem to be an adult, so presumably that Luo Shen is not very old now...... Wait, what are you thinking? There are still a lot of fiancées in Mi Mansion that need to be solved urgently, and Mi Zhu is not less bitter, if there is another one, it will be really ......

"My lord? Are you listening? Seeing Wang Yu's expression changing, sometimes gritting his teeth, sometimes his eyes fluttering, Zhao Yun couldn't help but worry.

"Ahem, it's okay, maybe I've been a little tired lately and wandered." Wang Yu came back to his senses, hurriedly perfunctory the topic, and asked, "Where is that Mr. Zhen Dao now?" Are you still in the expedition fleet, or are you back with Ziyi? ”

"He's back, and a few days ago he came to say goodbye to the general, saying he was going home." Zhao Yun asked suspiciously, "Is there anything wrong with this person?" ”

"No, I just want to find out something about him and make a deal." Wang Yu felt slightly regretful.

It's not a pity to see Zhen Mi's problem, Yuan Xi is only in his early tens, that Luo Shen must be just a Lori, Wang Yu lacks everything now, that is, there is no shortage of Lori, and I am not interested in finding another Lori to put by my side, I can see it or not.

It's just that the Zhen family can be selected by Yuan Shao as a family, presumably its reputation in the local area is very good, and Yuan Shao's marriage with him can use the influence of the Zhen family to stabilize the place.

For Qingzhou, the Zhen family can also play this role, the herd effect, the most important thing is to take the lead, choose the leader, and the matter will be more than half successful.

And Zhen Dao's participation in the East Ferry fleet was undoubtedly to show goodwill, but he missed it in person, which is indeed a pity. Now that this person has suddenly returned home, could it be related to the Northern Expedition?

If so, then it's the best. If not, things are a little tricky.

ps: There is a Zhen Ji mother and daughter flower in the second place in the reader's impression, I don't know what the allusion is, it seems to be very popular, and there are many people who know. Xiaoyu can't find it, but Roselle is still going to play after all, if there is an explanation, Xiaoyu will refer to it, if not, you can only treat it as if you haven't seen it~
