Chapter 652: Contact Guo Da
"Chen Lin's kid has a good demeanor, you must make good use of it, it is best to be able to exhaust Cao Cao's scolding, and while attacking Yuzhou, you must also let Chen Lin prepare the article." Zhang Li on the side said.
The Xiliang Army now not only has banks, but also newspapers, with the support of the intelligence network, these information can be transmitted to all parts of the Central Plains at a very fast speed, setting off a wave of public opinion, especially after the newspaper came out, it has attracted a lot of people's attention, and now in the places under the rule of the Liangguo of Luoyang, many people are accustomed to reading the life of the newspaper, and the price is not expensive.
"How's Guo Da's contact?" Jia Rong set his sights on Jia Xu.
"Qiqi Sheng, there should be no problem on Guo Da's side, and Guo Da's military advisor Yu Dan also secretly went to Luoyang, and now he is living at the post station." Jia Xu replied.
"Well, yes, in the land of Yuzhou, our army is bound to win, the Central Plains has fertile land, and the princes don't know how to govern, they only know that they are poor and strong, and they waste money and food." Jia Rong sighed, if he had the land of the Central Plains before, there would not necessarily be the current situation, everyone knows that the land of the Central Plains is fertile, but at the same time, there are many more pretenders, and they fight for the sake of interests, Cao Cao is in these battles, and gradually has a vast land, but at the same time of the conquest, there is a lack of sufficient governance, and the harvest of the people is poor, so there is naturally no enough deterrent.
"Wenhe, I heard that your eldest son is very good, let him come to my side to do things in a few days." Jia Rong said casually.
"Thank you, Holy Ron." Jia Xu bowed respectfully.
"There is another war, and there will only be more things in the military department, and there will be more trouble with Lao Wen and Duoduo."
"The Holy One has spoken heavily, and this is a matter of humble duty." Jia Xu arched his hand.
After leaving the palace, a group of officials congratulated Jia Xu, it was a great honor to be able to send the children of the family to Jia Rong to do things, but Jia Xu didn't think so in his heart, the most ruthless since ancient times was the emperor's family, although Jia Rong had just ascended the throne as the emperor, it was difficult to guarantee that Longyan would be angry in the future, what kind of things would he do.
But the eldest son sent to the palace, it does represent Jia Rong's favor to himself, from Jia Rong in charge of the Xiliang Army to the present, there are few things that directly promote the children in the family, Jia Xu is the chief military advisor of the Xiliang Army, and it is now the secretary of the military department, with a prominent position and great honor, although Jia Xu has always been very low-key, no one dares to ignore his influence.
The Xiliang army made a lot of fanfare, denouncing articles flying all over the sky, and there was a great opportunity not to take Hanoi County to Jiashi, which once made the Cao army panic for a long time, the treasury was empty, and when it was fighting, it lacked enough confidence, and every time the Xiliang army launched a war, it was a situation of never dying.
"Lord, the Western Liang Army's attack on Hanoi County is already well known, I'm afraid it's not that simple, the Liang Kingdom has just been established, and a big victory is needed to enhance Jia Rong's prestige."
Cao Cao nodded slightly, "Yes, Jia Rong has always been cunning, presumably he has another plan, and now that the Jingshi of Liangguo is close to Jingzhou in Yuzhou, could it be that he is plotting Jingzhou?" ”
"I don't know, Yuzhou has tens of thousands of troops of Guo Da, even if Jia Rongxing has 50,000 soldiers, it is difficult to capture, and Jingzhou is guarded by Liu Bei, and it is also assisted by Zhuge Liang, the strength cannot be underestimated, as long as the defense of Dongjun is strengthened."
"Order Guo Da to defend Yuzhou tightly, not to have the slightest slackness, and tell Yuan Rang to guard Hanoi County, not to go out of the city to fight with the Xiliang army, as long as the city is guarded, the counties along the way, can not send troops to support, and guarding the city is a great achievement." Cao Cao said, Hanoi County is the closest place to the Xiliang army, Cao Cao also invested a lot of money, the defenders of a county alone almost reached 50,000 people, and the defense of each county was unprecedentedly strong.
"Lord, Yuzhou Guo Da, is it trustworthy?"
Cao Cao's gaze suddenly sharpened, making the strategist can't help but shrink his head.
"Since General Guo defected to our army, he has been conscientious, and when he attacked Jingzhou, he spared no effort, and he will say such words again in the future, otherwise don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless."
"No."
The strategists were in their hearts, I was afraid that today's events would soon reach Guo Da's ears, and as a result, Guo Da would be more loyal to Cao Jun's command.
What is the emphasis on in this era, that is, the death of a confidant, no matter how much ability you have, you can't get the appreciation of others, only a way to bury it, and when a prince reuses you, soaring, even if the name is left in history, it is not known, those who live in seclusion in the mountains are not necessarily people who see through the world, and some of them are not reused, and retreat depressed.
And Guo Da was just a Yellow Turban general who rebelled against the Han Dynasty, after some hard fighting, he had some strength in his hands, but he still couldn't get into the eyes of the great princes, and the Han Dynasty talked about combat effectiveness, it was the combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban soldiers that was the lowest, a group of ordinary people put down the farming tools in their hands and became warriors, how useful it could be, that is, the Yellow Turbans that were caught when they saw people would have such a team, which was also the reason why the Han Dynasty was always able to defeat tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops with a small number of troops.
took refuge in the princes, many Yellow Turban generals couldn't stand the importance at all, such as Zhang Yan, the commander of the Yellow Turban in Montenegro, how majestic he was at the beginning, and took refuge in Yuan Shao's account, no matter how big or small the battle was, there was basically no room for him to play, of course, it had nothing to do with the credit, until the fall of Jizhou, Zhang Yan took refuge in Liangguo.
Cao Cao is confident that Guo Da will not have any connection with the Xiliang Army, because for so many years, Guo Da has been very peaceful in Yuzhou, developed his strength, and also played an important role in the battle of Jingzhou.
Walking in the heavily guarded palace, Yu Shan felt a little frightened, five steps, one post, ten steps and one sentry, and the liliang who was secretly guarding was countless, it can be said that the Xiliang army had one-tenth of the liliang, which was used to defend the palace, even if there were generals in the city who mutinied, it was difficult to break through the palace, and the defense here was absolutely anywhere in Luoyang, even heavy weapons such as crossbows and thunderbolts were also equipped.
"Meet the Holy One." Yu Shan Bi bowed respectfully to the ground, his tone was extremely respectful, but he insisted on letting Guo Da take refuge under Jia Rong's command, it turned out that his vision was very sophisticated, Guo Da's eyes were brave and good at fighting Cao Jun and Xiliang Army After the confrontation, everything was revealed, but the matter of taking refuge in the Xiliang Army has always been a secret in the Yellow Turban, and even the previous General Zhou was ordered by Guo Da in advance.
"Well, get up." Jia Rong stood at the top and said lightly.
At this time, there were only Jia Rong and Yu Dan in the hall, and Yu Shan still felt a little uneasy, mainly because the power of the person above was too strong, and he was a little out of breath, as if in front of him, any conspiracy and trickery would come to naught, and all the small means could not hide from those eyes, and any secrets in his heart could not be hidden.
"You can tell me about the situation in Yuzhou."
Yu Shan didn't dare to look directly at Jia Rong's gaze, and bowed his head and replied: "Qi Qi Shengshang"
"Look at me."
"No." Yu Shan told Jia Rong about the situation in Yuzhou, without missing any details.
An hour later, Yu Shan left the palace, his back was already soaked with sweat, although there was only Jia Rong in the hall, but he did not dare to relax in the slightest, and thoroughly felt the majesty of the Son of Heaven, the more such a person, the more people dare not despise, before he saw Jia Rong, he thought that this emperor who was born as a military general must have a rough personality, and now when he sees it, he will clear all the worries in his heart, Jia Rong has promised that after Yuzhou is pacified, he and Guo Da will govern Yuzhou together, what a privilege, If it is placed among the officials of the Xiliang Army, it will take at least five or six years of experience to be able to take charge of one side and cooperate with the most talented figures, which makes him frightened at the same time, he is also very relieved, with such a lord, why can't he make a difference.
Horse-drawn carriages transported grain and grass materials to the battlefield through cement roads, and Ma Chao's 3,000 vanguard troops had already set off three days ago, supporting grain and grass replenishment weapons in various counties along the way.
The war has begun, Ma Chao is full of spirit, must be after this battle, the reputation will be completely started, in the past, the vanguard army was basically served by Lu Bu or Zhao Yun, and now it is on him, which means that his ability has been trusted, and he has entered the core of the general, the vanguard position, which is the easiest to establish credit, and it is also the hardest.
"All cheer up, especially the scouts who spy on intelligence, not only to pay attention to their own safety, but also to always pay attention to the situation on the battlefield, once there is a disturbance, report immediately, the usual training, now will be used on the enemy's body, if anyone makes a mistake, this general will definitely not be polite." Ma Chao shouted loudly, and his cavalry stood on horseback, listening quietly.
The 3,000 vanguard army carried only enough grain and grass materials for ten days, and from Luoyang to attack Hanoi occupied by Cao's army, if you are fast, you can reach it in one day, and the distance between the two sides is very close.
It was Jia Rong who finally overrode public opinion and placed the capital in Luoyang, which has a ready-made imperial palace in Luoyang, which can save a lot of expenses and provide a strong backing for the Xiliang army's conquest, and Luoyang is located in the middle of the world, and it will play a very important role in ruling the entire world in the future.
In this conquest of Hanoi County, the merchants led by the Mi Jiawei family donated nearly 200 million money, which is not worth mentioning compared with the benefits they obtained from Cao Jun's rule before, and the Chamber of Commerce unconditionally supports the army's war, because in the war, they can obtain greater benefits.
Once the war is opened, the profits of the merchants are also very huge, in the past, the merchants were in a free state, that is, the soldiers on both sides would not attack, which is also a tacit, otherwise the materials needed for the war are somewhat difficult to obtain, especially the sharp weapons created by the Xiliang army, which are even more popular with the princes.
