In desperation, Cao Cao could only press the anger in his heart, look for merchants, and began to sell resources, coal and other materials, although they were not mined, but the background was there, the merchants appraised, and then gave the corresponding price, Cao Cao decided to sell to them, as for the mining labor or something, Cao Cao can provide, but the wages are paid by the merchants, so it is conceivable that the merchants will push the price to what extent.

The major businessmen will definitely not come forward to negotiate with Cao Cao in person, but only send some management personnel, otherwise Cao Cao will lose his life in anger, and it will be a little uncost-effective.

After selling three coal mining sites, Cao Cao calmed down a little, and used the money in his hands to buy rice and grain from merchants.

The resources mined by the Xiliang Army are not only coal, but also cement, but to make cement, the nearest materials are not like coal, and they need a specific place to produce.

Cao Cao is busy raising money, Jia Rong is also busy living, how to defeat Cao Jun as quickly as possible, once the decision is made to fight Cao Cao, all the officials will move, each performing their duties, soldiers, horses, food and grass needs and the jihua of the battle, all need to be formulated specifically, soldiers are the major affairs of the country, especially the Daliang State has just been established, a victory will make the whole country rejoice.

Jingzhou in the hands of Liu Bei, has achieved a certain development, in the hands of Zhuge Liang such a strategist governance, for a time there has been no mistakes, Liu Bei gradually found that Zhuge Liang invited out of the mountain was how a knowing decision, this strategist is not only proficient in the strategy of the battlefield, but also knows how to govern the place, many opinions and insights, are refreshing.

Because of this, Liu Bei's trust in Zhuge Liang is getting heavier and heavier, and many things, Liu Bei didn't even look at it, and directly approved it.

However, Jingzhou has experienced the previous war with the Cao army, although it has achieved victory, the lack of combat effectiveness of soldiers in the army and other shortcomings are also reflected, and many military powers are in the hands of generals, and it seems that it is not very easy for them to hand over the power in their hands, for the defense of the Cai family, Liu Bei has always attached great importance to it, Jia Rong ascended the throne and became the emperor, Cai Mao's sister is one of Jia Rong's wives, although the officials of Liangguo do not admit that they have anything to do with the Cai family, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that once Cai Mao chooses to take refuge in Liangguo, The status is the royal relative.

Liu Bei is a member of the royal family, nominally assisting Liu Qi, naturally he can't make drastic moves, the emperor of Jingzhou has changed from Liu Cong to Liu Qi, it seems that the people of the world have no reaction, because all eyes are focused on Liangguo, Liu Qi is a descendant of the royal family, ascending the throne and becoming the emperor, it will not cause any turmoil, and Jia Rong is an out-and-out commoner who got up, called the emperor and overthrew the imperial power of the Han Dynasty, which really stimulated the people of the world.

But at present, there are very few people in the world who can argue with the Xiliang Army, even businessmen from all over the world, who are also unheard of and secretly support the Xiliang Army.

"My lord, now that Jia Rong has ascended the throne and become the emperor, this is against the will of heaven, and the world is bound to be turbulent and devastated." Zhuge Liang said earnestly, why didn't he see that Jia Rong was fledgling, no matter what means he had, it would have no effect, the troops could not compare to others, and he had never heard that he could win by relying on righteousness alone.

"Kong Ming's words are true, but the Xiliang rebels are strong, and even the Cao army has been repeatedly defeated under his command, let alone Jingzhou." Liu Bei's tone was a little unconfident, over the years, although he had not fought with the Xiliang army, but when he saw a glimpse of the whole leopard, he asked the weapons and armor that were given to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to be so high-quality, not to mention that the generals in the Xiliang army were ten times more terrifying than the Cao army, I heard that when Jia Rong attacked Bingzhou, he only led 50,000 soldiers and horses, and the Bingzhou was almost pacified, and when he attacked Jizhou, it was still 50,000 soldiers and horses, and the strength of the besieging side was far less than that of the defending side, what kind of concept is this, Liu Bei felt a little chilly when he thought about it.

"Lord, Jingzhou is the land of four wars, and there is Cao Cao and Sun Quan outside, and there is no danger to defend, but there is one place, which is the best place for the Zhongxing Han Dynasty."

"Where?" A gleam flashed in Liu Bei's eyes, and his tone was full of eagerness.

"The country of Yizhou Tianfu is fertile for thousands of miles, and the surrounding passes can be defended, and a husband is not open, even if the Xiliang army is in Yizhou, it is not pleased, and the land of Yizhou, the mountain roads are rugged, and the cavalry is difficult to exert combat power, and the ancestors of Gaozu occupied Yizhou in the past, so there was the Han Dynasty." Zhuge Liang said slowly.

"Kong Ming, Liu Yan of Yizhou is a relative of the Han family, he has governed Yizhou for many years, and he has been conscientious, if he takes it, I am afraid that he will be ridiculed by people all over the world." Liu Bei said.

"The lord, the shore of the land is not the king's land, and now Liu Qi is the son of heaven of the Han Dynasty, a holy decree to go down, if Liu Yan dares not to obey, it is against the mandate of heaven, the lord raises troops to ask for it, it is also a matter of course, not to mention, Yizhou is not so stable on the surface, it is said that Zhang Lu occupies Hanzhong, does not obey Liu Yan's orders, the lord can use this name, support Yizhou, assist Liu Yan to pacify Yizhou, and then justifiably take it for himself, it is said that Liu Yan is already seriously ill, soon died, Yizhou is weak, this is a God-given opportunity, After owning Yizhou and Jingzhou, it will continue to develop, and when the Central Plains changes, the two sides will send troops at the same time, which will definitely achieve miraculous results. ”

"Okay, between the military and the division, I don't know how many soldiers and horses are needed to attack Yizhou, and whether the money and food will be enough?" Liu Bei said, now he is the minister of the court, but the main force in his hands is still the soldiers who followed him at the beginning, even if you add the defeated troops of Cao Cao, there are only more than 20,000 people, and it seems that it is not enough to attack Yizhou.

Hanoi County, has become the Xiliang army must attack the place, although the previous battle will be Cao army from Luoyang, but Cao Cao's heritage is still there, the army is stationed in Hanoi County, many generals, for a time, Jia Rong did not attack, and now the national strength is at its peak.

Attacking Hanoi County is not trivial, the Hanoi County guard is the Cao army general Xiahou Dun guard, Xiahou Dun is Cao Cao's very trusted general, but also commands the Cao army's most elite tiger and leopard cavalry, but after the battle of Jingzhou, the tiger and leopard cavalry lost more than half of the number of people, the strength was greatly damaged, and the Cao army fell into a financial crisis in a short period of time, and the number of tiger and leopard cavalry did not increase.

Above the court, Jia Rong sat on the dragon chair, looking at the civil and military officials below, with pride and ambition in his chest, for a moment, it seemed that the whole world was at his fingertips, and these civil and military generals under his command had been tempered a lot, and many of them were in charge of their own affairs when they were put outside.

"The wind and rain in the Liang country are smooth, the treasury is solid, the soldiers are training hard, the generals are working hard to conquer and expand the territory, and now I want to include Hanoi County in the territory of the Liang country, I don't know which general is willing to be the vanguard?" Jia Rong said lightly.

"The Last Wish." "The Last Wish." As soon as the words fell, several generals stood up.

Jia Rong nodded and said: "The military general is willing to use his life, which is the luck of the Liang country, and I am very pleased, but the soldier is the major event of the country, for the general, we must know how to cherish the lives of the soldiers under us, and do not make meaningless sacrifices, otherwise I am not a haode general, a pioneer, every mountain to open the road and fill the bridge, when fighting, it is the pioneer of the army, cutting the general to capture the flag, and rushing to kill the enemy." ”

"Can General Ma have the confidence to take on this heavy responsibility?" Jia Rong's tone changed, and he set his eyes on Ma Chao, after many battlefield experiences, Ma Chao can be said to have grown up, not the child who always loved to follow him back then.

"The last general will definitely live up to the holy mission." Ma Chao knelt down on one knee and bowed.

"Well, it's very good that General Ma can have this determination, after I go back, I will gather my troops and horses and wait for the holy decree."

"No."

"The attack on Hanoi County is a major matter, and the Hanoi defenders are the famous generals of the Cao army, Xiahou Dun, who commands the tiger and leopard cavalry, and the tiger and leopard cavalry has a combat power that is not inferior to the cavalry of our army, and it must not be underestimated."

"The commander of the army, General Huang Lao will be the commander, and the deputy commander, General Jiang, will work hard, order all the soldiers and horses, and wait for the holy decree." Jia Rong said.

In fact, the distance between Hanoi County and Luoyang is too close, even if there are 30,000 soldiers and horses in the city, the people and merchant families in the city still have no sense of security, mainly because the Xiliang Army is too strong, so strong that it is prohibitive, the world, it is difficult to find the army that can be compared with the Xiliang Army, strict military discipline, high morale, orders and prohibitions, every team can be called the name of the elite soldiers.

"Zilong, what do you think about attacking Hanoi County?" After the next dynasty, Jia Rong left Zhao Yun and Jia Xu and others.

"Saint, the soldiers of my Daliang Kingdom are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, and 50,000 people have been battled, which is enough to pacify Hanoi County." Zhao Yun's tone was full of confidence, and now Zhao Yun is the former general of the Liang Kingdom, and his status can be said to be the highest among the generals.

"Well, Hanoi County is not to be worried, but Cao Cao's territory is vast and there are many soldiers, so it will not be able to be pacified overnight." Jia Rong's tone changed and said: "Jingzhou, Yuzhou, borders our army, it is not impossible to attack them." ”

Looking at Jia Rong's smile, Zhao Yun was shocked, it turned out that Jia Rong's purpose was not a county in Hanoi, but Yuzhou and Jingzhou, in this way, the fate of Jingzhou and Yuzhou can be expected, Jingzhou needless to say, with Liu Bei in charge, although there is resistance, it still seems a little insufficient, as for the boiling Zhuge Liang who has been rumored in the world recently, Zhao Yun has not yet put it in his eyes, under the absolute strength, any conspiracy and trickery is a floating cloud.

"Father-in-law, after you go back, let Chen Lin write a rebellious article and publish it, so that the whole world will know, but all this is aimed at Hanoi County, and Cao Jun must feel the firmness of our army's will to attack Hanoi County."

"No." Cai Yong replied respectfully, although he is Jia Rong's father-in-law and a relative of the emperor, Cai Yong has never said things with his own identity in the court, and he is an official in the three provinces, with a high position.
