Chapter 197: The Kanto Heroes! (Above)
"General Cao Bao, the prime minister of Langya, and the general of Fubo, Chu Zimou, have led the main force of Langya State to leave Xiacheng and are marching towards Langya City, and are about to go to Tiger Pass."
"I'll inform the lords of the various counties."
Cao Bao moved to Tan County, south of Xiacheng, and had secretly gathered 50,000 Xuzhou soldiers and horses.
Cao Bao secretly informed several great lords of the Donghai Kingdom, Pengcheng Kingdom, and Xiapi Kingdom. These lords did not participate in the campaign against Dong Zhuo.
For them, if they can't defeat Chutian, who is in the Langya Kingdom, there is no point in participating in epic battles and national wars.
The great princes of Chutian were worried that Dong Zhuo would sweep the Eastern Han Dynasty, while the other lords of Xuzhou were worried that Chutian would sweep Xuzhou.
"We, the lords of Taishan County, also want to participate in the operation to carve up the Langya Kingdom."
"Don't keep it a secret. There is a wolf guild in Langya that secretly helps Chu Zimou collect information from players. Therefore, this operation can only be known to the lord level, and it is guaranteed that no news will leak. ”
"The East China Sea Kingdom can form a coalition army of 40,000, plus Cao Bao's 50,000 Xuzhou Army, there are 90,000 troops, which is the main force for the division of Langya State."
"Xiapi can send 30,000 coalition troops."
"Peng Chengguo can send 30,000 coalition troops."
"Taishan County can send 30,000 coalition troops."
"150,000 people in total. Last time our alliance was destroyed by Chu Zimou, and this time his main force left Langya Kingdom, we will definitely win. ”
When Chutian came to Langya City, Xuzhou's second anti-Chutian alliance was established, this time the coalition was larger, the actions were more secretive, and it also united with Shi Taoqian.
"Why is there a sudden smell of danger......"
Probably because he often went on expeditions, Chu Tian had an intuition about danger.
However, Chu Tian couldn't say that there was anything wrong.
He had confidence in the generals he left behind to guard the Langya Kingdom.
The teleportation array in Langya City can now be teleported directly to Suozao County in Chenliu County, which is the stronghold and grain storage ground of the Kwantung Coalition Army, and Han Fu, the assassin of Jizhou, is responsible for transporting grain.
Batch after batch of soldiers entered the teleportation array and arrived at the sour date.
The scene in front of Chu Tian's eyes changed, and when he came to the stronghold of the Kwantung Coalition Army, he saw the elite division of the 20,000 Langya Kingdom in front of him!
Hua Mulan nodded at him, the arrogant Li Guang pulled the reins of the war horse, Zhou Yafu was still silent, and behind him were soldiers dressed in sharp clothes, and almost everyone looked at Chu Tian.
Chu Tian looked at the city of Suozao County in the distance, and the soldiers and horses of other princes arrived one after another!
"Twenty-Seven Princes ......"
Chu Tian's scalp was numb when he thought of this number, and on average, each prince brought 3-50,000 elites to arrive, and there would be an army of one million.
This time, the million-strong army is not a peasant like the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, but a professional soldier, and the elites of various states and counties have more or less experienced the baptism of war.
"Che cavalry general Yuan Shao, Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu, Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai, Dongjun Taishou Cao Cao, Chen Liutai Shou Zhang Miao, Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi, Jibei Xiang Bao Xin, Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao, Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang, Jizhou Thorn Shi Han Fu, Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling, Qingzhou Thorn Shi Jiaohe, Beihai Xiang Kong Rong, Zhongshan State Minister Liu Bei, Changsha Taishou Sun Jian."
The princes of the Eastern Han Dynasty alone had fifteen roads.
The remaining twelve roads are the Yiren princes, Langya Xiang, Liaodong Taishou, Weijun Taishou, Bajun Taishou, Lujiang Taishou, Taiyuan Taishou, Nanhai Taishou...... Most of these people were trying to curry favor with Yuan Shao for the official positions he had obtained.
Chu Tian counted the number of people, but found that there were a few important princes missing, so he asked Xue Yue, who was secretly inquiring about the news: "Why didn't Sun Zhan, the Taishou Gongsun Zan of Youbeiping, Tao Qian of Xuzhou, Liu Yu of Youzhou Prefecture, Liu Yan of Yizhou Prefecture, and Liu Biao of Jingzhou Assassin Shi not come?" ”
"Gongsun Zhan pursued Wu, surrounded by Wuhuan cavalry, and had no time to take care of himself, Liu Yu, Liu Yan, and Liu Biao had just taken office, and their roots were not deep, and they had no troops. Tao Qian's actions are unknown. ”
"Inform Xia Cheng and beware of Tao Qian."
Chu Tian was puzzled by Tao Qian's failure to participate in the fight against Dong's coalition army.
If it is said that the road is far away, now there is a teleportation array that can directly come to Suozao County.
Chu Tian was a little worried that Tao Qian would stab himself in the back.
"My lord, it's time for you to enter the city and make an alliance with the princes."
Fang Xuanling reminded Chu Tian.
"Zhou Yafu, you are responsible for leading the soldiers to camp."
Chutian asked Zhou Yafu to settle the soldiers and horses, and then took Xue Rengui, Zhao Yun, Hua Mulan, Li Guang, and Fang Xuanling into Suozao County, and he wanted to ask for food from Han Fu, the assassin of Jizhou.
As for other supplies, Chutian could transport them from Langya City, and during the battle, it was not necessary to pay any price to use the teleportation array from Langya City to send supplies to Suozao County.
In the county town of Suojube, the soldiers are in chaos, the princes from all walks of life lead the guards into the city, and the princes attend the meeting!
"Chu Zimou, we meet again. I'm not going to be left behind you again this time. ”
Mingguan entered the city with dozens of Liaodong cavalry, followed by Li Chengliang, Zu Dashou, and a third unknown general from Chutian.
The current Mingguan imprisoned the Gongsun Du family, controlled Liaodong, and commanded a cloud of cavalry.
If you talk about cavalry alone, the scale of Chu Tian's cavalry is really not comparable to him.
Chutian has cavalry generals, Mingguan also has it, and he has an advantage in the number of cavalry, and he should win a decisive battle with him in the grassland.
However, Chutian is not simply competing with Mingguan for cavalry.
Chu Tian squinted his eyes, and was more interested in the third general behind Ming Guan. The third general looks very majestic and proud.
When it comes to future competitors, Liaodong Taishou Mingguan is definitely a strong enemy, after all, he controls a horse-producing area outside the pass, as well as Li Chengliang, the general army of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty who shocked Liaodong and was as famous as Qi Jiguang at that time.
For the generals owned by competitors, Chu Tian was quite concerned.
It can probably be seen that Chu Tian covets his generals, and Ming Guan is also looking at the generals that Chu Tian has.
Xue Rengui had seen it in the Battle of Anshi City, and it was easy to recognize.
As for Mulan, I heard that the player said that Chu Tian often goes out with him, and his identity can also be confirmed.
Then there is Li Guang, who has a long bow on his back and thick arms, which is also very recognizable.
There is also a fourth general...... Thick eyebrows and big eyes, majestic, silver armor, spears and white robes.
"No......"
Mingguan was completely shocked this time, and almost the lords of the entire Eastern Han District knew Zhao Yun's characteristics. Mingguan can naturally recognize it.
He looked at Chu Tian in disbelief: "Could it be you?" ”
Chu Tian nodded undeniably, making Ming Guan think that Zhao Yun had pledged his allegiance to him.
Zhao Yun is too obvious to hide, and he can't hide it, not like Zhou Yafu who looks mediocre.
"You guy...... That's enough......"
Mingguan was shocked by this, and at the same time under great pressure.
Chu Tian's fierce generals are like clouds.
Originally, he was loyal to three generals and a strategist, thinking that he could be defeated in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it was okay to enter the Central Plains in the future.
But Chutian in Xuzhou is definitely an out-and-out strong enemy, and now he has Zhao Yun, one of the five tiger generals, like a tiger.
Ming Guan said to Chu Tian in private: "I was still thinking about defeating Gongsun Zan and capturing Zhao Yun in the future, but you were one step ahead of you. ”
Chu Tian muttered in a low voice: "He took the initiative to send it to the door, it wasn't me who deliberately robbed it......"
"You ......"
Mingguan has nothing to say.
The three generals behind Ming Guan, Li Chengliang and Zu Dashou, especially the third unknown general, looked at the group of generals behind Chu Tian, with a hint of provocation in their eyes.
If you don't fight a real fight on the battlefield, no one wants to admit that you are worse than the other party.
Li Guang, Xue Rengui, and even Zhao Yun, who had not yet joined the Langya Kingdom, all felt the other party's provocation, and each held their heads high, not to be outdone. Zhao Yun obviously also regarded himself as a member of Xue Rengui's camp.
"This is not the time for conflict."
Chu Tian felt the tension between the two sides, so he broke this atmosphere.
has not yet started a war with Dong Zhuo, if the Kwantung Coalition Army fights internally, Dong Zhuo only needs to watch the play.
Mingguan noticed that in addition to the four generals, Chutian also had a military division.
Mingguan said: "I also have a counselor, but I left him to guard the house. ”
"You don't need him to deal with Dong Zhuo? I heard that Dong Zhuo's Inhuman Department will recommend Dong Zhuo to reuse Jia Xu and Li Ru as masterminds. ”
"I trust my own mind, and I need someone to guard my home. The sticks in Goryeo are not at all restless. ”
Chutian had some understanding of the situation of Mingguan, Liaodong bordered Goryeo, and border troubles were also an unstable factor that plagued Mingguan.
"Have you ever thought about attacking Goryeo?"
Chu Tian instigated Liaodong Taishou to fight Goryeo, plague Goryeo, and reduce the pressure of the civil war.
"I haven't unified Liaodong County yet, and I don't have that kind of strength. Moreover, the terrain of Goryeo is complex. According to the experience of the Tang Dynasty, if you really want to destroy the Goryeo Kingdom, you need to advance by water. Liaodong out of cavalry, Qingzhou out of the water division, two sides of the attack, in order to occupy the Goryeo Kingdom. If one day you occupy Cheongju, maybe we can join forces to destroy the Kingdom of Goryeo. ”
"If there's a day, let's talk about it. Destroying a civilized area is not something that the two of us Taishou can do. ”
Chu Tian considered that the size of the Goryeo Kingdom was equivalent to a state in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it would need at least five to seven counties of territory to compete with the Goryeo Kingdom.
As for the destruction of the country, it is necessary to have at least three times the strength of the other side, that is, it is necessary to have the territory of three states before it is possible to destroy the Goryeo kingdom that is resisting with all its might.
This does not take into account the support of the nomadic tribes of the steppes and the lords of the Dongying district in the Goryeo Kingdom.
Myeongguan only put forward a proposal to join forces to destroy the Goryeo Kingdom, but whether it can be implemented in the future is another matter.
Yuan Shao, the general of the cavalry, waited for a long time in Suozao County, although he lost Luoyang City, but Yan Liang and Wen Chou were still there, accompanied by the strategist Xu You and a group of strangers who supported Yuan Shao.
This group of players originally expected Yuan Shao to hold Luoyang, and then the Kwantung Coalition Army was stationed in Luoyang and used Luoyang as a base to crusade against Dong Zhuo. But now, they failed and were forced to move to Chenliu County.
Chu Tian and Yuan Shao once met in the horse market in Luoyang.
He noticed that Yuan Shao was followed by two fierce generals, with a majestic appearance.
"It should be Yan Liang and Wen Chou."
Chu Tian couldn't help but secretly say that the player's ability is strong, and all the generals have been invited out of the mountain by them, and at present, there are only some generals who are still children.
Even Zhao Yun was deceived to Qingzhou, and finally ended up in Xuzhou.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou were also deceived by the player to Yuan Shao's command.
With the reputation of Yuan Shao IV and the third duke, it is very attractive to local talents, which is not comparable to the Inhuman Lord.
"Isn't this General Fubo?"
Yuan Shao greeted him and showed humility to Chutian in order to win people's hearts.
Yuan Shao's strategist Xu Yu blew his beard and glared, his favorability towards Chu Tian was very low, because not long ago in the Xia City Lord's Mansion, he was deceived by Chu Tian and left in anger.
"Meet the Che Rider General."
Chu Tian was also very polite to the alliance leader Yuan Shao, at least on the surface.
At this time, Mingguan, who was the Taishou of Liaodong, also greeted Yuan Shao, as if these princes were former friends.
"Liu Xuande, the minister of Zhongshan, met with the general of the Che Cai."
Liu Bei's voice sounded, whether it was Chutian or Mingguan, he was slightly startled.
If you want to say who has the best development momentum among the local princes of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Bei must be counted as one.
From an unknown civilian, with his exploits in suppressing the Yellow Turban Army and the Wuhuan Rebellion, he was promoted all the way to the prime minister of Zhongshan.
Liu Bei does not lack fierce generals, what he lacks is a military advisor with strategic vision.
Before receiving the help of Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng and others, Liu Bei had been moving around and had not established a solid force.
The existence of the Inhuman Military Division made up for Liu Bei's strategic vision, allowing him to give full play to the advantages of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
Coupled with the new Turkic prince Ashina Sheer, Liu Bei is like a tiger with wings.
Liu Bei was one of the few Eastern Han Dynasty princes in Chutian's opinion who could compete with the Great Lord of the Inhumans in the Central Plains.
As for Tao Qian, Yan Baihu, Liu Yan, Kong Rong and others, they really couldn't survive the brutal elimination and develop into the great lord of Taishou.
has the ability to become a great lord of the Taishou or the Prime Minister of the country, each of whom has experienced a hundred battles, and there are several historical heroes under his command.
There are some historical heroes that these lords didn't bring out.
For example, Chutian left Xu Sheng, Zang Ba, Sun Guan, Li Kui and others to guard the house, and Mingguan left a strategist, so it is difficult to infer their true strength based on the historical heroes brought by various princes.
Some lords will choose to hide and attack at critical moments.
"Xuande has seen Langya Xiang and General Fubo."
Liu Bei bowed to Chu Tian again.
Liu Bei and Chu Tian are acquaintances.
The epic battle in December of the first year of the lord's calendar was seen on the battlefield of Guangzong County.
At the beginning, Chutian also snatched away a lot of military exploits belonging to Liu Guanzhang's brothers, which made Liu Bei depressed for a while.
But now the high-spirited Liu Bei has forgotten the contradiction of the original military exploits.
Liu Bei was promoted from the county lieutenant of Anxi County to the minister of Zhongshan, sweeping away his previous downfall.
The prime minister of Zhongshan is second only to Han Fu in Jizhou. Coupled with the fact that Han Fu is a weak thorn in history, Liu Bei's development prospects are undoubtedly very broad.
After Liu Bei had a status, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei changed their sophisticated equipment, and even the quality of the war horse changed from an ordinary war horse to a high-grade Youzhou war horse, with complete armor all over the body.
Guan Yu was holding the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, and Zhang Fei was holding the Zhangba Snake Spear, which was violent.
Liu Bei was also accompanied by an Inhuman military advisor who was highly used by him.
The Inhuman Military Master said to Chu Tian: "In Xia Chenxi. Chu Zimou, our lord has two fierce generals, Yun Chang and Yide, and cavalry, this time you can't snatch what belongs to him. ”
