Chapter 808: Early Spring
The time is already March, in the early spring of Youzhou or the ice and snow have not disappeared, standing on the platform, you can see the mountains outside the city with white snow caps, the peaks in the city, are still mottled, but the green buds have emerged one after another, and the plum trees in the mountains are pink and red, decorating Miyun City with a particularly charming game of the heroes of the Three Kingdoms.
Fang Zhiwen supported Taishi Zhaorong, who had a big belly, in fact, Taishi Zhaorong's body was fine, but he was carefully supported by his husband, and this feeling was also very good.
"Husband, spring has arrived1 Taishi Zhaorong looked at the plum blossoms blooming in the yard and said.
"But isn't it, spring is coming, you two are too slow, come and have breakfast 1 Zhen Jiang heard the sound of talking outside in the room, and answered loudly with a smile, Taishi Zhaorong responded sweetly, and sped up a little.
"Daddy, auntie, come 1
"Here it comes, son 1
A family of five sat around for a meal, and they had a good time. But there is always no shortage of people who spoil the scenery.
"Brother, I'm back, I'm so hungry"
Xiangxiang is not a person, but a group of people, Tian Zhi, Zhao Xian and Li Xueyin, all of them have been bought in a group.
Just put down the bowl, Guo Jia and Tian Feng also came.
"The lord is really leisurely, but his subordinates have brought a piece of not very good news." Tian Feng said with a smile, and out of the corner of his eye, he happened to see Tian Zhi who disappeared behind the screen with Fang Yi in his arms.
Fang Zhiwen sighed helplessly, and asked Xiao Ning to help Taishi Zhaorong to the back, pregnant women still don't listen to these things of fighting and killing.
Zhen Jiang poured hot tea for Guo Jia and Tian Feng, glanced back at the screen behind him, and slightly curled the corners of his mouth.
"Let's talk about it, what is the bad news, could it be that Hefei City has been breached? Or was Cao Cao accidentally beheaded by Zilong? β
"Hehe, the lord will laugh, but Hefei has not been broken by Sun Jian, and Cao Cao is still alive."
Guo Jia took a sip of tea and told Fang Zhiwen regretfully. None of his guesses were reliable.
"So what happened to make you two come to me early in the morning to report it? Surely it's not a small thing, right? β
Tian Feng and Guo Jia exchanged a look, and Tian Feng slowly spoke: "Yuan Shu waved his army south to attack Qian County, Lu Bu made peace with Liu Dai, and the Iron Army has withdrawn to Dongjun." LΓΌ Bu also withdrew to the Liang state. The senior cadres of Yuan Shaojun's army are attacking Peiguo, Cao Cao's army is still trapped in the south, and the hometown of Qian County is already in danger. β
Fang Zhiwen nodded lightly, this situation should be said to be expected. It's just that the time that is happening now is very delicate, and seeing that spring plowing is about to begin, these guys suddenly launched an offensive, don't they want to farm well?
Of course. It's just a game world, so it won't get the young and strong to fight and cause the fields to be barren, in fact, the armies in the game are all professional armies, except for the militia, so the attacking side has little impact on farming, provided that it can't be overly conscripted.
The side that was attacked was in trouble, not only because the militia had to be conscripted, which delayed the spring ploughing, but also because of the war, it was impossible to go out of the city to cultivate. Or the crops that have been cultivated and planted are destroyed, and the cultivation of food will be devastated.
Therefore, Yuan Shu chose this time to attack Qian Jun, and Zhao Yun and Zhang Zhiyuan had been pestering Cao Cao in Lu'an for this purpose, and sabotaging Cao Cao's spring cultivation could essentially consume Cao Cao's strength. In order to counteract the support that Cao Cao received from the Inhuman forces.
Of course, Yuan Shu sincerely wanted to tear a piece of flesh off Cao Cao's body, while Zhao Yun and Zhang Zhiyuan just wanted to weaken Cao Cao appropriately, as for Sun Jian. Now it is difficult to ride a tiger and have a weak heart, Xiahoudun's steadiness and the advantage obtained at the beginning. completely blocked Sun Jian's way forward.
"It's finally here, it's really not good news, for Sun Jian, hehe."
Guo Jia took a sip of tea with a smile and smacked his lips, the tea still didn't have wine, which made people feel fascinated.
"Yuan Hao, let Zilong prepare to withdraw the army."
"No1
"Feng Xiao, this time your old friend is accurate in his calculations."
"Hehe, although Zhicai is not very good at military strategy, even his subordinates have to praise the overall situation, so he will borrow the hands of his subordinates to deliver news to adults."
"The lord's intentions are so obvious, and Zhang Zhiyuan's behavior has already revealed its purpose, if this is the case, if the drama is not visible, then it is not qualified1
Tian Feng said with a smile, Guo Jia curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and was noncommittally silent, in fact, from the layout that Cao Cao started with, it can be seen that Cao Cao has understood the intention of the three families to attack Huainan this time, and Cao Cao will have such an arrangement, Tian Feng's words are actually ridiculing Xi Zhicai, because Xi Zhicai is not confident in passing the word to Fang Zhiwen through Guo Jia, if Xi Zhicai firmly believes in his own judgment, there is no need to test Fang Zhiwen's true thoughts in this move.
Guo Jia also understands this, but Guo Jia understands more that the root cause of Xi Zhicai's lack of confidence comes from his current status, and the gains and losses of his status have led to the swaying of his mind.
Fang Zhiwen pouted and said: "Regardless of whether he should see it or not, since Cao Cao has long known about our intentions, he must have made some necessary preparations in private, now he can be let out to teach the Yuan brothers a lesson, Sun Jian should also go home to see what is going on in Jiangdong, it is estimated that this spring and summer turn can stop for a while1."
Guo Jia nodded: "My subordinates feel that there will be no major changes before the summer harvest, if there is a change, it will definitely appear before and after the summer harvest, and the most likely problem is Han Fu's side, and the other is Cao Cao. β
"What Feng Xiao said is very true, Han Fu has endured it for a long time, and he should also make some moves, now Yuan Shao's focus is on the Central Plains, and the pace seems a little too big, if Han Fu doesn't take this opportunity to take Dongjun, it will be really too wrong. As for Cao Cao, if he wants to survive the loss of summer grain smoothly and wait until the autumn harvest, he can send troops to eat the enemy after the summer harvest, the biggest possibility is to challenge Tao Qian, and the other way is to make a fuss from the internal clan, but I don't know which path he will choose. β
Fang Zhiwen smiled: "Whatever one he chooses, since there is no opinion on the general direction, then the order will be issued, in addition, Zilong's troops and Yuwen Boyan's troops will be adjusted, and the main general will not be changed, Yuwen Boyan's troops have all been reequipped with butterfly wing crossbows, right?" β
"Yes, they have all been reloaded, and the heavy crossbow cavalry is equipped with a bow and a crossbow, short knives, arrows, and leather armor."
"Very good, Zilong's light cavalry can't play a role in Jingxiang at all, and this actual battle has also confirmed this, and the other is the defensive methods of the heavy infantry, which we must also pay attention to."
"Rest assured, the regulations that have been formed have been added to the training, and new tactics are also being studied."
"Hehe, it's worry-free to have two of you, no matter what the princes in the south want, we just need to work hard to develop and improve ourselves, so that we can respond and influence the situation at any time."
"What the lord said is very true, and there is still a matter that the lord needs to decide."
"Oh, Yuan Hao, please speak."
"Recently, the Inhuman lords in the territory of the Miyun family have put forward requests, hoping to appropriately relax the quota of troops and the conditions of engagement, does the lord think it is feasible?"
Fang Zhiwen pondered for a moment, turned to Guo Jia and said, "What does Feng Xiao think?" β
"If it is according to the will of the subordinates, the Inhuman Lord should be loosened, according to our information, the relationship between the Inhuman Lord and the Inhuman forces is weakening, and the average number of troops owned by the Inhuman forces in Miyun is declining, obviously their military center of gravity is moving south, and loosening the restrictions on the Inhuman Lord at this time can create confrontation and competition between the two. On the other hand, local Inhuman wars can promote the prosperity of commerce, and at the same time, they can bring greater attraction to the Inhuman lords, so as to attract them to invest capital in the local area. β
Fang Zhiwen nodded, and then turned to Zhen Jiang, who had been listening quietly to their conversation: "What does Madam think?" β
"The concubine also agrees with Feng Xiao's opinion, the Inhuman Lord and the Guild should be treated differently, it is very difficult for the Inhuman Lord to grow into a guild, so he can't be choked and wasted, and the battle between the Inhuman Lords will bring prosperity in commerce There is no doubt about it, the only thing to worry about is whether the war will get out of control, such as the situation of vertical and horizontal collusion."
"I understand, this matter is not in a hurry, it is easy to take back a policy, but it is very difficult, and the impact of the policy cannot only look at the military side, but also need to look at the impact of all aspects, and we cannot only look at the current impact and ignore the long-term impact. I intend to bring this matter to the council, and before doing so, the General Staff asks for as much input as possible from all parties, including Aborigines and Inhumans. β
Tian Feng and Guo Jia glanced at each other, and they both saw solemnity in each other's eyes.
"No1
"In addition, the troops of Yue Xi were upgraded to corps, and half of the troops were temporarily transferred by Zhizhong, and the troops of Yuan Zilong under Yue Xi were exchanged back to Fengning, and the gap was made up by the General Staff, and after the composition of the troops, they were temporarily unified under the command of Yuan Zhi, and his defensive direction was Xuzhou, and the station was tentatively set as Qingdao."
"The lord still thinks that Cao Cao will choose Xuzhou?"
"Regardless of whether Cao Cao will attack Xuzhou or not, we should be prepared for Xuzhou, because now whether it is Yuan Shao, Cao Cao or Sun Jian, as long as the internal stability is stable, it will inevitably seek to expand outward to strengthen its own strength, and Xuzhou, Yanzhou's Dongjun, Jibei, Jiyin, etc. will become everyone's goal, Xuzhou's belonging is very important, and can even determine the trend of the entire Central Plains in the future, so I mean Xuzhou's long-term neutrality is beneficial."
"Let Wenju form an alliance with Tao Qian?" Guo Jia thought for a while and said.
Fang Zhiwen's gaze turned to Tian Feng, Tian Feng frowned slightly and thought for a while, then nodded in agreement.
"The lord formed the Yuexi Army, isn't it just for Xuzhou, and Feng Xiao is afraid that he doesn't want to stay in Miyun, right?"
Fang Zhiwen and Guo Jia glanced at each other and laughed at the same time.
