Officials who have played turn-based games should have a deep understanding of this sentence and are deeply ashamed... Anyway, no matter what, while playing, it will be dawn inexplicably!

Tang Songyuan also had this feeling at this time.

Because he had forgotten to sleep and eat, he had been holding the briefing and reading it for five or six hours.

He was hungry, but he always wanted to say, "I'm going to eat while I'm looking at one"...

As a result, I was hungry again.

…

Understand~

Truly!

Since March, due to the local improvement of the weather, there have been "armed conflicts" of a certain scale in the northwest and north of Youzhou, and in the central, western, and southern parts of Jizhou.

Moreover, all of Tang Songyuan's "intervention plans" in the Central Plains were partially stopped as early as February 20.

Because it's meaningless, I can't take care of it!

On the one hand, the 01A base has to bear the "huge" cost of population support; On the other hand, capacity is limited... The cost of long-distance large-scale air transportation is also huge...

So that's pretty much it.

The rest is to provide some "plug-ins" for Yuan's brothers in terms of intelligence and communication. Of course, the free "plug-in" is worth "5 cents" at most~ at most, it is just to help them pass on intelligence and military orders.

But if you look at it from another angle, it's different.

The intervention of the 01A base intelligence system has indeed made the "connection" of the Yuan Group closer; It also makes them "nimble".

This is a bit like the scene back then, when neon spies helped warlords all over the mainland fight each other. Often, whoever can get the support of neon agents will have the "biggest" advantage!

So on the surface, it looks like Yuan's brother is being beaten everywhere...

But in fact, although they seemed to be "sticking to it", Tang Songyuan knew that the time for the Yuan family's counterattack was approaching.

(PS: The intelligence network of Base 01A, which currently penetrates the Central Plains, only covers the east of the Taihang Mountain Range, the north of the "Yellow River", the south of the Yanshan Mountains, and the west of the Bohai Sea.) ）

(PS: New time and space, the Yellow River in the Jian'an era, its outlet to the sea, is located in Tatecheng County.) Approximately, it is equivalent to the original time and space, the southern edge of Lijin County, Binzhou City, Shandong Province. ）

…

Why does Tang Songyuan think that the Yuan family will soon "counterattack"?

If you want to elaborate, you have to start at the beginning of March.

…

In other words, the 01A base, in February, didn't it send 10,000 tons of materials to the Yuan family in one go? Moreover, it was delivered separately according to the location designated by Yuan Tan!

According to the number, then, Fuyang County is undoubtedly the most; The second is Lecheng County, because there are diehard loyalists stationed there... After that, it was Jixian, Changping, and Jundu; Finally, there are Lunu, Shangquyang, and An Xi.

All of a sudden, each county in Moyo harvested at least 1,000 tons of supplies.

And these locations are either "enemy passes" or transportation hubs. Therefore, once the airdrop was collected, the Yuan family and his brothers only took a few days to deploy the supplies.

Moreover, in this batch of materials, in addition to grain, the largest "extra goods" are refined salt! Really white flowers, or iodized, or mineral-containing refined salt!

The kind that sells a pack for 3 yuan in a general supermarket...

Hehe~

Brother Yuan is not stupid!

They quickly understood that this 500g bag of refined salt could be spent directly as "money"! This is the reason why the efficiency of the upper and lower dispatches of the Yuan family's forces has doubled all at once.

And that's not all.

Since the food is nutritious and high in energy...

Plus the clothes are strong enough and warm enough, so, as early as March ago, *** (main force, private soldiers) has already "changed shotguns for guns"!

Well~

Before the industrial era, wars were fought mainly on "faith" and luck.

Luck... That is, probability, to a certain extent, is indeed controllable.

But primitive people don't understand probability! They can't even distinguish between probability, and uncertainty... So for the natives, luck is something that cannot be controlled.

But faith is completely controllable.

Why?

Because faith is easy to build.

Especially when people are well fed and clothed. People in the mainland, at the moment, always like to say that "mainlanders have no faith"... Isn't it just that you're full!

Besides, whether it is Yuan Shikai or the Roman propertied citizen soldiers, or the era of a certain country's liberation war... The faith of the low-level soldiers is established, so it is a matter of eating and cloning and then giving a piece of land...

On the contrary, once eating and drinking are problems, then...

Even if it is closed, the invincible continental PLA of the universe can't do the well-fed V Nan~ Why reform? Why is it open?

Grandpa Deng understands~

I really can't afford it!

With faith, morale or anything, you don't need to make a lot of noise!

It's true!

When the soldiers voluntarily shouted "For Marshal Yuan", "For Rome", and "For Chairman X" on the battlefield, it means that morale has skyrocketed.

Uh-huh~

For Yuan Dashuai? There's nothing wrong with it! Because Yuan Shikai fed and clothed the soldiers!

In order to... Chairman?

Yes!

The chairman beat the local tyrants and divided the land (nominally, but in fact it is all in his pocket)... Those peasants who got the "right to use", of course, worked hard for the land!

(Turning around, I started a fight with the abducted cadres who levy agricultural taxes...) Huh)

…

SO~

For a few days in early March, the weather was really good, at least there was no rain and snow, and there was no more blizzard.

Tang Songyuan really didn't know what Cao Cao was thinking~

However, Cao Cao happened to be stationed in Dongguang County in the past few days.

Theoretically, Cao Cao should have known that Nanpi had been recaptured by Yuan Tan at this time. He should have given up Nanpi and chose to go back to the plains directly.

But from his point of view, it is estimated that he thinks that the weather is right. So, while he stayed, the surrounding Cao army began to rush towards the Nanpi generation to encircle and advance.

As a result, the army advanced left and right, but was intercepted by the two counties of Lecheng and Gaocheng, and could not form a pincer offensive. If you insist on playing siege warfare in this case, then it is very likely that you will be attacked every day!

So, I really don't know what Cao Cao thinks...

He actually ordered a large army to besiege the city on March 14.

BUT~

The weather is cold, and without the excavation ability of Lanxiang Technical School, the trench that was originally necessary for the siege of the city was not dug at all... Even the siege mounds (dirt slopes) ... Gave up.

In this way, more than 20,000 people were directly stationed in four gates.

It seems that Cao Cao has no worries at all.

However, Tang Songyuan guessed that Cao Cao might also have other plans. This, at the moment, is not known. I only know that in Cao Cao's headquarters, every day, it is really necessary to draw lots to choose the main attack!

The unlucky one on the first day was Cao Chun... He was responsible for the main attack on the south gate, and there were feints in other directions. As a result, the battle started early in the morning, and Cao Chun's main force output in the morning...

Before noon, Cao Chun's infantry soldiers were lost by more than half!

In the afternoon, the lot was drawn again, and Zhang Jaw was lucky to be the unlucky guy the next day.

But then again, Cao Cao mentioned two things at the "Military Summary" meeting on the first day. The first thing was that he found that most of the human heads on the city walls were "uniformly dressed"; Another thing is that he feels that Ding Zhuang in Nanpi City is much more desperate than before.

It's not at all like the previous "***"!

So, that night, Cao Cao gave out all his "stocks" and rewarded the generals who fought the main force on the second day.

The so-called "inventory" is his one, I don't know who, secretly gave it to him...

Expired canned food, snacks, instant noodles.

Hehe~

If you don't have a bad stomach, then it's already a fortune telling!

…

…

Again, let's go back to the beginning of March.

Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, who are "waiting for the Dan", have also done a good job of reassuring the people, raising the army, using salt tokens, and hiring laborers with food... And so on.

If there is no "enemy army" to disturb them, then it is just right, once the winter snow melts, they will organize the countryside and open up the fields for farming.

After all, a lot of seeds are saved.

Yes!

If it weren't for the airdrop of the 01A base, then in many counties and cities in the two prefectures, the seeds would also be eaten as food.

In the whole of Liaodong, isn't it already at this time, and the five grains are almost extinct.

However, it has not snowed for a few days, and there are many riders in the north of Juyong.

In addition to Juyong...

To the north of Si Xi, there were also a large number of riders, each with a few horses, coming south.

Yuan Xi was sure that they just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity; They were Yan Rou, the captain of Wuhuan Guard, who deliberately let them go; They are Kebi Nengbu Central Xianbei!

Moreover, Yuan Xi also knew that Eastern Xianbei would no longer participate...

The eastern Xianbei people are one step earlier than him Yuan Xi, and they are obedient to that "what God"... Although Yuan Xi now, I don't know what kind of "master" this "god" is...

But Yuan Xi... Letter~

Therefore, Yuan Xi, who had no worries, dispatched troops and generals, and had already made preparations between Shangxi Pass and Juyong Pass.

At the same time, they also squandered "salt sugar" ...

Because he knows that Yuyang County doesn't listen to him...

But this "listen or not", he is not confirmed.

So he chose to trust the Lord!
