Xu Rong, the general of Zhonglang, and Jia Xu, the general of the military division, who were originally stationed in Yiwu, received a summons from Dong Zhuo, saying that they had ordered Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan to lead troops to come to help, and that Yiwu would send troops to Bingzhou to join the party.

The purpose of this dispatch of troops was to bring the entire annexed state under the control of Dong Zhuo's forces.

Therefore, let them prepare their troops in advance.

The speed of the heralds far exceeded the speed of the marching of the large army, and now the army led by Zhang Liao was almost halfway there.

Yi Wu

yamen

"Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan?"

Xu Rong looked at the brocade silk in his hand, with doubts on his face, and turned to Jia Xu to ask, "Does Wen He know anything about Zhang Liao?" ”

Jia Xu frowned slightly, "Zhang Liao is a person from Yanmen County, Bingzhou, and he was born on the same border as us. ”

"His courage is outstanding, he has many military exploits, and he has been appointed to the north to defend before."

Xu Rong put down the brocade silk and shook his head, "He started with military merits, and he was too guarded by the North, and Rong didn't pay much attention to such a character before." ”

Jia Xu said slowly: "Zhang Liao originally belonged to Ding Yuan, and Ding Yuan had a fierce general like Lu Bu under his command, and it is normal for others to be covered by Lu Bu. ”

Xu Rong glanced at Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe.

Jia Xu usually talks very little, almost the kind of state where you ask a question and he answers, why are there more words today.

And it seems that Jia Xu also knows a lot about the personnel of the Bingzhou family.

It's kind of weird.

The reason why Xu Rong has such an opinion about Jia Xu is because he doesn't know much about Jia Xu.

At first, when Dong Zhuo sent Jia Xu to his side as a military general, he was still a little surprised.

He only knew that Jia Xuju was born in filial piety, but he didn't know what was so special.

Jia Xu is usually silent, looking harmless to humans and animals, no different from other scholars and children, and the communication between the two is limited to official business.

However, since he was named by Dong Xiangguo himself, there should be something outstanding.

Jia Xu.

Harmless to humans and animals.

……

If Dong Zhuo knew Xu Rong's thoughts, it must have been 10,000 grass and mud horses.

This is a figure known as the "poisoner" among the strategists in the Three Kingdoms.

The strategist who can rank in the top three of the Three Kingdoms.

In Dong Zhuo's heart, Li Ru and Jia Xu are more powerful advisers than Zhuge Liang.

Although Jia Xu usually talks little, he is a very principled person.

Now that Dong Xiangguo has appointed him, he will do his own thing conscientiously and will not slack off.

It belongs to the very standard kind of "part-time worker".

How much salary to get, how much to do, when it is time to contribute, when it is time to contribute, if you find that the boss is not good, then the "worker" can only work in another place.

If you let him live and die with the boss.

I'm afraid that even if it is to increase the money, it will be difficult to do it.

At this time, I only heard Xu Rong ask: "Xiangguo asked me to wait for the troops to go out to attack and merge with the state, Wenhe, as a military general, can he have a good strategy?" ”

Jia Xu pondered for a moment and replied: "With General Xu leading the army, this matter is not difficult. ”

"The land of Bingzhou is vast and sparsely populated, and there are no famous people after Ding Yuan's death."

"It's just that Zhang Liao hasn't arrived yet, and this matter is not easy to decide."

"Xiangguo ordered us to send troops, mainly General Xu, but Zhang Liao led an army alone, if they cooperate with each other, they will get twice the result with half the effort."

"In my opinion, we can garrison troops in "Xiangheng", from "Xiangheng" to the north to "Nie County", in the west to the party, and to cross the Yellow River in the east to send troops to Leping County. ”

Xu Rong bowed slightly, Jia Xu's suggestion was similar to what he thought.

"Since this is the case, then we will divide the soldiers into two routes, Rong and Wenhe soldiers will go out to the party, and let that Zhang Liao cross the Yellow River and go to Leping County."

"What does Wen He think?"

Jia Xu frowned slightly, "If the troops are divided into two roads, I am afraid that the road in Leping County will be hindered." ”

"Leping County is connected to Jizhou Guangping County in the east, and Yanzhou East County."

"Now Jizhou is under the command of Yuan Shao, and Dongjun is under the command of Cao Cao, if Cao Cao and Yuan Shao come together to attack, Leping County may be lost."

"It is better to join forces to attack the Shangdang first, and the Shangdang soldiers will send Taiyuan to Taiyuan and use Taiyuan as a stronghold to recover Xihe and Yanmen, so that the four counties in the western part of the state are under control."

"After the four counties in the western part of the state are pacified, we will station troops in the "tunliu", and the two counties of "Xinxing" and "Leping" can be affected by using the tunliu as a transit place. ”

Xu Rong listened to Jia Xu's analysis, and was even more surprised in his heart.

He just tried to test Jia Xu to see if Jia Xu was the real thing.

I didn't expect that there were still some gains, although "Leping County" was easy to take, but after capturing Leping County, he had to directly face Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

With their current strength, it is very difficult to deal with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao at the same time.

Moreover, the Zhang Liao sent by Dong Xiangguo is also a question of whether it is reliable or not.

If it's reliable, then it's better.

If it's unreliable, then you really can't beat the fox and cause a commotion, so the gains outweigh the losses.

Fortunately, it is better to bring the unfamiliar Zhang Liao with him to fight together.

It is more appropriate to run in with each other, and make other arrangements after they are all familiar.

Days flew by.

"Report!"

Suddenly, a scout came to report the news.

Xu Rong sat in the big tent of the Chinese army, looked at the scout, and said, "What's the matter?" ”

The scout hurriedly replied: "General Hui, there are a large number of cavalry outside Yiwu, and if nothing happens, we will be able to arrive at Yiwu at noon today." ”

Xu Rong frowned, "Can you find out where the soldiers and horses are, and who will be the flag?" Where did it come from? ”

The scout replied: "It should be the cavalry of the state, and there is a letter on the flag." "From the direction of Chang'an in the south."

Xu Rong was surprised: "And the state cavalry? "Zhang Zi Jiangqi?"

The scout nodded.

Xu Rong secretly said, coming from Chang'an, Zhang Zi will be the banner, and the state cavalry, this should be the team led by Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan.

But it doesn't make sense.

This speed is also too fast, and it is possible to rush at this speed if you are on a rapid march.

But isn't it a waste of horse fat to play so hard in your own backyard?

Moreover, the soldiers under him are also very hard, and they must cultivate for a period of time before they can continue to go to the battlefield.

This Zhang Liao will not be a meritorious person, so he will speed up his journey like this.

Thinking of this, Xu Rong's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

Suddenly remembering that the scout was still in the tent, Xu Rong waved his hand, "You go down first." "This would have been known."

Yiwu

Xu Rong and Jia Xu were waiting for Zhang Liao's arrival.

Before noon, a soldier came to report, and General Zhang Liao asked to see him.

Xu Rong and Jia Xu glanced at each other, this speed was even faster than the previous estimate!

This is completely abnormal!

Even if you don't care about horsepower, you can't achieve such speed unless you have super high riding skills.

This Zhang Liao, Zhang Wen is far from simple! It is possible to train such a team.

The two of them didn't know that Zhang Liao had to obtain the special skills rewarded by the system after becoming Dong Zhuoyi's son.
