When the ceremony of the alliance of blood was completed, it was already time. The Lanling Xiao clan had already prepared a grand banquet to entertain the civil and military forces of the two countries. Zhang Shuo personally took Tian Pijiang and Liu Bei's hands to the banquet.

The three of them look like friends, not relatives, but better than relatives. It's just that only they know what thoughts are hidden in the hearts of a few people.

Under the arrangement of the Xiao clan of Lanling, the civil and military forces of the two countries rested in the county for one night, and only left the next day under Zhang Shuo's personal farewell.

On the same day, Zhang Shuo also recalled the generals of the various field armies and the commanders of various counties stationed in various places, and held a joint meeting in the palace of King Qian, to discuss the strategic arrangements and how various departments could better cooperate with the campaign.

The people present, in addition to Zhao Yun, Xie Xuan, Fu Youde, and Huang Zhong, also included Dazai Xie An, the eunuch Gao Lishi, the director of the Department of Ceremonies, Xie Shang, the director of the Department of Military Affairs, Wang Anshi, the director of the Department of Officials and the Department of Driving, Cui Hongdan, the director of the Department of Hundred Industries, and Lu Zhu, the director of the Department of Commerce.

The above people are basically people who are closely related to the responsibilities of this campaign. Although it is said that there are two strong allies of Qi and Shu this time, considering that behind the anti-Triple Alliance, there is a giant like Henghai Group, which has huge manpower and material resources in reality. made Zhang Shuo not dare to take this battle lightly.

Therefore, this time, Zhang Shuo will mobilize all the forces of the entire Qianguo in the form of a general battle to completely defeat the Laoguo in one go.

In the Qianguo Imperial Study, a huge map created by many players and many NPC mappers under the command of Qianguo was hung behind Zhang Shuo, looking at the map of Xuzhou that was a little rough for players in front of him, but it was already very precise for Xie An and other original people. Xie An took a long stick and began to tell everyone about the many layouts of this battle:

"This time it is divided into three parts of Xuzhou, and the areas that can be attacked by Wu Qianguo are nine counties of LY, Shuyang and Xiaxiang counties in Surabaya, as well as Jimo and Langya counties in Langya. This pacified the battle between Surabaya and Langya, according to the alliance previously agreed upon by the three kingdoms, it was still dominated by the Qi State, facing the main forces of the Eastern Jin State and the Heyang State. All we need to do is send troops and help at a critical moment.

In other words, the first thing that our Qianguo needs to consider at the moment is how to capture the nine counties of LY within a year with minimal casualties! ”

Seeing that Xie An finished speaking, Zhang Shuo nodded, and said sincerely to the Qianguo civil and military forces present: "As Xie Dazai said, the purpose of convening everyone this time is to let everyone express their opinions, and then brainstorm and formulate a perfect battle plan. ”

Zhang Shuo said, looked around, and finally put his eyes on Zhao Yun's body: "Zilong, you are a veteran of my Qianguo." It's up to you to take the lead and say a few words first. ”

"The last will obey!"

Zhao Yun stood up, nodded to everyone present, came to the map, and took the wooden stick from Xie An's hand.

"Weichen thinks that the soldiers are expensive and fast, if our country wants to defeat Lao, we should immediately send elite soldiers to raid Laoguo! At this time, the agricultural season is busy, and all countries are gathering their hands to harvest food. Thinking about it, Qin Feng couldn't have expected that we would start a war at this moment. By surprise, it can catch the opponent off guard, so that our soldiers and horses can quickly open up the situation in LY County! ”

Zhao Yun said, looked at the people in front of him, and wanted to see if anyone had different ideas about his suggestion.

"The minister thought that General Zilong's idea was feasible. At present, there are nearly 400,000 soldiers under the jurisdiction of the military governments in various parts of our country, plus the many prisoners in the labor camps in various counties, which are enough to undertake the work of garrisoning various localities and harvesting grain and sowning new seedlings at the same time. ”

Wang Anshi, director of the Ministry of Governance, was the first to express his opinion. He was very much in favor of Zhao Yun's plan to raid Laoguo.

"The general's proposal to raid Laoguo is indeed the best policy. It's just that this strategy can only be based on small teams of elite soldiers, and it is difficult to use large teams. The main reason is that the transportation of grain and grass in our army also needs time to transport, and if the army breaks into LY County and cannot obtain enough grain and grass in time, I am afraid it will be very passive. Since the ancient road, the three armies have not moved, the grain and grass go first, the soldiers are full of food, and they are invincible! ”

Although Xie Shang, the director of the Du Branch Division, did not directly oppose it, he was obviously not very optimistic about Zhao Yun's raid plan.

Zhang Shuo listened to Xie Shang's concerns, and nodded approvingly, Zhao Yun's idea is good, but the flaws are also very obvious, unless he can get the support of many local forces in Laoguo like he did when he fought Sun Ru, so as to directly oppose the guest and feed the war with war.

"Dazai, how much has the Baigu Dan been refined at the moment?"

Zhang Shuo turned his head to look at Xie An, although there was nothing in the primary alchemy, it didn't mean that there was, even if Zhang Shuo gathered a large number of diehard NPCs and handed them over to Ge Hong to teach. But at the moment, less than 300 people have actually learned. So much so that at present, most of the Baigu Dan refining work can only be handed over to the Xie family, and those cultivators of the Xie family will help refine some first.

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the monarch, at present, the Baigu Pill has only refined more than two thousand seven hundred pills, and more than one thousand six hundred horse food pills, even if you raid the Lao Kingdom with these pills, I'm afraid it will only be enough to last three or five hundred people."

When Xie An heard this, he immediately guessed Zhang Shuo's thoughts, and directly dispelled Zhang Shuo's unreliable ideas. However, after a pause, Xie An spoke again: "However, according to the report of the spies, Laoguo has recently requisitioned a large number of personnel to strengthen the city defense, and has built fortifications in various key places. As a result, there is a shortage of domestic labor, and there is still a large amount of rice in the countryside that has not had time to be harvested. Therefore, our army can invade Laoguo in the near future, so that the soldiers can quickly control and sweep the counties of LY. Subsequently, the commander of the government can be driven in to harvest LY rice to fund the army's rations. ”

"What Dazai said is reasonable, but there is no shortage of wise people in the Lao country, and they must be able to see the weight of grain and grass. I'm afraid that the other party has already been prepared. ”

Li Fei, director of the Department of Military Affairs, shook his head and said. He did not agree with Xie An's statement.

"It's okay......" Xie Xuan, the general of the Beifu Army, heard this, and retorted: "At present, the military strength of Laoguo is mostly concentrated in the county seat, Yishui, Shuhe, and many key ferries in the Shiliang River Basin. As long as our army quickly sweeps the surrounding towns with the momentum of thunder, and then surrounds the county seat, the government soldiers can harvest rice without worry. ”

Fu Youde on the side nodded silently and agreed with Xie Xuan's statement. Originally, he had always had a contemptuous and disdainful attitude towards this young man who served as a military general at the age of 15. thought that it was because of Xie's support and brother-in-law's identity that Zhang Shuo was promoted to the wine bag and rice bag.

Now, when I heard Xie Xuan's understatement, but I got to the crux of the problem, I realized that I had peeped at the other party.

------Off topic------

Today, I calculated it, and the combination of breaking and rewarding and adding more is a total of 9,000 words owed to everyone. I'll make up a little bit every day and make them up as soon as possible.

I usually have two chapters a day, each chapter is 2,000 words, and if each chapter is more than 100, it will be counted as a supplement, and if it is not more than 100, it will not be counted. For example, 2380 words, even if you make up 300 words.
