Chapter 527: Mobilization and Expedition

The Northern Expedition was not a dinner party, it was not so easy, and it took at least a month or more to prepare. Diaphragm

Therefore, although the army has begun to stand by at this moment, and even Guan Yu is already fighting Zhang Liao, on the whole, there is still a period of time before a full-scale war begins.

During this time.

Liu Bei didn't know who he had been fooled, so he actually gave birth to the idea of dividing the troops again, wanting Chen Feng to lead the army all the way and enter Runan through Wusheng Pass, the only pass in Dabie Mountain.

"The person who said this should really be killed!"

After Chen Feng heard this, he stood up coldly, even if he knew that the person who made this suggestion was within the public mansion, he was still not ready to give any face.

In other words, if he can't even watch a small role, then he won't have any ambitions.

"Why is that?" Diaphragm

Liu Bei said strangely: "If the troops are divided, Ziji can support me at any time, and I can also send troops to support you, how can the person who made such a suggestion be killed?" ”

"Lord, I know about this."

Pang Tong stood up and explained with an ugly face: "In the past, it was indeed a good way to divide the troops, but now, General Guan has already started fighting, and Cao Cao has also gathered a large army. ”

"At that time, Cao Cao only needs to go all out to break through all the way, such as Runan or Yingchuan...... He can go straight in, and the other side will not be able to react. ”

"Or, even if the other side reacts, it is impossible to rush to the rescue."

"In addition, Cao Cao at that time could also put a certain amount of pressure on General Guan to force the other side not to move."

"As for the previous ......" Diaphragm

Pang Tong shook his head and said: "Before, our side suddenly raised troops, Cao Cao didn't have time to react, and there was no way to mobilize elite reinforcements such as Qingzhou soldiers, but this time, ...... Cao Cao is the attacker, and although we can't be considered defensive, it's not much worse. ”

"In such a situation, only by fighting a decisive battle with him can we defeat the enemy and sweep away the Central Plains."

After Pang Tong's explanation.

Liu Bei quickly understood the reason why the strategy of dividing troops did not work.

Obviously, the last time they launched a sudden attack, but this time, they had already fought Sun Quan.

On the other hand, Cao Cao had been preparing for a long time before this, and it could even be said that he was sharpening his sword.

This also means that once the troops are divided again, as long as Cao Cao puts some pressure on Guan Yu, Chen Feng must go to support. Diaphragm

Once such a scene occurred, Cao Cao could gather a large army to attack Liu Bei, or Runan, and eventually open a road to Jingzhou.

Even if it's just Jiang Xia, he can be regarded as a winner.

And once such a situation appears, Liu Bei's side will fall into a great dilemma.

After all, whether Cao Cao marched into Jiangxia, directly cut off the connection between Jiangdong and Jingzhou, or marched into Wancheng, it would lead to a big bad situation on Liu Bei's side.

and even the beginning and the end can't be taken into account.

Thinking of this, Liu Bei couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his head, and subconsciously looked at Chen Feng.

"As Shi Yuan said, once we divide our troops, it is possible to counteract them." Diaphragm

Chen Feng nodded and said, "On the other hand, if we merge all the way, only Yunchang will have a foreign army, whether it is from Wancheng or Jiangxia, Cao Cao will have to gather a large army. ”

"If he doesn't come, it will be even better, as long as we enter with a large army, we can easily take half of the Central Plains."

"At that point, he'll be the one who will be cut off."

"It's so dangerous to divide your troops!"

Liu Bei also nodded, and after thinking about it, he stood up directly and said: "From this moment on, who dares to say that the division of troops will be beheaded!" ”

He said this not because he changed his mentality after becoming stronger.

It's really because the army is about to go out now. Diaphragm

In other words, if he doesn't say that, it is likely that some people will still have other thoughts in their hearts.

More precisely.

The reason why Liu Bei said so ruthlessly was mainly to support Chen Feng and Pang Tong.

And with his rhetoric, others naturally didn't dare to say anything about the division of troops.

Therefore, regardless of what is going on inside, at least on the surface, everyone has reached a unified idea.

Under such a situation, the speed of the army's assembly is even much faster, and the speed of mobilizing grain and grass has also increased by more than 30%.

"Ziji, in your opinion, where should you start?" Diaphragm

Seeing that the army was about to set off, Liu Bei found Chen Feng again, or at Chen Feng's suggestion, asked him.

[Are you still worried about where to send troops from?] 】

[Let's use the inspection system!] 】

Listening to the voice in his head, Chen Feng calmly saluted Liu Bei, and then turned to point at Pang Tong, "Shiyuan has a view of the overall situation, and he thinks it is ...... He should be advised on this matter. ”

"Huh?"

Pang Tong was still thinking about where Chen Feng would suggest Liu Bei to send troops from, and whether it would be different from his own thoughts, but when he suddenly heard such words, the whole person was stunned.

"Shi Yuan thinks, where should I send troops from?" Diaphragm

Liu Bei did not hesitate at all, and directly asked Pang Tong.

"I think that since the lord is in Jiangxia now, why not start directly from Wusheng Pass?"

Speaking of this, Pang Tong took a deep breath, and then slowly explained: "First, it will take a lot of time on the way for us to mobilize a large army to go to Jingzhou, and second, although Wusheng Pass is small, it has always been the main way to enter the Central Plains. ”

"Okay, let's go from Wusheng Pass!"

Liu Bei did not hesitate and immediately issued a resolution.

Although he did this, he had a little bit of arbitrariness, but at such a time, no one would stand up no matter what.

What if the Northern Expedition failed? Diaphragm

When the time comes, who will carry this pot?

Didn't you see that even Chen Feng didn't speak, why did they stand up?

Afraid that the black pot will not fall on the head?

Of course, they didn't know that the reason why Chen Feng didn't say it was not because he wanted to maintain his own prestige, but because he had a probationary system and clearly knew who should make the suggestion.

However, this is naturally not humane.

In this regard, Chen Feng's idea is simple.

Other people can think whatever they like, it's none of his business. Diaphragm

After all, as long as he holds the probation system, it is enough to lay the foundation for this victory.

"Cao Cao openly usurped and was really a traitor...... As the king of Hanzhong, I have the responsibility and obligation to clear up such a traitor for the Han family! ”

Before setting out on the expedition, Liu Bei made a mobilization.

Although only high-ranking generals participated, since they had to pass on these words after comprehending the spirit, this mobilization was to be done anyway.

Simply put, let the soldiers know what they're fighting for!
