Chapter 209 Xi Yu commanded the army to conquer the land of Qingzhou, and Cao Cao wanted to conquer in person

Seeing that Xi Yu seemed to be shaken, Jia Xu continued, "My lord, this matter has little to do with me, I am at most the president of the design institute......

"However, this matter has a lot to do with you, even if you are not defeated, even if it is a stalemate, in the end, you will have to personally lead the battle......"

Hearing Jia Xu's words, Xi Yu secretly said in his heart: This old man's advice is a good hand, and he gets to the point.

It's just that this puts Xi Yu in a dilemma.

"According to what Mr. said, I can't refuse this matter of commanding the army......"

Seeing that Xi Yu was really shaken,

Jia Xu was overjoyed, and immediately took advantage of the victory to pursue him, and said to Xi Yu, "My lord, although you can rest assured that you will command the troops, the strategy formulated by the design institute this time will never let you personally go into battle to kill the enemy!" I can assure you of that! ”

Hearing this, Xi Yu said in a deep voice, "Look at your posture, I can't do it if I don't go......"

Jia Xu has long seen through the drama, they, the drama masters, are not unbearable to the bloody battles on the battlefield, nor are they the drama masters believe in the reincarnation of cause and effect, after all, there are no immortals on the battlefield.

Jia Xu has long understood that the fundamental problem is that they, the drama master, are really lazy and don't want to move.

In Jia Xu's view, as long as the drama master is willing to move, once he trains day and night, Qingzhou Lu Bu is not the opponent of the drama master at all.

Therefore, seeing that Xi Yu finally relented, Jia Xu immediately said, "In this way, my lord, you agree to lead the soldiers and horses to fight, then we can say okay, you must not regret it, after all, your status, if you don't believe in your words, how can you let me and others believe in you, right, my lord?" ”

Seeing this, Xi Yu couldn't refuse, so he had to nod and agree.

Jia Xu immediately gave Zhuge Liang and Guo Jia a sneak look, and the three of them left the government office immediately.

After coming to the door of the government office, Jia Xu was full of pride, and even stretched out his hand to Zhuge Liang and Guo Jia, and said, "Two, hurry up and give money, don't cheat!" ”

Zhuge Liang and Guo Jia shook their heads, they couldn't play tricks, and then took out several neatly stacked exquisite silk cloths.

Such a thing, in the eyes of Confucian literati, is more precious than gold.

Jia Xu took it and put it directly in his pocket, very proud.

Zhuge Liang felt a little helpless in his heart, "Hey, I'm still too young......"

Guo Jiake couldn't understand it very much, and wondered, "What is this matter today?" In the past, the lord couldn't persuade the drama lord, why is the drama lord willing to accept Jia Xu's advice today? ”

At this time, Zhuge Liang and Guo Jia kept their promise and gave the silk cloth to Jia Xu, and this process was clearly seen by Zhao Yun on the side.

"Two, have we accepted it?" Zhao Yun said with doubts.

Zhuge Liang, Jia Xu and the others nodded immediately, and Zhao Yun trembled and almost fell to the ground.

Guo Jia asked, "Hehe, Zilong, are you too shocked?" ”

Zhao Yun said to Jia Xu, "I am indeed shocked, I really want to know how the gentleman advises the adults." The last time you went to battle was nearly two years ago......"

Jia Xu walked to the door of the front yard, and then said lightly, "Today is different from the past, the lord treats people generously, how does he have soldiers and horses under his hands!" ”

"You can think about it, although the drama master is smart and wise, he is not a god. The reason why he didn't take charge of the army before was mainly because the lord held the power of life and death, but now as a pastor of Xuzhou, he has 100,000 soldiers and horses under his command, and the opportunities are all his soldiers. ”

"If you take life and death into your own hands, you will inevitably inform yourself that you have the responsibility to reduce the losses of soldiers and horses, so that it will be difficult for adults to shirk anymore."

Jia Xu paused and continued, "Now, the strength of the Qingzhou soldiers under the command of the adults is stronger than the Danyang soldiers and stronger than the Wancheng soldiers, and the Qingzhou soldiers of the adults are stronger than the Danyang soldiers, stronger than the Wancheng soldiers, and naturally stronger than Yuan Shao's Jizhou soldiers. ”

"As for Lu Bu's Bingzhou Tiger Wolves, because they have been away for many years and are old and old, they are very tired one by one, and their combat strength is seriously insufficient."

"Here, maybe the troops in these places have already been adjusted, if this is the case, the drama master only needs to sit in the army, and there is no need to go into battle to kill the enemy, this matter is enough to encourage the blood of the Qingzhou soldiers."

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang and Guo Jia glanced at each other, and both of them nodded again and again.

So what is the harm of this character......

"How's this character?"

Zhao Yun said with a smile: "This character is very good, and it is precisely for this reason that we are willing to follow the drama to the death and laugh at the work of dogs and horses for you." ”

"Yes......" Guo Jia nodded approvingly.

The operational policy and action were properly arranged, the food and grass were sufficient, and how to march and fight was now the means of a group of strategists.

……

198, winter.

The snow is falling, and the white bike walks in the mountains of Xuzhou.

The commander of this army is General Huang, who has a beard all over his mouth.

Huang Zhong now has a beard covering the corners of his mouth and chin, and he has grown a year older, but the muscle lines on his body are better every year.

Huang Zhong understands very well that this is a training system that is proud of Xiyu, as long as you exercise hard, it is very easy to grow muscles.

As for the white horses, they can breathe long, and they can gallop in the ice and snow, and they don't have much toil.

This time it was all thanks to the "Tai Chi method".

Today, in the military camp of Xi Yu, there are two sets of fitness martial arts, one of which is Taijiquan and the other is Wufowl Opera.

The 500 soldiers and horses of the baggage battalion, and even the 2,500 Qingzhou soldiers under the command of the first to come to Guishun Opera, can now be proficient in playing the 'Taijiquan method'.

But none of the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses who joined behind have yet learned.

At this moment, the place where the white horsemen went was in the mountains near Qingzhou, and they came here to investigate all the details, to investigate whether there was an impact during the winter snowfall period, and if so, what the impact would be.

Now, a month passes quickly, and the terrain changes with the seasons.

This place, Dahyeon Mountain.

The border territory of Qingzhou is a mutual defensive trend, Qingzhou is defending Jizhou, Yanzhou and Xuzhou are defending Qingzhou, so in terms of geographical location, Xiyu has a unique advantage.

Jizhou is located in the Great Plain of Hebei, with the strongest economic strength and the largest population, so that the Yellow River and Jishui were taken away by Qingzhou.

Because Xuzhou and Yanzhou are not as rich as Qingzhou, the southern part of the Qingzhou Peninsula is "narrow and only allows one track" of the Qinan Tianwei Daxian Mountain fell into the hands of Xuzhou, and the Taishan Stone in the west fell into the hands of Yanzhou.

In the end, Xi Yu chose to camp in Dahyeon Mountain.

Because this is the Taishan Mountain Range, coupled with the natural danger of Daxian Mountain, the two have become a natural barrier against Qingzhou's invasion.

What's more important is that Xi Yu has occupied the only exit from the natural insurance.

Before Xi Yu's arrival, this place was originally garrisoned by Tibetan tyrants, and as soon as Tibetan tyrants heard that Xi Yu was coming, they immediately personally led their troops to go, wanting to fight with Xi Yu.

The Tibetan tyrant was originally a cavalry lieutenant under Tao Qian, who was responsible for recruiting soldiers to fight against the Yellow Turban Army.

After Xuzhou was obtained by Cao Cao, the Tibetan tyrant and Sun Guan, Yin Li and others supported troops and stationed them in Kaiyang, dominating one side and not participating in any other princely groups.

Xi Yu already knew about the Tibetan tyrant, and after arriving in Kaiyang, he led Dian Wei, Zhao Yun and other 500 soldiers of the heavy battalion to the camp where the Tibetan tyrant was located.

However, after a stick of incense, the Tibetan tyrant bowed his head and directly handed over all the military power near Daxian Mountain, and he did not dare to rebel at all.

At this moment, in the Kaiyang Bureau, Zang Ba toasted Xi Yu and laughed loudly, "Haha, my lord is really not an ordinary person, I will swear to follow him in the future, my lord, you are the lord of my Tibetan tyrant!" ”

But the smile of the Tibetan tyrant was very stiff.

Before this, Zangba thought that Xi Yu was just a civil official, and it was impossible to be as powerful as the legend, so he didn't care about the rumors about Xi Yu, and when he talked to Xi Yu, his tone was very domineering and rude.

It was precisely because the Tibetan tyrant despised Xi Yu that he didn't say a few words, and he was beaten by a general Wei beside Xi Yu.

Xi Yu personally commanded the troops this time, so he naturally wanted to stand up for his authority, and the Tibetan tyrant was rude, how could Xi Yu be spared, and he also gave the Tibetan tyrant a violent attack.

The domineering aura directly shattered the nose bones of the Tibetan Ba, and the Tibetan Ba wanted to protect his nose with his hands, but his hands were almost thrown away by Xi Yu.

In the end, Xi Yu directly carried Si Ding, who was a heavy kilogram with one hand, stood in front of him unwaveringly, and said in a deep voice, "Zangba, have you surrendered to me?" ”

The Tibetan tyrant was frightened at that time, if he was hit by that ding, he would definitely be crushed, the matter has come to this point, how dare the Tibetan tyrant not want to.

At this time, Zangba poured a full wine for Xi Yu, only felt that his nose hurt, he toasted to Xi Yu very respectfully, "My lord, I have been stationed in Kaiyang for a long time, Qingzhou Lu Bu has tried to break through Daxian Mountain many times and invade the land of Xuzhou, but all of them have been successfully intercepted by me. ”

"It's such a dangerous day, I will definitely stop Lu Bu...... Hiss ......"

Suddenly, there was an unbearable pain in Zangba's nose, and soon, the sharp pain swept through his body, Zangba's shoulders couldn't help but tremble, and he felt snot flowing from his nose......

Xi Yu did not pay attention to the Tibetan tyrant at this time, but ate his meal happily, and the sitting posture of the golden knife across the horse was not the temperament of Confucianism at all.

After Xi Yu swallowed a mouthful of rice, he said to the Tibetan tyrant, "You are stationed in Kaiyang to resist Lu Bu in Qingzhou, of course, you have worked hard, and now I will make you the prime minister of Langya and lead the land of Langya." ”

"When I seize Qingzhou, I will immediately ask for a reward for your merits, and it will not be difficult to increase the rank of official."

Hearing this, Zang Ba was flattered and very excited, bowed deeply to Xi Yu, and sniffed hard, "Ah...... My lord...... Thank you, sir!! ”

After that, the Tibetan tyrant secretly glanced at the kind of mighty general in front of Xi Yu, and was very afraid and amazed in his heart: Xuzhou's stability in the past few years is all due to the policy of the drama master to implement benevolent government.

Implement the policy of benevolent government, win the hearts of the people, and naturally live and work in peace and contentment, and the drama master will definitely be a wise lord who respects the hearts of the people, and if I sincerely belong to him, it can be regarded as standing on the right path.

And not the way of the king.

After thinking about it, Xi Yu was respectful again, bowed deeply to Xi Yu, and said in a deep voice, "Hiss...... From now on, I, Zang Ba, sincerely follow the drama master, and you are the lord of my Tibetan hegemony! ”

……

"What? Fengyi is now in Langya?! ”

At this time, in the Prime Minister's Mansion of Xuchang, Cao Cao looked at the person who came to report in disbelief.

Today, Cao Cao's strategist Xun Yu got a report from Xuzhou.

After the autumn harvest, Xi Yu in Xuzhou grain and grass two million stones, at the same time, Xi Yu opened a warehouse to release grain, reduce taxes, support commercial development, and now, the total number of caravans in Xuzhou city compared with before, increased several times.

At the same time, proud of Huang Chengyan, Gao Shuang, Pang Tong, Sima Hui and other celebrities lobbied to open the way, Jingzhou opened the caravan channel, and accepted a large number of commercial goods from Xuzhou and Yangzhou North, such as grains and farming things, and some people even began to sell Xuzhou's idle farming tools.

Xuzhou City also earned a lot of money to finance armaments, and now Xuzhou City is unspeakably rich.

Based on this, Xi Yu commanded 80,000 troops and went north to build a grain station, transport the grain to various grain stations, and store it in a decentralized manner, so as to facilitate the allocation at any time and avoid being burned by the enemy in one fell swoop.

According to the war report, Xi Yu has already commanded troops to capture Kaiyang and Langya Kingdom, and is preparing to go to Daxian Mountain, aiming directly at the land of Qingzhou.

After listening to the battle report, Xun Yu said, "Qingzhou Lu Bu has an old grudge with Xi Yu. ”

"Lu Bu escaped from Xi Yu before, at that time, if Lu Bu didn't take the initiative to provoke Xi Yu, but attacked our Yanzhou, now this Yanzhou City is afraid that it has already been owned by Lu Bu."

Cao Cao agreed with Xun Yu's words very much, and asked Xun Yu, "Wen Ruo's words are very reasonable, in your opinion, now if Xi Yu attacks Qingzhou Lu Bu, what are the odds?" ”

Xun Yu thought for a moment, was very embarrassed, shook his head and said, "Lord, with all due respect, it is difficult for me to speculate on the outcome of this war......

"After all, my lord, you also know that Fengyi rarely commands troops to fight, and there has been no war for two years now, if a military general wants to maintain his combat strength, he needs to practice in the barracks at all times, but Fengyi is not like this."

Xun Yu added, "My lord, as far as I know, in the past two years, Fengyi has been implementing the policy of benevolent government except for the study of the way of tea art...... As for the matter of commanding and training troops......"

Although Xun Yu did not finish speaking, the meaning of his words was very clear: he was not optimistic about the result of Xi Yu's attack on Lu Bu in Qingzhou.

Cao Cao naturally understood the meaning of Xun Yu's words, and said in a deep voice, "What Wen Ruo said is reasonable, but it is really a good strategy to get rid of it!" ”

Previously, Cao Cao had been struggling with how to win over Lu Bu.

Cao Cao already knew that there would be a battle with Yuan Shao, and both he and Yuan Shao had already begun to plan for it.

Cao Cao got the news that in recent months, Yuan Shao's son Yuan Tan had entered Qingzhou several times to negotiate with LΓΌ Bu.

And Qingzhou Lu Bu had to plan a way back after tying up the celebrity Kong Rong.

Although Lu Bu's internal affairs have been stable, there has been no major breakthrough, however, Qingzhou is a rich land, and there are many scholar classes, with the matter of Kong Rong, these scholars can only helplessly support Lu Bu in order not to be killed by Lu Bu.

And those families of the tycoons among the common people also did not dare to refuse to pay for armaments.

Therefore, Cao Cao thought that it would be difficult to attack Qingzhou by force and take LΓΌ Bu, so Cao Cao wanted to win over LΓΌ Bu rather than start a war.

But Cao Cao really didn't expect that Xi Yu would take the initiative to attack the land of Qingzhou.

"My lord, Fengyi commanded 80,000 soldiers and horses to attack Qingzhou in the north, if Lu Bu responds to the battle, I am afraid that Yuan Shao will also use troops, in my opinion, we must not sit idly by in this matter."

Cao Cao nodded in response, "Now that the soldiers, horses, grain and grass are sufficient, Fengyi has sent troops, quickly pass on my order, and order Cao Ren to guard Mount Tai, set off from the danger, lead 40,000 elite horsemen, and go to help Fengyi!" ”

However, as soon as Cao Cao's voice fell, Xi Zhicai suddenly hurriedly reported, "Lord! ”

"I just came back from the barracks, and General Xiahoudun informed me that General Cao Ren came to report that he had sent 50,000 troops to Mount Tai to help Lord Xi attack Qingzhou!"

Cao Cao was slightly surprised, "Huh? Cao Ren has already sent troops to Fengyi to rendezvous? ”

Suddenly, Cao Cao secretly rejoiced in Cao Ren's wisdom in his heart, and then laughed loudly, "Haha...... Very good, Zixiao's move surprised me, I didn't expect him to have such a strategy and determination now! ”

Cao Cao immediately changed his previous order and said, "Immediately pass on my order, and order Xiahou to send troops to Baima and Yanjin to build warships, cavalry, camps, and passes, and if Yuan Shao dares to send troops and use force, I will fight immediately!" ”

"My lord, if we use troops on such a large scale, we have to guard against a thief!"

After Cao Cao's plan was announced, Xun Yu immediately thought of another problem that would arise.

"Who?" Cao Cao asked, but then thought of someone, "But Liu Bei of Xinye?" ”

"No, the person who must be guarded against is Chang'an Li Dao!"

Hearing this, Cao Cao's heart sank, so to speak, then you have to guard against these two people!

"Lord, now the minister wants to recommend one person, except for Fengyi, he can't prevent Li Dao."

Cao Cao asked, "Who are you talking about?" ”

"Zhong Xuan!" Xun Yu was very sure.

As soon as Xun Yu's words came out, the drama on the side was shocked, and Cao Cao fell into deep thought, "Zhong Xuan? ”

Cao Cao knows that Xun Yu has a unique vision and is good at knowing people, and Xi Yu was recommended by Xun Yu.

Xun Yu replied, "Zhong Yu is highly respected, and has a deep personal relationship with Li Dao, Guo Yan and others, and his thoughts have a deep influence on Li Dao, and although Ma Teng Han Sui and other generals gradually became independent, they are still quite convinced of Zhong Dao. ”

"Therefore, if the lord sends Zhong Xuan to Guanzhong this time, with his own strength, he will definitely make the princes outside the Guanzhong dare not act rashly, in this way, the overall situation can be determined!"

Cao Cao knew that Xun Yu and Zhong Yu had a deep personal relationship, and Zhong Yu also spoke for Xi Yu many times and supported Xi Yu's deviant school-running strategy, which also made Cao Cao satisfied with Zhong Yu.

Moreover, Cao Cao was also well aware of Zhong Xuan's ability, fame, and deterrent power to Li Dao.

Cao Cao pondered for a moment, then said, "Okay...... Just as you say! ”

He has always pursued: do not use suspicious people, but do not suspect them.

"Pass my order, immediately promote Zhong Xuan to serve in the middle of the service, supervise the princes in Guanzhong, and after I personally go to the north to fight, Zhong Xuan will preside over the affairs in the rear!"

Hearing this, Xun Yu suddenly raised his head, very shocked, "Your lord...... Do you remember that Fengyi advised you...... Steady, don't wave? ”

"Of course I remember, but I decided this time, where to wave?" Cao Cao stared at Xun Yu and said in a deep voice, "This battle is bound to win, I will definitely go to the battlefield to see the heroic posture of Fengyi in battle!" ”

"Lord, please think twice about this matter! If the lord insists on going, he must let the second prince stay in Xuchang, otherwise, he is very worried about the clan relatives......"

Hearing this, Cao Cao secretly said in his heart: The clan relatives really have to guard against it.

He knew very well that the people of the clan were arrogant and domineering, and he could suppress the clan, but if he and his descendants were not in Xuchang, he was indeed afraid of heresy.
